Students who travel around the Quartet, whether they are disciples of Confucianism or disciples of other schools of thought, will always try to come to the Western Zhou Dynasty and feel the glory of the civilization of etiquette and music.

Feel the serene comfort of the bloody world.

Confucianism enshrines the civilization of ritual music, and always tries to return to that era of faint sound, but it is a pity that the wheel of history is moving forward rapidly, crushing the culture of ritual music that is about to fall.

Zhang Yixin wandered around the streets of the Western Zhou Dynasty, and he was not in a hurry to do what the Western Zhou Jun had already explained. In addition, I was busy running a few days ago, and I already felt a little tired, and the years were not forgiving, Zhang Yi thought to herself, 'People can't disobey the old, I was a big Qin Po' together, and I spent a few days and nights on the carriage, and I didn't feel the slightest tiredness, but now it's good, and the country that is close at hand makes me feel a little tired'.

It's just the right time to take a walk around, relax your nerves, and take a break.

Maybe one day this will become the county of a vassal state, there will be no more well fields, there will be no more seals, maybe the banquet of Zhong Ming Ding will also be submerged in a pile of loess, barren grass.

I didn't have to think about it to come to a restaurant, only to see the lights on both sides of the restaurant, so lively, the guests who came in and out, all of them were Eguan Bo with disciples, it can be seen that the people who can come here are either rich or noble, not the princes and grandsons of the princes, or the giants and merchants who travel around the world.

Zhang Yi saw the excitement, and also wanted to come to join in the fun, turned around and dismounted, handed the reins to the entourage, strode forward, and went straight here, just approached, but was stopped by someone reaching out, and the two guards said:

"Alas! Alas! What are you doing? Go, go, don't you see that this place is busy? "Stretched out his hand to push Zhang Yi, the 'Flying Feather Guard' behind Zhang Yi saw this, took two steps and made a step, one arrow rushed forward, one hand only listened to the 'two slap sounds', the two little guys fell to the ground, just care, 'sigh! Alas! covered his face.

"Blind your dog's eyes, even the prime minister of my family dares to stop you, get out of the way, hurry up and call your master to come out to confess, if it's too late, I want your dog's life", 'Fei Yuwei' scolded loudly.

"Stop, don't do this, don't do this, since people don't welcome it, let's go and see it elsewhere." Zhang Yi stopped his 'Flying Feather Guards' from continuing to be violent against the little guys, and turned around to leave.

The current Zhang Yi is not as eager as before, Zhang Yi, who is far away from the core of power, slowly began to adapt, and gently interacted with people, if it was a few days ago, Zhang Yi would also pull the owner of this store out, at least it would be a fat beating.

The noise outside alarmed the owner of the west, and the door had already reported everything that had happened, and before Zhang Yi left, the owner inside had already walked out.

"It's nice to have friends from afar."

Zhang Yi heard that he had a familiar feeling, not only stopped, looked back, only to see someone coming, medium to upper height, slender body, a phoenix crown on his head, a cloud brocade of Chu State, embroidered with a hundred birds and a phoenix, and a pair of tall leather boots made of buffalo leather on the soles of his feet.

A pair of big eyes, a wide forehead, a high nose bridge, never spoke, with a three-point smile.

"Who am I, who am I to be so arrogant and dare to do it in front of my door, it turns out to be Prime Minister Zhang Cheng!" There is a bit of hostility in the mouth, and the exit is naturally aggressive.

"Old friend, don't come unharmed! Zhang Yi is polite," said Zhang Yi and bowed to salute.

"Hey! Prime Minister Zhang can't be like this, I'm a barbarian, I can't afford such a big gift from you, so you should be exempted. The person who came did not answer, expressing strong anger.

"In this case, Zhang Yi's worship is naturally indispensable." Between words, bending down to salute is a fait accompli.

The person who came was helpless, so he had to bow down and return the salute, although he was reluctant, but he could also see that he was helpless.

Seeing the person in front of him, Zhang Yi already had a plan in his heart, after he escaped from the Qin State, sooner or later he would be abandoned by the princes, and if he didn't do it, he would have to worry about his life, maybe the person in front of him could save his life.

"Good! Good! In that case, why don't you invite me to sit down with you? Zhang Yi took the initiative to speak.

"People in the world, counting you Zhang Yi, the most untrustworthy, if I am with you, won't I make the world laugh." The visitor refused to receive Zhang Yi.

"In troubled times, you and I are our own masters, and it is your duty and duty to criticize and write in the temple, and now in the capital under the rule of the Son of Heaven in this week, you and I are both clothed bodies, where do so many grievances come from?" Zhang Yi argued.

"Friends in cloth? Good friend! Zhang Yi, let me ask you, when you shook your lips and puffed up your tongue to deceive King Huai, did you ever think about the friendship of cloth and clothes? You deceived King Huai with six miles of land, have you ever had a friend in cloth?

What does this cloth friendship have to do with you and me! Prime Minister Zhang, please go back! The person who came didn't want to give up his views and opinions, and insisted on not letting Zhang Yi enter the door.

"I know that Da Sima has a deep affection for me. In the battle between Chu and Song in Hongshui, Song Xianggong completely followed the etiquette of the ancients and did not attack the Chu soldiers who were crossing the river.

Song Xianggong was defeated, and when he was dying, he kept warning his descendants.

A virtuous gentleman does not attack an enemy who has been wounded, and at the same time does not attack an old man whose hair has grayed. Especially when the ancients fought every time, they did not rely on dangerous fortresses to win, and although the outnumbered Song Kingdom was about to perish, I still couldn't bear to attack those enemies who had not yet set up their formations.

