Yue Ji

Chapter 269
The chime rang again.

The melodious and rippling sound of gold and stone plays the joy of banquets of princes that has been passed down for hundreds of years.This kind of music is soothing, tranquil, neutral and peaceful.In that era, Zhongzheng was peaceful, mighty like the beginning of heaven and earth, and impartial like the beginning of yin and yang, the sound of nature was most respected.

At this time, the wine and dishes had been set up, and the hall was already brightly lit.

Jing Ling stood up again, raised his glass to the envoys, and shouted loudly: "Gentlemen, please respect the Emperor Zhou with this wine!"

When Jingling stood up, a middle-aged man dressed as a doctor in the most prominent position in the middle stood up slowly.This person is the representative of Zhou Tianzi.

After Jing Ling bowed deeply to him, he drank the wine in the bottle in one gulp.

All the envoys stood up, saluted the envoys of Emperor Zhou at the same time, and raised their bottles to drink.

In real history, the Jin State, which has dominated the world for more than two hundred years, has always included the Zhou royal family under its own protection.At that time, the countries in the Central Plains, whether they were attacking Chu or Beidi, they all used the slogan of "resisting the king".And that king is Zhou Tianzi.

Later, after the three families of Zhao, Wei and Han were divided into Jin, the princes no longer paid attention to Emperor Zhou.There are several ways to distinguish between the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. Among them, the most recognized distinction is the division of the three families into the Jin Dynasty.Because before the three families were divided into Jin Dynasty, the Zhou royal family existed. After the three families were divided into Jin Dynasty, there was no Zhou royal family in the world, and the princes entered into a melee by all means.

The envoy of the emperor of Zhou raised his head and drank the wine in the bottle, holding the newly filled wine in both hands, and conveyed the reward of the emperor of Zhou to Jingling in a loud voice.This award is the written ceremony in which Emperor Zhou awarded Jingling the title of King of Jin.

After Zhou Tianzi's envoy sat down, Jingling raised the full wine bottle again and said loudly: "This wine, I wish to respect Si Shen (the god of disrespect), Si Meng (the god of supervising the oath of the covenant), the gods, the gods Sacrifice, mountain god, river god, first king, first duke. Jingling is now the king of Jin, and throughout his life, he will strengthen the state of Jin, assist the royal family of Zhou, and protect the orthodoxy of the Central Plains! If there is any violation, the gods will abandon it and the elders will spit ! Destroying the king and destroying the clan, destroying the country and leaving no family! Enjoy!"

This is Jingling's most solemn promise and most solemn oath to his homeland.

When he was swearing in Jingling, a swordsman in full armor came behind him.This swordsman is his charioteer, the most powerful and powerful master among his [-] soldiers, and the person he trusts the most.

When the swordsman left, Wei Luo also stood up.She and the swordsman walked to Jingling's side, one on the left and the other on the right.

The swordsman held a dagger in his hand, and Wei Luo took the wine bottle from his hand when Jing Ling's words fell.

Jing Ling turned his hand and took the dagger from the swordsman's hand.He flashed the dagger into the air, cut his palm with a stroke of the dagger point.In an instant, blood gushed down.

Just as his blood was dripping, Wei Luo stepped forward and took it with a wine bottle.

The blood soaked into the wine and spread quickly.

After dripping about nine drops of blood, Jing Ling reached out to take the wine bottle, raised his head, and drank the blood wine in the bottle!

As he swung the empty wine bottle to the left and right, an extremely loud, extremely sonorous and powerful drum sound "咚咚——" came.

The sound of the drum was loud and heavy, although it only sounded twice, it seemed to ring in the hearts of everyone.

At this point, I swear.

Wei Luo took the empty wine bottle in his hand and refilled it for him, Jingling waved it towards the envoys and said with a smile: "Jingling respects all the lords for this wine!"

"Don't dare!"

Amidst the orderly promises of the messengers, Jing Ling drank the wine in the bottle again, and retreated to the table with Wei Luo.Of course, the car backed off first.

So far, Li Cheng.

The ceremony performed in Jingling is the ceremony of succeeding the emperor.

For tonight's banquet, although half of the princes' envoys have not arrived.But the arrival of Zhou Tianzi's envoy is the most important thing.

There were more than a dozen envoys from the princes watching the ceremony, and the envoys from the emperor of Zhou were present, so the ceremony of succeeding the emperor could be carried out.

After Jing Ling sat down, he put his hands on his knees, and with a smile on his handsome face, he said in a loud voice: "Every gentleman has something to say."

——The debate, the questions have begun.

Wei Luo, who had just sat down, couldn't help but feel tense when he heard Jing Ling's announcement.

Su, who was sitting on Qi Guo's collapse, finally turned to look at Wei Luo.There was concern in his eyes.

