258 circumnavigating the world
The Age of Discovery is coming, which is what Liu Hong values the most. This is also the result that he has been sparing no effort to achieve after crossing over to Dahan. Although in this era, there were no two important waterways, the Panama Canal and the Suez Canal, which took a lot of time to navigate. However, as long as the fleet is good enough, it can definitely be qualified for the mission of the Great Voyage. And once the Han Dynasty entered the Age of Discovery, the horizons of the Han Dynasty could be broadened, and the Han Dynasty could become closer to the world. In this way, Liu Hong doesn't have to worry, Dahan is also thrown away by the booming world like another time and space.
Of course, judging from the current situation, as long as the Han continues to develop like this, the possibility of being thrown away by the world is quite small. However, it is not impossible to return to a small one. Therefore, even if it is to be prepared, Liu Hong has to carry out the great voyage.
"There is finally an excellent giant ship, and the next step is to guide the progress of the Great Voyage as soon as possible, so that the entire Han Dynasty will enter the Age of Great Navigation." After making up his mind, Liu Hong began to think about how to guide this era of discovery, "Otherwise, I'll just do a round-the-world voyage." ”
"yes, that's a great idea." Liu Hong made up his mind in an instant. After all, like those seafaring trades, the Han has been doing it for a long time. However, trade alone, under the idea of the Chinese people valuing agriculture over commerce, was not enough to guide the Han Dynasty into the Age of Discovery. After all, in another plane, this is all proven. And if we want the Han to enter the Age of Discovery, we need people to pay attention to navigation. But to do that, there must be big events that can arouse people's interest.
What is it that can attract people's attention? In navigation, this circumnavigation is one of them. After all, in Dahan, there is a question about the fact that the earth is round. It's still been debated. Just proving this is a great gimmick worth hype. If this great voyage is to be involved with his wedding, it will definitely attract everyone's attention.
"Okay, let Magellan rest, we have done this round-the-world voyage." Liu Hong immediately made up his mind, "This round-the-world voyage will set off on the day of my wedding." In this way, it can be regarded as a special ceremony for my wedding, which is even more attention-grabbing. ”
Circumnavigating the globe. As long as you explain it, there will be a special person to handle it, and you don't have to worry about Liu Hong at all. However, Liu Hong saw another news, which made him very happy again. Because he saw it, the luxury cruise ship he customized. It was also completed at the same time as the Super Megaship.
"There are luxury cruise ships, and the Grand Canal has been opened. So after the big wedding. I can take my queen and concubines with me. Went on a honeymoon on a luxury cruise. Thinking of this, Liu Hong was completely excited.
You must know that the canal built by Liu Hong is very close to the Sui and Tang Grand Canal in later generations. North to Zhuo County, south to Yuhang. Daxing in the west and the sea in the east. However, the canal he built was connected to more places than the Sui and Tang Grand Canals. For example, Jinan, the capital he set to move, is within the scope of this canal. That's it. As long as you travel along the canal, you can't say that you can visit all over the big Han, and it is definitely not a problem to visit most of the big Han.
The things after the big wedding have been planned by Liu Hong. But now, he is busy all day long about the wedding. At the same time, the girls who had passed the preliminary recruitment were also sent to the court one after another.
After the recruitment, the girl who entered the court can basically be counted as Liu Hong's woman. The only difference between them is the difference in identity. A woman with good luck is favored by the emperor and can become a concubine. If you are unlucky, you can only stay in the palace as an ordinary palace maid. Although the women named the emperor, they have not even seen the emperor several times in their lives.
What is the fate of these women in the future, Liu Hong didn't think about it at all. However, when he heard that the concubines he had chosen for him were sent, he was really excited for a while. Don't look at the inner courtyard of this palace, there has never been a shortage of women. And as the emperor, he can definitely pick at will. But when I think of this legendary scene of the emperor choosing a concubine, especially when he chooses for him, how can he not be excited by the guy who looks like a dick more than the emperor.
"No, I must first meet my future women. Let's see how many there are, and the beauties of my heart. ”
Thinking of this, Liu Hong was going to the court. But before he could leave, his mother, Empress Dowager Dong, came to him.
"Hong'er, look at it, there is someone here who you like." As she spoke, Empress Dowager Dong handed over a large scroll of portraits.
"Mother, what is this?" Liu Hong asked curiously.
