Emperor Tongzhi suddenly became murderous! Xin Jian's seemingly ordinary words touched the deepest thorn in Zai Chun's heart!
The relationship between Emperor Tongzhi and this master was too delicate. Without Xiao Letian, there would be no emperor who is now self-reliant and broad-minded!
The years of studying abroad have really tempered Zai Chun's character. In the series of conflicts in the later years when he was in charge, Zai Chun showed a sophistication that was not suitable for his age no matter what!
This is a maturity beyond age, and it would not be possible without traveling thousands of miles and reading thousands of books!
Don’t think it’s easy for the emperor to go on a study tour. In fact, it was very difficult in ancient China, because those Confucian ministers who shouted to make the emperor a saint actually didn’t want the emperor to go out of the palace to see the world at all!
If the emperor has direct contact with the people and understands everything, how can the huge bureaucracy deceive the superiors and conceal the truth?
This is very funny. China’s bureaucracy since ancient times has suddenly become extremely contradictory! If the emperor eats, drinks and has fun in the palace every day, these people will scold him for ignoring government affairs, why not eat minced meat, etc.!
But once the emperor likes to go out of the palace to visit the people, these people will immediately advise him, saying that going out of the palace is a waste of people and money, saying that the emperor is just having fun and neglecting the government when he goes out of the palace, and even refuses to allow the emperor to leave the capital on the grounds of safety!
In fact, in the final analysis, it is just the monarch and the bureaucratic group competing for power and blaming each other!
The power must be grabbed, and the scapegoat must be dumped! There are good and bad ministers, and the emperor also has his dark side!
When Xiao Letian took away Emperor Tongzhi, he was 'kidnapped' by setting up cannons and using strong troops. Without such confidence, it would be impossible for anyone to let an emperor of the Qing Dynasty leave the capital, or even go to Europe!
Sure enough, Emperor Tongzhi, who had been tempered outside, had shocked the entire court. How many people had he killed under the age of twenty? How many powerful officials dare not breathe heavily in front of him!
Everything is the result of Xiao Letian's education. Zai Chun's admiration for the master from his bones and soul cannot be erased!
However, the conflict between the master and the disciple is also very big, because the Chinese and the Qing Dynasty coexist on the land of East Asia, and the two sides have a very big conflict of interest!
If the Chinese become stronger, the Qing Dynasty will definitely feel uncomfortable. If the Qing Dynasty is revived, the Chinese will definitely be suppressed when they turn around!
This is the core contradiction, a fundamentally irreconcilable contradiction, and a deep thorn in Zaichun's heart!
The conflicted Emperor Tongzhi once had a daydream about using his identity as a disciple to inherit the future industries of the Chinese people, so that the Qing Dynasty and the Chinese people could merge together and become his own country!
But when Fu Yin'er appeared, his dream was awakened by both positive and negative slaps!
He was already in a bad mood, but today Xin Jian struck a thorn in his side that he didn't want to touch, which was the fundamental difference between the Qing Dynasty and the Chinese!
This is something that Zai Chun cannot change even after vomiting blood even though he was tired!
The Chinese code clearly states that all people are equal! However, the Qing Dynasty used laws to stipulate the differences between Manchu and Han, the Eight Banners system, and the rights of masters and slaves!
One is a slavery society, and the other is a society where all people have equal rights!
Can you, Emperor Tongzhi, fill this fundamentally huge gap? Xin Jian will tell you clearly today, I am a human being, not an animal that can be trained!
Even if you are the emperor, you cannot insult my fundamental human rights!
The atmosphere was so tense that it was about to catch fire. The fire in Zai Chun's heart was stronger than the fire in a blast furnace!
This sentence completely tore up the fig leaf in his heart and completely shattered his dream of peacefully annexing the Chinese!
Doesn't Xin Jian know that he is already in the gate of hell? Of course he knows, but even if he knew he wouldn't change his belief!
Beheading is okay! If you ask me to be a slave, that won't work!
"Haha...hahaha..." Emperor Tongzhi laughed. This laughter made all the officials tremble. Some even closed their eyes because they couldn't bear to watch.
The foreign devils were all stunned and didn't know what was happening, but they could feel that the atmosphere was extremely tense.
"Haha...Okay, okay...I said the wrong thing, why are you all so serious?" Zai Chun turned to look at Xin Jian, "It doesn't matter if you don't want to come to Qing Dynasty. You helped to build this Jingshi Steel Plant." , you are all familiar with this place!”
"I will hire you to solve problems at any time in the future! Don't worry, the Qing Dynasty will not reduce your wages... Hahaha, let's go and have a banquet!"
Zai Chun was still not ready to fall out with the Hua people at this moment. Of course he couldn't kill Xin Jian!
When people walked out of the workshop, they were all relieved by the cool breeze. Feeling the sweat on their bodies, they didn't know whether it was from being heated by the blast furnace or from being frightened.
The Capital Iron Works specially prepared a banquet, and all the important ministers watching the ceremony sat together.
However, the atmosphere was a bit unfriendly. The nobles in the palace stared at the Qingliu scholars, blowing their beards and glaring at them!
Zai Chun was also in a depressed mood. The banquet was not enjoyable. The good mood of the Jingshi Iron Works being put into operation mixed up these two things.
It's easy to say that Xin Jian doesn't need to be dealt with, after all he is just a daring Chinese worker, but the railway network issue must be resolved!
How to persuade the elite Confucian scholars not to object? You can't rely entirely on imperial power to suppress them. If you are dissatisfied, something will happen sooner or later!
On the way back to Beijing, Fu Qing accompanied Zai Chun on horseback. Zai Chun asked, "Fu Qing... tell me, what's going on with the question that Master Weng asked? I really haven't thought about this problem before..." "
Fu Qing also frowned, "Your Majesty, I have some vague clues, but I can't tell the details clearly... It's increased to eight yuan, everyone has made money, who is losing money?"
"Those who went bankrupt and committed suicide by jumping into the river before must have lost money. Their money became part of the stock market... but it was not enough. No matter how you calculate those people's property, it is not worth the 70 million taels of added value!"
"This has jumped from 10 million to 80 million... Where did all this money come from? I'd better ask a knowledgeable financial expert when I get back..."
"How about... I send a telegram to Ryukyu?"
This meant that he had to ask Xiao Letian directly. Fu Qing knew that Zai Chun was emotionally sensitive at the moment and could not take the initiative to send a telegram to his master, so he had to do it himself.
Zai Chun didn't say anything, he was just in a daze, not knowing what he was thinking!
The mighty honor guard returned to the Forbidden City. It was a lively day like the Chinese New Year, but these ministers all had other ideas!
That night, Prince Zheng held a banquet at home and invited Prince Li and others to drink. On this day, Weng Tonghe and Qingliu were so angry that Chengzhi was filled with resentment!
"Damn it, these Han slaves dare to speak against me! I will kill them sooner or later!"
"That's right! This is the world of our bannermen. We can engage in as many stock markets as we want. If you dare to block our way of making money, we will reap the benefits of him in the future!"
"Brothers, don't worry, this railway stock thing won't be scandalous!"
"And that slave named Xin Jian! Damn it, even His Majesty dared to offend him today... let him die sooner or later, let him die!"
Note: The third update is here, brothers and sisters, support with full firepower!
