Chapter 821 Liao Kingdom

Fertility Shenzhou, Qiyao Shenting, is now going on a "farce".

This morning, Wu Ying, Minister of Rites, rejected Huang Xing and Qian Sen's documents for the third time. Then Wu Ying "kindly" pointed out the problem: "The rhetoric you wrote is very gorgeous and the literary talent is brilliant. But the gift of conferring nine tins is not only for your majesty, but also for the people of the whole country.

Therefore, first, the rhetoric is appropriate and immediate, without being too gorgeous.

Second, to have something to say, you must focus on portraying the merits of Zhong Shuling (Junxian), and you must be convincing. "

Seeing Wu Ying's serious explanation, Huang Xing and Qian Sen exploded in anger. Thinking that it would take three to five days to write an essay, Huang Xing couldn't hold back his anger at first, and said with a sinister smile:

"Master Wu, it seems that Master Wu will have opinions on how we write it. In my opinion, Master Wu must write this document himself."

But Wu Ying said solemnly: "I'm afraid it won't work. You must know that the gift of Jiuxi is related to the foundation of the country, and there must be no sloppy. I will write the pen, which is not suitable for etiquette."

Hearing Wu Ying's refusal again, Huang Xing was prepared: "Of course we understand your concern. How about this, we don't need your adult to write, and just ask your adult to help find someone who can write documents."

But Huang Xing was prepared, so how could Wu Ying not be prepared! But seeing Wu Ying smile wryly, she felt a little helpless: "I'm looking for it too, but I've searched for several recently, but they can't write. How about I point out these people?"

As she spoke, Wu Ying glanced across the group of officials, and some of them flickered.

Seeing this situation, Huang Xing immediately understood - Wu Ying has no gaps at all. Look at the twinkling eyes of some more literary officials around you, and you will understand: People really look for it, but these officials seem to really be unable to write. Not only can't write now, but I probably won't be able to write in the future!

But the above is only on the surface, what's deeper is - before Huang Xing finds these people, Wu Ying has already given these people a 'disaster', making them 'completely unable' to write documents.

However, Wu Ying's actions seemed normal, and it was weird to think about it; but after thinking about it, there was no clue.

'Old fox! ’ Huang Xing gritted his teeth in hatred. Huang Xing is now 90% sure that Wu Ying, Minister of Rituals, definitely did it on purpose, and Wu Ying is definitely against Jun Xian getting the 'Nine Tin' award. But compared to other opposition groups, Wu Ying's actions are not warm.

When other opposition groups continued to clamor, Wu Ying remained silent, seemingly acquiescing to what Junxian did.

When other opposition groups turned into loess, Wu Ying remained silent, as if she had resigned herself to her fate.

However, when the matter reached a critical moment, Wu Ying still did not 'do nothing'. But this inaction just stuck the neck of all Junxian's plans!

Jiuxi is a great ceremony, and it must be announced to the whole country; this etiquette is so grand, so only people with high morals and high officials can undertake the work of "master of ceremonies". In the entire Qiyao Divine Court, the most famous one is none other than Wu Ying, Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites!

Being able to serve as Minister of Rites, Wu Ying's ability, influence, virtue, etc., naturally cannot be ignored.

Now, Wu Ying suddenly made a soft knife at this critical moment, and Junxian who was stuck was weak.

Wu Ying made it clear that she was saying: I won't let you live, if you have the ability, come and kill me again!

At the beginning, Situ Yuanhang, the commander of Zhongshu before Junxian, was framed by Junxian and offended Qiyao Shenting. In order to keep his family, Situ Yuanhang had to crash to death on the pillar of the main hall.

But Wu Ying is not, Wu Ying's family can be said to be a scholarly family, inheriting Confucianism, and has far-reaching influence. The history of the Wu family even exceeds that of Qiyao Shenting; its influence is beyond description.

Heirloom of generals will not have good results in most cases.

However, a scholarly family can often spread its branches and leaves, forming an intricate network of relationships. It can be said unceremoniously that the Wu family is the teacher of Confucianism in the entire Qiyao Shenting; they are highly respected and can be said to be a model for the whole country.

In a word, as long as you Junxian still wants to gain a foothold in Qiyao Shenting, the Wu family will not be able to move! Not only can't move, but also win over with good words.

It's a dead end. Because of morality, virtue, influence, etc., forcing Junxian to find a breakthrough from Wu Ying herself.

If Junxian dares to use any other means, it will only make this deadlock get stronger and stronger, and eventually collapse completely——when this deadlock collapses, the Qiyao Shenting will probably collapse too, and Junxian is really a bamboo basket It was a waste of time to fetch water, and the bamboo basket was soaked.

