Lin Haifeng went to the Heavenly King Hong Xiuquan to report to him first, and then went to the East Palace.
The streets of Tenkyo have been renovated and wrapped in colorful ribbons, as if they were going to celebrate the New Year. Along the way, Lin Haifeng didn't see any official sedan chairs, but he saw a running carriage. When the first carriage he saw stopped in front of him, it was Chen Chengrong, the Marquis of Xingguo, who came down from the Ministry of Governance.
Chen Chengrong bowed down and greeted the dust servant King An, and smiled hehehe, "Your Highness has worked hard all the way. ”
Lin Haifeng looked at the pedestrians passing on both sides of the street, although they were walking cautiously on the side, and some were still leaning on the roots of the house, looking at them timidly, but obviously they had no intention of kneeling. Lin Haifeng smiled with satisfaction. He knew that Yang Xiuqing, in order to welcome the French minister who would come tomorrow, and in order to show the difference between the Celestial Empire and the Manchu Qing Dynasty in front of Bourblon, Yang Xiuqing had issued an edict to cancel the etiquette of kneeling outdoors to worship the princes and officials.
"How does Chen Hou feel that this carriage is compared to the previous official sedan chair?" Lin Haifeng circled around Chen Chengrong's carriage and asked with a smile.
"Yes, yes." Chen Chengrong nodded again and again, pointed to a few swordsmen and attachés next to him, and laughed, "Your Highness, look, if you travel in the past, the honor guard is cumbersome, not to mention the number of horses in this guard attaché alone. Now as long as this four-wheeled carriage pulled by a horse, a few of us are enough. And it's fast. ”
"That's a good point!" Lin Haifeng suddenly noticed that there was a horse manure pocket hanging behind the horse's buttocks, "Hehe, who came up with a good idea for this thing?" ”
"It's Fu Shanxiang," Chen Chengrong smiled, "Miss Fu is careful, saying that this can save the horse manure abandoned everywhere in the city, which can not only help farmers accumulate fertilizer, but also keep the streets clean and tidy, killing two birds with one stone." ”
Lin Haifeng laughed out loud. I designed the carriage myself, but I ignored this "little problem".
As soon as Yang Xiuqing saw Lin Haifeng, it was as if she had seen a friend she hadn't seen for many years, and that intimacy was mentioned. Hush Han asked for warmth, just what I wanted to say, I am afraid that I will not be able to finish it for a few days and nights. He already clearly felt that both the Celestial Empire and himself were a little inseparable from this guy.
"My brother's practices in Zhenjiang and Yangzhou are good." Yang Xiuqing admired, "The people who have been displaced are gradually turning around, this is good, the people are the foundation of the country, if the people run out, it is called failure." ”
"It's still Brother Wang's Shengming, without Brother Wang's support, the younger brother can't do anything." Lin Haifeng smiled humbly.
"Hehe, brother, don't be modest." Yang Xiuqing was said by Lin Haifeng to be beautiful in her heart. It's not strange for you to say that I usually boast about myself a lot in my ears, but I don't like Lin Haifeng's words as much. "That Huang Zilong killed it well, and in the end, he was able to copy 40,000 or 50,000 taels of silver from his mansion, which is really unimaginable. At the beginning, this Zhenjiang was the most resolute place to implement the holy library system and the male and female separate library system. ”
"What people are most afraid of is selfishness!" Lin Haifeng sighed, "As long as selfish desires have a beginning, it is a ravine that can never be filled." ”
"Have you been to the Heavenly King?" Yang Xiuqing asked. Seeing Lin Haifeng nodding, he said again, "There are many people who oppose the distribution of land to farmers as private property." ”
"Yes, after all, most of the old brothers who came out of Guangxi destroyed all their family business and followed the heavenly army. Now that they have nothing, it is inevitable that they will not have any thoughts when they see that others have private property. Lin Haifeng took a cup of cold boiled water specially prepared for him by Fu Shanxiang who came in and took a sip. Sweet, apparently with sugar in it. He smiled gratefully at Fu Shanxiang, "It seems that the Heavenly King is not very opposed to this?" ”
"Really?" Yang Xiuqing tilted her head to look at him and smiled.
"It feels like yes." Lin Haifeng took a few more sips of sugar water and put down the cup in his hand.
"It's not that simple," Yang Xiuqing looked at Fu Shanxiang, "Since there is opposition, of course the Heavenly King wants you to continue to do it." I'm talking about it, Shanxiang, right? ”
Fu Shanxiang pursed his lips and smiled, "You said yes, of course it is." ”
"Haha" Yang Xiu laughed heartily, looking at Lin Haifeng, who looked indifferent, "There is one more thing, my brother wants to inform my brother." ”
Then, he talked about the edict written to him by the King of Heaven, asking Chen Yu to become the prime minister of the reward, and also to promote the official positions of some officers of the teaching brigade such as Tan Shaoguang. In the end, he slammed his hand, "In order to save my brother from trouble, the edict of the Heavenly King has been suppressed by my brother, and I have found Chen Yucheng and others, and I have also talked to the Heavenly King." As for the establishment and rank of the Red Army, since there was a clear agreement in advance, there should be no arbitrary intervention in changing it. This can easily cause the following misunderstanding. ”
Lin Haifeng smiled and nodded. In fact, he had already learned more or less about the general situation of these things through the channels of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, which Guò presided over himself. But he was still grateful to Yang Xiuqing in his heart, Yang Xiuqing was hinting that he should be careful of the activities of the Heavenly King Hong Xiuquan behind his back.
"Okay, let's not talk about this." Yang Xiuqing smiled, "According to my brother's meaning, my brother has done most of the things that should be done." Tomorrow to receive that Bourblon, what else needs to be considered, brother think about it again, there must be no jokes like the reception of Wen Han at the beginning of the year. ”
Lin Haifeng smiled, "Brother Wang has already thought about it very thoughtfully, this Burbulon will have a new impression of the Celestial Empire." ”
Bourblon and his entourage were warmly welcomed in Tianjing. From the wharf to the Anwangfu, under the escort of more than 200 Jinyi horse teams, on both sides of the street where the long convoy passed, there were organized welcoming crowds of Tianjing people.
Bulblon, who sat side by side with Lin Haifeng in the first open-top carriage, was deeply moved by the neat and beautiful streets and the polite and joyful crowd he saw along the way. He looked at the two flags of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom and the French National Kingdom hoisting in the wind on both sides of the carriage, and listened to the heartfelt "Long live the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom!" from the bottom of the crowd. And "Long live the country of France!" I can't help but wonder how Wen Han, the British plenipotentiary envoy at the time, could have such an irresponsible evaluation of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom regime.
Here, it is clearly a harmonious, civilized world, a vibrant world. This is completely different from the world ruled by the Manchu regime that he is used to.
