Three days after that battle, the army was still stationed in the camp, and Shi Ye never went to see the king of Yue, but he was not humiliated, but the attitude towards the prince with aristocratic courtesy was absolutely none.

After the defeat of the Yue people that day, the cavalry followed and raided the Yue camp seven miles away from the battlefield, captured some Yue people stationed in the camp, and captured a large number of booty carried by the nobles with the army.

These trophies must be registered, and private possession is strictly prohibited, and no one dares to touch them, and there is no need to set an example.

Among these trophies, there are many valuable things, but at this time, it is the sword of Yue Wang Peng that is the most valuable.

The sword body is three feet, and the two sides of the sword grid are inlaid with glass, and the words "Yue Wang Peng's own sword" are written on it.

The inlaid glass is blue, which is the extremely expensive potassium and calcium glass in Zhuxia, and the craftsmen of the Yue Kingdom can already fire the potassium and calcium glass, but the quantity is very small and is not secret.

The body of the Goujian sword of the Yue Kingdom is also inlaid with glass, and the style of the self-used sword of Yue Wang Peng is similar to that of the Goujian sword, which is extremely beautiful, and the potassium and calcium glass inlaid on the copper sword makes the value of this sword simply overwhelming.

Shi looked at the captured loot, but did not care about the priceless sword captured by King Shuqing, but stared at a crystal vessel in a daze, at this time the crystal is either called Shui Yu or Yuying.

Most people use pearls and jade as coins, and they are very fond of jade and crystal.

Several people in charge of registration couldn't help but be curious when they saw Shi staring at a crystal vessel that was polished very smooth and transparent.

They know that such a person, or most of the high-level members of the Mo family, rarely regard pearls and jade as treasures, and after death, they are buried thinly, and they want to use sparingly, and the theory of the Mo family is the set of accumulation investment and development, and it is said that Shi has seen a lot of amazing things when he studied with the two masters, so he can't help but feel strange when he sees Shi staring at the crystal.

Playing with the very delicate crystal vessel, he couldn't help but think of the crystal cup of the anti-heaven cultural relics unearthed in the land of Wu Yue in the later generations, thought for a while, and said to the person in charge of registration next to him: "You remember, someone will hold this, and I will ask Yue Wang Peng something." ”

The guards around him went over to pick up the crystal vessel, stepped forward and signed his name on the registration form, and asked someone to inform him, and called someone to accompany him to see Yue Wang Peng.

At this time, Pei County had not yet given a resolution, so he could not negotiate with Yue Wang Fei alone, because he had to abide by the resolution of the Mo family's high-level collective discussion as the bottom line before he could talk.

No one thought that they could catch Yue Wang Fei before, and it was even difficult to say whether this battle could be a war of annihilation, so it was not discussed before.

In the past few years, he has learned some elegant language and Yayin from many aristocratic ink scholars, and he was afraid that Yue Wang Phong would not communicate well with him, so he also called a Mo man who was born in Yuedi.

After the group entered the room where Yue Wang Fei was being held, the somewhat haggard Yue Wang Fei stared at Shi and asked, "Are you Shi?" The commander of this battle of the Mo family? ”

Shi nodded, and found that Yue Wang Fei was only haggard, and there was no such thing as a white head overnight. At this time, in the war, except for the Korean who killed Zheng Bo, there were few things that directly killed the opponent's monarch, and Yue Wang Fei was not worried that the Mo family would kill him, but was worried about the domestic situation.

Yue Wang Fei looked at Shi and snorted: "You are only the son of a shoemaker, and the Mo family is still equal, you can be the commander, which shows that the Mo family has no tradition and does not pay attention to etiquette." The noble are always noble, the cheap are always cheap, your Mo family wants the world to be equal? How is this possible? ”

"In the past, the Jin people cast the punishment tripod, and Zhong Ni said: The husband and the Jin country will abide by the law of Uncle Tang, and the people will be kept by the people, and the doctor will keep it in order, and the people will be able to respect their nobility, and they will be able to keep their business. The noble and the lowly are not ashamed, and the so-called degree is also. Duke Wen is the official who is the official of the rank, and the law of the Lu, and thinks that he is the leader of the alliance. Now abandon is the degree, but for the punishment of the Ding, the people are in the Ding, why is it noble? What kind of business do you keep? How can it be a country if there is no disorder? ”

"Your Mo family uses the law of all people, and what do you say that there is no eternal noble, no eternal and cheap, so that everyone in the world is a minister of heaven, I will ask you......"

