192. Spring is a retreat
192. "'chūn'", "'sè'", "'yù'" 阑休retreat
It's a blessing or a curse, it's a curse that can't be avoided! And Yang Du also said that Chen Kuilong played this hand "Li Dai Tao Stiff", and the "cào" dish was Wang Yixuan of Qingjun.
In addition to being afraid of his wife, this prince also has a dead "xùe" greedy for money. Whoever asks for him, he must pay the benefit fee, even the king of heaven and Lao Tzu has to scrape off three taels of gold dust. Otherwise, there is no "mén"! When the Gengzi Kingdom changed, Cen "''chūn'" Xuan was meritorious, and he visited Yixuan at the behest of Lafayette, and he couldn't even enter the big "'mén'" of the Qingwang Mansion if he didn't give the "''mén'" bag!
At the end of the Qing Dynasty, there were two "companies" that enjoyed a good reputation for a while, and their business was very special, specializing in selling official beards. It's all related to this prince
One is called "Lao Qing Ji Company", which is located in the residence of Prince Qing and is a wholly-owned company of Yixiao. It is said that there is a brocade box on Yixuan's desk, which contains a list of officials and a list of vacancies. He will give the gift to the visitor according to the importance of the gift.
The other is called "Qingna Company", which is a joint venture company jointly established by Yi Liang and his son Zai Zhen, as well as the Minister of Military Aircraft Na Tong, who has a common hobby.
Yuan Shikai aimed at Yixuan's hobby, and did everything possible to make him his internal support in the court. Later, Yuan Shikai dug up the corners of the Qing government, formed a party in the army, and mixed sand on the ground. Therefore, the iron hat king who was finally awarded by the Qing court was still a great hero who buried the Manchu Qing Dynasty.
Of course, the death of the Qing Dynasty basically had no impact on Comrade Yixuan. In 1911, when the government of Beijing was in turmoil, his deposits in HSBC alone reached 2 million taels. With these huge sums of money, where is not the life of the prince?
I don't know how much pillow wind Fujin blew, and I don't know how much silver Chen Kuilong used, Yixuan was able to rush Zhao Erxun, who had just been reappointed as the governor of Huguang from the position of governor of Sichuan five months ago, back to Sichuan!
Sun Yuanqi asked, "Huizi, when will Chen Xiaoshi be transferred to the governor of Huguang?" Did you receive an official document in the "mén"? ”
Yang Du shook the folding fan in his hand, "Chen Xiaoshi's transfer to the governor of Huguang is just a rumor in the officialdom, and it has been said for many years, but the Ya ''mén' has not yet received the letter. ”
Lin Shu was still a little unconvinced, "Since it is a rumor, it may not be accurate!" After all, Zhao Cishan has been in Hubei for less than half a year, how can he be transferred back to Sichuan? As the saying goes, military aircraft are like clouds, and the inner palace is like the wind. Even if Prince Qing is full of tricks and clever tongues, as long as the head of the palace doesn't agree, it's not an empty word? ”
Sun Yuanqi said, "Mr. Weilu, I'm afraid this rumor is not empty talk. I was in Beijing, and when I heard what my uncle meant, it seemed that I really wanted to transfer Chen Xiaoshi over. Now we should think about how to deal with it, it is only right! ”
Yang Du put down the folding fan and carefully analyzed, "It's still the New Year's Festival, and Zhao Cishan has not been in Huguang for a long time, and it is unlikely that the will of the imperial court will come down before the opening of the seal on the twentieth day of the first month." Device: No advertisements, full text, but Chen Xiaoshi's edict as the governor of Sichuan was issued in July and August last year, and he entered Beijing in October to face His Majesty. According to the laws of the Qing Dynasty, officials must arrive three months after leaving Beijing. Now that three months have passed, Chen Xiaoshi naturally does not dare to delay it for too long, and has been stranded in Guizhou. Based on this calculation, it can be concluded that the will of the imperial court will be issued at the end of the first month and the beginning of February. Time is ticking! ”
Chen Qiansheng, who had not spoken, opened his mouth at this time and said, "Then Chen Kuilong is still far away in Guizhou, and when he receives the edict, he will rush from Guizhou to Wuchang, how can it be in March or April?" Two or three months, it's enough to do anything! ”
"Brother Zhongfu may not know the rules of officialdom very well. We did nothing until the edict was issued, because the old governor was still there, and the new governor could not say anything. Moreover, the former governor knew that he was leaving office soon, and in line with the principle of 'having the right not to use it, it will be invalid when it expires', and he was happy to make a lot of "mén" in many cases. This is tacitly approved by officialdom. ”
Unlike Chen Qiansheng's poor family background and unrecognized fame, Liu Shipei was born in a family of scholars, and his ancestors all studied and studied for three generations, and he still knows quite well about the basic rules of officialdom, "But once the edict comes, even if the original governor leaves office, he is only acting for the time being. This is a taboo in officialdom, and Zhao Cishan will not help with this. So, we only have more than ten or twenty days. ”
"What is more than ten or twenty days? Don't forget, the office of the "mén" will not be opened until ten days later! Zhang Shizhao added.
