Chapter 262: The Great Qing Dynasty's National Policy
readx;
Looking at the Empress Dowager of the Two Palaces, who looked extremely tired, Yixin realized for the first time that she was so powerless? His dignified Prince Qing Gong was helpless? With such a big news, no consul of a country informed him? On the contrary, Britain and Russia, which have always been the most enthusiastic about signing various treaties with the imperial court, have also been lukewarm recently, not near or far, and their attitudes are very incomprehensible? What do these foreigners want to do?
Thinking that the Great Qing Kingdom couldn't even take out the troops to defend the Yangtze River, so that it had to give up less than half of its Zhili to hold Jinan? Yixin was also a little disheartened suddenly. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
A few days ago, Prince Ziyi Zaiyuan quit all his errands and took his daughter back to Shengjing to recuperate, Yixin had heard some rumors before, saying that Aiyena and Lin Haijiang had always kept in touch Yunyun, but he didn't believe it, Aiyena is also a banner personality in what she said, Lin Haijiang wants to destroy the Qing Dynasty, Aiyena can still have a connection with it? However, when he thought that Lin Haijiang, who was the commander of the Nanyang Naval Division, threatened the imperial court and saved Zaiyuan's old life, Yixin hated it so much at the time, but after a few years, Yixin found that it didn't seem to have the kind of hatred he had at the beginning.
Yixin knew that Zaiyuan had seen through everything, and he could afford to put it down, but although he had seen it through, he was very unwilling, unwilling to wait for many years, and everything he had worked so hard to plan was wasted, and he saw that Lin Haijiang had been taken away? Yixin is really unwilling, he is still young, he still has ambitions and ambitions! In order to resist the rebels of the Chinese Empire, how much did the Qing Dynasty have to pay?
To be honest, Yixin doesn't know that the Russians are entrenched in Heilongjiang and do not retreat from the imperial court, which is tantamount to swallowing the evil consequences, knowing that the Russians have no faith and are wolf ambitions for Heilongjiang, but they just lead the wolf into the house,
Yixin looked at the orphans and widows of the Qing Dynasty helplessly and didn't know what to say, and hesitated for a while before saying: "After the Prussians defeated the French, the coronation ceremony of the German Emperor was held at Versailles in France. ”
Yixin made Ci'an and Cixi look empty, in recent days, the two of them have frequent nightmares, and are asking the mage to recite the scriptures to calm down, but I didn't expect that there was really such a big basket, what is Ci'an doing to whom? It's not very clear who invited whom, and who didn't invite whom, and I don't want to ask too much, but seeing Prince Gong's nervous look, I have to pay attention to it.
And Cixi had helped Xianfeng approve the Zezi before, and she still had some understanding of the things between the European and Western countries, and what Prince Gong said was probably the problem that the Western countries had changed their attitude towards the Qing Dynasty! This matter is related to the life and death of the Qing Dynasty, if it loses the support of Western countries, I am afraid that in less than a year, or more than two years, the Qing Dynasty will be wiped out under the guns of Lin Haijiang.
Cixi suddenly remembered an incident a long time ago, she didn't care whether Lin Haijiang's promise could be fulfilled back then, the only thing she cared about was her own life, she believed that Lin Haijiang would still be able to remember some of the old feelings, so that at least her surname would be worry-free!
But seeing the Qing Dynasty collapse like this? fell from the position of the empress dowager, Cixi couldn't accept it anyway, it can be said that it is her bottom line to be able to keep her surname, but whenever there is still a chance she will do her best to fight for it.
The cold hall let the pot in the hand of a little eunuch standing next to it fall to the ground, when there was a loud sound, frightened Ci'an, Cixi and Yixin three people stood up and looked around, when they found that the little eunuch who made trouble had been so frightened that he knelt down to the ground like chaff, Cixi raised her eyebrows and waved and said: "Pull out the cane and die!" ”
The guards on the side immediately rushed in like a wolf and kicked the little eunuch down, and quickly removed his chin, so as not to insult the queen mother by talking nonsense in despair, and after the little eunuch was dragged away, the silence of death returned to the hall.
