However, in sharp contrast to the refusal of banner officials from all over the country to obey the edict, the three provinces under the jurisdiction of King Zhennan are implementing the new policy at a jaw-dropping speed, especially those loudspeakers that have been installed at the township level.
It repeatedly played the content of the New Deal to let the people know the news in the most direct way.
Almost at the same time, it was announced that all academic administrations in various places would be abolished. The original academic administration offices would be unified into middle schools, the county level would be changed into junior high schools, and the government level would be changed into high schools. All activities related to the imperial examinations would be stopped. It turns out that those scholars who have a good reputation will be among the best.
All honorary titles were revoked, and the Green Camp was also abolished. Those military officers at all levels who came to serve as officials from other places were directly expelled. The Green Camp soldiers were transferred to the police stations originally established in the county, and at the same time, these people were used to set up police stations at the township level.
Officials at all levels, including those in provincial capitals, were greatly streamlined, and all those official positions that were of no use at all were abolished. Officials who were removed were willing to return to their hometowns for severance pay, and those who were willing to stay were intensively trained in provincial capitals. After the training, they were assigned other jobs.
The local governors at the county and township levels have been completely changed to an electoral system. At the same time, voters' qualifications have been standardized and formal voter IDs have been issued. For example, they must be literate. There are also property restrictions and residence time restrictions. It is a complete joke to have universal suffrage in this era. Let's
It would be better not to allow those illiterate villagers to vote. The property restrictions are actually very low. Basically, anyone who is not extremely poor has the right to vote. However, there are strict regulations on electoral fraud. As long as such crimes occur, they will be punished.
Severe fines, up to and including death.
However, provinces and prefectures, including the original Zhili Prefecture, were simply changed to prefectures at this time. The local governors at these two levels are still personally appointed by the King of Zhennan for the time being. With Prince Yang's current situation, what kind of comprehensive democracy can we use?
This is nonsense. He is just creating a weird system that is semi-dictatorship and semi-democratic. A complete constitutional monarchy will take time to develop.
In addition, government agencies at all levels have also been completely reorganized. The original messy things have been reorganized into various bureaus, such as the Finance Bureau, the Industrial and Commercial Bureau, the Agriculture Bureau, etc., plus the original police stations and courts.
A modern government system was established. The chiefs at the county level were appointed by the elected county magistrate, but they must be approved by the county assembly. The police station was appointed by the prefectural level. As for the courts, no local officials have the power.
To interfere, an application must be submitted at the provincial level and submitted to the King of Zhennan for personal approval.
As for shaving your hair and changing clothes, it doesn't matter. You can wear whatever you like without anyone's forced interference. However, the issue of cutting braids has been implemented very thoroughly. The garrison in each province is responsible for doing it and specially sends out hair-shaving teams.
Everywhere, it is compulsory to cut off one's braids. This is an imperial edict. How can we make fun of it? The emperor has said that who dares not to cut one's braids?
This series of reforms did not cause any dissatisfaction, and even if there was dissatisfaction, it was dissatisfaction with the emperor. The New Deal was issued by the imperial court, and Prince Yang only made slight changes here, not to mention those affected have received certain compensation, but other
The provinces are not so simple. Except for those who refused to obey the imperial edict, even those who did not basically regarded the New Deal as a piece of paper. The only one left who seriously implemented it was the Governor of Zhili, Zhang Yinhuan. Unfortunately, his implementation was useless.
, if the officials at all levels below do not implement it, it will still be a piece of paper. He, who is also an official in the world, has no choice but to turn a blind eye to this situation.
Therefore, after Guangxu's vigorous New Deal, only one of them was implemented nationwide, abolishing the imperial examination. Even the local officials who refused to accept the imperial edict had nothing to do with this. Anyway, the imperial court no longer takes the imperial examination, and it is useless for you to keep it. But
In this way, his authority is gone. In fact, the imperial court can be said to exist in name only. Basically no one listens to him outside Beijing. Even if he speaks in Beijing, it is not very effective. Although the provinces are not independent
, but it’s almost the same as independence. Basically, none of the governors pay taxes.
Looking at the content of Guangxu's New Deal in his hand, Prince Yang couldn't help feeling that the last trace of His Majesty's value had been squeezed out by himself. The rest was to find an opportunity to kick him away. I believe that such an opportunity would not take long.
He has not left France yet. In fact, he is not planning to leave in the near future. As for domestic matters, he can leave it to Xue Fucheng. How to deal with it has been planned for a long time. Besides, he is not very good at these government affairs.
No matter, Prince Yang has to wait in France to watch the fun! The Filipino petition group is coming day and night. You can't miss such a good show. After leaving the filming of the movie to the Lumiere brothers, he led a group
Women began to travel around, especially Austria, where Francis I was still waiting for him to visit Schönbrunn Palace!
