Zhou Dynasty, Linsendai.

At this time, the Milky Way in the sky is bright, and the galaxy is insignificant, and you can clearly see the stars in the sky.

The city below is also brightly lit, and the lights like a long dragon stretch to the sky.

In the thick and majestic palace buildings of the Zhou Kingdom, the hundred-meter-high building of Linxiantai has always been a special place to receive immortals and strong people.

The same is true today, King Zhou is sitting on the golden dragon throne with an unobstructed view, next to him is the big and small Zhou Hou, who are also the two sect masters of the Yin and Yang Sect.

The Yin Yang Sect invested in the King of Zhou before the appearance of Guoding, and the King of Zhou did not know what means he used to rebel against his two wives, and later the Zhou Dynasty purged the Yin and Yang Sect, got rid of the original sect master, and completely controlled the Yin and Yang Sect.

"Ladies and gentlemen." King Zhou's voice was majestic and complacent, staring at the ministers below, as well as several famous and decent people with real power.

Monks from the Yin Yang Sect, the Demon Palace, the Hermit Valley and other places also looked at King Zhou.

King Zhou was nearly sixty years old, and he looked to be only thirty or forty years old, wearing a golden crown of the sun and a pearl night dress that radiated white light.

"I heard that the king of Yue summoned the sages at night, sat down with the heroes of the Yue country and discussed, and discerned state affairs."

"I convened you Aiqing today to listen to your thoughts and thoughts on the general trend of the world, this is a private banquet, you can just speak freely."

Yue Guo has long been the beacon of Dongzhou, not only the fancy clothes and amenities that are more easily accepted by the upper aristocracy, but also many advanced concepts.

Since the beginning of Guoding, the name Yue Guo has continued to take root in the minds of generations of people.

Although there are still people who insult the Yue people and Jiangdong people with barbarians, Yue and Jiangdong are no longer called barbarians.

Especially recently, Chen Taiyi copied poems and sold books, and put the poetry collections he copied in major bookstores, and he has become a lot of fame among literati and ladies, and his fans are all over the world.

The most important thing is the imperial examination system, which cooperates with Chen Taiyi's literary brilliance, so that everyone in the world has a good impression of the country.

Even around King Zhou, there are many people who collect Chen Taiyi's poetry books.

Zhou Wangdu imitated Chen Taiyi and got Zhou Wangding, and there is no psychological burden to continue to imitate.

Zhou Wang Ding is really easy to use, and the whole Zhou country knows how powerful this tripod is, so from top to bottom, they are actually very concerned about the trend and novelty products of Yue Guo.

Sikong, who was in charge of water conservancy, stood up and asked: "Holy Lord, there are many things in the world, including water conservancy, money and grain, military, people, and officials, I don't know where to start?" ”

King Zhou had already wanted to ask, and said directly: "Starting from the general trend of the world in the future, what does Aiqing think about the general trend of the world?" ”

Sikong said frankly: "The minister thinks that the general trend of the world is to gather less into more. ”

"Aiqing sat down and talked in detail, and gave wine." King Zhou waved his hand and ordered the ceremonial officials below to serve wine.

"I can't thank you enough." Sikong bowed, then sat down and waited for the palace maid to drink, then sat up straight and continued to express his opinion.

"The minister is in charge of water conservancy, there has been nothing to do in previous years, and he has always been too peaceful and carefree and lazy, but since the appearance of Guoding, the mountains and rivers have changed, and the aura of heaven and earth has gathered here like a spiritual river."

"The place where the spiritual river gathers, the grass and trees are abundant, and all things grow, and the people gather here to live and work in peace and contentment, and the taxes paid are surplus every year, and the surplus money is used to build water conservancy, and the hunters are hired to drive away the demons who are also attracted by the spiritual energy."

"The more people there are, the more aura there is, and the more and more business travelers are attracted to settle down."

"The wind and rain are the symbol of a strong country, the four seasons change, birth, old age, sickness and death are the legal principles that ordinary people and weak countries should have."

"The minister found that since the beginning of the past two years, the people of the Lu country, the Jiang Jing country, and the Wei country have migrated to my Zhou country."

"The country of Lu has been defeated repeatedly, the national strength is weak and empty, and it has no ability to protect the whole land, and the wise people in the country have long known it and made plans early."

