Since the entry of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, after the establishment of the "Eight Governors", it is an unwritten rule that there are as few as five and as many as six or seven or eight in the banner. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoAfter all, these eight governors are the feudal officials of the country, and they can't be cautious in the selection of people, compared to Hanchen, they are still their own minions are more reliable, so before the Xianfeng Dynasty, few Hanchen served as local governors.

However, after the "ancestral law" started from the long hair chaos, especially after Xianfeng died in Rehe, the Queen Mother of the Two Palaces and King Gong appointed the Han people to suppress the flat hair and twist it up in order to protect the "I Qing Dynasty", and the Han ministers were reused, whether it was for reward or for balance, the eight governors began to slowly be controlled by the Han people, and today, the eight governors of the world are all held by the Han people.

Among the eight governors in the world, because the two rivers have been the heavy tax for many years, there are two heavy salt taxes, and there is also the need for grain, the status of the governors of these two rivers is second only directly subordinate to the eight governors, and the second governor in the world, and its wealth is the first in the world. However, in the past few years, it has been challenged by Liangguang and Huguang, and Liu Kunyi, who has served as the governor of Liangjiang twice, is a veteran general of the Hunan army, who believes that the prosperity and strength of society comes from the excellence of the code system, and it is better to copy Western technology than "self-reliance".

However, as the governor of Liangjiang, although he did not agree with the concept of "mastering the skills of the Westernists to control the country" in the past, when the whole country was running Western-style affairs, due to the increased contact with Western-style affairs, Liu Kunyi had to express limited support for the Westernization movement.

However, all of this seems to have changed since last year, and the reality of Japan's dying country is on the verge of extinction. As a result, Liu Kunyi and many ministers of the DPRK and China had to face external threats soberly. And self-improvement seems to be the only option. It is precisely because of this that he shifted from his initial opposition to coal mining and the development of railways to limited support, such as supporting Zhang Zhidong to build the Huainan Jiulonggang Coal Mine for coking at the Hanyang Iron Works, and at the same time supporting the construction of the Jiulonggang-Anqing railway.

Zhang Zhidong's original intention was that the railway should be built to Pukou on the other side of Jiangning, but Liu Kunyi strongly opposed it, and he opposed the development of the railway because he feared that the railway would make porters and boatmen of the Grand Canal unemployed. This was despite the fact that the Grand Canal was in decline. But this does not prevent it from doing everything possible to maintain the interests of the shipowner.

However, in the past half month, Liu Kunyi felt deeply inconvenient without the railway -- after the Hangzhou incident, according to the will of the imperial court, as the governor of Liangjiang, he mobilized as many as 15 battalions of defense troops to go to Hangzhou to help suppress them, but in the past half a month, only three battalions of the defense troops transferred from Jiangsu, Anhui, and Jiangxi entered Zhejiang, and the other 12 battalions were still on the road.

But what's the use of being harsh? Liu Kunyi, who is a veteran general of the Hunan army, is naturally a person who knows the soldiers. The transfer of troops from the three provinces to Zhejiang seems to be extremely close. But there is no more than a month of effort, and how can you transfer troops into Zhejiang, but how can Hangzhou wait for more than a month, this half a month, Hangzhou has been connected to more than ten cities, how not to make people frightened.

Just when Liu Kun did everything possible to mobilize the Liangjiang Defense Army into Zhejiang to suppress it, and urged the Jinling Manufacturing Bureau to supply ammunition, the chaos in the north cast a lingering haze in the Liangjiang Governor's Palace.

"How can Tang Ziran take this road!"

As for Tang Ziran, Liu Kunyi didn't know much about it, but he had read a few books written by him, and even the dealings between the two sides, but it was just that his staff members asked him to take care of the Beiyang Company with his personal letter, but now when he learned that he actually used the excuse of "Qingjun's side" to raise troops in North Korea, he was shocked and couldn't help but smile bitterly.

"Tang Ziran's matter, he has not been educated by national studies, and his style of acting is like a foreigner, and his reputation is far greater than that of Zhang Xiangtao, this person's behavior against North Korea this time is really ......"

Ill-conceived? Liu Kunyi did not continue, but turned the conversation around, looked at the telegram and sighed.

"In such an eventful time, his telegram inciting the center and the place is really ill-intentioned!"

Seeing that there was annoyance in the adult's words, his staff member Wang Xie said conveniently:

"It's not just ill-intentioned, it's clearly a hidden murderous machine, and now there is an urgent matter in Wuchang to listen to your opinion."

Wang Xie took out the secret telegram sent by Zhang Zhidong, although the imperial court has its own code book for each governor, but there is also a code book for private communication between the governors, this is to facilitate communication between the governors, and the two rivers are adjacent to Huguang, and naturally they are no exception.

