New Shun 1730
Chapter 799 The Romance of the Times (Part 1)
The emperor admired Liu Yu's "understanding" and was actually worried that Liu Yu would escape into Buddhism in the future.
However, in fact, Liu Yu, who felt the sorrow of the universe in the forbidden palace, returned home and experienced the feeling of a little separation better than a wedding, so that on the second day, his back ached and he could walk a little unsteadily.
In the next few days, he still rested at home. After meeting his parents, relatives and friends, he and Tian Zhenyi went to Tsinghua Garden where they had a private meeting that day.
It seemed like it was deliberately made for the emperor to see, they were riding in a hot air balloon together, and it was like the story of a private meeting many years ago.
More than ten years ago, this Tsinghua Garden was still deserted, and no one was willing to build a villa here because of the chaos and strange things done by the previous dynasty.
Today, it is the site of Dashun Academy of Sciences.
The style is quite different from other places.
When it comes to construction, many Westerners are involved.
For example, employees of the Swedish East India Company, William Chambers, the historical designer of Somerset House in London and the Royal Botanic Gardens at Kew Gardens; as well as those sent from France, some who were trained by Jacques François Bou Londel was the designer of a systematic and comprehensive neoclassical architectural style.
Chambers and others are still young, but they are here for internship. Even at this time, after returning from Guangdong, Sir Chambers was able to design Somerset Palace and write "A Treatise on Oriental Gardening" and "On the Design of Architecture, Machinery and Utensils in Chinese Aesthetics". Not even close.
However, Dashun has a close relationship with France, and many of the disciples from the Royal School of Architecture in Paris and Polondel came here to contribute. No more half-baked missionaries.
As a result, the design style of Dashun Academy of Sciences has a somewhat fusion of Chinese and Western artistic conception.
Not only was it far away from the missionary theological style, but a special neoclassical style emerged where East and West met.
In addition to the main teaching building, there is a vast square, a towering commemorative column in the center of the square, a Pantheon-style colonnade in front of the main building, a Saint-Denis-style gate, a Chinese-style garden, and the surrounding Chinese-style houses with Chinese-style eaves, plus Liu What Yu most wanted to see was the thick, acrid smoke coming out of the tall chimneys.
Climbing up and looking at it, it really has a unique flavor. Especially in Liu Yu's opinion, this style has a different kind of familiarity.
Although the word romantic has not been translated at this time, Tian Zhenyi can still feel the romantic feeling when recalling the scene of the private meeting.
The promise made with a smile more than ten years ago has actually been fulfilled now.
But besides romance, Tian Zhenyi smiled and told a story to Liu Yu.
"In the past, Prince Liu Qi asked Marquis Wu Chong'er for advice on how to draw the stairs from the upper floor. He said: Today, if you can't go up to the sky or go down to the earth, it will come out of your mouth and into Qi's ears, so you can give me some advice."
"Third brother said that day with great pride, but I see, it's still too early for something big to happen. Are you planning to say something to Zhenyi that won't reach the heavens or the earth?"
There is indeed no one else here, let alone any eyes or ears. Compared with the location of Liu Qi who took away the ladder that day, it is even more secret.
Liu Yu smiled and stretched out his hand to hold Tian Zhenyi in his arms. Tian Zhenyi also leaned over skillfully and snuggled next to him.
"I want to read two lines of poetry."
"The young man didn't know the feeling of sadness, so he fell in love with the upstairs. He fell in love with the stairs, and in order to compose new poems, he forced himself to talk about sadness. Now that he knows the feeling of sadness, he wants to say it but doesn't want to say it. He wants to say it, but he says it's been a cool autumn."
"When I was young, my ambitions were intense. Now that I'm older, don't you just find everything difficult? Why do you have to say something that can't reach the sky or reach the earth? It was just a whim, thinking about the time when you and I had a private meeting in the past. It’s great to warm up to your youthful years.”
Tian Zhenyi chuckled and said teasingly: "Third brother, I read these two lines of the poem without saying it sincerely. If you really wanted to stop talking, you wouldn't have seen this scenery with me today. If you really had this intention, If you learn from Zhang Liuhou or Chengyi Bo, you won't have to stay in Songjiang Mansion for so long when you come back."
"Since you have such romantic thoughts, you should return to the capital as soon as possible to reunite with your beloved wife. To say that Jiangnan women are soft and charming, but you have been so tormented in the past few days, it is not like being fascinated by women in Jiangnan..."
The two have been married for many years, so there is nothing shy about them.
Now I know the basics and talk about everything. After a few jokes, Liu Yu knew that no one was eavesdropping here, so he started "plotting loudly" with great joy.
"Zhenyi, in the palace a few days ago, I told Your Majesty that I had an alliance with you again in the past. I don't dare to forget the old alliance. I only hope that Your Majesty will allow me to go out for a swim in the future."
"But in fact, it's just using the matter between you and me as a cover. You are right, today is really not about fulfilling the alliance of that day. However, I did have some youthful ambitions at the beginning. But now it seems that I am marching eastward. We have traveled all over the West and South Asia, no matter what, it may not be safer than riding in this hot air balloon."
"This pretense is not to imitate Liu Hou Yuan Dun or Wang Jian's self-destruction..."
After Tian Zhenyi heard this, she was not shocked at all, and was extremely calm. Instead, she smiled and said: "Whether you leave Hou Yuan to escape or Wang Jian commits suicide, whether they die or not, no matter how good you are, it is useless. In the end, it depends on the emperor's thoughts." . Why do you need to learn?”
