In the Forbidden City's Heart Cultivation Palace, Yongzheng's roar almost collapsed the roof. (Baidu search to win phone bills,)

"I want to deal with anything, I am the first faint king of this Qing Dynasty!"

On the bookcase was an open letter, densely packed with thousands of words, which was the North-South Peace Treaty sent by the Nanban to the imperial court.

Yongzheng roared, and the ministers were wooden.

The news of the war in Jiangnan is extremely mixed, and everyone can't understand what the specific situation is. But Nanban used Shunfeng Express to directly hand over such a peace letter to the Yamen of the General Administration Department of the capital, and many rumors were finally confirmed.

Marseille was defeated in Jiangnan, and was beaten by a few thousand Nanban soldiers to lose his armor, and the Nanban destroyed Songjiang City, slaughtering tens of thousands of people, and the situation of the Qing Dynasty attacking Jiangnan was staged again, but the Qing Dynasty became the defender who was about to be defeated.

Now that Nanban has pressed a peace letter, the details of the piles mentioned in it are like knives, cutting the hearts of the courtiers and bleeding for a long time. Is this a peace agreement? This is to force one's own family to surrender the book! It's even more than a book!

Almost everyone's first reaction was that it was better to fight with Nanban! Although he knew that he would definitely lose, he was defeated and lost Jiangnan, which was better than such a sticky Rong Nanman and himself in Jiangnan, at least he kept face.

The blood is up instantly, and it almost fades in an instant, and if you lose again, I'm afraid it's not just about losing Jiangnan......

Therefore, the courtiers are all indifferent, such a choice is not something they can decide at will, and they can't even speak. It is related to the Qing Dynasty, and when you open your mouth, you decide which side your ass will sit on, and before the emperor shows his ass, this is a great gamble.

"Fu Ning'an! You go to Guanwai, go to Mongolia! Summons the new Manchuria and Mongolian ministries! ”

"Chong'an! Mention the firearms army of the Xishan camp and prepare for the army to go south! ”

"Du Yeli is the envoy of Luan! I want to ......"

Yongzheng's voice was categorical, shaking the courtiers.

"The Imperial Expedition!"

These four words were spit out, and the lethality was too great, and even Wang Yicheng, the chief eunuch beside Yongzheng, softened his knees and sat on the ground with his ass.

Royal Driver's Expedition...... How did the first emperor Kangxi die? Do you want to pro-enlist? The Qing Dynasty really wants to be tied to the First World War again?

There was silence for a moment, and a cry erupted in the hall.

"The emperor can't go up!"

"Can't be in person!"

"I can't fight, I can't fight anymore!"

A group of clan princes, including the Manchu ministers, couldn't stand it anymore, and threw themselves on the ground and kowtowed and shouted.

Jiangnan is indeed the lifeblood of the Qing Dynasty, but the root of the Qing Dynasty is Manchu and Manchu. Now it is not only necessary to move the Xishan Firearms Army, which is theoretically the only one in the Qing Dynasty that can fight with the Southern Barbarians, but also to move the new Manchurian departments, plus the Mongolian departments, I have never seen such a loser. Even the former emperor Kangxi did not dare to take such a risk.

Seeing everyone kowtowing on the ground like pounding garlic, Yongzheng shouted in his mouth: "I have made up my mind!" Don't say more", but the corners of his mouth showed a hint of relief.

He had already seen this peace letter, and there was more than one copy. Li Xi sent one through Ru Xi, and one through Li Xu. The head of the Nanban Jiangnan camp also gave Li Wei a copy, and Li Wei passed it on. Now this one is what he did according to Li Shi's suggestion, escorting Nanban's Shunfeng Express, and delivering it to Beijing in a civil way, so that the entire court can know about this peace letter.

How could Yongzheng still want to fight? In that place in the south of the Yangtze River, the rivers are dense, and it is close to the sea, what do you use to fight with the Nanban? Earlier, he had some expectations for Marseille to go to Jiangnan, wanting to see if the military gap between the north and the south had become smaller after the past few years. But unfortunately, judging from the actual situation on the battlefield reported by Li Weibao, the gap between the two sides is even greater.

The Southern Barbarian soldiers, who were less than 5,000, fought back and forth near Longmen, and even hit Songjiang, whether it was the Jiangnan Green Battalion, the Jiangnan People's Army, or the Jiangxi soldiers supported by Tian Wenjing in the past, they did not dull this Southern Barbarian Army. It is said that the battle of Fengxian was their most difficult battle, it took two days to capture, and two or three hundred people were killed and wounded.

If this is a bloody war, the officers and soldiers of the Qing Dynasty can also be called a bloody war when they go to suppress the scattered bandits in the countryside......

Marseille's attempt in Jiangnan was expected by Yongzheng, and when this peace treaty was sent, things returned to square one. The earliest proposal made in this way has become the national policy pursued by Yongzheng. Time...... The Great Qing Dynasty now needs time. Three or five years is not long, and ten years is not short. ..., now Yongzheng is in the camp in Xishan, secretly using Spanish instructors to train the firearms army, and also using the Spaniards to build new guns in the Jingshan Artillery Factory, it is estimated that there will be another two or three years, relying on this new army, it will have the ability to defend itself in the river. And if you want to counterattack, you have to exert strength within the Nanban.

