On the four-wheeled carriage, Li Mingxun looked at the report submitted by Ah Hai, and his eyebrows were filled with joy. He said, "Ah Hai, after all, he is a master among the people. I think some people have a more essential understanding of the affairs of the country than our pens. The argument of the seller's daughter is really interesting, vivid and vivid. I can go to the newspaper."

The report in Li Mingxun's hand wrote some information about Chen Bangyan's departure from Taiwan, which was also mixed with some of his performance on the Fuwang sand ship. The report came from intelligence personnel from the Security Bureau. Some important figures like Chen Bangyan were placed in place, so his every move was under surveillance.

"Yes, teacher, when I saw the draft of Chen Bangyan's last article from the hands of the people below, I was still a little worried, for the people to be excited and their relationship with the Ming Dynasty would be broken. Now it seems that the effect is still good." Ah Hai said with a smile.

Li Mingxun nodded and said, "In fact, our honeymoon period with the Ming Dynasty has ended. After the Guangdong War, there was no large-scale immigration from the Great Six. It was a sign that we would no longer have to compromise. The Ming Dynasty was divided and each was settled. In the future, we only need to fight with them without breaking them."

"Yes, it was really difficult to take care of the other party's face and their inner abilities in the past. Now, it's fine, at least it doesn't have to be so full of everything." Ah Hai's words were filled with some gratitude.

Li Mingxun smiled and asked, "Then you say, don't you have to cover everything now, is it important to face or inside?"

Ahai said: "This is going to be divided. Lu Jianguo and Lin Shizhang value real things more. Lu Jianguo is generous in doing things, and Lin Shizhang becomes open-minded. Naturally, it is important to be the inner world. As for Emperor Yongli, it is more important to face."

Li Mingxun looked at Ah Hai's tough and cunning face, patted him on the shoulder, and said, "Ah Hai has really grown up!"

The two got off the carriage and walked straight into the Senate. There were many veterans attending today's meeting, only Yongning, Nagasaki and Luzon, but the rest were here. In addition to these veterans, more than 50 members from various administrative regions and consulates arrived in the political seat.

"Salute to the Consul!" the consuls stood up and bowed.

Lee Mingxun smiled at everyone. He understood the feelings of these people very much. The news about the founding of the country has been made public, and some of the details are also known to everyone. During the founding of the country, many constitutions require members of parliament to participate in the voting, and even a referendum is held. Therefore, many members of parliament who do not have actual positions in various places have arrived, and some even gave up part of their business and have to participate in this grand event.

Of course, what is more important is authority. Everyone knows that the only authority of the society is the Senate. Members can only have real power in local administrative regions. However, as the founding of the country approaches, the Senate has decided to establish an organization called the House of Representatives. All the House of Representatives are divided according to the number of citizens in various places. Although the House of Representatives in the plan only has part of the budget approval, legislation and other authority, and is a supplementary body of the Senate, everyone understands that as citizens become keen on power, the authority of this agency will become increasingly serious.

Relatively speaking, the Senate will exist as the House of Lords and the House of Nobles, and will remain the core of power for a long time in the future. However, the Senate has limited ordinary citizens to join the Senate. The reason is very simple. If you want to join the Senate, it is not possible to rely on votes. You can only rely on military merits. You can either be good at controlling the enemy or pioneering. There are only these two ways. At least the way many people fantasize about is shattered.

Many parliamentarians fantasized that they would strive to promote the term system of the Chief Executive during the founding of the country. After the term ended, the first-level chief executive returned to the base camp to serve as a veteran, and the successor chief executive was elected by local parliamentarians and obtained the status of a veteran by the way.

The term system of the Chief Executive is planned, but the rest are impossible. The first and important second-level chief executives can only be held by officials sent by the Senate, and the successor will not directly obtain the status of the Senate. The purpose of this distribution of power is to make the land under the Senate a united and unified country, rather than a free and loose federal or even a confederate.

After a brief polite greeting, Li Mingxun sat on the main seat of Mr. Xi and listened to the proposals of the elders. The proposals were all about the founding of the country. At first, it was just a question of the national flag and national emblem. The elders had some controversy, but it was just a matter of personal aesthetics. Li Mingxun reconciled in the middle, either let the elders vote or consult the members of the parliament. Hum and hahaha, and the muddy were over.

