A new journey of accumulating wealth
Chapter 416 Journey to the Homeland 3 in 1
This southern tour is particularly hasty!Once you get to Hangzhou, you can't go any further.The Queen Mother passed away, so a funeral must be held.The emperor ruled the world with benevolence and filial piety, and he didn't ask the queen mother to stop her spirit, so he continued to tour the south.
Thus, the southern tour ended in an anticlimactic manner.
When I went back, except for the fifth elder brother, the other emperor elder brothers were basically healed, only the fifth elder brother couldn't get out of bed for the time being.Qianlong originally wanted to keep the fifth elder brother, but Concubine Yu was unwilling to live or die. It was a joke, it was the safest to follow the empress dowager.It would be safer if the imperial physician stayed around without following the empress dowager's boat.
Today's boat is very stable and does not hinder recovery.
Concubine Yu insisted, and did not hesitate to rush to Lin Yutong's side and kneel down, Lin Yutong sent a message to Qianlong, asking to move the fifth elder brother to this side of the boat for easy care.
But it was not only the fifth elder brother who came, but also Qianlong.Followed by a string of people, all the beds were moved when they came.
"The son should live with Huang Ama and Huang'eriang, so that he can feel at ease." Qianlong said so.
The recent incident made Qianlong feel uneasy, he could find Twelfth Uncle's dead men by his side, so who else could tell?In the past few days, he has to have someone he trusts by his side to be safe.
Wu Shulai and Fu Heng came in rotation.Wu Shulai is nothing more than a slave, but Fu Heng has a special position, and he has to deal with many things.Now I can't rest here at night, and I'm busy all day during the day, and I can't bear the iron.Fu Heng, who was a little fat and slightly fat, was getting thinner and thinner day by day.It's also good that Hong Zhou can change shifts, but Hong Zhou has a big heart, saying that Brother Huang, you can sleep at ease, and I will guard you.But in fact, before Qianlong fell asleep, Hongzhou's snoring was loud.After waking him up, he even pretended to protect his brother, and slept with him on the dragon bed, and said that he was in the bed.But good guy, kicking arms and stretching legs, it feels more terrifying than being an assassin directly.
Completely unable to stay!
He came here during the day yesterday to discuss the return journey with Huang Ama, but who knows when Huang Ama went to wash up, he fell asleep directly on the couch.I fell asleep this time, from sleeping in the morning to holding the lamp for ten minutes.If it wasn't for being hungry, I would have to go to bed.These days, this is the most solid sleep he has had.
The boats here are relatively empty, and there are plenty of places.He came over directly, and arranged Yongqi a little far away, and he took the place closest to his Ama.
The fourth master was so annoying, "Go back, it's okay, I'll show you. No one would dare to do anything to you without me. Even if your twelfth uncle had the guts of a bear, he wouldn't dare to point the finger at you." you."
Lord Qianlong is not so optimistic, "Uncle Twelve has concerns, but there are still people who don't. There is no shortage of rebels in Jiangnan. Now that there are rumors outside, these people just take advantage of it. Their news is lagging behind and they haven't responded yet. Come here. When the reaction comes, the return journey may not be smooth."
So, you live here?
Lin Yutong rolled her eyes in her heart.Really unfilial son!Knowing that those people may be dealing with you, you still live next to your ama, but you are really not afraid of hurting your old arms and legs.I really thought that you, Ama, were Zhenshan Taisui, and all the ghosts and ghosts would automatically disperse when you get there.
Fourth master really rolled his eyes, and left a sentence, "Live here if you want."
Not to mention that it was slow to get news over there, it was even slower to plan and raid after getting the news.Their ships must not be able to keep up with the speed of these ships today. Even if they can catch up, the artillery equipped on this ship can bombard them before they get close.I don't know what to think in my head, it's a bit like a bow and a snake.
When they set off, carrying Qianlong on their backs, Lin Yutong said to the fourth master: "This is frightening."
yes!Just terrified.
Now living here, during the break, Lingfei and others came to see Qianlong more than once, but Qianlong just didn't see him.Except for Fu Heng and Hong Zhou, even the officials were missing.According to the outside world, the queen mother passed away suddenly, and the emperor was so sad that he was not in the mood to deal with it.Then I received a wave of praise for filial piety.It went back and forth like this along the way, and then Qianlong was "sorrowful" all the way, and it was safe and sound all the way.
The people who greeted the driver had already arrived at the pier, and there was a lot of white flowers.They all wear filial piety.
In the entire Qing Dynasty, only Fourth Master and Lin Yutong didn't have to mourn for it.It was still the first month when I went, and it was already the end of March when I came back, and it was almost clear.It was originally a good spring season, but now the court is busy with funerals.
Lin Yutong and fourth master Qingche Jianxing went straight back to the academy.Along the way, Qianlong didn't relax at all, so he didn't realize that Honghui was never there.
Hong Zhou and Fu Heng came in and out of this boat, of course they knew that one person was missing, a very important person was missing, but no one reminded Qianlong.
But at the moment, Honghui is over there, wandering around with Cai Xin in the shipbuilding department.Cai Xin has been rooted here in the past few years, and he knows every link of shipbuilding very well.Honghui followed and watched all the way, and stayed in the shipping department for more than half a month.
He went south very low-key, no one was alarmed, and he directly lived in Cai Xin's house.
Cai Xin was also very happy, he really liked this young man from the bottom of his heart.In letters from the house, his mother, his brother, his son, and his nephew all spoke highly of the boy.There is no need for the family to worry about the big and small things at home, and he will ask someone to take care of them properly.It's not a big deal, but it's because of trivialities that people feel that he really put his mind to his daughter.
