c_t; After Emperor Guangxu dealt with the affairs of the Beijing Normal University Hall, he then put forward a proposal to prepare for the State Administration of Industry and Commerce, the General Administration of Minerals and the General Administration of Railways according to Kang Youwei's plan. （ ）

Now that the court is intimidated by the prestige of Emperor Guangxu, these people no longer dare to touch his moldy head for the time being, and when they saw Emperor Guangxu put forward three agendas, everyone was either silent or in favor of it, and passed Guangxu's agenda.

It's just that the agenda is passed, and it is a brain-wrenching thing for someone to preside over it, although Tan Si and others are outstanding, but they are too shallow in their qualifications, and they do not have any meritorious service, and it is obviously unrealistic to come up directly to accept such a position, not only the ministers do not agree, even if they get to the Empress Dowager Cixi, it is difficult to pass, in Kang Youwei's vision, the general office ministers of these three bureaus are the rank of Zheng Erpin, half a level higher than the governor, and they can be called important ministers.

In the end, Guangxu saw that it was difficult for the ministers to give a suitable suggestion, and Emperor Guangxu looked at Weng Tongxiao, as the emperor's teacher, on this issue, Weng Tonggong must be able to give a clear answer, otherwise, how to be a local teacher.

Weng Tongyi pondered for a moment and said: "Your Majesty, originally the minister had an idea, that is, Zhang Jian, the champion of the Jiawu Branch, but now Zhang Jian has gone to the United States to inspect business and purchase machinery, and he has not returned yet, so he can only give up temporarily." ( )”

Emperor Guangxu glared at Weng Tongyi angrily, and said, "Since you have gone overseas and not returned, don't talk about it, is there any other better idea." ”

Fine beads of sweat gradually appeared on Weng Tong's head, after all, these days Guangxu is for the new deal, but he is full of anger, if there is no good advice at this time, his status will undoubtedly decline sharply. Originally, Weng Tongyi wanted to be in charge of the three major general bureaus by himself, but although he supported the reform and reform of the law and the implementation of the new policy, it does not mean that he understands it. This is not an easy thing, and if it is not done well when the time comes, it will be troublesome, and this is the core component of the reform and reform, and once there is a mistake, it will be a big trouble.

Weng Tongyi glanced at Li Hongzhang next to him with his eyes, and suddenly had an idea. Xin said: "Li Hongzhang, you want to watch from the wall." Where is it so easy to stay out of the situation? I can't say that the old man is going to pull you into the water. ”

Weng Tongyi hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, looking at the Qing Dynasty and the opposition all over the world, there is no one who is proficient in foreign affairs than Li Zhongtang, I think it is most appropriate for Li Zhongtang to take the lead in this matter, in addition to Li Zhongtang, the Manchu Dynasty is civil and military, and the ministers really can't think of a better candidate." ”

Li Hongzhang shook his head helplessly. [ ] It seems impossible to completely stay out of the situation.

This is Emperor Guangxu has set his sights on the most influential foreign leader of the late Qing Dynasty.

Li Hongzhang took it up and said: "Your Majesty, in fact, there are talented people in the country, Tan Si and others, and when the minister was in Tianjin, he once met under the recommendation of Zhang Yi. It is indeed talented, according to the opinion of the minister, the three major general bureaus can be operated separately, and do not concentrate power in one person, otherwise one is easy to end up, and the other is difficult to fully cope with one person's energy; The minister thought that he could choose three capable ministers from the court to serve as the general ministers of the three major general offices. Tan Si and others can rush into it and serve as assistant ministers, so that they can not only be tempered and mature as soon as possible, but also avoid affecting the stability of the DPRK and China because of overstepping their qualifications. ”

Guangxu nodded. It seems that when it comes to foreign affairs and the New Deal, Li Hongzhang has more say and deeper insight, Lafayette's words are really right, but Li Hongzhang is like this, how can he stay out of the matter, and if he doesn't add some burden, I'm really sorry for him.

Guangxu said: "Since this is the case, then you can do it according to the will of Shaoquan Gong, but at the beginning of the establishment of the three major general bureaus, all affairs are new, and it is inevitable that there will be some problems, Shaoquan Gong, please use more thought about the three general bureaus, I will not give you the general office of the three major general offices, but they do have to accept your moderation for the time being." ”

Li Hongzhang saw that Emperor Guangxu had already said this, so he had to agree for the time being, but how much effort he would use for the three major general bureaus, and it would depend on the development of the situation in the future, the treacherous and cunning Li Hongzhang would not change because of Guangxu's attitude, otherwise, he would not have been at the peak of power for decades.

Emperor Guangxu continued: "As for the candidates for the general offices of the three major general offices, I also ask Li Zhongtang to recommend one or two. ”

Li Hongzhang pondered for a moment and said: "The minister of the State Administration for Industry and Commerce, the minister also belongs to Zhang Jian, this person has a deep insight into the way of industrial development, the emperor can wait for Zhang Jian's return, and then appoint, for the time being, he can act as an assistant minister, but Weichen is worried that Zhang Jianzhi will let Zhang Jian return; The Minister of the General Administration of Mines is more suitable for the head of the household department, Zhang Yinhuan; The Minister of Railways recommended Sheng Xuanhuai of the Shanghai Telegraph Administration to serve as Sheng Xuanhuai, who had been running foreign affairs for many years, and was quite proficient in telegraphs and railways, and could do the job. ”

Guangxu nodded and said: "Shaoquan Gong is reasonable, he can pass on the decree and appoint Zhang Jian as the general minister of the State Administration for Industry and Commerce, and Tan Si as the deputy minister to assist Zhang Jian in acting the affairs of the General Administration; Zhang Yinhuan was appointed as the Minister of the National Administration of Mines, and Lin Xu was appointed as the Deputy Minister; Wei Sheng Xuanhuai is the general director of the General Administration of Railways, and Yang Shenxiu is the deputy minister, and from now on, he will prepare for the preparatory affairs of the three major general administrations. ”

Guangxu then said: "Convey the decree to appoint Liang Qichao and Liu Guangdi as the directors of the Ministry of Rites, to focus on the reform of the imperial examination, and to promote the reform of the imperial examination system and the official selection and promotion system in the Qing Dynasty......"

Guangxu's will came out of his mouth one after another, and it seemed that he had really put a lot of effort into it, and the eunuch holding the pen on the side brushed a little bit, and he was busy until it was almost noon, and he didn't stop.

Guangxu said: "Okay, let's get here today, and we'll discuss other things later, let's disperse first." ”

Guangxu dispersed, and all the civil and military officials dispersed.

Guangxu returned to the palace, and then summoned Kang Youwei and Tan Si and the like, and waited until everyone entered the palace.

Guangxu recounted the things to everyone, and Kang Youwei and others were excited at the same time, but there was also a trace of worry.

Kang Youwei said: "Your Majesty, now that the new deal has just begun, it has encountered such great resistance, and the collision in the future will be more intense, and even more powerful ministers and important ministers will be involved. ”

Emperor Guangxu snorted coldly: "What? Isn't this world my world anymore? Does anyone dare to follow Song Taizu Chen Qiao's mutiny? (To be continued.) If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendation and monthly passes, and your support is my biggest motivation. )
