Chapter 155 Third brother, have you already graduated from the fifth level?
When Li Qiwei said that Emperor Guangxu had appointed him an official, both Li's father and Li Zhongxing's eyes almost popped out.
Li Zhongxing had a bad temper and asked quickly: "Third brother, do you mean Emperor Guangxu of the Qing Dynasty by Guangxu?"
"Are you sure you are not joking?"
< br>Father Li also wanted to ask this question, when did his son go to Datian to listen.
Li Qiwei said with a smile: "It was Emperor Guangxu of the Qing Dynasty."
"When I was still in the UK, he asked Zhang Deyi, the Qing Dynasty's ambassador to the UK, to bring me a secret message."
"The content roughly means: , if I agree, he will give me the position of deputy minister of education.”
“Specialized in the field of education in the New Deal, responsible for school construction, education system construction, etc.”
"I asked, and it seems that the deputy minister of management and education is a fifth-rank official, on the same level as Yuanwailang, a sixth-rank official."
quiet!
When Li Qiwei explained the whole story, Li's father and Li Zhongxing were stunned and stunned.
He became an official as soon as he returned to the country, and he directly graduated from the fifth rank.
Especially Li Zhongxing, the word "from the fifth grade" kept echoing in his mind.
“From the fifth level?”
"Isn't that four levels higher than me?"
"God, is it so easy to be an official?"
Li Zhongxing came back to his senses, grabbed Li Qiwei's hand, He said excitedly: "Third brother, this is pie in the sky."
"That is from the fifth rank, and it is also a central official position, responsible for the affairs of the country."
>"Many people spend their entire lives struggling in official circles, but at the end of their lives they never reach the height where you started."
"No, it should be said that I can't even see your back."
"God, Third Brother, you are so awesome."
"I still can't believe it, Third Brother, you From fifth grade?”
At the end, Li Zhongxing was beyond words.
The key is that Li Qiwei is only 23 years old, and the future is simply unimaginable.
However, after all, Li's father was an old man and a wealthy man. He reminded worriedly: "Weier, is there any conspiracy in this?"
"Even if you are a British knight, you are still speaking from the West. Although you are a scientist, it is impossible for you to reach a high position right away. "
"Furthermore, you did not pass the imperial examination, so you will probably be ostracized by others in the future."
"I will. I’m always a little worried.”
Dad Li Qiwei is really cool-headed, not blinded by temptation, and can still analyze the situation rigorously.
So, he expressed his guess.
According to Li Qiwei's understanding, there are probably many forces competing for his position.
The first is Guangxu. He is now a puppet emperor and a bare commander.
There is no one he can trust and use, so Li Qiwei is his life-saving straw.
Even though Li Qiwei’s various honors and status are not worth mentioning in his eyes, he is still a very good chess piece.
Li Qiwei, who has been influenced by Western learning, will definitely stir up trouble in the court.
But no one can do anything to him, so we can’t just kill the British Sir.
The joke was too big. The Qing Dynasty could no longer afford to lose money.
Only when the situation is chaotic can Guangxu have a chance to fish in troubled waters.
He has nothing now, and the situation cannot get worse.
Therefore, what he needs is change, big change.
As an emperor, Guangxu was naturally well-versed in history books and knew that there were many emperors in history who had more difficulties than him in governing personally.
What I need to do now is to be patient, patient, and patient again.
Any weapon is extremely fragile in the face of time.
The second force is Britain.
The current British Minister to the Qing Dynasty is Sir John Sudworth, an elite and experienced diplomatic politician.
He once signed the "Xinchou Treaty" with the Qing Dynasty on behalf of Britain.
Now he is exactly 60 years old. He graduated from University College London in the UK, majoring in political economics.
It was he who suggested to Emperor Guangxu that Li Qiwei be responsible for reforming education in the Qing Dynasty.
It is also said that Li Qiwei is knowledgeable and familiar with the Western higher education system, which will definitely make the Qing Dynasty strong and powerful through reforms.