After a little silence, a Jin doctor stood up first.

He crossed his hands at Jingling, and said in a loud voice, "Dare to ask Your Majesty, the woman beside you is Madam?"

Jing Ling nodded, and responded loudly, "Of course."

This is the name.On such a grand occasion, when Jingling took the oath as the king, the Jin doctor and Jingling asked and answered, which was to formally introduce Wei Luo's identity to all the envoys.

Of course, after the name is corrected, there must still be a wedding ceremony.

The Jin doctor nodded and sat down.

Then, a wise man from Jixia Palace of Qi State stood up.He crossed his hands towards Wei Luo, and said loudly, "I have a question, can Madam answer it?"

Wei Luo shivered.

She straightened her waist a little, a graceful smile appeared on her gorgeous face, and she replied in a clear voice, "Yes."

She can only say yes.

The sage stared at her and said loudly, "Everyone calls Madam a beautiful woman. I heard that Madam is worth two cities, is there such a thing?"

Wei Luo nodded, and replied without changing his smile, "Of course."

"good."

The sage turned his head to look at Jingling, raised his voice, and asked aggressively: "Dare to ask your majesty, if you exchange two cities for one wife, is it considered virtuous, sexual? Talented?"

Jingling's handsome face was slightly condensed, and he replied indifferently: "I am a woman who has all three!"

The voice was deep, but it contained boundless trust and affirmation.

The whole hall was noisy.

Jing Ling's answer was not wrong.However, his tone of course, his tone of declaring that Wei Luo is virtuous, beautiful, and talented, made everyone unable to react for a while.

In this world, how can a husband praise his wife like this?

Amid the noise, the magi sat down.

Then, another sage from Jixia Palace stood up.

The magi had a square face and a beard that grew past his chest.

He stared at Wei Luo, and slowly opened his mouth, his voice was awe-inspiring, "It will not be long until Xintian. However, Mrs. Zeng Wen drove away all the concubines in the garden a few days ago. Dare to ask Madam, Madam is doing this for the country and the family, clearing up the idle and miscellaneous and clearing the way for the king?"

When the wise man said this, he suddenly raised his voice, and shouted loudly: "Or, is it because of lust? Madam wants to monopolize the favor of the king, so she wants to disperse the concubines?"

The voice is deep and aggressive!

For a moment, the hall was silent.

Even those who were whispering turned to look at Wei Luo.Su Geng, he stared at Wei Luo blankly, with the same bewilderment and inquiry on his face as everyone behind him.

Under the stares of everyone, Wei Luo smiled.

She smiled, her eyes were like autumn waves in the sky, and she quietly swept across the crowd.

After a while, she stared at the wise man who questioned him, and said leisurely, "Your gentleman knows, not long ago, I, a woman, retreated from the Qin and Chu army with one word?"

Everyone was stunned.

In an instant, there was a buzzing sound of discussion.Among the discussions, there were more stares of disbelief.

Not long after that incident was successful, the news had not had time to spread, and she was a woman after all, and Qin Chu's great contribution to receding was intentionally or unintentionally concealed by the senior officials of the Jin people.So, most of you here don't know about it.

All the envoys looked at Jingling one after another.

Amid all the attention, Jing Ling nodded, and said loudly: "This time, the Qin and Chu troops have retreated, and this woman is the first to contribute!"

He admitted it positively.

The envoys began to discuss in whispers.After a while, they learned the whole story from someone who knew the matter.

All of a sudden, everyone looked at Wei Luo with admiration and admiration.

In this era, talented people never hide themselves.Expressing yourself and highlighting yourself is the hobby of every sage and swordsman.Therefore, Wei Luo bluntly said that he has made great contributions to Jin, and everyone will not think such a person is arrogant like later generations.

Amidst the commotion, the Magi of Jixia Palace who questioned Wei Luo raised his voice and asked a bit sharply: "Ma'am, please explain in detail!"

He was urging Wei Luo to answer his questions in detail.

Wei Luo sighed.She also thought that she would make everyone here forget to embarrass her by throwing out this shocking news.

However, there was still a smile on her face, and Wei Luo's black jade eyes looked at the magi quietly, her voice raised slightly, and she said crisply: "I have a few questions, can you answer?"

Hey, she has problems too?
Everyone fell silent and looked at Wei Luo curiously.

"Madam, please."

Wei Luo smiled slightly.

Her gaze was like water, and after sweeping from left to right as clear as the sky, she turned to the magi.

She opened her mouth, her voice was extremely clear and melodious, her voice was like a song like water, and there was a natural dissoluteness hidden in her voice, "What do you think, how intelligent is this concubine?"

The wise man was taken aback.

In a blink of an eye, he gave Wei Luo a deep bow, and replied loudly: "Madam can retreat from Qin Chuqiang with a single word. Such a feat is rare in the world, and even a great husband can't do it. Madam is talented and can be called a national scholar!"