"When he Zhang Xiangtao recommended Tang Ziran, he didn't expect it to be ...... today"

After receiving Zhang Zhidong's telegram, Liu Kun sighed, but his eyes narrowed slightly.

"It's just hateful, the people in the court, they believe in the Tang rebellion's incitement, and they don't believe in us and other Xinjiang officials! Such as the Yan family's forgetful disciples, it is really hateful! ”

Suddenly, a sentence only made the atmosphere in the big signing hall tense, and after the left and right staff listened, their faces sank, and the position of this staff member all depended on Dong Weng, if the court did not believe in Dong Weng, then the future would ...... And how can there be a future?

"In the past, people often said that he Tang Ziran was just a stunned young man, but who would have thought that he would be so scheming, so ...... in a few words"

Without waiting for Yi Shunding to finish speaking, Wang Xie smiled bitterly on the side.

"Trickery? The trickster is doing yin, how is Tang Ziran's plan this time a conspiracy? ”

This rhetorical question made the people around him stunned, and they all turned their eyes to Wang Xie, and Liu Kunyi looked at him even more curiously, looking like he was listening to him continue.

"The so-called conspiracy is to set a trap, that is, to create something out of nothing. Among them, the level depends on whether the trap set by people is clever or not. But no matter how clever the trap is, it is the fatal wound of the conspiracy. As long as people see through it, this conspiracy is worthless. Therefore, there are flaws in the conspiracy. And Yang Mou is different, Yang Mou is a ploy that puts everything in front of you. It has no privacy, no secrets. It's transparent almost everything, so it's not flawed. The implementer only needs to grasp the direction. It can be said that it is taking advantage of the situation to promote all inevitable development and achieve its own goals. It's like a flood bursting its banks, everyone knows that people will die, but those who stand in front of it still have to die, and they can't walk. ”

Wang Xie's words only made everyone nod their heads. Not really. If he Tang Ziran used it, it was a conspiracy. How could the crowd not see through it, but now, even if they saw through his plan, they were invulnerable. The imperial court knew that it was using a counter-plot and was dividing the place and the center, but it had to guard against it, as it did for Wang Fuchen back then, and did everything possible to appease it. And what about after pacification?

After today's "Eight Governors for Han", I am afraid that Tang will rebel against Fangping, and the court over there will take action against the local government, and when the time comes, how will the situation be cleaned up at that time?

"Yang conspiracy is the real trick that does not leak, my lord, brothers, to be honest, I really hope that Tang Ziran's plan is covered up and unknown in the middle, so conspiratorial. Rather, there is nothing to be afraid of, as long as it does. There will be loopholes, but unfortunately, everything is spread out in a big way, above board. ”

After a slight pause, Wang Xie smiled helplessly.

"That's the terrible thing about Yangmou. Whether it's a trap or not, we'll have to drill into it. Even if we knew what his purpose was, we had to drill down......"

Wang Xie's words only made everyone's minds sink, and Liu Kunyi held the teacup tightly, and stopped speaking for a long time, with a thick melancholy on his face, but Wang Xie continued as if he didn't see it.

"What's even more irritating is that even if the whole world understands its evil intentions, they have to be willing to drive it, the court will guard against us according to its calculations, and the ministers will advocate for the court to guard against the ministers......"

Not really!

The current situation is not like this, whether it is the court or the courtiers, they are all driven by it, the court's precaution against the Xinjiang ministers, and the disbelief of the Xinjiang ministers in the court, is now ......

"In the final analysis, in fact, if there is no group of so-called loyal minions who are not enough to do things, and those who have more than enough to do things add chaos to them, how can this world be like this?"

"These bastards, all of them have to be killed!"

Putting down the teacup in his hand, when Yi Shunding mentioned those people, he gritted his teeth with hatred and squeaked up and down.

"In such an eventful season, the court can't distinguish between loyalty and treachery, but allows it to look at the difference between the Manchu and the Han, which is a knife in our chest, which is much more powerful than the discussion outside!"

Yi Shunding, who gritted his teeth, set his eyes on Wang Xie, and the non-argument of loyalty and treachery in his mouth naturally referred to Manchu slaves such as the Yan family, and it was also the imperial court's vigilance against local Xinjiang officials, which was really chilling.

"Shifu, the eight governors of the world are all Han ministers, and now those in Hangzhou are inciting Manchu and Han antagonism, and those in North Korea are saying that the Manchu and Han are unfair, so how can the court believe me?"

Wang Xie said to the adults again.

"My lord, since then, after the events of Hangzhou and North Korea, even if my generation is loyal to the imperial court, I am afraid that because my generation is a Han Chinese, I will not be trusted by the imperial court!"

