After my inner voice was eavesdropped, I became the favorite of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 94

"Electric trains must have air conditioning. Even buses have it, so how could higher-end cars not have it?" After saying this, everyone hurriedly ate breakfast and bought some dry food for the journey. Then, they headed to the train station with great anticipation.

The train station was bustling with people. They watched the hurried passengers and listened to the trains arriving one after another, their hearts full of expectations and longings for the unknown journey. They knew that this trip was not only a relaxation and enjoyment for the body, but also a baptism and sublimation for the soul. They looked forward to finding their own happiness and satisfaction in this magical land of Dayan.

Speaking of the good things that were brought along to satisfy hunger during the trip, Qianlong and his entourage were truly eye-opening this time, and they discovered two more treasures, which added a bit of surprise and comfort to the journey.

The first treasure was the thermos, which was cleverly designed with a vacuum between two layers of glass, like a magic box. No matter whether it was boiling hot water or cold drinks, once they were put in, the temperature would be locked in without leaking. That day, Xiaoyanzi was excited and tried it herself. She poured the freshly boiled tea into the thermos, and when the sun set, it was still steaming hot when she took it out, as if it was just brewed. She couldn't help but marvel at it and exclaimed: "This thermos is really a must-have for travel!"

Another thing is instant noodles. The noodles are cleverly pressed into small cakes, which are firm but elastic. They are packed in a small bag and are easy to carry. Once they meet boiling water, the noodles will stretch out in a moment, exuding an attractive aroma. With the seasoning packet, the taste is so good that people can't stop eating. Xiaoyanzi had so much fun one day that she forgot about meal time and was so hungry that she kept growling. She accidentally saw someone enjoying steaming noodles in the shop downstairs. She was moved and ran to buy a bowl to try. This taste was amazing. She felt that the taste was like the food from heaven descending to the earth. It was so delicious that she almost cried. Seeing this, Yongqi, Ji Xiaolan and others also tried it. They all praised it and said that this instant noodles was both convenient and delicious, which was really a great pleasure on the journey.

As the journey progressed, they discovered more food treasures. There were canned luncheon meat, compressed biscuits, and all kinds of canned foods. Qianlong looked at these fast foods and couldn't help but ponder. He knew the truth that "food and grass must go before troops move." These easy-to-carry and easy-to-store foods are undoubtedly a huge help for marching and fighting. He couldn't help but sigh: "It's unexpected that the national strength of Dayan is so strong! Behind these small foods is the country's prosperity and technological progress."

One day, they arrived at the railway station in the southeast of Yancheng. When they arrived, they saw huge crowds of people, as if the entire city had gathered here to embark on their journey. Everyone was surprised to see Qianlong and his group of travelers with unique attire and extraordinary demeanor, and they all cast curious glances at them. With so many passengers and so much luggage, could the train really accommodate them?

There are two types of trains at Yancheng Station. One is a train specially used for transporting goods, with spacious carriages and large load capacity; the other is a train that carries people, with exquisite design and amazing speed. Ji Xiaolan stood in the crowd, frowning, muttering to himself: "So many people, so much luggage, can the train really carry it?" Although he had heard of the amazing carrying capacity of the train, he still found it a little unbelievable to see this spectacular scene with his own eyes.

He recalled that in the past, water transport was the main force of transportation, and the canal workers worked tirelessly to transport goods from all over the world. The Grand Canal was like a link, connecting the north and the south, allowing the smooth flow of goods. Although horse-drawn carriages and ox-drawn carts could also carry goods, they were weak and could not run far, and they were often unable to carry heavy loads over long distances. He had heard that in the past, when delivering urgent documents, horses often died on the way due to overwork, which was heartbreaking.

However, after the water transport, there are new things like trains and high-speed trains. They have changed people's travel methods with amazing speed and efficiency, and also overturned Ji Xiaolan's understanding of transportation. He looked at the busy train station in front of him, and his heart was filled with shock and emotion.

Qianlong stood in the crowd, with huge crowds of passengers on his left and mountains of goods on his right. He was shocked as never before. He sighed: "For a place like Yancheng, freight transportation is so prosperous. How prosperous must Jinling be as the capital? The annual tax revenue must be too much to count..." His eyes were shining with longing for the future and pride in the national strength of Great Yan.

