Chapter 23: Raise your eyebrows to scare the sun and moon, and walk in the sky!

""Zi Ji" once said: What people do is the highest hill. From the high province, the image is high. All the people of the capital are from the capital."

"Customs" says: "Beijing is not made by manpower, it is the nature of heaven and earth." The meaning of Jing is also taken from this.

Gongyang said: "The capital is the great one; the master is the public. The emperor's residence must be described in terms of the greatness."

In the marching hall, Lu Yuanwei pointed at the map of Kyoto and said with a smile: "The ancient meaning of capital basically means the same thing, which means a big city with high buildings, high walls, and a lot of people."

"It can also be called several names. One billion means trillion, and ten trillion means capital, which also describes how big it is."

"Similarly, there is also the name of 'whale' in "Yu Hunter Fu", which was originally called 'Jingyu'."

"Disciple, please be taught." Shen Zhui nodded respectfully.

In the days before entering Beijing, in addition to studying with King Zhao, his master Lu Yuanwei also occasionally taught him, but they were mostly poems, songs, interpretations of classical Chinese, and the customs and customs along the way.

Although on the surface, these things are not conducive to improving one's realm, Lu Yuanwei is proficient in the holy words. When he often listens to them, Shen Zhui feels that his soul is refreshed and his thoughts are clear. This is an invisible improvement.

"The auspicious day for worshiping heaven set by the Ministry of Rites is on the seventh day of the fifth lunar month, which is three days later." Lu Yuanwei said. "Marquis Zhixin and Marquis Zhongyi entered Beijing two days earlier than us. Our time is relatively tight."

"But the sacrificial ceremony has been prepared a month ago. The six departments are busy, so we don't have to worry about it. We just need to wait in the princes' mansion."

"After the sacrifice is made to heaven, it is announced to the world, and a reward will be given by the emperor himself."

"There are many good places in Kyoto for its treasures and splendor. For example, Kyoto Imperial College is located at Jimen in the east city." Lu Yuanwei said. "That's why Taixue is also named Jixia Academy. It is a holy place in the hearts of all scholars. Any student who comes out of Jixia Academy, even if he has no talent, can at least become a county official as long as he works hard."

"Your magical power of the Holy Word, the Tianshu Dragon Pattern Sword, is only at the level of the Holy Word of Life. If you want to reach the point where you can follow the instructions, you can go to Jixia Academy for a walk after you meet the Saint. You may gain something. .”

"Disciple will definitely go and have a look." Shen Zhui said with a smile.

The so-called words follow the law, which means using the power of the holy word to control the power of laws!

As for the law, it is a mysterious power that only the true god level can master, which shows the power of the Holy Word.

Of course, Shen Zhui didn't expect to reach that level by just going there, but he was still full of curiosity about the holy place that all scholars admired.

"Although Kyoto is prosperous, in order to avoid accidents, it is best not to go out and walk around in the past few days, so as not to miss important events. It is not too late to go sightseeing after the sacrifices are made." Lu Yuanwei said. "Your life experience may be good or bad, so you must be careful."

"Disciple understands." Shen Zhui nodded. Entering the capital city is no different than being in the Wu'an Army. A strong dragon cannot defeat a local snake. Even if you are the Marquis of Wu, the Emperor must keep a low profile.

If you dare to act recklessly just because your teacher is King Zhao, you will die without even knowing it.

Of course, with this backing, he is not afraid of those who take the initiative to stir up trouble.

Lu Yuanwei nodded, and the two masters and apprentices continued to chat about the magic and prosperity of the capital. Unknowingly, the building boat descended...

The capital has arrived.

…………

After getting off the warship, Shen Zhui and others, accompanied by officials, transferred to the beast chariot from Zhengtianmen and entered the capital.

The city gate is tall and wide. According to Shen Zhui's estimation, it is enough for a warship with a height of 100 meters to fly in!

There were many ordinary people going in and out of Zhengtianmen. When they saw the majestic and luxurious honor guard appearing, they all immediately hid aside.

But after all, it was the people of the capital who, when they saw King Zhao and the officials from the Six Ministries approaching, although they avoided them, they still looked at the carriages and horses with their heads high.

"Where did this high-ranking official come from? Hey~ Tianma chariot. Could it be that Marquis Wu is coming to Beijing?"

"Hmph, I don't know. That's a silver-scaled dragon horse! This is the treatment only a king can get!"

"Ah, sure enough, the flag is Zhao? When did our dynasty have an extra King Zhao?"

