"You say," Xu Gengshen said, "next--how can you not talk about it in the imperial court, the local governors, who else will follow in the footsteps of Li Shaoquan, Rui Chengquan, Liu Zimo, and Ding Zhihuang?" ”

That is to say, who else will fold and cry out for Prince Xuan and ask him to stay in the center and preside over the affairs of the country?

The other three big military planes were all nervously turning their minds, and for a while, there was no one to deal with, and the atmosphere in the military aircraft department was slightly embarrassing.

After a while, Wen Xiang said: "I think Uncle Xing's words make sense!" Let's not hide our ears and steal the bell, take precautions, and when the time comes, we won't be too busy. ”

The atmosphere is lively.

"How is Wu Zhongxuan?" Guo Songtao said tentatively, "The situation between him and Rui Chengquan seems to be ...... There are some similarities. ”

Wu Zhongxuan, Wu Tang.

When Hui Zheng died of illness, the Cixi sisters helped the coffin back to Beijing, and they were entangled on the way, and there was no way to ask for help, and they were trapped on the Wei Canal in Qinghe County.

Unexpectedly, Wu Tang, the commander of Qinghe County at that time, not only sent a funeral of three hundred taels of silver, but also wore clothes and crowns to the funeral boat to pay tribute. This is a real send-off, and they have nothing to do with each other? After Wu Tang resigned, the two girls, in front of the spirit of their deceased father, swore that if he was proud, he would never forget the great kindness of Wu County's order.

After the coup d'état of Xinyou, Wu Tang's official Fu was like fire and became the governor of Sichuan all the way, all because of this special relationship with the Queen Mother. In this sense, he and Ruilin are indeed "somewhat similar", and this "few points" can be said to be "ten".

Not many people know the origin of Ruilin and the Queen Mother; But there are many people who know about the relationship between Wu Tang and the Queen Mother.

Xu Geng nodded and said, "What Gong Yun said is right, the encounters between Wu and Rui are indeed quite similar, and-"

Speaking of this, he smiled, "The reason why Wu Zhongxuan was able to seal Sichuan, the country of abundance, is actually not unrelated to Ruichengquan." ”

In that year, Ruilin, the governor of Liangguang, and Jiang Yifeng, the governor of Guangdong, attacked each other, and both folded their bullets to impeach each other. It is not permissible for the governor to be in the same city and not in harmony, no matter which is right or wrong, one must be transferred. Ruilin is not only the only remaining flag governor, but also the personal of the Queen Mother, so he can't move it, so he has to transfer Jiang Yifeng away.

So Jiang Yifeng was transferred to Gansu to fight for his old boss Zuo Zongtang. The governor of Guangdong was filled by Ding Shijie, and Wu Tang, the governor of the river who was responsible for investigating and prosecuting the Rui and Jiang cases, picked up a big bargain and served as the governor of Sichuan who was vacant at that time.

This was actually a deal made by Cixi and Guan Zhuofan: to exchange Ding Shijie's governor of Guangdong for Wu Tang's governor of Sichuan.

Anyway, the Sichuan governor that Wu Tang picked up is indeed "not unrelated" to Ruilin.

"However," Cao Yuying said in a deep voice, "Chengdu has not yet received a telegram, and Wu Zhongxuan's news and actions cannot be so fast." ”

"Also," Wen Xiang said, "Wu Zhongxuan and Rui Chengquan are similar, although they have similar encounters, their temperaments are ...... Not really. ”

It's a very insightful view, but I can't go into it in depth.

Ruilin is truly generous and generous, when he received Sister Ji Cixi, purely out of the righteousness of the same clan, and there was no intention of the city's kindness, and Wu Tang-

There has always been a rumor in the market: on the Wei Canal in Qinghe County, not far from Hui Zheng's mourning boat, there was also a mourning boat, and the spirit master was Wu Tang's old man - coincidentally, he was also a Taoist. Wu County's funeral was actually given to his old man, and at night, the family made a mistake and sent it to Hui Zheng's funeral boat.

After figuring out the situation, Wu Tang was greatly annoyed, but after calming down, he decided to make a mistake, instead of asking for the three hundred taels of silver back, he cleaned up his clothes, sounded the gong and opened the way, and went to Huizheng's funeral boat to pay tribute, and finally concluded this good fate of "unintentionally inserting willows".

Of course, this rumor would not have been known to the Queen Mother and the Sister Fujin of the King of Alcohol—no one rushed to chew this tongue in front of them.

"That-" Guo Songtao said, "I think it's Zhao Zhusheng, Liu Songyan, and Ding Jiqiu." ”

Wen, Cao, and Xu all sank slightly.

