Chapter 437: Jiaozhou Mingtang
Ouyang Xuan really couldn't remember why there was another empress in Russia, what happened to Elizabeth Petrovna? Ouyang Xuan was a little confused, and hurriedly asked Sima Sima of the Nordic Division of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to inquire about it, it turned out to be the daughter of Peter I, ranked third, who came to power through a coup d'état six years ago, restored the policy of Peter I, drove out the German forces, and drove the regent Bilong out of Russia.
As for the request for business, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs can call the shots, and the border negotiations do not seem to be cheaper or better with the mentality of the Chinese people now. Ouyang Xuan shook his head after listening to Sima's story, but asked for a good reception, the honor guard is still borne by the cheetah team for the time being, in this era, except for Huaxia, there are film and television records, other countries don't even have cameras, don't worry about leaks.
At this time, the Central Plains was also undergoing reform, and Hongli learned a lesson from the last turmoil and lifted the literary prison. A large number of Han Chinese were used as officials in the court, the imperial examination system was reformed, and the university scholars were abolished. In the army, the Eight Banners Forbidden Army and the Manchu and Han New Army were set up to relax the Liao and encourage agricultural immigration.
As soon as Ouyang Xuan returned to Chang'an, Gongsun Diemao did another comprehensive inspection for Ouyang Xuan, and after confirming that the results were very satisfactory, he said to Ouyang Xuan: "Do you remember what our elders told you?" Your power and endless life are either hidden in the world, or you have to use power to maintain them. You must remember that if you do not have the power you have, you will become the object of study and even the target of murder by the laity. Among the powerful nobles, there are many people who want to live forever like you. According to the technology that has been disclosed, we can't do it now, we can only achieve the ideal longevity, but we can't achieve both ability and longevity like you. Although your existence is fortunate to the people, it is also the envy of the people. Now that power is fundamental to your future, and now that thermal weapons are known to the world and technology is advancing, your situation will be more dangerous. And the base in Kezhou will also be the target of public criticism, and the industries under your name will also become prey in the eyes of everyone, especially the space-time transportation company and the energy company. Be prepared for the wealth you have now to last this empire for a thousand years. I think it's okay, it's better to deal with your property properly, and before you return to the rift, it's best to complete the assignment."
Ouyang Xuan listened very patiently to Gongsun Diemao's words, and also nodded and said: "I am gradually handing over these industries until they are completely divested, and this process will take about two hundred years, or longer. I'm going to take the whole Guard back to that rift and follow me to another plane."
"It's okay to go, but there must be enough graupel energy and seven-dimensional space-time fragments to change the time control procedure of their graupel energy group, otherwise the space-time tearing effect will tear them apart, and finally turn into a graupel energy group, absorbing the graupel energy group of reincarnated space-time, it will make them as powerful as you, and I am afraid that it will be uncontrollable at that time, you have to think twice." It's better not to do that, you can give them your throne or your wealth for the remaining three hundred years. All you need to do is go back to that plane with the technology and the necessary equipment."
Ouyang Xuan nodded, this is indeed a fact, if it really comes to that time and space, they all go their own way, I'm afraid that the world will become chaotic. And Cheng Yi is a typical example, hundreds of years have passed, they still have different intentions, and now the Guards' loyalty to Ouyang Xuan comes from genetic modification, and the other is the thinking that is forcibly instilled, it is Ouyang Xuan who gave them a god-like life, and there is also the transformation of the subconscious. And Cheng Yi will have different intentions in such a state, although he used suicide to apologize, it also shows that although it has been transformed, the default mission of the Hail Energy Group cannot be changed.
"I've thought about it simply, I'll think about it when I go back."
"Don't forget to learn about the history of other parallel planes, or you will have unexpected trouble."
"Well, I know, those things are in my memory. There are still nearly 300 years to go back, and there is no hurry. I have time to remember my original time and space history, and I will give a complete account before I leave."
