Yang Meng returned to Yunnan in early September, and it took more than half a month in western Yunnan, and it took nearly a month to go back and forth, mainly because the time on the road was too much, and Yunnan was mountainous, and the official road was extremely difficult to travel, and it was quite time-consuming to go back and forth.

Towards the end of October, Yang Meng returned to Kunming, and the new governor Li Xingyuan had not yet arrived, and the time arrangement was quite appropriate. Most of the officials above the fourth grade from all over Yunnan also came, and most of the rest were on the road.

There is no government affairs pressing, Yunnan officials rarely get together, while waiting for the new governor, Kunming City staged a good show of gangs and factions.

Yang Meng was not familiar with Yunnan officialdom, and his identity as a general of the Green Battalion was a bit rotten, and no one was willing to pay attention to him, so he was also happy to be idle, and turned around and squatted to Xishan. However, the old man was full of guests and friends every day, and the banquet in Kunming Yang Mansion was also continuous every day.

Since receiving the news that the new governor is coming, this group of Yunnan officials has been waiting for a month before Li Xingyuan has long come.

Welcoming the arrival of the new governor is a major event in Yunnan, and Yang Meng, the general of the green battalion, has no choice but to join the ranks of the driver.

Taking advantage of the fact that the new governor had not yet arrived, the officials in Yunnan also began to discuss with each other, Luo Tianchi of the West Road in western Yunnan said that he was not sick, and Xu Liuchen of the East Road was Baba's rush up and went to the junction of Yunnan and Guizhou to pick up the car.

"Luo Tianchi's old man, he thought that he could escape by saying that he was sick? Think beautifully! This time, the officials in Yunnan all suffered with that old Wangba, and without Yongchang's rebellion, we can at least be more comfortable.

It's good now, I don't know what kind of thing I came from, in case this new governor doesn't know the people of Yunnan. Aren't we running out of gut? ”

This is true. The return of western Yunnan is also annoying. On the contrary, it will be the next big, we will destroy them in one go, this time and again, it is really a broken leg! I heard that there is an abnormality in Myanmar, but I don't know what the situation is? ”

"Hey! It is said that Li Xingyuan is ruthless, this time the western Yunnan side is going to suffer, you in western Yunnan, you have to tighten your belt. Don't pull in your pants later. ”

"Dog! What to say? You're pulling your pants in! There are also a lot of officials in western Yunnan, what about him Li Xingyuan? Can he still dismiss all the officials in western Yunnan? Lend him a gut! ”

"Lord Yang, you are in Yunnan but this, and the third child in the family is a genuine green battalion general, what do you think about this?"

A group of Yunnan officials, worried about the affairs of western Yunnan, opened the conversation, and in a short time, the fire burned to Yang Shiqin.

"Me? I am the ambassador of copper salt, and I am also in charge of copper salt affairs in Guizhou and Sichuan. This huge stall is enough for me to be busy, and the affairs of western Yunnan. We can't take care of it. My third child? If the epidemic prevention camp is counted as a genuine green camp, then ...... Hehe......"

Yang Shiqin didn't take the bait, he was going to mix up with it, and he was going to compete with this gang of dogs, how boring it was.

"That's not what you said, you have the richest money there, and I'm afraid that there will be chaos again recently, so you can't pay some military food?"

"Military salaries? You think it's beautiful! All the silver in the salt class is in the copper class, and I am now poor, so you should think of it from other taxes! The two lessons of copper and salt don't ask you for money now, but our old Yang is kind, counting on scraping oil and water from me, and there is no door. ”

As soon as Yang Shiqin said this, the faces of several provincial officials changed, Yang Shiqin, who was in charge of the two courses of copper and salt, was a popular man in the imperial court, and the resurgence of Yunnan copper was also the top priority in Yunnan.

As for how the new governor will deal with the rebellion in western Yunnan, these people have a number in their hearts, Yunnan is a nest of right and wrong, and now whoever comes in will die, compared with Li Xingyuan's experience, his methods are also easy to predict.

As soon as Yang Shiqin's words turned, the officials in Yunnan immediately formed a small circle, and some things did not touch their own interests, but once they did, the rabbit would bite people.

Yang Meng, who was standing in the corner watching the play, secretly gave a thumbs up to the old man, Xu Ziwei is really a talent, what a wonderful idea! Before Li Xingyuan arrived, Yunnan officials were ready to give him a dismissal.

