January 1, 1899

With the momentum of the Philippines' victory, surrounded by distinguished guests from various countries and a group of ministers, the Ocean Kingdom held a grand ceremony to worship the heavens. King Li Fushou burned incense and worshiped the heavens and the earth, and told the gods of the heavens and the spirits of the ancestors and ancestors in heaven, and promoted them to the Emperor of the Ocean Empire.

Today, the Ocean Empire has become a climate, covering a vast territory of tens of millions of square kilometers. Its strength, population and land are all known as the world's emerging powers, especially the naval strength is the best in the Western Pacific region.

Taking this last step is both the destination of the public and the demand of the times.

Look around the world

The feudal powers in Eurasia are royal families, including the Qing Dynasty, Britain, Russia, Germany, Austro-Hungary, Ottoman, Fuso, Spain, Portugal, Brazil and other countries. Even the puppet regime of North Korea under the rule of Fuso State ascended the throne and became emperor. This is an era of coherence between the emperors.

On October 12, 1897, Lee Hee (Gozong of Korea), the 26th king of the Joseon Dynasty, claimed to be the emperor and changed the country's name to the "Dahan Empire".

That's why

The Ocean Empire often felt inferior in its equal diplomacy with the powerful countries. The court and the people had strong will. Li Fushou had to follow the trend and ascend the throne and become emperor after three requests and three requests.

The newly built imperial capital was built on the original site of the Red Fort. In order to commemorate the ancestors, Li Fushou personally named it "Daming Palace".

The Daming Palace was originally the main palace of the Datang Empire, the political center and national symbol of the Tang Dynasty. It is located on the north side of Chang'an (now Xi'an), the Tang capital. It is the largest of the three main palaces in Chang'an City, Tang Dynasty (Daming Palace, Tai Chi Palace, Xingqing Palace), and is called the "East Nei".

Since Emperor Gaozong of Tang, 17 Emperors of the Tang Dynasty have handled government affairs here, which lasted for more than 200 years.

The Daming Palace of the Tang Dynasty was first built in the eighth year of Zhenguan (634) of Emperor Taizong of Tang Dynasty. It covers an area of ​​about 3.2 square kilometers. The entire palace area can be divided into two parts: the former dynasty and the inner dynasty. The former dynasty mainly consists of dynasty meetings, and the inner dynasty is mainly about living and banqueting.

The center of the previous dynasty was Hanyuan Hall (outside court), Xuanzheng Hall (middle court), Zichen Hall (inner court), and there were Taiye Pond, various other halls, pavilions, and dozens of other halls, pavilions, etc.

The newly built palace is located at the foot of the Red Mountains. It was originally a dense forest and the green lung of the entire Red River Valley metropolis. It is the largest forest reserve in the city, with streams crisscrossing, rugged rocks and extremely beautiful scenery.

Therefore, the newly built Daming Palace refers to the old examples of the Tang Dynasty. It is always the same as the layout of the palace. The three main halls, Daming Palace, Tai Chi Palace, and Xingqing Palace are arranged in sequence, with a well-organized layout, which is in line with the wonderful principles of heaven and earth.

During the construction of the palace, a new type of reinforced concrete foundation was adopted, and the walls were combined with the old beams, columns, and wooden and tenon techniques, so that the original building height was provided to greatly improve, making this palace in the prosperous Tang Dynasty more magnificent and imposing.

Considering that the ancient trees in the original forest are towering and clear streams are crisscrossing, the Daming Palace has made great changes in the inner courtyard and side halls outside the three halls, mainly to preserve as much forest vegetation as possible. The original rugged rocks and clear mountain stream scenery, the inner courtyard halls no longer retain the original pattern, but continue to the depths of the mountainous area along the mountainous landscape and environmental layout.

The total area of ​​the entire palace is planned to be 10 square kilometers. Except for the three main hall areas at the foot of the mountain, the main halls and pavilions extend to the depths of the coniferous mountains.

