Chapter 257: Su Yu is the king! New era!

The death of Su Shun, Duanhua, and Zai Ling still caused an unprecedented impact.

Of course, in history, Su Shun and Duanhua also died, dying in the Xinyou coup.

But the situation is a little different, that is, because of the opposition to the two palaces of the queen mother to listen to the government.

In the eyes of the world, the queen mother of the two palaces is the king after all.

And this time, it was directly at the hands of Su Lu.

More directly, he died because he blocked Su Yu's new deal.

This puts the top Eight Banners nobles in danger, and it is completely sad that the rabbit is dead and the fox is sad.

The Empress Dowager Ci'an didn't feel anything at first, although Su Shun and Duanhua were her uncles, but they had never been intimate.

But this is not the same as in history.

History Duanhua and Su Shun looked down on the Queen Mother of the Two Palaces, repeatedly confronted, and even suppressed the Queen Mother of the Two Palaces.

In this world, in order to fight against Su Yu, most of Duanhua and Sushun still support the Empress Dowager Ci'an and serve him as the master.

Therefore, when the news of the death of the two came, the Empress Dowager Ci'an still fell into a trance.

……………………

Tomorrow will be the ancestor worship ceremony.

The host is still Prince Hui Mianyu.

He is not in good health now, so there are some things that have changed his mentality.

With Su Yao's successive victories on the battlefield, he fell into a certain panic.

As the elder of the imperial family and the emperor's uncle, he felt that he had an obligation to protect his ancestors.

For many things, he has always been able to hide and shrink.

At every turn, it is to close the gate of the palace.

Now that my health is not good, I feel a little less afraid and a little more responsible.

He had been thinking about a question.

Whether Su Yu is Dong Zhuo, whether he is Cao Cao, whether he will usurp the Qing Dynasty.

If yes.

As the elder of the royal family, does he have the responsibility and obligation to stop all this?

All along, though, he's been on retreat. He didn't know exactly how to stop it.

The best way he could think of was to force Su Yu to make an oath at the ancestor worship ceremony.

In front of the ancestors and ancestors, in front of the princes of the Eight Banners, in front of the queen mother of the two palaces, and in front of the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty.

I, Mianyu, as an elder of the royal family, ask you, will you usurp the throne in the future?

Su Yu definitely said no.

Then you swear.

In front of everyone and in front of the ancestors and ancestors, Ling Suyu will never usurp the throne.

All along, Su Yu has shown absolute authority.

If you say it, you will do it.

If you are not willing to swear, then your wolf ambitions will be revealed, and everyone will see your true colors.

If you're willing to take an oath, be sure to keep it.

If you break your oath, then you will become Sima Yi, completely ruined and discredited, and will be remembered for thousands of years.

This is already the best way that Mianyu can think of.

Moreover, he had already made up his mind that he must do so.

The big deal is that blood is splattered on the spot.

He will definitely go down in history.

However, the deaths of Su Shun, Duanhua, and Zailing brought him unprecedented shock.

Especially when he was watching the execution on the spot, a first assistant and an iron hat king, he killed when he said he would.

After watching the execution, he locked himself in his home and remained motionless.

Apparently making a final decision, whether to do it tomorrow or not according to the original plan.

And he didn't discuss this plan with anyone, not even Fu Jin and his son.

It can be said that he was very resolute before.

I even thought about how to die, the picture of crashing to death on the pillar.

After locking himself in the study for more than half an hour, he left the palace and handed a sign into the palace to ask to see the queen mother of the two palaces.

And the name is the Queen Mother of the Two Palaces.

At this time, the Yehnara clan was very careful and really didn't want to see anyone.

But Mianyu said that the stakes are very high, and it is related to Su Yu.

So, she had to wear loose clothes and summon Mianyu in Sanxi Hall with the Empress Dowager Ci'an.

Ci'an was in a trance and had no words.

Yehenara said, "What's wrong? ”

Mianyu said: "Queen Mother, after tomorrow's ancestor worship ceremony, is it going to officially reward Su Yao?" ”

Yehnara said, "Yes. ”

Mianyu said: "The merit is too great to exterminate the rebellion, and it must be greatly rewarded." Feng'en Zhen Guogong is further up, it is Beizi, Baylor. ”

Yehnara said, "Well, what's wrong? ”

Mianyu said: "However, if you don't love Xinjueluo, you can't canonize Beizi and Baylor." ”

Yehenara suddenly frowned, thinking about the deep meaning in his words.

