Chapter 34 Governing the Spirit Palace (2-in-1 Chapter)
Great Xia?
Yang Ke and the others looked confused, is there such a thing?
Yu Yuan asked weakly: "Your Highness, there is still a Great Xia in the homeland?"
"Great Xia is more than 2,000 miles southwest of Dawan. Its secular aborigines, there are city houses, and Dawan is the same custom. Seeing that everyone looked puzzled, Ji Le recited a paragraph.
This passage is from the "Records of the Historians", and it stands to reason that you should have learned it. ”
"Historical Records"?
Yang Ke and Yu Yuan once again showed blank expressions. They know the historical records, and they have also learned a lot of historical records, such as the Three Emperors and Five Emperors, Xia Wei Shangtang...... But there are no omissions in the historical records, and they don't remember any records in this regard?
"Da Xia, why didn't I see it in the 'Historical Records'?" Yang Ke said strangely: "Back then, we took the name 'Xia', which was taken from the meaning of 'Zhuxia'. ”
While speaking, Yang Ke looked at the three Wu Cheng opposite.
Yang Ke, Nangong, and Yu Yuan were young, and they didn't have anything to do with them when they were named. On the contrary, it was Wu Cheng and others who discussed the name with the previous generation back then, and used it as a proxy name for Jiugong City in other countries.
Otherwise, they wouldn't be willing to let other countries casually name Jiugong City, and give them more titles with different styles.
Facing Yang Ke's gaze, Wu Cheng glared back: How do I know that there is still a "Great Xia" in my homeland?
At that time, the cultural level of the ancestors of the Eastern Han Dynasty was generally not high. Yang Ke's ancestors can already be said to be the most knowledgeable people. However, Yang Ke's ancestors had not yet made a crown salute at that time. At a young age, he followed a group of ancestors to the other world, even though the family heritage is rich, but a young man who is not even twenty years old, how many Chinese classics can he remember?
It is not easy to complete the four books and five classics in the school palace, plus some books of agricultural and mulberry medicine. How is it possible to silence all the original works of the year word for word?
Missing pages and pages, this is the most common status quo of many scriptures in the Academy.
"You don't even know about Great Xia?" the young man couldn't help but say, "This is the information that the Marquis of Bowang brought back from the Western Regions. You don't even know Bo Wanghou, do you?"
"Bo Wanghou?" Yang Ke faintly felt that this name was somewhat familiar. Nangong Clan's expression moved: "Your Excellency is referring to Zhang Qian, the Marquis of Bowang?"
"It's him. The young man spoke of this familiar position, revealing a complicated expression. Things back then were all a mess, tossed and turned, and all of them died.
"Back then, I was with Li ...... Marched with General Fei, but lost his knighthood due to the delay in the military period. ”
Ji Le's brows moved, thinking of the flying general who sighed in later generations.
Feng Tang is easy to be old, and Li Guang is difficult to seal.
The general had a great reputation, but luck was a bit against it...... Don't talk about Li Guang, Zhang Qian walked with Li Guang, but something went wrong and he lost his title. Wei Qing and General Fei sent troops to the Huns, but they did not succeed in catching Shan Yu. The luck of that old general was even a little speechless for Emperor Wu, and he mentioned it to people close to him in private.
Ji Le muttered in his heart: Emperor Wu disliked Li Guang's back and didn't dare to drive it at will. If it were to descend in this era, would the bad luck form a special aura of supernatural powers, causing us all to suffer?
And when the young man thought of the events of that year, his thoughts drifted farther and farther away: Speaking of which, he and the old general still had a grudge against their son. But if you want to say anything, who told him not to discipline his son well, and he had to trouble his uncle? And his death back then also caused his uncle a lot of infamy. Fortunately, His Majesty did not pursue it, otherwise...... Hum!
The two were distracted and pondered, and Cangjie opened his mouth to explain: "Zhang Qian went out of the Western Regions and brought back a piece of news about 'Great Xia', which was later included in the "Historical Records: The Biography of Da Wan". But because the ancestors lacked too many scriptures in their hands, they didn't know. ”
"Those who don't know are not guilty, and it is okay to call them 'Xia Kingdom' and take the meaning of Xia. ”
Ji Le raised his eyebrows: "Don't say that the country of the Western Regions, even after the Han Dynasty, isn't there a country that claims to be 'Great Xia'?
