Chapter 211

Sheng Yixuan shook his head slowly, staring at Yin Zijin's tear-stained face with a firm and gentle gaze, and gently wiped away the tears from his eyes with his hands, and said softly: "Zijin, to be honest, when I learned about this, I was really shocked, and it was really hard to accept it for a while.

Although I feel fear, my love for you has surpassed everything, even if it all sounds so bizarre and absurd.

What's more... since fate has made us meet, know each other and fall in love, there must be a special arrangement for it. So, Zijin, I am willing to follow you to explore the unknown world three hundred years later.

If one day in the future you have to go back to your original place, please take me with you. Because no matter where we are, I just want to be with you forever and live together. The position of crown prince is just a shackle to me. ”

Yin Zijin nodded slightly, gently took Sheng Yixuan's warm and broad hand, and the two walked slowly towards the service hall side by side.

Along the way, Yin Zijin still felt a little uneasy. She couldn't help but turn her head to look at Sheng Yixuan beside her, and said softly with a little concern: "When we get inside, if you see something new and interesting, or even beyond common sense, you must not..." After that, her beautiful eyes stared at Sheng Yixuan.

Sheng Yixuan gently shook his head, a look of determination appeared on his face, and he said hurriedly: "No, Zijin, that kind of thing will never happen!"

As they were talking, they had unknowingly arrived at the service hall. A magnificent building full of modern atmosphere stands before our eyes. This house adopts the most advanced design concepts and building materials. The exterior lines are smooth and natural, and the glass curtain walls reflect the sunlight, shining with charming light.

Sheng Yixuan took a look and said in surprise: "It is indeed different from the house in the Great Sheng Dynasty."

Yin Zijin brought Sheng Yixuan into the service hall, and Sheng Yixuan looked at everything in the room with curiosity. The robot vacuum cleaner was cleaning the floor. Yin Zijin quickly whispered, "Xiao Ai, turn on the light."

Sheng Yixuan was startled by the sudden light in the room. He pointed at the light on the ceiling and asked quickly, "What is this? It can light up by itself."

Yin Zijin took Sheng Yixuan to sit on the soft and comfortable sofa and explained: "Ah Xuan, this is an electric light. It is the same lighting device as oil lamps and candles. It is just brighter than them. Over the past three hundred years, with the development of technology and artificial intelligence, turning on the light is just a matter of words. It is voice-controlled."

Sheng Yixuan asked curiously, "How could it develop so fast in more than three hundred years?"

Yin Zijin nodded and slowly stood up. He walked lightly to the side where the refrigerator was placed, stretched out his slender white hand, and gently opened the refrigerator door.

A wide variety of food in the refrigerator came into view, but Yin Zijin's eyes were quickly attracted by the fresh fruits that were neatly arranged, brightly colored and exuding tempting aroma.

He carefully picked out a few ripe strawberries, some sweet and juicy orange slices and a bunch of dark purple grapes. Then, he reached out and took a bottle of plain yogurt from the shelf next to him.

Sheng Yixuan followed behind him and asked curiously: "Is this an ice cellar?"

Yin Zijin explained: "This is a refrigerator. It can store food all year round and keep it fresh, especially in the summer, so it won't rot. It's much more convenient than an ice cellar. This refrigerator can be placed anywhere. It's very convenient."

Then, Yin Zijin picked up a clean, transparent glass, unscrewed the cap of the yogurt bottle, and poured the thick, white yogurt into the glass. After a while, the cup was almost half full. After doing all this, he walked lightly to Sheng Yixuan's side.

"Here, for you. It's your first time here, and I haven't greeted you properly." Yin Zijin said softly, and handed the yogurt in her hand to Sheng Yixuan.

Sheng Yixuan frowned slightly, and after a long moment of silence, he suddenly seemed to have thought of something important, and asked Zijin hurriedly, "Zijin, I'm curious, what kind of power do things like lights and refrigerators rely on to keep running?

There must be some mysterious and powerful principles hidden behind them! "As he spoke, he stared at Zijin with eyes full of doubt and curiosity, as if he couldn't wait to get the answer from him.