My mother said that the child kept himself clean and his surroundings were very clean.These words were probably said by that girl Xi'er, otherwise, with her daughter's temperament, she would never be unable to say these words.To be honest, a lifetime is very long, so it's hard to say what will happen in the future, but the fact that the other party earnestly fulfilled the original promise made him a little moved.
In the evening, Weng and his son-in-law sat facing each other.There is no one else here, so Cai Xin boldly asked, "Master Baylor... what is your next move?"
As soon as these words came out, Qingxi listened with pricked ears. He didn't have the guts to ask such words.
Honghui didn't seem to notice Qingxi's strangeness, he just looked at Cai Xin with a smile, "What do father-in-law think?"
Cai Xin stroked his mustache, "I couldn't do whatever I wanted before, but now I can do whatever I want."
"Oh?" Honghui respectfully poured a cup of tea and handed it over, "I would like to hear more about it!"
Cai Xin said in a low voice, "In recent days, Lord Baylor has been taking people around the city at night. In your opinion, how is the coastal city today?"
Hong Hui nodded, "Okay! They are all people who have won the benefits of shipping business."
"That's right! Five out of ten people started their businesses because of this, and [-]% to [-]% of the people benefited from it indirectly. These new towns are engaged in maritime trade, and many people's industries are located here. Even the local government has divided the activity areas of foreigners in various places according to local conditions. They live in a concentrated place, which is easy to manage. Minimize their influence on the education of the surrounding people as much as possible. Many problems that the imperial court is worried about are not without solutions. But Today’s Lord Long Live is not a person who likes trouble. I heard that he tried to send the family members of foreigners out of the Qing Dynasty because of the many behaviors of foreigners. The family members cannot enter the country for more than two months at a time. In China, no more than three months at a time. But is there such a thing?"
Hongli really thought so.Just because the southern tour was temporarily delayed, and now the queen mother passed away, this matter has to be postponed.
Cai Xin said in a low voice, "If this is the case, the south of the Yangtze River will definitely complain!"
Honghui nodded, there is weaving and trade, which has become a whole chain of interests. Once Hongli does this, it will touch the cake of too many people.
Cai Xin looked at Hong Hui, "Does Master Duan have any ideas about this opportunity?"
As soon as the words came out, Qingxi stopped grabbing the teapot.
Hong Hui looked at Cai Xin, "Father-in-law, you should have seen the clues when you left Beijing. Otherwise, you would not have chosen the Shipping Department alone. You have guarded the Shipping Department all these years. This is a Baoyi guard." You are guarding it for me. You have many chances to return to Beijing and become the master of the Sixth Part, but you give up time and time again, and I know all of these in my heart."
Cai Xin's eyes lit up, "I really plan to..."
"Father-in-law, but you have to think carefully, this is a road that cannot be turned back. If you succeed, you will be fine, if you fail, you will have no way out!"
Cai Xin shook his head, "Not only me, but also the Cai family. Fujian Cai family... If Lord Baylor is willing to use it, the whole Cai family, only Lord Baylor will follow."
Hong Hui just laughed, "Father-in-law, the Cai family is big, but there are only a few thousand members of the Cai family. These people are not enough..."
"The Cai family is full of family history, and the in-laws are even more..."
Hong Hui still shook his head, "Not enough! Not enough!"
Cai Xin frowned, and just as he was about to speak, he saw the young man who was looking at the servant from the side of Lord Baylor.
What's wrong with this guy?
Qingxi was a little flustered by the look, "Master, what are you looking at?"
Honghui called Qingxi to come to him, "The next thing is up to you to do."
"Me?" Qingxi was puzzled, "What can I do for you?"
"You and the people behind you are best at bewitching people." He looked at the young man years ago, "And I want you to not only bewitch people, but also guide people, understand?"
Qingxi looked at Honghui, "Master Baylor—you—know?"
"Qing'an!" Honghui called his name again, "Qingxi is your brother, you are Qing'an. From then on, you will be Qing'an. Your brother has been detained, right? I, but I didn’t disclose my news to the other party. And the other party kept your brother and never gave him freedom. Qing’an, I should thank you. Because of you, they have not placed anyone beside me these years. It’s also because of you that my side is kept airtight. You do your best to be my image, and at the same time deal with the other’s errands in the cracks, so that your brother’s life is a little bit better. It can be said that between me and your brother You spend more time on my side."
The cautious look on Qing'an's face receded in such an instant, he stood up straight, and his face was a little moved, "So the little master knows it all. When did you know it? "
"I knew it from the first time I saw you." Hong Hui smiled, "Don't underestimate the Women's Army, they are not idle people. They have already become suspicious when they met that troupe that day. Someone is watching. You protect me for a while, and let me tell you the truth, you can rest assured that there are people around him to protect and teach him, and his current studies are more than enough for the college entrance examination next year."
Qing'an knelt on one knee, "Master..."
"Since you call me master, you and I will live and die together!" Hong Hui waved him to get up, "Come here with your ear, I have something to tell you."
Qing'an got up and leaned over.Hong Hui gave some instructions in a low voice, Qing'an's eyes flashed, he sometimes frowned, sometimes surprised, finally he straightened up, and respectfully saluted Hong Hui, "Master, then I'll go now. Waiting for your letter ..."
When they left, Cai Xin didn't even know what kind of riddle he was playing.But he didn't ask anything, just said, "What do I need to do, just ask people to pass on the message. This is not a question of ambition or not, but a question of the future direction of the Qing Dynasty. If the national policy of the imperial court violates the interests of too many people , then this national policy must not be good. If you don’t move at this time, you will miss the opportunity in vain.”
