In the morning and sunset, in the huge Forbidden City, the red wall and golden tiles are more and more magnificent, the layers of palaces, the height is staggered, the dragon is carved and the phoenix is painted, magnificent and magnificent, just like a fairyland on earth. ※※※※※ I ※ I ※ ※
In the imperial garden in the city, the breeze is gentle, the green trees are shady, between the covered bridges of the nine curves, the koi fish shuttle, the lotus is like a blue plate, and the red lotus flowers are inlaid in the meantime, which is delicate and gorgeous.
On the path surrounding the lotus pond, Emperor Guangxu was dressed in a golden dragon robe, with deep eyebrows. Behind him, Emperor Weng Tongsu followed closely with a small step, also with a bad face, no one thought that Li Mo, who had occupied the three northeastern provinces, would actually win again
What is unexpected is that this time his sailors not only knocked out more than a dozen Japanese ironclad giants that were said to be better than Britain and France, but also completely lost their minions in one go, and hundreds of thousands of troops equipped with foreign guns-like cannons surrendered without even putting down a few guns.
Walking in the beautiful garden, looking at the koi carp shuttling freely, Emperor Guangxu not only did not think it was good-looking, but felt that those beautiful scenery was dazzling and obstructive, and really wanted to order someone to eradicate these flowers and plants.
For more than ten years, the Westernization has become an excuse for the governors to take power with money, train troops, and run industries, but in fact weaken the control of the imperial court over the provinces and localities, and gradually make the power fall aside.
Later, Li Mo's sailor defeated Japan, and he was afraid that he would continue to wave the army to Gyeonggi, so Li Hongzhang wanted to form an alliance with Russia, but unexpectedly caused a big crisis, resulting in the destruction of the Beiyang Navy, and the three northeastern provinces were also cut off by Li Mo, who was sideways.
All this made the young emperor feel a deep sense of powerlessness, especially the queen mother, under the pressure of foreigners, actually agreed to lease the three provinces and reconcile Li Mo, which made him extremely angry, and now he not only did not feel the king of the world, but had a deep sense of imprisonment
Now that Li Mo has defeated Japan again, and the male army has dominated the entire Yellow Sea, even Britain and France must be polite to three points, looking at his face, Zhili Tianjin and Shandong are all under the cannon of his sailors, which simply keeps him awake at night
Emperor Guangxu clenched his fists, he found that since the first day of the war, no matter what he did or thought, he seemed to be unable to avoid that Li Mo, is he really as rumored by the outside world, the nemesis of the Qing Dynasty?
Thirty years on lease?
Can you reclaim that land in 30 years?
"Nonsense"
Emperor Guangxu took a deep breath, and asked without looking back: "Teacher, have you seen Kang Youwei's fold a few days ago?" ”
Weng Tongsu nodded hurriedly: "Back to the emperor, the old minister has seen it." ”
"Let's talk about it."
Weng Tongsu took a breath, and was about to speak when he suddenly looked around, Emperor Guangxu naturally understood what he meant, and after waving his hand and retreating all the eunuchs and palace maids around him, he continued: "Back to the emperor, the old minister thinks that Kang Youwei is right, according to the old minister's observation for so many years, I found that now I have the Qing Dynasty governors in various places to form a party for personal gain, intercept taxes, and privately allocate troops, and there is already a faint image of splitting the territory and sealing the territory, so the old minister thinks that it is time to reform the old law and create a peace."
"But?" Emperor Guangxu turned his head, looked at a big white lotus in the distance, and asked, "Teacher, have you forgotten?" It took Japan ten years to get it, but in exchange for this, was it not the end, was it divided up by various countries? ”
"And last time Sun Yuwen also said that Japan seems to be a strong country, but it is precisely because of its strength that it has caused the worries of various countries and attracted it. Emperor Guangxu paused and continued: "That person, Britain and France will support him to defeat Japan, and then divide the land of the four islands. ”
"Gibberish"
These words made Weng Tongsu's neck red, but he didn't expect those emperors and queens to turn black and white so upside down, and said angrily: "The emperor must not be misled by villains like Sun Yuwen to make Japan strong, it is indeed a ten-year victory, but it is just that he was attacked by someone and lost the first step, so that it was difficult to step by step, not to mention that all countries did not support Li Mo at all, otherwise they would not have helped Japan build so many big ships."
In Lao Chen's view, Japan failed only because the maintenance time was too short to achieve full success, and Japan itself was located overseas and lacked resources, so even Japan could not truly achieve self-sufficiency.
But my Qing Dynasty is different, even if the three northeastern provinces are temporarily leased, there is still a vast territory and many people, if the rich land in the south of the Yangtze River can be revived, enough to arm a million troops, why not recover the lost territory early?
And the old minister has also studied Li Mo recently, he learned the foreign law at the beginning of Honolulu, built a shipyard, set up an industrial and commercial bureau, supported industry, reformed finances, and his soldiers will be trained in Western methods, and he also recruited a wide range of people, even foreigners did not let go, so he was able to get a sailor in just a few years, and defeated Japan on the occasion of the First Sino-Japanese War and obtained the land of Ryukyu.
After he leased the three northeastern provinces, he set up a government council under the pretext of needing to manage the land under his name, forcibly implemented his set of laws, exploited mining deposits, built railways, and built a large number of civil works
It can be said that these are all brought about by the Fa
Therefore, the old minister felt that not only should the law not be abolished because of Japan, but should be added, so that he can take advantage of the vastness of the Qing Dynasty to recover the imperial power as soon as possible and reshape the country."
