Chapter 405: Kyushu is angry and thunderous

[Thank you 'wq007_00...' 500 coins for the reward, thank you]

"The criminal minister Pang Zhenkun of Dengzhou, Henan, thank His Highness for not killing him. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info”

In a confiscated mansion of a wealthy merchant outside Changsha, Chen Guangqian, who had just taken the initiative to remove the position of governor of Hunan, told Chen Ming his true identity. He is a very famous generation of geeks in Henan - Pang Zhenkun.

Chen Ming was not surprised, he sent someone to trace Chen Guangqian's roots, there were no clues, and the 'experience' he said could not be verified at all, and the whole person seemed to jump out of a stone.

However, Chen Guangqian's identity can be faked and covered up, but his talent and learning cannot be faked. As a native of Henan, Chen Guangqian said that he has been living in Guangxi in recent years, and Pang Zhenkun, who was noticed by Chen Ming in his early years, is not the two governors of Wuxuan County, Xunzhou Prefecture, Guangxi Province and Cenxi County, Wuzhou Prefecture? Pang Zhenkun, a small county commander, deserves a three-point reputation in Dengzhou, and he is said to be a good official who cares for the people.

Chen Guangqian's accent has a bit of Nanyang flavor, but he is very good at being an official, and he also understands some officialdom rules very well, and he is comfortable in the Changsha prefect. Where could this be a small trader?

Chen Ming naturally connected him with Pang Zhenkun. Comprehensively summing up, Chen Ming feels that 'Chen Guangqian is Pang Zhenkun' is very likely.

"Back to His Royal Highness, the criminal minister thinks that between the two governors of the county, he is diligent in government, promotes learning and loves the people, and has merit but no fault. Even if the Qing court exempted the guilty ministers from their official positions, the guilty ministers could return to their hometowns. The tongue cultivates the food, teaches according to the aptitude, teaches people tirelessly, and is also the great wish of the minister. "That's what Pang Zhenkun really thought at the beginning." However, the Tartars were despicable and shameless, and they sold their officials and lords, because Cenxi County gave 8,000 taels of silver, that is, they were dismissed from their posts for their mediocrity and incompetence, and they quickly replaced the post of criminal ministers and magistrates in Cenxi County. "It's an absolute insult.

Pang Zhenkun thought of the humiliation he received before leaving, by the county Cheng, as well as some local gentry, Pang Zhenkun 'studied and loved the people' in Cenxi County, but he offended many local gentry. Don't forget the Tong Zi Test, the latter right is in the hands of the magistrate.

He walked out of Guangxi empty, with only a roll of clothes and a box of books, and later that box of books was also thrown into the river. At that time, the sinner swore to the river that he would make his generation pay back the shame. This revenge is not avenged, not for men! ”

So Pang Zhenkun sent his wife, son and daughter to his best friend Wu Xueli, who is now working in Sichuan.

Pang Zhenkun himself defected at the beginning of the Fu Han army's southward march to Hunan. Because he knew that the only person he could rely on to avenge himself was Chen Han.

"The guilty minister is grateful to be forgiven by His Highness, and he will not be repaid for his death." Pang Zhenkun pushed away the Hunan governor in his hands, and exposed his crime of impersonating his name in front of Chen Ming, and the official position waiting for him on the road ahead will be the Guangxi Inspector Yushi.

For Pang Zhenkun, who is bent on returning to Guangxi to 'take revenge', the position of supervising the imperial history of Guangxi may be more attractive to him than the governor of Hunan. Although the grade of Guangxi's supervision of the imperial history is exactly the same as that of the prefect.

With the establishment of provincial officials, the power and importance of supervising the imperial history are greatly reduced. Pang Zhenkun paid a lot of price for his pseudonym, and some times in this officialdom, if one step is wrong, then step by step is backward. But Chen Ming looked at Pang Zhenkun's slightly chubby face, but felt that he couldn't suppress the excitement and roar in his heart now.

