Look south to Buzhou and pour water into the city.
The gates of the capital city of the Xia Dynasty were now wide open, flags were fluttering along the roads, and many bronze armored men, halberd warriors and horsemen were filing in through the city gates while talking loudly. It was obvious that the Xia King Sigui had returned to the court "again".
More than a hundred years ago, after the late emperor Kong Jia changed "sacrifice to ancestors" to "respect the emperor of heaven", those tribes that were originally dissatisfied but still paid tribute on time gradually began to openly refuse or reduce the tribute without authorization. Kong Jia also reciprocated, directly
He sent troops to attack and plundered his people as slaves. His son Gao and Gao Zifa followed suit, which led to an increasing number of people who were dissatisfied with Xia Shi.
It was passed down to Sigui that when he saw a beautiful woman while hunting, he wanted to take her away. If his tribe refused, he would be considered a traitor and lead his army to attack. This led to tribes closer to Zhenlu hiding the women in their houses.
She is not allowed to see anyone. If she is accidentally seen and falls into Sigui's will, she will either be handed over to her, or the whole clan will be prepared to fight and attack her.
This was how Moxi's sister Xi, who had escaped from the palace, was plundered. After she escaped, Sigui searched everywhere and couldn't find her, so he led his army to attack another disobedient tribe, the "Younan clan".
Just returned to the army.
"Hey, Lao Pan, do you want a carrot? Why didn't you bring back the slave this time?"
A guard guarding the door looked around for a moment and took the initiative to talk to a familiar soldier commander who was passing by.
"Hey, don't mention it. Damn it, there are male clans." The soldier commander slipped out of the team, hid in the doorway and broke off a piece of carrot from the guard to eat: "I don't know what this clan thinks, so that men can take care of the children in the tribe.
Children were weaving and watering the fields, but it was the women who were out hunting and mining. As a result, the men were weak and enchanting, while the women were strong and strong, which turned off the king. He robbed them of some food and came back. But those crying men - ugh!
"
The soldier commander, who was called Lao Pan, didn't know what he thought of and shuddered violently.
"You are so unfortunate," the guard patted his shoulder, and then looked at the long queue: "I hope the king will forget that we lost his concubine."
"No chance, no chance," the soldier said: "Master Zhonggu and Master Guan Longfeng may help you plead for mercy, but Master Zhao Liang will definitely deal with it impartially."
"Hey..." the guard sighed, looking at the troops entering the city and saying nothing.
In ancient times, he was the head of the civil servants, and Guan Longfeng was the head of the military attachés. However, the words of the two ministers were not as useful as those of Zhao Liang, because what they talked about was how to govern the country and the army, but what Zhao Liang said was
Enjoy.
King Xia had a great time and responded casually to what Zhao Liang asked him. Fortunately, although King Xia had extraordinary military power, he was not smart enough.
It was a matter of vital importance to the dynasty, and he did not dare to speak out directly. This resulted in no major incident happening to the Xia Chamber of Commerce.
————
Xia Palace.
"Your Majesty, this Moxi family——"
"Go away! I am going to wash my eyes!"
After disbanding the army, King Xia quickly returned to the palace. The thin Zhao Liang was about to say something when he was pushed away by the tall and strong Sigui and went straight into the palace.
"Huh." Zhao Liang got up, looked at Zhong Gu and Guan Longfeng who were openly laughing at him, snorted and walked away.
Si Gui would not care about the conflicts behind him. He couldn't wait to see the delicate and lovely concubines in the harem, because the "most beautiful woman" who was "a male" really made him have the urge to poke his own eyes.
She is two heads taller than him, her arms are thicker than his thighs, her shoulders are broad enough to stand on, and the ax in her hand is bigger than a wheel. The most outrageous thing is her rough voice: "Are you Xia Bastard? I am
Call me my beloved, I really care about you, but don’t you care about me?"
That guy...did Empress Nuwa use double materials when she made her?
The most unlucky thing is that because of his habit of snatching young women when they are free, every household has hidden young women. The women he can see along the way back are all aunts in their fifties or sixties, and the faces of these aunts
The wrinkles made him feel - that "beloved man" seemed to have pretty good skin - ahhh! I can't think about it! I couldn't help but poke myself blind!
Sigui ran all the way and only stopped briefly when passing the "Night Palace".
This palace is more like a treasure house than a residence. The good things he obtained during his conquests from various tribes are accumulated here. It is also a prison cell where the women from various tribes who were snatched by him live temporarily.
The reason for "temporary residence" is that with the background of those women, it is impossible to see these treasures that only the kings who truly own the world can collect. As long as they can't help but ask for them, then it is impossible to have them again.
The reason for rejecting him, or in other words, after living a life of luxury and good food, even if he drives them away, he may not be willing to do so.
What if the fox-like Mei Xi, who was so rare that I wanted to give him the position of queen, had some strange magical powers to protect me? As long as I waited for a while and fell in love with something in the treasure house, I could still find it.
Can't be lifted voluntarily?
At least that's what he thought.
As a result, Meixi didn't like any of the treasures in the palace. According to the reports of the guards who tracked her, when she escaped, she only took away the jugs, wine glasses and official hats belonging to the outside guards. The only thing related to the treasures was the
The low-quality silk used to wipe them—the jade lock she smashed when she escaped is more valuable than those things!
However, only a woman who truly despises those things is qualified to be her queen, right?
Sigui originally only planned to take a breath or two, but his thoughts wandered and stayed for a while longer. Finally, he was awakened by the footsteps of servants and guards chasing after him from the main entrance. He laughed at himself and was about to continue to the harem, but he accidentally caught a glimpse of "
A beautiful scene in "The Night Palace".
Haha, isn't he back? Sigui turned around and walked towards the palace filled with treasures. As for the guards who were incompetent enough to let her come and go at will, they can wait until after the king's wedding to pursue their dereliction of duty.
"Sister--" Sigui pushed open the palace door and was about to call out "Sister!" but was stunned.
The first thing he saw was white, layer upon layer, like waves,
Exquisite styles that have never been seen before, snow-white materials that have never been heard of, are intertwined into a long skirt with a long hem.
The next thing I noticed was the red, red lips like red cherry blossoms among the endless white.
Then, he saw the skin that looked like gelatin, the face that looked like a peach blossom, the bright eyes and white teeth, the delicate and flawless face, and the white gauze on her ink-inked hair.
When the pair of eyes, one golden and one red, either happy or angry, turned towards me like sparks of fire, they seemed to be looking at a person who had been in love for a long time and was finally able to put on a wedding dress for him.
At that moment, the entire treasure house was eclipsed by this glance.
Bang! The next moment, Sigui was hit hard on the back of the head and passed out. Of course, he could not hear the sweet scolding from the woman:
"Who are you calling sister? This is not for you to wear!"