After such calculations, Sun Yuanqi found that his effective working time was only a few days! It's no wonder that during the Chinese New Year, the boss rushed himself to Hubei in a hurry, and the time was really not enough.
Sun Yuanqi thought about it for a while, then knocked on the table and said, "Everyone, now that time is pressing, I won't be polite to you." I hope you can try your best to "chōu" in the next few days to help me. ”
Everyone agreed in unison.
"First of all, Xingyan and Zhongfu, the two of you will count the expenses of last year's 'mén' and each school, plus some plans for this year, and draw up a financial budget. Note that each fee is 30% more! ”
Sun Yuanqi is now busy with automobile research and development and the construction of an iron factory, and the original seemingly rich million US dollars are really evenly distributed among various projects, and it feels like tearing down the east wall and making up the west wall. If there is another problem with the school funds in Hubei, Sun Yuanqi really can't think of any remedial measures.
Moreover, the official title of the governor of Huguang is the governor of Hubei, Hunan and other places, the governor of military affairs, food and salary, and the governor, in addition to military and government affairs, he is also in charge of financial power, he wants to give himself small shoes to wear, cut the funds of the new-style school to build the old-style academy, and he has nowhere to recite the scriptures!
Seeing that Zhang Shizhao and Chen Qiansheng agreed, Sun Yuanqi said again, "Mr. Weilu and Uncle Shen, the two of you have summarized the vacancies in the teachings, school superintendents, and vacancies in our ya'mén' since the beginning of the previous year, and strive to list the list of candidates, so as to ensure that they can be printed and released when the ya'''mén' starts working!" ”
finally said to Yang Du, "Huizi, you help me prepare an official document." When we first came to Hubei, didn't we order the province's primary and secondary schools to unify textbooks within two years? Now a year and a half have passed, we don't have to wait any longer, just order reunification! ”
In case after Chen Xiaoshi came, he came to "'cháo'" to add the Four Books and the Five Classics to it, wouldn't it be a waste of all his previous efforts?
That's all Sun Yuanqi could think of for the time being, and after speaking, he asked, "Do you have anything to add?" ”
Everyone basically didn't expect Chen Xiaoshi to have any trouble, and they didn't think much about it, so they naturally didn't have any ideas for a while. Seeing that no one else spoke, Yang Du cleared his throat and said, "Baixi, there is one more thing to do, which is to clean up all kinds of societies, societies, and groups in the province. ”
"Oh?" Sun Yuanqi was a little surprised, why Yang Du suddenly mentioned this issue.
Chen Qiansheng, who has always been indifferent, also had a solemn face when he heard this.
Yang Du continued: "In October 1907 last year, Chen Xiaoshi returned to Guiyang to sweep the tomb, and heard that Zhang Bailin and Zhou Peiyi of the Fazheng School had established an autonomous society. Because Pang Qian'an tried his best to preserve, Chen Xiaoshi failed to do so, thinking that he still had this thorn in his heart!
"Since Zeng Wenzhenggong and Zuo Wenxianggong, we have always been the first to open up the world. Nowadays, the new-style school and the new-style army are the leaders in the country, and the "cháo" of Western thinking is flooded in the meantime, and various societies, societies, and groups are lined up. Like Xiang Shuai and Zhao Cishan, Huan Hai has been up and down for many years, so he naturally knows the truth of Xu Xu Tuzhi. Chen Xiaoshi is young and vigorous, and this time he came, eight or nine times out of ten he would take this matter first!
"Once Chen Xiaoshi makes a move, it will inevitably involve a large number of students. In this way, it is very detrimental to the students, the school, and the envoys. Therefore, we have to preemptively start with him, clean up in advance, and minimize all kinds of risks! ”
This matter was quite scratching, and Sun Yuanqi suddenly didn't know how to start, so he had to say, "Let me think about it." ”
Early the next morning, Sun Yuanqi put on his official uniform and brought gifts to the Huguang Governor's Mansion to meet Zhao Erxun. It is also a matter of etiquette to go abroad for three or four months, and report to the boss in time when you come back.