However, the Empress Dowager Ci'an next to her said: "If you don't love Xinjueluo, you can't seal the town of Guogong, isn't Su Yu still sealed?" And Fukangan also sealed Beizi when he was alive. ”

Mianyu said: "Su Yu and Fukangan's situation is different, after all, he is a red belt Jueluo. ”

Empress Dowager Ci'an said, "What do you want to say?" ”

Mianyu said: "So, do you want to carry Su Yu into the clan?" Directly changed his surname to Aixin Jueluo. ”

Empress Dowager Ci'an said: "At this time, ...... toss this matter."

Then, she looked at Yehenara next to her, and the other party fell into a deep groan.

In a trance, she immediately sobered up a lot and began to think about the deep meaning behind this.

Does Mianyu really want to make Su Yu a clan? Did you change your surname to Aisin Jueluo?

No, of course not.

Just a temptation.

Do you have wolf ambitions?

If you want to usurp the throne, then it is justified to change your surname to Aisin Jueluo.

The Queen Mother of the two palaces glanced at each other.

After a long while, Yehenara said, "You can mention it and see if he agrees." ”

Suddenly, Mianyu immediately understood the position of the Empress Dowager Xi.

Although she and Su Yu are political allies, they definitely have a bottom line, after all, his own son is the emperor.

Mianyu said: "The slave obeys!" ”

…………………………

Next!

The ancestor worship ceremony will continue as usual.

All the civil and military officials in the capital, and all the princes of the Eight Banners, were all present.

At this time, the blood stains outside the noon gate had been cleaned, but when countless people passed through, they still faintly felt a smell of blood, and they felt that the unjust souls of Su Shun, Duanhua, and Zai Ling were hovering in the sky.

On the square outside the temple, it is dense, black and black, and they are all princes and ministers.

The magnificent ancestor worship ceremony was carried out meticulously.

The rebellion was almost one of the largest rebellions since the founding of the Qing Dynasty, second only to the rebellion of the three feudatories.

The losses and turmoil caused were even greater than those of the San Francisco Rebellion.

Now, the Hongyang rebellion has finally subsided completely.

Of course, I want to comfort the first emperor and the ancestors.

The host, Prince Hui Mianyu, is still reciting the text of worshipping the ancestors.

Sprinkle thousands of words.

Haoran righteousness, brilliant words.

It tells the hardships of the opening of the Eight Banners and the glory of the Qing Dynasty.

The first emperor is not easy, the queen mother of the two palaces is benevolent, and the little emperor is smart and courageous.

Finally, Su Yao's contribution is great.

After about half an hour, I finally finished reading it all.

Then, it's time to move on to the next agenda.

At this time, Mianyu's expression suddenly changed, she took a step forward, and shouted loudly: "Where is Su Yu?" ”

Su dragged out of the ranks!

Suddenly, the queen mother of the two palaces, the little emperor, the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty, and the princes and ministers all looked at Su Yu.

Prince Hui kept chanting in his heart, speaking out, speaking out.

The tablets of the ancestors and ancestors are here, and the souls of countless heroes and martyrs are here, Su Yu didn't dare to do anything.

Countless pairs of eyes were in full view, and he didn't dare to do anything.

asked him directly, Huo Guangyiyin, is he a loyal minister?

Will you usurp the throne one day?

If not, then you swear to be a loyal minister of the Qing Dynasty for the rest of your life.

Of course, Su Yao is such a hero, and if he is forced to ask like this, the person who asks will definitely not be good.

Hitting your head directly is the best choice.

It will definitely go down in history.

For the sake of the ancestors, I should do this.

Mianyu cheered herself up over and over again, motivated herself over and over again, and even looked at the pillar not far away.

The angle of how to hit and kill has already been thought about.

And Su Yu just looked at him quietly.

Mianyu shouted loudly: "Su Yu, you have made such great achievements, and now in front of the ancestors and ancestors, I am asking you one by one as a great sect, can you be willing to carry it into the clan?" Did you change your surname to Aisin Jueluo? ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone was in an uproar.

This...... Which one is this?

After shouting, Mianyu didn't know whether she was relieved or scolded for her incompetence.

After all, he still didn't dare to ask Su Yu in public, let alone let him swear to be a loyal minister of the Qing Dynasty forever.

But in the eyes of everyone, this picture is already very exciting.