"Starting from Xia Yu, the Zhuxia civilization is prosperous, and the old man feels that it is no big deal. ”
"Wait......" Yang Ke heard that something was wrong: "What is called after the Han Dynasty?
The young man frowned, speechless.
Ji Le and Cangjie glanced at each other, the meat scene is coming!
Cangjie said: "The years are vast, the time of this world is different from the homeland, and now there is no Han Dynasty in the homeland, only the Han people." Later, the dynasty changed, and many people also changed. ”
Yang Ke's face sank, and he sat on the cushion and bowed his head in contemplation.
Nangong and Yu Yu also frowned, understanding the meaning behind this incident.
These descendants of the ancestors of the Eastern Han Dynasty claim to be a branch of the Han Dynasty, and the ancestors all regard themselves as Hanchen. But now that Shi Huangshi has clearly told them that the Great Han Dynasty is no more, their stubbornness is meaningless!
Not to mention Yang Ke and others, even the young people felt uncomfortable listening to it.
Ji Le was not a citizen of the Han Dynasty, and Shi Huang's family was even more indifferent to the Han Dynasty. But the youth is different, even though the two Han Dynasty are separated by generations, the Eastern Han Dynasty Emperor inherited the Western Han Dynasty, and inherited from Emperor Xuan and Emperor Yuan, how can it be regarded as a family. Speaking of it, it is also related to himself.
Although he understood the original intention of Ji Le and Shi Huang's play, he still felt uncomfortable in his heart.
"What does the boss mean that since the Han Dynasty in his homeland is not there, can we establish ourselves as a country or continue the Han Dynasty?" Yang Ke was not stupid in the end, and heard Emperor Shi's allusions.
"Yang Ke, I have another big thing to do today, what kind of national glory are you going to toss, let's talk about it later!" Ji Le saw that the heat was almost the same, and directly interrupted Yang Ke's words.
His and Shi Huang's calculations were just a wake-up call for everyone and slowly paved the way. After all, he is a righteous national spirit, but the name of this country is not right, like something!
Therefore, it is the proper meaning of letting Yang Ke officially establish the country. But how to build a country, what is the name of the country, and what is the system of the country? These are all things to be discussed, and there is no rush for a while.
"Yu Yuan, go ring the bell, and the great spirits suppressed by the Spirit Palace will come here to worship!"
"Wu Li, Wu Min, you two take people to escort the spirits. ”
Ji Le didn't give everyone time to think, and immediately urged them to run to work.
Outside the Yongle Palace, a low bell rang. Everywhere in the palace, there are gorgeous tables erected. The golden light rushed to the sky, the fog was curling, Wu Li and Wu Min hurriedly led people to unseal and escort these earth spirits to the Yongle Palace.
Suddenly, the wind in the hall was gusting, and the fire was drifting. In the end, the Nangong clan is mortal, and its strength is far inferior to that of the witches present. Hit by the Yin Qi of the Great Spirit of the Earth, his face turned slightly pale.
Seeing this, Yang Ke's eyes widened, and a red sun slowly rose behind his head. Under the sunlight, the yin qi around him and the Nangong clan dissipated one after another, and even those earth spirits did not dare to get close.
"Seventeen pillars of mountains and rivers, twelve pillars of ancestral spirits, and five pillars of national spirits......" Ji Le swept it carefully and asked Yu Yuan: "Everyone is here?"
"There are a few others who have fallen in the seal. ”
"Hmm. Ji Le nodded slightly, looking around at the gods below.
The gods present had different appearances, including humanoid beings like Ji Le, and evil beast images of various beasts and poisonous insects, but more of them were half-human and half-beast gods.
However, the great spirits of the earth are all defeated, and they are all at the level of "great spirits", and not a single demigod can see them. Moreover, the brilliance on their bodies was mixed with a lot of bloody qi, and it was obvious that they had enjoyed blood sacrifices, and the divine light was not pure. Now there is no blood sacrifice, and they are all sluggish and lethargic.
Ji Le gently patted the table, and the five-colored auspicious light shone on the palace, dispelling all the evil spirits.
"After today, my lord's spiritual palace. You should change your clothes, change your folk customs, and accept the righteousness of my summer. ”
Many great spirits were caught by the witches in the Yongle Palace, stimulated by Ji Le's divine brilliance, and they came to their senses, hearing Ji Le's words, one of the ghosts and gods scolded: "Damn the god of the Xia Kingdom, suffer death!"
