"Well done! Come, come, sit down. In Suzhou, in the Liangjiang Governor's Mansion of the former Manchu Qing Dynasty, Lin Haifeng took Gu Xuejiang's hand, patted him on the shoulder, and turned his face to look at Liu Xianghe on the side, "Look at it, such a weak and talented son has also become a fighter on the hidden front of the Celestial Empire." ”

"How dangerous, once that Hao Lisu turned his face at that time, wouldn't Gu Gongzi become a meat bun and beat ......" Liu Xianghe covered his mouth and smiled.

"Actually, Hao Lisu is not a fool, he won't be unable to understand the form." Gu Xuejiang's face was a little red, "He still stepped on two boats at the beginning." On the one hand, he was not satisfied with Yiliang's plan to destroy the city, but on the other hand, he still followed Yiliang's idea to place gunpowder and other ignition appliances in so many places. The students were worried that if one of these things was ignited during the siege of the Heavenly Army, Suzhou would suffer a lot of losses. So...... So in the end, you have to have a showdown with him. Hehe, I can't care about His Highness's warning in advance. ”

"Yes, the enemy is vicious and rampant. Didn't Yi Liang kill some of the squires who had supported them with his own hands before escaping from the city? Lin Haifeng sighed, "What happened in Suzhou is a good teaching material, it will make everyone see the true face of the Manchu Qing Dynasty clearly, especially those who still have illusions about this ** court." ”

"Your Highness, some of the people of Fengqiao have been displaced, and the students have donated our Gu family's garden to the Celestial Empire on behalf of their father, so that many refugees can be resettled. There is another ......" Gu Xuejiang said, bowing his head embarrassedly, "I discussed it with my father when the student came, and my father was also very willing, so I left the student in His Highness's barracks." ”

"Hehe, do you still want to be a Red Army?" Lin Haifeng smiled.

"Alas, the more students see it, the more they understand that if they don't use weapons to destroy this Qing court, it is useless to study or do business." Gu Xuejiang looked at King An expectantly.

"Actually, you can become a warrior of the Celestial Empire without wearing a military uniform." Lin Haifeng thought about it and looked at Gu Xuejiang seriously, "Since you want to be a soldier on the spot, then let's do it, isn't your cousin Fan Wenrui going to Beijing soon?" If you want, go back and ask Liu Shang to write a letter, and you take it back to him, and assist him to go to Beijing together. ”

"Go to the capital to run a business house and sell cigarettes?" Gu Xuejiang widened his puzzled eyes and asked.

"Haha, the cigarettes from the Zhenjiang Tobacco Factory are much better than the dry tobacco pots that the people there smoke." Lin Haifeng smiled happily, took out the cigarette purse from his arms, smelled it, and then raised it towards Gu Xuejiang, "Haven't you tasted it carefully, smelled it, how fragrant it is, hehe, and there is a strong smell of wine." ”

Seeing King An roll up a cigarette with his hands and feet and holding it to the corner of his mouth, Gu Xuejiang was even more puzzled, "Your Highness, isn't the Heavenly Empire not allowing people to smoke?" ”

"Hehe, smoking is not good, it is harmful to the body, so the Celestial Empire does not encourage everyone to smoke, just as drinking alcohol is easy to confuse people's nature, and the Celestial Empire does not allow casual drinking." Lin Haifeng lit a paper cigarette, took a puff, and looked at Liu Xianghe, who was snickering on the side, "However, some things are a person's hobby, and it is not advisable to be overly forced." Everything must have a degree, as long as it is not excessive, it is better to let it be. Of course, opium and prostitutes, which corrupt human morals and norms, and corrode and anesthetize the entire nation, are not among them, and must be resolutely eliminated. ”

"Beijing's tobacco firms should not only do it, but also make it bigger and do a good job." Lin Haifeng glanced at Gu Xuejiang, who was still thinking, "From now on, you are a member of the Economic Intelligence Bureau of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Celestial Empire, and you accept Fan Wenrui's command." In Beijing and Tianjin, it was necessary to open channels to get close to people from all walks of life, to win over Manchu officials, and to obtain more military intelligence for the Celestial Army. The children of the Eight Banners have money, enough for you to earn. It was another battlefield, a battlefield where there was no smoke of gunpowder and no sound of killing. The Celestial Empire also needs great economic victories. ”

Gu Xuejiang nodded.

"One thing you have to remember is to hide your true identity from anyone, including your parents and loved ones. Specific precautions, Fan Wenrui will guide you later. After Lin Haifeng finished speaking, he stood up, "Okay, let's go and see Lord Hao Lisu Hao, why can't we snub the heroes." I heard that our Governor Zeng Zhaoyang asked this Lord Hao to go out of the mountain, but he still refused. ”

Gu Xuejiang smiled, "My father said that this Lord Hao is a bit of a reading idiot. ”

It seems that the yamen of the feudal division is still the same as before, but it is quieter than usual, and there is no longer a lively scene of people coming and going. There are still many guards and servants in the yamen, but what is missing is the sedan chair drivers in the sedan room, and the green sedan chair carried by eight people was left alone in a corner. When the Taiping Army came, the first batch of people who consciously spread their braids and threw themselves into the torrent of turning over were these people who once used their shoulders and bodies to carry others.

Hao Lisu sat alone in the study, as if he was asleep, but occasionally let out a soft sigh. The general trend has gone, although he does not want to see Suzhou destroyed in his own hands and chooses to surrender, but he can't convince himself to "go along with the rebels".

From the countryside to the people, and then to the Jinshi, his glory is given by the imperial court, and the grace of the saint is vast. As for what their new governor of Jiangsu, Zeng Zhaoyang, said that the Manchus were dissatisfied with the Qing, it seems too far-fetched, what happened to the Manchus, the Manchus should not be able to speak Chinese. Doesn't this mean that the Manchus are being assimilated by the vast Han Chinese? In any case, rebellion is always the behavior of those who have low status, or who have a grudge against the court, and from any point they cannot care about people like themselves.

Now, where do we go from here?

"My lord, their Anwang Chitose is here, you see......" An errand officer ran in. Since the governor of Jiangsu who fought the Taiping Army left, Lord Hao has spread the word that he doesn't want to see any outsiders again, but this time it is the prince Chitose of other people, and he can't make up his mind.

"Said that the official was sick and couldn't see guests." Hao Lisu didn't raise his head, blurted out, and immediately, he felt a little wrong, and looked up at the errand officer who was still hesitating, "Who did you just say was coming?" ”

"It's their King An, who is waiting outside the lobby door right now." The messenger seemed to have some guilt on his face, and added, "The little one said that the adult might be unwell, so tell him to sit in the lobby for a while, and let the little one come back to report back to the adult." But King An did not enter the door, saying that it would be good to wait at the door. He also said that if the adult is really ill, he will go back first and come back again. ”

"Oh!" Hao Lisu slowly stood up and straightened his clothes, "Please ask him to wait in the lobby, and the official will go over." "Since the other party treats others with courtesy, he should always return the courtesy.
