[Twelve Kingdoms] The way back

Zhao Yang expected that Yuan Ya would not be able to convince Zai Zhong, since there had been problems, the law had to be amended. Yuan Ya’s insistence was only because he wanted to maintain the state of his father when he was there, but he blindly educated the prisoners instead of Thinking about it from the prisoner's own point of view, he couldn't stand up in this matter at all.Simply put, a madman, how do you teach him to be normal.

On the second day, Zai Zuo made a decision and wrote a letter, and Zhaoyang let go after stamping the imperial seal.

I heard from Qingshan that the first pardon is indeed effective in curbing the abuse of the death penalty, and the states have also begun to implement new laws.

It can only be said that the status of Jade Throne in the hearts of the common people must never be underestimated.

"This is from Daozhou." Qingshan stretched out his hand and handed over the memorial.

Zhaoyang was busy looking at the memorial in his hands, and reached out to pick it up without raising his head, but accidentally touched Qingshan's hand when he didn't receive the memorial.

Zhaoyang's hand stopped in mid-air awkwardly, she raised her head and took the playbook: "Sorry, I didn't pay attention"

"I don't care about this." Qingshan withdrew his hand naturally.

Zhaoyang's eyes fell with Qingshan's hand, and he lowered his head and asked, "Have you practiced martial arts?" Qingshan's palm has calluses, and that position can only be left when holding a sword for a long time.

Qingshan said "hmm", "When I first entered the government, I was relatively free. I asked Lulin to teach me some self-defense skills in my free time, and I got used to practicing a few times every day."

Zhaoyang nodded, said "it's good to know a little martial arts" and stopped asking.

As soon as Qingshan returned to his seat and sat down, Zhaoyang gasped, then laughed softly, "What's the matter?" Qingshan asked.

"Only Daozhou has honestly reported the number of deaths. I don't know if the Daozhou Marquis is too honest or the Mu uncle is too powerful."

Although Changyi asked the states to count the number of deaths and report them, but because there were too many people who died, countless people died at the hands of demons.In order to leave a good impression in Wang's heart, all states submitted their numbers.Even though Chang Yi knew it, there was nothing he could do about it. After all, this number was not easy to count, so they could have retreated with this reason.

And to put it bluntly, the dead are all dead. What's the point of spending manpower and financial resources to count these figures? Is there a silent mourning for the figures?If I have time to spare, I might as well save more people and help those living in this world.

So apart from Junzhou, where Yingli is located, only Daozhou has reported the real death toll.

"The Marquis of Daozhou is from He Su." Qingshan was not surprised at all, and said in a calm tone while serving tea.

Zhaoyang suppressed his smile: "How do you know?"

"It's not just me who knows, anyone who works in the government knows that when He Su forced his position, the Marquis of Daozhou stood behind him. Daozhou is the closest to Shuozhou. Once Daozhou raises troops, no other state can come over in time." Reinforcements, plus Zai Zuo's acquiescence, Junzhou and Maozhou blocked in the middle. The big Sikou can only accept his fate." Seeing Zhaoyang frowning slightly, Qingshan continued to explain, "Yingli just took office at that time, plus the last It's normal for him not to know that there was no real mobilization." Qingshan knew that the information Zhaoyang had now was nothing more than Yingli.So it is inevitable that there will be omissions. After all, Yingli was imprisoned for a year. After she was released, she immediately left Neichao and rushed to Junzhou to take office.

That is to say, Daozhou Hou is not honest but confident. His back is backed by the Grand Tutor of the Supervisory State. However, the matter of the Zhouhou is not in a hurry now. Zhaoyang put down the memorial, raised his hand above his head, and stretched Body: "Marquis of Daozhou can be regarded as a three-time veteran."

"He is not only a three-time veteran, but there is one thing you may not know about Zhaoyang, the former King Liu used to work under Hezhou Hou," Qingshan said.

Zhaoyang was stunned for a moment, then the corner of his mouth curled up, and he leaned his head on his raised right hand: "No wonder." If she had helped Lu Feng, she would not have withdrawn from Daozhou Hou due to emotion and reason. "Speaking of which, have you checked out Zhu Zhang's details?"

She once asked Liu Qi in detail about what happened to him from the time he left Fenhua Palace until he found her.She always felt that her murder in Xuanying Palace had something to do with Zhu Zhang.But Zhu Zhang had an alibi, he was with Liu Qi at that time, and she couldn't find any evidence.

"He is a member of Da Si Kou." Qingshan paused, and suggested: "Do you need me to transfer him away from Taifu?"

"No need." Zhaoyang shook his head, "So as not to startle the snake."

"Okay." Qingshan nodded in response

"Let's stop here for today." Zhaoyang got up and looked out the window, "It's getting late, you should go back first."

The green shirt cupped his hands: "The minister resigns."

After Qingshan left, Zhaoyang recruited Si Qiu to help her fall asleep.Tomorrow is the enthronement ceremony, and finally we can see them again.Zhaoyang, who thought so, fell asleep after a while.

