Snow is flying in the north, and Chu State is chilling suddenly.

Although the maple leaves are not dyed overnight like the northern country, the autumn in the south is also a layer of autumn rain and cool. The autumn is getting worse and worse, the cicadas are getting more and more sparse, the fallen leaves are getting more and more, and the lotus leaves are getting worse and worse; the fields, mountains, palaces and gardens are full of autumn colors.

But the weather is just the weather, and this autumn is not different from the previous autumn. However, there are constant reports of victories in front of us: the king defeated the Qin people in Handan, and the Qin people retreated overnight when they heard the news; the Queen Mother Zhao, the King of Zhao, was about to move south to Chu and live in the north city of Daliang;

In addition to the war report, there were several lively events. A few days ago, Yu Yin Sun Yu reported to the Empress Dowager that the Dongzhou Valley was prosperous this year, and a large acre of grain was obtained, and the Zhenchao asked the Dongzhou Valley to be planted all over the Dongzhou Valley after harvesting millet this year.

A large acre of 240 steps, and a large acre of 1,000 jin is converted into a small acre of more than 400 Chujin, which is basically the same as the yield of millet. However, the advantage of Dongzhou Valley is that it can also grow grains in places where wheat cannot be planted. After harvesting millet, the harvest will be twice as many grains as in previous years.

Food is the most important thing for the people. Yu Yin reported good deeds, and Zaofu made something that had never been in the world. The steam engine that used to roar day and night in the north of the city actually came out on this day. The thing was smoking, squirting fire, and whispering white air and thrusting with big belly. On that day, Yingdu was empty all over the streets, and all the nobles and common people saw it. Queen Mother Zhao Ji, Queen Mi Xuan, and concubines and princesses also left the royal city and went to the market to see it.

It is said that this kind of thing that can walk by itself is called "Fu Yao Horse". As long as carbonite is added to its stomach, it can pull carts and help people work. Nowadays, carbonite, iron ore, copper ore, boat building factory, and weaving workshop are all these things, but this is the first time I have come out, so the whole city has caused a sensation.

There are many skilled craftsmen in the country of Lu. Legend has it that the Gongshu team once built a wooden magpies, which flew in the sky for three days and three nights without falling. Now it is not surprising that it has created a "Fu Want Horse" that can walk by itself. However, it is really earth-shaking when the "Fu Want Horse" moves, with great appearance and great strength. If you stop, you can use the power of twenty-two horses; if you go while walking, you can also use the power of six or seven horses.

Dongzhou Valley made the Chu people stable, "not want horses" surprised the Chu people, and the King's wedding at the end of the year made the Chu people sincerely happy. The war on the front line did not panic as a few years ago. Instead, because of the war, the price of millet in the market rose to sixty cents.

During the harvest season, the price of millet was high. The farmers benefited, and the feud with Qi State caused the domestic silk and linen prices to rise sharply, and hundreds of workers made more profits than usual. The price of cloth soared, and it was often difficult to find cloth in the market. Most of the common people who had to buy steps had to wait first, or wait for the sea boat to transport Indian cotton cloth, or wait for the Chu-Qi relations to restore Qi State to transport linen to Chu State again.

This is of course the best era: the Chu army is invincible and conquered cities and land; the grains are harvested year by year, and the farmers have more than their pockets; countless skilled craftsmen in the palace are emerging one after another; sea boats connect overseas, cotton, female slaves, butter, sugar, jade produced from India, ivory, tortoiseshell, rhinoceros horns produced from the Persian Gulf, date wine produced from the Persian Gulf, and wine transported from the Mediterranean region..., all kinds of goods filled the Chu market, enriching the lives of the Chu people.

But this is only a part of the life of the Chu people, the material part. The spiritual part lies in a large number of classic works from India, Persia, Greece, and Egypt translated by the Lantai Palace. The ideas of the East and the West collided in the Royal Academy of Lantai Palace. The debates and speeches in the academy are no longer bound by ethics, but also involve logic, science, law, and politics.

Because of their admiration for fire, the Greek drama "Prometheus" was also translated. Last year Qu Sui suggested that Wang Ting order Hai Zhou to bring back Bai Dichangyou who can perform dramas and let them perform this "Prometheus" in the palace to see what Zhurong in the West looks like.

"World", a word that is parallel to the world but is extremely difficult to pronounce is increasingly mentioned by the people of Chu. As a tool to connect the world and the world, the sea boat is increasingly cherished by the people of Chu. However, Lanhua Palace under the autumn rain is about to become the queen of Chu. Mi Xuan, who is in charge of the world's largest merchant fleet, sat in the room, with a look of sadness.

As a bride who is about to marry, she is happy. Life seems to be in honey, and the dreams are full of sweet tastes; however, as a daughter, she is worried. Although Xiong Jing moved the entire Mi clan back to Chu State and placed it in the empty Jinling City, his father, who was on a mission to Chu State, returned to Qin State with Uncle Ji. Because Ji was broken into a car, his father was sent to the prison of Tingwei Mansion.

"What else does that person have?" Mi Xuan wiped away her tears and asked again.

"Report to the female young master, he only said this, but he still didn't know..." The person who spoke was Mi Qi, the chief of the Mi family. Through the Wei Kingdom, some news about Mi Ren came from time to time. Every time he came, he would go to the palace to inform Mi Xuan, and this time was no exception.

