The French emperor and his wife had made up their minds and immediately set about action. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

Soon, some visitors to the Château de Fontainebleau were surprised to find that a large number of Chinese treasures had been removed from the "China Pavilion", packed by professional staff and transported away, as well as a large number of Chinese treasures that had been transported from nowhere, including huge golden stupas and Buddha statues, beautiful porcelain, beautifully carved jade, simple and huge bronzes, and scrolls of calligraphy and paintings; Among these treasures, the twelve well-cast and intricately carved bronze animal heads are particularly eye-catching.

Tianjin, China, Zhili Governor's Office.

It was already late at night, and the gray-haired Zeng Guofan still did not rest, although he was blind in one eye, but by the candlelight, he still kept writing the recitals there. He wanted to deliver it to Kyori early tomorrow morning.

Because this manuscript is related to the life and future of a young junior.

“…… The Dharma Lord returned the treasures of the Old Summer Palace this time, a total of 4,000 pieces, which showed his goodwill to China and repented of his previous sins with great sincerity. …… The Dharma Master's note stated that he was deceived by the thief chief Mengtopi, and it was not for Lin Yizhe's warning, and he could not stop. This time the return of the old treasures in the park, the power of Lin Yizhe also. Now the national treasure has to be returned, in the past, the burning of the garden thief chief subdued the law, from the point of view, Lin Yizhe not only has no fault, but also has a great contribution to the country, his actions are cautious and old-fashioned, quite the style of Zulin Wenzhonggong......"

After the manuscript was written, Zeng Guofan carefully checked it again, and after confirming that it was correct, he opened a blank fold and copied it in small letters. After a while, Zeng Guofan finished copying, and after reading it again, he breathed a sigh of relief.

At about the same time, Li Hongzhang also wrote a recital of Libao Lin Yizhe under the lamp.

“…… Lin Yi's philosophical knowledge is deep and mellow, he pays attention to the secrets and ingenuity of Westerners, and his ability to do foreign affairs and affairs is rare, which is enough to help the difficult times. However, if you are too serious, you should be too sloppy and sloppy. It is too violent again, and its people are wholehearted, loyal and bloody, but they don't know it, and they are in the realm of holding profit and keeping Tai. Those who know are quite worried. …… The great changes in the world are like a fire burning the plains. If you want to do things, you have to choose people, and if you want to choose people, you have to slander, and one or two vertical Confucians are heretics, regarded as resentment, and they are often attacked by groups. The former Wang Jiabi said a few things, first destroyed Lin Yizhe, and then corrected Shen Baozhen, if there is a deep grudge, there is no other, and he will repay his personal grievances for Zuo Zongtang. …… Lin Yizhe is ten times more talented, so the Dharma Master is bent on pushing the weight. This kind of slander, such as the prelude to Wang Jiabi, is rumored to be a laughing stock at home and abroad, although it is almost a temporary slander, it has its own straight ......"

Beijing, Forbidden City, Qinzheng Palace.

"I said Sixth Master, this matter has been making trouble for so long, shouldn't it be over today?" The Empress Dowager Cixi pointed to a large wooden box placed on the ground, "If you continue like this, I'm afraid the paper in this capital will be expensive, right?" ”

Prince Gong glanced at the large wooden box, which was full of folds.

Of course, he knew who these twists and turns were.

"What the Queen Mother said is that this matter should be over." Prince Gong bowed down and said, "Please also ask the Queen Mother to make it clear." ”

"What does the sixth master think about this?" Empress Dowager Cixi asked quietly.

"Zeng Guofan, Li Hongzhang, and Ding Richang played Lin Yizhe's excerpts, and Zuo Zongtang, Wu Ren, and Ding Baozhen participated in Lin Yizhe's excerpts, and the Queen Mother thought she had already seen them." Prince Gong looked at the face of the Empress Dowager Cixi carefully, and said slowly, "The minister thinks that Lin Yizhe has made great contributions to the country by promoting the Dharma Master's sincere goodwill and returning the national treasure. ”

"That is to say, he who deserves to be rewarded will be rewarded, and he who deserves to be punished will be punished." Empress Dowager Cixi nodded, "Rewards and punishments must be clear in order to serve the hearts of the people in the world." ”

"The Empress Dowager Shengming." Prince Gong said respectfully.

Since the killing of Ande Haihai, the Empress Dowager Cixi has not been as kind to Prince Gong as before.

"So what does the sixth master think, how to reward and punish Lin Yizhe?" Empress Dowager Cixi asked again.

"The reward should not be too generous, and the punishment should not be too heavy." Prince Gong quietly kicked the ball back to Cixi, "If the reward is too generous, Shilin is not satisfied, and if the punishment is too heavy, the Dharma Lord will inevitably be angry when he hears it, and it will hinder the friendship between the two countries, so ......"

"Okay, I got it." The Empress Dowager Cixi nodded and interrupted him.

After Prince Gong kowtowed, he immediately retired.

At this time, only the Empress Dowager Cixi herself was left in the hall, and Liu Chengyin and several eunuchs saw that the Empress Dowager was pacing there, and did not summon them, so they did not come forward, but waited there.

The Empress Dowager Cixi took out a white object from her sleeve, took it in her hand and looked at it, and immediately received it in her sleeve.

"This jade can't be cut, I'll record the credit for this time on your account first." Empress Dowager Cixi muttered to herself.

