Chapter 144: Banquet (I) 5,000 Votes Plus Change

As soon as the Wudu Hanzhong fell, the dragon sword tended to stabilize, and the army returned victorious.

Returning triumphantly and returning to the city in triumph is a celebration.

"Well, it's time to clean up. Wang Hongyi listened to Su'er speak, holding a pen and drawing on the paper, and stopped when he heard this, and nodded his head: "Last time, Lone asked you to survey temples around the world, how did you do?"

Su Er closed the door, cleared the table again, and laid out a map, Wang Hongyi stepped forward and looked at the map quietly.

Su Er said: "My lord, the seventeen counties of Shu have a total of seven hundred and sixty-one counties, and the first batch of primary elections has been determined, and there are still some that have not been determined. ”

Wang Hongyi said: "The matter of the gods, I still have this charter. ”

"Cultivating it in the body, its virtue is true, cultivating it at home, its virtue is surplus, cultivating it in the township, its virtue is long, cultivating it in the state, its virtue is abundant, cultivating it in the world, its virtue is Pu - the god of the family, the god of the country, the god of the state, the god of the country, and so on. ”

"The principle is still that the righteous worship is blessed, and the silver ritual is not blessed, but there must be room for worship, that is, the righteous god should be worshipped, and no disturbance is allowed, if it is a silver ritual, let it reduce the sacrifice, if the cult instigates the foolish people, gathers the crowd to plot, not only to demolish the temple, but also to arrest and investigate, in order to suppress the public. Wang Hongyi said.

"Yes!!" Su'er replied dryly.

Wang Hongyi bowed his head and asked again: "Is the banquet set up outside?"

"Yes, it's all placed, there are high-ranking officials, and their wives will attend, and some big clans in the city will also have principals attending. Su'er said.

Speaking of which, I have to remind people of Wang Hongyi's poor harem, although Wang Hongyi has been on the throne, there are few women, and there are not a few big families in Shuzhong who are looking forward to it, and this time it even has the meaning of exploring the wind.

Wang Hongyi smiled and said, "Yes, the time is almost up, I'll go now." ”

I saw a hundred tables of banquets in the hall, busy people coming and going in the hall, and the banquet officially began at three o'clock.

The palace people dressed in beautiful costumes rushed in and lit the palace lamps in the hall, dazzling and dazzling, making the hall as bright as day in an instant.

In the distance, there were constant sound of broken footsteps, and the entire hall fell silent.

The civil and military officials are in place, the left is the civil official, the right is the military general, and behind the hundred officials, there are the accompanying female dependents, who all sit together in a single door and do not sit at the same table with the men.

In the vicinity of the civil officials, there are some major clans in the city, most of whom sit around the Song and Wang clans.

At the top of the steps, is the seat of the harem concubine, on the left is the position of the princess, and above is the seat of the prince and the position of the concubine.

At this time, everyone has arrived, just waiting for the arrival of these people.

"Big brother, Guogong should have arrived, right?" The Song family brothers who were sitting next to each other sat on the adjacent steps, without the flattery of the group of people just now, Song Heng at this time was much more comfortable, leaned slightly sideways, and whispered beside the elder brother: "Brother, after the banquet, you and I will go to the other courtyard to live for a few days." ”

Song Han glanced at him, although there were several big families at this banquet, but he knew that the liquidation of these clans was not far away, and the second brother was afraid that he would be entangled with these families who were not far from the unlucky ones.

But this is exactly what he wants, so he nodded: "It's okay!"

Song Heng exhaled, glanced at the few families sitting together without a trace, and sighed secretly.

The small actions of these families behind their backs are not ignorant, but they deserve to be unlucky, although they are embarrassed about their future fate, Song Heng will not take the initiative to find a bad head.

Hiding for a while, between the big clans of Shudi, it is impossible to have no friendship, and there are even some distant relatives, but everything has a relative, for these families, the result is already doomed, and whoever dares to intercede at this time is implicated in bad luck.

Who told them that they had a different heart before, and they had a connection with Qin Jing and even the distant King of Wu?

Thinking of this, Song Heng didn't think much about it, sat down, and waited for the arrival of the Duke of Shu.

Three silent whips opened, and Song Xinyou, who appeared in full costume, accompanied Wang Hongyi to arrive, followed by Zhao Wan and Su'er, who were also dressed up, and hundreds of civil and military officials knelt down to greet them.

The voices of hundreds of people bowed to the temple.

At this time, Wang Hongyi was wearing a seven-chapter crown dress and a seven-chapter crown on his head, his young face was calm and calm, his eyes were a little painted, his face was crowned with jade, and the corners of his mouth were smiling.

Wang Hongyi entered the main hall, only to see the colorful silk canopy in the hall, the palace lamps decorated, and there was already a faint imperial style.

Wang Hongyi smiled and helped him with his hand: "Let's all get up, today is a wedding banquet, and these etiquettes are all waived." ”

He also commanded, "Don't be polite, just feast!"

In fact, according to the rules, Wang Hongyi came earlier, but now although Wang Hongyi is said to be the prince of the country, he is actually the lord of Shu, as if he is the emperor's family, who dares to say more about it.