Ci'an, who seemed to hesitate for a while, suddenly said to Yixin: "Prince Gong, do you say that this Lin Yi can not let us keep Zhili and Shengjing?" If it really doesn't work, let's retreat outside the border? What do you think? At least I still have the name of the Qing Dynasty, and I don't have a glimmer of hope for hard work? ”
Yixin said a little helplessly: "Back to the Queen Mother, Lin Yi became an army a year ago, and the names of his warships are all the key points where the governors of various places are located, and their ambition lies in the whole world, I am afraid that Sheng Jingjing should be in his calculations, and peace talks are probably impossible, unless we abdicate today, we can only wait for death!" ”
"What!" Ci'an immediately stood up when he heard Yixin's outspoken reaction, pacing back and forth: "How can this be reasonable, this is really too deceitful!" ”
Cixi said expressionlessly on the side: "Since ancient times, the king has been defeated, and my Qing Dynasty is no exception, now I ask you Prince Gong, if Lin Wei dominates the world, will the treaties we signed with the Western countries continue to be valid?" ”
Yixin frowned and thought for a long time and said: "In terms of Lin Rei's surname, the surname may be very small, if Lin Rei dominates the world, the first thing to abolish is probably those treaties, Lin Rei often denounces the disadvantages of treaties in the newsprint in Guangzhou, etc., in fact, there is also a secret agreement between Lin Haijiang and Germany in the West, but no one knows the secret, otherwise the Germans can let it go for no reason, ask for money for money, and ask for warships for battleships?" ”
Obviously, Yixin's relationship with the Chinese Empire and Germany is associated with the relationship between the Qing court and the Western countries, and the two sides are not put on an equal exchange at all. But Cixi and Ci'an don't know what's going on with this, the country-to-country issues, especially the matter of dealing with foreigners, they are also trying their best to avoid, foreigners are rude, foreigners are greedy, but the Qing Dynasty can't beat foreigners, this seems to be a vicious cycle for the Qing court, and the only way is to avoid as little contact as possible.
Cixi hesitated for a moment and said, "Prince Gong, the mourning family asks you, if Lin rebels and thieves abolish those treaties, what will be the attitude of the Western countries?" ”
Yixin was obviously a little helpless and said: "The attitude of the Western countries? Westerners believe in the diplomacy of ships and guns above force, and they have already compared with Lin Rei, the warships that came from afar were either sunk or captured, and the final result was that Lin Rei's strength almost doubled, even if Lin Reversible abolished those treaties, I am afraid that the Western countries would call it at most! I'm afraid that the only one who can really fight with Lin Wei is England, but now the attitude of England towards Lin Wei can be described as very ambiguous, I'm afraid it won't help much, and Lin Wei disdains the pressure of foreigners, but there will be a counter-effect in it, which will make us more dangerous! ”
Cixi nodded and said, "I roughly understand what Prince Gong said, could the reason why the Western countries are indifferent is that the treaty has brought them too few benefits during this period?" If we can make more concessions and sign more treaties, will they intervene jointly? The treaty is nothing more than giving foreigners more money, giving them more convenience, and giving them more face, these are inconsequential things for our Qing Dynasty, as long as the Qing Dynasty is still there, we still have a chance, right? ”
Yixin didn't expect Cixi's understanding of the so-called treaty to be the so-called giving foreigners more money, giving them more convenience, and giving them more face? If it were someone else, he would definitely scold this for nonsense, but the one sitting above was half the sky of the Qing Dynasty, he didn't dare and couldn't! Because Cixi is not a big-hearted woman, she is very good at holding grudges, and even remembers clearly who bullied her when she was a child.
Yixin hesitated for a moment, and decided to follow Cixi's words: "The minister will go down and send someone to do what the queen mother wants!" ”
Cixi seemed a little excited about her foresight, but then she also realized that she had gone a little too far, such as asking Ci'an's opinion before deciding! So Cixi waved her hand very calmly and said: "I'm just talking about it casually, how to handle it and ask my sister's opinions and ideas, and then you can take it to the military aircraft department and let them draw up a way to get it back?" ”
Ci'an smiled happily at Cixi's so-called humility: "I don't have much contact with this kind of thing, sister, in the future, it's better for you to call the shots, now our Qing Dynasty court is equivalent to raising a group of rice buckets, and one is more powerful than the other. If it weren't for the fact that they saw the Nanyang family back then, they tricked the emperor into moving Lin Haijiang, and now it is the traitor Lin Haijiang who has opened up the territory and protected the people for the Qing Dynasty! Maybe at this moment, Lin Reyi is already a very human minister! Alas! ”
Yixin This is the first time he heard Ci'an talk about Lin Haijiang, he knows that there will be some secrets and the like, he thought that Lin Haijiang is the one who will be opposed, it seems that there is a story in it?
Ci'an waved his hand and said, "That's it! Prince Gong will bother you, no matter what conditions the foreigners offer, as long as they are willing to lend our silver to provide us with sample guns, foreign cannons, and even send troops to participate in the war, we can sacrifice anything, as long as the Qing Dynasty is still there, let's talk about it slowly! ”