Weng and his son-in-law talked deeply all night, and they got up the next day to leave.Take Hongchen and Hailancha to continue on their way.There are not many opportunities to come out, and he has to take a deeper look.Coupled with the fact that there are branches of the Royal Chamber of Commerce and the Royal Bank everywhere, the journey is not difficult.
Honghui traveled along the coast, from Guangdong to Fujian, then to Zhejiang, Jiangsu, and then to Shandong. After passing through Zhili, he went directly to Fengtian, and then returned to Zhili from Fengtian. When he returned to the capital, it was already autumn up.
In only half a year, Honghui has grown a lot taller.It's just that he has been on the road for half a year, the wind blows his daily life, and he is thin and dark. When he stood in front of Lin Yutong, Lin Yutong was in a daze.Hong Hui went over to hug his mother, "From now on, my son will take her with him everywhere, and he won't leave her for so long."
Lin Yutong kept nodding, and took the child's hand and rubbed it back and forth without listening, "Quickly ask you, Ama, to take a look, he misses you too. Erniang will cook something delicious for you."
Just after Hong Hui was sent in, Cai Baoyi hurried over there.After running in, I felt reckless.It's embarrassing to get up.
Lin Yutong smiled, knowing that she was anxious to see Honghui, so he gave her the teapot, "Send it in."
When he went in, his face was a little red, and when he came out, his face was even redder. He moved to Lin Yutong's side, "I'll fight with you."
They said they were helping, but they wanted to learn how to cook Honghui's favorite dishes and desserts.Lin Yutong breathed a sigh of relief, she felt lucky to have a girl who was willing to give Honghui her heart.One is willing to teach and the other is willing to learn, life is pleasant.
Fourth Master and Honghui talked about the situation in the past six months.In the past six months, the court seemed to be stable, but in fact there was a constant undercurrent. Honghui could get some letters along the way, but the letters were not detailed.As if borrowing the Empress Dowager's funeral, Qianlong opened his mouth and embezzled part of the money that the firm should have given to the Secretary of Highways.No one knows whether this part of the cost will eventually fall into the funeral.But at the beginning of this matter, the following opinions were very big.
To be honest, the matter of money is a trivial matter, and Hongli has no shortage of money.He was just probing, probing whether the Highway Secretary took him seriously as an emperor.Rather than testing the Secretary of the Highway Department, it is better to say that he is testing the hearts of these people in Xinxue, how much authority he has as an emperor.
It can be said that the betrayal he encountered this time completely shattered the arrogant self-confidence in his heart.From the original suspicion, it became suspicion amidst lack of confidence.
Suspicion and suspicion are two different things.
The emperor is not suspicious, but it is too much to be suspicious of everyone.The result of suspicion is that he will really turn these suspicions into actions to verify the rational or unreasonable thoughts in his heart, which is not just a description of hate.
People say that there is no doubt about employing people, but there is no need for doubting people.Even suspicious people have to have a bottom line.But this suspicion has no bottom line.Suspicion is more of conjecture!To be honest, Hongli was scared out of it.
In fact, in the past six months, this suspicion was not only directed at the Secretary of the Highway Department, but even Hong Zhou and Fu Heng were also targeted.
It was said that during the funeral of the Empress Dowager, Fu Heng's wife Guerjia was supposed to go to mourn.But because of the previous rumors, Fu Heng and his wife heard about it later. Guarjia felt that Gua Tianli was under the sun, so he took maternity leave.This is also very common.In fact, Guarjas was indeed pregnant.I didn't notice it before the southern tour, and I went to the funeral when I came back, and I was already three months pregnant.As for Concubine Ling, after hearing about this, do you express your virtuousness?Just ask if you want to send some rewards, after all, the Fucha family is different from other families.Who knew that Qianlong would frown upon hearing this, and once the emperor and ministers drank a few glasses of wine, and Hong Zhou and the other two ministers were present, what did Qianlong say?Qianlong said that during the Chinese New Year, the Guerjia family did not enter the palace to congratulate.
At that time, Hong Zhou was stupid!What does this mean?The child in Mrs. Fu Heng's womb must have been conceived during the first lunar month.At that time, if you didn't enter the palace, you just told Fu Heng that the child was definitely yours and had nothing to do with the palace.
However, the words do not say so.At that time, it was just a rumor, just laugh it off.There's nothing wrong with this remark, it's fine to interrupt it by saying a few stupid words while drunk.But you said that on purpose, with some meaning of explanation, so what does this represent?It means that you have kept those rumors in your heart and never let go.If you really think those rumors are important, it means that you are very concerned about Fu Heng's attitude towards this matter.
After all, you are uneasy!
Hong Zhou felt that this was too embarrassing.So he lay down on the table, and the snoring started.drunk!Drunk to death!Completely drunk, it has nothing to do with me!
He used this move often, since he was a child.But after using it this time, Hongzhou went back to the mansion, and the imperial physician sent by the emperor arrived.This is a direct blow to Hong Zhou's trick of pretending to be drunk.But if this is the case, Hong Zhou didn't care too much, thinking that maybe his fourth brother is in a bad mood again, and he doesn't want to play this kind of trick with him, so that others can scare him.
But who knew that later it was discovered that Fu Heng could no longer enter and leave the Armory Factory so freely.Because my fourth brother had a brain twitch and wanted to redo the security plan of the armory by himself, and Hongluo was responsible for these things.After Hongluo took charge of this area, not only was it inconvenient for Fu Heng to go in and out, but he had to go in and out like everyone else, and he couldn't be searched all over for all kinds of surveillance.