On August 30, the 10th year of Tongzhi, the cabinet issued an edict: "According to Lin Yizhe, a member of the assistant office of the Dali Temple Shaoqing Wang Jiabi, who participated in the shipping administration, etc., the edict ordered the officials to investigate, and the sections they participated in were either not confirmed, or there was a reason for the matter, Lin Yizhe promoted the friendship between China and France, and rewarded a jade coin to encourage him. If he acts in a proper manner, he shall be punished for ten years. Dali Temple Shaoqing Wang Jiabi was deceived by others, vain discussions, Taifu Temple Shaoqing in Lingchen attached to the welcome, there was a defilement, fined for half a year. ”

Hangzhou, Yuanbao Hutong, Hu Xueyan private.

Today's Hu Xueyan got up late, yesterday after negotiating a loan with HSBC, he was excited to return home, and went straight to the thirteenth floor, a lot of clouds and rain, maybe it took too long, he slept very hard, and when he woke up again, it was already the next morning.

After breakfast, which was actually lunch, the servant sent the newspaper to the palace as usual, and when Hu Xueyan saw this edict from the newspaper, he was stunned for a moment. Last night, the good mood brought by borrowing money to get a big profit was swept away at once.

Because he couldn't imagine how Lin Yizhe could escape this catastrophe.

You must know that not only the imperial historians and officials participated in Lin Yizhe, but Zuo Zongtang also drew a large number of Zhejiang officials to join him!

"If you don't pull him down this time, I'm afraid it will be even more difficult in the future."

Hu Xueyan was angry and hateful, he didn't know that when Zuo Zongtang saw the same edict, his face suddenly turned blue.

may have been affected by the northwest wind and cold, Zuo Zongtang actually coughed violently for a while after reading the newspaper.

He didn't think that he had contacted so many Zhejiang provincial officials to play, and in the end it turned out to be such a result.

And what made him even more puzzled was why the Empress Dowager Cixi would finally react to "rewarding a jade coin".

"We'll see! Don't think that with Zeng Guofan's old decay protection, you can be bold! Sooner or later, the old man will have to clean you up! Zuo Zongtang didn't think about the meaning of the jade coin, but hated it again and again.

※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※

Sending away the eunuch who announced the decree, Lin Yizhe looked at the gift of the queen mother in his hand, and couldn't help but feel a little inexplicable.

Cixi rewarded him with a jade coin.

This is a round square hole big coin carved with Hetian green and white jade, the front is engraved with four seal characters of "Changyi descendants", but the back is smooth and smooth, without any carving.

In terms of jade quality alone, this coin is made of high-grade Hetian mutton fat jade, which is warm and cool to start with, and the value can also be said to be very expensive, but the Empress Dowager Cixi gave herself such a coin, which made Lin Yizhe feel puzzled.

"I heard that the Queen Mother has a reward, and the old man asked for a look." Xu Run's voice pulled Lin Yizhe back from his state of thought.

"Mr. came just in time, help me refer to the details, what is the purpose of the Queen Mother giving me a jade coin." Lin Yizhe said and handed the jade coin in his hand to Xu Run.

Xu Run took the jade money and looked at it carefully, and after a while, he laughed.

"Congratulations, my lord, my future is now decided."

"What do you mean by that?" Lin Yizhe said in surprise.

Although he has been integrated into this era, Lin Yizhe, as a time-traveler, is still a modern person in his bones, and he still can't see through some things in this era.

"My lord thinks that he hasn't understood the deep meaning of the queen mother's reward for this jade money, so I'll explain it to my lord." Xu Run said with a smile, "My lord, please see, the front of this money is the four characters of 'Changyi descendants', and the back is plain and plain, and it is green and white jade." Qingbai jade and plain noodles, that is, the meaning of 'innocent life', and the meaning of the four words 'Changyi descendants', adults must understand, there is no need to be old and tongue-in-cheek. ”

"Does the Queen Mother want me to understand the truth of 'being innocent' so that I can 'grow up with my descendants'?" Lin Yizhe smiled and said, "But what does this have to do with my future?" ”

"Don't forget, my lord, this is a 'money'!" Xu Run said with a smile, deliberately emphasizing the word "money" in an aggravated tone.

"The Queen Mother is telling your adults that the future can also be good for children and grandchildren."

"I see, I see." Lin Yizhe's heart suddenly changed, and he carefully put away the jade money rewarded by the Queen Mother.

"Previously, due to the success of the transformation of the 'Wannian Qing', the Queen Mother has rewarded the adult with the title of political envoy, which is inconvenient to be rewarded, and can be exempted from the discussion between the DPRK and China, so as not to allow someone to borrow the treasure as a promotion in the future." Xu Run said again, "Therefore, this time I only rewarded the adult with such a jade coin." But in the eyes of the old man, this jade coin will not be exchanged for a political envoy, hehe. ”

"I hope it will be as the gentleman said." Lin Yizhe said with a smile. At this time, he actually had a trace of respect for Cixi, a woman who had been demonized incomparably in the textbooks of later generations.

"It's just that this time, adults are not allowed to participate in the scientific examination for ten years, and their fame will be greatly affected, which is a fly in the ointment." Xu Run said, "Lord Shen has been very sad about this for the past few days. If you had known this was the case, you should not have been asked to help with the ship's affairs. ”

"Yes, yes, you can't refer to it for ten years, and this punishment is a bit heavy." Lin Yizhe sighed.

How did Xu Run know that although Lin Yizhe said it with great pain on his lips, he was crying out for luck in his heart.

Not being allowed to participate in the imperial examination for ten years is simply undesirable for him, a traverser.

At his current level, if he participates in the scientific examination, he will be allowed to leak the stuffing in the first exam.

You know, his predecessor is Xie Yuan from Fujian Province!