"If you don't harm my husband, you will have something to ask for." Mi Xuan understood the reason why these news came. This is not the first time that the threat from Qin State was threatened. Last time in Shangcai, his father personally told the State Wei Mansion that he wanted the Mi family. If not, he would have to punish the entire clan, punish the ghost's salary, and move to Shu.

"The king loves the female princess very much. If you report this to the king, or..." Mi Qi expressed his idea.

"No." Mi Xuan shook his head: "The king is busy with state affairs, how can I make the king worry about his affairs again?"

"What should I do if I don't tell the king?" Mi Qi said inexplicably. "Only the king can save him."

This is a battle between countries, and it is not something that a third-rate clan like the Mi family can handle. Mi Xuan was silent because she knew this. Seeing that she stopped talking, Mi Qi wanted to give advice a few more words, but finally sighed and stood up to say goodbye.

"Tell the Queen," as soon as Mi Qi left, the temple man from the Ministry of Clothing came in and bowed. "Please ask the Queen to try out the wedding clothes."

The maid has already sent her robe from the wedding. Xuan represents the heaven and symbolizes the mysterious secret of heaven. Among all the colors, Xuan is the most noble, so the robe of the king is all mysterious. Xuan is the surface of the robe, and the inside is white plain gauze, which is even more vivid.

The colorful birds are not small, dense, and neatly embroidered and engraved on the garments. It was just the twisted imagination of the people of the Song Dynasty after Qin and the Queen of Qin. The queen of the pre-Qin Dynasty was opposite to the king's Dagon crown. The Dagon crown was embroidered with dragons, mountains, flower insects, fire, Zongyi, algae, powder rice, sun, moon, morning and other twelve chapter patterns, and the queen's garments were embroidered with twelve birds.

The Chu people who love beauty did not completely follow the Zhou rituals. Zhai Niao was regarded as a phoenix and a phoenix. Just one of them was exaggeratedly embroidered the whole robe. The female official in the robe helped Mi Xuan put on the robe and repair her hair. She was wearing the robe and clad her hair. When she walked to Lu Li's mirror, Mi Xuan stared at her beautiful eyes, unable to believe that the person in the mirror was herself. Xuanyi Cai Zhai and Gao Punishmeijia, she suddenly turned into a phoenix bird.

In the mirror, beauty has been quietly hidden, and dignity is everywhere. Whether beauty is beautiful is no longer important, it is the pursuit of concubines and beauties. For the queen, the most important thing is dignity and majesty.

"This dress..." Mi Xuan felt a little dizzy as soon as she spoke. She was not a strict person, but wearing this dress, she seemed to have become her aunt Mi Ji. Every move and every word determines the life and death of countless people and the fate of the country.

"Is the queen dissatisfied?" Si Yi was very satisfied with the effect of Mi Xuan's trial. When Shi Yi and Mi Xuan matched her, she could wear the majesty of the queen.

"This garment..." Mi Xuan did not look at Lu Lijing again. From Que Di to the garment, from the benefactor to the queen, although she was mentally prepared, she still couldn't accept this change when she saw herself wearing the garment. In more than a month, she would marry Xiong Jing.

"My daughter, I have heard that no one knows when the King of Chu will return to Yingdu, but..." Mi Xuan tried out in Lanhua Palace. Outside the palace, the tramp in the autumn rain seemed a little deserted. It was not the season for sea boats to return, and most of the tramp in Yingdu were empty.

When the maid was talking, Gongsun Yan couldn't help but feel a little disappointed. She had been running around for the past few months just to meet Xiong Jing. However, the king's itinerary was beyond what she, a daughter from other countries, could not tell her. Moreover, this matter was too confidential, and she could not tell Zhongshu Gongsun Mao, so she could only break around like a headless fly.

With the identity of the niece of Gongsun Mao, the governor of Shangcai County, she traveled between Yingdu, Nanyang and Daliang for several months. She either missed it with Xiong Jing or was in front of her. Thinking of Xiong Jing's wedding in December and moving the capital to Jiying in November, she simply waited in Yingdu. During this period, some news about Xiong Jing's whereabouts can be seen from the news of the Great Chu.

"Just how?" Gongsun Yan could drink. Gongsun's family has many sources of chaos. As long as his ancestors were called Gongsun, their descendants could have Gongsun.

"It's just that someone in the restaurant said that King Zhao was about to come to Daliang, and King Chu should go to Daliang with King Zhao." The maid said. "It's better to go to Daliang again than to be in Yingdu. If the King of Chu is in Daliang, you can see him. If the King of Chu is not in Daliang, it's not too late to return to Yingdu again."

What the maid said was completely reasonable, but when she thought of seeing Xiong Jing soon, Gongsun Yan suddenly became a little dazed. She had not yet thought about what to say to Xiong Jing, was she saying that the queen was coerced by the Qin people to harm him? Or would she express her longing and tell him that she would be his envoy?

Will he believe in himself? Will he think that he was so obedient to be his young envoy and deliberately slander the queen? If he doesn't believe in it, what should he do?

Thinking of these questions, Gongsun Yan couldn't help but be dazed. In fact, she couldn't tell why she wanted to see Xiong Jing. She had longing for her and wanted to guard her. She really had to distinguish the two clearly, but she couldn't do it at all. But for Xiong Jing believed that she had no other purpose, she would rather not be his envoy.
