The fragrant tea entered my throat and I felt energetic again.
I looked at the time, it was already four o'clock in the afternoon.
He turned on the TV and watched the news while leaning on his chair and scrolling through WeChat.
Today, the biggest news and breaking point is that the Donglai Autonomous Region has begun to announce the results of the college entrance examination.
Dongnai Autonomous Region is an enclave of the Federal Empire.
Speaking of which, this enclave has a lot to do with the legendary Sun family.
I think back then, after the Hundred Years' War, the land of Qin was turbulent and entered an era of great changes.
Emperor Fran took the lead and started Qin's modernization reform.
As a result, he was targeted by the entire world - except for the Federal Empire, everyone in the world was his enemy!
However, the Federation Empire hated foreign wars after the Hundred Years' War, and could only provide moral and resource support at best.
Therefore, Emperor Fran had no choice but to ask the Sun family, known as the richest man in the world at the time, for help in mediating.
Through this mediation, a piece of land in the Kingdom of France was sold.
This land is very small, located on the Red Sea between Kunlun Prefecture and Qinlu.
It is an island with an area of less than 30,000 square kilometers.
At that time, the price was 5 million federal Chinese dollars, equivalent to 500,000 taels of gold.
This is a friendly price!
However, the Sun family had no use for the land, so it was given as a gift to the then Emperor Dezong.
Emperor Dezong took a look...
I remembered Emperor Gaozong’s legacy: Don’t do evil because it’s small, don’t do good because it’s small. Colonial aggression, interference... are all unjust acts... Anyone who does one of my descendants is not my descendant.
!
Therefore, he decisively refused and sent envoys and cabinet representatives to Dongnai Island to prepare for the independence and freedom of Dongnai Island.
but……
The Federal Empire never expected that Donglai people would not do it!
As soon as the envoys and representatives landed on the island, they were surrounded by local people.
When I heard that the emperor actually ignored them and wanted to give them independence.
Immediately, he started throwing things and rolling around on the ground, crying and fighting.
What's even more tragic is that at that time, the Federal Empire thought that this would be a good publicity point, so it sent a large delegation of reporters to go with the delegation.
Then……
Under countless flashlights, photos of Donglai people crying and fighting were published in major local newspapers in turn.
In particular, in one of the photos, a certain chief of Donglai Island found an iron certificate from the Alchemy Book given to them by the previous emperor.
After checking the history books again, it seems that Zheng He sent people here before?
Moreover, there are descendants of the crew who may have settled here.
According to the examples of the Southern Zhou Dynasty and the Northern Zhou Dynasty, the relevant content of Article 12 of the Constitution can be invoked.
But the problem is, even if there is a lot of evidence.
However, the people of Donglai Island are completely different from the mainland of the Federation in terms of skin color, culture, and customs.
It cannot constitute the three necessary conditions for joining the Empire in Article 12 of the Constitution.
then……
The imperial cabinet was in chaos.
The Donggrai issue triggered the first constitutional crisis.
In the end, the matter had to be submitted to Dali Temple for trial.
The nine great guardians of Dali Temple took on the task of interpreting the constitution in a formal sense for the first time.
After several years of trials and deliberations, the Grand Protector of Dali Temple finally rejected the request of the Donglai Kingdom to join the Federal Empire by a vote of 5 to 4.
The reason is: Although Dongnae Island has a long relationship with the empire, and there is evidence that the ancestors of the empire once settled here... However, in accordance with the principles of the Constitution and the many interpretations of Taizu, Taizong, and Gaozong, Dongnai Island
It does not constitute a necessary condition for joining the empire... However, taking into account the feelings of the people of Donglai and the relevant history... it is recommended that the central government legislate to allow Donglai to participate in the cooperation of the imperial family in some form...
Thus, Dongnae Autonomous Prefecture was born.
This is an autonomous territory that is never marked as imperial territory on the map, but is actually no different from imperial territory.
Everything in the local area is in accordance with the imperial system.
The local people enjoy all the rights of the people of the empire except the right to vote and be elected.
At the same time, the central finance department allocates funds every year to take care of it, using the name of "special budget".
Although the money is very small, it is only a few million every year.
But Dongnai covers less than 30,000 square kilometers in total, and the total population adds up to hundreds of thousands.