"Let's go down. Prepare for the handover. "Anyway, Guangdong's Chen Erbao and Chen Yongsheng will not wait until next year to attack Guangxi, and it is estimated that as soon as Chen Ming arrives in Lushan, Pang Zhenkun's new appointment will come down.

When Chen Ming sailed along the Xiangjiang River to Changsha, the time had already reached mid-November, and in addition to the original people, there were more generals from the garrisons of Xiangnan and Hengyang.

In Hengyang, Chen Ming held a small-scale civil and military symposium, and in only seven or eight months, the turbulent waves set off in Hunan washed away a lot of gravel. During the six months when Hunan was besieged and beaten by the Qing army, not only did the soldiers suffer many casualties, but also the county officials in various places also died. The most serious Baoqing Prefecture, Wugang, has changed four magistrates before and after.

At the beginning, Chen Ming let Cheng Hao, Xu Yongmin, Lin Anhong and others recruit people to appoint local officials in Hunan, but in less than a year, sixty or seventy percent of those first magistrates had already died. There are many people here who died at the hands of the Qing army, but there are also those who were cut off by the Han army because they abandoned the city and fled without a fight, plus some incompetent and mediocre people who were dismissed, and there are still officials who can still sit on the chair of the magistrate.

At present, the number of Hunan local magistrates, Hunan nationality has dropped from more than 90 percent at the beginning, to half of today's total.

"The minister thinks that "Shiguwen" and "Yuelu Mountain" don't need to be ignored by this newspaper. Just keep an eye on the source of their funding and make a note of the list of funders. Liu Jijiang said to Chen Ming.

In the entire Hunan officialdom, except for Pang Zhenkun, who is known as Chen Guangqian, the most capable person to compete for the governor of Hunan is undoubtedly Liu Jijiang. Now that Chen Guangqian is automatically out, Chen Ming has to take a closer look at Liu Jijiang's quality. Unless it is a last resort, Chen Ming and Chen Hui are unwilling to transfer another foreign official to Hunan.

As the supervising imperial history of Hunan, it is also the supervising imperial history, but Liu Jijiang's rights are actually far less than Shen Guozhen's. During his tenure, he also focused on the work of public opinion newspapers. After the summer harvest, Liu Jijiang also organized the province's rural work team, and kept his eyes on the three newspapers published by the three famous academies in central Hunan Province.

"Under the prison of Tatar writing, no one dares to make a big statement in the newspapers. With a little insinuation, His Royal Highness has endured his life, and the ministers have never found their faults. "Liu Jijiang doesn't believe that those 'awe-inspiring' people dare to really shout anti-Chen Han slogans. They absolutely knew that their heads were not as hard as the knives of the Fu Han Army.

"The minister thinks that the desire to level the three reports is not because of high pressure and toughness, but because of the sympathy of the people, but in cutting off their funds." Finding trouble with the financiers behind them is the real winning strategy!

"He praised himself as 'true Confucianism and righteousness', sneering at advertisements and money, one newspaper for two pennies, and the official newspaper set the price, and the more sales, the more money he lost."

Therefore, Liu Jijiang, together with Shen Zichun, the head of the Changsha Garrison Regiment, and Chen Chengzhi, the chief of the police station, secretly sent a large number of people to rush to buy three newspapers, two pennies for one newspaper, and one silver dollar can buy three or four hundred newspapers, and look at how much it costs to print those three or four hundred newspapers?

Liu Jijiang's actions greatly increased the sales of three newspapers, including Shiguwen, several times in a short period of time.

The academy behind the three newspapers only thought that the people had finally 'woken up', knew what 'the righteousness of the world and the justice of the world' were, and were willing to read their newspapers, and knew that the final fate of these newspapers that had suddenly skyrocketed in sales had been 'restored' to a white paste.

In this way, in less than a month, the Seongnam Academy, which has the thinnest family resources, could not support it in the first place.

After two months of 'madness' of selling 50,000 copies a day, the number of newspapers sold a day is now firmly fixed at 5,000 copies.