First, this new country was named the United States of China, referred to as China, and its abbreviation was easily accepted. After all, since ancient times, there have been many feudal dynasties in the East. The United States claimed that this country was a country of citizens, not an empire. There were disputes in the first two words.

The first objection was some new parliamentarians, most of whom came from India, Thailand and Southeast Asia, and places dominated by Christianity and Tianfang religion. In terms of ethnicity, they were far from the Han people, and in terms of culture, they did not belong to the Chinese civilization circle, so they felt marginalized.

These people proposed to prefix with place names, such as the United States of the East, the United States of the Pacific, and even the United States of the Earth. They also asked Simmons, the only alien senator in the Senate to lobby. Simmons was forced to stand on the "opposite" of the Senate again.

Simmons was still a little eloquent, at least his reasons were very sincere and practical. According to Simmons, this new country not only wanted to expel the Qing throne and restore the land of the Great Six, but also to expand the land of other Great Six in the world. This is the consistent strategy of the Senate, and it is understandable. But the key is that the Chinese civilization circle is limited to the East. Not to mention the distant American New Great Six, just to expand the South China Sea, it requires the assistance of local indigenous people. In the chaos in Luzon, it is fully revealed. Since we want to buy people who accommodate some other nations and civilizations, we must be inclusive in the name of the country. We cannot make people hear it as if this country is the country of your Han ethnic group.

Simmons did convince some people, but Li Mingxun did not argue about this. The essence of the land under the rule of the Senate is consistent. That is, the new country must accommodate all ethnic groups, but there can only be one main ethnic group, that is, the Han people, there can only be one civilization, Chinese civilization, only in this way, this country has strong cohesion and will not be divided.

Moreover, Li Mingxun clearly stated that China is different from any Western colonial country. The main reason for inclusiveness of local ethnic groups, civilizations and religions during the colonization process of the Thai countries is that they have poor strength. Spain, Britain, Portugal, and the Netherlands directly mailed millions, and the strongest France is only 20 million people. But China is different. Above the Great Six, China has nearly 100 million people. As long as it occupies land, this nation can take root in any corner of the world suitable for human survival, and then form a huge scale. Yongning is the best example. Nowadays, the Han people have become the absolute subject, and they have done a good job in ethnic integration.

Therefore, on the prefixes of Han characteristics and inclusive characteristics, most people chose the former, but there are also debates between the former. Some people suggest that it is the United States of China, and some people suggest that it is the United States of China. China and China seem to be similar, but in fact it is very different. Let’s talk about China first. This word sounds like a neutral word, but in fact it is completely "self-boasting". Hua is a combination of all positive words. Xia refers to the Xia people, which is the predecessor of the Han people. When translated by Hua Xia, it is awesome Xia people, or awesome Han people. Obviously, this is defined by ethnicity.

China is more of a cultural concept. The middle one originally only refers to the Heluo region in the Central Plains, but as the territory expanded and ethnic integration was integrated, all the territories integrated into it were middle, while China's territories refer to noble and advanced civilization. Therefore, the expanded territory and the races that joined can be called China, and the term Chinese is more inclusive.

Therefore, the country name is defined as the United States of China, which is nationally inclusive, but it also adheres to the pattern of Han nationality as the main body and Chinese civilization as the core. Of course, no matter how it expands in the future, the ancient East will still be the top priority, and the Chinese civilization circle regards the basic foundation of this new country, so it is more realistic.

Until the National Founding Program that was about to be published in newspapers for public disclosure, the fierce quarrel began.

The outline of the founding program was drafted by Li Mingxun himself, and the core was the sixteen big characters, expelling the Tartars and restoring China, and also providing the space for colonization.

Most people have no objection to the basic national policy composed of these sixteen big characters. After all, this country is to pay equal attention to restoration and development. Although the Senate has not yet formally proposed that the new country is the orthodox Chinese orthodox, the clues can be seen from the name of the country. Regarding orthodox, Li Mingxun's meaning is not to fight for it, but to prove it.

