Less than 24 hours after Xu Yingku's master left, newspapers and periodicals in mainland China urgently printed a special issue, and when this special issue came out, it immediately caused a public outcry.

"Governor Li Hongzhang of Guangdong and Guangxi, Governor Zhang Zhidong of Huguang, Governor Xu Yingkui of Fujian and Zhejiang, Governor Liu Kunyi of Liangjiang, and Governor Yuan Shikai of Shandong are conspiring to sign a treaty with foreigners, to protect themselves when the country is invaded by foreigners, not to participate in imperial orders, and to be partially neutral? "

"The major governors are unwilling to participate in the battle between the imperial court and the foreigners, and choose partial neutrality in the region, and do not send troops to the capital to support?"

"After the fall of the capital, the governors conspired to support Li Hongzhang as the president and continue to rule the southeast half of the country?"

The publication of these special issues by these newspapers caused an uproar in the government and the opposition. Because the war has not even started yet, some people are preparing for it. They even signed a treaty with foreigners to maintain partial neutrality. This is definitely against the decree! According to common sense, once the central government goes to war with a foreign country, the local government must unconditionally support the central government and then send troops to fight. But now, instead of sending troops, the officials in these places want to maintain the so-called partial neutrality as a condition for protecting their own regional interests. This is simply a betrayal, a betrayal of the central government, and disobedience to the orders of the central government. This is simply deliberate, why doesn't this cause a public outcry? This is already an open betrayal.

As for the latter, once the central capital is breached, the governors in the south will support Li Hongzhang as the president, and then continue to rule the southeast half of the country. This is an out-and-out betrayal, this is an out-and-out betrayal of the country and the court.

"Bastard, how dare these guys betray the imperial court?" Cixi looked at the newspapers and suddenly became furious.

"Queen Mother, calm down, calm down!" Li Lianying hurriedly shouted to comfort her.

But Cixi was really almost dizzy this time. These local governors actually colluded secretly and chose to implement Southeast Mutual Protection. They even came up with suggestions on how to deal with the aftermath after they escaped once the capital was lost. That is Li Hongzhang as the president. This is going to change the dynasty, this Cixi is really furious. Cixi is not dead yet, and has not been driven out of the capital by foreign devils, but the local governors have already made a plan here. This is simply infuriating. My "father" is not dead yet, and my subordinates are waiting to inherit the property. How can you let this "father" Cixi tolerate it?

"The governors of these places will all be killed!" Cixi shouted.

"Queen Mother, we have already sent a telegram to question those local governors. They haven't responded yet. They are all silent now. They don't have this treaty. Since they didn't admit it, they haven't denied it. So, it's hard to judge now." Li Lianying Said.

Cixi immediately said angrily: "What else do you need to say? They are so guilty in their hearts, so they can't argue with it."

And outside the mansion of Li Hongzhang, Governor of Guangdong and Guangxi, many people also gathered, and then wanted to ask whether the news about Dongnan Mutual Protection existed, which caused everyone's public opinion to be in an uproar. So now everyone is starting to question Li Hongzhang one after another, asking Li Hongzhang for an answer.

"Li Hongzhang, you are a traitor. You actually intend to rebel. It seems that you want to change the dynasty and become the president, right?" Immediately, an old rotten scholar said bitterly.

There are also many young students who are also following outside, and this is obviously because everyone wants to ask Li Hongzhang to give an answer, whether this Dongnan Hubao exists. In this era, people of insight in mainland China have not yet been completely disappointed with the Manchu Qing, so they still recognize the Manchu Qing as the central government. But now someone actually did such a thing of betraying the imperial court, which obviously shocked everyone. So everyone came to ask, hoping to find out what happened. They crowded outside the Governor's Mansion of Guangdong and Guangxi, and hoped that Li Hongzhang could come out and explain whether the Southeast Mutual Protection existed. In this way, Li Hongzhang betrayed the court. Have you chosen to establish your own country?

"Our Master Li said that scholars should study hard and not talk about state affairs. You are not officials or officials, how can you talk about court affairs casually? So, you should go back quickly, and you can't mess around. If you continue to be crowded Outside this mansion, then our Lord Li will also send people to disperse." Immediately, Li Hongzhang's subordinates said.

