Chapter 654 Hongyi Makes Qing
The news that the champion of the Qing Dynasty was so angry that he vomited blood was known to the military and civilians of the entire Guangjing because of a poster, which greatly boosted the morale of the military and the people.
Guangjing culture was at its peak, and it didn't take long for Xia Wanchun's deeds to be changed into a drama by the literati, and the storytelling was circulated, so Lu Gong couldn't afford to be ill, so he didn't mention it for the time being.
However, it is said that Feng Cheng took great pains to attract the attention of the Ming Dynasty, and after he proposed to Qian Bingrup that the Qing Dynasty would "divide the river and rule" with the Ming Dynasty, the news was conveyed layer by layer, and finally caused a shock from the government and the opposition.
Although some ministers think that Jianyi cannot be trusted, in the face of the temptation to win Jiangnan without a fight, this temptation still makes many people tempted.
As soon as Feng Quan's mouth cannon was released, he successfully stirred the Ming court, and the person in charge of the negotiation also changed from Qian Bingji, the main guest of the fifth grade, to He Wuyu, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites and Rites of the University, and the specifications were increased by a few levels.
For a while, Feng Cheng became busy, but Lu Gong, the champion of the Qing Dynasty, couldn't afford to be sick, most of the whole person was emaciated, his cheeks were sunken, and his eye sockets were sunken, as if he had been ravaged by someone.
During the negotiations in Guangjing, Jiangning City also came with a wave of special envoys.
With the passage of time, it has reached the end of the fourth year of Shunzhi, and the New Year will be celebrated in more than a month.
For Hong Chengchou, the governor of Jiangnan in the Qing court, the four years of Shunzhi were extremely unpleasant.
Failure on the road, failure on the river, and more recently at sea.
The Zhejiang Navy Division attacked Zhoushan and encountered Zheng's warship heading north, but the sneak attack failed and was blasted.
As a result, his plan to break the blockade of the Yangtze River from the side fell through, and now the Ming warships on the river are still there, and with the addition of Zheng's warships in Fujian, the blockade of the Ming army and the Yangtze River has also become a long-term strategy.
This made Hong Chengchou have to take the risk of quietly transporting supplies across the river from elsewhere, the Yangtze River was thousands of miles, and the Ming warships could only control a few key points, his strategy really worked, and he transported rice and grain to Jiangbei several times in a row, and transported the salt and iron from Jiangbei to Jiangnan.
Although it is said that because the Grand Canal cannot be taken, the goods have to travel a long way by land, which increases the cost of transportation, but as long as it can be transported, it is already a good thing.
It's just a pity that this kind of transportation in the back, after the internal strife of the six kings in the Qing court in October, the hearts of the Manchu people began to turmoil, and the transportation became no longer safe.
Hong Chengchou was sitting in Jiangnan, and at this time, he already felt that under the calm situation on the surface, the undercurrent was constantly surging, and he felt a storm and turmoil.
At the end of the day, the eastern sky was white, the sky was numb and bright, and Hong Chengchou had already gotten up and came to the study.
If it was usual, he would have to stay in the study for an hour, after breakfast, and then go to the yamen office, but today there was an accident, he just sat down, and a scribe came to report, "Governor Qiqi, the general manager who guarded the Taiping Gate just now sent someone to come, saying that a group of Hongyi came, holding the road quotation approval of the governor of Zhejiang's yamen, and a letter of recommendation to meet the governor, I don't know if the governor will see it?" ”
"Furry?" Hong Chengchou raised his eyebrows when he heard this, "Did you bring the letter?" ”
The scribe presented it with both hands, Hong Chengchou took it, unfolded the letter paper and looked at it, he only looked at a few lines, and then ordered: "Let them enter the city!" ”
Taiping Gate is a city gate in the east of Jiangning City, in the morning the city rings a melodious bell, "Dong Dong Dong" reminds the hawkers waiting outside the city, about to open the city.
Jiangning is a big city, the population in the city is large, the daily consumption is very large, all rely on the supply outside the city, more than 100 vegetable farmers carry vegetable burdens, drive donkey carts, scramble to line up at the gate of the city.
Unlike usual, on the side of the team, there was a group of red-haired people in strange costumes, all of whom looked like devils and had a smell of commotion on their bodies, which were the Dutchmen on the horizon and the ocean.
The Dutch at this time had just defeated Spain with England and gained supremacy over the seas, but no matter how powerful he was in the Western world, he had no say in the East.
The Ming Dynasty in the south relied on the manpower and material resources of the great powers in the South China Sea to rise rapidly, so that the Dutch in the South China Sea interests, lost most of the interests, and the Ming Dynasty revealed the intention to recover Taiwan and drive them out of the East China Sea and the South China Sea, which made the Dutch feel uneasy.
Seeing the rise of the Ming Dynasty on the sea, challenging the rights and interests of the Dutch at sea, the Dutch naturally set their sights on the Tatar court in the north.
Due to the inability to obtain goods from China, the Dutch interests in Batavia were greatly reduced, and the ninth Dutch governor of Taiwan, Owald, and the governor of Batavia, John Masui, decided to send an envoy to the Tatar court through letters, intending to cooperate between the two sides, one is to trade and do business, and the other is to deal with the Ming Dynasty.
The head of the Dutch mission, a minor leader of the East India Company, had high expectations for the mission, but the results were unsatisfactory.
At first, the Manchus were very interested in the Dutch mission, and they welcomed it very much, after all, if the two countries stand side by side today, it will be beneficial for the Manchus to strive for legal status.
At the beginning, he was very happy, but soon found out that he basically played the piano to the cow, and the Qing Dynasty did not know where the Netherlands was, and the Qing Dynasty completely expressed its tenderness for the "distant people" in the tone of "the lord of all nations", and regarded the Netherlands as a "vassal" subject country.
As for trade, the Qing Dynasty had everything, and there was no need for trade.
Jointly deal with the Ming Dynasty, who are you? Plug it in?
As a result, the two goals of the Dutch were not achieved, and they were generously rewarded with something before leaving the Qing court, but they also told the Dutch, don't come every year, it's best to come once every eight years, and no more than 100 people each time, after all, the Qing Dynasty is not rich.
Originally, this mission was over, and the Dutch were preparing to return to Dayuan the same way, but when they passed through the sea off Zhejiang, they encountered a storm, and the Dutch could only take shelter from the shore.
The Qing soldiers in Zhejiang, thinking that it was a big ship of the Ming Dynasty, sent troops to surround the Dutch who were docking, and this incident soon alarmed the high-ranking officials in Zhejiang.
It happened that the Manchu governor of Zhejiang failed to attack Zhoushan and lost a lot of warships.
However, after all, he was a Han member, and his thinking was not as ignorant and arrogant as the Manchurian nobles in Beijing, so he chatted with Kui Yi for a few words, and decided to introduce this group of Dutch to Hong Chengchou, so he instructed Kui Yi to try his luck in Nanjing.
At this time, the city gate creaked and opened on time, and the traders and vegetable farmers entered the city one by one, only the party did not move, and they had sent the letter recommended by the governor of Zhejiang, but there was no movement for half a day, and they were in a hurry.
