Next Chapter

Into spring and autumn.

If the courtesy of the monarch and the minister is bad, then the world will grow with intelligence, so that the sages and sages will become princes, and the society will be wiped out, and the harm of the people will be wiped out.

"The world is losing its benevolence." A young monarch lamented.

He has a fresh crown and a robe, looking at the mountains and rivers in the rain, and he is not touched by the rain on the floor, quietly and watching, but as a monarch, facing the world, he has the right to dominate, but he can't be alone.

……

Zhou Dynasty, a dynasty centered on blood and etiquette, according to blood, meritorious deeds divided people into three, six, nine, etc., Zhou Tianzi is the world's great sect, and it has a class lord system, according to the status of the princes, marquis, uncle, son, male, five kinds of titles of princes, forming a pyramid-shaped hierarchy from top to bottom, and the land, wealth and people are distributed to the relatives of the Son of Heaven, the elders and important ministers who have made meritorious contributions, and the descendants of the ancient holy kings.

Under the system of "feudal relatives, with the feudal Ping Zhou", the princes went to the designated place to establish their own subject states, rule the local people, and at the beginning of the establishment of the Western Zhou Dynasty, they had concurrently ruled the world and established seventy-one states, so as to achieve the purpose of defending against dogs and southern barbarians. But with the passage of time, the Son of Heaven divided the land to the princes, and the princes then divided the feudal to the Qing doctor, the connection between the central and local governments became weaker and weaker, and the power of the princes and the Qing doctor in the local area became more and more stable, and gradually got out of the control of the Zhou Tianzi, until the king of Zhou Ping moved east to Luoyang, and history entered the Spring and Autumn Period. The feudal states gradually got rid of the shackles of the Zhou Dynasty, more than 100 vassal states in the Spring and Autumn Period fought and annexed each other, ignoring the Zhou Tianzi, ignoring the Zhou rites, the strong survived, the weak perished, the small countries were oppressed and destroyed, and the morality of etiquette and law gradually disappeared, representing only the competition of strength.

In the fourth year of King Qing of Zhou (615 B.C.), the wild geese flew south and fell into the cold and miserable......

In the secluded Zhu Palace, on the empty hall, the king of Chu and the merchants drank themselves in front of the case. The white snow shone into the hall, and he remembered that it was the same day......

He raised the bronze lord and drank it all, because he drank too quickly, coughed a few times, looked at the bear paw on the case, a disgusting smell of blood rushed to his throat, and a mouthful of blood sprayed onto the bear paw, he was covered in a cold sweat, dizzy, lying on the desk, even if his body was like this, he did not let the chamberlain come in to serve.

He looked at the bear's paw, his thoughts were surging, many years ago, his father Chu Chengwang asked him to eat the bear's paw before he died, saying that he would die after eating the bear's paw, heh, Shangchen sneered, how greedy is his father, is he stupid? It's just to stall for time and wait for help. Back then, his father wanted to abolish him as a prince because of his bee-eyed jackals, ugly appearance, cruel and lustful, and set up a heroic son-in-law position, he learned that he directly forced the palace, forcing King Chu Cheng to hang himself, he looked at the old father showing his long and terrifying tongue, and the snow outside the window was reflected in his white eyes, hateful pale face, and the merchant was extremely happy! "Hahaha!" He still laughs out loud with a vengeance. The son's position is just a good-looking empty skin, in terms of age and talent, the prince's position is not the turn of the prince's position at all, and the old guy still wants him to dream in the underworld with his long career and less work, and the north minister's office! Just as he was about to give the order, he saw the king, grandson, and bear couple trembling behind the pillar, and the process of his father's murder just now was seen by his son.

Xiong Lu is the eldest son of Shang Chen, a famous couple, and a companion of words.

Seeing Shang Chen's gaze turn to him, Xiong Lu walked out from behind the pillar in fear, his face pale.

Shang Chen walked over, his footsteps approached little by little, as if the devil was coming to ask for his life, and the bear couple was so frightened that his whole body stiffened, and he couldn't move.