"If all people are equal, if there is law, and the noble and the lowly are disorderly, how can it be a country?"

"Your Mo family keeps saying that you want to benefit the world, but all this you are doing is destroying the world, harming the world, and causing chaos in the world! There is no noble and low, what is the world? ”

"I saw a woman again in the camp, doing that Ji Si Chen's thing, the Mo family may not be able to last long."

He was about to say a few words, but he found Shi staring at him with a look he had never seen before, as if he were looking at a fool.

Fei Gui is the king of Yue, and he has grown up in a polite environment all his life, where have you seen such eyes?

Shi didn't bother to bother with Yue Wang Fei talking these nonsense here, holding the crystal and asking, "This thing turned out to be owned by you?" ”

The tone was unceremonious, without the slightest hint of respect for his bloodline.

Yue Wang Phong saw that it was a jade utensil, and said with a smile: "You are not as far away as Mo Zhai." At that time, the first king hired Mo Zhai with a fief of 500 miles, but Mo Zhai refused to accept it, and took righteousness as a treasure. Can't imagine that there are also people in the Mo family who take jade as a treasure? ”

Shi shook his head and said: "Jade has been buried in the ground for thousands of years, and no one's jade is just a stone." In the past, Bian and Yu Jingshan wept jade, and later King Wen of Chu sent jade craftsmen to dissect Pu, and Fang De and his family. The Mohists do not regard pearls and jade as treasures, but they regard the craftsmanship of those jade cutters as treasures. ”

"I just want to ask, do you have these jade craftsmen in Langya? Where did this come from? ”

What is important is that the surface of this crystal vessel is extremely smooth, it is obvious that it has been processed, but the traces of processing are not visible to the naked eye, smooth and transparent, and it looks like a piece of glass without bubbles and variegation.

Those who can grind crystal must be able to grind glass. He could try to fire glass, or he could use crystal directly, but the technique of polishing crystal was not something he could master. Glass, on the other hand, can be regarded as the mother of modern science, and it is the easiest thing to intuitively break the mystery of heaven and earth.

However, after listening to the words of Yue Wang, he said with a disdainful face: "In the past, after the Xuzhou Alliance, the Son of Heaven sent the first king Goujian to be the uncle of Yue, and Yue is no longer a barbarian, doing the politics of China and rejuvenating China...... At this time, the Son of Heaven was still there, and Zhou Li was the rule. You are a common people, and I don't know how to talk to you when I see that the king does not worship. ”

Shi Hehe smiled, knowing that Yue Wang Fei was looking for trouble, or trying to test what kind of attitude the Mo family had towards him.

He laughed a few times and said, "I'm only afraid of you, the king of Yue, this is the end of it." Your father Zhu Gou killed his father and ascended to the throne, and the world knows it. Now that you have been captured and the army of gentlemen has been destroyed by the righteous teacher, do you have no sons and brothers? Your son and brother, won't you ascend to the throne on the grounds of 'despering with the hope of the Mo family'? ”

Yue Wang Peng's face changed, Shi's words were what he had been most worried about, and Shi was more "insidious" than he thought, and used a reason of "despairing the hope of the Mo family", if it was spread, it was giving his sons and brothers a justifiable reason to ascend to the throne.

When the time comes, for the sake of the interests of the Yue Kingdom, there is no better reason to change the monarch and prevent the Mo family from blackmailing the life of the king to ask too much.

