Chapter 41, Section 3, Change of Imperial Power
On October 1, 1874 in the continental calendar, Shui Han officially ascended the throne, and the Nanxing Emperor of the Shui Rou Empire abdicated, and he reigned for 15 years.
The living standards of the common people throughout the country have been greatly improved, subsidies in the rural areas have increased year by year, and the peasants' land taxes have been completely exempted.
The new emperor succeeded to the throne and granted amnesty to the world. Once a son of heaven and a courtier, Long Feng was appointed as the secretary of the military department in charge of the country's soldiers and horses, Lu Youcai was appointed as the imperial history of Zhongcheng, and other positions basically adopted a younger policy, and promoted a group of young officials with both ability and political integrity, and I was once again crowned as a national teacher, what is this? became a national teacher of two countries at once, it must be the idea of the old man, and he didn't discuss it with me, okay, he is Lao Tzu, and my opposition is invalid.
In November, the first national university in the Surou Empire was established, called Sucheong University, with the latest majors in physics and chemistry. In terms of mathematics, the Arabic numerals that I have been vigorously promoting have also achieved initial results, many mathematical applications have become more convenient, and a group of very talented mathematics experts have slowly grown up, and science is the foundation of science and technology, including gene technology, communication technology, etc., which are developed in science research.
At the end of December, I held a New Year's Eve party for the first time at the Royal Military Academy, and the famous celebrities in China were invited, not to mention singing and dancing, I also said a cross talk with Shui Wuji for the first time, and received bursts of applause.
During the Chinese New Year, the old man and the emperor had to hold a party in the palace, I pondered for a long time, pulled Long Feng and Li Fei and they performed a sketch, even Shui Yue made a cameo, the old man and the mother-in-law laughed and leaned back, and finally forced me to come to a song, I was depressed, I had an idea, let you be happy, I came sad, let you cry to death! Ha ha!
When the guqin was brought up, I tried it, and it was okay, and the technique was skillful, so I said: "Audience, where has the time gone for a song, dedicated to you"
"The old tree in front of the door grows new sprouts,
The dead trees in the courtyard bloomed again,
Half survived a lot of words,
Hidden in a head full of gray hair.
The little feet in memory,
Meaty little mouth,
Give him love all your life,
Just for that mom and dad!
Where has the time gone?
I don't feel young and old,
Bear children and raise daughters for the rest of your life,
My mind was full of children crying and laughing.
Where has the time gone?
I didn't take a good look at the eyes,
Firewood, rice, oil, and salt for half a lifetime,
In the blink of an eye, only the wrinkles on his face remained. ”
After singing it again, I sang it again, and the more I sang, the deeper I felt.
I cried bitterly when I thought of my parents, my mother died of illness when I was thirteen years old, and my father died at the age of seventy-one. After many years, my mother's voice and smile still appear in front of my eyes from time to time.
In life, parents and children are concerned, never say how strong you are, that's because you're not sad enough. There is a trace of softness in everyone's heart, what is life for, only for their own life is not, someone has communication, with the surging crowd involuntarily went through a lifetime, suddenly looking back, only to understand that there are still many regrets.
The soft sobbing woke me up, and many ladies wept bitterly, even the iron-blooded generals shed tears, and the men did not flick their tears when they wept, but they did not reach the sad place.
The Emperor took the lead in applauding with tears in his eyes, and soon the applause became more and more enthusiastic, and I quickly bowed and thanked and retired. Alas! I wanted to rectify people, but I ended up crying myself, which is really hurting others and myself!
I regret it even more in the back, a song where has the time gone has become a hot topic for the New Year, and I don't know who passed it out, the identity of the beautiful bearded son was exposed, the poems I once wrote, the songs I sang, the art of war, and the aphorisms I said were all dug up by people, and for a time the first in the world became synonymous with me, and people affectionately called me the crown boss, and no one in the rivers and lakes dared to call himself the boss again. Even the elder brother, who was the first in line among the children, changed his name to Dalang. Alas! It's really weird that happens every year, and this year there are a lot of them.
