The next day, in the Zhongji Hall, the civil and military ministers dressed in court uniforms stood solemnly.
Zhou Bai stood on the high stone steps, looking down at the officials. One side was much smaller than the throne, and it was covered with phoenix and bird patterns. It was carried by two guards to a position that was a few steps back from his side.
"Mrs. Hou is here!"
Amidst the slightly high-pitched announcement, Yu Yueyun stepped out from the back hall.
She was wearing an elegant Yunfei brocade dress and a golden phoenix hairpin given by Zhou Bai.
After she bowed slightly to Zhou Bai, she sat upright on her Luan chair, facing the ministers.
Miaomiao Chuchen, who was originally too obvious, was suppressed by the generous and majestic demeanor. As his eyes glanced around, his graceful and noble temperament was fully revealed, and the image of a mother who graced the world emerged spontaneously.
This includes not only Yu Yueyun's own abilities, but also the blessings of luck and destiny that come naturally to her in this position.
Mrs. Hou is in charge of the later dynasty and usually does not come to the former dynasty, but today she must be recognized by the civil and military officials.
Xiahou accepted the congratulations from hundreds of officials, and Mrs. Hou accepted the congratulations from hundreds of officials.
"I will see you, your Majesty."
"I will pay homage to the mother of the country." The wedding is over and the names of the principal ministers have been decided. Of course, all civil and military officials will formally pay homage and do not dare to slack off in their respect.
A loud and loud sound spread from outside the palace. The minor officials who were not qualified to go to the palace, the imperial guards standing by, the Taoist officials in the dark, and even the people of Anbei outside the palace gate all kowtowed in congratulations.
"Congratulations on the wedding of the king and the mother of the country!"
From the voices of hundreds of officials and people, Zhou Bai could hear not only joy, but also peace of mind.
The dragon and phoenix in the country are in power, the yin and yang are harmonious, eliminating bad luck, and promoting the operation of the system at every moment.
Looking angry, the sky above Dingzhou City.
The fish and dragon leaped, followed by the phoenix. As their necks intertwined, boundless luck quickly settled and stabilized.
But it is obvious that the ichthyosaur is very real and agile, and the scales on its body are shining brightly.
But the phoenix is still completely virtual. If it wants to be completely solid, Yue Yun will have to sit in the position of the principal wife for a while.
In other words, now that Xia Kingdom has been upgraded to a principality or a kingdom again, it has attracted more powerful institutional luck and forcibly shortened the time for Yu Yueyun to condense the Phoenix destiny.
It is much easier to change your fate based on the fate of a country's system than to go through life and death yourself and find hidden opportunities.
Official spirit nourishes people. Officials in office and in opposition are completely two states, whether physical or mental.
When the old clan leader Zhou Mingxuan just stepped down from the position of the clan clan leader, he lost his vitality and aged at an alarmingly fast rate.
A large amount of unused luck that had accumulated in corners was mobilized one after another, and a large amount of luck consumed by the title of Marquis and Sacrifice to the Heaven, and the appointment of officials and nobles were restored to a certain extent.
The sea of clouds is vast, the mighty fortune gathers in the capital, dragons and phoenixes travel together, the vitality of the national destiny is greatly strengthened, and waves rise one after another.
The capital had just been moved, and some scattered French nets were visibly intertwined and overlapped to form the red core.
In the palace square, the 13-foot Tianzhu that was at a standstill began to rise slowly again due to the harmony of the dragon and phoenix.
If Yu Yueyun's destiny is that of a phoenix and does not require the support of a hidden dragon, then it may have a greater impact on the national system now.
The limit of the Boguo Tianzhu is nine feet and nine, while the limit of the Houguo Tianzhu is inconclusive. The strength of the princes in the world is very different.
Because the vassal states include two levels of princes, a powerful prince can only be honored as a grand prince after conquering the surrounding countries and gaining recognition from a certain number of princes.
Although Dingguo was also a prince before, its Tianzhu was only seven feet long, which was the same as Dingxi Boguo. It was considered a weak prince in the middle and lower classes.
It is said that the power of some princes has grown rapidly during the conquests and annexations, such as the Qi Kingdom in the east and the Wu Kingdom in the south of the Yangtze River. Now the Tianzhu has exceeded 18 feet and is still rising.
These powerful princes can stand shoulder to shoulder with the kingdom of Daxu Domain.
According to Zhou Bai's estimate of Xia Guo's size, Tianzhu could grow to at least fifteen feet before it would temporarily stagnate.
The prerequisite for Anbei to be renamed Daxia and Zhou Bai to become a prince was to destroy Dingguo, one of the three heroes of Dingzhou.
The land of three counties has swallowed up two counties, and it is still the rich and prosperous core area of Dingzhou, which can be said to be full in one breath.
Nearly two million people have been added to the fertile land of the two counties. The national strength has not increased significantly. It can only be said that it is still being digested, and this digestion cannot be done quickly.
