To be honest, Zai Chun didn't know how to deal with the current situation. The messy case made him confused!
He could guess what was going on behind the scenes, but he didn't know how to deal with it. If he followed what he learned from his master, he should really resolve this matter honestly, fairly, and transparently!
But after all, he was still an emperor of a feudal dynasty at heart, and the education he received since childhood prevented him from making such a decision.
What's more, the bizarre power that Xin Jian and the others showed today was something he had never seen before, and it was impossible to analyze it at all.
Emperor Tongzhi did not know the secret comments his master once gave him. In Xiao Letian's top-secret daily notes, there were some judgments about Emperor Tongzhi's study tour career.
"Aisin Gioro Zaichun, his study tour in Europe was generally very successful. He learned diplomacy, negotiation, industry, technology, culture... and even trained his speech eloquence!"
"But due to various unforeseen reasons, Zai Chun and I separated during the second half of the study tour... This is a tragedy. I can't say who is right and who is wrong!"
"Maybe it was the assassination, maybe the British were behind it, maybe it was just the awakening of his imperial bloodline... Anyway, he didn't learn it with me in the end!"
"Zaichun lost the most important lesson!"
"What is it? It was the Paris Commune movement after the Franco-Prussian War! That magnificent proletarian experimental revolution, a failed revolution!"
"What a rare internship opportunity that is! If a person can experience it in person once, he will understand it more clearly than if he has read it in a textbook ten thousand times!"
"The lesson that Zaichun lacks is actually how a king should face the impact of the late workers' movement and proletarian revolutionary ideas!"
"This is the mainstream of contradictions in the future world. You cannot govern a country without studying these!"
"It's a pity that Zai Chun just read some reports in the newspaper and saw some photos... He didn't have real personal experience. He didn't have the urgent pressure to empathize with it!"
"This is a blank course... If he doesn't take it, then he will have to hand in a blank paper later!"
The daily life notes are top secrets of the Chinese people. When Xiao Letian is alive, no one can check them. After Xiao Letian's death, only the Grand Council votes and authorizes the research to be carried out step by step in a planned manner.
Moreover, it will not be possible for all people to access it in the beginning. This knowledge may always remain the private archives of politicians, which is a top secret in governing the country!
Zai Chun never had the opportunity to pry into the words in the Daily Notes in his life, although he had already become part of the records in the Daily Notes, and his words and the remarks of the head of state that he triggered were also recorded in it.
But records are records, and he will never have the right to view them!
Maybe future generations will have questions, did the head of state intend to trap Zai Chun? Deliberately not telling him the answer and leaving one behind?
This is really an injustice to Xiao Letian. There are more than ten million words recorded in the daily notes of the head of state. Many of Xiao Letian's words and deeds were inspired by his thoughts at the time.
The busyness of the head of state is unimaginable to ordinary people. Maybe he had completely forgotten about a comment he made last night the next day.
He meant to remind Yizhao Chun, but due to a strange combination of circumstances, these reminders were missed!
No one is omnipotent, and no one can handle every detail with one hand. Xiao Letian is not a god!
The missed education put Zai Chun in an embarrassing situation when he was governing the Qing Empire. The general direction was correct but the tactics always stumbled!
And once he encounters an emergency, he can only find solutions from his pitifully limited knowledge base!
In the predicament before him, the only thing he could think of, and perhaps the most profound memory in his life, was Xiao Letian's sharp mouth that could talk the dead back to life!
Stand among the people, get to know them, comfort them, encourage them... Although saliva cannot cure terminal diseases, it is a placebo after all!
At this moment, more than 400 people began to get restless outside the courtyard of the night school. These were all kind-hearted people who had been specially selected to perform the pick-up scene.
Even these carefully selected honest people started making trouble. Can you imagine how much of a commotion this tragedy will cause after it spreads throughout the entire iron factory?
This matter must be suppressed as soon as possible, and these more than 400 people must be suppressed so that the restless plague can no longer be transmitted.
"Get out of the way! Am I still afraid of my own people? Get out of the way..."
The new Yulin Army could only make way for a small opening, and Zai Chun strode towards the angry crowd. He suppressed his fear! It would be a lie to say that you are not afraid, but no matter how afraid you are of this psychological barrier, you have to get through it yourself!
Standing in front of Wang Grasshopper's body, Zai Chun looked at his painful brother with a sad face. He then looked up at the angry peasants. He suddenly took half a step back, clasped his fists with both hands and bowed to these people!
"I... I don't know people well and my subordinates are not strict... I allowed such a tragedy to happen at the Capital Iron Works!"
"I... apologize to everyone!"
ah! The crowd exclaimed, and the officials behind were all dumbfounded. No one expected that the emperor actually bowed to the people!
From the perspective of being close to the people, Zai Chun can really be regarded as an emperor through the ages!
"Fellow folks! I am very sad that such a tragedy happened in the Jingshi Iron Works, but please believe me, my feelings are the same as yours, and I don’t want to see this scene!"
"Yes! People talk about the Holy Emperor, they talk about Tongzhi Zhongxing, and they all talk about the flowers blooming in this country... But what is the real situation?"
"You have seen it, and I have also seen it... This is not a peaceful and prosperous age at all. If it were really a peaceful and prosperous age, why would I bother to build this iron factory and carry out this industrial reform?"
"Because the Qing Dynasty is not perfect yet, and there are still treacherous ministers and villains in the court, so I have to work hard to reform and improve!"
"I am here to implore you fellow citizens! Give me some time, give the court some time... Don't worry, the dark clouds cannot cover the sun, and all the darkness here will eventually be swept away!"
"I promise you that your grievances will be redressed. I just ask you to believe in me...believe in the Qing Dynasty!"
Never before has such an emperor been willing to say such words, with such a tone, and with such humility to the humble people!
The people of the feudal dynasty had been suppressed by the imperial power for thousands of years, and their servility to the emperor was deeply ingrained. When they saw this scene, half of the anger in their hearts was released.
Yes, who else can you trust? All emperors are emperors, and there is no bad emperor!
The emperor has already bowed and apologized to everyone, what else can he do? The emperor has said that he will avenge everyone, so just wait patiently!
The relatives who cried bitterly fell to their knees again and said, "Long live the Emperor... Long live, Long live the Emperor! O Holy King, O Holy Emperor..."
Xin Jian closed his eyes weakly, "Slaves... These people are already slaves from the bottom of their hearts! They are hopeless..."
