Chapter 18: Sing for Me

Guan Zhuofan was slightly stunned and said, "Please ask." ”

Yan Jingming said slowly: "The household department is like a mountain of malpractices, clean up the accounts, and dismiss the staff, but just brush off the dust, I don't know how much mud there is below?" If you look down again, it is a big or small malpractice, and it is not a matter of the household family. ”

Guan Zhuofan smiled silently.

Yan Jingming continued: "I heard that Lord Beile rectified the Eight Banners and embraced the purpose of 'shattering bones and bones'; ”

After a pause, he said: "As long as Lord Belle agrees to me, no matter which yamen is found, no matter who is found in the case, no matter who is found, I will not interfere, then, I will pay for the restoration of the original life of the Beijing official." Otherwise, Lord Belle had to change someone else to be the head of the household. ”

Yan Jingming's voice was very calm, and Guan Zhuofan looked at him with a smile and didn't speak.

After a while, Guan Zhuofan suddenly sighed and said, "Let me guess, the 'fraud case' of the household department, the first to bear the brunt, is about military reimbursement. ”

Yan Jingming's eyes flashed, and he said, "Lord Belle Mingjian, Jingming admires." ”

Guan Zhuofan sighed again and said, "I have also been reimbursed for this military expense." ”

Yan Jingming snorted and said, "If it is found that Lord Beile has handled the reimbursement of military expenses, and there are any illegal and malpractices, Jingming will handle it as one." If Lord Belle doesn't want to set himself on fire, he still said just now, and change someone else to be the head of the household. ”

Guan Zhuofan was silent for a moment, and suddenly laughed out loud: "Okay, good." Yan Danchu is really a real man! ”

There was a pause. Said: "Danon. I promise you that I will not interfere in the case of the household department, no matter which yamen is found, no matter whose head is found! ”

Yan Jingming's eyes were shining, and he said, "A gentleman's word! ”

Guan Zhuofan raised his hand and said word by word: "Hurry up and whip!" ”

The two of them smacked their palms lightly and laughed at the same time.

Guan Zhuofan smiled and said: "I will add a small condition, otherwise it will be too much of a loss - Dan Weng." Sing a little play for me. ”

In the next few days, the government and the opposition were boiling.

First of all, the "Feng'en Fund" was officially distributed, and the low-level clans and idle clans were elated, just like the New Year.

The other flag men and Han soldiers were angry, and Guan Beile made a fold, "for the sake of Enfu in Beijing."

Raise the dynasty to be a sensation.

Han Zhan Kedao was even more chaotic.

When Hong Yang was in turmoil, the Beijing officials began to live a tight life, especially Leng Cao Yamen. Han Zhan Kedao is not a "Leng Cao Yamen" in the real sense, but the identity of "Qinggui" is just a virtual glossy. They never have more money in their hands, and there is hardly any chance of enriching themselves; There is a lot of socializing. Without the help of foreign officials' "Bing Jing" and "Tan Jing", life would not have been able to go on.

However, except for the popular officials, the "Bing Jing" and "Tan Jing" that other people get their hands on are actually quite limited. In order to maintain the necessary pomp, it is common for officials to borrow money to get by. If there is no "study trip" or two in the year, at the end of the year, how to repay the debt is the most troublesome problem.

And now, it's not too far from the end of the year.

As soon as Guan Beile "regained the original affairs of the officials in Beijing for Enfu", the officials couldn't help but sigh from the bottom of their hearts: Good people!

Guan Zhuofan's excerpt, Yu Han Zhan Kedao, is a real "moral politics", and the officials not only "have a long drought and meet nectar"; Moreover, this is not a one-shot deal, this is a long-term meal ticket!

Han Zhan Kedao's mentality towards Guan Zhuofan is complicated, and it was generally believed that he "suppressed speech", but since Zhang Zhidong was appointed as the Minister of Shipping of Fujian, this view has begun to change. Many people think that although Guan is not overbearing, he does appoint people on the basis of merit, and there is no discrimination against words. Yanlu itself and Guan Zhuofan have no real conflict of interest, and some Yanlu was used as a gun, pushed to the front to oppose Guan, which affected the entire Yanlu and couldn't be drawn.

In this railway incident, many officials who have nothing to do with themselves uphold such an attitude. In the provinces where the "Beijing-Shanghai line" does not pass, the provincial officials are reluctant to speak; Even if the provinces through which the "Beijing-Shanghai line" passes, if their hometown is far away from the line, although they cannot but perfunctory their fellow villagers in the province, they are not very energetic.

