Prince Xuan said that Zeng Guofan did not feel relieved, but was under great pressure. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

The sentence "This group of people occasionally commit adultery and criminals, and the court can't bear to put it in the penal code" is actually a serious warning, which means that if it is "occasional", the court may "not bear it", but the various lawlessness of the Hunan army's stragglers is not one or two, it is a large-scale crime, and it is a repeat offender and habitual offender, so it should have been "put on the penalty", even if it is "unloading the mill and killing the donkey, crossing the river and demolishing the bridge" - that is, forcibly repatriation, it must be regarded as "light indulgence", not to mention that I don't have to do this? So, you don't rush to open your mouth against it.

Also, the "group" of the "traitor department" has one of your godson's number one cronies.

Thinking about this layer clearly, Zeng Guofan knew what kind of posture he should put on.

"Actually," he frowned, "even if a traitor is forcibly repatriated, it cannot be said that the imperial court 'unloads the mill and kills the donkey, crosses the river and demolishes the bridge' - merit is merit, and it is fault!" Merit, the court has already been paid mediocre -- even so, the court cannot ignore it! In fact, what some stragglers should be punished forcibly, is not limited to 'forcible repatriation'? ”

After a slight pause, without waiting for Guan Zhuofan to answer, he let out a long sigh, "Alas! The military discipline of all departments of the Hunan Army is really uneven! For example, Xueqin ruled the army, and Benqiu did not commit any offenses in the place, so I can't do it! Yuan Fu can't do it! After Jiangning's recovery, if it was Xueqin who supervised Jiang, where would there be today's great troubles? Ashamed! Shame on you! ”

Xueqin is Peng Yulin's character, and Yuanfu is Zeng Guoquan's character.

Zeng Guofan pulled out Peng Yulin, but it was a little unexpected for Guan Zhuofan.

Peng Yulin attacked Zeng Guoquan first, impeached Huang Yisheng later, and handed over the power of the Yangtze River Sailor who Zeng Guofan thought was the Great Wall of Hunan to the imperial court.

Guan Zhuofan turned his mind and said in a deep voice: "Hong Yang is chaotic, Peng Xueqin's intention is very strong; In addition, his temperament, according to his own words, was longer than the military and shorter than the civil ...... That's it, the key is that the situation in the two rivers at that time, in addition to Di Weng, where is there a second person in the world to clean up? ”

Speaking of which, Zeng Guofan's intentions are already clear.

Guan Zhuofan secretly sneered in his heart, remained silent, and continued: "Let me tell you the truth, if it was Peng Xueqin who was in charge of Jiang at that time-Di Weng was naturally ordered to enter Beijing and enter the center of duty-now, we may not have to sit here and worry about the security of Jiangning; However, the aftermath and recovery of Jiangning may be much more difficult -- it may not be possible to have such a prosperous situation as it is today! ”

This passage, on the surface, seems to emphasize that Zeng Guofan's role in Jiangning is irreplaceable, but in fact, it still detains the fact that "troubled by Jiangning's public security"; And following Zeng Guofan's words, he euphemistically pointed out that his role in the management of the army and public order is not irreplaceable by no one -- please think about it, which of the Yangtze River sailors was rectified?

In addition, the seemingly casual sentence "Di Weng is naturally ordered to enter Beijing and enter the value center" also made Zeng Guofan quite embarrassed - as if he raised Peng and suppressed himself because he complained about failing to enter the value center?

"Xueqin is just a stubborn personality and can't tolerate complicated things," Zeng Guofan said slowly, "He is full of talent, if he is really willing to take the position of supervising Jiang, there is no reason to do badly." ”

"I'm not talking about people behind my back," Guan Zhuofan said with a smile, "However, since I occupy the four words 'impatient with complicated things', it is not very easy for this local official to do - I am a 'impatient with heavy and judgy', first I was the governor of Shanghai for a few days, and then I was the governor of Jiangsu for a few days, and as a result, I made a big joke in office, haha!" ”

Zeng Guofan was embarrassed again.

He said that Peng Yulin was "impatient with prosperity", which was just a neutral objective evaluation, and did not have any intention of ridiculing him, but when he said this to Guan Zhuofan, it seemed that he meant that he was in charge of civil affairs, and Peng was indeed not as good as before, but since Guan Zhuofan took the "impatient and complicated" on his own body, Zeng Guofan had no way to defend himself, so he had to say: "The prince is too humble." ”

"It's really not modest," Guan Zhuofan shook his head slightly, "When I was the magistrate of Shanghai, I was ordered to execute the prisoner, and the documents for 'approving red' arrived, and all kinds of preparations were done, and the prisoner was also brought to the court to verify the correct body, but when it came, I was sent to drag the pen on the prisoner's criminal mark, but I couldn't get this hand!" As a result, a total of seven or eight criminals who should have been beheaded were pressed back and forth, which is also a joke! ”

After a pause, "hehe" smiled, "If it weren't for Liu Songyan's persuasion, I don't know how long it would have been delayed!" ”

Liu Songyan is Liu Xunyan, the current governor of Zhejiang, at that time, he was only a staff member of Guanzhi County.

Prince Xuan "dragged red" back then, Zeng Guofan also heard about it, but the matter has changed, and in the officialdom, no one thinks that Prince Xuan is "impatient", this anecdote has long become a clear proof of Prince Xuan's "benevolence".

So, Zeng Guofan couldn't help but say: "This is the prince's kindness, how can he say 'impatient and complicated'?" ”

"Ahh Guan Zhuofan waved his hand, "It's still Liu Songyan who said, 'Little Ci is the enemy of Great Mercy'!" ”

Zeng Guofan's heart moved, and he said: "Yes, 'small mercy is the enemy of great mercy' - Song Yan's statement is correct. ”

"Also," Guan Zhuofan said, "when I was the governor of Jiangsu, a few days after I took office, I almost turned white into black, and took Qi Mingtang as a corrupt official!" Qi County ordered the Hou Ya to plant vegetables, and the lady spun cloth for clothes, which is really as clear as water, who doesn't know Taicang people? If I wasn't impetuous, how could I be so confused that I couldn't distinguish between right and wrong and reverse black and white? This matter, the four-character test phrase of 'impatient and cumbersome', probably can't run away. ”

Qi Mingtang, that is, Qi Bingrong, the current servant of the Criminal Department, at that time, was just a candidate for the sixth grade who was poorly fed.

Prince Xuan and Qi Mingtang's encounter is much more famous than his "dragging red", mentioning this matter, no one does not praise Prince Xuan's broad-minded and broken corporal, where will he talk about "impetuous" and "impatient"?

However, what Zeng Guofan paid attention to was not what was "impetuous" and "impatient", but "not distinguishing between right and wrong, reversing black and white".

The front says "small mercy is the enemy of great mercy", and the back says "do not distinguish between right and wrong, and reverse black and white", is there any special meaning in this?

"This has nothing to do with 'impatience'," Zeng Guofan's voice was still slow, "This is a heroic encounter!" ”
