Aixinjueluo? Yi replied: "It's a slave, and it's also the opinion of Master Zeng and Master Li."

After Ji Yanzhi said ‘oh’, he continued to talk to Aixinjueluo? Yi argued over whether to endure a moment of humiliation and work hard to rise up, or to start the Sino-Russian war because of that unbearable humiliation. After several arguments, no one persuaded anyone, so Ji Yanzhi simply said:

"I am writing that Zeng Guofan and Li Hongzhang will enter the capital to discuss the requirements of the Russian side."

Aixinjueluo? Yi was very helpless, and wanted to repeat Russia to make it impatient to wait, but seeing Ji Yanzhi had already begun to review the memorials, it was obvious that he didn't want to say any more, let Aixinjueluo? Yi could only swallow the words back into his stomach, and Gui'an left the Hall of Nourishing Heart.

Aixinjueluo? Soon after Yi left, Qin Xian, who had received Ji Yanzhi's order to conduct surveys in Shanxi and Anhui for a period of time, happened to return to the capital, and returned to the palace without much washing up.

Ji Yanzhi took the information submitted by Qin Xian and read it briefly and found that the distribution of mineral resources in Shanxi, Anhui and other places recorded by Qin Xian in the materials was almost exactly the same as what Qin Xian told him before he came out of Beijing. It can be seen that Ji The memory of words can stand the test, and Qin Xian is really meticulous in handling affairs.

Ji Yanzhi was very satisfied with the information: "Arrange manpower to start mining. As for the management, I trust Qinxian, if not, Qinxian will arrange manual mining. By the way, remember that iron ore mining and training is the most important thing. Heavy."

Qin Xian: "The minion understands that, please don't worry, Master Long live, what the Master Long live confessed, the slave will definitely become proper."

Ji Yanzhi smiled, and it would trigger himself and Aixinjueluo? Yi's dispute was told to Qinxian. Qinxian hesitated for a moment, and said, "Long live the Lord, rest assured, even if Russia comes to make it not greedy for power, money, or greedy women, the minion will have to delay the time for the two countries to negotiate land reparation and compensation until half a year later."

Ji Yanzhi nodded, "Qin Xian is doing things, I can rest assured."

Ji Yanzhi asked Qin Xian to study ink for him, and then wrote the imperial decree summoning Zeng Guofan, Li Hongzhang, etc. with a brush, and threw it to Xiao Wanggong, and asked him to arrange for Xiaohuangmen to send the imperial decree to Zeng Guofan, Li Hongzhang and other representatives of the Westernization Movement as soon as possible. Hands.

Later, when Qin Xian led the order to dig a hole for the Russian envoy, Ji Yanzhi summoned Zuo Zongtang, the minister of war and the minister of military aircraft, to discuss the Muslim riots in Shaanxi, Ningxia and other places.

"I received a secret report from the inspection guard, saying that the Muslims in Shaanxi, Ningxia and other places were supporting Changmaozi (Taiping Army) as early as the first year of Tongzhi when they committed rebellion. Rebellions occurred in Shaanxi, Ningxia and other places. It has been three years since Tongzhi, and the governor of Shaanxi and Gansu, Yang Yuebin, cannot control the situation well. I wanted to let Zuo Aiqing go to Shaanxi and Gansu. Why did Zuo Aiqing go to Shaanxi and Gansu?"

There are two kinds of views on the four great officials of the late Qing Dynasty. One is that the four great officials of the late Qing Dynasty are Zeng Guofan, Zuo Zongtang, Li Hongzhang, and Zhang Zhidong; the other is that the four great officials of the late Qing Dynasty are Zeng Guofan and Zuo Zong. Tang, Hu Linyi, Peng Yulin. In any case, Zuo Zongtang and Zeng Guofan are both ‘famous on the list’.

Ji Yanzhi agrees with the abilities of both, and dares to delegate power to them.

It's just that a series of official kilns and mines are hard to describe, and Ji Yanzhi is unwilling to improve the treasury deficit by increasing taxes.

Because of the corruption of'three years to clear the prefect, one hundred thousand snowflakes and silver', Ji Yanzhi really can’t guarantee how local officials will lavishly scrape the land when the central court reveals tax increases. .

