I am rich in martial arts, but choose culture to win

It can be said that this is the devil's medicine.

Tang Sangui is really a vicious and smoldering guy, he would actually invent such a thing that hurts the harmony of nature, after his death, Lord Yan will definitely send him to the frying pan!

Although I can't help criticizing Old Tang, but to be honest, for the hidden front, this thing is really useful.

It is no less effective than things like Leopard Tai Yijin Pills in martial arts novels.

No wonder the Long Live Lord sent a confidential telegram to the middle-level and above commanders on all fronts of the entire army, repeatedly requesting that no one in the team be contaminated with opium smoke, let alone Hebrew smoke.

Shaking his head, Yang Liu admired Long Live Lord's wise foresight, and his position was higher than Tang Sangui's!

"Didn't the brothers say that they came to Jiangnan for business, why are they going back so soon?"

Yang Liu pushed the cup and said, "These days, everyone has been busy with official duties day and night, all night long, forgetting to rest, forgetting about the body, so that my younger brother can't do a little bit of the landlord's friendship. I am really ashamed. No Knowing the reason for rushing back to the capital this time, my younger brother is also a idler who is just waiting to die, collecting rent to live, why don't you go to the capital with the brothers to learn more?"

"This……"

Jin Qingzhi still hesitated a little, Tong Zi had been waiting for Yang Liu's words, and quickly said, "That's a good relationship, Mr. Yang, please come to Beijing with us, remember to bring more Hebrew smoke!"

The other two also echoed.

Seeing this, Jin Qingzhi had no choice but to say: "Well, it's actually a distant aunt in our family celebrating her birthday this time, and our brothers all went back to celebrate her old man's birthday."

"Speaking of which, the birthday gift has not been prepared yet. Mr. Yang has lived in the south for a long time, and he has seen a lot of seafood. I wonder if you have any good ideas?"

"Brother, let me say it first, my aunt is not an ordinary person, and she has always been against opium, so this Hebrew opium should be avoided, otherwise it will be self-defeating, and you will suffer. You have to think about it." baby!"

Snapped!

Yang Liu slapped the wine glass on the table and said, "Brother Jin, don't worry, your aunt is my aunt, and my nephew is filial. I will definitely give her a big surprise!"

Chapter 389

The morning sun rose as usual from the east of Beijing City.

The ancient imperial capital, which had been silent all night, woke up as expected, exuding the same vitality as before amidst the yelling of breakfast shops and north-south vendors.

It's just that behind this vitality, there is a decadent smell that is so strong that you can't ignore it even if you cover your nose.

Especially the news that came from foreigners in the Tianjin Concession half a month ago cast a lingering haze on the upcoming grand event in the imperial capital.

In later generations, there is a magic spell for Cixi's birthday.

On her fortieth birthday, her own son Tongzhi passed away, and the white-haired man sent the black-haired man away.

On her fiftieth birthday, the "Sino-French New Treaty" was signed, and China lost Cochin; Japan went south, and China lost Ryukyu.

On her 2th birthday, the "Treaty of Shimonoseki" was signed, and China lost North Korea, Taiwan, and Penghu, and paid [-] million taels of silver in compensation.

Hence the famous couplet by Zhang Taiyan:

"Go to Nanyuan today, go to Beihai tomorrow, and when will you go to ancient Chang'an again? I sigh that the people of Li are all dry, and there is only one person who sings to celebrate.

Fifty for Ryukyu, sixty for Taiwan, and now three eastern provinces!Painful Chixian gangs gather day by day, and wish Jiangwu every longevity! "

In fact, on Cixi's [-]th birthday, it was not just Tongzhi's death.

At that time, Yagubo, the invader of the Kokand Khanate in Central Asia, invaded and stole most of Xinjiang.

It's just that Zuo Zongtang changed his fate against the sky through the ages, and reversed a notoriety for Cixi.

The world is different, and in this time and space, the law that there must be disasters after Cixi's birthday still works.

At this time, the young Yehenara Xingzhen could never have imagined that just one month before her 30th birthday, on the other side of the earth, the damned Ming Dynasty crawled out of the underworld, and defeated the world's No. The second power, France, also captured the French emperor, so that the French emperor was abolished by a Parisian Yu Shaobao!

