Chapter 510: Sharpen your knife and wait to chop wood

"[Qihang Book Club YY: 52448 welcome your arrival, this text is provided by Qihang Liuxiangxiang 571] In the second year of Shengdao and Yongzheng, the north and south of China were a piece of chickens and dogs, and Europe in 1719 was also in full swing. However, Li Shi's level of world history is not high, and he does not remember the four-nation alliance war between Spain and Britain, France, the Netherlands and Austria at the same time from 1718 to 1720, otherwise he would definitely question the authenticity of the Franco-Spanish alliance with Nanyang.

But this is not a deliberate rumor spread by the envoy of the King of Portugal, and the news in Europe has been delayed for more than half a year when it reaches Asia. When the army of King Marie V of Spain landed in Sardinia at the end of August 1718, the envoy knew much earlier than that. The Governor-General's report is based on concerns about the growing "rampant" activities of the Nanyang Company, a trend that began to show signs a year or two ago.

On the French side, the Jesuits, of course, played a trick and conveyed what was expected to happen to the Anglo-Chinese as if it had already happened, and the petition of the French missionaries probably had just arrived in the hands of the Pope.

Li Shi did not completely believe that the enemy must be France and Spain, whether judging from the time or the reliability of the news, this matter is not absolutely reliable after all. But Yinghua has set off a storm in the South Seas, and it is inevitable that the Europeans will react. Not to mention, Li Xi has already set a national policy, to first the south and then the north, and it is inevitable to pinch the Europeans in the South Seas.

Therefore, in the fog of history, even if the details are poor, Li Xianyi has set the direction and must concentrate on looking south.

Before that, there are some trivial matters in the north that need to be resolved first.

First of all, Sun Jiaqia, the Manchu envoy who had been in Guangzhou for two or three months, was an important person, and earlier in Hunan, Yanxin and dozens of Manchu nobles were arrested and are still being detained. As soon as Sun Jiaqia arrived in Guangzhou, Li Shi went to Hunan, and then the Wuchang incident happened, for which Yongzheng also paid a governor and a commander.

If you are an ordinary person, you will feel that this trip will never succeed, and you will even have to worry about your own safety. But Sun Jiaqia is a stunned person, according to the day, he goes to the Ministry of Rites every day to report, and fights in the ring with Liang Zaitan, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites. The Yamen of the Ministry of Rites is outside the Dazhong Gate, on the side of the Temple of Heaven, so the tourists who come to the Temple of Heaven for sightseeing can see a Manchu official answering eggs outside the Yamen of the Ministry of Rites every day, and the scene is very strange.

Although Liang Zaishen is a corrupt Confucian, his heart has long been close to this court, and he considers himself a minister of Huaxia Zhengshuo. His yamen is now very idle, and Sun Jiaqia, a simple sheep, came to the door, and he had fun, so he dragged Sun Jiaqia all day long to engage in Huayi debate.

Sun Jiaqia is a stunned person, and he dares to give a straightforward advice to the rumored cold-faced bloody Tu Yongzheng, who usurped the throne, and naturally will not be easily shaken by Liang Zaitan, a rotten Confucian. Liang Zailin regretted such a character, he was obsessed, and the two of them pointed to each other, and they actually sparked. It wasn't until Li Xi touched his head one day and remembered who Yongzheng seemed to have sent over, that Liang Zailin reluctantly handed over the person.

"It's okay to release people, make up the prison money, and then add horses to change. In addition, ......, Ma Huibo in Yunnan is very annoying, so ask your master to pull him back quickly. ”

Li Xi had no intention of entangling with the north at this time, and treated this matter as a business. Now that Yinghua has fewer horses, the money is even less at all times. He drove six thousand horses, and three hundred thousand taels of silver. At the same time, Ma Huibo in Yunnan also occupied an enclave to make trouble, and the Military Intelligence Department reported that this guy had signs of contact with the king of Burma, and Yongzheng had to quickly lead the dog home.

Sun Jiaqia also had no intention of bargaining, and hurriedly reported back this condition, Yongzheng waved his hand and changed! Horses and silver, just as much, Yunnan Ma Huibo, dismissed!

