English: In June 1898, the Qing court leased the New Territories to the north of Boundary Street to Britain for 99 years. As the representative of the Qing, his signature was then sealed in the historical archives of Hong Kong. He subsequently visited Hong Kong twice in 1900. In 15 January (this photo), Li travelled to Guangzhou by boat via Hong Kong to take office as the Viceroy of Guangdong and Guangxi. He met with Hong Kong governor Henry Arthur Blake to discuss the governance of the Kowloon Walled City. In July of the same year, Li was summoned to Beijing to negotiate the Boxer Protocol following the mess of Boxer Rebellion. He passed by Hong Kong while travelling from Guangzhou, and met with Governor Blake once again. To ensure the deal of Mutual Protection of Southeast China to be a success, Blake tried to convince Li to stay in Guangzhou, to no avail. In November 1901, Li passed away. The two trips he made to British Hong Kong turned out to be his last foreign visits.[3]
