After handing the girl to Bing'er, Ouyang Shuo went to entertain the other guests. What surprised Ouyang Shuo was that Battle Wolf actually came to Shanhai City a day earlier.
"Brother Ouyang, congratulations!"
Battle Wolf was straightforward and efficient, but it was hard to tell from his face.
Ouyang Shuo naturally welcomed him warmly and said with a smile, "Brother Battle Wolf, please!"
The two arrived at the hostel, and Battle Wolf took the initiative to talk to Ouyang Shuo alone. Ouyang Shuo knew that Battle Wolf must have something to do for him to come early, so he naturally did not refuse.
The two talked for less than 20 minutes in the room, but Battle Wolf's words made Ouyang Shuo bewildered. When Ouyang Shuo walked out of the hostel, his expression was indescribably strange.
"It's true."
Ouyang Shuo wanted to say something, but he did not know what to say, and could only laugh and shake his head.
By 5pm, all the invited guests had arrived, and it could be said to be full. At 7pm, Ouyang Shuo brought Song Jia and Bing'er to the banquet hall of the hostel to entertain the guests.
The banquet was very lively and the atmosphere was very lively.
But under the liveliness, there were also undercurrents. This time, the guests included Shanhai City's staunch allies, enemies, neutral forces, and even foreign forces. It could be said to be a mix of good and bad people.
Apart from the relationship with Shanhai City, the relationship between the guests was also quite subtle. For example, there were sparks between Battle Wolf and the Tyrant of Western Chu, Xiang Yu. These two were fighting for the leadership of the eastern region, and it was not peaceful recently.
When the invited neutral lords saw Battle Wolf, they could not help but look away. They had hesitated before, but in the end, they still chose to come to Shanhai City.
The lords' eyes were bright, and from the looks of it, even if [Yan Huang Alliance] had [Silver Hand] as their backing, at least in the China region, [Yan Huang Alliance] could not do anything to Shanhai City.
Since that was the case, how could they follow in the footsteps of the Seeking Dragon and be used as pawns?
With such a group of people gathered together, it was easy to imagine what kind of chemical reaction would occur.
The Queen of Atlantis, Kalia, became the center of attention, second only to Ouyang Shuo. Who didn't know that Shanhai City's aerial team came from Atlantis?
If they could have a relationship with this queen, it would be better than anything. Even the Mediterranean Sea Lord came to Shanhai City to congratulate?!
Adding Kalia's stunning appearance, it was inevitable that a group of male lords gathered around her.
Other than Kalia, the Yan Huang tribe and Shang tribe also attracted a group of lords. The disappearance of the three ancient tribes had piqued the curiosity of players in the outside world.
It was just that the people from the three great ceremonial groups turned a blind eye to the other lords' probing. It seemed that the three tribes did not intend to take this opportunity to come out of the mountains. Living in seclusion was still their established strategy.
Seeing this, the lords could only return resentfully.
The Shan City Wolf to Chu City. and the Shan City's Xiang City, Xiang City. Other than the War Wolves, the other lords didn't have any relations with West Chu, so naturally they didn't need to get close.
Secondly, West Chu's strongest point was their army, but their territory construction was lacking, there was nothing special about it. Yang, Chu was Yang Yang Country to be, the Yang, he Yang, Xiang City 'Wolf, Yang Zhou City, Yang Xiang City, Yang, and Xiang Shan.
Ouyang Shuo looked at the crowd. No matter who it was, as long as they came, they were Shanhai City's friends.
Ouyang Shuo naturally looked at everyone with an aloof attitude. No matter who it was, as long as they came to congratulate him, they would be a friend of Shanhai City. At least in the coal trade, Xiang Yu was very cooperative.
At least in the coal trade, Xiang Yu was very cooperative.
As a result, the guests and the host were happy.
The banquet ended at around 8: 30.
Some lords suggested a night tour of Shanhai City, while others continued the unfinished business of the banquet. It was very lively. What they didn't know was that the entire hostel was under the surveillance of the Shanhai Guards.
Gaia Fourth Year, April 18th, Shanhai City.
The rebuilt Summer Palace covered the south of Royal City, taking up half of Royal City's area. In the middle of the Summer Palace was a palace complex built with the Protectorate of Southern Border as the foundation. It was large, majestic, and magnificent.
The Protectorate of Southern Border's back garden extended to the east and west. It had been expanded into the Imperial Garden, with exotic flowers and plants competing with each other. The amusement park in the Imperial Garden had been expanded several times. It occupied a hundred acres and was spectacular.
The home of the lucky beast, Kiyi, and the guardian beast, Murphy, were both in the Imperial Garden.
On the west side was the Yamen Garden, which was expanded from the Four General Bureaus. It looked very imposing. On the east side was the Altar of Heaven, with the Altar of Earth, the Temple of the Yellow Emperor, the Civil and Martial Temples, and a row of hidden buildings.
The Temple of the Yellow Emperor was slightly different. On the two sides of the statue of the Yellow Emperor, statues of the Yan Emperor and Xia Yu were added to show that the Great Xia Dynasty originated from the Yan and Huang Emperors.
As such, the Temple of the Yellow Emperor was officially renamed as the Ancestral Temple of the Great Xia Dynasty.
Yesterday, Ouyang Shuo had sent two cabinet ministers, Jiang Shang and Kou Zhun, to the Ancestral Temple to comfort Emperor Xia. This was to show that Shanhai City would inherit the Great Xia Dynasty and establish a new dynasty in the wilderness.
Today, Ouyang Shuo was going to formally worship the Ancestral Temple.
The sky was getting brighter. Purple clouds appeared in the east, and the slightly dim moon was still hanging high in the sky.
The weather was good. It was another sunny day.