"Presumptuous!"
"You dare!"
Yu Yu and Wu Cheng shot at the same time, but the youth was faster than them. I saw a figure flicker, and the young man appeared in the center of the main hall and kicked the ghost and god away. This is an ancestral spirit, which is the ancestor of a certain tribe after his death, and after his death, he combined with the divine fish in his belief and became a half-human and half-fish.
Bang –
The ghost flew out.
"A mere fish demon - waste!" The young man's blood and qi condensed, and a stream of evil qi surged around.
The great spirits shuddered one after another: "How many people has this killing star killed, how can he have more bloody qi on his body than all of us?"
Yang Ke felt the fierce evil qi on the young man's body, squinted his eyes and secretly thought: I have been fighting outside for many years, and the military evil qi accumulated in my body is not as good as him. Where did this guy come from?
As soon as the young man's feet were forced, the big spirit with the fishtail of the human body suddenly let out a miserable scream: "Ah-"
All the great spirits could clearly see that the brilliance on the fishtail spirit was slightly dimmed, and the fishtail was also broken by the young man's foot.
"Be honest, or this will end to you. ”
After speaking, the young man waved his sleeves and walked back to his position.
"A little trouble, don't worry about it. Ji Le smiled, after the young man wielded his mace, it was up to him to stuff the honey.
"As long as everyone is willing to change their clothes, they are their own people. Do you have your own people, you can sit down and talk slowly, everything is easy to say. ”
An ancestral spirit cautiously asked: "How can I change my clothes casually if I have been dressed like this for hundreds of years?"
Ji Le smiled slightly, did not refute, and said directly to the young man beside him: "Grab it, hang it at the door and give it thirty lashes." ”
"You dare!" Zu Ling was shocked in his heart, but he didn't dare to attack Ji Le, and fled directly outside the hall.
Shi Huangshi picked up the pen and wrote the word "forbidden" in the air, and a barrier suddenly rose outside the hall, bouncing the ancestral spirit back into the hall. The young man struck out again, pinched Zu Ling's neck with one hand, and carried him out like a chicken.
At this time, Ji Le said to the remaining ghosts and gods: "Don't get me wrong, I asked you to change your clothes, this is not a suggestion, but an order." ”
"I am a merciful man, and I am not willing to kill, let alone bear the sin of killing gods. But if I don't kill you, I will be whipped and punished every day, and this can still be done. ”
Be obedient and don't beat you. Disobedient, hit every day.
Yang Ke heard the meaning of Ji Le's words, and secretly discussed: This is the way you came up with to deal with the Great Spirit? So violent? Why do teachers and Yu Yuan think that you are "benevolent"? This is the way your family's benevolence?
"Also, you should know your situation. You are all born of faith, and if all the people who believe in you disappear and there is no one to worship and wait, will you still exist?"
"There are only dozens of people in our country's repression, and the number of people present now is not complete. Guess where the rest of the Great Spirit is?"
The Great Spirits looked at each other, saw the fear on each other's faces, and knew better what happened to those who were not there.
For a long time, if they don't get sacrificial incense, they will slowly die out in time, leaving no trace.
"But if you are willing to follow the rules of the temple. This temple can be the master of your incense, so that you can continue. ”
"Choose, it is to honestly obey my way and become the patron saint of Huaxia. Or will you be stubborn, holding on to the flame of your civilization and eventually going to die?"
"Don't think you can resist! King Xia is a king, and he can't really set foot in Shinto. But I'm different, I'm the spirit of the country, and I naturally suppress ghosts and gods. ”
Ji Le slowly stood up, and the majesty on his body instantly filled the entire Yongle Palace.
Then there was the Spirit Palace, and then the entire Nine Palace City and even the territory of the Xia Kingdom. The sky was thundering and the wind was blowing. Here, any move by Ji Le is enough to affect the operation of the entire country.
Under this coercion, the great spirits knelt at Ji Le's feet one after another. And the screams of pain outside the door were louder and louder, so frightened that the great spirits of the earth were silent, and they didn't dare to speak casually.
"Don't speak?
