Chapter 387: Lin'an
Chapter 387 Lin'an
In the evening, at about twelve o'clock, Qin Mubai and they arrived at the hotel in downtown Hangzhou, Qin Mubai had some smiles, Genghis Khan, known as the eagle of the steppe, was a little afraid of heights, but even if he was afraid of heights, he was still able to maintain his inner composure, and even forced himself to look at the scenery on the ground from the air.
Maybe it's because of the night, it's not as terrible as the day, but it can only show that people like Genghis Khan can be tough enough to use their psychological qualities to overcome their physical instincts, maybe such people can become strong in history, anyway, Qin Mubai feels that if he goes back to ancient times, it is estimated that he will be a salted fish shouting 6666, and it is impossible to talk about being a king and hegemon.
Even if you can be like those who have traveled through history, it is unknown whether you can have a good life, maybe when you provoke someone and kill yourself, if you don't believe it, let King Chujiang get him to ancient times.
The hotel is still a five-star hotel, but it is not a presidential suite, or a regular suite. Although the room is not big, after entering the room, Genghis Khan did not hide his surprise, just like Cao Xueqin's Grandma Liu, who had to ask curiously about anything he saw.
Even a lot of things had to be carefully asked by Qin Mubai, especially things like electric lights, he was even more curious.
Of course, the luxury of the facilities in the whole hotel also made him breathtaking, although Genghis Khan was the Great Khan of the entire Mongolian State, but in fact, even when he was the Great Khan, it is estimated that life may not be comparable to the life of some big families in the Southern Song Dynasty.
This is the difference in their own living conditions, of course, there is no shortage of such things as women, but how beautiful women were in that period, Qin Mubai didn't dare to imagine.
"Is this the life of ordinary people now?" Genghis Khan asked with emotion, sitting on the bed, feeling the softness under his buttocks.
"Yes. Qin Mubai smiled and nodded, although most ordinary people would definitely not be able to live in a five-star hotel every day, but in such a five-star hotel, anyone can live in one night. It's nothing more than a question of gritting his teeth, and Qin Mubai is not wrong to answer so.
"What kind of country can allow ordinary people to live such a life, and how should the emperor of this era live. Genghis Khan couldn't help but ask.
"Now there is no emperor, just a head of state, but the head of a country can only serve for 10 years, and after 10 years, the next term will be replaced, these people have risen step by step from the bottom, first managing a village and a township, then a county seat, a city, the last province, and then a country. Qin Mubai explained with a smile.
"Maybe that's how a country can survive permanently. Genghis Khan was silent for a moment, and then said with a wry smile: "Maybe this is what the Han people call the anti-purity and return to the truth, if I remember correctly, the ancient period of the Han people in the Central Plains was such a Zen system, the capable go up, and the mediocre go down." After all, you can guarantee that you are a Ming Jun, but you cannot guarantee that your children and grandchildren will also be Ming Jun. ”
"Otherwise, many people now say that in fact, the ancient ones are not necessarily backward, there are only suitable things and no outdated things. Qin Mubai smiled, of course, he didn't explain, these current systems, no matter which country, are far from being able to talk about and cannot reach the kind of Zen concession system in ancient times.
In the process of growing up, many people will definitely get a lot of resources behind them. Of course, the opportunities of modern times must be greater than those of ancient times, these are certain, after all, modern ordinary people, if you really have that ability, it is not impossible to sit in the position of ****, but in ancient times, if you want to be an emperor, either you are born well, or you can only rebel.
Otherwise, why is it said in ancient times that there are ten heinous crimes, and the first evil is not murder, but rebellion?
"That's the truth. Genghis Khan nodded, "Then Mr. Qin, what do you think you should do if you were me, or if you were the Southern Song Dynasty?" ”
Looking at Genghis Khan's eyes, Qin Mubai smiled bitterly, he shook his head helplessly and said: "To tell the truth, Great Khan, you have been admitted to this question, in fact, I am an ordinary person, I have never even been a class president in a school since I was a child, you ask me such a question, in fact, I can't figure it out at all, I think, if I live in ancient times, the first must be to ensure that I can live." ”
"And then at the same time to ensure that I survive, try to make my family, relatives and friends can live a little better, if I still have the strength to ensure this, maybe I will help some people, make the life of the people around me a little better, if you say that I am you, then I will definitely try my best to make my people's life better. ”
Qin Mubai thought about it carefully, and then replied. In fact, I believe that most people think like this, after all, people are selfish, so that Qin Mubai can struggle for countless ordinary people without even guaranteeing himself, and even dedicate his life, to be honest, Qin Mubai feels that he can't do it.
