That is, when the Qingqi Garden was full of fire, in the face of the threat of foreigners' guns, he signed the humiliating "Beijing Treaty".

"I can't imagine that after so many years, I can see the remnants ......of the beautiful scenery of the past again," Empress Dowager Renxi choked up, "If Emperor Daxing can see the return of the national treasure, I don't know how to be happy ......."

"Taking copper as a mirror, you can be dressed properly, and taking history as a mirror, you can know the rise and fall." Prince Jing stroked the bronze beast's head, and his words carried indescribable emotion, "Today's return of the national treasure can be a lesson for today. Past experience, if not forgotten, is a guide for the future.. If we don't work hard to improve ourselves, it is difficult to guarantee that there will be no day when there will be no decline in the future. I hope that all the ministers will have insight into the true feelings of China and foreign countries in the world, and do not forget the reality of the fame, and forget the long-term plan if you are common, then the country will be very fortunate! All the people of the world are very fortunate! ”

"To say that the French lord is still a particular person, and the pieces sent back are all the fine products in the garden back then." Ren Xi smiled quietly, and pointed to the unfolded "Forty Views of Qingqi Garden" and said.

Before the destruction of Qingqi Garden, there were more than 100 garden groups, but only 40 scenes were drawn into the landscape. "Forty Views of Qingqi Garden" can be said to be the most accomplished Gongbi color painting in China's history. This set of drawings was drawn by the most famous court painters at that time, Tang Dai, Shen Yuan, Leng Mei and others over a period of 11 years according to the will of Emperor Hongli of the Qing Dynasty. In 9060, when the Anglo-French forces burned down the Qing Qi Garden, this precious set of painted paintings was looted by the French army. Dedicated to the French Emperor Napoleon III. It is kept in the Bibliothèque Nationale de Paris. All of them have been stamped with the museum's collection seal and become a "national treasure" of France. And this time, for the purpose of friendship between China and France, the French royal family returned this magnificent masterpiece to China.

After the painting of the Forty Scenes of Qingqi Garden, the poem was inscribed by the Quanlong Imperial Pen, and the Ministry of Industry Shangshu Wang Youdun wrote, which has extremely high painting artistic value and historical and cultural value. The architecture, spring stones and other landscapes depicted in "Forty Views of Qingqi Garden" are all in realistic style, so seeing "Forty Views of Qingqi Garden" is like seeing the grand scene of Qingqi Garden at that time. It is also equivalent to letting him visit Qingqi Garden, which can be said to be an extra favor.

"Sixth Master, come and see!" Empress Dowager Renxi pointed to a garden building on the picture scroll of "Wuling Spring", and said with a smile, "Do you remember this place from the sixth master?" ”

Prince Jing stepped forward in response, came to his mother's side, and looked at it carefully.

"Of course, the minister remembers that at that time of 'Yongqing Changchun', a painting of Gao Qipei was originally hung, which was collected and stored by order in December of the eleventh year of Rong Fang. The palace of Yongqing Changchun is also called the 'mountain and water state', and there is a plaque hanging on it. This plaque was originally hung in front of the back eaves of 'Yongqing Changchun', and was moved to the house in the first month of the fourth year of Quanlong. Hang to the north. There is a bronze medicine king Buddha in the hall. There is also a "multi-son picture" hanging in the apse of 'Yongqing Changchun', which was painted by Xu Yang in the 27th year of Quanlong. 'Yongqing Changchun' the northernmost fifteen rooms are called 'Quanshi self-entertainment', this room Rongfang hung the imperial book 'Mao Yu Zhai' plaque for seven years, and then it was easy to be 'Shui Rong Fengcui', Quanlong was finally named 'Quanshi self-entertainment' in five years. The small courtyard in the northwest of the 'Yongqing Changchun' hall is called 'Xingshuyuan', and here is the 'Chunfangzhai' where the Queen Mother received her ministers, and here is 'Hanmo Zhai', 'Sishun Zhai', 'Jishantang' and 'Fushou Ren'en'......"

