Chapter 262 Earth Water Master, Foundation of Luck
"Xiahou! Xiahou! Xiahou..."

All the civil and military officials of the Xia Kingdom, all the people of the people, cheered loudly. Their princes have been recognized by the heavens, which means that the destiny is in their hands!

From now on, they will be the glorious people of the Xia Kingdom and an integral part of a vassal state.

In the countless troubled times recorded in the Tianyuan Continent, it is clearly told to later generations that a separatist force must at least become a Marquis in order to have a certain status.

This is called princes.

In ancient times, there were two periods of great division that lasted the longest, the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. They almost ran through the dynasty, and the area under the actual control of the emperor only occupied a corner of the Central Plains.

At this time, Daxu can still fully control the core states of Zhongzhou, Luo, Bian, etc., and the emperor in the period of great division, even Zhongzhou was not stable when he was weakest.

At that time, the system of five emperors taking turns in heaven had not yet been formed, and conflicts and struggles were frequent.

Mantian Xianshen not only fights externally, but also shows no mercy to the 33-day internal territory scramble.

If the sky can't take care of it, how can it take care of the world.

From being the Son of Heaven during the Great Split of the Spring and Autumn and Warring States Periods, he also became the moment with the lowest authority and status after the Emperor's Era.

However, because the lessons of the Heavenly Court ending the Taoist Era and the Human Emperor's Era are vividly remembered, no matter how arrogant the separatists are, they will not openly provoke the emperor.

Even in order to show respect to the emperor, heroes from all over the world will make offerings, and they will ask the emperor for instructions on various ceremonial matters.

In the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, a powerful country with a certain right to speak, and the emperor generally would not refute his request, was called a vassal state.

The monarchs of the vassal states all have the title of marquis or above, and they are called princes. Their powerful strength can influence the decision-making of the emperor, and their power is unparalleled for a while.

Even after the end of the great division period, the princes are still synonymous with the monarchs of great powers and are respected.

If Zhou Bai sends an envoy to Shenjing now, Daxu will treat him like a feudal lord without any neglect.

Listening to the cheers of countless subjects, Zhou Bai felt that just raising his hand could bring about great luck.

From Bojun to Houjun, from Junshang to Junhou, the change of title also means a sudden elevation of status.

……

Zhou Bai was actually a little stunned by the changes before and after the celestial phenomena.

The above-mentioned internal conflicts seem to be not small. It is obvious that the one who is more "close" to him is the Red Emperor, but it is unexpected that the Qing Emperor will respond first.

Chimai might want to take advantage of this opportunity to make some demands on the son of luck who does not inherit the luck of virtue, but who would have thought that someone would pry the corner of the wall in front of his face.

Zhou Bai was naturally willing to accept Qingmai's overtures, at least it resolved the current embarrassing situation.

Tianting is currently the undisputed ruler of the Tianyuan world, and its recognition of the Marquis of the Great Xia will save Zhou Bai a lot of resources and energy that will be used to promote the orthodoxy of the destiny.

Now the theory of destiny and vision is still the mainstream discourse among the people in the mainland. Without a master recognized by the heaven, it will be difficult to gain the trust of ordinary people.

Just like today's Tongzhi Emperor, Chidi didn't canonize him as the emperor, so there are many countries in the world, and most of them are independent countries.

But Daxu did not dare to call it "rebellion" to denounce countries like Dingxi and Xia, just because Daxu lost the law of destiny that the Heavenly Court has shaped since ancient times.

In desperation, everyone took the emperor's matter to the public and said that the only one who would be ashamed would be Daxu's court.

The Mandate of Heaven is granted by the Heavenly Court, and the "Human Emperor" must be canonized by the Heavenly Emperor as the Son of Heaven, etc. Zhou Bai cannot change this kind of thought that is deeply rooted in the people of the Tianyuan Continent.

This is the Heavenly Court, before the spiritual energy revived, controlled the reincarnation of countless generations of dynasties, and shaped it with the supreme power.

But it's not that Zhou Bai didn't think of ways to deal with it, such as establishing his own myth with victory after victory, or manipulating public opinion.

The matter of manipulating public opinion and guiding mainstream thoughts among the people had already begun to lay out when he published Sui Han's poetry anthology.

Thanks to the great sales and dissemination of the poetry anthology, the Zhou family bookstore opened in the city gradually became famous. After Zhou Bai won Dingzhou Jieyuan, the bookstore opened all over Dingzhou, and then began to solicit manuscripts from folk scholars.

In the follow-up Sui Han Ji, basically only one or two poems in each issue are Zhou Bai's own poems, and the rest are fine works selected by the editors of the bookstore.

After Zhou Baizhong became a Jinshi, became a general who subdue the demons, established the Anbei Dudufu, and until the founding of the country, the release area of ​​Sui Han Ji became wider and wider, and the content became more and more abundant.

Now that Xia Kingdom has become the overlord of Dingzhou, Sui Han Ji has become a kind of comprehensive folk newspaper, which is much more popular than the official residence newspaper.

