Chapter 45: The First Constitutional Convention

When he came to the Taihe Hall the next day, Guangxu was startled, what are you going to do at this time, how can there be so many people, are these officials above the third grade!

After careful inquiry, I found out that it was true, but most of them were people who did not have real jobs, and they were naturally very concerned when they heard that something had been done, and this matter was related to their vital interests! That's why there is this room full of people, although the Taihe Hall in the Summer Palace is a little smaller than the one in the Forbidden City. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Guangxu sat in the middle, on the right was the 200 constitutional amendment representatives selected by the cabinet, on the left were the representatives who were not elected, and there were many other relatives and nobles who also came, this is not the Forbidden City, so there are fewer rules. Seeing that the emperor was coming, everyone was a little quiet!

Looking at these people, many old ministers thought of the scene of Emperor Qianlong debating in the Hanlin Academy many years ago, which was also such a scene, many people talked about the scriptures together, and sometimes the emperor would also talk about a scripture, and the ministers were listening to the teachings. At that time, the teenagers were already old people, the years were like knives, and the knives urged people to grow old!

I saw Guangxu stand up and let everyone be quiet, and then spoke; "The sages of China believed that the country is not always strong and weak. Those who follow the law are strong, the country is strong, and those who follow the law are weak, and the country is weak. ”

What a pity!

In the past 5,000 years, how many ups and downs have China experienced to modern times, the Chinese Empire really doesn't know who else can be stronger than us.

The lions that have been fighting for 5,000 years are asleep, and the flying dragons are dormant, but while they are asleep, many countries have surpassed us, and when we open our eyes to the world, the world has changed, foreign guns are faster than bows and arrows, and there are ironclad ships on the sea that are larger than Zheng He's treasure ships, and more importantly, these people don't know what civilized etiquette is.

They savagely occupy the territory of my Huaxia, bully my Chinese people, and insult my Huaxia vassal countries, they don't feel guilty at all, they are all robbers! They are still laughing at us, laughing at our poverty, laughing at our cowardice!

No! We are not poor, there are countless famous mountains, countless plains, countless rivers, and thousands of miles of maritime frontiers from south to north, and there will not be a few countries as big as my Chinese Empire in the whole world!

We are asleep, the lion is about to rise, the dragon is about to take off, the good sons and daughters of China! Follow me!

I will bring you a new world!

We want to let the light of China shine again on the whole world!

Long live Huaxia!

China will win!

Please all stand up!

We sang the army song "Loyal to the Country"

。。。。。。

All sit down!

As we all know, there are no rules. The rules of a country are the law, and the prosperity and strength of China must start from the establishment of rules, and all things that hinder the rise of China and all things that hinder the prosperity and strength of China must give way!

Quiet, quiet!

In the future, the Constituent Assembly will exist for a long time, and it will find problems and solve them at will!

To make all the people of insight in China be willing to contribute to the rise of China, everyone collects firewood and the flame is high, the rise of the Chinese Empire is inseparable from everyone, with everyone's participation, I believe! The future of the Chinese Empire must be even better!

Long live the Emperor!

Long live Huaxia!

The sound of slogans could not be calmed for a long time!

The Constituent Assembly later became the legislative body of the Chinese Empire, but that was much later!

Guangxu let everyone do a good job and talk about today's topic!

The first one, you can't just raid your home! Agree with it!

Second, you can't kill the minister without permission! Agree with it!

Third, you can't punish casually! Agree with it!

Fourth, ** no more! Agree with it!

Article 5 。。。。。。

On this day, Guangxu and the ministers discussed nearly 100 laws!

When Tianshi finished speaking, Guangxu asked how many laws there were?

The Shangshu of the Criminal Department is about to cry, don't you know how many laws there are, Your Majesty?

Guangxu is weird, should I know?

At this time, Weng Tongyi said, the emperor and I have a total of 218,747 laws in the Qing Dynasty, and if you subtract what the emperor just abolished, there are 。。。。。。

Guangxu said, stop!

