In early summer of June, the newly renovated Chinese Palace is made of green trees, red water, and green water. The new Chinese style building with white marble facades and vaulted eaves are hidden with the Chinese style glazed screen walls. There are also Byzantine style marble buildings, which makes people fascinated. The newly built courtyard is not only a simple restoration, but also renovated according to the opinions of the professors of horticulture and architecture. The goal is nothing more than "promoting the new Chinese culture", "integrating the Chinese and Western cultures, inheriting history, and looking forward to the future.

The ponds in the garden are followed by Houhai and Jinshui River. There are filters and doors for entering and leaving the water. They have to remove all kinds of fish fry every year. In addition, no one catches them, so over time, it becomes a good place for fishing.

At this moment, two men, one old and one young, were wearing gorgeous clothes, wearing sunshade hats and fishing cross-legged, with fish baskets and baits beside them. Behind them, a group of black and blue guards stood solemnly.

"Uncle, do you have to be rushing to leave?"

Xu Fan nodded: "I came back to pay homage to the teacher and then pick up my wife. You want to tie me up, but there is no door. 1. Zheng Yu smiled: "If you get tired of being in Beijing, I might as well sign you as the Siberian King, that place is enough for you to play."

"No talk." Xu Fan waved his hand. "That place looks quite small, it's really a barren land. It's winter for half a year, and there are extreme days and nights in the north. It's really not something I can enjoy." "How about North Korea? Look at it, it's a little bit, but it's also a bit of scenery. Mount Kwangmang seems to be famous."

"Don't make any decisions about me." Xu Fan looked at Zheng Yu. "I finally pulled out the tui, but I don't want to fall back."

"What's the good thing about Japanese? 1. Zheng Yu was also a little depressed. "Do you like playing that political reform game so much?"

"Japan is a beautiful place and is suitable for health care." Xu Fan said leisurely and contentedly, "I am very young there. Your aunt heard that Japanese hot springs have the miraculous effects of rejuvenating and nourishing the skin. Many years ago, I instigated me to take over Japanese as soon as possible. Now I finally got what I want. You kid want to ruin my business, don't even think about it." Zheng Yu didn't breathe evenly: "As you have been tormenting for so many years, you have to do this forever. No wonder you have to do the Japanese military and political supervisor."

"I want to say yes, do you believe it?" "Don't." Zheng Yu shook his head decisively, "You are not that kind of person."

"Then who am I?"

Zheng Yu was stunned: "The great lord of the country is not si."

Xu Fan pointed to his nose and raised his lips slightly: "I? Are you right?"

Zheng Yu didn't say anything.

"Xiaoyu, no one in this world is really not S Fan looked at him, his eyes were calm. "I don't want to be an emperor because I don't like being an emperor. This is also a kind of si-heart, not just a public heart. I am lazy and don't want to carry too many things I don't like to on my shoulders. 1 "Then political reform..."

"I can save my worries after I have committed democracy. 1. Xu Fan said calmly, "Being a dictator is a very tiring, very troublesome, and very unsafe thing. At my age, these things have long been clear. Now it is rare that you are willing to carry the burden. What do I do not want to do? Of course, I have to work hard to the end."

Zheng Yu looked at the man with laughter and cry.

The two of them said casually, but they talked about some recent head scratching.

"In just a few days, six or seven ministers and deputy ministers have handed me a resignation." Zheng Yu spread his hands. Liu Xiang said that his waist was not good enough, and he was dizzy and was about to retire. I said that you are only fifty-five and it is still early to 60, so why don't you hold on for a few years?

He said that he would not be able to hold on for a year, so he might as well go home early to make a statement and write a memoir. 1 "Liu Ya has gone to the aspirations long ago. 1. Xu Fan smiled unquestionably, "You can't keep him........., it's better to prepare early."

"Then Li Jingfang told me two points: First, he is a businessman, and doing this is just a temporary basis: Second, he originally thought it would be beneficial to doing business in the future, but now it seems that Britain, France and the United States have hated him to the core. If he continues to do it, he may be enemies in the world."