Hong Zhou Neng died of injustice and went to find him, Ama.His Ama said that a good system should be governed by others.
This is not a good thing, if the fourth brother thinks about the good of the Armory Factory, he is willing to screw his head off, "He is just afraid!" Hong Zhou's voice was low, "I am afraid that the firearms will be scattered accidentally. Well, someone rebelled against him! He is now a soldier of grass and trees. You don’t know yet, the fourth brother is in the palace, and he has never summoned a concubine so far.”
When Huang Ama passed away, the fourth elder brother only kept his filial piety for 27 days.
It doesn't make sense to know that the real queen mother is still alive, and when it's a fake funeral, he can't bear not to get close to women.But this time I held back.
Fourth Master also frowned when talking to Hong Hui, "It's been half a year, and his bedroom is completely sealed, except for Wu Shulai, no one else has ever entered it."
Hong Hui sneered, "I'm afraid it's not just the wary of Hong Zhou, but also here. When my son came in, the number of people stationed is more than twice that of the original."
yes!After he came back, he had time to calm down, and Hongli thought about the matter before and after, and he must have doubts.Twelve shots, just want to vent your anger?
impossible!But why?Who can call twelve shots?
In his opinion, there is no one else but him, Ama.On the way, I still believed in Ama very much, but before the funeral was over, I came back to it.
He didn't question Twelve, but sent someone to guard him closely.It's not that I don't want to deal with Twelve, it's because there are so many things this year, and I don't want to deal with them on the cusp of the storm.Besides, no matter how much you punish him, you can't kill him!At most, it's still circled, which is why it makes people feel aggrieved.
But at this moment, something happened that completely stimulated Qianlong's sensitive nerves.
What's the matter?
A Dutch businessman named Lorien, his wife Jenny, and their two lively and lovely daughters went straight to the capital.
On this day, people in the capital suddenly discovered that a woman with blond hair and blue eyes appeared on the street.
Yes!Such a man is not new in the capital, but such a mother and daughter are too conspicuous.What's more terrible is that these three people are wearing revealing clothes, with their necks and chests exposed, all white.Western women are different from Eastern women in that they are willing to expose their half-breasted breasts. Everyone is not surprised, but such a scene on the streets of the capital is enough to cause a shocking effect.In the words of the common people watching the excitement, even the most dissolute sisters in the kiln can't compare with these foreign women.
Assuming that this matter was known to Xuncheng Yushi, he reported it to the court the next morning.
What made Qianlong furious was not only those indecent women, but also why foreigners came to the capital like this and never reported it before.
As a result, after investigation, it was found that the Dutchman's ship had something wrong and deviated from the channel.Instead of going to Guangzhou, I went to Fengtian instead.The merchant ship stayed in Fengtian for repairs, and Luo Lian came to the capital with his wife and children.They have been doing business in Guangzhou before.The Great Clearance cleared the boundaries of Guangzhou, and they never came to other places.So he took people with him, hired a local guide, and drove all the way into the capital in a carriage.
Qianlong was so angry that the door of the Qing Dynasty entered whenever he wanted, and came out as soon as he wanted?Today a foreigner came with his wife and children in a carriage.What about tomorrow?Do these foreigners have to break in directly with strong boats and guns?
The reason why the port was established is to manage these foreigners in a unified manner.But now?Freedom to come and go is like entering no one's land.How did you manage it?How many such loopholes are there in the coast of the Qing Dynasty?
no!Absolutely not!
Qianlong's original words were like this, "Check! Let me check clearly and in detail, how many of them are privately established ports below. If you can't find out, then simply ban the sea. The Qing Dynasty has a vast land and abundant resources, and we Yes. We still have what others don’t have. Trade with foreigners is not necessary.”
hehe!That's what it says.You are the emperor, don't care how the people live, your life is the same.
But are merchants and ordinary people who rely on trade happy?
Of course, this word spread, and people panicked for a while.
And Luo Lian's family was also detained and imprisoned. It was rumored that they were going to be beheaded.
This decapitation, how can foreigners not be afraid.
Dongxi's brain is getting bigger. The business that was negotiated before, but now the other party is holding a wait-and-see attitude.He hesitated over there, whether he wanted or not the goods he ordered from the factory before.It's hard to say about this order, and he can't say whether he can still order the goods from the factory in the future.If the factory’s goods cannot be shipped, the workers’ salaries cannot be paid.Ordinary people are waiting for money to buy rice to live a good life.How can you say that people's hearts are not chaotic.
In a state of confusion, as soon as winter comes, the booklets fly to the capital like pieces of paper.Strikes and market strikes occurred one after another in various places, and many people spontaneously rushed to the capital along the way, wanting to go to Beijing to petition the emperor, asking the emperor to listen to the sufferings of the people.
This news was not only reflected in the government's booklets, but also received corresponding feedback from the garrisons in various places.
Qianlong frowned, "With no one behind the scenes, how could things develop so quickly?"
impossible!
Wu Shulai rubbed the ink on the side, "Long Live Lord, if people flock to the capital, then anything can happen. The capital is only a small place, and there is not enough food and drink for so many people. If there is insufficient support, there will be chaos .If there is trouble in the capital, it will be broken."
To kill or not to kill!
Qianlong gave orders to the garrison along the road, if any abnormalities were found, they would be killed.
But even if unarmed common people go to the capital without stealing or robbing along the way, this can't be called a change.Don't the common people have the right to go to the capital?
