After Ren Chao left Jingren Palace, Yu Kun had already received the news at this time, and hurried over, "Dashuai, that Emperor Guangxu doesn't know what to do, he actually wants to harm Dashuai, why didn't Dashuai take this opportunity to kill Guangxu, and then ascend the throne and call the emperor and change the dynasty." ”

Ren Chao smiled slightly, "I have killed many people in my life, but I really haven't killed the emperor, so I was a little soft for a while." What's more, I remember that Emperor Guangxu was not thin to me at the beginning, and he was an official and a knight, and he was married, if it weren't for him, I might not have been able to marry Xue'er, a beautiful and virtuous wife, and now Xue'er is pregnant and about to give birth, so I should accumulate some yin virtue for the soon-to-be-born child! I'll spare his life for the time being. ”

After that, according to the will of Emperor Guangxu, Ren Chaojin was crowned King of Han. However, the turmoil caused by this incident did not calm down, and officials from all over the country and even cabinet officials ran to Ren Chao to persuade him. There are many people who directly wrote to Emperor Guangxu, asking Emperor Guangxu to abdicate and make way for Xian, and Zen is located in Ren Chao.

Newspapers in various parts of the country have also published relevant articles, saying that officials and people from all over the country have written to the Qing court, asking the Qing emperor to abdicate, and Emperor Guangxu Shuntian has promised the Zen position to Ren Chao, just waiting for a suitable opportunity to abdicate, taking the opportunity to make a big noise.

In December 1901, Emperor Guangxu officially issued an edict of abdication, and Chan was located in Ren Chao. The Qing Dynasty fell, and the state lasted for 256 years. (1636~1901, from the Great Liquidation of the Emperor Taiji in 1636).

On January 1, 1902, Ren Chao officially ascended the throne as emperor, named the country Huaxia Empire, and changed the name to Shengwu. Emperor Shengwu ascended the throne and immediately granted amnesty to the world.

Emperor Guangxu since that palace coup. Angry and sick. The night after he was forced to issue an edict of abdication, he fell ill and died in Jingren Palace. After Ren Chao ascended the throne. He was posthumously crowned as the king of the Qing Dynasty and buried heavily.

"Long live my emperor, long live, long live!" When Ren Chao sat on the top of the Jinluan Hall to accept the worship of hundreds of officials, he couldn't help but feel lonely, although Ren Chao had already decreed that the new dynasty would abolish the great gift of kneeling. But when he saw the civil and military officials sitting down, bowing down one by one and shouting long live, Ren Chao still felt the loneliness of the emperor in a high position. At this time, Ren Chao also realized what it means to be alone.

Ren Chao ascended the throne as emperor, although he was supported by all the people, but there were also many people who jumped out against Ren Chao, most of whom were former ministers of the Qing Dynasty. Treat these people. Ren Chao naturally will not be soft, and under Ren Chao's policy of carrots and sticks, the domestic situation will soon stabilize.

In the study room of the Qianqing Palace, Ren Chao summoned Tang Xinghan, Prime Minister of the Cabinet, Yang Jichang, Minister of War, Yu Kun, Minister of the Navy, and Liang Yan, Minister of Foreign Affairs.

"Initiation of the Majesty. In recent days, there have been a series of clashes between DPRK and Japanese fishing boats, and yesterday there was also a skirmish between the DPRK fleet and the Japanese fleet. The Japanese Government lodged a solemn protest against this to our empire. It is hoped that the empire will be able to restrain Korea and refrain from violating Japan's territorial waters. Foreign Minister Liang Yan took the lead.

Ren Chao nodded slightly, now that North Korea is under Ren Chao's strong support, its national strength is growing, and with the strong backing of Huaxia, it is naturally more unscrupulous. The DPRK and Japan already have an old enmity, so with the growing strength of Korea, the Koreans have continued to invade Japan's waters in recent years. However, how could the Japanese, who have always been arrogant, be patient in the face of the provocations of the Koreans, so some conflicts broke out between the two sides from time to time. The Japanese also know that the reason why the Koreans are so arrogant is nothing more than that they have Huaxia behind them, so every time this kind of thing happens, the Japanese government will protest to Huaxia. Ren Chao has always ignored this, and even secretly encouraged North Korea, so the North Koreans became even more unscrupulous.

Ren Chao thought for a while and said, "In the past few years, the Japanese government has been focusing on development, and its national strength has basically been completely restored, even stronger than before the First Sino-Japanese War!" Although it does not pose any threat to our Huaxia, Japan is too close to us, and the two countries have formed an indissoluble enmity, so we absolutely do not allow such a potential threat, and it is still under our noses! ”

"What does your majesty mean to use troops against Japan?" Tang Xinghan hurriedly asked.

"Not bad! Japan is like a grain of sand, although it is insignificant to us in China. But maybe one day the east wind will blow into our eyes and cause us some trouble. In order to get rid of this scourge once and for all, it is better to do your best to get rid of this scourge! Moreover, our troops, since the reorganization, have not experienced a major battle formation for several years, and soldiers who have not experienced the tempering of the battlefield will never be able to become an elite soldier, so we can also take this opportunity to train new soldiers. In addition, at the beginning of the empire, there were still some pedantic and stubborn people in the country, and we could take this opportunity to divert the attention of the country. Let the people of the country take a good look, my Chinese Empire is a hundred times stronger than the Qing Dynasty. ”

"Emperor Shengming, how does the emperor plan to fight this battle?" Yang Jichang hurriedly asked.

"This matter started because of North Korea, so let the North Koreans go and charge us first!" Ren Chao said casually.

"Wechen understands!" Yang Jichang hurriedly said when he heard this.

At this time, the North Korean government was controlled by Jeon Hyun-joon, and Jeon Hyun-joon was obedient to Ren Supernatural. At the instigation of Huaxia, in July 1902, the Korean fleet invaded Japanese waters again, and immediately encountered the Japanese patrol fleet, and fierce fighting broke out between the two sides again. In this naval battle, a small ship of several hundred tons was sunk on the North Korean side.

The DPRK side then used this as an excuse to demand that the Japanese government severely punish the perpetrators and compensate the DPRK side for its losses, totaling 10 million taels of silver! In the face of the DPRK Government's blackmail, the Japanese Government, of course, would not agree, and immediately and categorically rejected the DPRK Government's rude demands. Subsequently, the North Korean government declared war on Japan in this name.

The Japanese government lodged a strong protest against this, but the Chinese Empire ignored it. The Japanese government had no choice but to be forced to fight.

At this time, the Japanese government was most afraid that the Chinese Empire would directly participate in the war, but after the outbreak of the war, the Chinese Empire never had the intention of directly sending troops, which made the Japanese government feel relieved. The Japanese government erroneously believed that Ren Chao had just become emperor and that the domestic situation was unstable, and Ren Chao was not ready to go all out to start a war with Japan. So the Japanese government decided to teach these Koreans a good lesson. (To be continued......)
