I watched Er Chuang’s short video, and everything went numb!

Daqin plane.

Qin Shi Huang nodded slightly after knowing the story behind this note.

This is indeed a national gift with extraordinary significance.

The Dragon Kingdom at that time was not the powerful Dragon Kingdom that would become powerful later.

It was a country that won the civil war after hardships and was established on a ruin, and it was also facing the targeting of Western countries led by the Eagle Sauce Country.

In that case, Big Brother recognized the Dragon Kingdom and established diplomatic relations with the Dragon Kingdom, which was undoubtedly an expression of support for the Dragon Kingdom.

Objectively speaking, this was a great help to the Dragon Kingdom at that time.

The Dragon Kingdom solemnly collected this note as a national gift, which also expressed its intention to remember this help.

……

[3. The Eagle Sauce Country flag and several black and gray fragments. 】

……

Looking at the two items on the giant screen, the ancient people of all dynasties were very curious:

What is the origin of these two seemingly ordinary things?

……

[This collection looks very low-key, but in fact, this palm-sized national flag and several fragments in the small ball are a heavy national gift given to the No. 1 leader by the Secretary of State of the United States, Kissinger, when he visited China. 】

[Why is such a small gift a heavy gift? 】

[Kissinger's secret visit to China was on July 9, 1971. This era can be said to be a critical moment when the US-Soviet hegemony was in full swing. Both sides did everything they could to compete for the first place. 】

[Big Brother astronaut Gagarin became the first human to enter space, and the United States wanted to be the first to land on the moon in order to surpass him. 】

【So the Eagle Country gathered all its strength and sent three astronauts, Armstrong, Aldrin and Collins, to the moon in July 1969. Armstrong also became the first human to land on the moon. 】

【And the national gift that Kisinger gave to the No. 1 leader, this small Eagle flag is one of the flags that once flew in space, and the several black and gray fragments in the small ball are lunar rock samples collected by the Eagle Country astronauts from the moon. 】

……

After understanding the origins of these two things, many ancient people in all dynasties were shocked.

This is indeed a precious gift.

Especially the few pieces of lunar fragments, which are really rare.

They remember that the Dragon Country will not be able to land on the moon with a machine and collect lunar soil until 2020.

This gift was sent by the Eagle Country in 1971. As you can imagine, for the Dragon Country at that time, these moon fragments were extremely precious and could be said to be priceless treasures.

It must be said that the Eagle Country was very generous in sending this gift.

……

The plane of Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty.

After reading this background story, Li Shimin pondered in his heart.

He felt that the Eagle Country sent these two things as state gifts at that time, not just because they were extremely precious.

AlsoIt means showing off the strength of the United States.

It can express goodwill and imply threats.

"Interesting."

Li Shimin chuckled.

He thought this was normal. The exchanges between countries usually have their own plans.

It is not surprising that it is reflected in the state gifts.

……

[Fourth, porcelain swans. ]

[In February 1972, the visit of President Nick Song of the United States to China was called an ice-breaking trip and was a major event that attracted worldwide attention. ]

[This set of porcelain swans is the state gift sent by Nick Song during his visit to China. ]

[It was personally fired by Edward Marshall Bohm, a famous biologist and songbird hard porcelain firing master of the United States. There are two large ones and three small ones. ]

[This set of swans is very delicate and beautiful. There are only two sets in total. 】

[The first set stayed in the Eagle Country, where it was exhibited everywhere and was enthusiastically sought after. The second set was given to the Dragon Country. 】

……

Looking at the lifelike porcelain swans on the sky screen.

Many common people in all dynasties thought it was exquisite.

But for many emperors who were used to seeing treasures, these porcelain swans were beautiful, but there was not much surprise.

It was far less amazing than the national gifts we saw before.

Some emperors even felt that it was a bit shabby for the president of the Eagle Country to give this as a national gift.

……

[Nik Song personally introduced the meaning of this set of swans to our leaders:

The swan is not only a precious animal loved by the people of the Eagle Country, but also a precious animal loved by people all over the world. It symbolizes purity, friendship and peace.

This time the swan flew to the Dragon Country to seek friendship, peace and cooperation. 】

……

“So that’s how it is.”

The ancient people of all dynasties understood it now.

So this is the deep meaning.

……

[There is a little episode about this state gift. ]

[The long-distance bumps and the negligence in packaging caused the fifth feather of the ceramic swan to be damaged, and it had to be glued on. ]

[For this, Nick Song personally apologized to the No. 1 leader. ]

[In response, the No. 1 leader took the swan and said with a smile: “Didn’t you reconnect the relationship between the two countries?” ]

[This humorous response not only shows the unique style of the No. 1 leader, but also adds a legendary color to this period of history. ]

……

Many emperors of all dynasties were amazed.

This answer, with a double meaning, really shows diplomatic wisdom.