"I'm really ignorant. This person comes from the land of West Antarctica. The Marquis of Wu'an, Zhao Xing, won the battle of the realm and was granted the title of King of Zhao! Did you see the official driving the car at the front? That's the Minister of War!"

"Tsk tsk, the dignified Minister of War drove his car to clear the way... When will I be able to have such a status..."

"You are still in the innate realm, but you still want to be crowned king? Just dream!"

"..."

The carriage moved forward in an orderly manner, and the long queue passed under the tall door wall.

Shen Zhui sat in the carriage and looked outside with curiosity.

He felt as if he had entered a kingdom of giants. The top of the wall above his head was nine hundred meters high, and it seemed to be going higher and higher.

Looking ahead, one can vaguely see the high-rise buildings in the downtown area, which are continuous and very flat. No one is flying in the sky, which is extremely bright.

But as he walked, Shen Zhui felt something was different.

He found that the crowd around him was getting smaller and smaller, the roads were getting wider and wider, and the faint fluctuations of the magic circle were getting stronger and stronger, as if something was brewing.

Until a certain moment——

"Buzz~" It was as if there was an invisible silk net that could be broken by a blow, moving vertically from the front of the carriage, passing through the carriage and through his own body.

This feeling was extremely slight, as if there was nothing there, and it was extremely fast. If Shen Zhui hadn't been very sensitive, he wouldn't even have been able to notice it.

The next moment, the light suddenly became abundant, and the field of vision suddenly became extremely wide. The city walls and tall buildings disappeared, and there was only a thick cloud and mist in front.

Looking below, there is also thick white fog!

"This..." Shen Zhui couldn't help but be stunned. How could he reach the sky while walking?

"Shen Zhui, don't panic." Kong Yangzhou was sitting in the wide carriage, with Shen Kangwei, who was sleeping soundly, leaning next to him. "There are twenty-eight gates in the capital. Each gate has a huge magic circle to separate people with different cultivation levels."

"The capital city is divided into thirty-three areas in total. People live in their own areas based on their status, cultivation, and living conditions. Although they go through the same door, when entering the door, they will move to the corresponding area according to their household credentials. Inside. No one is leading and cannot enter high-level areas. This is because we are afraid that civilians with low-level cultivation will be accidentally injured."

"That's true." Shen Zhui nodded.

Although the laws of the Zhou Dynasty were quite considerate of ordinary people in the past dynasties, the gap in status was there, and it was impossible to make everyone equal in an unrealistic way.

If the True God Realm and the Xiantian Realm were neighbors.

One day, if one is not careful and the true god is unable to withstand his own pressure during cultivation, then the innate realm next to him will have no way to survive.

"The capital city has been transformed by the Ministry of Industry with the supreme magic circle. The same sky has been divided into thirty-three levels of space. People with different strengths live in different lands, which are named thirty-three levels of heaven."

"What we are going to now is the twenty-fifth dimension, the moon and the sky." Kong Yangzhou introduced. "The people who live in Yue Xingtian are basically officials of fifth rank or above, at least high-level supernatural power realm. Of course, there are also some low-level servants."

"Twenty-fifth level, Yue Xingtian..." Shen Zhui muttered to himself. "Why is this the same name as Tianwaitian?"

"The name Tianwaitian was actually created by the human race." Kong Yangzhou said with a smile. "In ancient times, human races ventured out into the world one after another, and some established their own territories. They named them after this and divided them into strict hierarchies.

This method of separating various cultivation levels is convenient for management. After the Apocalypse Era, Wangcheng also used this method. "

"However, compared with the heaven outside the sky, there are still differences between the thirty-three heavens in our capital city of the Great Zhou Dynasty. At least it does not say that the bottom of the earth is connected to the sky and is not allowed to come up. Even the Confucians even built a special sky in each heaven. A treasure - Babel drum!"

"Treasure Tongtian Drum?" Shen Zhui was confused.

"Yes." Kong Yangzhou nodded. "The Babel Drum, go up to heaven and listen! If there is a big clan oppressing the people at the bottom, or there are evildoers or grievances among the officials at the bottom, anyone can go and beat the Babel Drum!"

"The first one is to communicate with the county magistrate, the second is to communicate with Zhou Jun. The third is to communicate with the governor, the fourth is to communicate with the six ministries, the fifth is to communicate with the Zaifu, the sixth is to communicate with the central council, the seventh is to ask for the law, the eighth is to tell the king, and the ninth is to move the heaven and earth!"

