Da Zongbo was the official in charge of the rituals of gods, humans, ghosts, and earth in the Zhou royal family. He was an important symbol of assisting the royal family and protecting the country.
At that time, the Zhou royal family mainly focused on two major events, one was sacrifice, and the other was war. And war was also related to sacrifice. Therefore, whenever there was any major sacrificial activity, the eldest uncle would even hug his ancestors.
If you have a spiritual tablet, you can board the car first, and you can be listed before the emperor!
Da Zongbo is the third Duke and one of the six high officials. His subordinates include Xiao Zongbo, Taishi, Dabu, Sishi, Dasi Le, Dazhu, and Dali, etc. They assist the emperor in taking charge of clan rituals and in charge of the sacrifices to the gods and ancestors.
.In addition, the implementation of various etiquette regulations in the ancestral temple and within the clan is also undertaken by the eldest uncle.
Generally speaking, those who are qualified to serve as eldest uncle are basically respected elders of the royal family named Ji. Moreover, this important position has been vacant for many years because of the many factions within the royal family.
Shan Qi knew the key to this position and immediately came out and said:
"Your Majesty, this is inconsistent with etiquette. Although Li Taishi has made great achievements, he still has a foreign surname. It may not be appropriate to hold the position of eldest uncle!"
Unexpectedly, Zhou Wang Gai Que was already prepared and said:
"Li Qing has worked hard for my Zhou family, and his achievements are no less than those of the Duke of Zhou and Uncle Gong in the past! He also worked hard to promote the appointment of princes. This is a major event that has not happened to our royal family for a long time!"
"But who can take care of such an important matter on my behalf? It must be Li Qing! Li Qing has a clean family background. As far as I know, his father Li Er also held the position of collecting history in the Zhou Dynasty. And he
His master, Chang Hong, was also a world-famous sage! Moreover, his master was framed by traitors at that time. In order to prove his innocence and not to implicate the Zhou family, he committed hara-kiri and died..."
"Speaking of which, Gu and all the ministers are indebted to Dr. Chang! Now why not give his disciples a high position?"
"What's more, his identity is not Ji's. Yin Yi was also a Taishi at the beginning, and he was not an elder with Ji's surname. King Cheng made him the eldest uncle in an unusual way. Today, Li Ran is made the eldest uncle, which is really traceable.
Follow! There is nothing wrong with it!"
What Zhou Wanggai said was groundbreaking.
Not only did he confront Shan Qi head-on, but he also spoke in such a reasonable and reasonable manner that even if Shan Qi was dissatisfied, he would not dare to object in front of the court.
Obviously, the king of Zhou must have received some guidance from an expert behind his back.
And Li Ran knew very well that among the Zhou royal family, the one who had the ability and the willingness to get close to the emperor and teach him the "way to fight back" must be Guan Cong!
Seeing that Shan Qi didn't say anything, the King of Zhou turned to ask other officials for their opinions.
But the other ministers had nothing to say when they saw Shan Qi, so what could they say? So they immediately agreed:
"Li Taishi is perfect for both his knowledge and status!"
"What's more, he has made such great contributions, and he truly deserves it!"
In this way, Li Ran relied on this act to revive the Zhou royal family that had been dormant for many years, and he himself naturally assumed the position of eldest uncle!
…
On the other hand, after years of hard work by Li Ran, the century-old plan of the Dark Walkers has been completely destroyed.
Nowadays, Tian Qi's focus has begun to focus solely on the country, and no longer attempts to get involved in the leadership of powerful officials in the world.
Leaderless, the secret gangs finally began to disintegrate. Just like Shan Qi's change in attitude, this is the best proof.
Li Ran was overjoyed with such an achievement. He owed so many people, but he did not let down the world.
Li Ran came out of the palace and was about to return to the mansion when he saw Guan Cong running over in a hurry. Li Ran saw Guan Cong coming towards him, so he stopped and waited for him.
Guan Cong arrived at Li Ran's side and saluted:
"Guan Cong has met my lord!"
