Van Buzheng also followed, sneaky.

Jia Liu, who was sulking, couldn't help but glance at him: "You had an affair with Yonghui?" It's all your own people, if you really want to do this, I'll say hello to Director Ding when I go back, charge you one hundred and eighty taels, and you can write a 500-word guarantee, and forget it. ”

The prime minister can hold the boat in his belly, and long live the emperor.

"Your Majesty, this is the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain,"

Fan Buzheng was angry, "Besides, since the minister joined the work, the family has not been one hundred and eighty taels!" ”

"No, you've been in government for more than half a year, what about your salary?"

Fan Wei was exceptionally promoted from the prefect of Baoding to the government of Zhili, with an annual legal salary of 155 taels, and at least 8,000 taels of incorruptible silver according to the regulations of the imperial court.

In other words, Fan Wei has been in politics for most of the past six months, and his annual legal income is at least more than one million.

So, how can there be no money.

"Your Majesty, hasn't you forgotten that the salaries of officials above the second grade are paid by the household department?"

Fan Wei looked aggrieved, and the ghost family did not deal with the court, so since he became a political envoy, he has not been paid a dime of salary from the household department.

It is better to be able to pay wages from the treasury of Baoding.

Moreover, after he served as the prefect of Baoding, he had to send his salary to Linqing every month to raise the orphans of the Changsheng Army who died against the Qing Dynasty, and also gave some subsidies to the poor relatives in his hometown.

Since becoming an official, he has not been corrupt, so how can that salary be enough, he is really poor.

In the political office of Zhili, the degree of slamming the door is comparable to that of Hao Shuo, the governor of Jiangxi, so that Yang Jingsu, the governor of Zhili, can't stand it, and privately sponsors him for 1,000 taels.

As a result, after the 1,000 taels arrived, Fan Wei directly sent the remittance slip to Shandong to help the villagers.

It's really a breeze on both sleeves.

Yang Jingsu sighed to the left and right: "I don't want to have a clean official in the meeting." ”

If it weren't for the fact that Van Buzheng was single-handedly promoted by the prince, Lao Yang would have already figured out a way to overthrow him.

"So you've been working for nothing for most of the year? ... That's not right. ”

Jia Liu was a little embarrassed, and said that when he returned to Xiangyang to discuss meritorious deeds, he would first squeeze one hundred and eighty taels from the treasury and let Fan Wei spend it first.

After all, he is also the largest province in the Qing Dynasty, and his salary is still paid normally.

Instead, he asked what Fan Wei wanted to say when he came over.

Fan Wei straightened his face and said, "Your Majesty, regarding the era name, the minister thinks that the Meiji era name that Director Ji just drew up is very good. ”

"Huh? What's so good? ”

Jia Liu asked Fan Buzheng to speak carefully.

Van Mah said two good things.

First, Meiji is the meaning of the Ming monarch's rule of the world, combined with the administration of the ghost family in various places, and the development of industry, the revitalization of the local economy, and the reduction and exemption of taxes, all of which are benevolent for the benefit of the people and the common people, so it is in line with the fact that the Ming monarch is in line.

The second and most important point is that the name "Meiji" alludes to the meaning of the Qing Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty, and it vaguely contains the meaning that the Lord of the Oni family is actually after Zhu Ming.

In this way, the name "Meiji" can effectively win over and divide the Xinghan army that opposed the Qing Dynasty and restored the Ming Dynasty, and lay a good foundation for the two sides to resolve their differences through negotiation.

"There are indeed many benefits to this era name, but due to force majeure factors and personal emotional reasons, it is better for me to choose another era name,"

Jia Liu looked at Fan Wei, who obviously had something to say, "Don't go around the bush with me, what do you want to say to me?" ... Say it boldly, if it's wrong, I won't cut you off... Really, when did I become an existence in your eyes that you didn't dare to say to your face? ”

"Your Majesty alone, this is enough to be called Mingjun!"

Fan Wei took a deep breath, and then asked what he was most concerned about, "The minister dared to ask Your Majesty, who do you want to set up as the queen!" ”

"Immediately?"

The dog-headed military division's question made Jia Liuyi unable to answer it for a while, because he really hadn't thought about it.

Not negligence, but really forgot.

Where there is yin, there is yang, there is male, there is female, and if there is emperor, there is queen.

He has already been proclaimed emperor, and the world is about to enter a new era, and the subjects must be most concerned about the queen.

Since ancient times, the selection of the queen has not been a matter of the emperor's family, but the official affairs of the world.

At the moment, Jia Liu has five women.

The first is to give birth to her eldest daughter, Wen Jing Ruxiu;

the second is Yuanyuan, who gave birth to her eldest son, Keqing;

the third is Chunhua, the daughter of Bo Qing's forehead;

the fourth is Wu Qinglian, who was given to him by Wang Kangwang, the former political envoy of Gansu;

The fifth is Yuying, a noble man who was given to him by the old rich man from the palace.