Although Guangxu knew that the other party was telling lies, he originally wanted to use Li Qiwei, so he pretended to adopt it.
Li Qiwei speculated that British Prime Minister Balfour was behind Sa Daoyi.
Cecil resigned last year and supported his nephew Balfour to become the new British Prime Minister.
Both uncle and nephew hoped to dismember the Qing Dynasty so that they could cause chaos and profit from it.
The Qing Dynasty was too big, and its cultural cohesion and sense of identity were too strong. The British simply could not rule the Qing Dynasty the way they ruled India, so they had to find another way.
Lying like a leech on this big empire sucking blood, although it is not enough to feast on it, it is better than lasting.
Sa Daoyi knew that if young people like Li Qiwei could not make a career, it would be better to kill them.
So the other party will definitely have a fierce conflict with the conservatives during the reform.
At that time, Britain will have the opportunity to intervene.
After all, Ridgway still holds the title of British knight.
The third force is Cixi.
Although the old witch does not like Li Qiwei, it does not mean that she is stupid. She also knows that education is good.
Otherwise she would not agree to train the new army.
Only when the domestic foundation is laid well can the Qing Dynasty prosper and return to the heyday of Kangxi and Qianlong.
Moreover, Cixi was confident and had Li Qiwei completely in her hands.
Monkey Sun can never escape from Tathagata's grasp.
She was really driven into a panic. The old witch went crazy and killed Li Qiwei. She probably could have done it.
The worst that will happen is that we will have another fight with Britain.
What, the ministers said they couldn’t beat it?
That is your business, not mine. I will listen to your news in the garden.
No matter how awesome Cixi was, she was still just an ignorant woman.
She has no idea what the current world situation has become, nor does she know what technology has changed.
In other words, even if she knows, there is nothing she can do, which makes this feeling even more painful.
It is better to be an ostrich and bury your head in the sand.
As for the last force, they are the Han elites in China at this time.
Liu Kunyi, Zhang Zhidong, and Yuan Shikai, these powerful Han people, actually all have secrets in their hearts.
They may not be able to predict the future, but they still have no problem seeing through the fate of the Qing Dynasty.
But each generation has its own responsibilities.
The time has not come yet, and they can't do anything but leave the opportunity to future generations.
However, we can lay a solid domestic foundation now to engage in education and industry.
No matter how it develops in the end, the meat will always rot in the pot.
I have never heard of domestic hegemony, where there is a force that specializes in killing scholars and destroying roads and bridges.
In the minds of Chinese people, such people cannot achieve great things. They can only separat one side and act as a local overlord. It is impossible for anyone to take refuge.
China always emphasizes the word "righteousness".
Upright!
When Li Qiwei finished analyzing the four forces, Li's father and Li Zhongxing felt like they had seen a ghost.
Li Tingzhao thought to himself, is this really my third son?
"Weier, do you still teach these political things in the UK?"
"This analysis is too insightful and clear."
"I feel that my judgment on the domestic situation is not as good as yours."
Li Zhongxing: "I feel like I have become a fake official."
"I have been around for three or four years. I never thought there were so many twists and turns."
"Those are the absolute top leaders of the Qing Dynasty."
"Third brother, why are you treating me like a child? Their bottoms were touched.”
Li Qiwei smiled slightly. As a time traveler, he could naturally think about many things clearly based on the history of later generations.
In fact, the core is just one word: interest.
No one will admire or like Li Qiwei for no reason, and he also knows himself.
I am not a beautiful woman who is loved by everyone.
As for his Western learning skills, in the eyes of ordinary people, of course he is astonishing to the heavenly beings and the literary stars descend to the earth.
But in the eyes of Guangxu, Cixi, Zhang Zhidong and others, it is just a technology.
Those who work hard will govern others, and those who work hard will govern others. No matter how powerful the physics knowledge is, it is just "force".
It’s a pity that they don’t know that if their strength reaches a certain level, they can defeat all kinds of magic with their strength.
It doesn’t matter what conspiracy you have, playing with people’s hearts.
I have absolute force.
