Chapter 470: Saving the Emperor Guangxu's Company? Global Fraud!
In response to Kang Youwei's attempt to kill Cixi by forging an imperial edict.

The ancients had mixed opinions about it.

Some people felt that forging an imperial edict was a crime in itself, and that the failure had led to the emperor being placed under house arrest.

That is an even greater crime, adding insult to injury.

But some ancient people also thought.

The political struggle has become so intense.

It is also feasible to forge an imperial edict to cause trouble.

After all, there were many cases of false imperial edicts and false imperial decrees in ancient times!
However, no matter what one's opinion is on the forged imperial edict coup and the siege and killing of the queen.

But there is one point on which everyone agrees.

That is, the ancient people all felt that Kang Youwei was a big liar!
It is okay to forge an imperial edict.

Can you succeed?
At the very least, you have to take action before you fail!

People like Kang Youwei have no one and no soldiers, and they simply rely on others to forge imperial edicts.

It's over before it even started.

It's just pure comedy and a scam.

In addition, after Kang Youwei betrayed the emperor, he ran away immediately without notifying his brothers to run away with him.

Therefore, in the minds of ancient people, Kang Youwei's image instantly dropped three levels.

The sky continues.

[You said that after Kang Youwei fled overseas, he could either continue to insist on reform or just stay silent and live his life in seclusion.]

[As a result, after Kang Youwei arrived in Japan, he used the great reputation he had gained during the Hundred Days' Reform.]

【It started to change its identity and make money in various ways.】

[He first told the Japanese Prime Minister that he fled because he received an imperial edict from Emperor Guangxu, so he had to save his life and travel thousands of miles overseas, crying and begging for help.]

【Kang Youwei was in Japan, trying to gain Japan's support.】

[However, after Kang Youwei failed to negotiate with the Japanese government under the banner of the imperial edict, Cixi quickly sent a message to Japan, demanding that they hand over the fugitive Kang Youwei.]

【So Japan gave Kang Youwei some travel expenses and sent him out of the country.】

[From then on, Kang Youwei fled overseas again. According to statistics, he went to nearly 40 countries including the United States, Canada, Britain, and France.]

[It can be described as a super luxurious trip around the world. 】

[Some people may ask, isn’t it true that Kang Youwei was forced to go into exile in many countries overseas because of the failure of his reform? ]

[Besides being a little bit afraid of death and running away without informing other partners, which is a bit unkind. ]

[It’s not too much, right? ]

【But since Kang Youwei fled overseas, he has no longer had anything to do with reform and saving the nation.】

【On the contrary, they are making money crazily. 】

[Because he was considered the leader of the Reform Movement of 1898, and was also considered a staunch anti-Cixi and pro-Guangxu monarchist, plus he packaged his own imperial edict.]

【Therefore, Kang Youwei is very popular among overseas Chinese communities. 】

[He founded the Royalist Society, advocating the idea of ​​protecting the imperial power and reforming the country within the Qing system.]

【It attracted a large number of royalist patriots who donated money and materials to help. 】

[In order to create an image of himself as a loyal minister of the royalist faction, he used a fake photo to tell everyone how he had won the trust of Emperor Guangxu.]

[During the period when Emperor Guangxu was under house arrest, he received an imperial edict from Emperor Guangxu, so he left the country in tears to seek strength overseas.]

[In short, Kang Youwei was the Qing emperor's special commissioner for overseas fundraising to save the nation.]

【Overseas Envoy! 】

Outside the tent, Liu Bei was speechless when he saw Kang Youwei also claiming that he was holding the emperor's secret decree.

I really was entrusted by the imperial edict!

By doing this, Kang Youwei is lowering the justice of Liu Bei.

Moreover, Liu Bei finally began to have some doubts about Kang Youwei.

At the beginning, Liu Bei sincerely believed that Kang Youwei was a patriotic man of high ideals.

Even when I saw Kang Youwei escape early.

I also feel it is a helpless act.

It is understandable that in times of chaos and with lives at risk, there is neither the time nor the courage to inform others.

but now.

Liu Bei was also somewhat shaken and began to think that perhaps Kang Youwei was really just a speculator and a liar?
But Liu Bei still did not make a direct judgment. He thought he had to wait and see.

Let’s see what Kang Youwei did after he went abroad and raised funds by using the name of Emperor Guangxu.

"Kang Youwei didn't have to die."

"He may be able to help the country more if he starts a rebellion abroad with the authority of the emperor."

"That may be the case." Liu Bei added.

And Tianmu continues to reveal the unknown side of Kang Youwei.

[Overseas, Kang Youwei, who claimed to be Guangxu's special envoy, even made some big promises.]

[It is said that as long as they help Guangxu gain power, everyone involved can become an official in the future.]

[“Anyone who has made great contributions in saving the emperor can become a general or a prime minister, even if he is a commoner.”]

[Under Kang Youwei's deception, many people had simple patriotic ideas, and some wanted to follow Kang Youwei to rescue Guangxu and get the credit of following the emperor.]

【The amount of donations is increasing.】

【Kang Youwei also successively established several organizations such as the Qiangxue Society, Shengxue Society, and Baoguo Society. 】

[They even planned to establish a Qing parliament overseas. ]

[For a while, Kang Youwei became the leader of the Qing Dynasty's royalist party.]

【But please also note that at this time, Kang Youwei's label had changed from a reformist figure. 】

【He became a staunch royalist.】

[Even at this time, the revolutionary party had already been advocating the abolition of the feudal monarchy. ]

[The popular Kang Youwei made a lot of money. ]

[However, after receiving this large amount of donations, he did not use them to carry out domestic reforms, or organize forces to rescue the imprisoned Emperor Guangxu.]

[Instead, they went even further and directly set up a company to make more money.]

【Company name is:】

【The company that saved Emperor Guangxu of the Qing Dynasty. 】

[It is also known as the Royalist Protection Society.]

【Kang Youwei turned "protecting the emperor" into a business. 】

[The threshold for membership dues income is two dollars.]

[In a few years, the Royalist Party has recruited more than 100 million members around the world, and the membership fee income alone is more than 200 million US dollars. ]

【Not to mention other donations. 】

[You know, at that time, one dollar was worth 1.5 taels of silver! ]

【Not to mention other donations of money and materials. 】

[All added up, it's at least 800 million taels of silver.]

[Later on, due to the popularity of the Royalist Society and the large number of members, the threshold for membership fees was even raised to five dollars.]

【After receiving a large amount of cash, Kang Youwei transformed himself into a business tycoon. 】

[He invested in overseas companies and real estate, bought multiple buildings in various places in America, and even opened a bank.]

[I also bought a leisure holiday island in Stockholm, Sweden. ]

【It is called Kang Youwei Island. 】

【And he kept marrying concubines. 】

[A young wife married at the age of 60 is still 20 years old. ]

[Of course, Kang Youwei knew that just taking money without doing anything would not be a long-term solution.]

【When the Eight-Nation Alliance invaded China, Kang Youwei felt that his chance had finally come. 】

[Kang Youwei gave the reformist general Tang Caichang 3 US dollars and asked him to start the rebellion first.]

【And promised to provide a large amount of financial support in the future. 】

[And other overseas national salvation organizations, such as Sun Yat-sen and the Tongmenghui, also supported Tang Caichang's uprising. ]

【But at the moment of the uprising. 】

[Kang Youwei, who had already raised 60 silver dollars for the revolution, embezzled 40 silver dollars and delayed the payment of subsequent funds.]

[Tang Caichang's self-defense uprising began on August 8 and ended in failure on August 9.]

[During this period, I never received any money from Kang Youwei.]
