There is a little-known but very important organization on the grassland called the Joint Elders.
The most virtuous and respected people from each tribe participate in it and form a group of elders to assist the government.
This is similar to but different from Jing Kingdom.
Relatively speaking, the joint elders are the sharers of the monarchy. At the earliest, they were under the divine authority alongside Mu Tianzi. Over time, authority slowly wanes.
The current function is more similar to the Qi State Political Affairs Hall, but it only has the power of court meetings. The specific authority depends on the strength of the tribe it represents.
But it cannot be said that the joint elders' body is a complete decoration.
The public security agency of the Mu Kingdom [Cang Yu], officially known as [Cang Yu Xun Shou Ya], is under the control of the Joint Elders Group. Therefore, on this grassland, the Joint Elders still have an unquestionable status.
The old man who just talked to Tu Hu was the chief elder of the joint elders group.
If you can freely comment on Momen Juzi with Tu Hu, you are naturally a true king of the world.
Its name is——
Bo'er only Jin·Ekelei!

"Look, I still have a Feiya brand here."
Jiang Wang held the round animal domino in his hand and joked with Yu Wenduo.
Back then, he was traveling through the grassland and saved some herdsmen from the white-haired wind. Fei Ya, who was affiliated with Cang Yu Xun Shou Yamen, happened to come to the rescue. Seeing that he had finished all the rescue work, he gave him a Fei Ya tablet and told him to go to the royal court to receive the reward.
Just now, the two of them happened to be chatting about Fei Ya and Yuwen Duo's days of training in Cang Yu. Speaking of which, he has also investigated the case, and he is half a colleague of the famous Jiang Captou.
Yu Wenduo also laughed, laughed for a while, and said with some stumbles: "Actually, today's matter..."
"When it comes to solving crimes, I know a friend who is very good." Jiang Wang said in a relaxed tone: "She is a famous arrester, and her skills are inherited from her family. She is also naturally strong and smart. It is really difficult to hide the ghosts and ghosts. See, if you ask her to take a look at any case, she will definitely be able to find clues!"
Yu Wenduo accompanied him and said: "Dragon does not live with snakes. How can you, a friend of Marquis Wu'an, be any worse? With such a miraculous case-solving method, the next patrolling captain will definitely not be able to escape."
The most important thing for the Inspector Captain is not his ability to solve cases. But there is no need to say this to Yuwen Duo.
Jiang Wang just smiled: "She is not suitable for being in the officialdom. Now she is going to Sanxing Palace to practice. She will have a bright future in the future!"
"The official path is not the only one. Sanxing Palace is a good place. It is the Holy Land of Legalism. When I was Fei Ya, I also wanted to go to further training!"
Yu Wenduo was indeed not a chatty person, and he answered the conversation too stiffly.
But his desire to eliminate the grudge is still very obvious.
"Okay, okay, you don't have to talk to me here anymore. Go visit your Shen'en Temple." Jiang Wang said with a smile, "I will practice some more later."
"Brother, look at what you said, am I such a person who doesn't understand moderation?" Yuwen Duo paused, and then said: "Actually, His Highness Yun was busy with something today and didn't plan to go to Qingya Terrace. It's just that. Let me record your duel with a photo stone, so that she can watch it with Rucheng later. But when she heard that you had met Master Tu Hu in the border wilderness, she decided to come over in person... and she also brought Xiyue'an's Master."
"Speaking of the master of Xiyue Temple..." Jiang Wang asked, "Who is this person here today?"
"It's Master Yuhua." Out of some compensatory mentality, Yuwenduo added a secret message in a rather mysterious way: "I heard that she is very likely to become the next head of Miaoyou Zhaitang."
Yuhua!
That complicated night seemed to be floating before my eyes again.
Yuhua is still fighting for this first position and hasn't sat on it yet?
Generally speaking, after fighting for so long, you should be able to sit on it long ago. It hasn't been successful yet, and I'm still trying, so it's almost certain to fail.
I don’t know if Master Yuhua really didn’t see clearly, or if she was deceiving herself.
Jiang Wang thought again. The position of the first seat of Miaoyou Zhaitang has been vacant for so long. It is obviously not prepared for Yuhua...
Who are you waiting for?
He said calmly: "Speaking of which, how could Your Highness Yun be on good terms with the master of Xiyue Temple? I remember that she also brought a master to watch the battle at the Yellow River Summit. The grassland bathed in the divine light , will we still give space to Bodhisattvas and Buddhas?”
Regarding Cangtu Divine Sect, Jiang Wang had a very impressive detail.
On the way to Guanhe Terrace, the Muguo people would cover up the relief sculpture of Suan Ni even when crossing a stone bridge, to show that the Muguo people's incense was indistinguishable.
It would be fine to say that Helian Yunyun had personal relationships with a few masters. Now that the masters of Xiyue Temple came to the Supreme Court at such a critical time, it was clear that they were here for the succession ceremony of the Divine Crown Priest. Wouldn’t Cangtu Divine Sect have any objections?
