As far as Yang Xiuqing is concerned, he has never and does not need to accept any selfish interests from Hou Qianfang. Hou Qianfang's firm expression when the Celestial Empire faced danger several times, coupled with his talent for being able to speak well and see the wind and steer, made Yang Xiuqing an abnormal favor for him.
The laws of the Celestial Empire are extremely strict, and they are even more meticulous in their implementation. In addition to the kings of Shouyi, since the establishment of the state in Yong'an, countless officials, large and small, have lost their official positions or lost their lives because of violating the rules of heaven. Clerks are derelict in their duties and greedy for money, and military generals lose their cities and lands, which are all crimes that must be beheaded in the heavenly rules.
However, after all, the times still have to put their due mark on their bodies. The heavenly rules of the Celestial Empire often have weaknesses when it comes to themselves. The kings of Shouyi themselves are outside the Heavenly Rules, and Hong Xiuquan and Yang Xiuqing among them are not only not subject to any constraints from the Heavenly Rules, but their relatives, and even their favored ministers, will naturally enjoy that unique preferential treatment.
The prince is guilty of the same crime as the common people, this slogan has been shouted by many dynasties for many years, can it really be done? The answer is clear to everyone. When they lined up the princes and commoners individually, it was already destined that what they shouted was nothing more than a beautiful high-pitched tone.
In front of Pan Xiaohong's testimony and money of unknown origin, Hou Qianfang pleaded guilty. According to the laws of the Celestial Empire, he has only one death. But Yang Xiuqing can save him. There is love and tolerance for Hou Qianfang, and at the same time, there is also resentment to compete with Hong Xiuquan.
At the beginning, in order to save Hou Qianfang, Yang Xiuqing did not adopt the usual method as before, and directly and blatantly asked Hou Qianfang to come out. He first sent someone to the Ministry of Internal Affairs to try to inform Hou Qianfang to grit his teeth and refuse to admit it. Although the Ministry of Internal Affairs was tightly guarded, the people who went there did not have a chance to talk to Hou Qianfang at all, but when the people from the Eastern Wangfu appeared here at this time, the smart Hou Qianfang would not fail to understand the meaning.
Yang Xiuqing couldn't understand why Hou Qianfang was so stupid this time. Even so, Hou Qianfang's confession did not affect his actions at all, and this time he personally went out and asked for Pan Xiaohong from the Ministry of Justice. After some secret interrogation, Pan Xiaohong really fully admitted that she was sent by Meng Deen to monitor Hou Qianfang's every move, and this was enough.
Now, no matter how stupid Yang Xiuqing is, he also understands what Hong Xiuquan's purpose is. What's more, he's not stupid at all, he's an extremely smart person. He knew that Hong Xiuquan wanted to exchange with him, and he also knew at a deeper level that Hong Xiuquan wanted to verify the power of the edict from the Heavenly King's Mansion again.
Yang Xiuqing's attitude suddenly took a 180-degree turn, he no longer thought about saving Hou Qianfang, and also explicitly ordered Huang Yukun of the Ministry of Law that according to the rules of heaven, Hou Qianfang and his ilk must be severely punished according to the law, and no one's intercession and tolerance are allowed.
Yang Xiuqing is not a god, he is a person, and if he is a human being, he will inevitably have his own likes and dislikes. He felt sorry for Hou Qianfang, but what was even more unbearable was Hong Xiuquan's rebellion. Between suppressing Hong Xiuquan and tolerating Hou Qianfang, he chose the former.
People are like this sometimes, and they will always behave wisely and foolishly. Huang Yukun was extremely dissatisfied with the Dongwang's interference in Hou Qianfang's case at the beginning, and he did everything possible to get Hou Qianfang's confession quickly. Now, when it was his turn to continue his duties, he hesitated again in the face of the Heavenly King's forgiveness edict. Despite the ensuing decree from the King of the East, he still felt embarrassed.
Huang Yukun went to find the Wing King Shi Dakai again. Since the edict of the King of Heaven has been sent to the Ministry of Law, it is Chrysostom Yuyan, the implementation is not good, and it is still not good if it is not executed, and he is afraid that if it continues like this, it will likely lead to disharmony between the King of Heaven and the King of the East.
Shi Dakai listened to Lord Yue's worries and smiled helplessly. However, this time he gave his father-in-law a very happy reply, and he told his father-in-law, don't think so troublesome, who listens to whom. Besides, according to the rules, it is the will of the king of the east that is more important.
Maybe Huang Yukun heard the helplessness in his uncle's words, or maybe he wanted to do things better, but Huang Yukun didn't listen to anyone. Hou Qianfang's case still needs other circumstantial evidence to be scrutinized, and it cannot be decided for the time being. The strategy he used was exactly what the king of the east had said.
Hong Xiuquan was angry, and Yang Xiuqing was also angry. Then there are other things to be angry about, and even that is not just a matter of being angry.