Emperor Guangxu nodded, but he still didn't dare to make up his mind, so he just asked, "Teacher, do you think Kang Youwei is really helping me?" He proposed that there should be a constitution after the maintenance, so isn't that the power of me? ”
Hearing the emperor's words, Weng Tongsu sighed in his heart, his emperor student is good at everything, but he hesitates when he encounters a major event, and he can't make up his mind to give Sun Yuwen and Li Hongzhang an opportunity to take advantage of, so he hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, Kang Youwei is young and vigorous, although he acts straightforwardly, but he dares to act, he is a trustworthy person, although he advocates the maintenance of the constitution, but what he proposed is to protect the imperial power, and the law of maintaining the military power, the old minister also feels that it can be implemented, as long as the military power is still in the hands of the emperor, then this country will always be the Qing Dynasty."
"Royalist"
Emperor Guangxu chewed deeply twice, and asked again: "Teacher, do you also think that the Qing Dynasty has reached the moment when it must be maintained?" ”
Hearing that Emperor Guangxu was still hesitating, Weng Tongsu paused and said: "Your Majesty, it is time to change, for the sake of the long-term peace and stability of my Qing Dynasty in the future, and in order to recover your power as soon as possible, the minister suggested that the emperor should immediately start to maintain, so that not only can the world collect taxes, strengthen the army, benefit the people outside can resist strong enemies, and the people can stabilize the hearts of the people in the world and ensure the stability of the country."
"Take back the rights" Emperor Guangxu's eyes lit up, he was already fed up with the old and immortal woman who was pointing fingers behind her back, as long as she could take back her rights, it was more important than anything else
But is it that simple to get your rights back? You must know that now he is no different from the Tongzhi of the Curtain Listening to the Government, he has no soldiers and no power, so he can't help but worry: "Teacher, do you know, even if I agree to Wei, but where is the Queen Mother?" ”
Weng Tongsu, Emperor Guangxu, the Way of Nature, was worried about something, and immediately said: "Your Majesty, didn't Emperor Shengzuren also lie down and taste courage back then, and worked hard for eight years, killed Aobai to regain power, and created a prosperous generation?" Now His Majesty can also take advantage of the occasion to create a prosperous age"
"As for what you are worried about, Your Majesty, Kang Youwei has a suggestion."
"Oh? What do you recommend? ”
"The emperor remembers Yuan Shikai who was training in Tianjin"
"Yuan Shikai?" Emperor Guangxu's heart jumped violently, and he immediately understood what Weng Tongsu meant, Yuan Shikai claimed to be 50,000 Beiyang troops in his hands, if so
"Then bother the teacher, go to one day."
Before Emperor Guangxu finished speaking, he was suddenly interrupted by a rush of footsteps, and saw the eunuch on duty running in front of him quickly, and reported: "Long live Lord, Lord Sun is here, and he is listening to the announcement in the Wenhua Palace." ”
"Well, got it, let him wait a while." Emperor Guangxu waved his hand, ready to discuss the matter of Wei with Weng Tongsu again, but unexpectedly, the eunuch had already said urgently: "Long live Lord, Lord Sun said that this matter is urgent, if the emperor does not see him, he will break in." ”
"Bastard, what is more important than me discussing state affairs with my teacher?" Emperor Guangxu frowned.
"The slave is not very clear." The eunuch in charge was so frightened that he trembled, and said stubbornly: "I just heard from Master Sun that something big happened in Taiwan, and a French warship was burned in Taiwan." ”
"What"

Roosevelt Sr. is finally dead
Pinching the telegram, Li Mo's hands trembled, if the previous assassination of Parsons and others was to ensure his technological lead, then Roosevelt's death would be of great significance, because it meant that the United States would be less sharp in the sight of the Pacific.
This guy, who haunted him like a ghost from the first meeting, finally fell to San Juan, a treasure that he should have been famous all over the world, earned enough political capital, and became a star in American politics to lay a solid foundation for his future ascension to the US presidential throne.
Although there were expansionist pioneers such as William McKinley, anyone who knows a little bit of American history will probably know that Roosevelt played a huge role in America's entry into the Pacific era
This character, who is known for his toughness, made South America tremble, and made the United States the hegemon of the Pacific, finally became an important victim of Wenxiu and the snipers at gunpoint this time because of the calculation and greed in his character, and because of the shameless foresight of Master Li.
He was also martyred by 6,000 American GIs
The United States' desire to quickly annex Cuba has finally failed, and the remaining nearly 10,000 American soldiers have been dragged outside the port of San Diego, and the Spanish army, which saw hope, is launching a counterattack, and because of Sun Jiugong's little tricks in evacuation, a page in Cuban history has been opened, and the Americans were completely enraged by the corpses of those Cubans, and officially fell out with the Cuban ** army that was armed by themselves, although they dare not say that they can drag the United States, but at least it is impossible for the United States to continue to control Cuba in peace and stability
The inexperienced American GIs will face the fierce artillery fire of the Cuban ** army, which has experienced the battle with the Spanish colonial army and has gradually stood up, and even he can no longer predict when the United States will occupy Cuba
Li Mo took a deep breath, leaned back in the chair comfortably, looked at Fang Xianqi who came over, and his heart was hot, without Roosevelt, he could finally sleep soundly tonight
"Brother Li, what makes you so happy." Fang Xianqi walked to Li Mo's side, and after feeling the lack of concealment at the corner of his mouth, he couldn't help but ask in surprise.
"Really? Am I happy? Young Master Li shamelessly pretended to stretch his waist, grabbed his waist with his big hand, and said with a smile: "No one bothers me today, I can go to bed early." ”
"Brother Li" Fang Xianqi's face is tender, although she has become a real young grandmother several times, she still can't stand this kind of teasing, she stomps her feet and shyly, but her heart is also sweet, but before Young Master Li can continue to be shameless, a hurried knock on the door came from outside again.
"Young master, there is news from Taiwan"
