Looking at the voice of Zaifeng who slowly retreated, Cixi's eyes actually shed a little tear, this is the second time she has shed tears since her husband died in Chengde. She knows that the Great Qing Kingdom, from today onwards, will exist in name only.

After thinking about it overnight, Cixi also figured out that since they were all about abdicating, what did it matter if Liaodong received it earlier or later.

Tired, it's time to rest, looking at Xianfeng's portrait, Cixi smiled, and then looked at Li Lianying in front of her: "Pass the meal." ”

Li Lianying has been waiting for this sentence for a long time, so when she saw Cixi talking about eating, Li Lianying was so happy that she ran out like a child.

Didi .......... Didi ......... Post and Telecommunications Bureau, a telegram began to be transmitted in the direction of Baoji.

"Report, just intercepted Chengdu to send a telegram from Baoji, and the imperial court has agreed to our suggestion." A telegraph soldier trotted to Zhong Lin to report to the end, and then handed over the telegram in his hand, Zhong Lin, who heard this, was puzzled at first, and then looked at the telegram again, and suddenly snapped the telegram in his hand and pushed the door open and ran to the place where Liu Jun was staying.

"Head, good news, good news." There were still about twenty meters away from Liu Jun's residence, and Zhong Lin had already shouted.

Liu Jun, who was drinking tea inside, heard the crying wolf of Zhong Lin, and immediately said to Zheng Yiqian, who was standing next to him: "Chengdu is calling." ”

Zheng Yiqian didn't speak, but she still smiled, acknowledging Liu Jun's meaning.

"Head, I just intercepted the Chengdu telegram, and the imperial court has agreed, we can receive it." Zhong Lin, who ran in, said after handing the telegram to Liu Jun.

Well, I am very satisfied, Liu Jun, who heard this, smiled, and then said to Zhong Lin: "Inform Li Jingfang that the agreement with the imperial court will be officially signed tomorrow." ”

"Understood." Zhong Lin answered, and after writing down the order in the notebook, he turned around and walked out of the room.

August 6, 1905, at nine o'clock in the morning. On the third floor of the Zuixian Building, a very low-key signing ceremony was underway, and Li Jingfang, who was wearing Hanfu, accompanied by Wang Shizhen, Wu Tingfang and others, came to the former negotiation table and quietly waited for the arrival of the court personnel.

Today is the day when Liaodong and the imperial court finally signed the agreement,

At 10 o'clock, the representatives of the imperial court, Zhang Zhidong, Songpan and Zaitao, entered the venue.

In order to save a little face for the imperial court, no reporters were arranged this time, and everyone was an old acquaintance from the beginning.

On the table, there is a plan that has been determined, after this plan has been signed, the Great Qing Kingdom will announce its abdication on the 14th, and then the southwest region will be officially incorporated into Liaodong, and since then, the Great Qing State that has existed in the East for more than 200 years no longer exists.

The atmosphere of the meeting room was a little wrong, compared to the happy smiles of the Liaodong side, the representatives of the imperial court were pessimistic, and no one wanted to sign the name of this kind of destruction of the country on it, but the situation forced it, even if they did not sign, someone else would sign it.

"Lord Wang, it's better for you to sign." Looking at the document on the table, Zhang Zhidong lowered his head and thought twice, and then said to Zaitao who was standing in front of him.

Zaitao knew that he couldn't escape today, he didn't hesitate, picked up the brush, quickly dotted the ink, and signed his name on the documents of the imperial court, and at the same time, Li Jingfang on the opposite side also picked up the brush and signed his name on the agreement.

Bang....... Bang....... Bang........... While the two sides were exchanging documents, the ten doors placed outside you ran and began to fire salute shells into the sky.

The rumbling sound of cannon came into Liu Jun's ears, and Liu Jun, who heard this sound, did not react much, but picked up the map from the side again, and began to talk about it, and his eyes shifted to Yunnan.

In the entire southwest region, the most important border is in Yunnan, Yunnan, and Myanmar and Vietnam are borders, Myanmar is now a British colony, although the current relationship with Britain is relatively good, but this is secondary, in a short time, Liu Jun estimates, then Britain and France will react.

In order to prevent retaliation from Britain and France, Liu Jun convened Wang Shizhen and others two days ago to discuss how to deal with possible things in the future.

According to Wang Shizhen's suggestion, a corps was placed in Kunming, Yunnan, and then a corps was placed in the west, that is, in the place where it was handed over to Tibet, so that the corps in Kunming was located, and the corps on the border was a mobile force, and then it was contingency, and in the back, that is, in Guizhou, Wang Shizhen suggested that a corps in Guizhou be divided into two parts, one army in Liupanshui, and the other army was not in Guiyang, but in Zunyi, so that one south and one north, Guizhou's defense was adjusted.

For Wang Shizhen's suggestion. Liu Jun once considered that this is indeed a numbered method, but there are still certain flaws in it, that is, once the Yunnan side fights, if Guizhou wants to support, the troops will be too scattered. It is impossible to gather forces quickly.

"You're still thinking about it?" Seeing Liu Jun pondering in front of the map, Zheng Yiqian on the side walked over and said.

Liu Jun did not object, but nodded, he was indeed thinking about how to go next in Yunnan.

Zheng Yiqian didn't think of it so far, now she thinks about one thing, that is, the stability of the southwest region, she originally thought that Liu Jun would go back and think about these things, but she didn't expect that Liu Jun had actually thought of Yunnan, what is the use of just getting better, the entire southwest is stable, then Yunnan will be stable, Yunnan is stable and the southwest is stable, it is not empty.

I have always wanted to raise this question with Liu Jun, but I have not had time for this time, and now seeing that Liu Jun is still troubled, Zheng Yiqian, who can't hold back, said all her thoughts at once.

After listening to Zheng Yiqian's words, Liu Jun did not rush to speak, but after waiting for nearly twenty minutes, Liu Jun threw the map aside.

Liu Jun figured it out, now that the affairs of the imperial court are not completely over, he began to go to Yunnan here, which is a bit of a feeling of wanting to run before he learns to climb,

It seems that he is too nervous, Liu Jun, who took a deep breath, shook his head helplessly, he felt that he was too worried about the indirect threat of Britain and France, in fact, Zheng Yiqian was right, as long as the southwest is stable, Britain and France will not dare to mess around.