Relying on the large market and resources of the federal empire, these hundreds of thousands of people can directly live a life equivalent to that of the locals.
Advanced and complete infrastructure...
Highly developed network...
There are also unimaginably cheap grains, medicines, machinery...
Naturally, they also have the same level of education.
Donglai has a population of hundreds of thousands, but in the past hundred years, it has sent more than a dozen bachelors to the empire.
Dongnae people are even more outstanding in exams.
Every year, thousands of Donglai people come to the mainland to study at universities!
This time is no exception.
According to the published results, the university admission rate of more than 3,000 fresh graduates in the Donglai examination area is close to 60%.
Among them, there are more than 200 people whose scores have reached the standards of key universities!
Lingpingan looked at the photo on Weibo and was filled with emotion.
"Actually, I might also be one of the Donglai candidates..."
The Federal Empire has two support points in Kunlun State.
One is Malin and the other is Donglai.
Malin Naval Base and Donglai Air Force Base are two helping hands extended by the Empire to Kunlun Prefecture.
Every year, tens of millions of tons of aid materials enter Kunlun Prefecture through these two places.
Most of it is food and medicine.
Most of the children of foreign aid workers go to school in Donglai.
It is relatively safe there and has facilities that are as developed as those in the mainland.
Therefore, Lingpingan had actually packed his bags and prepared to go to Donglai to study.
As a result, his parents died unexpectedly.
The matter was shelved.
Now, looking at the pictures of the beautiful Donglai Island on WeChat, Lingpingan is full of emotions.
He closed the phone and leaned back on the chair.
"Now that the Donglai results have been announced..."
"Soon, the results of the Western Song Dynasty and the mainland will be announced one after another..."
"I wonder, can Jiangcheng City counterattack Baoan this year?"
Thinking about the ridicule Baoan people had made towards Jiangcheng City in the past ten years, Lingpingan had some expectations.
For people in the Federal Empire, poor performance is really a subject that is easier to ridicule than poor economic performance.
after all……
From ancient times to the present, the status of education has been higher than economics!
Officials in ancient times were more effective in teaching than anything else!
Therefore, although the economy of Jiangcheng City has always been better than that of Baoan, there is really no way that the performance is not as good as Baoan.
People from Bao'an on the forum said as soon as they started talking: We who work hard and study hard will not associate with the philistines!
As soon as he opened his mouth, it was Lao Zuan!
But I still can't refute it.
Especially last year, Baoan No. 1 Middle School suddenly produced a national champion!
That's really it...
Dimensionality reduction attack!
"Calculating the time, according to the rules of previous years, the results of Guangnan District can only be checked the day after tomorrow..."
“I hope I won’t be oppressed by Baoan people again!”
Baoan and Jiangcheng have been enemies since ancient times.
For everyone in Jiangcheng, there is a popular Internet slang that can be described in a straightforward way - Anyone can lose, but Baoan cannot lose!
Thinking of this, Lingpingan remembered something that gave him a headache - the day after tomorrow, when Guangnan District's college entrance examination results can be checked, seems to be the day when the royal commissioner comes to visit.
So, he lowered his head and began to think about how to deal with the troublesome commissioner.
The rhetoric of the past is probably no longer useful.
After all, he is 24.
I can no longer use excuses like 'I'm still young' or 'I don't want to fall in love too early'.
It’s also difficult to use excuses such as ‘I don’t have time’ or ‘I’m very busy’.
After all, age comes into play here.
Even if you say it's broken, people won't recognize it.
And the royal commissioners are very patient guys.
Lingpingan read an example online. In order to help a poor village in the northwest get rid of poverty, the imperial poverty alleviation commissioner actually left the comfortable life in the imperial capital and went to the plateau village to eat and live with the people.
A remote village was suddenly transformed into a modern countryside.
For this reason, he stayed there from the age of thirty until he was forty-five!
A whole fifteen years!
From a prime-year official, he turned into a black-faced man!
This is a very touching story.
However, if Lingpingan faced such a person, he knew that he had no chance of winning.
"But I really don't want to go..."
he lamented.
What's so good about the Imperial City?
There are high-rise buildings everywhere, luxury cars and mansions everywhere.
There is nothing delicious and nothing interesting.
