071 The Democratic Party for the Democracy

Yi Cheng watched Fang Bingsheng read it once, and then went back to read it again. He waited patiently until Fang Bingsheng began to repeatedly read the key points, and said with a smile: "Brother Fang, what do you think after reading this editorial?"

Fang Bingsheng raised his head and knew that this might be the other party's exam. He widened his eyes nervously and thought for a while and said, "Sai Son and De Son, this is a new word, the first time I have seen it! But His Majesty summarized it well! Then I feel that His Majesty treats De Son and Sai Son equally. Sai Son is not praying for the whole nation when he was born! De Son is very... very... very important!"

Fang Bingsheng stuttered later and couldn't remember the words because he was not very familiar with what De's son was.

"The editorial discussion and its keyword interpretation will be added to the 1871 dictionary. The court is organizing a pen to explain in more detail the relationship and origin of the De Son and the True God. The imperial examination will be required later." Yi Cheng said with a smile.

"Add to the imperial examination system? Isn't that an important idea?!!!" Fang Bingsheng immediately shook his whole body and suddenly stretched out his head and asked, "Will the Crown Prince take the exam for his study abroad this year?"

Yi Cheng was stunned and said, "Isn't this year's imperial examination going to start in a few months? I don't know this."

Upon hearing this, Fang Bingsheng sighed in disappointment. But he was excited when he heard the imperial examination. In fact, what he thought was that if this article would be taken this year, he would immediately run to the train station after a while, and use the internal railway telegram to let his housekeeper guard the imperial newspaper on Wednesday, buy twenty copies as soon as it was released, and then let his bastard memorize it without saying a word.

Yi Cheng saw that Fang Bingsheng was a little distracted and thought Fang Bingsheng could not grasp the key points, so he said his meaning: "We all know how important this son is. Without son, there would be no railways, telegraphs, roads, steamships, foreign guns and cannons, architecture, military science, mathematics, and even matches and nails; now there are no clothes anymore, because the price of foreign cloth has reached 15 to 5% of the original domestic cloth price;"

Speaking of this, Yi Cheng hmmed his nose and corrected: "To be correct, it should be the Scholar of the foreign brothers, our Scholar nephew; our Scholar of the Song Dynasty has no greater invention except the rickshaw invented by His Majesty; but the power of the introduction of this Scholar nephew can destroy the world. With such a small population and territory and the struggle between the Qing Dynasty, isn't it that we first invite the nephew to enter the Scholar?"

"Yes, yes, you're right! Look at the railway, wherever it leads, it will develop like an explosion!" Fang Bingsheng quickly smiled and conformed to the other party's opinion: "For example, Longchuan is my hometown. It used to be a smelly and dirty Tucheng surround. Now in just three years, it is the top ten model small cities in the Song Dynasty! Without the railway, it would not have developed like this in its entire life!"

Yi Cheng looked at the excited Fang Bingsheng, smiled and paused for a moment, allowing Fang Bingsheng to recall his pride in his work, and then continued: "Sai Son is extremely powerful, which is related to the national fortune of our Song Dynasty. Now, no one has doubted the people, from the powerful to the people. But the Emperor of Hai proposed that De Son is as important as Sai Son. This is a shocking new trend. This shows that, ahem, although we don't quite understand what De Son is doing and how to use it, it seems that even the introduction of De Nephew, His Majesty shook his head to express pessimism; but his power must be no less than Sai Son, because it was what His Majesty said. His Majesty has hardly missed a single national policy."

Fang Bingsheng nodded in confusion. Naturally, he didn't know what De's son, what was the first time he donated an official in Western learning? Judging from his handling of the situation, it was really disgusting. It was not as good as the gang opening the incense hall to recommend the person to the person.

Yi Cheng took the press release back from Fang Bingsheng, carefully put it in his briefcase, and said, "So, the election of lawmakers is an absolute big deal, as I told Boss Zhong before, and must get it at any cost."

Fang Bingsheng blinked his panicked eyes and asked in a low voice: "Boss Zhong and you mean that you should do your best in Longchuan? But this place is really a small place, and it is not worth our fight, right?"

"Oh hehe." Yi Cheng laughed, and the other party said, "In addition to Hai Song's fifth national prayer, His Majesty's unparalleled determination, so that we want to win the first prize of national prayer, there is another factor that requires us to do our best in Longchuan."

"What is that?" Fang Bingsheng asked in surprise.

Yi Cheng turned his head and looked at Fang Bingsheng's lost eyes after his success. He spoke, "Just a few days ago, Your Majesty summoned Boss Zhong and said to him, 'Old Zhong, why should you hide it? Of course, your kid is addicted to opium and the ways you make money, you can't give you authority; but since you are so enthusiastic about elections, why don't you stand up from the backstage? Establish your party, I promise you."

"The emperor asked Boss Zhong to establish his own party? Let him come to the front desk?" Fang Bingsheng widened his eyes and understood for a moment why he did not see the telegram or reply, but a living conscience in the Zhong family appeared in front of him.