Each of the five women has a background.

From the body, Ruxiu, Chunhua, and Yuying are all from Manchuria.

In terms of dignity, such as Xiu is the letter of the king's mansion, it must be the most expensive.

Chunhua's father Bo Qing's forehead is not only the governor of Huguang, but also the vice president of the Communist Association, although he is an illegitimate daughter, but it is also more expensive.

】

Yuying is Qianlong's obedient nobleman, and according to the etiquette, such as Xiu, this character is even more noble.

Yuanyuan and Wu Qinglian are both Han girls, Yuanyuan's father is a "traitor", and Wu Qinglian is a poor woman who was sold by her parents since she was a child.

Therefore, theoretically, Jia Liu must be the queen of Ruxiu, who was born in Gege.

However, this is not in the political interest.

Because, Jia Liu's basic plate is the Han army and the green battalion, not the Manchurian and Mongolian Eight Banners.

With the development of the situation, the Xinjun Mansion behind Ruxiu has obviously become less important, and even the Manmeng Eight Banners, including Aixin Jueluo, are not important, but the Governor of Huguang behind Chunhua is very important.

Because, Bo Qing'er, the old man, is the veteran of the Communist Association, not only developed a large number of Manchurian and Mongolian Eight Banner members, but also has a great influence on the army.

Especially now, Bo Qing'e is one of the two governors who are the emperor of his son-in-law, and he is the first prime minister of the new government of Jia Liu, and his status can be said to be pivotal.

The family background of Shun noble Yuying is also very prominent, and he has a great influence in the Manchurian and Mongolian Eight Banners, and his eldest brother Fuqing is now in Nanjing for Jia Liu, the new brother-in-law, and is a reliable military elder in the Liangjiang region.

Of course, it is definitely impossible for Chunhua and Yuying to become queens, because both of them are "second marriages".

As the founder of the new Qing Dynasty, Jia Liu could not set up a second daughter as the queen, and at most give the second daughter a concubine treatment.

Wu Qinglian's background is even more humble, and she was directly excluded from the list of queen candidates, and she can't even be a concubine, so she can only be a concubine.

In this way, there is only one Ruxiu and Yuanyuan left on paper to compete.

One side is Manchurian orthodoxy, and the other side is Han orthodoxy.

Who to set up, Jia Liu couldn't make up his mind.

Because the two daughters have their own merits, that is, the advantages and disadvantages are similar.

After Li Ruxiu, with the work of civilizing the Eight Banners, a Manchurian queen will definitely not be accepted by the people of the world.

Li Yuanyuan is the wisest choice in the long run, but it is not the best person now.

After all, Jia Liu's surname is now Aixin Jueluo, where can he directly appoint the daughter of the leader of the "rebel" as the queen.

Quite tricky.

Since Fan Wei raised this question, Jia Liu naturally had to ask his opinion.

"Your Majesty is now the Emperor of the Manchu Dynasty, and it stands to reason that you should be the queen of the Lixin Palace... However, if the minister's opinion is for the long-term sake of the country, it should be the queen of the Gu family. ”

Van Wei did not hesitate to express his attitude.

Because this attitude is not held by him alone, but by the vast majority of the civil ministers and military generals around His Majesty.

"Your Majesty often says that Your Majesty's Qing Dynasty is different from the old Qing Dynasty of Qianlong, and also talks about the Qi and Han families, regardless of each other, and even makes the military and civilians voluntarily braid, and even has the intention of abolishing the city, which is a major innovation that has not been seen since the founding of the country..."

Fan Wei proposed that innovation is actually the source of productivity for the ghost family to make a fortune, so in the past, the Manchurian emperors were all set up Mongolians and Manchurian women as queens, and this old system must be abandoned, and the daughters of Han people must be changed to be in line with the general policy of innovation.

And this can also show that the Qing Dynasty is the real Qihan family, not the one that used to be on the lips.

Jia Liu was noncommittal about this, and he still couldn't make up his mind, he planned to ask Bo Qingyi and Li Shijie for their opinions.

Both of them were highly respected people in the association, and their opinions were taken together to form the opinions of the Kyojin Association.

As the honorary president, he still has to listen to the opinions of the association in this matter.

That is, whoever everyone says to appoint, he will appoint.

Fan Wei also knew that this matter was very important, and it was normal for the lord of the ghost family to make up his mind for a while, but he still went further: "Your Majesty now has a son, and it is the eldest son, and the eldest son has been the prince since ancient times, so the minister thinks that His Majesty's eldest son should be appointed as the prince, if the prince's mother is not the queen, I am afraid of chaos in the palace in the future." ”

After a pause, he spoke earnestly, "In this way, Your Majesty's most troublesome thing will also be solved." ”
