Chapter 109 Thousands of years pass by

Time flies, time flies.

The arrival of Yue King Gou Jianjian undoubtedly aroused great interest from the people of the imperial capital.

Coupled with the preview of the most popular program "Dialogue between Ancient and Modern Times, National Treasures Have Spirits", the entire exhibition has become a hot trend.

On weekends, a large number of spectators in the imperial capital poured into the Imperial Capital Museum without hesitation to watch this rare and famous sword from more than 500 years ago.

On the major e-commerce platforms, a large number of simulated Yue Wang Goujian swords appeared in an instant, and the sales were very hot.

As the saying goes, one person attains the Tao, chickens and dogs ascend to heaven, and many shopkeepers have made a lot of money by taking advantage of this wave of timing.

And the much-anticipated and world-renowned program gradually came to the front of the stage with the passage of time.

Saturday, [-]pm.

Today's weather is even colder, and it is still drizzling, and the square aunt also turned off the speakers early, not daring to dance with the sky.

At this moment, in front of the TV, everyone gathered around the stove, looking eagerly at the screen, waiting for the program to play.

The dusty studio door was opened again.

Although Yi Ze has been able to live broadcast in real time and no longer needs the support of a studio, there is still a serious and orderly atmosphere in a professional place.

Click!

There was a crisp switch sound, and with the input of current, the studio, which had been silent for a long time, regained its vigor and vitality.

The densely packed cameras emit crimson light, like pairs of speechless eyes, silently watching the only figure in the arena.

Squeak!

With the closing of the gate, a gorgeous world appeared in the darkness.

Like a dreamy bubble, there are sweet dreams that people don't want to wake up.

In the silent studio, a story with sound is slowly unfolding.

Time, eight o'clock sharp!

when!
A melodious bell rang, breaking the original tranquility.

It was as if a stone had been dropped on the surface of the water, causing large ripples.

Following this sound came a series of melodious and soothing chime sounds.

That is the peerless sound of the drumstick hitting the bronze chime, and it is an elegant music that was only enjoyed by the princes and nobles in ancient times.

The mood of the audience seemed to be brought into a peaceful world by these melodious and soothing voices.

"What a beautiful voice, what kind of fairy instrument is this?"

"It's a chime. He used a chime in it. I was lucky enough to hear the performance of a restored chime. It's very similar to this one, but it's obviously more melodious and elegant."

"In ancient times, this was an elegant music that only the dignitaries could appreciate. Now it has entered the homes of ordinary people."

"It's so nice, I feel like playing it for a day, and I won't get tired of it."

The melodious and melodious sound of the chime bells is like the sound of a clear spring, or like jade beads falling into a plate. Every note is infiltrated into people's hearts unconsciously.

And then, the sound of the chime bell suddenly became muddy and chaotic.

It seemed that the performer was frightened and oppressed by unknown forces.

The music was in turmoil, and even the audience had to break away from that peaceful world.

"What happened? Why did you suddenly change the tone?"

"Wow, my mentality has collapsed. The music is suddenly messed up. It scared me."

"Is this describing the collapse of ritual and music?"

"It must be. Isn't the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period the period when rituals collapsed and music was destroyed?"

Wang Luhua, an expert in ancient phonetics, couldn't help clapping his hands in amazement at the moment: "It's wonderful to introduce the theme in such a simple way. Isn't this more interesting than a boring explanation of what is ritual collapse and music is bad?"

With the chaos of chime bells and music, the sound of conquest sounded, and a chaotic era began.

The emperor lost his authority, princes contended for hegemony, and a hundred schools of thought contended. A symphony of reform and conservativeness was played at this moment.

In this symphony, there are drum sounds, flute sounds, piano sounds... all kinds of different sounds are intricately intertwined with each other, converging into a chaotic song.

And at the end of this piece of music, there was a loud and clear sound of swords, and then a cold light swept across, and the era of hegemony came to an end.

That sword, the whole body is shining with cold light, the sword body is slender, and it is very noble.

It was its appearance that drew the final end to the Spring and Autumn Period that lasted for a hundred years.

The last of the Spring and Autumn Five Overlords.

Goujian, king of Yue!

And this sword is precisely his saber.

The King of Yue Goujian.

The opening animation is only a few minutes long, but it gathers the hearts of all the audience.

Above Yunmeng Daze, mist curled up, making it almost invisible.

And in this dense white mist, a calm and powerful voice came from it.

"The story of suffering from hardships and courage brings the image of a loser to strive for success. More than 500 years ago, Goujian, the then king of the Yue Kingdom, returned to his own country after experiencing several years of humiliation."