So bite the bullet and work hard to expand the private treasury, and then use the money from the private treasury to pay for the army's expenses.

Ji Yanzhi’s questioning of Zuo Zongtang’s opinion was also a vague reminder that he was very dissatisfied with the local army in Shaanxi, Gansu and other places that paid nothing but did not do personnel affairs. If Zuo Zongtang took office, he could completely rectify the stationing in Shaanxi, Gansu and other places. Local army.

Zuo Zongtang thought about it for a while, and then he couldn't talk about it. "Long live master wants to rectify the local army in Shaanxi and Gansu to what extent."

Ji Yanzhi: "Naturally, it is brave and good at fighting, and will not flee in fear of fighting against the firearms teams of Western countries and other countries."

Zuo Zongtang: "The minister understands. The minister immediately rushed to Shaanxi and Gansu to take over the post of governor. However, the minister is a bit strict in training troops, and the Eight Banners and Green Camp soldiers are treated equally, and the minister is afraid that it will happen..."

"Zuo Aiqing's words are extremely true."

Ji Yanzhi was deeply touched by Zuo Zongtang's claim that the Baqizi brother sued for his own benefit, but he did not agree at all. And he would also prevent him from going to the Queen Mother of the Two Houses to sue the criminal case, trying to use the hands of the Queen Mother of the Two Houses to force him to change his mind.

It can be said that Ji Yanzhi has a small book that specifically records the names of all kinds of accusers. As long as you dare to sue the black accusation and try to force yourself to change your mind through the hands of the queen dowagers of the two palaces, you will be recorded in the small book. They are the ones who bear the brunt of the "suffer" if they take care of people.

But now, Ji Yanzhi's first thing is to comfort Zuo Zongtang, let him know that his young emperor has no suspicion, and let him do things with peace of mind.

And out of unconfidence in the age of Ji Yanzhi, the young emperor, Zuo Zongtang has more concerns about his rushing to Shaanxi and Gansu to take over as the governor, responsible for the extermination of the rebels and the West Nian Army. Let Zuo Zongtang take care of the task with peace of mind, especially the royal gift of Shangfang sword that can be cut first and then played. Zuo Zongtang also rushed to Shaanxi and Gansu to take over the post of governor.

However, no matter how sad, Zuo Zongtang did not do anything sloppy. Just as he told Ji Yanzhi when he was in Beijing, he used the same method to train soldiers. You know that after so many years, the Eight Banners soldiers in the Qing dynasty called the "Eight Banners are dissatisfied and invincible" long ago. They are very good at fighting cock-fighting, walking birds, smoking big cigarettes and eating empty money, but they participate in training, huh, It only took a few days to complain.

Some relatives who were officials in Beijing even handed out signs to their relatives, asking them to find a way to get rid of Zuo Zongtang, a loyal representative of the Westernization faction, and the new governor of Shanxi and Gansu who adopted a new style of military training.

This kind of accusation form was collected by Ji Yan, and in the early days of the previous dynasty, these accusation forms were directly thrown on the face of the Shangshu person, and he said with great contempt: "The family is out. I don’t know if the waste is hidden and tucked, but it still appears, but I’m really not afraid of being embarrassed."

Shang Shu told Zuo Zongtang that the training was too harsh, and even planned to ignore the young emperor of Ji Yanzhi, so he went to the Queen Mothers of the Two Palaces and cried and told the Queen Mothers of the Two Palaces that they would fall back to the government. stupid.

Ji Yanzhi didn't give the man a chance to go to court, and he sneered directly: "Why? I am wrong? Or do you think that my inspector is like your family's waste and will only eat and wait to die? Can't investigate them? What a crime to sit down under the banner of the Eight Flags Brother."

"Er wait for me to hear clearly, taking advantage of my worry about Russia to recruit the rabbit, the things that caused him to die in the peachy storm have no time to pay attention to other things, you wait for each to clamp their tails, otherwise...I will inevitably learn to learn The ancestor Yong Zheng, who couldn't rub the sand, became the emperor of his family. In this way, I don't have to worry about the treasury's frequent deficits."

All the ministers who were still standing firm all at once weakened their knees, and knelt down again.

