Chapter 253: Admiral of Guangzhou (Fourth Watch)
Located in the western suburbs of Beijing, the Three Mountains and Five Gardens were the palaces of the Manchu Emperors.
From Kangxi to Qianlong, it has become a scale.
The three mountains are Wanshou Mountain, Xiangshan Mountain and Yuquan Mountain, and the three mountains also have Qingyi Garden (Summer Palace), Jingyi Garden, Jingmingyuan, in addition to the nearby Changchun Garden and Yuanmingyuan, collectively known as the Five Gardens, are the emperor's palace.
After Xianfeng took power, most of the time he was not in the Forbidden City, but played in the Three Mountains and Five Gardens, and pulled the concubines to roll in bed every night, spreading branches and leaves for Aixin Jueluo.
The Old Summer Palace is a place frequented by Xianfeng.
It's not a sandalwood-surrounded bedroom. Xianfeng's bony body was constantly moving in the body of a fair-skinned woman. The sky thundered and the earth fire, Xianfeng roared, the woman pursed her lips, and a faint moan came out. As the bed creaked and swayed, the battle intensified and became intense.
When Xianfeng stopped, his body pressed against the woman's body and did not move, and the woman's face also showed a smile like a flower. This time, I will definitely be able to conceive a dragon.
"Step! Trample!! ”
A duck-like voice came from outside the bedroom: "The joint audience of the ministers of the imperial dynasty is waiting outside." ”
Xianfeng frowned slightly, why did the minister come to the Old Summer Palace. Fortunately, Xianfeng was already done, although his spirit was a little sluggish, he cheered up and ordered: "Send the important ministers of the court to the palace and wait, I will arrive later." ”
The eunuch retreated quietly.
Xianfeng stood up from the bed, stood on the ground, and stretched out his hands to swing a large one. The woman who was rolling on the bed with Xianfeng stood up and put on a thin veil. The woman is extremely watery, her body is fair, her eyes are watery, her body should be convex, and she should be warped, and she is tempting, revealing a breathtaking feeling.
Especially a pair of three-inch golden lotus, Xianfeng can't put it down, so this woman will be favored by Xianfeng. The woman stood beside Xianfeng and squatted down to clean up Xianfeng's body.
It took a while for the woman to stand up.
Xianfeng looked at the busy woman in front of him, smiled and stretched out his thin hand to grab the woman's full breasts, and then walked around the woman's smooth skin, and finally stopped in the lower abdomen, and said with a smile: "Beauty, I will deal with political affairs first, and then deal with you when I come back." ”
The woman hummed, but she didn't stop and obediently dressed Xianfeng.
Soon, Xianfeng put on a dragon robe wrapped around his belt, and strode out towards the crown and dragon boots. It's just that Xianfeng walked with a light step, like a drunken person.
Walked to the main hall and sat down on the dragon chair.
Immediately, all the ministers of the DPRK and China knelt down and saluted, shouting long live.
Xianfeng waved his hand to let the minister get up and said in a deep voice: "What is the important matter for you Aiqing to arrive at the Old Summer Palace?" ”
As soon as the words fell, a middle-aged man in his forties stood up.
This man has a slightly chubby face, three short beards, bright eyes, and a majestic aura. This person's name is Sushun, Manchuria, the blue flag people, the nobleman of the clan Aixinjue, the Luo clan, and the seventh grandson of Prince Zheng Xian, the son of Prince Zheng Shen, Wuer Gong'a. Su Shun served as the imperial guard, served as the waiter of the Ministry of Works, and the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, and is now in charge of the household department, which is powerful and powerful.
Su Shun said loudly: "The Emperor of Qiqi heard that Li Zhenjian of Haidaotai abandoned the military uniforms of the Qing soldiers and openly changed the positions of the soldiers in the army. Such a change was abandoned, and the ancestors were rebellious, and the sin deserved death! ”
"Lord Sushun is ridiculous!"
As the words fell, a young man in his early twenties stood up.
This person is Yu Xuan, his sword eyebrows are in his sideburns, his eyes are like morning stars, the bridge of his nose is high, his lips are thin, and he is a talent, standing in the hall, and he has a feeling of standing out from the crowd.
This person is Xianfeng's younger brother Prince Gong.
Yi and Gui Liang are people in the same boat, and Yi also supports reform, objecting: "Lord Sushun, in today's world, foreigners are rampant, and it has reached the point where it is not enough to keep the ancestral inheritance without change. You look at those places where there is no change, the generals fled in embarrassment when they encountered foreigners, but Li Zhen defeated foreigners again and again, and won glory for our Qing Dynasty. ”
After a pause, Yi Yi said: "The emperor has a good way of employing people, and he has discovered the beauty of Li Zhen's talent, and what is needed is reuse, not punishment." Thinking that at the beginning, Li Zhen was just a sesame-sized general, and the emperor promoted and appointed Li Zhen as Haidaotai and concurrently served as the governor of Jianghaihai, so Li Zhen had the opportunity to show his talent. ”
A faint smile appeared on Xianfeng's face when he heard this.
