King Chu Zhao took all the royal clansmen to worship the gods of Heaven and Beishan Mountain before the spring harvest began.

Shi Yiguang and Ban'er had already followed the people brought by the royal family and waited in the tent under the North Mountain.

After King Chu Zhao and others finished worshipping the mountain god, someone came to spread the word. Shi Yiguang took Ban'er and everyone to greet him.

At this time, King Chu Zhao walked to the high platform with the high-ranking officials of the royal family, and when he gave an order, the soldiers raised their arms and shouted, and the school field where the general woke up in the morning breeze of February suddenly boiled with enthusiasm.

Shi Yiguang stood under the high platform, stood in the crowd, and watched the school field start to practice.

In modern terms, this is a form of military parade.

Ban'er stood next to Shi Yiguang, watching the golden drums in the school field, and thousands of soldiers were like one person, sitting and lying down in an orderly manner. It was accompanied by bursts of cries.

Ban'er looked a little stunned.

"Have you never seen a drill?" Shi Yiguang tilted his head and looked at the half-way with his mouth open.

"Have you seen it?" Ban'er turned his head and looked at Shi Yiguang and asked.

Shi Yiguang shook his head: "I haven't seen this, but I've seen a more spectacular and majestic military parade." โ€

"Where?" As soon as his voice fell, he asked suspiciously, "Zhou Tianzi?" โ€

Every year in the month of Mengdong, Zhou Tianzi came to talk about martial arts, and the princes were read, which was also the origin of the great parade of the winter military parade in later generations.

Shi Yiguang shook his head: "I haven't seen Zhou Tianzi." โ€

"So where have you seen a more powerful military parade than this?" Ban'er tilted his head, looking at Shi Yiguang's eyes with curiosity and excitement.

Shi Yiguang smiled and shook his head: "More majestic than Zhou Tianzi." โ€

"Wow!" Ban'er's eyes lit up directly: "Where is it, where is it, I want to see it too!" โ€

Shi Yiguang turned his head, glanced at it for a while, his eyes were bent, and he didn't speak, but turned his head and looked into the school again.

The soldiers in the school yard are still practicing neatly and majestically.

The king of Chu stood on the high platform, and after reading it, it was already past noon.

Shi Yiguang and Ban'er were laughing and saying something, when they heard the voice of a slave next to them.

"But Mr. Bingwen?"

When Shi Yiguang heard this, he stopped turning around and turned his head to look at the slave girl standing next to him with low eyebrows and a smile.

Shi Yiguang turned around, stood still, looked at the clothes on the slave's body, raised his head, looked at the high platform, and saw Zixi and King Chu Zhao beside him looking at him, and from time to time he lowered his head and said something.

"It's despicable." Shi Yiguang turned his head, looked at the slave in the palace clothes, and replied softly.

"Please come with your concubine." The servant whispered, leaned sideways, and walked towards the high platform with Shi Yiguang on the side.

Shi Yiguang followed the servant, walked up to the high platform, and stood in front of King Chu Zhao.

"But Mr. Bingwen?" King Chu Zhao opened his mouth first and asked with a smile.

"It's the grass people." Shi Yiguang knelt down in front of King Chu Zhao while replying, raised his hand, leaned down with his whole body, and made a big bow.

"Grass people Bingwen, meet the king." Shi Yiguang said respectfully, leaning on the ground.

"Sir, please get up." King Chu Zhao took two steps forward, bent down personally, and stretched out his hand to help Shi Yiguang.

Shi Yiguang followed King Chu Zhao's movements and got up. The drooping gaze swept over the footwear of Zixi next to him.

King Chu Zhao actually bent down to support her personally, and he didn't know how many good things Zixi said in front of this King Chu Zhao. Only then did King Chu Zhao have such an attitude.

Shi Yiguang was still meditating, and King Chu Zhao opened his mouth: "Lord Ling Yin has already told the widow about Mr., thanks to Mr. 's great talent, my country has avoided a disaster." King Chu Zhao said, raised his hand, faced Shi Yiguang, leaned over slightly, and made a half-salute.

"Wang Shang Longen, don't dare to take credit." Shi Yiguang replied respectfully and softly to King Chu Zhao, leaned over, and returned a big salute.

"Mr. is really as good as Ling Yin said, virtuous and courteous." King Chu Zhao said, and made a 'please' gesture at the bottom of the high platform: "Sir, please." โ€

"The king goes first." Shi Yiguang bowed again and bowed respectfully.

This is the reason why she has never liked to talk to high-ranking officials and princes, and her waist is about to break.

Shi Yiguang followed King Chu Zhao into the king's tent and half-guarded outside the tent.

Zixi followed King Chu Zhao into the king's tent.

The three of them sat opposite each other on a table in the middle of the tent.

King Chu Zhao sat cross-legged on the slightly one inch high wooden platform fox carpet, looked at Shi Yiguang opposite, and said in a gentle tone: "Sir, is the gift under the door of Ling Yin's Mansion now?" โ€

Shi Yiguangxun sat on the opposite case of King Chu Zhao, sat with his hands on the front of his hips, nodded, respectfully and without smiling: "Exactly." โ€

Listening to Shi Yiguang's answer, King Chu Zhao nodded with satisfaction, then turned his head to look at Ling Yin Zixi next to him, and said with a smile: "Brother, don't let down Mr. โ€

When Zixi heard this, he also smiled on his face, and replied respectfully: "Mr. Dacai, I am fortunate to be in my Chu State, this is my blessing." โ€

"It's also a blessing to me." King Chu Zhao smiled beside him and answered.

The servant kneeling beside him had already made the tea, poured it into the teacup with the tea pot, and brought it to the three of them.

At this time, there was a sound outside the tent, and Shi Yiguang's hand drinking tea paused.

After a while, the tent was opened, and King Chuzhao's cronies walked in and said, "The king, the eldest prince asks to see you." โ€

King Chu Zhao put down the teacup in his hand and nodded: "Summon." โ€

"No." The man replied and respectfully withdrew.

Then a teenager walked in from outside the tent. The moon-white silk robe is tied with a white jade crown on his head, and a willow-colored jade ring palace silk is pinned to his waist.

The face is handsome, indifferent and cold.

"Father, the army is assembled." Xiong Zhang said to King Chu Zhao above.

When King Chu Zhao heard this, he nodded, and then turned his head to Zixi on the side and said, "Let's go, we should go too." โ€

Zixi nodded and stood up with King Chu Zhao.

Shi Yiguang also stood up and walked out after Zixi.

"By the way, does the gentleman know how to ride a horse?" King Chu Zhao walked to the tent, suddenly thought of something, stood still, turned his head to look at Shi Yiguang and asked.

Shi Yiguang nodded: "A little." โ€

If it were normal, she would have shook her head. Now everyone is coming to hunt, and it would be hypocritical to say that they can't ride horses.

When King Chu Zhao heard this, he nodded and said, "That's good." Just follow us to the mountains and forests to sleep. โ€

"No." Shi Yiguang followed behind and responded respectfully.

After today's drill, I will take the army into the mountains in the afternoon. The focus of the expedition into the mountains is not to hunt, but to train the soldiers' ability to sleep in the wilderness and the skills and abilities of fighting at night.

The army would then spend the night in the jungle. It was not until the early morning of the third day that he returned to the bottom of the mountain and counted the prey.