"It doesn't make sense to live a life where your life and death depend entirely on other people's thoughts. Your Majesty may kill you or me in the future, or not. Even if he doesn't kill you, in the future when the prince ascends the throne, he may kill you or me, or he may not kill you or me. ”
"Every time I think about this, I just think, if you decide my fate, it should be up to you and me, why should it be up to God?"
"Like this, whether you live or die depends entirely on others. I don't like it, let alone the third brother."
It was quite cold in the sky, and the wind was noisy. After Tian Zhenyi finished saying these rebellious words, she habitually leaned towards Liu Yu because of the cold weather, stretched out her hand to pull Liu Yu's cloak and wrapped herself in it.
Then, with a smile, she raised her head lightly, facing the sun, and took a deep breath of the air that had been polluted by the Academy of Sciences and had a pungent smell of coal smoke.
"Your life and mine should be decided by you and me. Third brother is planning to suddenly run away when he is out for fun in the future, right?"
She was not afraid at all in the air, and she spoke frankly. There is no other sun in the sky, and the sun is dazzling, but she smiled at the sun.
This day was not the sky she looked up at. It must be referring to something else.
Liu Yu laughed and said, "I think so too. Whether you live or die, it is hard to live at the mercy of others."
"Since I was an outsider before, I certainly could not make friends with the prince. I don't know what the prince's character is. Let alone the emperor, it's hard to say."
"It is said that serving the emperor is like serving a tiger."
"Liu Hou and Cheng Yi Bo chose to stay away from the tiger. But I wonder why it is natural for tigers to eat people?"
"I want to hide, so I prepared in advance and just said that I want to travel. Don't wait until the emperor feels that he can't do it and then run away. As long as a few more years pass, the matter is done, and then go."
"I have cultivated the soil, sown the seeds, and watered. Before I close my eyes, I may see the harvest. ; or not seeing the harvest, it doesn't matter. Even if there is no harvest now, there will be harvest in the future. "
"It's just that the matter has not been completed. If it is completed in the future, it doesn't matter whether you just leave or flee across the ocean to avoid disaster. "
"You have also heard me talk about many landscapes in this world. Then you can go to Levi Asia in Kunyu World Map to see lions and ostriches; go to North America to see towering trees. If it is really bad, hide your identity, live outside the continents and oceans, and see the news from the world that has traveled across the oceans and spread thousands of miles away. It's also fun to tell you stories that you like to hear me tell every day. "
Tian Zhenyi, who was nestled in his arms, turned her face and looked into Liu Yu's eyes, and her own eyes also curved into crescents.
"My third brother has now reported to the emperor that he wants to take me on a tour. It would be nice to visit all the famous mountains and rivers in the world first, and then go to see the scenery outside in the future."
"If you really want to go, a letter and a big ship will be enough. I just want you to be by my side, what difference does Libya and America make?"
"I'm afraid that you are still young now, but you will be old in the future. Even if you know there are beautiful scenery over there, you can't go there. But since you have admitted your reason, I can't persuade you, and why should I persuade you?"
"It is said that the husband sings and the wife follows, how do you know that you and I are in collusion?"
The couple has been together for a long time, and Liu Yu has said too many "treasonous" words in private. Tian Zhenyi has long been accustomed to it and even prepared in her heart.
Now that she heard Liu Yu's intention to prepare for a future escape, she was not nervous, but relieved.
What she was afraid of was not what Liu Yu would do.
Rather, she was afraid that Liu Yu would become a martyr in the future, when things were about to be accomplished but not yet accomplished, and when the world was in chaos but not yet in chaos, and continue to be the guide.
On weekdays, Liu Yu had told her a lot about the "inevitability of history".
On this point, she and Liu Yu were a little bit at odds.
She agreed with Liu Yu's statement.
But she felt that since Liu Yu was already busy creating the material foundation, cultivating the soil, sowing the seeds, and watering the crops, everything would come naturally in the future. Even if he was missing, it would only be 30 or 50 years later.
Now that the South Sea has been conquered, the East Sea has been pacified, and the Western Regions have been recovered, even if it takes 30 or 50 years, there is no need to worry about the situation of being almost plucked by others in the late Ming Dynasty.
Once the soil that should be cultivated has been cultivated and the water that should be watered has been watered in the future, then just leave.
Why should we be the first person to raise a sickle to cut the ears?
If you take the lead, maybe you can be faster. History can be used as a lesson. Chen Sheng and Wu Guang were not the emperors of the Han Dynasty; Han Shantong and Liu Futong were not the founding emperors of the Ming Dynasty. Their endings were the same, they all died, so why bother?
Tian Zhenyi felt that it was inevitable in history. If there was no Liu Bang, there would be Wang Bang and Zhao Bang; if there was no Li Zicheng, there would be Chen Zicheng and Sun Zicheng. Could it be that the Eastern Tartars could really take over the world? Or would the Ming Dynasty continue its original rule?
But Liu Yu's thoughts vaguely revealed a desire to take the lead in the future.
Today, I heard Liu Yu take the initiative to say that he might run away in the future, watching the show across the ocean, and saying something like "If you don't harvest today, you can harvest tomorrow."
Tian Zhenyi was not surprised, nervous or uneasy at all, but was relaxed.
