In Li Guangzuo's eyes, Nian Bin's smile was particularly hideous, and his tumbling mouth seemed to be baring its fangs and chewing his heart repeatedly.

"I have been in the Qing Dynasty and Huairou North Korea, and it is only in recent years. During the Shunzhi period, all the sons of the world had to enter the Jingshi. When Emperor Kangxi was in power, he also vetoed your choice as the son of Suzong, and let you give birth to the rebellion of Zhang Xiconcubine in North Korea. The current king originally wanted to get rid of the Nanren Party near the Qing Dynasty, but he was warned by the emperor and instead cleared the Dongren Party near the Nanban...... Li Yizheng, you do the math, in the past hundred years, you have been fighting the party of the king of North Korea, and you have been revolving around my Qing Dynasty, do you really think that North Korea can break free from my Qing Dynasty!? ”

Li Guangzuo's forehead was sweating, and he said: "This, this, the young son should talk to Min Yizheng, Min Yizheng them, but they are close to the Qing Dynasty." ”

Nian Bin snorted coldly: "Min Zhenyuan himself understands this very well, why do you need to tell him again, and tell you Li Yizheng because we are handsome and can give you an answer." ”

Li Guangzuo's pupils constricted, he knew Nian Bin's intention, but Nian Bin was so straightforward, it still surprised him.

"Last year, the son of Xiaozhang died of illness, the king has no heir, and your Shaolun faction is pressed by the old critics, and there is no righteousness to compete with it. What is the general meaning of the old school? It's just to get close to the Qing Dynasty, you want to overwhelm the old faction, only by borrowing the power of the big handsome, the big handsome can give you great righteousness! ”

"What is the righteousness of the great handsome? Protect the three thousand miles of North Korea! Can the old school be saved? They are stupid and cowardly, and they dare not open their eyes to the general trend of the world, not knowing that the world has changed, and North Korea must also change! ”

"The Qing Dynasty is already in decline, you Koreans are eager to be self-reliant, and you must want to get rid of the Qing Dynasty and stand on your own, but can the Qing Dynasty allow you to stand on your own? You can't go to the Southern Barbarians, it's a country where the Dao system has fallen. How can we both keep the religion and stand outside the Qing Dynasty? this road. Can North Korea get through on its own? ”

Nian Bin lowered his voice, making his words more infectious because of the low voice.

"This road. Only by being handsome! Hand in hand with Dashuai. Keeping the sage and sage lineage and standing outside the Qing Dynasty is the right direction. ”

Nian Bin's tone turned to enthusiasm: "Li Yizheng, the old critics can push the king." Take the DPRK on this path? I don't think so, only you don't talk about it. You can take over such a heavy responsibility. ”

Li Guangzuo continued to evade: "Young man, you are not afraid of these words. It was passed to the Qing court. Is it a disaster for the young general? ”

Nian Bin smiled slightly: "The marshal said that he was not sick, but reached out to ask for the position of Minister of North Korean Affairs, what was the result?" ”

Li Guangzuo's heart was shocked, Nian Qianyao had reached such a point, and he wanted to meddle in North Korea, who else could stop him?

After Nian Bin left. Li Guangzuo was tossing and turning at home, but he didn't realize that it was late at night.

Pro-Qing or Yuanqing. The strategy of governing the country, the selection of the prince, the selection of concubines, and the competition for official positions are all coordinates that distinguish the party struggle in North Korea. But to go back up, it is the old feud of the two class gate valves.

At the beginning, it was the Dongren Party and the Westerner Party, with Hanyang as the boundary, and the Shilin bureaucracy was divided into two factions, the east and the west, and after a hundred years of precipitation, two interest groups were formed to fight to the death around the government and government.