The old officials who need to be eliminated, the people's unfamiliarity and distrust of the new dynasty, the temptation of local powerful people, etc.
These obstacles made it difficult for the legal and official system to be fully rolled out for a while. Many people could not accept the transfer of Xia's imperial power to the countryside and the militia system, thinking that the jurisdiction was too strict.
Therefore, the fortune of the Xia Kingdom did not suddenly rise sharply, and the Tianzhu of the Nation's Fortune could not suppress the entire territory in time.
After the congratulations were completed, Zhou Bai and Yu Yueyun ordered a banquet to express their joy with all the officials.
In addition, there is more than one thing to celebrate and celebrate with the people.
Just after the establishment of the Queen, the people in the country had a lot more expectations. Especially the people in the newly acquired two counties began to stabilize, and the indigestible land and population began to accelerate.
Zhou Bai is planning to use his wedding as the beginning of a big policy of resting with the people.
If there is a general amnesty, all those who commit serious crimes such as rape, robbery, murder, and arson will be reformed through labor instead of serving prison sentences.
Another example was the announcement that after the summer harvest, Dingzhou County and Longfeng County would reduce or exempt young crop fees, and the government would provide high-yielding grain seeds.
At the same time, the cultivation of spiritual rice, spiritual wheat, and Qixue grass was popularized in Bei'an and other places, and the first batch of spiritual seeds were also provided by the government.
Encourage the reclamation of wasteland and farmland, with three-year tax exemption; encourage childbirth, and families with two or more children, regardless of gender, will have their taxes halved; and reward good people who build water conservancy, roads and other facilities that benefit the people, including the rewards of national scholars...
It is ordered that next spring, Enke will be added, and after martial arts becomes popular, martial arts exams will be held within two years, etc.
A series of new policies continued to spread along with the universal celebration of the wedding of kings and princes.
The literate officials in the county government and township offices took the official Dibao and Suihandi Bao and went down to the grassroots to publicize the matter to the people.
As time passed, Xia Kingdom continued to grow in cultivation, and its foundation became increasingly solid.
…
The land of the netherworld, a bright area that exudes a faint light.
There are cities and houses here, there are mountains and forests, acres of fields, and ponds and ditches.
The ghosts and ghosts work together and live in harmony, full of "vitality". Compared with the dim underworld outside, this place is a paradise.
A ghost general with a very faint spiritual light in his soul, wearing tattered armor, stood on a hillside with more than a dozen ghost soldiers and a large group of ghosts with dull expressions.
Thirty miles apart, they looked at the underworld that exuded warm light from afar. There were no ghosts in their eyes filled with envy, including the leading ghost general.
The armor and weapons on this ghost general were all made according to the Daxu standard from a hundred years ago. It looked like he was a general who died in battle during that period.
"Head, what kind of place is that? It looks like a good place for us to settle."
"I didn't expect that in this dark land of the underworld, you can still see light. The ghost people inside seem to be living a happy life, with fields and houses to live in."
"Boss, please take us there quickly, the instinct of the soul and body is yearning for it."
Several ghosts who had recently died and were brought into the team by the ghost generals were shouting.
The questions and requests of the new ghosts were almost the thoughts of most of the ghosts in the team. They all looked at the ghost general with hope.
The ghost general glanced at these new ghosts and knew that they were all potential ghost soldiers, so he had a good attitude and told them what he knew.
"That is a blessed land that can only be found in the underworld. I accidentally entered a scattered blessed land from the previous dynasty. Only then did I nourish my soul. I have the confidence to wander outside for many years and can take you with me."
"The blessed land in front of you is very complete and can easily accommodate tens of thousands of ghosts. If you can live there, you won't have to worry about your longevity for hundreds of years, and you won't have to worry about encountering various dangers in the underworld at any time."
A new ghost heard the meaning of the ghost general's words and immediately said uneasily: "You mean, we can't get in?"
The ghost general nodded and sighed: "Although I just arrived here, I don't know what other aristocratic families have arisen in Dingzhou, but under normal circumstances, the Lord of the Blessed Land will only recruit ghosts who know their roots."
"But this blessed land is obviously not new and is intact, so why can we still see it from such a distance?"
As he spoke, he felt a little strange. At the same time, the aura in his soul dimmed, and he observed the blessed land more carefully.
It covers an area of five miles, and there are organized Yin soldiers inside. No, there are official offices and palaces in the city.
Could it be a blessed land derived from a certain founding family?
It's not Longting, it also has a system.
The ghost has been wandering in the underworld for decades, and there is still spiritual light in the body to protect him. It is obvious that he was at least a serious general during his lifetime, and he had some secret insights.
Daxu is splitting or has perished. This blessed land is the blessed land of the Xin Dynasty clan. It has a large capacity at the moment, so it may not be able to recruit foreign ghosts!
After coming to a conclusion, the ghost general immediately ordered: "Everyone march to the blessed land and seek opportunities to enter it!"
"Remember, don't act rashly and offend the owner of the blessed land."
