He had already expected everyone's reaction, so his face was extremely calm.
Since he had already reached the peak of power, he should do what he should do. If he couldn't even solve a little problem, how could he be worthy of being a true emperor?
This suffering nation had to face many storms, and they were experiencing an unprecedented low. If they wanted them to soar again, they had to have great wisdom.
If he couldn't even cut off his own braids, how could he lead this country to stand at the top of the nation again?
" Now, the Qing Dynasty is facing internal and external troubles. Long Hair is in chaos, and the foreign powers are spying on us. My million strong army can't even stop a few thousand foreigners. This has never happened in the past five thousand years. I deeply feel the importance of making the country rich and strong. When the country is in danger, there will be a righteous man who will stand up for me. I want to be the first righteous man. However, one righteous man is far from enough. I need thousands of righteous men to form a new army to protect my country and my people so that the foreign powers won't dare to invade the border easily.”
"Today, I will add a new one on the Hair Growing Ridge. The new army will not need to grow hair.”Li Ye stood in front of the Hall of Prayer for Good Harvest and announced solemnly.
The Manchu people could only have the opportunity to compete fairly with other ethnic groups. They could no longer have special privileges. He would also slowly deal with those dignitaries.
The privilege of the Banner people was the root of corruption. The greed of the noble and powerful officials was the capital of subversion. As long as they had no intention of the country, how could they enjoy these things?
Hearing Li Ye's words, although many people were still dissatisfied, the discussions below became much quieter.
Many people thought that the Emperor was young and impetuous, and was forced by the current situation.
The eyes of some of the Han officials flashed. They seemed to have smelled something.
If he wanted to train a new army, then let him do it. It was nothing anyway. Every emperor in Daoguang, Xianfeng, and even Tongzhi had done this before.
However, this person was a little more radical!
Fortunately, there were only three types of children who did not need to wear braids. After the Taoist priests and the dead, a new army was added. Although it was still inappropriate, it was still acceptable.
Ci An's expression became much better. No matter what, the other party was doing this for the sake of the country's prosperity. As long as it did not exceed this scope, he did not want to interfere. After a period of time, he did not have the ability to interfere. This country indeed needed some changes.
Li Ye looked at everyone's reaction and couldn't help but sneer in his heart. He would bite them back and eat them. It was just a frog being boiled in warm water. When the day came that they were even more stupid and couldn't stop it, they would wake up.
"However, at that time, my strength was already so strong that you guys couldn't resist.
Now, they had to take things one step at a time. They had to adjust the system of government, the name of the country, and the culture. However, the most important thing now was to obtain power, develop the industry, and establish a new army.
" Ding…Defeated political opponent, gained favorable impression from some ministers, gained 5,000 points…"
Under the afterglow of the setting sun, a crisp system voice flashed across Li Ye's mind.
At the Gong Prince's residence.
The lights were bright, and Yi Xin was already sitting in his original seat. However, he had not been dealing with government affairs recently. Instead, he had pushed all these things to the other military and political ministers.
He lived in seclusion and would leave after reporting to the Military and Political Affairs Office. He turned a blind eye to those officials who wanted to hear news. Even Li Hongzhang was blocked outside the door.
"General, His Highness is dead!" The Grand Secretary of the Hall of Martial Valor laughed. He had won four rounds in a row today.
"I won't play anymore, I won't play anymore. It's better to play with my flowers and plants.”Yi Xin shook his head. He tossed the chess piece aside and stood up.
"Sixth Master, you've been a little absent-minded these two days. The one in the west has been crippled by the one in the east. He doesn't listen to the government himself. The little Emperor is pestering us. He even cut his braids today. If it weren't for the fact that today is the ceremony of taking over the government, we definitely wouldn't have pinched our noses and admitted it.“
Bao Yun could tell that the Gong Prince was distracted and quickly asked.
" But the Empress Dowager can rest assured that the little Emperor is causing such a ruckus. Sixth Master, the late Emperor had high hopes for you back then. If it weren't for Fourth Master…" Baoyun could not help but be stunned.
The former emperor he was talking about was naturally Daoguang. Back then, Xin Xin's literary talent and martial arts were above Yi Xin's, and Emperor Daoguang loved this son the most. According to the tradition of the Qing Dynasty, the throne would be passed to the talented and virtuous prince.
However, Emperor Xianfeng's teacher, Du Shoutian, knew very well that Yi's wisdom and talent were "invincible". He could not win by stating current politics and riding a horse and practicing martial arts. He had to win by filial piety.
In his later years, Daoguang was bedridden and felt that he would not be able to live for long. He fell to the ground and shed tears. He was in extreme pain. This was how he won the favor of Emperor Daoguang and changed to Xianfeng.
" It's been decades. Don't mention it again." Yi Xin's expression changed. He sighed and said," He's trying to win the hearts of the Han people. Who will benefit the most after this?" This king?“
After the fall of Sauss Cixi, most of the people in Baoyun fell under Prince Chun.
"Seventh Master, Seventh Master is powerful now!" He was enlightened.
"Old Master doesn't have that ability. Otherwise, why would he be so unbearable back then? You don't know, but all of this was done by that Emperor. Our emperor is very shrewd!"
Yi Xin shook his head and laughed coldly.
"It can't be. Your Highness, what do you mean?”Bao Yun's mouth was wide open in disbelief.
"Alright! They are all the masters of my Aisin Gioro, and also people who want to revitalize the country and want to be familiar with foreign affairs. The one in the east who has no son treats him like his own son. Old Seven is already full, so we can't be enemies with these people. I'll just raise flowers. You guys also take care not to be caught by others. I don't want to ask too much about political affairs.”
Yi Xin had long given up on that position. If he wanted to fight for it, he had a chance when Grandpa Dao Guang was still alive, and the best opportunity was when Su Shun was still alive. He did not even move, let alone now when half of his body was already buried in the ground…
