The Prime Minister's affairs offices in various countries, in charge of diplomacy, dispatched envoys, and was in charge of business, coastal defense, customs duties, roads, mines, posts and telecommunications, military industry, Tongwenguan and other matters. If such a big thing happened, he was naturally very busy. However, Li Hongzao, who was not useful, was also a man of paralysis by the popularity of Japan at this time, and Zaiying was very busy for a while.

At this celestial meeting, due to a sudden accident, Yi Xin and I did not implement the formulated plan, but both frowned and listened to the complaints of Prime Minister Zai Ying.

Although the censor Wu Dayan, who had always been fond of trouble, had been promoted to the left deputy chief censor by Weng Tonghe some time ago, and was released as the governor of Guangdong, there were still several censors who impeached Zai Ying for losing his national body and causing trouble with the Japanese. Some of them impeached the Dragon Banner Army Shiduo Nie Shicheng Ronglu who used a rash killing in the capital, and they had to lose the style of a great country. They were all refuted by me in the court and praised Zai Ying for being properly handled. Because Yi Xin had only such a prince, he had to reward Zai Ying's sons, all of which were first-class Yunqiwei. (Yunqiwei is the lowest-level similar thing with an annual salary of 80 taels.)

A few censors were still talking. I patted the case and said tiredly: "Li Hongzao is still lying at home and keeping him. If it weren't for Zaiying, I wouldn't know what to bully the Japanese! According to you, what should I do to declare the demeanor of a great country and avoid trouble in the capital! Do you have no sense of shame when the Japanese dare to go to the yamen? Bastard! You have been ruined by your brain! Master Weng, you are the chief minister, tell me what to do!"

Weng Tonghe stepped out, cleared his throat, and looked up and said, "What the emperor admonished is that the Prime Minister is not wrong, but later the Dragon Banner Army entered the city and started killing again. I think it's a bit past."

"Okay, don't say these nonsense. I'm not asking you to tell you what to do, but to tell you how to do this according to your words." As soon as I heard his great principles, I immediately became impatient and sat down and said coldly: "Master Weng, you are the chief military officer and an old minister who has served for three dynasties. You should think of an idea for me."

I don’t know if Weng Tonghe is pretending to be stupid or really stupid, but he didn’t hear the mockery in my tone. He coughed lightly: “The emperor clearly understands that according to my opinion, the Japanese are arrogant and troubled in front of the General Administration’s office. They should be punished severely. However, later, the Dragon Banner Army started another killing. According to my fool’s opinion, it is a bit too much. One or two ministers of Deshao should be sent to blame him for his righteousness. The Japanese are in the wrong and must retreat. In this way, we will not lose our righteousness and the other party will be punished again, so we will end up harmoniously.”

What a kind ending. Yesterday I told you about this, you didn’t say a word. Today, you asked me to look good in the court?

I remained silent and nodded, "Well, it's such a kind ending. Master Weng is right. I am trying to send one or two ministers with the power of Deshao to Japan to Xuanhua Japanese. I see that Master Weng is just you. Those censors just now will accompany Master Weng. You should also blame him for his righteousness and educate him with the way of a saint... I have another kindness to leave the court for the burden of the Military Affairs Office!"

"Long live my emperor, long live my life!" The voices of the ministers shouting at the mountain echoed behind me. I wonder if this Lord Weng, who was standing in the middle of the court, shouted with conscience.

Back in the study, I immediately wrote several decrees:

Li Hongzhang was ordered to be dismissed from serving as the governor of Zhili and the minister of Beiyang, and to be appointed as the head of the military aircraft office. He was awarded a double-eyed peach feather and selected his son to be a third-class cavalry commander. (The annual salary of the cavalry commander is 105 taels.)

Weng Tonghe was dismissed from the position of leading the military aircraft and was still walking in the Military Service Office. He escorted Oto Keisuke and Komatsu Sutaro deported Tokyo and admonished the Japanese government. He could choose several censors to bring them.

He was transferred to the Governor of Yunnan and Guizhou, Wang Wenshao as the Governor of Zhili, Feng Zicai as the Governor of Yunnan, and Liu Yongfu, the General of Nan'ao, Guangdong, was promoted to the Governor of Yunnan. Wang Yixin, the Office of the Government, was appointed as the Minister of the Prime Minister's Affairs Office of various countries.

It took a lot of effort to arrange personnel. Now a large framework for border defense has basically been completed. Feng Zicai and Liu Yongfu are guarding against the French in the south, Ding Ruchang prepares the Russians in the north, and there is a new-looking royal navy in the east, so there is no need to worry for the time being. Wang Wenshao is also a loyal and martyrdom minister. He has experience when fighting the French. Now he takes advantage of his courage and brings the military spirit and civilian customs of Zhili to the area, and brings more courage.

After finishing these things, I thought about visiting Li Hongzao. I was about to ask someone to go to Zaiying to join me, but I thought I should go to the General Administration Office again. Wu Tingfang is really a talented person. After all, he has been in North Korea and is not panicked when encountering problems. It is worth cultivating.