Yu Wenduo was silent for a moment, and finally showed his greatest sincerity today, and said: "The greatness of Cangtu God is like the boundlessness of the sky. The world illuminated by Cangtu God's divine light accommodates the existence of all things. Of course, including Xiyue nunnery.”
Jiang Wang was shocked and speechless by the information in this sentence.
Only then did he suddenly remember that after coming to the grassland this time, the people in the grassland seemed to pay more attention to the god Cangtu as "the supreme god".
"Supreme God" is of course also a very high-level honorific, but in the past, grassland people preferred to promote "the only true god".
The Supreme God overlooks but acknowledges other great beings, while the One True God excludes all. There is a fundamental change between the two.
He didn't realize such obvious information until now!
If it were Chong Xuan Sheng, he would probably realize the problem at the first hearing. He was really too focused on practice and lacked some sensitivity to the current situation.
He wanted to ask more, but he knew it was not appropriate. Yuwen Duo could say this in advance, which was already very sincere. He wanted to maintain the relationship between Jiang Wang and Helian Yunyun. This was probably what Helian Yunyun said about him. his request.
After thinking about it, Jiang Wang said: "The grassland has a pleasant scenery. It would be great if the restrictions were relaxed. But I am worried that the fish and dragons will come in rashly, and I don't know how many monsters and ghosts will disturb the scenery."
Yu Wenduo said: "You will find gold in the big waves. Besides, the grassland is very big, and the eagles, horses, cattle and sheep all have their own places to go."
Jiang Wang thoughtfully said: "It seems that the grassland will soon become lively. If Brother Yuwen has time in the future, how about helping me pay attention to a force called Wusheng Sect?"
Zhang Linchuan's Wusheng Cult is developing at a very evil speed. In a very short period of time, it has developed in Yongguo, Chengguo, Jiaoguo and other places. Jiang Wang had previously settled a Wusheng Sect station in Chengguo, but he had not been able to find out whether it was true or not. He only listened to the "Shenshi Sutra" and felt very fearful.
If the grasslands were deregulated, he thought Wusheng Cult might not miss this opportunity.
"Of course it's no problem!" Yu Wenduo beat his chest loudly.
I'm not afraid that Jiang Wang will trouble me, but I'm afraid that he won't bother me.
After patting his chest, he asked again: "Brother Jiang and this Wusheng Cult, do you have any old relationship or enmity?"
At least on the three-thirds of an acre of grassland, he is very confident: "If you have any old friends, I will take care of them. If you have any grudges, I will take care of them too!"
"No need to take care of him, just help me find out the truth." Jiang Wang said casually.
In fact, he didn't have high hopes. Wusheng Cult might not come to the grassland to develop. What's more, he just wanted to find an excuse to trouble Yuwen Duo to show that he had no grudges.
When Jiang Wang said this, Yuwen Duo naturally understood that he and the Wu Sheng Sect were not harmonious old friends.
Immediately expressed his position: "It's okay if you can't teach me this. If you enter the grassland, I will discipline you to know the color of their underwear!"
"Hahaha, thank you!" Jiang Wang laughed and pushed him out of the courtyard gate, continuing his practice for the day.
…
…
The blue sky divine flag representing the Great Mu Empire is flying high in the sky, surrounded by divine light, showing the majesty of a great power.
It was cloudless and the sky was just perfect.
This is June 27, 3921 in the Taoist calendar, which is June 28, 5372 in the divine calendar. The succession ceremony for the high priest of Shenmian Preaching was officially held at the Shenguang Altar.
The divine calendar is naturally the calendar of the Mu Kingdom, which is also the only country in the world whose calendar age exceeds the Xinqi Dao calendar.
Of course, this does not mean that Muguo really has a longer history than Jingguo.
Five thousand three hundred and seventy-two years ago, it was the legendary day when Cangtu God became enlightened. That year was counted as the first year of the divine calendar. In other words, God Cangtu became enlightened in modern times. Of course, the pastoralists generally believe it, but it is not widely recognized internationally.
It is said that the Cangtu Divine Cult was the first to formulate a divine calendar. They also wanted to push it forward hundreds of thousands of years and start counting from the medieval era when the legendary Cangtu God was born. However, they gave up because it was too outrageous.
Jingguo once publicly stated that Cangtu God only became enlightened by picking up nutrients from the end of the mythical age. It is said that "it is a lucky coincidence that the wolf and eagle are crowned", and it is emphasized that the time when Cangtu God became enlightened was after the new beginning of the Taoist calendar... The two countries have fought over this countless times.
Both sides have some evidence, and it belongs to the public's argument that the public is justified and the mother-in-law is justified.
Jiang Wang said - I believe in Sima Heng.
"Historical Swords Cut the Sea" records clearly that the founding of the Muguo was actually in the year 2754 in the divine calendar. The entire pastoral country only has a history of 2,600 years.
This is something that both Jing and Mu agree on.
As for the history related to Cangtu God, Sima Heng kept it secret.