Yi Cheng nodded and said, "The Emperor clearly stated that your first party was the first time since East Asia created the world. You must have left your name in history. 'I will give you this glory! Go and establish your own party. I know you are ready long ago.'"

"What party is that? Is it established now?" Fang Bingsheng spitted out his tongue.

"The day before yesterday, that is, on Friday, the first political party in East Asia was registered and registered through the review of His Majesty and the court," Yi Cheng let out a sigh of relief: "The Democratic Party of the Song Dynasty."

"The Democratic Party of the Song Dynasty is not a crow..." Fang Bingsheng rolled the three words "Opium" on his tongue and swallowed it back.

In order to hide his incompetence, he stammered: "I have heard the three words of the Democratic Party. Do we need to 'the people make the decision' according to the American brothers?"

"The people are the master? Tell!" Yi Cheng curled his lips and showed a contemptuous expression. He thought for a while and said, "Your Majesty is unprecedented and has no future. He defined it as much as ten thousand times more wise than the Western-translated textbooks! One hundred million times! The meaning of our name is by no means 'the people are the master!'"

Fang Bingsheng screamed: "Hey, I heard Zhong Jialiang give us a lecture, and the foreign staff explained that democracy is the people's decision? Isn't our democracy in the Song Dynasty?"

Yi Cheng put his finger on his lips and made a dangerous move to silence, whispering: "Brother Fang, don't you not know that the Paris mobs are in trouble? They actually closed the city gate and claimed that Napoleon III rebelled without fighting and refused the emperor to return to the city! So in our Song Dynasty, what people are to do? Do you want to kill all the royal family and the powerful? You and I know that this is nonsense. The people are a group of untouchables and cannot make decisions. Boss Zhong and the emperor originally said that democracy is the people's decision, but the emperor sneered and shouted that you, Zhong Jialiang, are the people? Do you want to incite those monkeys to rebel against me? Boss Zhong was so scared that he almost sat on the floor in front of the emperor's desk."

"People! The people are a big wild beast!" Yi Cheng said with admiration: "This is what His Majesty said to Boss Zhong."

"What?! Your Majesty said this to the people?" Fang Bingsheng felt unbelievable. He still felt that the Sea Emperor was a saint who loved the people as much as his son. Which saint king would say that his "son" was a big beast.

"How is it possible? The emperor clearly pointed out that he was citing the original words of the American politician Hamilton at the Philadelphia Federal Constitutional Development Conference in 1787. This was his special statement! He said: 'Remember, it was not what I said, don't write this on me! I don't admit it!'', 'I'm also his original words. Boss Zhong said that His Majesty's tone and emphasis was an exclamation mark." Yi Cheng nodded while saying, with a fanatical glory in his eyes: "If the emperor didn't say it, we don't know much. Now our business Tongwenguan is about to start translating Hamilton's collection! This person is so damn smart!"

Fang Bingsheng ignored Yi Cheng's speech with his face on his face. His face changed. He spread his hands and shouted to Yi Cheng: "Doesn't the books from the West just say that democracy is the people's decision? It's not the people's decision. So what is the Democratic Party?"

Yi Cheng looked at Fang Bingsheng's face and placed his hands honestly on both sides of the briefcase on his knees, as cautious and concise as a gunner was operating an iron cannon. He slowly said: "Just follow the words we talked privately to represent the Democratic Party, and shouted out the words we thought in our hearts - the purpose of our Democratic Party is to make decisions for the people!"

"Make a decision for the people? Are you officials?" Fang Bingsheng was stunned for a while and smiled embarrassedly. It seemed that a student who was not good at studying touched the back of his head ashamedly as a teacher, and said, "It is better to go home to sell sweet potatoes if you are an official but not a decision for the people. Although Mr. Zhong Jialiang said in private that he wanted to make decisions for the people, this is not from Western textbooks, right? The members of the parliament have no staffing and grades, right?"

Yi Cheng said: "Your Majesty said that our parliamentarians and parliament are civil officials. If the election of the parliamentarians is in line with the emperor's wishes, then the parliament will be formed sooner or later. If there is a parliament, will the cabinet be far away? The cabinet is a gathering of plenipotent ministers."

"How is this possible? How could a group of stupid/hush-hush-like garbage produce a sanctioned minister?" Fang Bingsheng pretended to be a disciple of his face, but all the members of Zhong Jialiang were handled by him, so he completely disbelief of what Yi Cheng said in front of him, and he couldn't help but feel confused in his eyes.

It's not contempt, but confusion.

Yi Cheng saw his confused eyes, and expected that he would not believe it. He smiled and said, "Brother Fang, the news of the establishment of our Democratic Party will be published in all newspapers next week with "Son of the People's Prayer for Democratic Party"! We are also the first political party in East Asia since the creation of the world! Politics is to be politically responsible! We can actually talk about it too!! You have always done a great job. The first election campaign established by our Democratic Party must have occurred in Longchuan, so Boss Zhong, please work harder and carry the burden..."

