royal palace.
At dawn, the sound of bells and drums rang through the sky, urging officials to come to court as soon as possible. The officials set out from their mansions, passed through the vermilion gate of the imperial city, and walked towards the palace.
In Fengtian Hall, officials lined up in front of the hall according to official rank, chatting in low voices, waiting for the emperor's arrival. At this time, the eunuchs held the imperial edict wrapped in yellow silk and hurried past them and entered the main hall.
The drums beat loudly and the emperor appears.
He was sitting on a dragon chair, with gorgeous dragon flags and attendants behind him. The emperor's eyes swept across the queue, and the officials bowed their heads in obeisance and shouted in unison: "Long live, long live, long live!"
The sound echoed in the hall, shocking people's hearts.
Subsequently, the court meeting began, and the emperor listened to the reports of the officials and made decisions one by one.
During this process, the hall was silent, with only the emperor's voice echoing. The officials stood up straight, listened carefully to the instructions, and recorded them for execution when they returned.
Nowadays, the world is peaceful and peaceful, and there are great cultivators guarding the four places. Many major disasters have been nipped in the cradle before they appear. Most of the discussions in all the court meetings are new things.
Now that humans, monsters and monsters have become one clan, there are many things that are inconsistent with the ancestral rules and must be changed.
For example: According to regulations, regarding the division of the four tribes of monsters and monsters, some ethnic groups, such as the Mountain God Clan, have to draw a clear line between themselves and the tribe of monsters and monsters, and must be worshiped by humans unless they claim to be gods.
Also, the subject that new alien races, including humans, must learn is the Pure Heart Curse. If they fail to pass the Pure Heart Curse, they will not even have the opportunity to go to school and continue their studies. Parents and elders will be punished for privately teaching spells and cultivation.
As a result, many great practitioners were dissatisfied. Are there any restrictions on what parents can give their children? Not convinced!
There are even more problems with intermarriage. Some ethnic groups have both boys and girls, and they have children of both sexes. Some children are married off, and some take wives. How should inheritance rights be calculated in this way?
There are also those weird people who make friends with human women. One day they suddenly want to communicate in depth, and then the female Tian Kui arrives and scatters the weird body. Is that considered murder or intentional harm?
There are also some plant-based monsters who are keen on others enjoying their fruits. They will actively give them to others even if they don't need them. However, after they transform, they enjoy them in a strange way, such as coconut trees. Does this count as sexual harassment?
…
It was not until evening that the court meeting finally dispersed, and the emperor was so noisy by the ministers that he was dizzy. Everyone has their own opinions on these strange questions, and even make some very outrageous suggestions.
For example, the remains of human beings after death can be sold directly to those tree monsters, and the government can also open a long-term loan, sell houses and land, etc. After death, can't you still make money and repay the loan if you become a ghost?
There are many key issues. Father Zhong has not come back, and he cannot make the decision.
When it comes to the orders of great cultivators and emperors, they don't listen at all. There are only two orders in the world that they will be afraid of, one is Prince Zuo, and the other is the mysterious and lustful little yellow cat.
"Your Majesty, it's time for dinner!"
The emperor nodded and sat down: "Well! Let's serve it!"
At noon, he casually dealt with the civil and military officials in the Fengtian Palace and took a bite of the instant pre-prepared dish introduced by some idiot. It was claimed to be simple, fast, clean, hygienic and nutritious, but he couldn't even take half a bite of the taste.
But as an emperor, he naturally had to set an example, so he had to force himself to eat it. After eating, he felt a little uncomfortable, so he quickly took a Bu Yuan Dan to calm down his shock.
Uncomfortable!
Central hall.
When the emperor saw the people sitting at the dinner table, he looked surprised, and then he was overjoyed: "Father Zhong, when did you come back?"
After saying that, he scolded the eunuch who was waiting on the side: "Slave dog, why didn't you tell me earlier when Father Zhong came back? I could prepare a grand welcome ceremony and go out of the city to greet him in person, and be the first to talk to Father Zhong."
"Your Majesty, forgive me, this slave deserves to die!"
Zuo Zixiong raised his hand to stop him: "Your Majesty, in the new era, there are no more slaves.
, everyone has his or her own personal rights, freedom, and dignity. "
The eunuch immediately knelt down, looking horrified.
"Your Highness, I have already decided to dedicate everything I have to Your Majesty. If you want me to die, I will die voluntarily. Please don't say this again."
Prince Zuo was a little helpless.
Although it is a new court and a new world, there are still too many people who want to be dogs, and they are even more willing to use their lives to maintain their right to be dogs.
Why?
The new emperor of the Ming Dynasty was named Chongzhen. The previous emperor inherited the throne inexplicably. After finding that he didn't have to do anything, he played songs every night and even tried various alien games.
