1118 relieved

A word woke up the dreamer, and Weng Tonghe's words cheered up everyone in the Dongnuan Pavilion. When they found that the sharp sword hanging above their heads was not actually coming towards them, the horror and anxiety just now suddenly became empty.

Weng Tonghe's analysis is reasonable. Everyone present is Lao Yu's political masters. If you think from the perspective of Xiao Letian, you can also know that the timing of the introduction of the Chinese order is not so good.

It is too rapid. It looks prosperous on the outside but has not been well done with many links inside. Coupled with the military conflict with Russia, this is not the best time to seek political change.

In history, such a revolution in political, people's hearts and culture was carried out, generally only two situations could occur.

Either you can't survive if you don't fight for life and death, or you can't live without fighting, or you can't even see all the opposition forces inside and outside have been suppressed, and the leader's reputation is so high that no one can challenge it. Only in these two situations will such a large revolution occur, and there is no third situation.

It is obvious that Xiao Letian's Ryukyu is not between the two. Xiao Letian's power has only been established for more than four years. Although he relies on his own powerful personal charm to gather countless people's hearts, the larger the chariot, the more time it takes to run-in.

Moreover, the older generation of followers has been fully integrated, and the new group of followers still need to start from scratch and achieve complete unity within four years? That is simply impossible.

As for the fact that life and death are not revolutionized, it will not be able to survive. This situation cannot be affected by Xiao Letian. After all, new forces are gushing out like the new sun, and everything is moving upward. The three elements of people, wealth and law are all surging upwards. Xiao Letian can choose a better time to change in the future!

Everything proves that Xiao Letian must have encountered a very big crisis, and it seems that only Xiao Letian himself has realized this crisis.

The conversations in the Dongnuan Pavilion were getting deeper and deeper. To be honest, the senior officials of the court in the late Qing Dynasty were not stupid. These elite-educated politicians still had a lot of ink in their stomachs.

Why did these elite politicians in the late Qing Dynasty leave many stupid impressions on history? In fact, it is ultimately due to information asymmetry.

That was a major change that had not been seen in three thousand years. The rapid social development and change made Europeans feel a little confused, let alone the semi-closed Qing Dynasty.

Facts have proved that Europeans are not superhumans who can predict the future. They often do a lot of stupid things when facing a foggy future.

For example, when the post-mounted rifled rifle replaced the pre-mounted gun, Prussian generals once expressed unusual opposition, "People eat with their mouths, how can they eat with their butts?" Look, sometimes ignorance is not the patent of Asians, and Europeans are also not stupid.

When Austrian engineer Joseph Lesell promoted his propeller technology in 1839, officials from countless countries collectively mocked, "Can such a small piece of broken iron push the steamboat forward? Only paddle wheels, only paddle wheels are the king! The others are evil religions..."

Even the British most proud naval warship design capabilities have actually gone through a long detour. In the pre-dreadnought era, the arrangement of a main gun turret alone has been quarreling for decades.

The Dingyuan and Zhenyuan armored battleships, which were deeply impressed by the Chinese, actually used the design idea that was eliminated in the pre-dreadnought era, with the main guns arranged left and right instead of the central axis.

It can be said that confusion in the face of the future is a common problem for all mankind. It does not mean that that nation is absolutely perfect. In fact, happiness needs to be compared, and good and bad are also relative.

In the competition among the world's nations, 61 points will always be better than 60 points, and there will be no perfect situation of pursuing 100 points.

In the great era of the Industrial Revolution, what Europe did was just slightly better than other nations. It was definitely not that the European nation had achieved 100% or 100% perfection.

The Qing Dynasty was very pitiful. In the exams of that era, he only relied on 55 points, but the cheerful European civilization gave a 60-point answer. So the final outcome was that the passing student began to ravage the backward student of the Qing Dynasty.

Fortunately, the Qing Dynasty was able to submit a 55-point answer, so modern China was treated as a semi-colonial. As for the nations such as Africa and South America that scored zeros, they were basically excluded from the scope of humanity by Europeans.

In the era of great changes that have not been seen in three thousand years, the importance of information is at stake for every nation. Once these smart brains in the Donghun Pavilion have sufficient information, they will naturally be able to break through the mystery and become enlightened and have a clear understanding of the situation in front of them.

Not only that, at four o'clock in the afternoon, a dense sound of footsteps suddenly came from outside the Yangxin Palace. Zhang Jing, a Military Affairs Office, was running over like crazy under the escort of two young eunuchs.

"Emergency power! Ryukyu's urgent power! Your Majesty and the Minister Fuqing of the ** will send an urgent power... The army mutiny occurred in Ryukyu, and the Japanese sword-drawing camp roared!"

"What?" The two empress dowagers and all the adults stood up at that moment. Ci'an was even excited and kept dizzy in front of him. The palace maid beside him quickly helped him.

"Suhexiang wine... pour a cup of Suhexiang wine for Ai's family! A big happy event! As expected, Xiao Letian's Chinese order really caused trouble..."

When everyone opened the telegram, they read the shocking content in it in a glance. Although the information about the sword roaring was shocking, Fu Qing and Zai Chun's analysis of the Chinese order was even more impressive.

Especially the reason why Master Qing San’s soft words and gentle persuaded His Majesty not only convinced the little emperor, but even the imperial elites in the Dongnuan Pavilion breathed a sigh of relief.

At the end, even Cixi had to sigh and said, "I used to misread Qing Lao San. I thought he was just a general. I didn't expect that there was a bit of a trick in my stomach!" After saying that, she glanced at Ci'an with a strange look. There was no secret in the Forbidden City, and that little thing could not be hidden from Cixi.

Ci'an ignored Cixi's soft knife. He drank a glass of Suhexiang wine and said with relief, "It seems that your Majesty's safety is no problem. Xiao Letian issued the Chinese order, which should be to start a new life instead of taking over the Qing Dynasty... That's good, that's good! Your Majesty's safety is better than anything else!"

Cixi rarely agrees with Ci'an. She nodded and said, "Sister is right. There should be no major changes for the time being, but we have to strive for self-improvement! My opinion is that we must continue to practice the new army in Xishan, and the Qing Dynasty's navy must also find ways to form in advance. We can't be so passive anymore..."

As he was talking, the eunuch guards came in and knelt down, "Report to the Empress Dowager, the foreign minister Yang Zhi brought him here, waiting for the Empress Dowager to summon him!"

"Well! Why are you so slow? He came after he was almost there? What a waste... Forget it, since you are here, let him in..."