However, in this ancient palace, he did not see the legendary queen. At this time, the couple had already separated, but they did not divorce because of the royal family's reputation. Princess Sissi was abroad.
Traveling, it won't be long before someone stabs him to death with an awl. This shows that Hollywood is really harmful to people. When those audiences lamented that beautiful relationship in front of the screen, they probably wouldn't know the ending of this beautiful queen.
How miserable?
"Fairy tales are all lies!" When leaving Schönbrunn Palace, Prince Yang couldn't help but look out the car window at the beautiful palace and exclaimed. He also gained a lot in Austria, which was petrified by the Yang family in Sweden.
and the Austrian government will jointly build a large-scale oil refinery in this country, so that the crude oil resources of the Austro-Hungarian Empire can be fully utilized.
After leaving Austria and visiting Switzerland for a few days, the Filipino patriots finally arrived in Rome. Here they were warmly welcomed by thousands of righteous European people who organized themselves. When they publicly displayed the shocking photos,
, the call to support the just cause of the Filipino people resounded throughout Europe, and then the petition group held these photos and rushed to the Vatican, surrounded by righteous people, requesting an audience with His Majesty the Pope, crying to the great father about the brutal massacre of them by the Spaniards, and
It gave the Pope a headache.
To be honest, he really didn't want to get involved in this mess. The Holy See at this time was not in the Middle Ages. To be honest, it was just a symbol. Spain was the most important Catholic country, and the two masterminds behind this incident were not from a Catholic country.
Germany is a Lutheran, and although it recognizes the Pope, it has no interest in dealing with it. As for the Russians, not to mention, they are Orthodox and are not under the jurisdiction of the Holy See. It is wrong to think that these two countries will offend a staunch Catholic country.
But not expressing anything will undoubtedly have a serious impact on the Pope's image, especially in this situation where the whole of Europe is paying attention. Leo XIII, who was in a dilemma, scratched his bald head with worry, and at this moment those Filipinos
Patriots also broke the news that the Spanish had exiled an 80-year-old nun for sheltering revolutionaries. This finally gave him a reason to come forward. After meeting with the revolutionaries, he officially issued a statement hoping that the Spanish government would improve.
The humanitarian situation in the Philippines, especially for those of God's people to be treated like their own brothers.
After getting the results they wanted, the Filipino Patriot Petition Group then began to travel to major European powers, hoping that they could seek justice for the poor Filipino people. These people were publicly received by the Kaiser in Germany, and the German government followed
They issued a statement demanding that the Spanish army prohibit the use of poison gas bombs when fighting these true Filipino patriots. In addition, the Austrian government, which was in partnership with Germany, also met with them and issued the same statement.
However, Britain and France, who knew the details of this matter and were firmly opposed to Germany's intervention in the Philippines, refused to meet the petition group. However, they obviously underestimated the determination of these monkeys. Dozens of monkeys knelt at the British Palace holding those photos and petition letters.
They sat in silence outside the French Presidential Palace without eating or drinking, attracting countless sympathizers to express their support.
At first, Britain and France thought they could not hold on any longer and dispersed. Who knew that these guys had to kneel all day and night without eating or drinking. Three of them were weak and fainted directly to the ground. One was sent to the hospital because the treatment was ineffective.
Death, instigated by public opinion in various countries, the people of the two countries with an excessive sense of justice became angry, and large-scale protests occurred, leaving the two governments with no choice but to accept their petitions and declare to urge Spain
If we want to improve the humanitarian situation in the Philippines, we should at least stop using poison gas bombs when dealing with these true patriots.
Speaking of which, they were also full of contempt for the Spaniards. They couldn't even defeat the monkeys, and they went so far as to rely on gas bombs to survive.
As for Prince Yang, when the Pope issued the statement, he had already announced that he would no longer export poison gas bombs to Spain, and at the same time expressed his sincere apology for the harm caused to the Filipino people due to his mistakes. Of course, he immediately gained the understanding of the Filipino patriots.
, Isn’t it weird for those who don’t know? It’s impossible for the Spaniards to tell His Royal Highness the purpose of buying gas bombs.
Under strong pressure from the outside world, the Spanish government finally stood up and shyly publicly promised that it would no longer use poison gas bombs in future battles against the Filipino rebels led by Aguinaldo. As for the Bonifacio gang,
When thugs fight, they will not consider this issue. All countries understand this. In addition, Germany, Russia and Austria also require them to start negotiations with the Filipinos as soon as possible to stop this cruel war and concentrate their efforts on eradicating Bonifa Show as soon as possible.
A cancerous tumor.
However, this was rejected by the Spaniards, who would not negotiate with a group of rebels.
