As soon as Manduhu finished speaking, the room fell silent. Bumuba, Orundai, and Alsona all looked at each other speechlessly. If Kangxi did not oppose the new policy, what would be the fate waiting for them? Zhenwu has expressed his position many times in front of all his brothers that he will not pursue the matter of fighting for the throne, but his position has been determined, and he will never allow any further dissent.
This master is not a kind and merciful master. Back then, General Surda and his family were forcibly exiled to Australia, and then there was no news at all. They must have been eradicated, and they did not want to follow in his footsteps. Although Zhenwu was not lenient, But he kept his word. Since he came to the throne, he has reused members of the Eighth Party, and even the third and fourth oldest people have rarely been implicated. Although they are not welcome, Zhenwu has not made a move to repair them. If we cause trouble again this time, we will definitely have to settle old and new accounts together.
After being silent for a long time, Arson Ahcai said: "Although the Emperor Yuji has only been on the throne for a year, he has confiscated the military power of the Five Banners, greatly expanded the size of the navy and the new imperial guard army, and greatly increased the military pay of the Yuying camp. It made the Yingying camp pay the same salary as the Eight Banners. It also made great efforts to win over the Eight Banners soldiers, lifted the constraints on the Eight Banners stationed in Beijing, increased the benefits of the Eight Banners stationed in Beijing, and solved the problem of the Bannermen in Beijing through measures such as increasing the number of troops and workshops for Bannermen to join the army. His livelihood can be said to have won the hearts of the military.
Even if the Supreme Emperor is dissatisfied with what the Emperor has done, it is still unclear who will win. Besides, the Eighth Master is unwilling to come forward. In my opinion, it is better to wait and see. "
Seeing that Arson'a and Mandu Hudu were retreating, Orundai glanced at them and said coldly: "Wait and see? Now all the officials and gentry are waiting and watching, as well as all the civil and military officials in the court. While waiting and watching, the royal family, princes, nobles and nobles are also waiting and watching. If everyone is waiting and watching, and no one raises their arms and shouts, wouldn't it be fulfilling the emperor's wishes?
Three years and five years later, when the new navy guard army completely replaced the Eight Banners and Yuying camp, and when a large number of new nobles who were only loyal to the emperor rose up in the court, even if the emperor continued to intensify his efforts to embezzle and exploit the interests of princes, nobles, officials and gentry, there would still be Who dares to fight and fight? "
Manduhu said disapprovingly: "I agree to wait and see. The New Deal is the first major political issue after the emperor ascends the throne and changes the Yuan Dynasty. What is the price of the neighing horses? There is another point that you have thought about? The feudal states in America cannot be separated from the emperor. Support is inseparable from the support of the navy. Even if we dare to go all out and the horses neigh, no one among the nobles and nobles may dare to agree.
The Eighth, Ninth, Tenth, Thirteenth and Fifteenth Lords are about to entrust Africa. How many princes and nobles are involved in this? The Eighth Master had already let out the news that the Emperor intended to enfeoff the Third, Fifth, Seventh, and Twelfth Masters in South America. Compared with the overseas enfeoffment, the money lost by officials and gentry paying for the food together was not worth mentioning. Who could Are you willing to go to death to offend the emperor? "
Hearing these words, Bu Musi couldn't help but be startled. There were dozens of princes and nobles who were enfeoffed in the Americas. Although the people who were entrusted with Africa in September were mainly Ba Ye and others, there were also many princes and nobles who were attached to overseas feudal countries. , everyone has invested a lot of manpower, material and financial resources, and offending Zhenwu will definitely lose everything.
No wonder Zhenwu dared to offend all the officials and gentry in the world and the princes, nobles, civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty, and couldn't wait to try out the New Deal. What he relied on was not the royal family, not the Eight Banners nobles, but the navy. The navy was Zhenwu's greatest strength. With the capital, no one in the Qing Dynasty could control the navy, not even Kangxi, unless Zhenwu died!
After being silent for a long time, Bu Musi slowly said: "That's right. Even if the royal family members and nobles of the Eight Banners are dissatisfied, no one is willing or dares to offend the emperor. However, for the sake of overseas seals, The country, all the royal family members, and the Eight Banners nobles have all exhausted their family assets, and some are even heavily in debt. Absolutely no one will strongly support the New Deal."
"Not necessarily." Arsona took it immediately, "The New Deal is only being implemented on a trial basis in Shanxi. It will be three to five years before it is fully promoted. By then, overseas countries will probably have begun to make profits. Besides, even if They were heavily in debt, and they owed money to the 'Four Great Constants', so they didn't panic at all.
"The reason why there are so many royal family members now, and the nobles of the Eight Banners are panic-stricken, is just a temporary panic. The emperor does not even need to reprimand, as long as he analyzes it a little, he will understand which one is more serious. "
"The royal family members and the Eight Banners nobles do not oppose the New Deal. Who among the civil and military officials of the DPRK and China dare to say anything?" Mandu Hu said solemnly: "Although the New Deal has many flaws, it is beneficial to the imperial court and the common people. There are only two of them. , the emperor dares to attack opponents unscrupulously."
Elundai felt upset after hearing this, and said in a low voice: "If that's the case, why do you encourage the Eighth Master to come forward?"
"You can't eat Zunlifu in a hurry."
Manduhu glanced at him and said calmly: "I am encouraging the Eighth Master to test whether the Eighth Master still has ambitions. The New Deal has offended officials and gentry all over the world. Once fully implemented, there will definitely be complaints. The Eighth Master If you are serious, this is the timeThis is an excellent opportunity. It can be arranged calmly. If Master Ba is unintentional, then there is nothing to say. You can live in peace of mind.