……

[V. Rolex gold watch. ]

[Swiss was one of the first European countries to establish diplomatic relations with my country. This was a national gift given by Swiss to the No. 1 leader in 1968. ]

[It is worth mentioning that the day of the week is displayed in Chinese characters on the watch, so this watch is a very precious custom-made model. ]

[However,After receiving it, the leader tried it on for a while, and then put on his old watch again. 】

[This old watch was also the first watch of the leader. 】

[In August 1945, when he went to Chongqing to negotiate with Chiang Kai-shek, Mr. Guo, who was there to greet him, saw that he didn't have a watch and it was inconvenient for him to check the time, so he took off his Swiss watch from his wrist and gave it to him. 】

[The leader wore this watch until he died. 】

……

Many ancient people in all dynasties looked at the Rolex gold watch on the giant screen and felt very novel.

In ancient China, timekeeping tools were often huge.

Even if they were later made smaller, with small timekeeping tools such as hourglasses, incense clocks, and candle clocks, it was still too troublesome to carry them with you all the time.

They had never seen a timekeeping tool like this that could be worn on the wrist and easily carried with them.

"It's amazing."

Many ancient people exclaimed.

The plane of Emperor Chengzu of the Ming Dynasty.

Zhu Di stared at the giant screen, and he was very interested in watches.

But it was not because this Rolex gold watch looked valuable, but because he felt that this timekeeping tool was very useful.

For example, when marching and fighting, if you can check the time at any time, it will be very helpful for the dispatch of the army and the implementation of strategic plans by various armies.

"Can the Ming Dynasty make it?"

Zhu Di plans to ask the relevant craftsmen of the Ming Dynasty to try it.

……

[Six, bronze sculpture "Tree of Wisdom", presented by Kazakhstan. ]

[Under the tree of wisdom, two outstanding representatives of Eastern and Western sages: Confucius, the sage of China, and Ali Farabi, the son of the grassland of Kazakhstan, are talking to symbolize the similarities between the people of Kazakhstan and the people of China in terms of history and spiritual values. 】

[The lower part is a jasper base, on which are engraved Confucius's famous saying "Virtue is not alone, it must have neighbors" and Ali Farabi's famous saying "If people can help each other, the world will prosper."]

……

Spring and Autumn Plane.

Confucius was a little surprised.

He didn't expect that his image and words would appear in the state ceremony of later generations.

Behind Confucius.

His many disciples were happy.

……

[Seventh, Golden Peacock, presented by the Emirate of Alian.]

[This golden peacock is made of gold and inlaid with precious gems.]

[The peacock's scales are layered, and the textures are clearly visible. The gold and blue are alternating. The golden branches on the wings are separated one by one, and the golden silk feathers on the screen behind are connected and independent. 】

[Moreover, the length of each feather and the arc formed are precisely studied, very close to the matching proportions of real peacock feathers. 】

……

In many dynasties, many ancient people stared at the golden peacock in the sky, and said in amazementSigh:

"It's so beautiful, it's simply amazing!"

"It's so beautiful, so exquisite!"

Not only were many common people in ancient times attracted by this golden peacock, but even many emperors who owned countless treasures were fascinated by it.

This golden peacock is not only made of precious materials, but also has a very high level of craftsmanship.

Such a treasure made many emperors covetous.

……

[Eighth, wooden covered silver filigree inlaid with gems elephant, from Sri Lanka. ]

[The trunk and limbs are covered with engraved silver sheets, like armor, and there are gems inlaid on the silver sheets. On the elephant's back is the classic national treasure of Sri Lanka, the Buddha Tooth Pagoda. ]

[Ninth, gem-inlaid mandala, from Nepal. 】

[Inlaid with gemstones, corals and turquoise, and matched with hollow gold-plated copper filigree, the shape is square and round, and rich in balance. 】

[Ten, gold and silver malachite palace model, from Camel Country. 】

[This "square palace" is the palace shape of Camel Country and a landmark building in the capital Riyadh. 】

[Eleven, amethyst agate parrot, from Samba Country. 】

[Parrots symbolize good luck and are also the national bird of Samba Country. Paired with Samba Country's amethyst, it is perfect. 】

[……]

……

Accompanied by narration subtitles.

One after another, exquisite national gifts were displayed on the high-altitude giant screen.

The ancient people of all dynasties were overwhelmed!

"It's so beautiful!"

"It's so exquisite!"

In different dynasties, many ancient people were amazed.

These precious state gifts given to Longguo by different countries opened the eyes of the ancient people.

……

[The above introduction is only a small part. There are many state gifts received by the new Longguo since its founding. ]

[If the netizens in front of the screen are interested, if you have time, you can go to the imperial capital to see it in person. ]

[Because our country has regulations, gifts worth less than 200 yuan can be accepted directly, and those exceeding the value need to be handed over to the national treasury for unified collection. ]

……

Many emperors of all dynasties were shocked.

I didn't expect that Longguo in later generations would have such a rule.

In their respective dynasties, the gifts given to them by foreign countries would go directly into their own inner treasury, not the national treasury.. ........