This evaluation is not low.

Wei Luo smiled sweetly.

In front of her, Jing Ling's handsome face was serious, and there was no wave in the face that seemed to be carved out of a thousand-year-old rock.

With a chuckle, Wei Luo said again: "What do you guys think, how brave is my concubine?"

The buzzing sounded again.

That sage from Jixia Palace, in Qi State, has never heard of Wei Luo's martial arts reputation.But those around him, those rangers of the Mohist school, those dignitaries who experienced the war two or three years ago, all know about it.

Amidst the buzzing of discussions, a swordsman stood up.He crossed his hands towards Wei Luo, and replied in a loud voice: "Madam captured the king of Chu among millions of troops! Forced him to commit suicide! And in the juzi meeting, he defeated the master with a mere wooden sword! And in the palace of Chu, the two The master of defeating Chu! My wife's bravery is rare in the world! Even a great husband can't do it!"

boom--

The hum of discussion grew louder and louder.

Those who had never heard of Wei Luo's deeds were stunned for a moment.I was stunned for a moment.

This era, after all, is an era of just budding wisdom.At this time, those who can read and speak a few sentences are magi, and those who can swing a sword and kill two people are swordsmen.

In this era, it is a miracle that a beautiful woman like Wei Luo has such extraordinary abilities.It is rare in the world, a legend that everyone has never heard of before.

One after another, the noise of twittering was wave after wave.

After a long while, the sage of Jixia Palace who questioned Wei Luo bowed his hands and sighed to her: "Madam's ability is appalling. Do you still have questions?"

Everyone gradually became quiet, and they looked at Wei Luo again, waiting for her to say something surprising.

Under everyone's attention, Wei Luo smiled again.

Smiling, she lowered her eyes and shook her head.

The wise man raised his voice and said again: "What is the lady's intention?"

Wei Luo smiled again.

She turned her head to look at Jingling.

At this time, she was smiling like a flower, but she was tired. On her beautiful face, Mo Yu's eyes were as gentle as water.

She looked at Jingling quietly, looked at Jingling tenderly and affectionately, and in the silence of the crowd, said in a clear voice: "My husband is the hero among men!"

Her voice is so sweet, so gentle, as if it is the most irritating song.Jing Ling, who had been expressionless all this time, turned his head sideways in a daze, and met her gaze.

Looking at each other, he smiled back tenderly.

All the men present could understand Jingling's smile, and they also had this expression when they looked at their most doting wives, concubines and children.

Wei Luo looked at him tenderly, looked at him quietly, and continued: "I think that among the women in this world, only my concubine matches him!"

This this?
Everyone was really stunned.In a daze, Princess Yue Di covered her mouth with her small hands, and let out a cry of surprise.She looked at Wei Luo with that absolutely disbelieving gaze.

As mentioned earlier, people at this time are not used to being talented and hiding under their armpits, nor are they used to being humble.However, Wei Luo, a woman, said these words in such a confident and flamboyant tone, they really had never heard of them.

In fact, they are really unheard of.In this history, there has never been a woman who has dared to say: My man is the best in the world, and among the women in this world, only I, who is extremely excellent, is worthy of him!

So arrogant!
However, Jingling likes it.

He raised his eyes again, fixedly looked at Wei Luo, fixedly looked at her who was confident, high-spirited, and dared to speak shocking words.

Look at it, "hahahaha"

Jingling suddenly burst out laughing.

When it was so quiet, Jingling's laughter was so loud and so majestic.So happy!
Everyone stared blankly at Jing Ling, who laughed heartily.

His sculpted features were now glowing with laughter.His black robe and his mountain-like figure seemed extremely arrogant amidst such a big laugh.

Amidst the laughter, Jing Ling stretched and pulled his right hand.

He just clasped Wei Luo's arm like this, and pulled her into his arms heavily in front of thousands of people!

Wei Luo was dragged staggeringly by him, and in the blink of an eye, his slender waist was squeezed by his waist, and his whole body was placed in Jingling's broad chest.

Wei Luo, who was locked in Jingling's arms, smiled sweetly, her beautiful little face was flushed, Mo Yu's eyes were like water, and her tenderness almost overflowed.

Everyone in the hall was stunned.

The sage of Jixia Palace looked at this scene in astonishment, he opened his mouth, opened his mouth again, shook his head secretly, and sat down.When he sat down, he thought this way: at this moment, you can't press the question any more, and if you press the question again, it's impossible for the new king of Jin to take it all in a moment of emotion.Duh!It is common sense for husbands, wives and concubines to gather in groups. This woman is so bold, she must not be allowed to mess up.That question, I'll wait, wait, wait. . . . . .