Promoting Li Zhen is the most proud thing in Xianfeng's heart.
Su Shun's eyes rolled to the side, and Du Han stood up again. This Du Han is Xianfeng's teacher, and Du Shoutian's son is reused by Xianfeng. Du Han firmly stood on Su Shun's side and begged Xianfeng to punish Li Zhen.
Immediately, Zaiyuan and Duanhua stood up again.
Zaiyuan and Duanhua are both nobles of the Qing royal family, Duanhua is the thirteenth son of Kangxi, the fifth grandson of Yinxiang, belongs to the iron hat king, and is very important in the court. Duanhua was the brother of Su Shun, a native of Manchuria with the Blue Banner, and the third son of Prince Zheng Xian, Prince Zierharang, and Prince Zheng Shen, Wuer Gonga.
These people were all great nobles of the Manchu Qing Dynasty.
Su Shun, Zaiyuan and Duanhua insisted on punishing Li Zhen and embarrassed Xianfeng.
Even if I saw it, I felt a headache.
Xianfeng was in a dilemma, he didn't want to offend these Manchu ministers, because these ministers were also for the sake of the Qing Dynasty. But Xianfeng didn't want to punish Li Zhen, because Li Zhen had made achievements. In other words, other emperors didn't care about the opinions of the courtiers at all, but Xianfeng was indecisive, had no opinion when the quarrel was fierce, and didn't know what to do.
"Report!"
Suddenly, there was a loud shout from outside the main hall.
A eunuch hurriedly walked in, knelt on the ground, and said, "Ye Mingchen, the governor of the emperor and Guangzhou, sent a message to the British and French forces to start attacking Guangzhou after assembling off the coast of Guangzhou. At present, Ye Mingchen has not left Guangzhou. ”
"Shhh Hiss! ”
Xianfeng gasped and felt even more headache. His father, Emperor Daoguang, encountered the attack of foreigners, leaving him full of humiliation, and now he has encountered enough bad luck.
When Su Shun heard this, not only did he not think of a way, but said righteously: "The reason why the Huangyang people sent troops like this is actually because Li Zhen forced him too hard. As long as Li Zhen is punished, the anger of foreigners will inevitably be eliminated. ”
"Pedantic!"
Yi snorted, staring at Su Shun like a knife, and said in a deep voice: "In the past, the foreigners attacked Guangzhou, and the imperial court investigated Lin Zexu, didn't the foreigners attack Guangzhou?" If the foreigners come over, then send troops to meet the battle. ”
Yi, who is in his early twenties, is obviously thinking about making a career.
Su Shun immediately said: "Sixth Prince, do you think it is easy to fight? It takes a lot of money. Moreover, the artillery fire of the foreigners was extremely powerful and difficult to resist. If you fight with foreigners, you will inevitably suffer a crushing defeat, and then you will be locked into negotiations. The best way is to make a big thing small and eliminate the anger of foreigners. ”
Yi shook his head and looked at Xianfeng and said, "Although the Huangyang people are rampant, they are not irresistible. Isn't Li Zhen the best candidate? Li Zhen was still dealing with the Taiping army that attacked the camp in Jiangbei, and the emperor could send an order to Li Zhen to order Li Zhen to solve the problem within half a month, and this Taiping army went south to Guangzhou to face the battle. ”
"Good way!"
Xianfeng's eyes lit up and asked, "What do you think Aiqing?" ”
There was silence in the hall, and no one objected.
Whoever opposes this kind of thing and leads the troops to stop it, and Su Shun has become dumb.
The corners of Xianfeng's mouth hooked up a smile, and he commanded loudly: "It is decreed that Li Zhen has been promoted to the governor of Guangzhou and is limited to go south to Guangzhou to defend against foreigners within half a month. After a pause, Xianfeng ordered again: "Order Ye Mingchen, the governor of Liangguang, to let him defend Guangzhou, and Li Zhen will arrive in Guangzhou in half a month." ”
"Wow!"
The eunuch immediately responded, and soon drew up the decree.
This time, Xianfeng appointed Li Zhen as the governor of Guangzhou, and once again became a one-party admiral, worthy of the name, and was truly a feudal official. But at this moment, Li Zhen, who is far away in Changshu County, Jiangsu, is still planning to take Li Xiucheng and solve the Qin Rigang matter, which has reached the most important key point.