How dare he, Zhu Fugui, how could he do it? He told the story of the grand master and arrested the French emperor as Zhu Qizhen?

That is France, the mighty France!

France, Xingzhen is too familiar to her.

Six years ago, she was forced by the British and French to join Xianfeng in the Mulan Autumn Hunt and fled Beijing in a hurry.

It was also that escape that became the biggest turning point in Yehenala Xingzhen's life.

It can be said that the French are her enemies and her nobles, but in the final analysis they are the ones she can't afford!

But is it that France, which is full of martial arts, the most powerful country in Thailand and the West, and the second most powerful country in the world, was so easily defeated by the Ming Dynasty?

How did Zhu Fugui do it?

Could it be that, as the rumors say, he is the Ziwei star who came down to earth, and he has a hundred and eight stars to help?

Cixi listened to Li Lianying's story, and it was said that Zhang Tianshi of the previous generation of Longhu Mountain ascended the altar to practice, and accidentally let go of one hundred and eight demons.

Now it should be:

【Tiangang Star Jade Porpoise Li Chunfa】

【Sky Secret Star·Great Wisdom·Xing Jiuliu】

【Tian Meng Xing·Iron Tiger·Qi Wenchang】

【Sky Brave Star·Big Bird·Yang Liulang】

【Tianyingxing·Xiaohanxin·Zhang Changgui】

【Tianfuxing · King Pingxi · Tang Sangui】

【Heavenly Killing Star·White Cyclone·Mo Bai】

【Tiangu Xing · Flea on the Drum · Yin Weasel】

【Tianxiongxing Turtle Head Morishita】

……

Thinking of that individual dragon and phoenix gathered under Zhu Fugui's command, Xingzhen couldn't sleep at night like other Manchu nobles.

The difference is that other nobles of the Qing Dynasty can also use opium and women's sex to relieve fatigue, so that they can forget these nightmares.

But Xingzhen can't.

As a partner of the Qingliu party in the current court, such things as opium cannot be touched.

And masculinity...

Xingzhen has been alone for six years!

Do you know how she got here in the past six years?

do you know?

you do not know!

In short, Xingzhen can only comfort her lonely heart in the dead of night, smoking the big back door one by one.

And as for the [-]th birthday this time...

To be honest, the [-]th birthday is not in accordance with the rules of etiquette, but now the Qing Dynasty needs a grand event, a booster!

Originally, the grand event that the whole Qing Dynasty had been waiting for to be flushed should be the gift of captives for the recovery of Jiangning and the extermination of the bandits.

The Qing inherited the Ming system, and the ceremony of presenting captives was also preserved.

Back in the Qianlong Dynasty, Shiquan martial arts, with the virtue of Shiquan's poem writing, the gift of presenting captives was always very powerful.

To pacify the Heavenly Kingdom, the capital must pay heavy ceremonies.

However, two years passed in a flash.

Jiangning Mansion or Tianjing City is still impregnable, so King Hong is not only alive and well, but it is said that he has given birth to a few more grandchildren!

Seeing that this grand event is far away, but my Qing Dynasty is waning, and bad news comes one after another, and I urgently need to find something to cheer up.

Therefore, the Empress Dowager Cixi conquered Japan and added another tributary country to the Qing Dynasty.

"This birthday gift is not for me alone, Xingzhen, but for the sake of me forever!"

……

As early as the beginning of the year, Emperor Tongzhi issued an edict ordering the Ministry of Household Affairs, the Ministry of Rites, the Ministry of Industry, and the Ministry of Internal Affairs to respect general affairs, review old classics, discuss in detail, and arrange the longevity celebration as completely as possible.

Now after nearly a year of preparation, the venue is very complete and grand.

Whether it is the oil decorations in the venue or the clothes worn by the guests, everything is readily available.

Jingdezhen, Jiangxi Province burned 30 tableware with the words "Wan Shou Wu Boundless" and various auspicious patterns. Xing Zhen personally ordered the design of "Wan Shou Spot Scenery Drawing Draft", and built 60 pieces of tableware with colored silk on the dozens of miles from Xihuamen to the Summer Palace. There are many point-view projects such as colorful sheds, stage, archway, scripture altar and various pavilions.

