1787 are a bunch of smart people
In the late Qing Dynasty without Xiao Letian, the Japanese Sixth was really the first person in the Qing Dynasty to be proficient in Western Affairs. If it weren't for the power struggle with Cixi in the end, and he was forced to retire due to his poor health, then the diplomacy of the Qing Dynasty would be really not Li Hongzhang.
This is a man with dry things in his stomach, and he is extremely concerned about the situation in Europe. This is not the short-sighted Eight Banners waste, Yi? Once a country studied the history of the rise of Europe and analyzed the characteristics of each country.
Although the channels for information he obtained were fragmented and true and false were not systematic enough, it was already rare in the late Qing Dynasty.
"Go back and tell the queen mother not to be so anxious. Xiao Letian's bad chess will always be the time for him to suffer! Are the French easy to mess with? That's the second strong country after Britain. How did Napoleon III come to power? That was the nobles who held the restoration and came to power!"
Li Lianying widened her eyes and listened to Prince Gong telling him the truth. This was the first time he had heard of such a long history as a foreign country. It was really interesting.
France has made great contributions to modern world history. First of all, the Great Revolution overthrew the monarchy and shocked the world. Even the emperor crowned by the Pope could behead him, which is the most serious challenge to imperial and religious rights.
At that time, the kings of Europe put aside their grudges and collectively paid and sent troops to punish France.
The facts proved that the monarchy was not so easy to overthrow, and the restoration power was also very powerful. The restoration of Napoleon III was successful because he found a balance between the conservative aristocratic factions and the advanced capitalist factions, especially the army he controlled also played a stable role.
Napoleon's claim to be emperor guaranteed the interests of the nobles. At least they felt that Napoleon was the same person as them, and France was still the empire.
Napoleon actively explored the outside world and actively used troops overseas to satisfy the interests of capitalists. With more colonies, there were more opportunities to make money, and capitalists also thought Napoleon III was good.
Although the people at the bottom still live in a difficult situation, the national order is still there. France often wins a few battles overseas and can satisfy the people's false desire for a big country.
Balance, because Napoleon III found the balance point of governing the country, his restoration was successful.
But now Xiao Letian touched France's sensitive nerves, and the balance was about to be broken.
"Xiao Letian's Chinese people will rob the interests of the French early and lately. Now the British and French businessmen in Shanghai are already resentful to the Chinese businessmen..."
"And at this moment, Xiao Letian abused and killed... Remember what I said, tell the Queen Mother Xiao Letian torture the nobles. This behavior has touched the bottom line of the French nobles... Even the nobles who have a grudge against Molière must stand on his side at this moment!"
"It's so cruel. I poured people into cement and made them into kneeling like a burial in front of the God of War Temple! What did Xiao Letian think? Could it be that he was crazy about gaining and losing his mind. What else could he do to kill people in this way besides completely angering the Emperor of France and the entire France?"
"The French will definitely take revenge. Napoleon III will definitely take revenge in Molière's death, because if he does not take revenge, he will lose the support of all the nobles. How can he rule? So the war must start early or late..."
"Hahaha... I don't have a navy in the Qing Dynasty, but France has it! Don't worry, when the French army besieged Liuqiu Xiao Letian and had no time to take care of themselves, we can start from Tanggu and Jiangnan to all Xiao Letian's industries! My new army will naturally avenge my Qing Dynasty!"
"Go, let the Queen Mother feel at ease. I will never forget it if I am in this Qing Dynasty..."
Li Lianying was completely stunned by hearing this. He almost recorded the truth with a pen. He stared at him and wanted to engrave every word in his heart, for fear of forgetting one.
Finally, I have an explanation to the Queen Mother, let’s die a few people in the Forbidden City.
The facts proved that the Japanese Sixth judged that he really couldn't enter the palace today. After a while, the housekeeper of the Prince's Mansion trotted in and said, "Your Majesty, French Minister Goldmir and Counselor Borone are asking for a meeting... They looked angry and all the same green!"
"Hahaha... Okay, Lao Li, go back to the palace to serve. I'll talk to these French big noses. The weather is really good today. Hahaha, it's finally time for Big nose to ask me. It's so refreshing, so refreshing!"
Li Lianying went all the way out, and when he walked to the second gate, he happened to meet the minister and counselor. Li Lianying was also a political celebrity. The minister and counselor also gave him a hat-taking ceremony. The three of them even exchanged a few words before they separated.
Looking at the back of the foreign devil, Li Lianying was in a complicated mood, "Fuck... I have time to ask for help! What about the arrogance in the past?"
Li Lianying sent the peace of mind to Chuxiu Palace, and Cixi naturally smiled and was in a good mood. No one knows what agreement the Japanese Liu and the French reached.
However, it was not just them that the smart people in the Qing Dynasty. The couple who had an affair on Jingshan were also very insightful about the current situation.
After a while, the two of them walked slowly on the Jingshan Road. The entire Jingshan was protected by countless eunuchs and guards loyal to Ci'an and were not afraid of any degree of leaks.
Ci'an just received a secret report from the Japanese Operation Six today. When she heard that Yi Yi had received the ministers of Tsarist Russia and France in one day, the smart woman sneered, "It's really a mantis stalking the cicada and the oriole behind me! My brother-in-law is going to fish in troubled waters again!"
Fuqing held a copy of the telegram from the Zongli Yamen. His status in the Zongli Yamen was second only to Yi, and he was a second-rank official. However, due to Yi, Fuqing was now responsible for the construction of the telegram from the Qing Dynasty and the inspection work of special zones across the country.
To put it bluntly, it is to make Fuqing a member of the Qing Dynasty running back and forth, and not be able to live in the capital for a long time, marginalize him and prevent him from establishing his own faction in the imperial capital.
Fuqing is not strong enough now. He can definitely not win with Yi. Don’t talk about Yi. He still has soldiers, so Fuqing can only go through the Qing Dynasty to investigate the new policy and follow the construction of the telegram network. The two prime ministers made each other not want to see each other, and they all had a pure ear.
But Fu Qing was a senior official in charge of the Telegraph Bureau after all, and he was responsible for the telegraph station in the Zongli Yamen. Therefore, the top secret telegrams coming and going from the Qing Dynasty were not encrypted for him.
In terms of intelligence, Fuqing's resources are not as small as Yi?
"What the Queen Mother meant is... Prince Gong is going to join forces with France?"
They are all smart people. From the surface, they can touch the whole body with one blow. This kind of control over the overall situation is indeed something that ordinary people can do.
Fu Qing sighed inwardly and said, "Is Xiao Letian crazy? Why have he created so many enemies for himself? The Tsarist Russia has not had any trouble yet, so why did he offend France like this again..."
Hum... Ci'an snorted coldly, "The Ai family doubts whether Xiao Letian is Yi's accomplice! Why are they all helping Yi step by step? How come they take power?"
"I heard that France is having an upset with Prussia. Now I can't draw all my strength to deal with Xiao Letian. So he must find an ally in East Asia to restrain Xiao Letian..."
"Who will you choose to choose? Fools know that they have to choose Tsarist Russia and the Qing Dynasty, but Tsarist Russia has no soldiers at the moment and has little effect. These French big noses can only choose our Qing Dynasty to restrain Xiao Letian!"
"It's just a trick to choose the Qing Dynasty! After all, it's not an alliance with the Japanese Six!"
"Does your brother-in-law have a brain problem? Do you make wedding clothes for Yi? I think he is not powerful enough!"
Ci'an's voice grew louder and his face turned pale with anger.
