Chapter 66 Pro-government?

"The king gave me a gift!" After Xiong Jing finished speaking, the gurus beside him shouted the gift - in the Central Plains, the Emperor of Zhou gave me a gift from Chu, but in the entire south, the Chu state gave me a gift to the tribes that came to pay tribute. In the past, they had a piece of bacon, and a few pieces of bai silk were sent to the envoys (a tribe that was too small might not even give me a gift), but today the King of Chu gave me ten treasure knives, and the envoys were grateful and wanted to fly back to the tribe to report the news now.

After the gift, the banquet is below. The main Yan Dynasty is not small. Apart from the atrium in the middle, the halls on all sides can also be held in the halls on all sides; the same is true for the main Dynasty. Compared with the wide atrium, the surrounding halls are only a quarter of the width. In addition, the room between the halls and the court, the room between the halls, and the rooms on both sides of the halls, it is not difficult to set up banquets for thousands of people in both dynasties.

The bells and cauldrons were lit in the palace, and the court outside the thatched gate was finally open to the common people. People danced around the witches dancing beside the fire, and they also danced. In addition to the court, the market behind the palace, the east city and the west city, were lit with a little wider place. No one stayed at home, and they were cheering outside to celebrate the good times. The only regret was that all the men and women went on a war, except for the officials and the craftsmen in Yingdu, all men went to war, so that they could not see the joy of men and women on carnival nights.

"The army of Chu is still in Chengyang, and it is reported that he has agreed to a water battle with Qin. After the water battle, he will die with blood." He did not go to the court with the common people to join in the fun. Xiandui and Bai Yi and others only took a quick look in Yingdu City. Among the countries in the world, only Chu State sacrificed at night. Ancient rumors indicate that the sacrificial cow used for the first sacrifice after the founding of the State of Chu was stolen, so all the sacrifices were made at night.

"The king has been envoyed by Qin and will not join the lord with Chu and Zhao. Today, only Chu and Qi can get peace. Zixian, when will we meet the King of Chu?" Before Bai Yi entered Chu, he had already learned that Wei State would not participate in the lord. Wei State did not join the lord, and Qin State made peace with Chu State, so the unlucky one would be Zhao State.

When Bai Yi said that he would meet the King of Chu, Yizan, Ziliao, Kong Xiang and others looked at Xiangao. Everyone came to Chu because Xiandui could meet the King of Chu. If they couldn't see it, then this time it would be Bai.

"After the La Festival, you can see the King of Chu." Xiandu himself couldn't figure out when it was, but the words that came from the palace were like this.

"After the La Festival, the King of Chu wanted to meet the honorary soldiers in the army, and said he would have a banquet for ten days." Yizan shook his head repeatedly, not expecting it.

The people of Chu must be crazy. The soldiers who died in battle said that they would be buried in Yingdu. It would be a huge sum of gold if 30,000 to 40,000 people were buried. The coffin was only 300 to 400 yuan. The key was that the deceased had to bury twenty-nine pieces of clothing, which was enough to be buried in such a way. Although one piece of clothing was less than a hundred yuan, twenty-nine pieces would cost thousands of yuan. If it was buried like this, it would cost at least 20,000 yuan.

This is the case when you are buried and rewarded. The army is all in Chengyang. Instead of sending wine and food to reward, the people who are tired of money and have to be rewarded will all be rewarded to Yingdu for a banquet. Moreover, it will be a banquet in the palace for ten days. How much does it cost!

Only by being diligent and frugal can you manage your family. Yi's family's wealth is inseparable from frugality. Of course, he is not as frugal as Cao Bing in Lu. As the saying goes, "There is a pick-up on the side, and there is a pick-up on the side," Cao Bing asked his family to gain something in every move, otherwise he would not move. Today, La Saint-scholars invited Cao Bingyi to go out to see, but Cao Bingyi said that it was profitable and that he would not go out.