As a result, even with various tonics and the services of practitioners, he still died young. But because he made no contribution during his reign, he is still serving in the underworld, waiting for the opportunity to be reincarnated as an adult.
Of course, I heard that the guy wanted to be reincarnated into a Yellow-bellied Iron-clawed Bunting, because according to research by researchers, Yellow-bellied Iron-clawed Buntings have to mate at least 365 times a week, and when the desire is strong, they mate more than five times an hour.
In the end, he was directly rejected by the Ministry of Reincarnation Affairs because this behavior really discredited the human race.
Then the emperor succeeded to the throne, with the reign name Chongzhen. In his view, taking over the mess left by his father and brother was the time to revitalize the Ming Dynasty. "Chongzhen" and "revitalization" are homophones, which is consistent with his ideals of governing the country.
Chongzhen sat next to Zuo Zixiong and personally served the meal with the dignity of an emperor, showing great courtesy.
He still respected his father-in-law very much. I not only respect his invincible power, but also feel grateful. If this man hadn't come out of the blue to turn the tide and help the building to collapse, the crumbling Ming Dynasty would have disappeared long ago, and there would be no current prosperous age of Chongzhen.
My dear, there is more to come after this chapter. Please click on the next page to continue reading. There will be more exciting chapters later!
Maybe he will be recorded in the history books in the future.
However, sometimes people's desires are higher than the sky.
The little yellow cat jumped up and down on the big long table, taking a bite of this one and a bite of that one. Prince Zuo didn't mind and ate what the little yellow cat jumped over.
While eating the meal and drinking the ginseng tea, Chongzhen said intentionally or unintentionally: "Father Zhong, my son is now an adult. According to the rules of the Ming Dynasty, shouldn't it be time to do something practical for the people and the world? I don't want to be with my brother. Likewise, I will have to serve in the underworld after death, which is too embarrassing."
Lao Zuo was a little surprised: "Why did your Majesty say this? Nowadays, aren't all major affairs in the world decided by your Majesty and the ministers?"
"Father Zhong, I mean, all rights! The emperor is supposed to be supreme, but now the soldiers and horses in the world and even the imperial guards in the capital only obey the orders of Father Zhong. I feel like a decoration. .
Do you think this is good? "
Lao Zuo laughed: "Your Majesty, how far has your martial arts cultivation reached? Even if I give up my position to you now, do you think they will listen to you?"
"Haha, Father Zhong is joking. Today is a peaceful and prosperous age. As an emperor, the child is a noble person. He only needs to sit in the rear and arrange troops. There is no need for any martial arts training.
As for disobedience, then find someone who is obedient. My Ming Dynasty has prosperous martial arts and is rich all over the world. The treatment of officials far exceeds that of previous generations. There are many practitioners who want to work for me. Chongzhen said confidently.
Lao Zuo shook his head slightly and said with a smile: "Son, have you usually gone to the Imperial Garden to see the red carps kept there?"
Chongzhen was startled, hesitated for a while and then replied: "I've seen it. It seems that these are the species specially selected by Mr. Le from the aquarium. They are graceful and graceful. Just watching them on the shore makes people feel relaxed and happy. "
Lao Zuo nodded: "Yes, they are protected by Mr. Le, intentionally or unintentionally. Every day, people come to feed them on time. When there is a drought, some people come to transport water from thousands of miles to add water to the pond. When they are sick, there are practitioners who come to treat them. The cold weather is scary. They were frozen, and strong men came to interfere with the celestial phenomena.
Even so, carp will die from time to time in the pond. Do you know how they die? "
Chongzhen was a little surprised and seemed to remember something: "My child once saw
But they like to jump to the shore, and then have special people to look after them, and then throw them back. But there are always times when people are lazy, and sometimes carps are alive and kicking on the shore.
It is also possible that some caretakers did not pick them up and allowed the carps to die naturally, and then sell them to wealthy families. After all, this is the carp that Mr. Le loves to see. Maybe there is something magical about it. Eating it may increase your cultivation level and make you immortal. "
After saying this, Chongzhen looked at his father proudly, obviously very satisfied with his intelligence and reasoning, which most people would never expect.
Lao Zuo took a deep look at him and said with a meaningful smile: "What I mean is that when nothing in this world can threaten the safety of those carp, sometimes, the biggest danger actually comes from themselves.
this is life. You just want to escape, but what you don't know is that if you jump out, you may not be able to survive. "
Chongzhen's smile faltered, and he stared blankly at Father Zhong, who was always friendly and full of goodwill to him, and a chill suddenly rose in his heart.
Only with the support of Zhongfu can he secure the throne, but similarly, if Zhongfu objects, the Ming Dynasty can also change its emperor at any time.
