Chapter 796: Hirobumi Ito is in the ZN Sea

In the night, the gate of ZN Sea was open, and a car slowly drove out of it. The square in front of the palace gate is as bright as day, and the license plate of the car is clearly visible - country 00078. This is the royal family's car.

There are no more than 1,000 cars in the whole of China, and the first 100 of them belong to the royal family. Although it is very likely that it will only be a ceremonial VIP car after the 50th, it is also extremely honorable to be received by such a car. Through the clear window, the Chinese soldiers guarding the gate of the palace saw a very old man sitting in the back seat of the car. He was about fifty or sixty years old, his hair was half bald, and he had a gray beard. This group of 'Ouchi guards' who had changed guards at dusk did not know that at three o'clock this afternoon, the old man in front of him entered the palace in the special car of His Royal Highness the Prince, in other words, he was personally greeted by His Royal Highness the Prince.

Although he didn't know who the person in front of him was, the posture of this person sitting in the back seat with a red face was quite temperamental. After checking the driver's ID and another letter of responsibility, the gate was cleared, and the driver drove the guests quickly to a high-end Japanese-style hotel, the residence of the Japanese government delegation in China.

The driver speaks fluent Japanese, the old man can Chinese, in the afternoon with the emperor and the crown prince, in the evening reception of the imperial banquet, the old man can speak fluently and standard Chinese. As a matter of courtesy, the chauffeur of the Imperial Family who sent people back was able to speak fluent Tokyo, Japan.

"Your Excellency, the Sakura Hotel is almost here. Do you park in front of the hotel, or go straight to the back door of the hotel? ”

"Zhang Sang. Please stop in front of the hotel. I've seen my companions. ”

The old man's face was red, and that was the reason for drinking a few more glasses of wine, not because he was received by the Chinese royal family. I've been excited until now. Hirobumi Ito is also a figure who has been the prime minister of a country, even when he first received the invitation. He did get excited for a while, but that had long since subsided.

The car with the national license plate is parked in front of the gate of the Sakura Hotel, and under the illumination of the lights, this royal super-light car designed by the emperor himself exudes a different kind of charm.

His Majesty the Emperor of China has always represented the people of the world, and this compliment from The Times is not casual. The second great development of the world's automobile industry was brought about by the birth of China's Royal Chaoguang Automobile. This is exactly the same appearance as Poussin in later generations, which is too much in line with the aesthetics of Eastern and Western people.

The car door opened, and Hirobumi Ito, 60 years old, was arrested two years ago due to the budget and the land tax reduction bill. Hirobumi Ito, who was ousted by members of the Liberal and Progressive parties of the Diet, stepped out of the car steadily. His face was flushed, and his face, which was red from drinking, was hit by the light, and it was even more 'overflowing'.

"Your Excellency!"

"Your Excellency......"

A group of people who had been waiting in the hotel lobby for a long time rushed over and surrounded Hirobumi Ito, who had just gotten off the bus. Some of these people were the leaders of the delegation, and the other were the descendants of Ito Hirobumi.

Since stepping down, Ito has lamented that "mercenaries are unreliable, and they must have their own Imperial Guards." Therefore, after resigning as prime minister, he ignored the opposition of Emperor Meiji and several other senators. At the expense of resigning from the official position, he also wanted to build a political party with his own hands. Therefore, a large part of the population was called upon to follow him.

Ito Hirobumi came to Beijing only to meet with Takamori Saigo, who was also going to Beijing, and he was on the mission of the Meiji government. Informal contact with Saigo Takamori is required. It can be said that it has sent a signal of peace between the North and the South.

As a result, even he didn't expect that he would be treated so highly. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince greeted him in person, and the Emperor received him. After receiving the invitation yesterday afternoon, I remembered that the Chinese emperor had not received Saigo Takamori before. Hirobumi Ito couldn't help but feel surging in his heart.

Hirobumi Ito said a lot at this afternoon's meeting, and Liu Xian saw with his own eyes this historical Chinese enemy. He was also asked for his views on the current situation in China. Ito Hirofumi is worthy of being a firm constitutionalist, and Liu Xian's attitude has not changed at all. For the current situation in China. He also expressed his own views, and what made Liu Xian very happy was that these views were all about political ideas and political systems, rather than China's real 'mistakes' that he did not recognize.

Ito Hirobumi has great respect for Emperor Liu, who was only half a year wrong with him. Leading East Asia, leading the yellow race, and going to the top of the world seems to be the dream of Hirobumi Ito when he was young.

In Ito's eyes, as long as China develops and grows, as long as it takes another ten years to consolidate it, the foundation of the empire will be unbreakable. This made Liu Xian very happy. The praise sung by the enemy is really pleasing to the ear! Although the little devils have long been out of the category of China's enemies.

