Chapter 194: Assemblies and Protests
The main reason for the Ming Dynasty's going to ancient official positions was the increase in foreign immigrants, and the principle of mixing ancient and modern in the Ming Kingdom, not to mention foreign immigrants, many official positions were not clear even if they were Chinese immigrants. It is precisely because of the increase in overseas immigration that all the names of modern official positions have been changed to the actual situation of the present.
The total number of existing citizens in Daming has reached 180,000, of which Chinese immigrants are the most, reaching 144,000, accounting for 80% of the total number, the number of Chinese immigrants from Taiwan, Hong Kong, Singapore and Malaysia has reached 18,000, the number of Japanese immigrants and South Korean immigrants has reached 3,600, and the number of immigrants from Europe, Russia, North America, Australia, South America and other immigrants has reached 14,400.
Especially in Malaysia, due to the rejection of the local Malays to the Chinese, as well as religious incompatibility, many Chinese choose to immigrate to the Ming Kingdom, as of September this year, there have been 1,254 Malaysian immigrants.
But no one expected that the news of official reform would have an explosive impact in the Ming Kingdom.
The day after the official restructuring bill was broadcast on television, 10,000 teachers and students from Mingguo Dongdu University organized a protest, and they and more than 6,000 students from Mingguo Xiuwenguan College braved the heavy rain to set out from Dongdu University to Central Park and outside the gate of Menxia Provincial Assembly Hall and Ziwei Pond in Zhongshu Province to protest, and then walked to Chang'an City and went to Xingqing Palace along Suzaku Street to petition.
These students are all students who applied to join the Ming Nationals that year, and as Ming Nationals, although they are not old enough to bear political responsibilities, their political heart is their ultimate pursuit.
They called for streamlining government affairs. But don't de-colonize the slogans.
Banners and flags are held alof, with the words "Chinese or traditional" painted in black and white, and erased with a red X. It was believed that this move by the Ming Kingdom would westernize the world's only traditional country.
Police teams from the Dongdu Torture Department and surrounding county offices followed the whole process. Monitor developments and prevent people with ulterior motives from instigating students to carry out illegal activities or storm the Menxia Province, Zhongshu Province, and Xingqing Palace, the Imperial Palace.
As the situation became more and more serious, local residents and some elites from the Ming Kingdom, tycoons, senior technicians, white-collar workers, students, service industry workers, and farmers also began to participate in the sit-in protest in front of Xingqing Palace.
It happened to catch up with the heavy rain in the sky, and many people were drenched in the rain before they had time to put on raincoats.
Journalists from all over the world and mainstream media from all over the world came to cover and report on the incident, and the students unanimously demanded that Prime Minister Song Hee-mo revise the bill. Ask Menxia Province to reject the bill, and ask Emperor Zhu Wei to vote against.
Not only the Ming government, but even Zhu Wei was unexpected. At this time, the Ming government was confronted with mass mass rallies and opposition to the decree for the first time.
Nearly 20,000 people protested, more than 10% of the total population of the Ming Kingdom.
In China, there were also people who launched solidarity with the march of the Ming Kingdom, and the Qiandu Hanfu Comrades Organization launched activities. Two hundred thousand signatures were collected. To the e-mail to the Ming State Affairs Books. I would like to ask to hear the opinions of the descendants of the Chinese people.
The Zhengyan of Menxia Province reacted in a timely manner, they already knew that the Ming Kingdom would definitely embark on the road of democracy, and now it was the best opportunity to absorb public opinion, so Menxia Province rejected the decree to Zhongshu Province as soon as possible, ordered the bill to be amended, and retried it at a later date.
The prime minister and the emperor spoke on television for the first time, praising the students' political ideas. and the concept of caring for traditional culture, and then persuaded the students to leave. and promised that the bill had been rejected by the Ministry of Men for reconsideration.
The crowd of marchers gradually receded.
The Ministry of Books had no choice but to pay attention to it and began to revise the bill on the reform of the bureaucratic system overnight. The bill was revised overnight, with the participation of students and community representatives, and then published nationwide.
In addition to stipulating that the 18 departments of the Ming State should be streamlined and merged into 10, the new bill also determined that there was no change in the titles of 50 positions, including the Imperial Prime Minister, the Servant Lang of the Sect, the Six Books of Shangshu, the Six Ministers of the Minister, the Imperial Shi Dafu, the Imperial Shi Zhongcheng, and the Dali Siqing.
Only then did it pass the deliberation of the Ministry of Menxia. Although this turmoil was only a small turmoil in the political history of the Ming Kingdom, it deeply affected the democratic process of the Ming Kingdom.
The ministry has revised its decree, and the people are in the mood to watch television.
