Chapter 1594: Life is like a dream (first update, please subscribe)
The wheel of history rolls forward, and as winter passes and spring comes, the years flow quietly year after year.In the blink of an eye, time passed by the new century. After the 19th century, the century with the fastest development and the most drastic changes in human history, came to an end, human beings ushered in another ten years of rapid development.

Time flies by, and after the new century comes, so does a new era.

This era belongs to China!

As the direct founder of this era, as early as the 35th year of Shengde, Emperor Zhu Da stopped doing government affairs and handed over all government affairs to the crown prince.In the past ten years, Zhu Youlin, who ruled as the crown prince, promoted the reform of the empire bit by bit, from establishing the constitution to establishing the advisory council, transforming from a traditional empire that relied on wise kings and wise ministers to one that relied on institutional constraints. modern empire.The changes in the empire over the years are obvious for all to see.

It is precisely because of this that the crown prince won an unprecedented reputation.This also made Emperor Zhu feel at ease and hand over power to the prince and no longer interfere in government affairs.

But even so, every year on his birthday, hundreds of thousands of subjects would gather in the square in front of the imperial city to congratulate him. This seems to have become a tradition.

I don’t know when, Emperor Zhu Da’s birthday has evolved into a festival in the empire. From day to night, after the lanterns were lit, and amid the cheers of hundreds of thousands of subjects, Emperor Zhu Da walked to the main entrance of the palace and in front of the Daming Gate. , when his figure appeared, the square burst into cheers,
Emperor Zhu Da, who was holding on to the marble handrail, felt a little tired for the first time. As in previous years, after waving to his subjects at the Daming Gate, beautiful fireworks rose in the distant sky.

The emperor's birthday... is essentially a holiday for the empire. On this day, the empire has a holiday and enjoys it with the people!
Looking at the bright fireworks in the sky, Emperor Zhu looked a little solemn, and then he said.

"Youlin, how many years have you been in office as your father?"

"Father, it will be exactly 48 years next year."

"48 years..."

After thinking about it, Emperor Zhu said.

"I ascended the throne in Yingtian at the age of 31, and it has been 48 years since then. I am now nearly eighty years old. I have been in office for decades and have worked hard to be worthy of the world and my compatriots..."

Looking at the people congratulating himself on his birthday in the square, Emperor Zhu Da suddenly said.

"Let the people in the square disperse, it's getting late..."

Emperor Zhu Da looked at it for a while and suddenly spoke.

"I will issue an edict to abdicate tomorrow!"

"Father, this, this..."

Zhu Youlin, the crown prince of the Ming Dynasty, was stunned for a moment when he heard this. When he didn't know how to answer, Emperor Zhu Da patted him on the shoulder and said.

"Okay, from now on the empire will be left to you. Remember that you are not only responsible for the welfare of hundreds of millions of subjects of the Ming Dynasty, but also responsible for the entire China. We... are not just an empire, but A tribe!”

Yes, Daming is just a member of this group.

The Pacific Ocean is now called the "Chinese Ocean" because there are Chinese empires on both sides of the strait. From the mainland to Mexico, from Alaska to the Strait of Magellan, from Hawaii to Australia, to New Zealand, empires and kingdoms of China rule this vast area. In the region, even in Colombia and Venezuela, more than ten years ago, popular uprisings occurred successively, overthrowing the Caudillo regime in the country, and invited the prince of the Ming Dynasty to be their king.

How to maintain this alliance involving more than a dozen countries, tens of millions of square kilometers, and hundreds of millions of people will test the wisdom of the emperor.What did Emperor Zhu Da leave behind?

It's nothing more than a close economic connection, and of course a close connection by blood. They are brothers.

"My son understands!"

Nodding vigorously, Emperor Zhu laughed.

"Okay, from now on, the empire will be left to you!"

Facing his father's back, Zhu Youlin looked up at the fireworks rising from time to time in the sky, and said with a smile:
"Father, the minister will order someone to prepare the imperial edict, and wait until tomorrow to promulgate it."

Emperor Zhu Da waved his hand, turned around and walked towards the elevator behind him. Zhu Youlin also walked in. After entering the elevator, Zhu Youlin asked.

"Father, the situation within the Roman Empire is somewhat unstable now. It has been going on in the Viceroyalties of Pakistan and India for many years. I didn't know you..."

At this time, Zhu Youlin turned the topic to the international situation. As the emperor of the empire, among many countries, he only cared about the Roman Empire because it was too vast.

"India……"

Facing his son's question, Emperor Zhu laughed, and waved his hand to interrupt his son's question, "I am already 80 years old... I am already an octogenarian, and the current situation in the world is no longer what I should consider at this age It's a matter of course. Whatever happens to Rome, the world, or even China, you, the emperor, have the final say. I believe in you, not only in your ability, but also in Zhuxia, who is strong enough to crush all challengers. strength! Remember, we are not just a Ming... but Zhu Xia!"

Looking at his son, Zhu Changshou said seriously.

He needs to remind his sons of this - all Xia are one, one is prosperous and all are prosperous, one is harmed and all are harmed!
He paused, then said:
"My only thought right now is to travel around the country and see with my own eyes the great rivers and mountains that I have spent my life creating. Not to mention the far-off places, there is Angel Falls in Venezuela. I have never compared it! There is also the ancient Mayan city in Mexico. , I have already planned to travel around the countries starting from tomorrow... These countries are all the countries of my summers!"

Yes, perhaps, the past of various countries has such and such a history, whether it is glorious or declining, it belongs to Zhuxia now. After reading Zhuxia, you can go back to China again. It is beautiful, but it is not as beautiful as Huaxia. For so many years, I don’t know how many times, Emperor Zhu wanted to visit Huaxia, to see the scenery there, to see the magnificent mountains and rivers.

The Yellow River, the Yangtze River...that is the root of China!

No matter where the Chinese people go, in the end, that is the root of China. They should also pay homage to the Yellow Emperor's Mausoleum and tell the Yellow Emperor that the descendants of Yan and Huang have spread all over the world. They can also stop by the Xiaoling Mausoleum to pay homage to Emperor Gaozu. , although on the day Xiaoqi returned to China, he first went to Xiaoling to pay homage to Emperor Gaozu and told Emperor Gao that the restoration of the Ming Dynasty was successful.

But I should also go and see it and pay my respects. No matter what, in the name of Lao Zhu, I should go and see it both emotionally and rationally...

When he walked out of the elevator, Emperor Zhu Da signaled his son not to follow him. He walked slowly along the imperial road behind the Daming Gate. On this day, he thought a lot. He thought of the early days of the Ming Dynasty decades ago. When he came to Buenos Aires and met Elizabeth, they were both still very young. It seemed that at this moment, he saw those bright eyes again, and saw the person who happened to be facing him. Smiling woman!
Not only her, but also Princess Sissi, and... they are all here!It seemed like they were waiting for him there.

Their appearance seemed to have not been baptized by the years. They had regained their youth again, as beautiful as when they first met. Looking at them, his face showed the memories of the past. He couldn't help but lift his feet and walked slowly over. …