Suddenly, the empress dowager of the two palaces, the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty, and the princes and ministers all stared at Su Yu, waiting for his answer.

Su Yu didn't hesitate and said bluntly: "No need." ”

Yehenala said: "Su Yu, others can't do it." But you are different, you have made such a great achievement, and you are also a Jueluo clan, so if you are brought into the royal family, the ancestors and the ancestors will also agree. ”

Su Yu said: "Thank you Empress Dowager Longen, but it's better not to break this rule." ”

Then, Su Yu didn't pull anymore and retreated directly.

Next, the ancestor worship ceremony continues.

The little emperor appears.

Follow the process and complete it meticulously.

A full few hours later, the ancestor worship ceremony ended.

The most important process is the end of the process.

And tomorrow's big court meeting is the highlight.

Because, Su Yu is going to be rewarded.

………………

The next day, the Great Pilgrimage Meeting.

"It is proposed to canonize Tian Yugong as the prime minister and the minister of the yamen."

The Queen Mother of the Two Palaces went straight to the point.

The last time Su Shun and others forced the palace, they wanted to dismiss Su Yu from the post of prime minister and dissolve the prime minister's yamen.

Gui Liang and Hua Shana could not bear the pressure and resigned from all positions in the prime minister's yamen.

Minister of Military Aircraft Wen Xiang resisted, so the Prime Minister's Yamen was not disbanded.

Now, the Prime Minister's Yamen will definitely be added.

Tian Yugong once won the foreigners and won glory for the country in the Fujian teaching case, so he officially joined the prime minister's yamen.

Then, Yehenala said: "Duanhua is dead, and there will be one vacant minister, do you want to add it?" ”

Su Yu said: "The minister recommended the monk Greenqin and added the minister of parliament. ”

Suddenly, Monk Greenqin was slightly stunned, and the audience was also in an uproar.

For a long time, although Seng Lingqin is in a high position, he is basically a military general.

Whether it is a cabinet minister or a minister of military aircraft, he has never done it, that is, he has become the former minister.

Empress Dowager Ci'an said: "There are Manchurians, Han Chinese, and one more Mongolian among the ministers of parliament, which is good." ”

Some people have a blank look in their hearts, the Queen Mother, but there is no need to say it so clearly.

Yehenala said: "Monk Grinqin, are you willing?" ”

Monk Lingqin kowtowed and said: "The slave has done his best, and he is dead." ”

Then, Jiao Youying, Minister of Parliament and Minister of Military Aircraft, said: "The Empress Dowager, the minister's energy is not good, and it may be difficult to concurrently serve as the Minister of Military Aircraft and the Minister of Parliament. ”

Yehenara said: "Those who can work harder." ”

Jiao Youying said: "Please allow the Queen Mother." ”

Yehenara said: "Then our sisters can't force you, so let's do it." ”

Jiao Youying said: "Thank you Empress Dowager Longen." ”

Yehenala said: "A radish and a pit, and now the Minister of Military Aircraft has vacated a position, can you recommend it?" ”

There is no definite number of ministers of military aircraft, it doesn't matter if there is one more or one less, but everyone can see that Jiao Youying's resignation is to make room for others.

Tian Yugong came out and said: "The minister recommended the Imperial Palace of the Imperial Palace. ”

The empress dowager of the two palaces glanced at each other and said, "Chongen is an elder of the clan, and he is highly respected, which is also suitable." ”

"Intended, Chong'en entered the military aircraft department on an errand."

Chong'en came out of the queue and kowtowed: "Thank you Empress Dowager Longen." ”

Everyone watched the scene in silence.

Su Yu is a party, but there are three ministers of military aircraft.

Moreover, in the future, when the Western-style yamen is established, Shen Baozhen will be the Minister of Western-related Affairs, and he will also book a Minister of Military Aircraft.

In this way, there are four ministers of military aircraft.

Then, there was a brief silence in the courtroom.

Because then, it's time for the main event.

Yehenala said: "Su Yu's battle completely quelled the Hongyang Rebellion, recovered Nanjing, and completely exterminated the twisted bandits, which is a rare achievement in a hundred years, how should it be rewarded?" ”

The audience was silent.

Yehenala said: "Mianyu, what do you say about this great sect? ”

Prince Hui Mianyu said: "According to the precedent, Fukangan has made great contributions, and Emperor Gaozong canonized him as Beizi. Su Yao's merit surpassed that of Fukangan, so it was more appropriate to canonize Dorobelle. ”

When it came to Emperor Gaozong, Mianyu still paused slightly.

