It is a ritual of ordering officials and knights in the Spring and Autumn Period, which can be used for the Son of Heaven to divide the princes, or it can be used for the princes to divide the princes.

As early as ten days ago, after learning that the Marquis of Jin and the Marquis of Wei had agreed to Zhen Yi's entry into Lu, Zhao Wuxian immediately sent people to Qufu the ritual utensils in the temples of Zhen and Liqiu, as a symbol of dedication to the Lu State. However, the Lu State Office and Sanhuan are all in power, and the efficiency of today's work is not high, and it is not until today that Lu Hou's envoy finally arrived in Xiaqiu.

The master of ceremonies is a young scholar, in his twenties, he has a high crown and a broad belt, a faint triangular beard under his chin, and his eyes are transparent, and he stares curiously at Zhao Wuxian who went out of the city to greet him from a distance.

When they reached ten steps, the two of them bowed to each other, and the messenger of the command preemptively said.

"Lu Zhi's master of ceremonies has seen Zhao Zi."

"The name of the doctor who has been admired for a long time is finally seen today."

Zifu He, Wuxian heard Zigong talk about this person as early as when he was in Taoyi, and called him one of the young talents of the Lu State, and he can be so praised by Zigong, which shows that this person is extraordinary.

Zifu comes from Meng's, Meng Yibo's word Zifu, and his descendants take the word as the clan. Zifu He is eloquent, he became the master of ceremonies of the pedestrian department at a young age, and now he is appointed as the messenger of Zhao Wuxian as the envoy of Zhen and Dr. Liqiu.

It is said that he also had close contacts with the highly respected celebrities of Lu Guode, Zhongdu Zai Kongqiu, and also made friends with Kongqiu's disciples Zilu, Yan Hui and others, and also had a good relationship with Zigong.

After a few words of greeting, the two entered the city hand in hand, because Zhao Wuxian was the lord of Zigong, so Zifu He was very friendly to him. Although he had never been to Xiaqiu, he was very familiar with this place, and many allusions came easily.

Looking at the tall walls of Liqiu and the people who greeted him, Zifu couldn't help but sigh: "The Qi people take this city as a base. Bullying the western contempt of the Lu State for a hundred years, today thanks to the power of the Jin State Zhongjun Zuo and Zhao Zi, this thorn was pulled out. After tomorrow, this will officially be the feudal territory of the Lu State. Zhao Zi's territory is gone. ”

Wuxian said modestly: "Zifu Zi praises, and the ceremony of destiny will be held tomorrow." Please come with me to the Yi Temple to feast and rest, and get to know the local clansmen. ”

Because the local witch Zhu divination knew that the second day was an auspicious day, the ordination ceremony had to wait until the next day, and by the way, Zhang Mengtan of Zhen Yi could also wait for Zhen Yi's children to come to watch the ceremony.

That night, the Yan feasted happily, the local nobles, down to the common people, have basically submitted to the shirtless, and Zifu He is also good at dancing with long sleeves at the banquet. Sometimes reciting psalms, sometimes dancing with hands, it suddenly became the center of the feast.

Only some of the Wu clan's branches were a little embarrassed because the Wu Ya Brigade was still under house arrest, and they were just depressed and drinking sullen wine in the corner.

When he was drunk, Zifu He danced a song and returned to sit down beside Wuxian, but suddenly sighed at Zhao Wuxian.

"Why is Zifuzi sighing? But I didn't entertain well. Zhao Wuxian put down the wine that was about to be toasted, and turned sideways to ask him for advice.

Zifu He smiled hesitantly: "Without him, I just feel sorry for Zhao Zi." ”

"Pity? Why is it a pity, please also ask Zifu Ziming to say. ”

Zifu He looked at the people around him, and stopped talking. Implying that the shirtless moved elsewhere to talk about it in detail.

A moment later, in a curtain where the erection and concubines were repulsed, but Mucha was close to him. Zhao Wuxian straightened out his clothes, looked at Zifu He and asked: "It's not in the dark room, what does Zifuzi have to say to me tonight?" ”

Zifu He raised his wide sleeves high, and saluted Wuxian: "I'm ashamed, what a pity is that Zhao Zi, as a nobleman of the Zhao family, a thousand-year-old clan, has spread his reputation for benevolence and virtue throughout the Central Plains, and now he is about to become a doctor in Liangyi." There are nearly 1,000 tigers under his command, so why should he be the wings of the Yang Tiger? ”

He is a pearl covered with dust. The beautiful woman looked at Wuxian with the eyes of a thief, and she was quite sorry.

