The family is poor and filial sons, and the country is difficult to show loyalty; The wind knows the strength of the grass, and the fire refines the real gold. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

This is true, but what is a loyal servant? The definition of loyal ministers and traitors in this history book is clear, and the people's hearts are also clear, that Yue Wumu is a loyal minister, that Qin Hui is a traitorous minister, that is Fan Wencheng and others who helped me to settle the Central Plains, and put it in the eyes of the children of the Eight Banners, that is also a big ...... Well, traitor.

But in any case, whether this traitor or a loyal minister, it always changes with the times, just like when Yuan Chonghuan was a traitor in the previous dynasty, but in the Ming history of the Great Qing Dynasty, he became a loyal minister, so whether it is a loyal minister or a traitor, there is always no certainty, today's traitor may be tomorrow's loyal minister, and vice versa.

Not to mention what a loyal minister is, anyway, there are no loyal ministers in the Qing Dynasty now, at least for those who are in the banner, there are no loyal ministers in this world except for the minions in the banner.

As for those Hanchens? All of them are "traitors and thieves", and all of them are "ill-intentioned".

When the Dao thunder hit in the air, some tea guests in the teahouse muttered in their hearts, why didn't this thunder kill that Li Er! Why is this god so short-sighted? For these tea guests who were born with landed silver, they cursed Tang Haoran in the past, but now the Beiyang minister is the "white-faced Cao" in their eyes, and he is the number one traitor in their eyes.

The reason is that it can't be done, it's all because of the will issued by the imperial court to conspire with "the ministers of the world to conspire with the ministers of the world", and what kind of "political meeting" to be held, anyway, it is the "Eight Governors to discuss politics", and the reason why the imperial court wants to hold this "political meeting" is not all forced by him Li Er. Even if there was no him, Li Er. Maybe there will be no Tang Haoran for him. After all, in the past two years, the surname Tang has relied on the support of the surname Li.

"Hey, what's wrong with this court, how can they let those Hanchen ride on the heads of our banner people like this!"

A sigh in the teahouse was immediately responded, and the people around were all deeply agreed, although these flag men usually didn't do anything. However, as soon as they heard that they were going to hold a political meeting and discuss state affairs with local governors and ministers, they suddenly became anxious, as if the world had been taken away by the Han people.

"Isn't this the reason, this Hanchen said that he is a minister, but in fact he is the slave of our minions, put it aside, the masters of the banner smoke the Hanchen military plane of the dynasty with a mouth, and the lawsuit will be brought to the emperor, that is, let the emperor reprimand a few words!"

Reminiscing about the glory of the past. These gentlemen who drink tea and walk around birds are all immersed in the glory of the old times. It seems that the Great Qing Kingdom of that meeting is their Great Qing Kingdom.

"Hey, look at this world, day by day is not as good as day by day, even these Han people are on an equal footing with our flag people!"

"You're beautiful, now those Han people are riding on the necks of our flag people and!"

"Hey, that's not the scourge that Long Hair will accumulate, if it weren't for those Han people who took the military power, and put aside the Holy Ancestor Emperor, they would dare!"

"Dare? You may have let the Holy Grandfather exterminate the Nine Clans! ”

"That's it, this Tang is about to hit Yuguan, our Beijing camp is not going to train the new army of the three towns, this time we can't let the Han people get the right to fight, guys, what's the matter, if you want to go to the new army?"

"Yes, Qing Ye, my body is bones, drinking tea and shopping, and I will go to the New Army...... You still have to have a strong body like you! ”

It's just a mention here, and the people who were originally very angry suddenly weakened, all of them were fighting and fighting and had never been soft, as for the real knives and guns, let's change them to others.

"My body looks strong, but the age is not here, a person who is forty, what kind of difference should he be? According to me, this god must open his eyes, you look at this thunder, maybe the next thunder will hit Tianjin Wei and dispel that Li Er! There's still our turn there! ”

Since the big guys are unwilling to be on errands, they naturally put their hopes on God, and when he said this, he immediately attracted a chorus.

"Isn't this the reason, this thief who has brought disaster to the country and the people is just a toad, sooner or later, one day, I have to let God accept it!"

