    The clay figurine still has three parts of earthy nature, not to mention that Sun Yuanqi is strong-blooded.  Hearing this, he suddenly became furious: I usually treat each other with sincerity, but you actually take your politeness as an excuse.  Do you really think that I, Sun, am weak and can be bullied?  Today I will give you some color to see!

    As soon as he got up, he wanted to break into the box and teach Chen Fengshi a lesson.  If he dared to take a step, he felt something was wrong: in this public place, whether he was punched or cursed, it was pleasant for a while, but after the news spread, it would seriously lose his status and be degrading to his elegance.  The Hubei academic envoy and the general section chief had a fight in a restaurant?  This kind of gossip news is enough to spread laughter and disgrace oneself, and it will also have a negative impact on the current basic education promotion project in full swing in Hubei.  Besides, even if I fall out with him and impeach him for dereliction of duty and dereliction of duty, what will happen?  According to the laws of the Qing Dynasty, the most he could do was dismissal.  Just being dismissed from my job is far from enough to relieve the tightness in my chest.

    After going in, you and Chen Fengshi had an affair, and then secretly beat him up?  Sun Yuanqi thought that he didn't have the kind of city where happiness and anger were invisible, so he probably would have vented his anger without saying a few words during the meeting.

    ?Then pretend you didn¡¯t hear it and let him go?  Sun Yuanqi felt that he was not a person who could do anything he wanted.

    "In short, the bad breath in the chest must be coming from it.  In the blink of an eye, Sun Yuanqi suddenly had a plan in his mind. Then he slowly sat back on the stool, took a few bites of the local specialties Dongpo Pork and Roasted Plums, and hurried to the Huangzhou Government Office.

    Hearing that Master Ti Xue Envoy was visiting, Huangzhou Magistrate did not bother to eat his half-eaten lunch and hurriedly came to the main hall to meet him.  After talking for a long time, Sun Yuanqi asked: "Since last month, we ordered all prefectures and counties to convert primary and secondary schools into public schools, how is the progress of Huangzhou Prefecture?"

    The magistrate of Huangzhou replied casually: "Since hearing the order last month to change the school to a public school, everyone in Huangzhou has been very happy, thinking that this move will benefit the present generation and will be a great contribution to the future. The lower officials are also very enthusiastic and actively participate in it.  It's just that during the time I came here, several major cases occurred in Huangzhou. The lower official was unable to do anything, so he had to ask Mr. Chen to take charge of the matter together with the professors and instructors in the mansion. Each county tried its best to assist. If you want to know the specific situation, you might as well ask  Master Chen, come here to reply?"

    Where is the big case?  Totally an excuse.  Sun Yuanqi didn't reveal it, so he nodded: "That's fine. I just don't know where Mr. Chen is now?"

    "My lord, please sit down for a moment. I will send someone to invite you immediately!" After saying this, the magistrate of Huangzhou bowed his hands and exited the main hall.

    Sun Yuanqi knew that he wanted to inform Chen Fengshi, but he pretended not to know.

    Chen Fengshi was eating and drinking in a hotel. Where could he find the servants sent by the prefect?  When he found it, he was very drunk.  The family had no choice but to use rice vinegar, strong tea, and cold water to help him regain some consciousness.  He quickly changed into official uniform, stuffed him into a sedan chair, and carried him to the government office.  After going back and forth like this, almost an hour has passed.

    Seeing that Chen Fengshi had arrived late, smelled of alcohol and was hazy, both Sun Yuanqi and the prefect frowned secretly.  After he drank a few sips of hot tea, Sun Yuanqi asked: "Master Chen, how is your health?"

    Chen Fengshi burped from wine and replied with a drunken look: "Master Lao asked, the lower official is in good health and has no discomfort."

    Sun Yuanqi directly pointed out the purpose of his visit: "Mr. Chen, I hurriedly invite you to come here because I want to ask about the progress of Huangzhou's primary and secondary schools being converted into public schools. Can you introduce it?"

    "Reporting to your lord, the reform of Huangzhou Schools has achieved rough results. Dozens of public schools have been established in recent days, and everything is carried out in accordance with the regulations. In more than a month, it will definitely be completed!"

    Sun Yuanqi knew that he was lying and trying different ways to deceive him, so he became more determined to punish him.  Then he continued: "I have received the imperial decree and will leave Hubei in the next few days. The matter is urgent. I wonder if Mr. Chen can hurry up and complete the school reform in Huangzhou as soon as possible?"

    Anyone who is drunk knows that as long as they are not drunk and lying on the ground, they are still conscious, but their thinking slows down and their control is weakened.  This was the case for Chen Fengshi. Hearing that Sun Yuanqi was leaving Hubei in the near future, he immediately beamed with joy without any concealment: "Haha, sir, even if we hurry up, I'm afraid it will take more than ten or twenty days!"

    Sun Yuanqi nodded: "Okay! According to the decree of the imperial court, I will be granted a three-month leave of absence to go abroad to inspect academic affairs. In this way, I will not be able to take care of the supervision of the province's academic affairs at the same time, and I will only have to trouble you, Mr. Chen. I  You are required to complete all matters in Huangzhou within twenty days, and then inspect various prefectures and counties in Hubei for me to personally investigate the preparations for public primary and secondary schools, including the number of schools, school building area, number of teachers and students, school funding, difficulties encountered, etc.  It must be verified on the spot and no negligence is allowed. We will strive to complete this investigation within half a year. If there are any untruths, we will be severely punished!"

    &nbspSince the Gengzi Revolution, the emperor and the queen mother have encouraged reform and implemented the New Deal.  The year before last, several groups of ministers were sent overseas to inspect the constitutional governments of various countries.  After the ministers who went abroad for inspections returned home one after another, the Queen Mother weighed the pros and cons and decided to prepare to imitate constitutional government.  In our humble opinion, constitutional monarchy is the most suitable political system for the Qing Dynasty. Once successful, just like the Meiji Restoration in Japan, a rich country and a strong military will be just around the corner!

    "However, the current domestic regulations are not prepared and the people's wisdom is not yet developed. There is an urgent need to promote and popularize constitutional knowledge. In view of this, my colleagues and I established the Preparatory Constitutional Association in Yuyuan in November last year to 'enroll the constitution in accordance with the imperial edict and develop the local gentry and people'  With the purpose of "political knowledge', we actively urged the court to establish a constitution as soon as possible. In a few months, there have been hundreds or thousands of participants!"

    Sun Yuanqi nodded: Oh, it turns out to be a political group advocating the implementation of a constitutional monarchy!  But why do you come to me?  Is it to solicit sponsorship or to recruit me to join the membership?

    "I wonder what Mr. Baixi thinks of a constitutional monarchy?" Seeing Sun Yuanqi always silent, Zhang Jian interjected from the side.

    In front of a group of fanatics advocating constitutional monarchy, can I say anything bad?  Aren't you pointing at the monk and scolding the bald donkey?  Sun Yuanqi had no choice but to reply: "It is naturally good to establish a constitutional monarchy. However, I am afraid it will take a few more years to know how effective it will be."

    "Well, we organized this guild just to avoid all kinds of disadvantages and to achieve the best results of the constitutional monarchy!" Zheng Xiaoxu said, "I am here to sincerely invite Mr. Baixi to join the guild. As long as he agrees,  Xiaoxu is willing to give up his position as president!" (To be continued.
