Li Jiqi, who suddenly "cheered up", really lived up to his holy hopes, and in the surprised eyes of everyone, he began a long "discussion on politics" that he had never had before-

"The ministers think that the small country of North Korea is against the power of heaven and violates the dragon scales, and if we are punished by the grace and power of the heavenly dynasty, it is really their own fault. As for how to punish, the minister thought that the Ministry of Rites could first come up with a charter, and then give an edict to do it. As for the details, the ministers thought that the emperor had already made a big plan, so he didn't dare to speculate on the holy will! ”

"Hehe, Fu Xian Zhime!" Fu Lin was satisfied with the "resentful minister" who had always been silent, and opened Chrysostom under his own suggestion and persuasion, so he naturally did not care about the embarrassment of being "seen through" by his "big plan".

"As for the various discussions of the adults just now about the need to clean up the source and strictly control the prohibited things, the lower officials also think that they are very clever." Li Jiqi almost made a "circle" against the Manchu and Han ministers on both sides of him, which also made the people who had never been favored by this "noble man" very "inexplicable".

However, for a long time, it was thought that the military affairs involved a wide range of military supplies were not enough to cover one or two of them today. If we don't make a detailed survey as soon as possible, we will miss the big thing sooner or later. As soon as Li Jiqi said this, everyone unconsciously held their breath, and no one interjected, because everyone was calculating in their hearts what "military supplies" they could think of, and they really couldn't exhaust them for a while.

"There are some items that can only be used in the army, not in the people. Some items have both, and they are not easy to distinguish. If so, it is even more important to discern. for it is in the people, and it is a livelihood; In the army, it is for safety, and both the military and the people are social. The matter speaks for itself. Li Jiqi glanced at the emperor and continued to say meaningfully:

"For today's plan, the minister implores the emperor to follow the plan of the two adults, Lang Qiu and Tu Hai, as well as the words of the lords, and order the three departments of households, soldiers, and workers. Revise the Quartermaster Regulations of all ministries as soon as possible. Specify the rules. While speaking, Li Jiqi gave everyone on both sides, regardless of the Manchu and Han Dynasty, and came to another "Luo Quanyi". This can surprise those Manchu Han people who have always thought that Li Jiqi "regards himself as high and unsociable", and a few of them unconsciously returned a half-courtesy.

"Chen Tian receives the emperor's grace. After the head of the household department and the two departments of work and soldiers. There is also some understanding of the projects involved in the three departments. First of all, I will make a summary of the military rules of the three departments of this household, the army, and the industry, and ask all of you to correct the axe, and ask the emperor to judge it! Li Jiqi finally turned back. Facing the throne, he spoke in detail.

"The household military quartermaster is mainly as follows: rewarding the outfit, recording the amount of officers and soldiers at all levels; The rations of salt and vegetables shall be recorded for the living expenses of officials at all levels who go out with the army and the officers and soldiers stationed in the garrison, the officers and soldiers of the green battalion, the native soldiers, and the defectors; Riding pack horses and camels, it is recorded that officials at all levels are equipped with horses and camels; The cost of transporting military rations, munitions, ordnance, salaries and other military supplies is recorded; Prepare food rations for the settlers, and record the doctors, ministers, calligraphers and painters, ferrymen, sailors, station men, messengers, craftsmen, etc., and distribute them to all kinds of miscellaneous personnel sent by the military; Purchasing comprador solutions, remembering the purchase of rice, wheat and bean grass, horses, camels, cattle and sheep, paper, pen and ink, medicinal materials and other materials; The discount is recorded as the discount of rations for officers and soldiers, the horses on which officers and men go out to go on the expedition, and the distribution of forage to horses, camels, cattle and sheep along the way. There is also miscellaneous expenses, which are recorded as travel and miscellaneous expenses. ”

"Lord Lang, Lord Hu, is what you said false?" After Li Jiqi finished talking about the "business" of the household department, he immediately solicited the opinions of the two scholars of the household department.

"What Master Li said is true. Not only is it true, but the official has been taught! Lang Qiu's representative Hu Shi'an immediately expressed his position, but he thought in his heart: This Li Jiqi is really talented! It's a pity that there is always some self-pity......

