Chapter 109: Why
At night in the imperial palace of the capital, the days of Emperor Xianfeng, who was the big green fruit, were very tragic. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info Many rebels in the world have begun to rebel, and they are all facing various rebellions, and I don't know how many rebels there are. Now, although Yiliang has suppressed this so-called Heaven and Earth Society, Xianfeng Haas feels unsteady. He was still unsteady in his heart, because the rebellion in Fujian had not been resolved, and the strength of the Taiping Army was stronger than that of the Heaven and Earth Society. Even the North has become a time bomb that does not know when it will explode, and the northern twists have begun to be connected in tandem, not knowing when to launch an uprising.
He ordered the sticky rod to investigate, but now the sticky rod is also overstretched. The sticky pole is only to collect the flag people, and even the flag people are mainly in the Eight Banners Manchuria. If there are naturally enough manpower in peacetime, but in troubled times, then it must be investigated everywhere. There is no peace everywhere, and the intelligence resources at the sticky pole are not enough, and there is a serious shortage of people! Because of the lack of intelligence resources, they are now unable to investigate in time when the twisters will revolt, and even the aggregate intelligence is insufficient.
Xianfeng touched his brain, it really hurt!
"Your Majesty!" A eunuch came over with a silver platter, and there were many signs of various colors on it, which is also called a flop.
Xianfeng looked at the sign, and then saw an unfamiliar name.
"Your Majesty, this is Lan Guiren, who was born in the Yehenala clan. I just entered the palace through the draft half a year ago, and I am eighteen years old this year, and I have not yet been favored by the emperor! The eunuch said.
Xianfeng is in a bad mood now, and he just wants to vent, but now he sees a "newcomer" who has just entered the palace, and immediately has some ideas of "**** to try it." After all, Xianfeng is very annoying now, and he happens to sleep with an eighteen-year-old girl to suppress the shock.
Xianfeng just stretched out his hand and turned over the sign of this Lan Guiren from the Yehenara clan, and the eunuch had just gone to inform Lan Guiren to prepare for bed. At this time, the Minister of the Interior of the Guard, who was in charge of the sticky pole, hurried over.
"Your Majesty, it's not good, it's not good! There was 100,000 urgent news from the sticky pole in Jiangning, and something big had happened! β
Xianfeng asked, "Jiang Ning, isn't Yiliang there?" What can be the matter? β
The minister of the guard didn't dare to say more, but handed the papers of the information to Xianfeng. Xianfeng still didn't think there would be anything wrong with Jiang Ning, because Jiang Ning could be guarded by Yiliang. Yi Liang is a talent among the people, if he did not advocate tough treatment and refused to compromise at that time, he was excluded by the Lord and the faction. And later, he actually advocated gradual foreign exchanges, which completely offended the ancestral system that had been closed off from the country all along, and let him be completely cleaned up.
But now that the world is in turmoil, I have to bring him up again, who makes it impossible for a few real outstanding talents in the banner people now, that is, him. Anyway, it's better to use him than to be able to use Han people! So Xianfeng didn't think there would be any problems with Jiangning, after all, Yiliang's ability was known to the Manchu Qing Dynasty.
However, when Xianfeng saw the specific situation, he immediately felt sweet in his throat and shouted: "Yiliang, I mistakenly believe you, a despicable and shameless villain, rebellious!" β
Then, Xianfeng thought of the shocking consequences of the rebellion in the Liangjiang region, and immediately felt that his chest was hammered.
"Poof-" Xianfeng vomited blood on the spot.
"Your Majesty, what's wrong with you?" "Your Majesty, Your Majesty's ......"
It's a pity that the seventeen-year-old Lan nobleman from the Yehenala clan, who was supposed to be favored by Xianfeng, still maintains her virgin body, and her future fate was once again instigated and changed by a little butterfly surnamed Chen.
As the saying goes, in officialdom what spreads the fastest - the news wears the fastest! Although the door of the palace has hung up on you in the evening, there are always some well-informed people who have received an astonishing news through various channels. That is Emperor Xianfeng's angry vomiting of blood, really vomiting blood.
Even, soon the news at the sticky pole immediately spread throughout the capital.
"Why?" "Why?" "Why the hell is this?" β¦β¦
The various families and princes of the entire capital and the Manchu and Han bigwigs all said the word "why" one by one. Because this is ridiculous, it's just ridiculous. This simply feels like yin and yang are reversed, and heaven and earth are turned upside down. It's impossible! Even if you may believe that the sun is coming out of the west, you will not want to believe that this is true?
