Guizi Liuzhen in the cemetery was as full of gloom as a ghost. He sneered and said, "Actually, our Qing Dynasty has perished long ago, and it perished twice!"
"When the Chang Mao rebellion started, we, the Manchu Eight Banners elites, didn't have any talents capable of turning the tide, and in the end we had no choice but to use Han armed forces!"
"When the Han warlords rose in power, I knew the country would be destroyed early in the morning!"
"You don't believe it? Are you dissatisfied? Don't be like those people in the Eight Banners Alley. Think about it for yourself. Apart from relying on the laws of nature and conscience, is there any other way for our court to move Zeng Guofan and Zuo Zongtang?"
"Aren't you bound by the ethics and morals formulated by the Han people themselves?"
"Haha... With the soldiers they have now, the Qing Dynasty will no longer be able to control them!"
"Even if Zeng Guofan and Zuo Zongtang stopped kneeling when they saw the emperor, they slapped you Yixuan twice in the face. How dare you resist? Do you really dare to chop off his head?"
"Haha... Even if someone enters the Imperial City's harem and sleeps with both queens, guess what? The imperial court will have to endure it, and it will have to go out and refute the rumors that this is all false news!"
"My silly brother, the country has perished so early in the morning. Since our Eight Banners were unable to maintain the most powerful force in the country, the foundation of the imperial court has collapsed!"
"When was the second subjugation of the country? When Xiao Letian broke through Guangqumen and performed martial arts in front of the Hall of Supreme Harmony, the last fig leaf of the Qing Dynasty was completely shattered. Even the emperor was taken away. What are you blowing?"
"Brother, let me tell you the truth. Back then, I really wanted to bring a pistol and a dagger when I saw Xiao Letian... I... I would die with him!"
"Don't think that I am a coward. If there is no way for us to survive, I will die with him!"
"But I never expected that the devil Xiao Letian would throw out such a tempting cake! The Eight Kings Discussion, he actually promised us to hold the Eight Kings Discussion!"
"Er Mao acted as his mouthpiece, and I still remember what he said to me... He said that in fact, the institutional framework of the Eight Kings' Discussion is very similar to the European Parliament of Nobles!"
"It's just that it's a little too rough and needs to be polished carefully! There has never been absolute imperial power in Europe. The emperor has to listen to the opinions of the aristocratic council for any big things he wants to do. The minority also needs to obey the majority!"
"First there was the aristocratic parliament, and then there was the civilian parliament composed of businessmen and intellectuals... Maybe ordinary people will also be able to form a parliament in the future. By then, major national affairs will have to be voted on and discussed by all!"
"Look, the rules we had before the Manchus entered the customs are not out of date! In fact, it's not bad, the Europeans have always used them!"
"I understand what Xiao Letian means. He took Zai Chun to Europe to have a look, learn and feel their systems. When he comes back, he should also study the old system of his ancestors!"
"He will act as his emperor properly, and then set up a new style of aristocratic assembly to discuss state affairs together. This is the way for us to survive in the future of the Qing Dynasty!"
"Everything yesterday is like dying yesterday, and everything today is like living today!"
"As long as Zaichun agrees, I will even consider changing the country's name! Not the year name, but the country's name!"
"What else is it called the Qing Dynasty? That Qing Dynasty died long ago. The new system and the new court require a new country name! Xiao Letian has a Chinese country, why can't we establish a Manchukuo?"
"As long as Zaichun agrees to reform, if I, Guiziliu, have the slightest intention of rebelling, then I will chop off my head and expose my body for three days!"
Yi Xin hysterically vented his resentment, and Yixuan, who was sitting on the grave, was so scared that he was sweating.
"My dear brother, how dare you think about it! With this system of eight kings discussing politics, how many people have died since the founding of the country!"
"Why was Dorgon's body dug up and whipped after his death in the early years of Shunzhi? Why was Obai captured in the early years of Kangxi? There were even people who wanted to restore the Eight Kings to discuss politics during the Yongzheng period!"
"What happened in the end? How many people died! This is a big taboo. From ancient times to the present, the imperial power and this decentralization of power have been sworn enemies!"
"So what! Xiao Letian has already said that this is an era of great change that has not happened in three thousand years. Why can't the traditions of the past be changed?"
"What is clearly written in the Journey to the West is that which of the European powers did not emerge from the cocoon and transform into a butterfly little by little from the profound pain of change? How can any powerful country not reform?"
"Why can the British royal family accept the parliamentary system, but Zaichun can't?"
Yi Xuan was completely dumbfounded and her lips were trembling. She didn't know whether it was from cold or anger. "Brother... I finally understand. It turns out that the person who was most brainwashed by Xiao Letian was not Zai Chun, but you!"
"You were completely brainwashed by Xiao Letian! Why are you so full of Xiao Letian's ideas? That won't work, it will cause big trouble!"
Yi Xuan saw a ghost today. He never thought that his brother was actually a die-hard fan of Xiao Letian's thoughts!
Yi Xin took two steps back and shook his head with a sigh, "I don't want to cause trouble like this. I am not moving troops today to rebel. I just want to declare to the world that the Qing Dynasty cannot return to the old path of the past!"
"Look at the arrogance of Cixi, mother and son during this period! The Great Wall Beacon Fire made Cixi excited. She was beating and jumping up and down. It was completely indecent to quarrel with me over a city gate! "
"Don't think I don't know anything. What happened to Li Tuo? What happened to Isiha? How did Salonga fall? How many rights did Cixi take away from her with a gold seal?"
"You bitch bitch, don't think you can hide it from the world by raising a handsome Isiha!"
"That kid Zai Chun has to work hard. I know he made a lot of money from the British, and I also know that Zuo Jigao trained a new army for him!"
"If you have money and soldiers, just stick to your tail! Do you really think that you can successfully govern yourself and stick to your word?"
"Impossible, this is absolutely impossible... Our Qing Dynasty can never go back to the past. What Xiao Letian summed up is called... what is the name of monarchical centralization!"
"Yes, yes, this is the monarchy. I will never allow it to be restored again!"
"Old Qi, are you going to follow me, or remain neutral? If it doesn't work, just treat me as my enemy. I don't blame you, brother. Even if you become an enemy on the battlefield in the future, I will not kill you!"
"My brother only wants to serve as the aristocratic council of the Qing Dynasty. As for becoming the emperor, I have never thought about it!"
Prince Gong Yixin shook his head and left the grave circle. As he walked, he said, "If you don't reform, you will definitely die. If you reform, there may be a glimmer of hope."
"Don't persuade me, whoever persuades me to risk my life! I am also a lunatic... Hahaha..."
A ghostly laughter came from the graveyard!
