I Have Awakened The Deduction System

210 Chapter 210, Back to the Capital

“Master, do you think the treasure Big Sister mentioned is the one we were talking about?” Lia asked curiously after the princess royal left.

“I’m not sure, but it should be very important. Don’t even think about the treasure! It’s not a good thing for you!” He Chuan knew the importance of this treasure, but he would not tell Lia about it.

He definitely couldn’t hand it over to her.

Since this thing was carved with the geographical location of the Zhou Dynasty, it was very likely to be related to the fate of the country.

Even if Lia obtained it, she would not be able to protect it with her life.

So it was better for her to stay away from right and wrong, be a Princess in peace, and wait for the right time to fight for the position of Khan.

“I’m just a little curious. If it were really taken away, I’d be happy too.” Lia was not too interested in the treasure now. After all, she had to pretend she did not want to fight for the throne.

...

The group rested for two days in Yangzhou City before heading to the capital.

In the southeast, San Wu’s capital, Qian Tang, had been prosperous since ancient times. Smokey willows, wind curtains, and emerald curtains, hundreds of thousands of trees around the embankment and sand, raging waves rolling in frost and snow, the sky has no boundaries. Pearls are listed in the market, and households are full of Luoqi, competing for luxury. Wavy lake accumulated at peak Qingjia. There are three autumn laurels, and ten miles of lotus flowers. The Qiang pipe makes clear, the diamond song floods the night, and the fishing man and the lotus child playfully. Thousands of horsemen embrace the high teeth. Listen to the xiao and drums and enjoy the smoke. In the future, I will return to phoenix pond to enjoy the beautiful scenery.

The prosperity of the capital was more evident than that of Yangzhou!

This made the Xiongnu people finally understand why the tribes in the outer regions were so unwilling to give up on the Central Plains.

Only by living in the bustling capital could one feel the true respect of the people.

The Emperor of the Zhou Dynasty was a true Emperor.

General Qin Yuntian personally led a group of people to welcome them.

“The capital is currently under martial law. Please obey the laws of our Zhou Dynasty. If anyone dares to disobey, don’t blame me for not showing any mercy. His Majesty will meet you tomorrow!” As the commander of the Imperial Army in the capital, Qin Yuntian naturally did not care about the Princes and Princesses of the grassland tribes.

They were just a barbarian from the outer realm.

Moreover, the entire capital was filled with martial arts practitioners, so they were even more unfriendly to people from the outer realms.

The First Prince and the others did not dare to voice their anger, and could only keep their depression in their hearts.

After He Chuan and Cai Lian returned to their room, he waved his hand to set up a barrier and immediately disappeared.

When they reappeared, the two of them had already returned to the palace.

Everything in the Library Pavilion was so familiar, and nothing had changed.

Cai Lian looked at the familiar scene and was so moved that she shed tears.

“You’re already so old, but you’re still a cry baby. If you’re reluctant to leave, you can stay.” He Chuan rubbed Cai Lian’s little head.

“Young Master, I’m just happy. I’ll go wherever you go.” Cai Lian didn’t care if she was in the palace or not.

As long as she could stay by He Chuan’s side, it would be fine.

Otherwise, it would be meaningless for her to live alone in the palace.

Now, she was just reminiscing.

“You can reminisce here first; I’m going to meet someone!” after He Chuan finished speaking, he disappeared.

In the Imperial Study.

As the Empress, Changning was handling official business.

When she heard that He Chuan was coming back, she was very excited.

After all, He Chuan was the child’s father. Although they didn’t spend much time together in the later stages, they still had a strong relationship.

Other than her Emperor Father, He Chuan was the person she admired the most in her life.

The story was a little unexpected, but they still came together.

The situation in various places was stable now. Those who secretly plotted rebellions against the Great Zhou had all been executed.

Under Fang Yuanqing’s suggestion, she held another Imperial Examination in the country and sealed the mouths of the scholars.

The scholars now had a very good impression of Empress Changning.

In the beginning, everyone thought that it was a joke for a woman to be the Emperor, and there were always people who jumped out to object.

After a series of reformations and ruthless methods, the world’s view of Empress Changning changed.

Occasionally, there would be objections, but they were quickly suppressed.

As for Cheng’an, he was currently living a very carefree life. He no longer cared about the matters of the Great Zhou and spent his days in the wind and snow, while taking care of the Empress Dowager.

This also made everyone feel at ease. After all, Cheng’an liked his current life. It was fine as long as he wouldn’t cause any trouble at the top.

The Great Zhou Dynasty was still the most important in everything!

The space suddenly twisted and He Chuan’s figure appeared in the Imperial Study.

“Husband!” Changning stood up happily with a surprised expression on her face.

“You’ve worked hard!” He Chuan caressed her pretty face. In fact, he and Changning were more like family and nothing else.

But now, looking at Empress Changning’s bulging belly, he couldn’t help but sigh.

Changning leaned into his arms and felt a moment of peace.

As a woman, she naturally hoped that He Chuan would be by her side.

“The entire capital is not at peace right now. I’m very happy that Husband is back!” Empress Changning leaned into He Chuan’s arms, her heart filled with happiness.

“Actually, the Martial Arts Conference is not the key. The key is the fight between the gods and demons for the treasures in the Central Plains.” He Chuan took out the bronze fragment.

The word ‘Yangzhou’ on the bronze fragment was very eye-catching.

Empress Changning touched the two carved words.

After Great Yu established the Xia Dynasty, he divided many vassal states among his former Princes and grandsons. As time passed, some vassals were inevitably disloyal.

In order to inspect how many vassal states there were in the world and to maintain the relationship between the Xia Dynasty and the vassal states, the Great Yu decided to hold a vassal meeting. As it was the time when the various Dukes came to court, Xia Yu took the opportunity to hold the sacrificial ceremony, and the Dukes stayed in Yangcheng to help. When it was time for the ritual, the Great Yu knelt on the ground and prayed deeply.

The officiant recited the congratulatory words loudly, and all the Dukes listened carefully. The first half was to pray for the country and the people, and the second half says the world was given to Shun and it would be passed on to virtuous people in the future, and that it was not based on family line.

With the words of the Vice-Saint, I’ve found out that only Elder Tao is wise and has made great achievements. I recommend him to the Emperor and pray for his permission to stop the war. I look forward to your prayers.

After the ceremony, the vassals dispersed and gathered again.

Everyone was deeply dissatisfied with the Great Yu.

After the Great Yu suburban worship, there were as many as 33 countries that left.

In terms of calculations, most of the unconvinced countries were in the southeast.

As a result, the Great Yu decided to hold a vassal meeting at Mountain Tu, which was located to the southeast of yang city, to reflect on his mistakes.

After the meeting at Mountain Tu, the vassals happily split up.

In order to show their respect, the various Dukes often came to Yang City to offer “gold” or “bronze.”

Later on, the amount of copper offered by the nine states increased year after year, and the Great Yu remembered that the Yellow Emperor of the Xuanyuan Clan had successfully cast a cauldron.

In order to commemorate the Mountain Tu meeting, they were prepared to use the gold that the various dukes had given to create the nine prefectures’ cauldron.

However, to avoid being blamed by the feudal vassals, the Great Yu decided after careful consideration that the tributes from each state would be used to forge the cauldron of that state, and the situation of the mountains and rivers in that state would be cast on the cauldron.
