Chapter 628: That's the power that belongs to me!

Li Xuan's words sounded like he was very concerned about Li Xuan, and he was very considerate, but after hearing Li Xuan's words, he also played with a few Xinna's concubines for half a night last night, and Wang Wenhua, who was still alive today, was instantly like ashes, and the other dozen or so important ministers also showed horror on their faces, but soon they all lowered their heads!

Not feeling well?

Is it understandable to be unaware for a while?

This is definitely not a good word, saying that he Wang Wenhua is not in good health? What are you kidding, he Wang Wenhua is not sick or sick, his body is great, from beginning to end of the year, he has not even had a cold and cough once, and he walks with the wind.

Is it understandable to be unaware for a while? Doesn't this mean that he, Wang Wenhua, is guilty of negligence?

Wang Wenhua, who was kneeling on the ground, was a little sluggish at this time, and only after half a sound did he show an expression that was more ugly than crying, and said: "Thank you Your Majesty for your size, the minister also feels that his physical strength is not enough, and it is difficult to be competent for the king's affairs!" ”

At this time, he was not kneeling, but lying on the ground, and said in a voice that was almost like crying: "The bones of the beggars!" ”

Li Xuan was expressionless, and then spit out two words: "No, the secretary is an important minister of the country, and many state affairs have to be bothered and loved!" ”

Wang Wenhua couldn't be happy when he heard this, because Li Xuan, who was sitting at the top, was still expressionless as before, this kind of expression was not a good phenomenon, so Wang Wenhua, who was only in his forties this year, could only continue: "I implore the Holy Lord to have mercy on this old bone of the minister, and allow the old minister to return to his hometown to retire!" ”

Wang Wenhua, who is in his forties, said that he was sixty or seventy years old, and even said the word old bones, which made the other ministers tremble when they heard it.

In front of His Majesty, even Wang Wenhua, who is in his forties, can only regard himself as a beggar skeleton of an old man in his sixties and seventies!

It can also be seen from this that no matter what Wang Wenhua's final fate will be, it is enough to prove that His Majesty may have a deep hatred for dealing with foreigners, especially the matter of selling the interests of the country.

Wang Wenhua is not an ordinary civil official, but one of the first three civil officials from Long, Huang Zhushan era has been one of the troika of the Tang Dynasty civil official system, although this person usually slaps in front of Li Xuan, seems to be a favored minister, but in fact, in the past few years, Wang Wenhua, like Liu Bagou and Qian Mengjiu, is no longer the ignorant Taoist priest and master of the year, but is already a cabinet boss who is almost a very human minister.

However, today, Wang Wenhua, one of the three cabinet universities in the Tang Dynasty, was forced to beg for bones because of the Hao Jing incident!

Everyone actually didn't understand this, in their opinion, Haojing was just a barren land with a sesame size, even if it was lost, there was nothing.

But they didn't know that Li Xuan didn't give Wang Wenhua face so much today, and even forced Wang Wenhua to shout out the words of beggar bones, naturally he had his intentions.

For Li Xuan, the Haojing incident is actually just a trivial matter, to put it mildly, the current Haojing is indeed a barren land, and if it is sold, it will be sold, but he has seen from it that the officials of his own Tang Dynasty have no discipline compared to the officials of the Ming Dynasty.

A few years ago, when the Portuguese wanted to occupy Hong Kong, the Ming Dynasty was still resolutely refusing, and even fought a war with the Portuguese for this, but it was good to get to their own Tang Dynasty, and the strong ships and cannons of the people had not yet come over, so they just found an excuse casually, and the officials on their side just agreed to it.

It's simply incomprehensible!

Is this soft-boned or ignorant or taking advantage of the Portuguese?

Li Xuan didn't know, he didn't care about it, but he wanted the officials of the Tang Dynasty to know that in this kind of matter, his Li Xuan's attitude was extremely firm, and he dared to privately sell the land to another country as a leased land, this is a traitor, and the people in the late Qing Dynasty lost their power and humiliated the country, and it was only after losing the war that they signed this humiliating treaty.

However, the group of officials in Guangzhou Prefecture were good, this battle had not yet been fought, and they signed a treaty to sell their territory, if he hadn't seen this excerpt, he wouldn't have known that the Portuguese had occupied Macau at the end of last year.

To put it mildly, even if he wants to betray the country, this traitorous power belongs to him Li Xuan, why did a group of local officials in Guangzhou lease Macao? Who gave them this power?

Today they dare to sell Hao Jing (Macau) privately, tomorrow they can sell Hong Kong privately, and another day they may be able to sell the entire Hainan Island!

Today, Li Xuan decided to knock and knock these officials, and they will sell the country if they have nothing to do in the future, feeling that the land is not theirs, and it is not painful to sell it, and if they sell it, they will sell it!

However, the beating of Wang Wenhua also ended here, and Wang Wenhua did not do this, he just attached a concurring opinion, and Wang Wenhua did not have the right to decide on this, it was a group of bold local officials in Guangzhou who caused this matter, especially Chen Daoquan, the general knowledge of the Guangzhou government, who was responsible for contacting the Francophone and reaching this matter.

