259: Decisions that have influenced the history of China
Yuan Shikai refused Wang Sirui's invitation without hesitation, Wang Sirui was only slightly stunned, and then understood Yuan Shikai's intentions. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
He laughed at himself and left the slightly chic courtyard in the middle of the barracks.
In fact, this is exactly what Yuan Shikai is clever, since Wang Sirui tried his best to imprison him here a few years ago, although he was entertained with good food and drink, he did not treat his family in any excesses.
But after all, it is involuntary.
And through the precipitation of the past few years, Yuan Shikai has seen something that he has never seen before.
Yuan Shikai thinks that he is a generation of heroes, which is something he has never revealed to anyone.
But with the passage of the past few years, Yuan Shikai saw in Wang Sirui's body that he did not have.
In the past few years, Yuan Shikai has a feeling of both Yu and He Shengliang.
Therefore, when Wang Sirui sent out an invitation, Yuan Shikai refused his invitation without hesitation.
It's not because Yuan Shikai doesn't want to go out of the mountain, it's not that he doesn't want to reunite with his family, and it's not that he doesn't want to show his ambitions.
But Yuan Shikai knew very well that he couldn't go out before Wang Sirui became an accident.
Wang Sirui's vigilance of him is far beyond anyone else, even those powers, not as good as Yuan Shikai.
Yuan Shikai knew very well that the moment when the Qing Dynasty fell was the moment when he was reunited with his family.
Even in this life, Yuan Shikai's family will not worry about eating and drinking, and live a superhuman life. But Yuan Shikai will never get the rights.
In that case, why would he gamble with his family's life?
…………
Inside the palace!
Emperor Guangxu sat there with a dejected expression, his face was a little pale, and he seemed to be a little malnourished.
By his side, he was Emperor Guangxu's favorite concubine, and as for his queen, she was still not able to get Emperor Guangxu's favor.
The most ruthless emperor's family, throughout the ages, but if the queen is not personally selected by the emperor, there is only one end, lonely and old, no favor and no luck.
The empress of Emperor Guangxu, Empress Longyu is naturally the same.
As Guangxu, who had long wanted to bring down Cixi, how could he spoil the queen that Cixi personally chose for him? Besides, this queen is still the daughter of Cixi's brother Yehenara Guishen?
Regarding which concubine the emperor wants to pamper, Wang Sirui naturally has no heart to care, and the royal family, which has long been accustomed to a noble and luxurious life, finally began to gradually get used to this kind of life after a few years of poverty.
Of course, there are many people who don't fit in, because there is a huge difference in life before and after, there are several royal families who have gone crazy, and many have died.
But today, Wang Sirui came to the palace in person, and he wanted to do a big thing, a big event that was enough to affect Chinese history.
"Are you still used to this kind of life?" Wang Sirui took a sip of tea gently, and didn't look at Emperor Guangxu sitting opposite and Concubine Zhen standing behind him.
"I'd rather be a common man than live in a deep palace anymore." Emperor Guangxu said directly.
Anyway, he was fed up with this kind of life, although he didn't have to worry about food and clothing, but Emperor Guangxu felt like a guinea pig.
In the past, although he was imprisoned in Yingtai by Cixi for several years, but there, Guangxu could still control his power in the outside world, as long as it was not too much, Cixi would not interfere.
But now, not to mention the forces of the outside world, even the palace maids and eunuchs around him, he can't command them, and he doesn't even have a caring person around him.
How could Emperor Guangxu, who had lived as an emperor for decades, adapt to it?
As the saying goes, it is easy to go from thrift to luxury, and it is difficult to go from luxury to thrift, and now Emperor Guangxu has thoroughly experienced the difficult life of ordinary people.
But he was the one who was very helpless, he wanted to reform, but he was strongly interfered by Cixi, not only stopped his reform, but even imprisoned him in Yingtai.
As a result, he encountered a national disaster, and as soon as the national disaster left, Wang Sirui, a hypocrite, took advantage of the situation and took control of the entire court in one fell swoop.
In the early days, Emperor Guangxu could be said to wash his face with tears every day.
But the tears wet the pillow, and the tears moved the heavens, but they still failed to move Wang Sirui, Emperor Guangxu, and they can only live the same life, without quarrel with the world, and have nothing to do with me!
"Then be an ordinary citizen!" Wang Sirui glanced at Guangxu lightly, responded in a flat tone, and then said: "Give you a month, take a good look here, and after a month, I will announce the abdication edict for you." ”
"What...... What the? Guangxu was stunned suddenly, his mind full of shock.
Before, he was just an angry remark out of despair, who knew that Wang Sirui would directly ask him to abdicate.