Yongqi, as the best among Qianlong's sons, was outstanding in all aspects except for his infatuation in love. What he saw and heard along the way gave him a deeper understanding of the power of Dayan. He looked at the prosperous scene in front of him, and his heart was full of emotion: "Yes, with so many people and so many goods, the wealth created must be terrifying. The queen of Dayan is really an amazing heroine. It is no accident that she can establish such a dynasty. Her wisdom and courage are worthy of our admiration and learning."

As the train slowly pulled into the platform, Qianlong and his party embarked on a new journey. Their hearts were filled with curiosity and expectation about the unknown, as well as confidence and hope for the future of Dayan. What they saw and heard along the way not only gave them a deeper understanding of the world, but also made them more convinced that Dayan's future would be even better.

Ji Xiaolan stood in the crowd and couldn't help but sigh with emotion, with complex emotions flashing in her wise eyes. She whispered: "It's really strange, the changes in this world are so great that it's hard to keep up." Although her voice was light, it was filled with an indescribable shock. After hearing this, Qianlong felt mixed emotions, and a complex expression appeared on his face that had experienced vicissitudes of life. He was proud of the queen's great achievements. She was the heir he had cultivated, and her wisdom and courage made him feel gratified. However, he regretted that as a woman, in this era of male superiority and female inferiority, the pressure and suffering she endured far exceeded that of ordinary people. What made him even more sad was that for various reasons, there was an insurmountable gap between them as father and daughter, and the pain of separation was engraved in his heart like a knife. He sighed: "Alas, if Qingge was a prince, grew up in the deep palace since childhood, and did not experience so much displacement, how great it would be! Unfortunately, fate plays tricks on people!"

The group walked through the bustling crowd and the endless flow of cars, and every step seemed so difficult. They finally lined up, bought tickets, passed security checks, and finally arrived at the platform. The platform was empty, with only long railroad tracks crisscrossing and stretching, as if there was no end. Qianlong looked around in confusion, frowning, and asked, "Isn't this the station? Where is the train? Why can't I see even a shadow?" There was a hint of confusion and doubt in his voice.

Xiaoyanzi also looked around, her clear eyes full of curiosity. She asked in confusion: "Where's the train? Why haven't we seen it yet? Wasn't it the agreed time?" There was a hint of anxiety in her words, and it was obvious that she was looking forward to the upcoming train. Erkang touched his nose and frowned as he thought. Although he was usually cynical, he could always keep calm at critical moments. He pondered and said: "For such a large-scale means of transportation, the train must be a big one, how could it disappear out of thin air? But...what kind of existence is this train that makes so many of us wait for it?"

As soon as the words fell, there was a loud rumbling sound, like thunder rolling from the horizon. Passengers, carrying their luggage, shouted excitedly: "The train is coming! The train is coming!" "Luckily we came early and didn't miss this train." "It's my first time riding a train, I'm so excited!" Their voices were full of anticipation and excitement, as if what was about to arrive was not just a train, but a whole new world.

The rise of high-speed trains and trains has not been long, and Yancheng Station is also newly opened. Many people are here for the first time and have never seen the real face of a high-speed train. When they heard that the train was coming, they all turned around and stretched their necks, as if they were looking at a rare giraffe. Their eyes were full of curiosity and amazement, as if they were about to witness the birth of a miracle.

"It's finally here!" "I heard that this high-speed train can go directly to Jinling, the scenery of Qinhuai River must be beautiful." "And the queen has also held an imperial examination, which has attracted so many scholars. Jinling must be more lively." "There are four major happy events in life, and getting a name on the imperial examination is the most gratifying. Our court has never had a top scholar, maybe this time there will be one." "Although the top scholar is glorious, the third place is even better. He is both talented and handsome, which is really enviable. I have only heard about it in operas before, and now I can finally see it with my own eyes." The passengers talked about it, and their voices were full of longing and expectation for the future.

The platform was crowded with people, and Qianlong and his companions were squeezed here and there. They were amazed again and again, and the scene before their eyes was beyond their imagination. The huge body of the train slowly drove into the platform, and the red and white body of the train shone brightly in the sun. It was like a long dragon dancing, and it also looked like a string of houses, which made people marvel.

