Chapter 352: Borrowing a knife to kill
The news that the Qing Dynasty decided to implement overseas feudalism, fully occupied the South Seas, deposed the crown prince again, discovered Australia, established the Qing Royal Navy, and expanded the navy by 20,000 soon spread in the capital.
The officials of the provinces stationed in Beijing and the cronies of the governors stationed in Beijing immediately rushed to various places to report such important news, and the wealthy businessmen and tycoons in Beijing also heard the news and sent people to Tianjin, Shanghai, Xiamen, Guangzhou, and other major ports by speedboat. This series of news is all related to overseas trade, and everyone knows that the major ports are about to usher in unprecedented development.
Officials who are inextricably linked with the sea trade move faster, as soon as the dynasty disperses, they will urgently reprimand people and quickly spread the word, this decision of the imperial court will make the sea trade reach an unprecedented prosperity, we must seize the time to purchase sea ships, buy sea ships that can sail to the sea, the Qing Dynasty in the next few years, will open up new routes to all overseas continents, this is the opportunity for the major sea trade groups to reshuffle, seize and divide the sphere of influence.
There is another suggestion in the letter, hoping that the major families will send a large number of outstanding children into the navy, and all the officials are clearly aware that the Qing navy will occupy a pivotal position in the future overseas trade, and if you want to carry out ocean trade, you must have their voice in the navy.
A group of royal family relatives, noble ministers in addition to the excitement also began to take precautions, the fifth brother Heng Prince Yinqi, who is expected to be the first to get the opportunity to divide the seal, is even more excited, immediately sent people out of contact manpower, began to form a team. Many families also encouraged their children to go to Tianjin and Shanghai to serve in the navy.
The most frustrated is a group of landlords in the suburbs of Beijing, after the news of the sale of Luzon, the price of land fell in response, and now this series of news came out one after another, and the price of land immediately dropped by one percent, on the contrary, the sale of Luzon Island once again caused heated discussions, however, the news about the establishment of a province in Australia and the vigorous development of Australia soon spread, and caused widespread discussion.
As soon as the fifteenth elder brother Yinyu left the palace, he rushed directly to the Beijing newspaper office, reprimanded people to copy the newspaper, arranged for people to write articles, and was very busy, there are too many resolutions in today's court meeting, and they are all major decisions, and there is no room for the slightest negligence.
Yangxin Palace, Dongnuan Pavilion, a group of ministers in the study have retreated, Yinzhen hurriedly finished eating a fast food of two dishes and one soup given by Kangxi, and waited for Kangxi to eat, he knew that Kangxi had too many things to talk about with him, so he seized this short time to quickly sort out his thoughts.
Kangxi pays attention to a food without speaking, sleeping silently, eating is rarely spoken, Yinzhen is also full of things, Li Dequan and a group of little eunuchs and palace maids are even more cautious, and they don't even dare to take a sip of the atmosphere.
After a while, Kangxi finished his meal, rinsed his mouth and cleaned his hands, waved his hand and retreated from the eunuchs and palace maids, and then said: "The Nanyang military situation is urgent, and you are also busy with affairs, and some urgent details must be discussed with you in detail." As he spoke, he went straight to the point: "What are your specific plans right now?" ”
Yinzhen groaned: "Back to Huang Ama, Erchen plans to go to Tianjin first, then to Shanghai, and then to Manila via Guangzhou. ”
Kangxi nodded slightly, and said: "The reward for the establishment of the navy is held in Tianjin, and Tianjin's relief, development, and construction matters are not trivial, who do you want to be responsible?" ”
Tianjin is on the side of Gyeonggi, Yinzhen doesn't dare to make decisions without permission, he wants him to pay for this matter, he is not afraid that Kangxi will dare to appoint people indiscriminately, so he immediately owes himself and says: "Tianjin's affairs, the ministers dare not be arbitrary, and ask the emperor Ama to decide." ”
Kangxi sighed slightly: "Tianjin's status is becoming more and more prominent, and it is necessary to choose an old man who is a serious minister, Shi Shilun is outstanding, known for his integrity, and has the courage to do things, and has long been experienced in the local area, and is skilled in government affairs, which can be called the best candidate." ”…,
"Huang Ama is far-reaching, Tianjin will inevitably be a place for Australian immigrants to go to sea in the future, Shi Shilun has always loved the people, and he is in charge of Tianjin affairs, which is really the blessing of the people of Tianjin and the blessing of immigrants." Yinzhen praised in his mouth, but he felt a big headache, although Shi Shilun said that he was a member of the 14th Party, but this person was extremely tough, and he was well-known for being honest and loving the people, Tianjin was blessed, and his money bag was afraid that it would be deflated a lot, it seems that he had to find a way to make money as soon as possible.
Speaking of Tianjin, Yinzhen hurriedly took the opportunity to say: "Emperor Ama, the sixteenth brother is now divided into the government, and he is proficient in mathematics, the day before yesterday I mentioned to Erchen that he intends to enter the Tianjin Naval Academy for exercise, Erchen is concerned that the navy is now in urgent need of mathematical talents, and intends to recruit mathematical talents to enter the navy to engage in the development of artillery and muskets. However, this matter is very important, and the ministers did not dare to make their own decisions, and asked the emperor to show it. ”
Fifteen and sixteen, these two brothers contributed a lot to the pacification of the prince's mutiny, Kangxi is well aware, Yinlu is smart and studious, since he was a child, he has been on patrol with the car, he is also quite fond, I heard that he is going to the navy, Kangxi groaned slightly, and said: "It is a good thing that there is a prince in Tianjin Naval Academy, but the old sixteen is very active, and within three years, he is not allowed to go to sea with the ship." ”
"Son's Honor." Yinzhen replied in a deep voice.