There is a marked difference between the official newspapers such as "Hunan Daily" and "Changsha Daily," which are backed by the Chen Han government, and have sufficient funds and various sales channels, with the former selling more than 20,000 copies a day -- all inside and outside the province, and the latter being local representative newspapers and periodicals, and the sales volume has steadily reached 10,000.

Why can Liu Jijiang become a candidate for governor of Hunan? Although the position is a little behind Pang Zhenkun, don't forget that Pang Zhenkun proposed the "Disclosure of Officials' Property Declaration", which instantly launched his reputation in the whole world, and Liu Jijiang's most significant achievement is to suppress the stubborn old-fashioned faction of Hunan Shilin in public opinion.

When Liu Wu reported this matter to Chen Ming, he also lamented the ruthlessness and ruthlessness among the literati. Liu Jijiang has been teaching at Chengnan Academy for several years.

"Mr. Daxiang has been teaching and educating people in Chengnan Academy for many years, why don't you talk about the past and start with Chengnan Academy first?"

Liu Jijiang's method of dealing with the old-school newspapers is to beat them to the roots. Keep an eye on which one sent the money to the academy, and then call each department to strictly and thoroughly investigate all aspects of which one. These big families who were rich and noble in the Manchu Qing Dynasty want to find out some bad debts, isn't it easy?

Chen Ming generally agrees with this method. Although it is a bit despicable, since those families are funding Yuelu Mountain and Shiguwen, they are not the same as Chen Han in terms of positioning. You need to have a little guilt when you get it!

When Xiong Bingzhang came to the end of Liu Jijiang's recital, he stabbed a knife at Liu Jijiang. This knife was handed to him by Chen Ming, and he had to stab this knife. As for whether Xiong Bingzhang and Liu Jijiang will still be able to play happily in the future, and whether they can explain it clearly in the future, Xiong Bingzhang doesn't know, Chen Ming doesn't care.

Liu Jijiang's heartstrings that had just relaxed suddenly came up, Xiong Bingzhang was saying that he was 'ruthless' and that he had a cold temperament. This is absolutely unrecognizable! Who wants the person under their command to be a cold-tempered person, can that kind of person still be a loyal person? Who wants their boss above their head to be a person with a cold temperament, what good can they do if they work under that kind of person?

If Liu Jijiang can't find decent words to refute back and forth, and puts the hat of 'cold temperament' on his head, there will be many more unnecessary changes and troubles in the officialdom in the future, not to mention that it is difficult to move an inch.

Xiong Bingzhang's stab was really his key point.

"Your Highness, I think Lord Xiong's words are wrong. The minister first kicked Nancheng Academy out, not because of coldness, but to better protect Chengnan Academy. ”

"I am like the rising sun in the east, and the future is bright and ambitious. The current road of Chengnan Academy is contrary to our dynasty, if it is not for the magnanimity of the King of Han and the Duke of Lu, and does not scold people with words, the south of the city will be complete. The minister was born in the south of the city, can An bear to sit back and watch it go farther and farther? ”

"Its newspapers are the source of its trouble."

"Cut off its roots, and then follow the guidance, over time, can the Chengnan Academy be reborn."

Chen Ming looked at Liu Jijiang, who was comfortable with the response and instantly came up with appropriate words to refute it, but he really agreed in his heart. He learned this trick from Qianlong, and Qianlong used this trick on Qin Dacheng at the beginning.

Qin Dacheng won the top prize, stayed on duty in the Hanlin Academy, a palace feast, after three rounds of wine, and five flavors of food, Emperor Qianlong asked the little eunuch to take out two bundles of things, and said to Qin Dacheng: "Jiading, where you live, is famous for bamboo carvings and bamboo utensils. What do you Jiading people call these two things? Qin Dacheng fixed his eyes and saw that a bundle was a thin skin of bamboo, which was called Qingqing in Jiading; The other bundle is a thin piece of bamboo with the skin removed, which is called Huanghuang in Jiading. So I thought: These things, in Jiading, three-year-old children also know the goods, how can I be asked about this champion?

