Dali Dynasty·April City·Chengze Palace

Chengze Palace, as the imperial palace of the Dali Dynasty, was predecessored by the imperial palace of the Dawei Kingdom.

From the most powerful Dawei during the ten countries' hegemony, it has continued to the Dali, which is now the Central Plains. As the representative of the royal face, the Chengze Palace, has been continuously expanded after hundreds of years of renovation and continuous expansion. Its momentum can naturally be imagined.

Not to mention anything else, just in terms of the area, the area of ​​the Chengze Palace in Dali is almost the same as the size of the capital of Xijing, Dagan!

Of course, even this does not fully represent the huge scale of Chengze Palace. After all, the palaces of the Daxing Dynasty are nearly one-half of the size.

To be honest, I can only say that the big work is too poor, the country is too small, and as for the palace... let alone the palace.

Therefore, strictly speaking, this cannot be simply described as "gong".

The entire Chengze Palace can be called a city in the city and a country in the country!

There are not only inner palace and outer palaces inside, but also inner palace - the forbidden palace!

As the name suggests, this Forbidden Palace is actually the residence of the supreme ruler of the Dali Dynasty - the Holy Emperor of the Heavenly Qi and his three thousand concubines.

In addition, the number of slaves and eunuchs raised in the forbidden palace is as many as tens of thousands!

So many people live, live, live and travel in this Forbidden Palace, so we can imagine that this Forbidden Palace covers a large area.

But such a huge royal forbidden palace is only a small part of the Chengze Palace.

The inner palace outside the Forbidden Palace is a place where the imperial guards are stationed and trained, as well as various craftsmen, iron wood workshops, common clothes workshops, jewelry workshops, etc., which are service-oriented.

Here, we are responsible for the guard responsibilities of the entire Forbidden Palace and the inner palace, and must meet all the needs of the Forbidden Palace and the inner palace.

It is no exaggeration to say that if this forbidden palace and inner palace are unfortunately besieged by the army, it can withstand at least two to three months, and persist until reinforcements arrive, and those living inside can still have food and clothing!

As for the outer palace outside the inner palace, it is also called the outer court, and the outer court is the political center and administrative center of the entire Dali!

The most important court meetings, sacrifices to the sky, the six official residences, central documents, etc., are all here!

Therefore, under the continuous repair and expansion of generations of monarchs, the Chengze Palace of the Dali Dynasty almost gathers the highest architectural skills of the entire Central Plains civilization, and has become a masterpiece representing the Central Plains culture!

When the barbarians of all generations were summoned to this place, they were all shocked and shocked. They couldn't help but feel weak in their knees and knelt in front of the hall!

Of course, it is extremely inconvenient to travel to a royal palace of such a magnificent size.

It is so big that it is even big that it must be driven by a horse!

During the morning court every day, all civil and military officials must sit in sedan chairs and go to the palace to attend court. Otherwise, if there is no carriage as a means of transportation, just walking to the court with manpower, older officials and capable officials may fall on the way to attend court.

But even so, during the daily meeting, the rows of seemingly endless steps in front of Fengtian Hall, the towering temple, are enough to make anyone over 60 years old doubt their lives.

Therefore, if you want to be an official in the Dali Center, you still need to have an extremely tough body.

However, for the civil and military officials of Dali, what is a little lucky in recent years is that because the Holy Emperor of Heaven is old, sick and weak, and his physical strength is insufficient, the daily meetings in previous years have been often postponed and cancelled.

From the first two-day meeting, it gradually evolved to the later three-day meeting, or even four-day meeting. Until now, it is hard to have a court meeting in almost seven days!

Almost all the Dali government affairs were controlled by the cabinet composed of important officials of the country!

As the prime minister of Dali, Han Yu was naturally ranked first in the cabinet and was the chief minister of the cabinet. He was a high-ranking minister and reached the peak that Dali ministers could reach!

...

Today, the grand and quiet Chengze Palace has not held a court meeting.

Logically speaking, the cabinet officials, officials from the six ministries and other central ministers should go to their respective residences to deal with today's government affairs as usual.

But at this moment, a four-horse official car unexpectedly came to the gate of the inner palace...

"Stop! Who is coming?!"

The official car driven by four horses slowly stopped in front of me. Just now, a guard stepped forward to interrogate, but instantly saw a golden token appearing in front of him!

"this?!"

With just a glance, the guard was shocked and immediately fell to the ground and knelt down, exclaiming in surprise!

"The villain has no eyes and has no intention to collide with the adults! I hope he will forgive his sins!"

The car was silent, as if it was disdainful, but at the moment when the palace gate slowly opened, it rumbled into it.

"Did you see clearly? But the Apocalypse Holy Order?!"

Looking at the driver's car going further and further away, the guards dared to discuss in a low voice.

"Not bad! That's the Holy Order of the Apocalypse!"

The guard just now dared to stand up slowly until now, but he watched the driver's car go further and further away. The clear and golden light of the words "Apocalypse" were still flashing in his mind!

However, he never thought that he would be fortunate to meet such a legendary Saint Royal Order in his lifetime!

