The situation in Jianzhou and North Korea has evolved too fast, and the Yinghua upper echelons did not expect that the collapse of "Jianman" would be so neat, and after the analysis, it should be that in the past 20 years, the power struggle between Jianman has been turned over and over again, and the two currents of thought of the bloodline theory and Datong Xinyi have poured in, and the hearts of the old people have been shattered.
With the exception of a few at the top, the middle and lower strata, which had built up the power apparatus, had completely lost its function. Gao Zhu and the others raised the most fashionable and radical moral banner, creating a general trend of people's hearts.
However, the reason why Gao Zhu and the two of them can succeed so smoothly is also because of Yinghua's attitude, if Yinghua is more sensitive, he will just exchange a look with South Korea, Yan Guo and Japan's Choshu Domain, and then restrain Liaodong a little, Gao Zhu and the two will not talk about the rebellion, I am afraid that eating will be a problem.
In Weiyang Palace, before the in-depth discussion, Li Kezai led everyone to make such a review and set such a principle: even if you want to let it go, you must ensure that the situation is always under Yinghua's control, and you can't wake up after the big change like this time.
Hearing Li Kezai's faint conclusion of overturning the emperor's decision, Yuan Shitai asked with some concern: "Does Your Majesty know about this?" ”
Thinking back to his father's teachings in the school, as well as the intention of handing him the book "Thesis Statement", Li Kezai shook his head and said: "I don't know, since my father has let me supervise the country, I have to take responsibility, if my father has other intentions, it will not be too late to talk about it." ”
Li Kezai's attitude was different from before, everyone was slightly awe-inspiring, Zhao Hanxiang pondered for a moment, nodded and said, "That's true." ”
As the spokesperson of the military center, Zhao Hanxiang's statement was like a signpost, Yuan Shitai, Chen Run, and Liu Dan didn't think about going to the emperor to express their position, and at the same time gave up their hands.
The military and diplomatic power of Great Britain was transformed at this moment and fell to Li Kezai. And this transition is so natural that no one thinks anything has changed.
After this principle was established, the countermeasures for the establishment of the state of Korea were also quickly introduced. There is no need for Yinghua to wade into this muddy water, but the new righteousness of Datong exalted by Jianzhou Korea is not tolerated by Yinghua, so it must be condemned on the table and put on a corresponding hostile posture.
The General Affairs Council will issue a proclamation to list the Republic of Daedong of the Korean People's Republic of Jianju as an "unrighteous country" to sever non-governmental trade and trade with Jianju Korea, organize public opinion in the country to crusade against Daedong Xinyi of Jianju Korea, and the Commander-in-General will issue a vigilant mobilization order to the Liaodong Metropolitan Protectorate, and the Privy Council will also organize volunteers to strengthen border patrols.
This is the bright side, the dark side, the General Council and the Privy Council Beiyang Department through the relationship between the Beiyang Company and the Yan State, and the Dongman entrenched on Kuyi Island, pushed them to express their stance, crusade against the Jianju Joseon to sever the "crime" of the Jianman Aixin Jueluo bloodline, and thus assert the right to rule and inherit the Jianju Joseon. Relevant spy agencies will support the contact and even integration of the East Manchurian forces with the hostile forces that will inevitably appear under the new regime of Jianju Joseon, so as to prepare for the next "reversal of the pot."
In addition, the Anglo-Chinese had no substantive hostile actions against the Jianju Korea, and even acquiesced to the proposal of Gao Zhu and the others to continue to maintain commercial and trade exchanges through the port of Incheon, and the Anglo-Chinese investment cooperation in the Jianju Korea was also continued to be carried out by the new regime instead of the old regime. In order to show its deference, the new regime offered customs concessions and mineral monopolies, and Yinghua also smiled at them.
"Just don't be requisitioned, it doesn't seem like you have to pay such a big price......
Chen Run was a little puzzled by Gao Zhu and the two of them putting their posture so low, and the meat cut out was so fat.
