After the Xuzhou affair was completed, Guo Ye no longer stayed in Xuzhou, and went south along the Grand Canal again, all the way south through Yangzhou, Suzhou and other places, and arrived in Hangzhou, and then rode a horse to the south again to inspect Fujian and Guangdong, and in a month and a half, he inspected the entire southeast coast, and finally returned to Tianjin by steamer and returned to Beijing.

Back in Beijing, it has been a year coming, Guo Songtao is in charge of the capital, and Li Hongzhang and Zuo Zongtang are in the border, and the country is very peaceful.

Guo Songtao and Xue Fucheng just saw Guo Ye and began to complain about Guo Ye.

"Your Majesty, you are too reckless in Xuzhou, what if those people shoot on the spot? You are the master of all things, and you can't afford to make any mistakes! ”

Guo Songtao spoke harshly and fired at Guo Ye.

Guo Ye knew that he was at a loss, so he let the two of them spray, just accompanied by a smiling face, and did not defend himself.

After the anger of the two people subsided, Guo Ye asked: "Okay Bochen, things have happened, I won't be so impulsive in the future, how is the matter of the Supervision Department?" ”

Guo Songtao snorted coldly: "What can it do?" We received your telegram, and began to act, now Brother Zhihuang and Dinghai have returned to the capital, the entire inspection department has been completely formed, in less than two months, the inspection department sent more than 70 people to six provinces to supervise the local government, holding the sword of Shang Fang, the dare to play tricks, will be severely punished, I believe that the problem of corruption in various places, will be curbed. ”

"Yes, these days, Zhili, Henan, Shanxi and other places have come to the news, although all places have their own problems, but not all as serious as Xuzhou, all over the country has begun to prepare for the construction of inspection halls, inspection bureaus, only responsible for the superiors, and the local government has no half-cent relationship, no ties, naturally can be effectively restricted."

Ding Baozhen said in a deep voice.

"These alone are not enough, it is time to set up our parliament to legislate, and it cannot be delayed any longer!"

Guo Ye said, "If you want to curb corruption, you must have a system to ensure it, and fighting like this seems to be deterred by human heads and blood, it can only work for a while, and after a long time, even our fair and honest team will be assimilated, and there must be a complete supervision system and laws to ensure citizens' right to speech, just like in the West!" ”

Xue Fucheng nodded and said: "Your Majesty is right, the reason why the Western government can be more dynamic than the Manchu government is that it relies on the system, relies on the power of the ordinary people, and all the key positions are elected by the people. Suppressed by the imperial power for thousands of years, now Chinese have too much servility in their hearts, and they don't even dare to resist......"

"Therefore, we need two hands, one hand in the court and one hand in the people, and the court is to revise the law and improve the political system. The hand of the people is the newspaper, and the newspaper is used to awaken the people's awareness of their rights, and the newspaper is used to supervise the officials, and the newspaper must be absolutely protected in the country! There must never be such a thing as "Awakening" again! ”

Guo Ye said in a deep voice, "For these two things, I specially recruited a cadre from the south, Brother Zhongtao, let's meet everyone." ”

Xue Fucheng on the side smiled and said, "Your Majesty, do you still need to introduce this?" I'm a native of Jiangsu and Zhejiang, and the celebrities in Jiangnan can't say that they all know each other, at least half of them, I have known Brother Zhong Tao for a long time, but over the years, because of the imperial court's wanted, I have lost contact, Brother Zhong Tao, don't say a few years, but it's okay? ”

Wang Tao smiled bitterly: "Chunfu, after a few years, you have soared into the sky, but I am still nested in the shallow pool, what a life encounter......"

"Is it late?"

Xue Fucheng laughed and said: "Brother Zhongtao, you are only in your forties now, you are in the prime of life, this Chinese Empire is enough for you!" With His Majesty's appreciation, are you still afraid that there is no use for force? ”

Guo Ye replied: "Yes, Brother Zhong Tao, this time I invite you to go north, not only for you to prepare a newspaper, but also to rely on your knowledge to plan the first constitution for the empire, a law in the true sense!" ”

Wang Tao's face turned straight and replied: "Your Majesty, planning the constitution is not a simple matter, and it is far from being completed by the strength of one person, especially if you want to draw up a law similar to the West, even more so, after all, there are too few people who understand Western law......

"Hehe, Brother Zhong Tao, this is what you underestimate the heroes of the world, look at Chunfu, he studied Western politics and law in the United States, and he is famous in the United States, and now the first batch of students studying in the United States will also graduate and return to China, we don't have to worry about no one now!"

Guo Ye said with a smile: "Brother Bochen, the next thing is to bother you, pass on the will, officially prepare for the establishment of the Law Assembly, the number of the Legislative Assembly is about three hundred, ten people from each of the eighteen provinces outside the Guannai, and five people from each province in the future of the three eastern provinces outside the Guan, Inner and Outer Mongolia, as well as Xinjiang, Qinghai, Tibet and other places, the Chinese People's Army will form a military parliamentarian group, and each legion will send three soldiers to serve as parliamentarians; The Royal Family and the Government Council jointly invite no less than 50 celebrities from all walks of life to form the National Parliament, which convenes a plenary session every four years to examine and approve the major policies and legal systems of the State, and the daily affairs are entrusted to the Parliamentary Committee. “

Guo Ye didn't speak quickly, but the people present could hear it clearly, and between laughing and talking, Guo Ye actually got the matter of the council done.

Guo Songtao smiled bitterly: "Your Majesty, you have already said it so clearly, so what do you want me to trouble......"

Guo Ye said angrily: "Don't be lazy, I just said a direction, as for the specific affairs, don't they all have to be called in your hands?" ”

Guo Songtao shook his head and replied: "Your Majesty, the affairs of government affairs are enough for me to be busy, and if you add the affairs of the Legislative Assembly, Your Majesty, I will not be able to live, and for Western affairs, I am not as proficient as Chunfu, and at the worst, Zhongtao and Shuyun will surpass me, and I will take the initiative to let Xian ...... in this matter."

Guo Ye nodded and replied: "In this case, leave the matter to Shu Yun, Brother Zhong Tao, as for the matter of the constitution, you will take the lead in preparing for it, if you have a favorite candidate, you can invite yourself, if you need me to come forward with Bochen, just tell us, the most important thing is to come up with a constitution that can be passed on to future generations and will be useful for thousands of years!" ”