So he called Zai Bing, changed into a slight dress, and went to the General Administration Office.

The Shuntian Prefecture Office was doing business quickly enough. In just one day, Dongtangzi Hutong was cleaned up. It was impossible to tell that a killing happened here just a day ago.

However, the guard was significantly strengthened at the entrance of the alley. The infantry commander's yamen transferred a battalion of troops to garrison. It was probably Zaiying's request. I parked the car outside, pulled Zaiyan out of the car and walked inside. A soldier hurried to report.

When I was about to reach the door, I met several carriages coming out from inside, and tall horses were dragging the carriage and galloping past.

"Virtue!" Zai Ting cursed and helped me brush the floating ash on my clothes and said, "It seems that I haven't killed enough yesterday. Look at these pretty good virtues!"

I smiled and said, "Forget it, it's normal for diplomats to be awesome. I thanked Zaiying for being so rude yesterday, otherwise I wouldn't be able to suppress those Japanese."

"Yes." Zai Bing said as she walked with me, "Zai Ying is really tough. Yesterday, I was worried about him. Prince Gong is just a treasure son like him. OK, good, I really can't see it. Emperor, when will I let the servant deal with these Japanese devils? I will definitely not embarrass you, the emperor."

Zai Wen looked envious, and I couldn't bear to refute his happiness, so I said perfunctorily: "Don't worry, I haven't had time to let you out yet. When you grow up, I will promote you to be a prince and slowly let you out to do business. Zai Wen, life is long. By the way, you should also find a girl's house? Do you like it? I will give you a marriage back."

As I was talking about gossip, Zaiying led a group of officials out to welcome me. I waved my hand and signaled that I would not give up on the gifts, saying, "Zaiying, I will come and take a look. Let's go to Li Hongzao later. It's all too soon. I'll give up on these false gifts. I'll go to the Dragon Flag Army to have a look in the afternoon."

Zaiying responded, I walked in and asked, "Who was that person who was he who went out just now?"

"Reply to the emperor's words, I was about to report that there was no one else, but I was a Kasini yesterday. By chance, I came to submit the letter of protest." Zai Ying bowed and replied.

I nodded and said, "Read it to me, Zaiying, why did you change the rules today? It wasn't like that yesterday? Hoho, I'm still a little unaccustomed to it."

"Reply to the emperor, I dare not be arrogant in front of the emperor. I have no good face to those beasts who don't know what they are. Your Majesty, you don't know how good Lord Li is, and he was bullied so much. I really can't stand this tone. If it weren't for Gu Nian's office, I wouldn't have buried these bastards!"

"You sit down too." I nodded and smiled, "Well, that's right. Didn't I reward you too? Your attitude towards diplomacy is good, but I see that you are a little straightforward. Looking back, you learn more from the old Westernization business. There are so many ways of hell. By the way, you have done Westernization business for so many years, so learn more."

Zai Ting looked very envious, touched her nose and wanted to speak but didn't speak. I smiled and said, "Look, Zai Ting is so impressed by you. But now I have something to hand over to you. Please help Zai Ting to pay attention to which girl is suitable. He misses his wife...haha."

After making such a joke, both brothers laughed. When I saw someone bringing the protest letter, I lowered my face and said, "Read it."

The official read the Russian protest letter, and then I understood what happened. It turned out that there were many disputes between the fishermen in Liaodong and the Russians. The two sides fought and suffered casualties. The Russians asked local Chinese officials to arrest the murderer and submit it. It was naturally rejected by the Chinese side. After that, the situation gradually expanded. Both sides began to send armed forces to protect the fishing fish in plain clothes, and each suffered casualties. I recalled the Ahn's memorial that I had read. No wonder this guy asked for the order. Well, Weng Tonghe's reply was correct, and it would be fine if he did that.

Kasini asked China to immediately remove Iketang Ah from his post and investigate and punish the murderer severely. After being rejected, he submitted a letter of protest. There are a few familiar sentences at the end: Russia reserves the right to use any means to safeguard the rights and interests of Russia, and all the consequences arising from this shall be borne by the Qing Dynasty.

This is TNND nonsense. If you use birds, you can do it. If you have the courage, don’t say this nonsense. If you don’t have the courage, don’t say this nonsense. If you use birds, I snorted contemptuously: “Stop it, what’s the matter! I will take back all the places like 64 towns in Jiangdong and Vladivostok sooner or later! Zaiying, see this bird man again next time, don’t show it to a good face! I think I used to say that someone had committed a crime or something, and my family sent him to Ningguta and the armored man as a slave. Now that Ningguta has been occupied by the Russians, they are actually getting more and more demanding!"

I thought to myself, Humph, Russian, please pretend to be a big-tailed wolf for me. The Far East Railway has just started to be repaired, and with the few people in Far East, you really don’t have the qualifications to tell me such awesome words!