"Is this the train?" "It's so big, how much power is needed to pull it?" "It's simply amazing, so incredible!" Qianlong, Ji Xiaolan, Yongqi and others were stunned, their eyes full of shock and awe. Xiaoyanzi and Ziwei were like the heroines in Qiong Yao's dramas, exclaiming: "Oh my God! It's so scary, so amazing, I can't believe it!" There was a hint of fear and excitement in their voices, and it was obvious that they couldn't believe the huge size and amazing speed of the train.

Ziwei held Erkang's hand and asked nervously, "Are you dreaming?" Her voice was trembling, and she was obviously shocked by the scene. The people around him smiled and answered, "Yes, we were also scared when we took the train for the first time." "It's so big that it feels like even the power of the universe can hardly drag it." Their voices were full of understanding and comfort, as if telling Ziwei and Erkang not to be afraid, that this is a product of the new era and that we should be proud of it.

The train slowly stopped, the doors opened, and passengers boarded with their luggage. Qianlong and his companions followed the crowd and boarded the train, sitting in spacious seats. The train slowly started, the speed gradually increased, and the scenery outside the window unfolded like a scroll. They looked at the passing scenery outside the window, their hearts full of expectations and longings for the future. This new era, this era full of miracles and changes, made them feel both excited and nervous. They knew that the road ahead was still long, but they believed that as long as they took a brave step, they would be able to welcome a better future.

My son came back from primary school with an unprecedented excitement on his face, and his bright eyes seemed to be filled with bright stars. He couldn't wait to run to me, his little face slightly flushed with excitement, as if he had just experienced a wonderful adventure. "Dad, do you know? Those trains and EMUs are powered by oil. They have a name, called internal combustion engines." His voice was full of curiosity about the unknown world and the joy of exploring.

I listened with a smile, and I couldn't help but be shocked by the miracle of this new era. My son continued, "The rapid development of trains and EMUs is all thanks to our Queen. She invested a lot of silver in the early stage, countless billions of taels, and the subsequent expenditures were huge and continuous. Her determination and wisdom made all this possible."

When talking about Her Majesty the Queen, his son's eyes sparkled with admiration, a kind of admiration that was almost sacred. "Her Majesty the Queen is such an amazing person, she was able to create such an amazing means of transportation. She not only changed the way we travel, but also made our world wider."

I nodded, agreeing deeply. "Indeed, it is because of Her Majesty the Queen that we have these conveniences. Running water at home, gas for cooking, and various electrical appliances are all the blessings she has brought us. Her name, Li Qingge, has been deeply imprinted on every inch of land in Da Yan, and has become the most noble symbol in the hearts of the people."

The name of Queen Li Qingge is worshiped to the extreme in the hearts of the people of Da Yan. Whenever people mention her, they will show a look of admiration on their faces, as if she is a goddess descended from the sky, using her wisdom and strength to lead Da Yan to prosperity and wealth. Her image is tall and majestic, but full of love and care, which makes people feel awe and warmth.

Emperor Qianlong stood in front of the train, feeling as excited as a volcano about to erupt. He stared at the huge vehicle, his eyes flashing with wonder and anticipation. He thought, if this kind of transportation tool was used to fight, the army could travel thousands of miles a day, and supplies would continue to flow. The army of Da Yan was already strong, and with the help of the train, it would be even more powerful and invincible!
After a while, the door slowly opened, and Qianlong and his companions came to their senses and got on the train with their luggage. The interior of the train was clean and tidy, with bright lights, and everything seemed so orderly. They bought first-class seats, which were spacious and comfortable, and it felt like being in another world. The air conditioner sent cool air, making people feel a little cool even in the hot summer. The windows were made of tempered glass, and the scenery outside was clearly visible, like a flowing painting.

Passengers boarded the train one by one, and after the door closed, the train slowly started moving. Xiaoyanzi opened her eyes wide and cried out in surprise: "The train is moving! It's really moving!" Her voice was full of curiosity and excitement about the unknown. Ziwei also exclaimed: "Oh my God! This is incredible!" Her face was filled with admiration and awe for the new era of technology.

