Chapter 1002 (5)
On August 28, the fourth year of Chengde, Hongqing, who had been sick at home for many days, was finally "cured of his illness", first went to the court to face the saint, and then immediately took the edict to the nine 'gates' Admiral Ya' 'gate', sent people to the criminal department to mobilize all kinds of tricks and arrests, and began the trial of the case in an orderly manner. Confused, not only the whereabouts of Geng Rong and others are still unknown, but the motive of the case has not yet been clarified, this strange case seems to have a tendency to become a headless public case, and the 'chaos' discussion between the government and the opposition will inevitably arise, but Hongqing does not seem to be in a hurry at all, although he must go to the nine 'gates' to sit in the 'gate' every day, but most of the time is still 'spent' on the railway layout planned by the Ministry of Industry. I don't know what kind of 'medicine' is sold in Hongqing's gourd. , the latest chapter access:.
Hongqing is not in a hurry, but someone is in a hurry, of course this person is Emperor Chengde, no side, with the trial of the case, the truth of the Wuyi Lane case actually spread far and wide, and the Jingshi is coaxing the rumors that the reason why Wuyi Lane was burned was that the third elder brother was ordered by Emperor Chengde, in order to frame Geng Sanbiao, in order to cut off Hongqing's arm. As soon as these "rumors" came out, the whole Jingshi was in an uproar, although no one had ever explicitly denounced Emperor Chengde's wrongdoing, but under the public mouth, Emperor Chengde's reputation was obviously stinky.
The reputation is greatly damaged, and Emperor Chengde, who has always cherished the feathers, can't help but be angry, but this is not the fundamental reason why Emperor Chengde is in a hurry, he is worried about only one thing, that is, he is afraid that Hongqing will take advantage of this momentum to launch a 'forced' palace, if this is the case, Emperor Chengde is unable to resist at all, and he is anxious to be angry, and in just ten days, he is stunned as if he is a few years old. The spirit and spirit have shown a decadence that is difficult to hide, but they are worried that they will anger Hongqing, even if they are anxious, they dare not issue an edict to reprimand Hongqing's delay in the trial, so they can only hide in the palace and lose their temper, so the big and small eunuchs who have suffered do not know how many, no, today for some reason, the evil fire of Emperor Chengde broke out again, and the two little eunuchs who accidentally touched the moldy head were stunned and beaten hard outside the "door" of the Qianqing Palace, and the miserable howl was really terrible.
"Your Majesty, Prince Ren is asking to see you outside the palace 'gate'."
Listening to the terrible howl coming from outside the hall, Li Dequan, who walked up the hall cautiously, couldn't help but feel a little numb, but he was panicked, but he didn't dare to miss the business, but when he saw that he walked a few steps quickly, he grabbed the front of the palace, bowed down, and said a sentence with a few trembling voices.
"Xuan!"
Although he had vented the anger in his heart to the two unlucky little eunuchs, Emperor Chengde's mood was still very irritable, and he was pacing back and forth on the front pier with his hands behind his back, but as soon as he heard Hongqing's request to see, Emperor Chengde's body trembled involuntarily, and suddenly stopped, and his face changed from red to white for a while, and then he waved his hand, and his voice was cold and cold.
"Wow!"
Li Dequan waited tremblingly for a long time, and finally waited for the will of Emperor Chengde, even if the tense heartstrings were loosened, he didn't dare to delay it slightly, and hurriedly responded, and hurriedly withdrew from the main hall.
"The retainer knocks on the emperor Amma."
Hongqing is still as modest as ever, even if the two tortured little eunuchs outside the Qianqing Palace are crying miserably, he seems to have never heard of it, and hurriedly rushed to the front of the palace, meticulously paying homage with a big gift.
"Excuse me."
These days, Emperor Chengde has cursed Hongqing behind his back, but when Hongqing came to see him in person, Emperor Chengde did not dare to express his displeasure and impatience, and even squeezed out a few far-fetched smiles, raised his hand, and called out kindly.
"Thank you Emperor Amalonen, long live my emperor, long live, long live."
Although the battle between father and son has almost reached the point where water and fire are intolerable, but the face of the heavenly family cannot be lost, even if the heart is already dissatisfied with Emperor Chengde, but the number of courtesies that should be done, Hongqing will never be missing.
"It's been hard work these days, I'm really sorry not to go, but the case is complicated, and I only have Qing'er to rely on, now, since you come to see me, presumably there should be a breakthrough in the case?"
Emperor Chengde was worried about the strange situation in his heart, but he was unintentionally said those greetings that had no nutrition to speak of, and this opening was asked to the point, although he did not say it explicitly, but the tentative words clearly expressed his hope that the case would be closed as soon as possible.
"Back to Emperor Ama's words, there has indeed been a slight progress, and it has been investigated that this case may be related to the White Lotus Sect."
Emperor Chengde's mind is so obvious, with Hongqing's IQ, how can he not hear it, but no, but he doesn't care, no side, today Hongqing is here to have a showdown with Emperor Chengde, as for the final result, it depends on whether Emperor Chengde knows whether he is interested, because of this, Hongqing is not in a hurry to show the hole cards, but vaguely gave a vague answer.
"Oh? Seriously? ”
Emperor Chengde is not a dull person, just listened, he had vaguely guessed the possibility of compromise behind Hongqing's words, and he couldn't help but be happy in his heart, and hurriedly asked a question.