But those people from Guangdong were not fools, of course they knew that Li Hongzhang was going to drive them away. What kind of students can't talk about state affairs indiscriminately? This is the old calendar of which year, let alone scholars in this era. Even ordinary people can talk about it casually. But Li Hongzhang actually came up with this reason to prevaricate everyone. Didn't he not answer at all? Li Hongzhang was unwilling to answer at all, he could only use this method to deal with everyone. But those students were not so easy to compromise, and they started gathering one after another.

It has to be said that Manchu Qing's dominance over the people has declined very much, and not many people obeyed the original prohibition. No one cares about keeping hair but not hair, and all kinds of broken rules. In this late Qing Dynasty, the so-called keeping hair but not head is just a joke. In the coastal areas, many young people have also cut off their braids, and no one cares about them. As early as decades ago, many young children studying in the United States had their braids cut off, and the Manchu Qing did not do anything to them in the end. It is conceivable that many so-called bans had become useless by the late Qing Dynasty.

So now the imperial court originally forbids everyone to gather to discuss state affairs, but now those who are a little bit educated also start to talk about state affairs, one by one. The situation of Dongnan Mutual Insurance this time is simply Chiguoguo's betrayal, this is definitely a betrayal. Therefore, everyone began to condemn this behavior of betraying the court, and many people also began to curse Li Hongzhang.

"Li Hongzhang, you traitorous minister, come out! You actually want to betray the imperial court and intend to split the country, you deserve to die!" an old rotten scholar shouted.

But at this time, a group of people immediately came out of Li Hongzhang's Governor's Mansion of Guangdong and Guangxi. They held a water and fire stick in their hands, and immediately started to drive away the people gathered outside the door.

"Call me and drive them away!" Li Hongzhang's butler shouted.

"Ah-ah-"

The people who participated in the rally were all beaten to death, and they were all scattered soon. Don't think that these officials need the support of scholars one by one, but in fact they don't have scholars at all. They have long forgotten in their hearts that they were also scholars back then. And those students have already become props for them to use, so Li Hongzhang will never pay attention to them. It is easy for these students to be driven away, so there is no need to save face for them.

Anyway, at the end of the Qing Dynasty, those students who simply studied Confucianism no longer had any political influence. Compared with those students in the past hundreds of years, they had no power at all, so why did Li Hongzhang give them face? Just drive them away, don't bother with so many.

"My God! There is no law of heaven anymore?" "Yes! There is no law of heaven after all." "The governors and ministers of these places have betrayed the imperial court. It is unreasonable!" "They actually want to split the country and establish another country. , These are all rebellious officials and thieves." "Is there any hope?" "Is there any hope for my Qing Dynasty? Who will punish these rebellious officials and thieves?"...

Many scholars also began to cry, obviously disappointed that these feudal officials had betrayed the imperial court so much. As for those ordinary people, they also felt a little bit sad in their hearts, because these officials who feudal borders actually wanted to betray the imperial court and establish another country. Although ordinary people may not understand the meaning of this, they do know that these officials in frontiers actually chose to split the country, which is also very bad in everyone's heart. China has also been a country that advocates unity since ancient times, and they all believe that national unity is right. But now these common people have actually heard the idea of ​​the feudal officials wanting to split the south and establish a country on their own, which made those common people very disappointed.

Once the country is divided, it will definitely bring about a steady stream of civil wars, and at that time, people will definitely be devastated. Therefore, the common people did not want the country to split, and they still supported the central government of the Qing Dynasty.

"Our governor of Guangdong and Guangxi, Mr. Li, said ~lightnovelpub.net~ that they will definitely make a choice in line with public opinion." Li Hongzhang's people said.

"This is **** public opinion. When did Li Hongzhang ask ordinary people like us? He is soliciting public opinion, **** public opinion!"

Those scholars also began to yell at Li Hongzhang and other frontier officials for polling the public opinion, and these scholars claimed to have won the public opinion without asking them.

However, although these scholars are cursing, they have nothing to do, because they all know that they are just ordinary literati, how can they have the right to influence the thoughts of those officials in the frontier? The power possessed by those feudal officials is enormous, so naturally they dare not act recklessly.

"The latest news is that the governor of Taiwan, Wang Guorui, made a statement denouncing these governors who ignored the country's dangers and only cared about their own interests. Moreover, Wang Guorui claimed that as long as the court needed them, they could send troops to Jingqin Wang at any time. Taiwan will always be a part of China. Anything divisive would be done."

"Taiwan sent a message?" Many people were surprised that Taiwan would release a news at this time. (To be continued.)
