"The country is difficult, the court is difficult, but we have a wise emperor, and as a minister of the Qing Dynasty, I can be proud of having such a wise emperor. Since the emperor wants to reform the law and strengthen the country, the minister will naturally support it 100%. Whoever dares to object is a rebellious minister. Then the governor of Taiwan, Wang Guorui, will definitely not let him go!"

Just such a short one hundred and one words, it expresses Wang Guorui's attitude. And the chief patted the Emperor Guangxu's flattery, and then showed himself that whoever dares to stop the reform is a rebellious minister, and Wang Guorui, a "loyal minister" of the court, will never let him go.

And it was just this short one hundred and one characters, but it set off a huge wave in the land of China. Because in the hearts of the vast majority of ordinary people in China, Wang Guorui is still a courtier of the Qing Dynasty, because he is the governor of Taiwan. But the vast majority of people do not know in their hearts that Taiwan has secretly signed a special administrative region treaty with the Manchu Qing, and Taiwan is already almost an independent region. Although these things cannot be hidden from those who have a certain status, most of the common people do not know, and those scholars are not very clear about the specific situation inside.

But after receiving this news, the morale of the reformers increased greatly, and the quarrel became even more merry. After all, they have someone to support them, they have a backer, and they are even a governor-level backer. Wang Guorui defeated the Japanese invaders and was a hero in China, so many reformers also cheered, obviously feeling that his reform and reform is a major event. And next, they hope that under the leadership of the emperor and the support of Wang Guorui's force and economic strength, the reform can be carried out without hindrance.

"Kang Aiqing, this Wang Guorui is indeed a loyal minister. He said that if anyone dares to oppose the reform, An will be a rebellious minister. He is proud of having such a wise emperor as me. It seems that he is a great loyal minister!" Guangxu said.

After reading this telegram, Guangxu felt his whole body relaxed, and he was still proud of Wang Guorui's "loyalty". But Kang Youwei scoffed at Wang Guorui's loyalty in his heart, even though Wang Guorui was already his cheap son-in-law.

"Your Majesty, this Wang Guorui smashed the imperial decree with a pistol before!" Kang Youwei asked tentatively.

"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter, the previous edicts were made by the empress dowager, he should know this, so he slapped the empress dowager's face, not my face! He is still loyal in his heart." Guangxu said.

And Kang Youwei couldn't help but feel helpless for Guangxu's "naiveness". This emperor is really too naive, and he is obviously not a qualified political leader politically. And Kang Youwei regrets it now, did he choose the wrong boss and seek refuge with the wrong person? Follow such a politically naive person. Can it have a bright future? Don't look at Wang Guorui supporting them now, but in fact, Wang Guorui definitely has ulterior motives. However, the emperor still subconsciously believed that it was Wang Guorui's loyalty, which was indeed a bit naive.

However, Guangxu is naive, and others are not naive, such as the old lady in the Summer Palace.

"Bastard, the emperor is so naive? This is courting death! Such a naive emperor, why did the Ai family let him be the emperor at the beginning? Now, Wang Guorui wants us to fight on our own, and then give us a bad wind Lighting will-o'-the-wisps!" Cixi said angrily.

Emperor Guangxu was stupid. But Cixi is a veteran of many years of court struggles after all, so why doesn't he know what Wang Guorui means. Although Wang Guorui has a powerful army, it is obviously not strong enough for Wang Guorui to take over the mainland. Wang Guorui's relationship between Taiwan and the mainland is complicated, and Wang Guorui cannot do without the support of the mainland. For example, Taiwan needs steel and human resources, and these need to be obtained from the mainland. There are not many resources in Taiwan to mine. In particular, Taiwan's manpower is only about 2 million people, which is still not enough compared to the 400 million people in the mainland.

Therefore, the human resources that Wang Guorui needs must be provided from the mainland. But the mainland is afraid of Wang Guorui's rebellion, so it must not stimulate Wang Guorui too much. Once Wang Guorui is too stimulated, I am afraid that Wang Guorui will rebel immediately, and there will be no peace in mainland China. The reason why Wang Guorui didn't rebel immediately. That's because if he expands too fast, he will inevitably leave a lot of feudal remnants, which naturally cannot be solved well. So he has to come slowly so that he can have enough capital to take over the mainland.

