The Legend of the Great Wilderness

Chapter 333 Enthronement and Concubine-2
Now that Bai Minguo has been wiped out, Youdi and his elders can't even care about helping the younger brother. It doesn't matter if you don't do the face project of submitting a letter, you're going to bite me!

However, although you don't have to worry about Da You, who is thousands of miles away, coming to make trouble, you still have to guard against the reactions of the surrounding princes in [Zhongrong County]. This is why Guyi was reluctant to take over the throne of King Baimin at first reason.

Speaking of it, Guyi had to admire the emperors of the central dynasty such as "Yu, Yin, Ji, Ying, and You" in history. He already felt dizzy just taking care of such a small place with a big "booger" [Qingshi collar] It's as big as a fight, how did those emperors manage such a huge wilderness?
Regardless of the actual territory of [Qingshi Ling], it is nominally only within the Three Rivers Great Wall, about 50 square kilometers of land (not enclosing the mountains), but the current control area has actually expanded to the entire [Ironforge Fortress ] about millions of square kilometers, and will continue to slowly erode into the surrounding areas further.

If this kind of territory is placed in the original world of Guyi, it is already considered a superpower, but in the Great Wilderness, it is not even considered a border town. Just in the territory of [Ironforge], even Taking the extremely developed waterway transportation, running from one end to the other, there may be thousands of kilometers of waterway.

Before the development of [Qingshiling] Tiangong ship technology, taking a trip on the original [Fangge] large ship with a speed of more than ten kilometers per hour, even if the road is non-stop, the one-way journey may take more than half a month!
In the early days, Guyi had a lot of headaches because of the bad traffic conditions like the Great Wilderness, and it was too inconvenient to manage, but Emperor You, an old man, actually had to manage such a huge territory of [Zhongyouyu], and he didn't die from overwork, which is already considered Fate.

Guyi was thinking wildly on his own, but the people below had already arranged the entire process of enthroning and accepting concubines according to the etiquette system. Xuanmian's parade paraded through the market and arrived at the White House. Leading by Si Xiaonuo, who was in charge, began to complete the extremely complicated process of ancient rituals.

Although he was extremely impatient, Guyi could only endure it by himself. He spent most of the day like a marionette, following Si Xiaonuo's whispered instructions beside him, saluting to the sky and paying homage to the earth. I was also surrounded by a group of old men with white beards waving branches and danced for a long time.

After the torment was over, he was sent to the main hall of the White House, and sat down on the "throne" throne on the nine steps.

With Gu Yi's current physique so strong, he couldn't help but feel back pain and leg cramps. He secretly breathed a sigh of relief and touched the big sandalwood chair with a thick tiger skin under his buttocks. Si Xiaonuo: "Is it over?"

Si Xiaonuo, who had a solemn face, almost let out a chuckle, and forced herself to say: "Taiyi wait a moment, the elder [Bai Minguo] Zong will crown you, and the princess will give you the king's seal, and it will be over!"

Hearing not much, Gu Yi also heaved a sigh of relief, and sat down with the golden knife, waiting for the old crown of Bai Minzong. There should have been hundreds of officials from the Bai Republic of China to pay homage, and the nobles of the clan to see the ceremony, etc., but before Under the behest of the Baimin Queen, the bloody cleansing carried out almost killed all the clans and officials who were secretly attached to the power and disturbed the wind and rain, but these two procedures were omitted.

Soon, an old man in a white robe came from outside the hall tremblingly holding a nine-pronged crown. However, he walked for a distance of tens of meters in less than 5 minutes. Yi Kuai was dying of anxiety, finally waited for him to crawl over, mumbled nonsense in old Bai people's language for a long time, and then put the crown made of all kinds of pearls on his head.

Then the sparse Baimin clan had an audience with the new king. A woman in gorgeous pure clothes was holding a seal and walked slowly from outside the palace under the service of two rows of Baimin female officials. The jade seal on her hand attracted her, but Si Xiaonuo who was beside her reminded her in a low voice: "This girl is the princess of Baimin!"

Although Gu Yi felt awkward being reminded by the "principal room" that it was the "little three", but he couldn't help but peeked at the Baimin princess for a few times, but was disappointed to find that the princess also wore a lot of jewelry on her head He Liguan, and a veil covering his face hangs in front of him, so that people can't see his face clearly.

Gu Yi, who has regarded this matter as a political mission from the very beginning, would be lying if he said that he was not curious at all, even though he had embraced it even if the Queen Baimin was as old as Zhu Bajie and his second aunt, she gritted her teeth and endured the humiliation. Married, it's amazing to cheat the throne and the king's seal, and put that girl in the cold palace and make her a widow.

But after all, she is a well-known "little three", and she may not meet frequently in the future. It is better to look good than to regret half a year after glancing at her. What's the matter with covering her face?

But just looking at the slender figure and the pair of white jade-like catkins protruding from the large sleeves of the toga, I think I won’t be too old, and I think it’s true. In this wild custom, women marry at the age of 12, and they think they are qualified. The "marriage" will not be old second-hand goods, so Gu Yi has a little bit of anticipation.

