Thank you for the reward of book friend Xiangrui 1!

Liuqing tidied up his appearance, got into the car with his own thoughts, and drove slowly towards the palace, they were allowed to enter by car by the Marquis of Jin, Le Qi, as the envoy of the Song Dynasty, also had this privilege, and the doctors had to follow the car and walk slowly.

It was only then that Le Qi saw the true appearance of the interior of this unparalleled palace.

I saw that the whole palace is sitting in the direction of the north and facing south, the front is facing the back, and the wide avenue paved with bluestone slabs goes straight to the main hall.

On the front, the high platform made of stone foundation and rammed earth stands there without decoration, adding a lot of solemnity and majesty out of thin air, which was built in the era of Jin Mourning Gong, full of high-spirited masculine colors, like a warrior dancing ten thousand dances.

On both sides of the avenue, there are not only the "high hall" with grand space, but also the "curved house" connected by twists and turns, the "Yuyu" that goes deep and far, and the small and exquisite "south room", all of which are high eaves and flying corners. The tile with the cloud pattern and the animal face pattern, and the rui beast with pottery and stone sculptures.

There are covered bridges between the high-rise buildings, and the eaves and paintings are tied together like colorful exercises, most of these are newly built buildings in the Jin Pinggong era, gorgeous and feminine, like the glamorous dance of Zheng Wei women.

Le Qi heard that in the spring of the eighth year of the reign of Jin Pinggong, when the construction of the Qiqi Palace was carried out, in the place of Wei Yu of the Jin Kingdom, a stone actually spoke, and it was rumored to be a strange talk for a while.

When Jin Pinggong heard about it, he asked the blind musician, Taifu Shikuang, "Why can stones speak?" ”

Shi Kuang replied: "The stone itself can't speak, and the poem says, the sorrow can't be spoken, the tongue is out, and the only bow is deaf." Able to speak, clever words like a stream, bow down and rest. The palace you built was tall and extravagant, and it also violated the agricultural time, and the people's financial resources were exhausted, and the resentment and slander reached to the sky, so there were foreign objects, and stones spoke, what is so strange? ”

And Uncle Xian also predicted: The day this palace is completed, that is, when the princes rebel and leave, the monarch will also have disasters.

Le Qi has seen it with his own eyes now, and he knows that it is no wonder that Shi Kuang, Shu Xiang and others have repeatedly criticized Pinggong's behavior of building the Qi Palace, because the overlord temperament of this palace has been completely lost, but he has been restrained by the beautiful sound of Pu Shang.

What Le Qi has seen and heard in the Jin Kingdom in recent days is that the common people are striking outside, and the official palace is becoming more and more extravagant, and the wild people on the road are starving each other, while the Jin office is becoming more and more greedy and oppressive. In the end, "when the people heard the public order, they were like fleeing from Kouyun", Liuqing took the opportunity to buy people's hearts, and the Marquis of Jin fell into power.

Liuqinghe stopped and walked under the palace, and began to climb the stairs according to the rank under the guidance of the ceremonial officials who wore leather clothes and held Yugui. Le Qi saw that the majestic hall was supported by a copper base and huge pillars, and in the middle there were chariots and guards, flags and rituals of various colors.

Outside the hall, there are dozens of black-clothed palace guards of the Jin Kingdom standing upright guarding, and they are all burly and strong. Wearing a crown on the vertebrae, wearing exquisite leather armor, holding a finch in his hand, holding a favor, standing in the bimen; There are more than ten people who are tied to the sword, and they are sandwiched between the two orders.

It looks very mighty, but Le Qi has already learned from Zhao Ying's mouth that in this Qi Palace, there are even many guards who were temporarily borrowed by the Marquis of Jin Guan Liuqing to support the scene, but in fact, they are all private soldiers...... Decades ago, Uncle Jin said that the Jin Kingdom "does not drive horses, has no military march, has no public passengers, and has no long ranks", which is not a lie.

Stepping into the palace door, I saw the internal furnishings of the axe screen, the position of the door and window on both sides, laying a double-layer guan seat for the doctor to kneel and sit, the guan seat is decorated with black and white silk lace, the front is unadorned several cases, furnishing colored jade, lacquerware.

The ceremonial officials rumored that they were "trending", and the six secretaries and doctors of the Jin State held the jade gui and walked forward in a neat and orderly manner, arranging in shifts from east to west.

In the sound of bells and drums, the monarch who had lived in the deep palace for a long time was finally surrounded by the inner servants and rode from the side hall to the court.

