The fierce fighting in Egypt did not affect the Japanese 'recruitment', and Toyo Security Company has made a new appearance. This security company, led by the shogunate and invested by local daimyos, was the largest security company in Asia after the Black Ice Ocean Security Company.

Its subordinate 'employees' are known for their loyalty, perseverance, bravery, and 'steadfast' character of preferring to die if they do not complete their tasks.

Of course, at this time, not many people in China, including the Japanese media, are paying attention to the big news of "Toyo Security Company". What they focus on is more of the internal shock of Chen Han!

The Suez Canal project was officially made public.

God! It's a super big event!

The Suez Canal construction bonds issued by the bank were flooded in just one day, and these Chen Han magnates and big businessmen who had already received the news in advance bought a full 230 million.

After that, the Suez Canal project shocked the whole of China.

Everyone who has seen a map of the world knows the enormous meaning of the Suez Canal after its opening in words. It can shorten the freight route between the east and the west by tens of thousands of miles at once, especially the rough Cape of Good Hope, which is a ghost gate, and the Suez Canal can completely skim it.

The Japanese have compared the construction of this canal to the construction of the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal more than 1,000 years ago.

The latter has completely connected China's north and south, while the former has halved the distance between east and west.

Of course, the impact of this matter is greater than that of the small Toyo Security Company.

What's more, the major events that have broken out in China in the recent period are not only this, but also a bigger and more important thing.

It is said that this matter is related to the next heir of the Chen Han Empire!

Today's Emperor Chen is almost fifty years old. Although the Spring and Autumn Period is in full bloom, there is no tired look at all, but for an emperor, fifty years old is really about to face the problem of heirs seriously.

It's just that Chen Ming's 'exam' method in the 'rumors' is a bit wrong.

What is a Dual Constitutional Monarchy? What is a parliamentary constitutional monarchy? Countless Chinese and Japanese have said that they do not understand!

Yanjing, Xiaotangshan.

"Don't worry about it. In today's world, the East is prosperous, and the Westerners are also prosperous, and I want to subdue the Westerners, at least not behind the Westerners, and I should learn from the power of the West's personality and machinery. Chen Cong and Yue Wenhai are well aware of the shortcomings of Confucianism, focusing too much on theory, but less on practice and less on material. and even despise and suppress 'substance'.

"Today, I have a long-term vision, and in my early years, I looked at the world and knew the way of Western party politics. However, he doesn't read much and lacks literary brilliance, but because of this, he is not dragged down by the shackles of old customs, and his vision is far beyond the reach of ordinary people. Over the years, he has been committed to introducing Western laws into China and cooperating with politics. "So it's not uncommon for Nanjing to have a moth. What is strange is that these moths were released by the emperor himself, or is it that some person who is looking for death is impatient?

Chen Cong is the second uncle of the current emperor, since he went into the wilderness, the 'level' has not moved, it is still very high, and his life is very comfortable. He was not beaten into the dust when he was full of ambition, nor was he depressed and unable to stretch his will, and the days of 'retreat' were naturally not a good one. He really has no distractions, and he has no intention of cheering up again, so he retreats to his homeland, and that little day will be comfortable.

Although when the Advisory Bureau was just launched, he also had the heart to show his strength again, but the resistance was too great, and the emperor did not see support, Chen Cong immediately shrank his head, and in the end he still enjoyed his old age in peace.

Chen Cong's two sons are now in extraordinary status, and the empire's territory in the Americas is about to enter South America, and the West Indies are not far away. Although the garrison drew the 'line' to the south in Panama and the northern border line in Colombia, the final area after the war would never have been like this.

At the negotiation table, Chen Han's Ministry of Foreign Affairs will definitely slaughter the duck with a big stab. The biggest possibility is to cut a knife in Colombia, or to use Spain to turn around and put pressure on the French, Louisiana is like a peerless treasure, hanging Chen Ming's appetite all the time.

The expansion of the empire in the Americas was very stable and solid, step by step, step by step towards the ultimate goal. And now, no one in the Americas can stand up to the Empire. Although the annexation of Mexico and the Isthmus of Central America would have caused the empire to face the national problem of millions of Mexicans and millions of Indians, the empire would not be choked.

Therefore, not only Chen Cong saw the hope of sealing the country, but he believed that the entire elite class saw the hope of sealing the country.

This 'promise' has become incomparable, and it has become 'lifetime'. The emperor is not fooling them with the 'overseas feudalism', that is a real promise, and it will soon be able to turn from illusion into reality.

Chen Cong knew Western politics very well, so he felt that the good days of the French would soon come to an end, and when the British enlisted Austria, Prussia, and Russia to besiege France, it would be the end of the French Revolution.

And when the mainland of France has suffered heavy losses, is Louisiana still far from the day of Chen Han's bowl?

At this time, of course, Chen Cong didn't know how 'bt' Napoleon was in the original time and space, so he had no confidence in France at all. The entire Chen and Han dynasties, but anyone who knows something about Europe, is not optimistic about the future of France.

They have too many opponents and too strong.

- This matter is not mixed with the question of the emperor's heir to the throne. What is mixed together is the 'difference' and 'combination' of the political system of the French and the great powers of the whole of Europe.

