Chapter 318 Eight Banners Joint Conference (1)
The dispute over sentence reading is a trivial matter, since ancient times, for the "know the people and do not know the people" such a scripture, I don't know how many times there has been a debate, it is not very strange to say, but it involves Hongqing and Hongli, the two popular dragon grandsons, things are not so simple, no, just one night's work, the details of the controversy have spread like a whirlwind between the government and the opposition, for a time countless literati and scholars have been arguing endlessly, for this reason the author of the debate does not know how many, each holds their own opinions, and the debate is really dark, Invisibly, Hongli, who was originally inconspicuous among the government and the opposition, actually became famous.
Hongli's fame seems to be extremely accidental, but in Hongqing's view, it is not the case, this sudden debate between the government and the opposition seems to be accidental, but in fact, someone is pushing behind it, its purpose, just one, that is to build momentum for Hongli, this hidden hand is obviously from the hands of masters, except for the lame man who is hidden in the fourth master's house, I am afraid that no one else can come up with such a strange trick, obviously it is just a trivial matter, after this guy, it actually made the world coax, This kind of method cannot but be said to be quite clever.
If you want to say that you don't mind, it's impossible, no matter who it is, it's impossible not to mind if you're taken advantage of, but if you really want to say how annoyed, but it's not to, because Hongqing has never underestimated Wu Sidao, but it's not afraid, after all, whether it's money, power, power, or dark strength, Hongqing has an absolute advantage in hand, not to mention that there is such a sharp weapon to understand the general trend of the evolution of the dynasty in hand, if this will lose, then Hongqing don't take any succession, Just buy a piece of tofu and kill it directly.
Although the debate between the literati is fierce, when it comes to the result, it is always over, which side does not want to really win, this was the case in ancient times, and there will be no exceptions now, no, those who hold two different opinions have been arguing for more than half a year, the mother said that the mother is reasonable, the public says that the public has a basis, and the quarrel is endless, but there is no result to come out, as for Hongqing, the initiator, he has long forgotten about this matter, no side, Hongqing is too busy, under the entanglement of government affairs, How can you bother to pay attention to those unnutritious text lawsuits.
In a blink of an eye, it was the middle of May of the 46th year of Kangxi, and the fleet that sailed to the South Seas last year had successfully returned, and 12 large sea ships loaded with all kinds of goods were berthed at the Humen Wharf in Guangzhou, and Guo Shilong, the governor of Guangzhou, led the Yamen of each department to meet with the customs personnel, as well as Fan Shijie, the minister of the Qincha who had arrived in Guangzhou as early as the beginning of April, and other officials of the household department went to the Humen Wharf to check the taxes on the goods of the fleet, and after more than a month of inventory, the twelve large sea ships paid a total of 272,500 taels of silver. After deducting all costs, the actual profit of the fleet amounted to 1,277,800 taels.
On June 26, the 46th year of Kangxi, Fan Shijie and Guo Shilong jointly arrived in Beijing and reported the verification of the ocean-going fleet to the Imperial Palace.
On the first day of the seventh month of the forty-sixth year of Kangxi, the old man who was annoyed by the eight banners of the magnates finally made up his mind, summoned Hongqing into the Qianqing Palace, and after some secret discussions, he issued an edict on the matter of the Eight Banners business, and Hongqing was the minister of supervision, fully responsible for this matter, and ordered the eight banners to cooperate with the yamen, I couldn't resist it, so I had to urge Hongqing to hurry up and get the matter done.
Everyone else is in a hurry, but Hongqing is not in a hurry at all, there is no side, he can't eat hot tofu in a hurry, this is a major event related to the future of Sheji, Hongqing doesn't want to make any mistakes, except for announcing that five days later, he will discuss this matter in the Yamen of the Eight Banners, there is not a word on the side, and he is allowed to speculate wildly among the magnates of the Eight Banners.
Zhengbang Hutong, located in the east side of Di'anmen, the alley is not big, 30 zhang long, more than 30 zhang wide, both sides are bungalows, each has 36 bays, in the early years, it was an industry under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, idle for many years, and then allocated to the Eight Banners in November of Kangxi Kangxi, for office purposes, although it has been simply repaired, but it is still full of decayed atmosphere, in the past, it is every fifteen times when there are more people, otherwise, there are only three or two cats in the huge yamen, It is not an exaggeration to say that it is the most idle yamen in the Manjing Division, but now the Zhebang Hutong is crowded with people, not only is the yamen overcrowded, but the surrounding streets are also crowded with countless idle flag people, not for anything else, just because today according to the agreement, it is the day when Hongqing went to the Eight Banners Yamen to discuss matters, and the people who have long been looking forward to being able to get great profits from the Eight Banners business have all heard the news and rushed to come, and they are stunned to block the Zhengbang Hutong tightly in three layers and three layers outside.
"It's coming, it's coming!"
"Well, it's finally here!
"Get out of the way, get out of the way, get out of the way, get out of the way!"
