Chapter 37: The Queen Mother's Decision (Ask for Recommendation)

"This Tang Ziran is really amazing!"

But as soon as he entered the yamen, Xu Chang shouted:

"Now there are a few people in the whole country who don't know his Tang Ziran's name, Zhang Zhidong used to be famous for him, and now it's okay, even the emperor is famous for him, is it possible that our Qing Kingdom is really a foreigner!"

"That's not what I said!"

King Qing, who finally came to the Prime Minister's Yamen, said casually:

"This change has existed since ancient times, if there is no Shang Ying change, how can it be as strong as the Qin State."

"Don't change the law into a Han world, kick our flag people aside."

"That ......"

King Qing's voice was extremely heavy, but he was immediately deflated and dragged out a long tail note. He wanted to say the same thing.

"Then you don't change! When the foreign devils come to the door again, you will be the ones who will stand up to it? ”

This is an angry idea for a while, and before the words come to his mouth, he knows that he can't say so, and he cuts it off so that he has this strange tone.

"Lord Wang!"

Sun Yuwen spoke on the side.

"Actually, I think it would be good if this new policy was tried in a place, after all, when Emperor Sejong did, didn't he also change the law? Without Emperor Sejong's changes, how could we have a hundred years of prosperity in the Qing Dynasty! ”

King Qing listened to Sun Yuwen's words, but he couldn't stop nodding, a month ago, when Sheng Xuanhuai was looking for him, he still had to think about how to release him Tang Haoran, where to put it, other people are young and shallow, how to put it is not appropriate, is it easy to release a provincial governor? Even thinking that it really can't be done, if you send it to Xinjiang, anyway, you have to deal with Russia there, which can naturally come in handy, and later even thought that if there are still people who oppose the release of Xinjiang, find a reason, transfer Yuan Shikai back, and let Tang Haoran go to North Korea, and that place can be regarded as an outlet.

When he was in trouble, Tang Haoran's book "The Danger of the Prosperous Age" came out, coupled with the praise of the Qingliu Party for the new policy, it immediately solved the difficulty of King Qing, Taiwan, well, this is also a good place, in the eyes of the Manchu Dynasty, Taiwan is even inferior to Xinjiang, Taiwan is an authentic foreign place, even Liu Mingchuan was born in the military, but he was in office in Taiwan for a few years, and he also lay on the couch, besides, that place is lonely overseas, and the trial of the new policy is a mess, and the court is easy to clean up, is nothing more than taking off Tang Haoran's top, and when the time comes, he may be able to sell his favor to Li Hongzhang again.

When even said.

"Isn't this the reason, when the Grandmaster Shi was in Henan, he also tried it out. That Taiwan is a foreign land, and hysteria is rampant, it is not a good place, the new deal of changing the law, Liu Mingchuan has also done it, but it is just unlawful, let's see how Tang Haoran, who is known as the first in Zhiyang, changes the law, maybe, what good things can really be conjured! ”

"The law of the ancestors must be kept!"

Xu Chang quickly replied, no wonder, as a banner man, the last thing he wants to see are those Xinjiang ministers who rely on foreign affairs, one by one they don't take the court seriously, but the court still relies on them. Now it's good, and there is another person who has not yet tied his hair and wants to change some law and implement some new policy.

"The Law of the Ancestors?"

Liao Shouheng on the side also spoke very quickly, and said sarcastically:

"The ancestors didn't have foreign devils knocking on the door, if our Great Qing Kingdom didn't think about change, if foreign devils came to the door, when the time came, what would they do to stop them? If the French had sent tens of thousands of troops, what would we have done to stop them! ”

"At the beginning, at the beginning,"

Xu Chang said with confidence.

"We don't have Beiyang now! The foreigners all think that our Beiyang is doing a good job, and we will be able to block it when the time comes. ”

King Qing smiled silently. This Fu Yi smiled very contemptuously, and Xu Chang was of course very uncomfortable in his heart. However, he didn't dare to provoke King Qing, but he obviously forgot that Beiyang was also done by the Xinjiang ministers he despised.

"Anyway, this matter is in the limelight now, let's wait for now."

After a pause, King Qing said in an extremely calm tone.

"Waiting for the emperor and the queen mother to have any ideas, we are courtiers to share the emperor's worries, besides, in this place, there are people who support the trial of the new deal, this foreigner wolf is ambitious, in the past few years, he has taken care of the battle in the past few years, but he can't look back and keep it even!"

King Qing's words made Xu Chang feel stinging, and he looked a little annoyed and angry!

"King Qing, don't grow the ambition of others and destroy your own prestige. That foreign devil is also a human being, if we fight with the country's troops, we can't beat them, and we have to do some new deal! I see, this new deal is to make the ancestors into the law gone! ”

King Qing felt that his words were harsh and unpleasant, so he moved another big hat.

"Is there still Yi Zhi over there?"

"If you have a will, you ......."

Xu Chang suddenly stopped talking.

Although it is only half a sentence, the few words that have not been finished can be guessed from the tone, which is "no" or "does not work". King Qing was shocked, thinking in his heart that Xu Chang was going to openly resist the decree! Who is this man...... Ay.

At this moment, I suddenly heard a communication outside the door.

"Yi Zhi has arrived!"