Because everyone knows that Gaozong is not a good temple number.

Since Zhao Cheng became Song Gaozong, this temple name is considered to be stinky.

Emperor Jiaqing was angry for decades, and after Qianlong died, he gave a Gaozong temple number.

Everyone was still silent.

Everyone knows that there was such a day, when Su Yu was canonized as the Duke of Zhenguo, it was to help him break a certain boundary.

Now the canonization of Dorobelle is also appropriate.

And everyone expected Dorobelle.

However, Prince Yi Zaiyuan suddenly came out and said: "Empress Dowager, the slave has something to offer." ”

Yehnara said, "You say." ”

Zaiyuan said: "At that time, the first emperor once said that if anyone destroyed the Hongyang Rebellion, he would not hesitate to reward the king. ”

As soon as these words came out, the audience was in an uproar again.

Prince Yi, do you still want to be shameless?

It's not enough for you to betray Su Shun and Duanhua, you still have to kneel and lick like this?

That's right, the first emperor did say this, but he quickly retracted it.

At that time, the ministers were all opposed, because it seemed that the person who could extinguish the Hongyang Rebellion at that time was probably Zeng Guofan.

Do you want to crown the Han people as kings?

Su Yao, as a red belt, is enshrined as Dorobelle, which is already very exaggerated.

And now you still want to be crowned king?

Yehenara said, "Mianyu, what do you think?" ”

The pressure suddenly came to Mianyu's side.

After a long while, Prince Hui said, "Slave, I think it's a bit too much." ”

Yehenara asked again, "Yi, what do you think?" ”

Prince Gong said: "Su Yu has made outstanding contributions, and he should indeed be greatly rewarded, but there should be room for it." ”

Yehenara said: "Yi Xun, what do you think? ”

This, is this to make every top nobleman take a stand?

Yi Cheng and Yi Xun are both the younger brothers of Emperor Xianfeng.

Prince Yi said directly: "Back to the Queen Mother, the younger brother thinks it's too much." ”

Prince Yiyun also came out and said: "The slave also thinks that there should be room for it." ”

The entire hall was still silent.

After a long while, Yehenara said: "The credit for quelling the Hongyang Rebellion is too great, and it cannot calm people's hearts unless it is rewarded." ”

"Since the first emperor said this, then follow the first emperor's plan."

"Proposed decree, canonize Su Yu as the king of Doroyi County!"

King Yijun?

Su Yu stepped forward and saluted: "Minister, thank the Empress Dowager Longen, thank the Emperor Longen." ”

And at this time, the little emperor seemed to be unable to help and yawned.

Then, Yehenara said: "Proposed purpose, canonize Su Yu as a scholar of Wenhua Palace." ”

Su Yu saluted again: "Minister, thank you, Lord Longen." ”

…………………………

It is said that Su Yu has sealed the king of the county, and he should be in the city.

However, the guests who came to congratulate him were still only a few important members of his faction.

That night, Su Yao set up a small dinner.

His parents, wife, and children are all gone.

Therefore, this banquet is basically my own people.

As a result, a few heavyweight guests came.

Minister of Military Aircraft, Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs Wen Xiang.

Last time, Su Shun and others forced him to resign, but he finally resisted the pressure and did not resign.

In this way, he is also regarded as Su Yu's henchman.

So this dinner, he was there.

Next, there is Prince Yi Zaiyuan.

Minister of War, Rong Lu.

In the end, a big man came, but everyone didn't expect it.

Minister of Parliament, Minister of War, Prince of Korqin, Monk Grinqin.

And the remaining Prince Gong and Prince Yi sent gifts.

As for the prince of Yi, no one came, and no gifts came.

However, this banquet was finally over.

…………………………

The entire capital is still in a state of some sense.

Everyone was thinking that Su Yu should be canonized as Dorobelle, but he didn't expect to be crowned the king of the county directly.

Moreover, he was also crowned a Fellow of Mandarin Temple.

So, how many titles does he have?

Minister of Parliament, Prime Minister for Foreign Affairs, Minister of Army, Scholar of Mandarin University.

In the previous council hall, Yi was the chief parliamentary minister.

And now in this posture, Su Yu is at least on par with each other.

However, the turmoil in the entire capital is much more than that.

