C1146 Paranoia

"Give the little emperor another three years. This year is 1869, and I promise that three years later, in 1872, His Majesty will definitely hold the inauguration ceremony in the Forbidden City. At that time, His Majesty would still be very young even at the age of 17!"

"Also, three years of time is enough for him to travel around Europe and expand his army by twofold … Third Master, don't forget that the Xishan Camp was trained by the devil six years old, it does not belong to His Majesty! "

"And you, the innovators, are probably a thorn in the side of those people. The next three years are the most dangerous ones for all of you. Please be careful!"

"Do I have to believe you? Why should I believe you? "Ever since we first met five years ago, you've been lying to me, you've always been lying to me …" Fu Qing said in a lonely manner.

"Master San, what did I lie to you about?" In these five years, you became the leader of the reformers in the Qing Dynasty from a fallen playboy with eight flags. You re a proper second ranked official, it is not excessive to say that you have equal rights with General Xie Zi. "

"It's precisely because I, Xiao Letian, am here that many of the primary industrial products no longer need to be imported. You can also create a telegraph line that can cut through the north and south, could it be that I, Xiao Letian, am harming you all?"

Speaking till here, Xiao Letian even threw out the hurtful words that he always wanted to say but did not dare to say "How sad!" How sad! Are you really afraid of me, Xiao Letian? Actually that's not it. From the very beginning, you guys have only been afraid of yourselves. Ever since your Manchu entered the Central Plains, you people have always been living in a rebellious mood due to your lack of self-confidence … "

"Take precautions against the Chinese, shave your hair and change your clothes, set up a language prison …" "In the end, you're just afraid that your abilities and morals aren't enough. You don't believe that you can manage such a big world, so you're using pressure to rule the world like crazy …"

"Ever since the day you entered, you all thought that this mountain and river was purely for picking up loot. You all felt that it was impossible for your Manchu to occupy such a large Central Plains with just the strength of its population, and also impossible for it to rule for a long time … Strong self-confidence makes you feel inferior, and this self-abasement makes you feel even crazier! "

"The human heart is like this. The thing that scolds the loudest is the weakness in your heart. You people must be on guard against rebellion, but the more pressure you face, the more Han people will rebel. What does this mean?" This means that from the beginning to the end, you all have been immersed in a kind of mental illness caused by your delusions of being murdered … "

"This is a mental state that has been hidden in the bottom of your Manchu for more than two hundred years. You think that everyone in the world will harm you, and anyone who doesn't want to be your servant will become a rebel, so you have to kill and suppress … "For the sake of this nightmare, you even abolished the study of gunpowder weapons in China, because you were naive enough to think that if the Chinese acquired a spear, they would overturn the rivers and mountains that your Manchu's cavalry had brought down …"

You, Fu Qing, are considered an enlightened person in the Manchu, but in your eyes, I can still see the signs of this disease. You naturally think that if I, Xiao Letian, do not enter the imperial court of the Forbidden City, I am a rebel! "

"In your eyes, the Chinese Order is the flag of rebellion. This is a declaration to overturn the Great Qing!" I don't understand why your hearts are so self-conscious and narrow-minded. Wake up, this is the Ryukyu, all the Chinese are not your citizens, and all the Chinese in this world are not your servants! "

In the end, Xiao Letian fiercely said, "If your Manchu wants to pass through this historical obstacle, you cannot rely on the old road anymore, and rely on suppression instead? And then divide the Chinese people to borrow their strength? Do you still want to use these tricks forever? "

"Wake up, if none of you have the consciousness to blend into this world and try to hide in your past thoughts like cowards, then I can only regretfully tell you all, your final result is probably unimaginably miserable!"

"Don't question me anymore, you all have no other choice now. If you, Fu Qing, are really His Majesty's loyal subjects, then you all should support me even more!"

"Alright, now that the choice is in your hands, are you going to let Zai Chun go back with you and immerse himself in that stinky water? Or do you follow me, trying to accept new things, trying to find a way to make a future? "Pick one yourself …"

He had said what he needed to say, and did what he needed to do, regardless of whether Fu Qing was willing or not, he had to admit that he was unable to convince Xiao Letian. When his lonely figure left the garden, Xiao Letian's entire body had lost all of its strength, and he collapsed onto the rattan chair.

Dragon Lord entered the pavilion and asked, "Did San Ye nod?"

"No, but it's about time. He should have gone to discuss it with Zai Chun. I believe they will make the right judgement, because Zai Chun has no other choice …"

"Dragon Lord, I would rather go to the battlefield with the French bayonet than to have a heart fight with my brothers. I am too tired, too tired …" I know, this should be the last time I'll dupe the Qing Dynasty, so I can only give us one last chance to stall for time … "

Dragon Lord knew Xiao Letian's strategic plan and all the efforts the Prime Minister had made in the past few days was to do everything he could to calm the fear and hostility the Qing Dynasty had towards the Hua Clan Order.

This was the first time that the Chinese had crossed swords with a European powerhouse. If they were to win, they would look up to them and they could even do business with them on equal footing. If they lost, the concept of the Chinese would immediately become a laughingstock.

"Okay, I will leave the Ryukyu tomorrow and head to the Far East as soon as possible. The moment the battle at sea breaks out, it will be the start of the counterattack by the voluntary army of the Far East …"

Xiao Letian painfully closed his eyes and rubbed his temples. "If I lose this battle, then the heart of the people that I have built up over the past five years will collapse in an instant.

"But what about this victory? It won't be beneficial for us either. If we can defeat the Russian Expeditionary Force, then from today onwards, we can officially be considered to have stepped into the ranks of the strongest … In the future, not only will the Qing Dynasty not listen to us, the Europeans will also raise their level of caution against us … "

"The road ahead is not easy! There was no longer any possibility of using trickery. The Chinese would officially enter the stage of competing for power, fighting for the cruel advancement of one's life … To be honest, I feel like I've been a sinner for ages! "

"To bring millions or even tens of millions of Chinese people onto that cruel road of hegemony, just how many people will die!?"

The Dragon Lord laughed coldly and shook his head, "The Prime Minister is really worried about me eating the radish lightly, who isn't greedy in the human heart? He also wanted to live a happy life, but he didn't want to put his life on the line. This idea was the parasite's ideal … "We, the Chinese race, do not raise parasites. Since they are unwilling to embark on this bloody path, we might as well leave the Chinese race …"

"Anyway, it's not like they forced the Chinese identity to come. In the end, they still have to apply for it themselves!"