Ito Hirobumi was very frank and told Liu Siam about the original Meiji government's intentions and psychology. Connect with the West, fight against China, and ensure Japan's own independence and self-determination.

Liu Xian asked: "Doesn't Japan have the idea of having ambitions for Korea and China?" ”

"Yes!" Hirofumi Ito said unabashedly. "But after the Second Sino-Russian War, this idea was completely abandoned by me."

"From that time on, the strength of China, especially the strength of the army, was no longer coveted by Japan. But we still have not given up our ambitions for the DPRK. ”

After all, the scale of the Second Sino-Russian War was still small, and Tokyo Japan had only one way to go at that time, and they had to hold on to hope that by the time of the Third Sino-Russian War, China would suffer heavy losses or suffer defeat. In that case, Tokyo Japan would be able to claim its interests against the ridiculous country of Korea by relying on its relatively strong army forces.

In Ito's eyes, the countries of the world, except for the distant and barbaric black Africa, North Korea is a stupid country of the first class. In the 70s, under the threat of Japan and Tsarist Russia, there was an intention for political reform. But in the eighties, especially after the Russian threat had greatly diminished, the political struggle within the country, conservatism once again prevailed over innovation.

"I can only rejoice that this stupid country has the protection of you, the Great Emperor. Otherwise, it will completely fall prey to Westerners and our great Japan! ”

"A prey that has no power to fight back!"

Ito Hirobumi believes that Emperor Liu himself bears a certain responsibility for the depravity and stupidity of the Koreans. China protected North Korea too well, and Emperor Liu even married his princess to the crown prince of North Korea, which gave the North Koreans a talisman that could not be changed. They felt that they were completely free of external threats, and that the impetus for social reform was immediately empty.

Throughout history, there have been countless political reforms, whether in China or abroad, and one of the most important reasons is that the rule of the regime itself has been greatly threatened. The biggest threat to Korea, the Westerners and Japan, has been neutralized by China, and all strata naturally have no motivation. Because reform means a change in interests, and the two classes of North Korea, the royal family, nobles, and scholars are already the largest holders of North Korean interests, if they can not set off reform, they will never let the reform happen.

Looking at the political arena in North Korea, why did so many disciples and aristocrats who entered the Enlightenment faction withdraw one after another, or even fight back? The defeat of the struggle between the civilians and the conservatives was also largely due to the division of their own forces. That's why.

Ito Hirobumi mercilessly belittled North Korea as a hopeless country in front of Liu Xian, a nation that has fallen to the bottom of the world. Ito Hirobumi didn't know that on the other side of his wall, the crown prince of North Korea, Li Yin, the third son-in-law of Liu Xian, was hating him to the point that his teeth were itching. Li Yin sat beside the eldest daughter of Ming Guifei Wang Biyun, the third princess of Liu Xian, who was holding her husband's hand and comforting her warmly.

This is something Ito Hirobumi never expected. So at the opening ceremony a few days later, he showed a kind smile to the crown prince of Joseon. Li Yin, who is not a three-year-old child, has all his unhappiness written on his face, and shows due respect for Ito Hirofumi. And they and Saigo Takamori attended the opening ceremony, and they all had a common identity - invited guests of the conference.

Unlike the Paris Olympics, all the competitions will be completed in 22 days. There are enough sports venues in Beijing for athletes to use, and the organizing committee has made detailed and thoughtful arrangements for the competition process. Compact but not excessive!

Liu Xian did not attend, and only let the crown prince be the representative. Many Western media have also specifically mentioned this, and China's crown prince has appeared more and more in front of the media cameras in the past two years. Does this have a different intention? There is nothing to add oil and vinegar to it. Liu Xian just sneered after seeing it. This kind of bullshit article can be published openly and honestly, and it is a first-class newspaper in Europe, and foreigners are really poor in donkey skills.

"Your Majesty, the average attendance of spectators in the seven sports of equestrian, football, basketball, kickboxing, tennis, shooting, and archery is over 80 per cent, with all competitions in football, equestrian and kickboxing being 100 per cent full. The lowest attendance was in cycling, gymnastics, ......"

After a wonderful opening ceremony of the World Games, all the events entered the competition stage. China is very wealthy and printed the video, and the results of the game are as fair as possible.

Liu Xian is concerned about the audience participation of various events. The greater the number of spectators, the brighter the future of the sports industry and the extent to which Beijing has developed. Because it was now in 1900, it was still an era of underdeveloped materials, and being able to have spare money to watch the game at least proved that they did not have to worry about eating and drinking.

In addition, the flow of people to Beijing during this period of time has also increased significantly, of course, this number is far from being compared with the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games, but it has also prospered Beijing's tourism industry to a certain extent, and has a great stimulating effect on all walks of life. Liu Xian looked at the statistics, and then thought of the income from selling advertisements to be added, even if the finances of this World Games were going to lose money, they would not lose all the money!