"Li Boxing, who is smart?" Xu Fan exclaimed. "He has caught up with a good time in diplomacy and is already a great honor. At this time, he did not retreat bravely, and the great powers were siegeing and blocking each other. The hard days came. This man was extremely smart and sophisticated. 1 "I know, so I got angry." Zheng Yu threw a small stone hatefully and fell on Xu Fan's fishing rod and was baiting. A burst of water was startled, and the fish could be seen frightened and fleeing.

Xu Fan looked at the somewhat rogue student with laughter and cry: "Why are you angry? He was originally forced to drive the duck to the shelves, and it was not easy for him to hold on for so long."

"I think he did a good job. 1, Zheng Yu frowned. "As you said, the country has become a leader now, and diplomacy will soon be tested. He left and let others take over, I really may not be relieved. 1, "Do you want me to convince him? 1, Zheng Yu nodded very barely.

"You can't do it, I have no chance." Xu Fan shook his head. "For these people now, your authority and persuasion are already stronger than me: you are the emperor, the veritable emperor. 1, Zheng Yu was angry.

"Don't you appreciate Fang Shijian very much. You have been cultivating it for a long time?" Xu Fan was also a little surprised.

"Fang Shijian is still young.1, Zheng Yu said without hesitation, "The current diplomatic situation is too complicated, but I can't focus on it. Everything depends on them."

"Are you young?" Xu Fan stretched out his hand to straighten Zheng Yu's straw hat without any hesitation. "You are small

Zi, you really take your own nose? 1 "If it doesn't work, I can only drive the duck to the shelves." Zheng Yu shook his head dismissively. "Liu Dingyi stepped down from the general manager. The best candidate is Tang Shaoyi. In the past two years, he has been in good finance and has good popularity. Xingzi is quite upright. Li Dengyun can also support the affairs of the Ministry of Finance. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs asks Shi Jian to try it first. In addition, Zhou Yongshuang, the ambassador to the UK, can be transferred back to be the deputy director in the future... 1 "Do you think of my position to let anyone take over?"

Zheng Yu was slightly stunned and frowned: "This matter is really difficult... According to my opinion, you should still retain the Minister of the Navy. At worst, you can arrange for the deputy director to take charge of the work. Liu Buchan just happened to take over... As the Chief of Staff of the Navy, Lin Tai once deserved it. It is reasonable that he should be promoted."

Xu Fan was silent for a while and nodded: "If you want to persist, then do that. However, Liu Buchan is not suitable for this position at the second-generation chief.

Zheng Yu didn't say anything, just looked at Xu Fan quietly. He knew that there were not many opportunities like this in the future: this was Xu Fan's last guidance to him.

"Liu Zixiang must be suppressed and beat him at any time." Xu Fan said, "If I were not here, he would have taken power, and he would have made big moves in the navy. He has his talents, but if I hadn't been hitting him all the time, I would have had an old problem."

"Who do you like?"

"Let Lin Tai once be the deputy chief of the Navy." Xu Fan said, "The relationship between military and political orders should be straightened out. Military orders should be lower than military and political orders. Liu Zixiang, I will take him to North Korea as an imperial envoy, and let him play tricks with the Japanese. It is best not to get a piece of it with Lin Tai Zeng, because the ranking is not easy to be put on." "The General Staff of the Navy..., 1" Li Tianlin. 1, Xu Fan said softly, "He is the chief of staff of the mobile fleet, and Lin Tai Zeng's deputy. With such an arrangement, the main and secondary of military and political orders will naturally be separated. He was originally a staff officer, and this is also considered to be a talent for the people. He was trained in the town* system, and it is also a check and balance for the people in the Beiyang system."

Zheng Yu thought for a moment and nodded.

"Nie Gongting also wants to retreat." Zheng Yu was silent for a moment, and then said, "This year, although he didn't need to take care of everything, he was still a little helpless. He is indeed old and has won another marshal. Now he is satisfied and wants to retreat bravely. 1 "That's good." Xu Fan smiled. "He is the big Buddha below, which is a response. Who are you going to let? Cen Chunxuan? 1...