Therefore, killing cannot be killed.
But if they really enter the capital like this, there are so many people without food and drink, how can there be no trouble.At that time, if someone kills someone... I'm afraid there will be chaos in the south!
"Block!" Qianlong ordered that all intersections leading to the capital be heavily guarded and no one should be allowed to approach the capital.
But this is not a problem!People crowded outside the city, and the people outside the city suffered accordingly.The hearts of the people who were originally stable will become chaotic along with these people who went to Beijing to petition.
The academy is outside the city, so the twice as many troops sent before are useful.Set aside half to guard the medical center.Especially the women's hospital, don't ask people to run into you.
As the influx of people increased day by day, Qianlong couldn't sleep at all.Fu Heng arrived at the palace, "Long live, if this goes on like this, we will have to open warehouses to get food. Once the food is used up, if these petitioning people make trouble again, we will not even have the last reserves."
The capital is really self-defeating.
But if the food is not given, there will be trouble immediately.
There are too many people, so they are not allowed to enter the city.But the weather is getting colder day by day, and the night is very cold, plus it rained twice, many people don't even have a place to hide from the rain. If they can't eat well, sleep well, and sleep in the open, how can they not fall ill?
San Yazi squeezed out of the crowd and ran to the surrounding villages. The people around did not dare to open their doors, and the doors of every house were closed tightly.As soon as someone knocked on the door, he took a knife and ax to deal with it carefully inside.
Sanyazi just wanted a bowl of hot water, because Uncle San was sick and lay on the muddy floor with a persistent high fever.He entrusted his third uncle to a fellow villager and came over to ask for a bowl of hot water.
The family first asked carefully, and then removed the threshold from below, and a bowl of hot water was handed out from the threshold.The people inside were vicious, but Sanyazi knew that they were also afraid.
He wanted to say, I am actually a good person, and I have never done a bad thing.I was born stupid and couldn't learn anything, but at least I relied on some coolies, did some transportation work, and could support my mother at home.Later, because of his good work, the factory was willing to ask him to do the work as long as there was work, and he could earn one or two taels of silver a month.These silver coins can live a small life.But who knew, the imperial court stopped doing business with foreigners and wanted to kill the heads of foreigners, so the factory couldn't go on, and I didn't have a job at that time.Not only myself, but most of the people in the whole city seemed to be at ease.
It is better to have no source of income and save money.A family with a large number of children and a large population earns a month's worth of money in the current month.It was a good day, but the above sentence will not be able to live.How can there be such a reason?
I still have a few taels of silver at home, but my mother is ill.If you don't last for two months, you have to stop.He entrusted his mother to his aunt, and came with his third uncle, so he wanted to beg the emperor to give everyone a way to survive.
But who knew that when they arrived at the place, the emperor disappeared, and everyone was stopped outside. There was no food, no drink, no shelter.There is nothing to ask for.All the dry food that everyone brought was eaten up on the way, and they brought some small silver, which was to pay for going back.I spent some time here these days.To be honest, if things go on like this, everyone will not have enough money to return home.Is this going to beg for food all the way back?
But is begging sure to make it home alive?When I got home, my house was broken. Where can I find a way?
Maybe if you stay, there will always be a way out if you stay.
Someone kept cheering everyone up in the crowd, saying that the imperial court would definitely not let everyone gather here.Even if you don't want to care about their lives, don't you want the lives of the people in the city?Now the capital is like a besieged city, unable to get in or get out, can so many people not be in a hurry?
So Sanyazi stayed, and he also believed in the previous rumors that Baixin was a good emperor who loved the people like his own son.The prince's reputation is so good, how could he ignore the people.
Unexpectedly, it lasted for a few days and there were two consecutive autumn rains. To be honest, he had never experienced such pain in the past few years.The third uncle fell ill, and the previous emotions of the villagers began to spread.When he came back with water, there was a lot of abuse all the way.
Cursing and scolding are all scolding the emperor.
It is said that the emperor is hypocritically benevolent, but in fact he is a foolish emperor.
He squeezed over, thinking that it was impossible, he really had to risk his life to find a doctor to prescribe medicine for the third uncle.
Just as he was talking, there was a commotion in the distance, saying that Huimin had set up a porridge shed to tell everyone not to mess up and panic, and they would definitely not watch everyone starve to death.Immediately afterwards, people in the medical center continued to boil soup and hot water every day, and divided them into several places.
San Yazi brought hot porridge and soup, and tears fell.He remembered what the aunt who gave him the medicine said, "Don't thank me, thank you old lady. The old lady is merciful. Without the old lady, there would be no Huimin Department, and there would be no medical center."
Yes!Yes!
The third child fed the porridge and medicine to the third uncle, and saw that the third uncle fell asleep, and the fever subsided after a while.The big stone in his heart loosened in an instant, and then he burst into tears, "Thank you for your kindness! Thank you for your kindness."
The emotions were instantly contagious, some people sobbed, and some people said: "The old lady is a good lady, why don't you care about an emperor's son."
"What do you know? The emperor was not born to the old lady."
"The emperor was not born by the old lady, but by the old sage. The old lady can't control the emperor, so can the old sage not control the emperor?"
As soon as the words came out, the people around were stunned: Yes!If you can't find the emperor, you can find the old emperor.
Who is not like this?When the son caused trouble, the first person to look for was the son's father.Is it wrong to call a father to discipline his son?
Someone shouted again: "The old sage is in the academy, and the academy is just outside the city."
Yes!We will not enter the city unless we are allowed to enter the city. We will go to the old sage.
