Emperor Meiji sorted out his messy thoughts and asked his attendants to inform the Japanese senators to come to the palace for a meeting, and he wanted to reorient Japan. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

The Japanese Senators are the name given to a group of elders who began the Meiji Emperor's Restoration, and there are nine in total.

They were all veteran statesmen who followed Emperor Meiji and single-handedly created the glory of Japan's Meiji era, and were the supreme heads of government.

The enemy is the most hostile and the most dominant place is to learn from the enemy

Although the Constitution of the Empire of Japan does not explicitly stipulate about the senators, it is an extra-constitutional institution.

However, because of the outstanding contribution of these veteran statesmen to the rise of Japan, the Meiji Emperor granted these nine senators the right to directly intervene in Japan's political system and foreign military operations.

The nine veterans were Hirobumi Ito, Kiyotaka Kuroda, Aritomo Yamaguta, Masayoshi Matsukata, Shin Inoue, Saigo Shomichi, Oyama Iwa, Katsura Taro, and Saionji Konozo.

With the exception of Saionji Konozo, who came from a public family, the rest were from the Satsuma and Choshu regions, and were representatives of the feudal forces that emerged through their participation in the Meiji Restoration.

At present, among the nine patriarchs, Kuroda Kiyotaka and Saigo Norido have passed away, and there are still seven left.

Emperor Meiji looked at the seven Japanese veterans in front of him who had followed him in his expedition to the east and west, and he had a feeling that the past was like smoke and time was old.

However, he looked at the expectant eyes of these elders, and Emperor Meiji told himself, no matter how bad the world in front of me was, I would live with Japan, even if I was like an animal, and I would live tenaciously.

He took a deep breath and tried to cheer himself up, and he seemed to feel particularly refreshed.

It was a feeling of early spring, and in this fresh air, he smelled the fragrance of flowers wafting in from the window, which was the fragrance of cherry blossoms, accompanied by the song of flowers, as if to show him the charm of life.

Emperor Meiji was like an initiation, discovering that the world before him always revealed his infinite charm in the most desperate moments.

He clenched his fists and thumped twice on his chest, firmly telling himself that the world would never despair, and that even if he died, he would come back to life.

Emperor Meiji said to the elders, "Ladies and gentlemen, I am very happy that you are here in this palace today, because you have followed this emperor all the way from the shogunate period of Japan, and we have created countless glories.

After no hatred, no star pass, no defeat to the ball

Because of you walking with me, the mountains and roads along the way, the storms and rains, for those of us who are fighting for the future of Japan, have become flat and sunny.

I often sigh at the cherry blossoms outside the window, why they always wither away in the most prosperous season.

The enemy of the Ke Gang Nuoke Star sails alone to make trouble

The beauty and beauty of life are as short as a white horse, and when I am most lost, all I remember are the cold dark night, and those endless bloody rains.

How many times have I wanted to escape, to escape to a barren mountain with no people, and I will be alone for the rest of my life.

I often endure the pain of illness in the dark night, and those hopeless battles, which make me feel that the future of Japan is so bleak, and I am a sinner of Japan!

We in Japan are like a lonely boat in the vast Pacific Ocean, which may be overturned by huge waves at any time, and I feel extreme fear every day.

But we had no choice. I often face the end of the vast sea, and the black and white alternation of sunrise and sunset gives me the strength and inspiration of life.

He seems to be telling me that even if we can't choose where we live, we can bring endless glory to this land!

We in Japan are facing great disasters and misfortunes, and this is not the time for us to shirk our responsibilities and evade them.

Even if I would despair, even if I was disheartened, even if I wanted to live in mediocrity, I still chose to face this disaster!

Sun Qiuke is far away, showing that he is not a lone ghost

Sun Qiu Keyuan took a deep breath and tried to cheer up his spirits, he seemed to feel particularly refreshed.

Today, I invite you to discuss with you the future of Japan, and we must take responsibility for the failures that we are facing in Japan.

There is a saying that if you go in the wrong direction, to stop is to advance, I mean, we put aside the instigation of the shameless Americans, withdraw our troops from Taiwan, fulfill the Pyongyang Treaty, return to our homeland in Japan, and we start all over again! ”

Emperor Meiji's eloquent speech touched the seven veteran politicians of Japan, who showed their extremely mature personalities in the most difficult time in Japan, and they were like the backbone of the Japanese Yamato nation.

Yamaguchi said: "Your Majesty the Emperor, your decision is correct, we once had nothing, we have also experienced countless failures, these are nothing, the important thing is that in the face of these setbacks and failures, our Japan has never given up, I believe that God will always give his children who have worked hard, leaving a way to live." ”

Katsura Taro nodded and said: "Earl Yama County said very well, we all survived from hardships, we worked hard all the way to create the glory of Japan, and now those prosperity have dispersed, and I am afraid of starting all over again!" Your Majesty the Emperor, as long as you have faith, Japan will not fall. ”

Hirobumi Ito stood up, walked in front of His Majesty the Emperor, and said, "Your Majesty, I think you don't need to worry too much in front of us, because your thinking and courage have won Japan respect in the world, and we believe that your decision is correct every time."

Your Majesty, give the order! ”

Emperor Meiji was satisfied to hear the voices of these courtiers around him, because there was nothing more precious than the concerted efforts of the people in times of disaster, and he looked out the window at the cherry blossoms in full bloom, and he believed that Japan would definitely rise again, and would never sink again!

So, he asked Dashan Yan to issue an order to the Japanese troops stationed in Taiwan and the Japanese Combined Fleet in the Taiwan Strait: Evacuate Taiwan immediately!

And asked Ito Hirobumi to call Hainan Wang Chenzhong, and Japan will immediately hand over Taiwan with the Hainan Palace.

At this time, the Japanese Ministry of Foreign Affairs sent a telegram from the US military, which listed the expenses and expenses of the two US fleets in the Taiwan Strait.

The US side proposed that the two fleets would pass through Japan in two days, and that Japan would be asked to make logistical supplies for them at that time.

Emperor Meiji looked at the dense list of supplies needed by the US military on the cable, and sneered and said, "The Americans who went to Nima have been shameless to this point!" ”

Hirobumi Ito asked, "Your Majesty the Emperor, how do we call back the US military?" ”

Emperor Meiji thought for a moment and said, "Tell Roosevelt to go to Taipei and resupply the special American fleet!" ”(51)