When the "gentlemen in the flag" in the capital were thinking about when Na Lei would open up Li Er and accept the toad essence, Li Hongzhang, who was far away in Tianjin, was like holding a teacup steadily, drinking tea in the gazebo in the backyard of the governor's yamen, and the rain was sometimes blown into the pavilion by the wind and fell on Li Hongzhang's body, but he was drinking tea without moving, and it seemed that there was no rain at all in his eyes.

"The reason why I want to protect him Tang Haoran is not to make the court lose face, but to discuss the ...... of the political council."

Putting down the teacup in his hand, Li Hongzhang's words paused slightly, and his expression became solemn.

Now the imperial court has agreed to the request of the "governor's council", of course, in order to save the face of the imperial court, the "eight governors discuss politics" changed to the "council", the eight governors naturally will not go to the capital to discuss any politics, but by the eight governor-level feudal officials appointed cronies and Taoists as representatives of the eight places such as Zhili, Liangjiang, Huguang and other eight places to attend the "council".

Although on the surface, this council was only the assistance of the imperial court, and its power was far inferior to that of the Western parliament, in fact, for the first time since then, the local government had the right to speak in the center, and even could influence the center of the court, and in the future, the affairs of the Great Qing Kingdom were bound to be fully discussed.

And how to establish the authority of the "council," or how to make it not just an "ornament," is the only way to fire the first shot after the establishment of the council -- the disposition of Tang Haoran, or more precisely, the characterization of Tang Haoran's rebellion, whether it is rebellion, or whether it is on the side of the Qing monarch.

"Quan Shuai, do you mean to use this to show the court the prestige of the council?"

Zhang Peilun secretly admired Tang Haoran's luck in his heart, no matter how big a leak he caused, adults would never change their appreciation for him, which was difficult for even Zhang Zhidong, who had the grace to know him.

"It's not to show its prestige, but to tell the court that this council will never be at its mercy!"

Gently stroked his beard. Li Hongzhang looked at the ripples caused by the raindrops falling on the small lake.

"The imperial court's current intention is to let the eight governors contain each other. Now the council is 8 plus 3. Although there are 16 members of the council in this place, it is two people with one vote, and in the future, the government of this council will be decided by these 11 votes, and if the court is divided, it only needs to fight for three more votes from the local level, so that the council can be used by the court......"

The parliamentary council voted this is the whole story of Sheng Xuanhuai, although it is a bit redundant. However, it was agreed by Liu Kunyi and Zhang Zhidong, especially the appreciation of Yunnan, Guizhou, Shaanxi, Gansu and Sichuan, after all, it was located in a remote area, so as to ensure that the three places were on an equal footing with Zhili, Liangjiang, Huguang and other places in national politics. The vote of the councillor and the governor on his behalf is undoubtedly the foundation to ensure the power of the three places, Sheng Xuanhuai's abacus is fine, and the governors everywhere have also seen it, but the problem is that the court will not be willing to use it as an ornament? They will definitely do everything possible to make a fuss about this ticket.

"My lord, the court can move articles on the local side, but we can't make articles on the three quotas on the court side!"

The corners of Zhang Peilun's lips lifted slightly. If this council will do him any good, it is not that he will go to the capital to serve as a councillor. Even if it is the military aircraft of the current dynasty, it is only on an equal footing. This is only a superficial benefit, for the staff who are like this. I'm afraid that after the opening of the council, in fact, the semi-independence of the Zhili has been established from the name, and from now on, the matter of the Zhili will all belong to the Beiyang Yamen, and he is planning to take advantage of the selfishness of the eight governors to prepare to promote the "Beiyang of Zhili" in the Council, and how can he allow the imperial court to sabotage his plan, so he suggested softly.

"We have to force the imperial court to agree, and the appointment of at least one of these three places needs to be approved by the eight governors,"

Unlike the local governors who sent two Taoists to help each other and supervise each other as councilors, the imperial court only sent three councillors, but unlike the two local Taoists with one vote, they were one person with one vote, and the number of votes from 8 to 3 seemed to be stable, but in fact, everyone knew that these eight governors could not be united, and now they were just forming an alliance because of temporary benefits.

"As it should be!"

Nodding slightly, Li Hongzhang glanced at Zhang Peilun beside him and said.

"Youqiao, but this is only one of them, in addition to making a fuss about the quota, the most important thing is to let everyone understand that in the future, this council will be a tool for everyone to compete with the court!"

