Chapter 88

[Item [-]: Experts in civil wars, amateurs in foreign wars]

[Cixi once left a famous sentence that is still inspiring today: "Measure the material strength of China, and form the love of the country; it is better to give it to friends than to slaves!"

In the face of powerful enemies in the West, it doesn't matter if you cede land and pay compensation, and you don't feel bad if you sell your father's land. As long as you can keep the Qing Dynasty and your own supreme power, Cixi will not be afraid of being criticized by thousands of people and will be infamous for thousands of years! 】

Xuanye, Hongli: "."

Liu Che: "There is no such thing as national integrity in her at all. Also, she is not a Han Chinese at all, and she does not have the backbone of our Han people who would rather bend than bend, and the spirit of perseverance."

Li Shimin: "I have pity on China's great rivers and mountains, which have been ruined by incompetent rulers, and the people have been displaced."

Zhu Yuanzhang, Zhu Di, and Zhu Youjian: "My Ming Dynasty was replaced by such a dynasty, it is really sad and hateful!"

Zhao Gou: "Hey! Hey! This old woman is much worse than me! Fuck her! Fuck her!!!"

[When the report of the disastrous defeat in the Sino-Japanese War came back, Cixi and Guangxu also hugged each other and cried.

Emperor Guangxu made up his mind to reform, and Cixi also supported it at that time.

She once said to Guangxu: "The reform is the original ambition. At the beginning of Tongzhi, Zeng Guofan's proposal was accepted, and his children were sent abroad to study and build ships and equipment in order to become rich and strong."

He also said: "If you can become rich and strong, you can do it yourself, and I don't control it internally."

However, even though it was said to be "returning to the government", Cixi still controlled all the administration of personnel in the court behind her back. Emperor Guangxu had to report to her on all matters big and small. In fact, he was still just a puppet.

Later, when Cixi was again influenced by the die-hard conservatives, she became dissatisfied with the reform measures and limits. In addition, she heard that the reformists wanted to use mutiny to directly threaten her power and life. Gentleman, a vigorous Hundred Days Reform has come to an end. 】

Emperor Kangxi Xuanye said with some grief: "It's a pity that this Emperor Guangxu, if there is no Cixi to intervene in politics, he might really be able to create a new world."

Emperor Qianlong Hongli gritted his teeth and cursed: "Damn Yehenala."

The harm of foreign relatives interfering in politics was once again nakedly placed in front of everyone. This not only deepened the emperor's awareness of the dangers of foreign relatives interfering in politics, but also made all people from the parallel world who can watch the live video realize that " If you fall behind, you will be beaten".

[Cixi killed the reform and imprisoned the emperor. Such measures gave the Western powers an excuse to interfere.

They asked Cixi to return power to Guangxu, but Cixi could not cope, so she had to spread the news that Guangxu was seriously ill.

Unexpectedly, foreigners not only came forward to see a doctor for Guangxu, but also sheltered Kang Youwei and other reformers, which made Cixi extremely angry. 】

[At this time, the Boxer Movement with the slogan of "helping the Qing Dynasty and destroying the foreigners" began to break out in China, and their behavior was quite in the Cixi's appetite.

After watching the absurd performance of the Boxers' "invulnerability", Cixi, who thought that there was a heavenly soldier to help, began to declare war on the big powers rashly.

The government army and the Boxers began to attack diplomatic embassies and concession areas, killing foreigners and Christians whenever they saw them.

Never thought that when they actually faced the army of the "Eight-Nation Allied Forces", they would collapse at the touch of a touch, and they were defeated in the end.

The Eight-Power Allied Forces broke through the capital, and Cixi had no choice but to abandon Beijing and flee to the west, and the Celestial Dynasty fell into the "Gengzi Rebellion". 】

[It was at this time that Cixi became aware of the gap in strength between the two sides, but she finally blamed the Boxers and ordered an intensified encirclement and eradication. 】

[After knowing that the coalition forces burned, killed, looted and committed all kinds of crimes, Cixi seemed to wake up, and even said: "I'm sorry for the people."

After countless painful lessons, Cixi knew that China's long-standing abuses had reached the point where reforms had to be carried out, so she took the initiative to issue a new policy decree.

However, on key issues, she still maintains that she must not touch the ancestral family law, and cannot make excessive changes to the existing system. She must maintain the stability of the imperial power and the bottom line of the vested interests of the royal family. 】

[The tragedy of the Chinese era is that when Chinese and foreign cultures began to rub off on sparks, there were already various voices for reform in China, such as the Westernization School, the Reformation School, and the Constitutional School, as well as some scholars with a global vision.
It can be said that the pattern of the new world has already begun to beckon to the Chinese nation.

However, it was Cixi who dominated all of this.

Although she has shrewd and powerful political skills, she is also just a dictator who has insufficient knowledge of new things and is slow to respond to the world situation.

She actually represents the truth in such a huge empire, and she decides the fate of the nation. Sad! 】

【The Great Qing Empire is wobbling and swaying from side to side on the road to perish like this, running parallel with a series of disasters from time to time until it perishes completely! 】

[To sum up, Empress Dowager Cixi left an extremely humiliating history for China, ranking No. 1 in the list of top ten fatuous emperors in history, and she deserves her name! 】

After the video was played, in Cixi's world, the entire capital fell silent.

During this period, there were already many foreigners in the capital.

When they were shocked by the unpredictable "magic" of China, they also saw the great temptation of the Qing Dynasty being pried open by the great powers.

"Hahaha, is this huge Eastern Empire finally destroyed by us?"

"In such a big country, it would be wonderful if we could occupy a piece of land!"

"Hurry up, send the news back! We must be the first to break into BJ City!!!"

"Da Qing, just died like this?"

"Good death! This corrupt court should have been replaced long ago!"

"Notify comrades, prepare for an uprising!"

After watching the inventory video of the last two of the top ten fatuous emperors, the emperors were all silent.

Zhao Gou was only bullied by the Jin people, while Cixi was bullied by the entire Western world together with the Japanese country.

It must be clear at a glance whose situation is more miserable.

"In the final analysis, it is because the technology and military strength of the Qing Dynasty have completely lagged behind other countries."

"For thousands of years, China has regarded foreigners as barbarians. I didn't expect that we would be treated as barbarians one day."

"If you fall behind, you will be beaten. Shangshen Su's words summed it up very well."

After the video finished playing, networking time began.

When the emperors appeared in a public space, there were no violent incidents such as "Zhao Kuangyin beat Zhao Gou violently" or "Liu Bang and Liu Che double beat Liu Ao".

In the final analysis, it is still—there is nothing greater than heartbreak!
Hu Hai is hopeless, no, it should be said that there is no hope of being saved at all.

Because from the moment he came to power, he only thought about how to eat, drink and have fun, without any consideration for the country or the people.

As for Cixi, although she had some ideas and wanted to make the Qing Dynasty stronger, she still chose herself in terms of her own rights and personal enjoyment.

Technology is almost an era behind the West.
For the feudal emperors who were also in the feudal era, and even less knowledgeable than Cixi in some aspects, I am afraid that they have more than enough heart but not enough power.