Huang Xing and Qian Sen thought of it, and of course Jun Xian thought of it too. However, the longer the delay, the more variables there will be. This Jiuxi trick cannot be dragged on for too long.

And the new emperor Dongfang Jue, who had been somewhat desperate, suddenly had a ray of hope in his eyes.

At this time, the atmosphere in the hall began to become strange, the eyes of some ministers began to flicker, hope bloomed in the eyes of some ministers, and some ministers showed murderous intent towards Wu Ying.

Gradually, everyone secretly looked sideways at Junxian, but Junxian didn't seem to notice it, and the old god was still studying the dust.

Suddenly, His Majesty the Emperor spoke, "Let's stop here today, and discuss it tomorrow. Retire!"

After all, the emperor is the emperor, and if His Majesty has spoken, naturally he can only retreat. Junxian didn't speak, just walked out of the hall quietly; from beginning to end, Junxian didn't say a word, didn't even look up, as if he just came to rest his eyes with his eyes closed.

But Junxian's attitude made all the officials and even the emperor tremble with fear, but he was also a little bit happy. Needless to say, it seemed that the old bastard was not in a hurry. As for joy, it's simple—is he pretending to be deep? In fact, there is nothing to do?

Amid such speculations, this court will end in a weird way.

…………

But it is said that in the north of Yingzhou, there is a vast grassland; a powerful country was born here-the Liao Kingdom!

In the past, because the distance was too far, the Liao Kingdom was farther away from the Shang Dynasty than the Zhao Kingdom. In addition, the news in the north was blocked, and there was very little communication.

Until recently, the Shang Dynasty did not know that there was a powerful country in the north. And this was learned through the Yaozu. Afterwards, of course, the Shang Dynasty also sent some "secret spies" to collect information.

Now that the Shang Dynasty has a certain understanding of the Liao Kingdom, they feel that there must be exchange value again, so they finally sent envoys, the elites of the Shang Dynasty represented by Xiao Liming.

But because of the current shortage of aerospace aircraft carriers, Xiao Liming and his party did not take the aerospace aircraft carrier, but took a passenger plane modified from the latest medium-sized and fast military transport aircraft, and ten fighter jets escorted them. The escorting fighter jets were from the Heavenly Tribulation Special Forces, led by Chi Qingfeng.

After several days of flying, the visiting team landed outside the Great Wall of Liao in the south of the border according to formal etiquette, and presented their credentials.

Needless to say, the surprise of the border generals of the Liao Kingdom is needless to say. The sudden appearance of a plane, or a visit from the Shang Dynasty 300,000 to 40,000 miles away, shocked the border generals of the Liao Kingdom.

Finally, the border generals saw that the missions of the Shang Dynasty were completely in line with etiquette, so they reported it layer by layer. But calculated at the fastest speed, it would take more than a day to travel from the border to the imperial capital of the Liao Kingdom. Therefore, for the time being, the generals at the border can only arrange Xiao Liming and a few others to rest temporarily in the general's mansion at the border.

As for most people in the Shang Dynasty, they stayed in the wild to prevent being taken over by others. Of course, it is also a friendly expression-our main military force stays outside the border defense.

Xiao Liming was bold, so he took a few entourages and entered the general's mansion to live.

The frontier general entertained Xiao Liming with a 'milk tiger', a fully roasted suckling tiger. This little baby tiger actually already has a heart of precious light, and it is a white tiger bloodline with relatively pure blood!

Seeing this situation, Xiao Liming knew in his heart that the Liao Kingdom was probably not a puppet of the Yaozu, otherwise the Yaozu would not be willing to use this relatively pure blood for acting. Of course, it's only relative.

Later, Xiao Liming also saw some cavalry from the Liao Kingdom. This was the first time Xiao Liming saw cavalry.

Once, Xiao Liming also saw that although the countries around the Shang Dynasty had horses, real war horses with a certain foundation were very rare, and they could not form cavalry at all. However, if it is an ordinary horse, it can't meet the needs of the battlefield. It only needs an ordinary formation or spell like dragon roar and tiger roar, and all the horses will be so frightened that their legs will go weak.

Therefore, most countries do not have cavalry. But in Liao Kingdom, Xiao Liming saw real cavalry. But the cavalry here are not horses, and of course they are not dragon horses or the like, but - wolves!

These wolves are no smaller than horses, and some wolves are even taller than ordinary horses; some mount wolves even exude the breath of the foundation period.