Hong Xiuquan issued the edict five times, and he knew that it might not work, but he still sent it. He is not for anything else, first of all, he wants everyone to know that he, the king of heaven, is still alive, and secondly, he wants to tease Yang Xiuqing, force Yang Xiuqing to get angry, and force Yang Xiuqing to act irrationally impulsively. He arranged for Meng Deen and others to spread the idea that Yang Xiuqing was forced to be crowned "Long live", and privately complained to those who were dissatisfied with the existing new policies that King An would one day abolish the throne.
Of course, he still has his smart side now. He liked to come into contact with Bourblon, the French minister to the Celestial Empire, and often invited Bourblon to sit in the Golden Dragon City and listen to Bourblon talk about the authority of the French emperor. After listening to it, he would relayed it to his surroundings from time to time, showing great envy in his speech. Naturally, he will not only talk about the emperor's demeanor to others, but also about the nobility of others. There are emperors and nobles in France, but people are equally powerful, not as King An and others said, what only when everyone is equal, can the country have a way out. Everyone is fighting and killing desperately, and there should always be something in return, at this time, he seems to have forgotten that "the world is the same" was the first thing he said. People who are engaged in politics always seem to be like this, and sometimes they are very forgetful.
I can't help but say that Hong Xiuquan's set still has some market. There were deposed marquis in Tianjing, and countless officials, who, in the French way, had been, or would have slowly crowded, into the ranks of the "aristocracy", but now, they had no hope.
Hong Xiuquancheng wanted to disturb the government and the opposition, and the chaos could achieve great governance, and he believed this.
So, he adopted a strategy called Yang Xiuqing who would definitely jump up, that is, he asked his second brother Hong Renda to bring his own handwritten edict of appointment, and rushed to Shanghai without saying hello to any department. At the same time, he told him to step up the work of the Guards Brigade stationed in Sun City and Golden Dragon City, and he wanted to control this unit just in case.
Is Hong Xiuquan afraid of Yang Xiuqing? If he was really scared before, he feels much better now. Yang Xiuqing left the Heavenly Father's possession trick, in fact, it was difficult to suppress him anymore. He even fantasized that one day he would simply sit directly in the Golden Dragon Palace, gather the ministers, and take back a qiē power. After calming down and thinking about it carefully, he felt a little hasty again. It's better to take your time and find a better excuse. This best strategy is to turn Yang Xiuqing into a hated person first.
As soon as Hong Renda and his entourage arrived in Shanghai by train, they immediately convened a meeting of officials of all the Shanghai summit organs. In front of the officials, the first thing he did was to take out the edict of the King of Heaven and ask Liu Lichuan and Su Sanniang to distinguish between the true and the false.
Seeing Liu Lichuan and Su Sanniang's silent expressions, Hong Renda smiled proudly.
"I am officially in office, because Shanghai is located at a critical point and is a key area for the development of the Celestial Empire, in order to ensure the stability of Shanghai, now, I will announce another edict of the Heavenly King." Hong Renda received another copy of the king's will from the hands of his entourage, and then looked at Liu Lichuan with a smile, "My brother is the king, Liu Lichuan is a capable talent, I appreciate it very much, so I continue to appoint Liu Lichuan as the deputy mayor of Shanghai Special City." Li Xianchi was appointed as the vice mayor of the Shanghai Special City, replacing Su Sanniang and concurrently serving as the commander of the Shanghai garrison. Su Sanniang temporarily stayed in Shanghai, and there was another appointment ......"
Su Sanniang listened to Hong Renda read the names of the dismissed officials one by one, and wondered what happened in Baijing. At present, the war in Jiangbei is tense, and Shanghai, as a stable rear supply base, cannot afford to have any problems at all, let alone chaos.
"Wait!" Su Sanniang slowly stood up and interrupted Hong Renda's long reading, "Brother Hong, according to the rules, without the orders of the Prime Minister's Office and the Supreme Military Command, no one has the right to change and replace officials at will. ”
"I am the will of the king!" Hong Renda raised the edict in his hand, "The king of heaven is the lord of a country, does the edict of the king of heaven still need to be recognized by others?" ”
"Don't yell at me." Su Sanniang said calmly, "I know that you are the will of the Heavenly King, but you have no right to read it here. I repeat that the edict of the Celestial King can be sent to the Prime Minister's Office and the Supreme Military Command, and they will issue separate orders for specific appointments and dismissals, which is the system of the Celestial Empire. ”
"That's your system!" Hong Renda slammed the table, "You have always despised the King of Heaven and regarded the King of Heaven as child's play. The King of Heaven also has an edict that anyone who dares to resist the decree will be punished as betraying the Celestial Empire. ”
Speaking of this, he waved his hand angrily at the entourage behind him, "Come on, immediately pull this rebellious Su Sanniang out and cut me down!" ”