"He is no longer the young, frivolous, extravagant and lustful king. After three years of humiliation by Wu King Fucha, Goujian has become calm and cautious. There is a hot flame burning in his heart, which is his The whole belief of bearing the burden of humiliation - domination!"

"Ten years of wind and frost, ten years of snow and rain, after returning to the country, Goujian no longer indulged in wine and sex. He slept on firewood and tasted gall at night. Ten years have been like a day, and he has never relaxed for a moment, just for one day, he can defeat Wu. country, dominate the princes!"

"It's just that when Goujian tried his best, Fucha, the king of Wu, didn't stop his hegemony. The state of Chu, which had a good relationship with the state of Yue, was often attacked by the state of Wu. King Zhao of Chu fled the capital in a hurry. In order to fight against the powerful state of Wu, Chu has proposed an alliance!"

"And the price of the alliance is Yue Ji, the daughter of King Goujian of Yue, and one of the famous swords in King Yue's collection."

"That's the sword of King Goujian of Yue!"

As the voice gradually became louder, Yi Ze came out of the thick fog by boat.

A flat boat with white mist curling up, making Yi Ze even more extraordinary and refined.

And on the small boat at Yi Ze's feet, a slender and exquisite sword was lying quietly on the sword stand.

Exquisite, extraordinary, all kinds of words to describe the beautiful things in the world can be used to describe this sword.

According to legend, the King of Yue loved collecting famous swords in the world.

According to "Wu Yue Chunqiu" and "Yue Jue Shu", Gou Jian, the king of Yue, asked the swordsmith Ou Yezi to forge five precious swords, namely Zhanlu, Chunjun, Shengxie, Yuchang, and Juque. A rare sword as iron as clay.

According to the records of "Supplementary Relics": "Goujian, the king of Yue, made the workers worship the god of Kunwu with white horses and white cattle, and mined gold to cast them into the essence of the eight swords. , five startling salamanders, six Miepo, seven Quexie, and eight Zhengang."

In addition, he is also keen on collecting and collecting famous swords.Xue Zhu, a master sword appraiser at that time, was shocked when he saw the sword treasured by Goujian, saying that he had never seen this rare treasure.

We can believe that, as a prince who loves swords like his life and likes to collect swords, perhaps King Goujian of Yue really owns the most precious sword in the world.

And the most favorable evidence for all this is the undefeated Goujian sword of the Yue King that has gone through more than 500 years!
At this moment, Yi Ze turned around, and under the envious and jealous eyes of many audiences, he gently held the hilt of Yue Wang Goujian's sword, and then held the whole sword tightly in his hand.

With a calm expression on his face, he looked at the endless thick white mist. His right hand holding Yue Wang Goujian's sword stretched forward. After a brief pause, his wrist shook, and the light of the sword slanted out like water.

In an instant, the fog seemed to be cut open, allowing everyone to see the scene of the ancestors more than 500 years ago.

A figure dressed in simple clothes, described as thin, but with very deep eyes, stood in the hall.

Beside him was a beautiful woman, holding a slender sword in her hand, with a calm expression.

This is Gou Jian, with his daughter, Yue Ji.

What Yue Ji holds in her hand is the Yue King Goujian's Sword, a sword made under the supervision of Yue King Goujian himself, a true king's sword.

At this time, the Chuyue Alliance is imminent.

Faced with Wu State's pressing on Chu State step by step, King Goujian of Yue, who had been back for several years, also felt a deep crisis.

Wu Guo still possessed great strength, which made him feel a little desperate.

If it wasn't for the state of Chu standing in front of him, I'm afraid that the state of Yue that he worked so hard to build would be destroyed by the state of Wu again.

Therefore, the relationship between Chu and Yue is like lips and teeth. Gou Jian naturally understands that the Chu and Yue alliance is imminent.

However, the price of the alliance is his daughter Yue Ji and his favorite sword.

King Goujian of Yue!
Such a price was enough to make King Chu Zhao feel his sincerity, but at the same time, it also made Gou Jian heartbroken.

The ministers had been arguing for several days, and the final conclusion was bound to be decided by him today.

By donating Yue Ji and the sword, the alliance will be formed, and Chu will block most of Wu's soldiers, and it will also allow him more time to develop his strength.

However, if the covenant is rejected, the Chu State is likely to divert misfortune and focus Wu State's attention on Yue State.

After all, there are also many courtiers in the state of Chu who want to form an alliance with the powerful state of Wu, and then bully the state of Yue together.

