Ni Heng still didn't give up and asked again and again. As he spoke, his words became sarcastic and sarcastic at Xu Yue.

The disciples of Xu Yue who were attending the service were furious and rolled up their sleeves to fight against Ni Heng. Xu Yue was very calm and waved his hand to signal the disciples to be calm and said slowly: "Is it the way of heaven or the situation in the first place?"

Ni Heng did not think. "Nature is the way of heaven before, and there is a place where heaven can be born."

"Well, is there many stars in the sky or many people on the earth?"

"This..." Ni Heng was a little confused. Who had calculated these things without any problem? He thought about it carefully. "It should be... there are more stars in the sky."

Xu Yue nodded. "Then I have a clear conscience."

Ni Heng was slightly stunned, then reacted, speechless. Sun Ce smiled and said to Xun Yu: "It can be seen that words are all minor ways, and true knowledge is the great way. People must not put the cart before the horse, otherwise they will inevitably bring shame to themselves."

Xun Yu held back his laughter and nodded in agreement, but he was unwilling to take advantage of the situation and said, "The king respects the way of heaven, advocates the general principles, and governs with pride, which is truly a blessing for the world."

Sun Ce laughed. "Yes, I hope the doctor will learn from Qin and create a new etiquette that will allow the king and his ministers to get their own interests as soon as possible. For such a thing, there is no need to wait for Jia Sheng and Dong Sheng to postpone it for decades."

Xun Yu's heart moved and then bowed and bowed. "Yu Ding's dull power will live up to the king's expectations."

Ni Heng could hear clearly from the side, glanced at Xun Yu, curled his lips, and wanted to say something, but he still didn't say anything.

After lingering at the observatory for a long time, Sun Ce set off and returned to Tangshan. Xun Yu and Ni Heng accompanied Sun Ce all the way. When they arrived at the foot of the mountain, they were about to get on the car. Xun Yu took two steps and stood in front of Sun Ce.

"Your Majesty, I have something that I can't figure out. I hope you can give me some advice."

"Doctor, come and listen."

"The king does not believe in the destiny of heaven, but believes in the hearts of the people. The hearts of the people are established. The hearts of the people are changeable and easy to be used by people. What if one day there are Tianhe and others, and they will threaten the public's opinion and occupy the magpie's nest, what will happen?"

Sun Ce tilted his head, looked at Xun Yu, and laughed silently. Xun Yu endured it for a long time and finally asked this sentence. It can be seen that he is really ready to do something big. If he solves this problem, the rest is not a big deal, and no matter how difficult it is, there will be a solution.

"This kind of thing needs to be divided into two situations." Sun Ce withdrew his gaze and said lightly: "One is that this person can really represent the public's opinion. Then, my Sun family might as well give up the virtuous and return to the city. It is better than meeting each other with swords and weapons; the other is that this person cannot represent the public's opinion, it is just a false statement. Then the etiquette made by the doctor must be prevented and not let Wang Mang and others take advantage of the loopholes. What do you think?"

Xun Yu thought about something, took a slight head, took a step back, and bowed to the end. "Thank you, the king."

"Doctor, work hard!" Sun Ce gave a tribute and stepped into the car. Guo Wu came over, closed the car door, and the carriage left.

Xun Yu stood by the roadside, looking at the convoy gradually fading away, and sighed softly.

Ni Heng walked over, looked at Xun Yu, and spoke with sarcasm. "Have you the answer?"

"Although it's not specific, I know what to do."

"Speak and listen."

"No hurry." Xun Yu walked towards his carriage, straightening his back. He raised his sleeves and said loudly: "The king has not yet stood up this year. Even if he abdicated at the age of 65, there will be thirty-seven years left, which is enough for me to make a new gift."

Ni Heng thought about it and couldn't help laughing. He stepped over and chased after him. "Xun Wenruo, I have a plan, do you want to hear it?"

Xun Yu stopped and turned to look at Ni Heng. "If Zhengping had any good words, Yu would naturally not be able to ask for it. He should treat him with good tea. Please!"