Standing up and walking to the pavilion, looking at the pieces of duckweed on the lake, Li Hongzhang's tone was slightly dark, and his face was also a little embarrassed.

"Now for the imperial court, the most important thing to kill is him Tang Haoran, so the old man wants to protect him, if everyone sees that the people who the court wants to kill but can't be saved by the council, then ......"

At that time, the face of the imperial court will naturally be lost, and at that time, the local governors will truly realize the power in their hands, and they will no longer be the members of the party appointed by the imperial court, but the powerful ministers who are in charge of the party.

Perhaps, this will lead to an unprecedented expansion of local forces, but for Li Hongzhang, this is the most in line with the current interests of the choice, now he not only needs to keep the glory and wealth of the Li family, but also has a group that he needs to be responsible for, as for the imperial court, from the time when the imperial court had a disagreement with him, he was very disappointed in that imperial court.

What's more, Li Hongzhang, who knows that the Beiyang Naval and Land Division is his greatest support, how can he allow the elite of the Naval and Land Division to fall into the hands of Tang Ziran, in contrast, the most in line with the interests of Beiyang now is to "recruit An", rather than obeying the orders of the imperial court and sweeping away the traitors to determine the world. But if you recruit peace, won't you attract another big enemy to Beiyang? Now Li Hongzhang is not so naïve as to think that Tang Ziran will be grateful to Lingling and willing to enter the Beiyang Gate, even if he is willing to enter the Beiyang, what can he give them? The current Tang Ziran is not the Tang Ziran of two years ago!

"But, how will he be placed Tang Haoran when the time comes?"

Zhang Peilun, who knew where the purpose of the adult was, hurriedly asked rhetorically, it is no problem to keep him Tang Haoran, but the problem is how to arrange this person after saving him Tang Haoran.

Zhang Peilun was not naïve enough to think that if the adult kept Tang Hao, he would take the ride to be the loyal dog of Beiyang, he Tang Haoran would not, and Beiyang could not tolerate this Buddha who was in charge of an army of 100,000, and on the other hand, Beiyang also needed this Buddha, and needed it to join forces with Beiyang, so that Zhili could firmly occupy the position of "the first governor in the world". so that the peeping person will not have a different heart.

Placement!

The reason why he wants to protect Tang Haoran, in addition to letting the court lose face, is more important than to introduce the Tang family, with the power of his 100,000 army to ensure local stability in the next few years, and only after the situation is stable, can he plan the next step, but if Tang Haoran is not satisfied, and then let the outside world see the opportunity, he will not be instigated by the imperial court, and may cause some trouble in the political meeting. For example, the governors of Huguang, Fujian and Zhejiang, who were born in the Qing River, were still too easy to be instigated by the imperial court.

If you want to keep him from acting rashly, the only way to keep Tang Haoran, a "reckless man" who can break the rules at any time, and leave him behind, not only can remind the court not to move, but also can use him to pierce the window paper at any time. Just like this time, if there is no Tang Haoran to punch him all the time, I am afraid that even if the big guy is unwilling, he can only be his loyal minister who loves Xinjueluo, even if he knows that he will definitely accept everyone's power in the future, he can only do so, whether it is Li Hongzhang himself or others, no one wants to be the first to stand up and be the "traitor".

What they can't do, Tang Haoran can do, this is exactly what Li Hongzhang needs, or what the future council needs, needs this person to break the face between the court and the local government at any time, someone starts, the big guy can eat meat, just like now.

"What do you think, apart from wanting the old man to keep him, what does he Tang Haoran want?"

What do you want?

What does Tang Haoran want? Although he vaguely guessed one or two, before he was sure, Zhang Peilun would rather rot that guess in his stomach. After a moment's thought, he replied.

"This ...... I'm afraid we won't know until he hits the capital! ”

Hit the capital, Li Hongzhang did not doubt this, in fact, even if he wanted to protect Tang Haoran, he also needed him to hit the capital, and only after he hit the capital could he force the court to make concessions in a panic.

"You, you...... is still so cautious, what is there to say, he Tang Ziran, what he wants is ......"

Nodding, Li Hongzhang glanced towards the north, and then sighed helplessly.

"It's Kanto!"