Fang Bingsheng waved his hand and interrupted him. Fang Bingsheng clenched his fists with his hands, put them in a bowing position in front of his chest, and smiled and said, "Mr. Yi, since Longchuan is so important, Boss Zhong and you are both rare geniuses. People like me can only build railways and deal with bad people. Longchuan should be dealt with by you by sending more capable and more familiar with Western learning."

He still wanted to quit. The more important what Yi Cheng said to him, the more Fang Bingsheng gave up. He just worked for Zhong Jialiang for raising funds for his own railway company. It would be okay to cook for his family, but it would be okay to flatter him. Isn't it the case? But if the Zhong Jialiang family caught fire, he could still risk his life to put out the fire? Isn't this a disease?

The greater the responsibility, the more difficult it is. Instead of listening to Yi Cheng's words, it is better to leave yourself. As for the Democratic Party that makes the people's decisions, let's have fun, a group of idiots!

Yi Cheng stared at him, then blinked his eyes, as if he had seen through Fang Bingsheng's thoughts. Yi Cheng laughed out loud, looking as if a well-trained dog bowed to him, Yi Cheng reached out and patted Fang Bingsheng on the shoulder, asking him to put down his claws.

"Mr. Yi Cheng, since this matter is so serious, I am really afraid of myself..." Fang Bingsheng was still begging for mercy, but Yi Cheng shut up with just one sentence.

Yi Cheng said: "Why do you think Mr. Zhong asked you to bear the first Democratic election? Because you were named by His Majesty."

"Your Majesty? Call me for your name? Your Majesty knows me?" Fang Bingsheng pointed at his nose, his eyes almost kicked his glasses, and his mouth couldn't even close.

Yi Cheng nodded and said, "Your Majesty said to Boss Zhong, 'Is the boy Fang Bingsheng you chose very awesome? He thrust me in the face three times in a row. Let him try Longchuan again this time, and use whatever skills you have.'" At this point, Yi Cheng stared at Fang Bingsheng with a smirk, spread his hands and smiled, "Even if we want to change players in the last battle, we can't do it. First, no one is more experienced, more adaptable, and more accurate and effective than you; second, the emperor has appointed you."

Fang Bingsheng did not laugh or reply, but instead lit his nose as if he was dumbfounded on the sofa. In just a moment, the cold sweat on his back soaked in the Western shirt.

Full of fear - the emperor said he had slapped the emperor in the face? What does this mean? Do you want to confiscate your family and destroy your clan? He knew all the things I did? Will you be beheaded?

After a long time of stasis, Fang Bingsheng tried hard to hold his face, which seemed to be rotting and was about to collapse, with tears in his eyes. He asked tremblingly: "Am I going to be shot?"

Yi Cheng was stunned, then laughed again, patted Fang Bingsheng's shoulder vigorously and said, "Where are you thinking about? The emperor is praising you! Your Majesty, have you not seen his way of doing things? If your chess piece is very powerful, black and black, the emperor thinks it is not good, he will modify the rules of playing chess, such as a horse can only move the sun, an elephant can only fly, and a soldier can not come out of the nine-grid grid! However, he will never kill the chess piece! I have analyzed that this is because he thinks the latter is useless. If the way is there, other chess pieces will still do this! So he is a wise monarch. He only sets rules and will not actively interfere with our chess pieces! He is not Zhu Yuanzhang, but Zhao Kuangyin! No, it is just like God did to mankind!"

After a long time, Fang Bingsheng breathed a sigh of relief, reached out and pulled his shirt back, and pulled the wet shirt away from his back. Indeed, His Majesty is not a person who uses murder to realize his holy will. He can do things without killing people, otherwise he would be smart.

"Then can I still bribe votes and buy tickets?" Fang Bingsheng asked carefully.

Two cold lights flashed in Yi Cheng's eyes, pointing at Fang Bingsheng's nose and said, "Brother Fang, why did you ask Boss Zhong to value you? Why did you ask the emperor to name it? Do you rely solely on being open and upright? Just like before, use whatever method you have! Do whatever you want! Don't worry about anything else, as long as you succeed, do it for us! We will not treat you badly! Your elder Mr. Weng Jianguang also gave you the full authority to complete the Longchuan election for us, and the official order should be sent to you today or tomorrow."

Fang Bingsheng was stunned for a long time before he shook his head like a brother who was about to surrender to the public security bureau. He then took out a handkerchief from his pocket and wiped the cold sweat on his forehead. He only felt that it was easy to get on the boat and got off the boat. How vivid that old saying was.

Seeing that it was almost finished, Yi Cheng opened the official document box on his knees again with caution, took out a booklet from it and handed it to Fang Bingsheng.

Fang Bingsheng asked in surprise: "What's this?"

"Your party certificate." Yi Cheng smiled.