……

[The "Central Gift and Cultural Relics Management Center" located in the imperial capital is where the country stores these state gifts.. ........ ]

[It contains state gifts received in diplomatic activities after the establishment of the new Dragon Kingdom, which are the ceiling of the gift industry. ]

[In addition, in addition to displaying the gifts we received, the museum also displays the state gifts we sent (spare parts). ]

[Basically porcelain and cloisonné, there are also a small amount of traditional Dragon Kingdom silk, tea sets, etc. ]

【It not only contains the traditional cultural characteristics of Longguo, but also integrates the style of the new era. Each exhibit is a pinnacle of modern handicrafts, fully reflecting the style of a great country, and is particularly worth seeing. 】

【By the way, this exhibition hall is still free to watch. The opening hours are from 9 am to 5 pm from Tuesday to Sunday. You only need to make an appointment in advance. 】

……

After listening to the conclusion of the video.

Many ancient people from all dynasties were shocked instantly.

The people of Longguo in later generations can actually watch these precious national gifts up close without spending money.

This makes them extremely envious.

……

In the sky-high giant screen.

The video is refreshed.

A new video appears.

【How did people defeat gods? ——The war between humans and gods in Chinese history, the truth behind the ancient war between gods! 】

……

As soon as I saw this line of big words.

Many ancient people from all dynasties were shocked.

"Human-god war? Did humans defeat gods?"

These contents attracted their attention.

In modern society where scientific knowledge is very advanced, many people still hold a positive attitude towards the question of whether there are gods in the world.

Not to mention the ancients.

In ancient China, although not 100% of the ancients believed in the existence of gods, at least the vast majority of them did.

Therefore, the content conveyed by the title of this video made the ancients very interested.

……

[Legend has it that in Chinese history, a "theocracy war" broke out. ]

[After this war, Zhuanxu, one of the Five Emperors, issued an order to isolate the heaven and the earth, which was called "the connection between the earth and the sky" by later generations. ]

[Today, I want to talk about the truth of this "theocracy war". 】

……

The plane of Taizu of the Great Ming Dynasty.

Zhu Yuanzhang asked in confusion:

"The connection between the heaven and the earth?"

He vaguely remembered seeing this statement before, but he couldn't remember it for a moment.

Seeing this, Zhu Biao said:

"This statement first appeared in the "Book of Documents·Lv Xing" of the Western Zhou Dynasty."

"The book says: 'The emperor sympathized with the common people and killed them innocently, and avenged the abuse with power, and stopped the Miao people, and there was no world below. He ordered Chong and Li to cut off the connection between the earth and the sky, and there was no downgrade.'"

"The general meaning is that Zhuanxu felt that gods and humans could not live in harmony, and the heaven and the earth must be separated. So he asked his grandsons "Chong" and "Li", one to support the sky and the other to support the earth, to separate the heaven and the earth, leaving only the celestial body of Kunlun Mountain as the only connection between heaven and earth."

"Gods are not allowed to descend to the earth, and humans are not allowed to go to heaven, so that neither humans nor gods can interfere with each other's lives."

At Zhu Yuanzhang's request, he began to study under the guidance of famous teachers at the age of six, and his knowledge was very extensive.

This 5.5 statement of "the connection between the heaven and earth" was actually seen in many ancient 5.5 books..

After listening to Zhu Biao's explanation, Zhu Yuanzhang nodded slightly.

"Is there really a god in the world?"

Zhu Yuanzhang pondered in his heart.

Among the ancient Chinese emperors, his attitude towards gods and immortals was the most special.

Looking at the emperors of all dynasties in China, they always seemed to be in awe of gods and immortals, especially for gods and immortals created by religions such as Taoism or the common people.

For the gods they liked more, they would take the form of conferring titles to honor them. For example, Song Zhenzong liked the Jade Emperor, and Song Huizong especially liked Lei Sheng Pu Hua Tian Zun.

But for the gods they didn't like very much, they would let it go and didn't dare to be too disrespectful.

Only Zhu Yuanzhang was different. He would really take action against the gods.

First of all, for the gods who needed to be kept for worship, Zhu Yuanzhang stipulated: "One signboard can only have one team, and you can't eat empty salaries in two places."

For example, there were originally many temples dedicated to the Thunder God in various places, but Zhu Yuanzhang believed that when worshipping the Lord of Heaven in the Temple of Heaven, the gods such as Fengbo, Yushi, Leigong and Dianmu had already enjoyed the treatment of worshipping together, so why bother to set up the Thunder God Temple?

So "the wind, cloud, thunder and rain are worshipped together in the southern suburbs, and the mountain and river altars have autumn reports, so this worship should also be abolished."

That is to say, all the worship activities of these gods were cancelled.

Secondly, he adopted a pragmatic policy in judging the gods, and used the method of "whether it is effective or not" to identify them.

"Prayers are worshipped if they are answered", and gods that are answered after prayers can be retained.

"Prayers are not answered, and they should also be dismissed", and those who are not answered after prayers are directly expelled from the "God List". For example, Longen Zhenjun, Chongen Zhenjun, Da and Xiao Qinglong Shen, etc., were all expelled from the "God" team in the Ming Dynasty.

From Zhu Yuanzhang's attitudes, we can see that he is actually skeptical about immortals.

So at this moment, he is also looking forward to the next content of this video. He wants to hear what people in the future will say about "immortals"? .
