73. Before the Southern Tour (1)
The hall was originally dead and silent, Bao Jun lay on the ground, at this time his head was full of cold sweat disappeared without a trace, his face was pale, his lips were purple, obviously he was extremely frightened, he obviously understood that what the Empress Dowager Cixi said would never be empty words, the Empress Dowager Cixi sneered, and the originally frozen Dongnuan Pavilion suddenly burst out with some warmth, "Ouch, what is Gong Pei Gong doing, Lian Ying, help Gong Pei Yu up, I'm just joking," she turned around and sat back on the kang of the mountain, "How could I kill Ege, He is the most loyal minister of the country, and if I kill such a loyal minister, wouldn't it be too much of a sin? That's not even as good as a! Li Lianying pulled up Bao Jun hard, Bao Jun still couldn't stand up, she could only lean half of her body on Li Lianying's body, the Empress Dowager Cixi had a playful smile on her face, but there was no warmth in her eyes, and her cold eyes stared at Bao Jun, "I'm just joking."

She leaned on the kang and pointed to the orchid on the kang table, "Have you seen this pot of spring orchids, Emperor Wenzong's favorite is orchids, so in the past, when I entered the palace, it was the Lan nobles who were sealed, and now you are lucky, I saw this pot of orchids, and remembered the old things, I am embarrassed to kill the minister, let alone kill the previous heroes, Tongguang Zhongxing, how to say that you also have your credit," the Empress Dowager Cixi lowered her head and dialed the flower armor, and said leisurely, "Do you understand?" ”
"Minion," Bao Yun stammered, his underwear soaking wet, "Minion understood. ”
"It's good to understand," Empress Dowager Cixi nodded and said, "It's too late to change it now, but these things you got it, Sixth Master, do you know?" ”
"The prince doesn't know." Bao Jun hurriedly said.
The Empress Dowager Cixi looked at Baojun coldly, and when she saw his face, she seemed to understand something, "You can do it, okay, after talking for such a while, I am also tired, I look at your face is very bad, Xiao Lizi, help him down, and give him a bowl of ginseng soup in my palace." ”
When Bao Jun heard this, he suddenly struggled, "The slave doesn't dare to be born with the ginseng soup of the West Holy Master!" There is such a blessing in the minion! ”
The Empress Dowager Cixi seemed to understand something, and snorted coldly, "Don't worry, I didn't say that I wanted you to die, you can't die, your words today are okay, but words and deeds, in the end, it still has to be implemented in this action, Xiao Lizi, please Pei Gong go down, talk about how to make up for the merits, how to save the situation, lest this old man be old, but the boat capsized in the gutter, if it is stinking for 10,000 years, it will be bad." ”
Baojun was half-pulled and half-invited out of the door by Li Lianying, and the Empress Dowager Cixi sat up straight, "Ask Wang Kai to come." ”
After a while, Wang Kaiyun arrived, and the Empress Dowager Cixi instructed, "Baojun's business is done, don't worry about the national debt, next, first do the silk business, you go to Shanghai, get ready, so as not to have no work to cook when you get it!" ”
"Yes."
"Interesting, interesting," Empress Dowager Cixi's face showed an excited smile, which seemed to have a bloody and cruel taste in Wang Kaiyun's eyes, "Where are so many people performing on stage like a marquee in ordinary times, but today we can't just watch the play, if we don't sing a few times and show a few hands, others still think that we are not horns?" ”
"Yes," Wang Kaiyun was obviously prepared, not thinking that going to Shanghai was a troublesome thing, and agreed with his mouth, "Since you want to sing opera, you have to sing the whole set," Empress Dowager Cixi thought slightly, "You can't let people see through it easily, I don't want to call Dong Yuanol alone, you go to him, and say this thing like this, if you can handle it, then other problems will be taken care of." ”
"Isn't Xisheng going to pursue Baojun's sins?"
"Leave a line in everything, and we will see each other in the future. I used the example of He Shen to scare him, and it was just to scare him, after the autumn to settle accounts, I have always disapproved, Prince Gong and others have gone into the wilderness, and it is normal to make some small moves, they disregard the justice of the court, but I can't be ruthless and unjust, I have a better way to deal with him, and it makes him more uncomfortable than pursuing his sins," Empress Dowager Cixi glanced at Wang Kaiyun, "You went to Shanghai, you know, once the Sino-French war is over, your errand will not be saved, is it uncomfortable?" ”
"The West Sage said that he laughed, the thunder and rain and dew are all Jun's grace," Wang Kaiyun smiled freely, "Weichen doesn't care about these." ”
The next day, the earth-shattering news came out, the former Minister of Military Aircraft, who was very unoptimistic about the bonds, the head of the household department Baojun Pei Gong, spent a lot of money, spent four million taels of silver in one breath, all bought the Vietnam War bonds, he said in the excerpt to the imperial court, explained his intention to serve the country loyally, although the field retired, but this patriotism is not divided in its position, Zhishi at home, there is no other way to serve the country, can only buy bonds to support the country.
There was an uproar in the market for a while, and this Baojun inevitably turned around and fell too fast, right? There are faint rumors that why Bao Jun didn't let everyone buy this treasury bond before, the reason is that he heard the exact news from the old subordinates of the household department, the interest rate of the Vietnam War bonds can be floated, and the interest rate will be adjusted according to the victory or defeat of the war, according to the appearance of Lang Son's victory, the French are not vulnerable at all, in this case, the interest rate only rises, and will never fall, and then there is a news that the Foshan Guild has bought two million Vietnam war tickets, and is not afraid to pay it back at that time. Because the household department has taken Vietnam's fields, mines, timber, etc. as collateral, if you don't pay back the money at that time, you will directly use these resources to mortgage, Jingzhong has always been the world of Jin merchants, they are tired of playing finance, but they also want to change the taste of doing business, Bao Jun must have used smoke bombs to confuse everyone before, and after a few days he bought so many bonds, he was not afraid of Lu Fu being taboo by the imperial court.
Unexpectedly, the queen mother in the Chuxiu Palace instead issued an edict to reward Bao Jun, and gave a handwritten plaque "Duan Jing" to Bao Jun, so that since then, it is only 80 million Vietnam War bonds have gone to 6 million, plus bits and pieces, it will be close to 10 million in Beijing, and one day, Prince Zhuang Zaixun donated all the family land equivalent to 500,000 taels of silver to buy Vietnamese bonds, and several princes also bought them, so that all of a sudden the medium businessmen couldn't help it, they didn't know that Bao Jun and Zaixun were unwilling, Instead, they thought that this treasury bond was indeed very attractive, so they rushed to buy it.
