Seeing that Emperor Tongzhi recognized his identity, Ito Hirobumi quickly straightened his appearance and knelt on the deck to bow to the emperor of the Qing Dynasty.

"The small people of the lower country, Ito Hirobumi of the Choshu Domain, meet His Majesty the Emperor of the Upper Kingdom, long live! Long live! Long live!" After speaking, he bowed respectfully and saluted to Emperor Tongzhi.

The Japanese nation, which did not survive the victory in the First Sino-Japanese War, was born with a kind of reverence for the civilization of the mainland, and they did not look at the people who shouted the emperor in their mouths, but in fact, how small and poor the Japanese country was, and how much power the emperor had, they themselves knew very well.

This kind of reverence did not gradually change until after the victory of the First Sino-Japanese War, and now no one in the whole of Japan dared to disrespect the emperor of the Qing Dynasty.

Emperor Tongzhi bowed his head and said angrily to Ito Hirobumi: "Although you attacked us at the beginning of the Great Qing Dynasty and had problems with governance, I can't say anything about you if you are justified and well-founded, but why is your mouth full of nonsense later? What kind of footcloth, menstrual blood, are you also a gentleman's words?"

"If you don't cultivate morality, you are full of nonsense, you are also a scholar! If you are like this, you have to reform all your identities!"

Ito Hirobumi straightened his waist suddenly, "Your Majesty!" he said with a face full of grievances, "When did the foreign minister talk nonsense? This is true......

"Nonsense! I'll kill you...... Why haven't I heard of it, when did I do such a thing in Daqing?" said Zaichun and pounced on him to fight again.

At this time, Xiao Letian spoke, "Enough! What a fuss!" With a low roar, Zaichun immediately retreated like a cat and mouse, but he was still very aggrieved in his heart.

"Master...... He scolded me!"

Xiao Lotian glared at him, "What Ito Hirofumi said is not wrong, you don't know that it's because the courtiers below didn't tell you that the army of the Qing Dynasty really did this kind of thing......"

"Needless to say, when Mailer led his troops to attack Tanggu, he used dung soup and black dog blood, as well as toilets and foot wraps, and threw them on the trenches of our marines...... Hehe, I almost didn't disgust my brothers to death at that time!"

"Further afield, during the Daoguang period, the British fleet attacked Guangzhou, and Yang Fang, the governor of Hunan, was ordered to go to Guangzhou to assist Lin Zexu to resist the British, and as a result, he got the so-called toilet array, which was filled with feces and black dog blood footcloths or something, thinking that the turbidity could break the ocean, and the result was of course self-evident......"

Jae-soon was stupid when he heard "I...... Why don't I know anything? Why didn't anyone tell me?"

Xiao Letian sneered and said, "Don't talk about you, those people even dare to deceive Emperor Daoguang, Yang Fang and Yishan have been defeated again and again, but they have continuously reported victories to the imperial court, saying that they have won battles again and again, and then negotiate with Britain in private, they are bullying the whip of the Beijing Division, and they are playing with poor information......

"This is not the end, when Yang Fang was defending Zhejiang, he even asked the soldiers to make up and dress up as tigers to show off their might in front of the position, which means that tigers eating foreign (sheep) are really sad and lamentable......"

Jae-chun is not a little emperor in the Forbidden City who has never seen the world now, he has read thousands of books and traveled thousands of miles, and he has carefully studied the natural science textbooks in the Ryukyu Western-style school many times.

Of course, Jae-chun, who had already enlightened himself, knew which superstitious things were simply fooling people, and when he heard the iron-like facts, his little face suddenly turned red.

"I ...... I'm ...... How could this be...... "Zai Chun was ashamed to stammer, and he was embarrassed in front of the Japanese to lose face to this part, and the little emperor had the mind to jump into the sea.

Of course, Xiao Letian knows Zaichun's temper, this child is very high-spirited, in history, he had to rebuild the Old Summer Palace after being pro-government, and his mother was hard topped, and he was also a rebellious teenager in his bones, so he had to talk about education methods for this kind of child.

"You don't have to be like this, now the whole of Asia is slowly waking up in ignorance, this is not achieved overnight, this has to be done with terrazzo...... In fact, look at what happened to Ryoma-kun, and what happened to those white tiger boys, you will know that Japan's ignorance is far better than that of the Qing Dynasty......"

Zaichun thinks about it, too, everyone here has begun to eat human flesh, the degree of ignorance can be imagined, although it is a little fifty steps and a hundred steps of laughter, but the mood is somewhat better.

After the impact was resolved, Zaichun and Ito Hirobumi shook hands and said goodbye, Ito Hirobumi hurriedly said that he didn't dare, and finally Zaichun rewarded him with a jade wrench, which was regarded as making amends for his sins.

Ito Hirofumi never expected that he could be rewarded by the Qing Emperor, and he was so excited that he quickly knelt down and kowtowed, and this jade wrench will become an heirloom of the Ito family for generations, of course, this is a later story.

In the cabin, Ryoma-kun's face gradually became rosy, the wounds on his body were also stitched up, and Ito Hirofumi officially knelt in front of Xiao Lotian to bow to his teacher.

Ito Hirofumi perfectly answered Xiao Letian's tricky question, which made Xiao Lotian once again strengthen his confidence in cultivating him as Ryomajun's deputy, in the face of the complex and changeable situation in Japan, without such a flexible politician to sit in charge, sooner or later there will be chaos.

After setting up the table and chairs, Xiao Lotian gave the first lesson to Ito Hirobumi, in fact, he also taught this lesson to all the people present, where is the biggest lesion in Japan now.