A conductor nearby heard their exclamation and couldn't help but turn her head. She saw the surprised expressions of Xiaoyanzi and Ziwei. Although she thought they were a little exaggerated, her professional ethics made her just smile. In Dayan, the concept of customer first has penetrated into every industry. She asked softly, "Dear passengers, do you need any fruits, drinks, or instant noodles?" Her voice was gentle and kind, making people feel the enthusiasm and hospitality of the people of Dayan.

The train was moving very fast, and the scenery outside the window flashed by. Qianlong breathed rapidly, staring outside without blinking. He saw the trees, mountains, and rivers flying by, and an indescribable shock surged in his heart. Although he had seen many wonders during his visit to Dayan, none of them was as shocking as this one. It is really hard to believe that there are such magical things in the world without experiencing it in person. It can run a thousand miles in a day, which is something that horses cannot compare to. And its transportation capacity is more than ten times stronger than that of the canal.

Qianlong's thoughts were running fast, and his heart was filled with pride and honor for his daughter Li Qingge. Is my daughter really the reincarnation of a goddess? How can she always create such miracles? If gender is not taken into account, Li Qingge is really an extraordinary person. From ancient times to the present, no monarch has achieved so many great deeds like her. Improving rice varieties, building roads, developing industries, and benefiting the people... Each of these surpasses the achievements of my ancestor Emperor Kangxi.

He thought about it, and a gratified smile appeared on his face. He knew that his daughter was not only an outstanding monarch, but also a great mother. She used her wisdom and strength to create a better future for the people of Dayan. And he, as her father, felt extremely proud and proud.

The train continued to speed, and people in the carriages were either chatting, or enjoying the scenery outside the window, or resting their eyes. Everyone was enjoying the convenience and comfort brought by the new era of technology. Emperor Qianlong was immersed in his thoughts and admiration for his daughter, and his heart was full of expectations and hopes for the future. He knew that under the leadership of Li Qingge, Da Yan's future would be better and more glorious.

The conductor pushed the dining car decorated with exquisite patterns slowly. The slight friction between the wheels and the track was particularly clear in the quiet carriage, interrupting Emperor Qianlong who was immersed in the contemplation of the future blueprint of Da Yan. He raised his eyes slightly, his eyes swept across the dazzling array of food, but in his heart he was still thinking about how to use this advanced means of transportation to strengthen border defense and enhance national strength. Yongqi, Xiaoyanzi and others sat around Qianlong. Although they were not hungry, they were curious about these novel and tempting snacks on the train and wanted to find out. Xiaoyanzi's eyes were shining. She gently pulled the sleeve of the fifth prince and whispered, "Look at these. We have never seen such food in the Qing Dynasty." So, several people picked a few snacks that looked quite special. After tasting them, they all showed surprise. These foods are not only delicious, but also many of them are special delicacies that they have never tasted before, which makes people have endless aftertaste.

The train shuttled across the vast land at an astonishing speed. The scenery outside the window flashed by like a movie scene. Even a thousand-mile horse could not catch up with it. It could only follow far behind, eating mouthfuls of flying dust, looking so weak and backward. But in the blink of an eye, the train arrived at Jinling City. Jinling, this famous city with a long history, has four railway stations distributed throughout the city, and their train stopped at the prosperous Jinling West Station.

It was still more than ten miles from the West Station to the city center, so Qianlong and his party planned to find a bus to go there first. However, before they walked out of the West Station, they heard that Jinling Metro Line 2 had already reached here, and in the future, multiple lines such as Line 5 and Line 7 would intersect here, forming a huge subway network. This is a transfer station for three lines, and passengers can directly transfer to the subway to reach every corner of the city center without leaving the station. When Qianlong heard that the subway was so convenient, much faster than the bus, and that Line 2 could also intersect with Line 1 at Queen East Station, which was the location of the Great Yan Palace, he couldn't help but secretly admire it.

The capital was prosperous, with the Forbidden City as its center; Nanjing was no exception, and the area around the imperial palace was always the busiest. People generally believed that where the emperor lived, there would naturally be a gathering of royal energy, the protection of the gods, and no evil spirits would dare to invade. After hearing this, Qianlong and others had even more yearning and expectations for Nanjing.

