The video is connected to all dynasties, and the opening editing is an emperor through the ages!

"She, the Empress Dowager Cixi, has a level of luxury that I have never heard of or seen before. The dignity of our Han people has also been lost because of this woman. Although the government is in turmoil and the national power is weak, since the Empress Dowager Cixi is actually in power, she must bear this responsibility. This first, she deserves it!"

Gao Yang's voice is rare with a wave of anger, which has never been seen in previous projection videos!

Qin Shihuang, Han Wudi and all the emperors all looked serious.

Is the dignity of the Han people lost through the ages?

These words hurt them deeply.

Whether it is Qin Shihuang, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, or Zhao Kuangyin, they regard the dignity of the Han people above everything else!

The same is true for Cao Cao. The Three Kingdoms are in chaos, and no matter who the eighteen princes rule the world, Cao Cao will not say a word!

But now the dignity of the Han people is gone?

This……

He narrowed his eyes.

A murderous aura boiled all over his body.

The projection shows that this is a weak era, the people are poor, the government is corrupt, and there are foreigners with muskets outside, staring at tigers, while inside the dynasty, countless people fleeing from famine cannot eat enough to keep warm, and even some children are extremely hungry. Picking up the soil on the ground and swallowing to satisfy their hunger, even so, some people still died of hunger on the road!

He was starved to death alive!

Gao Yang's sad voice also sounded.

"For about 5000 years, the most prodigal family is the Empress Dowager Cixi!"

"He is even worse than No.2 Song Huizong! He is even more extravagant than Emperor Qianlong of the Qing Dynasty!"

While speaking, the picture slowly fluctuated, this is an endlessly prosperous palace!

A long table appeared on the screen, and there were dishes that could not be seen at a glance. The people who watched the projection were counted, and they typed in the comment area, there were no less than dozens of dishes!

But on this table, there was only an extremely complicated woman dressed in gold and silver!

One person, dozens, even hundreds of dishes!

How extravagant?

But she just picked up the chopsticks and took a few sips, then wiped her mouth and put down the chopsticks.

Obviously full.

"Empress Dowager Cixi, according to the imperial standard, one hundred dishes per meal! Three meals a day are all like this!"

"To take a bath, you need to use forty tribute towels with complicated workmanship!"

"There are as many as a dozen servant girls!"

"Going out, equipped with fifty stoves, fifty chefs, and one hundred dishes, the same must be done!"

"All my life, I love fruits, especially apples. I consume 15 apples every year, and only take the best apples!"

Every time Gao Yang said a word, the corresponding picture appeared on the projection.

At this moment, all the emperors who saw this scene were shocked. Is there still such a person in the royal family of later generations? !

This Empress Dowager Cixi is so extravagant, even they, who are emperors, can't believe it!

This is even beyond their cognition!

Then came endless anger soaring into the sky!

Chapter 29 The Furious Kangxi

"One hundred dishes at a time? With so many dishes, how much does she have to waste by herself! People depend on food, and she is so wasted!"

In Xianyang Palace, Qin Shihuang immediately stood up when he saw this scene, his face was full of anger.

Although he pacified the world and unified the six kingdoms, the national power of the Qin Dynasty was not strong at this time, and many ordinary people could not get enough to eat!

In the event of a natural or man-made disaster, I don't know how many people will starve to death!

Even if he is the first emperor, he can only eat more than a dozen bowls of side dishes, and this is because he is the first emperor, but the woman in the picture, who is only the queen mother, is so extravagant!

Such extravagance!

Even he, the Great Qin Shihuang, was so angry that he wanted to kill someone at this moment!

In the Daming Palace, Zhu Di also had a murderous look on his face. Zhu Yuanzhang had experienced wars and chaos, and it was widely spread among the people that he started with a broken bowl. He, the emperor of the Zhu family, had the most say in the matter of starvation!

Even when he became the emperor, Zhu Yuanzhang was very frugal!

This even became the ancestral motto of the Ming emperor, and so did Zhu Di!

But he didn't expect that even for a trip, he would have to bring fifty chefs with him?There are a hundred dishes for a meal!

Unheard, unseen!

How much does this cost!

One person needs 10,000+ apples a year!

"My grass!" Zhu Di's eyes were red!

This projection made his unknown flame soar, even more annoying than when he watched Song Huizong!

If this is his Empress Dowager of the Ming Dynasty, he will order now to have all her ancestors executed!

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, Liu Che, was also murderous, making countless court ladies and eunuchs kneel down, not daring to move.

Among the projection diving emperors, only Kangxi was stunned, and then he was so angry that he was 100% sure that this was his dynasty!

This Empress Dowager Cixi is his Empress Dowager of the Qing Dynasty!

boom!

Kangxi, who was reviewing the memorial, suddenly slapped the table with his palm, which frightened the minister Suo'etu and Suke Saha to kneel down immediately!

Kangxi said angrily, "I'm asking you, one hundred dishes per person, is this... enough to eat? Is her stomach made of gold? Is there countless silver in the treasury? Let her spend so much?"

Suddenly, Suo'etu, Sukesaha and others broke out in cold sweat. They didn't see the projection directly, but they could barely hear the sound. Even they couldn't imagine a meal of a hundred dishes!

But this is the Empress Dowager of the Qing Dynasty, and they dare not make random comments.