Yizan shouted in his heart that the Chu people were prodigal, but he was just a Wei Shang, not a Chu minister, so he could only shout and shake his head. When he mentioned the palace banquet, Xiandu immediately wiped his sweat and said, "Even if the banquet lasts for ten days, we can see the King of Chu again in ten days."

"Ten days later, it was the beginning of the year. The King of Chu was newly established and the courtesy of the temple should be performed." Bai Yizu was a minister of the Wei State and had a deep understanding of state affairs than Xiandui and others. "Since the La Festival was the King of Chu, the King of Chu would have to take charge of the government after the temple was seen. At the beginning of the throne, there were many national affairs. If we were to see us, we would probably be between spring and summer."

When Yizan heard that meeting was about to be in spring and summer, she was suddenly disappointed. Instead of doing this, she might as well return to Wei first and come to Chu State again at the turn of spring and summer. Thinking so, Zi Liao said, "Why is the King of Chu really the ruler?"

"Why can you be worshipped or soldiered, why can't you be in charge of the rule?" Bai Yi has family traditions and has a very high understanding of politics.

"A man was twenty years old, which is a ritual." Zi Liao tried to refute from the standpoint of the opponent. "Even the King of Qin was crowned and ruled by the time he was twenty-two. The rebellion of Lao Ai and the resignation of Wen Xinhou were all related to this. The King of Chu ruled before he was in charge, and there must be dissatisfaction in the court."

"Zi Liao has been in Guigu for a long time, but the teacher has not told me the difference between Qin and Chu?" Bai Yi asked with a smile. He knew where Zi Liao's teacher went out.

"The family teacher has not spoken, nor has the classics in the valley seen. However," Zi Liao said, "Even if the power of Chu is mostly in counties and towns, and the King of Chu is in charge of power before he is in power, it will be opposed by the court officials. This move is a great violation of etiquette and law!"

"The King of Chu said: I am a barbarian!" Bai Yi smiled even more. He liked the King of Chu more and more. "Etiquette and law are the laws of the people of Zhou. The people of Chu were originally barbarians, so how could they perform the Zhou rituals? On the banks of the Qingshui River, the King of Chu lived and died with his soldiers. After the war, he spent a lot of money to bury the soldiers who died in battle. Now he has a banquet for another ten days and has made merit in rewards. Zi Liao thought that which minister dared to rebel against the King of Chu?

When Huang Xie was the chief minister, everyone in Chu knew that Chu had a chief minister but did not know that Chu had a king. However, Huang Xie died, all the fiefs in Wu were collected, and countless disciples were lost, and Chunshen Jun was just like this. Even Chunshen Jun was like this, what could the other court officials and nobles do? They dare not allow the King of Chu to rule in charge? Why don’t they allow the King of Chu to rule in charge?”

'I am a barbarian!' It seems like a stick in the head, and with one stick, it beat Zi Liao from the Zhou Li world to the barbarian world. Indeed, his reason is just the twenty-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-two-t

"Does the King of Chu want to practice Qin's laws?" Zi Liao felt more excited when he was awakened. He was alone by nature, and when he was studying, he wanted to achieve the great cause of his elder brother. If he could be valued by the King of Chu, he would be able to achieve great cause.

"If the Chu State is in charge of the rule, it is not a reform, and the Chu State is not a Three Jin." Bai Yi knew Zi Liao's thoughts, "If the Chu State practices Qin law, it will not follow the Chu ministers, and the common people will not follow it. If they are in charge, they will complain about evildoers. If they make mistakes, they will be a treasure, armor, shield, and no money to be born, and they will become official slaves. If they are in a serious manner, they will be tattooed, slayed, and palaces, and even if they are in a beheaded cart.

What are the people of Chu? If you have the Tao, you will be convinced, and if you have no Tao, you will be rebelled first. This is the people of Chu. According to Han Fei's books, most of the people of Chu are five worms. Zi Liao thought that the King of Chu could clear the five worms and then get faster?"