"This is to pay in advance for the subsequent scolding war, although the words are not clear, but the meaning is very clear. The great harmony and new righteousness that the two of them have drummed up cannot stand up without a foreign enemy, and our Yinghua is of course an excellent target. ”
Yuan Shitai saw through it, and one sentence broke through the intentions of Gao Zhu and the others.
As a simple martial artist, Zhao Hanxiang didn't understand it very much: "If they raise our Yinghua's heavenly righteousness, they will not only leave a name in history, but also gain authority, and they will not have to worry about the foundation." Why do you have to drum up some new righteousness, take a huge risk, and walk a tightrope under the nose of my Heavenly Dynasty? ”
Li Kezai sneered: "The great righteousness of heaven is to seek public interests, and the great righteousness of heaven is raised, everyone can seek profit from this great righteousness, how can they still seek their own selfish interests?" ”
Chen Run frowned and said: "The Great Harmony New Righteousness they rely on is also claimed to be in the line of Heavenly Great Righteousness, and it is also a New World Righteousness that surpasses my Yinghua, such as ...... Don't want the emperor, this one coincides with the first-class three sages of my Yinghua in my early years. ”
Liu Dan snorted coldly: "Don't want the emperor, just the people?" They are Gao Zhu and the two of them, they do not have the position of emperor, but their power is far better than that of the emperor! When Jianman wanted to open the country, Emperor Yonghe didn't dare to make a secret agreement with us alone, so he had to discuss it with the courtiers before talking. The two of them are neat, and they don't have to care about the hearts of the people in the country at all. ”
Zhao Hanxiang roughly understood, frowned, and said, "Aren't they afraid that we will shake out the details?" ”
Yuan Shitai and the others looked at him in surprise at the same time, and Li Kezai stroked his forehead and said, "Uncle Zhao, why do we want to shake out the details?" ”
Liu Dan was actuarial, and as soon as his eyes rolled, he said: "The benefits of Jianzhou Korea that Gao Zhu and the others gave up are enough to raise a red-clothed master every year......"
The corners of Zhao Hanxiang's eyes jumped, and his face suddenly turned cold: "What is discussed today is top secret!" Whoever leaks it out will have to go to the Great Judgment! ”
Including Li Kezai, everyone laughed.
As expected by Li Kezai and others, after the rise of the country, the country regarded itself as the lord of the great righteousness of the present world, crusading against the injustice of the surrounding countries, claiming that it would plant the banner of Daedong Xinyi all over the world and liberate the people of the world.
The situation in Beiyang has also changed, and Dongman, which is in charge of Zhaohui, suddenly became rich and began to jump on the Beiyang political stage to speak out. Yan and Japan were affected by the new meaning of the Great Harmony, and the people's hearts were chaotic again, and the light and dark forces that hated Yinghua had another weapon of popular support, but apart from these political agitations, the pattern of power in Beiyang did not produce any substantial changes.
Since then, there has been another lively incident in Beiyang, that is, the scolding war between Jianzhou North Korea and the surrounding countries, and the situation has also been tense several times, so nervous that most people think that it has been tense, and the smoke of gunpowder will rise at any time, but every time there will be various steps to emerge and resolve the crisis.
Gao Zhu and the others have always understood that they should first secretly communicate with neighboring countries, especially Yinghua, and then engage in overt confrontation. In contrast, another plane, the same land, more than 200 years later, a certain new Nen "people's leader" is too jerky. Without first reaching a sufficient tacit understanding with the "foreign enemy" parties, they came to engage in this set of tricks of using foreign enemies to gather power and fix their positions, and almost got away.
Where will the new Jianzhou Korea go, the Anglo-Chinese people in the 44th year of the Holy Road do not care much, and the global war is still the focus of everyone's attention, only in Beiyang, compared with Jianzhou Korea, Japan's Celestial Party uprising is more eye-catching. Therefore, there were very few reports on the changes in Jianzhou Korea in the newspapers of the country, and even "Zhongliu", which paid special attention to the surrounding situation, only published a small report on the sub-page, and the title of the article was still full of horror flavor "Jianman Aixinjue Luo Clan".