"You just asked me where the real lesion of Japan is, and I can tell you very clearly now, Naiya Bushido, defeat also Bushido, you Japan will take a big advantage in Bushido, of course, you will also plant a big heel!"

Everyone was sitting in a precarious position, especially Ryoma-kun and Ito Hirobumi who were so nervous that they didn't even dare to blink their eyes for fear of missing a word.

"Well, Japan is a country that is different from other Asian countries, you have a very long military politics, but civilian politics has been suppressed for thousands of years, since the Southern Song Dynasty Ping Qingsheng opened the samurai world, the civil and military disputes have run through the entire Japanese history ......"

"In China, whether it is the Ming or Qing dynasties, most of the time the civil and political forces are strong, but you Japan is different, most of the time it is the samurai class who rule the country, which has formed a traditional ......."

"So I can assert that even if you succeed in the Japanese Restoration, the government restructuring and the initial industrialization succeed, you will eventually be taken away by the samurai, this is not possible but certain!"

Xiao Lotian sighed, "Once the samurai politics have an absolute advantage in the war, then Japan will be full of aggressiveness, coupled with the huge power brought by the success of the Restoration and industrialization, it will make those arrogant warriors arrogant, this is like a gambler who has been winning money at the gambling table, he will keep betting, he will fantasize that his luck will never fade......"

"Such a madman has only one end, that is, to completely lose all the chips, and even lose his own life, everything is just a fantasy for him......"

Hiss...... Everyone present gasped, and Ryoma Sakamoto trembled his lips and said, "No, right? Will there be such serious consequences? Impossible, absolutely impossible!"

At this time, I saw Ito Hirobumi's pragmatism and calmness, and he nodded, "What the master said is not wrong, I am free to study some Sinology, and I have also studied in the UK, and I also have a little understanding of Asian and European politics......

"The Central Plains Dynasty has been very prosperous since ancient times, although it gives outsiders the feeling that the Central Plains people are not lucky enough, and even feel a little cowardly, in thousands of years of history, the barbarian invasion of the Central Plains civilization continues, but the counterattack of the Han civilization is few......"

"But what is very strange is that the territory controlled by the Han civilization is getting bigger and bigger, although there will be ups and downs for hundreds or even hundreds of years in the middle, but the general trend is the same......

"Cowardice has expanded its territory, and there must be a reason for this, and then I thought about it carefully, and I think the core reason is in civil politics...... China has produced many outstanding politicians and strategists since ancient times!"

Speaking of this, Xiao Letian immediately asked, "Oh! Then let me ask you, what is the difference between a politician and a politician? What is the difference between a strategist and a tactician?"

In Xiao Letian's encouraging gaze, Ito Hirofumi blushed slightly, "I say it in vain, and everyone listens to it...... Personally, I think strategists and politicians, they are in a higher position, they have a more long-term vision, they understand the power of time and patience, they know what real negotiation and compromise are......"

"Yes, that's right, they understand the art of compromise, they know how to retreat as advance, on the surface you think he is cowardly, but in the end it is these people who take advantage......"

"Tacticians and politicians, on the other hand, are much short-sighted, they are more aggressive, and they are more focused on practical interests, once these people have the upper hand, they will be unforgiving!"

"From my point of view, 99% of the samurai class in Japan are tacticians and politicians, even if there are one or two real strategists and politicians once in a while...... I don't think it will end well!"

With a snap, Xiao Letian slapped his palms, "That's right, it seems that you have really put in a lot of effort! The way of civil and martial arts is like yin and yang, it must be blended together, and it is right to walk on two legs!"

"Occupying a piece of land, or getting a piece of actual benefits, this is what a warrior should dare to do, but how to digest the meat in his mouth and turn it into his own flesh and blood depends on the water mill of the literati......"

"Why has the Chinese nation been attacked by barbarians, but its territory is steadily increasing? ha...... It would not have been possible without clever politicians and strategists!"

"Therefore, the core problem of Japan is that the martial arts are too strong and the civil officials are too weak...... Let me make another prediction, in the future, assassination will definitely become common in Japanese politics, and what happened to Ryoma-kun will definitely continue to repeat......"

"Sooner or later, one day, you will kill all the wise men in your own nation, and the white land you killed is really clean!"

Hearing only a pop, Ito Hirobumi knelt on the ground and burst into tears, "Please master for guidance, please teach me ......" At this time, even Sakamoto Ryoma couldn't do it, and struggled to salute Xiao Lotian.

Xiao Lotian held Ryomajun steadily, and said with a long sigh: "Don't be like this, many things still have to be done by everyone!

Note: Recently, many readers have to give me red envelopes in the group, and I reiterate here that I will not ask you to use QQ and WeChat to give any red envelopes, and I will not ask for any of them.

When I write a book, what I want to earn is a normal subscription, because it is natural to read the genuine version to subscribe. But extra money, I don't advocate everyone to give, because no one's money is blown by the wind.

You can subscribe to the main station more.,Read a chapter for 9 cents.,I'm looking for everyone to ask for this money.,I'm also more confident.。

It's like eating in a restaurant, the subscription is the meal money, which everyone should give, and other red envelope tips belong to tips. Why do so many people tip directly instead of paying for food? I really don't understand.

Okay, I'll change it today, because yesterday's main station subscription was only 3 yuan, and I'm already crying and fainting in the toilet, let me borrow wine to drown my sorrows!

I'm so sad that I only subscribe for 3 yuan a day...... How badly I have to write this book!
