The list of envoys selected by the imperial court was very fast, and it only took a few days to inform Hong Bin that the envoys were ready; The imperial envoys wanted to travel immediately, so that they could stay in the territory of the East China Sea for a month and have enough time to inspect and visit; But the East China Sea Country didn't think so, the end of September and the beginning of October was the busiest time for the autumn harvest, and no one wanted to receive the imperial envoys in advance, so in the end, Fu Ning made the decision; The imperial court envoys disembarked at Ningyuan Port on October 15 of the Gregorian calendar, that is, on August 23 of the lunar calendar, and then went to Shenyang Hall and Harbin Hall to visit the industrial and agricultural production of Kwantung Prefecture, and then watched the joint military exercise of the 4th Field Division and the 6th Cavalry Division in the Guanning Hall on October 28 of the Gregorian calendar, and watched the joint landing and military exercise of the 2nd Fleet of the Navy, the 19th Marine Division and the 1st Field Division on the beach of Wuningyuan District on October 30; On the morning of November 1, the morning military parade and afternoon national ceremony were held at the Jinzhou Government Affairs Square in the Lushun Hall, and on November 2 and 3, he attended the state banquet of national honor of the East China Sea held in Jinzhou.

The itinerary of the envoys reported by Hong Bin to the imperial court was quickly delivered to Emperor Shunhe's desk, and the important ministers of the imperial court looked at each other; I feel incredible about the arrangement of the East China Sea, in just one or twenty days, I have traveled thousands of miles back and forth, and the horse does not leave the saddle in the wind and dust. What kind of etiquette are you seeing?!

The imperial court didn't know that the railway steamers in the East China Sea were hundreds of miles away day and night, and they thought that they needed to ride horses and saddles to travel around the country, so many people retreated, but the list of envoys had been decided, and it was too late to regret it!

There was not much mutual trust between the imperial court and the East China Sea Kingdom, so Fu Ning guessed that there were about four kinds of envoys in the imperial court; The first is the nobles of the court who have no real power but are enlightened, the second is the low-level enlightened officials that the court is prepared to use, the third is the full-time logistics personnel who are assigned to visit, and the fourth is the important ministers of the court who may be anonymously mixed in the list of envoys! The list of envoys who received the report from the imperial court turned out to be in line with Fu Ning's speculation.

There were three court nobles in the imperial envoy group, and the king of Beijing County, who had been reinstated, took the initiative to ask to join the envoy group; The new chief of the Imperial Court Tiren Academy, Wang Ziteng, and Fu Junyuan, a scholar of Huirenge University.

The fourth generation of loyal monarchs of the Wang Shui family of Beijing County has almost become the king of iron hats, so it is not surprising that he was reinstated as the prince of the county, but it was indeed a bit unexpected that he took the initiative to ask to join the envoy group; Emperor Shunhe couldn't find a few important ministers who really understood the East China Sea Kingdom, and Shui Rong had fought with the East China Sea Kingdom after all, so it was not too bizarre to let the enlightened Shui Rong participate in the envoy group.

Fu Ning remembered that in the novel, Wang Ziteng had already lost his position when he was transferred to the strange position of "President of Jinling Provincial Tiren Academy", and then he was "dyed of an explosion" by the imperial court! ”； But now Wang Ziteng's position as the "President of the Tiren Academy" is one level higher than the "President of the Jinling Provincial Tiren Academy", and this position is a hot position of honorable and important ministers like the Huiren Pavilion college students, which shows that Wang Ziteng still has not lost power, so it is a little strange for him to enter the list of envoys! "Could it be that the imperial court wants to play the 'blood and affection card'?" , Fu Ning has no shortage of malicious conjectures, but after all, he has no clue.

The internal structure of the imperial court has always been very strange, and almost every new emperor will set up some new powerful departments after ascending the throne; During the period of Emperor Jin Xiang, the cabinet was the most powerful department, and during the period of Emperor Xianghe, two new departments of real power were added, the Military Aircraft Department and the Shangshutai, so the cabinet became a noble department for honorary pensions; Later, during the period of Emperor Taifeng, Huiren Pavilion was added, so the heavy power department became Shangshutai and Huiren Pavilion, and the Military Aircraft Department became the same honorary place as the cabinet; During the Qianping period, the Zongren Mansion and the Military Aircraft Department were weighted, and the Huiren Pavilion and Shangshutai became a place for the nobles to retire again; Therefore, after almost every new emperor ascends the throne, he will set aside the old ministers and reuse the new ministers and add important institutions. Now Emperor Shunhe has added the Tiren Academy, and at the same time, the cabinet and the military aircraft are in one place, and the military aircraft department of the cabinet is also a powerful department; As for Huiren Pavilion, although it is still a scattered place, Fu Junyuan, a scholar of Huiren Pavilion University, is an important minister with real power. Emperor Shunhe's ruling strategy has a strong meaning of powering the ministers rather than the institutions, so Wang Ziteng is still the real power of the imperial court at the moment, and the head of the Tiren Academy and the scholar of the Tiren Academy cannot be said to be unweighted, so Wang Ziteng is very strange to Fu Ning in the list of envoys.