Chongming Island is full of sand and near the sea, a building is hidden between pines and firs, surrounded by three high walls, and there is a trace of solemn coldness in the tranquility. On the beach near the sea, a wooden bridge for boats plunges deep into the sea, and at low tide, the pillars of the trestle are exposed.
On the trestle, a wheelchair is parked at the head of the bridge, and behind the wheelchair are two maids. One maid held an umbrella to keep out the cold wind, while the other held a shelf in a wheelchair with a newspaper on the shelf. An old woman in a wheelchair with no arms, legs, and limbs read a page, and then the maid turned the page.
The maids were all recruited from the neighborhood, and they were taken by the old woman's popularity, and they served them meticulously, but they never understood the roots of the old woman, and they couldn't feel joy and anger. Therefore, when the old woman's body trembled slightly, and a small voice sounded in her throat, she was extremely puzzled.
Looking more closely, the two maids were startled, the old woman's eyes were violent, and she was glued to a certain part of the newspaper, as if she could gather light like a lens, and was about to ignite the newspaper, and a cheek that looked like a dry orange peel was also red and flushed, and the whole person no longer had the indifference of many years, like a cannon on the verge of exploding.
"Stand down!"
The old woman said in a rough voice, and the maids looked at each other, hesitating. They are the caretakers hired by the government, not the personal subordinates of the old woman, and their duty is to ensure the safety and health of the old woman, but they are not obedient to the old woman.
"Didn't you hear that! Retire! Get lost! Get out where I can't see! ”
The old woman was angry, but she had no arms or legs, and except for words, she could only use her chin to hit the newspaper rack to show her anger.
"Come pick me up in a moment and let me be quiet."
The maid did not dare to leave, the old woman was out of line, her tone turned soft, revealing a penetrating desolation, and the two maids finally left.
Yongqi ...... Why, son...... Why...... Woohoo......"
When the maid left, Martai-Ruxi, the former Empress Dowager Cichun of the Qing Dynasty, suddenly wailed and cried, hitting her head against the newspaper rack, tears splashing, and the pain was extreme.
Ru Xi has fallen to this day, and it is all caused by her biological son Yongqi, but she can't give birth to a trace of hatred. If she still wants anything in this life, it is to hope that her son can wake up and recognize himself as his biological mother.
There is no need to admit guilt or anything, as long as she recognizes herself as a mother, so that she can still taste the blind date of mother and son in this life, even if it is only for a moment, even if there is only a trace of sincerity, she has no regrets.
It is this kind of heart that supports her to survive, and supports her in the "sanatorium" on this desert island, sitting and watching the tide rise and fall, and the boat comes and goes.
Sometimes, she even hoped that Li Xian would be able to wave his troops into North Korea, capture her son, and lock him up with her. But when I thought of the sword and gun without eyes, maybe I would hurt my son, and I turned into fantasizing that the country of Yinghua would collapse, and my son would take the Manchurian people and carry the Yellow Dragon Flag into the customs, and once again the purple air came to the east to rule the Central Plains. Isn't this kind of mother-son meeting more complete the righteousness of public and private?
It's a pity that she has been on Chongming Island for more than ten years, and she has seen the Wusong shipyard and wharf hangers in the south lined up, the number of sailless ships is increasing day by day, the sound of steam whistles fills her ears, and the black and white smoke and clouds of sails stand side by side. The Anglo-Chinese country is changing with each passing day, and she sees it in her eyes one by one. As the newspaper said, the old world is gone, and Huaxia has entered the present world, and her fantasies are destined to be just vain.
So she gradually became depressed, how the country was, how the world was, how the Manchurians were, she didn't care, she only cared about her son.