The next day, at the court meeting.

Everyone was waiting for Su Yu to take office again.

But it was not Su Yu who shook a thousand waves with one stone, but the Queen Mother.

Today, she said with a sad look in her eyes: "Last night, the first emperor dreamed in the palace, saying that he had quelled the Hongyang Rebellion, and he was very relieved, and he also had an explanation for the ancestors and ancestors. It is said that he should also be at ease, but I don't know why, he still can't be at peace, as long as he closes his eyes, there will be countless bloodsheds and countless wails. ”

"Why is that?"

Rong Lu came out and said: "Empress Dowager Qiyu, the first emperor is merciful, too many people have died in the Hongyang Rebellion, and after it subsides, he is still uneasy." ”

Yehenara said: "That's the case. ”

Then, she suddenly said: "Since this is the case, then the palace will go to Tantuo Temple to worship the Buddha for half a year and pay tribute to thousands of living beings." ”

As soon as these words came out, many people came out and said, "Absolutely not." ”

"State affairs are inseparable from the Queen Mother for a day."

"Invite some great monks to do the practice, that's it."

"Or, send a prince or minister to worship the Buddha on his behalf."

All the princes and ministers came forward to dissuade them.

However, the Yehenara clan said very resolutely: "The intention of this palace to worship the Buddha has been decided, you don't need to persuade again." ”

Then, she said slowly: "In the past half a year since the palace left, the affairs of the court will be handed over to you." ”

"Yi, Su Yu."

Two of them are listed.

Yehenara said: "The burden of the imperial court will be handed over to the two of you. ”

Su Yu said: "The minister obeys the order." ”

Yi Dao: "The slave obeys the order!" ”

…………………………

After the dispersal of the dynasty, Su Yu went to Changchun Palace.

Yehenala snuggled in Su Yu's arms and said, "Look at it, so many people oppose it, but this palace still gives you the title of prince, you can't have no conscience in the future." ”

Next, Yehnara said a lot.

Su Yu could hear that this was uneasy.

For the uneasiness of being far from the center of power.

For more than a year, she has been in the center of power, and because she has to give birth, she has to leave, and she suddenly loses her sense of security.

"It's all your fault, it's all your fault!"

"Every time you get outside, you have to get inside."

"Now I'm going to leave the palace and give birth to you."

"You, what are you doing? Your hands are not clean. ”

Su Yu said: "I just washed it." ”

Then, he put his finger in front of him and said, "Look at it, it's like oil." ”

Then, Su Yu said: "How about I come to wait for the Queen Mother?" ”

Yehenara wanted to refuse, but when he thought of leaving for half a year, he couldn't help but slowly open up.

Next, it seems that the battle of words is not enough.

Yehenara couldn't help but say, "You, you better come." ”

…………………………………………

The next day, under the leadership of the little emperor, the civil and military officials, the princes and ministers sent the Empress Dowager Xi to leave the palace and go to Tantuo Temple to worship the Buddha.

Everyone suddenly discovered.

In the next half a year, there will be only one queen mother who will listen to the government.

And Su He and Yi also led the political affairs hall together.

This...... It's about to enter a new era again.

But this new era is really heart-wrenching.

The last time Su Yu entered the center, the new policy he introduced was to abolish the Eight Banners Army and train the new army of the empire.

As a result, the world is in turmoil.

It almost triggered a split in the center of the imperial court.

In the end, I don't know how many people died, and the battle lasted for half a year.

This military reform has finally been carried out.

Next, what kind of fire will Su Yu burn?

A real world of attention.

……………………………………

At the morning meeting.

The Empress Dowager Ci'an was the only one who listened to the government, and she suddenly looked a little uneasy.

This is still the first thing to do.

"The minister has the book!" Su dragged out of the ranks.

Everyone was shocked, and their ears pricked up violently.

Is it finally coming?

Empress Dowager Ci'an said: "Come." ”

Su Yu said: "The Hongyang rebellion has subsided, and everything in the world is in ruins. ”

"The minister has a few measures, please ask the Queen Mother to decide."

"The first item is to continue military reform, abolish all the local more than 100,000 Eight Banner Army, and organize and train six divisions of the newly built Imperial Army."

In the past, this alone would have caused an uproar.

But now, everyone recognizes it.

This is because Su Yu relied on military struggle and at the cost of countless lives to promote this military reform.

The heads of dozens of opponents have just landed.