Li Ran waved his hand and said with a slight smile:
"Haha, Ziyu is exempt from gifts. We are all family members, so you don't have to be so restrained in front of me. Ziyu has been busy these days, and it's hard work!"
Guan Cong did not get up, and said in shame:
"Guan Cong failed to complete what the lord told him before he left, and failed to protect Mr. Chang..."
When Li Ran heard this, he couldn't help but restrain his smile, let out a long sigh, and helped Guan Cong up.
"My master died on behalf of Ran. The fault is all mine. It has nothing to do with you. Ziyu doesn't have to blame himself for this..."
Guan Cong stood up and said helplessly:
"I never thought...Mr. Chang could be so strong, actually..."
Li Ran hid his tears, patted Guan Cong's shoulder gently and said:
"I know that Ziyu has tried his best... There is no need to mention this matter again. If Ziyu has free time, he can go and make some preparations, and then come with me to pay homage to his master..."
Guan Cong took the order and left, while Li Ran returned to the mansion first.
When they arrived in the backyard, they found Fan Li talking and laughing with Liguang. Apparently Fan Li was recounting their experiences over the years, and Liguang was listening with interest as usual.
In a daze, Li Ran actually felt that Fan Li and Liguang seemed to be a good match. As soon as he had this idea, he was immediately rejected by himself:
"Guang'er is about to reach the age of marriage. I actually have such ridiculous thoughts. Fan Li is a person who wants to do big things. Why do I have such unrealistic thoughts? Can I make Guang'er be like her mother?
Are you worried about your husband all day?"
However, Li Ran did not disturb them. Instead, he went directly to find Gong Eryue. Gong Eryue was also reading a book at this time. Li Ran saw her sitting upright, just like Ji Le did back then.
This inevitably made him a little confused, but at the same time he also understood the identity of Bai Eryue. However, as a woman who was born as a barbarian in the Yue country, she was now as dignified as a lady, which was indeed a bit strange.
.
As soon as Li Ran approached, Gong Eryue became alert. She suddenly raised her head and found that it was Li Ran, and she couldn't help but said:
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "It has been such a long time since I left! Do you know...do you know that I..."
Li Ran wanted to hug Gong Eryue, but she avoided her. Li Ran's stretched out hand was also quite embarrassing, so he had to reach back and touch his nose.
"The situation in Jin is more complicated, so the delay is longer!"
Gong Eryue snorted again, but said with a smile:
"You said before...that you would never leave again, is that true?"
Li Ran nodded and said with a gentle smile:
"Now that I have been granted the title of Grand Uncle by the Emperor, I can no longer leave Chengzhou easily. So, are you telling the truth?"
Gong Eryue noticed that Li Ran had gray hair on her temples and couldn't help but said:
"You really shouldn't run around anymore. If you get seriously ill again outside, you won't be able to bear it..."
Li Ran smiled and said:
"I know, I understand. In addition to taking a good rest, I can also spend more time with Guang'er. In addition... there is one more thing I want to confirm with you... and that is what you...
for me……"
At this time, Gong Eryue was a little panicked:
"I'll tell you about this later..."
Li Ran sighed helplessly. After all, he had been waiting for this for too long and did not want to let down his beloved again.
So, he had no choice but to tactfully say:
"It's just... I hope that when Guang'er gets married, Yue'er can send her off as her mother!"
Gong Eryue raised her eyes and said playfully:
"Ha! So that's what happened! It's just a pretense, so why not?!"
Li Ran wanted to say more, but he heard Guan Cong calling from not far away:
"Lord, the carriage has been prepared!"
Gong Eryue couldn't help but ask:
"Huh? Where are you going again?"
Li Ran saw that she seemed a little worried, so he comforted her and said:
"Oh, don't worry, I'm going to pay homage to my master. If Yue'er is free, why don't we come with her?!"
After hearing this, Gong Eryue felt relieved and nodded directly in agreement.