I don't have time to come here every day!

So be it!

Celebrate the king! Uncle Qinghuang!

Old man Qing came out of the corner!

Uncle Huang, just work hard!

Now I have appointed you as the Speaker of the Constitutional Amendment Assembly, and you as the Deputy Speaker of the Criminal Department. Tomorrow you will not go to the court, just practice the law here, this is a very important thing, you must know that every decision you make affects the lives of millions of people! So be sure to pay attention to this matter!

This law is not revised in a day or two, and you can't let the old and young masters come here every day to rely on it, and you have to take care of the food anyway! Uncle Huang, you will spend 200,000 taels of silver when you go to the Internal Affairs Office, do you have to eat enough!

Of course, you can't just be an individual! You don't even know a word, you know how to raise your hand here, the purpose is to cheat a full meal at noon, how can it work! So, we have a few rules.

First, those who come here must be famous for their oil to come here, and those who have obtained titles under the shadow of their ancestors, don't come, I can't afford to lose people!

Second, the person who comes here must have his own unique opinion, although you have fame, but if you have an opinion, you know what is the use of raising your hand, so the second rule is that this person must have engraved the manuscript (that is, the person who has published a book).

Thirdly, as long as two-thirds of the people agree to all the laws in the future, they can be set down and reported to me.

In the future, I will come and visit you whenever I have time!

Everyone has worked hard today, let's rest early!

With the edicts of today's revised laws and regulations being issued from the Beijing Division one after another, the nervous system of the Chinese Empire is changing little by little, and he will accumulate a lot of energy, which will be a booster for the rise of the Chinese Empire!

Back to the palace Guangxu is the old policy, if there is something to do, go back to the palace with her to see the queen mother, go home and sleep again, today came with a few ministers, among them is Guangxu's father! Prince Alcohol!

Prince Alcohol has received the news from Europe that Germany wants to build a joint arms factory with our country, but there has been no such thing before, what should I do!

Cixi stopped playing mahjong, what do you think you should do, Your Majesty!

Guangxu said, of course, it is a try, what can a factory have, if it is not good, just like this long nail, cut it off, the key depends on what kind of conditions, as long as the conditions are suitable, we will build it!

According to the telegram sent back by Li Hongzhang and Tang Shaoyi, it was Germany that paid for it, and China contributed technology, land, and workers, and the profit share was 55 for 50 years.

Guangxu said no, the time was too long, and sent a telegram to Prince Gong and Li Zhongtang, as well as the advance envoy Guo Songtao, asking them to tell Germany that we must not make concessions in terms of time, and if they are willing to cooperate with us, the weapons we jointly produce will be the most advanced in the world, and Germany can become the country with the most powerful army in the world.

Moreover, China also has the technology to be the most powerful warship in the world, and as long as Germany is willing to cooperate, China can let Germany have the most powerful navy in the world.

At the same time, the arms we produce will be the best-selling products in the arms market, so that the products will generate very considerable profits, and the profits will lay a solid economic foundation for the rise of our two countries. At the same time, it can also promote the development of other industries, because Germany has a solid industrial base, but China's industrial base is still relatively weak, so we can not make concessions in profit distribution, and we need these capital accumulations.

The products jointly produced by China and Germany, our two countries jointly enjoy patents, and with Germany's strong industrial strength, Germany will definitely be a big winner. China and Germany are not at a loss, win-win cooperation!

Germany is invited to make a careful decision!

If Germany is not willing to cooperate, we Huaxia can cooperate with Britain and France, and will not give in!

Guangxu also had to make such a decision, but the decadent Qing Dynasty was also rotten in enterprise management, but the strange thing is that the customs, only the head of the General Administration of Customs of this agency is British, and the others are Chinese, and this yamen is very clean.

Guangxu hopes to introduce a little advanced management system and improve production efficiency, but the current national industrial capitalist forces are still very weak and cannot afford such a large investment!

Another aspect is to find a strong reinforcement! It's better to have more friends, after all, the current Germany is not Hitler's Germany!

