On this day, 120 years ago, September 17, 1905 (August 19, 1905 in the lunar calendar), Cixi sent five ministers abroad for inspection. On September 17, 1905, Cixi sent five ministers abroad for inspection. In order to save the crisis, the Qing government had to accept the slogan of the bourgeois reformists for constitutionalism, put up the sign of preparing constitutionalism, and sent five ministers, including Zaize, Dai Hongci, Xu Shichang, Duanfang, and Shaoying, to various countries in the East and West to inspect politics. The Wu Yue bomb murder case was delayed for several months. Xu Shichang was appointed to a new position. He was injured in the murder of Shaoying, and was replaced by Shang Qiheng and Li Shengduo. The Qing Constitutional Movement was the third large-scale reform promoted by the Qing government of China after the Self-Strengthening Movement (Westernization Movement, 1861 - 1895) and the Reform Movement (1895 - 1898). The purpose was to make the Qing Empire a constitutional monarchy. The royal cabinet took a group photo. The members of the Politburo were all handsome and there was no one who looked like a rat. The Qing government implemented the "New Deal after the Boxing Rebellion and the interference of the foreign powers, and sent ministers overseas to inspect the implementation of constitutional government by the foreign powers. Based on the opinions of five ministers including Zaize and Duanfang, the Empress Dowager Cixi issued an edict in the thirty-third year of Guangxu (1906) to prepare for a constitution. In 1907, the Qing government established the Political Council at the central government and the Advisory Boards in various provinces. Zhang Jian, Tang Shouqian and others established the Preliminary Constitutional Conference in Shanghai, and later constitutional conferences were established in various places. Political groups advocating constitutionalism in various parts of the Qing Dynasty (especially in Huguang and Liangjiang areas) successively issued declarations advocating the implementation of a constitutional monarchy. At the same time, they launched a parliamentary petition movement, raising demands such as speeding up the founding of the People's Republic of China, promulgating the Constitution, and shortening the period for preparatory constitutionalism. In 1908, the Qing government promulgated the "Outline of the Imperial Constitution", stipulating that the Qing Empire would last forever, and at the same time announced that "constitutionalism would be implemented nine years later." In September 1909 (the first year of Xuantong), various governors and governors reported to hold elections for provincial advisory boards. On the first day of September in 1910 (the second year of Xuantong), the Council held its first opening ceremony. Before and after the opening of the Senate, the parliamentary petition movement also reached its peak. Thousands of people rallied in Zhili, Shanxi, Henan, Sichuan, Fujian and other provinces to ask the governors to submit petitions on their behalf. Hubei rallied to propose "no Congress will be held and no new donations will be recognized." In Beijing, the parliamentary petition delegation repeatedly petitioned the Senior Minister Council and the Prince Regent. In addition to petitioning on behalf of the Minister, the Senior Minister Council also approved a special document for the founding of the People's Republic of China. Under the pressure of the massive petition movement, eighteen governors, generals, and prefectures, led by Xiliang, governor of the three northeastern provinces, jointly petitioned to immediately form a cabinet and open a parliament the following year. Shocked, the Qing court announced on November 14 that it would shorten the preliminary constitutional period to five years and establish a responsible cabinet before the opening of parliament. On May 8, 1911 (April 10, the third year of Xuantong), the Qing government abolished the Military Affairs Department, promulgated the cabinet official system and appointed the prime minister and ministers. More than half of the members are from the Qing imperial family (royal family) and Manchu, and are ridiculed as the "royal cabinet." The constitutionalists and public opinion were disappointed and even dissatisfied with this. They believed that the Qing government was not sincere in implementing constitutional government, but gradually sympathized with and leaned towards the revolutionary cause. The Qing government collapsed that year (1912), and the Republic of China was born. News raw data sources → https://www.abtool.cn/today_detail/13i2.html 17WorldNews[2025.09.27-12:57] 访问:80