"After returning today, the main hall will order the shrine maiden to prepare clothes for you and the others. They'll teach you how to dress. Remember, don't do anything to the witches of my Spirit Palace, you gods are not qualified to touch the witches of this temple. If the temple knows which of you dares to bully them, it will not be as simple as thirty lashes a day. ”
When the witches heard Ji Le's words of protection, they were beaming with joy and grateful.
I finally have a backbone!
Shrine maidens, to put it bluntly, are servants of God. These shrine maidens usually seem to have a noble status, but if they encounter those gods descending, they must be prepared to sacrifice themselves to please the gods. Ke Jile's words undoubtedly really treat them as human beings.
Naturally, he can win the hearts and minds of these shrine maidens.
When the witches led many great spirits down to change their clothes, Ji Le immediately pointed the finger at Wu Luo: "In the future, these great spirits will come to the Yongle Hall every day to worship the main hall, and they need someone to take care of them." Wu Li has a heavy responsibility, and you can't leave your post without permission, so you can stay!"
"Me?" Wu Luo was originally watching this big drama with a cold eye, but how did he know that the flames of war suddenly burned on him?
He was stunned, and hurriedly got up and said, "Your Highness, the witch master is the great witch who is in charge of the sacrifice to the gods, and the villain is just a mere deputy and does not dare to take on the heavy responsibility." ”
Hearing this, Ji Le swept his sleeves and pretended to be angry: "Since you are unwilling to take responsibility, why should you be left to do it?
Before the young man could make a move, two more puppet servants appeared next to Wu Luo out of thin air, one gagged him, and the other ripped off his sacrificial robe and witch robe, and together they pressed him to the ground.
Wu Luo struggled desperately, but Ji Le pointed at him, and a golden light bound him, destroying all Wu Luo's spiritual power, and finally collapsed to the ground.
“......”
Everyone present changed color.
Wu Luo is the powerful witch of the Spirit Palace, this is ...... Is this easy to take?
Ji Le smiled and said to Yu Yuan and Wu Cheng: "Your Excellency Wu Luo is overwhelmed by his heavy responsibilities, and he will serve with me for a few days and teach him well. The affairs of the Spirit Palace were entrusted to the two of them. I believe that there are not a few such lazy people, and you two should examine them carefully and perform the duty of counsel and education. ”
The two of them moved in their hearts, and heard the hint in Ji Le's words.
Wu Luo can't make big waves anymore, but what about his remnants?
Yu Yu said in her heart: "Does Your Highness mean to completely cleanse the Spirit Palace and arrest all these people?"
Wu Cheng's face was excited: "Yu Yuan is close to His Highness, and it is normal for His Highness to let her come forward." But deliberately pulling me in order to help us regain the rights of the Spirit Palace and restore the rule of the Spirit Palace back then?"
With their natural affection for the spirit of the country, the two naturally thought about Ji Le. And they also understood that Wu Luo's sacrifice to the local gods was incompatible with the Spirit Palace. Taking this opportunity to eradicate those surrender factions is the top priority of the Spirit Palace.
"It's just that I didn't expect His Highness to start so neatly. Yu Yu smiled bitterly in her heart, this highness's action is too high, right?
Thinking of Ji Le's announcement yesterday that he was going to trouble Nan Yushan, Yu Yu was worried again. Yang Ke is already very troublesome, if there is another highness of the main battle faction, I am afraid that it is imperative to attack Nanyu Mountain.
"Alright, Yang Ke, there's nothing to do with you here. If you are free, escort the old man to the school palace. Ji Le sat down lazily: "There are not all the classics in the school palace, look at you, you don't even know a big summer." This is all common sense, you guys, the generational break is too serious. Let's go back and let the old man make up for your lessons!"
slapped the earth to death, slapped Wu Luo, a traitor, with his backhand, and took out the Shi Huang clan to enter the palace. The action was done in one go, and before Yang Ke could react, the matter was decided by Ji Le.
When Yang Ke came back to his senses, he also found that he had no reason to refuse.
What is the situation in the homeland, I still need to find Shi Huang's inquiry. And the lack of inheritance in the homeland does need Shi Huang's help to repair it.
But watching the other party run to the school palace to toss again?
Yang Ke was unwilling in his heart.
"Of course, I know that you are busy, and the school palace will definitely not be able to take care of the old man. Let your teacher come forward. ”
Seeing Yang Ke's expression, Ji Le immediately took a step back and asked Sima Jingwen to take care of it, believing that it was enough to dispel some of Yang Ke's concerns.