It should be noted that this Heavenly Qi Holy Order was only a special order issued by the Holy Emperor who rewarded those important officials who made great contributions to the Dali Dynasty when the founding of the Dali Kingdom!

Holding this personal order is like facing the Holy Emperor!

In addition, what is more important is that this Apocalypse Holy Order can not only hold orders to the Apocalypse Holy Emperor at any time, but also make any requests to the Apocalypse Holy Emperor at will!

Generally speaking, most of the Holy Emperor would agree to the requests made by such important officials in the founding country at their discretion, and even let their descendants not pass the selection system of Ju Maocai, but they could also be personally decided by the Holy Emperor Jinkou and go straight to the center!

In addition, this Heavenly Revelation Holy Order can forgive all serious sins except for treason, and can protect future generations from danger for the rest of their lives!

Moreover, since the founding of the country, no one has ever received such an honor from the Apocalypse Holy Order, nor has it appeared for a long time, and almost has become a legendary mysterious thing in the Dali Kingdom.

After all, such a treasure is too important for clan inheritance!

If it is not a last resort, who would be willing to waste such a life-saving sacred object given by the Holy Emperor?

But today, these little guards guarding the palace were fortunate to see such legendary holy objects...

First appearance!!

...

Chengze Palace·Huangji Palace

The carriage passed the pass continuously, drove all the way from the inner palace to the Forbidden Palace, and then slowly stopped from the Forbidden Palace to the Huangji Palace where the Holy Emperor of Heaven was handling government affairs.

"Cough cough cough cough cough..."

Han Yu, the prime minister of Dali, who looked suddenly old, immediately got off the car with the help of his servants. Although his steps were a little slow, his figure was still upright.

In recent days, his condition has begun to deteriorate suddenly.

Han Yu understood that his deadline was approaching, but he did not want to die easily. Instead, he had to settle all the funeral before he died!

Therefore, today he specially followed the Holy Order of the Apocalypse and came to meet the Holy Emperor of the Apocalypse in order to complete the last thing in his life, but it is also extremely important!

"Sir, Your Majesty is not in the Huangji Palace today..."

However, when he forced himself to come to the hall, he learned from the insurgent standing at the door that His Majesty was not in the Huangji Hall today.

"……All right."

Han Yu was silent for a long time, then sighed, and had to turn around and return to the sedan chair, dragging a slightly old voice, and told the coachman.

"Go to Ziwei Palace..."

"Here."

The coachman immediately said no, slowly drove the official car and headed straight for Weiyang.

This Ziwei Palace is the place where the Holy Emperor Tianqi lives and rests. Han Yu was unwilling to come here to report such a major event to His Majesty.

But in recent years, His Majesty has become increasingly alienated from government affairs and does not care about court affairs.

Instead, he formed a cabinet and handed over all the major affairs of governing the country to a group of important officials and cabinet officials.

The sudden power of the cabinet made the party disputes in the court more intense. Fortunately, his founding veteran was in charge of the overall situation as the prime minister. This did not cause any unrest in the Dali Temple.

On the contrary, Dali, which occupied the three rich states of the Central Plains, became more and more prosperous than the former Great Wei Kingdom.

Therefore, the government and the public generally recognized that the delegation of power by the Holy Emperor of Heaven and Qi was actually a great wisdom in governing the country!

But only Han Yu knew in his heart that behind the prosperity of Dali, there were many hidden dangers such as party conquests, eunuchs in power, people who beat horses and horses to take over, and those who work hard to build the country were excluded!

Thinking about the huge Dali Dynasty, there is no one suitable person who can be competent for the position of prime minister!

How could this make him sleep in peace?

Therefore, he was always worried about the affairs behind him. If he really died once, His Majesty would be addicted to pleasure and ignore the government affairs, allowing treacherous ministers and eunuchs to control the government affairs and attack each other!

Then, the country that the Dali Dynasty has worked hard to conquer, not to mention the power of unification and annexation, is afraid that even self-protection will be difficult in such a chaotic world!

Under such circumstances, Han Yu took the initiative to recruit talents, hoping to find a real talent in the world, replace himself as the Prime Minister of Dali, lead the Dali country to enrich the people and unify the Jiuzhou!

And now!

After searching hard for several years, and after a long period of careful research and in-depth understanding, he finally discovered this rare pearl in the world - Wei Yang!

Today, he personally upheld the order of the Heavenly Revelation, just to enter the palace to meet the saint, and strongly recommended Wei Yang to Your Majesty to replace the Prime Minister of the Dali Kingdom and the Chief Auxiliary of the Cabinet!!

...

"Chengze Imperial Palace started from the Great Wei Dynasty and lasted for hundreds of years!

To inherit the kindness of God is to inherit the sorrow.

It covers an area of ​​thousands of acres, with more than a hundred palaces of all sizes and nearly ten thousand houses!

The Chengze Palace's large scale, unique style, exquisite craftsmanship, grand layout, gorgeous furnishings, glorious architecture, and magnificent momentum are actually the most important of all dynasties and the most important of the nine provinces!

However, such a treasure of Central Plains civilization was destroyed by Qianman's hands and burned down, which was really angered by both man and god!"
