The richest man in the world

Chapter 204 Governor of Zhili Hu Zhongtang

The imperial minister won a great victory outside, opened up his territory, recovered his lost land, and protected the vassal states. In any feudal dynasty in China, this is a very important event, and there must be a special ceremony to celebrate.

If it weren't for the founding of the People's Republic of China, especially in the so-called prosperous times, the specifications of this ceremony would be higher and more cumbersome.

In addition, the imperial minister was Hu Chuyuan, and the war almost determined whether the throne of Emperor Guangxu could be truly stabilized, and the ceremony became more solemn, and the specifications were close to the Guangxu wedding two years ago.

It was not until the end of the afternoon that the whole ceremony gradually ended and came to an end.

Hu Chuyuan received the reward in front of the Taihe Hall, awarded the new official uniform of the first-class member, the military minister, the title of the first-class viscount of the university, the title of first-class viscount and a cloud cavalry lieutenant, the crown prince Taibao, and the second-eyed flower and yellow horse coat.

He became a college scholar, which was a little beyond Hu Chuyuan's expectation. The news he got in advance should be co-sponsored college scholar.

After Zuo Zongtang's death, the position of the university scholar of Tirenge has been vacant. Li Hongzao, Weng Tongyu, He Jing, Zeng Guozheng, Liu Kunyi... All of them wanted it. Unexpectedly, they actually took advantage of Hu Chuyuan.

After all the ceremonies, Hu Chuyuan returned to the seal.

This night, he continued to live in the Yongjun Palace.

Emperor Guangxu gave the Yongjun Prince's Mansion to Hu Pinyuan, which in a sense became the residence of Hu Chuyuan's coming to the capital.

In this way, Hu Pinyuan's real father-in-law, Prince Chun, can often come to see his daughter, drink with Hu Pinyuan, chat, spy on the Hu family, and attract the Hu family.

This layer of marriage relationship is of great significance to Prince Alcohol and Emperor Guangxu. They also regard this as a strong in-law relationship, which has held the whole Hu family.

Early in the morning, Emperor Guangxu suspended the court discussion and asked Hu Chuyuan to go to the Qianqing Palace to discuss major events early.

Big deal?

What else is the big deal?

Hu Chuyuan was puzzled. In his royal gold-drawn carriage, he just changed the pulling horsepower to four horses, two horses each.

His courtesy is extremely special. The carriage can enter the Forbidden City directly from Donghua Gate. There is no need to get off the horse and almost no inspection. When he arrives outside the Qianqing Gate, he must get off the horse for inspection.

Of course, with his current status and power, especially holding the Tirenge University Scholar, he has become one of the only six in the empire, so no eunuchs and chambermaids dare to really search him.

Even his guard with a knife outside the Qianqing Gate has increased to six people, which is almost the same as that of Prince Gong.

Entering the Qianqing Palace, as soon as Hu Chuyuan looked up, he saw that Prince Gong and Prince Chun were there, and Erle Hebu, Yan Jingming, Zhang Zhiwan and Zhang Baixi were also there.

Bao Yu, He Jing and Pan Zuyin are all dead. Li Hongzao was forced to retire from office. There are only a few people left among the military aircraft ministers. Zhang Baixi is the foreman of the military aircraft Zhang Jing, who is also the head of the small military aircraft. Emperor Guangxu carries the most special cronies, and his authority is equivalent to a military aircraft minister.

So, he is also there.

At a glance, today's court meeting is really a big deal, but other idle people don't have to participate.

Hu Chuyuan walked steadily to worship. Emperor Guangxu's mood seemed to stay in the excitement of yesterday. He personally came out of the dragon chair and helped Hu Chuyuan up.

In a flash, Emperor Guangxu is also 19 years old. As always, he is handsome. What can't hide in Junxiu is the weakness in his heart.

If he is a woman, he will definitely be dozens of times more beautiful than his queen... Where's the evil man!

In more than ten years of upbringing, Cixi has completely erased the murderous, affinity, gentleness, weakness that he should have as a man, but he has a strong desire to have a strong country and the impulse to control the country by himself.

He is complex, but also fragile.

When he stood up, Hu Chuyuan took a special look at Emperor Guangxu, and there were many strange sighs and sighs in his heart, as well as some doubts.

At this time, Guangxu Emperor Zai is very special to let people sit down. Today, everyone here has seats. Obviously, they are prepared in advance, and the chairs are also brand new.

Everyone hesitated. The mellow prince, who knew his son's heart best, sat down with his head first, and the others sat down one after another.

Emperor Guangxu said, "I've thought about it, and it will become a custom in the future. You can sit down when you come in. Let's sit down and discuss national affairs slowly."

