Zai Chun knew that to deal with a clean figure like the old man, it would be useless for you to rely on coercion alone. In the hearts of such people, Confucianism and tradition are more conservative than imperial power!
Once the imperial power conflicts with the ideal Ubuntu world in their minds, these people will abandon the imperial power immediately. These people really have the character of scholars and are not afraid of death!
Zai Chun could not confront Master Weng, so he could only persuade him little by little to explain what this new world was like!
The new world will change the old system, but Zaichun didn't say how much, or he didn't dare to tell the truth. He could only tell Weng Tonghe that the damage of this industrial revolution to tradition is limited and controllable!
Of course Weng Tonghe hoped that the changes would become smaller and smaller, preferably none at all, but Zai Chun's last words silenced him!
"If you change yourself, you may be able to retain most of the old rules, but if you refuse to change... then you will end up with no remaining rules at all!"
"Master, you have also seen that the huge lethality released by Western industrial civilization can we withstand it? Last night, an airship suppressed our entire city's defenders!"
"Today in broad daylight, they can still show off their power to escort the special envoy! Do you really think it is an enlarged hot air balloon? You are wrong. This is the power of the new world I am talking about. It is so violent that we cannot resist it! "
"My Master Weng...you go back and think carefully about how to adapt to this change and try to leave as many good things as the sage said. This is the foundation!"
"Either change or die! Can't you make such a simple choice? So, today you are wrong, really wrong..."
"But I will not punish you and your subordinates...Everything has two sides! Let the Chinese listen to our anger, at least let them restrain themselves at the negotiation table..."
"Master, please go home and think about it carefully, I won't keep you!"
Weng Tonghe left Meiwu in a daze, and walked toward the Meridian Gate alone. As soon as he passed the square of the military aircraft, his disciples and grandsons surrounded him!
"Teacher! How is it! What did your Majesty say? What punishment will we have?"
Weng Tonghe shook his head, "Your Majesty, let it go... Your Majesty will not punish anyone!"
The crowd suddenly looked relieved. Not everyone has the spirit of dedication. Qingliu is actually also a fan of officialdom! I have been anxious for a long time, but I finally heard good news from the teacher!
"I'm just telling you! Your Majesty will definitely know our hard work. The color of this day will not change. You still have to listen to us to govern the world!"
"Let's celebrate with a drink! Although we didn't win a big victory today, we can't be considered a loser. It also gave the two devils a great shock! Under the circumstances of one situation and another, we will definitely win in the end!"
Someone else asked in a low voice, "Teacher, since Your Majesty can tolerate us, does this mean that the reform laws need to be adjusted? Has Your Majesty re-thought..."
The old man pushed away the crowd and waved his hands without answering, "Let me go home...let me think behind closed doors...don't ask, don't ask anything!"
The old man left everyone behind and left. These Qingliu all looked at each other in shock!
There are many theories in history about the crisis that broke out in the capital on the summer night of 1872. Qing Dynasty historians called this incident a "Chinese Rebellion." They did not define it as a war, but only said that it was caused by a misunderstanding. tragedy!
Even the Manchu Qing officials did not admit that these Chinese special forces were sent by Xiao Letian, but directly blamed the special envoy Cai Bixia!
In an instant, Cai Bixia was blackened in the hearts of everyone and became a murderous female devil!
The Manchus and Qing Dynasties wrote history in this way to shield themselves from shame. If the imperial court defined it as a military invasion, then it would be unjustifiable not to declare war!
If the official said it was Xiao Letianxia's order, then this incident meant that the Chinese declared war on the Manchus. In order to maintain his rule, Emperor Tongzhi had to rebel and respond, or at least declare war!
There was definitely no way to fight the war, so Manchu history books could only define it as a riot caused by the arbitrary actions of special envoys, even the top Chinese officials were unaware of it!
In fact, this statement is also very confusing, because the attack on Sijiu City requires more than 100 people plus an airship. The number is indeed very low. It seems reasonable to mobilize more than 100 people as a special envoy!
The common people are easy to fool. They naively think that if Xiao Letian takes action, there will be thousands of troops! So using the word riot to describe it can still fool a group of people!
But the people didn't know the details, but the officials knew it very well. Officials who had experienced this bloody battle called it the "Renshen Political Change"!
Once an official calls something an incident, it becomes serious! The seizure of power during the Xinyou years was a coup!
Because after this bloody battle, the transfer of power in the Qing Dynasty was directly accelerated, Zai Chun's prestige suddenly increased, and even before the wedding, the Japanese were forced to fall ill!
Since there has been a huge transfer of power, what else can this be if it is not a coup?
The foreign devils in Dongjiaominxiang viewed the problem more from a technical perspective. Their reports to the country collectively referred to this incident as the 'airship incident'!
The foreigners' focus is on airships, and this new weapon is even more attractive to them!
Night is gradually falling, and Sijiu City is still in an extremely terrifying atmosphere, but the people must live no matter what, eat what they should eat, and drink what they should drink!
Some markets in Nancheng have cautiously opened for business. People have been cooping up at home all day. Those who have food in stock are lucky, but those who don’t have food in stock can’t survive. They can only go out with their pockets to try their luck!
Many coolies in the capital have no savings. They must ensure that they have to work every day in order to have food to eat. If they don't work for one day, the rice tank at home will be at the bottom!
When it was getting dark, a strange scene appeared in the capital. In those areas that were not affected by the war, people were walking against the walls one by one.
The common people in the capital who followed the old rules would normally bow and bow, chat and so on, but today when acquaintances met face to face, they just handed each other in hand!
"Is the family safe today? No one messed with Xiao Letian, right?"
"TOEFL, TOEFL... the one who feeds the family as a soldier is in Xishan, not in the city!"
"Oh...that's good, that's good! In today's world, even the city walls don't work anymore...it's safer to go outside the city!"
The market in Nancheng has opened, and the inner city has gradually gained popularity. After all, we have to live, and the families of the dead have to go to funerals!
And the greetings used by the people in the capital have all been changed. When people meet, they just greet each other with "No one in your family is in Xiao Letian's house, right?"
"No! That's good, that's good..."
From that day on, it became the most annoying curse word and a curse in Xiao Letian's hands! '
If someone scolds the street and says, "Sooner or later you will die in Xiao Letian's hands!" 'This is a bloody feud!
Because the special forces killed so badly last night, the dead were really inhuman. This kind of killing has exceeded people's imagination!
The sound of crying and drumming mixed with bursts of curses came like muffled thunder in summer. Guiziliu in Prince Gong's Mansion was lying on the bed and heard the noise, and his head began to buzz again!
"Close the window! Close the window!"