At least five years, Yongzheng has set such a timetable for himself.

Within five years, the Qing Dynasty and the Nanban must not fight to the death, and even he has already made up his mind, even if the Nanban occupies Jiangnan, he still can't fight to the death, and he can overcome the rigidity with softness......

It would be great if he could keep the money and grain in Jiangnan in the past five years, so the peace treaty passed by Li Shi made him very satisfied, except for the fact that the area was too large.

But Yongzheng, as the emperor of the Qing Dynasty, made this kind of alliance with the south under the city, not only losing his face, but also losing the face of the court, he had to roar in the Palace of Cultivating Hearts, to throw this face out, let the courtiers carry it.

And the biggest concern is still Manchurian, if the princes and clans still do not give up, even if Yongzheng has great determination, it will be difficult to wield a knife to cut the chair leg of his dragon chair.

Now it seems that the Manchurian side has seen the situation clearly, Jiangnan is a bottomless pit, and it is time to think about how to stop the loss.

The Manchurians have passed this level, but what about the Han people? Of course, Yongzheng will not treat it as a level, but needs them to build a ladder.

On the one hand, Zhang Tingyu was confused, Yongzheng's wistful attitude just now made him faintly see the demeanor of the former emperor Kangxi again, this father and son, it is really similar in many places. The rebellion in Yongzheng Guangdong, as well as the seizure of the capital by the capital, just like the Kangxi Aobai and the Ping San Domain, were stunned and started to do it. And now weighing state affairs, like Kangxi in his later years, attaches great importance to face and has a lot of scruples about acting.

But there are still differences, Yongzheng...... Dare to do things that Kangxi does not dare to do, such as cannibalism......

Zhang Tingyu's mind was pulled back by Yongzheng's cold eyes, and he realized that it was time for him to come to power, he coughed and said: "The Son of Heaven does not raise troops because of anger, Your Majesty is cautious!" ”

O minister, how noble the wind and bones! The Hanchens who didn't know what was going on secretly gave a thumbs up, and even the clan and the Manchu ministers breathed a sigh of relief, praising this Zhang Tingyu for his courage.

Yongzheng got up suddenly, kicked down the bookcase, and was about to pull out the knife of the guards around him, Wang Yicheng hurriedly hugged Yongzheng's legs, Zhang Tingyu held his chest high, and other Hanchen also shouted one after another, helping Zhang Tingyu intercede, and made a lot of trouble.

Zhang Tingyu said: "The peace treaty of Nanban is close to the book of forced landing, and it must not be established!" ”

Except for Yongzheng, everyone said that this position is good! We must not lose this face, but ...... Nanban didn't agree, and he still wanted to fight, so what should I do?

"Aren't the imperial court and Nanban discussing the extension of Yangzhou Hushu Pass? Based on this matter, the Jiangnan commercial port was opened and the north and south were allowed to travel freely, so as to benefit the livelihood of the common people in the world and the prosperity of all industries. And our Qing Dynasty and the Southern Barbarians made a truce between the north and the south, and turned the war into a jade silk. ”

Zhang Tingyu's words contain two meanings, one is to honor the peace treaty handed by Nanban in another way, and describe it in another language. The words "free travel between the north and the south" actually encompass all the conditions required by the Nanban, and it sounds like the Qing Dynasty is still benevolent to Yinghua and works for the benefit of the people, at least the two sides are equal and mutually beneficial.

The second layer means the key, without this layer, the previous layer has no foundation. This is to say that the armistice between the north and the south is an armistice, and the Qing Dynasty recognizes the Southern Barbarians, and this China has been divided between the two countries, and the Qing Dynasty is no longer the lord of China.

The courtiers were silent, this threshold is not good, the key is to see whether Yongzheng is willing to pass.

Yongzheng twisted his face, as if he was experiencing a violent struggle in his heart, and finally he said angrily: "I have great determination, I am for the world, for the Qing Dynasty, for the Manchu and Han people, to endure such humiliation!" ”

Yun Xiang spoke: "This is not the emperor's humiliation, this is the humiliation of the courtiers!" ”

The lord humiliated the ministers to death, as soon as Yun Xiang spoke, all the ministers in the palace knelt down, choked up, and all of them burst into tears.

Yongzheng also said quietly: "Zhuqing! We must keep in mind today's humiliation, and I will cheer up and return this humiliation to the Nanban a hundredfold! ”

The crying was like a tide, and when the tide was exhausted, Zhang Tingyu said again: "The minister begs the emperor to pardon Tian Congdian......"

When this name was proposed, the unknown person secretly said that that guy had proposed the peace between the north and the south earlier, and it was really prescient.

Then Ma Qi said tremblingly: "If the situation in Jiangnan has not yet corroded, the Nanban may not be so rampant. ..., this is too right, Nanban is making trouble in Jiangnan, if he doesn't react so much, the emperor may not receive this peace treaty, even if the inside is lost, the face is still there, and the person who tore the emperor's son must be punished!

