When you enter the golden hall, you will find that it is actually far from being magnificent as you imagined, and it is even a bit dilapidated, and the interior space also looks small due to the large number of people.

Perhaps because it was built for a long time, it has a history of 150 years. The walls of the golden hall have faded to varying degrees. This shows that the historical, artistic and architectural value of this music temple that can accommodate 2,000 people far exceeds its own aesthetic significance.

After entering the venue, the seats were packed, crowded with tourists coming from all over the world.

The Yang family sat in the middle of the second floor, and the view was pretty good.

From an architectural point of view, the construction of the concert hall is a model of later generations. In the 19th century, when vocal music was far from popular, the architects adopted a very exquisite design today to make the concert hall have a perfect sound effect: the nearly square cross-section formed by width and height is conducive to the sound reflecting sideways to the audience in a transparent space;

The segmentation ratio of the second floor private room of the concert hall and the hollow structure under the stage wooden board have been carefully calculated to achieve a reverberation effect that is approaching perfect.

In such an environment, it seems that listening to music is no longer important, because such a magnificent environment itself, even under the dazzling lights and the warm air around it, will make people intoxicated by a luxurious atmosphere, and their ears are likely to be closed.

Perhaps it is because everyone has been influenced by the eyes since childhood and has developed a pilgrimage to the Golden Hall, and has recognized the status of musicians who have performed in the hall.

But in fact, it is not that high-end. This hall is just a paid event place for musicians and music lovers to share their skills and show themselves. As long as you pay a 30,000 euro rent, no matter the level of musical literacy, anyone can enjoy the right to rehearse and perform in the Golden Hall. You can perform whatever you want, and you can sing karaoke on it.

According to statistics from a certain media, in less than a year, at least 133 groups in State Z have "singing the Golden Hall"! Amateur groups composed of students, middle-aged and elderly people, migrant workers, and entrepreneurs have also appeared on the stage of the Golden Hall. Anyway, it is only 30,000 euros, which is still a problem?

In short, the Golden Hall is definitely over-deified in Country Z. It only talks about the beauty or technology of architecture. Many domestic performance venues far surpass the Golden Hall.

If you just come here to listen to a top concert and don’t think so many things are missing, it will definitely make your trip worthwhile, especially if you can catch up with the New Year concert in Vienna, it will be even more perfect. Unfortunately, Yang Cheng and the others are one step late.

But it doesn't matter. The Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra itself is the top-notch, and the performances they contribute will never be worse than New Year's concerts.

As for concerts, like ballet, they are the most elegant art and culture in the West. Yang Cheng has been born in such a family since he was a child, so he naturally has no lack of knowledge, especially the qualities that these nobles should possess.

But perhaps because of the external soul, he really couldn't appreciate the musical. He was so excited at the beginning that he had to cheer up and discussed the issue of wrong sound with Luo Yue in a good manner. Unfortunately, he didn't hold on for too long. Maybe he was too tired and fell asleep directly.

Fortunately, the lullaby was not played on the stage, otherwise I would have slept more soundly.

Towards the end, it was "Radsky March", which was performed together. This was the routine of performing in the Golden Hall. I also knew that at this time, Yang Cheng finally found a sense of integration.

Cooperating with the command and applauding, he lamented that the Austrians' qualities were very good without command, and they could cooperate well. They were clearly distinguished by strength and weakness. They should clap and stop.

Finally, the performance ended with a happy ending.

The performance was 90 minutes in total. After the performance ended, it was still early. Alois called Yang Cheng and asked him if he wanted to see the other side of Vienna.

Yang Cheng didn't want to go, but Alois said, "Come on, I believe you won't regret it~"

People said this, and they had to go and take a look. Then Yang Cheng was taken to a castle outside Vienna. Although it was pitch dark, Yang Cheng still keenly discovered the flag flying above the castle - the black double-headed eagle, which was the family symbol of the former ruler of this land.

"Is this the Habsburg family's industry?" Yang Cheng asked curiously.

Alois smiled mysteriously, "Yes, the once glorious Habsburg family can only make some gray income to support their lives."

Yang Cheng was shocked, "It's not so miserable, right?"

"Hey, this industry is related to their family history. A family that is extremely chaotic led to the final destruction." Alois said simply and shut up. Some words were OK when he joking about it a little, but it would be too much if he said too much.

No matter how much the Habsburg family was once glorious, there is no doubt about it.

When it comes to the sun never sets, many people should think of Britain, but in fact, the Habsburg family is the one who really created this term.

If the Habsburg family were just the rulers of a country, it would never have had as great reputation as it later in European history. In addition to the long rule of World War I, Habsburg also stood out for the masses for its vast territory.