The Manchu Qing government in the mainland was also very wary of Wang Guorui before, and the mainland was actually single-minded in guarding against Wang Guorui. After all, Wang Guorui retained the status of Chinese territory and did not establish a country independently. Wang Guorui had this idea. It can be said that Sima Zhao's heart is known to everyone, and naturally it is to prepare for the legal seizure of the central government in the future. But Man Qingming knew that this was a bitter pill, but he still had to swallow it by himself, after all, they couldn't bear the loss of land once ceded. So they knew that Wang Guorui had bad intentions, so they could only pinch their noses to admit it. But they must strictly guard against Wang Guorui, so as to prevent Wang Guorui from having the opportunity to seize the central power.

But now what makes Cixi feel angry is that Guangxu has hooked up with Wang Guorui. Guangxu wants to reform and reform, and then he can regain his power. However, Guangxu chose to cooperate with Wang Guorui, which greatly increased the strength of the reformers, and they had force as their backing. Although this force is far away in Taiwan, it's like a sword has been chosen on top of everyone's heads, and it's unknown when it will fall.

Compared with the province of Taiwan, the mainland government of the Manchu Qing Dynasty was actually stronger in overall strength. The reason why they did not attack Taiwan was because the gains outweighed the losses. And they can all accept this nominally unified special administrative region plan, so this is the best way. But the mainland should wholeheartedly resist Taiwan and Wang Guorui's erosion. But at this time, Emperor Guangxu did not hesitate to cooperate with the "enemy" in order to regain power. This is simply absurd.

Cixi was angry and hated, this Guangxu was so short-sighted, he couldn't see that Wang Guorui was the serious trouble, so he chose to cooperate with Wang Guorui. Guangxu and Cixi are now fighting. Wang Guorui knew that Guangxu's side was not strong enough, so he took the initiative to support Guangxu, so that they could achieve a balanced posture as much as possible. But now Wang Guorui's thoughts can be guessed by Cixi with her ass, that is, to support Guangxu and let him fight with Cixi. This kind of game is not complicated, but Guangxu really fell for it.

Guangxu was blinded by profit, and he ignored this in order to regain power. No matter how much Cixi and Guangxu fought, they were both Manchus and nobles of the Qing Dynasty. Since they are all nobles of the Qing Dynasty, no matter how fierce their internal struggles are, it is the same thing. But in the face of the rise of the Han governors, they should be of one mind. However, Guangxu was so stupid that he chose to cooperate with Wang Guorui, so this was tantamount to betraying the collective interests of the Manchu nobles.

The internal friction between Cixi and Guangxu is obviously depleting the interests of the Manchu nobles themselves, and then Wang Guorui can take the opportunity to drive a wedge between them and the Manchu nobles themselves, and finally reap the benefits of the fishermen. But now Guangxu has also been tricked, and Cixi and Guangxu have become so difficult to ride a tiger. Guangxu was determined to regain power, and he did not hesitate to cooperate with the Han governor, Wang Guorui. And Cixi will definitely not hand over power, so they will inevitably fight, so both sides can't stop.

"Xiao Lizi, do you think the emperor is suitable to be a full-fledged emperor?" Cixi asked.

When Li Lianying heard this, she was also shocked. He didn't expect Cixi to be moved to abolish Li. This time Guangxu disappointed him too much, and he did not hesitate to cooperate with "foreign enemies" for the sake of power. This was enough to make Cixi feel like abolishing Lili. For these Manchu aristocrats who did not regard themselves as Chinese, cooperating with the Han people for the sake of rights meant betraying the nation, which was a "Manchu traitor". And this is equivalent to the behavior of Chinese people cooperating with foreigners for power and selling their own interests, at least in the eyes of high-level Manchu nobles like Cixi. They don't think of themselves as Chinese, that's why they have such an idea.

Because Guangxu had already betrayed her own Manchu~lightnovelpub.net~, in Cixi's heart, she already felt that it was not suitable to be a Manchu emperor, which moved her to abolish Li. As for what Cixi will do next, even Li Lianying dare not make wild guesses.

"Queen Mother, the slave is just a servant, a bitch, how dare you advise the Queen Mother on this matter!" Li Lianying said immediately.

Cixi also nodded, it was normal for Li Lianying to dare not answer such a big question. Even Cixi had to think about it carefully, and if he himself had to be careful, after all, the matter of abolishing the emperor was not a trivial matter, even if Cixi held the power in his hands, he had to take it easy. After all, emperors are also legitimate rulers, and it has not been so easy to abolish and establish emperors since ancient times, so there are many things to consider.

"Forget it, the Ai family will continue to look at the situation! If the emperor goes too far, then don't blame the Ai family. The Ai family is also for the country of the Aixinjueluo family!" Cixi said.

In the end, Cixi still planned to take a look at the situation and decide not to abolish the emperor so early. After all, this matter was too big, and Cixi could not make the final decision all at once. (To be continued.) xh118