"The sixth master has a good memory, hehe, in the past, the sleeping places of the concubines of the Daxing Emperor were all here: the three rooms on the west side of the hall of the 'Yongqing Changchun' hall were where I lived, and I was still a concubine at that time, and the woman's house (that is, the palace maid's work house) was in the south and west courtyard. The three east rooms and the west three rooms of the apse are inhabited by the nobles and the nobles respectively. The five rooms in the east of 'Quanshi Self-Entertainment' are inhabited by Ming Chang and Yinggui, and the three or four times in the west are Xin Chang in. The three main rooms of the 'Apricot Tree Courtyard' are inhabited by the noble people. In the back of the northwest and east courtyard, there are three main rooms where Li concubines live, and three rooms in the front main house live in nobles. The three main rooms in front of the west courtyard are inhabited by concubines. The concubines and maids are all in the nearby south room or wing room. 'Yongqing Changchun' concubines are equipped with beds and ondols in the dormitory, laying carpets, bed felts, curtains, mattresses, and mattresses when it is hot in summer. The dormitory has to build a swing frame every spring......" Empress Dowager Renxi said with a smile, "Thanks to Lin Yizhe, these places have been rebuilt now, and they are almost exactly the same as before. ”

Hearing the Empress Dowager Renxi talk about Lin Yizhe, Prince Jing couldn't help but sigh secretly in his heart.

"Lin Yizhe's talent is rare in the world, but it's a pity that he went too early......," Prince Jing sighed.

"Yes! If he is still here, it will not be a few years before this garden is repaired and foreign affairs are also done. Renxi also sighed, "Most of the treasures placed here were brought back by him, and when he went, I originally thought that France would not send back the treasures that were taken from our garden back then, but I never thought that the Lord would be extremely faithful, and this time I actually sent back the imperial swords and swords of Emperor Gaozong." ”

"Oh? How can this be? Prince Jing said in surprise. As for the matter of France returning the treasure again according to the agreement, in fact, he had received news from Tianjin Customs, but he did not know what these precious swords were returned by the French side.

"Sixth Master, please come and see." As Ren Xi spoke, Prince Jing came to a rosewood table, and Liu Shengyin, who was accompanying him, uncovered the brocade dragon silk covered with his own hands, and ten golden and exquisite swords appeared in front of Prince Jing.

The Daqian Dynasty was a dynasty that "immediately took the world", experienced the painstaking management of five generations of emperors of Danya, Dahan, Zhenyu, Shunzhi, Ningxu and Rongfang, and reached the Quanlong period, the country was strong and prosperous, and the territory was vast, which was called "the prosperous era of Ningquan". In order to educate his descendants to be prepared for danger in times of peace and "Xuanwei wins the prosperity, Zhaohui obeys the law, and is peaceful from afar, and eternally and forever", in the thirteenth year of Quanlong (8048), he specially ordered the palace internal affairs office to make 90 waist knives and 30 swords as permanent collections, warning future generations not to forget the ancestral system and advocating military equipment.

All of these imperial swords were made by the Ministry of Internal Affairs. The office is under the jurisdiction of the Internal Affairs Office of the Qianchao Palace. It is headed by the Minister of the Interior himself. It is an institution that specializes in the production and repair of various daily necessities and treasures for the emperor and the court. There are many workshops such as workshops, offices, and museums. There are jade works, paintings, mounted box works, leather works, Guangmu works, paint works, armor works, enamel works, carving works, leather works, guns and guns, clocks, Ruyi Pavilion, etc., and there are more than 30 works in the most prosperous time. Each item is made with its own division of labor and is completed together. The production of ninety waist knives was drawn by the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and the jade was made of jade handles. The gun department makes the blade, the wood makes the wooden sample of the knife, the carving is made of commercial patterns, the leather is made of leather sticks and written in Chinese, and the iron is used to make all the pieces of the knife, etc., and finally it is handed over to the Armament Institute for assembly. Emperor Quanlong took great pains to make the waist knife, and he had to personally inquire and arrange everything. From the initial drawings and wood patterns, to the number, name, year, and ornamentation of the knives, as well as the swords, materials, gold, scabbards, Nanmu boxes, and the Manchu and Chinese characters on the attached leather sticks, all acted in accordance with the "edict". Every time a process is completed. It must be handed over by the treasurer, the chief eunuch to the chief eunuch to submit to the Emperor Quanlong. After a detailed review, Emperor Quanlong issued a decree and proposed amendments. Ninety waist knives were made in the 13th year of Jeonlong (8048) and finally completed in the 60th year of Jeonlong (8095), in four batches. The first batch began in the thirteenth year of Quanlong and was completed in the twenty-second year of Quanlong, making 30 waist knives; The second batch was completed in the 44th year of Jeonlong (8079); The third batch was completed in the 58th year of Jeonlong (8093); The fourth batch was completed in the 60th year of Jeonlong (8095). Among the four batches of waist knives, the first batch of waist knives are about three feet, and the weight is between twenty-three taels and thirty-one taels; The second to fourth batch of waist knives, each weighing eighteen taels, its length, shape, drawing, style, etc. are basically the same as the first batch of waist knives, only the handguard, handle, scabbard is slightly different.