Next, Su Yu played in detail the composition of the military source, the source of military spending, and so on.

Sprinkled with thousands of words.

After listening to this, the Empress Dowager Ci'an said slowly: "Zhongqing, do you have any other opinions?" ”

The audience was silent.

Those who had opinions were killed.

Empress Dowager Ci'an said: "If there is no opinion, then this article is over." ”

"War Department, I'll leave this errand to you."

Monk Greenqin, Rong Lu, Zuo Zongtang and others are listed.

"The minions obey."

"Obey the order!"

Then, Su Yu said: "The second move of the minister is to set up a China Merchants Bureau. ”

Empress Dowager Ci'an said: "What is this agenda? ”

Su Yu said: "The pearl and jade of the Jiujiang Economic Experimental Zone are in front, and now that the Hongyang Rebellion has subsided, and the Twisted Bandit Rebellion has also been calmed down, the time is ripe for the comprehensive opening of the Westernization Movement, which is an established national policy. ”

Empress Dowager Ci'an nodded and said, "Yes, you go on." ”

Su Yu said: "Next, we will set up a foreign affairs yamen, which will be the most important yamen in the future." ”

"But to engage in foreign affairs, it is not possible to rely entirely on the state treasury, there is not so much money."

"It's not okay to hand over this authority to the local governor, because that would be a decentralization."

"So we have to think of a way, the power of foreign affairs is in the center of the imperial court, but it is necessary to stimulate the enthusiasm of private businessmen."

"Therefore, Chen wants to set up a China Merchants Bureau, vigorously introduce private capital, and invest in the next related industries."

Everyone understands that the Westernization Movement is going to be carried out in a big way, and there will be many big projects in the future, and the treasury does not have enough money, and they don't want foreigners to take too many shares, so they attract private businessmen to take shares.

Su Yao: This is really a helpless move.

It's all in the hands of the government, and the devil knows what it will be like to be corrupted.

His team can ensure the integrity of the Jiujiang Economic Experimental Zone.

But the next full-scale Westernization campaign may be several times the Jiujiang Economic Experimental Zone.

I don't know how many factories and how many industries there will be, and his people are far from enough.

Moreover, if we want to eradicate corruption, we must solve the problem at the root.

That is to bring in external capital and supervise each other.

Foreign capital, private capital, national capital, trinity.

Of course, there will be problems with this, and even there will be big problems in the future.

But let's talk about it first.

There have been many examples of how this is probably the safest way to start.

After a little scale, some core industries will be in hand.

For example, the future of electricity, energy, weapons and military industry, etc., must be completely controlled.

But now, at least we must first train many industries and many talents.

Otherwise, what is the future?

Empress Dowager Ci'an said: "The so-called China Merchants Bureau just wants to raise funds from the private sector, right?" ”

Su Yu said: "Yes." ”

Empress Dowager Ci'an said: "How much money do you want to raise?" ”

As soon as she asked this, the Empress Dowager Ci'an also knew that she had said the wrong thing, which should be asked privately, not publicly.

Once asked, Su Yu had to report a number.

If you can't do it, you'll lose your adult.

Su Yu said: "About fifty million taels." ”

Everyone gasped.

This...... So much?

It's a great deal.

Prince Gong couldn't help but say: "Su Xiang, may I ask whether the total investment in the Westernization Movement in the future is 50 million taels, or is it necessary to raise 50 million taels from the people?" ”

Su Yu said: "Is it to raise 50 million taels from the private sector? ”

This...... That's too much.

Next, there will be a lot of projects on the way.

There are more than a dozen large-scale projects alone.

Telegraph lines from Jiujiang to Shanghai, to Tianjin, and then to Beijing.

Two large coal mines, three large iron and copper mines.

Two large docks, two shipyards.

The steamship bureau, the railway, and several factories.

Of course, these projects will need to be completed over several years.

And this China Merchants Bureau, Su Yu wants to leave Li Hongzhang a chance and give him a place.

Moreover, the core of this fundraising should still be the Jiangsu and Zhejiang consortium, which is the territory of the Hunan army.

In addition, this is also a foreshadowing for the dismantling of the Hunan army.

Empress Dowager Ci'an said: "Well, this second item is a major event, do you have any objections to it?" ”

Everyone was silent.

It's hard to ask the people for money, but is the court still afraid of money?

Of course, there was no objection.