Kangxi took a sip of tea, and then said slowly: "The First War in the South Seas is a matter of national fortune, you must not underestimate the enemy, you are not in a hurry to fight Japan, the Beiyang Fleet, you take all of it to the South Seas, you must quickly capture and control the entire South Seas." ”
"Please rest assured that the emperor will not live up to the grace of the saint and damage the prestige of the country." Yinzhen said confidently.
Kangxi bowed slightly, and said slowly: "Fight this battle, I, I won't let you down." ”
Kangxi gave up the secret reserve! It's a place to motivate him! Yinzhen felt a burst of ecstasy in his heart, and immediately forcibly stabilized his mind, got up calmly and left his seat and kowtowed: "Son, thank the emperor Ama for his holy grace." ”
"Well, get up." Kangxi said lightly: "Control of Nanyang, the relationship between Annam, Burma, Nanzhang and Siam and other vassal states must be re-examined, this matter is not in a hurry, at present, the main thing is to appease, Nanyang should be logistics and military needs, must be properly organized and planned, Quanzhou, Guangzhou to and from the Nanyang sea ships are numerous, to make great use." ”
Yinzhen laughed secretly when he heard it, Kangxi is really aggressive, and he has already begun to fight the idea of a number of vassal states in Southeast Asia, think about it, occupy the South Seas, Southeast Asia is the meat of the mouth, and I can't help it if I don't eat it.
Lianjun Palace.
Scattered Dynasty returned to the mansion, the eighth elder brother Yinxi's expression couldn't help but be a little melancholy, although the prince has been completely deposed, but the old fourteen is too sharp, Australia, Nanyang, overseas division, all of them are extraordinary feats, and they can't compete with it at all, the only thing to do is to wait, wait for the old fourteen to make a mistake, and wait for the old fourteen Nanyang to lose, which is too passive.
What worries him even more is that Kangxi not only accepted the overseas division of the old fourteen saints, but also exiled Surda to Australia, and not only did he not think he was angry with the old fourteen, but instead established the Admiralty, so that the old fourteen righteous commanders of the navy and several major naval divisions along the coast, this favor is simply to the extreme.
originally thought that there would be a vicious battle between Kangxi and the old fourteenth, but Kangxi ended hastily, didn't Kangxi worry that the old fourteenth would endanger his imperial power?
Lao Jiu Yinyu was also silent, now the situation is completely one-sided, Lao Fourteen can be said to have taken the advantage, an overseas division, pulled away all the royal clansmen, and an Australia made Kangxi Longyan happy, where is there room for contention?
Seeing that several people were silent, the tenth elder brother Yinqi was quite impatient, his heart moved, and the old words were repeated: "Why don't we join forces with the third brother and the fourth brother like the prince to deal with the fourteenth brother together?" ”…,
The corners of Yinyu's mouth twitched when he heard this, and the tenth really dared to think about it, he couldn't help laughing and said: "Don't call him the prince, now call him the second child." Then he said, "Can you use your brains to speak?" Joining forces with the third and fourth, these two are now dead fish, doing so will only anger the old fourteen, and the current eight parties can withstand the blow of the old fourteen? ”
"Is that possible, the prince was not a dead fish at the beginning, didn't he almost succeed when he had the opportunity?" Yin Qi said indifferently: "The fourth child is ruthless, for so many years, the old fourteen guarded against him, a few years ago, the fourteenth guarded against him like a thief, which shows that the fourth child has a very thick foundation." Besides, if there is no evidence, how can you say that the fourth child is a dead fish? ”
He Zhuo looked at it and laughed secretly, the tenth master is a gag, the master of nonsense, what others dare not think or say, he dares, and he also speaks eloquently.
The speaker is unintentional, the listener is intentional, hearing that the fourth brother has a thick foundation, the eighth elder brother Yinxi couldn't help jumping in his heart, since the fourth brother dared to assassinate the old fourteen in Guangzhou, he would take another risk when the old fourteen was a foregone conclusion? If this is the case, then he will be a fisherman's profit.
There is no need to take the slightest risk in this matter, just need to praise the old fourteen in a timely manner, anyway, the old fourteen is now in the limelight, thinking of this, Yinxi shook his head, this is a knife to kill, there is no need to intervene in this matter, just let it be, if the fourth wants to start, even if it is not touted, if there is a chance, the fourth will also start, just wait.
Seeing that Yinyu shook his head slightly, Yinyu didn't bother to pay attention to the old ten, turned his head and said: "It's still the starling brother who is reasonable, although we can't do the gentleman's dispute, but we can't join forces with the fourth, it's a poisonous snake." ”
Yinxi glanced at Yinxi and said: "The tenth brother has always been open-mouthed, if this word reaches the ears of the fourteenth brother, won't it divide our brotherhood?" ”
Yin Qi smiled and said: "I don't see that you are too boring, to relieve your boredom, hehe, I am purely unintentional, unintentional." ”
"Don't make that joke next time." Yin Yu reprimanded lightly, and then said: "The old fourteen is extremely strong now, we are powerless to compete with it, we can only sit and watch the situation, although I am unwilling, but it is also a helpless move, or that sentence, the old fourteen is the prince, I will be completely dead." ”