"Yiliang rebelled?" "Wouldn't it? Yiliang is a flag man! "The bannermen have rebelled?" "Impossible! Yiliang is the Guerjia clan, how can the people of the Guarjia clan rebel? "Oh my God! Oh, my God? What the hell is going on here? ββ¦β¦
The bigwigs of the entire capital also ignored the curfew at night, and hurriedly got up from their young and beautiful concubines in displeasure, and quickly ran out of the door in disheveled clothes. As a result, they soon found that there were many people with their Avène along the way, and they communicated directly on the road despite the night.
"Wenxiang, what's going on here? Yiliang is a member of your Guerjia clan, why did he rebel? Someone immediately grabbed Lang Wenxiang, a member of the Ministry of Labor, and asked.
Wen Xiang is also bitter, how does he know which tendon of this Yiliang is wrong, and he actually took the initiative to rebel? This is simply unreasonable, the people of the Guerjia clan have received the emperor's grace for generations, and the emperor's grace is immense! Even the Guerjia clan is a famous clan of relatives, and it is also tied to the Aixin Jueluo family. The Qing Dynasty is over, and his Guarjia clan is no good!
However, Wen Xiang still gritted his teeth and said: "I want to directly conclude that Yiliang rebelled now, isn't this right?" Now the specific situation is not clear, I think this is just the words of the sticky pole, and it cannot be used as real evidence, this is just an isolated evidence, and it cannot be proven! β
"Hmph, will the sticky pole betray the court and betray the emperor? This can't be! "Once the Liangjiang key land rebels, the Cao Yun will be cut off, if the Cao Yun is cut off, then all of us here, in a few months, maybe we won't even be able to drink the porridge!" Someone scolded.
The important land of Liangjiang is not only an important place for finance and taxation, although the famous saying that Su Changshu is full of the world has passed, and the Su Chang area has become a grain inflow area, and it cannot provide additional food. However, the importance of the Suchang region to the Manchu Qing Dynasty has not decreased, but is increasing. The Suchang area is an area with a dense water network and developed commerce. Salt merchants in Yangzhou, and even merchants from all over the country gather here. Even the financial and tax sources of the Suchang region are the main source of military pay to support the hundreds of thousands of troops of the Manchu Qing Dynasty.
Once there is a change in the Suchang area, the consequences will be unimaginable! The fiscal and tax grain in the Suchang region could not be transported to the north, and there was one less grain in the north. The Central Plains has long ceased to be the area that provides food, but has become an area where grain flows. If there is no grain from the south to the north through the continuous transportation of water, it is really not able to support it for too long.
These officials may not be able to afford to eat porridge for a few months, which may be an exaggeration, but it is enough to show the importance of Caoyun's support for the north. Not only cut off the transportation, but also cut off the economic support of the Jiangsu, Changjiang, and Zhejiang regions, and the hundreds of thousands of troops of the Manchu Qing Dynasty were in danger of running out of food and wages. At that time, there was no food and no military pay, and these Qiu Ba would not listen to you! If these Qiu Ba did not have military pay and no food, they would definitely mutiny. It is even very possible to turn against the enemy and strike a counterattack.
"Why the hell is this?" Immediately someone said this.
Many people, including Xianfeng, know what this means, hasn't Daqingguo been transported by this grassland for so many years? These people are very aware of the current situation, if Su Chang is lost, then I am afraid that the source of food and salary for the hundreds of thousands of Manchu troops will also be unreliable. At that time, I am afraid that it will bring about the collapse of hundreds of thousands of troops, so that the Manchus will face army mutiny, or even defect to the enemy, which will have even worse consequences.
These ruffians won't tell you anything loyal, and if you don't have enough food, they're going to rebel! Therefore, this crisis is a crisis of hundreds of thousands of troops, and it is even enough to evolve the crisis of the entire Daqingguo. But everyone began to ponder and ponder, and it seemed that they couldn't find out why this Yiliang rebelled and why he rebelled?
He really has no reason!
"What the hell is going on here?" Wen Xiang, who is also from the Guerjia clan, asked.
"Newspaper--, Yiliang, the governor of Liangjiang, sent it through carrier pigeons!"
"Yiliang, this traitor, still want to send a fold?" Some people feel funny.