Yue Wang Peng couldn't help but ask, "What do you Mo family want?" ”

Shi spread his hands and said: "Zi Mo Ziyan said that everyone in the world is the minister of the Emperor of Heaven, regardless of the old and the young, all of them are equal. So, I can make a deal with you as an equal. I'll ask you to answer, and then you can ask me, and I'll answer again. What do you think? ”

Sitting casually aside, Yue Wang Fei sighed and said helplessly: "That jade artifact is the thing of the partridge's palace when the first king destroyed Tan. ”

Shi was sure that he had heard the name of a bird, and his face showed a look of doubt, and a noble-born ink artist who followed him hurriedly explained: "That is the name of the last Tanzi. ”

Shiqi said: "Bird name? ”

The ink man nodded and said, "Tan Guo is the queen of Shao Hao. Shaohao took the phoenix bird as his clan, and later became the emperor, all of whom were named after birds as officials. Future generations, also named after the bird. ”

He didn't explain much, in fact, there was an allusion involved.

In later generations, Han Yu did "The Teacher Said", and once said that the saint is an impermanent teacher. Confucius taught Tanzi, Chang Hong, Shi Xiang, and Lao Dan.

Tan Zi was the monarch of Tan State at that time, the viscount, and he was after Shao Hao.

At that time, at a banquet, someone asked Tanzi, why did your ancestor Shaohao make the names of the six senses all bird names?

This is like the evolution of Zhu Rong, who was originally an official position, and finally became the god of fire, which is a very complicated change. Since ancient times, many cultures have gradually lost and evolved.

Tan Zi told that in the past, the Yellow Emperor used clouds to remember things, so his officials were named after clouds; Emperor Yan used fire to remember things, so all his officials were named after fire; Gonggong's chronicles are based on water, and his hundred officials are named after water; Taihao's family remembered with dragons, and his hundred officials were named after dragons.

At the time of the Yellow Emperor, the six departments already had a prototype, but they were not in the names of households, officials, soldiers, rituals, criminals, workers, or Situ, Sima, and Sikou. The departments are named after yellow clouds, black clouds, green clouds, white clouds, etc.

When it came to Shaohao, Shaohao respected the phoenix bird, and it was also in the form of a tribal alliance, so he used the different bird emblems of various tribes as the official name.

For example, swallows, shrikes, pheasants, pigeons, etc., in fact, they are equivalent to the official positions of Situ Sima and so on in the Zhou period, and their responsibilities have not changed, but their names have changed.

The monarchs of the past dynasties were also named after birds, and the partridge was the name of the last monarch when the Tan Kingdom was wiped out.

At that time, the young Confucius heard about this and said with emotion: "The Son of Heaven lost his official position, and he learned in Siyi", thinking that some knowledge could only be found in Siyi, which was actually a kind of "official and academic monopoly of knowledge" monopoly situation - these learnings were originally only learned by the Son of Heaven and official schools, but Confucius was able to ask for advice from Siyi, and it was even far better than the content of the monopoly of official learning.

Tan Guo is one of the nine countries that the Mo family wants to use the name of "recovering the country" to act on its behalf this time, and the Mo family explained slightly, and Shi was also relieved.

The destruction of the Tan Kingdom was only twenty or thirty years ago, and those craftsmen have not died, and some techniques have not been lost.

He asked again: "Are these craftsmen who can carve jade Ying in Langya?" ”

Yue Wang Phong nodded and said, "Hidden in the Gongguan, it is not passed on." ”

Shixin is even more happy, and his heart says that it seems that the transaction with Yue Wang Fei has to be added, these craftsmen will be priceless treasures in the future, with the principles they know, combined with the skills of these craftsmen, many things can be solved.

With craftsmen who have the skills to polish crystals, and people who know what can be done by polishing crystals, things that would have been discovered "accidentally" for thousands of years of evolution could have appeared much earlier.

Yue Wang Fei saw that Shishi's face showed joy, and he said in his heart: "Could it be that this person likes Yuying?" ”

But when he thought in his heart, he did not ask, but asked, "Since I have answered your two questions, I also need to ask you two questions." ”

"What are you Mo family going to do to me? And how will I be treated with my country? ”

Shi said solemnly: "The law of the ink man, all major events must gather the opinions of the people and discuss, and they will be determined to be synonymous, and things can be done." Before that, I didn't know what I would do to you, and I didn't know what I would do to Yue Guo. ”

After that, he reflexively left, leaving only Yue Wang Peng, who was resentful and thought that he was suitable for a "villain".