Outside the Wuji Palace, Xu Chu was leading a row of guards, while Zi Su was leading a group of female officials. They were all waiting. The incense from the incense burner in front of the palace permeated the courtyard.
"Your Majesty, the auspicious time has arrived!"
A female official shouted. As soon as she finished speaking, the sound of bamboo flutes could be heard.
In the Wuji Palace, Ouyang Shuo had been bathing and burning incense since early in the morning under the care of the female officials. He did not eat or drink. When he heard the shout, he immediately walked out of the main hall.
Ouyang Shuo was wearing a bright yellow imperial robe. There were twelve crowns on it, and a ribbon was tied to his chin. His ears were drooping, and he looked very elegant. He walked down the stairs and entered the imperial carriage. He closed his eyes and sat in the imperial carriage without saying a word.
In history, the Great Xia Dynasty had the Wood Virtue. Although Ouyang Shuo inherited the Great Xia Dynasty, he did not want to use the Five Virtues. He used Xia Yu's flood control as an opportunity to derive the meaning of "Earth restrains water", and defined the new Great Xia Dynasty as the Earth Virtue.
This also announced the Great Xia Dynasty's innovation in the wilderness, and its intention to open up new territories.
The Earth Virtue was one of the Five Virtues of the Yellow Emperor. Therefore, Ouyang Shuo was wearing a bright yellow imperial robe.
"Dang!" The sound of the bell resounded through the nine heavens. The official shouted, "Set off!"
? The sound of the golden bell, the harmonizing sound of the harp, the chimes, and the entire imperial carriage was steadily lifted. The nine layers of vermillion gates opened one after another. The moment they stepped out of the palace, they were greeted by the cheers of a thousand years.
"Long live our Majesty, long live our Majesty!"
Under the escort of the guards, they left King City. Everyone on the streets, regardless of whether they were commoners or officials, wise or foolish, old or young, willing or unwilling, had flowers and incense placed in front of their doors. Their entire families, old and young, came out. When they saw the imperial entourage coming from afar, they all cheered and danced, kneeling to pay their respects.
Ouyang Shuo sat motionlessly. Whether it was a white-haired old man or a young child, they all knelt by his side and shouted three times. With such heavenly might, it was no wonder why there were so many dissolute people in the past and present who fought their entire lives for the throne.
At this moment, the imperial carriage came out of the great bridge in the inner city. The bridge was very high, and looking down from above, one could see the river flowing below. The mansions of the nobles, generals, officials, and wealthy citizens stood in great numbers, and every household had incense placed in front of them.
Ouyang Shuo looked down with mixed feelings in his heart.
After ascending to the throne, he first worshipped the Altar of Heaven and then the Altar of Earth. The Altar of Heaven was the most important.
The Altar of Heaven was nine zhang and nine chi. The bottom was made of yellow soil, and the top was made of white marble. It was as smooth as a mirror. The civil and military officials stood on both sides according to their ranks and bowed to welcome the Majesty.
The carriage landed on the ground and Ouyang Shuo walked out with his hands behind his back. Immediately, the officials knelt on the ground.
Ouyang Shuo slowly walked up. The wind blew against his robe, and the twelve feathers on his robe clattered loudly.
Ouyang Shuo stood on the stage and personally read the funeral rites.
? "The Imperial Heavens and the Empress of the Earth have been decreed by the Dao. I do not dare to accept such a title, but today, in the wilderness, it is said to be a divine artifact. It cannot remain empty for long, and a new system must be established. Although I am of little virtue, I do not dare to defy the will of the Heavens. I will establish the Xia Dynasty in the world, and establish the Primordial Divine Martial to inform the Heavens!"
As soon as these words were said, the next words were: "Long live, long live, long live!"
Ouyang Shuo then took out a special imperial edict and picked up a special brush, dipping it in the prepared cinnabar. This cinnabar was mixed with Ouyang Shuo's blood and was connected to his blood.
Ouyang Shuo picked up the brush and wrote five big words on the imperial edict: "Great Xia Dynasty, establish!"
In an instant, the imperial edict soared into the sky.
Countless light spots flew up from the ground and converged into a river, pouring into the imperial edict. This was the convergence of the fate of the people in the territory. The imperial edict received a great force and quickly expanded, shooting up into the sky.
The imperial edict turned into a canopy, covering the sky and the sun.
At the same time, the spiritual energy within a thousand miles converged towards the imperial edict and poured into it. The imperial edict shone with a golden light, white fate hung upside down, and green spiritual energy rose.
The three colors of gold, green, and white intertwined, and the imperial edict could no longer be seen.
Suddenly, there was a loud "boom", and the sky exploded. The imperial edict that was like a canopy suddenly shrank inwards, constantly compressing and changing. When the three colors of gold, green, and white dissipated, a large bronze cauldron appeared in the sky.
This cauldron was simple and dignified, and its container was unfathomable.
At this time, the three colors of gold, green, and white surged and roared like a vast ocean, once again pouring into the cauldron. In just a moment, a red sun gradually rose, emitting billions of red lights, and inside it was the word "Xia".
The white clouds in the sky dispersed, and a huge purple dragon that stretched for thousands of miles appeared.
The huge dragon let out a long roar, summoning the wind and summoning the rain. It raised its head, and its figure changed, diving towards the large cauldron. As it opened its mouth, the sun that contained the word "Xia" rose from the large cauldron.
With a "boom", the large cauldron connected the sky, and countless stars immediately shone down, dazzling.
After a while, the huge purple dragon dived down from the starry sky, and its figure gradually shrank, entering the cauldron. In an instant, a huge purple dragon relief appeared on the body of the cauldron, and it surrounded the body of the cauldron.
