President Meng sweated, and for the first time, it was as if he had never known Jie Gege. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info

Jiegege was indeed born in the court and had been by the Empress Dowager Cixi's side for a long time.

But this is the first princess in the world at this time, she sees it very thoroughly, this political understanding ability, President Meng asked himself, if he was not the one who came through time, he would not have the opportunity to see Jiegege at all, let alone speak.

"Have you thought about it, this world is very big, in addition to the imperial court and my country, there are also foreigners, China needs to become rich and strong as soon as possible, at least to be able to protect itself! You have to try to let them know that I have no ambitions, I just want to make money in business, and besides, I can buy Qiongzhou and Keelung at a high price! I will continue to donate 2 million taels to the imperial court every year as the cost of building the Summer Palace, and when the construction of the Summer Palace is completed, this money will still only be more, not less, is this not enough sincerity? Isn't this enough to give the Qing court face? Which foreign war did the Qing court have such a good ending? When was it not beaten and kneeling, cutting the land for compensation, and asking for peace with the servile kneeling? President Moe's eyes burned, and he suddenly grasped the center of the problem.

This world is very big, and it is not composed of two political bodies, the Qing court and the Chinese state, and China is still too weak in front of the world.

"You! You've gone too far! Jie Gege stood up angrily, "You say that, you still don't take the court into account!" Hmph, I don't want to talk to you anymore. You remember, now the Great Qing Kingdom is above you, and your soldiers and horses can fight again, and the Beijing-Tianjin region has gathered 50,000 troops! ”

President Meng smiled: "Don't say 50,000, if you don't be reasonable, it's 500,000, 5 million, and I don't care about Xuan Yuemeng!" ”

"You!" Jiegege was so angry that President Meng couldn't speak, not only President Meng, but today's Jiegege also seems to have never known President Meng.

Jiegege didn't expect President Meng to be like this, the psychological construction in the past all collapsed, Jiegege only knew that Xuan Yuemeng was a prodigy, ambitious, ambitious, and saw very far, and saw problems very accurately, but he didn't expect Xuan Yuemeng to be so ambitious, and he was so rebellious.

Of course, President Meng knew that the Qing court must be speeding up the build-up of troops, but he did not think about attacking Beijing, with the strength of the Chinese army, a field brigade plus an artillery regiment, to hold the concession, it is not a big problem.

Gege glared at President Meng with beautiful eyes, walked out of the room quickly, saw Princess Katrina Kafu outside the door, quickly gave a salute, and left.

Princess Katrina Kaaf hurried in, "Why are you arguing again?" President? ”

President Meng sighed and said: "The Qing court is arrogant and has been infected to Jiegege, such a court, it can't be solved if you don't fight, I regret coming to this trip a little." ”

"So what should I do now, the president is here, and the Chinese army can't attack it? In that case, they will definitely hold the president hostage. Princess Katrina Kaf asked worriedly.

President Meng raised his hand, "Don't be impatient, wait with peace of mind!" ”

Princess Katrina Kave's eyes turned red, "But if it takes a long time, if the British want to go to war, and President Meng is detained here, the Chinese army will naturally not be able to go, and when the time comes, our back road will be cut off from the sea, will everyone die in Tianjin?" ”

President Meng is also worried about this problem, this gamble is really too difficult for President Meng, he didn't speak.

If President Meng didn't have an industry in his hands, he would never have made so many rights and wrongs come out, and he would not be happy to fight little by little? But no, there is no supply, and if you fight, you have to watch your ammunition be reduced and there is nowhere to replenish.

The key is that President Meng doesn't want to follow the rules and develop slowly, President Meng is not a grandson's personality, within half a year, there will be no problem with bullet supply, this, President Meng can be sure, but now after the winter, if you can't spend money next year, in the face of the monopoly of the Qing court, don't talk about the development of industry, that is, the purchase of materials, the purchase of food will become a problem, so President Meng can't sit and wait stupidly.

The North Korean market is not enough to support the food of more than 2 million people!

Prince Gong and Li Hongzhang finally summoned President Meng again.

Prince Gong smiled and said, "The deadline for the last day, President Meng, you must promise to return the seized British supplies and warships, release the captured British soldiers, release the captured British merchants and embassy staff, and release the British Consul General Witoma and Commander Burleigh. It was announced that the Chinese army was disbanded, and the Qing court took over Danzhou and recovered the power of Danzhou lease. ”

President Meng laughed, "Yixun, you have been leading the Prime Minister's Yamen's diplomacy for so many years, and you have this ability?" It was an eye-opener! ”

"You!" Prince Gong Yixun has always been personable, but now he is about to be forced to be anxious, and stands up, "Believe it or not, I'll kill you now?" ”

Li Hongzhang saw Xuan Yuemeng standing up, knowing that Xuan Yuemeng was a personality that would rather bend, and hurriedly said: "Alas, it's easy to discuss, Lord Wang, Yuemeng, don't be angry, it's useless to get angry." ”

Xuan Yuemeng and Prince Gong both sat down.

