The old emperor Qianlong and the Qing Empire also maintained a certain connection. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 infoThis connection, tacitly allowed by the United Empire, was not severed by their control over the crossing of the barrier.

Therefore, Qianlong's wife, you taught him about the situation in the United Empire, and in a more obscure way, it was transmitted back to China. Among the Qing ministers, there were also quite a few people who stood up to speak for the old Emperor Qianlong, believing that the reason why their revered Emperor His Majesty was ridiculed and ridiculed was entirely due to the poor hospitality of the United Empire, at least because they did not explain the etiquette issues.

This view was very marketable within the Qing Empire, especially among the upper ruling class, however, their views did not spread to the United Empire, because they did not have any medium to use as a medium to spread their views.

Looking at the side of the United Empire, newspapers and other media are still disseminated everywhere in the Great Qing Kingdom without money. Even if you can't read or write, you will take out a copper plate or two for gossip, and buy a few newspapers, even if it's just to look at beautiful pictures, it's excellent.

What's more, there are also those literate scholars, they can not only see the pictures, but also understand the meaning of the newspaper article, for a while, no matter what kind of words you use to describe your situation, they also know that the emperor they respect is embarrassed abroad.

This disappointment spread rapidly in the Qing Dynasty. Naturally, the ideas of ordinary people will not attract the attention of the imperial court, however, the views of those low-level literati can easily attract the attention of the imperial court, and soon, the imperial court realized that this disappointment is causing some bad tendencies, for example, the White Lotus Sect, which has emerged in the southwest, is using the corresponding theories to spread the fallacies and heresies of the Qing Dynasty.

In this regard, the Qing Dynasty naturally wanted to express a solemn protest, so they sent their whole journey, Niu Colu and Shen, to negotiate.

When He Shen saw Huang Xiaohua, the other party was leisurely nibbling on roast chicken, in the days of the Qing Dynasty, it was obviously worse than the Song Dynasty, especially in terms of diet, the people of the Song Dynasty were very good at eating, this kind of vassal elegance by-product, in the Northern Song Dynasty, has become a culture, even in the Southern Song Dynasty, in a corner of the Southern Song Dynasty, it is not much better, but in the Ming and Qing dynasties, it has regressed a lot, especially after the Manchu Qing Dynasty entered the Central Plains, there are many food cultures that have changed the taste.

What's more, Huang Xiaohua doesn't appreciate the ancient food culture very much, he prefers to take the modern food culture back to the past and wash their souls, so He Shen saw this scene.

This guy actually drank eight-treasure porridge while gnawing on chicken legs, and proudly signaled that He Shen could sit casually.

This kind of rude behavior will obviously arouse the disgust of the Qing Dynasty ministers, however, who is He Shen? He is also a practical talent, how can he care about such a trivial matter, not to mention, this can reflect that the intimate relationship between Huang Xiaohua and her is by no means comparable to ordinary people.

"And my lord, you don't need to hug me when you come here, who is with whom." Sure enough, as soon as she opened her mouth, Huang Xiaohua's mouth, which had not yet swallowed the food, said something that made He Shen very happy.

However, although he was happy in his heart, it was not easy to show it directly, after all, it was a business now, so he could only use this to express his great feelings of selflessness.

I only heard He Shen and the adults say: "If it is a normal relationship and a private relationship, then I naturally don't have to do this, but today, I am here for official business." ”

"Business? What business? Huang Xiaohua asked with a puzzled expression.

"My Majesty, it seems that you have encountered some trouble in the United Empire, and besides, this thing called a newspaper in the United Empire seems to be talking a little too much."

He Shen's expression can actually be very gloomy and obscure, of course, he knows that Huang Xiaohua has the ability to understand. He was sent here as an envoy at a young age, obviously a capable person, of course he didn't know that he was sent here entirely because the United Empire didn't care about the Qing Dynasty at all.

As soon as she heard him say this, Huang Xiaohua figured it out. But he wasn't prepared to do the other party anything, because the current situation was what he wanted to see.

And not only is he not prepared to help, but he is also prepared to make the situation worse.

So, he said, "And my lord, you may not know? In our United Empire, those reporters who write newspapers are simply uncrowned kings, and no one can stop them from taking care of them. ”

"So powerful? Isn't that more powerful than the imperial history of the imperial court? ”

Not only He Shen, but even the Qing Dynasty ministers who came with him were surprised by Huang Xiaohua's statement.

However, the cunning He Shen did not easily believe Huang Xiaohua. He felt that the reason why the other party said this was obviously that he was ready to excuse himself and was not ready to help them.

At this point in the conversation, it was natural that He Shen and Lord He had to offer their own prices, so that the other party could help him, so Lord He slowly took out a silver ticket from his sleeve in front of the entourage of hundreds of officials.

"This is a little meaning, not a respect, you know, in our Sijiu City, there are a lot of delicious foods. Lord Huang might as well go out and taste more when he has time. ”

Hearing this, Huang Xiaohua knew that he was ridiculing him for not paying attention to food culture, however, he obviously had the same idea as He Shen in his heart, but the silver ticket handed over could not be pretended to be ignored.

So, he didn't hesitate to pick up the silver ticket, and then he thought about it and it was wrong, so he immediately summoned a family member and asked him to take out the silver ticket, and said to He Shen with a smile, now I finally have some capital to experience the life of Sijiu City.

He Shen is obviously very satisfied with his statement, according to your past experience, he can get the guidance and help he wants.

Things basically didn't go beyond his imagination, but Huang Xiaohua whispered to him very mysteriously: "If you want to say that you can't manage them, it's not true." Although they are all ordinary people, they can exercise the power of imperial history, but, after all, we still have the government, and the imperial court has a special agency to manage them, as long as the imperial court sets the tone, they naturally can't talk nonsense. ”

As soon as He Shen heard him say this, he knew that his 10,000 taels of silver were not in vain.