"There's only so much I can do to help you, and time is running out for me. For the remaining twenty years or so, I will write a book of the Kezhou base and the other technologies of this plane, as well as the location of me and the tribes before you came to this plane on a tablet computer. Left to you on that plane."
"There is Mr. Lao Gongsun, thank you here."
"You have to pay more attention, and if there is a problem in your body, use the device I made to fix it. The only thing in this world that can kill you is poison."
Ouyang Xuan and Gongsun Diemao chatted in Jin'an Hall for three whole months, from governing the country to scientific research, from culture and art to military warfare, from social life to the form of the universe, Gongsun Diemao once again taught Ouyang Xuan a lesson. even took three days to give Ouyang Xuan a lesson in power strategy, systematically teaching Ouyang Xuan in political games. At first, it was only Ouyang Xuan who listened to it, but later Ouyang Xuan simply called the generals above the camp level of the Inner Palace, the Cheetah Team, the Wolf Warrior Team, and the Guards Army to the Jin'an Hall to listen to Gongsun Diemao's teachings. This is a rare opportunity, a person who knows the world best at the moment.
Zuo Rui and the four divine beasts are also free for a day, except for the Great Qin Palace, Jinghan Palace, Military and Political Palace, and Qinzheng Palace, Jiuding Palace is unguarded for him, and he can walk at will. After listening to Gongsun Diemao's lecture for two days, it was like listening to a book from heaven, so I gave up. Every day, he takes four divine beasts to wander around Jiuding Palace and Jiuding Square.
The time of the visit of the Empress of Russia was agreed upon by both parties and was scheduled for July 1748, a year later. The two sides first negotiated on issues such as commerce and trade, borders, and the ownership of the Turks, and then signed a treaty based on the results of the negotiations that year when the Empress visited China, and the place of negotiation was chosen at Narcissus Pass. The Chinese negotiators, headed by Foreign Minister Fu Yanchen (former commander of the Second Army of the Yulin Army), took Ouyang Xuan's mission to Shuixian Pass in person to start a year-long Sino-Russian negotiations.
During the negotiations, various theaters in China took turns to conduct live-fire military exercises at Shuixian Pass, and Fu Yanchen, who was a senior general, took the Russian delegation to visit the military exercises from time to time, and acted as a commentator on the spot, giving a detailed introduction to each weapon and branch of the army, so as to give the Russians a deterrent. Because there was still nearly a year to go, Ouyang Xuan signed an edict to set up a guard of honor, which was specifically responsible for foreign affairs and royal ceremonial ceremonies. This guard of honor will be selected from the whole army, including the military band, which is jointly trained by the cheetah team and the guard regiment, and belongs to the guard regiment, which is known as the guard regiment honor guard battalion to the outside world, and consists of the national flag company, the honor guard company, and the military music company, all of which are strengthened company establishments, and the station is the newly established protocol pavilion on the south side of Huayuan.
After sending off Gongsun Diemao, Ouyang Xuan also felt a lot of emotion, an old man who had experienced countless ups and downs in the world, an old man who was almost on the verge of death due to lack of hail energy, and an old man who brought countless wealth to the Chinese, but now he was about to come to the end of his life, somewhat helpless. Seeing Zuo Rui wandering around Jiuding Palace with nothing to do, Ouyang Xuan shook his head helplessly. Turning his head to Wei Yu, he said, "Prepare, I want to travel all over the country and visit various places." "No!".
Ouyang Xuan returned to the Water Pavilion and asked people to call Zuo Rui, who was racing against Buick. "Sister-in-law, I want to travel all over the country, will you go with me?"
"Go, if you don't go out for a walk, the old body is going crazy."
"Haha, then clean up, set off in three days, and go to Brother Zhou's mausoleum to worship first." Zuo Rui nodded thoughtfully, said, "It's time to take a look", and then took the two Phoenix Emperors back to Xuanyuan Palace gloomily.
