V. Treaty of Beijing (IV)

"We in China have never been stingy with the countries that we China can show a friendly attitude," Prince Gong said gently, "It is precisely because of the help of the American Minister, Mr. Hua Ruohan," the American Minister nodded sharply on the side to express his agreement with the behavior of the wealthy people in the Far East, "under mediation, your country and others can sit down and discuss it well, instead of continuing to solve the problem by military means," Prince Gong seems to have forgotten the Americans' "Treaty of Tientsin" last year When the signing was signed, the matter of jumping up and down to fan the flames was carried out back and forth, and the shamelessness of the politician was vividly expressed between the two, "So we want to express our gratitude, and thank you in this way, your country and others don't need to mind too much." ”

Ferrero shouted again, Gong Cheng sneered and translated, exaggerating Ferrero's words, Prince Gong endured his anger, at this time, he must not be mad, he must not mess up this matter because of the battle of will, Prince Gong glanced at Gong Cheng angrily, and nodded at Ferrero, "I will fully consider what Mr. Minister said, I want to remind your country to wait a little, that is, we in the Qing Dynasty and any sovereign country to sign any treaty, there is no need to notify or let a certain country agree, this is our own business, the purchase clause of muskets and artillery in the memorandum, In addition to sending ambassadors to each other, there should be more economic and military exchanges between our two countries," the minister of the Kingdom of Gong was still more angry than covetous, so he clapped his hands, Gui Liang took out another piece of Chen from his sleeve, and said something thrilling......

The emperor summoned the ministers in the Yanbo Zhishuang Palace, and listened to the opinions of the ministers of the kings of the military aircraft on the excerpts of Prince Gong, the emperor yawned, bored and listened to everyone arguing and shouting, Wen Xiang, who had always been calm, got Prince Gong's secret letter, and also rolled up his sleeves and personally went out to fight with Su Shun and others.

Su Shun's almost roaring voice echoed in the empty hall, "The minister is stationed in Beijing, absolutely not, not to mention that foreigners enter Beijing, not to mention disturbing Gyeonggi, just saying that the minister is envoys, interfering in our internal affairs, and pointing fingers, isn't it similar to the meaning of supervising the country?" In this way, where is the Great Qing Dynasty placed, and where is Long Live located? Never! ”

Wen Xiang, who waited for King Gong's secret letter, was confident, and just sneered slightly, "Lord Sushun, King Gong's excerpt is clearly stated, when he negotiates and signs terms with foreigners in the future, the duties of the minister will be listed on it, and he must not take a step beyond Lei Chi, the world has changed, the minister is not the intention of supervising the country, and the excerpt on King Gong is clearly written, it is just like a post station, communicating with the monarchs of the two countries, not to mention," Wen Xiang glanced at him with disdain, "It is rare for those of us to see foreigners, But the people of Sijiu City have been accustomed to seeing foreigners these days, and they don't know how many people have been on the streets. ”

The emperor smiled, although he had not seen it with his own eyes, but the excerpts from Beijing were seen a lot, and he thought about the face of foreign devils in Beijing, the emperor thought about it, and even everyone was fighting for something without listening to it in his ears, and he came out of his senses, and heard Yang Qingxi on the side coughing slightly, the emperor came back to his senses, only to see that everyone was himself, the emperor was a little embarrassed, but his heart had already set the tone, "The winter solstice is coming, for the sake of worshipping the ancestors, everything can be put down, if you are worried about me, Then it is just that the foreign minister will not be seen, what is it, just ask the sixth to see it, okay, let's do it, this time we have a big victory, one is to rely on the blessing of the ancestors, and the other is to rely on the soldiers to use their lives, the empress has a saying, "Su Shun's eyebrows wrinkled, "Those indemnity silver rationed to foreigners, it is better to pay the soldiers, Su Shun," the emperor called Su Shun, Su Shun leaned down to obey the order, "The reward that should be given cannot be left ungiven, and the foreigners must be so many Chinese," the emperor was full of spirit, after the battle of Yongtong Bridge, The emperor completely began to neglect the government, because he felt that his merits did not dare to stand side by side with Emperor Kangqian, but far more than his father Emperor Daoguang, in the future in the Taimiao, his position is not bad, the world is peaceful, how can you not enjoy it to the fullest, "Pass the order, as soon as you take care of the situation and let the old six do it casually, Su Shun, you stare more, you have to do it properly, other side matters, don't care, these foreigners are afraid of us, the Celestial Empire always has to give some sweetness to appease the general, if the foreigners are obedient and courteous, What's the point of a few treaty ports, tariff reductions and exemptions are also meaningless," the emperor became the shopkeeper, "Let's disperse, the military aircraft and the Ministry of Rites are discussing the New Year in Rehe, thinking about how to make this New Year more lively, and let the sixth man toss those foreigners in the affairs of the capital, and disperse." ”

Su Shun and Jiao Youying and others looked at each other, seeing that the emperor didn't want to continue talking, they had to bow down, and then withdrew from the Qinzheng Palace. (To be continued.)
