Travel through the Qing Dynasty and become emperor

Chapter 424 The Handsome Boy

The American "Los Angeles Express" commented: "Hong Kong was occupied in ten hours. This is an incredible thing for the United Kingdom and all Western countries. In their view, although the possibility of Hong Kong being able to hold is extremely small, after all, Hong Kong Right under the eyes of China, with the Sino-British negotiations bogged down in the quagmire, China's use of force to take back Hong Kong is almost the only choice for the Chinese. What's more, this battle created a miracle. After ten hours of fighting In this case, due to the careful planning in advance, the design of the attack route, and the timely evacuation of civilians at the point of fire, only 26 Hong Kong citizens were injured in this battle, and they received proper medical treatment as soon as the war ended. Created a miracle of zero deaths in the history of world wars."

The French "Marseille" also quickly commented on this matter: "It seems that the British made a wrong decision at the wrong time and at the wrong place this time. Before that, the UK had not officially reported to China. In the past two days, they have been trying to actively contact the Chinese Foreign Ministry through diplomatic means, and privately expressed their apologies for the unfriendly negotiations in London, but they never mentioned the time and place of the second negotiation. As a result It can be seen that although the British are aggressive on the surface and look like they don’t take China seriously, they even sent more troops to Hong Kong. But in their hearts, the British are still quite afraid of China. Although they On the surface, it is still the world's number one military power, but they are quite clear in their hearts that China's scientific and technological strength is really amazing. Airplanes, tanks, and submarines were only imagined on the blueprints of British experts. Once it becomes a reality by the Chinese, once all these scientific and technological forces are invested in the military, it will be a very dire consequence. Therefore, the British still do not want to be an enemy of China so early in their hearts. Otherwise, with their personalities, it is estimated that within a few minutes of China's attack on Hong Kong, they would have already declared war on China."

The German "Germanicer" commented more subjectively: "The Chinese ignored the olive branches repeatedly extended by the British, and launched an attack on Hong Kong regardless. This illustrates two problems. First, The Chinese still hate the British invasion of China and the unequal treaties they signed. They are holding their breath and vowing to give the British a good lesson in retaliation for the two Opium Wars and the British disregard of China. People's feelings, and the hatred of taking an indifferent and evasive attitude towards the Hong Kong issue. China's tough stance in this incident and the Sino-Japanese bird port incident some time ago has shown that if you don't respect me, don't expect us to respect you. Second, the Chinese do not really take the number one power in the world seriously. The so-called friendly actions of the British are not enough to dispel China’s strong demands for its own territory. In this case, as a recognized world’s number one power, Britain Naturally, people can't do things like the former Qing Dynasty, insisting on using their hot faces to cling to the cold things of the Chinese people, even if they are unwilling in their hearts, they can only bite the bullet and fight."

In Beijing, the autumn is crisp and clear. After finishing the government affairs at hand, Guan Xuqing relaxes in the Old Summer Palace with the companions of a group of palace officials.Looking up at the sky of the universe, looking down at the flowers that never fade in all seasons, I feel a burst of joy in my heart, and I want to break my throat and sing.Guan Xuqing stopped for a long time before coming to the stele of the scenic spot in Fanghu, and saw that there was an inscription written by Emperor Qianlong on the stele.You must know that gold and silver are palaces, so how different is it?Immediate realm is immortal, at ease in my room, what is there to seek?This square pot is also the name of the residence.In the east is the Ruizhu Palace, in the west there are three pools reflecting the moon, clearing the sky and brightening the sky, creating another scenic spot.Fei Guantu cloud mirror water cold, take empty pines and cypresses and ginseng.Gaogang Xiangyu's name should be six, and Quzhu Hanchan's seal should be three.It is not a good thing to use the craftsman's heart, and the people of Qi are just empty talk.Fighting like a fairy house in Maotu, Twelve golden halls are more shameless.

Guan Xuqing thought to himself, Qianlong claimed to have made three major achievements in his life: establishing virtue, making meritorious service, and establishing a reputation.Let’s talk about morality first. Qianlong’s difference from Li Shimin’s in this respect is far more than scheming. He condoned and corrupted the gentry, listened to one side and believed in another. The question of whether the messenger kneels or not kneels is stubborn, what is the word for virtue?Besides, in terms of meritorious service, Qianlong was inferior to Kangxi in terms of ability, and inferior to Yongzheng in terms of diligence. To a large extent, the reason why he was able to sit on such a large amount of merit was to say that he was born at the right time.If Kangxi and Yongzheng hadn't made great efforts to govern and laid such a solid foundation for the Qing Dynasty, how could the prosperity of Qianlong appear?Finally, let’s talk about Liyan. Qianlong ordered the compilation of the "Siku Quanshu", which contains the culmination of ancient and modern books, but on the one hand he compiled the books and searched all the old papers and words in the world, but at the same time, the literary prison instigated in his hands reached an unprecedented level. How many precious ancient books were burned and annihilated in the Qianlong Dynasty?
Guan Xuqing thought, I don't know if future generations will evaluate him or Qianlong, which one is better?

