Although de Port is an earl, he is actually a small landowner with a little land in his hands and seven or eight farmers who belong to him, that's all. He is one of the most inconspicuous people in the Duchy of Alsace. Although he is not so poor that he has no pants to wear, the shabby house has nothing to do with wealth.

According to Koko, a thousand years ago, Count de Port met the Duke of Sheep from the East during hunting, and the two became good friends. Seeing that the Earl of Deport lived in a house that was not as good as a doghouse, Duke Sheep suggested that he build a castle of his own on a dangerous hilltop.

Deport was moved, but he was so poor that he had no money to repair a house, let alone a castle. He ran to his wealthy cousin Werner, the bishop of Teslaburg, for help, but was ruthlessly rejected and had his entourage drive him away.

Just when Deport was disappointed, Duke Sheep Yi pulled a half-carriage of Frank gold coins from nowhere and poured them all over to Deport, and then he had the money to build Eagle Castle.

Coco said that on the day the small castle was built, Earl de Port and Duke Sheep stood on the top of the castle and looked at the eagle gliding across the valley, so they decided to call it "Eagle's Castle". name. In order to get angry with his cousin Werner, the bishop of Teslaburg, at the suggestion of Duke Sheep, Count Deport decided that his descendants would all have the surname Habitsburg (habichtsburg) in the future.

This is the origin of the surname Habsburg, who later ruled Europe. Koko said that the Habsburg family believed in this theory of origin. Although it sounds bizarre, it is because it is unusual. Since it can be passed down, it naturally has its roots.

Zhuo Yang became very interested in the "Duke Yang Yi" in the narrative, because this was not the first time he heard the name "Yang Yi".

That was five years ago. Before Ronaldo left AC Milan and returned to Brazil, he went to the shores of Lake Como to visit Zhuoyang and told him about his more bizarre 'dream'.

In the dream, Ronaldo transformed into a peasant in the Middle Ages who was simply called "Molihei". He was later made a slave and became a gladiator in the Roman Empire of Constantinople. Later, he was bought by a man from the East with five gold coins. From then on, he became Yang Yi's follower.

According to Ronaldo, Mr. Yang Yi is a very magical person.

In today's story of Kou Kou, the name "Yang Yi" appears again. Although I don't know whether Ronaldo's Portuguese pronunciation of "Yang Yi" and Kou Kou's German pronunciation of "Yang Yi" are the same word, but it is obvious. They all have one thing in common - they come from the East.

Zhuo Yang asked Kou Kou about this, but she didn't know the more specific details, and neither did the Habsburg family. For Switzerland, which is almost at the westernmost tip of the Eurasian continent, the whole world can be considered the 'East'.

Therefore, the Habsburg family does not know whether the "East" of Duke Sheep refers to Kievan Rus at that time, or the Eastern Roman Byzantine Empire in Asia Minor, or the Abbasid Caliphate or Karakhanate, or even more distant East.

Zhuo Yang did the math and found that the Northern Song Dynasty at the same period also had titles, and the king was still a prince and son-in-law.

The Habsburgs did not have any more records about the ‘Sheep-Duke’. There were no portraits or relics, and even the stories were passed down orally. Moreover, according to family legend, it was under the encouragement of Duke Sheep that the Habsburg ancestor Count de Port walked out of the mountains here, took up his sword and armor and went to fight with the king, and finally became famous and became the Alsatian The best in the field.

It was not until 150 years later that Rudolf I, Duke of Habsburg, the fourth grandson of Count de Port, was crowned King of Germany, and the glory of the Habsburg family began.

Zhuo Yang thought this was a very interesting thing. He didn't know how many secrets were buried in the history of the simple and simple Eagle Castle. However, he was not an archaeologist, and he did not have the ability or necessity to trace the source and truth of everything. He was amazed. is the only thing that can be done.

.

For a small building, Eagle Castle is quite decent, with five or six floors scattered throughout the building, and the functions of the house are not lacking, and there is also an imposing turret. But if we talk about it as a castle... maybe the "castle" a thousand years ago looked like this, a little too small, but it has feelings and history, doesn't it?

The Swiss Confederation of 12 launched an uprising against the oppression of the Habsburgs and the Holy Roman Empire. The knights who came to suppress the Habsburgs were beaten by the Swiss and fled in panic. As a result, the Habsburg family was forced to abandon Switzerland, their birthplace, and also abandoned the Eagle Castle.

Switzerland now puts 12 countries in the year.

The Habsburg family moved eastward along the Danube River, and finally settled in a small village on the eastern border of the Holy Roman Empire and built a palace. This small village is now Vienna (wien), and Vienna became the Habsburg family. New foundation.

It was not until more than a hundred years ago that Emperor Franz Joseph I took both soft and hard measures, and the Habsburg family regained ownership of the Eagle Castle from the Swiss government. It is now a tourist attraction and small museum.

The Eagle Fort, built according to the terrain, is completely in the form of a battle fortress, occupying the commanding heights of the entire mountain. Indeed, there is no space no matter how large it is to allow it to be wider and wider. Judging from its characteristics, we can know that this was a place where battles often took place more than a thousand years ago, although most daily battles in Europe at that time could only be called weapon fighting.

It is probably mainly to guard against bandits or knights who rob the rich and give to the poor. They guard the simple but extremely strong stone turret. They only need a pair of low-quality longbows to defend this place impregnably.

Mr. Gabrielleth is the general manager of Eagle Fort and the curator of the museum here. He is responsible for collecting all documents and cultural relics tracing the history of Eagle Fort. Mr. Gablereth said he recently discovered some interesting information in the Swiss National Archives.

According to those archives, there was a harpsichord, also known as a harpsichord, here as far back as the time of Count Depot, the Habsburg ancestor, when Eagle Castle was first built.

As we all know, the modern piano was invented 300 years ago by the Italian Bartolomeo Cristofori, but he did not create it out of nothing, but invented the piano based on the ancient harpsichord.

The harpsichord has a very long history. It was produced in Europe from the 12th to the 14th centuries. Its original structure was to install a set of keys on a rectangular wooden box. The flat-head nails fixed on the back ends of the keys were directly struck and tightened on the wooden box. The metal strings on the frame make the sound.

Piano is just a Chinese translation, and it does not mean that it is made of steel or steel wire. The name of the piano originally came from 'pianoeforte', which means 'strong and weak'.

Various metal wires are used inside the harpsichord, which produce different tones when struck.

The Eagle Castle was built in the early 11th century, significantly before the harpsichord was thought to have appeared. In other words, the harpsichord in Eagle Castle a thousand years ago was the first in human history and the ancestor of the modern piano.

But Mr. Gabrielleth did not find out how Count Deport obtained the ancestor of the piano. Obviously, it was impossible for Deport's vulgar soul to invent such a profound instrument.
