25. Chain Reaction (2)
This is the experience of the Queen Mother, of course she is the goddess of great light, the compassionate Guanyin Bodhisattva, all the errands that offend people underground, will not be her will, the people are very clear, "The Queen Mother is naturally the most virtuous and the most holy!" are all traitors underground, such as Zai Ling Chongqi, who copied the Eight Banners! For example, Su Shun who catches corrupt officials! For example, Balabala, these people, pleading with the West Holy Lord, the Western Holy Lord is the most holy, when will the thunder be launched and all these traitors will be wiped out, it will be satisfactory! ”
But she will never deal with the kind of rabbit and dog cooking of Lai Junchen after the martial arts, as long as she shares the pressure and infamy she bears, there will never be any possible abandonment, so including Zuo Zongtang, Su Shunzai, Ling Chongqi and others, they don't care about the outcome of their own posthumous affairs that may be liquidated, and they can fully implement the intentions of the Empress Dowager Cixi. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info "Yan Jingming, the next thing about this new currency, there will be many people who will be offended, Hu Xueyan is of course capable, but in the end there is still his own industry there, I am afraid that you can't offend people too much, I know that you used to be the governor of Shanxi, and you got along well with those Jin merchants in Shanxi, but in the future, this offending thing will still be handed over to you." ”
Yan Jingming is neither humble nor arrogant, "The minister knows the priorities, and he will definitely do a good job in this matter, a personal relationship is a private relationship, and official affairs are official affairs." ”
The Empress Dowager Cixi nodded with satisfaction, "You don't need a hammer to ring the drum, I'm relieved if you say that, okay, I've made it clear to Li Hongzhang about today's matter, and he will take care of this matter in the future, you kneel down." ”
The Empress Dowager Cixi watched Yan Jingming go out with a smile, and continued, "Little Lizi, tell Guo Songtao to prepare for negotiations with various countries, what information do you have, and quickly tell him, don't face the pressure from Britain, France, Germany and other countries, suddenly panicked, and it is not good to mess up." ”
"Huh."
In the Anhui Guild Hall, the conversation between Li Hongzhang and his daughter continued, "In this way, the pressure of foreign countries on our Qing Dynasty will inevitably increase, and at the Berlin Conference, I originally estimated that I might be able to make some small profits, but if now," Li Hongzhang shook his head, "I'm afraid it's difficult." ”
"It's nothing, the Berlin Conference originally had nothing to do with us, and it didn't take advantage of anything, that's it, but your father's Beiyang minister was not just as simple as being scolded by foreigners."
Li Ju raised his eyebrows, and subconsciously patted the book in his hand with his right hand, "What does my father mean, countries will do a lot of small actions against us in North Korea or Japan." ”
"Yes, the country's dissatisfaction, less money, will be directly reflected, since this proposal is proposed by the old father," Li Hongzhang smiled slightly bitterly, "Then the direct dissatisfaction will be expressed here in Beiyang, and the countries will inevitably change their ways, openly and secretly want to give us good fruits to eat, I don't know anything else, among the warships sold by the British before, the best ones are given to us first, and the Japanese are secondary, but if we don't buy it next, the Japanese will get better warships, In this way, they will become more and more arrogant in Korea, hey, "Li Hongzhang is very worried about the situation in North Korea, although he has not yet taken office, but has already sought the government of the Governor of Beiyang, "Japan, this country, although the country is small, but the ambition is very big, before the Ming Dynasty, Toyotomi Hideyoshi, provoked the big country with a small country, if it was not for the Wanli Emperor to make up his mind to help North Korea, I am afraid that at least North Korea will not be able to keep, the appetite of the small country is still extraordinarily large, not only to North Korea, but also to our land of China, The Japanese seem to have come up with a theory of conquering Korea recently, that is, to pick up Toyotomi Hideyoshi's theory again, use Korea as a pedal, and then occupy the whole of China, including East Asia, hehe, such an ambition is not available to other countries, not only in the past, not only now, but in the future, this Japan is our henchmen! ”
"European powers are far away, and Japan is indeed the closest to us," Li Juju was a little unimpressed with her father's attention to Japan, but this is not to blame her, when did the Chinese look at the small country on this side? To be polite, call them "Orientals", and if you are not polite, they are directly shouted "Japanese slaves" and "Japanese slaves", they are short in stature, most people in China are very modest, and even nod their heads and waists for insults, who can afford such people. Moreover, the first generation of emperors known by the Japanese, everyone generally believes that Xu Fu of the Qin Shi Huang era passed by, originally a person of the same kind of language, so for thousands of years, they are the most docile courtiers and the most humble apprentices in China, and the Japanese upper class are all writing poems and talking in Chinese, such a country, although there is occasionally any disrespect, it is just like an adolescent rebellious son, noisy, and finally to be filial to China's Lao Tzu, the so-called tiger brothers, father and son soldiers, If you want to compete with other countries in the future, a good subordinate like Japan can play a great role, this is the common view of the world, and Ju Coupling is naturally no exception, but Li Hongzhang said so, it is not easy to refute as a daughter, "There is only a thousand days to be a thief, there is no reason to prevent thieves for a thousand days, if it is really according to what my father said, Japan really has the support of other countries, but I am afraid that it will become more and more arrogant." ”
"It's this reason," Li Hongzhang nodded, he was still smoking a cigarette, thinking about it, "This Haiqing Heyan, the happiness of peace in the world, about your old father still knows its preciousness, Zhili here, ruling Gyeonggi, governing Beiyang, remote control of North Korea, this errand is difficult to say, it is really difficult, I am afraid that there is no one more difficult than this governor of Zhili, but if it is not easy, I am afraid that there is no errand in the world that is easier to be than this governor of Zhili, do you know how easy to be an errand in the world?" ”
"My daughter doesn't know," Ju Couple smiled, "If my daughter knows, why do you need your father to be the governor of Zhili, I will take up the number one feudal territory in the world, and it's okay!" ”
"Haha," Li Hongzhang laughed, he didn't see the embarrassment and worry about the dangerous predicament, but felt full of challenges, and was ready to meet these difficulties, "If you want an easy errand, the most important thing is one word,"
"Steady!"
"Whether it is the Westerners, North Korea, or Japan, the most important thing is stability, not change, at least not suddenly," Li Hongzhang set the tone of his own direct administration, "Everything seeks stability!" (To be continued.) )