Just as he was thinking about it, he saw Wang Shang running over from the stone path profusely with sweat on his head. Guan Xuqing frowned. He finally had the leisure to enjoy the autumn scenery. Seeing Wang Shang's flustered appearance, he must have Yes, something happened again.

Wang Shang has become the chief executive in the past few years, and he has become more and more blessed. It is a bit difficult to walk, not to mention that he ran away. He finally got in front of the emperor, and he was already out of breath. "Emperor"

Guan Xuqing looked at Wang Shang's distressed appearance, and laughed angrily, "You dog slave, seeing how anxious you are, what news do you bring to me again? I will wait for you to catch your breath first."

Wang Shang managed to calm down, and then said: "Your Majesty, do you still remember the two daughters of Rong Geng that the servant mentioned to you a few days ago, and you kept praising them as strange women?" .”

Guan Xuqing's eyes lit up, and he said, "Yes, I remember, what's wrong?"

"You also said that you will meet them when you have time in the future."

Guan Xuqing followed Wang Shang's instructions and kicked, scolding: "You son of a bitch, tell me directly if you have anything to say."

Wang Shang laughed badly and said, "The two princesses have already returned to China! Do you think they should be declared into the palace to face saints?"

"Oh?" Guan Xuqing said happily: "Alright, where are they now?"

"It's in Master Zhen's Jingren Palace. The slaves only now know that Master Zhen has been playmates with these two princesses since he was a child. It's great that the three of them are inseparable. A few days ago, the two princesses They returned to China from France and England successively, and went to visit Master Zhen as soon as they came back, and the three of them lingered together all day long, talking endlessly about themselves."

Guan Xuqing kicked Wang Shangshang again, and cursed: "Slave dog, if that's the case, what are you talking about here? Immediately follow me to Jingren Palace to visit those two princesses, no, visit my mother!" Concubine Zhen."

Wang Shang smiled knowingly and said, "Cha, go see Master Zhen."

Accompanied by Wang Shang, Guan Xuqing came all the way to the gate of Jingren Palace. Wang Shang tried his best to shout out to the people inside, but Guan Xuqing gave him a hard look and hurriedly covered his mouth. . "Don't be so yelling, my beloved concubine who came to see me is not Linchao, do I need such a bluff?"

"twitter."

Passing through the two moon gates, the palace people on duty saw that the emperor was coming, and were so frightened that they knelt down and wanted to shout long live, but Wang Shang stopped them in time.When he came to the third door, Guan Xuqing listened carefully, only to hear the crisp laughter coming from inside, his heart moved, and he walked gently into the inner court.

I saw a wave of autumn water under the moss-covered rockery, and three girls beside the water wave were talking and laughing.Concubine Zhen is sitting on a rose chair, looking at the front with a blushing face, standing next to her is a girl dressed in Western style, with wavy curly hair, wearing a foam kilt, smiling at Concubine Zhen from time to time: " Sister, I told you not to move, don’t move, what you usually look like at this time is still the same, just look at the camera in front of you. "

Concubine Zhen beat the girl on the back, and said: "De Ling, your sisters like to tease me since they were young. After going abroad for a few years, you came back with nothing else, and brought sister a rare thing from Westerners. This thing It can't be a Westerner's demon mirror, it's too evil, don't take my soul away."

De Ling laughed and trembled: "Sister, you stay in the palace all day, and you don't know anything about the outside world. This is called a camera. It can take photos of people and scenery in real life. How can you take pictures of the soul? Take it away, you can really break it!"

"Isn't it? Think about it, using this thing to turn me into a living person on a piece of paper, isn't that a dementor? No, sister, I don't dare to play this foreigner's trick." Said As soon as Concubine Zhen was about to get up, De Ling pushed her back to her seat.

De Ling deliberately tensed his face and said: "Sister, if I teach you not to move, don't move. Look at the camera over there, and you will be fine in a while. If you don't follow me, my sister will not come to play with you in the future."

At this moment, a thin voice behind the camera curtain said: "Don't move, just this position, okay, take a picture!"

With a sound of "bang", a cloud of fire and white smoke came out of the camera, Concubine Zhen was so frightened that she jumped up from her chair and shouted, "There is a ghost! There is a ghost!"

With a flick of the camera curtain, an unusually handsome young man came out from behind. This young man had a long English-style ponytail, wore gray overalls, a snow-white shirt with a bow tie inside, and looked both gentlemanly and elegant. Heroic and valiant.

Guan Xuqing's anger welled up in his heart, and he thought to himself, what a shame, how could a young man appear in the imperial concubine's bedroom!
