Chapter 382: The Founding of the South (Happy New Year, please subscribe, please vote)

The southern region, which had been dormant for two years, suddenly became active.

The Liangjiang region and the Qiyang regime next to the south were a little nervous, and the imperial court in the capital immediately dispatched spies.

Then they received extremely shocking news: the temple was also going to be rebuilt in the south!

Moreover, the even more shocking news is that they actually use voting to decide who is in charge of the artifact.

For a time, the whole world was in an uproar.

Xia Yao wrote a letter to Wang Ping as soon as she got the news. Although she knew that the letter would probably not fall into Wang Ping's hands at this moment, she still had a lucky mentality and asked her confidants to send the letter.

After Yang Kui of Qi heard about it, he was even more nervous than the Xia royal family who went to the capital. He even sent an envoy to reprimand the barbaric and rude people in the south as the emperor. However, his envoy could not find the person to reprimand, and was finally killed by the south. Several subordinate officials at the Linlu Governor's Yamen revealed their identities and were beaten up by a group of children from aristocratic families on the street.

Yang Kui's nervousness and worry are not unreasonable, because once the south becomes independent, it will definitely move north. In this way, Pingzhou Road and Yunjiang Road will be attacked from both sides.

But all he could do was send one or two envoys to express his position.

Compared with Yang Kui's incompetent rage, the court behaved quite decently. They submitted formal negotiation documents through the Haizhou Road Governor's Palace and the Governor's Yamen, although they ended up breaking up unhappy and lost the Haizhou Road Governor's Palace and the governor's office. Control of the governor's yamen.

In the end, the imperial court invited Daozang Hall to hold a three-seat meeting. Unfortunately, no one who could really talk the talk came. Several ministers from the cabinet went to the headquarters of Daozang Hall in person, but found that there was not a single monk of the Third Realm in the huge Daozang Hall headquarters. Even the second realm monks only had a pitiful two people.

The voice of a snake demon sitting at the end of the table was slightly joking, and coupled with the unique sharpness of the snake demon's voice, ordinary people's gums might tremble when listening to it.

"The Daozang Palace exists in name only!"

When Zhong You, the Minister of Political Affairs and the Minister of Rites, walked out of the gate of Daozang Hall, he looked at the sky in the upper capital that was shrouded in golden light and let out a soft sigh.

"Since Daozang Hall has been disbanded, do we still need to sit here and discuss it?"

His words soon spread throughout Zhongzhou.

When the people present heard the news, some were secretly happy, some were worried, and some were gloating.

In fact, those who participated in Zuo Xuan's seminar can get a glimpse of the current Daozang Palace. There are indeed very serious family distinctions. For example, Liu Shuang is only a second-level junior, but he can occupy the position of inspector, such as Wu Quan, Gan Xing and others could only watch silently.

"Daozang Palace will not perish. When order is restored in Zhongzhou, it will continue to exist in another way." Mozhou Road's new pacification envoy, Taoist Zhi Gong, is an old woman with an old appearance. After hearing the news, she Say this slowly and firmly.

When the news reached Zuo Xuan's ears, it was already the evening of the third day of July. She was discussing tomorrow's Dharma meeting with the other comfort envoys and inspectors of the Sanlu Daozang Hall. Wu Quan, Gan Xing and the other three monks of the Third Realm and The two great demons were there as distinguished guests.

As soon as Taoist Zhi Gong finished speaking, Wu Quan on the opposite side sneered with disdain. This was due to the mutual hostility within the cave door, not because Wu Quan disagreed with Taoist Zhi Gong's words.

Zuo Xuan picked up the teacup and said with a smile: "Senior Bai Xi, if something happens, you can go back first."

Her manner was polite and her tone was light.

Just as the snake demon was about to speak, a gray-haired fox demon next to him said with an old woman's voice: "Inspector Zuo is joking, we have always obeyed the orders of Lord Xiaoshanfu, no matter whether the Daozang Palace still exists or not. "She cupped her hands in the direction of Liuxin Sect, "It was because of Xiaoshanfu Lord's mercy that we could have a place in Zhongzhou. I will never forget this kindness until my death!" If Wang Ping were here, You will find that this fox demon is the one who helped him on Ningzhou Road.

The snake demon Bai Xi chose to keep silent after hearing what the fox demon said, and his expression was not as energetic as before. It seemed that he had completely lost interest in this meeting.

“Senior Hu Yin’s words hold true!”

Zuo Xuan said politely and then got down to business, "First of all, tomorrow at 10:10, we will all enter the city from the south gate, lead the monks from all sects through the main street, and appear at the sacrifice site exactly at 10:00. The opening prayer of the ceremony will be given by Zhi Senior Gong, Senior Gan Xing, Senior Hu Yin and Taoist Fellow Yunshan jointly read..."

These four people respectively represent the Xuanmen Zongzong, the casual cultivators, the demon clan and the Star God Alliance.

Zuo Xuan introduced the process they discussed in one breath, and then asked the left and right parties what their opinions were.

There was a bit of silence at the scene, and Gan Xing said uncertainly: "Those aristocratic families have not yet chosen who will be their king?"

Taishan, the pacifier of Ningzhou Road, chuckled "haha", moved his somewhat fat body a little, and responded: "Don't worry, it will definitely be done before tomorrow morning. If not, just push someone up by then. .”

His casual tone made many people frown, and some people secretly laughed.

The four major families in the south gathered together and discussed for ten days and decided to use the title of "Junhou" instead of the emperor. This was a suggestion made by them and the students and professors of Zhonghui College in accordance with the ancient system. The country's name was determined to be "Chu" '.

But they couldn't choose the candidate for the monarch. In the remaining five days, they were quarreling for the first four days. They calmed down tonight and thought seriously about who to recommend.

Not only did they stay up all night tonight, every house in Fucheng was decorated with lanterns and colorful decorations. Countless people were waiting all night in the streets and alleys for tomorrow's Dharma meeting. Temporary flying ID cards were constantly marked in the sky. Zuo Xuan had to send out a guard team of monks. Set up reception points in the sky around Jinhuai City.

In addition, people from other places who came to participate in the ceremony formed a long dragon with torches, stretching for dozens of miles along the official roads around Jinhuai City.

Despite the gathering of so many people, there was no hustle and bustle in the city, but a sacred silence.

In this sacred silence, the bright moonlight in the sky kept changing. Unknowingly, it came to a quarter of the year (around three o'clock in the morning), when the aristocratic families from all over the country finally elected a person.

But it was Liu Jie from the Governor's Mansion on Nanlin Road. He had accumulated a lot of prestige in the counter-rebellion. In addition, the Liu family had vigorously developed the family over the years and had extended the family's power to the fourth route in the south.

However, the name Liu Jie was not suitable for the status of a monarch, so he changed it to Liu Jie when he came to power.

There are a lot of conditions for selecting Liu Jie, such as the selection of six major families to form a blood alliance with the Liu family. In the future, these six families will take turns to serve as the prime minister of Chu State, and the Wang family, who is descended from Wang Ping's blood, will be one of these six families. one.

Just like this, Liu Jie, who was organizing the patrol of the government soldiers a moment ago, was now dragged by the family elders into the palace of the princes that was temporarily rebuilt by the governor's office. The size of his body was measured. In less than half an hour, he would be ready. After slightly changing his clothes, he put them on him.

This process is full of comedy, but also extremely serious!
