Edo Traveler - Vol 13 Chapter 63

Of course, it is said that it is the creation of a country. In fact, the Japanese kingdom of Chuemon is a grass-level team. It is nothing to do, and it is the kind of first to get the surface up.

No choice, Kujo Shangzhong returned to Kyoto, but Kujo Kosuke stayed in Edo, temporarily serving as the state advisor of Chuemon. There is no rank, it is a consultant, and an additional salary of 1,000 taels is offered.

After Zhongyouemon was enthroned, all the ministers put on the table together, and they were about to change the original name of Zhongyouemon on the spot. What is it to say that the unity of the beginning and the renewal of all things.

It’s okay for you to westernize and modernize, but I’ve never heard of you being promoted to the throne or the king, but you still don’t change your yuan. You have to change the Yuan, and in the future let the people of the world know the name of your new king.

I’m not ready for this!

Songping Qi Xuan blinked, took out a piece of paper from his sleeve, and smiled left and right. Don’t look at this group of people following Chuemon to modernization, but they are still bureaucrats from feudal origin.

When I opened the two-fold paper, I saw that the first year name was “Yuanhua”, and I could see what it meant. Tang. Yan Zhenqing’s poem “Giving Seng Jiaoran”: “Yuanhua’s hidden spirit traces, the first emperor is high and high.”

The detailed explanation can be compared to the creation of the world. The year number is basically the same thing.

The second year name is “Tonghe”. “Book of Rites: Music”: “Great music is in harmony with heaven and earth, and great ceremony is in harmony with heaven and earth.” This should also be well understood.

Under the rule of His Majesty Tokugawa Chuzheng, you should have fun!

Those of us who have transformed into Chinese are very happy anyway. Shangqi is the holy man in governing the world, so that the heaven and earth are in harmony, and everyone praises him. If you are dissatisfied, the Pacific Ocean is not covered, and Japan can come and go freely.

After reading these two era titles, Chuemon felt that these people were a bit flattering. In the end, what is the year name that the smart thinks, can’t it be a little simpler? We, Chuemon, are happy with the people, not the kind of high-spirited ones. Let’s be a little bit down-to-earth and make people look fresh, okay?

As soon as he said it, looking down at the third era, Chuemon was stunned for a moment, then pointed to the era and asked who was the smart one who came up with it.

Taisho!

In the nineteenth hexagram of “Book of Changes”, “pro, just soak and grow. Say and follow, just hit and respond, tycoon is upright, and the way of heaven is also.” Qiang Xi read Xi

“Which one of you planned this?” Chuyouemon put down the paper, then pointed to “Taisho” and asked the ministers on the left and right.

“This?” Matsudaira Qi Xuan Mingming was face to face with Zhongyouemon, and he deliberately looked at it.

“kindness.”

“Oh, it was planned by Jiujiao.” Songping Qi Xuan also paused deliberately, as if this thing still needs some thought. This time Zhang Si

Kujo Kouji nodded slightly, naturally he had to admit it. To put it bluntly, these princes are not as good as those who have studied from generation to generation such as Jiutiao when they talk about the kung fu of understanding ancient classics. They wanted to propose a high-level title for Chuemon, but unfortunately there was a little less stuff in their stomachs.

The last group of people found the nine lucky scriptures, so the two groups hit it off. Kujo Kouji was eager to do something to please Chuyouemon.

“It was planned by the minister.” Kujoyuki is getting old after changing his identity, and now he is generously named a minister to Zhongyouweimen.

Power and money can really change a person quickly.

“Okay, let’s use ‘Taisho’ as the yuan name, that is, change the line to the yuan.” Zhongyouemon took the red pen and made a circle on the “Taisho” to indicate his choice.

“Chengzhi!” Songping Qixuan bowed and held the paper, folded it and put it away.

“Since the Yuan has been changed, the new law should be implemented.” The words have already mentioned this matter, right? Chuemon has also completed the enthronement ceremony and sat upright, and the next thing to do is naturally Xingxian.

I want to express to all countries in the world that I have not only abolished the feudal system, but also imitated the West, and I want to start implementing a constitution, open a parliament, seek public consultation, and promote democracy.

In short, it is to put on a positive attitude to learn from the West, and to release the information of exchange with the West. Let Britain, France and other countries understand the changes in Japan, at least on the surface.

And the point is to learn to lead the British, and we also want a constitutional monarchy!

However, according to Chuemon’s thoughts, for the time being, it may still be an English bone. However, when more people receive secondary and higher education, Chuemon will surely further promote democratic reform and give up part of the power in his hands.

The flexible decentralization ensures that the Tokugawa family will continue into the 21st century.

At the same time as the promulgation of the preparatory decree for the constitution, the lower house, the House of Commons, must be established after the constitution is announced. Now the country has only the House of Lords, the House of Lords, which is inappropriate and inappropriate.

Chuemon has bought the middle and lower level samurai in the whole country, and needs to buy the Miao character saber class further. If you insist on analogy, they can be roughly regarded as the bourgeoisie. UU reading www.uukanshu.com After all, most of these people are engaged in business and handicrafts, have a considerable education, and have a certain wealth. But in feudal society, there is no social class.

This issue was discussed when Chuemon and Yoshida Shoin planned. They have to be given a release gap so that they can touch the power, or feel that they are sharing it.

The best way to do this is to give this category of people the right to vote!

Moreover, it is the kind of voting rights that ordinary people can’t get, and the threshold of voting rights is artificially set, which makes them feel that they are indeed superior to others and have political status. Once and for all is impossible, but a temporary relief is absolute.

Because Western countries have used this trick, there are already many successful examples. There are far and near, from the merchants of the feudal era to the modern “civilized gentry”, there is indeed a kind of confusion.

Let go of the wind first, and shape the image of Chuemon’s promotion of democracy. After waiting for three to five years, Chuemon has sorted out the situation, and the constitution can be enacted.

“What kind of law is it that you want to do?” Suke Six, who had been conferred the title of Earl, opened his mouth to ask. After all, he had a close relationship with Chuemon, so he couldn’t be taboo or something. control the big lord

“Naturally a real ruler and a constitution!” Chuemon blurted out.

Now that I am running a virtual monarchy and a constitution, which political group can immediately jump out to take over and govern the entire world? Even if it is with the British next door, it is still a real monarchy and constitution. Queen Victoria and Prince Albert have unparalleled influence over British state affairs.

Playing with the constitution of a virtual ruler these days, isn’t this a riot.

Of course, when it is announced to the outside world, it must be a constitutional monarchy, and it will not be straightforward and clear like this.