Back then, Song Xianggong was well aware of the ancestors' etiquette and enshrined it as if it were Guigao, but today, the countries of the Central Plains have long abandoned all this, but it is the Chu State that is convinced.

I, Zhang Yi, are loyal to the country, and what is the personal gain or loss. Even if he is scolded by the world, he will not hesitate to do it."

"Good! Zhang Yi, listening to your words today, it seems to be the truth, since you are so frank, you might as well come in and have a few drinks with me. "As soon as he said that, he stretched out his hand to pull Zhang Yi into the door, and the 'Flying Feather Guard' wanted to reach out to stop it, but found that he couldn't stop the unattractive person in front of him at all, and his outstretched hand was pushed back by an invisible force. was so frightened that he hurriedly stood aside, and Zhang Yi also ordered:

"Do not be unreasonable, wait outside the door. You are not allowed to come in without my command. ”

Who can make Zhang Yi treat him with courtesy, the person who came is not an outsider, it is the great Sima of Chu State, Zhaoyang of Shangzhu State, Chu State is located in the southern soil, the Central Plains Dynasty regards it as a barbarian, and the ethnic minorities in the south believe in it as the Central Plains Dynasty, so the official name of Chu State has a strong Chu color, the Central Plains takes the dragon as a totem, but the Chu State takes the phoenix as the main body of worship.

In 706 B.C., Xiongtong, the king of Chuwu, attacked Suiguo, and Suiguo sent a messenger saying, 'Lile conquest is from the Son of Heaven, I am not guilty, how can you crusade against me?' ”

Xiong Tong, the king of Chuwu, said: "I am a barbarian in the south, and the princes of the present day either betray each other or kill each other. I also have a decent army, and I plan to participate in the political affairs of the Central Plains, hoping that Zhou Tianzi will honor my name. ”

(Thirty-five years, Chu Vasui.) Then he said, "I am not guilty." Chu said: "I'm a barbarian." Now the princes are all rebelling against each other, or killing each other. I have a good armor, and if I want to observe the politics of China, I ask the royal family to honor me. ”）

The people of the Sui State were afraid of the soldiers of the Chu State, so they had to go to Zhou Tianzi for the Chu State to make a request, hoping that Zhou Tianzi would give the princes of the Chu State the honorific title, Zhou Tianzi was not interested in this at all, and the people of the Sui State had no choice but to send the news to the Chu State.

(Follow the people for the week, please respect Chu, the royal family does not listen, and reports to Chu.) ）

In 704 B.C., the envoy of the accompanying country arrived in the state of Chu and conveyed the unfortunate news to Xiong Tong, the king of Chu Wu, who was full of joy, may have already made the princes' dresses, just waiting for the news to come, he could inform the world, but he did not expect to wait for such a sad result, Xiong Tong, the king of Chu Wu, was furious:

"My ancestor Mane Bear was the teacher of King Wen of Zhou, but unfortunately he died a little early. King Zhou Cheng just divided the land of the barons and ordered us to guard the land in the south, and now the barbarians in the south have come to submit to us, but the Son of Heaven still doesn't want to add our honorific titles, no way, I have to add honorific titles myself. ”

(In the thirty-seventh year, Chu Xiongtong said angrily: "I am the first bear, the teacher of King Wen, and the end of the flea.") The king of Cheng raised my father, but he was the son of the man Tian Ling Ju Chu, and the barbarians were all subdued, and the king did not add the throne, and I respected myself. "He set himself up as a warrior king, and went away with the alliance with others. So it began to open up the earth. ）

Since then, the state of Chu has had a unique cultural temperament, which has both the grace and luxury of the Central Plains Dynasty and the high-spirited and enterprising ethnic minorities in the south. The naming of official positions is also unique from that of the Central Plains Dynasty, with a different set.

A legend of Zhaoyang's fame.

In 334 BC, Zhaoyang led the elite troops of the Chu State to attack the Yue State, killed the king of the Yue State without borders, and annexed a large area of the Yue State into the Chu State.

In 323 B.C., the battle of Xiangling of Chu and Wei broke out, and Zhaoyang won Xiangling Bayi, only this battle, which made the princes of the world look sideways, and the invincible 'Wei Wushu' in the world was actually defeated in the hands of Zhaoyang.

King Chu Huai was overjoyed and gave the heirloom jade seal 'He's Bi' to Zhaoyang.

The state of Chu became the object of the vassal states for a while, competing to curry favor with each other, and the king of Chu Huai also ruled the most extensive territory and the richest land on the planet at that time.

But all this ended because of Zhang Yi's appearance. As the last generation of monarchs cultivated by the Lile civilization, Xiong Tong, the king of Chuhuai, mistakenly believed Zhang Yi and the Qin State.

In the battle of Danyang and the battle of Lantian, the vitality of the Chu State was greatly injured, and he walked down from the altar of the overlord in an instant.

As the Shangzhu State of Zhaoyang, how can he endure such a huge earth-shaking situation, the Chu State is eager to cut Zhang Yi with a thousand knives, although it has been many years ago, but seeing each other today, it is inevitable that there is some unhappiness in my heart.

After saying this, coupled with the tempering of these years, Zhaoyang naturally generously invited Zhang Yi to enter the building together, which is naturally not a problem.

Qu Ling changed his clothes after a short time, and in the courtyard of the post station, he shouted loudly and impatiently, Meng said,

"Hurry up! Well, no! It's long-winded! Can you hold on tightly? ”

"Who is shouting here, disturbing the dreams below?" An elder's voice could be heard upstairs.

Qu Ling quickly apologized when he saw it:

"Sir is bothered a lot, and I look at Haihan, I am greeting my companion, this is good, this is good." With an embarrassed face, he explained embarrassedly.