Xianfeng ten years, the Anglo-French alliance of the war of the great uprising, this batch of precious swords have more than 20 because of the war by the traitors out of the palace, sold to the French army, exiled to France, several of them were dedicated to the French Emperor Napoleon III, become the French royal collection, Lin Yizhe was alive, the French side will be the royal collection of the Quanlong imperial sword all returned, and to ensure the tracing of the treasures of the Qiangong that are in the people, today Prince Jing in front of these ten swords, is the French government to find and recover back, in accordance with Lin Yizhe's agreement to return.

Prince Jing couldn't help but reach out and pick up a treasure knife named "Zhenyuan" and carefully play with it.

This "Zhenyuan" treasure knife is a slender "S" shape, white jade handle, oval gauntlet, steel blade, near the chisel of gold, silver, red copper wire alternating patterns, one side of the inscription "Tianzi No. 27" and "Zhenyuan" knife name, the other side of the "Quanlong year" style, the section is decorated with a liter of dragon soaring between the mountains and rivers, implying the strength of the country, control freely, the meaning of the name of the knife; The head and tail ornaments of the knife are iron and gold hollow patterns, and the two hoops of the sheath are iron gold pan patterns, and bright yellow ribbons are tied on them, so they are hung. "Tianzi No. 27" and "Zhenyuan" waist knife is Quanlong 49 years (8084) to undertake, stored in the Forbidden City Ningshou Palace, the original number is "Dizi No. 15", Quanlong 58 years (8093) Quanlong Emperor ordered it to be withdrawn, changed to "Tianzi 27", thus it officially became "Tianzi" No. 30 waist knife one of the 30. It took 47 years to complete the complete production of 90 of the Quanlong Imperial Waist Knife. It is made of precious material, exquisite workmanship, sharp steel blade, beautiful ornamentation, profound meaning, not only has high artistic value, but also has high historical value, it can be said that it is one of the representative works of the palace of "Ningquan Prosperous Age". Because the waist knife is made by Quanlongdi for the collection, in addition to the waist knife manufacturing requirements are precise and precise, its scabbard and the box containing the waist knife are also extremely strict in production. The scabbard of the waist knife is made of wood, covered with golden peach skin, and is assembled into a "human" pattern. The golden peach skin selected is the skin of a peach tree branch that is special to the south of Middle-earth, and the color is golden, which is very similar to being covered with a layer of gold paint, so it is named. It is rumored that the golden peach skin has the function of "avoiding evil and driving away evil", and it is used to make the waist knife scabbard, which not only has a decorative effect, but also has the symbol of keeping the country stable forever and shocking the Quartet. Although the waist knife was specially made for collection and enjoyment, the Quanlong Emperor often placed it beside the emperor when he was celebrating the Grand Parade, the Mulan Autumn Festival, touring the province, ordering the generals to go on expeditions and meeting foreign envoys, so as to show "Xuanwei and Sheng" and "Yuanjing Er'an".

Time has passed, and these imperial waist knives have survived the wind and rain as historical relics, and after being lost overseas, they finally returned to their homes.

"What does the sixth master think of this knife?" Seeing Prince Jing's loving look. Renxi asked with a smile on the side.

"Treasure Sword! The most precious treasure in the world! Prince Jing sighed with emotion. Mouthful. But his eyes still did not leave the sword in his hand.

"The sixth master likes it so much, then I will give this knife to the sixth master." Renxi smiled.

Hearing Renxi's words, Prince Jing realized his gaffe, and immediately put the treasure knife in his hand back to its original place, stood aside respectfully, and said inexplicably in fear: "This knife is the imperial system of Emperor Gaozong, a royal treasure. When the minister sees it today, he is already fortunate to have three lives, how dare he think about it! The Queen Mother has to take back her life! ”

"Okay, Sixth Master, don't say these words again, please accept this knife from Sixth Master!" Ren Xi said, took the "Zhenyuan" treasure knife with his own hands, and handed it to Prince Jing, "Didn't Emperor Wenzong reward the sixth master with a 'white rainbow' knife, I gave the sixth master this knife today." It's just the icing on the cake, and the sixth master doesn't have to be polite. ”

The "Baihong" knife was made by Emperor Shaoguang. After Emperor Xianfeng ascended the throne, he was rewarded to Prince Jing to wear to show his cronies, comparable to the Shang Fang sword, although since the establishment of the Qian, in order to prevent the dictatorship of military generals, there is no Shang Fang sword system, the white rainbow knife only has this symbolic meaning, and does not have actual power, but at that time, it was indeed a symbol of power and glory.