There are six volumes of "Mu Lue", starting from the founding of the People's Republic of China and ending before the Empress. It does not trace back to the gods, nor criticize politics and religion. It only tells the evolution of the empire on the grassland, and implements Sima Heng's principle of writing history.
The Altar of Divine Light is the largest and most powerful altar in the Supreme Court. In the entire grassland, it is second only to the one on the top of Qionglu Mountain.
The huge square under the altar can accommodate 100,000 worshipers at the same time. It is no problem to entertain envoys from various countries.
As the envoy of Daqi, Jiang Wang naturally sat closest to the altar and was the core of the core.
The five sides of Qi, Chu, Qin, Jing, and Jing were juxtaposed.
Jiang Wang, Douzhao, Huang Budong, Murong Longqie, and Chen Suan, the five envoys sat under the national flags of their respective countries. The guards behind him are all elite warriors who accompanied him on the mission. The Tianfu Army, the Divine Sin Army, the Suppression Army, the Red Horse Guards, and the Dou'e Army are all powerful armies in the world. At this time, they show the majesty of the country.
The number of teams on all sides is not small.
Envoys from other countries, such as Qu Guo, Zheng Guo, etc., have to stay outside.
At this time, Yu Wenduo was among the envoys from Qi State, and he stood next to Jiang Wang and said mysteriously: "Let me tell you, the underwear of that unborn mother is..."
"Let's get down to business!" Jiang Wang stopped him: "Discussing it at the succession ceremony of the Crown Priest... Bah, why are you discussing other people's underwear!"
Yuwen Duo shook his head, seemingly innocent: "Didn't you say you wanted to know last time?"
Moreover, Jiang Wang mentioned the Wu Sheng Sect to him before, so he went back to investigate it carefully.
If you don't check, let's go and check, and you really find traces of Wusheng Cult entering the grassland!
It is said that in the current grassland, the Cangtu Divine Sect is extremely exclusive. There is absolutely no possibility of competing for faith among small sects such as Wusheng Cult.
But the people who preached the Wusheng Cult were very clever. They preached that their ancestors of the Wusheng Cult were followers of God Cangtu. Before God Cangtu became enlightened, he had already served the gods.
In short, a lot of legends and stories were made up, supplemented by some songs and sung, the core of which is to express - Cangtu God is supreme, and there are billions of people who believe in him, and he can't take care of him. The believers pray to the gods of Cangtu God in the same way. The Wusheng Cult Ancestor’s magical skills were all personally passed down by God Cangtu. Although they are not as powerful as Cangtu God, it is still not a problem to resolve some small disasters and tribulations.
Historically, no sect, no matter how big or small, has said that the gods it believes in are incompetent. Don't you see, the Heguo is a small country with almost no influence among the countries in the world. But the original god is known as "the son of the blue sky, the first god in the world", and his style is much higher than the Cangtu god who claims to be enlightened in recent times.
Who wouldn't brag about his own gods when it comes to preaching?
Whose god is not omnipotent and omniscient?
However, Wu Sheng Cult took a different approach and engaged in parasitic preaching. They first reduced their own trinity of divine master, Taoist master, and religious leader into a servant of Cangtu God, and then stole the faith of Cangtu God.
Because the bulk of the belief still falls on Cangtu God, it would be difficult to find any clues unless Yu Wenduo, with the support of Helian Yunyun, did a detailed study, and with the specific characteristics provided by Jiang Wang.
If it were in the past, this small sect would have dared to hide the truth like this. Once discovered, the Cangtu Divine Sect had no choice but to send out several golden crown priests to wipe out all the gods that the other party believed in.
But as of now... Muguo actually doesn't mind.
It was only after Jiang Wang mentioned it that Yuwen Duo took action.
Stealing faith under the eyes of Cangtu God, Wu Sheng Cult was also cautious and developed very slowly. But Yu Wenduo knew very well that with such cunning and sophisticated missionary methods as Wu Sheng Cult, by the time today is over, the grasslands may usher in a period of rapid development.
He found out the opponent's background in a very short period of time, so he came to Jiang Wang to offer his treasure at this time.
Jiang Wang glanced sideways at him: "Now that I'm talking about this, let me remind you. You can just joke with me about Shen'en Temple and underwear. I am a person who is used to seeing trouble. You are old enough. He's still young, don't do this in front of him and teach him bad things."
Yuwen Duo's eyes were strange.
Rucheng knows a lot more than you, okay? Third brother, you are really old-fashioned.
"Did you hear that?" Jiang Wang increased his intimidation in his eyes.
Yuwenduo curled his lips and was about to deal with it when he suddenly stared blankly and looked ahead - that was where the four golden-crowned priests were sitting on the altar.
Jiang Wang followed him subconsciously and was stunned.
A sound of announcement came at the right time——
"Winter Emperor, please take your seat!"
The new true king of the Snow Kingdom, a powerful man named Winter Emperor, finally showed up!
Thanks to the leader Evanschen for accumulating silver, this is the 18th Silver Alliance for the Red Heart!
(This is Chen Meng’s trumpet)
(I still owe 2 and 3. The advantage is mine.)
