Chapter 337: Peace of mind

Lingping yawned.
Then he stood up and made himself a cup of tea.
The fragrant tea entered his throat, and he was refreshed.
Looking at the time, it was four o'clock in the afternoon.
He turned on the TV at random, while watching the news, while leaning on the chair, reading the micro-book.
Today, the biggest news and breaking point is that the Donglai Autonomous Region has begun to announce the results of the college entrance examination.
Donglai Autonomous Region is an enclave of the Federal Empire.
Speaking of, this enclave has a lot to do with the legendary Sun family.
I think back then, after the Hundred Years' War, Qin Lu entered an era of great change.
The emperor of France took the lead and initiated the modernization of Qin Lu.
As a result, it was targeted by the entire world, except for the Federation Empire, enemies of the world!
However, the Federal Empire hated foreign wars after the Hundred Years' War, and at best can only provide moral and resource support.
Therefore, the emperor of France had to find the Sun family, who was known as the world's richest man at that time, to help mediate.
This mediation sold a piece of land in the Kingdom of Flange.
This piece of land is very small, located in the Red Sea between Kunlun Prefecture and Qinlu.
It is an island of less than 30,000 square kilometers.
At that time, the price was five million federal Chinese yuan, equivalent to five hundred thousand taels of gold.
This is a friendly price!
However, the Sun family took this piece of land and it was of no use, so it was used as a gift and presented to the then Emperor Dezong.
Emperor Dezong took a look...
I remembered Emperor Gaozong’s legacy: Don’t take evil for small things, and don’t take good for small things. Colonial aggression, interference... are all unjust acts... If my descendants are one of them, they are not my descendants!
So he refused decisively, and sent envoys and cabinet representatives to go to Donglai together, preparing to give Donglai Island independence and freedom.
but……
The Federation 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 groups of local people.
I heard that the emperor actually ignored them and wanted to give them independence.
Immediately scatter and roll all over the floor, crying and grabbing the ground.
Even more tragic is that the Federal Empire thought that this would be a good publicity explosion, so it sent a large group of reporters to accompany the delegation.
then……
Under countless flashing lights, photos of Donglai people crying and fighting for the earth were published in various local newspapers in turn.
In particular, in one of the photos, a certain chief of Donglai Island did not know where he found the iron voucher given to them by the former emperor.
Checking the history books again, it seems that Zheng He once sent someone here?
Moreover, the descendants of the crew may have settled here.
According to the examples of the Southern and Northern Zhou Dynasties, it is possible to invoke the relevant content of Article 12 of the Constitution.
The problem is, even if there is a lot of evidence.
However, the people of Dongnae Island are completely different from the federal mainland in terms of skin color, culture and customs.
It cannot constitute Article 12 of the Constitution, the three necessary conditions for joining the Empire.
then……
The imperial cabinet was in chaos.
The Donglai issue triggered the first constitutional crisis.
In the end, the matter had to be submitted to Dali Temple for trial.
The nine guardians of Dali Temple took on the first formal interpretation of the Constitution.
After several years of trial and negotiation, the Dali Temple's guardian finally rejected the Donglai Kingdom's request to join the Federal Empire with a five-to-four ratio.
The reason is: Although Dongnae Island has a long-standing relationship with the empire, and there is evidence that the ancestors of the empire once settled here... But in accordance with the principles of the constitution and the multiple interpretations of Taizu, Taizong and Gaozong, Donglai It does not constitute a necessary condition for joining the empire... But considering the feelings of the people of Donglai and related history... It is recommended that the central legislation allows Donglai to participate in the cooperation of the empire family in some form...
Thus, Donglai Autonomous Prefecture was born.
This is a dominion that will never be marked as an imperial territory on the territory, but is actually indistinguishable from an imperial territory.
Everything here is in accordance with the imperial system.
The local people enjoy all the rights of the imperial people except the right to vote and the right to be elected.
