Chapter 807: Second Bargaining

After the establishment of the Great Qian Empire, it still adopted a high degree of centralization, and in the early period of the Great Qian Dynasty, the power of the local governors was not very large, but the Shengping Heavenly War that broke out later swept away and smashed the corrupt Eight Troops and the Youth Brigade Soldiers, the military pillars that maintained the rule of the Great Qian Dynasty, forcing the Great Qian Imperial Court to rely on the local armed forces. A situation of arrogance and arrogance of local governors has been formed.

And Cen Yuying, who provoked the Vietnam incident, is one of the representative figures of this kind of local governor.

Cen Yuying, who is known as "acting harshly and being independent", is not the first time that she has acted without permission regardless of the consequences.

The last "Dian Case" (i.e., the "Margaret Incident") was one of his "masterpieces", and although the tension between the two countries was finally resolved by Lin Yizhe and Guo Yunxian by peaceful means, the Qianguo still paid a huge price for the "opening of the new five-port trade."

As for the history and political situation of the Qianguo, Yoko Shimazu, who has lived in the Qianguo for many years, is very clear, and immediately pointed out the real reason for the anger of the Empress Dowager Renxi at today's court meeting.

Lin Yiqing personally experienced the court meeting, of course, he saw this very clearly, but when he came back and talked to Shimazu Yoko about the situation of the court meeting, Shimazu Yoko was able to understand everything immediately, and Lin Yiqing did not have this ability.

"Then Yoko, if the Queen Mother asks me how to handle the affairs of Vietnam, how should I answer?" Lin Yiqing asked. Empress Dowager Renxi's glance before leaving after the end of the court, he already had some premonitions.

"You have to point out to the Empress Dowager that the real reason for the Franco-Vietnamese army formation is who provoked this matter." Yoko Shimazu smiled and said, "That's the point. As for how to solve the Vietnam issue, the Queen Mother should have agreed with Lord Guo's disposition in her heart, but our plan is better than Lord Guo's, so you can also ask the Queen Mother to say Lord Guo's method, and you can add a little more, and that's fine. To make the Queen Mother feel that she took the idea herself. You're just playing a point-to-point role. Remember, remember. ”

"You are here to understand the psychology of the Queen Mother." Lin Yiqing admired her.

He has now discovered that if he continues like this, there are many thorny problems, and he can actually let this "female Zhuge of the Shimazu family" think about it and help him make up his mind.

"What I don't understand now is why Prince Jing wants to hide the truth, and he can't be ignorant of what the Southwest Governor did." Yoko Shimazu said. "It's not what he justifies himself."

"I also wonder why he did it." Lin Yiqing frowned, "Who is deceiving whom, it's really hard to say now." ”

"If my guess is correct, the Empress Dowager will leave this trouble to you," Yoko Shimazu winked at Lin Yiqing and said again, "But." You'd better pretend to be bargaining with the Queen Mother, which is more beneficial to your future future. ”

"Then what am I going to bargain with the Queen Mother?" Lin Yiqing asked curiously.

"That's whatever. It's nothing more than to reassure her that you have a plan for her, not some saint and gentleman who is dedicated to the country. Yoko Shimazu covered her mouth and smiled, "Since ancient times, there are still few examples of Middle-earth 'defilement' for officials to protect themselves?" You don't know all of them, do you? ”

"Yes." Lin Yi smiled and nodded.

With her strong reminders, he already knew what to do.

It's just that she can't think of it now. I want to bargain with the Queen Mother for something.

As Lin Yiqing expected, early the next morning, the eunuch in the palace came to the military department, found Lin Yiqing, and asked Lin Yiqing to enter the garden immediately to meet him.

Lin Yiqing got on the train. While looking at the scenery on the road, he thought about the plan to deal with Vietnam that he told the Empress Dowager Renxi.

The difference between his plan and Guo Yunxian's suggestion was to actually carve up Vietnam with France, while keeping the kingdom of Vietnam, giving the Qingliu a good impression of "small survival", so as to reduce his resistance to future actions.

As he was thinking, he noticed that the train was moving in a different route than before, because there were more sights than he had seen before.