"How about Nanjun?" Zi Liao entered Chu shortly after he entered Chu, and he had not yet known the habits of the people of Chu, but he saw an example of Nanjun. "Nanjun was originally the old Ying land of Chu State, so why did Qin law be practiced now?"

"Is Nanjun really practicing the Qin method?" Bai Yi looked at Zi Liao with a little regret. "It is Nanjun that practices Qin method. Zi Liao knows how many people in Nanjun killed people? How many people moved? Today, Nanjun is no longer the old Ying land of Chu State, but only a county of Qin State. If Chu State implements Qin method, if the Chu State cannot kill all the nobles, they will also move all the nobles. After the nobles leave, they will still have to clear the five worms in the country. In this way, Qin State will do it.

The world today is not the world of Shangjun, and the Chu State does not have the danger of Qin State Wu Han. Wei State is now following Qin State, and Qin State Wei and Qi State are all enemy countries for Chu. During the reform, chaos in Chu is endless. If there is any war, it is actually vulnerable. Zi Liao thought that the King of Qin would sit down and watch Chu State reform and strengthen? The opportunity for Chu State's reform was only before King Wei of Chu, and there was no possibility of reform afterwards."

Perhaps because they were both Wei people, Zi Liao always felt that Qin was stronger because of reforms. If Chu could practice reforms, even if it would not defeat Qin and be alone, it would still be possible to survive alone. His ideas would not be right or wrong, but there was always a bit of wishful thinking.

The State of Chu is no longer a strong country. Even if it is a strong country, the reform must have a favorable environment. It is best to have a natural danger that one man can pass through thousands of men. These Chu countries have no such thing as any reform. The reform will definitely cause unrest, and Wei and Qi may take the opportunity to send troops. This is a precedent; even if the reform does not cause chaos, the Qin State will attack the people of Chu to promote chaos. This is also a precedent.

——The Chu-Qin War that occurred this year, Bai Yi believed that this was a war that promoted chaos when the Qin State took advantage of the death of King Lie of Chu and the crown prince was not established. King Lie of Chu was worried and heard about it during the spring and summer season, and Qin State of course also knew this news. The dispatch of troops should be to support a prince ascend to the throne and become king, so that Chu and Qin will have a good relationship with each other from now on. Chu will no longer save Zhao, and Qin can calmly destroy Zhao.

However, the matter was beyond the control of Qin. The most obvious thing was that the current King of Chu was surrounded by rebels in Yingdu. He actually defeated 5,000 rebels by twelve palace armor, forcing the rebel general Jing Hua to flee to another country. The prince Fu Chu who voluntarily buried his father for his father was also deeply suspicious of this: there has been no aristocrats who have been buried with him for hundreds of years. How could he suddenly die a prince? The most reasonable explanation is that the prince Fu Chu colluded with the Qin people and rebelled while the king's soldiers were not in Yingdu. Unexpectedly, the rebels were defeated and the prince was not dead.

In the Battle of Qingshui, the Chu army actually won. If the Chu army was defeated, Xixian might be able to be preserved, but Chengyang would definitely not be able to be preserved. Chengyang and even Xixian might be the gifts given to Qin by Fu Chu ascended the throne and the king. This transaction was also defeated by the current King of Chu.

Bai Yi described the reason why Chu State could not change Qin's law. But as he talked about the news he had obtained during this period, he instantly outlined a huge but unsuccessful conspiracy in his heart. Although Zi Liao was wishful thinking, he was naturally extremely smart when he could enter Guigu to learn. He could not help but feel disappointed when he figured out the links: If Chu State did not change the law, what could he do to the King of Chu?

Under the bonfire, the court was as bright as day. At this time, the witches had left, the women were making noise around the fire, and the children were running through the crowd. In the palace, the etiquette that the courtiers had adhered to before was gone. The actors who were performing music were pulled into the ceremonies from time to time, forcing them to drink with them. More people gathered together to travel, and shouted and regretful when winning or losing filled the entire hall.