Today, the Empress Dowager Renxi presented the "Zhenyuan" sword made by Emperor Quanlong to Prince Jing, and the deep meaning of it could not be clearer in Prince Jing's heart.

"Minister...... Thank you for the grace of the Queen Mother! As he spoke, Prince Jing knelt down on his knees, took the sword with both hands, and bowed three times in thanks.

"Sixth Master, get up." Renxi waved his hand, came to the table, took another sword, and handed it to Prince Jing, "How does the sixth master look at this sword?" ”

Prince Jing put the "Zhenyuan" sword in his hand on the table, took the sword with both hands and looked at it.

This sword body is long and broad, flat body round ridge, well-forged, the middle of the sword body is a water bead pattern, the bottom of the sword body on the right side of the gold chisel, engraved with text, horizontal for "herringbone seven", vertical for "through the sun", all for the official book, the left side of the wrong silver horizontal book "Quanlong year", under the wrong gold, silver, copper dragon Tengxiao Han pattern, the handle sheath equipment is copper gilt, embossed dragon ornamentation, the metalwork is extremely exquisite, the wooden scabbard is covered with red shark skin, the wooden handle is wrapped with bright yellow ribbon, through the Ming yellow silk spike, the sword style is the Central Plains style, it is the best in the retro work of the Quanlong Dynasty.

"Good sword!" Prince Jing praised loudly.

"This sword, the sixth master will also hold it." Renxi smiled.

Prince Jing was stunned, he didn't understand why Renxi wanted to give him a sword in addition to a sword, and was about to ask a question, but Renxi gave him an answer.

"Sixth master, you just thought about this sword name and saw it, when I saw this sword name, I planned to give this sword to the Lin Wenxiang brother in Japan, but unfortunately he can't come back now, so this sword, the sixth master will keep it for me for the time being, and when he comes back, the sixth master will give it to him." Renxi said quietly.

"Minister, Lin Yiqing, thank the Empress Dowager for her grace!" Prince Jing was surprised and delighted in his heart, he came to meet today, originally to discuss privately with the Empress Dowager Renxi how to protect Lin Yiqing, and told the Empress Dowager Renxi about today's meeting with the ministers of Russia, Germany and Japan, but he didn't expect the Empress Dowager Renxi to play this for herself.

This Quanlong imperial sword is called "Guanri", and the person who rewarded it is Lin Yiqing, who executed the plan to cut the sun, and the meaning of this could not be clearer!

The Queen Mother not only wants to protect Lin Yiqing, but also to reuse it after he returns to China!

"The sixth master has given us a big breath of evil today, Lin Yiqing not only succeeded in cutting the day, but also destroyed the Russians several times in a row, so that they have now lost their prestige, the northwest and northeast are safe, Lin Yiqing's contribution is great, now I estimate that the Russians and the Japanese must be determined to take his life, I am afraid that he will not be able to cope with it alone, now that the Sataxians are gone, his safety will fall on the mother country, and the sixth master will definitely think of a son to ensure his safe return."

"Obey the order!" Prince Jing immediately responded, "The minister must ensure that he returns home safely!" ”

"Lin Yiqing must be protected, if necessary, he can force each other, but the sixth master remembers, we must not provoke Russia and Japan because of this, our current situation, the sixth master knows, he can't stand the toss, but he can't show cowardice in front of Russia and Japan, so the proportion in this has to be grasped by the sixth master."

"The minister knows the stakes, and the queen mother can rest assured!" Prince Jing replied.

"When the Turhu special department returned to the east, the ministers all thought that it was intolerable for the neighboring countries to surrender and rebel, and they were worried that the military disaster would be connected from then on, but Emperor Gaozong's holy wisdom was clear, and the handling was very appropriate, not only did the Turhu special department return to the heart, but Russia did not dare to fight with my big cadres because of this, and now Lin Yiqing's matter is more difficult than the return of the Turhu special department, and the sixth master must be careful." Renxi admonished again.

"The minister understands that this matter is difficult to handle, so he must be careful!" Prince Jing said respectfully.

Renxi looked at Prince Jing and said with a smile: "I think these sixth masters know everything, what I am nagging at this time is to give the sixth master a wake-up call, and the sixth master doesn't have to be afraid." The so-called not afraid of 10,000, just afraid of what happens, it's always good to think about it, if there is a real accident, the sixth master doesn't have to worry, and our sisters help the sixth master.
