Great Zhou Empress

Chapter 160 The Assembly of Nations

Finally, it was time for the Assembly of Nations.

The first day is the opening ceremony.

In the morning, the display ceremony of athletes from all over the world and entertainment performances will be held at the oval polo field. In the afternoon, there will be a parade of floats composed of cultural characteristics from various countries. Residents feel this warm atmosphere together.

Very early in the morning, Xue Zhijing and Xiao Liege, as well as their adopted daughter Xue Mo, got into the carriage and went to the oval polo field. Those who participated with different identities also wore the costumes of their respective countries.

There is a main seat in the center of the auditorium on the polo field. The three of them sat there, surrounded by guards, and the princes and officials of Da Zhou and Liao Kingdom were surrounded by them. Further outside, different areas sat. Princes of different countries.

By this time, all the countries that had trade relations with Da Zhou and Liao sent people here, most of them were high-level princes and princes, and even the king brought the whole court. Of course, their courts all added up. There are only a few dozen people.Many people have lived here in Dazhou for a long time, and they all speak Chinese very well.

Xue Zhijing knows that in this era, in some backward areas, the boundaries between countries and tribes are not very clear. It doesn't matter. As long as the "king" can actually control an area and there are no disputes for the time being, she will recognize the country's identity of the other party. Slowly determine the physical condition of the other party.

So the whole venue looks really rich.

People of different skin colors and princes in different costumes all gathered together. It really feels like all nations are coming together.

This feeling reached its peak when the IWC players entered the arena.

Xue Zhijing drew on the experience of later generations, allowing athletes from all over the world to enter the field slowly amidst drums and music, taking the country as a unit.

Wearing sportswear with national cultural symbols custom-made in Wanguo City, they hold national flags that either already existed or were newly created, and move forward step by step.Every time a country appeared, a commentator would explain the country's introduction. Because there was no loudspeaker device, hundreds of commentators had to be arranged in the auditorium of the entire venue to explain nearby.

The first ones to come out were of course the athletes of the Great Zhou Dynasty. They wore black and red sportswear, which was born out of the costumes of the imperial army, and borrowed many features of Hufu to form a complete set of lean clothing.

Among the athletes of the Great Zhou Dynasty, [-]% are men and [-]% are women. This is already the highest proportion of female athletes among all participating countries.This is naturally because there was a female emperor in the Great Zhou Dynasty, women could participate in the imperial examination, and the Royal Comprehensive University also recruited female students, so women had channels to participate in such sports competitions.

Because it was the first World Congress held in Dazhou, there were naturally the most athletes. They were all youthful young people, walking on the oval square of the polo field, they looked full of vigor.

Xiao Liege had good eyesight, seeing Yuan Jin who was walking first, she held the national flag of the Great Zhou Dynasty in her hand.

"I want to go, but you won't let me go."

Xue Zhijing looked at her sideways, and said with a smile, "You are the ruler of the Liao Kingdom, Princess Raging Fire, and the queen of the Great Zhou Dynasty. You should sit here during the opening ceremony."

"Then how can Xiao Derui go?"

Xiao Liege originally wanted to go down by himself to bring the athletes of the Liao Kingdom into the arena for the ceremony, and let the emperor Xiao Derui sit in the auditorium, but Xue Zhijing did not agree.

Now that Xiao Liege talked about it again, it was obviously what he had been looking forward to before, and Xue Zhijing had to coax him again, "I know you like excitement and sports, and if you have the opportunity, you would be the one who takes the lead. But You also know that this conference of all nations is to establish a new order for all nations. As the ruler of the Liao Kingdom, you represent the image of the entire Liao Kingdom. And Xiao Derui, isn’t it the opportunity you gave him to exercise? Let him grow faster stand up?"

Xiao Liege didn't know why, but he was still a little annoyed, and stopped after being coaxed by Xue Zhijing.

Finally, the athletes of Dazhou stood in the middle of their area, and the athletes of Liao entered the field

At this time, Xiao Liege didn't care about being sad that he didn't get to play, and watched with a smile on his face.

This time, the athletes of the Liao Kingdom changed their image of two-hundred-pound strong men during the last New Year's military exercise. They are all relatively well-proportioned people, but most of them are men, and very few of them are women.

Xiao Derui walked in front carrying the national flag of the Liao Kingdom. There was a wolf embroidered on the national flag of the Liao Kingdom.

Seeing Xiao Derui's appearance, Xiao Liege felt a sense of comfort, and said, "When he comes to power again in two years, I don't care about anything. I will bring Xue Mo with me when the time comes," she said, He also glanced at Xue Mo who was obediently sitting at the back, Xue Mo smiled sweetly at her, "I will take her to play everywhere, go hunting in the mountains and forests in autumn, swim in the sea in winter, and go fishing in the North Sea in summer. In the spring, I go horse racing on the grassland, and then I can be as free as I want.”