After the East People's Party came to power, it divided into the South People's Party and the North People's Party, and after the Japanese Rebellion, the North People's Party came to power and divided into the Great North and the Little North Party. The Great Northern Party won the battle, and then divided into the Bone North and the Flesh North Party. The Western-side Party supported King Injo to come to power and turned the tables, dominated the government for more than 50 years, and divided into the Xunxi Party, the Qingxi Party, the Mountain Party and the Han Party. By the time of Sujong, the Nanren Party of the Dongren Party came to power again.

After the dispute between Suzong Zhang Xi's concubine and Shizi, the Westerners defeated the Southerners and divided into the old Zhuang faction and the young Zhuang faction, that is, the old theory and the young theory.

In this context, any element that affects the change of the government may become the focus of party contention, and even in the Suzong era, the issue of royal uniforms has become a breakthrough for the Southern Party to defeat the Western Party, and the attitude towards the Qing Dynasty is a crucial coordinate. …,

After the Qing Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty, there was such an unspoken rule in the party struggle in North Korea, and if the weak side was on the weak side, it would "go far away" to show that it was righteous, and the ruling side had to proceed from reality and adopt the strategy of "near Qing Dynasty." From Suzong to the Jingzong era, the old discourse faction was in power, and the young discourse faction naturally held high the banner of the Yuanqing Dynasty. The current king engaged in the "Dangping Strategy", and wanted to integrate the four colors (southerners, northerners, old theories, and young theories), and also incorporated the Shaolun faction into the center of the court, and the "Yuanqing" slogan of the Shaolun faction was much weaker.

Nowadays, the external situation of North Korea is changing in a variety of ways, and the three sides of the Qing Dynasty, Nian Qianyao and Great Britain are circling North Korea. The old school regarded Nian Qianyao as a great enemy, and their strategy was to get closer to the Qing Dynasty and use the Qing Dynasty to suppress Nian Qianyao. As the leader of the Shaolun faction, Li Guangzuo could only choose to get close to Nian Qianyao and get rid of the Qing Dynasty.

Li Guangzuo knew very well that if he did not oppose the old critics, he would no longer be able to represent the young critics. Not only is it difficult to keep the position of the right councilor, but his life may be lost. The party struggle in North Korea is life and death, and if there is no influence from the outside world, there may still be a possibility of realizing it, but now that the two enemies are pressing on their heads, it is really naïve to expect to ease the party struggle.

Li Guangzuo said to himself bitterly: "Do I still have a choice? It's so naïve......"

Cooperating with Nian Qianyao is to dance with wolves, and he can't see clearly where the road ahead in North Korea leads.

When his wife came to her knees and asked for a rest, Li Guangzuo suddenly asked, "What would you do if someone broke into your house and raped you?" ”

The wife was shocked, and subconsciously said: "Of course I committed suicide to save my ...... with my full name."

Li Guangzuo shook his head: "No, you should endure humiliation and steal your life, and serve with all your heart, lest the thief get angry and harm his children again." ”

The wife said in fear: "Is the official suspected of the innocence of the concubine?" Why is it so sarcastic? ”

Li Guangzuo laughed and said, "That's not you, that's my ......"

He laughed and cried, and secretly said that Nian Bin was right, someone had to stand up and lead North Korea forward. Even if it is a humiliating road, it is better to lead it by yourself than the gang of thieves who are in trouble with the country of the old critics.

The next day, the civil and military officials were still arguing in Jingde Palace[1], and Li Yu conveyed Zuo Weisheng's words to the court, asking for a constitution, and the old school proposed to send an envoy to Beijing to ask the Qing Emperor to make a Qing system.