"I originally wanted him to take it." Zheng Yu shook his head, "I'm changing my mind now."

"Why?"

"I was inspired by your just now." Zheng Yu scholar Xu Fan looked like he squinted his eyes. "Cen Chunxuan's qualifications are still a little lacking. Once Nie Shicheng withdrew, he and Jiang Sheng and his group could not be called. So I am going to let Jiang Sheng pick up the Minister of the Army and Lin Suren pick up the Chief of Staff."

"Lin Suren?" Xu Fan was stunned. "Aren't you going to let him be the governor of the river? 1 "The doctor examined Lou, and his body had to be rested. 1... Zheng Yushen was so sad that he was so cold in the northwest. He went to the river again, but he was afraid that his life would not last long. It would be better to go back to Beijing to raise him. In fact, according to my idea, he was going to let him go to Hainan to recuperate. When he came to Beijing, he mainly used his prestige.

For specific matters, I have arranged the staff.”

"He is a suitable candidate." Xu Fan thought for a moment and nodded. "He has been in the foreign office and has less connection with Jiang Sheng and other general staff. His prestige is enough, and he can restrain Jiang Sheng. Xiaoyu, you are very experienced in hiring people now."

"That's someone to use it.1, Zheng Yu said, "If my father hadn't cultivated so many talents with you, I'm not a good person, but it's actually nonsense." "When it comes to the river, have you thought about what to do with those places?" Xu Fan said 1

"Xiao Yu, you can't take it lightly. This place looks big, but if it is not handled well, it will be ulcers." "Since you have signed a contract with Britain and France, you have to implement it. 1... Zheng Yu squinted his eyes. "That place is not easy to fiddle with. We say it is to regain our hometown. But since Tanros' defeat, the influence of the Chinese people there has gradually become smaller. In addition, Islam has often wars. I don't want Beijing to shoot and explode every few days."

"I have planned... a draft, and I'm talking to you." Zheng Yu said, "Whether in accordance with the agreement or our own ruling needs, the country must be established independently and cannot be directly managed by military forces. But the key is that they must not establish a unified big country. The smaller the country, the better, and the more conflicts they have with each other, the better, so that our position will be unbreakable."

"I am going to establish three countries on the territory of the Uzbeks: the original Shiva and Bukhara were a multi-ethnic Khanate, and they must be separated. The Uzbeks and Turkmens wanted to establish a country separately, and they were all democratic countries." Zheng Yu smiled and said, "Uncle, the task of helping the people of Central Asia realize their 〖democracy and freedom depends on your 〖democracy experiment.1...

"〖democracy?"

"To put it bluntly, it is a tribal alliance." Zheng Yu nodded. "What these countries are afraid of is to integrate again under the system of unity of politics and religion, and often incite fanaticism. Therefore, they have to divide them and let their tribes compete for interests with each other, so they have to rely on us."

"In addition, the Kazakh Khanate cannot restore its country again, and it will be divided into three large, medium and small Ruz (account). However, all these small and medium countries must be included in our customs alliance with zero tariffs within."

"What are you going to do with the Tajiks and Kyrgyzs?"

"Set it as the Governor's directly under the Governor's territory, 1. Zheng Yu said, "The Governor's District of Hezhong will include all these vassal states, as well as Kyrgyzstan and Tajik. The direct territory is roughly east of the line of withdrawal from Marhan to Astana. Here is the Central Asian Railway of Tsarist Russia as the foundation. The transportation is quite convenient and is also close to our local area. The border troops and other immigrants first rely on the direct area, and then follow the railway to the west with commerce. Within fifteen years, the population ratio of the Governor's territory was moved to the local area of ​​the empire.

The people must account for at least 40%. 1. Xu Fan took a breath and said, "That's about six million people. 1. "The land there is enough, the key is road construction, and then the funds." Zheng Yu smiled. "Central Asia is a treasure land, and it's a good place to manage it. This is a bridgehead for the Middle East and Europe. You can't be careless. 1. Xu Fan looked at him with a serious expression: "Xiao Yu, these places have been enough for us to digest for fifty-one hundred years... Why do you have to? People have been inadequate since ancient times..."

