34. How to determine the turmoil (1)

Prince Gong was very surprised, what did he mean by this? Hu Linyi's eyes were fascinated, Li Hongzao's eyes widened, he fell to the ground, his expression was a little hideous, and the angry voice of the Queen Mother continued to sound behind the curtain, "The affairs of foreign affairs, after so many years, people outside still don't understand, and foreigners trade, the most important thing is to come in accordance with the contract and treaty, neither arrogant foreigners, nor let foreigners suffer grievances for no reason, if you still blindly report the idea of the Celestial Empire to do foreign affairs, sooner or later you will suffer, I also want to reproduce the great martial arts of the prosperous Kangqian era, and all countries will come to the court, but according to the current state." , like? Don't think that in the past few years, foreign vassals have come back to the DPRK, and it seems that they will be able to daydream triumphantly, when will we be able to win the foreigners face to face, and the East Asian hegemon can say that. ”

"Wei Yuan said a sentence in the Atlas of the Sea Kingdom, called: Master Yi's long skills to control Yi. Before learning the true skills of foreigners, you can't be arrogant, hum, Tianjin's affairs are fierce, in addition to some people with ulterior motives, the pride and complacency of the Chinese people are also accomplices, Zeng Guofan's excerpt has already said, if you talk about domineering, the French people can naturally be counted, but if you talk about illegal things, then there is really no, there is no thing, how to explain to the people? If there is such a mess, how can you explain it to the French? The more the Queen Mother spoke, the more angry she became, "I really don't feel at ease when the government is handed over to you!" ”

The Queen Mother's words were like a thunderclap, and Prince Gong hurriedly said, "The ministers are guilty!" Please punish the Queen Mother! ”

Everyone kowtowed again, and Prince Gong explained that he had ordered Jia Frame to order the Tianjin school and political leaders to restrain the students, and Bao Jun indicated that the household department had arranged for supervisors to sit in Tianjin, and a few investment promotion bureaus and government-run enterprises were not allowed to make trouble in it. The Queen Mother just didn't listen, "These are useless, the key is to quickly calm down the Tianjin teaching plan and discuss the king." You discuss more with Zeng Guofan, the matter must be solved, stability is paramount, if there is another turmoil, there is no need to mention any innovation, any foreign affairs. I have never heard that fighting every day can still make the country's fortunes prosperous! ”

Prince Gong and the others walked out of the Qinzheng Hall with a disgraced face, and Bao Jun wiped the sweat on his face, "The Queen Mother is so angry." ”

Prince Gong shook his head and didn't speak, and when he arrived at the duty room, several military ministers sat around, and Prince Gong took a sip of tea. Regardless of the cold, he drank it all in one gulp, his eyebrows locked, and he made up his mind, "The matter in Tianjin can't be delayed any longer," Prince Gong looked around at everyone, "It must be solved quickly." If this case is not settled, I am afraid of pro-government affairs. There is a repeat! ”

Li Hongzao nodded silently, and Baojun asked, "This matter has been handed over to Zeng Guofan, is that to send Qin over again?" ”

Wen Xiang shook his head, "When it comes to dealing with foreigners, no one in the DPRK and China can compare with Zeng Shaoquan, and if there are one or two diplomats who are proficient." The status, qualifications, and official positions are not as good as Zeng Guofan, and if he goes, he will add to the chaos. ”

"Yes, there is no need to send any more ministers," said Prince Gong, "and we need to think of ways to support Zeng Guofan." I have decided to ask the Queen Mother to make Zeng Guofan the governor of Zhili and take charge of Tianjin! ”

"What about the Governor of Liangjiang?" Bao Jun asked.

"Let him take care of it again, and follow the power in a hurry," Prince Gong said, looking at Li Hongzao, "Wait until the matter of Tianjin in the future, and then decide, now that it has been nine years of Tongzhi, the two terms will be changed, and the position of the governor of Liangjiang should also be changed to someone else, and it is not a grievance to give him the governor of Zhili, the head of the Xinjiang ministers." Master Li, in the land of the two rivers, the position of the envoys and inspectors of each province is very important, and when the time comes, what talents are there in the imperial history of Hanlin, I want you to recommend! ”

Li Hongzao's eyes moved, he originally wanted to refuse, but he thought of something, compromised, and nodded with complicated eyes, "Listen to the arrangement of the political king." ”

"Wenshan, you can repair another letter and give it to Zeng Guofan, you might as well speak more earnestly and explain the current situation clearly, he is not a fool and knows how to be better for the government." Wen Xiang nodded in response.

Prince Gong looked at Bao Jun, Bao Jun probably knew that he was going to bleed hemorrhage again, "The excerpt of Jinling Iron Works has not been passed, after all, Hanyang Iron Works is much better than Jinling, but Ma'anshan has found a large iron mine, and it is extremely convenient to go to Jinling, you first allocate some silver from the household department to him," Bao Jun asked how much, "You can give it to him directly within 500,000 yuan." ”

Baojun responded with a bitter face, and Prince Gong instructed Zhu Xueqin to find out the people who wanted to elect officials in the ministry, those who were guaranteed by Zeng Guofan, or the old subordinates of the Hunan army in the past, first elected officials to take office, and asked Hu Linyi to draft an edict to refute Zuo Zongtang's inappropriate words and be fined for three months.

In this way, it seems that Zeng Guofan is as important as Xuanhe in the past, but everyone understands that if the matter is not resolved this time, Zeng Guofan will not escape his responsibility.

In the screen behind the East Warm Pavilion of the Qinzheng Palace, the emperor listened quietly to the conversation inside, heard his mother's words, clenched his fists tightly, quietly took a few steps back, turned around, and left.

Chonghou anxiously waited in front of the Qincha Xingyuan to play a circle, the Qincha Xingyuan was very interesting, in the Tianjin Governor Yamen and a foreigner street in the middle of an inn, the inn had already been emptied, only arranged Zeng Guofan Qincha and his party, Chonghou sleeved his hands, looking outside, the wind and clouds, the wind and sand were all over the sky, the street was messy, this time, no one had a concept of secrecy, and the foreigners' ironclad ships were going to fight again! It suddenly aroused the old thing of more than ten years ago, in the rumble of artillery, the blonde and blue-eyed foreign devils attacked Tianjin, and the originally extremely lively street, only left a mess, and there were a few pedestrians on the street corner, who were also in a panic, hurrying away, and were unable to be in a hurry, and hurriedly asked the Qingke who came out to deal with it: "Mr. Liu, Lord Dutai, is this time free?" ”

Liu Rong smiled bitterly and coped, seeing Chonghou was very anxious, and had to comfort him, after half a cup of tea, Goshha came out to invite Chonghou in, in a clean small courtyard, Zeng Guofan wore a short shirt, sat on the bluestone, a small purple clay pot, soaked in Biluochun, and enjoyed the cool under a big jujube tree, with a book in his hand.

Zeng Guofan's hair has turned gray, and his face is wrinkled, he seems to be a bad old man, but between the closed eyes, the divine light is shining, it can be seen that the spirit is excellent, seeing that Chonghou is coming, Zeng Guofan put down the book in his hand and greeted Chonghou, "The governor is here, please take a seat, this is the best Biluo Spring in Taihu Lake this spring, in addition to dedicated to the Queen Mother, the rest is here for the old man, sit down, Xia Xian, you come to make tea for the governor." Zeng Guofan beckoned Liu Rong to make tea, and he was so anxious that Zeng Guofan couldn't help but smile when he fell in his eyes. (To be continued......)