Su Yu continued: "The third item, the minister wants to completely ban opium. ”

As soon as these words came out, the court was once again violently turbulent.

Because, this sentence will cause fear in the depths of memory.

The last time he said that he wanted to ban opium, the foreigners came in, and the entire Qing Dynasty was trampled under his feet.

even indirectly led to the death of the first emperor.

Do you Su Yu still dare to mention the ban on opium?

Su Yu continued: "The minister plans to take two steps. ”

"The first step is to completely ban opium cultivation in the country, except for medical treatment, and a very small number of opium fields can be approved. All the remaining people, whether they are officials or people, all the opium fields, all must be destroyed. ”

"Within a year, anyone who dares to grow more than one acre of opium will be killed!"

"Within two years, all opium venues in the country will be closed."

"The second step is to completely eliminate all opium imports and all opium trade in the country within five years."

Empress Dowager Ci'an said: "Of course, it is a good thing to ban opium, but the foreigners ...... it."

Su Yu said: "On the foreigner's side, it will be handed over to the minister and the prime minister's foreign affairs yamen." ”

Empress Dowager Ci'an said: "The mourning family agrees in principle to this matter. ”

Su Yu said: "The fourth ......"

The Empress Dowager Ci'an suddenly interrupted: "Su Yu, this palace is a little uncomfortable, let's stop here today." ”

Su Yu said: "Obey! ”

Then, scatter the dynasty.

…………………………………………

After the Empress Dowager Ci'an returned to Zhongcui Palace, she immediately summoned Su Yu.

"Su Yu, it's not that this palace is obstructing you, but these three major events are completely enough."

"Ordinary people, doing a big thing, are already great capable ministers."

"You've now launched three big things at once."

"If it can be completed within a few years, you are already the number one minister of this dynasty, so the next slowdown, slowdown, okay?"

Su Yu sighed inwardly.

The little queen mother in front of her really flinched.

The fourth, the flag reform, didn't even dare to let him speak.

"Su Yu, who are you going to let in?" The Queen Mother tried hard to divert the topic of the fourth flag reform.

Su Yu said: "The minister leads this China Merchants Bureau and lets Li Hongzhang and Shen Baozhen in. ”

Empress Dowager Ci'an said: "Then in the future Westernization Yamen, there will also be Li Hongzhang and Shen Baozhen, right?" ”

Su Yu said: "That's right." ”

Empress Dowager Ci'an said: "Now that Li Hongzhang is the governor of Jiangsu, he has entered the China Merchants Bureau, who do you plan to let be the governor of Jiangsu?" ”

Su Yu said: "Anhui political envoy Ma Xinyi. ”

Empress Dowager Ci'an said slowly: "This palace is a woman, and I don't understand many things. But one thing can be known, if you want to engage in the Westernization movement next, is the focus on the southern cities, at most add Tianjin? ”

Su Yu said: "Yes." ”

Empress Dowager Ci'an said: "That's the territory of the Hunan army?" ”

Su Yu said: "There is no more clever than the Queen Mother." ”

Empress Dowager Ci'an said: "That is to say, before you want to engage in a large-scale Westernization movement, you must first solve the problem of the Hunan army." At least in the southern provinces, the imperial court wants to take it back. ”

The provinces where the Hunan army is now entrenched are, in a sense, a state of semi-separation.

The Hunan army has financial power, military power, and governing power.

Empress Dowager Ci'an said: "You, the China Merchants Bureau, actually want to pull the Hunan army into business?" ”

Su Yu said: "That's the case. ”

Empress Dowager Ci'an said: "What about Zeng Guofan? ”

Su Yu said: "I can't quite forgive him. ”

Empress Dowager Ci'an said: "If the imperial court takes out Li Hongzhang's governor of Jiangsu, will it stimulate the Hunan army?" ”

Su Yu said: "Probably will." ”

Empress Dowager Ci'an said: "If you successfully take out Li Hongzhang, will you take out Zeng Guofan next?" ”

Su Yu said: "Yes, I will let Zeng Guofan go to Zhili to be the governor." ”

Empress Dowager Ci'an said: "What about the Governor of Liangjiang? ”

Su Yu said: "Yuan Jiasan." ”

Empress Dowager Ci'an rubbed her forehead with her hand, and couldn't help but glance at Su Yu and said, "You will arrange your own people, and you will be placed in any key position." ”

It's really strange, it is said that this is already a big accusation, if it comes out of the mouth of Emperor Xianfeng, it will be terrible.

