Chapter 144 Banquet (1) Five Thousand
Chapter 144: Banquet (Part 1) Five Thousand Votes Additional Updates
Once the capital of Wudu Hanzhong surrendered, the dragon sword stabilized, and the army returned with great victory.
Returning triumphantly and returning to the city with victory is a celebration.
"Well, it's going to be cleaned up." Wang Hongyi listened to Su'er's words, holding a pen and drawing on the paper. He stopped when he heard this, and nodding, "Last time, I asked you to survey temples in various places, how did you do it?"
Su'er closed the door tightly, cleared the table again, and spread a map. Wang Hongyi stepped forward and looked at the map quietly.
Su'er said, "Lord, there are 761 counties in these seventeen counties in Shu. The first batch of preliminary elections have been confirmed, and there are still some that have not been confirmed."
Wang Hongyi said: "I am still in this constitution for the matter of the gods."
"When you cultivate it in your body, your virtue will be true; when you cultivate it in your family, your virtue will be excess; when you cultivate it in your hometown, your virtue will be long; when you cultivate it in your country, your virtue will be abundant; when you cultivate it in the world, your virtue will be universal—the family god, the country god, the country god, and so on."
"The principle is to have good fortune in the right sacrifice, but there is no blessing in the lust, but there is room for nothing to leave. This is to worship the righteous god and not disturb it. If such lust sacrifice is to reduce the sacrifice. If the cult incites the foolish people and gathers people to plan, not only will the temple be demolished, but also the arrest and prosecutors are arrested and investigated to make a sound and watch the sound." Wang Hongyi said.
"Yes!!" Su'er replied simply.
Wang Hongyi nodded and asked again: "Are the banquet outside held?"
"Yes, it's all set up, and there will be rank officials and wives. Some major tribes in the city will also have chief officials." Su'er said.
Speaking of this, people have to think of Wang Hongyi's harem, which is still poor. Although Wang Hongyi has become a woman since he ascended the throne, there are many big tribes in Shu who have some expectations, and this time it even means to explore the wind.
Wang Hongyi smiled and said, "No, the time is over, I'll go now."
I saw hundreds of banquets in the hall, and busy figures came and went on the hall. At the third hour of the Youth hour, the banquet officially began.
Palace mermaids dressed in beautiful clothes entered one after another, lit up the palace lanterns in the hall, and the dazzling aurora was shining, which instantly made the hall bright as daytime.
There were constant sounds of light footsteps coming from afar, and the entire hall became quiet.
All civil and military officials were in their positions. On the left was civil and military officials, on the right were military generals, and behind the officials were the female relatives who accompanied them. They all sat together on one door and did not sit with the men.
Near the civil servants, there are some major clan leaders in the city, mostly sitting around the Song King tribes.
On the top of the steps is the seat of the concubines in the harem, on the left is the position of the prince's lady, and on the top is the seat of the Duke and the position of the official concubine.
At this time, everyone had arrived and they were waiting for these people to arrive.
"Brother, should the Duke of the Kingdom?" The Song brothers sitting near the seat were sitting on the steps, and the flattery of the people just now were missing. At this time, Song Heng was much more free, leaned slightly and whispered beside his brother: "Brother, after the banquet, you and I will stay in the villa for a few days."
Song Han looked at him. Although there were several big families at the banquet, he knew that the day of the clans' liquidation was not far away. My second brother was afraid of being entangled with these families not far from the unlucky day.
But this is just right, so I nodded: "Okay!"
Song Heng breathed a sigh, looked at the several houses sitting together without a trace, and sighed secretly.
These little moves behind their backs are not unknown, but they deserve their bad luck. Although they sigh that they will end up in the future, Song Heng will not take the initiative to find trouble.
It is impossible for a while to hide. There is no friendship between the big families in Shu. There are even some distant relatives, but everything has a slow and heavy relationship. For these families, the result is already destined. Whoever dares to plead for mercy at this time will be in trouble.
Who told them that they had a strange intention before and had connections with Qin Jing and even the King of Wu in the distance?
Thinking of this, Song Heng no longer thought about it, sat down and waited for the Duke of Shu to arrive.
Three quiet whips opened the way, and Song Xinyou, who was dressed up, accompanied Wang Hongyi, and behind him were Zhao Wan and Su'er, who were dressed up, and all the civil and military officials knelt on their way to greet him.
The voices of hundreds of people chanting in the hall sounded.
At this time, Wang Hongyi was wearing a seven-chapter crown and a seven-phase crown crown. His young face was calm and calm, his eyes were a little painted, his face turned into a jade-like crown, and his mouth was smiling.
Wang Hongyi entered the hall and saw the colorful silk tents and palace lanterns in the hall, which had already faintly the elegance of an emperor.
Wang Hongyi smiled and helped him with his hands: "Get up, today I set up a wedding banquet, and all these etiquettes are exempted."
He also ordered: "No need to be polite, just go to a banquet!"
In fact, according to the rules, Wang Hongyi came a little early, but although Wang Hongyi is a Duke, he is actually the lord of Shu, and he is the imperial family. Who dares to say more about this?
