History of the Great Zhou Dynasty

Chapter 242 Xinzheng

After the emperor and Baosi left, Feng Yun looked far away.

"The Emperor...Why is his breath so insignificant and indistinct? If he hadn't made a sound, I wouldn't have known it was coming."

All things have animism. Even if Feng Yun doesn't pay special attention to who he is looking for, he can still feel it slightly, and he feels blessed.

Just like it was known at the beginning that Lao Tzu returned from the Zhou Palace to the Palace of Classics.

But it lost its effectiveness with the emperor.

Can't think about it, just leave it behind for the time being.

"It's almost March this time. It's been a long time since the Great Zhou Dynasty, and I've seen a lot about Fenghao's situation. It's time to start writing "The Kingdoms·Zhou"."

"Man, I'll take the piano back, and you can go to Fenghao City and buy some bamboo slips and silk books."

When the boy heard the sound, he nodded in agreement and left.

Feng Yun picked up the beam and returned to the thatched cottage.

But in front of the thatched cottage, I saw Bao Si waiting...

"Feng Zi'an, praise Si is polite."

Baosi, a native of Bao country, with the surname Si, married to the emperor, so she took the name of the country, Bao Si.

After she got this name, she was no longer the princess of Bao Kingdom, but the concubine of the emperor.

"Praise beauties..."

Beauty, praise Si concubine.

"I wonder if something is wrong?"

There was a slight distance between Feng Yun and Bao Si, and Feng Yun didn't have any special thoughts, but Bao Si had a slight intention of retreating.

Can……

"Fengzi, you are friends with Bao Si. You have been in Fenghao for many days, but Bao Si never came to visit you. Bao Si is rude."

"What words can be said to praise a beautiful woman? People who meet each other in the world may lose their friendship even when they were children. What's more, they met by chance. When they were in the big court, they just took what they needed."

To each his own, indeed.

Feng Yun originally wanted information about Yu Yue, but Bao Xiang and the others needed a safe way to return Bao Xiang.

From beginning to end, both parties had a tacit understanding and did not discuss matters based on this.

Today, Bao Si was out of the ordinary.

"Fengzi, this is because Baosi has received your favor."

Bao Si looked at the Yaoliangqin behind Feng Yun, and then took out a jade pendant.

"This is something that Bao Si was blessed with when he was a child. It is not a treasure of the Great Zhou Dynasty."

"Uncle Fu heard your music today and liked it very much. I hope Fengzi can teach you the basics in his spare time."

Bao Si handed over the jade pendant and Feng Yun looked into her eyes.

"Praising a beautiful person has made someone extraordinary?"

He is just the most humble stranger, but he already has the foundation for seeking the Tao.

"Fengzi has good eyesight." Bao Si smiled sadly.

"So what if I'm a stranger? Bao Si has no intention of searching for the Tao. I just hope that Bo Fu can take Bao Si's place to search for the Tao."

Looking for the way... Feng Yun is not a practitioner of luck, but the way of luck is the way of the emperor.

Bao Si told him that she did not want to participate in this prince's battle, and she came to seek his help at this time. She wanted to be happy with the Tao, establish the foundation of the uncle's service, and stay away from right and wrong.

"Is this the original intention of complimenting the beauty?"

Why didn't you tell me before and came to look for him now...

Bao Si nodded slightly.

"I hope Fengzi can agree to teach Bofu Le Tao. The queen will be comforted by Bao Si. Bao Si just wants to..." Bao Si looked at Feng Yun with tears in his eyes and cried slightly: "I hope Bofu can grow up healthily. that is."

Feng Yun didn't believe Bao Si.

In other words, Bao Si didn't want Feng Yun to believe it.

"Yun Hui will consider this matter and will teach Bofu and Yijiu the piano later on. What happens to the two of them is another matter."

Feng Yun rejected the jade pendant.

In Bao Si's eyes, she seemed to be relieved, and her gratitude to Feng Yun became even deeper.

"Please Fengzi, please take care of me." Bao Si bowed from afar, her figure was graceful and charming.

Feng Yun thought he had seen it wrong, but in a daze, the charming meaning disappeared.