——

After meeting at the Observatory, Xun Yu opened up his mind, promoted the rituals quickly, and quickly took out the first draft and submitted it to the ministers for discussion.

There were many rituals in the new dynasty. The most important point was to sacrifice to the heavens to show the power of the king. However, Sun Ce stated that he did not believe in the destiny of heaven. A large part of the reason why Xun Yu had not made any progress before was that he could not solve this problem.

Now, Xun Yu has retained the ceremony of offering sacrifices to heaven, but has changed the meaning of offering sacrifices to nature, advocated the study of the way of heaven in a realistic way, and followed the way of heaven to govern people and affairs, rather than working behind closed doors, looking for far-fetched reasons from various classics.

Of course, the place for worshiping heaven was set at the observatory.

Although there were some objections to this change, most of the ministers agreed. The ceremony was preserved and more solemn, which not only respected traditions, gave new ideas, and had a new spirit, and was also in line with the King of Wu's long-standing philosophy.

In addition to offering sacrifices to heaven, Xun Yu added another: sacrifices to the land. The roughly ritual is similar to the land, which shows that the emperor values ​​agriculture. Food is the heaven and farming is the foundation of all industries. Farmers who farm - now called peasants - occupy 90% of the world's household registration, a well-deserved backbone. When offering sacrifices to the land, representatives of peasants from all over the world were invited to participate in the grand event.

Because King Wu advocated equality between men and women, Xun Yu included silkworm gifts together, and the representatives of peasants would be based on couples.

The sacrifice to the sky is on the observatory platform, and there is a ready-made building, without the need to be built. The sacrifice to the land requires a new platform, which is built with the soil offered by each state, and is named the first rural platform, which not only expresses the meaning of valuing agriculture, but also means that the states pay tribute to the land and surrender.

After offering sacrifices to the land, worshiping ancestors. This worship of ancestors is not only worshiping the ancestors of Sun, but also worshiping the sages of all generations. Xun Yu proposed to build a platform of ancestors in the Imperial Academy, paint images of ancestors in the Imperial Academy, and convene professors, students gather to lecture, envoys from various states, and representatives of all industries to show their importance to people.

After worshiping heaven, earth and man, the official throne ceremony was the official throne ceremony. Generally, according to existing etiquette, some tedious steps were cancelled, and simplified, the core of treating ministers and kings with etiquette was retained, and the status of ministers was improved as appropriate, and the number of times of kneeling was reduced. Especially in the country, because they were all old ministers, it was inconvenient to kneel down. In addition to the necessary kneeling ceremony, most of them were replaced by bowing ceremony to show that they value the elderly.

Once the draft of the ritual system was released, debate was inevitable, but the overall opinions of the ministers were still positive. The biggest feature of the new ritual is one of conciseness and respect. Without deliberately showing the authority of imperial power, it has a little more humanistic concern than the rituals made by Shusun Tong, so it naturally received support from the ministers. Some people even worry whether Xun Yu's step was too big, which may arouse the disgust of the King of Wu and the draft could not be passed.

Sun Ce quickly passed the draft and immediately issued an edict to the ministers and ministers to submit revisions, which would be coordinated by Xun Yu and Ni Heng to make a plan to express their grace as soon as possible.

The principles and framework of the etiquette system are passed, and the rest are details. Soon, several specific etiquette systems were sent to Sun Ce, and some etiquettes were to be practiced. Sun Ce's agenda added one more content: perform ceremonies every day, so as not to make mistakes or be laughed at by others.

Cai Yong and Xun Yu became etiquette mentors, entering and leaving the palace every day to teach men, women, young and old in the palace.

A ceremony event was also launched in Jianye City. When the King of Wu ascended the throne, representatives from all walks of life would gather in Jianye. As the capital of the Great Wu Kingdom, the most wise area, the Jianye people naturally could not be rude and be laughed at. People who practice rituals could be seen everywhere on the streets and alleys. Even boat ladies and boys did not forget to show off their polite words when taking on work, which made the messengers from all directions who arrived one after another admired them.