I saw the young Marquis of Jin wearing a gown, wearing a crown, decorating nine chapters, riding on the ink court, and the vertical temple after the public opinion held the banner of Jiaolong ornamentation.

After taking his seat, the Marquis of Jin's gaze swept through the "crown" made of pearl and jade, and swept over the three people of Jin Qing Fan Ying, Zhao Ying, and Song Envoy Le Qi in the front row, and finally stopped at Shangjun Zuo Zhisong.

The two of them glanced at each other, and nodded slightly towards the Marquis of Jin unconsciously.

The Marquis of Jin knew in his heart that everything was still done according to the agreement, so he waved his hand and ordered the musicians to beat the bell drum music and play the yellow bell Dalu.

"In Muqing Temple, Su Yong appeared. Jiji Duoshi, the virtue of Bingwen! "It was "Song of Zhou. Qing Temple.

The big court meeting on the winter solstice has officially begun......

Lebi, the doctors of the Qing Dynasty called for the birthday of the Marquis of Jin.

And Le Qi took a step forward with the jade gui that the ceremonial official had handed him to wrap silk before, and played in a loud voice: "Le Qi, the foreign minister of the Song State, came to meet the Marquis of Jin on the order of the widow!" ”

The doctors were all waiting for the Marquis of Jin to ask and answer questions and answers according to etiquette, and greeted the Duke of Song and the prince of Song State in good health.

However, the Marquis of Jin did not say a word.

Le Qi raised his head in surprise, and stood in the center of the hall so awkwardly, Yugui in his hand didn't know whether to put it down or continue to hold it.

And Zhong Xingyin looked at his embarrassed and lonely figure, as well as the piece of jade hanging from his waist, with a sinister sneer on his face.

Zhao Ying and Han Buxin also felt a little uneasy, they looked at each other, Zhao Ying clenched his fists tightly, he had a hunch that something was too wrong today, this was not in line with the previous step-by-step court meeting, it seemed that something was going wrong.

The doctors also began to whisper, not knowing what was going on.

Only the eyes of the Chinese army Zuo Zhi were slightly closed, and everything seemed to be under control.

Just then, someone moved.

Fan Ying was the only Jin Qing who could go to the palace with a sword, and he also took a step forward with his dove cane, standing in front of Le Qi.

He said slowly: "Song envoy is slow! The old minister has one thing to play first! ”

……

At this moment, in Chengyi, the Winter Solstice Festival sacrifice, which is second only to Zhengdan in a year, is also kicking off.

Zhao Wuxian heard Cheng Wu say that in the Spring and Autumn Period, there is a saying that "the winter solstice is as big as a year". It is believed that the winter solstice is the time when the yin energy is extremely strong and the yang energy is born, and after the winter solstice, the days are getting longer and longer day by day, and the yang energy is rising, so it is the beginning of a solar term cycle and an auspicious day.

According to the weekly rites, "Take the winter solstice to the gods, people and ghosts." "The three elders held small sacrifices, and at the winter solstice, they gathered the Chinese in the village to gather at the temple to pray for and eliminate the epidemic in the fiefdom of the state and reduce the starvation and death caused by the famine year.

The major affairs of the country, in the eyes of Ji Qiao and others, these two are Zhao Wuxian's responsibilities, and he needs to do it himself.

Zhao Wuxian knew that the people at the bottom of this era were very superstitious about ghosts and gods, and he didn't dare to be careless about this, so today he wore a dark dress and a deep coat, a sheep fur, and a white jade ring, and dressed very formally.

At this time, he was meticulously performing the duties of the lord under the guidance of the three elders of the township.

Outside the shrine temple near Chengyi Township Temple, a low mound has already been built with stones and rammed earth, which is the stage for the beginning of the sacrifice.

Except for Cheng Weng, Cheng Shu and others who once again closed their doors on the grounds of Cheng Ji's funeral, almost all the Chinese in the countryside came and stood densely in several circles. The savages and hooligans also watched from afar on the periphery, and they were not qualified to get too close, and the order was maintained by Wang Sunji, Yang Tongue Rong and Zhao soldiers.

Of course, Sang Yang Weng, Cheng Lang and others, who broke up unhappily with Zhao Wuxian yesterday, were also present.

The people of the country have been told that after the sacrifice, there will be a public meeting on the agricultural affairs of the whole village.

Ask for collections, ask for recommendations......