"Marseille, damn it!"

"Advocate the war and lose, Jiangnan is erosive, and the blame is all on his own!"

"If you don't kill Marseille, it's not enough to calm the hearts of the world!"

The ministers shouted indignantly, Yongzheng and Zhang Tingyu glanced at each other, and they both said secretly...... The plan went well.

Marseille was thus detained on charges of "talking about sword soldiers, being unbearable, fleeing in fear of war, and living up to the emperor's grace", and Li Wei directly took it down in Suzhou. The court decided to make a decision, Yongzheng showed a heart of forgiveness, and changed to behead the prison marquis, and it is estimated that in the autumn it will be delayed to send Ningguta again.

But outside the plan, there is a small deviation, that is, Nian Qianyao. Yongzheng was going to take this opportunity to implicate Nian Qianyao from Marseille and take him down. Unexpectedly, after Marseille's defeat of Songjiang, this guy seized the loophole and led his troops to Jinshanwei. It made the battle situation look like a flank attack from his young Qianyao, forcing back the southern barbarians who were about to enter Suzhou north.

This is a great achievement, because the two sides are fighting each other, making the "peace talks" between the north and the south look like they are really talking about peace. It was difficult for Yongzheng to turn his face and clean up Nian Qianyao at this moment, so he had to pinch his nose, give Nian Qianyao a credit, and temporarily let him squat on the post of general in Hangzhou.

This plan, especially the rhetoric and methods used to cover up the face of the North-South peace treaty, were actually Li Xi's points. Everyone is an old acquaintance, and Li Xi said it to Yongzheng very directly in the secret letter. We are all rule-abiding people, no matter how you fiddle with it, you have to integrate all the details of me into it, so that the people below can see these details. Other than that, it's up to you how you want to cover your face.

In the fifth year of the Holy Dao and the fifth year of Yongzheng, in April, the "Hushu Peace Treaty" was signed in Yangzhou. This peace talk was about the extension of Hushu Pass, but it extended from this pass to the situation between the two sides in Jiangnan.

The Manchu Qing Dynasty "opened business" in Jiangsu and Zhejiang provinces, allowing the free flow of goods and people between the north and the south, and at the same time "allowed" the Yinghua to "protect merchants" along the coasts and rivers of the two provinces.

Corresponding to the "Hushu Peace Treaty", Yongzheng made large-scale personnel adjustments in Jiangnan. The governors of Liangjiang were abolished, and Zhejiang and Jiangsu were each set up governors, who were concurrently appointed by governors, and in addition to managing government affairs, they also shared military power with generals Jiangning and Hangzhou. Zhejiang is Fan Shijie, Jiangsu is Li Fu, and Li Wei was transferred to the governor of Zhili.

The north and the south have made peace, and the world is at peace. The people of Jiangnan breathed a sigh of relief, and they all subconsciously compared it with the alliance of the Song Liao. Although in the end, Song Liao still fought as usual, but after the alliance between the north and the south, the north and south enjoyed peace for many years. The situation should be the same as before.

Opposite the Huangpu Wuya Palace, on the south side of the Temple of Heaven, a grand hall rises from the ground, which is the political hall. Li Shi returned the internal power to the cabinet, and the cabinet deliberations no longer entered the palace, but were resolved by themselves in this political hall. At this time, in the hall of the palace, the courtiers waited with bated breath, and Li Xi was publishing the "Theory of National Situation" to explain the future direction of the Anglo-Chinese country.

"Five years, the validity of this peace treaty is only five years at most, although it is not explicitly stated, but I understand in my heart, and Yongzheng also understands in my heart, this peace treaty will only last for five years at most."

"We will complete the entire layout of Nanyang within these five years, drive the British, French, and Dutch out of Nanyang, and let Yinghua enjoy a unique position in Nanyang!"

"In the next five years, we will let the East and West Houses grow up and take on the responsibilities that they can bear at present."

"In these five years, we will use the power of the steam engine to promote the rise of all industries."

"In these five years, we will control the entire Jiangnan with commercial goods, capital, and people's hearts, and take off Jiangnan after five years, without injury or pain."

"Within five years, we want to cover the whole country in Mongolian education, so that no child is left behind."

"Within five years, we will allow hundreds of schools of thought to make this country stable and our heart of China."

Li Xian summed up in a high-spirited manner: "Five years later, the Dragon Gate will be the gate of the Central Plains that I Yinghua will take!" ”

His voice drifted through the hall and out of the government hall, like an awe-inspiring breeze with a gentle breeze, blowing the land of Yinghua, and pushing the sails of the rivers and seas, allowing the busy ships of all sizes to break the waves.

Longmen Harbor, a huge and incomparable, twice the size of the double-deck gun-deck giant ship that had been shown here before, left the port, the mast of the ship reached the sky, the sails were like mountains, and the people along the coast were dazzled.

"Nanban...... It's amazing how such a big ship was built. ”

These Jiangnan people made a simple sigh.

"Kunpeng, to the east!"

On the helm platform of the huge sea ship, Lu Hanshan waved his hand and shouted.