If the Heavenly Court does not recognize his marquis and country title this time, then his Sui Han Ji will be fully publicized, and hundreds of editors have already prepared the manuscripts of public articles written by themselves.

Zhou Bai understood very well that no matter which branch of the five emperors he was in, they would not really support him in the end.

Just because he didn't want to become a "puppet" of the heavenly court, and went to ask for the canonization of a son of the emperor of Laoshi.

If the Marquis recognizes it, the Duke may not recognize it. If the Duke recognizes it, the King may not recognize it. In short, the heaven will not allow a virtuous person to dominate the world.

The celestial vision that represented the recognition gradually disappeared, and only stopped at the ordinary celestial phenomena. The purple air coming from the east is already a struggle between the two emperors, and Zhou Bai can take advantage of this to obtain the most superior proof of celestial destiny.

There is no such thing as the legendary real dragon crossing the border, and there is no honor that some great princes have received.

Zhou Bai is not the first person to be promoted to a noble. According to news, in Central Region, Jiangnan and other places, there are Earls promoted to Marquis, and Marquis to Duke. The decree admits.

Of course, the current situation is already considered good. In the next period of time, Daxia can develop steadily, and there is no need to spend energy on arguing about destiny.

As Zhou Bai bowed to the sky in return, the vision dissipated, and the sky once again returned to the blue sky.

The follow-up process is much easier. They are all step-by-step, and the process will be completed quickly.

After Zhou Baiqi drove back to the palace, the discussion among the four parties exploded. The diplomatic missions of various countries, the onlookers, and even the middle and lower level officials who were unaware of the Xia Kingdom were all discussing in surprise.

"National name Xia? It's unbelievable. Zhou Houjun has the confidence to take on such an ancient national title. Aren't you afraid of being crushed by this burden?"

"I remember that in history, the later Xia lasted only a short dozen or 20 years at most, and there was only one Xia Kingdom established by a non-pure-blooded Xia person, and it lasted nearly 200 years."

"Risks and opportunities coexist. This country's title occupies a righteous name and will arouse hostility from all countries. But as long as it withstands the impact, its foundation of luck is unprecedented."

"No matter what, Zhou Xia is also a dignified vassal state. The length of the country is not what we care about. Now the main thing is to establish diplomatic relations and figure out the direction of Xiahou's next expansion..."

Zhou Bai watched all directions with his eyes and listened to all directions, and the not-so-secret discussions of the missions from various countries came to his ears one after another.

In fact, one of them mentioned the key point. He took the name of the country as Xia, mainly because he wanted to inherit the luck foundation of the first generation of Xia Dynasty.

This is also what most princes value. Establishing a country is fundamentally the foundation of luck. It is not just a joke to name the country and inherit the foundation of luck.

Throughout the ages, the basis for taking country names has been limited to one framework, such as: traditional tribal names and geographical names. Many early countries evolved from tribes, and many country names directly followed the names of the original tribes or regions.

This is also what most people think. If Anbei changes his name next, it should be called Dingguo.

However, if it is called Dingguo, it can only inherit the foundation of Dingguo in previous history, which is tantamount to nothing.

Because Dingzhou was established in the Great Xu period, and the establishment of the system has just been established. At most, it can inherit the foundation of some small countries like the former Andu country?

In addition, the name of the country can also be based on the name of the ancestor, the name of the fief, myths and legends, and even excerpts from some ancient books.

However, after the human dynasty has changed many times, the country's title is usually no longer created by itself, unless it is a certain unborn holy master who insists on creating a new name after he dominates the world.

This is of course allowed, and future generations of potential heroes may inherit the title of "Xin Guo".

However, the mainstream method is still the broad place names of the founding areas, the titles of the founders, and the inheritance of ancient country titles.

The orthodox country name is naturally one word, and the name of Anbei is excluded. Zhou Bai of Dingguo feels that the foundation of luck is not enough, so he excludes it.

Famous countries in the north, Yan, Dai, Liang, Liao... However, these are not to mention how old they are, but it is a fact that they have never unified the world.

In the north, there is a king, but not an emperor.

So Zhou Bai simply took a big name, Xia, intending to inherit the foundation of ancient Xia's luck, this is a dynasty that once had a human emperor.

If you want to say that Zhou Bai didn't think about attracting the unseen humanity, it's impossible.

The emperor's will, which has been scattered in the long river of history, is one of his future goals.

Of course, in order to prevent this cause and effect from destroying him in the early stage, Zhou Bai did not hesitate to consume [-] points of origin, deducing the development of Xia Kingdom after Xiahou.

If he wants to deduce such a big change, he can't see the development of the situation clearly, so he has to increase many restrictions.

In the last three hundred points of origin, he successfully observed a thread of luck, which was only a hexagram entry in the heavenly book of luck.

Earth water division.

[Derivation of Qi Luck: Earth Water Master] (The ups and downs, the waves are big, and the autumn is full of troubles. However, if you walk the right way and be brave, you may be able to overcome all difficulties, and you will be delighted by surprise.)
It was very vague, but it was enough for Zhou Bai to gamble. After all, the vision in his heart has gradually become clear.