"Dare to ask this little brother, where is this train going?" Lin Yiqing called the eunuch who announced the decree and asked with a smile, "Aren't we going to meet the Queen Mother?" ”

"Yo, Master Lin, look at my mouth, I didn't explain it to you." This time it was a young eunuch who came to announce the decree, and he said a little embarrassedly, "It was the Queen Mother who ordered you to meet you, but what we are going to go to today is the Jixi Hall where the Queen Mother and Queen Mother live, and the Queen Mother and the Queen Mother want to see you together." ”

Hearing that the two queen mothers summoned him together, Lin Yiqing couldn't help but be slightly stunned.

The Empress Dowager Rentai usually doesn't come forward easily, what's going on this time?

"Master Lin doesn't have to think about it, the two queen mothers are summoned in Jixi Hall this time, and their grace is very different from the past, there are only benefits, and there will be no side things." Seeing the slight change in the expression on Lin Yiqing's face, the eunuch Xuanzhi said with a smile, "Manager Li asked us all to help Master Lin a little bit, you can rest assured!" ”

Listening to his words, Lin Yiqing understood that Li Jintai had made arrangements and was relieved.

After a short time, the small train drove to Jixi Hall.

Jixi Hall is located in Qichun Garden, and it is not the first time that Lin Yiqing has come here.

There is a small courtyard after entering the park from the Yinghui Gate, and when you go to the left through the small courtyard, you will see a pool of green lake. The lotus flowers in the lake are continuous, and the willows on the shore of the lake are in rows. The pavilions and water pavilions, the flowers are splendid, and it is completely a scene of a water town in the south of the Yangtze River.

There is a main road on the east bank of the lake, go forward along the main road, there is a crescent moon river behind the big palace gate, there is a white marble stone bridge in the river, the stone bridge is five halls through the hall, the specifications are slightly smaller than the Yinghui gate, commonly known as the "two palace gates". There is a corner gate on both sides of the second palace gate, and the same as the big palace gate are all for the princes and ministers and eunuchs, miscellaneous people to enter and exit.

The location of the small courtyard behind the Yinghui Gate is the main hall of the emperor in the Qichun Garden. Jiaqing was called "Qinzheng Palace", after Emperor Shaoguang ascended the throne, it was renamed "Yinghui Palace" and the plaque of the imperial book was hung under the eaves of the main hall.

Yinghui Hall is five bays, surrounded by a corridor, there is a platform in front of the hall, and there is a throne in the hall. During the Shaoguang period, every time the Queen Mother had a birthday. The Empress Dowager moved to Qichun Garden, where she received congratulations from the ministers and concubines. There are seven apsees behind the Yinghui Palace, and the outer eaves hang the Jiaqing royal pen "Zhonghe Hall" plaque. This hall has the east and west corridor and Yinghui Hall communicates, is the place where the Queen Mother rests when accepting the court, and there is a phoenix bed for the Queen Mother to rest in the Zhonghe Hall. Behind the palace is Shoushan, after Shoushan you can enter the queen mother's bedroom.

The north of the Yinghui Hall is the Fuchun Hall. It is the central landscape in the palace gate of Qichun Garden, which is divided into three parts: West Road, Middle Road and East Road. It is 200 meters long from north to south and 270 meters wide from east to west, covering an area of 52,600 square meters. It is the largest group of buildings in Qichun Garden.

Passing through Shoushan in the northernmost part of the new palace gate area of Qichun Garden, the first thing you see is the three palace gates, commonly known as the inner palace gates. After entering the inner palace door, the first thing that catches your eye is the front hall of five, the outer eaves hang Jiaqing royal pen "Jixi Hall", Jixi Hall is actually a hall through the hall, there are three rooms in front of the palace in the east and west. It is also through the hall, out of the west court room can go to the west road garden, out of the east court room can lead to the east road halls.

After passing through the Jixi Hall, you will come to the main hall of Shikiharu Hall. Fuchun Hall was built in the Jiaqing period, and was originally the bedroom of the Jiaqing Emperor. It is also the largest emperor's dormitory in Qichun Garden. Fuchun Hall is an I-shaped hall with five rooms before and after, there are treasure beds in the front hall and the apse between the bright room and the east tip, the hall is also equipped with a fire kang in the late Shaoguang Dynasty, the front hall and the apse have immortal towers.

