Unconsciously, the train arrived at "Yongqing Changchun",

Not long after, Zhang Peilun's figure appeared in this royal garden.

Zhang Peilun followed the guidance of the steward and eunuch, walking in a long corridor, he felt the extraordinary breath and admired the lush trees. At this time, it was drizzling in the sky, and there was a faint mist in the sky, which actually gave him a feeling of soaring clouds and fog and fluttering fairyland......

"Yongqing Changchun" is built by the mountain and lake, the lake here is wonderful in nature, and the garden is expensive in artificial. In such a small world, the craftsmen adapted measures to local conditions, planted flowers and trees, and built pavilions along the Fulei soil, which achieved the beautiful natural scenery here.

When I came to "Yongqing Changchun", Zhang Peilun's favorite place belongs to the promenade here. These corridors are like ribbons, closely connecting the various scenery of "Yongqing Changchun", and it can be said to be the longest corridor in ancient buildings and gardens in Middle-earth. The corridor itself is a beautiful gallery, with colorful paintings painted on each beam between the corridors, and Zhang Peilun roughly counted more than 14,000 in total, all of which are different. These colorful paintings are brightly colored, and the content is mostly landscapes, flowers and birds, and the storylines of classical characters in Middle-earth.

The colors of this garden are mostly golden or red, and the colors are bright. Sometimes, a cornice can be seen in the green bushes, yellow and green, contrasting with each other. Most of the palaces and pavilions here are paved with beautiful glazed tiles, and the red prisms and pillars look solemn and elegant. When you come to the palace, the floor is paved with gray bricks, and the walls are also gray, which is in harmony with the surrounding scenery. "The moss marks are green, and the grass is green", which can be described as simple and elegant, with a unique style.

Thinking that it was because of Lin Yizhe that this garden, which had always been remembered by the Empress Dowager Renxi and had not been rebuilt after being burned down by the British and French forces due to the advice of the officials, was able to regain its former style, Zhang Peilun's heart was full of mixed feelings for a while.

There has been a great deal of controversy over whether to rebuild the Qingqi Garden, and opponents believe that the rebuilding requires a lot of money to solve, and the current state is not financially sufficient and the people's livelihood is embarrassed, so the money should be used in more important places, rather than rebuilding this "Garden of Ten Thousand Gardens".

Supporters believe that the rebuilding of the Qingqi Garden is a symbol of "revitalizing the people's morale" and a proof of the restoration of the national strength of the Great Qian Empire, so it is necessary to rebuild it.

Is it to restore the beautiful dream of the past, or to preserve the ruins left behind by the war? The argument between supporters and opponents has continued unabated, and the conflict between the two sides is fierce.

Putting aside these political controversies, Zhang Peilun, as a traditional scribe, has always imagined with regret the peerless beauty of Qingqi Garden. Zhang Peilun has always believed that as a unique royal garden and a well-deserved "first garden in the world", Qingqi Garden is a shocking dream masterpiece that should not disappear from the vision of the people of China!

But he was also well aware of the enormous human and financial resources it would take to repair it.

It's just that he didn't expect that Lin Yizhe would "hold his thick legs" in order to protect himself and the foreign affairs he had worked so hard to create, and miraculously restore part of this "Garden of Ten Thousand Gardens" to its former glory, how could he not be excited!

In the past, he always believed that there was a natural irreconcilable contradiction between the "navy" and the "gardener", and that if you want to build a navy, you can't build a garden, and if you want to build a garden, you will inevitably not be able to build a navy, but what he didn't expect was that Lin Yizhe would be able to use the gardener to run the navy through a series of dazzling operations such as "overseas Chinese businessmen reporting their benefits", "felling Tainan", and "escorting shipping"!

No matter how the rumors accuse Lin Yizhe of instigating the palace to "build a large number of buildings" and "work the people and lose money", it is a rare achievement to leave a beautiful royal garden for the world without harming the national strength!

Guys who talk empty words and mislead the country are not qualified to accuse people who do practical things!

Zhang Peilun retracted his thoughts, and soon, he came to a palace in "Yongqing Changchun" to meet the two queen mothers.

After Zhang Peilun finished the ceremony, the Empress Dowager Renxi smiled and gave the seat, and when Zhang Peilun sat down on the embroidery pier, the Empress Dowager Renxi comforted a few words, and suddenly asked: "I heard that Lin Wenxiang's widow was found by you?" ”

Zhang Peilun understood why the Empress Dowager Renxi wanted to summon him today, and replied respectfully: "Back to the Empress Dowager's words, on the day Lin Wenxiang died, the minister happened to go to visit, at that time Mrs. Lin was grief-stricken and could not be in charge, the minister occasionally saw that there was a paper on his case, picked it up and took a look, only to know that it was Lin Wenxiang's sparse draft, and then did not find the original draft, the minister thought that Lin Wenxiang was seriously ill and failed to prepare the manuscript. ”

"I see." Empress Dowager Renxi sighed, "What he never forgot on his deathbed was still the navy, but how did he know that when he went, there would be someone ......to replace him."

"What the Queen Mother said is extremely true, as soon as Lin Wenxiang is gone, the people who have lost the presiding officer of the navy will be shocked and uneasy. The minister thought that the urgent task at the moment was to take over the task of simply selecting capable personnel, so that the affairs of the navy would not be delayed. Zhang Peilun said, "Now that the war with Japan has ended, the Japanese have suffered a great setback, although there is a peace treaty, hearing that Lin Wenxiang is gone, our navy is unstable, and it is inevitable that it will be provocative again, but it is worrying." ”

"What you said is very true, in your opinion, how to handle it now?" Empress Dowager Renxi nodded, her eyes flashed with appreciation, and she asked again.

"If you go back to the Empress Dowager, the position of Minister of the Sea is the most important, and you need to send a capable person to take it as soon as possible. At present, the five ships of the Shipmaster and Naval Division are stationed in the Ryukyus, and the rest of the ships are divided back to the defense areas of the provincial naval divisions, and the troops are too scattered, and the orders are different, and once something happens, it is difficult to unite as one. Zhang Peilun replied.

"What you said is very good, the establishment of the Sanyo Naval Division, just do as you said, go back and write a fold, put the specific articles in a column, and after the Council of Ministers, even if it is implemented."

"Commandment." Zhang Peilun knew that his purpose had been achieved in this visit, and his heart was full of joy.

At the end of the visit, Zhang Peilun left the "Yongqing Changchun", took the train to the Huangchenggen Station, got off the train, and took the carriage back to the residence of Xianliang Temple, as soon as he entered the door, a servant sent a telegram.

Zhang Peilun noticed that the telegram was sent by Li Shaoquan, and quickly opened it and read it.

“…… As you expected, the Rongdeng Naval Division mutinied, and Dongfu could not control it, and now the Beiyang Naval Division is in Weihai Bay, and plans to transfer troops to the bomb pressure ...... one or two."