After one word was passed around, the crowd rushed towards the academy.
It's still far away, but Dehai has already sent the news to Fourth Master's desk, "It looks like a mess, but someone is actually guiding it."
There were no troubles along the way, no robbery, no beating, no smashing, no criminal offenses, and even trampling on the bankers rarely happened, it was not organized by someone to hell.
Lin Yutong frowned, "Who arranged for the porridge and medicine at the Huimin Office and the medical center?" She didn't give such an order!
De Hai said in a low voice: "Princess Hewan asked the two big princesses to arrange it. As for the application of medicine...it was arranged by Miss Cai."
He Wan and Cai Baoyi!
Fourth Master nodded and waved to De Hai, "Go do your work."
As soon as De Hai left, Lin Yutong frowned and looked at Fourth Master: "What the hell is Honghui doing?"
"Er Niang!" Hong Hui lifted the curtain, "There is no cure for chaos!"
Lin Yutong looked at him, you are going up now, are you a little too impatient.
Honghui smiled, and looked at Ahma, "You and Ahma hid on the Zhuangzi, and have never been able to step into the Forbidden City! Why? That's where you and Ahma's home is. The son just wanted to ask the courtiers to ask for it." Call the people of the world to carry you and Ama into the Forbidden City openly!"
Thus, the southern tour ended in an anticlimactic manner.
When I went back, except for the fifth elder brother, the other emperor elder brothers were basically healed, only the fifth elder brother couldn't get out of bed for the time being.Qianlong originally wanted to keep the fifth elder brother, but Concubine Yu was unwilling to live or die. It was a joke, it was the safest to follow the empress dowager.It would be safer if the imperial physician stayed around without following the empress dowager's boat.
Today's boat is very stable and does not hinder recovery.
Concubine Yu insisted, and did not hesitate to rush to Lin Yutong's side and kneel down, Lin Yutong sent a message to Qianlong, asking to move the fifth elder brother to this side of the boat for easy care.
But it was not only the fifth elder brother who came, but also Qianlong.Followed by a string of people, all the beds were moved when they came.
"The son should live with Huang Ama and Huang'eriang, so that he can feel at ease." Qianlong said so.
The recent incident made Qianlong feel uneasy, he could find Twelfth Uncle's dead men by his side, so who else could tell?In the past few days, he has to have someone he trusts by his side to be safe.
Wu Shulai and Fu Heng came in rotation.Wu Shulai is nothing more than a slave, but Fu Heng has a special position, and he has to deal with many things.Now I can't rest here at night, and I'm busy all day during the day, and I can't bear the iron.Fu Heng, who was a little fat and slightly fat, was getting thinner and thinner day by day.It's also good that Hong Zhou can change shifts, but Hong Zhou has a big heart, saying that Brother Huang, you can sleep at ease, and I will guard you.But in fact, before Qianlong fell asleep, Hongzhou's snoring was loud.After waking him up, he even pretended to protect his brother, and slept with him on the dragon bed, and said that he was in the bed.But good guy, kicking arms and stretching legs, it feels more terrifying than being an assassin directly.
Completely unable to stay!
He came here during the day yesterday to discuss the return journey with Huang Ama, but who knows when Huang Ama went to wash up, he fell asleep directly on the couch.I fell asleep this time, from sleeping in the morning to holding the lamp for ten minutes.If it wasn't for being hungry, I would have to go to bed.These days, this is the most solid sleep he has had.
The boats here are relatively empty, and there are plenty of places.He came over directly, and arranged Yongqi a little far away, and he took the place closest to his Ama.
The fourth master was so annoying, "Go back, it's okay, I'll show you. No one would dare to do anything to you without me. Even if your twelfth uncle had the guts of a bear, he wouldn't dare to point the finger at you." you."
Lord Qianlong is not so optimistic, "Uncle Twelve has concerns, but there are still people who don't. There is no shortage of rebels in Jiangnan. Now that there are rumors outside, these people just take advantage of it. Their news is lagging behind and they haven't responded yet. Come here. When the reaction comes, the return journey may not be smooth."
So, you live here?
Lin Yutong rolled her eyes in her heart.Really unfilial son!Knowing that those people may be dealing with you, you still live next to your ama, but you are really not afraid of hurting your old arms and legs.I really thought that you, Ama, were Zhenshan Taisui, and all the ghosts and ghosts would automatically disperse when you get there.
Fourth master really rolled his eyes, and left a sentence, "Live here if you want."
Not to mention that it was slow to get news over there, it was even slower to plan and raid after getting the news.Their ships must not be able to keep up with the speed of these ships today. Even if they can catch up, the artillery equipped on this ship can bombard them before they get close.I don't know what to think in my head, it's a bit like a bow and a snake.
When they set off, carrying Qianlong on their backs, Lin Yutong said to the fourth master: "This is frightening."
yes!Just terrified.
Now living here, during the break, Lingfei and others came to see Qianlong more than once, but Qianlong just didn't see him.Except for Fu Heng and Hong Zhou, even the officials were missing.According to the outside world, the queen mother passed away suddenly, and the emperor was so sad that he was not in the mood to deal with it.Then I received a wave of praise for filial piety.It went back and forth like this along the way, and then Qianlong was "sorrowful" all the way, and it was safe and sound all the way.
The people who greeted the driver had already arrived at the pier, and there was a lot of white flowers.They all wear filial piety.
In the entire Qing Dynasty, only Fourth Master and Lin Yutong didn't have to mourn for it.It was still the first month when I went, and it was already the end of March when I came back, and it was almost clear.It was originally a good spring season, but now the court is busy with funerals.