Lee Kwang-zuo's sonorous words turned the debate in another direction: "What the leader said is ill-intentioned, and he wants to lose my DPRK!" The Qing Dynasty was not a good lord, and in his early years, he pledged his son, and then disrupted the national politics of North Korea. The country of Hulu claims to be the seat of China. The heart of North Korea will not die! ”

"How did the Qing Dynasty control Nian Qianyao? Nian Qianyao is just asking to marry the lord. What conditions will the Qing Dynasty propose? Dispatch troops! Ruined the big newspaper! That's the bare minimum, but what's next? Marrying a princess as a princess, cutting off the Korean bloodline and even shaving your hair is easy to wear! Have you ever thought about such a consequence? ”

The faces of the ministers of the old sect in the palace turned pale. Li Yu is also cold in his heart, Li Guangzuo's words are right. Why did the Qing Dynasty help North Korea? If you want to help nature, you have to give benefits to Daqing. None of the above is impossible. It was intolerable for the Qing troops to enter Korea, and shaving their hair and changing clothes even destroyed the Korean system. And marry the princess as the princess. It is to directly seize the North Korean community!

Li Guangzuo forced Min Zhenyuan to look at him: "The lower officials feel that the leader has not only thought about it, but is also looking forward to this day......

Accusing the other side of betraying the country is an old routine of party struggle. In normal times, Li Yu would also come forward to play haha and reconcile the two sides. But at this time, Li Yu felt that Min Zhenyuan was connected with the old school. There is no such intention.

"How much harm can Nian Qianyao have? He was just a great general in the Qing Dynasty, and he didn't have any righteousness. Whether it's social or religious affairs, he can't take it away! The lesser of two evils can even be turned into benefits, and we in North Korea should use his strength to re-establish China's Taoism! Get rid of the position of the Qing vassal and the king .........,

Li Guangzuo bowed and said: "The king can also establish himself as the emperor in the name of inheriting the great righteousness of China!" ”

Min Zhenyuan's anxious justification and refutation had become the voice of mosquitoes and flies in Li Yu's ears, and the road ahead suddenly opened up in his eyes. That's right...... Why can't he use the power of Nian Qianyao to lead North Korea on the road to independence?

This Li Guangzuo was mostly bought by Nian Qianyao, but it's okay, without him, he doesn't have the strength to move forward. Let him come out first......

Thinking of the rise of the Holy Dao Emperor in a corner of the land, Shi Shengzhi and conquering half of the Manchu Dynasty, Li Yu's ambition burned. The old critics, the young critics, and Nian Qianyao are all his enemies, but in the small space of the Korean Kingdom, he can't stretch his hands and feet at all, and if he becomes the emperor and Korea becomes the Great Korea, things will be completely different.

Li Yu waved his hand to stop Min Zhenyuan, who was already roaring on his feet, and looked at the few officials who were loyal to him: "What do you have to say?" ”

With Li Yan's attitude becoming clear, some officials of the Shao Lun faction, the Dawang faction, and even the old lun faction who were anti-Min Zhenyuan all stood up and jointly crusaded against Min Zhenyuan, and at the beginning of June of the 11th year of the Holy Dao, the old discourse faction headed by Min Zhenyuan was expelled from the court.

But when Li Guangzuo, who was promoted to the leader of the council, was ready to chase and fight fiercely and put the backbone of the old theory school to death, Li Yu stopped him with a tough attitude.

"Governing the country with forgiveness and benevolence, seeking the unity of the four colors ......"

Li Yu said this, but said in his heart, if you don't leave the old critics, you won't be able to rectify your opponent at that time, of course this will not work.

Li Guangzuo naturally didn't dare to disobey Li Xuan, but it was only on the surface, within a few days, Min Zhenyuan was assassinated at home, Li Xuan didn't dare to do anything with Li Guangzuo in addition to gritting his teeth and secretly hating, and now he still needs Li Guangzuo to help him ascend the throne.

"Merchant? Don't pay attention to it for the time being, this is a national political dispute, and they can't do anything by relying on them. Now is not the time to bring the British forward, wait until I ascend to the throne. ”

When Huang Yuan, the national abbot, came to ask the Yinghua businessman Fan Sihai about the matter, Li Yu said so. He worshipped the Emperor of the Holy Dao, so he preferred to be able to interact with each other as equals when the two sides came into contact. With a new idea, he can't help but kill three soldiers and solve the current problem by himself.