After the news of Guan Zhuofan's fold came out, Han Zhan Kedao's perception of Guan had a complete change: he is really a good leader who is considerate and affectionate! If the ruler practices this "moral government", who else can he support if he does not support him?

After a scramble among the officials, they reached the following tacit understanding:

First, the great good thing of "restoring the original 俸" cannot be stirred up in any case!

Second, on the matter of the railway, the provinces have their own words and will no longer sign jointly.

Third, when attacking the excerpts of the railway, pay attention to the wording, only talk about the harm of the railway, and never involve anyone in the text.

Everyone tacitly agreed: if you don't sign the fold, you won't be able to form enough momentum, and the power of the attack on the railway will be greatly reduced; Everyone speaks their own words, and some people refuse to speak hard words, and even stop talking. However, the railway is someone's business, and the salary increase is their own business, which is more important?

One by one's thoughts, like coals, a basin of cold water poured down: Yan Jingming let out the words - the household has no money!

The officials were like falling into an ice cellar, and it was difficult to say anything on the table, and the crowd was indignant in private: How could there be no money? I don't fight big battles anymore, I have done so many foreign affairs, and I have more hair growth! Besides, if there is no money, where will the money from the "Bong'en Fund" come from?

Someone said coldly: The money of the "Feng'en Fund" was found by Guan Beile on his own ideas, not the money paid by the household.

Someone hesitated and said: Jingguan's Yulu, uh, I mean, can you also follow the path of the "Feng'en Fund" for this part of the added back?

Someone scoffed: Dude is too whimsical, isn't he? The money from the "Bong'en Fund" was made up from the top of the foreign affairs -- well, may I ask if the railway is considered a foreign business?

Someone muttered: Alas, what kind of foreign affairs and railways are attacking, and you have tied your hands and feet to death!

In the end, I had to scold in unison: Yan Laoxi'er is too fucking!

was grieving and indignant, and a piece of news came out from the military plane: the next day, there was a "call" from Yan Jingming; Moreover, the imperial minister who led the class was temporarily replaced, and he was changed from King Alcohol to Guan Beile.

Yo, this is obviously Guan Beile wants to be with the Queen Mother of the Two Palaces to "persuade" Yan Jingming to "comply"!

Everyone's hope is rekindled: No matter how stubborn Yan Jingming is, he can't stand up to being so "hard" from above, right?

But some people also think that Yan Jingming's bear temper, once it really kicks in, the "top" may not be able to persuade him; It's a big deal to be in a hurry, it's a big deal to "hang up the crown and beg to go" - this kind of thing, Yan Danchu did it!

Someone said: Okay, he doesn't do the Hubu Shangshu, naturally someone will do it! Wouldn't this be the end of the matter if you were obedient?

Someone smiled wryly: How long has Yan Danchu been in the household department? He is the person who protects Guan Baylor, and he won't do it after half a year, isn't that a slap in the face of Guan Baylor? Guan Beile may not be willing to "defeat yesterday's me"! I think that if Yan Lao Xi'er is stubborn to the end, Guan Beile may not be able to beat him!

As a result, many people did not sleep well this night.

The next day, everyone's eyes widened, their ears pricked up, and they were engrossed in the news of the Heart Cultivation Palace.

However, Yan Jingming's "start" was arranged relatively late, and it was not until the end of the day that it was Yan Jingming's turn to "call up".

This "rise" dragged on for a very long time, and it took almost half an hour before Guan Beile took Yan Jingming out of the East Warm Pavilion of the Heart Cultivation Palace.

Many people had no intention of working all morning, and some people stayed up so hard that they yelled inexplicably, and their colleagues looked at them strangely, so they had to say that their feet suddenly cramped.

But the good news finally came out: Yan Jingming said, "Enfu is in Beijing, and the household department undertakes the decree and does his best."

The whole world celebrates.

Someone burst into tears of excitement.

In the afternoon of the same day, the "advisory committee" of Yinwan Hutong also spread the news: Guan Beile had "painted" for the construction of the "Beijing-Shanghai line".

A few excerpts against the construction of the railroad were handed over in a sparse manner.

Soon, an edict was issued: Minister Wang, the cabinet, the military aircraft, the six ministries, and Han Zhan Kedao gathered at the Yamen meeting of the Prime Minister's Affairs.

The main content of the meeting, which had been foretold in advance: the railway.