"Take!" Li Jiqi was just a polite sentence, and then continued regardless of it:

"The military department under the jurisdiction of Lord Ka thought that his military needs were mainly as follows: grain carts, horses, pot tents, and records of attachés and horses for generals at all levels, as well as pot tents and living expenses for officers and soldiers; Antang husband and worker, record the food of the horsemen at the Tang station, the forage for horses, the expenses for carriages and horses, as well as the rules for the veterinarian salt and grain, and the dispatch of Beijing soldiers to equip the carriages and horses; Military merit pension, record the rules for military merit plus grades, bonus gifts for the dead and hiring children, and preferential compensation for the relatives of soldiers who died of illness in battle; Compensation for the dead, recording the casualties of the casualties, the reward for the wounded, the quota for the compensation of the casualties, the handling of the misreported casualties, the reward for the death of the officers and soldiers who have been demoted, and the deadline for handling the compensation and reward for the discussion, etc.; Tusi military merit compensation, record the Tusi officers and soldiers reward military merits, compensation for casualties and regulations. ”

"Lord Ka, the lower officials are presumptuous." This is addressed to the Manshangshu Kadahun.

"Fu is polite, but there is something to say!" Kadahun admires Li Jiqi, the Han Shangshu, very much, and has a long face in front of everyone for their military department!

"The Ministry of Labor's military quarters generally include: the preparation of gunpowder, the manufacture of lead bullets, the manufacture of arquebuses, the casting of artillery at artillery positions, the setting up of kilns to burn charcoal, all military equipment, miscellaneous, the destruction of artillery emplacements, the manufacture of mines and fireballs, the manufacture of leather clothing, the preparation of explosives, the preparation of crossbows, the repair of roads, the construction of bridges, the manufacture of ferries, and so on. It includes the material standards, processes and expenses required for ordnance production. Many of them are detailed, so don't go into details. If gunpowder is configured, what is the geometry of nitrate, sulfur and willow charcoal ash? How much does the appliance artificially combine with silver? How much firewood is used per 100 catties of nitrate? How much does gunpowder cost per catty? If so, etc., do not tire of details, and in terms of firearms, the minister is really not as good as 'Tang Taichang', please ask the emperor to inquire about it from time to time. ”

"I see." Fu Lin was very moved and agreed.

"The old minister is ashamed!" Tang Ruowang, who had not spoken, immediately got up, bowed to the emperor more emotionally, and also bowed to Li Jiqi below.

"Tang Lao Marfa is really too humble! When I was a jinshi in the previous dynasty, I knew your great talent, but it's a pity...... Please also help the Qing Dynasty and benefit all the people in the world! Li Jiqi was also a little emotional, but he instantly restrained himself and continued to speak.

"The three military quartermasters that the minister just discussed are actually just at the mercy of each performing its own duties. If we want to unify the dispatch and control of all kinds of military supplies, we also need a detailed list of names. This errand must be carried out by the collective efforts of all ministries and institutes. The minister implored the emperor to decree that he should choose a virtuous person and draw it from it. ”

"Well, that's right."

"The minister is presumptuous, although the second son of the emperor is young. However, the sky is auspicious, and it is unprecedented-Mulan plays martial arts, and she is shocked; Accusing rakshasa and righteous words; The five flags of the clan are convincing to everyone; Mention the imperial servant, benefit in the Qing Dynasty! All this, please also ask the emperor to use people without suspicion and make the best use of their talents! ”

"I ...... I know......" Fulin didn't expect Li Jiqi to talk about his royal family, a little unclear, but he heard everything he said, and his heart was moved.

"Master Li has an overreputation, Xuan Ye is ashamed!" Hongyi, who has always been an "observer", can only clasp his fists and salute, but he is very surprised in his heart-

This Li Jiqi is silent, how can he not hide everything from his eyes, and list the small "credits" he has since crossed in a few words? And the list is very learned. They were explained from the four perspectives of "military equipment, righteousness, clan, and Qing Dynasty". If you analyze it in depth. Doesn't it mean that he can cover "civil governance, martial arts, and imperial subjects"? If the emperor's "little father" figured it out, he was indeed talented! But if you want to be crooked, your life will be at your disposal!

"The minister has nothing else to say! Please the emperor's holy judgment! After Li Jiqi finished speaking, the flickering in his eyes finally dimmed. It's like the small universe in my heart is gradually extinguished. returned to the "true color" of melancholy and grievance.

"Good! Fu Xian is a great talent. What a blessing for me! Come on, Li Jiqi, the secretary of the Ministry of Reward, is dazzled, and he doubles the salary! "Fulin was overjoyed. Be generous! This time it caused a sensation among the Manchurian Hanchen!

It turned out that in the Qing Dynasty, the flower feather was an important symbol of "distinguishing the prestige and showing the rank", which was not worn by ordinary officials, and its role was to show the rank and reward military merits. Since the Qing Dynasty, the emperor's Taiji and welfare have been repeatedly ordered, neither can the hairpin exceed the duty and wear it in vain, but also can not wear it at will, if there is a violation, it will be strictly punished.