The Baimin princess held the royal seal and walked to the royal steps of the throne. After a short stop, the twelve female officials lined up on both sides and stood with their heads bowed. He raised the wooden plate above his head, and began to recite a long passage of diligulu in the ancient Bai people's language.

Anyway, if you don't even fully understand Taihua, Gu Yi will definitely not understand it. You just think the other party's voice is as melodious and melodious as an oriole coming out of the valley. Seeing that he was still kneeling in front of him holding a plate without moving, Gu Yi was about to get up and be a gentleman to help him up.

But as soon as the body leaned forward, Si Xiaonuo pinned his shoulders, and he broke out in a cold sweat as if he was being raped on the bed. Guiltily, he sneaked a glance at Si Xiaonuo, but saw her angry and funny slightly Shaking his head, Lianbu moved over to take the wooden plate lightly, and without telling Princess Baimin to get up, he just turned around and returned to his original position.

Guyi secretly pondered whether he should call out "Pingshen" or something, Princess Baimin stood up by herself, took two steps back, went down two imperial steps, stood on the seventh step, and watched the ceremony from the audience All the people shouted and paid homage at the same time, which was very lively.

How else can we say that the ancient emperors had many rules, and the procedures were all in one set. Wearing a hat and taking a seal is not the end, and it took a long time to settle down. All male officials left the palace Outside, only a group of female officers remained.

Gu Yi looked eastward and westward to see what was going on, the Baimin princess bowed Yingying, and said softly, "Daughter of Concubine Pin, Baifei Qiyuanji, see Your Majesty!" All the female officials also gathered together All bowed down and proclaimed the king.

Gu Yi, who was not used to his status as the "Staying King", subconsciously turned his head to look at Si Xiaonuo, saw her nodding slightly, then raised his hand to wake them up, but when he raised his hand, he didn't wait for a sound Well, he consciously thanked the gift and stood up, which made Gu Yi sweat again, so he simply shut up and waited, thinking: Anyway, I am the biggest today, so let's put on a show!
"Please show me, Your Majesty, how will the female officials in this palace perform their duties in the future?"

Bai Fei Pin Qiyuan, who waited for a long time without seeing Guyi speak, hesitated for a moment, and asked for instructions softly.

Gu Yidong looked around for a while, pushed aside the bead curtain dangling in front of his eyes, and secretly asked Si Xiaonuo beside him in a low voice: "Can I talk now?"

Si Xiaonuo and Bai Concubine Pin Qiyuan were so sweaty, all the female officials below couldn't help laughing, and buried their heads in their chests.

Si Xiaonuo, who knew that Gu Yi was hopeless, sighed, and said, "Don't blame Baifei, the king is not familiar with common etiquette, how about allowing me to act as the king's agent for palace affairs?"

Presumably, this concubine Bai also had a thorough understanding of the situation of the people around Gu Yi from Xiao Bing, and knew that the girl who was in charge of [Qingshi collar] affairs for Gu Yi, although she had no official status, was absolutely an ordinary maid, so she hurriedly squatted down respectfully. Li: "Female Situ, please give me your instructions."

"Please see, Concubine Bai. In the White House, there are twelve palaces, thirty gardens, twelve main halls, and thirty auxiliary halls. There are 99 gardens in total, and there are 800 people in the palace. The fifth department of the court, the six ministers, and other offices; the various departments in the inner garden, the Baifei can appoint herself, and from now on, all the internal and external affairs of the White House will be taken care of by the Baifei..."

When Si Xiaonuo explained it in detail, Guyi was taken aback. In this small White House, there are actually more than 1 people on duty, which is too extravagant and wasteful. Moreover, the official staff is set up after the royal staff. What the hell is going on with the whole country and China?
But after listening to it, Guyi found that Si Xiaonuo, this little girl, is not simple. She seems to completely delegate power to the concubine Bai and let her take care of the palace affairs, but in fact, the sphere of influence of the concubine Bai is only limited. Within this small area of ​​less than one square kilometer, the officials of the Fifth Division and the Six Ministers were only set up to accommodate the still-stable elders of the Bai nationality, and the scope of power is also only within the scope of the White House. Inside.

The maintenance cost of the White House is borne by the [Qingshi Ling] official, mainly the salaries of the more than 1 beautiful girls who are carefully selected from among the noble and noble women of the Baimin royal family.

After listening to Si Xiaonuo's arrangement of duties for the palace staff, Gu Yi sweated a little. Si Xiaonuo is a ruthless girl. In the future, the people in the White House will not only be responsible for the maintenance and operation of this "royal garden", but also be responsible for it. Started the ritual and music sacrificial work of [Qingshi Ling].

This is tantamount to turning those old Bai folks into park rangers, and turning these white female officials into a [Qingshiling] full-time art troupe...

After listening to Si Xiaonuo's arrangement, Concubine Bai, Pin Qiyuan, could not help but breathe a sigh of relief, and bowed softly, "Thank you, Situ, for taking pity on my Bai people... the people of the Bai nationality, it is very good to give them food, clothing and shelter... Very good!"