At the same time, the central government has allocated funds to take care of it every year, in the name of a ‘special budget’.
Although the money is very small, it is several million every year.
But Donglai is 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 have directly led a life equivalent to that of the mainland.
Advanced and complete infrastructure...
Highly developed network...
There are also cheap grains, medicines, machinery...
Naturally, there is the same level of education.
Donglai has a population of hundreds of thousands, but in the past 100 years, it has sent more than a dozen bachelors to the Empire.
Donglai people are quite outstanding in exams.
Thousands of Donglai people come to the local area to study at universities every year!
This time is no exception.
According to the published results, the admission rate of more than 3,000 candidates in the Donglai examination area is close to 60%.
Among them, there are more than two hundred people, and the scores have reached the standards of key universities!
Lingping looked at the photos on the micro-book, and was deeply moved.
"Actually, I might also be one of the candidates for Donglai..."
The Federal Empire has two support points in Kunlun State.
One is Ma Lin and the other is Donglai.
Ma Lin Naval Base and Donglai Air Force Base are the two helping hands extended by the Empire to Kunlun Prefecture.
Tens of millions of tons of aid materials enter Kunlun Prefecture through these two places each year.
Most of them are food and medicine.
Most of the children of foreign aid workers go to school in Donglai.
It is relatively safe and has developed facilities that are not inferior to the local area.
Therefore, Ling Ping'an was actually packed and saluted back then, ready to go to Donglai to study.
As a result, his parents died unexpectedly.
This matter was put on hold.
Nowadays, looking at the pictures of the beautiful Donglai Island on the micro-book, I am full of emotion.
Closing the phone, he leaned back in the chair.
"Since Donglai's results have been announced..."
"So soon, the results of the Western Song Dynasty and the local area will be announced one after another..."
"I don't know, can Jiangcheng City attack Baoan this year?"
Thinking of Baoan people's ridicule of Jiangcheng in the past ten years, Ling Ping'an has some expectations.
For the people of the Federal Empire, poor performance is really a topic that is easier to be mocked than poor economics.
after all……
Since ancient times, the status of education has been higher than that of economy!
Ancient officials, the power of education surpasses everything!
Therefore, although Jiangcheng’s economy has always been better than Bao’an, but its performance is not as good as Bao’an, there is really no way.
On the forum, the Baoan people said: We are the scholars who cultivate and study, and we will not associate with the Tongshishi people!
When he speaks, it is Old Zuan!
But I can't refute it.
Especially last year, Baoan No. 1 Middle School abruptly won a national champion!
That is really...
Dimensionality reduction blow!
"Calculating the time, according to the rules of previous years, the results of Guangnan District, it is estimated that you can check the day after tomorrow..."
"I hope not to be suppressed by Baoan people again!"
Baoan and Jiangcheng are enemies from ancient times to the present.
For every Jiangcheng person, there is a popular online phrase that can bluntly describe anyone who can lose, but Baoan can't!
Thinking of this, Lingping thought of something that caused him a headache.
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" and "I don't want to fall in love too early".
It’s also hard to shirk things like "I don’t have time," "I’m busy."
After all, age is here.
People won't recognize it if you say it breaks the sky.
The royal commissioners are also very patient guys.
Lingping has seen an example on the Internet. The imperial poverty alleviation commissioner, in order to help a poverty-stricken village in the northwest, abandoned the comfortable life of the imperial capital and ran to the plateau village to eat and live with the people.
Forcibly, a remote village ~EbookFREE.me~ has been turned into a modern village.
For this reason, he stayed from thirty to forty-five years old!
Fifteen years!
From a mature official to a black-faced man!
This is a very moving story.
But if the spirit comes to face such a person in peace, he knows that he has no chance of winning.
"But I really don't want to go..."
He lamented.
What is good for the emperor?
There are high-rise buildings everywhere, and luxury cars and treasure houses everywhere.
There is nothing delicious, and nothing interesting.
Think about it all bad luck!