Especially at the beginning of the Qing Dynasty, the rules were stricter: only members of the royal family whose titles were lower than those of the prince, the prince of the county, the beyson of Baylor and the Gulun (that is, the husband of the princess born to the queen) were eligible to wear the "three-eyed flower"; In the clan and the domain, the relatives and nobles who were named the princes of the town or the auxiliary princes, and the husbands of the princesses born to the concubines (that is, the husbands of the princesses) were eligible to wear the "double eye feather"; The ministers of the interior above the fifth rank, the commanders and staff of the forward battalion and the guard battalion (the people who hold these positions must be from the three flags of Manchuria inlaid with the yellow flag, the positive yellow flag, and the positive white flag) are eligible to wear the "one-eyed flower feather", while the foreign ministers are not given the flower feather. It can be seen from this that the flower feather is a unique crown ornament of the high-ranking princes and nobles of the Qing Dynasty, and even within the clan, the flower feather must not be overly abused; The relatives and nobles who are eligible to wear the flower feather must pass the necessary riding and shooting examinations at the age of ten before they can wear it. But later, the rewards of flower feathers gradually increased, just like the Qing court drama often rewarded with dazzling eyes.

But since Shunzhi, it is unheard of for Hanchen, who has been awarded a first-class product, to enjoy the treatment of the clan!

"Thank you." Li Jiqi is still very calm!

Hongyi noticed that everyone below shook their heads at Li Jiqi's performance, and probably sighed that this person was too withdrawn.

Seeing that Wu Liangfu personally respectfully replaced Li Jiqi with "dazzling eyes", Fulin returned to the topic:

"Dear Aiqing, what you have said today is very true. Oh, I was negligent for a moment, and there were two more who didn't talk about it. Tang Lao Marfa, what do you think? ”

"The minister is just for inquiry, and he doesn't dare to trespass." Tang Ruowang eats all in the Ming and Qing dynasties, and the Manchus and Han are all friends, and the way to protect one's self on this general occasion is no worse than anyone else.

"Old Marfa is too modest. When it comes to firearms and munitions, you should be the only one! Fu Lin knew that John Tang was acting for many first-class masters standing below, after all, he had been outstanding many times, and he was only a second-class player so far.

"Commandment. As Li Shangshu said, if you want to make a detailed list of military supplies, the minister must cooperate with the lord in charge and do his best, and there must be no omission or negligence. John Tong didn't get involved in the distribution of interests among the various ministries that he thought were intricate.

"Okay, with Old Marfa's words, I will be relieved." Fu Lin admired John Tang's detachment, in his eyes, this is the "loyalty to the monarch and love the Lord" after abandoning the difference between the Manchus and the Han Dynasty and the dispute between friends and parties!

"Oh, by the way, there's another person I want to hear about too. Tell me about it. Fu Lin turned sideways, not forgetting the scholar who had been working the bookcase under the imperial stairs.

"Huh!" Folding Kune calmly put down his pen and bypassed the bookcase, and then replied aloud:

"The slave thought that Tang Lao Marfa was proficient in firearms, although he came from the West, he was loyal to the master, and he had made outstanding contributions and won the favor of the saints. Our Qing Dynasty has the four seas, and anyone who admires China and is loyal to the Qing Dynasty can be the emperor's courtiers. None of us, who are slaves, shall not harbor prejudices and fail to live up to God's grace. Today, Li Shangshu and Tang Taichang often said that the lower officials are quite taught! ”

This sentence seems to praise John Tang and Li Jiqi, but it is criticizing those Hanchen who do not work hard, and in turn encapsulates Li Jiqi's consistent negative emotions. When Hongyi heard this, he suddenly became a little excited - in the words of later generations, this guy is an "objective and fair" person!

"Well, I see. But I'm asking you to talk about what you're talking about today, and it doesn't matter. Although Fulin agreed with this, because he took care of Li Jiqi's emotions, he did not give Zhekune any positive or negative comments.

"Huh! The minion wants to play two pieces. ”

"Accurate!"

"Thank you, Emperor! First, the slave was also ordered to go to North Korea, so he paid attention to the investigation along the way, only to know that although North Korea is a vassal country, it has always been between the Qing Dynasty and the Wa Kingdom, and it is annoying! ”

"Why?" When Fulin heard the word "Wa Guo", he couldn't help but feel moved, remembering that day Xuanye was "entrusted with a dream", and Emperor Taizu Nu ~ Erhachi said that "If the Wa Guo is not removed, my heart is uneasy", and hurriedly asked.

Even Hongyi, who was on the side, was also very interested when he heard this, and stared straight at Zhekune and waited for the following. (To be continued......)
