Chapter 174 The best beat horse San Yisheng Sheng Deze and withered bones
After seeing Lei Zhenzi, Di Xin never followed him to Xiqi again. As time passed, his state of mind continued to change.
But even though he had known that Jiang Ziya would leave, the feeling of betrayal was still hard to accept and made him heartbroken. It was better to go back to Chaoge and practice Qi with peace of mind.
Unconsciously, like Queen Jiang, and like Fei Zhong, she has developed feelings for Jiang Ziya, truly likes him as a person, and respects Jiang Ziya as a person.
But he finally left, and Emperor Xin couldn't help but feel a little lonely. He no longer had the interest to go to Xiqi to watch the fun, or to be more precise, he didn't want to see Jiang Ziya.
And if Daji heard the words to kill Daji, but she didn't know how shocked her heart would be, what crime did she have in this world that everyone said they wanted to kill her?
Di Xin himself didn't know.
As a result, the next day in Xiqi City, there were posters hanging all over the doors, which alerted countless soldiers and civilians in Xiqi City, who came to see the notice.
Nangong Shizi, who had already known the news, also came and invited Mao Gongsui to wait for Xiqi's four sages and eight horses to come and see the "fun". Anyway, there must be "fun".
Many of the ninety-eight sons of King Wen of Xibohou also showed up to see their father's announcement.
But as soon as the notice was posted, a crowd of civil and military personnel immediately surrounded it.
But I saw that there was a lot of dense writing in the previous book.
"King Wen of Xibei issued a message to the army and the people:
The territory of Xiqi is a land of morality, without the disturbance of war and force. The people are safe and secure, and the officials are clean due to lawsuits. They are isolated in prison and restrained, and they return to the country with grace and pardon.
Due to the recent frequent disasters and depleted water resources, I checked the local area to find out the auspiciousness of the disasters, but found that there was no site for the altar. Yesterday I looked at a corner of official land in the west of the city and wanted to build one, called the "Lingtai", to predict the wind weather.
Examine civilian disasters.
We are also afraid that the complicated civil engineering work will harm the labor of your army and civilians, so we will give ICBC one penny a day. This work does not depend on the distance of the day, but it is done according to the convenience of the people.
Those who are willing to work will be named in the register so that they can be traced; if they are not willing, they can operate as they wish without any coercion. If you want to know, let everyone know."
There seems to be nothing unusual, except that he wants to build a 'spiritual platform' to express his benevolence and righteousness.
But the key is the countless soldiers and civilians who can't be seen from the outside.
As a result, after the notice was posted, Nangong Shi and the civil and military officials, as well as dozens of Xibohou's sons who had been invited to watch the excitement, had not yet finished reading the notice. At least a few hundred people outside the notice shouted in unison:
"The kindness of your Majesty is as great as the sky, and there is no way to repay it. We play at sunrise, return home at sunset, and enjoy the blessing of peace. This is all given by your Majesty.
Now that your Majesty wants to build a spiritual platform, you still want to receive wages for it. Even though our brains are bruised and our hands and feet are calloused, we are still willing to do it. Besides, how can we accept the wages from your Majesty's wages instead of trying to predict misfortune and good luck for our people?"
As a result, after hearing this, everyone couldn't help but twitching at the corners of their mouths, and their expressions were extremely weird.
‘This has been memorized and rehearsed for a long time!’
'Hundreds of people shouted in unison, word for word, that San Yisheng really has no shame at all!'
'How shameless!'
In an instant, everyone couldn't help but feel ashamed. Even the people who had nothing to do with it couldn't help but feel embarrassed. Hundreds of people howled and shouted in unison. The scene was really not an ordinary weird one.
It can be said that no matter how shameless a minister is, he has never been seen to be so shameless. Even the rumored ministers Jiang Ziya, Fei Zhong, and You Hun in the Shang Dynasty are not so shameless, right?
On the other side, San Yisheng had also been waiting in the city for a long time. When he heard the shouts in unison, he carried Ben directly into the palace and started to play, 'The people's sentiment is like this, and the spiritual platform can be built.'