Abbrement, what does it mean? This means that the Qing Dynasty, which ruled China for 267 years (1636-1903), will cease to exist.
Guangxu cried, scolded, annoyed, and despaired, but he never thought of abdicating.
That's the foundation of the ancestors, if it is destroyed in his own hands like this, Guangxu doesn't even know how to go down to see the ancestors.
Although he, the bare-bones emperor, was really in power for a day, even the days when Cixi returned power to him were not long, and he had to be restrained by Cixi.
However, is the Qing Dynasty about to die? Guangxu was unwilling, if Daqing really died in his hands, then he had nothing to say, but now......
If Guangxu lived in the next generation, he would definitely shout loudly at this moment, I don't carry this pot.
Wang Sirui didn't explain anything to Emperor Guangxu, because there was no need for this.
And he personally came to tell Emperor Guangxu about this matter, in fact, it was just to show his respect.
Although he hated the Qing Dynasty very much, he hated the empire that had humiliated the history of China, and could not completely recover even in the next one or two hundred years.
However, after all, it was just a person's hatred, and the existence of the Qing Dynasty, to a certain extent, was still beneficial to the Chinese nation, at least they had done a lot of good things, nothing more.
"Wait......" Emperor Guangxu called out to Wang Sirui, who was about to leave, hesitated, gritted his teeth and said: "I have only one request, the royal family can continue to live in the palace." ”
Listening to Emperor Guangxu's 'request', Wang Sirui couldn't help but sigh a little, what can the emperor's family do? Even now, isn't it still difficult to give up this rich life?
But now Wang Sirui, who can't wait to break a penny in half, will he still have the heart to let the royal family continue to live in the palace? Besides, they don't need money to live here? Annually not allocated, funds are allocated for repairs? The royal family lives here and lives like an uncle every day, and he has no money to support it?
"Your ancestors can let Emperor Chongzhen continue to live in this Bauhinia City?" Wang Sirui responded lightly, and turned around to leave.
Looking at Wang Sirui's figure that was far away, Emperor Guangxu burst into tears in an instant, and Concubine Zhen on the side was also stunned.
The royal family, the Qing Dynasty, an empire is just gone?
……
After returning to the barracks, Wang Sirui locked himself in the office, did not see anyone, and did not handle any official business.
To make such a decision is actually very irrational in the current period.
But he had no choice, the Han army had already occupied a large part of the country, and the army was currently in a period of frequent collapse, and there were only two ways to solve this problem.
One is to abandon a few of these provinces, and then develop with peace of mind for a year, and then continue to expand when the military is sufficient. The other is to inject a shot of strength into the army, so that everyone is full of energy, and what can be done in one year can be done in half a year.
But no matter how you choose, there are pros and cons to these two methods, and how to choose depends on how Wang Sirui considers it.
Now, Wang Sirui has chosen the latter.
Although on the surface, the seven-nation alliance may once again form a trend of alliances, in fact, Wang Sirui is still easy to break their alliance.
And the ones who can really pose a threat to themselves are the Russians and Japanese, as well as the navy of the coalition forces.
Of course, all this is just some international disputes, and the real most difficult is the domestic one.
The change of the two dynasties is by no means something that can be completed in a while, and there may be how many people are waiting to make a move.
Wang Sirui has ruled for nearly three years, and the manpower of various departments under his command is almost the same, but in fact there are still big vacancies, especially the officials in some positions who cannot adapt to Wang Sirui's thinking at all, and they still hold the previous ideas to govern, these are all problems.
"There won't be big problems in the various departments in the country, and even if there are, it's only a minor problem. The area north of the Yangtze River is the most stable area, and it will be my base camp. The southern provinces are currently unstable, and Mongolia, Tibet, and as far away as Xinjiang are likely to be uncertainties. Thinking of this, Wang Sirui shook his head suddenly, and comforted himself again and again:
"Well, how can there be such a good thing in the world? Wasn't this the case when the People's Republic of China was founded? As long as he stabilizes the base camp and builds the southern provinces into his own base camp, and then resists the pressure of the foreigners, he will be able to recover all the Chinese territory in three years at most. And Russia's Far Eastern Railway seems to have been officially opened to traffic until 16 years, and when they finish it, they will have enough strength to defeat the Russians.
As for the interference of the powers, hum, come on, do you really think that Wang Sirui is a vegetarian? The small Japanese and the Russians together can send at most 200,000 people, and even whether they can support the logistics themselves is another matter. The Second Army has 288,000 people, except for those stationed in various places, and when the time comes, two divisions will be transferred from the capital, and the Han army will still have an advantage in terms of numbers, and in terms of firepower, Wang Sirui is not worried at all. Those two troops who have been training for a year should also be pulled out to practice their hands. ”