It is not even a matter of orthodox. Before Hongguang, Zhu Ming was undisputed orthodox, but after Hongguang, Zhu Ming was divided and unable to resist the Qing army. The orthodox position was challenged. The creation of a new country was only a new orthodox successor. As for who is orthodox, it is actually very simple. Whoever can expel the Tartars and who can restore China is orthodox. Conversely, except for the Manchu Qing Dynasty, whoever owns the homeland of China and who governs the people of China is orthodox.

The new country is a national construction company with both six seas. The status of pioneering is no less than that of restoration. In terms of limited recent strength, the actual benefits of pioneering are even far higher than that of restoration, so the latter eight big words are also supported.

The problem derived from the first eight big words caused huge quarrels. Obviously, the new country believes that it also uses legal inheritance rights to the Eastern Great 6, but even if it is established, it will be a relatively long-term national policy to cooperate with the Ming Dynasty to defeat the enemy. After all, ethnic conflicts are the main contradictions now.

This creates a problem, that is, in the coordinated imperial captives, whoever recovered from the Qing captives belongs to. Logically speaking, those are the homelands of the Ming Dynasty, but on the other hand, whoever conquers should belong to whom. If we follow the former, the United States will lose the motivation to restore the Central Plains. The United States does not need large-scale immigration. If we cannot obtain land, then there will be no real benefit to participate in the Great Six War. After all, it is a war and cannot be maintained by emotions.

But if anyone defeated it, not to mention whether the various regimes of the Ming Dynasty accepted it or not, this principle alone would make the various regimes of the Ming Dynasty, which were not easy to unite, split up. After all, neither the Yongli, the Lu State nor the society did not have the strength to fight against the Qing army alone, and the coordinated restoration was a confusing account and could not be distinguished.

In fact, everyone was arguing about this matter from the beginning. Some people were preparing for the future, fearing that they would not get real benefits when participating in the Great Six War in the future, while some people began to settle old accounts. Now the clubs are paying money and grain to help the two regimes. They spend so much money and die so many people, but they can’t get a piece of land.

"In terms of strength, our United States still cannot independently assume the offense and defense of any war zone. Cooperating with the Ming army is both a general trend and a helpless move." Li Mingxun stopped everyone's quarrel and said.

Everyone calmed down and listened to Li Mingxun's detailed explanation. Li Mingxun said: "First, we can't make up old debts anymore. Before the Battle of Guangzhou, we participated in the war and won the people. We did not owe each other with the Ming Dynasty. As for some aid and auxiliary defense, they were only considered as the friendship between the same race. In the Battle of Guangzhou, we did help the Ming Dynasty stabilize the defense of the four western Guangdong prefectures, but also obtained nearly 60,000 people. The four western Guangdong prefectures also opened the market to the United States, which was also mutually beneficial. In the two battlefields of western Guangdong and eastern Zhejiang, the United States and Ming will not owe it, and they will not be able to settle old debts in the future."

"But everything has passed. If we participate in the war in the future, we can no longer participate in the war for free. After all, the defenders of the Ming Dynasty are the land of the Ming Dynasty. They should pay the price, and the war is to restore China. Whoever works will benefit. Therefore, at the next meeting of the Anti-Qing and Imperial Front, I will raise this matter. Obviously, no regimes in the Ming Dynasty will agree easily, but for unity, we should not force it. Therefore, according to the plan of the commander, we should open up an independent battlefield exclusively for the United States. On this battlefield, we are responsible for the victory, loss, gains and losses.

Of course, this is a strategic plan. In terms of military strength, at least this year will not work. But by coincidence, our founding ceremony is scheduled to be held at the end of the year. So I suggest that before the official founding of the country, everything will be based on the past, and after the founding of the country, how about opening up the battlefield of independence in time?" Li Mingxun looked around for a week and asked.

"agree!"

"agree!"

The elders expressed their opinions that this main contradiction was put aside and the next issue was able to be carried out.

ps: Zuo Zhuan said: The beauty of the clothes is called Hua, and the etiquette is called Xia. I also regard Huaxia as a cultural concept, but I still feel that Huaxia is too limited to the nation, so I support the term China more.