Since Rudolph, the Habsburg family has been connected in Tyrol, Stylia and Austria, and its sphere of influence has reached Vienna from the Swiss mountainous areas eastward, becoming the largest prince in southern Germany.

But their most awesomeness was that they had disrupted the genes of the entire European royal family by their own efforts. The Habsburg family, which used the Black Hawk as the herald, first acquired foreign territory. It began with the marriage between Maximilian I and the daughter of "bold" Charles, the Duke of Burgundy in 1477. After the death of Mary in Burgundy in 1483, Maximilian obtained all the territory of the Duke of Burgundy in the name of regent, which caused a series of territories from southern France to the Netherlands to fall into the hands of Habsburg.

The most outstanding monarch of the Habsburg family was Charles V. At the age of 6, he inherited the Low Countries from his father Philip (now the Netherlands, Belgium and Luxembourg). Charles, 16, bypassed his mother and became the king of Spain (called Carlos I);

After his grandfather Maximilian I died in 1519, he was successfully elected as the Holy Roman Emperor and inherited the German legacy from his grandfather.

At this point, Charles V not only ruled the vast territory of Europe, but his spider-web-like empire also gained colonies in Central and South America, becoming the "Empire of the Sun" in the 16th century.

However, as the largest monarch in Europe between Charlemagne and Napoleon, Charles V was even more interested in talking about by people at that time, not his military achievements, but his "Habsburg-like chin".

Charles V was both a beneficiary of his parents’ marriage and a victim, benefiting from the vast territory spread throughout Europe and a prominent chin that could not close its mouth.

Charles V was still a narcissist. During his reign, he left many portraits, most of which were written by the great Renaissance painters Dürer and Titian.

Today's genetics does not help explain their appearance 500 years ago. At least from the portrait of Charlie's grandfather Maximilian, the chin is still normal, but by Charlie V, the style of the portrait is completely offside.

This family characteristic can be seen from the portraits of Habsburg monarchs in the 17th century, which is mostly caused by in-kin marriage.

After Charlie abdicated, the Habsburg family was divided into two major branches: Spain and Austria, but in the short term, they were still very close to each other.

Charles' son Philip II married his niece, Anna of Austria. Since then, there have been many marriages between the two royal families, and the consequences are clearly visible in the portraits and intelligence of the monarchs.

How did the big chin start? The current speculation is concentrated in two directions: one is brought by Princess Sheenburges, who married into the Habsburg family in 1412; the other is brought by the Habsburg family, because Albert I, who was born in 1255, seems to have a big chin

But the first statement is a bit unreliable. Judging from the portrait, Princess Hinburges' chin is normal and even a little short, but her husband's chin is not small.

So the more reliable statement is due to close relatives. This is also the reason for the decline of the Habsburg family. Emperor Franz Joseph and Queen Elizabeth, the son of the highly-known "Princess Sissi", Prince Rudolph, was the heir to the throne of the Austro-Hungarian Empire.

The character of the crown prince reminds people of his ancestors, the blood of the "crazy girl" Juana, is still running in the crown prince's body. The father's indifference and autocracy made Rudolph discouraged. He exiled himself in the chaos and anesthetics and became depressed.

In 1889, Rudolph suddenly corpsed at the Royal Hunting Garden. He ended his life with a pistol. Lying beside him was his 18-year-old lover Mary Vasera, who shot and killed her a few hours before committing suicide.

The sudden death of the crown prince caught Franz Joseph off guard. In desperation, he appointed his nephew Ferdinand as the successor to the crown prince. However, the dynasty failed to escape the fate of decline. In 1914, the Grand Duke Ferdinand was assassinated in Sarajevo. Just four years later, the broken spider web of the Habsburg dynasty also turned into dust in the smoke of war.

The person who received Alois was a descendant of a Habsburg branch named Kaven, who was the same name as the current leader of the family, Kaven, who lives in Bavaria, but his relationship was at least three generations apart.

"Dear Mr. Alois, welcome to Eagle Castle." Caven bowed respectfully.

Yang Cheng was slightly surprised. The Habsburg family originated in the 6th century AD. Until 1020, a castle was built in Algo, Switzerland, called Habsburg, or "Habsburg". Unexpectedly, their descendants actually built another Eagle Castle here.

This Kawen is also a human being, and you can see the doubts in Yang Cheng's expression at a glance.

Explained, "This Eagle Castle was later acquired from someone else's hands and changed its name~"

Yang Cheng smiled but didn't answer, and Kaven said again, "The family hopes that the flag of the two-headed eagle can continue to float over the homeland, so..."