At this point, Yin Zijin patiently explained: "In fact, they can operate normally because of electricity..."

I wonder what you are thinking about? Yin Zijin frowned slightly and continued: "Ah Xuan, what am I going to say later? You may not understand, but I still hope you will continue to listen.

I come from three hundred years in the future. In the dimension we are in, the first half of the long river of history is no different from what you are familiar with. There was also the great period of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors, who pioneered the Chinese civilization; followed by the governance of the three wise kings Yao, Shun and Yu, which brought peace to the world and enabled the people to live and work in peace and contentment.

Then it went through the succession of three dynasties: Xia, Shang and Zhou, each of which had its own unique style and achievements. Later, there was the turbulent Qin and Han dynasties, during which Qin Shihuang unified the six kingdoms and laid the foundation for the unification of China; while Emperor Wu of Han expelled the barbarians and expanded the territory, making the country's prestige spread far and wide. The Tang Dynasty was one of the most prosperous eras in ancient Chinese culture, and it achieved remarkable achievements in poetry and art that attracted worldwide attention.

The Song Dynasty had a developed economy, prosperous commerce, and great advancement in science and technology. The Yuan Dynasty's cavalry roamed across the Eurasian continent, and its territory was unprecedentedly vast. The Ming Dynasty was a powerful country in its early years, and Zheng He's voyages to the West demonstrated the Ming Dynasty's national prestige. Ancient China, with its splendid and prosperous history and culture, was the envy and study object of other countries and was the most advanced country in the world. Later scholars called it: "Chinese cultural circle."

However, when time moved to the end of the Ming Dynasty, the situation changed dramatically. The Qing army took advantage of the situation to enter the pass, overthrew the Ming Dynasty, and established the Qing Dynasty.

At first, the Qing Dynasty showed a certain vitality and achievements, but as time went on, especially in the late Qing Dynasty, the entire country gradually fell into a state of decay and decline. Political corruption and official embezzlement are rampant, social contradictions are becoming increasingly acute, and people's lives are becoming miserable.

The policy of isolation isolated the country from the world, causing it to miss the development opportunities brought about by the Industrial Revolution and leading to a continuous decline in its overall national strength.

At the same time, Western countries had already begun the Industrial Revolution and were developing rapidly. Steam engines, generators, electric lights, telephones, televisions, computers, cars, and airplanes came into being one after another.

At the same time, the Western powers were like a group of hungry wolves. Relying on their advanced technology that was ahead of the world and their indestructible powerful military force, they surged in like a tide and launched a frenzied invasion of ancient and rich China.

These greedy invaders ruthlessly forced the Qing government to sign one unequal treaty after another, and constantly trampled on China's sovereignty and dignity by ceding land and demanding huge indemnities. Events of loss of sovereignty and humiliation of the country occurred one after another, and the Chinese nation fell into deep suffering.

Especially in the northeast of China, those brutal Japanese pirates were even more ambitious and attempted to bring the whole of China under their territory. To this end, they did not hesitate to launch a war that lasted for more than ten years, bringing endless pain and disaster to the local people.

Looking back at China's long history of 5,000 years, such a glorious and splendid civilization can only be condensed in two thin history books; and the more than 100 years of modern history full of blood, tears and humiliation can also only be summarized in just two books. The heaviness and sadness contained in this is truly heartbreaking.

For more than a hundred years, China was beaten so hard that it could not get up again. Every time I saw the Japanese pirates attacking China and the territory gradually falling, I felt sad.

We were suppressed and beaten by more than a dozen countries and had no power to fight back. It was precisely because we were afraid of being beaten that everyone in the era when I lived had a fear of insufficient firepower, insufficient technology, and insufficient knowledge.

In just a few decades, China has developed at an unimaginable speed..." Yin Zijin frowned slightly, and a sense of sadness suddenly surged up.

Yin Zijin turned on his phone, opened Baidu, and searched for this piece of history, and showed it to Sheng Yixuan...

