Verse 67: Dialogue in the Temple of Diligent Government.

On the street outside the palace gate, dozens of carriages slowly left and disappeared into the bustling Yingdu. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 Info Sitting in the carriage is the important minister of Dachu, who is a leader who has come out of the academy of literature, and is a well-known secretary of Dachu.

In the past, they would not have left the palace so late, but the matter discussed today had a great impact on the future direction and future of the Chu State. The overlord Xu State was invaded by the Rong people, and the Xu State Office fled under the leadership of King Xu Ling and came to the Chu State to seek refuge and help. After several years of war, the war became more and more fierce in Xu State, and Da Chu invested more and more troops and financial resources, which gradually overwhelmed Da Chu.

Therefore, today's discussion on whether to continue to help the recovery of the Xu State is just that many courtiers do not agree on the same opinion, resulting in a discussion from the early dynasty to midnight. The fierce discussion of the day had already exhausted the ministers, and some even fell asleep in the court. However, when the bell of the sacrificial holy place rang, both the prince and the ministers suddenly woke up, and looked at Yingdu outside the main hall with a suspicious expression.

The historic attic was once owned by the state religion, and after the state religion fell apart and turned into the five major sacrificial holy places, it became an item of the sacrificial holy land of the Chu State. There was only one huge bronze bell in that attic, and the bronze bell would not ring no matter what it did in normal times, and would only ring when the powerhouse of the Divine Realm arrived.

These histories are very clear to all the ministers in the Qinzheng Palace.

When the king of Chu stepped down from the throne, when Xue Baiying came to the palace of Qinzheng, the prince and the ministers held their breath, and then left under the order of the king of Chu.

But when everyone left the deserted street, only one carriage stopped, and an old man stood on the faintly lit street, looking at the palace of diligence, which was even brighter than usual.

"Snow Baiying," the old man muttered to himself, and then suddenly looked at the darkness beside him.

Someone came slowly from the darkness, wearing the dark sacrificial clothes of the Chu State, so that the visitor and the darkness were one, but the old man was still clearly visible, and the face of the person who came was full of femininity.

The "Lord of the Rulers" came and saluted slowly.

The old man is now the ruling uncle of Da Chu, and he is the most famous secretary of Da Chu.

Uncle has smiled and said, "Uncle is a noble priest, why bother to salute a mortal like the old man?"

Uncle, one of the five major sacrifices of the Great Chu Sacrificial Holy Land, controls the laws and rules of the sacrificial holy land, and is also the only great sacrifice that the sacrificial holy land maintains neutrality.

"Uncle has been in power, he is a veteran of the two dynasties, and he once helped the king win the victory in the Gongqing, and he is a well-known old gentleman, so he should accept the uncle's salute," the uncle smiled and respected.

Uncle had heard the key in his uncle's words, and said in a deep voice: "Uncle Prince, it seems that the king really has good intentions. ”

"How can you see it," Uncle smiled, obviously not acknowledging his words.

Now everyone in the territory of Great Chu knows that the national teacher is about to return to the arms of the saint, and the ambition of the king of Chu is exposed. There are two princes of the five major sacrifices, and they support the sacrificial holy land to be controlled by the king of Chu, and they are not such as independent forces outside of Great Chu. It's just that there are still two sacrifices among the five major sacrifices, following the rules of the past of the sacrificial holy land, and opposing the sacrificial holy land becoming the private property of Great Chu.

But now that the uncle has appeared here, and there is a snow-white reflection in the capital tonight, the uncle is completely clear in his heart that the king of Chu is determined to take in the sacrificial holy land. At the same time, Bo was also surprised in his heart, the once weak and pitiful seventeenth prince had grown into such a hero in just over twenty years.

"Snow white reflecting Yingdu is not the best proof," Bo has sighed, looking at the Qinzheng Palace, the symbol of Great Chu.

................................

The Qinzheng Hall is a symbol of all Chu people, seven hundred years ago King Cheng of Chu came to Yingdi and built the first building in the wilderness and swamp, which is now the Qinzheng Palace. It's just that at that time, the Qinzheng Hall was just a simple hut, not the luxurious and majestic palace that now stands on the ninety-nine steps.

However, with the achievement of the hegemony of Chu by King Chu Zhuang, under the advice of the sage and the ministers, the simple Qinzheng Hall was rebuilt, which became the symbol of Great Chu.

The lights in the Qinzheng Hall are bright, eighteen lacquered red carved dragon pillars stand left and right, thirty courtiers kneel and sit in the position in turn, the three-meter-high royal platform is golden and brilliant, and the throne on it has a long history and is extremely exquisite.

The king of Chu did not want to sit on the throne in the past, but sat in the position of a courtier at will, drinking the wine on the table freely, not like a king full of majesty, but like a big man in the downtown area.

Xue Baiying sat beside the King of Chu, drinking the strongest wine of Chu, like a scholar who kept manners. Of course, Xue Baiying is a scholar, and she came to a small township school in Shangdang County, an inconspicuous and simple small township school.

"I haven't seen you for many years, you're still the same as before," Xue Baiying smiled.

After hearing this, the king of Chu put down his wine glass, took off the royal clothes on his body, and looked at Xue Baiying with more and more drunkenness.

"You have changed a lot, your once black hair is a little white, your former arrogance has been smoothed out by the years, and your eyes like stars have dimmed a lot" King Chu sighed, unable to hear the joy and sorrow in his voice, picked up the wine glass and drank it all.

Xue Baiying didn't explain anything, but Furui Wubo asked, "You really think about it"

After hearing this, the king of Chu paused with the hand that raised the wine glass, and even saw a slight trembling, letting the wine in the wine glass scatter out, revealing a gloomy sadness in his expression, but more of a trace of determination and indifference.

Xue Baiying saw the appearance of the King of Chu, her expression was lonely, her eyes dimmed, and she got up to leave.

"Seven days later, the countermeasure exam" King Chu's voice came from the Qinzheng Palace.

Xue Baiying stopped, her body trembled slightly, and she looked at the sacrificial shrine from the platform, where the clouds and mist were like a fairyland.