This is the privilege he gave.

Everyone is very grateful and thanked the emperor one after another.

Emperor Guangxu said, "The war in the year of Geng Yin is finally over. Let's not talk about financial matters in a hurry. What I want to say today is very simple. It was just a small country, and it was not strong a few years ago. Compared with North Korea, I'm afraid it's not as good as North Korea. How have we become so strong over the years? If it hadn't been for Lord Hu's secret guard, I'm afraid we wouldn't be able to win this battle. The battle was won, but I was anxious but afraid that I couldn't sleep well all day.

At this point, he turned to ask Hu Chuyuan, "Hu Aiqing, do you have any ideas about this?"

Hu Chuyuan thought for a moment and replied, "In return to the emperor, other things... Weichen is not in a hurry for the time being. As far as Weichen knows, although this is a great defeat, the British and French countries will continue to assist it. With the current political situation, talents and technology, I'm afraid that the reorganization will be completed in ten years, and I have the conditions to fight with us again in the East China Sea.

Listening to this, everyone has a chill.

If you don't want to be afraid, it's really false. Especially before the New Year, Liu Mingchuan almost didn't resist. In front of him, the elites of the Huai army were almost wiped out. In order to win the Japanese version, the Qing court has taken out all its strength. If the Battle of Longchuan fails, it can only negotiate again to lose money.

Prince mellow said, "Isn't it?"

Hu Chuyuan shook his head and said, "Your Majesty, you believe me. If we want to keep the Northeast, we will have a war with Russia within ten years. At that time, we will definitely take the opportunity to revenge. If we are afraid of Tsarist Russia and don't want to fight this war and give up the Northeast to Tsarist Russia, within 20 years, Russia and Japan will also be infected with Zhili, Taiwan and Jiaodong Peninsula. Your Majesty, if you are not in our clan, your heart must be different. Our Qing Dynasty is vast and rich in land. These powers and foreign countries want it every day, and the most urgent one is Russia.

Emperor Guangxu suddenly put down the teacup, let out a bang, and said with hatred, "I will fight with them, whether it is Russia or Britain, as long as they want to seize the land left by our ancestors, we will fight with them. Although Hong Kong is small, as long as I still have one breath, I will take it back sooner or later.

In case Zhang Zhi was excited for a moment, he knelt on the ground and said respectfully, "Your Majesty, I will swear allegiance to you!"

"The emperor's saint!"

Everyone can only sing together and kneel down again.

Hu Chuyuan gritted his teeth and cursed in his heart, thinking that Zhang Zhiwan's dog slaves were also a fucking grass on the wall.

Emperor Guangxu was really happy and felt that he was really supported by these ministers. He helped him up one by one, and he was also quite encouraged.

He turned his head and said to Hu Chuyuan, "Hu Aiqing, I know in my heart that in the literary and martial arts of the Manchu Dynasty, the person who really has the talent of Guan Zhong is you. I want to be Duke Huan of Qi. Do you dare to be Guan Zhong? I want to be Duke Xiao of Qin. Do you dare to be Shang Yang?

This...?

Hu Chuyuan was a hundred surprises in his heart, and others were also surprised. They all felt that Emperor Guangxu was a little convulsion today!

Everyone couldn't help looking at Zhang Baixi, because he was the person who accompanied the emperor, but Zhang Baixi was silent and solemn.

Hu Chuyuan couldn't say no, so he could only get up and said, "Weichen should be willing, but... I don't know how the emperor intends to reform the government!"

Emperor Guangxu replied in a serious way: "Imitating this reform and reforming the political system is just a wild man. We can achieve such an achievement in the ten years of reform. If we, the central powers, if we can work hard to reform, after ten years, we must surpass the British and French countries and rank in the center of the world."

At this moment, he suddenly doesn't look like the Guangxu Emperor who Hu Chuyuan is familiar with, and he is a bit like a time-travel party.

This made Hu Chuyuan very uncomfortable. He lectured for more than a month. Although he helped Zai Tian clear his mind and understand the fundamental truth of governing the country, he did not emphasize the need for reform and reform.

The real mastermind behind the scenes can only be Zhang Baixi.

This person... has to pay attention.

Hu Chuyuan's mind also flashed with all kinds of ideas and reacted quickly. He immediately said, "The Meiji Restoration is indeed desirable. It is said that it is China's millennium vassal gang. It has been imitating our country. There are great similarities in all aspects. If they can reform successfully, the path they choose is indeed ours. Where to take. Looking at the long-term situation, it is very similar to the State of Qi. Although the reform was successful, it almost became a hegemony. If China imitates the State of Qin, it will soon become a real power.

When he finished speaking, Prince Chun's face was already a little gloomy.