Lin Yutong and fourth master Qingche Jianxing went straight back to the academy.Along the way, Qianlong didn't relax at all, so he didn't realize that Honghui was never there.
Hong Zhou and Fu Heng came in and out of this boat, of course they knew that one person was missing, a very important person was missing, but no one reminded Qianlong.
But at the moment, Honghui is over there, wandering around with Cai Xin in the shipbuilding department.Cai Xin has been rooted here in the past few years, and he knows every link of shipbuilding very well.Honghui followed and watched all the way, and stayed in the shipping department for more than half a month.
He went south very low-key, no one was alarmed, and he directly lived in Cai Xin's house.
Cai Xin was also very happy, he really liked this young man from the bottom of his heart.In letters from the house, his mother, his brother, his son, and his nephew all spoke highly of the boy.There is no need for the family to worry about the big and small things at home, and he will ask someone to take care of them properly.It's not a big deal, but it's because of trivialities that people feel that he really put his mind to his daughter.
My mother said that the child kept himself clean and his surroundings were very clean.These words were probably said by that girl Xi'er, otherwise, with her daughter's temperament, she would never be unable to say these words.To be honest, a lifetime is very long, so it's hard to say what will happen in the future, but the fact that the other party earnestly fulfilled the original promise made him a little moved.
In the evening, Weng and his son-in-law sat facing each other.There is no one else here, so Cai Xin boldly asked, "Master Baylor... what is your next move?"
As soon as these words came out, Qingxi listened with pricked ears. He didn't have the guts to ask such words.
Honghui didn't seem to notice Qingxi's strangeness, he just looked at Cai Xin with a smile, "What do father-in-law think?"
Cai Xin stroked his mustache, "I couldn't do whatever I wanted before, but now I can do whatever I want."
"Oh?" Honghui respectfully poured a cup of tea and handed it over, "I would like to hear more about it!"
Cai Xin said in a low voice, "In recent days, Lord Baylor has been taking people around the city at night. In your opinion, how is the coastal city today?"
Hong Hui nodded, "Okay! They are all people who have won the benefits of shipping business."
"That's right! Five out of ten people started their businesses because of this, and [-]% to [-]% of the people benefited from it indirectly. These new towns are engaged in maritime trade, and many people's industries are located here. Even the local government has divided the activity areas of foreigners in various places according to local conditions. They live in a concentrated place, which is easy to manage. Minimize their influence on the education of the surrounding people as much as possible. Many problems that the imperial court is worried about are not without solutions. But Today’s Lord Long Live is not a person who likes trouble. I heard that he tried to send the family members of foreigners out of the Qing Dynasty because of the many behaviors of foreigners. The family members cannot enter the country for more than two months at a time. In China, no more than three months at a time. But is there such a thing?"
Hongli really thought so.Just because the southern tour was temporarily delayed, and now the queen mother passed away, this matter has to be postponed.
Cai Xin said in a low voice, "If this is the case, the south of the Yangtze River will definitely complain!"
Honghui nodded, there is weaving and trade, which has become a whole chain of interests. Once Hongli does this, it will touch the cake of too many people.
Cai Xin looked at Hong Hui, "Does Master Duan have any ideas about this opportunity?"
As soon as the words came out, Qingxi stopped grabbing the teapot.
Hong Hui looked at Cai Xin, "Father-in-law, you should have seen the clues when you left Beijing. Otherwise, you would not have chosen the Shipping Department alone. You have guarded the Shipping Department all these years. This is a Baoyi guard." You are guarding it for me. You have many chances to return to Beijing and become the master of the Sixth Part, but you give up time and time again, and I know all of these in my heart."
Cai Xin's eyes lit up, "I really plan to..."
"Father-in-law, but you have to think carefully, this is a road that cannot be turned back. If you succeed, you will be fine, if you fail, you will have no way out!"
Cai Xin shook his head, "Not only me, but also the Cai family. Fujian Cai family... If Lord Baylor is willing to use it, the whole Cai family, only Lord Baylor will follow."
Hong Hui just laughed, "Father-in-law, the Cai family is big, but there are only a few thousand members of the Cai family. These people are not enough..."
"The Cai family is full of family history, and the in-laws are even more..."
Hong Hui still shook his head, "Not enough! Not enough!"
Cai Xin frowned, and just as he was about to speak, he saw the young man who was looking at the servant from the side of Lord Baylor.
What's wrong with this guy?
Qingxi was a little flustered by the look, "Master, what are you looking at?"
Honghui called Qingxi to come to him, "The next thing is up to you to do."
"Me?" Qingxi was puzzled, "What can I do for you?"
"You and the people behind you are best at bewitching people." He looked at the young man years ago, "And I want you to not only bewitch people, but also guide people, understand?"
Qingxi looked at Honghui, "Master Baylor—you—know?"
"Qing'an!" Honghui called his name again, "Qingxi is your brother, you are Qing'an. From then on, you will be Qing'an. Your brother has been detained, right? I, but I didn’t disclose my news to the other party. And the other party kept your brother and never gave him freedom. Qing’an, I should thank you. Because of you, they have not placed anyone beside me these years. It’s also because of you that my side is kept airtight. You do your best to be my image, and at the same time deal with the other’s errands in the cracks, so that your brother’s life is a little bit better. It can be said that between me and your brother You spend more time on my side."
