Chapter 154: The Mysterious Dading
After Shi Hu finished speaking, he walked towards the outside of Hongguang Pavilion, Shi Shi and Liang County Lord and his wife hurriedly stood aside, letting Shi Hu go first, Liu Guifei followed closely behind Shi Hu, and when he walked past Liang County Lord, the two women invariably glanced at each other, the difference was that Liu Guifei's eyes were full of hostility, and Liang County Lord was still a peaceful demeanor. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Liu Guifei snorted coldly, and then walked out of Hongguang Pavilion. Shi Shi and his wife looked at each other for a moment, did not speak, and left.
Shi Hu walked into the hall with a smile, and the officials stood up one after another, and when Shi Hu sat on the main seat, the officials knelt down and worshipped together: "Congratulations to Your Majesty on his birthday!" Long live our emperor! Banzai! Hooray! ”
The officials shouted three times in a row and kowtowed three times in a row.
"Let's all be flat." Shi Hu raised his hand and showed a rare smile to the officials.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Shi Hu suddenly looked around, and then asked Lu An, "Where did Shi Yong go?" He is on duty at this hour every day, and today is my birthday, and he is missing? ”
Lu An hurriedly said: "Back to Your Majesty, just now the slave asked the guard at the door, and the guard said that the commander asked him to act on behalf of His Majesty, saying that he had prepared a big gift for His Majesty, so it would take a while to rush over." ”
Shi Hu thought he had misheard, and frowned at the side of his ear and asked, "What did you say?" Shi Yong prepared a big gift for me? Hey, that's a bit new! ”
Shi Hu smiled to himself, and asked again, "Do you know what the gift is?" ”
Lu An shook his head and said, "The minions don't know ...... either"
Gao Shangzhi, who was sitting below, naturally understood what was going on, and he raised his head to look at Shi Jian, who was sitting in the opposite corner, and found that he was closing his eyes, not knowing what he was thinking.
"Your Majesty, His Royal Highness King Qing will transfer something to Weichen before leaving Beijing, and ask Weichen to dedicate it to His Majesty on His Majesty's birthday." You Jian of the military department stood up and saluted Shi Hu and said.
"Oh? What is it? Shi Hu asked.
"This thing is an artifact in the world, and Wei Chen will order someone to bring this thing to the main hall." You Jian deliberately left a little suspense.
"Hurry up, let someone bring it up." Shi Hu said with some expectation.
"Yes!" You Jian nodded, then walked outside the main hall, gave a few words to the forbidden army at the door, and returned to the main hall.
"Where's the stuff?" Shi Hu asked.
"Your Majesty, wait, this is coming." You Jian said unhurriedly.
A moment later, a rhythmic trumpet sound came from outside the main hall: "Hey! Hey! Hey! ”
A few ministers leaning on the seats at the door couldn't help but poke their heads out to see what it was.
When Shi Hu heard this, he also stood up, eager to tiptoe to see what was strange on it. After a while, seven or eight forbidden soldiers came in carrying a large man, covered with a large red cloth.
"Your Majesty, please look!" You Jian said, waving his hand and lifting the red cloth.
When the red cloth was lifted, everyone's eyes were fixed on the mysterious thing, including Shi Jian, who had been sitting in the corner with his eyes closed.
"Could this be the artifact of one of the legendary Dayu Nine Dings?" A minister asked in surprise.
Although Shi Hu is a Hu person, he has also heard about the ancient Jiuding, and when he saw someone say that this thing is the legendary Dading, he couldn't help but hurriedly walked down the steps and stepped forward to observe carefully.
"You all come over to see, is this tripod the legendary tripod?" Shi Hu beckoned to everyone.
When the ministers heard Shi Hu's order, they immediately surrounded them, especially those Han ministers, they were irresistible to these things in their bones, which represented the monarch's power and heavenly endowment, majesty and orthodoxy, and the status of Jiuding was no less than the jade seal of the country.
The ministers watched around Dading for a long time, you said a word to me, and muttered for a long time, but no one said why.
"Do you see anything? Is this the legendary Ding? Shi Hu looked at the group of literati and asked.
"Your Majesty, this Jiuding rumor has not known what happened after the fall of the Qin Dynasty, it has always been a legendary thing, we have not seen it, we really can't be sure if this is the legendary Dayu Ding." A minister who looks like a Han said.