There was also a telegram to Nanyang immediately, asking them to train the local militia as soon as possible, and even after the army withdrew, the Nanyang Chinese should have the ability to protect themselves.

I hope that such Chinese will go to the coastal and inland provinces to develop industry, and the empire will give policy and tax support! It's all about technology!

Daddy!

Ministers, China has to invest a lot of energy and money in education, but these investments have not contributed much to the improvement of China's comprehensive national strength.

The reason is that we can say that we have less requirements for these readers, they only read and read, they do not know the current affairs, their thoughts are outdated, they do not distinguish between right and wrong, and their limbs are not diligent, and they do not distinguish between grains and grains.

The specific details are determined by the Ministry of Rites, the purpose is to recruit smart people to serve the empire, and make a literati's due contribution to the rise of the empire.

At the same time, the British embassy received a telegram sent by Guangxu to Guo Songtao, originally thought that there was only one, but I did not expect that the emperor sent letters of state to all the countries that have established diplomatic relations with China. also let Guo Songtao, as a state envoy, try to make friends with independent sovereign countries as much as possible!

In this way, the old man began to get busy again, it was really hard for this old man, who was already in his sixties, and began to write the national letter! Then he used his acquaintances in Britain to meet Queen Victoria.

Guo Songtao met Queen Victoria three days later, remembering that when they last met a year ago, he took his wife with him, and Guo Songtao was evaluated as "the most polite Chinese".

More than ten years have passed since we met again this time, and Victoria's lover John Brown. Brown also died not long ago, the queen is very sad, there are fewer and fewer old people to see, this time the queen didn't expect to see this Guo Songtao who left a deep impression on him! So the queen is very happy!

When he saw Guo Songtao, Guo Songtao's hair was completely white, Guo Songtao did not wear the traditional Qing Dynasty official uniform, but wore a tuxedo, a red ribbon, and a silver dragon medal given to him by Guangxu on his chest, and the whole person looked very spiritual.

After Guo Songtao entered the door, the queen stood up to greet him, Guo Songtao made three bows he created, and then the queen bowed back, the queen had not stood up for many years. Such a move surprised many young guards and maidservants!

Guo Songtao's foreign language is very bad, and there has not been much progress over the years, and he didn't say a few words, so he had to call a translator, this time it was Tang Guoan who acted as the translator, this person was the later president of Tsinghua University, and when he was translating, the queen complained; "Guo! Your English really hasn't improved at all."

The queen asked Guo Songtao a lot of personal questions, such as is your wife coming with you? Is she okay? Wait a minute!

Guo Songtao replied one by one.

They talked about a lot of things, most of the time, the queen said to herself, Guo Songtao listened quietly, time passed quickly, and the queen invited Guo Songtao to have afternoon tea together!

When Guo Songtao wanted to talk about a lot of fun, he handed over Guangxu's letter of state, and after Queen Victoria read it, she said; "Is your emperor really only sixteen years old?"

Yes!

This is so young!

Guo Songtao said; "We've all been young, and we're all going to age! As long as we've had a wonderful time! ”

After listening to the translation, Victoria smiled and said, "That's a good thing!"

That's when Victoria spoke; "The medal on your chest is beautiful!"

Guo Songtao said; "When I received this medal, it was the most glorious moment of my life, I was the first person in China to receive this medal, and it was awarded by the emperor himself!"

Victoria said, "That's when your hard work pays off!"

Tell your emperor! I am willing to accept his suggestion, and I hope that this matter can be resolved peacefully, and that the two countries will strengthen cooperation in all aspects, which I will talk to the Prime Minister and the Minister of the Navy.

Guo Songtao stood up and bowed!

Victoria said; Can you come and talk to me more!

Guo Songtao said that he was very sorry, I have the emperor's order!

There are still many places to go!

Victoria said; "See me again when you go back! myfriend" Guo Songtao saluted and left!

Then Guo Songtao's next stop is France! Germany! Italy! Russia!