Looking at Zhao Erxun, who was a little clear, thinking of his brothers' ox fork and sad urging, Sun Yuanqi was quite emotional.
As a feudal official, the governor is also in charge of military and political powers, and is the supreme administrator who governs one or several provinces. When the Qing Dynasty was prosperous, the emperor was quite confident in his majesty, so the governor was full of Han and Han people. Since the frequent military incidents in the Jiaqing period, the children of the Eight Banners were unusable, and the Han people began to occupy an important position in the army. And the emperors are not as good as the generation, and in order to consolidate the power, the governors deliberately use more Manchurians. However, how could the rise of the Han people be stopped by the children of the Eight Banners who ate "yù" in brocade? Nowhere is this more evident than in the Governor-General's office. After Xianfeng, the Han people appeared successively
The father and son governors Cen Yuying and Cen "chūn" Xuan, very coincidentally, they both served as governors of Yunnan and Guizhou;
Brother governors such as Zeng Guofan, Zeng Guoquan, Li Hongzhang, Li Hanzhang, Zhang Zhiwan, Zhang Zhi'dòng', as well as Zhao Erxun and his younger brother Zhao Erfeng in front of him. Among them, Zeng Guofan and Zeng Guoquan both served as governors of Liangjiang, Li Hongzhang and Li Hanzhang both served as governors of Liangguang, and Zhao Erxun and Zhao Erfeng were twice re-elected as governors of Sichuan;
Uncle and nephew governors Li Hongzhang, Li Hanzhang and Li Jingxi.
There are also two types of governors: high and low. The high match is from the first grade, and generally carries the title of a member of the Central Military Commission similar to today's Central Military Commission, and the right capital of the Imperial History of the Metropolitan Procuratorate is similar to that of a member of the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection; The lower configuration is from the second grade, with the right "shì" Lang of the military department similar to the title of alternate member of the Central Military Commission, and the right deputy of the Metropolitan Procuratorate is similar to the title of alternate member of the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection. But in any case, it is a high authority, and when it comes out, it will carry a sedan chair and sound the gong to open the way; Entering is Wenwu Luobai, surrounded by wives and concubines. The most majestic!
But after Xianfeng in the Qing Dynasty, the governor became a high-risk profession, and there were countless ways to die! There are not too many people who died of illness in office, and those who "committed suicide" are not counted as Heng "chūn", the governor of Huguang, Wu Wenrong, and the governor of Zhili, Yulu, and those who were chopped by the Qing government themselves, such as He Guiqing, the governor of Liangjiang, and the rest of the ways to die
assassinated Ma Xinyi, governor of Liangjiang;
fell to the death of Luo Huandian, the governor of Yunnan and Guizhou;
was captured and died in a foreign land, Ye Mingchen, the governor of Liangguang;
was killed by the Taiping army, and Lu Jianying, the governor of Liangjiang;
was rebelled by Yunnan and killed Pan Duo, the governor of Yunnan and Guizhou;
was killed by the Eight-Nation Alliance, acting governor of Zhili, Ting Yong;
was killed by the revolutionary army "'nòng"The governor of Sichuan, Zhao Erfeng, and the acting governor of Sichuan, Duanfang;
and Yang Shixiang, the governor of Zhili, whose cause of death is unknown.
is also the governor, and most people chose to flee Ruicheng, Zhang Renjun, and Zhang Mingqi, and the younger brother in front of him, Zhao Erfeng, the governor of Sichuan, died very tragically and was directly beheaded by the revolutionary army. Isn't this a tragedy?
How did Zhao Erxun know Sun Yuanqi's feelings, and after seeing the ceremony, he asked with concern, "You came from Beijing, have you seen Shouzhou Zhongtang?" Is he healthy? ”
Sun Yuanqi hurriedly bowed down and replied, "Lord Laoshitai asked, my uncle and grandfather are quite strong, but they can't see the wind. When the weather warms up, you should be able to get out and walk around. ”
Zhao Erxun nodded, "Shouzhou Zhongtang is the emperor's senior residence, and he is over eighty years old and healthy, which is really exciting!" Then he said, "Baixi, you have been abroad for a few months, you should rest for a few more days when you come back, and by the way, accompany Shouzhou Zhongtang, the matter on the ground in Hubei is not in a hurry." ”
The two gossiped for a while, and Sun Yuanqi explained his intentions, "Lord Taiwan, the lower officials are a bit mundane, I don't know if it's okay?" ”