This sentence is a bit of a heart, if the local minister does not believe in the court, then what awaits him? It will undoubtedly be a death and a broken reputation. Wang Xie's words only made Liu Kunyi's brows furrow tighter, as a local minister, he was naturally loyal to the imperial court, but this was the problem...... At that time, the old handsome man could be said to be loyal, and the court asked him to disarm Xiangyong, so what should he do? But what does loyalty get in exchange? After the death of the old handsome, the nine marshals (Zeng Guoquan) were repeatedly impeached and had to resign and return to their hometowns, and later even together with Zeng Jize also died in the melancholy in the Tongwen Museum.

Eight Governors Discuss Political ...... How many of the eight kings who discussed the government back then were not killed? Perhaps, these eight governors are just a telegram from Tang Ziran, but if someone uses it as a tool to impeach him in the future, how should he deal with himself? This will Liu Kun, on the contrary, understand Zhang Zhidong's helplessness and annoyance.

Thinking about the old things of Aixinjueluo's family, Liu Kunyi looked at the cronies and staff around the room and said.

"Now that King Gong has come back, and he has said a generous word to appease the Xinjiang officials, my Great Qing Kingdom can be said to be about to prosper, such as Hangzhou and Tang ......, but it's just the itch of ringworm and scabies."

Liu Kunyi didn't say anything else, but as in the past, he was full of loyalty to the court, but if he tasted it carefully, he could hear the taste.

"I invite you to come today, which is to discuss a two-pronged strategy, one is to stabilize the current national situation, and the other is to help the imperial court to calm the chaos, thinking that the world ......is prosperous."

"Humble duties must share the worries of adults."

The staff said with a sense of gratitude for being trusted, and from the words of the Lord, they could already hear the subtext of the Lordship - he did not object to the Eight Governors' deliberations.

If all the affairs of the world are handled by the Eight Governors, then wouldn't the court be just an ornament...... Not to mention whether it is a decoration or not, at that time, the adults will recommend the official positions of these two rivers and three provinces, wouldn't it be easy to capture?

Everyone has selfish intentions, especially for the staff in these houses, the reason why they entered the other people's scenes, in order to seek their background, in the past, there were more monks and less porridge, even if there was a recommendation from Dong Weng, it was not necessarily that the court would accept it, I don't know how many people were promoted to the curtain and turned white, now, such an opportunity to skip the court is in front of them, how can everyone miss it.

For a time, there were many opinions in this big signing room, and everyone's words revolved around one problem - how to deal with oneself when the court was hypocritically believing in the locality, in other words, now there are traitors in the court, and the big guys want to protect themselves, and this way of self-preservation.

"We will be favored by the court in the world, and we must not do unfaithful and unrighteous things!"

Seeing that the staff seemed to be taking themselves into the fire pit, thinking that everyone was expecting the old handsome to go to the next level, he immediately understood the caution of the old handsome back then, if the old handsome was as young as Tang Ziran, this Chinese thing might be very different!

Liu Kunyi's attitude is actually similar to Zhang Zhidong's attitude, in the matter of Tang Ziran's "Qingjun side", they will temporarily choose to remain silent in order to wait and see what happens.

"But ...... over there in Hangzhou"

"My lord, this is easy to do, Liangjiang was ordered to help suppress the rebels in Hangzhou, but it really can't work, so let the team walk slowly on the road, and it will be three months and two months."

Yi Shunding rushed out without thinking, without any scruples at all.

"Isn't this a deliberate procrastination for us and others to provide an excuse for others to attack?"

Liu Kun paced with his hands behind his back, not coming up with a good idea, but he always felt that this method was inappropriate.

"Your Excellency."

After being silent for a long time, Wang Xie, who remembered an old story, finally spoke, and he looked at the adult and said.

"I figured out what Lord Li meant by Zhili, I wanted to use a more secure way to deal with the affairs of the north without being very revealing, this Hangzhou rebellion, on the surface it was the Tan family's rebellion, but the Tan family was earlier than Hubei, that is, Tang Ziran befriended, and even went to Beijing with him, he plotted chaos in Hangzhou, but I don't know that Tang Ziran has not intervened in it, if he intervenes in it, then the adults ......"

This is exactly what everyone has ignored, Wang Xie mentioned it at this time, everyone's faces changed, if Tang Ziran intervened in the rebellion in Hangzhou, then the world ...... I'm afraid it's going to change!

(The "Eight Governors Discuss Politics" is actually the most vulnerable string of the Manchu Qing Dynasty instigated by the "Manchu and Han defenses", thus dividing the Manchu court from the local government, making the two sides wary of each other, and using the late Qing court's precautionary heart against the localities, as well as the power desire of the Xinjiang ministers, of course, it is more important to put all this on the table, so as to tear the skin of the so-called "unification of the state and the dynasty".)