During the projection, the screen continued, and a toilet made of gold appeared immediately, and it was guarded by an eunuch!

"Hiss, the toilet that Jin Jin sits on???"

At this moment, countless emperors stared wide-eyed, and a meal of a hundred dishes was fine, and it might be a court custom, but this golden toilet left them speechless!

This extravagant style is probably the same for eating, drinking, housing and transportation!

Kangxi's face was already gloomy.

Compared with the life of Empress Dowager Cixi, what is the difference between Kangxi and a beggar?

In order to set an example and save a lot of expenses in the entire palace, he sometimes only eats two meals a day!

And one meal, one dish!

Even if it is an additional dish, it will not exceed four dishes!

The same person eats alone!

A hundred times!

In his palace, he can frankly say to the courtiers, "For 30 years, the palace carpet has not been changed!"

Every year, the palace expenses alone can save millions of taels of silver!

Right now, where does the money come from for the extravagance and waste of the Empress Dowager Cixi?

It must be the people, it must be the people!

Moreover, Kangxi knew very well that the more dishes there were, the higher the price would be for the imperial dining room and the head of housekeeping when they reported it, and the amount of corruption was by no means a small number!

"Pass the decree, let all the ministers of the third grade come to the Hall of Mental Cultivation!" Kangxi furiously issued the decree!

Suo'etu and Sukesaha looked at each other, and they both knew that the majesty in front of him was really angry.

Now it's time to rest, but Kangxi asked all the officials above the third rank to come up, obviously made a big decision!

Suo'etu bit the bullet and asked, "The emperor summoned the ministers late at night, what is the matter?"

In front of the dragon chair, Kangxi said with a gloomy face, "Discussing national policies, this kind of unhealthy trend, I must curb it from now on!"

"..."

It was another birthday banquet. At the banquet, I don't know how many courtiers there were, and the degree of extravagance and waste, even these previous courts were all scalp numb because of the existence of the emperor!

Precious dishes, a troupe of dozens or hundreds of people, and even jewelry are decorated with gold and pearls.

So extravagant!

Compared with Cixi's expenses, their expenses are just drizzle!

But after the previous extravagance and waste, they can barely bear it. After all, they have a certain ability to bear it, but they are still a little depressed in their hearts!

As people who love the people and know that the people are fundamental, they realize one thing in their hearts!

This kind of extravagance and waste, if it is a prosperous age and the treasury is full, then it will turn into a weak dynasty. After all, this kind of unhealthy trend is by no means the only one in this picture. Cixi, even if the other concubines are poor, how bad will they be?

With such an expense, how much would the whole palace cost?

Decay is a matter of time!

However, if the national strength is already weak, and there are strong enemies around, then the country's dynasty should also perish!

Immortality is hell!

Didn't Song Huizong's prodigal son also lead to his being captured alive?

"During the Kangxi period, Emperor Kangxi took the lead in thrift and curbed the unhealthy trends in the entire palace by himself. He had two meals a day, one meal, and one dish. Even if he encountered useful animal teeth when traveling, he had to pick them up. The palace carpet, 30 The year has never been discarded, the entire dynasty is very frugal, and the national strength is growing stronger day by day!"

In an instant, Kangxi in the Hall of Mental Cultivation sat up straight, with a look of disbelief in his eyes.

"He actually knows that I eat twice a day! He also knows that I have the habit of picking up useful things!" Kangxi was stunned.

Although, he also knew that everything about Wanchao's editing would be reviewed, and if it was fake, it would not be projected, but when he saw Cixi's extravagance and waste, he still had a small hope in his heart, and then told him , this is fake, fake!

How can it be so wasteful? !

Even Kangxi couldn't believe it!

But at this moment, he believed it!

This is real!

But at the same time, he is also very painful!

After him, what happened to the Qing Dynasty? How could this happen?

"The first few emperors of the Qing Dynasty, whether it was Emperor Yongzheng or Emperor Kangxi, were diligent and frugal all their lives, but the subsequent emperors were more wasteful than each other. When it came to the Empress Dowager Cixi, this extravagance reached the extreme!"

"The 60th birthday party cost more than six million taels of silver!!!!"

"What?" Kangxi gasped.

The whole person sat up straight, Suo'etu just wanted to speak, and told Kangxi not to look any more, not to get angry.

But Kangxi gritted his teeth and said word by word: "Don't talk, dare to speak out, I will kill you!"

In the huge Hall of Mental Cultivation, Kangxi was staring at the projection, only Gao Yang's sonorous and powerful voice was still resounding in the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

"At that time, surrounded by foreign enemies, the Qing Dynasty implemented a closed-door policy, which led to a weak national strength, but the 600 million taels of silver was just for a birthday party... Hehe... And when the Beiyang Navy was formed, in order to resist foreign enemies, this army also It only cost 700 million taels of silver!"

"Cixi, on her 60th birthday, she directly consumed a Beiyang Navy. Who can compare to the level of luxury?!"

Chapter 30 Measuring China's material resources and forming the country's favor

hum!

Kangxi's mind buzzed, and he froze.

A birthday party costing the money of a navy?

And it's against the backdrop of powerful enemies!

Kangxi's eyes were red, and a surge of anger rose from his chest and spread to his limbs, his whole body was shaking!