Why did they forget that they disliked that the young emperor had an inspection guard modeled on the Jinyiwei of the former Ming Dynasty, and the method was even more unpredictable than the Jinyiwei of the Ming Dynasty. It can be said that as long as the little emperor thinks about it, even what they ate for three meals a day, whether they slept with the regular wife or the concubine in the courtyard, and what color trousers they wear can be found out clearly.

The Manchus were timid, even the Hanchus closed their mouths, bowed their heads and did not dare to look directly at the awe-inspiring little emperor.

Looking at these civil and military officials, who were as quiet as a quail, under his 1.8 meters aura, Ji Yanzhi subconsciously curled his lips and showed a gloomy smile.

"Very well, it seems that you can still listen to what I said."

"Long live the Lord can say yes!"

Ji Yanzhi’s lips wrinkled with a deeper smile: “Since I can hear it, I’ll quickly roll back and stop the family tradition. If I focus on anything and nothing, don’t blame me for being ruthless. Let Er wait for the whole family to dig coal neatly to give Daqingchuang income."

Manchu civil and military:...

They are really horrible now that the idiom ‘tidy and tidy’ is now, and they are asked to dig coal neatly around the house at every turn. It’s simply too...

"Well, since you have all acquiesced, then just go and arrange according to what I said."

Ji Yanzhi waved his hand in a posture that he didn't want to listen to you anymore, and left the Golden Temple first Shi Shiran.

Ji Yanzhi didn't have the idea of ​​going to the imperial garden, he went straight back to the Hall of Yangxin, where there was already a whole case table, memorials from all over the country.

The memorials have been sorted and collected by the little princes in advance. They are all flattering and glorious articles on the side. The relatively small number of memorials left are just nonsense, and important events are summarized in one sentence. It's a memorial.

Oh, with the exception of the Governor of Liangjiang and the Saints of the Palace, who had made drastic reforms after returning home, Zeng Guofan, Li Hongzhang, and others. It's all written to a level that ordinary ten-year-olds can understand.

Ji Yanzhi of "moved badly": …I thank you all loyal ministers and good generals!

Ji Yanzhi began to categorize the memorandum of criticism, and the speed was good, and he quickly read the memorial that belonged to normal people. It’s the turn of the whole story that is full of gorgeous rhetoric, from beginning to end, it’s flattering and sloppy. The content that needs to be explained is simple enough to use a sentence to'summarize' the memorial. Ji Yanzhi opened it up and looked at it directly and asked it to be inspected. Wei arranged for the staff to check it carefully.

Because in Ji Yanzhi's view, only the corrupt officials who yearn for "three years of clearing the prefecture, one hundred thousand snowflakes and silver" will be so stupid to write some empty and boring stories on the memorial, but they do not mention business affairs or rarely mention them. Anyway, follow the memorial to the extent of the ‘speaking indiscriminately’ to check the local officials to ensure that they are accurate.

"The propaganda department and the ritual department, two ministers enter the palace." Ji Yanzhi discarded the memorial and went to the grand master's chair built according to his body shape. With half-closed eyes, he rushed to the waiting little grandfather. Ordered.

The little prince replied and made arrangements quickly, instructing the little **** in his hand to go out of the palace, and please return to their respective yamen for work long ago, two Shangshu and the left and right servants.

After the little prince gave the instructions, and the little yellow door he had confessed hurriedly went, he hurried into the Hall of Nourishing the Heart. At exactly this time, An Dehai, the chief **** of Xiefangdian (Ciqing Palace) who was in charge of serving the Empress Dowager Cixi, came to deliver chicken soup. Ji Yanzhi asked the little prince to follow him, and said that he still had a lot of memorials that he hadn’t reviewed, and waited for the review to be over. After eating again, An Dehai was sent away.

As soon as Andehai left, Ji Yanzhi personally poured the chicken soup that exuded the strong medicinal fragrance into the potted plants placed in the corner.

"I am the emperor, I really don't know what to say." Ji Yanzhi said in a cool tone: "I always fool me as a fool."

The little prince's eyelids twitched, and he didn't dare to say anything.