It can be said that the choice of King Chu Zhao ultimately determined the life and death of the Yue Kingdom.

And presenting Yue Ji and Yue King Goujian Sword can greatly influence the choice of King Chu Zhao.

The success or failure of life and death depends on this hand.

"Ugh!"

In the hall, Gou Jian, the King of Yue who was dressed plainly, suddenly sighed heavily.

How could he be willing to let his daughter marry into the state of Chu and become the concubine of King Chu Zhao.

It's just that in the current situation, if we don't do this, the tragedy of Yue's destruction a few years ago will happen again.

And he, the king of Yue, will once again become Fu Chai's captive.

This time, it is unknown whether he can escape from Wu country smoothly.

Yue Ji opened her bright eyes, looked at Gou Jian's frowning face, and smiled: "Why should father be so troubled, my daughter is willing to share father's worries."

"The land of Qiangchu is a long way away. If you are a woman, once you go there, you will never be able to come back."

Gou Jian looked sadly at Yue Ji, his most beloved daughter. The father and daughter had only been reunited for a few years, and now they were separated again.

The country of Chu is vast and sparsely populated. This time, the mountains are really high and the rivers are far away. Throughout their lives, the father and daughter will never see each other again.

"Father, have you forgotten the three years of humiliation you suffered in the Wu Kingdom? Have you forgotten the sufferings suffered by the people of Yue? If you sacrifice the happiness of your daughter alone, you can let the father preserve his dignity and let the people of Yue live and work in peace. My daughter is willing to go to Mengchu."

Yue Ji's hand holding Yue King Goujian's sword trembled slightly.

Yes, who wants to leave their hometown and go to a place that they are completely unfamiliar with?
Who wants to leave their homeland and never return it for life?

However, if she doesn't go, in the future when Wu's army will come to suppress the land, not only will her father King Goujian suffer humiliation again, but even the people in Yuedi will suffer another death.

Yue Ji's words directly hit the deepest obsession in Gou Jian's heart without any accident.

That tragic failure, those three years of humiliating life, all became an indelible mark in his heart.

All of this made him not hesitate to give up his good life in the past, and endure hardships, just to wipe out the country of Wu one day!
Now, Yue Ji's voice of questioning is like Hong Zhong Dalu, constantly ringing in his ears.

Have you forgotten the fiasco of yesteryear?
Have you forgotten those three years of humiliation?

Goujian, king of Yue, had red eyes and roared in a low voice: "I have never forgotten, I have never forgotten!"

His heart is extremely painful, but at this moment Yue Ji's words are extremely realistic.

If it is not allied with Chu, the tragedy will be staged again; if it is not allied with Chu, the efforts of several years will be in vain.

"Daughter, you should think about it!"

King Goujian of Yue took a deep breath to calm down his inner emotions. He didn't say much, but asked again.

As for Yue Ji, it was still the same answer: "For the sake of Yue, my daughter is willing to ally with Chu!"

"That's it, Meng Chu!"

Once an order is given, there is no room for regret.

Yue Ji took the Yue King Goujian sword and embarked on a road of alliance with Chu.

And the direction of history is just as Goujian expected.

In ten years, he endured hardships and tasted courage, and finally defeated the state of Wu, becoming the last overlord in the Spring and Autumn Period.

However, Yue Ji and Yue King Gou Jianjian failed to set foot in their homeland throughout their lives.

Until the archaeological discovery by later generations, the King Goujian Sword of Yue had already been buried underground with the nobles of Chu State for thousands of years.

At this moment, on Yunmengze, the mist shrouded again.

Yi Ze held the Yue King Goujian sword in his hand, and there was a look of sigh in his eyes.

In front of the country and his daughter's sword, King Gou Jian finally chose the country.

As a monarch, he is, without a doubt, qualified.

But as the former owner of Yue King Goujianjian, he is undoubtedly helpless and humble.

Thousands of years have passed, and Goujian, the king of Yue who was originally the overlord, and even the entire Yue country have disappeared in the long river of history.

And this Yue King Goujian sword, after thousands of years, is still as sharp as before, without any change.

Yi Ze looked at the bright and sharp sword in his hand, smiled, and gently placed it back on the sword stand.

The story of the overlord and the sword is over, but one of the core of the story has still not appeared in front of the audience.

And Yi Ze, what he has to do at this moment is to wake up the spirit of the national treasure sleeping in the Yue King Gou Jian's sword!
He has felt it, it is about to wake up!
……

 I have something to do today, let's make a wave tomorrow