This Li Xingyuan also came a little bit, at noon, not a bit, the new governor's frame appeared in front of the governor's palace, after a group of Yunnan officials went up to salute.

Xu Liuchen, who temporarily took charge of the affairs of the Governor's Palace, handed over the Governor's Seal Letter and the Yunnan Governor's Seal Letter to the new Governor Li Xingyuan.

"Colleagues, the resurgence of the people in western Yunnan, we should give an explanation to the imperial court, what do you have to say?"

Above the lobby of the yamen of the Governor's Palace, after Li Xingyuan sat upright on the big case, he glanced at the Yunnan officials under the hall and asked slowly.

When these words reached the ears of the officials in Yunnan, it was like hearing a loud fart, and the civil unrest is now a nest of right and wrong, talking? How can you say that it is wrong, a fool only goes up to join in the fun!

"Your Excellency Governor, the responsibility for the affairs of Western Yunnan lies with Luo Tianchi alone, and his subordinates please kill Luo Tianchi."

Xu Liuchen and Li Xingyuan are world friends, and they are Li Xingyuan's uncles, otherwise they would not go to the junction of Yunnan and Guizhou to pick up the car, Yunnan is now a nest of right and wrong, and losing the official is a trivial matter, and if you don't get it right, you will lose your life, so it's better to find some scapegoats.

If you don't get it right, you will have the opportunity to leave Yunnan and be transferred to another place, as for the chaos in Yunnan, it is better to leave it to the wronged!

"Lord Xu, it's over! We all know what the cause of the incident in western Yunnan is, is it a bit far-fetched to blame Luo Tianchi, besides......"

The one in the hall was just about to refute Xu Liuchen, but Li Xingyuan directly interrupted.

"What is the cause of that, you can tell me, Ben Du really does not know."

"Uh......"

The one who opened his mouth was immediately blocked back, what do you say? Is it wrong to say that it is a move by the imperial court? As a subordinate official, criticizing the great affairs of the imperial court, that is a big crime!

"What? Can't say it? Then let me say, the Hui rebellion has been going on in Yunnan for a long time, the Hui Han conquest, and the government is biased, this is the reason, and now the rebellion in Burma and Ningbo has risen again, how should you deal with it? ”

Li Xingyuan went to the southwest this time, although he was promoted. But the affairs of Yunnan are not easy to handle. He didn't plan to stay in Yunnan much either. The return to chaos in Yunnan can only be done vigorously and resolutely.

"Impeach Luo Tianchi in the West Dao, dismiss Hengwen, the prefect of Yongchang, charge Chang Jingyun, the deputy general of Yongchang, and Liu Guimao, kill the prisoner of Yongchang, and Shen Jucheng of the Golden Rooster Regiment, and return all the property occupied by the Han people in Yongchang, and it is the right way to appease the grievances first.

The 19-year and 20-year cases of western Yunnan were tried together with the Yongchang massacre. The best policy is to punish the crime that should be punished, to appease the plausible and to eliminate the Burmese Rebellion. ”

is still the host Xu Liuchen, who seems to be the new governor.

But Xu Liuchen said this, but it caused the officials of various provinces in western Yunnan to be unslow, this old man is going to dig the ancestral grave! With such an implication, most of the officials in western Yunnan will be unlucky.

"Humph! Nineteen or twenty years, why didn't you Xu Liuchen turn over the old cases in the Jiaqing period? Dogs and sheep, they should be beaten and killed, and the green camp was not effective. Let the Han people everywhere organize group exercises and kill them back by order. Kill them, see if there is any chaos in Yunnan? ”

The one who spoke was one of the few Manchu ministers in Yunnan, Ai Xing'a, the assistant leader of the Yunnan Governor, who was very arrogant, and almost pointed at Xu Liuchen's nose and scolded.

"That's it! All right! Don't be angry, the chaos in western Yunnan should not be connived at or too strict. Yunnan Hui must first calm his heart, in order to slowly turn around, Xu seniors said well, the return of production can not be given to the Han, all the Han people in western Yunnan encroached on the return to the field of production, must be strictly ordered to return.

What the leader of the Aixing Association said is also good, the rebellion cannot be connived at, and the rebellion will be fiercely suppressed by the green camp. It's just a matter of military funding......"

After chatting for a long time, it was finally time to play meat, and the affairs of western Yunnan could not be fought without fighting, but this military fund was a problem, Yunnan's taxes were insufficient, and officials had to rely on the assistance of the provinces, and it would not be possible to quell the chaos without military spending. Open your mouth to the court, don't say whether the court will give it or not, just ask for money, and the court will give you an incompetent comment.

