According to Lin Yizhe, the prelude has already been stated. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info to the land confrontation, the Japanese people dedicated to the new style of fast guns, fast artillery, fine and many, compared with the old style of China a few years ago, especially agile and far. In this invasion of Taiwan, the Japanese soldiers were all over the front and back, and they swooped down on the separate roads, and the people were overwhelmed. Solid by the outnumbered, but also by the equipment suspended, after our land division into the platform, and the war with the Japanese is not the ineffectiveness of the battle array. The minister knew that the enemy's strength was too strong, but Fujian Province and the coastal provinces were all important points, and the relationship was very important, and they were discussing the need to increase troops, and they had no spare strength. Except for the Ming Army, the Sheng Army was a guerrilla division in Jingu, and the whole team was transferred to the platform, and it was a last resort. When it comes to recruiting new battalions, it is necessary to refine them for several months, and recruit them from other provinces, most of which are sporadic gatherings, and it is difficult to prevent them from being able to prevent them. And there are soldiers, especially weapons. There are not many old guns in stockpile, and it will take time to try to purchase and ship them to China after the war. This is not something that can be gathered in a hurry. However, the situation between the Japanese and the mainland bandits was very different, so there were losses in Peng and Xiamen. Since the Japanese ships bombarded Xiamen, the ministers and dynasties have been thinking at night, sleeping and eating all the food, and there has been no improvement so far, and they are inexplicably anxious. At this time, it is difficult and urgent, and I dare not ask for reprimand, which leads to the suspicion of evasion. However, the body is weakened and sick, the intelligence is short, the spirit is tired, and the self-knowledge is not enough. If you don't think carefully about the trial and explain it according to the facts, you will miss the opportunity and blame you for it. I wish that the Holy Ming is above, preside over the big plan, do not have the heart of underestimating the enemy, do not listen to the words of the small, do not blame the work of the night, the inside and outside are concentric, the north and the south are combined, and the whole force is focused, and if you do not fall into the tricks of the other, then the widows can be chased away, and the platform can be restored. ”

"The shipmaster and sailor have the new 'Fujing' and 'Jianjing' two armored patrol clippers, supplemented by the clippers and gunboats, and the land batteries, leaning on each other, and the shipmaster and sailors are brave, all of which are well-trained. Lin Yizhe has been in the ship for a long time, loyal and honest, knows the military affairs, and is exterminating the thieves. …… All the general situation, according to the facts, explain the reasons, carefully fold by the post 600 miles gallop, Fu begging Emperor Shengjian instructions, respectfully play. ”

Seeing that Wang Kaitai not only took all the responsibilities in the twists and turns, but also defended himself in many ways and asked the emperor to continue to trust him, Lin Yizhe was moved in his heart.

Maybe he is just a traditional scholar-style local official with mediocre talents, but in his heart, he really pretends to be the people!

"After this fold went up, the emperor did not increase his responsibility for Lord Wang, and only ordered Lord Wang to return to his hometown to recuperate." Xu Run pointed to the reply of Emperor Tongzhi on the copy of the mansion and said, "This matter is over." ”

"I'll go to the king's mansion to offer condolences." Lin Yizhe sighed.

Lin Yizhe changed his clothes, made some preparations, and went to Wang Kaitai's mansion with Chen Wan to pay respects.

When I arrived at Wang Kaitai's house, all the palaces were white at this time, and white curtains were hung on the door and interior of the palace, and there were faint cries in the mourning hall. The porter saw Lin Yizhe coming, and hurriedly went in to report, and after a while, Mrs. Wang personally greeted the door, and seeing Mrs. Wang's sad face, Chen Wan hurriedly stepped forward to support her, and comforted her softly.

Mrs. Wang led Lin Yizhe and Chen Wan to the mourning hall, Lin Yizhe walked to the coffin of Wang Kaitai placed in the middle of the mourning hall, and under the guidance of the master of ceremonies, Lin Yizhe stepped forward to give Wang Kaitai a big salute, put incense on the pillar, and then sat in front of the brazier to burn paper money.

Mrs. Wang watched Lin Yizhe doing all this meticulously, endured her grief, and gave a few words to a maid beside her, and the maid took the order and left, and after a short time, she took a letter over.

"Lord Lin, please get up." Mrs. Wang said, handing over the stop in her hand to Lin Yizhe, "This is a letter written by my husband to my lord, and I am instructed to give it to my lord." ”

Lin Yizhe bowed down to thank him, respectfully took Wang Kaitai's suicide note with both hands, opened it and read it.