"You Han people still claim to have read thousands of books, what bullshit? Usually it is the Tao, which allows you to see if it is your ancestor's thing, and you will not recognize it! Roll on! Shi Hu scolded impatiently.
The man was scolded by Shi Hu and didn't dare to speak, so he quickly retreated and stood behind the crowd.
"It's not difficult to identify whether it is the legendary Jiuding." Suddenly, a voice was heard from the crowd.
Everyone turned their heads to look for who it was, only to find that this sentence was said by Shi Jian just now.
Shi Hu frowned slightly, he didn't expect that this usually low-key Shi Jian, who couldn't be more low-key, would suddenly speak in front of the ministers.
"Third child, you mean you know how to identify?" Shi Hu didn't quite believe that Shi Jian understood this.
Shi Jian pretended to be low-key, and said in a very restrained tone: "Erchen remembers that it is recorded in the book that Dayu divided the world into Kyushu, and the state set up pastors, and cast Jiuding under Jingshan with the gold of Kyushu pastor's tribute, symbolizing the four seas and Kyushu, and the world is one. When the Jiuding was cast, Dayu ordered people to engrave the image of the charm on the Jiuding, so that people could be vigilant and prevent being harmed, and engraved the famous mountains and rivers of Kyushu on the Ding, so it became a symbol of the supreme royal power. Therefore, Erchen guessed that if you want to verify whether this tripod is a legendary thing, you only need to check whether there is a pattern of ghosts or famous mountains and rivers on the tripod. ”
"Yuanzhi, you read poetry and books, tell me, is that the case?" Shi Hu asked Liu Yuanzhi, who was standing on the side.
Liu Yuanzhi arched his hand and said: "Back to Your Majesty, what His Majesty King Ning said is indeed consistent with the record in the book, and this statement should be credible." ”
"Come, you all see, I'm dazzled." Shi Hu said, beckoning everyone to observe again.
Liu Yuanzhi stepped forward and stretched out his hand to carefully touch the lines of this bronze tripod, and the other ministers were also pointing fingers and talking endlessly out of curiosity.
Shi Hu'an sat back in his seat peacefully, drinking wine while watching the ministers below arguing.
Liu Yuanzhi looked up at Shi Jian standing in the crowd, then stood up and saluted respectfully and asked, "Your Royal Highness King Ning, I don't know what you think of this Ding?" ”
Shi Jian pretended to be a little nervous and waved his hand again and again, and said: "I don't dare to say this, I just saw such a record in the book, I think how the mountains and rivers are going, maybe it is better to consult Xihuahou, Xihuahou has been leading troops to fight all year round, and he must know the direction of mountains and rivers in various places very well, so it is better to let Xihuahou take a look." ”
As soon as Shi Jian's words fell, everyone's eyes immediately shifted to Shi Zhan, who had been silent.
Shi Zhanzheng clasped his hands on his chest, saw everyone looking at him, smiled faintly, and said: "I have seen it just now, this tripod is engraved with the trend of mountains and rivers in Youzhou. ”
"What does Master Hou mean is that this Ding is real?" Liu Yuanzhi asked.
Shi Zhan frowned slightly, looked at Liu Yuanzhi, and said with a little seriousness: "Lord Liu, what I just said is that this tripod is indeed engraved with the trend of mountains and rivers in Youzhou, but I didn't say whether this tripod is true or false. ”
"This ......" Liu Yuanzhi seemed irrefutable with Shi Zhan's words, so he could only reluctantly continue to study with the people around him.
"Have you researched it?" Shi Hu asked.
"Your Majesty, the lines on this tripod are basically the same as the description in the legend, but it is difficult to distinguish between true and false." Liu Yuanzhi said.
You Jian was a little unhappy, and said, "Lord Liu, what does it mean that it is difficult to distinguish between truth and falsehood? Do you mean that His Royal Highness King Qing came over with a fake one to fool His Majesty? ”
"Lord You, please pay attention to your wording, when did I say that this tribute that His Royal Highness King Qing dedicated to His Majesty is fake? I'm just talking about the facts, saying that it's hard to tell if it's true or false. Lord You, it seems that you are sure that this tripod is real, so since you are so sure that this tripod is one of the nine tripods cast by Dayu back then, it is better to come up with evidence, so that I can wait to learn and learn, and be taught. Liu Yuanzhi said solemnly to You Jian.
"You are using strong words, since the content engraved on Ding's body is consistent with the record in the book, why is it fake?" You Jian said unconvinced.
