The Great Chu Imperial Tomb is located on Jingshan Mountain in the Longxing Land of Chu State.
In the past, Taizu left an ancestral motto, "All the emperors of the Zhao family, unless they unified the world, will be buried on Jingshan Mountain after death. All descendants of the Zhao family are not allowed to wear fancy clothes when worshiping the emperor's mausoleum. They must be simple to show filial piety." "
After the motorcade stopped at the foot of Jingshan Mountain, Zhao Yu put on a plain coat made of linen and a white belt, holding a thick wooden staff. Under the protection of Zhang Xiu and dozens of guards, he stepped on the steps made of bluestone. , heading towards the top of Jingshan Mountain.
Zhao Yu also has martial arts skills, so even if the mountain road is rugged, Zhao Yu still walks very smoothly.
Passing through the main entrance with the phoenix pattern carved on it, he stepped onto the long Shinto. He glanced past the stone figures standing with swords on both sides of the Shinto, and looked at the towering buildings a hundred meters away. For some reason, Zhao Yu felt deep in his heart. A resonance arose everywhere.
"Zhang Chong, the envoy guarding the mausoleum, has met Marquis An Guo!"
A slightly old voice brought Zhao Yu's thoughts back to reality.
The speaker was an old man with white beard and hair, but a very energetic man.
"Yu has met Eunuch Zhang."
Facing this rather kind old man, Zhao Yu quickly bowed respectfully to him.
According to the ancestral teachings, the guardians of the imperial mausoleums of Da Chu are usually the emperor's most trusted ministers after the emperor's death.
The biggest advantage of doing this is that it can effectively curb the rise of eunuch power.
Da Chu has gone through eight generations, and for more than two hundred years, there has never been a situation where eunuchs disrupted the government. This is the best proof.
And now the mausoleum guard, Zhang Chong, Eunuch Zhang, was also a powerful figure in those days. He personally led troops to suppress the barbaric rebellion in the south dozens of times. He had great military exploits and was respectfully called "Zhang Taiwei" by people.
After the late emperor Yu Long passed away, this Eunuch Zhang also bravely retired and took up the post of guardian of the imperial mausoleum.
"Please, Lord Marquis, follow the old slave to the palace hall to worship the portrait of your ancestors."
Zhang Chong said warmly.
When the imperial mausoleum was built, it was designed to imitate the structure of Shenjing City. The entire imperial mausoleum consists of the palace city, the imperial city and the outer city, just like a small city.
The place where Zhao Yu and others are now is the outermost part of the imperial mausoleum.
Zhao Yu nodded towards Zhang Xiu, and walked through the city gate with Eunuch Zhang one after another and walked into the imperial mausoleum.
Zhang Xiu understood and asked several strong guards to accompany him, carrying the prepared animals and animals, and followed Zhao Yu, while the rest of the guards stayed outside the city gate.
Passing through the city gate, crossing the Shinto, and walking on the Jade Bridge, the golden palaces and towers on both sides stand majestic and majestic.
On both sides of the Shinto, there are thick old cypress trees, and the green shade in the sky blocks the sunlight, causing the temperature of the entire imperial tomb to drop a little. In addition to giving people a sense of coldness, it also creates a sense of solemnity and solemnity in the heart.
Following Eunuch Zhang into the sacrificial hall, what caught Zhao Yu's eyes were statues of the previous emperors of Chu.
With Taizu as the center, the statues of Taizong, Wuzong, Renzong, Mingzong, Suzong, Zhongzong, Dezong and others are arranged on the left and right.
Emperor Daxing, who died recently, has no statue inside because the ministers have not yet agreed on his posthumous title.
Zhang Xiu and his guards arranged the animals for sacrifice, and then exited the sacrificial hall.
In the sacrificial hall, only Zhao Yu and Eunuch Zhang were left.
"kneel!"
Eunuch Zhang, standing aside, shouted in a low voice.
"Unworthy descendants, Yu, worship our ancestors!"