"The North Koreans are too violent, let's move our mouths, and we will fall into a party and assassinate a prime minister......"

Muhua Pavilion, Nian Bin was shocked by his achievements, and when he talked about it with Zuo Weisheng, his tone was full of incredulity.

Zuo Weisheng said lightly: "There's nothing strange, this is the sorrow of a small country." ”

He smiled and said: "You can repay the marshal, send a welcoming team into North Korea, and ...... next step."

Nian Bin nodded: "Sir, don't worry, then Li Guangzuo knows things very well, he has agreed, expand the Muhua Pavilion, accommodate the honor guard of relatives, and then set up the history of the head of the Weng Mansion, and listen to the state affairs of North Korea." As long as the handsome man finds a reason to let the lord marry to the New Year Mansion next year, this time is enough for us to turn the clouds and rain in North Korea. ”

Then he frowned and said, "But the Nanban sailors are cruising the sea routes more and more frequently, and the activities of the Nanban merchants in Jeolla Province are also rampant, which is also troublesome." ”

Zuo Weisheng said disdainfully: "What kind of turmoil can a mere profit-seeking person stir up?" North Korea is a country with a population of six or seven million! is still holding a century-old moral feud with the Qing Dynasty, this is a chess game that businessmen can get on the table? ”

Nian Bin said: "It's better to be careful, I will let Lee Kwang-sa put pressure on the Jeolla Provincial Water Division." Let them clean up those merchants. ”

In mid-June, south of Jeolla Province, North Korea. The sea north of Jeju Island. Several warships flying the flag of the Joseon king were heading north, and smoke rose from the official cabin where the chief was seated. In the smoke, several North Korean generals giggled. He has a cigarette in his hand and a cigarette in his mouth.

"The Nanban merchants are very knowledgeable, and they know that our Korean sailors are invincible in the world. Without saying a word, he offered all the goods......"...,

"What is their proprietor's name? Oh, Fan Sihai, what a pitiful person. Actually, I want to leave some for him. But the Tao system makes it pressed. You must ban the Nanban merchants, there is really no way. ”

"These cigarettes are good, but the price is not high, and there is nothing to be gained."

"The valuable thing is hibiscus paste, and when they found it, the faces of the Nanban people changed. Almost got started. ”

Speaking of hibiscus cream, a group of generals suddenly became interested. They only vaguely knew that this thing was good, but they had never eaten it. The thought of snatching this thing from Nanban's hands made everyone feel comfortable and afraid. It was really dangerous at the time. The Nanban merchant ships also have cannons, and if they really fight, they will definitely win, and they don't know how many casualties they will have.

Or that Fan Sihai understands things and knows that this is the waters of North Korea, and they won't care about anything in the Southern Barbarian Kingdom if something happens, so they have to knock out their teeth and swallow blood. Who let him have no sea trade and have to smuggle it?

This trip handed over dozens of boxes of cigarettes from Fan Sihai, which is not uncommon along the coast of Jeolla Province, and it was smuggled by Fan Sihai's group of Nanban maritime merchants. And hibiscus paste can also be seen in Jeolla Province, but it is all a precious thing enjoyed by the two classes of scholars, and the four large boxes of hibiscus paste worn by Fan Sihai have been confiscated, and it is estimated that it is worth tens of thousands of taels of silver, no wonder his face is so bad, he is almost going to die.

The soldiers quickly took the hibiscus paste, used the smoking utensils attached to the box, stuffed the hibiscus paste into the form of pills, and ignited the fireworks, and a mist different from cigarettes dispersed.

The generals in the cabin squinted their eyes, just smelling the breath, they felt floating in the clouds, and their bodies were opened, and the person who was inhaling had lost focus of his eyes, collapsed on his seat, exhaled a long puff of smoke, and moaned weakly: "...... I'm going to die, I'm going to die comfort......"