But why, since you have made yourself the supreme and only one, the lord of the world, why don't you give everything you deserve? Is my existence just a mascot?
Sometimes, he even feels that he is not as good as the cat raised by Zhong's father. At least he has dignity! A dignity that countless people please and respect.
No, he is the emperor, so he should not change his face even if the mountain collapses, and he should endure what ordinary people cannot endure.
"Hahaha! What Father Zhong is teaching is that the child is still young and should study more. In the future, Father Zhong will also ask Father Zhong to teach the child more martial arts. In the future, I will be like Father Zhong, riding on horseback in the underworld. Shock the world!"
Chongzhen forced a smile on his face, stretched out his chopsticks, picked out a piece of braised pork from the plate of braised pork that the little yellow cat was lying on the table, and put it into Lao Zuo's bowl.
"Speaking of which, everything in this world is really unpredictable. Twenty years ago, when the world collapsed, who would have thought that every household now has meat to eat and can still eat three full meals a day.
Hey, Father Zhong, I heard that if I had a big bowl of stew, I could exchange for five wives. Is this true? "
Lao Zuo gave him a strange look: "Your Majesty, you may be overthinking it. If it comes to that time, when there is drought and food shortage, people are in dire straits, and even the bark of the trees is eaten away, there will probably be no one to exchange with you."
"Why?" Chongzhen was a little surprised.
"Do you know how many bowls of meat can be stewed by five wives?"
Little yellow cat:......
Chongzhen was stunned for a moment, then looked at Lao Zuo with a complicated expression: "Father Zhong, you are really good at being a good person!"
…
The sun sets.
Prince Zuo finally ended his friendly and cordial conversation with the emperor, and slowly stepped out of the palace with the respectful attitude of the attendants and guards.
The palace walls are tall and solid, dyed golden by the afterglow of the setting sun. On the top of the city wall, soldiers standing guard can be vaguely seen, and their figures look particularly solemn under the sunset.
There are few pedestrians and vehicles on the streets. Some people are still busy on the streets, some are shopping, some are walking, and some are chatting.
My dear, there is more to come after this chapter. Please click on the next page to continue reading. There will be more exciting chapters later!
In the small river not far away, the water is exceptionally clear. There were several small boats moving slowly on the river, and people on the boats were fishing. It was obvious that they had harvested a lot throughout the whole day, and even the fish baskets were nowhere to be seen.
As for Le Ye, he was sleeping soundly on his shoulder, and there were whispers and envious looks from the guards behind him.
"Hey, I really envy Mr. Le. He has the two incredible abilities of "strong stomach" and "falling asleep at any time". It's like being born with billions of wealth. "
"Are you talking about "he eats a lot and is often hungry" and "is listless all day long and never gets enough sleep?" I have both of these functions, but I am not happy! "
Everyone:......
Zuo Zixiong smiled, took a step forward, rose into the air, reached the high altitude, stared attentively, raised his hands, and clenched his fists.
One punch!
"Bang~"
Smashing the void, one person and one cat came to a mysterious place.
This is the source of the world, the origin of all things, and the birthplace of the way of heaven. Ten years ago, he convinced people with his virtue and conquered practitioners from all over the world. After that, his martial arts advanced several steps.
Refining the marrow, refining the acupoints, shattering the vacuum, and finally chasing the stars and the moon are easy.
After that, he followed the guidance in the dark and came to the place where the way of heaven originated. At that time, this place was dark and gloomy, even shabby, with an aura of decay and decadence everywhere. Only a little immortal golden light allowed the way of heaven to last forever.
According to common sense, he should conform to the way of heaven and use his unparalleled cultivation to bear the power of sinking and decay. At that time, he can be like the legendary golden immortal, the world is destroyed but he is immortal.
But he didn't do that. Instead, he wanted to dedicate the world to Le Ye. According to his thinking, since Mr. Le loves to eat so much, then this way of heaven may be more to his liking.
Tiandao:? ? ?
Discuss this matter with Mr. Le, the little yellow cat is also stupid.
Later, Lao Zuo entered the inner world of the little yellow cat and learned what it meant to sit in a well and look at the sky.
One world is one sand, one paradise is one water.
There is actually a vast and boundless world inside Le Ye's body. There are thousands of huge planets like theirs alone, and there are also a dozen or so boundless planets that make him feel like he will be burned just by getting close to them. day.
So scary.
During these ten years, Lao Zuo has been thinking about his own future and the future of the world.
In the end, he finally figured it out. No matter when in this world, there is actually the simplest way to win: embrace your thighs and recognize your father.
This is called not forgetting the original intention.
Now that the place of origin of Heavenly Dao has been almost restored to its original state, letting Master Le eat it won't hurt his stomach. Will he always be Master Le's loyal minister in the future?
hey-hey!