Is it talent?

When strangers awaken, they all have a talent that is buried in their hearts and not told to others.

Just like Feng Yun's cultivation of Tao, one can comprehend the rhymes of thousands of Tao and cultivate Tao to achieve success.

And Baosi seems to be charming.

"The emperor wants to come to pay homage to Bao Si today. Bao Si will tell me about my uncle's service. I will take my leave now. Fengzi forgives me."

Baosi left, but she looked at her three times at a time, bowed again and again, and bowed again and again.

Others see it as a mother's love for her son, hoping that Feng Yun can teach Bo Fu and find a way out for her son.

but……

"Has your luck changed?"

Feng Yun was in the courtyard, sitting and looking at the sky, but the fortune of the Great Zhou Dynasty was obscured by Jiuding, so how could he see it.

Only at night, when the sky is full of stars, can we stargazing and find some possibilities.

But the sky is stable and orderly, and there seems to be no problem.

But with the art of observing qi, he bypassed this layer of fog and illusion, and saw a deeper star image.

"The lone star accompanies the moon...the shadow is faintly..."

In the sky, a dazzling star hangs next to the moon.

But the Yinghuo star seems to be there and not there, erratic.

When Feng Yun was in Yu Yue, he once saw the river map and told the map of the twenty-eight constellations and star images passed down by Yu the Great to determine the landscape.

At this time, with this view, under the power of the near sage, "Book of Changes" was performed, and an evil idea came to Feng Yun's heart.

The moon is the mistress.

And that lone star can be called the Taibai Star, which is responsible for war.

Yinghuo is another source of turmoil.

Everything seems to be harmonious, but the two stars and the moon are connected with each other. Looking at the land of the Great Zhou, it can be seen that the luck is depressed.

This disaster will befall the Great Zhou Dynasty.

"It's dark under the lamp, and you can't see yourself when you raise your head."

The great divination in the Great Zhou Dynasty cannot see through the star images pointing directly at the Great Zhou Dynasty without the power of detecting Jiuding's luck.

There is a reason why Jiuding is vigorously suppressing the luck of the Great Zhou Dynasty at this time. The Baiyue King is causing trouble and is afraid of hurting the emperor. The emperor can only use this to cover up his weakness. After the injury is healed, the power of Jiuding will be withdrawn.

"Demon Concubine... Baosi, is it true that the beacon fire show of the princes will be staged?"

Feng Yun didn't know clearly, but he chose to come to Dazhou at this time and had no intention of escaping from the world.

"Since the emperor used Bao Si to involve me in this matter, Yun is not a timid person."

"How can we end up doing nothing when we come to the Great Zhou Dynasty?"

Feng Yun stood up and looked into the distance. The gurgling Jingwei water was surging down, but he saw that the water was much smaller than a few months ago.

"During spring plowing, lack of water for irrigation is also a visible sign of disaster."

"If Yun didn't know what he could do in Da Zhou before, now he understands."

Feng Yun smiled slightly.

The decline of the Western Zhou Dynasty was inevitable. This was no longer the period hundreds of years ago when King Wu conquered Zhou and the Great Four Saints ruled one after another.

The system and state form at this time were already backward and were not enough to support the development of the human race. It was a new period of change.

What he has to do is to seize this opportunity, establish a humane heart for the rise of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, and open up the world of the human race.

……

The next day, Feng Yun served as the prince's uncle, and played a tune with the prince Yiyi.

Bo Fu is obsessed with it and desires it.

However, Yijiu only wanted to have fun, and when he looked at Feng Yun, he looked at the people dancing and playing in the palace.

In this way, after the queen picked up Yijiu, Feng Yun left Bofu behind.

"Uncle Fu, do you have money to buy a piano?"

Bofu was overjoyed when he heard it, but he hesitated.

"It's not easy for my mother to weave cloth. She mostly buys nourishing food and food. She doesn't have any spare money to buy a musical instrument."

Feng Yun heard this and nodded.

"come over."

Bo Fu obeyed, and Feng Yun gently rubbed Bo Fu's head.

The art of gazing...

Feng Yun remained calm. But he knew clearly in his heart that Bo Fu was indeed protected by the emperor's luck, and Feng Yun could not explore at will.