Xiao Liming observed for a long time, and also made side-steps, and got a surprising result-this Liao country can raise wolves! This can also explain the source of the Liao cavalry.

While communicating, inspecting, and collecting information here; I didn't expect that early the next morning, there would be a master of the transformation of the gods flying in from Shuozhou City, the imperial capital of the Liao Kingdom. Looks very anxious.

This is a rather old-fashioned man with rather simple clothes. Around his neck is a necklace made of animal teeth, which adds a bit of barbaric simplicity.

Seeing this person, the border general who was talking with Xiao Liming immediately stood up and bowed respectfully, "I have seen the prophet."

This is the prophet? Xiao Liming hurriedly got up to greet him. From the conversation last night, Xiao Liming learned that the physique and even the names of officials in the Liao Kingdom are completely different from those in the central and southern parts of Yingzhou.

The national teacher of the Liao Kingdom is a prophet. The grand master of the Liao Kingdom was named Yu Yue. The Taiwei of the Liao Kingdom was called Yi Li Jin. There are also two phases in the Liao Kingdom, the North and the South.

The Northern Prime Minister is in charge of the military, including the guarding of the imperial capital, and is directly responsible to the emperor. Work alone, the office address is 'North Privy Council'.

Nanxiang is responsible for politics, civil affairs, officials, etc., and is directly responsible to the emperor; he also works alone, and his office is in the "South Privy Council".

The imperial palace is in the center of the North and South Privy Councils, and the guards are strictly guarded.

In addition, in the Liao Kingdom, the status of the prophet is very honorable, and can even influence the decision-making of the emperor; this is not available in other countries.

The Prophet nodded and waved to the general; the general retreated immediately. Then he waved to the surroundings, and all the guards retreated. In the room, only the prophet and Xiao Liming were left.

At this time, the Prophet looked at Xiao Liming with a half-smile, and instead of having some basic communication first, he opened his mouth and said: "Although I sit in the ninth-five position, I don't have the honor of the ninth-five. Hey, sometimes there must be something in life, and there must be something in life." Don't force it.

Many people know this sentence, but never believe it. Even if the head was smashed, I still don't believe in fate! "

Xiao Liming's eyes narrowed slightly, and he couldn't see any mood. In fact, Xiao Liming really wanted to strangle this bastard prophet to death. It's just on the surface, but he asked very curiously: "Fate? I seem to have heard of it."

"This is a statement discovered by the ancestors of the Liao Kingdom, and it is also a statement that was discovered from the complicated inheritance of the human race in the past.

Generally speaking, astrologers will pay attention to some matters of fate. Astrologers divide fate into three main levels, corresponding to the stars in the sky, namely: the upper-class Zhou Tian Xing Dou, which is Xingjun; the middle Huiyuan Xing Dou , is a star official; there are countless inferior galactic stars.

But this kind of classification of fate is too simple and too rough. It is believed that it should be like this by nature, and that fate has high and low. "

"Oh..." Xiao Liming raised his eyebrows, "Isn't there no high or low fate?"

The Prophet smiled slightly: "Yes, in the inheritance of our Liao Kingdom and the northern countries, it is generally believed that fate represents a mission, that's all; different fates represent different missions. it works!

The so-called high and low is just that we "measure the will of God with human will", and this is the difference between high and low. "

"So that's how it is!" Xiao Liming's tone was quite sincere. This brand-new vision gave Xiao Liming a completely different life inspiration.

After staying for a while, the prophet finally spoke about state affairs. "This time I am here, on the one hand, I want to see how the envoys of the Shang Dynasty are. We also learned from the Yaozu at first that there was a powerful Shang Dynasty in the east of Yingzhou, and the Yaozu who defeated them were defeated. 'The words trembled.

The second is to express the sincerity of our Liao country.

Thirdly, since the old man is a prophet, I will also drop by to see if your visit is benign or malicious. "

"Oh..." Xiao Liming looked at the prophet with a half-smile.

The Prophet also smiled slightly: "I can see that you are not all for the so-called business world as the outside legend says; but I can also see that generally speaking, you are still kind.

You have certain calculations, which is normal and I can tolerate it. So, can I check it out on the plane now? "

Xiao Liming looked at the prophet, his eyes became serious for the first time. At first, Xiao Liming thought that the so-called prophet was just a position, similar to Ling Zhifeng, the national teacher of the Shang Dynasty, who was only responsible for some special things.

But now it seems that the situation is not right. This prophet seems to have many strange abilities. Among other things, this pair of eyes made Xiao Liming's hair stand on end.

This is definitely not the ability of an orthodox cultivator!