It can be said that the Manchu Qing government turned the imperial city into a palace of auspiciousness and celebration regardless of the cost.

As for the Ming people knocking at the pass, the bandits making trouble, and the Han army leading the way...

All of them don't exist!

I don't know if it's because of the logic of disgusting Ming Dynasty, or that all countries miss me Qing Dynasty, all the ambassadors, ministers, chargé d'affaires, acting counselors, etc. of the great powers to China were all gladly invited to attend, which gave Empress Dowager Cixi enough face.

You know, when Guiziliu took control of the Prime Minister's Yamen in the past, these foreigners were not so obedient and gave face so much!

This shows what?

This shows that Da Xingzhen's bed diplomacy is far more successful than Devil Liu's money diplomacy!

Not only more successful, but also save money!

This time, the British Empire not only attended the event in person, but also allowed Myanmar, Nepal, Sikkim, Siam and other countries to send envoys to attend Cixi's birthday ceremony as vassal states.

The French pay more attention.

Not only did they allow Khmer, Nanzhang and other countries to come to congratulate them, they also persuaded the Spaniards to find two Filipino fishermen, dressed in African aboriginal clothes, who claimed to be the King of Sulu to come together.

They even upgraded the original envoy of the Second French Empire to China as a plenipotentiary ambassador.

Don't underestimate this word difference, it is a huge difference in the diplomatic system of the nineteenth century.

Before the twentieth century, European countries generally only sent ambassadors between major powers or allies or to the Papal States, and generally only sent ministers, the highest diplomatic envoys, to other second-class and lower countries, and the hierarchy was strict.

In other words, France upgraded its envoy to China or the Qing Dynasty to be an ambassador. This is actually an act of actively touching the Qing Dynasty to express its favor!

My Qing Dynasty is somewhat like the India of later generations.

Due to the existence of a certain oriental power that would pose a fundamental threat to the Western world, India/Qing could have both sides with foreigners and was regarded as an important "partner".

That is to say, my Great Ming Wude shocked the world, but unexpectedly, the importance of my Great Qing has risen sharply, and it has become very popular in diplomacy.

The false celestial dynasty: the emperor is called the commander in chief, he personally controls the three armies, cultivates arts and sciences, and develops science and technology.

The real celestial dynasty: Russian soldiers guard the northern border, British ministers control the customs, the emperor hangs down to rule, and all nations come to court!

Compete with each other, and the Qing Dynasty may become the biggest winner!

……

With nearly a year of meticulous preparation by the puppet imperial court, and the arrival of foreign adults, all of a sudden, the scene of the prosperity of the Qing Dynasty came to me.

Yehenara Xingzhen lived behind the scenes through a bead curtain, and together with Aixinjueluo Zaichun, who was only 10 years old, was greeted by all officials and envoys of various vassals, and knelt down three times and kowtowed nine times.

Of course, the ambassadors and ministers of Western countries will not kowtow.

Not to mention kowtowing, they crossed their legs the whole time, drank coffee and black tea, and watched the performances of Orientals with a curious attitude of watching monkey performances.

Later generations of the Anglo-Saxons can set India as a benchmark and call him the world's largest democratic country, but this does not prevent them from viewing Indians as monkeys.

But today's Manchu Qing is still far inferior to the India of later generations.

No matter how milk is printed, they are also nuclear-armed countries.

We wiped out a lot of masters, and there is really nothing to do.

Speaking of grandpa, Jin Qingzhi, or Aixinjueluo Qingzhi, was also in the ceremony at this time.

But in his capacity, the location is quite remote.

But at this time, both he and his Ama were all flushed.

On the one hand, it was because the two of them had just smoked Hebrew tobacco before coming here, and it was the time when they felt comfortable.

On the other hand, it was because at this time, it was the link of presenting the gift list that the people and the royal nobles liked very much.

The clansmen, senior officials, dignitaries, Mongolian princes, Tibetan living Buddhas, and envoys from various vassal states who participated in the birthday banquet of the Holy Mother and Empress Dowager were countless.

Naturally, it is impossible to offer treasures one by one.

Only a few Heshuo princes and important officials, as well as gifts from important vassal states such as North Korea, Vietnam, and Japan, will be presented on the spot.