The group hurriedly checked their tickets and exited the station, following the signs to the subway station. Although the subway station is smaller than the train station, its design is extremely exquisite, perfectly blending the beauty of traditional and modern architecture. The lights in the station are soft and bright, illuminating every corner clearly. Jinling West Station is at the evening rush hour, and the flow of people is as surging as the tide, with dense crowds shuttling in and out of the station hall.

Qianlong and his companions took the elevator and slowly went down to the underground. Before they had time to take a closer look at the layout and decoration of the station hall, the subway to the city center had already roared into the station. The doors and screen doors opened at the same time, and passengers rushed in, fearing that they would lose their seats if they hesitated for a moment. The crowd was so surging that Qianlong and his companions were squeezed into the carriage before they had time to move.

The carriage was overcrowded. Logically, there should be no seats for so many people, but Xiaoyanzi was squeezed into a corner at the rear of the carriage. She struggled to stand up and looked down, and unexpectedly found an empty seat! She was delighted and sat down quickly, shouting: "I am so lucky to find a seat with so many people!" However, her good luck did not last long.

A fat woman staggered over, her big butt directly pressed against Xiaoyanzi's face. Xiaoyanzi raised her head with great effort, and saw that the woman was about forty years old, with thick makeup on her face, but it could not hide the traces of time; the exaggerated large earrings on her ears swayed gently with her movements; her lips were painted red as bright and eye-catching as pig liver. As soon as the subway started moving, the car began to shake, and the fat woman's butt pressed against Xiaoyanzi's face.

Then there was a series of fart sounds, the stench was unbearable, Xiaoyanzi almost vomited, and was about to curse in anger.

"Puff! Puff! Puff!" The fat woman didn't seem to notice her own loss of composure, and instead let out three loud and smelly farts in a row. As the saying goes, loud farts don't smell, and smelly farts don't sound, but this woman's farts were both good. Xiaoyanzi was the closest to her and suffered the most, and she almost wanted to vomit her dinner from the day before yesterday. She angrily cursed, "You fat bitch, are you trying to stink me up on purpose? Are you looking for death?"

The fat woman was already ashamed of farting, and when she heard the three words "fat bitch", she was even more furious. She simply turned around and pointed her butt at Xiaoyanzi and farted a few more times: "Puff! Puff! Puff!" Xiaoyanzi was so irritated that she screamed and bent over to vomit. Other passengers in the car also cast dissatisfied glances at her, but the fat woman didn't seem to care and continued to occupy the seat that didn't belong to her.

Seeing this, the Fifth Prince stepped forward to comfort Xiaoyanzi and tried to reason with the fat woman. However, the fat woman rudely rejected their request and even insulted them with dirty words. Emperor Qianlong could not stand it anymore. He walked up with a gloomy face and shouted: "How can you be so rude, woman? Apologize to this girl quickly!"

The fat woman was a little scared when she saw the extraordinary aura of Emperor Qianlong. But she was reluctant to give up this rare seat, so she said, "I, I didn't do anything, why should I apologize?" Emperor Qianlong sneered and said, "You farted and you think you are right? Apologize quickly or I will punish you!"

When the fat woman heard the word "punishment", she was so frightened that she trembled all over and quickly stood up from her seat to apologize to Xiaoyanzi, "Yes, I'm sorry, girl, I was wrong, please don't be angry." Seeing her sincere attitude, Xiaoyanzi did not pursue the matter any more. She just glared at her and turned away and ignored her.

After the turmoil, the carriage returned to peace. Emperor Qianlong and his companions also arrived at the city center smoothly and began their journey in Jinling. This unpleasant experience also added a bit of unpleasantness to Xiaoyanzi's first impression of Jinling. But she believed that Jinling would bring her more surprises and joy in the days to come.

"Puff! Puff! Puff!" A series of stinky farts exploded in the closed subway car like a string of cannonballs. Each sound was accompanied by an indescribable stench, as if it were a tangible wave, impacting Xiaoyanzi's senses one after another. She frowned, her small nose was almost wrinkled into a ball, and her usually lively eyes were now full of helplessness and disgust. Xiaoyanzi was almost fainted by the sudden stench. She had never encountered such a disgusting thing in her life. The frustration and anger in her heart were like a volcano about to erupt.