Xue Zhijing looked at her, she really looked like a simple child, she didn't hit her anymore, and said with a smile, "Okay."

Next is the entry of all nations. Some countries look pitiful with fewer people, while others have more people and smile brightly.Listening to the introduction by the narrator next to him, Xiao Liege's mind was a little swollen, feeling like how could he remember so many countries.

Xiao Liege said with emotion, "How can there be so many different people in this world? Our skins are different, our heights are different, and it seems that our bones are also different."

Xue Zhijing smiled, "Everything is different in nature. Look at the cattle, the cattle grown in your Liao Kingdom are also different from the cattle grown in the south of Dazhou."

"That's right, the hair of the cows near Beihai grows like a waterfall."

"Mao looks like a waterfall? Your analogy is quite interesting."

Xiao Liege suddenly said with great interest, "But Jing, tell me, when can the two of us take a boat to visit their country? I grew up so big, it seems that I have been to other countries except Liao Zhou, seeing so many countries and so many different people in the world, I suddenly became curious."

"Want to travel? I'm also very interested." Xue Zhijing said, but if he goes, he will have to retire, and he can't retire yet.

"No wonder back then," Xiao Liege leaned over, and said in a low voice, "Then who is going to leave, how could it be so comfortable to be trapped here working freely."

What Xiao Liege was talking about was Yuan Hanzhang.

Xue Zhijing is also thinking, Yuan Hanzhang and Ayila don't know where they are now, they should be living comfortably and at ease.

Yuan Hanzhang took responsibility for this land and hundreds of millions of people for 20 years, and finally got tired and left.Now that this responsibility fell on Xue Zhijing, she could only talk about retiring and leaving after she had shouldered the responsibility well.Otherwise, how could she be at ease with her busy character.

The athletes almost filled the entire oval polo field, and they all looked energetic.

Xue Zhijing stood up and spoke to everyone in the audience. She said a word, and the commentators spread her words one by one.

She didn't say anything, it was all the official phrases, and she didn't feel anything when she added some words of encouragement, but she didn't know that it was the first time she heard it in People of Ten Thousand Kingdoms, and everyone was quite excited.

The float parade in the afternoon was more interesting. Naturally, Xue Zhijing and Xiao Liege didn't go to the street and crowded with people. They just sat on the gate tower of the imperial palace to watch.

Because the gate tower of the imperial palace is built very high, higher than all the houses in Wanguo City, so you can clearly see which street the floats go to. From a distance, there are many colorful streets, and there are many people around, and the noise is noisy. It also came from there.

Xiao Liege smiled and said, "It's so lively."

Xue Zhi nodded, with a smile on his face, "The World Congress is played in the venue, and not everyone can go to see it, but this kind of float parade can be seen by everyone in the city. Just like the Lantern Festival It is the same as the Lantern Festival, but because it is dynamic, it can arouse people's inner emotions more than the lantern activities. People will be very happy."

Xiao Liege turned his head sideways, and looked at Xue Zhijing carefully, Xue Zhijing asked, "What are you looking at, is there something on my face?"

"Then, I just want to see what's in your head, why you have so many ideas."

Because the people around were standing far away, Xue Zhijing reached out and rubbed Xiao Liege's head, and said with a smile, "Then take a good look, and let me know when you understand it after researching."

Xiao Liege, whose head was rubbed, looked like a cat whose fur had been smoothed out, with a gentle shyness, and a smile on the corners of his eyes and brows.

After a while, she said, "Didn't you ask if our Xiao family has any children from the Pangzhi family? Recently, I have taken a fancy to a little girl. She was two years old. Her mother died of dystocia when she was born. Her father died a while ago. Shi Shi also died of a serious illness, and there is only a stepmother and a pair of twin brothers left in the family. I mentioned the matter of adoption, and their family members are naturally willing."

Xue Zhijing's face was stained with pity, "Such a poor child?"

"I also feel very pitiful. Before I mentioned the matter of adoption, I saw the child once. His eyes were big and bright. At that time, I felt that this child was different from children of the same age. It seemed that I saw it when I was hunting in the woods. Those small animals that lived alone."

"If you really like it, then adopt it."

Speaking of this Xiao Liege looked excited, "Then I will let her do the succession ceremony, I have already named her Xiao Hezhen, 'He' is taken from "Zhou Li", and 'Zhen' is taken from "Yi" "Jing", you see, my current level of education is not bad."

How can Xiao Liege be an illiterate reckless man who governs a country, she said that because she wanted to show off in front of Xue Zhijing and gain recognition.

Seeing her eyeballs rolling, Xue Zhijing knew what was going on in her heart, so he laughed.

"Of course, my darling is not a great writer now, but she is also well-educated and talented."

Xiao Liege quickly waved his hand, "I don't have a lot of talents, but I will accept it without shame, haha."