"Since the death of the great general Wei Zheng, many literati and merchants have moved to us, buying land and houses, and bringing gold, silver and jewelry."

"When Jiang Jingguo was breached, many people came to us, and later after it was occupied, many people came."

"Recently, in January, the Yue Kingdom expelled the monks and Buddhas, forcing a large number of monks and Buddhas to begin to take refuge in the Lu State to defend the country, and now the defense of the country has surrendered to the Ten Thousand Buddha Mountain, Leiyin Temple and other Buddhist sects without much effort."

"The monks in our country will be much more honest in the future, this is the luck of the Zhou Kingdom, gathering less into more, indestructible!"

King Zhou smiled, he liked this kind of thing of winning by lying down very much.

The Ignorant Elder of the Yin-Yang Sect suddenly said, "There is something wrong with Sikong's words. ”

King Zhou looked at Ignorance, "What's wrong?" ”

Elder Wuming said: "Yesterday, King Yue dealt with the monk Fadu who offended him at the beginning, and named him Fahai, and ordered him to build a pagoda for him in Donghai City, and he was not to blame for the previous incident, and allowed the monks and Buddhas from all over the country to continue to preach and transform their fate. ”

Sikong looked at Elder Ignorance calmly, "Elder Ignorance has been in the Yin-Yang Sect for a long time, and he doesn't know everything about this outside matter. ”

"What do I not know?" Elder Ignorance looked at Sikong with a cold face, "Please advise!" ”

Sikong is a civil official, and he doesn't have a good impression of these immortal cultivators, and he also knows that these immortal cultivators hate others laughing at them the most, so he put on a positive face.

"King Yue controlled the temples and Taoist temples in various places, not only collected taxes, but also arranged people to enter the temple to keep accounts, the most important thing is that the taxes he set are the same as the taxes of the brothel in the Qinglou, which is clearly humiliating!"

"From the minister's point of view, King Yue humiliated the Buddhists everywhere so much, the Buddhist masters everywhere will definitely not be able to bear it, and they will definitely not let the Yue Kingdom sit big when the time comes!"

King Zhou felt that it made sense, and he quickly had an idea.

"Ignorance, do you think what Sikong said makes sense?"

Wuming said frankly: "Lao Dao has lived in the valley for a long time, and he doesn't know much about the things outside. ”

King Zhou didn't want to hear this, "You concluded that King Yue had an early death, but did you miscalculate?" ”

Ignorance was already a little uncertain at this time, and said stubbornly: "After counting it a few times after that, the king of Yue did have the appearance of an early death, and all kinds of signs are also the appearance of an untimely death. ”

"Not only King Yue, according to some heavenly news, the immortal behind King Yue will not stay for long, and within three months at the latest, he will definitely rush into reincarnation and move to places outside Dongzhou."

King Zhou nodded with satisfaction.

The rest of the people already roughly understood what King Zhou wanted to hear.

"Qi Qi Sheng, now that the Lu country is weak, the defense of the country is empty, the life of the Yue country is not long, and the rest of the small countries are not to worry, the day when the Zhou country will dominate the world is just around the corner!"

"The saint is eloquent, lucky, and has been subdued from all directions since he ascended the throne, sitting on an iron bucket, as if the general trend is in hand today, he should be the king of men!"

King Zhou smiled, and knew that these courtiers were all sycophants, and said with a smile: "You Aiqing has a good reputation, don't talk about these things today, let's talk about how to use this opportunity to strengthen our country's prestige." ”

Neither the big nor the small Zhou spoke, and the two never expressed their opinions when the King of Zhou and the ministers were present.

Sikong said: "The minister thinks that since the king of Yue has driven away the Buddhist monks, we should do the opposite!" ”

"There are mostly demons and monsters in the Yue Kingdom, and the elite ones are the Demon Slaying Legion and the Mechanical Tyrannosaurus. If we can form a warrior monk to fight those demons and monsters, when the time comes, we will definitely smash the long dragon when we meet on the battlefield! ”

King Zhou was said by Sikong and felt that it was indeed necessary.

King Zhou, who has been imitating the Yue Kingdom, said majestically at this time: "The barbarian land of the Yue Kingdom really needs to be educated!" ”