"It stinks! This fat woman!" Xiaoyanzi cursed in her heart. The world in front of her seemed to become dim because of the stench. Breathing became extremely difficult. Every breath she took seemed to challenge her limit. She wanted to take this fat woman out and let her know what public etiquette was. So, she desperately pushed the "mountain of meat" beside her, trying to find a little breathing space in this crowded carriage to avoid the almost suffocating stench.

However, it was rush hour in the subway, and the carriage was packed with people, most of whom were scholars rushing to Beijing to take the imperial examination. They were either studying hard or resting their eyes, but they were all disturbed by the sudden stench. People were so crowded that there was not even a gap. Xiaoyanzi's strength was like an egg hitting a stone in this airtight crowd, and she couldn't even move the corner of the fat woman's clothes.

The fat woman seemed to be completely unaware of the dissatisfaction of the people around her. She had eaten a lot of onions at noon, and now she was full of energy. Once she started farting, she kept farting, as if she was conducting a silent protest. Xiaoyanzi was irritated by the stench and wanted to vomit. Tears and snot flowed uncontrollably. She clenched her teeth tightly, as if to suppress the gasping sound that was about to come out. Although the passengers next to her did not smell the smell directly, they were also irritated by the stench in the air and covered their noses. Their faces were ugly. Some people even began to complain in a low voice. The atmosphere in the car became extremely tense for a while.

"Oh, what's wrong with this world!" Xiaoyanzi lamented in her heart. Fortunately, there are ventilation equipment in the subway, which occasionally sends a little fresh air, otherwise everyone would suffocate to death. She was so suffocated that she had no desire to live. She was so angry that she couldn't express it in words. She could only silently endure this humiliation and discomfort.

Looking at Qianlong, Yongqi, Erkang and others, although they were also squeezed hard, at least they did not suffer the same fate as Xiaoyanzi. Qianlong stood by the door of the car. He was wearing a luxurious gown. Although he seemed a little out of place in the crowd, his innate temperament made him particularly eye-catching. He looked through the window at the lights of the tunnel passing by. Between the light and shadow, his eyes revealed some emotion. Qianlong thought that this subway was like an underground version of a high-speed train. It is not easy to build roads on the ground, but it is even more difficult to dig tunnels underground. Especially for this kind of long tunnel, not only do you have to avoid water flow and pass through hard rocks, but you also have to ensure the safety and efficiency of construction. The difficulty is extraordinary!
Qianlong's thoughts drifted back to his previous experience of riding a high-speed train. At that time, he was already amazed by the magic and convenience of the high-speed train. Unexpectedly, this subway is even more powerful than the high-speed train. As soon as he entered the station, he saw the intricate subway network map. There are four lines that have been built, hundreds of stations, and more are planned in the future. It is simply going to hollow out the underground of Jinling! Such a project and such creativity can only be described as "incredible". Qianlong couldn't help but admire Li Qingge's foresight and execution. Such a woman is really rare in the world.

To be honest, building a subway is not easy, much more difficult than building a high-speed rail. In the future, it will cost 700 to 800 million yuan to build a kilometer of subway in a city. If the line is 20 to 30 kilometers, the cost will be tens of billions, which will put great financial pressure on the city. But then again, even the construction of high-speed rail is quite difficult, especially those lines that have to cross mountains and be built in the air, which are simply as difficult as ascending to heaven. The reason why Qianlong felt that the high-speed rail was not as difficult as the subway was that in order to quickly build the city and save money, Li Qingge tried to avoid those places with complex terrain and difficult construction when choosing the high-speed rail lines, and chose relatively easy sections to build. And those difficult places will be left until the technology is more mature and the funds are more abundant in the future, and then they will be slowly solved.

When Qianlong thought of this, he could not help but admire Li Qingge's wisdom and courage. He looked at the people in the carriage and thought to himself: If these scholars can be as far-sighted and pragmatic as Li Qingge, then there is no need to worry about the future of Da Yan.

