In the Chuxiu Palace, Hongfeng tucked the quilt corner for the Queen Mother, and when she heard the Queen Mother's question, she couldn't help but laugh, and worked while talking, and her hands were very sharp, "The slave and maid know this, and the mother is asking Yu Blind," she also shook the book basket, "But the slave and the maid thought, the name is always the more auspicious and the better, the better, this is right."

"You're right," the Queen Mother said with a smile, she stretched her waist, "It's easy to understand and it's good, it's not a simple matter, what's the name?" Peaceful? Taiping? No, Taiping Bank, it feels like a dead man's place, so is it auspicious? And not aviation, get rich? Fortune? It's too earthy, it's vulgar, this name should be thought about," she turned her head and watched as the red maple turned off the electric lights in the hall, leaving only a small lamp on the kang table, dim and yellow, the queen mother's eyes were shining under the light, she was not too sleepy, so she pulled the red maple to chat, "These days, is there any news in the palace?" Tell me about it, too, lest I don't know anything in the palace. ”

Hongfeng knew that the queen mother was going to talk like this before going to bed, so she babbled about what Shufangzhai's jasmine was very good, and said that the peony there was open and Yao Huang, which was very good-looking, many palaces are now empty, but there are many more pigeons and swallows, and the eunuchs and palace maids are bored, and they are looking for millet to feed, generally speaking, the queen mother just listens, and will not ask anything, but this time she asked, "How empty is the palace?" ”

"Yes," Hong Feng said, "Didn't the concubines all go to Shoukang Palace and Cining Palace, there are only a few noble concubines left in the palace, and there is not empty there," she suddenly realized something at this time, and stopped talking, "The slave is really talkative." ”

"It's empty," Empress Dowager Cixi sighed slightly, "There are only a few concubines of Yingzong, not many, this time they are all brought to the Old Summer Palace, they are widowed at a young age, and they live like the living dead in the palace, it is not easy, they are all taken to the Old Summer Palace to play, evacuated and evacuated, and the mood is better, the palace is so empty, the emperor will choose a concubine next, and the palace will be lively," she thought of something at this time, "Hurry up, the daughter called Guixiang, the one named Jingfen, will enter the palace the day after tomorrow, Let me see. "This time, I want to take a good look and ask, and I can't just mix it up like before.

"Yes, yes!" Hongfeng said softly, "Niangniang, it's not too early, you have to wake up tomorrow, it's time to rest early." ”

The Queen Mother snorted, "I have a difficult matter in my heart solved today," she closed her eyes with satisfaction, "I should be able to sleep well." ”

A night of sleepless sleep until the morning, after getting up to freshen up and dress up, on the refreshed from the Chuxiu Palace, to the Yangxin Palace to handle government affairs, in the morning first to see the palace to see the officials, said a conversation, and then approved a while of the fold, lunch is in the Yangxin Palace, after eating a nap, so called the big up, this time is a very large scale to call up, the clan nobles, the cabinet scholars, the Minister of Military Aircraft and the six ministries, transportation, railways, posts and telecommunications, the Ministry of Education, the Academy of Sciences, the Qing Bank, The fifteenth secretary of the General Administration Department and the servants of the general administration department were all in the press, as well as the governors and governors in Beijing, Li Hongzhang and Zai Ling were naturally also present to discuss Hu Xueyan's "request for the issuance of new currency, the supervision of ticket numbers and the establishment of new bank folds".

The ministers of military aircraft stayed up all night, and revised this excerpt perfectly many times, and finally finalized it, and the big guy who issued the new currency has long known, but this regulatory ticket number and the new bank are really unheard of, so Hu Xueyan explained again, capital must find its own agent in politics, Yan Jingming has a good relationship with Shanxi Jin merchants, but he knows that he can't abolish official affairs because of personal relations, so he won't care about some personal contacts, but others are not exempt from vulgarity, and nothing else is just, The new bank is cut off from the financial route, and the supervision of the ticket number is simply to ask the businessmen to hang themselves, Rao is military aircraft department has agreed, but these people outside are boiling, noisy and non-stop, the big guys know that the queen mother sitting on the throne is a reasonable person, and will not be angry and guilty because of the debate for no reason, so they talk exaggeratedly and have been debating endlessly, insisting that it is absolutely impossible to "set up a bank to compete with the people" and not to supervise the ticket number to "poison industry and commerce", and accused Hu Xueyan of "harboring evil intentions and faking public affairs for personal gain", and criticized Yan Jingming for "not seeking political affairs in his position" can't manage the Daqing Bank well, and sarcastically mocked the "corpse vegetarian meal" of the Military Aircraft Department headed by Prince Li. It was so bustling, it was noisy for a long time, and it didn't stop until dusk, after all, the businessmen who were engaged in the financial industry, including the Jin merchants, could influence the imperial court, which was an obvious thing.

Li Hongzhang is very smart, he will never say anything at this time, say support, then he will apologize to Hu Xueyan softly, life in the world, the most important thing is face, with a former subordinate defeated, where is my Li Hefei's face going? If you refute this fold, the first thing is to evil the center, but also to offend the queen mother, and to be ridiculed by the world will be revenged, so many years, and still let go of the former enemy, both sides are not pleased, it is better not to say, just close your eyes and recuperate, when Prince Li asked, he just said that he was not very proficient in this matter, or asked the center to be the master, so lightly blocked. However, Zai Ling was young and vigorous, and helped Hu Xueyan start the debate, so that at dusk and sunset, the last one was finished, there was nothing to quarrel about, and she didn't speak, but the Queen Mother, who was listening to the big guys arguing, spoke leisurely: "Since the big guys have so much opposition, then let's try it first!" ”

The ministers were shocked, is there any causal relationship between these two sentences? There are so many people who oppose it, why do you have to try it out? "The big guy's meaning is good, but now, we are ready to send it, the new currency is bound to be issued, and the other two things are done in conjunction with the new currency, we are now in the Qing Dynasty," the Queen Mother's face showed a sad look, "Poor!" ”

"The poor don't have any silver, if they don't issue new coins, I'm afraid that next year, there won't be much silver available, when the mountains and rivers are exhausted, they can't send out money, and the soldiers have no food, is it possible that I want to learn from Emperor Wenzong again, and Baba melted the bronze cranes and bronze lions in the Old Summer Palace to cast money? But there aren't many bronze lions in the Old Summer Palace! (To be continued.) )
