Twenty-four, jade bead curtain (final)
"Let's seal Dorobelle, this allows him to choose a son hereditary," Dorobelle, originally a Manchu aristocratic title, that is, a different translation of "Bo Jilie" in the Jin Dynasty. After the founding of the Qing Dynasty, it became the title of the clan, and its full name was Dorobelle. The Empress Dowager said, "The monk king Jiali Domain's Shangshu, and the Ministry of Internal Affairs will give you some gold and silver, which will be enough." ”
"Yes, Shengbao has the rank of squire of the military department, and he is knighted as a second-class lieutenant of the light car, and he still leads the original military affairs, and the minister of the Qin mission still gives it to him."
"Wu Yundi was originally the acting commander of the Jianrui Battalion, remove the acting minister, and then add the minister of the rank, and then ask the Queen Mother to give him a good general title."
The Queen Mother thought slightly, "Let's seal General Fenwei, and his wife will also be sealed." ”
"Empress Dowager Shengming," Prince Gong said, then took out a booklet from his sleeve and handed it to Yang Qingxi, "This is the list prepared by Quanqing, and the military aircraft has prepared the meaning of disposal, please take a look at it." ”
"Well," Cixi took the booklet and spread it out with a sense of anger, "are they all fines?" It's too light! ”
"Yes, it's lighter, but the slave thinks that the emperor is a new treasure, the foundation is not stable, and the words are terrifying, these people don't know how much to do behind them, and they are estimated to be under the door of the scholar, and the slave does not hide it from the queen mother, there are really some people, and they have something to do with the slave."
"The punishment is really light," the Empress Dowager Cixi shook her head, "that day, the palace was there, but instead, hey, it was really hateful!" Let's put it in place first, and then negotiate with the military aircraft when it's ready. ”
"Yes."
"Sixth Master," the Empress Dowager Cixi suddenly came out of her mind, and then called Prince Gong, and Prince Gong hurriedly said yes, "Sixth Master, do you think the most important thing at the moment is what we should do?" You just have to tell the truth, although this palace is a woman, but she also knows the truth that if you listen to it, you will believe it in the dark. ”
Although Cixi has the soul of later generations, she became a leader in her own family. Only then did I know that governing the country was far from being as simple as I imagined, and it was not like helping Emperor Xianfeng to correct and correct in the past. It seems that everything is extremely important, and everything seems to be a top priority. How can the lessons learned in later generations guide the present faltering empire? The Queen Mother was in desperate need of a guiding opinion.
"The slave thinks that it is natural to take care of the flood rebellion first, as the queen mother said, the Taiping rebels are wreaking havoc in the splendid land of the south of the Yangtze River, resulting in the tax revenue in the south of the Yangtze River not coming up, and the Cao Yun is also a great loss, and the first thing to consolidate the internal affairs is to calm down the rebellion!"
"It's nature, and now it's all over the country. It is necessary to pacify the Taiping army, this is indeed the first thing, but Hong Shun is already trapped in Jinling City, and its destruction is a foregone conclusion, "Cixi is full of confidence, the Taiping army in this time and space has been limited to death by herself, and she can only suffer from Jiangsu and Zhejiang. Now it is even more Jinling City, which is a hundred miles away, and does not dare to haunt it, so if it is still calm, what to talk about reversing the situation, and talking about reincarnation. "And after that?"
Prince Gong thought about it for a while, this monarch and ministers are right, different from the past. It is necessary to consider it carefully, "the slave thinks that the first thing is to rectify the rule of officials, Mencius said that the harsh government is fiercer than the tiger, and the court from top to bottom, from the military aircraft to the local governors, and then to the provinces and townships are all officials to implement the decrees." Emperor Sejong once said that 'governing the country is governing the officials', and the servants thought that now that there are many useless people, it is time to rectify the rule of officials, and the rule of officials is clear, and the people's will will naturally be biased, and there will be no situation where there are many people who raise the flag and shout against them. ”
"This is natural, I am naturally familiar with a few people from the Military Aircraft Department, experienced for the country, diligent in work, the sixth master will think about it properly when he goes back, and then he will go to Chen. What should it be? The Queen Mother humbly accepted the advice and continued to ask.
"After Jiangnan was ravaged by Hong Yang, the number of officials decreased, and there were many generals of the Hunan army serving as local officials, which had advantages and disadvantages, unified power and responsibility, and gathered people's hearts to resist rebellion, which is the pros and cons also came from here, the generals disregarded the local livelihood, blindly squeezed, and only asked for military pay to support the army, which is exhaustive and fishing, and can not be repeated, in addition, there are many redundant officials in Beijing," Prince Gong smiled bitterly, "The slaves really can't support it, the treasury is empty, and even the rats will starve to death, and the taxes and cents of Jiangnan have been requisitioned by Zeng Guofan on the spot, No longer solve into the central household department of Beijing, Jiangnan rebelled, the Central Plains twisted thieves, Shandong floods, Guangdong Zhili was ravaged by foreigners, several rich places in the world are like this, Shi Dakai killed a horse gun again, re-entered Gui, Eight Banners Ding Salary, Military Salary, Hundred Officials and Lu, these pieces are indispensable, Shen Zhaolin and Baojian have gray hair in the household department, and the slaves are also poor. ”
Saying this, it turned to the matter of financial planning, Cixi thoughtfully, "These money can't be saved, and if you deduct a little bit, something big will happen." ”
"Yes, fortunately, I copied the mansion of Zheng Yi and the others, and only then did I fool the reward of the Hundred Officials' New Year," Prince Gong frowned, and it was not until he was in power that he knew that this king was not so easy to be!
"I don't know how expensive firewood, rice, oil, and salt are at home," Cixi sighed, "Then you can only save some first, the palace is below me, all the meals are reduced, and the consumption is also reduced by half, and you can save a little is a little, and the emperor is not allowed to reduce it, the emperor is when he is long, and he can't save food and clothing," said to Prince Gong, who is now leading the errand of the Minister of the Interior, Prince Gong said, "How can this be done?" The Queen Mother's spending must not be saved! ”
"It's okay, there are so many people in the palace, the emperor is still young, there are no concubines, and the concubines and concubines left by the first emperor are not many, everyone doesn't need much, and this is also temporary, the palace will naturally make it clear to them, and in the future, the country will be more relaxed, and it will naturally recover, and there will be a search for the eunuchs and palace maids in the palace and everywhere in the palace garden, the eunuchs are old, and there are people to take care of them when they leave the palace, and they will be sent out of the palace with grace, and the palace maids will be sent out together to let them marry," Cixi sighed a little, "Now it is different from the Xianfeng Dynasty, Then they might be able to fly up to the branches. ”
Prince Gong was slightly embarrassed, but he didn't say much, "The Queen Mother is merciful." Cixi came back to her senses, "This can also save some chewing, before leaving the palace, call someone to use the dictionary to coach one by one, you must know a few words, out of the palace will not be blind, and you can marry in the future." ”
"How much property did Duanhua Zaiyuan's family steal?"
"There are more than 10 million in total, and some calligraphy and painting antiques have not yet been estimated."
"So much?" The Queen Mother was very surprised, and then muttered to herself, "It would be nice if you made tens of millions of dollars like this again." Raising his head, he saw that Prince Gong's face was stiff, and then he woke up, "This palace is just a joke, and now that the dust has settled, naturally I won't do anything about raiding the house."