Unexpectedly, reading the newspaper today, Jianzhou and North Korea were in turmoil, and the entire Jianman Aixin Jueluo was killed! His son Yongqi's family of more than 30 people was shot by the usurper and traitors, and the corpses of the whole family were hung outside Pyongyang, exposed for ten days to show the public, and then chopped up and burned to ashes, and the bones were scattered.
This bad news was too shocking, Ru Xi's blood seemed to have turned into tears, and she couldn't stop, and the whole person was also in a trance, and she no longer had any nostalgia for the world.
"It's long time gone to die, why should you be alive? And this sin! Repentance! ”
The moment had long passed, and the maid, hearing the cry, retreated farther away, waiting for herself to calm down. Unexpectedly, Ru Xi, who had calmed down, had already made a decision. It was too late for her.
With great difficulty, Ru Xi pressed his limbless body to the side of the wheelchair, and read again in his heart, "Son, my father is here."
The moment her head led her body to lean suddenly, the wheelchair overturned, Ru Xi threw herself into the sea under the trestle, smashed a wave, and the coolness penetrated her whole body from the top of her head, Ru Xi felt a relaxation that she had never experienced before, and she could hardly appreciate the ease even after absorbing enough Fushou cream.
Burst......
The imaginary sinking of the sea did not fall down, but the head rushed into the soft sand, sinking all the way to the forehead, and the cold feeling of the sea water only reached the chest, and half of the body was still exposed above the water. Looking down from the trestle, Ru Xi, who had no limbs, was like a long eggplant, straight into the water.
"Why...... Why won't God let me die! ”
The anger rushed and subsided in an instant, and Ru Xi thought sadly that she had forgotten that the sea had not yet risen to tide.
The will to die also dissipated, Ru Xi shook his head and broke out of the sand, and his body also poured into the water, if he had legs, the water should be only knee-deep, and he couldn't die.
"If you can't die, then let's live, my son is gone, what else is there?"
Ru Xi thought in confusion, and at this time, a strong impulse overflowed her whole body, Fushou ointment, she wanted to smoke Fushou ointment.
The Yinghua government did not raise her for nothing, relying on cooperation with the National History Museum to explain the state decisions of the old Qing Dynasty and the secret affairs of the palace, Ru Xi also has a number of inputs every month. And she used all these items to buy the best Fushou ointment, only Fushou ointment can make her forget the pain of her disability, as well as the desolation of her ambition and her parents and children.
"Go back and have a good ......"
The son is dead, maybe he has drunk enough Fushou ointment, and he can go out of his body and meet his son?
Ru Xi subconsciously wanted to sit up from the water, and in addition to the Fushou cream, she also remembered more things to do, such as...... See Hongli, meet Li Shi.
Yes, Yinzhen is dead, her son Yongqi is dead, and her sister Ru An is dead, but she still has people in the world, and there are two men, how can she remember her.
In contrast, Hongli has only intersected, but she and Li Shi have intersected hearts, she used to be the person who knew Li Xi the most in the world, at least the first to understand Li Shi. She wanted to meet Li Shi, maybe she could win his mercy, even if it was just a sigh, she was satisfied.
Ru Xi no longer wanted to die, but gave birth to a strong desire to live, but this subconscious movement did not react, and the whole body was still soaked in knee-deep seawater. Because of this movement, her mouth opened subconsciously, and a mouthful of seawater poured into her throat, choking her and rolling her eyes.
Damn, how can she sit up without arms and legs!?
Ru Xi panicked, screaming for help, but stretched his neck, his head still couldn't come out of the water, and he only spit out blisters.
"No, I don't want to die!"
After a few mouthfuls of seawater, Ru Xi's eyes rolled and his consciousness was confused, so he only shouted in his heart.
Under the trestle, the sea is bubbling and churning, and a figure is swaying its head underwater, but it never emerges from the water, looking like a sea turtle wrapped in clothes at first glance.
After a while, the bubbles gradually thinned, and when the last bubble came out, the evening tide began to ripple slightly, and the figure was pushed by the tide, gradually leaving the trestle and sinking into the endless ocean.