As soon as Li Xingyuan's words came out, the lobby instantly fell silent, and sure enough......

"Your Excellency the Governor, the treasury of the state capitals has no silver available, and this year's grain in Yunnan is also due to drought, a large-scale poor harvest, and military spending, the state capitals of Yunnan can pay out, but will the imperial court be exempted from next year's taxes?"

Li Xingyuan stretched out his hand to ask for money, but the officials in Yunnan did not give it in vain, so he handed over a few excerpts asking for tax exemption.

Now Li Xingyuan is sitting on wax, hand this up, it is better to ask the court for money! Asking for money will only get a bad review, and these things will be handed over, but it is the governors around Yungui who will be offended!

Yunnan asks for tax exemption, so Yunnan's next year's expenses have to come out of the co-pay, and the meat is taken from others, who can not be angry?

"Ambassador Yang, don't you have copper salt from Yunnan, Guizhou and Sichuan provinces? Presumably, hundreds of thousands of taels of silver can still be freed up, and the chaos in western Yunnan is uneven, and the copper and salt lessons over there are also affected! ”

If you say which one is the fattest in Yunnan, except for Yang Shiqin, the ambassador of Yunnan-Guichuan copper salt, there is no one who is rich, and this silver has to be scraped from him!

"Hundreds of thousands of taels? It's a small matter, I can come out here, but next year, if I don't lose the Yunnan copper excerpt, I have to hand it over by the Governor! ”

Yang Shiqin also did the same, a small book, which pressed on the big case in front of Li Xingyuan.

"You ......"

I didn't expect this Yang Shiqin to be more vicious, if this fold is on, the saint can immediately dismiss his official, the resurgence of Yunnan copper is far heavier than the chaos in western Yunnan, and the saint is waiting for next year's Yunnan copper! This fold goes up, it's no different from looking for death, this Yang Shiqin wants to borrow a knife to kill people!

"General Yang, it is said that you are the chief officer of the epidemic prevention battalion, and the epidemic prevention battalion in western Yunnan will also help!"

If you can't get Lao Tzu, you can get your son, Li Xingyuan is not polite, he will directly send Yang Meng to western Yunnan, and his son is not afraid that Yang Shiqin will not pay for the battlefield.

"Oh...... Epidemic prevention camp! Now except for those who are more than 800 years old and above, the rest of the young people have long been dispersed, and it is not bad to go to western Yunnan, at least these people are capable of boiling water, but this military salary is ......."

Yang Meng drooped his eyelids and replied slowly, what a dog! Dogs! As Xu Ziwei expected, this Li Xingyuan wanted to risk his own safety and threaten the old man.

"Scattered? That's the serious camp number of the green camp, how can you say that it will be scattered? Besides, if you are sixty years old or older, can you join the army? General Yang, this is the council hall of the Governor's Palace, and you must speak responsibly! ”

I didn't expect Lao Tzu to be vicious, this son is even more poisonous, this hasn't done anything yet! I was worried about the silver of Yunnan.

"This epidemic prevention camp was only built for epidemic prevention, according to the order of the former governor Lord He, at that time it was some old, weak, sick and disabled, and those who could be sent away had already been sent away, and the rest were all lonely and old, and they would starve to death if they drove these people away.

It's hard to be hungry, Lord Governor, let's make up the salaries of the epidemic prevention camp first! Not much, only four thousand taels! ”

After hearing this reply, Li Xingyuan had no choice but to continue to think of other ways.

"Everyone, the chaos in western Yunnan still has to be done, but it is difficult to move an inch without money, I don't know if you have a good way?"

"Yes! Donate! Although my Yang family has been short of money recently, I will contribute to quelling the chaos no matter what, and I will pay five hundred taels. ”

The words came from Yang Shiqin's mouth, and the silver ticket of five hundred taels was also pressed on the big case.

"Ah! It's still Lord Yang's method, there are tea merchants in western Yunnan, and a family of eighteen thousand taels is not serious, so this matter should be donated. ”

Yang Shiqin's method was supported by Manchen Aixing'a, and this one also shouted with a full face.

"Hmmm! That's the only way to do it, Aixing A co-leader is in charge of this matter, so let's stop here today! Tomorrow, we will be looking at the affairs of western Yunnan. ”

Donation, I'm afraid it's not a good way, just look at the faces of the Yunnan officials below, Yang Shiqin is difficult! (To be continued......)
