The Qing Dynasty and France were in a confrontation between the two countries. They were not strong at first, but now there is no one available. So how can this war be fought?

Li Hongzhang went to find his mentor Zeng Guofan. On the one hand, he wanted to hear his mentor's teachings, that is, how he should take sides in this war, and on the other hand, that is, whether his mentor Zeng Guofan could come out.

But it is obvious that Zeng Guofan has always been in the country. He saw the Qing court more thoroughly than Li Hongzhang. Zeng Guofan's words were very clear, that was, he decided not to come out of the mountain, and there was another meaning that neither Cixi nor Prince Gong would let him go out of the mountain.

As long as you make a contribution, Zeng Guofan's performance in the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom and later the "Suppression and Nian" was simply a great achievement. Such a person really couldn't make him make new contributions, because he really didn't know how to reward him.

In fact, I don’t know how to reward Zeng Guofan now, because before, when the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom was in trouble, Xianfeng once said, whoever destroyed the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom could be named a prince!

Prince, most of them belong to the Aisin Gioro family, or the great clan and surname among the Manchus, Zeng Guofan was a Han Chinese... So, this prince was not granted the title, and they did not respect the last emperor's wishes.

Fortunately, Zeng Guofan is a man who knows how to advance and retreat. He is still very happy that he has not been named a prince. Anyway, for the rest of his life, he will just live a peaceful and peaceful life.

But after this "teaching", Li Hongzhang felt a little uncomfortable. The Qing Dynasty is so fucked now!

Even though I knew I couldn't beat it, I had to beat it. The person who said I couldn't beat it would be caught. And the most powerful person could not come out, so isn't this too fucking?

However, no matter how dissatisfied, Li Hongzhang knew that he still had to go on the spot... Go back to Beijing!

But on the way back to Beijing, he had just arrived at Tianji, and he heard about a major event, and Prince Gong's military aircraft chief minister was gone!

Why is it so fast? I haven’t returned to the news here yet?

In fact, Li Hongzhang knew very well that this time he was on a mission to England was completely instructed by Prince Gong. Prince Gong really hoped to waive the war at the negotiating table. If the French conditions were met, Prince Gong would be satisfied. Then wouldn’t there be no need to fight?

Prince Gong was thinking about this one-time and all-out method, which was very good, but the French did not agree at all. But now, the news has not arrived in the capital yet!

Yes, Li Hongzhang's mouth was very tight. He told his mentor Zeng Guofan about this. Others didn't know about it at all. Another familiar person was the translator Zhang Deyi. But this kid is still in the UK now.

Then...it seems that the court situation has undergone a huge change!

Li Hongzhang was careful. He returned to the capital from Tianshi, and did not go directly to find Prince Gong. Instead, he went home and enjoyed the joy of family with his wife and children.

You know, I really enjoyed this family happiness for two days, and during these two days, Li Hongzhang also knew why Prince Gong stepped down and lost control of the Military Affairs Department!

This time the matter is very big!

The fundamental reason was that France fought against Vietnam. Although the negotiations in London, the French did not stop. It was just a little restrained. But not long after, the French became fierce again. Obviously, they didn't care about the outcome of the London talks at all.

However, the major turning point of Prince Gong's stepping down was that he appeared in the capital. Simply put, there was a huge change within the political group of Prince Gong.

Lao Qi rebelled!

The so-called Lao Qi is Prince Gong's younger brother, Aisin Gioro Yihuan. He ranks seventh. Yihuan was previously added to Prince Chun and was promoted to Prince Chun not long ago. Prince Chun has a great political status.

When the Seventh Seventh Army was defeated in the Xinyou year, the one who led the army was the seventh son. Now Yihuan felt that his brother was a little too incompetent and was so humble to the French. The French fought against Vietnam and the Qing Dynasty, so the Qing Dynasty did not speak?

So Prince Chun Yihuan wrote a letter to denounce his brother's fear of war. Although he spoke more elegantly, he was almost cursing his mother. There was no way, he couldn't scold this mother. He and Prince Gong were born to the same mother.

Don’t underestimate Yihuan’s memorial. This is a major political weight. Although Yihuan is not very responsible, he is called a soldier after all, and he is Prince Gong’s own person. So what should others do when he stands out?

Although Qingliu was supported by Cixi, Qingliu was all small officials after all. Are there few people they criticized? Cixi herself has political strength, but it is not enough to compare with Prince Gong now. After all, she has only been behind the curtain for a few years? Besides, Cixi is just an old lady, and it is not a good thing to be a hen.

But now that Prince Chun turned against him, his power was directly reversed!

Prince Gong was shot by his brother, and he was definitely depressed enough. What was even more depressed was that his brother squeezed him down after he wrote a letter, Yi Huan became the foreman of the military aircraft, and then he changed several people.

In the original Military Affairs Office, Bao Jing and Wen Xiang were all senior officials, and now they are also going home, this...

Prince Gong’s power is in a tendency to be captured in one go!

