”Cough, cough, cough …” This old official does not have much time left, nor do I care how you think of me. If you want to hear the truth, then tell me something that you do not like to hear! ”
Zai Chun's eyes revealed an expression of gratitude, ”Ceng Shuang, just say it! I want to hear something unpleasant today! ”
”Good!” This subject will make it clear! If the Great Qing Dynasty wanted to live, and if she didn't want to die, then she had to live with the times! All those who oppose the industrial power of the court... ”
”Hehe …” I'm afraid the people in my heart are hoping for the Great Qing Dynasty to die early! ”
”How dare you!” Yi Yu shouted loudly: ”Ceng Guofan, you swept the entire Eight Flag Palace inside? Could it be that these nobles and officials also wish for the imperial government to fall? ”
”Empress Dowager! Please punish Ceng Guofan for his crime of being disrespectful! ”
”Hahaha …” Ceng Shuai laughed loudly, ”Why must you atone to this old official?” What's called great disrespect, wouldn't it be fine if you just directly said that you were rebellious! ”
This subject, Ceng Guofan, did not follow your thoughts and did not sing a hymn to the Great Qing for tens of thousands of years.
”Come, Prince Kung! This old official's head is here, if you want it, you can have it! ”
”You …” Yi Yeyu couldn't refute a single word that was stuffed into his mouth.
Ceng Guofan cupped his hands towards the empress dowager behind the curtain and asked, ”What is the doomsday scene? If no one dares to speak the truth in a imperial court, it would be the end of the dynasty! ”
”Do you pretend not to understand? How did you lose the millions of lands outside the Black Dragon River and Wusuli River? ”
”Yaqub messed up the entire Xinjiang, the soldiers went all the way to the Hami and captured the entire territory of the Yili. Only some of the Mongolian herdsmen in Northern Frontier Tower city are still loyal to me, Da Qing!”
”Look at the coastal areas, whether it is Chinese or foreign devils, all of them are desperately trying to build battleships to seek control of the sea!”
”You don't see these changes? Playing dumb? What dream of ten thousand years of the Kingdom of Heaven? Wake up! ”
”Thirty years, in just thirty years, what has the strength of the foreigners changed? We already have troops that can fly in the sky, but we don't even have a Steel plant or a railway.
”Humph!” ”Don't think that just by taking the silver, you can buy a strong army. You must know that the Chinese have weapons from foreign devils. Even the imperial government can do it today, and sell it to Long-hair tomorrow!”
”If you don't go with the flow, you'll be stuck on the ammunition supply!” The life vein of a country is controlled by others, what else do you have to discuss? ”
”This official is old! This subject does not want to change his official uniform before his death, and he does not want to lose his hair... Just make do and be a loyal subject of the Great Qing! ”
”But if I can make do with my life, there might not be people who can make do with it in the future!” Have you guys thought about what will happen in the next thirty years? ”
”By the time we reach the year 1901 of the Western Calendar, you guys should start to think carefully about what would happen to the industry of the Western Demons.”
Threatening was indeed a naked threat. The marshal had said it very clearly, even if I'm old I can't rebel and I don't want to be a prisoner!
But just because I, Ceng Guofan, do not rebel, does not mean that the Han people of the world will not rebel! Even if I am able to suppress these hundreds of thousands of Xiang Army alive, death will not necessarily cause anything big!
Thirty years old! At the rate that the current era was evolving, what would happen in thirty years? He didn't even dare to think about it!