"Huang Ama Mingjian, this matter has not been confirmed, but there are just some clues, what Erchen is here to play is not the case, but the Academy of Sciences has a charter related to steam locomotives, Erchen thinks it is quite feasible, but the stakes are very high, Erchen does not dare to make decisions without authorization, and ask Huang Ama to judge it."
Hongqing could understand Emperor Chengde's intention to close the case as soon as possible, but he didn't intend to easily follow his intentions, and in the face of his questioning, he only explained a few words vaguely, and then changed the topic.
"Hmm...... hand it over."
Hearing Hongqing's words, Emperor Chengde's face couldn't help but stiffen, but he didn't dare to 'force' Hongqing too much at this time, and after he grew out of his mouth, he could only wave his hand and command in a slightly cold voice.
"Wow!"
Since Emperor Chengde had an order, Li Dequan, who was waiting on the side, did not dare to be careless, hurriedly and respectfully responded, walked to Hongqing's side, took the notebook he was holding high, and hurriedly walked to the front and handed the notebook to the front of the palace.
"Well...... this charter is well drafted, but the investment is too much, although the treasury has a slight surplus, but it is still necessary to keep a surplus of grain in case of emergency, if it is used too much, I am afraid that it will hurt the country's capital, according to my opinion, it will be discussed later, what does Qing'er think?"
This chapter is not a complete version of the layout of the railway, but only deals with two experiments. The construction of the railway (one is from Beijing to Tianjin Port, the other is from Beijing to Qingdao, Shandong) and the steam locomotive factory plus two new steel plants, the overall scale is not large, but the investment required is a lot, the sum of the three is as high as 35 million taels of silver, the construction period is three years, for the current Qing treasury, although it is far from a heavy burden, but it is also a huge expense, in this regard, Emperor Chengde is a little reluctant, and second, he also wants to bargain with Hongqing on this matter, since it is impossible to readily approve Hongqing's request。
"Emperor Ama Mingjian, the son thinks that although the investment in this charter is not small, but in the future of my Qing Dynasty, it is very important, these two railways themselves are just an attempt to test the 'sex', even so, once completed, the grain transported to Tianjin Port can be directly sent to Beijing by train, not to mention the fast transshipment, but also can save a lot of transportation costs. The Eight Banners Fleet's gains can also go directly to Beijing, and counting the convenience of passenger and freight transportation, it is not difficult to recover the construction cost in a few years, and it can lay the foundation for the future promotion of the railway. ”
Although today, Hongqing has already grasped the general trend of the court, whether or not Emperor Chengde's permission is not in the way of Hongqing's forcible promotion of the railway plan, but Hongqing does not intend to act so toughly, there is nothing else, Hongqing wants to see if Emperor Chengde has the possibility of saving, if Emperor Chengde can understand the general situation, Hongqing is not in a hurry to make ' The move of forcing the palace, even if it does not take into account the smooth continuation of the regime, it must also take into account the face of the heavenly family, of course, if Hongqing has already made a detailed explanation, if Emperor Chengde still has to play a very 'yin' scheme, then Hongqing will no longer be polite to Emperor Chengde.
"Well...... what Qing'er said is quite reasonable, and I agree with it, but the matter is very high, and I am not good at acting arbitrarily, and let the courtiers discuss it, if all the ministers have no objections, I am happy to see it come to fruition."
Although Hongqing's words were said peacefully, but the inside was full of insistence, Emperor Chengde was very dissatisfied, but he didn't dare to forcibly refuse, and after frowning slightly and groaning for a while, he gave a rather reluctant promise.
"Emperor Ama Shengming."
Although Emperor Chengde's reply was quite reluctant, Hongqing did not 'force' it tightly, as long as Emperor Chengde did not oppose it strongly, it was enough for Hongqing.
"Well, this matter will be over the next time the court is discussed, however, the case of the Nine 'Gates' Admiral Ya 'Gate' cannot be delayed any longer, according to Qing'er's opinion, how long will it take to conclude this case?"
Emperor Chengde is not concerned about the so-called railway promotion plan at this time, in his opinion, it does not matter whether the railway is useful or not, at least it has little to do with the stability of the emperor's throne, even if all the investment is wasted, in terms of the strong economic strength of the Qing Dynasty at this time, it is not very important, what he cares about is whether Hongqing is willing to stop there.
"If you return to the emperor Ama, the sons should do their best, and as for the time limit, the sons dare not say anything, maybe it will be clear in three or two days."
Since Emperor Chengde can be interesting, Hongqing will not be too tight to 'force' him, but he didn't say anything to death, but just gave a vague answer.
"Well, Qing'er, hold on to yourself, I'm a little tired, so I'll be tired."
Emperor Chengde stared at Hongqing for a long time, and saw that Hongqing had no intention of changing his words, and he couldn't help but feel a little stupid in his heart, but he didn't dare to further 'force' Hongqing to express his position, so he could only wave his hand and give an order to expel the guest. "Emperor Ama Shengming, the sons and ministers retire." Hearing Emperor Chengde's words, Hongqing didn't want to say more, and after respectfully praising him, he withdrew from the Qianqing Palace and went back to his house by himself......--5aahhh+25897574-->