Kneeling in front of the statues of the late Chu emperors, he kowtowed respectfully three times, then stood up, took the large incense stick as thick as an arm from Eunuch Zhang, and inserted it into the giant bronze incense burner in front of the statue.
"Unworthy descendants, Yu, please protect me from your ancestors. May the weather in Chu be smooth and the people be healthy!"
After kowtowing three times again, Zhao Yu inserted the second large incense into the incense burner.
"Unworthy descendant, Yu, swore in front of the tomb of his ancestors that he will regain the five mansions in this life, engulf the whole world, swallow up all the wastelands, and exaggerate the prestige of our great Chu country!"
The five prefectures mentioned by Zhao Yu refer to the three prefectures of Guangling, Zhongping, and Dongchang in the north of the Yangtze River, and the two prefectures of Pingxi and Dingyuan in the southwest. The three prefectures in the north of the Yangtze River were captured by the Northern Qi Dynasty during the reign of Emperor Mingzong; the second prefecture in the southwest fell into the hands of the Burmese state due to barbaric chaos in the Miao border during the reign of Emperor Zhongzong. Since then, these five state capitals have become an eternal pain in the hearts of the kings and ministers of Chu.
"Master Hou is indeed very ambitious!"
Hearing Zhao Yu's oath, Eunuch Zhang's eyes lit up, and finally he couldn't hold it back and began to praise him.
Although newborn calves are not afraid of tigers, not everyone can make such a vow.
Although Zhang Chong was called "Captain Zhang" back then, both he and Dezong, whom he served, often regretted not being able to regain the Five Prefectures.
Just when Zhao Yu was about to say a few words of courtesy, a loud roar of a dragon suddenly came from his ears.
The next moment, the all-too-familiar mechanical female voice sounded in his ears.
【Ding! Obtained the recognition of the True Dragon of Chu State, obtained the Imperial Power Value of 100, obtained a random card (white)*1, and obtained a random card (blue)*1! 】
After quietly glancing at Eunuch Zhang who was standing not far away, Zhao Yu just breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that he didn't react at all. He was sure that only he could hear the dragon's roar and the system's voice.
However, looking at the two cards that appeared in the system backpack, Zhao Yu couldn't help but curl his lips.
My ancestors, you are too stingy...
In the plug-in he got, cards of different colors represent different levels. From low to high, they are white, blue, purple and gold, and the quality also increases step by step.
In addition, the cards are divided into four types: monarch and minister strategies.
The Jun Card covers the emperors of all dynasties in China from the Shang Dynasty to the Qing Dynasty. Zhao Yu can equip the Jun Card on himself to obtain various attributes, skills, buffs, etc.
Chenka can summon famous officials, generals, extraordinary scholars and beauties in ancient China, for Zhao Yu's use. Of course, if it is a minister card from the Ming and Qing dynasties, there is also a chance of summoning overseas famous ministers, beauties, etc.
These famous ministers, generals, beauties, and heroes summoned by the cards will appear on this continent with various identities and with various purposes, and through various methods, they will move towards where Zhao Yu is. Come together and be his help.
Most of the cards are national system policies or strategies and tricks, and most of them are one-time cards. After use, various policies and strategies can be opened, which can accelerate the development of the national economy and people's livelihood of the entire country and enhance national strength.
As for the weapon card, it is a famous and important national weapon in ancient China. It may be a magical weapon, a military strategy, or a wonder technology, and its functions are numerous.
The reason why Zhao Yu complained was because the two cards he got this time were the lowest and second lowest colors, white and blue respectively.
After all, you are also the late emperor of Chu. Let alone golden cards, at least you have to give them purple cards to take care of your descendants, right?
result?
That's it!
Complaints are complaints, but Zhao Yu didn't have any habit of playing cards, so he directly opened these two random cards.
Tunka?
What Tunka!
What Zhao Yu lacks most now is the means to turn it into immediate combat power, okay?