"There is such a thing..." Shen Zhui couldn't help being surprised. "The civil servants of the Great Zhou Dynasty are really ruthless. The code of law is above the center, and the kings are only placed on the second level, and the heaven and earth are placed on the first level."

"That being said, there may be conditions for beating the Babel Drum, right?" Shen Zhui asked.

"This is natural." Kong Yangzhou chuckled. "Although ordinary people can beat the Babel Drum, this treasure has a spirit. You have to have real grievances to do it. If you don't have any grievances and bang it randomly? You won't even get close to the Tongtian Drum."

"Even if there is a grievance, we will automatically determine the level of the matter we are caught and sued for. It will not be magnified and will not be missed."

"How useful can this Babel Drum be?" Shen Zhui said disdainfully.

If this were really the case, the case of protecting the country would not have been overturned until now.

"Don't underestimate it." Kong Yangzhou shook his head. "There are indeed examples."

In history, a prince once made a mistake and fell in love with a farmer's daughter-in-law in the suburbs of Beijing. "

"The farmer's daughter-in-law didn't want to obey, so the prince actually killed her whole family and took possession of them by force."

"The prince didn't know what was wrong, so he actually let the woman go again and ordered the local governor to settle the matter. As a result, the governor's adjutant was a resolute man and took the woman and ran to knock her. Babel.”

"Knocked six times and went straight to the center for discussion!"

"What?" Shen Zhui's heart skipped a beat. Central discussions are basically about national affairs!

To be able to reach this level, this Babel Drum is really something extraordinary.

"What's even more ridiculous is that the central minister suppressed the matter at that time and pretended not to see it!" Kong Yangzhou said with emotion.

"In the end, all the people cried out for injustice, and the woman committed suicide in the government office. The great scholar and loyalist came forward, held the woman's body in front of the Tongtian Drum and beat the seventh beat!"

"Finally, the "Code of Punishment" was invited to arrive. Lin Zhizhong held the Code of Punishment and led many great scholars straight to the palace of the prince in the 28th Heaven.

The prince was so frightened that he fled directly into the harem of the thirty-first heaven. In the end, he was found by those great scholars, and in the end, in front of many noble concubines, they listed the prince's crimes, and finally beheaded the prince who had been promoted to the true god. "

"Afterwards, Lin Zhizhong and many other great scholars felt that they had exceeded the etiquette of a monarch and his ministers, and wanted to kill him on the palace wall. However, the Emperor stopped him and pardoned him."

"This..." Shen Zhui was also shocked and speechless.

It seems that this Babel drum is really not a joke.

"Shen Zhui, be careful not to offend the civil servants," Kong Yangzhou said. "If it hadn't been for the seventh blow from the great scholar's loyal assistant, the noble prince would have had the privilege to kill an ordinary person. At most, he would have been demoted to a concubine, and he wouldn't have had to die at all."

"But just because many great scholars broke into the thirty-first heaven with the "Code of Punishment" in their hands, the prince completely lost his way of survival."

Shen Zhui nodded. Indeed, even if a majestic prince killed a woman and was found out afterwards, he handled it properly and did not cause the people to complain or alarm the great scholars. It would be impossible for him to be in trouble.

Of course, that prince must have done many evil things, otherwise he would not have any vitality at all.

"There are many single-minded civil servants in the Zhou Dynasty. The existence of strong orders also prevents the nobles from doing anything too blatantly." Kong Yangzhou said. "But in private, that's hard to say."

Shen Zhuishen believed that, if nothing else, a strong person could do evil in his own cave world, or directly accept him as a soul servant, which would be difficult to detect.

"Shen Zhui, look, we've hit a good time." Kong Yangzhou suddenly motioned to Shen Zhui to look out the window. "The thirty-third heaven appears together, and the operation of the formation is extremely mysterious. This is a spectacle that is rarely seen once in ten years!"

"Huh?" Shen Zhui immediately looked out the window.

I saw that the surrounding clouds and fog slowly dispersed, and a wide mirror appeared up, down, left, right, and in all directions at the same time.

With Shen Zhui as the center, there are thirty-three pieces of this mirror, and on each piece, there are tall buildings.

Either a splendid palace, a row of private houses, or a majestic sacrificial temple...

On a certain mirror, Shen Zhui also saw the simple pavilion, and the faint sound of reading could be heard...

"That's the climbing building in Jixia Academy." Kong Yangzhou pointed to a certain place.

And Shen Xinlan, who came out after hearing the sound, looked at the window with great curiosity and was amazed.

"It's really a spectacle..." Shen Xinlan sighed.

She could imagine that she was in a huge diamond-shaped sphere, with all thirty-three sides reflecting the living conditions in the thirty-third space area.