"Tomorrow I will ask Manwa to prepare a piece of wood. After you polish the prototype, I will find sheep intestines to make strings for you."

Bo Fu smiled happily.

"Thank you Fengzi."

Feng Yun shook his head.

"What you should be grateful to is your mother. She has a mother's heart, just like the earth behind her. Even if she is in the Nine Netherworld, she still cares about the world."

"Houtu?" Bo Fu was puzzled.

But Feng Yun didn't say much, and Bao Si also arrived, so he let the two of them leave.

The next day, Feng Yun handed over the wood, simple tools, and drawings to Bo Fu.

Feng Yun treated this equally and prepared one for Yijiu, but it was obvious that Yijiu was not interested.

"Prince Yijiu, if you are willing to learn the rhythm, you can stay for another half an hour after learning the calligraphy every day, and you can teach me together."

But Yijiu didn't want to. He hated learning calligraphy, let alone doing this additional learning.

"That's it, Yijiu can arrange it himself."

One day at a time.

By the time the simple violin was made, it was already March and late spring.

Summer is about to begin.

At this time, the beacon tower on Lishan Mountain was also built day and night.

Jingwei asked the sky to attract phoenix birds with beacon fire, and all the princes were already prepared.

When the beacon fires are lit in Lishan Mountain, the beacon fires also need to be lit among the various vassal states, extending throughout the country of "Zhou Rites". Only in this way can it be regarded as sincerity.

When the time comes, you can also ask the phoenix bird to identify which prince's virtue will make him the crown prince.

Not long after, Feng Yun was also invited to Lishan on the day of the sacrifice.

Originally, the scholars and officials thought that Feng Yun would not go, but at this time Feng Yun's mentality had changed. He was no longer an outsider in this great Zhou incident.

"Woo!"

A long horn, more than ten meters away, made a loud and long sound when played by several strong men.

The air waves surged, penetrating in all directions along the mountain road of Lishan Mountain.

"Fengzi, stay safe!" On the mountain road, Feng Yun gathered on a stone platform in the corner, where the scholar-bureaucrats of the clan named Ji lived.

The leader is Situ - Mr. Zheng.

Zheng Gong is old but in good spirits. He was originally the king of Zheng, but this time he changed.

"Zheng Guojun is at peace." Feng Yun returned the greeting.

Recalling what he heard, Feng Yun asked.

"I heard that Zheng Guo got the emperor's approval and moved the capital to the east. I wonder if there will be any resettlement at this time?"

There are only so many lands for the princes, how much land can be allocated to Zheng?

When Zheng Gong heard about it, he also said: "The emperor was considerate and divided the southern land of Chengzhou into Xinzheng. I should take advantage of the remaining years to stabilize Xinzheng and take care of myself."

"Ha ha…"

"Mr. Zheng, Fengzi, the Emperor hopes that you two can go to the beacon tower and watch the beacon fire together."

The chamberlain came to report, but Duke Zheng looked at Feng Yun first.

Feng Yun shook his head.

"Yun did not serve as an official in the Zhou Dynasty, but he was only temporarily taking over the responsibility of guarding the history of Tibet for Mr. Lao Dan. A guard of Tibetan history, a sergeant, how can he go to the beacon tower?"

The chamberlain didn't force it.

But Zheng Gong is the Duke surnamed Ji, Situ Shangqing, if he doesn't go...

"I'm not going. I'm about to resign. Please make way for someone the emperor needs."

Looking at the beacon tower, I saw Guo Shi's father standing beside the emperor, walking in flattery, as if he was teasing the emperor with his words.

On the other side of the emperor, Bao Si was still hugging Bao Si, who was indescribably shy at this moment, while the queen on the other side could only grit her teeth secretly and try to maintain her queenly demeanor.

……

"The descendants...the emperor will have no shortage of."

Duke Zheng glanced at the two heirs who were over two years old and murmured.

The chamberlain wanted to say more, but he waved his hand and ignored her.

Helpless, the waiter had no choice but to leave.

But despite saying this, Mr. Zheng is still inevitably lonely.