To the south of Jeju Island, a large ship of six or seven hundred materials was sailing southward, and Fan Liuxi on the boat said, "Dad, why don't you let me do it?" Our ship is either from a brave family, or an old brother, how can we clean up those guys! ”

Fan Sihai shook his head: "I can't ...... it"

Fan Liuxi stomped his feet and said, "Those bastards! I already ate our silver, but now I turn my face and don't recognize people! Our goods are worth 10,000 or 20,000! I was expecting to rely on this shipment to open up the situation in Jeolla Province, but now ......"

Fan Sihai sighed, it is indeed too arduous to pry the country with the power of a businessman.

Previously, he was in the Hokkien Association and persuaded other directors of the company with his "extraordinary instrument" to support him to rely on commercial goods to enter North Korea for profit. And the "extraordinary vessel" he found was a cigarette.

This thing was made by the emperor single-handedly, and Fan Sihai felt that it was very promising. Based on the experience of the "Jiangnan Commercial War," he judged that this kind of cheap and large goods, which belonged to consumables, would definitely stir up North Korea. To this end, he did not hesitate to let the company spend a lot of money, and exclusively acted as the distributor of Yunyan Company in North Korea and Japan.

But the first trip to the shop had little effect, and the two classes of nobles looked down on this cheap tobacco, but the average North Korean could not afford it. finally sold dozens of boxes, and was blackmailed by Jeonju Mu and Luozhou Mu for hibiscus paste. If you don't bring hibiscus cream, don't do this cigarette business.

Hibiscus ointment, Nanyang Company is privately producing, the scale does not dare to be too big, and the report is still in the name of medicine, after all, Yinghua prohibits drugs, and this thing belongs to drugs. However, many people in Fujian, Guangdong, Siam, Burma, and even Luzon smoked this stuff, and some "regional executives" of the Nanyang Company took advantage of their power to drive the natives to build opium poppy plantations for profit. This kind of underground business is difficult to investigate, and it is difficult to get to the bottom of it.

Fan Sihai didn't pay much attention to this thing, after all, it was too expensive, not something that ordinary people could afford, and it didn't meet his definition of "extraordinary vessel". I brought those four boxes of hibiscus paste, just to cope with errands.

Unexpectedly, North Korea strengthened its control of the sea area, and the North Korean sailors who had received the silver and greeted him with a smile turned his face and directly seized the goods, and the four boxes of hibiscus paste became the biggest loss.

"Go to your Uncle Wugui and say that the North Korean sailors will not fall into the teachings, let Boss Bai send out two or three sea carp ships, pretend to be pirates, and beat those bastards well! I'll give you the silver! ”

Fan Sihai also has a fire in his stomach, and in addition to anger, he is also speculating whether the situation in North Korea has changed. Secretly had to meet with Feng Jingyao to discuss it and see if there was any new news from him.

The North Korean business base of the Fuhua Company was located in Nagasaki, Japan, and Fan Sihai returned to Nagasaki, while taking care of the Japanese cigarette business, while pondering how to expand the Korean market, a North Korean person came to him, and it was a Korean businessman who directly brought his cronies under the control of the Jeolla Provincial Navy Division to catch up with the door.

The merchant said earnestly: "The last time I offended proprietor Fan, it was indeed a strict order pressed down from above, and our general can only act according to the order, and if you offend, I hope that proprietor Fan will have a lot of ......."

The cronie even bloomed with a smiling face that was about to rot: "In order to apologize, the general is willing to offer his son-in-law and serve the owner of Fan." In the future, when Fan Dongzhu enters and exits the Korean waterway, as long as he does not make too much noise, the general will cover it. ”

Send it directly to your daughter...... The sincerity of this reparation is too great, so great that it is not atonement at all.

Fan Sihai asked, "What else does the general want?" ”

Merchants and cronies said in unison, "Hibiscus anointing!" ”