Prosperity, strangeness, solemnity, majesty... If you have enough time, standing here, you can see the entire thirty-third heaven of the capital!

"It's rare. We are lucky." When Kong Yangzhou saw Shen Xinlan coming out, he couldn't help but lower his head slightly and twisted his body awkwardly.

Shen Kangwei seemed to be awakened by his movement, and he hugged Kong Yangzhou and sobbed like a child: "My son, I'm so pitiful, my son~"

Kong Yangzhou: "..."

Shen Xinlan smiled and approached slowly: "Let me do it. You have worked hard these days."

"It's not hard, it's not hard... Shen Zhui is my brother, and his father is naturally my father..." Kong Yangzhou waved his hands. He seemed to notice that Shen Xinlan was very close, and quickly turned his head to comfort Shen Kangwei, but he couldn't bear it. He couldn't help but glance at Shen Xinlan secretly.

Seeing this scene, Shen Zhui couldn't help but smile knowingly.

No wonder this boy didn't complain at all about his biological father who had taken care of him these days. Now he finally found the reason.

"It would be a beautiful thing if he could get married to his sworn sister." Shen Zhui thought to himself.

Seeing Shen Xinlan coaxing Shen Kangwei into a deep sleep and entering the room inside the carriage, Kong Yangzhou reluctantly looked away.

"Does it look good?" Suddenly a voice came to Kong Yangzhou's ears.

"It looks good... eh." Kong Yangzhou turned around and immediately saw Shen Zhui's teasing gaze.

"How does it compare to the wonders of the thirty-third heaven?" Shen Zhui asked.

"Of course Miss Shen is more beautiful. The wonders of the thirty-third heaven are nothing compared to Miss Shen!" Kong Yangzhou said righteously.

"Ahem..." Shen Zhui almost choked at Kong Yangzhou's shamelessness.

However, he was very satisfied with Kong Yangzhou's attitude.

"Don't look at me." Shen Zhui waved his hand and chuckled. "As long as you can impress your sworn sister, you don't have to think about it here."

"Really?!" Kong Yangzhou's eyes lit up. But in a flash he said sadly: "But you are the Champion Marquis, and your sworn sister is at least a fourth-grade imperial concubine. It's too early to mention this now. Let's talk about it after I become a Marquis."

"Come on, young man." Shen Zhui patted Kong Yangzhou's shoulder with satisfaction. "I'm optimistic about you."

…………

"Thousands of layers of land are flying in the sky, and ten thousand layers of towers are standing on the earth."

"Raising eyebrows amazes the sun and moon, walking in the sky."

Standing in the wide square under the gate of the twenty-fifth heaven, Shen Zhui recited the poems written by his predecessors with emotion. At this moment, the strange scene still did not dissipate. Different angles, different angles of view.

"This poem was written by Xie An, a talented man who won the first prize at the Moon Walking Banquet three hundred and fifty-two years ago. He is full of high spirits and full of ambition. It is quite appropriate for you to recite it." Kong Yangzhou laughed at the side.

"It's no use flattering me." Shen Zhui rolled his eyes and said. "Sister-in-law is thin-skinned. Don't expect me to help you with this kind of thing."

"Ahem...that's not what I meant." Kong Yangzhou's face turned red and he stopped talking.

"Don't come to visit us these days." When Shen Zhui heard the people from the Ministry of Rites urging him, he immediately waved goodbye to Kong Yangzhou. "Stay well in the Zhenguo General's Mansion."

"You too, look for Shuyuan www.zhaoshuyuan.com and take care of yourself." Kong Yangzhou also nodded. He is a general, and the general's residence arranged by the imperial court is naturally in the twenty-fifth heaven, Yue Xingtian. However, Shen Zhui and Lu Yuanwei are Wuhou, with higher rank, so naturally they live in different places.

Although generals like them can't run to find Shen Zhui, Kong Yangzhou knows Shen Zhui's life experience and can certainly understand a lot of things.

"Let's go." Shen Zhui waved his hand and got on the carriage again.

Back in the carriage space, Shen Zhui watched Shen Xinlan look away from the window.

Seeing Shen Zhui's half-smiling eyes, Shen Xinlan couldn't help lowering her head and said: "I, I just wanted to see what's different about the twenty-fifth heaven..."

"I didn't ask anything." Shen Zhui smiled narrowly. "If sister wants to watch, then keep watching. I'll just let the carriage stop for a while."

"No, no need." Shen Xinlan turned around and ran into the room.