But from the mouth of the little queen mother in front of her, it seems that it is no big deal.

Empress Dowager Ci'an said: "This palace is afraid of stimulating those Hunan troops too ruthlessly, and this group of arrogant soldiers can do anything." ”

Su Yu was silent for a while and said, "If they do something, it may not be a good thing. ”

"You're going to fight again, you know how to fight every day." Empress Dowager Ci'an said: "It's not easy to be born, why do you want to fight again?" Annoying, annoying. ”

Little Queen Mother, be careful with your tone.

This is not like the tone of a king.

Then, the Empress Dowager Ci'an said: "Su Yu, is it okay for the mourning family to discuss something with you?" ”

Su Yu said: "Queen Mother, please speak." ”

Empress Dowager Ci'an said: "You also know that our knighthood for you is not in accordance with the rules, and it is too much. In fact, many princes and ministers, civil and military officials are very dissatisfied. ”

Su Yu said: "The minister knows, so that day at the dinner, there were very few people who went to the minister's mansion to celebrate." ”

"And many princes and ministers, civil and military of the Manchu Dynasty, all call me Su Xiang, not my title."

"In other words, they don't approve of this lord of the courtier."

Empress Dowager Ci'an said: "You also know this, so at this time, let's coax these princes and ministers, can the Eight Banners be successful?" ”

"So, so let's not mention this flag reform, okay?"

"You've already proposed three New Deals, and that's pretty adequate."

"Once the flag reform is proposed, I am afraid that the sky will fall apart, and the mourning family will be very scared when they think about it. As soon as this policy came out, it was certainly even more turbulent than the abolition of the Eight Banners. ”

Military reform, whoever touches who dies.

The reform of flag affairs is also the death of whoever touches it.

However, the military reform was carried out by Su Liu, and it was greatly implemented.

And this flag reform, which affects the interests and jobs of millions of people, is of course even more difficult.

Su Yu said: "Doesn't the Queen Mother support the reform of flag affairs?" ”

Empress Dowager Ci'an said: "Of course, the mourning family also knows the benefits of flag reform, but we will do a good job of these three new policies first, and then implement the flag reform." ”

Su Yu said: "The Queen Mother knows that the flag reform and the Westernization movement may complement each other. Once these three new policies were successful and the treasury was full, the opportunity for flag reform was lost forever. ”

Empress Dowager Ci'an said: "If the treasury is full, then ...... I don't care about the silver of the flag keeper. It's a big deal that when the time comes, a part of the revolution will be launched every year, so that the resistance will be much smaller. ”

Su Yu said: "This treats the symptoms but not the root cause. ”

Empress Dowager Ci'an said: "Anyway, the mourning family is afraid, afraid that the world will be turbulent again, and the mourning family wants to have a peaceful birthday." ”

Then, the Empress Dowager Ci'an walked in front of Su Yu and said, "Today, the palace said that you were not feeling well, and prevented you from saying the four words of flag reform." The mourning family is not afraid to tell you the truth, this item will not be passed by the palace, and it will be in vain for you to bring it up. ”

"Hmph, it's a big deal that you're going to hurt the palace, let your good friend listen to the government alone, and let her pass the flag reform for you."

"Anyway, here in this palace, you don't want to think about it."

Su Yu said helplessly: "Queen Mother, didn't we say it well at that time, and also said that Su Shun and Duanhua would enter the flag reform yamen." ”

Empress Dowager Ci'an said: "At that time, the palace was bent on saving these two uncles, and she didn't think about it carefully. Now that I think clearly, I feel scared and dare not carry it out, okay? ”

Then, she continued to hold her forehead and said, "This palace knows what you are thinking, and I think that I, the queen mother, are going back on my word." Anyway, I'm a woman, so it's okay to go back on my word. ”

Su Yu was speechless for a moment.

The beautiful little queen mother in front of him is brushing a scoundrel here, what can he do.

"Okay, this palace is a little uncomfortable, you can retreat." Empress Dowager Ci'an waved her hand.

Su Yu said: "The minister retired." ”

Then, Su Lu walked out.

And the Empress Dowager Ci'an walked back, and halfway through, her body suddenly shook.

"Su Yu, all of a sudden, I was very uncomfortable!"

Then, her whole delicate body couldn't support it and fell directly to the ground.

Su Yu stepped forward and hugged her in his arms.