Several big military planes know that Zhao Jingxian, Liu Xunjiao, and Ding Shijie will jump out sooner or later; also understands that the reason why they haven't received their excerpts yet, these three are just waiting for the word "fire" - as the descendants of Prince Xuan, it is not good for them to come out too early, and there must be some "foreshadowing" ahead.

Now, Li Hongzhang, Ruilin, Liu Changyou, and Ding Baozhen are all on the fold, and this "foreshadowing" is enough.

"If Zhao Zhusheng, Liu Songyan, and Ding Jiqiu are also on the fold," Cao Yuying said, "then, let's break our fingers -- Huguang, Liangguang, Yunnan-Guizhou, Liangjiang, plus Shandong in Zhili-"

After a pause, he smiled slightly wryly, "Most of China is boiling!" ”

paused again, "Moreover, Shaanxi and Gansu have not been counted!" ”

The governor of Shaanxi and Gansu is Zuo Zongtang, and he is currently in Urumqi.

Even Li Shaoquan jumped out, Zuo Jigao still needs to say? - He is stirring spoons in the same pot with Xuan Jun!

"This matter," Xu Geng laughed self-deprecatingly, "Li Shaoquan is considered to be the 'first initiative', I estimate that Zuo Jigao will know about it by then, maybe...... It's going to be hateful! ”

Xu Geng's tone, although there are one or two points of joke, but Wen, Cao, and Guo all think it is true: Zuo Zongtang's most inaccurate person is Li Hongzhang; In this matter, not only was the limelight of "the first initiative" stolen by Li Hongzhang, but Zuo Zongtang also became the last person to receive the news among the governors of the world because of the road blockage.

With Zuo Zongtang's temper, it is indeed possible to "lead to hate".

Guo Songtao said in a sullen voice: "It's not good, let's go to the Jietai Temple for this period of Chenguang, and the excerpts of Zhao, Liu, and Ding will arrive." ”

It's hard to say whether Zhao Jingxian, Liu Xunjiao, and Ding Shijie's movements can be so fast, but no matter how late they are, their excerpts will definitely arrive tomorrow and the day after tomorrow.

The other three looked at each other, all smiling bitterly.

"So," Wen Xiang said solemnly, "no matter what, we have to take the Xuan Mansion today...... Well, take the words of the Queen Mother and the Queen Mother - the 'rack' is also 'racked' back! He can't be asked to spend the night at Jietai Temple! ”

"Yes!"

"Yes!"

Cao, Xu, and Guo said in unison.

After a pause, Xu Gengshen said, "There is another one-Zeng Disheng, I don't know if there will be any action?" If so, how? ”

This is the most important "local governor".

Cao Yuying looked at Guo Songtao: "Yun Gong, your old friend, what do you think?" ”

Guo Songtao thought for a while, shook his head slightly, and said, "I can't say it well. Zeng Disheng is 'ten thousand words are better than one silence', this kind of thing, he can not open his mouth without speaking. But—"

After hesitating for a moment, he still shook his head: "I can't say it well." ”

Since you "can't say it", I can't say it.

"Actually," Cao Yuying sighed, "The local governor is not the most troublesome, what I'm most worried about is—"

After a pause, "It's Tianjin." ”

Where in Tianjin?

Wen, Xu, and Guo all looked at Wen Xiang.

Seeing the expressions of the three colleagues, Cao Yuying knew that they had misunderstood: "No, I don't mean the Queen Mother, uh...... The matter of the Xuan Mansion 'asking to return to the domain', the Queen Mother...... I don't know. ”

That's natural, the Queen Mother doesn't even know that the Daxing Emperor Dragon Pilot.

"I said," Cao Yuying hesitated, "yes...... Hua Yuancheng, Zhang Keshan. ”

Wall, Daniel Zhang.

Wen, Xu, and Guo were all shocked.

"This matter," Cao Yuying continued, "As Hua Yuancheng and Zhang Keshan, I won't open my mouth unless I have to, but if I ......"

What if it really comes to the "last resort", or, not the "last resort", Hua Er, Daniel Zhang, like Li Hongzhang, Liu Changyou, etc., fold up to Prince Xuan and complain about grievances?

That would be equivalent to the army openly expressing dissatisfaction with the imperial court.

If so, its seriousness far exceeds that of "most of China, like a boiling".

There was silence in the military aircraft department.

Wen Xiang broke the silence: "It's almost time to eat, let's go-hurry up, we have to rush back before the city gate closes!" ”
