3524 Speaking pomp
Read thousands of miles of books and travel thousands of miles! How much impact will this kind of study tour have on people's character? This is a matter of opinion, but in Emperor Tongzhi Zaichun, Xiao Letian took him to study abroad in recent years, which has completely changed the nature of the little emperor.
Before he knew it, Emperor Tongzhi could no longer go back to his past. He was no longer the king taught by the strict rules in the past. He had opened his eyes to look at the world, and his heart had long longed for the enlightened new world outside!
Zaichun felt a fire in his heart. The freedom he enjoyed in Europe was beyond imagination in Asia. This freedom belongs not only to the king but also to the common people.
So what about the king and the emperor? If you should go on a patrol, you can go on a patrol just because the security measures are stricter, and the people should live as they should.
The cavalry on the street protected the emperor of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. They lived as much as the shops and houses on both sides of the road. They loved the emperor and saluted them. The people who didn't care about what you were and did whatever they should do.
Even those who oppose the emperor will spit out or even shout a few slogans of protest. In fact, as long as you don’t really want to assassinate the emperor, most of the police will just disperse it.
This is the emperor, and other nobles are even more relaxed. In the people and ordinary people, you live your wealth and honor, I live my poor life, and the well will not interfere with the rivers!
It is in this environment that Emperor Tongzhi could go to the library to read classical books from the 16th century with students at will, or go to private museums to study cultural relics with scholars.
He could dine at the highest-end restaurants, but during this period, the guests applauded him a few times, and did whatever else he should do.
Even walking on the streets, in the forests, deep in the park... these places are casual, without so many rules, and they will not disturb the public at all!
This kind of life is so good. You and I are under the sky, but we don’t interfere with each other. This is the freedom to relax our minds!
Everyone is self-interested without harming each other, and the highest level mentioned by the saint is nothing more than this!
But when I returned to the Qing Dynasty, everything I looked around... everything was gray and everything was depressing. Including this welcoming ceremony, it was actually fake and was done by man!
Who would the people scolded after they suffered such a big trouble? Should they scold those bastard officials? Or should they scold themselves as the emperor?
What made Emperor Tongzhi even more angry was that he actually dared to pour dirty water on Emperor Kangxi and Emperor Qianlong's head, saying that when he went to Jiangnan, the rules were stricter than this. What did this mean? Isn't this to tell the people clearly that the saints of those days were even more disturbing than him and even more troubled the people?
You can forgive your sin of Sabao's collision with the Holy Lord, but you must not forgive your sin for slandering the Holy Ancestor!
Sabao had been scared to death. His whole head was covered in silence. It was clear that Fu Qing, Yi Qiong and others were shook their heads and gestures at him, but Sabao didn't understand what it meant until the end.
"Your Majesty... I'm not making any mistakes... I really heard from my grandfather's words, and who in the city doesn't know the grand occasion of that year?"
"It's really a rule that you don't allow you to eat, drink, defecate and urinate at will! We are prepared to welcome you. We will send a message when we roll your horse and send a letter. Foreigners will have to deliver a message in a quarter of an hour..."
"The people and gentry gathered on both sides of the canal three days ago, and all the houses were summoned for these people to live in... The last time I received the car, I was not allowed to eat in the first twelve hours!"
"Everyone just gave ginseng soup and beef jerky, but this has to be limited... I'm afraid of it, and I'm going to hit the Holy Emperor!"
"Don't think about the big size. You have to be shackled in your pants. If you are really too anxious, you will have one or two toilets for you to go out..."
"But there are rules for that toilet. You need to be supervised by someone, prepare it with the best silver silk charcoal. You have to lay a layer at one time and then sprinkle sprinkle sprinkles..."
"This is the rule, this is the essence of our Qing Dynasty!"
"Your Majesty, don't say that the rules are strict, but if you are not strict, you won't be able to do it... Why do you need to be a member of the same hometown? Why do you need to give the people in every village a senior?"
"This is to keep a good look at the situation and avoid trouble, so that people will get in, and to avoid young people from being able to suppress..."
Sa Bao seems to be a gangster of Eight Banners who brags about the mountains. At the beginning, he was a little nervous, but in the end he became happier and happier. This is a typical person who is crazy!
"The rules have to be so strict. It's not that we are unreasonable... More than 100,000 people are gathered together. God knows if any assassin or bad guys will get involved?"
"So these stinky people have to stay on their own every acre of land, not to move around... You also go to the toilet, and he also goes to the toilet... If a hundred thousand people get in a mess, thousands of people have to go to the toilet!"
"Can you take care of me? What if you sneak into the bad guys while you are in trouble? I said something disrespectful... We are so cautious, and why didn't Long Live the Emperor who visited privately? Isn't he also sneak in?"
"What does this mean? It means that our rules are not strict enough. This is a great indulgence to these troublemakers!"
"Enough!" Emperor Tongzhi shouted, "I haven't seen you have such great ability in defending your country in the war, you are so good at talking! I ask, are you waiting for ten words?"
"Long live, I will spare my life, I will know that I am wrong..." Sabao then kowtowed like pounding garlic.
Zaichun felt like he was so angry that he turned his head and asked the fifth uncle, "Uncle, is this slave said true?"
Yi Qiong nodded, "Long live the tour, that's not something that can't be done once you make a mistake. It's better to be stricter..."
Weng Tonghe saw the unhappiness in the little emperor's heart and hurried forward, "Your Majesty... the people below have a good intention, but the means are a bit fierce. For the good days of your return to China, please calm down your anger!"
Emperor Tongzhi looked around and saw that there were people kneeling down around Wusongkou, and there was no end to the point. Only the Chinese Marines guarded by him and the accompanying court officials were still standing on the left.
Zaichun suddenly felt lonely in a vast sea of people. He wanted to punish Sabao severely, but he didn't know how to punish him.
What crime should I use to determine? Are I disturbing the people? In the Qing Dynasty, aren’t the people of the emperor’s slaves? In order to raid your home, I still care about kneeling for a day and starving for a long time?
Or is it that he would insult Emperor Kangxi and Emperor Qianlong? But the emperor’s uncle and imperial master have already made it clear. Today’s scale is actually nothing, it’s just a small scene!
What's more, you punished Sabao, Shanghai Road, Songjiang Prefecture officials? Uncle Huang, Weng Tonghe, Jiushuai and others were not dealt with strictly?
But will you really offend so many people as soon as you return to China? For the sake of the hardships of the people, you offend so many officials?
Emperor Tongzhi's face turned red and then slowly lost his blood. He suddenly realized that he was not facing an enemy or a group of enemies, but a large group of endless cotton, and you could not punch.
Or, he was facing a mess!
"Sabao! Get up... Do you say that the ancestors followed the Eight Banners Iron Cavalry into the Pass and fought until Jiangnan before settling down?"
"Yes! The slave is from the Zhenglan Banner. The ancestors once served as Batulu under the command of the Manguertai Banner Lord..."
"Okay! Since that's the case, you go to the northwest! Going to Master Zuo Ji to make achievements is better than being such a small guard and a poor city gate official now!"
"Ah..." Sabao was shocked.