Now Jiaozhou is located in the south of South America, including Argentina, southern Chile, Uruguay, Rio Grande do Sul in southern Brazil, the southernmost state in China, after more than 300 years of development and construction, it is now one of the main producing areas of agricultural and animal husbandry products in China, especially Jiaoyang cattle are the best-selling. Equestrian, horse racing and other sports are popular here. With a population of 14 million, it is a medium-sized state with eight seats in the Chamber of Deputies and two seats in the Senate, with a total of 21 counties, and the state capital is in the city of Golden Bay (southeast of Buños Aires) in the county of Mingwan (Río de la Plata).
Ouyang Xuan's high-profile arrival really made the people here ecstatic, and the golden dragon flag fluttered high in front of the Jinwan City State Government Building. After only three days in Jinwan City, Ouyang Xuan and his entourage went south to Xihai County's Luxi City (San Diego South), a Luxi River (Maipo River) passes through the city, the whole city is surrounded by four thousand meters of mountains, with beautiful scenery and pleasant climate, and it is also the location of the Chinese Mountaineering Base and the Institute of Volcanology of the Kyushu Academy of Sciences. There is a magnificent mausoleum at the foot of the mountain on the east side of Wushan Mountain in the east of the city, and Ouyang Xuan's convoy came to Luxi City, and the first stop stopped here.
"How could this scholar think of burying himself so far away," Zuo Rui said, looking at the inscription on the mausoleum.
"It's the volcano he's always wanted to see with his own eyes, and it's the place he's dreamed of the most. It is also the location of the Ming Hall, which has excellent feng shui. The snow-capped mountain opposite is a volcano, there are two volcanoes here, and it is also his will here", Ouyang Xuan said, pointing to a snow-capped mountain in the distance.
"What's so nice about the volcano, it's bare and doesn't even grow grass. What kind of place is this, how is it the same as Mohu, why is it so cold here in the summer."
"This is the southern hemisphere, the opposite of Chang'an. I'll tell you later, today is to worship Yu Ting, and I'll take you to go shopping later, and I have fulfilled Yu Ting's wish."
"The scholar's thoughts, I don't have the heart to care about him. If it weren't for your Nizi, huh...... Haha, your little girl is not as happy as me, it originally belonged to her, but I enjoyed it, hurry, hurry".
Ouyang Xuan shook his head helplessly, and ordered someone to prepare some incense, candles and wine, incense according to the Central Plains ceremony, pay tribute, bow to the mausoleum, and burn the table to repair the mausoleum. After a set of processes, it has been a morning. In Ouyang Xuan's heart, the status of this mausoleum is also quite high, it is completely built in accordance with royal specifications, and as for the burial goods inside, only Ouyang Xuan knows. Tomb robbery in China is a felony, especially in the Chinese royal tombs. However, if the mausoleum before the founding of the country is accidentally dug up, the land belongs to whoever owns it, and the burial goods in the mausoleum belong to whomever it is. If you know that it is an ancient tomb, and then go to steal and excavate, it will constitute a crime. Nowadays, more than 1,000 ancient tombs have been discovered in Huaxia before the founding of the People's Republic of China, only a small number of them have been unintentionally excavated, most of them have been excavated by the archaeological excavation of the Huaxia Museum in Kyoto, and a very small number of them have been discovered during the excavation and excavated urgently.
Don't look at Zuo Rui's stubbornness, but when he was repairing the soil, he was also in tears, seeing things and thinking about people. Ouyang Xuan still knows Zuo Rui well, and never hits her at this time, so that the guards and the guard regiment are far away, and let her talk to each other here, after all, they have been husband and wife for ten years, although they look like each other, they still have many years of family affection.
No one could hear what she was talking about, but she had been babbling all morning. It wasn't until noon that he called Ouyang Xuan to come forward to help re-engrave the stele, "The original inscription was erected by you, there is always a little debt, this time I re-erected it, you engrave it." Carving a monument is the only one in the world with the best craftsmanship."