Halfway through the hour, a burst of cheers suddenly sounded in the noisy crowd, and a group of flag people gathered at the gate of the Eight Banners were noisy, shouting, and consciously gave way to it.
"The little one has seen Sunny Baylor!"
"The little one is a gift to Harubele!"
"Sunny Belle, you're here!"
……
Eight sedan chairs slowly passed through the crowd, came to the entrance of the yamen, with a guard's broken shout, the sedan chair has fallen steadily to the ground, two of their own guards rushed forward, one left and one right opened the sedan curtain, even when I saw a neat court dress Hongqing has been out of the sedan chair, a group of onlookers suddenly boiled, the salute, the greetings, the whole yamen suddenly became a mess.
Yes, what does it mean that money can make ghosts grind, isn't that!
Although he had long expected the popularity of this discussion, but when he really saw the crowd of people, Hongqing couldn't help but gasp, and secretly sighed in his heart, but there was nothing out of his temper, so he just smiled and waved at everyone, but he didn't say much.
"Yo, Sunny Baylor is here, and the old man has given you a salute."
Looking forward to Hongqing's arrival is not only the ordinary flag people, the eight banners, Han, and Mongolia, a total of twenty-four are also waiting in the ear room at the yamen, this time seeing the noise outside, the twenty-four can not sit still, all of them poured out of the yamen, when the first old man with white hair and hair bowed to Hongqing, this person is the yellow flag of the full forehead.
According to the ancestral system of the Qing Dynasty, Manchu, Mongolia, and Khan each have eight flags, among which the inlaid yellow flag is the most expensive, the yellow flag and the white flag are second, and the remaining eight flags are the next five flags, and the flag owner of the upper three flags is the emperor himself, and the remaining eight flags have the flag master, but the rules are the rules, in fact, the emperor himself is just a name, as for the rest of the flag owners, all of them are placed in Shengjing (now Shenyang), and they are not allowed to leave Shengjing half a step without authorization, and the actual commander of each flag is the big gang of commanders in front of Hongqing, Among them, the yellow flag is the most honorable - the forehead is full of Shun, the yellow flag people, his father was the emperor's personal guard, in the founding of the country has made great contributions, was awarded the second class duke, Kangxi died of illness in four years, the forehead of the full shun inherited his father, first served as the third class guard of the inner house, and then transferred to the Fengtai battalion as a general, participated in the breaking of the Ao Bai, the three feudal clans and the two battles of the Western Expedition to Galdan, Kangxi 40 years in July, appointed the inlaid yellow flag to the present, is one of the most listened to the old man's door.
"There is a long time for the princess, and it is all the fault of this Baylor, and please ask Haihan to be one."
Hongqing is not very familiar with these gang of Eight Banners, most of them are just a little greeting when they go up and down, in addition, there is no intersection, not for anything else, just because Hongqing looks down on this gang of vegetarian guys, in Hongqing's opinion, these gang of people belong to the kind of goods that are not enough to succeed and have more than enough failures, and it will not be of much help to have a good relationship with these guys, but if you accidentally offend it, it will be a lot of trouble, don't you see that the old man has a headache for these guys, It is appropriate to stay away from it, but in such an occasion, Hongqing will not have the slightest ambiguity, and the etiquette will not be said. The smile on his face was also very kind.
"Qing Belle is what you are talking about, I am looking forward to you but I am looking forward to Ganlin, I was talking to Lao Tai about you before, but you are here in the cocoa, haha...... it's really a coincidence."
Although he didn't have much friendship with Hongqing, he made a look of being very affectionate with Hongqing, and flattered him with laughter.
"Lord E, I'm polite, Ben Belle came on an errand by order, and I ask Lord Ea and the princes to cooperate."
Forehead Manshun is a faction of rough and arrogant shape, but Hongqing has long known its roots, this guy is not a character like Zhang Fei, but a smiling tiger, as for the "old Tai" it mentioned, it is the white flag of the Tongtai Ming, this person is also a long-term follower of the old man, and the forehead is a son and daughter, the relationship between the two is very close, this is the mouth, the forehead of the full shun seems to be said casually, in fact, it is hinting at Hongqing a fact, that is, the yellow flag and the white flag are one, I want to get more benefits from the Eight Banners business, this kind of intention is too obvious, with Hongqing's IQ, I can understand it as soon as I hear it, but I understand it, but Hongqing didn't pay attention to it, so he just smiled faintly, and bowed his hand very kindly.
"Well said, well said, ah, Harum Belle, please inside."
Seeing that Hongqing didn't react to his hints, the corners of his eyes suddenly twitched, but he didn't say anything, laughed and waved his hand, got out of the way, and motioned for Hongqing to ask first.
"Your Excellency, Princess, please!"
Hongqing had no intention of chatting with these generals at the door, but when she saw that she was full of Shun and got out of the way, she was not pretentious, nodded with a smile, explained a sentence of the scene, and then walked towards the yamen with her head held high.