But it doesn’t matter what you, Nangong Shi and others think.
As a result, the task of building the 'Lingtai' was naturally given to Qi Sanyisheng, but although he was a close minister of Ji Chang, he did not understand Fuxi Bagua, so the Lingtai had to be designed by Xibohou himself.
It can be said that the height of the platform needs to be two feet, and the momentum should be based on the three talents. The upper part is divided into Bagua and combines Yin and Yang, and the lower part is Nine Palaces and is determined by Phoenix and Tiger. The four corners must have the shape of the four seasons, and the left and right parts must have the symbols of heaven and earth.
The front and back should also match the meaning of the monarch and his ministers, and the surroundings should have the aura of wind and cloud. When the top is in line with the heart of heaven and corresponds to the four seasons, and the bottom is in line with the earth and households and belongs to the five elements, the middle is in line with people's wishes and the weather is smooth.
Fuxi Bagua is used to perform the Feng Shui Lingtai, and it is impossible for students to understand it only if it is scattered.
However, he unintentionally ignored Ji Chang's instructions of "water and fire are combined with yin and yang" and "forgot" that there should be a swamp built under the spiritual platform.
And with the wisdom of King Wen Xibohou, after studying Fuxi Bagua carefully, he would not forget to tell him this important point.
So if he neglected to build a pond under the spiritual platform, King Wen and Xibohou would definitely ask about it later.
As a result, the spiritual platform was quickly completed. With King Wen Xibohou's attention, or rather his expectation for the Qi practitioners in the world, he immediately summoned Xiqi's civil and military officials and sat on Luan Yu to watch it.
Once again, San Yisheng, the leader, the Four Sages and Eight Horsemen, Nangong Shi, Mao Gongsui, and other civil and military officials, including more than ten representatives from the ninety-eight sons, headed by Ji Fa, gathered together to go.
Of course, everyone is also looking forward to it. We are looking forward to King Wen and Xibohou building a mourning platform. What kind of "disaster and auspiciousness" will we have? I am afraid that the spiritual platform is the key to everything.
What's more, everyone remembers that the poem recited by Taijiang outside Xiqi City can be said to be "from now on, Yao and Shun have been sanctified, and now the imperial foundation is established on the spiritual platform."
The kingship of the Western Zhou Dynasty must have arisen from the Lingtai, and the ‘emperor’s foundation’ was established from then on! The so-called ‘disaster auspiciousness’ naturally gave endless fantasies and expectations to all civil and military officials.
But even Ji Fa, who is gone, can't help but feel excited and expect that in the future, he can be like the great Shang lord Di Xin, and be called 'Emperor Fa'.
But when I think of 'Emperor Fa', I just feel that he is not as domineering as 'Emperor Xin', and has the power of the monarch of heaven and earth, and it seems not as pleasant as his own title of 'King Wu'.
As a result, while he was calmly thoughtful, he followed the two civil and military groups and quickly reached the spiritual stage.
What I saw was a majestic view with carved beams and painted beams and a majestic platform, which was large enough to accommodate hundreds of people.
But King Wen Xibohou sat on the Luan Yu and looked around, but he remained silent. He clearly remembered that he had carefully explained that a pond should be built under the Lingtai, and that water and fire should be combined with Yin and Yang. However, there was obviously less of it under the Lingtai.
A swamp.
"You can be as shrewd as San Yisheng, so how can you ignore what you have explained in detail?"
He couldn't help but remained silent. No one in the civil or military circles of the court noticed anything unusual. However, only San Yisheng observed his appearance and couldn't help but come out to ask:
"The work on the spiritual platform is completed today. Why is your Majesty displeased?"
In an instant, everyone's eyes couldn't help but fall on him, but no one noticed that King Wen was displeased. Could it be that there was something wrong?
King Wen and Xibohou also spoke calmly.
"It's not that I'm unhappy.