At the same time, he confirmed his guess even more, Huang Xiaohua was just a shirk before, and now, he should sincerely help him.

From her words, He Shen could also guess that this matter could only be entrusted to him, after all, there was no direct connection between He Sheng and the court of the United Empire.

However, the matter is not over here, Huang Xiaohua seems to have guessed that he is about to leave here with a good word, but how could he easily let go of this important minister.

I only heard Huang Xiaohua say slowly: "The institution that manages those civilian bathrooms is called the Ministry of Press and Publication, and the Ministry of Shangshu also happens to visit you." ”

Hearing him say this, all the other ministers, including Hefei, understood that Huang Xiaohua could only be used as a referral to lead them to this key person, and as for whether they could negotiate the matter, it depended on their own skills.

But this is also very good, it is better than not finding a way, so everyone does not feel that this night is wronged, not to mention, it is the money of the rich and the middle court.

So, Huang Xiaohua led the Qing Dynasty ministers to a secluded place in the backyard, which had been arranged before, and hung with all kinds of paintings, most of which were Western oil paintings, however, most of them were also realistic style.

Although this series of paintings nominally belongs to that Shangshu, they are placed here for another purpose.

Because of Lang Shining, all the ministers know that Western painting methods make it easier to paint paintings that are close to reality. However, when they saw koalas and lemurs that they had never seen before, they were all amazed, and then, they saw a picture of a pregnant woman, on which were all famous people from ancient and modern times.

And then there are maps of various places. Maps, which were still regarded as important military secrets at that time, were hung in front of them in such a grand manner, so that some of the ministers could not wait to spit back these maps, of course, they could not do it blatantly, so they had to use their brains and try their best to remember more content.

And then there is a diagram of history known as the Long River of History. This five-meter-long scroll shows the social changes in human history from the Paleolithic Age to the future society.

Some of this content naturally aroused the suspicion of the Qing Dynasty ministers, however, they had already learned from the newspapers early on that these people were from two hundred years later and knew a lot of things that they did not know.

For example, they know their future, that is, what will happen after them, while the ministers of the Qing Dynasty only know the history before the Qing Dynasty, but they do not know what happened after the Qing Dynasty.

Looking at the records on the picture scroll, the Qing Dynasty fell into a situation of mass beating by foreign powers more than 40 years later. Since then, it has been in decline step by step, and finally collapsed under the wave of what is known as the democratic revolution.

From their point of view, the Qing Dynasty was still a powerful Celestial Empire, how could it be defeated by the barbarians they looked down on in just over forty years.

However, He Shen and Lord He don't seem to think so, he knows that the rise and fall of dynasties, the cycle of five virtues, this is a fate that cannot be shaken off, every dynasty, both when he was in his heyday, there was a moment of its decline, this kind of law called the cycle of chaos by the ancients, has been shrouded in ancient Chinese history.

Therefore, in the eyes of He Shen and his lord, the Qing Dynasty can continue for two or three hundred years like the Han Dynasty, the Tang Dynasty, and the Song Dynasty, and it is already a very successful dynasty.

"Everyone, don't be greedy, my Qing Dynasty, it is already very good to have nearly three hundred years of national fortune."

Hearing that He Shen and the adults said this, everyone had no choice but to pause the discussion and nodded yes.

At this time, Huang Xiaohua suddenly appeared in front of them, and said a little apologetically: "That Shangshu went out to play, and he is not at home at this time, I'm really sorry, I have already sent someone to find him, but I'm afraid he will have to come back after a while, everyone, you see, do you wait here for a while, or come back tomorrow." ”

"Since Huada has already sent someone to look for him, let's wait a little longer, or if we come back tomorrow, what if he goes out to play again? What to do here, now that he's back, I find out we're gone, what a rudeness. ”

A young official, at the first time, expressed his opinion.

This was just in line with Huang Xiaohua's wishes, so everyone sat down and discussed the paintings while drinking tea.

At this time, some people asked curiously, why are there so many paintings here?

Huang Xiaohua immediately put on a posture of answering everyone's questions and said: "This Shangshu is in charge of press and publication affairs, since it is publishing, there will naturally be a lot of literary and artistic works, in fact, there are not only paintings here, but also all kinds of books, I don't believe you come with me." ”

Huang Xiaohua knew that those paintings had successfully piqued their interest, and all he had to do now was bring them to the bookshelf. There is a record on it that they want to know the most.

"Qing Historical Manuscript." Another official cried out in surprise, and this time, they found a history book that recorded the rise and fall of their dynasty.

Everyone was naturally very concerned about the fate of their country, so they rushed to read the book, of course, before they started, they also had to look at the faces of He Shen and the adults, but at this time, they saw He Shen and the adults, and walked forward calmly, took the set of books, and dismantled them into their arms.

"I'm going to take it back to show the emperor."

This perfect reason made everyone shut up.

Huang Xiaohua frowned, this was not what he expected. If the emperor saw it first, it might not be the result he wanted, so he fanned the flames a little and said, "And my lord." Your Majesty has just ascended the throne, and you will tell him the fate of your kingdom for more than 100 years, especially the history of many sufferings, do you think this is appropriate? In fact, sometimes, as a minister, I would rather be bitter in my heart than let His Majesty the Emperor burden too much, don't you say? ”

As he said this, he kept frowning.

The good voice slowly understood his words, and it seemed that this young man from the United Empire also knew that the relationship between him and the emperor was very delicate.

Then, Zhou Tao recorded the fate of himself and Emperor Jiajing, and he had to read it himself.