The content of Wang Kaitai's suicide note is not long, but a few words made Lin Yizhe cry:

“…… Since the use of troops in Fujian and Taiwan, the sea and land battles, the heart of the servant is like the sun around the king, suddenly sad, suddenly angry, suddenly happy, taste self-laughter. Where the whereabouts of the king are located, the journey is tens of thousands of miles, the sea crosses the forest traces, the bow and knife of the knuckle, the heart is leaning, and the desire to be confused is ,...... The servant did not know the soldiers, the Japanese soldiers invaded Taiwan, and they were worried about dying, but fortunately the king took it on and the servant was comforted. Since ancient times, the generals have been outside, and there will be words of accumulation and destruction of gold in the court, and servants cannot help the king on the battlefield, but whoever is beneficial to the king will do nothing. …… The servant has been fussing Fujian for a long time, and there is no way to know the king, but since the past few years, I have heard the words of the teachers and friends, and the reciprocation of the king, and the servant really has the depth of knowing the king. …… Jun learns through the East and the West, has the courage to do things, is the talent of recreating the world, the servant can't bear to be framed by the villain, and die in the world, so he is willing to use this decaying body to bear it for the king. The servant's strength stopped here, his illness was weak, and he was afraid that he would not be able to see Jun Yan again. The road ahead is difficult, hope that the monarch is good and self-cherishing, prudent and sensitive, heaven rewards diligence, heaven and people's hearts, there is no breathless separation, if you can be diligent, then people's hearts turn, and the sky will follow, this difficult reason is also ......"

Lin Yizhe finished reading the letter and burst into tears.

Thinking that he had only met Wang Kaitai a few times, and Wang Kaitai actually defended himself so much, and now that Wang Kaitai is an ancient man, even if he wants to say a word of thanks, he can't hear it, and his heart is even more sad.

"Prince...... Why did you just leave? ......" Lin Yizhe choked up.

And thinking that Liu Xuan, who had never met him and had a pretty good reputation in the original historical time and space, actually listened to Zuo Zongtang's instructions and wanted to commit a black hand to himself, Lin Yizhe's heart couldn't help but surge with anger.

At this moment, Liu Xuan, who was imprisoned in Tainan Prefecture, suddenly fought a cold war.

From the moment Liu Xuan moved into this cell, he had been feeling unwell.

Now that he is in prison, he can still hear the clanging sound outside, and he knows that it is the migrant workers who are dismantling the feng shui arrangement he has made on the city wall (actually to make room for the construction of the fort).

Thinking that the young man named Lin Yizhe actually began to use the method of cracking feng shui to deal with himself, Liu Xuan's heart was full of anger.

It was getting late now, and through the prison window, a lamp on the opposite side was revealed, with a long slanted wooden pole holding a lantern, which was facing Liu Xuan's side through the window. He felt a little uncomfortable, so he moved to the side, and so that he was almost facing the lamp. Liu Xuan didn't care too much at first, but gradually realized that something was wrong, he looked out the window carefully, and his face turned pale, and he turned around to say something to the jailer outside, but suddenly coughed violently involuntarily.

"Lord Liu, do you have any heart problems? Haven't you heard of it before? The jailer outside listened to Liu Xuan's coughing and said as if he was concerned.

"I'm choking on drinking water, it's out of the way......" Liu Xuan said as he coughed, his face flushed.

The jailer noticed Liu Zhang's strange appearance, and he looked at Liu Xuan in the prison and did not move his footsteps.

He didn't have a good impression of Liu Xuan, so he wouldn't express concern and worry about him, when this Lord Liu was in office, he was not good to them, and he was already in prison and detained, and he heard that it was the governor who personally went to arrest him, and they knew that there must be a "story" in it, so they were far away and didn't want to cause trouble for themselves.

Liu Xuan slowly eased up, he looked at the lamp outside the window that was flickering in the night breeze, and thought that the young man might be as proficient in the art of feng shui as himself, and he couldn't help but shudder again.

Otherwise, how could he have simply ordered himself to be locked up in this treacherous cell?

"Lord Liu, people outside call you 'Liu Banxian', right?" The jailer outside spoke.

"Do you believe in feng shui?" Liu Xuan asked casually.

"I can't believe it or not," the jailer laughed, "and once a relative of the family wanted to buy a new house, and I and a few brothers went with me to see it. At that time, there was a feng shui gentleman who said some truth, and I didn't understand it, just listened, hehe. ”

"Then tell me what he said?" Liu Xuan wanted to relieve the disturbing emotions brought by the discovery just now, so he said to the jailer.