Its momentum is like a divine dragon but not a tail. It can be described as a forest palace with ingenious craftsmanship.

The entire Daming Palace construction project has only built three main halls. The many halls and pavilions in the rear need to be built for a long time, and it will take at least more than ten years.

Fortunately, some of the main buildings in Hongbao have not changed, such as Lingxiao Pavilion, Jingsi Pavilion where the Queen Gu Liuyan lives, Nuanxiang Pavilion where the concubine Xiang lives, Normandy Garden where the concubine Hui Feina lives, Xueguan IELTS Garden and other old buildings, which do not affect their residence.

One day later, the Ming Palace issued an order to make Gu Liuyan the queen and the third prince Li Siyuan the Duke of Shangri-La and the Crown Prince.

The seventh prince Li Sixuan is the Duke of Hawaii, the tenth prince Li Sixi is the Duke of Cebu, the eldest prince Li Siyuan is the Duke of Palawan, and the second prince Li Sihan is the Duke of Wright, so I admire this.

He was also awarded the title of Lieutenant General Lie Shuanzhu, the commander of the Royal Imperial Guard, and was awarded the title of Grand Secretary of Lingxiao Pavilion, the Director of the Royal Military Officer's Office, and the award of the ten medals of Diamond and Gold Swords and the Golden Oak Leaf Knight, and was promoted to the rank of General of the Army.

The other soldiers of the Imperial Guards were rewarded, and cheers resounded throughout the sky.

From now on

General Li Shuanzhu, the first-class Count of the Conquest, became the 11th earl noble in the empire and became the top nobles.

Lingxiao Pavilion

Among the many palaces and pavilions in the Daming Palace, Li Fushou loves Lingxiao Pavilion, which records the little things he has gone through along the way. From youth to middle age, the long years of 23 years have passed in a flash. He is now thirty-nine, with his children in groups, and time passes by like yesterday, which makes people sigh.

Today, he summoned General Li Fushou, the commander of the Royal Guards, to ask in detail about the current situation in the Philippines.

"I respectfully ask your Majesty for the peace."

"No gifts, see the seat."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

The etiquette of the king and his ministers kneeling down in the imperial court of the Ocean Empire was removed, and the vain slogans such as Wannian were also removed. Li Fushou, who originally wanted to remove "Sheng'an" and so on, but with the strong persuasion of the old scholars, he still stayed in the good manners.

Seeing his confidant general whom he specially cultivated, Li Fushou was quite satisfied. Li Shuanzhu was different from General Yuchi Shouzhu, the chief of the Army's General and Deputy Chief of Staff Mo Rufeng. He is now a representative of the new forces in the army. He is loyal to the royal family and will never mix with personal and family personal interests when executing orders. This is particularly important.

After all, the Luzon Islands affairs are still a bit shameful.

"Li Aiqing, it has been more than a year since he led his army to land on the Philippines Island. What is the situation ahead, is the society stable, and whether the local people have naturalized the empire. I want to listen to the real situation and listen to you one by one."

"As for your order, Your Majesty." General Li Shuanzhu bowed respectfully and was prepared for His Majesty's inquiry, so he said calmly;

"The situation in the Luzon Islands is much more complicated than Borneo before, and it requires ten times more energy, manpower and capital than that.

Thinking of the past

The total population of Borneo provinces is only more than 1.5 million. The total population is not large if the local Chinese and white people are deficient.

Even so, it took 4 to 5 years to get the treatment done.

The local indigenous population of the Luzon Islands exceeded 8 million, and in the more than 300 years of Spanish rule, there were constant uprisings and uprisings of all sizes, and resistance to power had a strong foundation in the local society.

So far

Although our army has severely suppressed, there have been sporadic riots and uprisings in the local indigenous people, and they have been pressed down on the gourd. There are many extraterritorial forces infiltrated and bewitched. We need to implement long-term stability policies to eradicate them, and establish the foundation for the stability of the empire for hundreds of generations. I am willing to enter the Avici Hell without any regrets!"
