Hidden Dragon in Qing Dynasty

Because she was curious, Princess Cissie chased her from London all the way to the Giant Stone Formation, and because she was even more curious, she wanted to hear some of the false images that Xiao Letian had regarding the Giant Stone Formation.

This was originally a kind of woman's subconscious test, to be frank, it even had a bit of a spoiled tone to it. Princess Cissie herself did not expect to hear anything dry either, she just wanted to talk with Xiao Letian, to get to know him.

However, in the eyes of outsiders, this scene looked a little flirtatious. The guards and maids of the Princess Cissie had never seen the empress so proactively getting closer to that man.

It was only when they met this Chinese that everything changed. Their instincts told them to warn the princess not to play with fire, but their loyalty and love for the princess prevented them from speaking.

Princess Cissie did not live a happy life in the Vienna's palace.

The princess felt lonely that her husband could not devote his attention to her in order to deal with the affairs of the empire.

Why does the Princess Cissie travel in Europe all year round? In the end, it was still to avoid the cold and gloomy palace that made him sad, the impersonal prison.

Seeing the princess staring at Xiao Letian without blinking, the servants who had been following her for many years sighed, and subconsciously widened the radius once again. At the moment, not even a rabbit could run into the fifty meter radius around the stone array.

Of course, Xiao Letian could feel the Princess Cissie's burning gaze, which frightened him so much that he hurriedly avoided it and continued his speech.

"Well, no one taught me that, but isn't that the truth? "If I have the time, I will organize an archaeological team to carry out archaeological excavations within a hundred miles …"

"We can make a bet. There's definitely an extremely high level tomb near the Stonehenge. It's either a king, a great Druid or a sacrificial offering …"

"The stone array must have something to do with religion. It's either a sacrificial site or an observatory where people observe the stars. Of course, you should understand that the ancient observatories are all there to serve the religion …"

"Really?" The Princess Cissie asked, "Can't it be like the legends described, that a mage or god created this miracle? You can see that such a huge stone, each piece has a weight of a few hundred tons, how could Paleogene move it? "

"No, no, no …" "Dear Queen, you don't seem to understand Paleogene's engineering skills. In fact, the ancients are smarter than we thought, first, we should transport the rocks, splash water in the winter to form ice, and use the rolling wood to propel the rocks in the summer. This isn't as responsible as you think …"

"It is indeed a great project to erect these boulders, but have you heard of the method of piling up soil?"

"It's actually very simple. Where people want to erect boulders, they use earth to build a long slope, using human or animal power to push the boulders to the top, and then use natural gravity to drop the boulders into deep pits …"

"Once all the boulders are in place, then we'll have to use manpower to carry away these slopes bit by bit. Doesn't this reveal the formation of boulders standing there …"

"My God! How could you be so familiar with ancient engineering … Wait? This theory of yours seems to be able to explain the construction of the pyramid. "

"Haha, you're too smart, beautiful princess. What you said was absolutely correct …" The excited Xiao Letian subconsciously bent his right index finger. He actually used his finger to hook the tip of the princess' nose, as if he was flirting with a pet.

Princess Cissie's heart skipped a beat as if the blood in her body didn't flow at that moment, but Xiao Letian completely subconsciously moved. He was usually at his work place at home, often teasing the female secretary beside him.

"That's right, the pyramid is also built with a layer of boulders. After circling around the boulders, it is built with a sloping earthen slope. The boulders from the second floor are piled up along the slope, and the slope continues to rise. Like this, the third floor, fourth floor and all the way to the top are built one by one …"

"Isn't the area of the pyramid shrinking from bottom to top? When it's being built, there are naturally spirals of soil on the surface of the slope, and the boulders are being lifted up and transported …"

Princess Cissie tried her best to control her breathing, trying her best to smile more naturally. "Alright, you've really taught me a lesson, but I still want to hear your theories about the boundary between beasts and humans. This is the first time I've heard someone explain the origins of a religion like this …"

Xiao Letian scratched his nose, thinking that this woman is too bored, she actually wants to talk about religion with me? Going by the rules, wouldn't it be a simple opening statement before talking about the future diplomatic relations between the Austro-Hungarian Empire and the Chinese?

Beautiful! Don't forget your job. You are the queen of an empire. Everything you do should be linked to politics and to benefits.

Xiao Letian had always thought that the stone array, the Mauritius's nature reserve, was only the opening, political life would not have so much leisure and elegance.

Princess Cissie helped him in the business of buying Mauritius, but his final goal was to reap benefits in return. At the moment, Austro-Hungarian Empire was not a landlocked country, he had his own navy and oceanic fleet.

As for the wealth of the sea, the Austro-Hungarian Empire was drooling over it, thinking of a way to reach a friendly agreement with the Chinese so that the business could go to Asia. This is what a queen like you should do.

Why didn't he just talk about the important matters and continue chasing after these unrelated matters?

However, the other party's status was high after all, so he couldn't turn hostile. In the end, he could only bear with his temper and continue wasting time with this woman.

"Like I said before, to be able to realize that death is unavoidable when one is young and mature is something only humans possess …"

"It's not like animals don't have a sense of death. Many gorillas also show signs of grief when they see their companions die. However, that feeling was completely passive and only lasted for an instant …"

"Only humans. He might still be a few decades away from death, but he has already observed the group and began to ponder why!"

"When anthropology learns how to think, spirituality will burst forth, and humans and beasts will naturally be separated from each other …"