At this time, the stench in the car seemed to gradually dissipate with the operation of the ventilation equipment, and Xiaoyanzi finally breathed a sigh of relief. She wiped her tears and snot, glared at the fat woman hatefully, and swore in her heart: I will never catch the subway during the evening rush hour again!

Qianlong continued to immerse himself in his own thoughts, thinking about how to apply these advanced transportation concepts and technologies to the governance of Da Yan, so that the people of Da Yan could also enjoy this convenience and comfort. His eyes flashed with determination, as if he had seen the future prosperity and prosperity of Da Yan.

Just like taking an exam, facing a complex situation, Qianlong and Yongqi decided to start with the easiest problems first, and put aside the difficult problems for later study. In this way, they could avoid wasting time and accumulate confidence and experience in the gradual solution, so as not to end up with nothing.

In the subway car, Qianlong and Yongqi were tightly surrounded by the surging crowd, as if they were in an endless sea of ​​people. Xiaoyanzi's light figure flashed in the crowd, like a meteor across the night sky, and disappeared in a flash. At this moment, Yongqi's mind had to withdraw from his concern for Xiaoyanzi and refocus on the important mission at hand.

Their eyes all fell on the subway, a giant steel dragon running underground. Inside the carriage, the lights were soft and bright, reflecting faces that were either curious or amazed. Qianlong and Yongqi were filled with indescribable shock. This subway was not only a crystallization of technology, but also a symbol of wisdom. The architectural wisdom and technical strength behind it made them dumbfounded, as if they had opened the door to a new world.

When they first saw it, they were surprised; then, they were stunned; and finally, they were completely convinced. In their hearts, they had a new understanding of the strength of the Great Yan Dynasty. Such infrastructure and such technical level, even after another hundred years, the Qing Dynasty would not be able to match it. Qianlong and Yongqi looked at each other, and there was a complex look in each other's eyes, both awe of the unknown and longing for the future.

However, Yongqi's expression suddenly became solemn. Those trivial thoughts about love seemed to be blown away by a sudden cold wind at this moment. He realized that the development of things might be much more complicated than they imagined, and the gap in strength between the Qing Dynasty and the Yan Dynasty might be even greater than they expected. When he thought about what would happen to the Aisin-Gioro family if the Qing Dynasty lost in this silent contest, Yongqi's face turned as pale as a sheet of paper, and his heart was filled with indescribable fear and uneasiness.

The subway slowly stopped at Queen East Station, the doors opened, and Qianlong and his party followed the crowd out of the station. At Exit 5, a soft light illuminated the road ahead and also illuminated their hearts. Looking up, the outline of the Great Yan Palace loomed in the night. The architectural style that perfectly blended classic and modern styles made people's eyes bright, as if they had traveled through a tunnel of time and space, witnessing the changes in history and the integration of culture.

Qianlong and his group walked along this road full of surprises, step by step towards the heart of Jinling. They knew that this place would bring them more shocks and surprises. However, among this group of people, only Xiaoyanzi's face was still gloomy, as if she was shrouded by a thick layer of dark clouds. In the subway, she was almost suffocated by the stench of the fat woman. Now her whole body was filled with the unbearable smell, and even her speech was accompanied by an indescribable stench, which made her feel extremely uncomfortable and embarrassed. Her only wish now was to find something with a fragrant smell to dispel this disgusting smell.

At this moment, Xiaoyanzi's eyes suddenly lit up, and she found a perfume shop called "Xiangpiaopiao" not far ahead. She seemed to have seen a savior, and rushed over with Ziwei. Seeing this, Yongqi and Erkang were afraid that something might happen to them in an unfamiliar place, so they hurriedly followed. Qianlong, Ertai and Ji Xiaolan stayed where they were, their eyes were attracted by the night view of Jinling, and they were reluctant to leave for a long time.

In Yancheng, they had already felt the prosperity and bustle of a modern city, but now in Jinling, they found that the prosperity there was nothing compared to here. Hundred-meter-high buildings stood majestically, and the huge advertising screens played colorful pictures. The colorful lights illuminated the night sky of Jinling as bright as day. Qianlong and his companions were stunned and amazed, as if they were in a dreamlike world.
