Chapter 157: Going to the Banquet (3)

"The hot pot of the royal sister's house is delicious! Just looking at it makes you have an appetite. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info "Zhou Zheng picked up a piece of meat from the hot pot and shaved the rice in the mouth, not that Zhou Zheng didn't want to eat rice, but that Zhou Ruoying's hot pot was already spicy out of Zhou Zheng's tolerance range.

It can be said that even Zhou Zheng doesn't know how many chili peppers are in this hot pot, but it tastes like one word, cool!

Originally, Zhou Zheng thought that there should be other people in Zhou Ruoying's banquet this time, but now it seems that it should be just a very ordinary family banquet.

"By the way, Sister Huang, why don't you see your little sister coming?" Zhou Xun wants to assist Zhou Hong in handling government affairs, there must be no time Zhou Xue has nothing to do all day long, except for playing, this time I didn't see Zhou Xue, the crazy girl, Zhou Zheng was a little curious.

Zhou Ruoying listened to Zhou Zheng's words and smiled: "Since the school holiday, the little sister has been taken to the palace by the queen mother to live, where is there time to come out of the wild, in my opinion, the little sister is also good to be taken into the palace by the queen mother, and she will take a good job." ”

After listening to the words of the imperial sister, Zhou Zheng also agreed very much, Zhou Xue's girl has always been crazy, this time there is a queen mother in charge, although Zhou Zheng does not report any hope, but after all, he can still make his little sister, who has never been boundary, stable for a while, but when it comes to autumn, Zhou Zhengke is not very sure.

After taking a bite of food, Zhou Zheng shifted the topic to Bai Qi again.

"By the way, my brother-in-law has been guarding Manzhou all these years, how does the style of Manzhou compare with that of Hojing? The book says that the people of Manzhou have always been Ru Mao and drink blood."

There are so many states in the world, and Zhou Zheng, who is too far away, can't understand what he has learned from the book, so it is better to ask those who have experienced it.

Bai Qi has been guarding the barbarian state for many years, and he has always been very familiar with some of the customs and customs of the barbarian state, so it is better to ask Bai Qi.

When Zhou Zheng asked this, Bai Qi was a little stunned at first, and then he talked to Zhou Zheng.

A big man and a little man bragging while eating, from Bai Qi's words, Zhou Zheng also has a great understanding of Manzhou, which is completely different from what is said in the book, the book says that Manzhou has always belonged to the state of Ru Mao drinking blood, and I don't know how many years ago.

Since the barbarians in the 100,000 mountains of Manzhou gradually came out to accept the management of the Great Zhou, the situation in Manzhou is better than before, I don't know how many times, and the farming technology has allowed the barbarians to start living the same farm life as the Central Plains.

In addition, some barbarian tribes moved out of the mountains and gradually understood the advanced knowledge of the Great Zhou, and they had long since broken away from the social form of Ru Mao drinking blood.

However, although these barbarians have escaped the era of Ru Mao drinking blood, some customs in the clan have been retained, and when Zhou Zheng heard this, he couldn't help but stop eating and asked Bai Qi.

"Brother-in-law, what do you mean by this, could it be that there are still some important customs among the barbarians?" What is the custom that ethnic assimilation did not make these barbarians give up, but it made Zhou Zheng extremely curious.

"Among the barbarians, the barbarians all worship witches, and each tribe has a witch sacrifice to the sky, and the prestige of the witch sacrifice in the tribe is very high, that is, these tribes have moved out of the 100,000 mountains, and the witch has always had an extremely lofty position in the hearts of these barbarians, just like our respect for the sky."

Witch sacrifices? When Zhou Zheng heard this word, he had an extremely familiar feeling in his heart, as if he had heard this word somewhere, but he forgot when he had heard this word.

"Listening to my brother-in-law say this, it seems that when the time comes, I will have the opportunity to see what kind of existence this so-called witch is!"

When Bai Qi heard Zhou Zheng's words, his face suddenly turned sideways, and he hurriedly said: "His Royal Highness King Qi doesn't have such a mentality, no one has understood the power of witches until now, only that it is a inheritance from the depths of the 100,000 mountains, a large number of witches gather in the depths of the mountains and rarely appear, and only a few witches will go out of the mountains."

This time Bai Qi quelled the rebellion in the Barbarian State, and Wu appeared from the deep mountains to participate in the rebels in the Barbarian State, this time Bai Qi knew how strong the power of the Wu was, even in the case of having a military array, but he was just barely reluctantly repelling the Wu, so Bai Qi has the deepest memory of the power of the Wu.

In comparison, Bai Qi is more worried about why so many witches in the 100,000 mountains are willing to stay in the mountains instead of going out of the mountains, Bai Qi is not difficult to imagine that if so many witches go out of the 100,000 mountains, what a powerful force it will be, that is, Da Zhou will have to retreat three points in the face of such a powerful force!

Bai Qi's words of blocking, his words were full of solemnity, looking at Bai Qi's solemn expression, Zhou Zheng didn't say anything more, since Bai Qi said that Barbarian Prefecture was the most dangerous, it was better not to go.

"You two, you used to have a good meal, but now it's better for the two of you to talk about it, but talk about other things!" On the side, Zhou Ruoying was suddenly a little dissatisfied.

The conversation between Zhou Zheng and Bai Qi gave Zhou Ruoying no chance to interject, and it was not Zhou Ruoying's character to let Zhou Ruoying just look at it.

After a sentence, Zhou Zheng and Bai Qi immediately stopped discussing things on the battlefield, but turned to save the country and discuss things in the barracks.

Zhou Ruoying, who was watching on the side, also didn't have any temper, so she had to stop bothering and put all her thoughts on the hot pot in front of her.

If you want to train the army, you must have an excellent general, obviously Bai Qi is an excellent general in the eyes of Zhou Zheng, and it is not difficult for Zhou Zheng to know some about the army from Bai Qi's mouth.

As soon as the two sips of wine turned white, his mouth suddenly widened, and some words spit out, which was completely different from the serious face before he didn't drink.

"It's not that I blew it, I really look down on the Praetorian Guard, no...... Don't ask why, the Praetorian Guard is the elite I have to admit that all of his martial arts cultivation is not weak, but he has never seen blood or been on the battlefield, and he has no experience at all, he is all fancy! ”

When the wine was drunk, some of Bai Qi's astonishing remarks came out, but the remarks turned out to be the truth in Zhou Zheng's opinion, as far as Zhou Zheng knew, the Praetorian Guards had indeed never been on the battlefield.

It looks like an elite but has never seen a little blood, and no one knows what kind of performance the Praetorian Guard will have if it goes to the battlefield one day, only the battle-hardened army can be regarded as an elite.

The two kept talking, and Bai Qi also told Zhou Zheng a lot about things in the army, so it can be said that this family banquet was completely an exchange between Zhou Zheng and Bai Qi, and eating was a secondary thing.

At the end of the meal, the vegetables and meat used for shabu-shabu on the table had been eaten, and Zhou Zheng and Bai Qi realized that this time the family banquet seemed to end in the atmosphere of you blowing and I blowing.