Zhao Wuxian smiled dumbly: "What does Zifuzi mean?" When did I become a henchman of the Yang Tigers? ”

Zifu He looked at Zhao Wuxian with blazing eyes and said, "There are rumors that Zhao Zi is in the Song Dynasty. once accepted Yanghu's invitation, and at the Wazhi meeting, Yanghu shouted for Zhao Zi's entry into Lu, implying that the three secretaries of Lu agreed to enter Lu this time, isn't it to be a party with Yanghu? ””

Zhao Wuxian groaned slightly, he knew that Zifu He had a close relationship with the Meng family, and he became a strategic officer, which was also because of the Meng family's strong support, this time he came to make a temptation, it must also be the meaning of the Meng family!

After waiting for a while, the main dish of the banquet finally came up!

So he said unhappily: "Where did Zifuzi go, I was expelled from the Jin Kingdom, exiled to Pushang, and there was nothing to do about it between Song Caowei, although Yanghu did invite me to Lu, and promised to give a thousand households." But in fact, Zhen Yi was won by myself, and Liqiu was entrusted with the military prestige of my father in the Jin Kingdom, what does it have to do with his Yang Tiger? ”

"As for the internal strife in the country of Lu, how do I know? Yang Hu probably wants to please my father and the Jin Kingdom. Although Wuxian is a down-and-out deceased, he also has a bit of the arrogance of the son, how can he serve a courtier in turn? On the eve of this fate, Zifu Zixiu disturbed his interest. ”

Zifu rolled his eyes after listening, and then he restrained his aggressive question, and bowed down with a smile: "I see, why did he talk too much after drinking, and asked Zhao Zi to atone for his sins." ”

In fact, Zifu He was very sober, and it was because his disciples praised Zhao Wuxian that he would actively strive for the position of messenger and find an opportunity to try his words.

Although there are many different versions of the rumors, Zifu He knows that Zhen Yi's tough battle of winning more with less really happened. Now Zhao Wuxian is a doctor in Liangyi, with a population of 30,000, who can recruit a division of people, and is also a new force that plays a pivotal role in the western disdain of the Lu State.

If Zhao Wuxian was co-opted by Yang Hu and became his henchman after entering Lu, it would be a little more difficult for Sanhuan to turn over!

However, since Zhao Wuxian flatly denied the relationship with Yang Hu, even if he was telling a lie, it showed that this person did not completely surrender to Yang Hu, but was observing the situation in Lu State. After leading him to Qufu, he may be able to rely on his own eloquence and pull him into Meng's camp.

So Zifu He whispered: "He and Zhao Zi hit it off at first sight, so I was worried about Zhao Zi's situation." Yang Hu is just a district Ji Zai, but he vainly tries to take charge of the politics of Lu State, and he is different from top to bottom. Confucius said that the courtiers will carry out the country's life, and the three generations will not lose it. Yang Hu only ruled the Lu State for three years. has been deeply disgusted by the Chinese people, please ask the doctor to come to Qufu not to help the yang goods to rebel, tarnishing his reputation! ”

Zhao Wuxian nodded very seriously. As he said in his correspondence with Yanghu, he immediately summoned Zhang Mengtan, who had just arrived in Xiaqiu, after Yan Fang dispersed that night. Discuss the matter with him.

Zhang Mengtan's conclusion was: "Within this year, Lu will change!" ”

"Now although the Ji family and uncle and grandson are set aside, the Meng family is still stable, Yang Hu has subverted the heart of Sanhuan for a long time, and the Meng family still has the strength to protect himself and fight back, so he must be unwilling in his heart.

The country of Lu is unstable. This was expected before he talked to Zhang Meng, but he didn't expect it to be so fast, and after Yang Hu showed goodwill, Meng immediately sent someone to test it.