Although this platform is good, it lacks a swamp under the platform to fulfill the meaning of 'water and fire are both harmonious and coordinate with yin and yang'. If you want to open another swamp, you are afraid of overworking and injuring the people's strength, so it is depressing."
It is suitable for hearing and listening, and it can be communicated directly.
"The work of the Lingtai is very huge, and it will not be completed in a day. What's more, the work is very easy in the swamp under the platform."
After saying this, he turned around again and spoke loudly to the people in the audience.
"Another swamp was opened under the stage to correspond to the meaning of 'water and fire are both harmonious'."
After the words fell, several people immediately shouted in unison.
"What's so difficult about a small swamp? What a waste of time!"
Then, when everyone was dumbfounded and some eyes dropped, a group of people immediately started working on the spot.
And it is obvious that those people are waiting to dig at any time and have already prepared them. How can those people who cannot read a single word speak in literate words?
I saw a group of people who had obviously practiced it in unison, and they started digging directly. Without hoeing, they dug out a pile of dead bones, and several people began to throw them out one by one.
'What is this San Yisheng doing?'
Everyone couldn't help but stare, completely unable to understand San Yisheng's intention. However, even Ji Fa's mind could only frown slightly and could not understand it at all.
On the mourning platform, King Xibohou suddenly couldn't help but ask.
"What is it that the people have abandoned?"
Nangong Shi, who was dark and stocky, quickly moved his eyes and deliberately rushed forward to answer.
"When I came back to the king, I found a bunch of human bones, so the people threw them away!"
But before he could finish his words, Xibohou suddenly showed a look of pain on his face and hurriedly spoke again.
"Take the dead bones, put them in one place, put them in a box, and bury them in Gaofu. How can it be that the bones are exposed by opening a swamp alone? This is really the crime of being alone."
When the people under the mourning platform heard this, they immediately stopped working and sighed in unison.
"The saintly and virtuous king is as blessed as the dry bones, let alone our people, whose grace is untouched by the rain and dew. It is true that he spreads his will, and his principles are in harmony with the will of heaven. All the people in Xiqi have parents!"
When the voice fell, it was so fierce that almost everyone couldn't help but twitch the corners of their mouths, and their eyes were extremely strange.
Nangong Shi's eyes almost popped out of his head. First, there was a king who was kind and loving, and his power was as good as insects and trees. Now there is a saintly king, whose beauty is as good as dry bones! Can you, San Yisheng, be any more shameless?
Ji Fa's hands trembled when he heard this, and he hurriedly remained calm.
Finally, everyone understood in an instant that love is just a personal show for you, San Yisheng. How shameless! You actually used the king's memorial platform to flirt with you, and there were such obvious traces. I was afraid that the king didn't know that it was you who arranged it.
But at the same time, everyone had to admit that San Yisheng's ability to flatter horses was simply superb, and he taught everyone a good lesson, especially Nangong Shi, who really learned a lot this time.
First it was the work of benevolence and insects and vegetation, and now it is the virtue of saintliness and dry bones...
And it also made everyone suddenly think that the two rumored sycophants Jiang Ziya and Fei Zhong of Dashang are probably not as good as you, San Yisheng.
Therefore, the Lingtai is considered to be completed. The so-called missing pond can be dug at will.
The Xiqi Wenwu people who didn't want to wait to see "Disaster Xiang" actually watched San Yisheng's one-man show, almost everyone couldn't help but spit out blood, and cursed him for being shameless in his heart.
But at the same time, no one dared to show it, and San Yisheng remained calm, as if everything had nothing to do with him.
As a result, the swamp was dug soon, and without realizing that it was getting late, King Wen Xibohou simply held a banquet at the Lingtai. The so-called monarch and ministers had fun together, and it was because he was waiting for the long-awaited qi practitioner.
It can be said that Gu is summoned to build a spiritual platform, at least it should be a dream with Gu? Where can I ask for the Qi practitioner to help Gu succeed, raise an army to attack the merchants, and build my empire as a king in the Western Zhou Dynasty?
As a result, I didn’t want to just set up a couch and sleep on the mourning platform that night.
