(1st Update)

Facts have proved that as soon as the imperial cabinet was established, it showed a congenital deficiency disease, and the color of imperial power that could not be erased was doomed to the fate of its deformed children.

The Prime Minister, Yi-劻, is called the Prime Minister, the clan.

The Associate Minister and the Minister of the Branch, Zai Ze, is known as the first vice minister, the clan.

The assistant minister, Xu Shichang, is called the second vice minister, Han nationality.

Minister of Foreign Affairs, Shi Xu, Manchu, Vice Minister Shao Chang, Jue Luo. Minister of the Ministry of Justice, Shou Qi, Zong, Minister of Justice, Dai Hongci, Han nationality, Vice Minister, Minister of Civil Affairs, Shi Duo, Zong, Minister of Agriculture and Industry Zai Gong, Zong, Vice Minister, Zai Zhen, Zong, Minister of the Ministry of War, Yin Chang, Manchu, Vice Minister, Feng Guozhang, Han nationality. Minister of Posts and Communications, Sheng Xuanhuai, Han nationality

Looking at this cabinet list, there are 23 assistant prime ministers and deputy ministers of various ministries, of which 15 are Manchus, including 12 members of the imperial family, and only eight of the Han people, and most of them are still deputy positions.

Yi-Liang invisibly broke the practice of Manchu and Han co-governance, but this was a fatal wound.

The first to sit still was the constitutionalists, who originally had two demands, one was to convene the Diet quickly, and the other was to be responsible for the cabinet, the former died in the middle of the peace talks, and the appearance of the latter made them even more disappointed.

Although most of these members of the imperial cabinet were well-known political reformers, not all of them were stubbornly conservative and incompetent, although Yi-Liang was greedy, he was a recognized reformer, openly advocating the separation of powers, Zai Ze, Pu Lun, Shanqi, and Shaochang were all five foreign ministers, and they were themselves enthusiastic constitutional practitioners, and they were also the most knowledgeable members of the Manchu elite, and their political tendencies were quite enlightened, and they even secretly had endless contacts with Liang Qichao and other "anti-party" people.

Strictly speaking, the Imperial Cabinet is not a "reactionary" cabinet, but the merits of the cabinet members have become insignificant and meaningless compared to the deformed cabinet personnel match.

Since Yi-Liang still regarded his family as more important than anyone else, the vast number of ordinary people had reason to believe that the Qing court still regarded state power as the private property of one family and one surname, and they not only did not trust the Han people, but also did not trust the Manchus who were not related by blood, except for a small number of relatives and nobles in their own family, they did not care about anyone.

If the constitutionalists were not satisfied, there was little chance of healing for the fatal wound, and remember, they had just staged a nationwide petition that even conceded to the regent.

Compared with the general disappointment of the constitutionalists in the government and the opposition, the antipathy of the local Han officials to the new cabinet was equally fatal, and the "imperial cabinet" deprived the local governors of the right to directly submit to the emperor and instead handed over the provinces to the cabinet, which was completely unacceptable to the local powerful factions who had already become large.

The "Imperial Cabinet" can be called the gravedigger of the Qing Dynasty.

The day after it shoveled out the first shovel, the waves gradually rose.

"Jingmin Evening News" took the lead in attacking, reprimanding Yi-Liao for defying the world's disapproval, in the name of the cabinet, practicing autocracy, and at the end of the article even such a spicy sarcasm, simply let the emperor divide the dragon chair in half, let Yi-Liao take it to sit and forget it, anyway, they are all people with the same surname.

Yang Du's style of writing is as sharp as in the past, as soon as this remark came out, the major newspapers have reprinted it, and Tianjin's "Ta Kung Pao" followed suit, jokingly saying that Yi-Liang should move the cabinet to the Qingwang Mansion and get the eunuchs and maids to the cabinet, so it is called the real "Qingji Company".

A few days ago, the newspaper also sang praises of virtue, but I didn't expect the limelight to fall, and they began to sign articles one after another, bombarding Yi-Xuan, and the bloody plot can be called a divine reversal in the history of the late Qing Dynasty

"Amma, this newspaper is too unusual!"

Seeing the tart in the newspaper, Zai Zhenqi stomped his feet, "Shiduo is not the new Minister of Civil Affairs, tell him to seal these newspapers and let them talk nonsense!" ”

The more Zai Zhen talked, the more angry he became, he was not angry at these unprincipled newspapers, he was purely sorry for his stupid behavior, "The princes of various families, Baylor are all vying to be ministers, there are only a few positions in total, and no one is willing to share less, now it's okay, it's all embarrassing!" ”

Yi-劊 cursed viciously, his face was almost iron-blue, and the wind of public opinion blew his eardrums painful, and he hadn't slept well for a few days.

"Report to the prince, King Xiao Gong is here." The subordinate suddenly came to report, Yi-Xuan glared, and said angrily: "What is he doing here?" ”

"If you know the words of the prince, King Xiaogong shouted to see the prince, saying that he had made great contributions to the establishment of the new cabinet, and he should be appointed as a minister no matter what he said."

"Tsk!"

Yi-Xuan was actually happy, "Pu Wei dared to reach out to the official, he thought that the devil six was still alive." ”

"Tell him that the king is not well and will not see anyone today." Yi-劊 waved his hand and said.

"Lord Wang, I'm afraid you also know the temper of King Gong, even the Queen Mother of the West dares to contradict it" The subordinate looked embarrassed.

Yi-Xuan snorted, his face full of disapproval.

"Queen Mother West? Now there is still the Queen Mother of the West, just tell him like this, if he doesn't leave, he will ask the palace guards to drive him away, if even he can't move, what else is the prime minister of the cabinet called this king, hum! ”

After the subordinates left, Zai Zhen came up.

"Amma, what should we do now, can't we let those newspapers make endless trouble?"

"If you want to make trouble, let them make trouble, they don't matter, as long as the Information Council doesn't make trouble." Yi-Xuan turned around and said, "Zai Zhen, you go to the Information Administration Yuan to find out the rumors and see what they mean?" ”

"Yes! My son will do it when he goes down. ”

Zai Zhen nodded obediently, looked left and right after a while, cautiously came up, and said in a low voice: "Amma, the son is Prince Heli, and the king of Keqin County has said that they are willing to support their son as the emperor, as long as Ama gives an order, we will break into the palace and take the little emperor"

"Emperor, Emperor, you want to go crazy, you don't know that this throne is a fire pit!"

Before Jae-jin finished speaking, Yi-Xuan was furious.

"What time is it? You still want to be an emperor! ”

Yi-slash the table and walk away. (To be continued.) )