So he still said, "No! ”

Without waiting for Wang Wenhua to continue to say anything about begging bones for the third time, he just continued: "But since Wang Aiqing is not in good health, then don't be so tired, you don't have to be on duty in the imperial study in the future!" ”

Hearing this, Wang Wenhua finally breathed a sigh of relief, although it was regrettable and heart-wrenching to lose the duty in the imperial study, but he finally kept his official hat, and even the title of university scholar could be kept.

It's just that he is a little puzzled, after losing the power of the imperial guard, is he still a university scholar?

The imperial study is on duty, this is not an official position, but a dispatch, the full name is 'the minister on duty in the imperial study', Li Xuan set up a royal study in the palace, next door to the Hanlin Academy, but this imperial study is actually not Li Xuan's office or reading place, he has his own office, this imperial study, in fact, is the place where the minister on duty in the palace is on duty.

The minister on duty in the imperial study, no fixed staff, no grade, no money, appointed by the emperor himself, to participate in military affairs, in general, is somewhat similar to the cabinet of the Ming Dynasty and the military aircraft department of the Qing Dynasty, but the power is much smaller.

At present, Li Xuan has selected a number of people from the Privy Council, the Navy Command, various cabinet ministries, the Hanlin Academy and other institutions to appoint a number of people to be appointed as the minister on duty in the imperial study, at present, the minister on duty in the imperial study on the army side is Zeng Ziwen, the navy is Bao Yifen, and the cabinet is Liu Bagou, Wang Wenhua, and Qian Mengjiu, a total of five people.

In addition to the Minister on Duty, there are also eight 'Imperial Study Ministers' with smaller powers, but they are all military generals or high-ranking officials above the rank of cabinet attendant.

However, although the imperial study has now developed from the Qing Dynasty military aircraft, it is still not obvious, so although Wang Wenhua feels a little confused, he doesn't feel anything about losing this dispatch, after all, the title of university scholar has been retained, and he is still one of the three university scholars of the Tang Dynasty, the old Tang Dynasty, and he is still in a high position.

Wang Wenhua was frightened, and then symbolically punished, but for the local officials in Guangzhou, Li Xuan didn't plan to let it go gently, Ma Dan, Lao Tzu hasn't betrayed the country yet, so you will buy it, what do you think of me as the emperor.

Even if you want to betray the country, you have to go through my permission, you dare to decide on your own, it's just impatient!

Betraying the country, what a great power it is, it belongs to me, and no one is allowed to infringe on it!

So he went on to say: "It is proposed that Chen Daoquan, the Tongzhi of Guangzhou, who colluded with the Francois and the people of the Buddha to lease the land without authorization, shall be immediately dismissed and investigated, and the rest of those who participated in this matter will also be dismissed and investigated, and whether these people have dereliction of duty in this matter, accepting bribes from barbarians, etc., if so, they will all be punished with three degrees." In addition, the Guangzhou prefect was not strict in his control, and he neglected the matter and did not report it in time, so he was demoted by three levels and transferred to other uses! ”

Li Xuan's three words are to clean up the local officials in Guangzhou, although it is said that it is a dismissal investigation, but the dismissal is only a premise, investigation is the focus, the final investigation results can only be two kinds: either dereliction of duty, or bribery!

Because in the matter of the concession of Macao, if you accept the benefits of foreigners to the concession, you are accepting bribes, and if it is confiscated, it is dereliction of duty! And no matter which of the two, nothing good will end!

In addition, Li Xuan felt that it was necessary to take this opportunity to clarify some more things, that is, he had to break the hand of local officials who interfered in foreign affairs indiscriminately.

In the past, the relevant institutions of the Tang Dynasty did not make it clear whether these foreign affairs belonged to the central government or the local government, so many local officials felt that they also had this power when dealing with foreigners.

But in reality, they don't have that power!

Therefore, he continued: "It is proposed that Your Excellency establish the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and that the Department of Domain Affairs of the Ministry of Rites will be transferred to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. ”

Foreign affairs, you can't let the local officials handle it by themselves, that is not feasible at all, who knows if the local officials below will have a fever in their brains again, and then sign some concession treaty with those foreigners, this Haojing incident is enough once, he doesn't want to come a second time!

After dealing with these things, Li Xuan said: "As for the Haojing matter, the Guangzhou government is ordered to immediately let the Franc people in the place leave, and if necessary, they can go to the trade areas of Guangzhou and Lianzhou to live, live and trade, and in addition, the coastal provinces and counties are clearly warned that except for the treaty ports that have been demarcated, other coastal ports are not allowed to trade with foreigners without permission, let alone foreign merchants are not allowed to go ashore!" ”

At this time, someone came out and said: "What if the Franc machine of Haojing is unwilling to leave?" ”

Li Xuan said without hesitation: "Fight!" ”