More than a hundred years ago, the British cut off the head of a king. More than 100 years of history show that Britain has really grown stronger in the process.

Now France has also cut off the head of a king, and before that, France was a symbol of the power of European monarchy. But now there is no king in the country. It's literally jumping from one extreme to the other.

So is it better to have a constitutional monarchy with a parliamentary system, or is it better to have a purely parliamentary system? Or is it better to be a real monarchy?

Look at how many of their own heads the French cut off after cutting off the king's head?

This kind of problem is still too big a 'shock' for China now, but it has indeed spread in Nanjing, in China, and in Japan.

This incident also made many high-level elites uneasy, and the chaos in France made them tremble and chill to watch. Before the French Revolution, there was also the Revolution of the British, the same with the heads of the people. Isn't this a 'change of dynasty'?

For the Chinese, this is a change of dynasty. And once the dynasty changes, the royal magnates are not as good as the fart.

The inner library was burned into splendid ash, and the heavenly street stepped on the bones of the minister. It's not a joke.

And looking at it this way, being a 'puppet' like the British royal family is not without any benefits. It's just that in Chinese cultural traditions, this benefit is much smaller than what the royal family and emperor lost.

Chen Cong didn't know if the emperor was pushing behind all this, so he had a vague feeling that the current emperor was not a worry-free person.

Chen Ming hasn't mentioned much about the 'prince' over the years, outsiders think it's his taboo, Emperor Chen is not very old, where does he need the prince to make trouble for himself when he is in the prime of life?

But in fact, Chen Hui knew that Chen Ming was secretly observing every son who was charging towards the throne.

And what surprised Chen Cong was that Chen Ming had arranged many works by Western Enlightenment thinkers for his son over the years, and the masterpieces of Montesquieu, Voltaire and others had never been broken.

From this point of view, there is indeed something abnormal in the mind of the current emperor.

This matter is almost an open secret at the top of Chen Han.

There is also Adam Smith, who has been dead for ten years, and his "The Wealth of Nations" is not only arranged for Chen Ming to be read by his sons, but also by his ministers, and by the higher education crowd represented by college students. It can be regarded as one of the most popular Western books in China in recent years.

Although Chen Han's 'industrial development' and commercial development were not entirely in accordance with the invisible force mentioned in The Wealth of Nations, many things were forcefully implemented by Chen Ming in the form of edicts. However, as long as they are in politics, those who dominate one side have more or less experienced the power of the 'invisible hand' on the issue of economic development.

These things can only be said to be Chen Ming expanding the vision of his son and ministers before, but now that he tastes it, he feels a little awkward.

Chen Ming has never publicly stated that he wants to establish a constitution, and yes, the exchanges between the East and the West over the years have made the meaning of the new word 'constitution' very clear. Chen Ming has never publicly said that he wants to lead the Chen Han royal family to the road of 'Hypocrisy'. Chen Cong couldn't guess what Chen Ming thought.

However, Emperor Chen vigorously developed industry and commerce on the one hand, and on the other hand, he was vigilant against industry and commerce. Chen Cong can still see clearly at this point.

But outsiders can't see it clearly, isn't Chen Ming himself clear? It's just that these years of imperial career have made him understand that his original idea was a little simple, too simplistic, too naïve.

No one in this world wants to give up the right to hold the grip in their hands, and it is too unrealistic to let the Chinese, who have supreme imperial power for 2,000 years, step into the bourgeois constitutional monarchy. However, the dual constitutional monarchy is quite loving, the compromise between the imperial power and the bourgeoisie, although the royal family is also hollowed out to a certain extent, but in the end it still has a certain amount of real power, this system is still essentially a political framework cooked by capital, isn't it?

Is it okay to think of 'duality' as a transition?

First 'dualism', then a parliamentary constitutional monarchy? Is this okay?

Or is it okay to keep going on like this?

There is a buffer period of several decades, and there is an accumulation of two or three generations, and then China's political arena and public opinion will definitely be completely different from what it is now.

No matter how two-minded the dualism is, it is stronger than the monarchy.

Chen Cong, who stayed at home, is really decoupled from politics now, especially after his comeback was blocked in the matter of the Senior Minister's Yuan, Chen Cong is really a 'hermit'. However, the 'hermit' is a hermit, and he doesn't know much about the specific matters of politics, and Chen Cong is not completely without communication with the outside world.

Chen Cong has no contact with many of his younger brothers at the beginning, and the status and knowledge of the latter cannot reach the point of communicating with Chen Cong, except Yue Wenhai, Shen Guozhen, Liu Dezhao, Zheng Wen, Xiao Lou, and Wang Huizu, who are roughly equivalent to their status, and they are all important ministers of the imperial court, or close relationships, and they can communicate together.

This time, the 'rumors' in Nanjing City can really shake people's hearts, and the most 'terrifying' thing is that not long after these 'rumors' broke out, the emperor issued a holy edict, asking the cabinet to discuss how to expand the power of the advisory bureau without causing a big shock.

It can be said that one stone stirs up a thousand waves.

At this time, the power is still delegated to the Advisory Bureau, is this to change the Advisory Bureau into the Congress?

Several files are piled up together, which is a bit sensitive!