The front and back halls of Fukiharu Hall have verandahs leading to the north and west gardens. The western gardens from south to north are the Chung Yu Xuan, the Jing Green Pavilion, the Wei Zao Hall and the Zhan Dai Pavilion. Among them, the scenery of the Azamo Hall is the most beautiful, and it is built on a high rockery. There is a climbing verandah on the east side of the rockery and is connected with the apse of the Fuchun Hall. There is a throne bed in the hall of the seaweed, which is held on the 15th day of the eighth month of the old calendar. The Queen Mother admires the moon here. There are five two-storey buildings in the north of the Fuchun Hall, and the outer eaves of the upper floor hang the plaque of the imperial book of Emperor Jiaqing "Wenyue Building". There is a green mountain stone cover wall in front of the building, and there is a waterfront wharf behind the building, and the boat can lead to other scenic spots of Qichun Garden from the wharf. There is a throne bed downstairs, and there are corridors upstairs and downstairs, and you can enjoy the entire Fuchun Hall from upstairs. Fuchuntang East Road is a dormitory for concubines and concubines. It includes the west residence, the east residence and the southwest residence. Fuchun Hall is connected with the palace gate of each group of buildings on the East Road, which is called the East Palace Gate. The east palace gate is three gates, the eaves hang the plaque "Cuiyun Chongai", the north side of the door is the east two, the west two, and the south side of the door is the southwest. The architectural form of the East and West Institutes is exactly the same. Symmetrical from east to west, with six rows in front and back. The first row is the gate hall, a total of nine rooms, for the chief eunuch to live. The second row of halls is a five-room hall. The second row of the west two houses is the Buddhist hall and the storehouse, while the east two houses are the palace maids. The third and fourth floors are the main halls, each with five rooms. The fifth floor is seven rooms, and the houses are occupied by some nobles, permanent presence, promises, and other low-level palace dependents, and the last row is the treasury. The southeast office is located in the south of the east and west two places, and the southwest is connected with the east side hall of the Jixi Hall. The southeast office consists of six compounds with a total of sixty or seventy houses. The main residents are also some concubines, often lower level concubines, and there are some palace maids who live with them. In these groups of courtyards, there are also longevity dining rooms and longevity pharmacies serving the queen mother.

When the British and French forces burned down the Old Summer Palace in the tenth year of Xianfeng, most of the concubines and palace maids here did not flee to Rehe with Emperor Xianfeng, and the army guarding the garden had already fled at that time, so it was completely unmanaged. Some people fled, while others were frightened to death by sudden events, such as Emperor Shaoguang's concubine who lived in the middle of the southeast. After his death, the body was also left unattended, and finally burned down with the southeast office, and the British and French troops retreated, and only then did the charred body be temporarily stored in Jingxi Tian Village, and then buried in the Xiling Underground Palace.

After the Fuchun Hall was burned down by the British and French forces, there are still some buildings still existing, and Tongzhi restored this place as one of the retreats of the Empress Dowager Rentai in the 12th year, so the Fuchun Hall was changed to the current magnificent four-volume hall.

Because the status of the Empress Dowager Rentai is higher than that of the Empress Dowager Renxi, it is their place of residence in this royal garden that deliberately shows this difference, although the scenery here is also very beautiful, but compared with the picturesque and fresh and elegant "Yongqing Changchun" where the Empress Dowager Renxi lives, the main buildings have more of a sense of royal majesty.

Empress Dowager Rentai and Empress Dowager Renxi met Lin Yiqing together in Fuchun Hall,

Cen Yuying's secret recital to the imperial court reads: "Yue official Liu Renyi has been based in Shanxi, Xinghua, and Xuanguang for more than ten years, and the officials and people there know Liu Renyi, but they don't know that there is a king of Vietnam. Liu Renyi had annihilated the general in previous years, and his clan was very anxious to reward and buy. Liu Renyi was not only afraid that the army would be captured by the legal person, but also worried about attacking the legal person and the Yunnan and Guangdong official armies would follow him, so he wanted to do his best to defend Xinghua and other provinces. Contribute to China and North Korea in order to achieve self-improvement. …… Now that we are planning as a whole, it is advisable for our army to distribute the key points in northern Vietnam, and secretly fund Liu Renyi to use military salaries and equipment to make it stick to it and reject legal persons. Liu's troops are very good. The location is very familiar, the shape of the host and guest is convenient, the situation of work and rest is different, the legal person does not dare to land on the shore and the angle of strength, Liu is not merged, and Vietnam is prolonged. ”