That is, after the unification of the world, instead of being the puppet emperor of a certain heavenly emperor, the heavenly dynasty on earth after the spiritual energy has been revived is established.

If you want to realize this ambition, if you don't use radical methods and place heavy bets, how can you turn the thigh of the sky.

As the Great Xia becomes more and more powerful, gaining the great luck of humanity, the greater the probability of attracting the Emperor's will.

At that time, the Three Ways of Human Beings and Immortals, who rule the world under the Great Xia Dynasty, may have a glimmer of life, and use the luck of the Celestial Dynasty to help them escape?
Three hundred points of origin not only got a comment from a water master, but also allowed Zhou Bai to clarify his future path.

If there is a direction, it will come.

……

Lei Haomiao's only palace that he could take out has now become the Xia Kingdom Zhongji Palace, the place where the great court discusses affairs.

With the promotion of status and the expansion of the system, various etiquette rules have become more stringent.

The censor of the Metropolitan Procuratorate glanced at the officials entering the palace wave after wave, and immediately reprimanded them if there were any omissions in etiquette.

Soon, several eunuchs selected from Lei Haomiao Palace poured out from the apse and lined up on both sides of the golden throne.

"Waiting for you..."

Amidst the sharp eunuch singing, all the civil and military personnel hurriedly stopped all small movements in their hands, stood still and closed their eyes without speaking.

They looked at Zhou Bai solemnly and excitedly, and they all paid homage together and said, "I will see you, the Lord!"

"Everyone is flat." Zhou Bai sat calmly, looking at the officials in the palace with a little relief.

The county is full of air, the yellow halls are everywhere, and the bruises are like...

Dayan came back from hard work, and continued to expand the territory, with great luck. At this time, there were no people with low luck in the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty.

Changing one's fate was so difficult in the past, but in this world of frequent changes, under Zhou Bai's hands, it is not something that cannot be accomplished.

Many old ministers and old faces can still be seen in the great court of the Hou State, Zhou Bai is of course very pleased.

Without the support of these subordinates, how would he have achieved what he is today as a crowd-gatherer.

One person attained the Dao and ascended to heaven, Zhou Bai himself was promoted to Marquis, and his martial arts and military skills would naturally follow suit.

"Great summer, the whole country celebrates together...According to the wishes of the heavens, carrying them all over the world, and being blessed forever...

Gu Wei is on the throne, responsible for the Daxia Sheji.I know that it is Lai Qing and others that lead to the prosperity of our great country.Therefore, it is destined to treat hard-working and honorable ministers from day to day... to show the world with the light, and to benefit the aspirations of the country's scholars.

Gu Mo is grateful to Wanduan and decides to reward him more generously.Set up officials and confer titles, support the wings and draw paintings, with the hard work of Ming Qing and others.All honors, from the humble to the noble, must be judged carefully..."

The follow-up specific rewards are actually the promotion of the six departments as a whole to the first rank, and the officials of the six departments will naturally be promoted accordingly.

Previously, the six Shangshu were only of the fourth rank, wearing the scarlet robe, but now they are all of the third rank, wearing the purple robe.

This is basically the case in local counties, counties and townships. Except for those who made mistakes and were punished, it can basically be said that everyone is promoted and everyone is happy.

In addition, Chen Zhongbang, Lou Jinpeng, Li Dingguo and others were granted the title of baron, and 37 generals at all levels were granted the title of national scholar.

There are no people in the palace who have been ennobled in Chinese or military. They look at the "jazz" with envy, and secretly swear in their hearts that they must make meritorious deeds to be ennobled.

The Lord of England is in power, the country is getting stronger and stronger, and the hearts of the people are united. At this time, if you don't try your best to take advantage of the east wind, which generation of the family will have such an opportunity.

Soon, amidst all smiles, the process of conferring rewards was completed.

"If there is something to play, if there is nothing to do, leave the court." The foreman eunuch stood up again and sang like this.

At the first meeting of the court, there should not have been anything to discuss, but Chen Zhongbang, the chief minister of the cabinet, resolutely came out.

"Back to the Lord, I have something to play."

"can."

Zhou Bai's expression didn't change at all, because he knew what Chen Zhongbang was going to say.

"Since ancient times, it has never been heard that there are princes and princes without a mother. Now that the foundation of the princes and princes has been established, they should think about the sake of the country and the country, and continue the country..."

After Chen Zhongbang finished speaking, he immediately knelt down, followed by the old Zipao Pavilion, senior officials from the Six Departments, Lou Jinpeng and other generals, and finally all the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty echoed the request.

Yes, how can there be a monarch who has created such a foundation, and how can his subjects be safe if he has not yet married a wife and had children.

"...Blessed by the sky, the ancient heroes and sages will inherit the world. Like the sun and the moon, each has its own order, like the years and the wild, each has its own time...Respecting state affairs, condensing pines and cypresses, as for ten thousand years."

"I heard that Yu Yueyun is virtuous and virtuous, so I should take Yunei with me, grow up together, and shine together... I should be Mrs. Hou."