"The house was originally a big house, the repair is called a beauty, there is a big garden, the scenery is very good, but there are some artificial rockeries and small bridges and flowing water, see more, then feel greasy, feel and the scenery of natural mountains and rivers is always different." The jailer said, "Mr. Feng Shui said that this house is far away from the city, it is too isolated, and the worst thing is that the layout of the houses there is against the principles of Feng Shui. It is said that the door rushes to the window, the wind rushes in from the door, and then sprays out from the window, which is a bureau of dispersing wealth, not a livable house. But my relative liked the house, and didn't listen to my husband's advice and bought it. A year later, when his business was going well, it suddenly went down, and when we drank together, he couldn't stop complaining, regretting that he had not listened to the gentleman's advice.

"What the gentleman said is that wealth comes in through the door, but it comes out of the window, which is not conducive to gathering wealth." Liu Xuan nodded and said, "This gentleman still has some skills." ”

"Yes! My relative regretted it and wanted to go to the gentleman again and ask for more advice, but unfortunately he never met him again. The jailer said.

Liu Xuan came to the table, touched the wooden carving of the goshawk with its wings spread on the table, played with it for a while, and suddenly had an idea, so he placed the statue upright on the windowsill, so that the front of the goshawk was aimed at the lamp.

Seeing that Liu Xuan began to fiddle with the eagle again, the jailer couldn't help but be a little surprised.

After entering the prison, his family came to visit him and asked him what he wanted, and after asking for some necessary daily necessities, Liu Xuan specially emphasized that he must bring him this wooden carved goshawk, although the family did not understand, but also complied.

After the wooden eagle was brought, Liu Xuan placed it on the table and played with it from time to time. The jailer didn't understand what was going on, and he didn't ask, but later heard the cell boss who knew a little about feng shui say that this was to use "goshawk wings" to break the "dilemma on all sides", which was a method of feng shui to change luck.

Liu Xuan's mood softened with his actions, and his gaze crossed the goshawk and landed on the slanted neck of the street lamp, and he no longer felt as uncomfortable as before.

This wooden eagle allowed him to crack the feng shui killing game of this cell!

The lamp outside, when viewed from inside the cell, looked like a snake with its body upright but its neck bent. Moreover, it absorbs the evil qi around it, so it causes more harm to people.

The so-called "outside the form and inside", the lamp looked like a snake, so Liu Xuan placed an eagle on the windowsill to restrain it. In Feng Shui, it is called "calling for imagery".

Thinking that the opponent's killing had been broken, Liu Xuan couldn't help but feel a little proud.

It is too subtle and difficult to speculate with common sense. When he was under Zuo Zongtang, he once rented a house, and there was a house called a murderous house, and no one dared to live in it. Liu Xuan went to check curiously, and found that opposite the house was the government office, and there was a pair of stone lions at the door of the government office, which was very powerful, which made the people who lived on the opposite side feel very evil, and the people who lived there were easy to be rushed by the evil spirit. Liu Xuan likes feng shui, and is embarrassed to say that the local prefect moved the stone lion, so in the direction of facing the window, hung a bag of beef jerky, the owner of the house asked the reason, Liu Xuan laughed and said that the lion was raised as a dog, and it would be good to "raise it". Later, the house was inhabited again, and it was really fine.

At this time, Liu Xuan suddenly remembered his old boss Zuo Zongtang in the northwest.

In Liu Xuan's opinion, what Lin Yizhe, who arrested himself and put him in prison, is so similar to Zuo Zongtang's methods!

Like many literati of this era, Liu Xuan likes to read "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", which originated from "Three Kingdoms" but became famous in Chinese folk literature after being edited by Luo Guanzhong's brilliant pen, full of wisdom and strategy, which is really instructive to read. Aren't many of the famous people in it in complex relationships, friends or foes? For example, Lu Bu and Liu Bei are barely friends, even if they are not iron buddies, the relationship should be passable, otherwise, how dare he defect to Liu Bei in Xuzhou when he is embarrassed? But such a friend took Xuzhou and drove Liu Bei to Xiaopei to live. Liu Bei and Cao Cao are enemies, right? But when he was panicking like a lost dog, after all, it was Cao Cao who took him in and gave him a knighthood in the imperial court, and he was fortunate to have a relationship with Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty, so he justifiably became the "imperial uncle......

Zuo Zongtang's history seems to be not difficult to find clues from "Romance of the Three Kingdoms"!

Those who want to achieve great things have no eternal friends and no eternal enemies!

Zuo Zongtang knows the predicament he is in, and he thinks he will not be able to die or be saved, right?