Zhao Wuxian nodded slightly, and put his hands together, one left and one right: "One side is Yang Hu and his henchmen, and the other side is the old Sanhuan clan headed by the Meng family, if the two sides of the coup are merged, we can choose the side that can get the most benefits!" ”

He also entrusted the government affairs to Zhang Mengtan by the way: "After the order, I will go to Qufu with Zifu to complete the ceremony, pay allegiance to the Lu Hou, and at the same time observe the intricate forces of the Lu State nearby." The political affairs of the two towns are entrusted to Zhang Zi! ”

Zhang Mengtan was a little melancholy: "After the burning of the city, the two towns have been very stable, and the only unstable factor is that. It's the Wu clan of Xiaqiu......"

Although the ransom of the Wu clan has been delivered, how to deal with the former Doctor Qiuqiu and more than 100 of his clansmen still has to wait for Zhao Wuxian's final decision.

Thinking of the information sent by the people who had been monitoring the Wu clan in the past few days, Zhao Wuxian sneered: "The head of the Wu clan is still in the cage, and the children dare to collude with the Gaotang Chen clan and want to mess with my Xiaqiu, I have already thought of a way, and I will definitely be able to solve this matter before leaving!" ”

……

On the second day, outside the temple of the Liqiu Society.

It is different from the doctor of Jin Guoyi, who can be exchanged at any time. The state of Lu still retains a relatively primitive feudal system, and the doctor of Yi involves granting land and people. Therefore, the ceremony should be more complex and solemn.

A mound up to Zhangyu has been set up at the temple where the Chinese people of Liqiu gathered, and the nobles of Zhen and Liqiu and the representatives of the Chinese people in Lilu were allowed to come to watch the ceremony.

But I saw that Zifu He was wearing a solemn and elegant dress. A ceremony was held for Zhao Wuxian.

As the so-called nine lives of Uncle Hou, seven lives of princes, five lives of Qing, and three lives of doctors, the three lives are the life service, the car flag, and the gift device.

Different levels of titles have different costumes, Zhao Wuxian today wears a Xuan crown, wears a "not greedy" jade, wears a famous sword on his waist, and wears a deep coat with algae fire patterns for doctors. The smooth Lu Min is embroidered with blue algae and red flame-shaped patterns, which makes people sincerely admire a gentleman when they see it.

Then there was the three rides of the horse and the chariot with the doctor's banner, and the doctor was given a full set of ritual utensils.

The tripod is the head of the ring ear claw pattern hoof foot ascending tripod, the animal hoof-shaped three-legged, tripod ear, the belly of the instrument is decorated with a correct pattern and a twisted pan claw pattern.

It is the face of the beast with standing ears, the heel of the foot is the solemn animal face pattern of high relief, and the main body is the fine and complicated pattern of the beast, the head and tail intersect and the group of flies are entangled.

In addition, there are pots, birds, etc., which are the doctor's full set of belongings, which are engraved with Zhao Wuxian's name, as well as the words "children and grandchildren will always be used".

Finally, after offering the sacrificial livestock, Zifu He announced the policy written by Lu Hou himself in Yayin:

"Jingtianzi once said that the husband has honors but not waste, and he has achievements and carries them, and he is dedicated to the soil, caress it with Yi tools, and uses it with car clothes, and Ming with articles. Zitai has worked hard in the Jin Kingdom, and the few people have forgotten it, giving Ru Zhen and the land of the hill, and the old Xun is the old one! ”

After Zifu He handed over this policy to Zhao Wuxian, he completed the process of giving the soil, and the ceremony ended here.

After Zhao Wuxian took over the book and Yugui, he looked up at the sky under the cheers of the military officials, military soldiers, and nobles.

It was the beginning of August, the sky was clear, and only a few clouds were carefully hiding on the edge, and on the huge blue sky, it seemed that there was the eye of the Emperor of Heaven watching the city of Xiaqiu, looking at Zhao Wuxian.

He also raised the book and Yugui in his hand, which was stained with a trace of sacred meaning, and his heart, which he thought had been calm, jumped up involuntarily.

What was Zhao Xiangzi doing when he was fifteen years old? Probably still a low-key and gloomy concubine hiding under Zhao Ying's huge wings, and low-key and gloomy at the end of Yan Fang, right?

But although Zhao Wuxian has experienced all kinds of twists and turns, he has become the lord of the two towns, with nearly a thousand soldiers under his command, and has the capital to settle down in troubled times, and is running the third cave of the cunning rabbit for the Zhao family.

Moreover, all of his things have been incorporated into the system of etiquette and law, and he will slowly grow and grow in the dove's nest of the Lu country, and finally complete his own transformation! (To be continued)
