Wang Renkan just entered the palace today to meet Emperor Guangxu. The young emperor was very diligent and was very concerned about the pursuing of military disciplines. He talked with him in the Yangxin Palace for a long time. Before leaving, the young emperor also revealed an important news. The Governor of Zhili and the Minister of Beiyang had reported to the court on military disciplines and demanded that those military officers who destroyed military disciplines be dealt with severely.

When the young emperor spoke of this news, his expression was very relaxed and he praised Li Hongzhang severely. He was obviously more looking forward to Wang Renkan, and he mentioned many times that when he was to investigate military discipline, he must find out the naughty elements in the army and let the navy of the Qing Empire show combat effectiveness.

The emperor's expectations were obviously beautiful, but this must have put Wang Renkan in a great deal of pressure. In the eyes of the royal family, this time Qingliu attacked the military disciplines, which was definitely a good thing. The outbreak of this situation obviously also indicates that there are indeed problems in the army that bears the lifeline of the Qing Empire, and it is even quite large. However, from Guangxu to Weng Tonghe, they obviously regard the supervision of military discipline as a magic pill, which is obviously incomplete and unrealistic.

When he went back to say goodbye to Weng Tonghe, he encountered this incident that the North Koreans had torn. Now, looking at Lu Hong's strange expression, he obviously had some reservations about the handling of this matter, which made him feel a little displeased and his face turned cold, "Lu Yun Judgment, this matter is related to the fate of the country. Don't you want to share the worries of the cabinet?"

Lu Hong actually figured it out this time. He made this expression because in this matter, if he wanted to convince Weng Tonghe to make a tough attitude, it would actually not have much effect at all. After all, it is Li Hongzhang who directly dealt with the North Korean issue. His energy and ability can completely make his solution impossible for others to pick on.

However, he did have another thing, thinking about whether he could achieve his goal through Weng Tonghe, and this North Korean incident was an opportunity. He hurriedly saluted Wang Renkan and said, "Sir, I have some ideas. I am afraid that it is useless to say it. Instead, I will be scolded by Weng Ge Lao, so I hesitated!"

Hearing Lu Hong's explanation, Wang Renkan felt relieved. Even if Lu Hong is knowledgeable, he might not be able to come up with any solution immediately. He was a little anxious and said, "Lu Yun, why not talk about it with me. I think Mr. Weng Ge is very anxious, and as you said, it may really cause chaos in North Korea!"

The chaos in North Korea... When Lu Hong heard this, he smiled. The chaos in the Bangzi was tinkering with. This was the beginning. If it weren’t for the repeated problems in North Korea, the mentally retarded officials who were praised as saints by the Bangzi Kingdom in later generations would not know how to survive in this chaos, otherwise, the Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1895 might have been delayed... But, that would be meaningful!

In fact, although the Japanese conducted in-depth spy on China in this era, even the first-class Sun-Down Empire in this era still maintained etiquette respect for the huge Far East. If the Japanese had made complete preparations for war, it would be just a deception... However, it was the complete corruption of the Qing army that ultimately led to the complete escalation of the Qing-Japanese War!

The information declassified later shows that during the Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1895, it was the fragile combat power of the Chinese army stationed in Korea that made the Japanese Army's General Staff finally confirm the feasibility of launching a war. In all previous wars, Japanese senior officials had great differences.

So, he immediately replied: "Sir, Japan is a small country. It is definitely not the best way to challenge China rashly. North Korea's affairs provide them with an opportunity to test our country. In my opinion, the elders should use the court to fatally scold the Goryeo royal family. Such assassination methods are really not on the surface. According to my estimate, if the criminal is released, the dispute between Japan and North Korea may be established. At that time, our country's position will be difficult to grasp according to the limitations of the Sino-Japanese Tianjin Treaty!"

Wang Renkan frowned when he heard this. No wonder this guy didn't say it. He also recognized Lu Hong's judgment. If Hong Zhongyu goes back, he will probably be rewarded, not guilty. However, although North Korea is a vassal of the Qing Dynasty, such strict means of scolding the Korean royal family, in his judgment, there will be no following...

"Lu Yun, this... I'm afraid the Pavilion Master will not make any decision. The Qing Dynasty has never had such a convention!" Wang Renkan's face looked a little embarrassed. He asked him to look at this method. He really had no idea to improve this method. And he really couldn't tell Weng Tonghe. He looked at Lu Hong again, "Lu Yun, is there any other way?"

Lu Hong also looked thoughtful, and after a while he spoke, "Sir, there is actually another way. Since the palace thinks that it is inappropriate to hand it over to the British for conviction, it is better to harbor it to Beijing for trial... Even if the Japanese are not satisfied, just drag it... But, if the Koreans cause trouble again, it would be very bad!"

Wang Renkan thought about it for a while and was really the Koreans who were messing around in this matter. Now when he thought about it carefully, he scolded the Koreans hard, which might not be wrong. The two of them were muttering and discussing it. Considering that he was leaving Beijing the next day, he immediately took Lu Hong to Weng's mansion.

When he saw Weng Tonghe, Wang Renkan naturally analyzed the results of his discussion with Lu Hong in detail, which made Lu Hong secretly raise his middle finger to this guy. Weng Tonghe looked quite strange after hearing this. After looking at the top scholar and Lu Hong, he naturally guessed that most of them were the ideas of Lu Yun, who had just taken office. However, this was not a good idea. I am afraid that improper handling would bring him a bad reputation in the future. That would be very bad!

"Ke Zhuang, this matter is not easy to deal with. I will consider your proposal carefully... I will leave Beijing tomorrow, so go back and have a rest!" Weng Tonghe thought that it might affect his reputation, but he was very straightforward to let go. Anyway, if the trouble happened, it was also caused by Li Hongzhang. However, these two subordinates here will definitely earn fame for him when they leave Beijing this time. He once said to Lu Hong, "Lu Yun, a good assistant to Mr. Wang. You are proficient in Western Affairs, so you have to work so hard!"