It¡¯s just a son-in-law. ""
I think we can still feel at ease
I son. "Arson'a said with some frustration: "The Eighth Master is very affectionate and will never conspire to usurp the throne. The Ninth Master and the Tenth Master are now like a fish in water, and they will never give their full support to the Eighth Master. "
"I don't think so." Bumuba said in a deep voice: "Being a king and a minister is the difference between clouds and mud. No matter how high the position is, he is still a minister. A single will can deprive them all. How can ambitious ambitions be easily eliminated? Lost? The eighth uncle is just trying his best to hide it. The ninth uncle, the tenth uncle and the eighth uncle are all prosperous and destructive. If the eighth uncle really takes action, they will give their full support even if they are not willing."
Elundai was perked up after hearing this, and said: "In this case, the opportunity now is not to be missed. We can make secret arrangements first, and then convince the Eighth Master when the time is right."
Bumuba nodded and said: "In this case, we must strongly support the emperor in implementing the new policy."
Since there was no need to go to court early, Zhenwu had a rare sleep until
After sitting for three days, Shi Shiran got up. After breakfast, he went to the front hall of Dan Ning Ju to review the memorial. He was not interested in the debate between the Beijing News and the Ning News. Even if the Ning News was defeated, he would not care about it. Even though it was defeated, it was still glorious. After this battle, Ning Bao could be said to have become famous in one battle. The Qing Dynasty did not blame others with words, could not restrain its thoughts, and respected historical facts. This will also lead to the development of a culture of respecting historical facts.
Of course, the role of Ning Bao goes far beyond that. As the pioneer of Min Bao, this is the first step for Ning Bao. Zhenwu not only wants to use Ning Bao to promote Western learning and supervise the local area, but also let Ning Bao lead the Qing Dynasty. His thoughts are flowing, and since the big debate has begun, he must stick to it. As for the topics of the debate, there are too many, and he doesn't have to worry at all.
Because Zhenwu had a purpose and did not go to court early, all the ministers came to see him early. Everyone knew that Zhenwu's inspection tour to Shanxi and Shaanxi was in a hurry.
iRun around and take a rest
i is of course understandable.
Zhenwu reviewed the memorial until noon, when Bao Fuquan came in and reported: "Your Majesty, Prince Lian Yinsu, Nian Gengyao, and Zheng Shichang are sending signs outside to ask for an audience."
Zhenwu nodded. The three people who came together must have been invited. He casually ordered: "Let them come in."
When Yinhu, Nian Gengyao and Zheng Shichang entered the palace, they kowtowed in greeting. Zhenwu put down his pen, glanced at the three of them, and said with a smile: "No courtesy, please give me a seat."
As soon as the three of them thanked each other and sat down, Zhenwu asked with a smile: "Zheng Shichang, is it difficult for the 'Four Great Constants' to open the semicolon to the Japanese country?"
Zheng Shichang yesterday
I discussed this matter with Yinhu and found out that Japan¡¯s war compensation still amounted to 3 million taels of gold. In terms of silver, it was 36 million taels of silver. It was more than enough to open semicolons all over Japan. For the 'Four Great Constants', this is a rare opportunity to try. The Qing Dynasty had many vassal states and prosperous commerce. Sooner or later, the semicolon of the 'Four Great Constants' will have to take this step.
He hurriedly bowed and said: "Back to the emperor, there is nothing difficult about opening a branch in the Japanese country. It's just that the language is not clear. We must hire Japanese people to work for the 'Four Constants'."
Zhenwu smiled slightly and said: "It doesn't matter. The Japanese country has always respected the cultural customs of our celestial dynasty, and there are many people who are proficient in Chinese. You can hire them. However, hiring
Members must be registered in the Japanese shogunate. "As he said that, he looked at Yinhu and said, "Does Arai-kunmei have any objections to this? "
"Go back to the emperor." Yinhu bowed slightly and said: "Arai Kimi agrees. However, he hopes that the shogunate can participate in the stock, at least 50%, and he also requests that gold, silver and copper not be transferred out of the country within three years."
Zhenwu couldn't help but smile when he heard this. This ugly guy didn't agree. He was clearly refusing. How could the shogunate scoop out three million gold to buy shares? It would be even more of a joke if gold, silver and copper were not transferred out of the country within three years. He couldn't help but glance at Zheng Shichang and said, "Zheng Shichang, what do you think of this?"
Zheng Shichang hurriedly bowed and said: "Back to the emperor, the products of the Japanese country are not rich. Except for gold, silver and copper, there are no goods that can be traded in large quantities. Furthermore, the Japanese country has banned the sea. The trade between the Qing Dynasty and the Japanese country is all done by the Qing Dynasty maritime merchants. 'The four major Since Heng's semicolon was opened to the Japanese country, the merchants of the Qing Dynasty must pay with banknotes. In this way, if the "Four Great Constants" pay the trade price difference for the Japanese country, this will greatly occupy the "Four Great Constants". This silver."
Sadtake nodded slightly and said: "Arai Kimimi is not an ignorant person. Since he dares to put forward such harsh conditions, he will surely be rewarded, right?"
"The Emperor has a clear warning." Yinhu bowed and said: "Arai Kimi is willing to provide 100,000 young and strong laborers to America and Australia to help open up wasteland for five years."
Zhenwu couldn¡¯t help but be stunned after hearing this, labor export? This new wellKimi is really not simple. After thinking about it for a while, he vaguely guessed that Arai Kimi might want to take this opportunity to weaken the power of a group of powerful feudal lords. However, no matter how he calculated this account, it seemed that he was at a disadvantage. After thinking for a moment, he Cai said: "What do you think about this?"
