Before the Great Zhou Dynasty, there were two powerful dynasties, Xia and Shang.

The Shang Dynasty destroyed the Xia Dynasty for more than a thousand years. Due to King Zhou’s cruel and tyrannical cruelty, King Wu of Zhou led the princes to raise an army to attack Zhou, and the Shang Dynasty was then destroyed.

However, according to the etiquette system of feudal system, even if the Shang Dynasty was destroyed, the previous nobles and sects could not be exterminated.

Therefore, when King Wu divided the titles of princes, King Zhou's son Wu Geng was divided into Yin territory to worship his clan.

After King Wu of Zhou passed away, Wu Geng led his troops to rebel and wanted to restore the glory of the Shang Dynasty, but was killed by Zhou Gongping. He also named King Zhou's concubine Wei Zi Qi in Shangqiu, and his country was named Song.

Since then, the Song Dynasty has been established for thousands of years.

According to bloodline, the royal family of the Song Kingdom actually flows with the blood of the Shang Dynasty royal family. In the highly hierarchical Jiuzhou Continent, this bloodline is undoubtedly very noble.

Even though the Shang Dynasty has been destroyed for thousands of years, this glory inherited from bloodlines is still inherited by the Song royal family, and it is also the capital of the Song royal family's pride.

Since the royal family of the Song State originated from the orthodox Shang Dynasty, even though the times continue to change, the Song State still pays great attention to tradition.

However, compared with the Lu State, which followed the Zhou royal family's etiquette and law, many of the traditions followed by the Song State came from the Shang Dynasty, which made the customs of the Song State somewhat different from those of other countries.

After Huan Chang said goodbye to Han Shaoyun, he went to Piaoxue Peak, but learned that A Niu had gone into seclusion and would not see anyone in recent years.

In desperation, Huan Chang had no choice but to say goodbye to the Lord of Piaoxue Peak and rushed towards the State of Song.

When he entered the territory of Song State, Huan Chang felt a deep discomfort, and he even felt that he had come to the legendary Shang Dynasty.

Compared with other countries, the Song State seemed more harmonious, the people's personalities were very gentle, and the government advocated benevolence and righteousness, and the laws were relatively relaxed.

Huan Chang slowed down Xiao Hei and slowly traveled within the territory of Song.

During this period, Huan Chang saw that a thief was captured by an official, but the government did not punish the thief. Instead, he took him to his hometown and released the thief.

When the neighbors learned that there was a thief in the village, they were all very ashamed. The thief actually jumped into the river and committed suicide because of shame.

If Huan Chang hadn't happened to pass there and rescued the thief, he would have been dead. However, since then, the thief had never had the face to return home and left the country and disappeared.

In addition, while Huan Chang was rushing, he also found that many people did not close their doors at night and did not pick up their own remains on the road.

This trend also surprised Huan Chang very much, and he did not expect that the security of the Song Dynasty was so good.

The most important thing is that compared with other countries, warriors in the Song Dynasty were very rare. Huan Chang walked through several counties and cities, but not many warriors he met.

As for those with high martial arts skills, there are very few.

"Is this the Song Kingdom? It's really special!"

At this time, Huan Chang seemed to understand why the founder of Shujian Pavilion back then helped the State of Song.

Shujian Pavilion first writes and then swords. Although it is also a hidden sect, it has a kind of elegance in its bones, which is very consistent with the style of the Song Dynasty.

Huan Chang traveled in the Song State for more than two months, and the New Year has passed, and he still has not gone directly to Shangqiu, the capital of the Song State.

In the peaceful atmosphere of the Song Dynasty, Huan Chang also felt that his mind had been sublimated, and the violent aura accumulated in his body before it was slowly melted away.

"No wonder the disciples of major sects will travel to the vassal states of the nine provinces after reaching a certain level. Only by seeing the different scenery of the vassal states can the horizon become broader."

In the path of martial arts practice, there is no possibility of reaching the peak by relying on assassination.

Cultivation is also a way to cultivate the mind and ask the Tao. Everything in the world has its own trajectory, and these trajectories are also Tao. Only by touching these trajectories can the realm of a warrior continue to improve.

In the end, when a warrior can completely see a certain trajectory, he can even transcend it, and become a peerless powerful man who can break through the mystery of life and death.

During the trip, Huan Chang felt that his mood was constantly improving, and the true energy in his body slowly increased. Although he had not reached the peak of entering the room, he continued to accumulate.

"In Song State, I felt a natural way. There were no too many laws here. Even the government was unwilling to solve problems forcibly."

"It is incredible that Song State can survive to this day."

Although the customs of the Song State made the country extremely peaceful, it also led to the government being too weak. The army was far from the rest of the princes in terms of combat effectiveness and quantity.

In fact, if the Song State had not had its previous glory and inherited the royal blood of the Shang Dynasty, it would have been destroyed long ago.

"This kind of country is too ideal. Although the people live and work in peace, they are not suitable for living in this great struggle."

Looking at the Song people who were smiling while walking, Huan Chang suddenly felt a little heartbroken. He didn't know how long the Song State could maintain the status quo under such an environment.

In the past two years, Huan Chang had long felt that the nine provinces were in turmoil, and the genius disciples of various major sects emerged, and the vassal states were also making great moves, wanting to recruit talents to carry out reforms and strengthen the country.

In addition, the treaty signed that year has expired and the five major hidden sects have been born one after another. Huan Chang could predict that the Jiuzhou would sooner or later storm waves would be set off.

Huan Chang was a little worried that the weak Song State had no way to protect itself under such storm.

"If you are rich, you will benefit the world; if you are poor, you will be safe."

"I am just a little man now and cannot affect the situation in Jiuzhou at all. I can't control what the future of Song State will be."

In the end, Huan Chang sighed.

In fact, Huan Chang had another thought, that is, he was somewhat suspicious that Shujiange had a conflict with the Song royal family.

Otherwise, Master Xu Wang would not have taken him to hide in Lu State for so many years.

"I just want to know what kind of life I have now."

Huan Chang shook his head and couldn't help but hold the jade pendant tightly in his hand. Feeling the warm feeling from the jade pendant, Huan Chang's mood, which was unpredictable in ancient and modern times, was actually a little pounding.

Over the years, although Huan Chang rarely mentioned his parents, he also wanted to know his life experience very much.

However, when he was a child, Huan Chang asked Xu Wang many times, but Xu Wang always talked about him and refused to tell Huan Chang the truth.

The only clue left to Huan Chang was his surname and the jade pendant he wore.

In the past, Huan Chang didn’t know how special his surname was. It was not until after meeting Fang Li in Qufu and listening to the other party’s explanation that he realized that this surname had long disappeared.

Even if it existed, it was related to the royal family of the Song Dynasty.

At that time, Fang Li also mentioned the evolution of the surnames of the royal family of Song Gong, among which eight major surnames were: Song, Kong, Hua, Xiao, Dai, Huan, Niu, and Mu.

Many of these surnames evolved from Zi surnames.

The Duke Xiang of Song originally took Zi as his surname, but for some reason, Zi's surname has almost disappeared.

The jade pendant worn by Huan Chang is said to be related to the royal family of the Song Dynasty, because the jade pendant has the word "zi" engraved on it, and there is also a pattern representing the royal family of the Song Dynasty.
