"The French businessmen have no money to make, why did the French officials give him a head?" The merchant's partner was a little surprised, "When will Lord Yang give their merchant's business a start?" ā€

"How fresh, speaking of which, foreigners come to China for money!" The merchant scoffed, "Did you go to war with us at any cost for opium in the old days?" I heard that they have something called parliament, and the merchants have a lot of power in it, and they can influence the policies of a country, so our queen mother," he quietly lowered her voice, pretending to be mysterious, "It's not that Baba spends the silver, in order to give it to the opium merchants for nothing, don't let the British use knives and guns again, hehe, what's the difference between this and Song Gaozong?" ā€

When the two of them saw the people coming and going, they immediately kept their mouths shut about it, and the businessman just sighed, "Seeing that the foreign merchants have their eldest master to help support them, what about ours?" Blindly exploiting us, what donations, what money, except for those factories run by the Ministry of Internal Affairs and government, how much profit can other factories have? Feed the tigers.

"The court is also difficult, these years, floods, droughts, locust plagues have been continuous, you see that the city of Sijiu is still singing and dancing, outside the city gate, but all are homeless, fortunately, these years the government has pulled out some silver, in exchange for work, the effect is not bad, but this is also no way, where there are a lifetime of workers?"

The teahouse guy crossed over to the two men and served tea on the other table, where a young man who looked like a scholar put down the newspaper and was filled with righteous indignation, "These rebels and thieves! ā€

"What's wrong, Brother Nian?" A young man on the side was originally looking at a copy of "Theory of Mechanics" carefully and carefully, but when he heard the complaints of the people on the side, he raised his head and asked.

"The French are making trouble again in Vietnam!"

Wang Kaiyun wore court clothes into the big palace gate of the Old Summer Palace, passed through the entry and exit of Xianliang, bypassed the Mingdong Hall, entered the Qinzheng Qinxian, did not enter the main hall Baohe Taihe Palace, just crossed the gate in front of the Qinzheng Palace, and arrived at the auspicious place in the east, here is the duty room of the General Administration Division, he entered the duty room, which has already been stacked with the folds of the whole table, Sula came up to make tea, and the governor of the General Administration Department Zhang Bingde took an envelope up, "This is taken by Gao Zhangjing." ā€

Wang Kaiyun took out the letter paper and looked at it, and smiled indifferently, "Bozu is making a fuss, you go to the military aircraft department and tell him, just say that I already know about this matter, and when Xisheng summons him later, let's just talk again." ā€

"Yes."

Zhang Bingde turned around and walked out of the auspicious place, just walked out of the grass, and saw a group of ministers walking out of Feiyunxuan, looking at the uniform system, he knew that they were all first-class officials, Zhang Bingde naturally knew these military ministers, half of the excerpts of the General Administration Department had to be sent to the military aircraft, and he didn't dare to slack off, standing on the side with his sleeves and waiting for the ministers of the military aircraft to pass, although Prince Gong was noble and calm, but there was a little melancholy between his eyebrows, and he took the lead in walking to the Baohe Taihe Palace, and followed the minister of military aircraft according to the shift. There is also Shangshu Qinghai of the Li Fan Yuan, and Guo Songtao, the co-organizer of the Prime Minister's Yamen, there are no secrets at all in the Great Interior, especially in the Qinzheng Palace, a place that deals with important national affairs, and it is even more known that this time the monarch and the ministers are right, and they must discuss the British Crown Prince's visit to China and Vietnam.

Zhang Bingde entered Feiyun Xuan, saw the military aircraft Zhang Jing Gao Xinkui, said what Wang Kaiyun wanted to command, and turned to leave, just returned to the auspicious place not long after, there was news from the Baohe Taihe Palace, saying that the ministers of the military aircraft had knelt out.

The prelude to the discussion, it can't end at all in one or two hours, why is it so fast today? Zhang Bingde was slightly surprised, and before he could speak, Wang Kaiyun had already gotten up, put the fold in his hand into his sleeve, straightened his clothes, and walked out of the auspicious place. ā€

"It's going well," Wang Kaiyun said with a smile, "maybe there's a little bit of hope." Not worth mentioning. ā€

"Hey," Gao Xinkui shook his head, "It's a bit difficult." ā€

Liang Ruyi came out and led the two into the hall, so the two stopped talking, and entered the Qinzheng Palace, the throne above the main hall was no longer a figure, and there were more than a figure in the Xinuan Pavilion, and the two people entered the Xinuan Pavilion, knelt down and saluted, "Get up," a somewhat tired female voice sounded, "Ruyi, bring a stool." ā€

Gao Xinkui got up, raised his head, and looked at a woman in a purple auspicious dress sitting cross-legged on the kang, her right hand supporting and rubbing her temples, looking a little haggard, and there was a little evil between her eyebrows, it was the Empress Dowager Cixi.

Now it is the seventh year of Guangxu, the Queen Mother is still hanging the curtain for seven years, between the seven years, although the small turmoil continues, but there are no major events, everything has Prince Gong outside, there is the Queen Mother inside, everything should be handled properly, so many years have passed smoothly, just governing the country, how can one day sleep peacefully? Especially today, "Hey," the Empress Dowager Cixi raised her head, "The military planes don't approve of this matter, especially Prince Gong, what do you think?" ā€

"What did the Queen Mother say about Vietnam?"

Empress Dowager Cixi nodded, "Prince Gong said that it is enough to let the Prime Minister Yamen do it, this is not a big deal, the Vietnamese are not deferential lords, and it is not worth offending the French for them." The Empress Dowager Cixi breathed, "No matter how horizontal the French are, they can't come to China, and now the most important thing for Prime Minister Yamen to do is to continue to fight lawsuits with Russia." ā€

"What does the Queen Mother mean?"

The Empress Dowager Cixi chuckled, "If I agree, can this child still disperse?" You must know that the ceremonial note of Edward's visit to China has not yet been decided, and I saw that the tone was not good, so I hurriedly dispersed, lest I be embarrassed if the military planes all had a unanimous opinion, so I will ask you what you mean first. ā€

"Wechen has served in Beihai for many years and is quite familiar with the temperament of the Vietnamese," Wang Kaiyun said, "Vietnam is very wary of China, although the tributes over the years have been endless, but the heart still wants to be left and right, but now the French are bullying ruthlessly, so we can resist it, maybe in the future the situation will be reversed, they will also play that trick to drive away the wolf." ā€

"It is normal for a small country to be caught between big countries, and to play some scheming." Empress Dowager Cixi raised her eyebrows and said disapprerovingly, "But the Vietnamese begged to come up, no matter what, there is always a reason to deal with the affairs of the south, the affairs of Vietnam, not only Vietnam, but also the Khmer and Laos, the French have a very good method, slowly encroach, first subdue the strongest of the three countries, and the rest is not the belly of the fish?"