Sheng Yixuan became more and more angry, and said with a gloomy face: "The Japanese pirates are just the 300 boys and girls brought by Xu Fu of the Qin Dynasty. For thousands of years, they have been bowing down to us. They are so bold that they dare to..."

Yin Zijin quickly held down Sheng Yixuan's slightly trembling hand and said soothingly: "Xuan, this is the fact. If you fall behind, you will be beaten. We just need to move forward and don't look back.

But those humiliations and scars have been engraved into our bones, and we must remember them forever..."

Just like that, Yin Zijin responded to every request. The shock brought by the mobile phone was far more terrible than the destruction of a country and the extinction of a race. With the help of Yin Zijin, Sheng Yixuan watched the video materials, and the more he watched, the angrier and more uncomfortable he became...

I don’t know how long I watched it for, but I estimate it was probably several hours! Sheng Yixuan suddenly seemed to be stimulated by something, and he threw the mobile phone in his hand hard onto the sofa. With this action, the phone collided with the sofa and made a dull sound.

Then he slapped the coffee table in front of him hard, and then stood up suddenly. At this moment, his face was filled with anger, his eyes were wide open, his chest was heaving violently because of extreme anger, and he roared with gnashing teeth: "These Japanese pirates deserve to be cut into pieces, the crimes they committed are really heinous!

The inhumane human experiments carried out by Unit 731, the insane germ warfare, and the horrific massacre in Nanjing, not to mention the humiliated comfort women. They even held inhumane killing competitions. They were so sadistic and murderous that they were simply a group of demons in disguise!

Is it possible for a human being to do such a thing? They are worse than animals! As the saying goes, "Those who are not of my race must have different hearts." The hearts of these Japanese pirates are really too cruel. Fortunately, they have not yet become truly powerful.

Wait, I will go and ask my father for permission. I will lead the army to wipe out these evil Japanese pirates in one fell swoop and make them pay for what they have done! ”

Yin Zijin originally intended to give some persuasion. He was about to say, "Only when we become strong enough, will the weak countries around us naturally submit to us willingly. Therefore, the focus we should think about now is how to make ourselves stronger."

However, just as the words were about to come out of his mouth, Yin Zijin's mind suddenly emerged with the heinous acts of the Japanese pirates. The anger in his heart was instantly ignited, so much so that he didn't even want to pretend anymore.

His face darkened, and he quickly changed his words and said, "It is only natural to destroy the Japanese pirates! However, Brother Xuan, we should not ignore finding our own problems and actively seek development.

You know, although the spatial dimensions are different, history has surprising similarities. In the spatial dimension we are familiar with, the Qing Dynasty came after the Ming Dynasty; but in the spatial dimension you are in, the end of the Ming Dynasty was followed by the Great Sheng Dynasty.

Such similar historical trajectories may lead to the same destination. Brother Xuan, why don't you calm down and think about it carefully, how does the Qing Dynasty compare to the Great Sheng Dynasty? How about it? ”

After listening to what Yin Zijin said, Sheng Yixuan couldn't help but feel a deep fear and dread in his heart. Through what he had just learned, he was shocked to realize that the Great Sheng Dynasty had actually declined to such an extent, even the Qing Dynasty was worse than it.

The current Great Sheng Dynasty seems to be going in the opposite direction, driving history in reverse. The entire court was filled with a foul and chaotic atmosphere. Those aristocratic families firmly controlled the government like greedy beasts, and regarded national interests as their own private property to plunder at will. In the harem, whether it is the queen's family or the concubines' family, almost all of them came from aristocratic families.

Faced with this serious situation, the emperor, as the ruler of a country, although willing to change the status quo, felt powerless. In desperation, he could only choose to reuse the eunuchs who were originally regarded as lowly people, hoping to use their power to restrain the aristocratic families.

However, this is a temporary solution, because once the eunuchs come to power, they are likely to cause new troubles. The troubles are piling up, and one day or another, they might suddenly collapse and explode.

What's more, compared with the Qing Dynasty, the Great Sheng Dynasty was even more closed and blocked! During the Qing Dynasty, although some policies of isolation were implemented, there was still a certain scale of foreign exchanges and trade.