Although the emperor has been in charge since last year, and Cixi has also lived in Ningshou Palace, in fact, anyone can understand that the queen mother lives in Ningshou Palace, which means that she still has to manage the government, but it is no longer clearly managed, but it will always be used to meddle in the government in the name of King Alcohol and King Qing, which is also a well-known thing in the court.

In the past few days, various voices in the court and the central government have been talking about the new policy, and naturally they can't hide it from the queen mother, no, the court is making a fuss, and the queen mother here has a will to summon the king of alcohol and the king of Qing.

Since King Alcohol and the Emperor are father and son, there is some inconvenience in etiquette, so when King Alcohol is summoned, the Emperor Xiang is not present, which is obviously not allowed to involve the emperor.

"The emperor is twenty years old this year, and he reads well."

The Empress Dowager Cixi looked at King Alcohol and said:

"I also know that this national affair is not easy, so don't start a new deal."

The Queen Mother's words surprised King Alcohol, I don't know what the Queen Mother thinks, where do you dare to speak lightly? But I can't help but say it, and then I think of reasons and echo at the same time.

"How difficult the current affairs are, it all depends on the queen mother, and the emperor is still young and can't afford to carry this burden. Besides, there is no end to learning, and without the protection of the Queen Mother, I don't know what this situation will become. ”

Halfway through his speech, he didn't know how to say any more, he was originally clumsy, he had always been a habit that he had not assertive, and had developed over the years. was in confusion, and he listened to King Qing's rare relief for him.

"The Queen Mother, according to the minister, the emperor wants to do this new policy, and that is also the Queen Mother's teaching!"

As soon as King Qing said this, not only King Alcohol felt surprised, but even Cixi was deeply surprised, this King Qing would never interject this sentence, and she didn't know that the reason why King Qing said this was for another matter.

"The Queen Mother, when the Queen Mother advocated foreign affairs, didn't the courtiers also talk nonsense, and now the emperor is thinking about a new policy, isn't it all about learning from the Queen Mother, in the final analysis, it is still the Queen Mother You teach well, otherwise, how can the emperor know the crisis of the country so quickly."

King Qing's words made King Alcohol's back break out in a cold sweat.

"The emperor is still young, and the queen mother still needs to take care of this government, according to the ministers, this new policy can't be done!"

After speaking, the alcohol king kowtowed, still unable to kneel. I'm afraid that I will be annoyed by the Queen Mother because of this new deal.

"Look at you, Lao Qi, I didn't say that this new deal can't be done."

Looking at King Alcohol's frightened appearance, the Empress Dowager Cixi turned her face and said to King Qing:

"You say, can this new deal be done or not."

"The queen mother's words, the minister is really embarrassed. is always incompetent and incompetent, and the queen mother has been worried everywhere in the past few years. At present, government affairs are gradually improving, it is the critical juncture of peeling and recovering, this new policy, according to the minister's view, does have to be done, that "The Danger of the Prosperous Age" has been mentioned, the danger of the dynasty is outside, not inside, these years in the prime minister's yamen and Westerners dealing, the minister knows, this foreign devil looks like a person, but all of them are wolf ambitions, Bao Qi will still want to bite on our Qing Dynasty, the minister looked, the emperor also understood this truth, only wanted to do this new policy, so as not to let the foreigners come to the door again. ”

"So, this new deal is going to be done?"

Cixi pondered for a moment, then continued.

"The New Deal, in fact, is not a big deal,"

This is really not a thing, in Cixi's opinion, just like King Qing said, that is, the emperor saw that he was a quasi-Xinjiang official in the past, so he got up, and there was nothing in the way, and the reason why he asked this is not that she cares about the new policy, but because this matter is making a fuss for a while, she can't help but ask, if she doesn't ask, the outside may forget about her, the queen mother.

"These Westerners, indeed all wolf ambitions, none of them are worry-free, even Oriental people, these days, don't they also follow the same example to find trouble with our Great Qing Kingdom, hey, it's really difficult for the emperor in the past two years!"

"It is really the sin of your subordinates to worry about the queen mother!"

When King Alcohol and King Qing heard this, they hurriedly knelt down again to plead guilty, but Cixi waved her hand and looked at the two of them and said.

"As for the New Deal, let's wait and see. Alright, you two kneel in peace. ”

Almost as soon as he left the palace, King Alcohol said to King Qing.

"Thank you so much."

This will, he and King Qing looked at King Alcohol, but said with a smile.

"I said, Lord Wang, you were also frightened by the Queen Mother just now, if the Queen Mother really didn't allow the new deal, it is estimated that she would have made a will a long time ago, besides, it's not all a shadowless thing now."

The alcohol king hesitated, unable to answer, and hesitated for a while before speaking.

"So, then look at this new policy, the Queen Mother is really allowed to do it?"

If it is approved, then he will have to go back and inform Master Weng, no matter what, the current emperor is his son.

"The Queen Mother's thoughts, how can you and I guess,"

King Qing said in a low voice.

"But I see, this thing should be almost ...... score"

There is a spectrum, although there is no talent, but in terms of understanding the Queen Mother's mind, he knows better than anyone else, if the Queen Mother is unwilling to do something, it is estimated that she will find out early in the morning, and she will ask herself, that is, the King of Alcohol, as soon as the Queen Mother asked, she was scared as if she couldn't find her soul, and it seemed that Sheng Xuanhuai's silver was down-to-earth......