Liu Xuan sighed, remembering that he had offended such a powerful character as Lin Yizhe for Zuo Zongtang, and he couldn't help but feel remorse in his heart. His eyes turned to the window again, and when he saw the wooden eagle, he believed in feng shui as if he had gained strength from the wooden eagle, and his spirit became better again.

At this time, Liu Xuan didn't know that no matter how powerful his feng shui skills were, he couldn't change his fate.

Beijing, Forbidden City, Palace of Nourishing Hearts.

"Liu Xuan, bastard! If you deceive the king, you are innocent! Emperor Tongzhi roared angrily and threw the fold in his hand violently.

Weng Tongyi saw that the piece of music that fell on the ground of the cyan gold brick with a "snap" was Lin Yizhe, the governor of Fujian and Zhejiang, Li Henian, the general of Fuzhou, Wen Yu, and the minister of shipping, Shen Baozhen, who jointly participated in the impeachment of Liu Xuan, the prefect of Tainan, hesitated for a moment, but still stepped forward to pick it up.

He had already read the contents of this excerpt sent by the Military Aircraft Department, and of course he knew why Emperor Tongzhi was angry.

In this excerpt, Lin Yizhe participated in the impeachment of Liu Xuan's crimes, "losing land and losing his master, arrising the enemy deeply", "deceiving superiors and subordinates, blaming others", "greedy for military supplies, careless arrangement", etc., there are more than ten paragraphs! Among them, "seeing death and not saving it, let the surrounding Taiwanese people be slaughtered by the Japanese army" was the most shocking, and it also angered Emperor Tongzhi the most.

"Draft, to correct Liu Xuan on the spot! You don't have to send it to Beijing! Emperor Tongzhi said loudly and slammed his fist on the table, startling Weng Tongyi.

"The emperor is angry." Weng Tonggong endured the discomfort of his suddenly frightened heart, and said cautiously, "I think that this matter needs to be considered in the long run......

"What? Think long-term? ......" Emperor Tongzhi was stunned for a moment, but the anger in his eyes still did not subside.

Weng Tongyi wanted to speak and stopped, but just swept the palace maids and eunuchs around him who were still kneeling on the ground with the corner of his eye.

And Emperor Tongzhi followed Weng Tongxi's gaze to the left and right, and then said, "Come, Master Weng, follow me to Xinuan Pavilion to talk." The voice fell, and he had already taken the lead towards the West Warm Pavilion of the Heart Cultivation Palace.

"Master Weng, there are only me and your master and apprentice here, if you have anything to say, it doesn't hurt you to say it." After sending out several palace maids and eunuchs who were originally waiting in the Xinuan Pavilion, Emperor Tongzhi spoke again.

"Yes, Your Majesty." Weng Tongyi lowered his head and thought for a moment, then raised his head with a solemn expression and said, "The old minister thinks that there may be a hidden ...... in this matter."

"Lin Yizhe's recital is clearly written, and the witnesses are there, what else is hidden?" Emperor Tongzhi looked at Weng Tongyi with a puzzled face, "Can Master Weng speak more clearly?" ”

"Return to the emperor......" Weng Tongyi replied solemnly, "Lin Yizhe's participation in the impeachment of Liu Zhang's major crimes, the imperial court has not yet verified, so it is not appropriate to make a hasty decision, and the Japanese ships bombarded Xiamen the previous time, and Lin Yizhe may not be able to escape the responsibility of poor rescue." The Penghu Sailor was destroyed, the Peony Society was slaughtered by the Japanese army, Liu Xuan could not escape the crime of not saving him, and the Xiamen Sailor was destroyed, was Lin Yizhe not responsible? So, the old minister thought. In this matter, the emperor should still not listen to and believe partially......"

Listening to Weng Tongyi's words, the expression on Emperor Tongzhi's face immediately froze, and then he became angry again: "What does Master Weng mean that Liu Xuan's crime will not lead to death?" ”

"Your Majesty! Lao Chen is by no means trying to exonerate Liu Xuan! Weng Tongyi got up and saluted Emperor Tongzhi, and said, "The old minister just thinks that since he is also not saved when he sees death, he only sins Liu Xuan and does not blame Lin Yizhe, I am afraid it will be difficult to convince the public!" ”

Emperor Tongzhi frowned slightly, his face full of confusion, "Why does the teacher think that Lin Yizhe and Liu Xuan are guilty of the same crime...... You...... That minion, what are you doing sneakily there? He suddenly turned his gaze to the door of the Xinuan Pavilion and opened his mouth to shout angrily.

Emperor Tongzhi's voice was very loud, and he was so frightened that he didn't have time to look back to see what was happening at the door, so he only heard a "coo-dong", as if someone knelt down at the door, and then remembered a series of kowtows.