Ji Yanzhi also didn't expect Xiao Wang, who is always cautious in everything, to open his mouth. He is purely talking to himself to express his admiration for his vertigo, his biological mother. How did the Empress Dowager Cixi think of giving him the medicine for constipation in the chicken soup for life? If he drank it but didn't run the thatch very diligently, I wonder if the Empress Dowager Cixi would first suspect that she did not drink that bowl of chicken soup, or she had matched it. Fake medicine.

Ji Yanzhi shook his head, subconsciously thinking that the second reason accounted for more than half. It is very likely that the Empress Dowager Cixi wanted to give him another medicine, but it turned out to be a medicine for ‘treatment of constipation’.

Hey, if this is the case, then it seems that the empress dowager Cixi's control over her is getting weaker and weaker. Speaking of it, the main reason why the empress dowager Cixi became a defeated country in history was that the situation happened just right.

In addition, half of her smartness and ability are touted. After all, the experience points gained from many years of palace career and years of listening to politics can turn a Xiaobai into a political expert, let alone a woman like Cixi who is cruel enough. .

But if you kill him, you can go back to the government? Didn't you think that Aisinjue Luo Yi, nicknamed ‘Devil Six’, would take the opportunity to clear the king’s side and take the lead on his own. After all, as Xianfeng's brother and Daoguang's son, Aixinjue Luoyi was even more qualified to inherit the throne than a adoptive heir.

"Stupid, stupid out of reach."

Ji Yanzhi smiled coolly again, and ordered to keep an eye on Xiefang Temple (Ciqing Palace), and put his attention entirely on the small meeting that followed.

This meeting mainly discussed the issue of the streamlining of officials in the Qing Dynasty. As far as Ji Yanzhi’s domineering and domineering remarks at a young age are concerned, it is a waste of those guys who have a basic corpse meal occupying official positions. Simply "give up" all the family property, disarmed and returned to the field.

I was summoned to come to participate in the small assembly of the two books of the Ministry of Rites, the Ministry of Officials, and the servants on the left and right:...

Disarming and returning to the field may sound acceptable, but all of the family properties are sacrificed...

The six adults who came here all wanted to cover their faces.

Long live master, you are still young. Don’t learn the practice of Master Yongzheng who always ransacks the house to fill the treasury. Then you will be told that you have been too eager to kill since you were young and grow up even more!

Ji Yanzhi never feels that he is too focused on killing. He has always been comfortable with the situation, which means he can do whatever he stands in.

However, there are special circumstances. For example, even if he came to the parallel plane world in the late Qing Dynasty, he was not Emperor Tongzhi but an ordinary beggar who even made a living by begging. He would do something that could change the entire world.

For example, directly overcoming the Qing dynasty and gradually becoming a truly democratic and prosperous China without foreign enemy invasion.

And since he became Emperor Tongzhi, he could only choose the responsibility of standing up amidst decay, which was actually more difficult than toppling and rebuilding, but who would let his surname Aixinjueluo in this world, he had to admit his fate.

So Ji Yanzhi, who repeatedly emphasized that he had to accept his fate, put his'idea on' cleaning the moths. The reason why I met the Shangshu of the Ministry of Etiquette and the Department of Officials, as well as the servants of the left and right, is mainly because the Ministry of Etiquette is responsible for the Enke examination every three years, while the Department of Officials is in charge of the selection, examination, appointment and dismissal, elevation, and transfer of civil officials across the country. Feng Xun.

Ji Yanzhi wants to eliminate some worms and always vacates some more important positions. At this time, it is natural to cooperate with the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Officials.

As for the issue of elevation, in Ji Yanzhi’s view, the local officials who were in charge of the "Three Years of Qing Dynasty, One Hundred Thousand Snow Silvers" did not have the need to remove the tops of the flowers and disarm and return to the fields. They must treat the Han and Han people equally, and all family members should be treated equally. Dig for him neatly.

"Long live this... so many officials are laid off at once, how to arrange them is a big problem!"

Ji Yanzhi was posing in the posture of the Grand Master's chair, and then with a look that was difficult to describe, he looked at the talking ritual servant leading the army walking Baojun.

"How can my Lord Baoyun think that the resettlement of officials who have committed a principled error is a big problem? Could it be that I have forgotten that I especially like to send the whole family of offending officials neatly to dig coal and burn kilns?"

Bao Yun: "..."

I didn't forget, it was just that I was anxious and didn't expect this.