At this time, there was no place for him on the beacon tower... Father Guo Shi's attitude was like this, but the emperor liked it.

On the other side, Feng Yun was thinking, Cheng Zhou...

Maybe Zheng Gong saw something in the limelight, so he decided to leave the area around Zongzhou.

At this time, Chengzhou was not as wealthy as Zongzhou.

Replacing the land around Zongzhou with Zhou's land is obviously not equivalent.

He looked at the old but not confused Mr. Zheng and couldn't help but sigh.

"Zheng Gong has the wisdom of Zhou Gong. If he leaves at this time, it will be great loss for Zhou."

Hearing the sound, Mr. Zheng just smiled.

He is the uncle of the emperor and the king of a country. For the sake of the great Zhou Dynasty, he temporarily left the people of the country and came to the land of Fenghao of Zongzhou to serve as an official.

But as for the emperor, he just needs a respected clan relative, not an interfering clan clan.

"How can I compare to you?"

Although he said this, Zheng Gong understood the meaning of Feng Yun's words.

When the Zhou Dynasty was founded, King Cheng was young, and King Wu's brother Zhou Gongdan was regent and served as Taifu.

The Duke of Zhou spent one year to relieve the rebellion, the second year to conquer Yin, the third year to practice death, the fourth year to build the marquis and guard, the fifth year to establish the Zhou Dynasty, the sixth year to establish rituals and music, and the seventh year to become the king of government - returning all the royal power to the adult Cheng. king.

Among them, building the Zhou Dynasty is not the same as Zheng Gong moving his country to the east?

Why are there Zongzhou and Chengzhou? Apart from restricting the vassal states in the east and guarding Chengzhou, there is another reason - the Duke of Zhou has great achievements and cannot be in the same place to avoid hurting the king.

This is fear and helplessness.

And he is different from Duke Zhou.

Duke Zhou had already accomplished his merits, so he left.

But as the emperor, he was not allowed to have meritorious service, so he had no choice but to leave without merit.

The same choice, but for different reasons.

"Fengzi, I would like to ask you a question..."

Zheng Gong waved his hand, using an unusual technique to isolate the surrounding sounds to prevent the conversation between the two from being leaked.

"In the land of Zongzhou, there have been many changes and disasters in the past few years. If my country cannot survive here, is it right or wrong for me to leave here?"

Feng Yun replied without thinking: "You are the king and you are responsible for your people. There is nothing wrong with leaving here."

"And you are the Situ of the Great Zhou Dynasty, but the emperor does not use you seriously. Your abilities cannot be used, and it is useless to stay here, so there is nothing wrong with leaving."

Duke Zheng was relieved and smiled happily.

"Yes, I made this choice too, but I was very hesitant about this choice, so that for so many years, I watched the emperor get close to the villain, and I became anxious."

"Then tell me, how should I establish a new Zheng Kingdom in my lifetime? This is what I want to know most."

In this regard, Feng Yun thought and recalled.

"The Xinzheng you are talking about must be Yin Luo today."

Zheng Gong nodded, but it was here.

"Yin Luo is just a small town in Chengzhou. It is temporarily announced to the world as a country. If you are interested, you need to inform the world first and change Yin Luo to Xinzheng."

"And around Yin Luo, there are soldiers from Lu Hun, but they are not unreasonable and can be treated with courtesy."

"There are many countries that are small and can be treated with great courtesy and respect."

"If you have a country that is in the center, you can treat the people with courtesy and kindness as equals."

"You are now Situ, in charge of the people's livelihood in the Great Zhou Dynasty. It is most convenient for you. The citizens of the surrounding countries will be close to you. This will also allow the people of Zheng State to better integrate into the surrounding exchanges and do business."

“Only by having friendly relations with neighboring countries can we quickly take root.”

Hearing this, Duke Zheng bowed to Feng Yun.

"These words are very good. After the war, I drafted an order and stayed by my side to act in accordance with these words."

Feng Yun returned the gift.

No matter how detailed the two discussed, they also talked about how to govern the people's livelihood and no longer use strange techniques to isolate the voices.

In a short time, the weather is auspicious, and the sacrifice will begin...
