Wang Yi's wedding is also a big event in the Northeast, after letting Li Yuzhen go to the guest room to rest, he returned to the room to discuss the marriage with Shen Yazhi and others, a few girls were a little shy at first, but then thought that after all, it was a major event in their own lives, and it couldn't be now when they were reserved, so they said their opinions. One by one, one by one, Wang Yi heard that his head was a little big, he was too troublesome at first, but then he thought about it, let them go!

When Wang Yi was upset, someone was more upset than him.

Emperor Meiji has been unable to sleep and eat these days, although he still looks unfazed in front of his courtiers, but his inner anxiety makes his temper a little irritable. Standing in front of the mirror, he looked at his tongue, the thick tongue coating showed that the stomach was extremely hot, no wonder he had been drinking water recently, but he was still thirsty.

"At the age of thirty-six, I have gray hair, and even the corners of my eyes are wrinkled." Emperor Meiji put his hands in the sleeves of his robe and clenched into fists with a slight force. Although you are the emperor, your life is also full of helplessness. Of course, the source of his biggest trouble now is the Northeast Autonomous Region, which is Wang Yi, a powerful opponent he never thought of.

"King, all the ministers have arrived." The waiter bowed at this time.

Emperor Meiji waved his hand, the attendants withdrew, and the room became quiet again. Emperor Meiji knelt under the rising sun, his eyes slightly closed, and he took a deep breath to feel the warmth of the warm sun. In front of you is the verdant and tranquil Japanese garden, where long bamboo pipes draw clear spring water from the mountain, and when you come to the garden, you fall into the water, fill it, and flow out. Bamboo knocks on the stone, driven in the quiet, and there is still in the movement, to the point that there is a bit of cicada noise forest over the quiet, and the birdsong mountain is more secluded. (Tian Shui, also known as Sandu, was originally a kind of agricultural tool that used to store a certain amount of running water to transfer the balance between the two ends of the bamboo tube, and then a section of the bamboo tube struck the stone to make a sound, which was used to disturb the birds and wild boars that fell into the field.) However, in the Japanese garden, a landscape design gradually took shape, and the sound of bamboo was transformed into a purifying expression of the soul through the two pure symbols of bamboo and water, bringing out a bit of Zen. This thing is very common in Japanese dramas and Japanese comics, and it is also available in the Celestial Empire. ）

More than ten minutes is not a long time, but it is not a short time, and Emperor Meiji's heart finally calmed down.

The officials who came to the meeting today were all present, probably due to the influence and oppression of the Tohoku Autonomous Region, and with the exception of Hirobumi Ito, the prime minister, the personnel in the cabinet are different from those in history. One of the biggest changes is that the Minister of Foreign Affairs has changed from the original Inoue Shin to Shigenobu Okuma in advance. The Minister of Agriculture and Commerce was changed from Tanigan Castle to Kuroda Kiyotaka.

Aritomo Yamaguchi was the Minister of the Interior, with the rank of lieutenant general in the army, who held the General Staff Headquarters, which the government and the Japanese Diet had no power to intervene in, and was responsible only to the emperor himself, and who called for the spirit of bushido, and was a representative of Japanese militarism. The Minister of Finance, that is, the Minister of Finance, is Matsukata Matsukata. The Minister of War is Oyama Iwa, and the Minister of the Navy is Saigo Komichi. The Minister of Justice is Yamada Hideyoshi, the Minister of Culture is Mori Yuri, and the Minister of Escape is Tang Shaoyi's old acquaintance Enomoto Takeyang in Beijing, who is in charge of postal affairs. In addition, there are two more important official positions, one is Mitsuhiro Tanaka, the chief cabinet secretary, and the other is Yotsuzo Yamao, director of the Legislative Affairs Bureau.

A large group of people sat there, and it was obviously impossible if there was no intrigue between them, but today it was harmonious. The reason for this is that the radical members of the Genyosha have planned to attack Ezo, the territory of the Tohoku Autonomous Region, that is, Hokkaido. The Northeast Autonomous Region and Japan have not only overturned the previous treaty signed by the two sides on the temporary suspension of troops in Hokkaido, but also the North Sea Fleet, which is subordinate to the Northeast Home Fleet, has begun to conduct large-scale live-fire exercises at sea. The target of the attack exercise was an indiscriminate shelling of Japanese ships in the Tsugaru Strait between Japan and Hokkaido in retaliation for Japan's aggression against Ezo.

"What do you think about this matter?" Emperor Meiji asked in a low voice. There was no expression on his face, just his eyelids drooping, making it impossible to figure out what he was thinking.

Everyone fell silent, and for a moment no one answered.

After a long time, Emperor Meiji suddenly raised his eyebrows, then slapped the table in front of him, and said loudly and angrily: "Speak!" The warm state of mind that he had cultivated before he came was now gone, and all the cabinet members present were sitting upright. They all bowed their heads when they heard the emperor's angry voice, much like a flock of lambs waiting to be slaughtered.

Prime Minister Hirobumi Ito, as cabinet minister, could not help but speak at this time, but when he was about to speak, Foreign Minister Shigenobu Okuma unexpectedly opened his mouth first.

"Wang, we have now got the latest news about the Northeast Autonomous Region." The words quickly caught everyone's attention.

In the past, because the Liberal Party and the Reform Party were opposed to each other, the left wing of the Liberal Party caused the Fukushima Incident, the Takada Incident, the Gunma Incident, and the Kapo Mountain Incident, which made the government take more and more severe repressive measures against it. In 1884, the Liberal Party was ordered to dissolve, and although the Reform Party was not dissolved, in December of the same year, the Reform's vice presidents, Shigenobu Okuma and Toshikama Kono, announced their resignation from the party at the same time. Later, due to the deep pressure brought by the northeast, Japan began the historical process of political reform ahead of schedule, promulgated a new constitution, Ito Hirobumi formed a cabinet, and Shigenobu Okuma entered the cabinet because he took off his political party background, otherwise before 1898, any member of a political party was forbidden to join the cabinet.

"The Northeast Insurance Team suddenly launched a large-scale offensive against Russia two days ago, and in just one day, it wiped out two divisions of the Russian army, and the fighting between the two sides is currently fierce."

Everyone looked at each other somewhat puzzled, not understanding the purpose of Shigenobu Okuma's current statement. Youpeng in Shishan County reacted and said, "Could it be that the Northeast took advantage of the tension between us and made the Russians make a wrong judgment?" ”

Okuma nodded.

Seeing the foreign minister's statement, the atmosphere of the meeting seemed somewhat relaxed, but Emperor Meiji frowned slightly.

"So, it is likely that the Northeast's previous tough statements against us were an excuse for them to let the Russians let their guard down?" Matsukata asked. "They have no intention of going to war with us?" Of course, his primary concern as finance minister was the finances of the empire, and in the current situation, Japan simply could not afford a full-scale war with Tohoku.

Ito Hirobumi finally opened his mouth at this time and said: "We all know the temperament of the people in the Northeast, although we are just an excuse created by them to hide their surprise attack on Russia, but this does not mean that we are safe." Guys, look, they are now openly stationing troops in Hokkaido and blocking the Tsugaru Strait. ”

PS: Recently, the home side has been affected by the renovation and overhaul of the factory, and there are frequent power and water outages, and yesterday was another day, and this chapter is to make up for yesterday.