Bao Yun wiped the cold sweat that suddenly appeared on his head, shouted Long Live Master wisely and stepped aside.

As a member of Aixinjueluo, through his own efforts to recruit people in the examination, he now stands out for Cuncheng of Zuo Shi Lang of the Ministry of Rites: "Long live, the appointment and removal of officials is the job of the staff. The minions and others are still... The Russian ambassador to Qing Dynasty."

"The officials of the Ministry of Etiquette are so diligent that the Russian ambassador named Hasky was so warm and lustful that even things like the good south wind made a big fuss. I asked, the Russian side did not issue an official letter to question that publicly. The cause of Hasky's death, right?"

Cuncheng: "No. I guess it's still on the way."

"Well, it is expected that Russia will not let go of the opportunity to ask the Qing Dynasty for benefits."

Ji Yanzhi licked his lips and smiled mockingly, and then said: "I will remember that the responsibility for this matter lies not with the Qing Dynasty, but with the individual Russian ambassador. The skin is tighter, and the bones are harder. The scalp is numb and the hair is soft."

The ritual ministers and the servants on the left and right who are so ironic that they want to kneel when they see a foreigner: "..."

Ji Yanzhi: "Don't say that I speak badly. I am young, and I still can't learn how you literati talked to others, talk to others, and talk to ghosts. If the Russian side sent an official letter to ask why the Russian Dafang in the Qing Dynasty suffered accidents. , Your officials of the Ministry of Rites must remember not to acquiesce in all the blames of the Russian side in order to show your "polite", and honestly announce the cause of death of the Russian side. I believe that in accordance with the friendship between the Qing Dynasty and the United Kingdom, France and other countries, The Russian side will definitely not be allowed to blame the Qing Dynasty."

When Ji Yanzhi mentioned ‘the friendship between the Qing Dynasty and Britain, France and other countries’, he smiled with a particularly ironic smile. The official Shang Shu Miansen secretly glanced at it, and his heart trembled subconsciously. It has nothing to do with age, but...

Mian Sen even felt that he saw an unfathomable cold pool. If he didn't do what he said, it wouldn't be long before it was obvious that he would be unlucky if he wanted to bully the little emperor and the younger ones.

Not to mention other things, at the very least, we should end up close to the family and contribute to the development of free life-long labor for the industry under the name of the little emperor.

Ji Yanzhi smiled, and suddenly raised the volume: "You know what I said, right?"

The six officials present squatted together: "If you go back to the Lord Long live, the minions will know everything."

"Since it's clear, let's kneel down." Ji Yanzhi stood up from the chair of the teacher: "I am still a child. I need plenty of time to eat and sleep well in order to grow fast."

Ji Yan's words are all for this purpose. What reason do the two Shangshu books of the Ministry of Ritual and the Ministry of Ritual and the left and right servants have to stay in the Hall of Yangxin and not leave? He immediately knelt and left the Hall of Yangxin with a cold sweat and left the Forbidden City.

Of course, according to the urination of the officials of the Qing Dynasty, it is inevitable that Ji Yan’s young age, but more and more majestic, can't really become the ZTE Daqing like Shengzu Kangxi. Lord.

The flattering slapped, naturally, some disharmonious words were inevitably mixed in between.

Ji Yanzhi didn't know this, even if he knew it, he would be too lazy to pay attention to it. What kind of stuff the saint ancestor Kangxi is in their mouth, as a tyrant who has lived in the world of parallel planes many times, do you not know? It can be said that the Kangxi guy was fine in the early stage, but he was miserable in the later stage of his fourth son, Yongzheng.

It was a complete mess. Emperor Yongzheng was basically open all year round, leaving his son Qianlong with a legacy of tens of millions of silver taels before his death.

The result...Fucking blind, choosing the heir is too prodigal, spending time in the Forbidden City is not counted, and still scooping the treasury for two days, the waves of the north and the south, it can be said that he is alone, leaving a lot of money in the north and south of China. "Moving legend", according to the incredibly fragrant wild history records, Xia Yuhe on the shore of Daming Lake is actually not a special case.

Thinking about the ‘great achievements’ of the emperors in the Qing Dynasty, Ji Yanzhi suffered a pain in his brain.