However, as soon as he thought lightly in his mouth, he was shocked into a cold sweat: "Isn't "Qingqing" exactly the same as "Extinguishing Qing"? Isn't "Huanghuang" exactly the same as "Destroying the Emperor"? The stakes are high! If you don't get it right, it will really lead to imprisonment and death!

So, he held his breath and replied softly: "Qi Song Sheng, these two things have local names in my Jiading. One is bamboo skin, and the other is bamboo meat. ”

When Emperor Qianlong heard this, he laughed heartily, felt that Qin Dacheng's personality was very cautious, and nodded in recognition of this new champion.

Although Qin Dacheng skillfully answered the emperor's question, the more he thought about it afterwards, the more he felt afraid, he was really like a tiger. After thinking about it again and again, I made up my mind not to be an official anymore. Therefore, Qin Dacheng resigned early and returned to his hometown to serve his old mother.

This matter is not a secret in Qin Dacheng's hometown.

Chen Ming now looks at Liu Jijiang's reaction, just like Qianlong at the beginning, and agrees with Liu Jijiang's qualifications to be the governor of Hunan. Although this is so 'rash'!

Who made Chen Han only have such a person in the entrainment right now? Chen Ming's poem sounded in his head:

Kyushu is angry and thunderous, and all the horses are sad;

I advise the heavenly prince to be vigorous and reduce talents without sticking to one pattern.

The current Fu Han army really needs talents, great talents. In the past, the prefect and county magistrates did not feel that the people in their hands were not qualified enough and lacked ability, but now they are appointing the governor of a province, and they are all kinds of adjutant officials at the provincial level, so they immediately feel uneasy.

……

3,000 miles of splendid North Korea -- hehe.

Crossing the Yalu River, Hailancha had 20,000 brave soldiers, and in just 10 days since it stepped into the borders of Korea, it swept through Uiju, Jeongju, Anju, and Sunju, which were coastal areas along the South Road of North Korea, and the front of the troops was directed at Pyongyang.

The envoys sent by the Qing Dynasty to Korea to inquire about the guilt were still floating in the Bohai Bay on the fleet that departed from the port of Tianjin.

The first town of the Eight Banners New Army, the first battalion of the first association, the first standard.

Seventeen-year-old Fukangan raised the saber in his hand and said, "Raise the gun." ”

With a battalion of troops, facing the three or two thousand Korean soldiers who counterattacked the army, Fukangan did not have the slightest fear. Even the first battalion of the Eight Banners New Army beside him was also calm. It seems that it was not three or two thousand Korean soldiers who were culled on the other side, but three or two thousand humble and insignificant ants.

"Aim." Fukangan's voice is full of endless passion. This is the love of the Qing Dynasty.

Although the women of the Fucha family only left a daughter in Qianlong's harem, the Fucha clan was favored by the Qianlong Emperor, especially Fu Heng and his family, which was completely immense. At the age of thirteen, he walked in Qianqingmen, and Fukangan, who was appointed as a third-class shrimp, was full of loyalty to the Qing Dynasty and full of hot passion.

This Qing Dynasty's expedition to Korea, no matter how high-sounding the excuse is and what the actual intention is, Fukang knows it with peace of mind. But it is precisely because of his knowing that Fukang's head is more surging with the passion of repaying the emperor's grace.

What teenager doesn't have a Huo Qu disease in his heart? Which military minister does not have the grand wish of 'turning the tide and supporting the building to fall'?

Fukangan is a thirteen-year-old third-class guard, a fourteen-year-old second-class guard, and a fifteen-year-old first-class guard. Awesome, right?

The eyes of the battalion converged on Fukangan's body, staring at his waist knife raised high in one hand. Fukangan was not nervous at all, and watched little by little as the Korean soldiers approached from seventy or eighty zhang away to twenty or thirty zhang.

"Huh." When the musketeers of the Korean soldiers were also approaching a distance of twenty zhang, the waist knife in Fukangan's hand quickly chopped down.

"Beep-" A sharp whistle sounded.

With the slashing of Fukangan's knife light. The firing of 500 muskets shook the heavens and the earth. (To be continued.) )