The list of imperial envoys also included Xiao Shi, Wei Kan, Li Lingyu, Zhao Fengqing, Jin Botao and other low-level officials of the imperial court, and the information sent by Yanshantang showed that these people were all low-level officials of the imperial court who were inclined to radical reforms, so Fu Ning guessed that Emperor Shunhe was indeed preparing for a larger-scale reform.

However, when the imperial court envoys set off in Yanjing, a noble was suddenly added, which surprised everyone, Jin Feng, the seventh prince of the imperial court!

The seventh prince Jin Feng has gradually faded out of people's field of vision since he created a farce of "living out of the funeral" in order to escape the personal trial of the third prince Jin Feng, and anyone can see that Jin Feng just wants to be a rich prince and does not want to participate in political affairs, but this time Jin Feng suddenly appeared, and everyone couldn't feel the pulse of the court for a while; "Could it be that he is fighting tiger brothers and father-son soldiers? Emperor Shunhe is going to use his own brother after all? For a while, the envoys were in an uproar!

The courtiers looked at each other and were puzzled by Emperor Shunhe's decision! And Yanshantang is also confused, and he doesn't know where to start if he wants to find out the reason!

The seventh prince Jin Feng was very low-key, and he didn't speak when he entered the envoy group, just took a photo with Shui Rong and got on the sedan car, and then boarded the ship in Tongzhou and went to Tanggu to change the ship and leave the port.

It stands to reason that the East China Sea Kingdom will at least send a director-level important minister to greet the imperial envoys, but Yao Shisun, the secretary of administrative affairs, does not want to go at all; "I'm so busy with my feet on the ground for the big celebration! How can I go to Ningyuan Port to receive them! I'm not going! The owner, you better go to another person! ”。

Fu Ning found that the high-level personnel of the East China Sea Kingdom were used to bargaining one by one, and he was so angry that he just wanted to scold people! Several directors of various departments were reluctant to go, so Zhang Hui, the director of the department, was "picked up" by Fu Ning, "You go!" They don't want to go, you don't care about the director of the department, you have to go! So Zhang Hui had to take the task depressed.

On October 15, the imperial court envoys went ashore at the port in Ningyuan District, and as soon as they landed, Wang Ziteng sent out an evil fire, "This official is a dignified scholar, what do you mean by the East China Sea Kingdom sending a director to receive us?" Don't you want to receive this official? That's all you have in the East China Sea?! ”。

Zhang Hui was also on fire, "Lao Tzu doesn't care about the director of the department!" It's not that the secretary doesn't care about things! -- Lao Tzu started a fire and even dared to take over the army temporarily, the official is big enough! Receiving you is giving you face, don't be ashamed! ”。

A member of the imperial court envoy group hurriedly whispered to Wang Ziteng to explain that no matter what kind of department the division was in the East China Sea Kingdom, Wang Ziteng was stunned when he heard it, "There is still such a yamen?" Who gave the confused idea?! Wang Ziteng only felt depressed, he knew too little about the East China Sea Kingdom!

"What about Prince Fu? Why didn't he come over to receive him personally? How can this official say that he is also his uncle, why didn't he come over in person?! The prince's first fire was frustrated, so he was unwilling to send a second fire!

"What kind of uncle are you! Jia Yuanchun has never been the princess of the owner's family, and has been dead for 800 years! If you want to talk to the owner, you don't have that qualification yet! ”。

Wang Ziteng was so angry that he wanted to vomit blood again!

The water-soluble Jin Feng, Fu Junyuan and the others who were watching from the side all shook their heads secretly, the dispute between countries has always been based on the general trend, and the dispute over small means is a small means after all, and there is no need to be too serious; The main task of the envoys at present is to find out the bottom of the East China Sea Kingdom, disputes and small means should be put on the back, Wang Ziteng is too urgent after all!