Shang Chen pointed to the still trembling bears, his eyes were fierce, and in a voice that only the two of them could hear, he coldly threatened: "Say it and kill you." ”

The bear couple nodded with a bloodless face, and at that moment, an invisible barrier and rift appeared between the father and son. Although King Chu Cheng didn't like Shang Chen, he liked Shang Chen's son Xiong Liang very much, and often accompanied Xiong Liang to play chess, play the top, and kindly coax him to sleep...... Now that the grandfather has been killed by his father, and the king has been killed by his courtiers, the five-year-old bear couple is so frightened that he does not dare to cry.

Personnel are impermanent, especially the people of the royal family are even more impermanent, this second is father and son, the next second is the enemy, the so-called human ethics are constant, the way of monarchs and ministers is to play on the spot, in the face of power, anything can be destroyed.

Since he succeeded to the throne, Shang Chen, with resentment towards his father, fought for hegemony, determined to govern this Chu State in glory and glory, prove to that old thing that he is stronger than Gongzi, and if he does not make him king, King Chu Cheng will regret it sooner or later, and the Chu State will also lose a wise monarch! As soon as he ascended the throne, he destroyed the Jiang State, forced his aunt Jiang Mi to death, expanded the territory of the Chu State, and then led the army to destroy the Six Kingdoms and the Tateshi State...... And then control the Jianghuai River Basin. In order to intimidate the Jin state, he ordered a formal alliance with the Chen and Zheng states to disintegrate the southern sphere of influence during the Jin Wengong era and threaten the Jin state's hegemony. He wants to prove it to the people of Chu and the world! He will lead the State of Chu to dominate the world! But now, the long-term reckless military force has caused problems in the rear of the Chu State, and also given Ruo Ao's power a chance to expand, Shang Chen blamed himself for reflecting but helpless, he is also old, almost to the time when the oil runs out, he often vomits blood for no reason, and feels headaches...... Sighing that he has not yet completed a meritorious career and is about to leave, he is distressed that the talented can continue to complete the mission, and Zhao Meng of the Jin State monopolizes power, iron-fisted politics, outstanding military achievements, and the unification of the upper and lower decrees of the Jin State, in recent years, some small countries in the Central Plains have bowed down to the Jin State, and the Jin State is about to restore its hegemony, and years of hard work may fall short...... The crown prince is the eldest son, mediocre, playing and singing with musicians all day long, living in prostitution, riding horses and hunting, not thinking of progress, and other sons have done nothing, do you want to let Da Chu be ruined in his hands? Was it the retribution for killing his father back then? He let out a long sigh at the thought of this.

At the entrance of Zhu Palace, the stone steps are Leilei, the bears are wearing a crescent white robe, looking into the distance leisurely in the palace, this robe is a little shorter than the wide robe of the Central Plains, the big sleeves are a little shorter, and he is like a crane like a tall figure, the edge of the clothes shines like a pearl, with a dark light of the phoenix bird pattern knitted tape piping, the hair is neatly tied in the cut cloud crown, the sword eyebrows are starry, the eyes are dyed red with the sunset of the sea of clouds, and the Manhui pavilion is close at hand, with the carved dragon lining the phoenix with the railing, the eyebrows are full of clouds and light breezy calm, so handsome.

Who knew that he was nasty!

"Wu Ju, how is this flute?" Xiong Lu showed the flute in his hand to Wu Ju on the side.

This is an ivory flute, polished to a delicate smoothness, as warm and translucent as jade.

"Wu Ju is a martial artist, he doesn't know musical instruments, and he forgives his ignorance." Wu Ju arched his hand.

"Then you have to learn more, if this flute is inserted in Mei Ji's twin peaks, it is even more fragrant and pleasing to the eye, I don't know what it tastes like when used on a woman in the Jin Kingdom, I really want to appreciate it." The bears revered.

After speaking, Wu Juteng's face turned crimson, and he was ashamed of his words, and the prince who seemed to be like a fairy actually said vulgar words all day long.

The bear couple didn't care about Wu Ju's expression, leisurely, holding the ivory flute in the direction of the Jin Kingdom, the sound of the flute was deep and low, tactful and melodious, containing the surrounding Zhu Palace, Xiao Yin turned, and it happened that a line of egrets flew into the sky, it was the fusion of the wonderful turning point and the scenery of the Xiao song, and the egret seemed to soar into the sky with the power of music.
