140 luxurious platforms

It's the same platform, but it's bigger than any other platform ever seen before. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info Yes, huge, and adjectives such as magnificence, the most impressive thing about this platform is its unparalleled scale.

There is probably no station in the world that is so large and dazzling, and there seems to be no station that connects most of the stations in the world with railroad tracks that radiate like a star map. The station is called Gyeonggi Main Station and is the largest railway station in the world.

Of course, this is also one of the most luxurious railway stations in the world, and even has the reputation of "the Forbidden City of train stations". In the royal passage of this station, there are even original works of artists from France, Hungary, Austria and other countries - of course, taken back from these countries a long time ago.

Every platform here is carved with beams and paintings, and every inch of the overhead shelter from the wind and rain has precious murals or sculptures of famous artists. Because the royal family needs tradition and nostalgia, the Forbidden City largely retains the original charm of the Hongwu Emperor of the Ming Empire, and a series of modern buildings that appeared later, the Ming Empire began to show off its powerful wealth to the whole world.

For example, in the flower-like decoration of the giant glass splicing in the center of platform 19, the Buddha statue with a kind face was transported back from the temple in Nepal by more than 4,000 musketeers. I heard that in order for this Buddha statue to reach the Ming Dynasty smoothly, thousands of slaves died along the way.

For example, the canopy roof on the entire platform is 44 meters high from the highest point above the ground, which can be said to be a miracle in the history of human architecture at that time. All the world's top designers were hired to build it, and a variety of new architectural solutions were adopted. The roof of the platform shed rises and falls for nearly 500 meters, but only a few pillars are used to support it, and visitors here are amazed and amazed by the scale of the building.

This is only the longitudinal length of the station along the tracks, and the number of platforms arranged horizontally one after the other has increased several times in the past hundred years. From the time of the expedition to Britain, the Ming Empire attached great importance to the development and construction of railways, and the lessons learned from the failure of the expedition also prompted the Ming Empire to continue to build railway lines in order to consolidate its rule over the vast territory.

As time passes, the soldiers who once stood here, waiting to climb onto the train and go to distant places to fight for their country, are long gone, and their figures have been buried in the dust of history. But this station still stands here, guarding the glorious years that have long passed.

In today's Ming Empire, many people have forgotten what kind of glory their grandfather was in that era. Most of them remember only the defeat and the betrayal of the Ceylonese at hand.

However, because of the strong heritage and the accumulation of a hundred years, the Ming Empire still shows that grace and luxury in all details. For example, the world's largest railway station is the Ming Gyeonggi Main Station, the second largest railway station is the Nanzhili Railway Station of the Ming Empire, and the third largest railway station is in Shanghai, and it is not in the territory of the Ming Empire until the fourth largest railway station, which is the London Railway Station in the United Kingdom......

Gyeonggi Main Station has a special feature that no other station has, that is, Gyeonggi Main Station has a special platform for the imperial family used by His Majesty the Emperor to use it when the Emperor travels. With the changes of the times, the special platform for the royal family began to be opened to the nobility of the empire, and was also used as a special ceremonial platform for receiving foreign royal visits and high-level diplomatic events.

On this platform now, Zhu Mu, who has just succeeded the Ming Empire as the emperor, is standing there with his hands behind his back, surrounded by some accompanying officials, as well as secretaries and a large number of guards. Zhu Mu heard that Wang Jue had received his will, and immediately returned from the front line in Liaodong, and at what time did he bring people and horses here to greet this dusty hero.

At least Wang Jue helped him stabilize the situation in Liaodong, at least Wang Jue helped him recapture a large amount of land, he, as an emperor, should take time out to comfort the heroes who came back from the battlefield no matter what, isn't it?

"Your Majesty, it seems that the etiquette is a little too much." An official in charge of etiquette reminded Zhu Mu all the way that he should not treat his subordinates too favorably, as it was easy for his courtiers to be pampered and arrogant, and finally cause a catastrophe. Now that Zhu Mu is standing on the platform, he is still dutifully reminding the master of this empire to try to "do things according to the rules" according to the fixed procedures.

Zhu Mu seemed to be a little unimpressed by this kind of advice, he still looked at the direction of the upcoming train, with a vague smile on the corner of his mouth. Hearing his subordinates persuade him like this, he didn't look back, but just took out a hand and waved it back, signaling the other party to lean back and not disturb him: "I have my own ideas, so don't persuade him anymore." ”

The advisor in charge of etiquette raised his head slightly, saw the back of Zhu Mu's swaying hand, shook his head helplessly, and slowly retreated backwards. He knew that no matter how much he persuaded him, the emperor in front of him looked young, but in fact he was more determined than the older former monarch, and it was difficult for him to change things once he decided.

On the far side of the railroad tracks, there was the sound of a flute sounding before the train entered the station, Zhu Mu turned his head sideways, looked at the etiquette consultant who had retreated to the row of advisors behind him, and commanded: "Let the military band play, I want to take care of my general!" ”

"Tick, answer, dang, dang, dang......" Under the instruction of the conductor, the military band began to beat the waist drum and sound the horn, to be honest, most of these instruments are not traditional Chinese instruments, but more of them are made of Western orchestral instruments. This is a tradition left over from the musket era, and things like the pipa and huqin are naturally impossible to command the soldiers to advance in unison with music points on the battlefield filled with gunsmoke......

As the military band played the welcome song, a swarthy steam locomotive also slowly drove in front of Emperor Zhu Mu, pulling a row of empty carriages, and stopped in front of this magnificent platform little by little. (To be continued.) )