Seeing that the scene was getting colder was not a matter after all, Jin Feng glanced at Shui Rong, so Shui Rong stood up knowingly, raised his hand and said softly: "What happened to the owner you said just now?" Could it be that you all call Fu Wang Ye the owner? Where's the national gift?! Besides, after all, Jia Yuanchun is the lord of the East China Sea who was crowned by the imperial court, and the princess of Shang Donghai, why didn't your country report to the court after her death? ! ”。

"Only the old man who started a business with the owner and the hero who was later knighted as a prince is qualified to call our lord the owner! Although I am not talented, although I followed later, I am also the director of the honorary marquis now, and of course I am qualified to call the lord of the country the owner! As for Jia Yuanchun, although she is the lord of the East China Sea in the imperial court, since the owner does not have her position, she is not the princess of the east family; As for when she died, and why she didn't report it to the court, that's all a matter for the Foreign Affairs Department, and I don't need to answer! ”。 Zhang Hui said it rightly.

"I asked just now, and I heard that you can take care of things that other departments don't care about, so since the Foreign Affairs Department didn't inform the court, you can manage it regardless of the department, why can't I ask you now?!" , although the water is softly spoken, but there are needles hidden in every sentence!

"Yes! I can answer you, but you have to wait until you ask the Foreign Affairs Department first, and the Foreign Affairs Department will give you an answer first, and if you are not satisfied, then you can come to me! As for now, I don't need to answer you! ”。

The water soluble was also hit with a nail!

Fu Junyuan looked at the scene, and then also stood up, "In the report of your Foreign Affairs Department to the imperial court, we will go to Shenyang and Harbin to observe the industry and agriculture after a day of rest in Ningyuan, dare to ask where Harbin is?" The distance on the map is more than 1,500 miles, dare to ask if the distance is so far, do we still have time to watch the ceremony? ”

"Harbin is a place named by the owner, which is on the Songnen Plain in the north; As for the long distance, you don't have to worry, there is a railway over there, and it will take three days to arrive, and you can sleep on the road, and it will not affect your viewing ceremony. ”。

"Fifteen hundred miles in three days? Can you sleep on the road? -- Young man, you must know that we are important ministers of the court, so don't deceive us; We're talking about state affairs, not kidding! Jin Feng finally spoke, sneering at Zhang Hui.

"What are we kidding you! Ningyuan to Shenyang 500 miles, take the train for about a day; Shenyang to Harbin is a thousand miles, and it takes more than one day and one night by train; Although there was some noise on the train, there was no problem with sleeping at all, what did I lie to you! On the road, there is a field regiment of the War Department lightly armed to protect you, and you don't have to worry about anything; Eat what you should eat, play what you should play, watch what you should see, and return to Ningyuan after reading it; On the 28th, there was a joint landing exercise on land and sea in Ningyuan, and you had to come over to watch the martial arts; Then I went to Jinzhou to participate in the big celebration, and there will be military parades, state ceremonies, and state banquets, and you can just watch it then! ”

Jin Feng and the others were confused when they heard it, but Shui Rong knew more, and when he was nervous, he grabbed Zhang Hui, "I know you have a railway!" I'm asking you, more than a thousand miles, only one day and one night to get there? Can thousands of people in the car eat and sleep? Even if there are thousands of troops to transport?! ”。

Zhang Hui shook off his water-soluble hand, "Of course!" However, it is not good luck to have a large number of people, and there are more than 2,000 people in your envoy group plus our field regiment, and at least three trains must be used, otherwise it will not be able to be transported at one time! ”

The water-soluble Jin Feng and the others were shocked, the imperial court infantry army ran away for hundreds of miles day and night, and three days, and the East China Sea Kingdom is now thousands of miles day and night, how can the two countries fight in the future? !

Fu Junyuan opened his mouth wide, and was dumbfounded for a moment before looking at Jin Feng, "I'm waiting, right?" It's only been 800 miles in the book of small talking, isn't it?! ”。

Jin Feng shook his head and sighed, "Let's take a look first......!" ”

Zhang Hui saw that a few people didn't believe it, and he didn't bother to say, "You love to believe it or not!" Today you go ashore to rest in Ningyuan for a day, and tomorrow you will take the train to Shenyang to visit Shenyang Heavy Industry, and then you don't be scared stupid! ”。

“……？！” Jin Feng and the others were stunned!

"I'm just a worried life, I'm busy with a big mess under my hands, and I have to come over to play with you, and I have to find the owner to invite me to dinner when I go back, otherwise I'm not too much of a loss!"

"Huh? ......" Zhang Hui seemed to be talking to himself, but Jin Feng and the others were stupid again! Is there such a subordinate who "asks the king for food"?!
