Chapter 345

When King Zhou heard this, he thought it was reasonable, so he said, "what Aiqing said is very true." then he turned his head and said to the middle officer, "the leaders of xuansi town went to the temple to worship, and the rest of the people paid a tribute outside the Meridian Gate."

After hearing the imperial edict, the princes of the eight hundred towns outside the gate of noon shouted a congratulation on the mountain outside the gate of noon. The leaders of the four towns in the East, South, West and North were in uniform, shook Yupei gently, entered the gate of noon, crossed the Jiulong bridge to Danlong. After paying homage to the mountain, they fell down in front of the hall and waited for emperor Xin's decree.

After King Zhou asked the four to get up, they asked about folk customs and customs. The four answered in order. King Zhou was overjoyed at the speech and ordered Prime Minister Shang Rong and Yabi to treat each other at the banquet in the Xianqing hall. The four ministers kowtowed and thanked, and left Danlong to Xianqing hall to have a banquet.

After King Zhou retired, he summoned Fei Zhong and you hun and asked, "the day before yesterday, I wanted to order the four princes to offer beautiful women, but I was blocked by Prime Minister Shang Rong. Now I want to mention it again. Do you think it's good?"

Fei Zhong and you hun looked at each other and came forward and said, "Your Majesty has promised the old Prime Minister not to conduct beauty contests a few days ago. If the old story is mentioned again today, it will inevitably make people feel that your majesty is not enough to win the trust of his subjects. I think it is absolutely forbidden."

The two men carefully looked at the emperor King Zhou and said, "I heard that Su Hu, the Hou of Jizhou, has a woman with beautiful color, natural appearance and leisure. If you choose to enter the palace curtain and serve around, you can be a military envoy. If you choose a daughter of one person, you won't disturb the people all over the world. It's not moving. Even the old prime minister has nothing to say."

Fei Zhong and you hun are angry that Su Hu refuses to bribe them, so they deliberately punish Su Hu. They think that Su Hu is upright and will not send their daughter to the palace. At that time, the son of heaven will be angry and Su Hu's head will not be protected, which can be regarded as a reward for Su Hu's disrespect.

Emperor Xin was delighted when he heard what Fei Zhong and you hun said, and immediately invited Su Hu into the palace to discuss the matter.

The result was exactly what Fei Zhong and you hun thought, but Su Hu was unwilling to send his daughter to the palace and said to King Zhou in a harsh voice: "When I heard that you are virtuous and diligent, the people will be satisfied, the scenery will follow, and the wealth of heaven will end forever. In the past, there was a loss of government and a lack of wine and lust in summer. Only my ancestors did not make any noise and lust, did not cultivate goods and wealth, and loved the people can replace Xia. Now your majesty is the way to defeat by imitating the king of Xia regardless of the ancestral family law. Moreover, if people love sex, they will subvert the country, rivers and mountains; if Qing officials love sex, they will destroy the ancestral temple and scholars If ordinary people love sex, they will kill the thief. You are the standard of your officials. If you don't follow the Tao, your officials will turn it into a traitor, and your friends will compare it to a traitor. It's still a matter of patience in the world. I'm afraid your majesty will disorder the foundation of the merchant for more than 600 years. "