There are not many people who can do this, from ancient times to the present. Just like the first group of people who built this country today, there are really not many people who can do that.
Qin Mubai of the ancient dynasty didn't understand, and he didn't have the right to comment, but at least these modern people have indeed sacrificed too much for this country, and they also deserve Qin Mubai's comment, they really fought for many ordinary people and sacrificed their lives.
Maybe that's what is in the bones, it belongs to the cry of countless ordinary people, because in that era, ordinary people couldn't live anymore, maybe they were also for themselves, but whether they were for themselves or for others, anyway, the efforts they put in deserve anyone's respect.
Perhaps, this is the reason why the Chiang dynasty could not reach the end? Because what they represented in that period was not the toiling masses, but the class of countless landlords and wealthy people. And in that era, there were too many ordinary people who woke up and recognized that era.
Strictly speaking, my rabbit can be regarded as a peasant uprising.
"Actually, most people think like this, Mr. Qin, it's enough for you to have such thoughts. Genghis Khan smiled and said, "When I was a child, for a while, I had nothing but my mother and my siblings, and I thought at that time that I was the eldest man in the family, so I could only carry this family and make my mother and my family live a little better." ”
"As for the future, as you said, it was just too many people pushing me forward. ”
After chatting with Genghis Khan for a long time, the two of them fell asleep separately, listening to the snoring of Genghis Khan next to him, Qin Mubai felt that in fact, these people like Genghis Khan may be ordinary people, but they are a little stronger than ordinary people, a little more ambitious, and a little more persistent.
The next day, the two of them got up very early, now Hangzhou can almost be said to be one of the most advanced cities in China, although it may be worse than Shanghai and the like not far away, but in fact, Hangzhou's development in all aspects is very fast, and even some aspects of the advanced degree, I am afraid that Shanghai may not be able to compare.
To be honest, Qin Mubai has not been here many times, but from ancient times to the present, this place in Jiangnan can be said to be one of the most prosperous places in all dynasties and generations.
The bank of the Qinhuai River all the way to this large area of Suzhou and Hangzhou is the place where countless literati and rioters gather.
The current cleanliness of Hangzhou's city is probably among the top in China, of course, you can't see any traces of antiquity in most urban areas, so after eating breakfast, Qin Mubai directly brought Genghis Khan to the edge of the West Lake.
Perhaps only on the edge of this West Lake, you can feel a little bit of ancient atmosphere, many buildings on both sides of the West Lake still maintain the shape of ancient buildings, but this is also one of the few shapes.
Even though it is winter, there are many tourists on the edge of this West Lake, looking at this place, Genghis Khan couldn't help but ask: "I'm afraid this is the famous West Lake, right?"
"Yes, this is the West Lake, and on the edge of the West Lake, not far from the city gate of Lin'an, the capital of the Southern Song Dynasty. Today, however, these are almost invisible. Qin Mubai said with a smile.
With Genghis Khan, Qin Mubai and the two of them soon arrived at the famous scenic spot of West Lake, the Broken Bridge. Standing on this broken bridge, Qin Mubai and Genghis Khan stood side by side, and after a long time, Genghis Khan said with a smile: "This is really a good place, no wonder many people like the Central Plains, but such a place is indeed like poison, corroding people's bone marrow." ”
"It's no longer possible to see the scenery of thousands of years ago. Qin Mubai smiled.
"Time is like a long river, how can we know if we don't see it with our own eyes?" Genghis Khan also smiled.
Qin Mubai was just about to speak, and suddenly he was directly stunned, because around him, it was as if someone had unfolded a new picture in front of Qin Mubai, and the broken bridge under their feet seemed to be constantly beginning to become old, as if time had left a lot of traces on it, and then the surrounding tourists, pedestrians, I don't know when, the down jackets, coats, etc. on their bodies were constantly changing, turning into long shirts, silk, and cotton clothes.
Qin Mubai's eyes widened, and in a few breaths, everything around him seemed to change, and now, under Qin Mubai's feet, the broken bridge seemed to have become a lot old, and in the distance, an ancient city called Lin'an appeared in front of them.