So a group of ghosts, led by this knowledgeable ghost general, began to move towards the blessed place.
After walking a few miles, they began to speed up, and they did not hesitate to expend their Yin Qi and soul power.
Just because the ghost general discovered that there are many people who are on the same journey, and they are "heroes among ghosts" who are as knowledgeable as him.
Some big ghosts who have been nearby for a long time actually know the situation of this blessed land better than the ghost generals, and they also understand better why the blessed land that had been hidden before has now reappeared.
"Hurry up, this is the Zhou Clan's blessed land, and it is a sign that it will be upgraded again. There is great hope."
"I wasn't recruited last time, so I will definitely live in it this time!"
In the distance, streaks of yin black smoke roared in. Any one of them was stronger than the previous ghost generals and knew more inside information.
An old ghost roared in a low voice: "My life is about to run out, and I can't find reincarnation. I just want to go in and survive."
However, soon a fellow traveler wiped out his hopes: "Old ghost, you are of no value, Will Willingbury recruit you?"
"I have brought an elite group of ghost soldiers, and I know the location of the three aristocratic places. Willingbo will definitely be able to use them in the future."
"I hope we can all take shelter in the blessed land. The underworld is becoming more and more dangerous. The spiritual energy of the Yang world has revived, and the underworld has undergone unprecedented changes."
"Yes, I don't know where the news has spread, saying that the larger the area controlled by the ghost king, the more will of the underworld will be added to it. Now I heard that Longting has taken action."
"There are also rumors from the ghosts and gods of the Styx that whoever can re-establish the underworld and control the underworld can summon the six paths of reincarnation..."
Just as these big ghosts were exchanging the secrets they heard from all over the underworld, the faint white light of the Zhou Clan's blessed land in front of them suddenly brightened.
Seeing that the area of the blessed land suddenly expanded from a radius of five miles to a radius of ten miles, a large amount of desolate land appeared in the blessed land, which could protect the ghosts.
Before many ghosts secretly rejoiced, feeling that there were more opportunities, a golden edict rushed out from deeper in the underworld.
The lavender royal aura emerged above the edict, and a cold and torrential sound resounded through the nearby underworld. The heavy pressure made all ghosts kneel down and could only listen quietly.
"This summer, the country has been established, its destiny is stable, and it is getting stronger and stronger. I will never forget my ancestors... Wei Lingbo values his Mingde, and the emperor and heaven obey him... I hereby postulate the title of Wei Linghou, to express my kindness to my relatives, and to serve the public forever. Zhenmo."
After reading this paragraph, it has actually been explained that the reason for the promotion of the Blessed Land is that the Xiahou in the Yang Dynasty felt that the national power had increased and his luck was stable, so he could pursue the title of ancestor.
But the loud sound of reciting the edict did not stop, but became louder and louder.
"Since the beginning of the world, Shen Nong has lived there, Xia Qi and Min Xuan have made great contributions in the past, and their family and country have been glorious. I have only visited the past, and I will never forget it."
"In ancient times, Daxia was the only one who first had the principles of chemistry in the world, and then inherited the great tradition of the holy system. Over the years, it has been passed down and praised."
"I hope that the foundation of ancient Xia will be blessed this summer, and the inheritance of luck will continue... In the name of Xiahou, I call upon the sleeping soldiers to fight for Daxia!"
"The soul is back, the soul is back..."
In the calls for the soul to return, the indifferent tones became long and passionate, as if it could arouse the throbbing in the depths of the soul. Countless ghosts kneeling in the underworld were eager to take orders immediately and fight for the Xia Kingdom.
However, Zhou Bai did not intend to recruit these ghosts when he spent his luck on the underworld to issue an edict.
I don't know how much time passed, but the edict suspended in the sky became increasingly dim. Just when Wei Linghou, Zhou Bai's father in the blessed land, was about to accept the reality with disappointment.
The underworld around the blessed land began to disappear, and the wind was strong. Under the Yang world was the underworld, so what was under the underworld?
It is the Dragon Court, the Yin Court, and the blessed land forgotten by history, it is the countless fragments of the underworld, and it is the source of the Styx that runs through the underworld...
Zhou Bai in the Yangshi Zong Temple seemed to sense that things were not going well in the underworld, and immediately lit a stick of incense again.
During the third worship, three strands of the purest latent dragon purple energy have been stirred up and mixed into the incense.
The misty fragrance reaches straight to the Nine Netherland. The dim edict regains its strength. Countless golden words shine through the silk and rush into the virtual land of the underworld.
The next moment, the sound of gold and iron horses was heard, and groups of sleeping ancient Xia Yin soldiers were awakened. They followed the guidance of Xiahou's edict and entered the blessed land.
Immediately after the Yin soldiers, a large number of broken luck foundations surged up and clung to the blessed land.
"The Great Xia Yinting stands!"
As the edict dimmed and disintegrated, an edict sounded. From then on, this blessed land was no longer just the blessed land of the Zhou clan, but also the location of the Yin Court of Daxia.