So, what should Li Hongzhang do after seeing all this?

"Li Hongzhang received the order!"

Li Hongzhang, who enjoyed the joy of family, just enjoyed it for two days, and then the father-in-law arrived at his house. What he came here was not an ordinary public. This was a big eunuch, An Dehai!

After that, the emperor who followed the Heavenly Continent was ordered by Emperor Chengyun, Li Hongzhang had heard enough, and what he listened most carefully was to "supervise the Vietnam War"!

Isn’t this the fuck just letting him Li Hongzhang go to the front line to fight?!

Li Hongzhang sat down on the ground. He never expected that this errand would fall on him. What should I do?

"I said Li Hongzhang, please accept the order!" An Dehai looked at Li Hongzhang's old face and he was naturally very bored. Such an errand was not done by An Dehai, but now... it can be seen that the Empress Dowager attaches great importance to Li Hongzhang.

"Oh, oh." Li Hongzhang had to accept the order. He really had no choice...

To be honest, Li Hongzhang also understood this matter. He was already the empress dowager, but how could he fight this battle?

Li Hongzhang really had no clue, and after An Dehai, Prince Gong's people came, but Li Hongzhang was confused and didn't know how to deal with it.

"No, I have to find someone to help me with the staff."

...

Just when the Qing Dynasty and France were preparing to have a life-and-death relationship, some people were also active, and they started to move frequently.

"Dear bosses, brothers and sisters, I, Yang Guangren, have been staying in Amerika for many years. I am planning to do something when I return to China! Today, the Qing Dynasty is injustice! Are we, the Han family, willing to watch the fall of China? Will we be bullied by those foreigners?"

"No! No!"

"Brother Yang! You came back from overseas. I'm afraid you've made a lot of money!"

"Bah! Why are you thinking about those messy things? We are now trying to drive out the Tartars and restore our China!"

This scene happened in Hong Kong, and the protagonist naturally left the American Empire and returned to the Qing Dynasty.

Didn’t Yang Guangren return to his motherland? Why did he come to Hong Kong?

Actually, this matter is quite complicated.

Yang Guangren wanted to rebel against the Qing Dynasty and restore the Ming Dynasty. Well, now it has changed a little, that is, to overthrow the Qing Dynasty and then restore the Han Dynasty. It is unknown. Then let it go.

But he needs strength!

Where does the power come from?

In recent years, Yang Guangren and Li Mengyang have learned a lot. And he also knows where his advantages lies. He is from the Hongmen!

The people in front of us were some of the big bosses from the Hongmen whom Yang Guangren found with his own strength after returning to China.

Now he, Yang Guangren, has promoted the banner of the mountain hall in Dalushan again, and now he considers himself the leader of the Fuxing Hall. As for Li Mengyang... After that guy became the emperor, he would not mention this matter at all!

Yes, Yang Guangren has a certain opinion on Li Mengyang, that is, everyone had set up an overseas hall of Hongmen before, and when you, Li Mengyang, were conquering California, the Hongmen organization played an important role.

Don’t look at how everyone called each other comrades at that time, but in fact, what we did was mainly the Hongmen organization. Otherwise, how could it be so easy to unite the Taiping Army?

To be fair, the Hongmen did play an important role at that time, but it would be a bit unreasonable to attribute all the credit to the Hongmen organization.

In fact, Li Mengyang knew from the beginning that he had started the Hongmen, but in the end he had no major development. So from the beginning, he was preparing for reorganization, reform, and a different Hongmen. He kept giving lectures to everyone and constantly instilling the concept of class struggle. These were all about downplaying the Hongmen.

But there was no way at that time. The Hongmen organizational system was very strict and effective, especially for the Chinese workers at that time, which was very deterrent. But later on, the organization was an obstacle because after all, this organizational structure was too outdated, and the color of the underworld was so you couldn't get it to the table!

So, Li Mengyang took a cold treatment and helped me, I didn’t treat you badly, but what about doing something? What about Hongmen? Or maybe just do the senior management of the entire American country joining Hongmen?

How is that possible!

Therefore, there are deep reasons for Yang Guangren and Li Mengyang to part ways. Indeed, Li Mengyang also admitted that if it was from the perspective of the Hongmen, then he did not do it properly... But he, as an emperor, must do this!

Then Zhu Yuanzhang was still against the Ming Cult, and Sun Yat-sen did not allow the Hongmen to make it public, right?

Yang Guangren had a knot in his heart, but now that he has returned to his motherland, he will leap on the sea and fish!

After a meeting with a group of big guys, he talked about a lot of anti-Qing things, especially Yang Guangren also told them about his experiences in the American Empire. Anyway, the Han people's country should be the ones that we Han people should be here. That's good. And he also sang a paragraph "Looking back"... Well, good things should be fully utilized, Yang Guangren is not stupid.

This meeting was good, but Yang Guangren also had another purpose. He actually wanted to find someone and a woman when he came to Hong Kong! (To be continued)