Waking up Zhaoyang the next day was the first ray of sunshine in the morning, rubbed his eyes, and just lifted the quilt and got out of bed.The Si Qius pushed the door in with their clothes and washing things in their hands.

Zhaoyang yawned and opened his hands, and several Si Qiu stepped forward to help her put on clothes one by one.Because it is an enthronement ceremony, it is necessary to dress up to attend.Daqiu is the king's first dress, Zhang Ling is the symbol of the highest status, and the black dress is embroidered with extremely luxurious embroidery-dragon.Zhaoyang didn't know how many pieces he was wearing inside and out, Zhaoyang just felt that wearing such a suit of clothes made it difficult for him to even breathe, which was really terrible.

Qinglu felt Zhaoyang's preferences by herself, and planned that they were all gorgeous and luxurious jewelry.Zhaoyang looked at the rouge, gouache, crown and hair accessories lined up beside her, guessing that it would not be possible to fix it in an hour, so he let the Si Qius work up and down, staring at the mirror and staring blankly.

From frugality to extravagance, she now opens her mouth for food and stretches out her hands for clothes.In the beginning, she was uncomfortable with being served by her, but within a month she was able to accept it calmly.The habit of waking up early that I had developed, but because I often stay up late and reverse the jet lag, I started to have a tendency to stay in bed.

She thought she wouldn't like all of this, but in fact she had already enjoyed the responsibility brought by the Jade Throne, as well as the power and money that came with it.She couldn't refuse, and couldn't refuse.In the final analysis, she is just an ordinary person, walking around in this world of luxury and money, if one is not careful, she will lose herself.

"My lord? My lord?" Qinglu's call brought back Zhaoyang's thoughts, and Zhaoyang came back to his senses.

"what?"

"My lord, it's ready." Qinglu stepped aside and knelt on the ground: "The auspicious time has come, Taifu is already waiting outside."

It was a long road in the palace, with kneeling guards on both sides, Zhaoyang walking in the middle, followed by Liu Qi, the atmosphere was solemn and solemn.

Zhaoyang tilted her head and said in a low voice: "Liu Qi, come forward." Seeing Liu Qi's hesitation, she repeated, "Come forward, Liu Qi." Until Liu Qi took a few steps forward, Zhaoyang turned his head with a smile and stopped talking.

Since they are half of each other, how can we not bear it together.The moment he walked out of the palace, his sight suddenly widened. Standing neatly at the foot of the white stone steps were imperial soldiers in black armor and officials in black official uniforms, with black dragon flags fluttering in the wind.The hall square between the state mansion and the main hall for the celebration was crowded with people. When they saw Zhaoyang appearing, they cheered happily. The sound came from a distance and reached Zhaoyang's ears.

Hearing the cheers of the people, Zhaoyang only felt that the burden on his shoulders was heavier.

After completing the enthronement ceremony, Zhaoyang immediately returned to the palace.Seeing a few people in the hall, he smiled: "I have come from a long way, I have worked hard all the way, King Yan, King Yantai, King Gong and King Jing."

Just to say hello, Zhaoyang was busy to meet the envoys from other countries, King Yan and the others would have special officials to welcome distinguished guests.Only after Zhaoyang finished seeing them can the envoys go to them again.

It was the prince and princess of the kingdom who came to the country. The princess was a very lively girl. As for the prince, his appearance made her feel a little familiar, but she didn't know where this familiarity came from.Because there were a lot of people to be interviewed, after receiving the congratulatory gifts, they were not able to chat a few more words.

The one who came from Gongguo was Gongqi, a simple-looking unicorn, who left after giving the congratulatory gift, and the rest were some officials from other countries.

King Yan and his party were arranged in the inner hall. When Zhaoyang entered, they were drinking tea and chatting.Seeing her come in, get up and say hello to her.Zhaoyang stepped forward and returned the salutes one by one. In the spirit of respecting the old and loving the young, he made a gesture of invitation to Shang Long, "King Yan, please take your seat."

Shang Long stood still, and said with a straight look: "You are the host, and I am the guest. King Liu, take your seat."

Zhaoyang was also polite, and sat on it with his feet up.After everyone was seated, Shang Long introduced to Zhaoyang, "This is King Jing, Chizi."

Babies?Ah, she remembered, Shang Long once said that King Jing is the fetal fruit, Chizi is her name here.As the name suggests, King Jing has long red hair and looks 17.8 years old.It is said that she quelled the civil strife and cleared the internal court by herself.But it's not easy for a high school student to be able to do this.

Zhaoyang smiled back, "Hi, King Jing."

Yangzi came here this time at the invitation of King Yan. King Yan wanted to introduce King Liu to her, saying that the two of them would definitely get along.But she looked at Liu Wang, who was sitting in the upper position, with a calm and elegant temperament in every gesture, as if the king was superior.She became suspicious of King Yeon's claim that she was compatible with each other.

And just as she was thinking this way, King Liu waved his hand to get the maids to back down.Immediately afterwards, she got up and walked in front of King Gong, patted King Gong on the shoulder very boldly, and said, "Hey, Lu Qing, long time no see!"

King Gong replied without paying attention: "Long time no see, don't come here without any problems."

This change is too fast!