Wang Hongyi took the seat, smiled and glanced at the people in the hall, swept past several contemporary patriarchs of aristocratic families, and then sat upright with his knees.
This is the lord of the seventeen counties in Shu
Song Xinyou and the two girls walked to their seats and sat down.
"Thank you lord!" Everyone stood up and sat in their own position after thanking them.
"I am very happy today. Of course, I believe everyone here is also happy. The dragon swords that have troubled Shu for many years have finally surrendered. From now on, they are all citizens of Shu. It is a great thing for the unification of Shu. I hold this banquet to celebrate this matter. I hope that the heaven will give me kindness, the Shu will prosper and the people will be happy!"
"The lord is wise, and I hope that Shu can prosper and the people can live and work in peace and contentment!" The civil and military officials present hurriedly responded.
After they finished speaking, Wang Hongyi continued to speak, "This time, the soldiers who went to the battle made great contributions. In addition to the generals here, a group of soldiers have arrived in Chengdu. They all performed well in these battles. They are brave and good at fighting. They are my pillars. Although the grade is not enough to enter the hall, they can make an exception! People come and tell them to go to the hall!"
Seeing this, the eunuch on the side went out to pass the order.
Everyone in the hall was stunned and started whispering in a low voice.
"Brother, this move is quite innovative... What do you think?" Song Heng asked in a low voice.
Song Han looked at his daughter on the steps from afar, and after looking at her, he withdrew his gaze.
"The Duke of Shu was very wise. From now on, everyone in Shu knew that the Duke of Shu was based on his merits and merits. Heroes were rewarded regardless of their origins, and those who had merits were rewarded, and those who had mistakes were punished. These behaviors were the wise ruler."
Song Hengshen agreed with what his elder brother said.
In a blink of an eye, I saw several young people from aristocratic families not far away, and after they appeared and became quiet again.
How precious are these idiots really considered their family from a noble family?
When the war is in chaos, people in power will be provoked. No matter how many branches you have, it will only be a moment to be exterminated.
Shaking his head secretly, Song Heng made up his mind to avoid contact with these families and never cause any trouble for the Song family until the situation calmed down.
After a while, a group of soldiers came to the hall in military uniforms.
These soldiers are not old, and their heroic figure makes some people nod their heads secretly.
Attracting the eyes, not only were the civil and military officials in the hall, but also some of the female relatives who came with their husbands.
This time they came here, mostly with the intention of establishing a good relationship with their female relatives and contacting their husbands and colleagues.
I have an unmarried daughter at home and I secretly look for targets.
The family wanted to climb up to the Duke of the State, and was also considering whether there was such a possibility. The men had official social engagements before, and the women behind them were ready to go.
As soon as these young lieutenants arrived at the hall, they also attracted the attention of these women.
These people generally have low official positions, most of whom are in the 198th grade, and some are not even of grade. However, since they can enter the palace, it means that they have received Wang Hongyi's attention. As long as they are lucky in the future, they may not have a bright future.
In this chaotic era, several aristocratic families either exterminated their clans or were hit by various reasons, which made many female relatives no longer favor marriage with aristocratic families. If something happened to the other party for some reason, they would be involved. The rising stars who are simple and innocent in their own wealth and outstanding in their own abilities and trusted by Wang Hongyi make them value them more.
Of course, there are many people who have died in the world. These young people have too low status. The direct descendants cannot marry them. If they are concubines, they can. After all, it is impossible to be absolutely safe in troubled times. What you bet on is fate. If you lose, you will be just a concubine. If you win, you may be a help.
Wang Hongyi and Song Xinyou above saw this and just laughed at each other, and this matter was optimistic.
"Send the order." Wang Hongyi signaled to the eunuch beside him.
"No." The eunuch bowed respectfully to him and began to read the order.
In fact, the content was just to reward the people in the hall with gold, silver and cloth, and to promote their official positions and give them seats to attend the banquet.
Wang Hongyi then awarded more generals and officials, and the palace was filled with joy.
"But I'm impatient to wait?" Wang Hongyi turned around with a smile and asked the people around him in a low voice.
"I am still good, but I just can't understand these things." Song Xinyou said gently.
Wang Hongyi wanted to laugh a little, but he couldn't understand? But he said considerately: "Then let's start."
The eunuchs on the side understood and told the people outside that this was the meaning.
As a gentle music sounded, a group of dancers walked in from outside and danced gracefully to the music.
The dancers in the hall were carefully selected, with beautiful appearance, good dancing postures, and very pleasant music.
At first, everyone in the hall was still very restrained. Later, everyone gradually became drunk and was already a little relieved. Looking at the crowd below, they were filled with cups and a peaceful look. Wang Hongyi, who was sitting at the seat, looked at the figures sitting in the corner.
"Husband." He did not withdraw his gaze and turn his head until the call came from the side.
Song Xinyou whispered: "Today is a happy time..."
Needless to say, Wang Hongyi already understood.
Seeing him spread his eyebrows, Song Xinyou smiled and said nothing more. It was late at night that the banquet ended.
With the help of the palace servants, Song Xinyou turned around and looked at the messy hall, knowing that after the unification of Shu, it was necessary to clean up.
Chapter completed!