Of course, Yongzheng wanted to change, and helped Long Keduo get his son back earlier, laying the foundation for his position. Now that he is preparing to make a big new deal, Yun Wedge and Yun Marrow will have to be completely killed. It was at the critical juncture of asking for the full support of the Manchurian people, and it was of great help to ask for the extension letter and the 1,000 Manchu nobles. And Ma Huibo obviously can't make a name for himself in the enclave in the west of Yunnan, if this guy learns from his brother Ma Jianbo to poke out the big basket, it will be troublesome, and he will be relieved to get it back sooner.

Making Yongzheng's position more stable is Li Shi's established policy, but it does not mean that Yongzheng is protecting his son. Therefore, another person from the north, Li Xi took over. This person is Chen Wance, Li Guangdi's proud disciple, and Yun Hui's wise man. When Yongzheng seized the throne, he once suggested that Yunyue contact Li Xian and support the army to stand on his own. ,

When Yun Fade realized that as a Manchurian, it was impossible for him to stand on his own and return to Beijing after breaking the jar, Chen Wance knew that he would never end well in the north. After experiencing a fierce ideological struggle, he was persuaded by Nian Qianyao's think tank Zuo Weisheng and finally threw himself into Li Shi.

On the one hand, the matter of Wuchang was delayed, and on the other hand, Yu Hanyi of the Praetorian Guard Department did not trust him, and spent a lot of time checking back and forth.

After making a deal with Sun Jiaqia, Li Xiancai met with Chen Wance. Although this military advisor was born in science, he was full of Guiguziliu Emperor's art, and when he came up, he suggested to Li Xi that he should join the left and stir up the south of the Yangtze River on the right, and he would return to the Song Dynasty in three years. Li Xi sent him a sentence of "out of place", and he should praise him.

Seeing that he was incompatible with Yinghua's "Juche Thought", Li Shi asked him to go to Baicheng College for further study, and Chen Junshi was still hesitant, feeling that he was being treated slowly as a "celebrity".

Fortunately, he was also self-aware, and he was not used by Li Xi as a political bargaining chip in the north-south deal, so he was very satisfied, so he obediently packed his bags and went to Chengtian Mansion to become a student again.

Then Li Shi faced Zuo Weisheng, who was even more pregnant with a belly of vertical and horizontal skills, and it seemed that this year, Qianyao was very thoughtful.

Zuo Weisheng said: "What Nian Lianggong did earlier has touched the taboo of the emperor in the north, even if he is illustrious and favored today, it is difficult to guarantee that he will be cooked by lackeys one day." Therefore, Nian Lianggong sent Zuo to come, hoping to have a good relationship with the emperor. Today, I hope to be adjacent to the emperor Duncheng, if there is a change in the other day, I am willing to offer Shaanxi, Gansu and Sichuan ...... to the emperor, hearing this, Li Xianxin said, Nian Qianqiang is not stupid, he can think of the back road early, in the time and space of the previous life, how could he end up like that?

Nian Qianqiang is indeed not stupid, and he is especially good at riding the wall. Earlier, he rode the wall between Lao Ba and Yongzheng, and Fourteen and Yongzheng, and now he wants to ride the wall between him Li Xi and Yongzheng.

Ride it, just ride it, anyway, it's not yourself who will burst the eggs at that time...... As for what to offer Shaanxi, Gansu and Sichuan, he only sent his henchmen, and he didn't even want to write a word in his own hand, this kind of sincerity, Li Xian could only scoff at it.

Now Li Shi didn't think about taking any Shaanxi, Gansu and Sichuan, and if he took it, he would have to face a line of Tibet, Qinghai and Junggaria, and he didn't have the energy to take care of it. As long as Nian Qianqiang doesn't make trouble in Sichuan, he will be "adjacent to him".

sent Zuo Weisheng away, and then dealt with Li Ba, the governor of Fujian who was arrested by the Praetorian Guard Department. By Li Ba, Li Shi thought of Shi Shiji, who was still squatting in Fujian and exerting his strength to save the sunken ship in Taiwan.
