"Position, it just happened that Shaanxi and Gansu came out of chaos, it was very empty, and they could be arranged," the specific operation matters still have to be discussed with the Military Aircraft Department, this matter also involves the Ministry of Rites, and now it is not busy with the abolition of the donation of officials, and the household department does not have to jump out, so Gao Xinkui does not have to talk about it, this matter is good, the Empress Dowager Cixi continued: "Then do you think that this Nanyang Naval Division can be successful?" ”⊥,……
"Lord Wang," Bao Jun was in Prince Gong's study, a few people from the Military Aircraft Department had just had a banquet, and they were drinking tea in the study to eliminate food, Yunnan sent an excellent Pu'er, just to consume food, a few people just said some gossip, and naturally turned to political affairs, "Do you think this Zuo Zongtang's Nanyang Sailor can be successful?" ”
Jia Jian has never participated in the private gatherings of the Gong Party, Li Tangjie died last year, and the emperor's master Li Hongzao was added, he is the leader of Qingliu, the boss of Shilin, and the cliff shore is arrogant, so naturally he will not come to participate in the party of these people who think he thinks "Yiyi changes China", so this group is just Prince Gong, Wenxiang Baojun, Cao Yuying, and four people. “
Bao Jun asked, Prince Gong shook his head, "This thing is difficult to do," the original household Han Shangshu Shen Zhaolin joined the military aircraft in the first year of Tongzhi, and when the Shaanxi-Gansu rebellion broke out, he moved to the governor of Shaanxi and Gansu. Although Bao Jun has some posture of a gentleman, but the money of the household department is well managed, at least he knows the current family background, Prince Gong said, "You are in charge of the household department, don't you know it yet?" What do you have to say all this for nothing, you can buy a warship without spending money? The head is empty! ”
"That's the truth, Lord Wang, you also know, now that the chaos has just been settled, this hundred wastes are waiting to be revived, there is money to be used there, it is also strange to say, these Huizi, it is really hateful, this Yunnan, there is a Huizi to make trouble, although the matter is small, but after all, it is also a war, this silver can be spent," Bao Jun said with a bitter face, "If it weren't for the strength of the customs, the gold in these provinces would be in the hands of the household department, and now there would be no rice in the pot!" ”
Cao Yuying coughed slightly, since the beginning of spring, his body has not been very good, this banquet, he has never drunk, he took a deep breath, "But today I saw the meaning of the Queen Mother's words, obviously tempted." ”
"It's time to be tempted, I heard it at first glance, and I was also tempted," Bao Jun almost jumped up when he heard Wen Xiang say this, Wen Xiang raised his hand and pressed it, "Don't worry, match, I don't know the difficulties of your household?" So she didn't speak, the Queen Mother didn't nod at that time, and she also knew the difficulties. ”……
"Hey, it's hard for a good woman to cook without rice, this has no silver, what should I do with the water master!" Empress Dowager Cixi sighed, "This Beiyang sailor has been scolded to death, saying that it is a waste of money, useless, after all, in the past few years, the sailor has been raised there without moving, not to mention the Western countries, even overseas vassals have not been there, no wonder they gossip, let alone to build a Nanyang sailor, the left madman is in Zhejiang and Fujian as a leader, the emperor is far away, if he enters Beijing, this head is estimated to be full of bags." ”
"Didn't the mother mean to approve?"
"I'm in favor, but after all, I don't have any money," the Empress Dowager Cixi spread her hands, "Don't say it's the household department, even if I have more treasures in this inner library, I can't afford to raise this water division," the Empress Dowager Cixi thought about the expenditure of the Beiyang Navy Division in recent years, and her head couldn't help but jump with green tendons, full of black lines, no wonder so many people don't like to build a navy, the water division is really a money-burning thing, "10 million a year, has made the household department work hard, I see, this Shen Zhaolin is gone," the Empress Dowager Cixi was a little dissatisfied, and her voice turned cold," There is no one in the household department. ”
Bao Jun is in charge of the household, Cixi was originally not very satisfied with him, this dissatisfaction was still in the Xianfeng Dynasty, at that time Cixi accompanied the emperor to live in the Old Summer Palace, this Bao Jun is the minister of the Old Summer Palace, he did not dare to straighten his waist to Su Shun, and he dared to push back against himself who was still a concubine, these are small things, but once the leader is dissatisfied with you, small things can also become the fuse, Cixi snorted coldly, "Luo Xuanyan doesn't understand the things here, and he still has to rank up a competent talent." ”
"It can only be postponed, now it is better to wait for a few years, Zuo Zongtang said that he wants to run a few water master schools in the place, this is accurate, he is crazy, not a fool, he knows how to retreat and seek second," Empress Dowager Cixi changed the topic, "Let him send some seeds first, so that in the future, there will be a surplus, and the wildfire will burn, so that it can be more vigorous." ”
"Shi Dakai has established a state in India," the Queen Mother's words could not hear the joy and sorrow, "what do you think?" (To be continued......)