"If a country has no enterprising spirit, it will be weak, and if a person has no ambition to fight, it will be nothing." Zheng Yu shook his head. "Looking at history, the decline of this country always starts with complacency and arrogance, and never enterprising. I just want to exert a spirit, a spirit of diligently seeking enemies and always maintaining a strong enterprising spirit." "As for whether it is a real fight or a threat, it is another matter. 1, Zheng Yu looked at Xu Fan, "I am not a warlike madman, but the saying that forgetting to fight will lead to danger is not as simple as saying.

If you can't always act enterprisingly, cultural habits can turn everything you and Lou into flowing water."

Xu Fan was silent for a while and smiled bitterly: "You are forcing them forward with a gun."

"This is for them." Zheng Yu said calmly. "I will consider them for them all my life. Because I have sat in this position."

Xu Fan finally had to suppress some hidden worries in his heart as he became more confident and more majestic and steady.

"Xiaoyu, the battle is over. What are you going to do next? Do you have any general ideas?"

“The five-year plan has not been formulated…”

"No, I mean, your overall idea of ​​governing the country. 1, Xu Fan waved his hand. "The country has come to this point, and its glory is also brilliant enough. The prosperity of martial arts has never been seen. The whole country is eager to share the dividends of war and to fulfill your promises before the war. The soldiers are ready to make new contributions. It is true that you have rectified the officials, but now after a battle, military control has become a habit. The resumption of the Congress and the local Senate have conflicts with them again.

Such a big country and such a complex situation, where do you want to lead it?" Xu Fan paused and emphasized his tone: "I don't plan to tread muddy waters, but before I leave, you always have to give me a solid foundation."

Zheng Yu looked at the teacher who had always supported him, and his heart was far less peaceful than he seemed. He knew that he was sorry for Xu Fan, and there were too many things that had to be hidden in his heart. But he really couldn't bear some possible dangers, and he didn't want the country to be divided because of the conflict between him and Xu Fan.

Xu Fan supported him because he believed that he had ideological influence and intimate friendship for the student he taught since childhood. He believed that this student would eventually lead the country to his own big goal. Maybe the means are different, maybe the rhythm is different, but this nation and this country will not derail.

But if he knew that his student's spirit hun was replaced by an adult who was strange to another time and space, and that person had independent thoughts and judgments, and his own goals, what would Xu Fan do? This marshal who once killed his classmates and brothers without hesitation due to differences in ideas, would he destroy his relatives again because of his deep foundation and prestige?

Xu Fan was trusted by his father, and no one knew how many cards he had hidden. Zheng Yu thought about the night in Beijing, wherever Xu Fan's telegram went, all senior officers of the National Defense Forces obeyed the orders, and even the Navy had already launched the orders without orders in the south to prepare to welcome him south. The scenes of support from various southern provinces couldn't help but feel cold.

There are four entrepreneurs, and now this is the only one who still exists. Can you take it lightly?

"Uncle, as you said, although this country seems to be rich, the internal problems and contradictions have not been reduced by half." Zheng Yu took a deep breath and said slowly, "But no matter what, my goal will not change: take the national democratic path of compromised by all classes under the highest arbitration, and gradually promote the democratic development under the premise of control. 1 "I will not use military control or mutant military control to simplify the economy, society and politics. 1. Zheng Yu looked at Xu Fan "The development trend of society is not becoming simpler, but becoming more and more complex.

To achieve so-called stability and harmony through social simplification is to push society backwards and to a mutated small country with few people. Policy naturally relies on violent suppression and thoughts to fool the people, that is, to play with the weak people and the wisdom of Confucianism, Taoism and Law for thousands of years."

The breeze gently caresses the water surface, and fish are wandering happily between the shimmering light.

Xu Fan quietly looked at this student who seemed to be increasingly puzzled, but always felt that the tacit understanding between them became stronger and stronger...
