Crazy is definitely not crazy, but Yixin's emotions are indeed too exciting. The Old Summer Palace, the garden of ten thousand gardens, is really a thorn in the hearts of these princes who were born and raised here!
The Old Summer Palace was only completed during the Kangxi, Yongzong and Qianlong dynasties. It was completely completed during the Qianlong reign, and all civil engineering projects were completed! In the past, we built a courtyard building, lived in one, built one and then connected it to the other.
Just having fun while building it, it took a hundred years to complete!
People of later generations may not be able to imagine the true appearance of this kind of garden, because when later generations go to the Forbidden City, the Summer Palace, Prince Gong's Mansion and other gardens to wander around, what you see is actually an empty shell of a building.
You just saw the general appearance of the building, but when the real royal family lived here, it was absolutely different!
Who dares to transplant rare flowers in a public garden? Aren't you afraid of damage?
In the past, pavilions and pavilions were decorated with various treasures. Even a palace lantern would fetch more than one million yuan in later auction houses.
In a small pavilion dedicated to watching the sunset, the royal family dared to put a screen from the Southern Song Dynasty, and there had to be a Xuande stove to burn incense on the table to add to the atmosphere!
One step at a time, one step at a time! The beauty of Chinese gardens also requires careful embellishment!
Can these embellished jewelry displays be viewed by future generations of tourists? Who dares to put porcelain vases from the Song Dynasty outside during the peak of the National Day crowd?
Nowadays, people are amazed when they see the treasure house through the glass, but in the Qing Dynasty, those jewels were just embellishments of the entire garden, and many of them were even placed directly in the wild to be exposed to wind and rain!
Topography, architecture, water systems, decorations, treasures... all kinds of elements come together to make it a garden of ten thousand gardens!
Zai Chun actually wanted to restore the grandeur of the Old Summer Palace, "You can build buildings, but can you collect all the ornaments and treasures from back then?"
"Baby! You really don't know that the overall architectural value of some palaces is not as good as a pen washer and a disk placed inside!"
"The Old Summer Palace is not a garden at all. It is a wonder of the prosperous times that the entire Qing Dynasty put its efforts into, and even gathered together the top treasures of the Han people from thousands of years ago!"
"That's the Tiangong! It's the Tiangong! It's the Tiangong..." Guiziliu roared hysterically, so scared that Duobao's legs went weak.
"It took our ancestors a hundred years of hard work to replicate the appearance of a heavenly palace on earth... Hehehe, you have only been in power for a few years? You want to rebuild the Old Summer Palace? Are you worthy?"
"We can't keep him, we really can't keep him, this kid is a lunatic!"
Yi Xin grabbed Na Duobao's collar, lifted it up and said with red eyes, "Haha... Do you know why he insisted on rebuilding the Old Summer Palace?"
"Because he wants to gain political capital for himself, and he wants to give himself a halo!" Yi Xin fell into a crazy situation of asking and answering questions.
"I understand his thinking. He just wants to prove his legitimacy by rebuilding the Old Summer Palace!"
"Which country in the world doesn't like great buildings? I heard that Britain is going to build a Crystal Palace? Is it a palace made purely of glass, and then it will exhibit industrial products from various countries?"
"There are many beautiful palaces in Paris, France. They will definitely build more majestic buildings in the future!"
"The same goes for Germany, and the United States will not lag behind...Have you seen the majesty of the Chinese War Temple? It's amazing, I have seen photos!"
"All political powers in the world use great buildings to demonstrate their legitimacy! Zai Chun is jealous. He can't build new ones, so he just wants to restore the garden of ten thousand gardens!"
"We can't let him succeed. Even if he wants to repair it, I have to do it! You little bastard, you're not worthy, you don't have the qualifications!"
"I grew up where I am, I know every plant and tree there!"
"We have to take action, we can't wait any longer, we have to take action..." Guiziliu's madness frightened Na Duobao, his waist tightened, and his crotch immediately became hot.
Guiziliu let go of his hand, and Na Duobao collapsed on the ground. He took two steps back and sat on the chair and took a deep breath for a moment, "Hey... I'm a little out of control!"
"What a treasure! You are a conscientious slave. You have not wavered until now. I am very pleased... It's time to let you know something!"
Reaching out and taking out his pocket watch, Prince Gong looked at it, "The time is almost up, new news should be sent..."
After a while, there was a rhythmic knock on the wooden door of the back kitchen. When it was pushed open, it was Isiha. After bowing to the prince, he took out a wax pill from his arms.
After Yi Xin crushed the wax balls, he shook out a thin piece of rice paper and waved to Na Duobao, "Do you know me?"
Na Duobao looked up and saw that the entire rice paper was filled with foreign characters. He quickly shook his head, "Young man doesn't know foreign characters!"
Isiha explained on the side, "This is English. I risked my life to send it from the British Embassy... It was written by the British military attaché Delaney. It contains some judgments of the British on the current situation and their subsequent plans! "
Prince Gong Yixin smiled and said, "Do you know why Isiha was not exposed? In fact, he has been hiding in the British Embassy in Dongjiaomin Lane during this period!"
"Everyone in the world thinks that I have completely lost power? Haha, they are blind. When I was engaged in diplomacy, Zai Chun even peed his pants!"
"They have friends in the UK, so I don't have any friends in the UK?"
"Then Delaney was directly ordered by former British Prime Minister Benjamin, so he has a secret connection with me for a long time! Do you really think I am a loner?"
"Haha! Let them just dream. This world is so big, and Xiao Letian and Zai Chun can't cover the sky with just one hand!"
"Ah!" Na Duobao understood everything, and his crotch felt hot again, forcing away the coldness just now. "Your Majesty... Your Majesty, do you have any backup plans?"
"No wonder, no wonder the prince, who is in Xiling, has such a sophisticated analysis of the current situation. It turns out that the prince has some help outside!"
The mystery was finally revealed. The looming ghost behind Guiziliu finally appeared. It turned out that the former British Prime Minister had been in contact with him.
"That's right! Benjamin has a very bad relationship with Xiao Letian, and he has great hatred for the Chinese. So can't I use this power?"
"The Prime Minister of the United Kingdom can take turns, but can't I soar into the sky again?"
"This Xiling is my place of Longxing..." Guiziliu turned to look at his father's tomb and said coldly, "Amma! I'm going to start plotting here, and I'm plotting in front of you!"
"Overthrow your grandson's empire! Do you think it's okay for me, the uncle, to rebel against your nephew?"
"You didn't choose me back then and brought the Qing Dynasty to this point...you don't feel ashamed at all? How can you have the face to meet your ancestors!"