Wang Hongyi took the throne, glanced at the people in the hall with a smile, swept over several contemporary patriarchs of the family, and then sat on his knees.

This is the lord of the seventeen counties of Shu, Song Xinyou and the second daughter, who walked to their place and sat down.

"Thank you, lord!" everyone stood up and sat down in their seats.

"Today Lone is very happy, of course, I believe that everyone here is also happy, the dragon sword that has plagued Shu for many years has finally all surrendered, from now on they are all the people of Shu, the unification of Shu is a great thing, Lone put this banquet, is to celebrate this event, look at the heavens, Shu is prosperous, the people are happy!"

"The lord is wise, and the ministers also hope that Shu can prosper and the people live and work in peace and contentment!"

Wang Hongyi waited for them to finish speaking, and then continued to speak: "This time can successfully recover the dragon sword, the soldiers who went out to fight, the merit is indispensable, in addition to the generals here, there are also a group of soldiers have rushed to Chengdu, they have performed well in these battles, all of them are brave and good at fighting, they are the pillars of my country, although the grade is not enough to enter the palace, but they can make an exception!

Seeing this, the chamberlain on the side went out to give orders.

All the people in the hall were stunned and whispered.

"Big brother, this move is quite innovative...... What do you think?" Song Heng asked in a low voice.

Song Han looked at his daughter on the steps from afar, and after glancing at her, he withdrew his gaze.

"Shu Guogong's move is very wise, from now on, Shu all knows, Shu Guogong appoints people on the basis of merit, heroes regardless of their origins, meritorious rewards, and punishments for mistakes. ”

For what the eldest brother said, Song Heng thought so.

In a blink of an eye, I saw a few young people from the family not far away, and after showing dissatisfaction, they quieted down again.

These fools, really think they are from their own families, how expensive are they?

When the war is in chaos, it provokes those in power, no matter how many branches you have, it is only a matter of time before you are wiped out.

Shaking his head secretly, Song Heng made up his mind more and more, to have less contact with these families, and definitely not to give the Song family this trouble until the situation calmed down.

After a while, a group of soldiers dressed in military uniforms went to the palace.

These soldiers are not very old, and their heroic posture makes some people nod secretly.

attracted attention, not only the civil and military officials in the palace, but also some of the female dependents who came with their husbands.

Most of them came this time with the intention of establishing a good relationship with their female relatives and contacting the inner relatives of their husband's colleagues.

There is an unmarried daughter at home, and she is secretly looking for a target.

The family wants to climb the country, and they are also thinking about whether there is this possibility, in short, the men in front have officialdom entertainment, and the women in the back are also gearing up.

As soon as this group of young captains entered the hall, they also attracted the attention of these female dependents.

These people's official positions are generally not high, most of them are nine or eight grades, and some of them don't even have grades, but since they can enter the palace, it means that they have Wang Hongyi's attention, and as long as they are lucky in the future, they may not have a bright future.

In this troubled world, several families have been wiped out or hit for various reasons, which makes many young girls no longer favor marrying the family, in case something happens to the other party for some reason, they will also be implicated, or the rising star who is simple and innocent, and has outstanding ability and is trusted by Wang Hongyi makes them more valued.

Of course, in the fight for the world, there are many deaths, and the status of these young people is too low, and it is impossible for the descendants to marry them, if it is a side branch girl, but it is okay, after all, in the troubled times, it is impossible to be absolutely safe, and the gamble is fate, and if you lose, you are just a concubine, and if you win, maybe it is an aid.

Wang Hongyi and Song Xinyou above saw this, but they smiled relatively, and they were optimistic.

"Tell the order. Wang Hongyi gestured to the attendant on the side.

"No. The chamberlain bowed respectfully to him and began to read the order.

In fact, the content was nothing more than a reward for gold, silver, and cloth to these people in the palace, and they were promoted to official positions, and seats were given for them to participate in the banquet.

Wang Hongyi then rewarded the generals and officials, and the palace was overjoyed for a while.

"But are you impatient?" Wang Hongyi turned around with a smile and asked the people around him in a low voice.

"The concubine is still in good health, but she just doesn't understand this. Song Xinyou said softly.

Wang Hongyi wanted to laugh a little, but he didn't understand, but he still said thoughtfully: "Then let's start." ”

The people in the inner palace on the side understood and conveyed this meaning to the people outside.

As a soft music sounded, a group of dancers stepped in from the outside and danced to the music.

The dancers in the hall are carefully selected, with beautiful appearances, good dancing postures, and very pleasant music.

At the beginning, everyone in the hall was still very restrained, but later, everyone gradually became drunk, and they were already a little let go. Looking at the people below pushing cups and changing lamps, and they were peaceful, Wang Hongyi, who was seated, looked at a few figures sitting in the corner.

"Husband. It wasn't until a call came from the side that he withdrew his gaze and turned his head.

Song Xinyou whispered: "Today is the time to be happy......

Needless to say, Wang Hongyi already understood.

Song Xinyou saw him spread his eyebrows, smiled and didn't say anything more, and it was late at night that the banquet dispersed.

Turning back to the harem with the support of the palace people, Song Xinyou glanced back at the messy hall, knowing that after the unification of Shuzhong, it was necessary to clean it up.

But it's not for her to be involved.