"If you want to engrave something, I'll go and prepare the stele first." After speaking, Ouyang Xuan turned around and instructed the soldiers of the guard regiment to dig up a mound not far away, and there was a white marble stele buried in it, which was carved completely according to the style and size of the Central Plains.
Everyone worked together to put the tombstone on a pedestal twelve feet away from the original tombstone, dug up the floating soil, exposed the base of the stele, and inlaid the stele on it just the right size. Ouyang Xuan took out the meteorite short knife, took the inscription written by Zuo Rui, glanced at it, and smiled. The knife visually measured the size of the stele and determined the font size. Only then did he wield a knife and carved on the stele: the tomb of the late husband Cangzhou Zhou Mansion Jun Yu Ting, side note: Wife Linzhou Zuo Rui Li, Huaxia June 1862. After reading the inscription engraved by Ouyang Xuan, Zuo Rui snorted and said, "You can't carve one less word, I will make him miserable in the next life."
"There are some things that are more important than the dead, so don't fight", Ouyang Xuan took three gold coins and asked them to find a lacquer maker in a nearby village to paint the tombstone handwriting. For lunch, a stove was set up in front of the tomb for a picnic. All the ingredients that have been strictly tested are purchased from all over the world, and Dongfang Xu and the chef team of the guard regiment are in charge to make a delicious meal. Sitting on the ground and looking at the snow-capped mountains in the distance is also a special interest.
"What's on your shelf on that snowy mountain? So big? ”。 Zuo Rui looked at the top of the snowy mountain and asked.
"Volcano controller, used to collect volcanic eruption dust and magma. In this way, there is no need to worry about the volcanic eruption having a drastic impact on the surrounding area." Wei Yu replied for Ouyang Xuan.
"Who took the money? How much does that cost".
"Haha, this is my property, and this magma and dust are worth a lot. There's more to it in Wildfire County." Ouyang Xuan took a sip of seafood soup and replied.
Zuo Rui didn't say anything anymore, finished his lunch with a sullen head, took his compass and took Buick Guli around the surroundings, and came back and said to Ouyang Xuan: "Who chose the place?" ”。
"Of course I chose it, how about it, not bad?"
"Well, it's good, when I'm old in the future, I'll bury it here, this is where the dragon vein is. If the volcano is not controlled, it is a rotten eye and a blind dragon, and if it is not controlled and erupted, it is a double dragon playing with pearls. Aren't you afraid that me and the scholar will take away your feng shui? ”。
"I'm really not afraid of this, I don't have a mausoleum in this world. The location of the Houling is also stronger than here, do you want to go and see it."
"Go, why don't you go, since you don't want it, then I want it, this is where my Ming Hall is, don't grab feng shui with your Houling, let's keep it for your Nizi in this life, hehe", Zuo Rui showed the evil smile of the little old lady again.
Ouyang Xuan shook his head helplessly, and said to Wei Yu: "When it's over, I'll leave for Cixi City to listen to the reports of the officials and councilors here." Arrange someone to take Mrs. Zhou around this place with excellent scenery." "No!".
Back in Cixi City, Ouyang Xuan went straight to the city government and summoned officials at all levels, representatives of parliamentarians, and speakers of Xihai County, Xiaoxi City, and other cities and towns in Xihai County to listen to their reports on governance and the difficulties they encountered. This is also what Ouyang Xuan must do when he is inspecting. Wei Yu found a travel agency in Luxi City, accompanied by five guards and ten guards from the guard group, and took Zuo Rui to start the travel mode. This travel agency also attaches great importance to this big order, although I don't know what the background of the person is, but I know that this is not an ordinary person, and it is enough to send the emperor's guards to escort it all, and it has selected several scenic spots in Xihai County that are well-known throughout the country, and the guards are escorted by the guard regiment to drive royal special vehicles to various scenic spots.
