The short video shows the ancient times, and the emperors cried with envy!

Chapter 817 How bold it is to put eunuchs on the same level as saints!
【Fifth, Wu Zetian. 】

[Although she is a woman, she has the talent and courage that are no less than that of a man. ]

[When introducing Wu Zetian, this book not only tells her legendary life experience, but also focuses on Wu Zetian's identity as the only empress, as well as the promotion of "feminism". ]

[They believe that Wu Zetian was the first woman in ancient Chinese history who dared to fight against male power.]

[In fact, the Eagle Country has its own selfish motives on this point. ]

[The reason why the Chinese people list Wu Zetian as one of the representative figures in Chinese history is more importantly because of her identity as a female ruler. ]

[This point just caters to the modern feminist thought trend of Eagle Country, which can express the importance Eagle Country attaches to the status of women. ]

[This is the political purpose of the Eagle State to include Wu Zetian in history textbooks and emphasize her introduction.]

Barrage:

——"The first woman in history to break the glass ceiling, respect!"

——"I am the queen in this wave. Come and fight me if you don't agree!"

——"In fact, everyone in Eagle Country understands that the Queen is the one who makes the decisions~"

……

Wu Zhou plane.

Wu Zetian stood in front of the sky, with the corners of her mouth gradually rising.

These people said that she was as talented and courageous as men, which was a bit underestimated.

Throughout her life, she sent troops to fight in all directions, quelled rebellions, created a whole new system of governing the country, and even made the surrounding countries bow down to her.

How many men can match these achievements?
Those old ministers in the court were picky and said that a woman's virtue lies in her lack of talent, but she insisted on being the one to break the rules.

After reading the following content, she felt that these foreigners had some vision.

The fact that she was included in the textbooks at least proves that a thousand years later, there are still people who recognize her talent.

When she ascended the throne, many people pointed fingers at her behind her back, saying that she was usurping the throne, being absurd, and going against the will of heaven.

But she did it, and she did it better than anyone else.

Although these foreigners regarded her as a representative of "feminism", she did not fully agree with this statement.

Her pursuit had never been to prove whether women could stand shoulder to shoulder with men.

Instead, he wanted to prove that in this big world, as long as you have real talent and knowledge, no matter whether you are a man or a woman, you can become a leader.

Although these foreigners could not fully understand what she did, at least they recognized her value.

This made her feel that the criticism and pressure she had endured had finally paid off.

However, what she wanted was not just the reputation as a female ruler, but the reputation of a truly successful emperor.

……

【No. 6, Zheng He. 】

……

Seeing Zheng He mentioned on the sky curtain, many ancient people were immediately moved.

How could a mere eunuch be compared with the kings and sages mentioned above?
But on second thought, it is amazing that Zheng He could be so highly respected by people from foreign countries a thousand years later.

I heard that the fleet he led was huge in scale, and its momentum was probably something that even the surrounding small countries had never seen before.

It is truly incredible that a eunuch could be included in history books.

It seems that the perspectives of people in later generations are very different from those of today.

Perhaps, when judging a person's value, we should not only look at his or her birth status, but also at his or her actions.

……

[I believe many netizens will find this person's choice extremely surprising. ]

[How could Zheng He, a eunuch of the Ming Dynasty, become a symbol of China along with the sage Confucius and four emperors? ]

[In fact, the reason is that Zheng He led the Ming Dynasty fleet to the Western Ocean seven times.]

[In "World History", the Eagle people mentioned that Zheng He was the first person in human history to sail, and the scale of his sailing was incomparable to that of Columbus and other European navigators. ]

[The Eagles also praised Zheng He, saying that when Zheng He discovered the New World, he did not think of turning it into a colony, but implemented the principle of "peaceful diplomacy."]

【Therefore, the Eagle people believe that Zheng He has noble character, which is also not possessed by European navigators. 】【The above are the six Chinese historical figures that the Eagle people have written into history textbooks. 】

[There is no doubt that these people are indeed historical celebrities who have made great contributions to China and the world. ]

[But Chinese civilization is as brilliant as a pearl, and the heroes of the great Chinese nation are far more than those mentioned in the textbooks of the Eagle Country.]

【We believe that as the Chinese nation becomes stronger and its cultural voice increases, more Chinese historical heroes will be seen by people around the world.】

[We will also inherit the spirit of historical heroes and use this confidence and heroism to support the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation. ]

Barrage:

——"So Zheng He is the ancient version of a global travel blogger?"

——"Others are scrambling for territory everywhere, but it is enough for Zheng He to visit here"

——"Columbus brought three small broken ships, while Zheng He directly drove an aircraft carrier formation"

——"Others colonize me while I make friends. This is the difference in our perspectives!"

……

The Ming plane.

"These Eagle men are so bold that they dare to put a eunuch on the same level as saints!"

Zhu Zhanji looked at the sky with a hint of displeasure in his tone.

Zhu Di turned to look at his grandson, smiled and shook his head.

"You care too much about these false reputations. Why did I send Zheng He to the Western Ocean?"

"Grandpa Emperor naturally wants to show off the power of our Ming Dynasty."

Zhu Zhanji was a little excited: "But these foreigners attributed all the credit to a eunuch. Shouldn't it be credited to your holy name?"

"You still don't understand."

Zhu Di pointed at the words dancing on the sky.

"Look at how these foreigners evaluate Zheng He's actions? Peaceful exchanges and treating others with courtesy. Isn't this the magnanimity of our Ming Dynasty?"

"As for who gets the credit, what does it matter?"

Zhu Zhanji wanted to say something, but Zhu Di raised his hand to stop him.

"People a thousand years later will still remember the achievements of our Ming Dynasty. This is what is most important."

"Besides, Zheng He did a good job. If it were someone else, they might not be able to do it so well."

After hearing this, Zhu Zhanji's expression eased a little, but he still felt that these foreigners were a little ignorant of the rules.

A eunuch is just a eunuch after all. How can he be compared with saints?
However, seeing that the Emperor didn't care, he suppressed these thoughts in his heart.

……

The Qing Dynasty plane.

"A mere eunuch is worthy of being compared with those emperors and saints?"

Emperor Qianlong looked at the contents on the sky curtain with a hint of contempt in his tone.

Yongqi beside him couldn't help but speak.

"Father, please read the records at the back. It says that the fleet he led was larger than those of the Westerners."

"It's not easy for a eunuch to be able to do this."

Qianlong's expression gradually became serious.

"If the Qing Dynasty could also send out a fleet like this and invite people from all over the world to come and pay tribute, wouldn't that be wonderful?"

"It's a pity that the current maritime ban..."

Yongqi hesitated to speak.

"Yes, Zheng He has given me a reminder. Perhaps it is time to reconsider the affairs at sea."

Qianlong looked at the sky thoughtfully, with a glimmer of longing in his eyes.