"Alas, you kid, you're pretty shrewd in other ways, but in this regard, why are you so stupid." As she spoke, Empress Dowager Dong pointed to this scroll of portraits and said, "These are the portraits of women through recruitment. Let you choose which ones you like. And the person who picks is the concubine who got married with you. ”
"Queen Mother, this thing is vaguely drawn, how can you see the real person directly." As he spoke, Liu Hong handed the portrait to the Empress Dowager Dong and said, "I just want to go to the court to meet these women, so that by the way, I will also complete the task assigned by the queen mother, which can be regarded as killing two birds with one stone." ”
"Hong'er is going to the court? That's not going to work! Empress Dowager Dong said with a straight face: "Even those who are small families know to avoid it, and they don't let men and women meet before marriage." It's like our royal family, how can we not pay attention. So, this court, you can't go before the wedding, you should look at the portrait and choose. ”
"My day, the portrait of a lady drawn with a brush is far from the real appearance, how can I choose this thing." Liu Hong looked at those portraits for a long time, but he didn't see which one was a beauty, so he had to say to the Empress Dowager Dong: "Queen Mother, it's not that I don't listen to you, but these portraits you brought are really impossible for people to distinguish, what kind of person is in this painting!" ”
Empress Dowager Dong took those portraits, looked left and right, and said: "The queen mother thinks that these portraits are quite similar to real people, Hong'er, why can't you tell the difference?" ”
"Alas, what kind of eyes are you doing, even this one feels like this." Liu Hong said after a while: "Queen Mother, this painting really doesn't look like it. Otherwise, I won't go to this court. But I've summoned those women over to take a look, it's always okay, right? ”
"Hong'er, this summoned them to see, is there a difference between you and you going to see it in person?" Regarding Liu Hong's rogue idea, Empress Dowager Dong was very speechless and said: "Hong'er, such a thing, our royal family can also ignore it." However, since there is such a tradition among the people, let's avoid it and try to be auspicious, anyway, it's just a matter of a few days. ”
"Queen Mother, I am the emperor, and all evils are inviolable, in fact, I really don't need to care about this!" For this matter, Liu Hong still wants to fight for it.
"If you don't invade it, you can't do it." Seeing that reasoning didn't make sense, Empress Dowager Dong was directly unreasonable. She threw those portraits to Liu Hong and said, "Hong'er, you still look at these portraits and choose, and the queen mother will come back in a few days to ask you for the results." ”
"Ah, how so!" Looking at the Empress Dowager Dong in the distance, Liu Hong was a little dumbfounded. However, this evasive thing can be regarded as a mother's heart for her son. Liu Hong, who was an orphan in his previous life, felt this strong family affection, and he really couldn't bear to go against it. "Forget it, even if I don't go to see it myself, I have a way."
Thinking of this, Liu Hong called Zhao Rao, "Wet nurse, the queen mother asked me to choose a concubine to marry together." But he didn't let me see it in person, and only gave me such a portrait, how do you think this makes me pick?! ”
"Your Majesty, it's so pitiful." As she spoke, Zhao Rao spread her hands and said, "But Your Majesty, since the Queen Mother has spoken, even if the nurse wants to help you, you don't dare to go against the Queen Mother's decision." ”
"Nurse, you don't need to go against the Queen Mother's decision." As he spoke, Liu Hong handed her the camera, "Nurse, you can use this camera." Please use this thing to take pictures of those women, so that I can choose them. ”
"Well, that's fine." Saying that, Zhao Rao asked with a smile on her face: "Your Majesty, do you need a nurse to take a picture of their undressed appearance, and let Your Majesty choose together?" ”
"Nurse, in that case, it couldn't be better." Saying that, Liu Hong also had a bad smile on his face.
"Your Majesty, just look at it, the nurse will make sure it's done for you."
Zhao Rao took the camera and went to take photos in a hurry. At this time, Jia Xu ran over, "Your Majesty, the people from the research institute came to report that after the improvement of the master craftsman Ma Jun, the kind of camera that can show the effect of the activity has finally been made." ”
"A camera that shows the effect of the event?" Subsequently, Liu Hong reacted, it wouldn't be a movie that was made. Liu Hong pondered for a while, it should be this thing, "Alas, it's not easy, it's just a visual temporary application, and it has been engaged in it for nearly three years." ”
"Let's go and see this thing." Liu Hong is quite curious about this big man's movie, knowing that this thing has been made, he doesn't want to stay for a moment.
When Liu Hong came to the research institute, a large group of people were surrounding Ma Jun to watch him show the movie. And when Liu Hong saw the effect of this movie, he couldn't help but slap his thigh, "Yes, this is the thing." ”
At this moment, Liu Hong was really excited. After all, in Liu Hong's opinion, since this movie is already there, will AV be far away?! (To be continued......)