Wen Xiang snatched it directly unceremoniously, and began to read it aloud: "The slave Qi Emperor, since the minister led the troops to exterminate the Heaven and Earth Society, the soldiers have suffered heavy casualties, and the soldiers have no heart to fight. In order to revitalize our Qing Dynasty Banner Iron Cavalry, the minister specially incorporated the flag soldiers under General Jiang Ning, re-trained and restored the courage of our Qing Dynasty Iron Cavalry. β
And left fifty percent of the grain and seventy percent of the taxes to recruit soldiers and serve the emperor in the future. Originally, the slave thought that he should be able to detain all of them, but the slave was worried that the emperor was in urgent need of food, so he also left fifty percent of the grain and thirty percent of the fiscal taxes to the emperor. Slave Yiliang is thankful! β
Yiliang still calls himself a "slave", obviously showing that he is still a courtier of the Qing Dynasty, and he is still the governor of Liangjiang and the minister of the Qincha, at least he did not explicitly raise the banner of rebellion, and he still belongs to the "loyal ministers and filial sons" of Daqingguo.
"Look, Yiliang didn't rebel!" Wen Xiang said reluctantly.
"Bastard, Wen Xiang, you can't fool yourself by saying this, right?" Someone scolded.
Wen Xiang was silent, he didn't even believe it! He Yiliang did not rebel, but now his behavior is actually no different from rebellion. Wen Xiang's behavior is already self-respect, although there is no official banner of rebellion, but the support of the army is self-respecting, and cut off most of the food and taxes, so it is almost only one step away from the rebellion. What's more, if you do this, you directly take 50% of the grain, and 70% of the taxes, and the remaining 50% is with 30% of the taxes before giving to the court, you seem to be asking for food!
Moreover, this fifty percent of the grain and thirty percent of the fiscal and tax are also in the hands of Yiliang, if Yiliang swallows it completely, there will definitely be problems.
"At that time, how did you give this guy Yiliang the power to cut first and then play, otherwise how could it lead to such a consequence?" Someone scolded.
None of the people present answered, because this matter was too weird, so why did Yiliang rebel like this? Although it was just a self-respecting army, there was no sign of it before! This Yiliang has been idle for ten years, and there has been no dissatisfaction with the imperial court. Even their Guarjia clan and the Aixin Jueluo family are almost one, which makes them speechless.
Looking left, right, horizontally, and vertically, there is no reason to rebel! Although it is just a self-respecting army, it is no different from a rebellion in their eyes.
"Immediately, arrest and behead all of Yiliang's family. His family is still in the capital, and they are all arrested and beheaded! "Someone shouted.
Not enough Wen Xiang hurriedly said: "Wait!" This time, Yi Hao also continued to deliver 50 percent of the grain and 30 percent of the tax, and if we directly beheaded their families, I am afraid that the 30 percent tax burden and 50 percent of the grain will also be completely cut off. What's more, Yiliang didn't really erect the banner of rebellion, which shows that there is still room for things to turn around. β
"Wen Xiang, did you collude with Yiliang to speak for him here? I see, your Guarga clan is not a good thing, it seems that you are going to rebel? β
But this time it immediately aroused the anger of many people, because the Guerjia clan satisfies several big surnames and has a huge influence within the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and it is the origin of many concubines. Not only does it have a large population, but it also has a lot of political influence, although I don't know why Yiliang has to support his own army when he is brainless this time, but it will not change the status of the Guerjia clan. The Guerjia clan has infiltrated all aspects of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and there is even a large group of people who support them.
"What nonsense are you talking about? I think what Wen Xiang said is right, if Yiliang's family is killed, then we really don't have any room to go around in circles. Our focus now is to figure out why, and why Yiliang is so self-respecting. If we only need to find the reason, then Yiliang may not be able to return to my Great Qing Dynasty. β
This method was immediately approved by many people, and even now many people don't believe that Yiliang, the banner man, or even the banner man of the Guerjia clan, will rebel, which is simply a big joke in the world, and even anyone can rebel, but the Guerjia clan actually rebelled, this is unlikely, right?
There must be something hidden in this that people don't know, they hope to figure out the hidden secret, and then try to prescribe the right medicine, solve these problems for the family, and then win Yiliang back. Under this chaotic situation, the Qing Dynasty had reached a critical juncture, and there were not many people who could be useful within the Manchu Dynasty, and even fewer banner people who could really be used. So it is not impossible to rely on Yiliang at this time.
They still think that it's okay for Yiliang to get it back, and after winning Yiliang back, they can still continue to be stable. They think that Yiliang did this, it was a bitter intention, not really to really rebel. (To be continued.) )
