Great Qin had a prosperous age

Chapter 657 Jiangdong Chess Game (please give me a monthly recommendation ticket!)

At the end of October, the autumn rain continued.

On this day, the sky was covered with dark clouds and there were very few people on the road.

It was supposed to be sunrise, but now all we could see was gray everywhere.

Xiao He put on dark gray uniforms and a hair crown. Looking from a distance, although he was not as noble as a prince, he had a different kind of majesty.

Xiao He looked at the bronze mirror for a long time, his face was serious, and there was no sign of relaxation at all.

Sun Ao had already changed his clothes and suddenly walked in and stood beside him.

Xiao He was extremely excited when he saw Sun Ao coming. He pulled him to the seat and said with great admiration:
"Sure enough, sir, I got the news that not only the prince is going to the crowning ceremony today, but also the general Zhao Tuo."

"The Duke now knows that he trusts me."

"I blame Xiao He for being naive, not having a broad vision, and not being able to make long-term plans. Please don't blame Mr. Sun. Xiao He will definitely do whatever Mr. Sun says in the future."

"Young Lord, eat the king's salary, and take care of the king's worries. I am a guest in the military mansion, and I want to work for the king. These are trivial things."

Sun Ao whispered:
"I hope you will remember what I said to the Duke a few days ago. Now I heard from the Duke that even General Zhao Tuo is here. For this crowning ceremony, I have invited those in positions of power from all the counties in Jiangdong. This matter is no small matter, does the person from Xianyang City really know nothing about it?"

"It's just a pity that I am of low status and have no accurate information from Xianyang City, so I can only make a guess. I just want to remind the Duke again and again that when you come to the door of the Yu family's house, you must check it out."

Xiao He asked:

"How do you say that, sir?"

"If there is a banquet after the coronation ceremony, and the Duke is invited to be with him, that would be fair and aboveboard. This matter is the instruction of His Majesty. If there is no banquet after the coronation ceremony, I am afraid there is another mystery involved. The Duke must not put himself in trouble. If you get mixed up in it, it’s hard to get out.”

There is another mystery behind this. Although it has not been revealed, it is simply a conspiracy to rebel.

All the governors and lieutenants of the six counties in Guandong were beheaded, which shocked the world. As a governor, he was naturally afraid.Now, with the same thing happening in front of him, Xiao He naturally felt timid.

Moreover, this matter involved two extremely special people. One was the general in charge of the army, Zhao Tuo, and the other was a relative of the emperor.

If you don't go, it will be difficult for you to be a good person in the future. If you go, you will be afraid of danger.

The difficulty of the matter suddenly increased, which was far beyond Xiao He's ability and could not be weighed by one person.

"There is only one prince who has threatened to recommend me several times and has already caused me trouble. If something like this happens again now, I will really feel uneasy."

"Your Majesty, don't be afraid. I heard that His Majesty once gave the Duke a sword. This time, you can take this sword with you. If something important happens, you will have something to support you."

"Watching the ceremony with a sword, I have never heard of it!"

A civil servant comes over with a sword, what do people think?
Xiao He kept shaking his head.

After hearing this, Sun Ao said:

"My lord, is the sword given by the emperor still a sword?"

"Isn't it a sword?"

"It looks like a sword, but in fact it is the emperor's trust. The county prince holds the emperor's trust, so why should he hold a murder weapon?"

After hearing this, Xiao He only said:
"It's also true."

The servants outside the door have already prepared the carriages and horses, and the drivers have also been selected to be middle-aged and experienced, with almost no mistakes.

After a sound of footsteps, a message came from outside:

"My lord, all the carriages, horses and gifts have been prepared. We are just waiting for the lord to go out. It will rain today and the road will be slippery, so we need to leave half an hour in advance."

Xiao He opened the door,
"I know, come out right now."

"only!"

Xiao He turned around and pulled Sun Tong back.
"Sir, it would be best if you join me this time."

Sun Tong had already put on his clothes, just to wait for this big scene.Celebrities from Jiangdong will come to this banquet, which is a great opportunity for him to raise his reputation for Xiao He.

Sun Tong pretended to decline, and then went out with Xiao He.

……

……

……

Cars have already gathered in front of the Yu Mansion.

This coronation ceremony was carefully prepared by the Yu family, just waiting for the second generation to come to power and the youngest son of the Yu family to turn 20 years old.That’s why today’s scene is so spectacular.

The grandness of the scene was beyond everyone's expectation.

Xiao He's carriage is too simple in comparison.

But isn’t this Xiao He?
The head of the Yu clan, Marquis Yu, wore dark red and black clothes today and was waiting at the door early with a huge white jade crown on his head.

A family that has been passed down for 2000 years has to spend all its money to support today's situation.

"Hou Chang pays homage to the Duke of the county. The Duke of the county can come today, it really makes Hou Chang's humble house full of splendor."

As he spoke, Marquis Yu glanced at the sword tied to Xiao He's waist.

"Wherever, the Yu clan has a bloodline that lasts for thousands of years. Today, it was Xiao He who got the honor of the leader of the Yu clan, so he can see the Yu clan's ancestral hall."

After the two of them were polite, Marquis Yu invited Xiao He to come in. He sat facing east, which showed his respect for Xiao He.

The ancestral hall was in the backyard, and Xiao He also went to worship.

The family history of this Yu clan can be traced back 2000 years.Throughout Jiangdong, and even in the world, when you mention the Yu family, you have to listen carefully.

Because this ancestor of the Yu family was also the founder of Chinese civilization.

The Yu family originates from the surname Yao, which is a branch of the surname Yao. It comes from Shangjun, the son of Emperor Shun, Yao Chonghua, the last abdication emperor of the Five Ancient Emperors, and named his country after his country.

Emperor Shun was said to have the Yu family, so Emperor Shun was also called Yu Shun and was the ancestor of people with the Yu surname.

Emperor Shun's surname was Yao and his given name was Chonghua.About 2000 years ago in the second year of the Second Emperor, Yao gave way to Shun and reigned for 39 years.

Shun was a sage in the history of the Central Plains. He was the leader of the alliance of ancient emperors and tribes after Yao. He was a representative of the abdication system. He became king of the world by accepting Yao's abdication. At that time, the country was named "Yu", so it was called "Yu Shun". .Yu Shun treated his stepmother with filial piety and his younger brothers with benevolence. Confucianism regarded him as an ideal figure and a model of benevolence and filial piety. Therefore, Yu Shun was the ancestor of people with the surname Yu.

Yu was successful in controlling the floods. When Emperor Shun was old, he abdicated the throne to Dayu. Dayu in turn granted Emperor Shun's son Shangjun a title in Shang Dynasty and established the Yu Kingdom.

The descendants of the monarch of the Yu Kingdom mostly took the country's name "Yu" as their surname, and were called the Yu family, which was one of the very ancient surnames.

However, during the Xia, Shang, Yin and Zhou, Spring and Autumn and Warring States periods, after 2000, there are still a few ancient surnames that can still exist.Even if it is preserved, there is no one with a prominent reputation.

And here is the Yu family, whose ancestor is Yu Shun. Who doesn't know Yu Shun's virtuousness, so the Yu family has always been a family respected by people all over the world.

Looking at today, among the noble families that have been handed down, only the blood of the Ying family and its many tributaries is still flowing.

Even after hundreds of years of war, there are still people who are willing to take the initiative to preserve this lineage, because they are also the ancestors of the Yu family.

The many guests invited today are from the Yu family, but the people who came naturally include all the nobles of the Chu Kingdom.