Li Hongzhang laughed: "The weather is cold and the fire is heavy, Yue Meng, don't talk about the previous things, if you still feel that you are a child of the Qing Dynasty, you should do what Prince Gong said, you don't want to make Jie Gege sad, right?" Don't forget, you and Jie Gege have a marriage contract, Yue Meng, the old man has always been very optimistic about you, this, you know better than anyone else, the old man tried his life to recommend you to the court, otherwise, can you know Jie Gege, can you have today? Even if you are an idle rich man for the rest of your life, your achievements are higher than that of the old man, why do you want to go toe-to-toe with the Qing Dynasty? ”

Li Hongzhang's words can be regarded as coming from the bottom of his heart, Li Hongzhang is indeed much higher than Yixun's level, so emotionally peeled off, peeled off from President Meng's family history, it really makes President Meng difficult to speak.

President Meng sighed and glanced at Jiegege, "Lord Zhongtang, in my heart, I treat you as a grandfather, a grandfather, your kindness, I Xuan Yuemeng dare not forget, but I have developed to this day, isn't it all my personal operation?" A bunch of brothers behind my ass are eating with me. ”

President Meng is naturally not a fledgling, he has been in the high-level for two years, where is the original little sling, although these words are a little heavier, but they are also reasonable, emotional and reasonable, just for Li Hongzhang's words just now.

Li Hongzhang nodded, satisfied with Xuan Yuemeng's statement, and looked at Prince Gong Yixun.

Prince Gong was furious: "Xuan Yuemeng, you have to figure out first, this is in the Yamen of the Governor of Zhili!" If you don't do what I just said, the soldiers and horses of the imperial court can behead you all over the house within three days, and your little bandit soldier has never seen the true strength of my Qing Dynasty. ”

President Moe glared angrily, and Princess Katrina Kafu stood beside President Moe.

Li Hongzhang hurriedly said: "Lord Wang, don't get angry, in this way, give Yuemeng two more days to think about it." That's it for today, right? ”

Xuan Yuemeng wanted to refuse on the spot, his temper couldn't help it, but seeing that Jiegege's eyes were red, President Meng still couldn't help it, even if he didn't agree, he couldn't bear not to agree now.

Jie Gege lowered his head and went out with Li Hongzhang and Prince Gong Yixun, while Zhilin, Jing Duo, Xuan Hongbo and others seemed to be watching a good show.

President Meng suddenly laughed, "Please stay, I will now promise to return the seized British supplies and warships, release the captured British soldiers, release the captured British merchants and embassy staff, and release the British Consul General Wittoma and Commander Burleigh." It was announced that the Chinese army was disbanded, and the Qing court took over Danzhou and recovered the power of Danzhou lease. ”

"What?" Prince Gong thought he was old and had a problem with his ears.

Li Hongzhang squinted his eyes and looked at Xuan Yuemeng, his slightly chubby face was full of disbelief, Li Hongzhang ate more salt than President Meng, and he was also shrewd.

"What? Don't believe me? What I Xuan Yuemeng said, that is, gold falls to the ground, every word can smash a big hole, Lord Li Zhongtang is right, whether it is for Lord Zhongtang or for Jiegege, I should give up everything now! I'll go and say to my men now! I can't let my beloved woman be wronged! President Meng walked to Jiegege's side and took Jiegege's hand.

Jiegege couldn't believe it, and looked at Xuan Yuemeng in a daze, I really don't know how this child was reincarnated? This idea changed too quickly, didn't it?

Li Hongzhang didn't speak, and Prince Gong was overjoyed, "Okay! Okay, that's right, it's naturally good to be able to do this, Lord Li Zhongtang, you have a lot of credit this time. ”

Li Hongzhang bowed his head and thanked him, "Don't dare, it's all the prince who presides over the overall situation, and Li Hongzhang is just a foil." ”

Li Hongzhang looked at Xuan Yuemeng again, he didn't know what tricks Xuan Yuemeng was doing, anyway, Li Hongzhang didn't believe it, "Yuemeng, will you sign the seal now?" ”

President Meng smiled, "Of course, sign the seal now!" From now on, there will be no more Huaguo, sign immediately, take effect immediately, I have only one request, Jiegege will go back to Danzhou with me to complete the marriage, and after my wedding, I will dissolve Huaguo, and then go back to Beijing with Jiegege, the Queen Mother wants to kill or chop, I don't frown. ”

Li Hongzhang believed most of it, and in this era, he kept his promises, not to mention signing the seal, but if Xuan Yuemeng wanted to go back to China, he would not feel at ease, after all, Xuan Yuemeng rebelled, and it was not the first time, Li Hongzhang looked at Prince Gong again.

Prince Gong also nodded, "Xuan Yuemeng, how can we believe you?" ”

President Meng smiled slightly, "I've done my best to be sincere, if you don't believe it, it's none of my business." ”

Prince Gong Yixun and Li Hongzhang groaned, they didn't know what to do, they had actually moved the killing machine a long time ago, as long as the news came from the British side, they really wanted to fight with Huaguo, they would immediately take action, cooperate with the British fleet, the British attacked Danzhou Port and Tianjin Port from the sea, and the Qing army completely defeated this elite Chinese army from Tianjin.

Now Xuan Yuemeng really agreed to their request, which is something they didn't plan.

Things changed so suddenly. (To be continued.) )