The cautious look on Qing'an's face receded in such an instant, he stood up straight, and his face was a little moved, "So the little master knows it all. When did you know it? "
"I knew it from the first time I saw you." Hong Hui smiled, "Don't underestimate the Women's Army, they are not idle people. They have already become suspicious when they met that troupe that day. Someone is watching. You protect me for a while, and let me tell you the truth, you can rest assured that there are people around him to protect and teach him, and his current studies are more than enough for the college entrance examination next year."
Qing'an knelt on one knee, "Master..."
"Since you call me master, you and I will live and die together!" Hong Hui waved him to get up, "Come here with your ear, I have something to tell you."
Qing'an got up and leaned over.Hong Hui gave some instructions in a low voice, Qing'an's eyes flashed, he sometimes frowned, sometimes surprised, finally he straightened up, and respectfully saluted Hong Hui, "Master, then I'll go now. Waiting for your letter ..."
When they left, Cai Xin didn't even know what kind of riddle he was playing.But he didn't ask anything, just said, "What do I need to do, just ask people to pass on the message. This is not a question of ambition or not, but a question of the future direction of the Qing Dynasty. If the national policy of the imperial court violates the interests of too many people , then this national policy must not be good. If you don’t move at this time, you will miss the opportunity in vain.”
Weng and his son-in-law talked deeply all night, and they got up the next day to leave.Take Hongchen and Hailancha to continue on their way.There are not many opportunities to come out, and he has to take a deeper look.Coupled with the fact that there are branches of the Royal Chamber of Commerce and the Royal Bank everywhere, the journey is not difficult.
Honghui traveled along the coast, from Guangdong to Fujian, then to Zhejiang, Jiangsu, and then to Shandong. After passing through Zhili, he went directly to Fengtian, and then returned to Zhili from Fengtian. When he returned to the capital, it was already autumn up.
In only half a year, Honghui has grown a lot taller.It's just that he has been on the road for half a year, the wind blows his daily life, and he is thin and dark. When he stood in front of Lin Yutong, Lin Yutong was in a daze.Hong Hui went over to hug his mother, "From now on, my son will take her with him everywhere, and he won't leave her for so long."
Lin Yutong kept nodding, and took the child's hand and rubbed it back and forth without listening, "Quickly ask you, Ama, to take a look, he misses you too. Erniang will cook something delicious for you."
Just after Hong Hui was sent in, Cai Baoyi hurried over there.After running in, I felt reckless.It's embarrassing to get up.
Lin Yutong smiled, knowing that she was anxious to see Honghui, so he gave her the teapot, "Send it in."
When he went in, his face was a little red, and when he came out, his face was even redder. He moved to Lin Yutong's side, "I'll fight with you."
They said they were helping, but they wanted to learn how to cook Honghui's favorite dishes and desserts.Lin Yutong breathed a sigh of relief, she felt lucky to have a girl who was willing to give Honghui her heart.One is willing to teach and the other is willing to learn, life is pleasant.
Fourth Master and Honghui talked about the situation in the past six months.In the past six months, the court seemed to be stable, but in fact there was a constant undercurrent. Honghui could get some letters along the way, but the letters were not detailed.As if borrowing the Empress Dowager's funeral, Qianlong opened his mouth and embezzled part of the money that the firm should have given to the Secretary of Highways.No one knows whether this part of the cost will eventually fall into the funeral.But at the beginning of this matter, the following opinions were very big.
To be honest, the matter of money is a trivial matter, and Hongli has no shortage of money.He was just probing, probing whether the Highway Secretary took him seriously as an emperor.Rather than testing the Secretary of the Highway Department, it is better to say that he is testing the hearts of these people in Xinxue, how much authority he has as an emperor.
It can be said that the betrayal he encountered this time completely shattered the arrogant self-confidence in his heart.From the original suspicion, it became suspicion amidst lack of confidence.
Suspicion and suspicion are two different things.
The emperor is not suspicious, but it is too much to be suspicious of everyone.The result of suspicion is that he will really turn these suspicions into actions to verify the rational or unreasonable thoughts in his heart, which is not just a description of hate.
People say that there is no doubt about employing people, but there is no need for doubting people.Even suspicious people have to have a bottom line.But this suspicion has no bottom line.Suspicion is more of conjecture!To be honest, Hongli was scared out of it.
In fact, in the past six months, this suspicion was not only directed at the Secretary of the Highway Department, but even Hong Zhou and Fu Heng were also targeted.
It was said that during the funeral of the Empress Dowager, Fu Heng's wife Guerjia was supposed to go to mourn.But because of the previous rumors, Fu Heng and his wife heard about it later. Guarjia felt that Gua Tianli was under the sun, so he took maternity leave.This is also very common.In fact, Guarjas was indeed pregnant.I didn't notice it before the southern tour, and I went to the funeral when I came back, and I was already three months pregnant.As for Concubine Ling, after hearing about this, do you express your virtuousness?Just ask if you want to send some rewards, after all, the Fucha family is different from other families.Who knew that Qianlong would frown upon hearing this, and once the emperor and ministers drank a few glasses of wine, and Hong Zhou and the other two ministers were present, what did Qianlong say?Qianlong said that during the Chinese New Year, the Guerjia family did not enter the palace to congratulate.
At that time, Hong Zhou was stupid!What does this mean?The child in Mrs. Fu Heng's womb must have been conceived during the first lunar month.At that time, if you didn't enter the palace, you just told Fu Heng that the child was definitely yours and had nothing to do with the palace.
However, the words do not say so.At that time, it was just a rumor, just laugh it off.There's nothing wrong with this remark, it's fine to interrupt it by saying a few stupid words while drunk.But you said that on purpose, with some meaning of explanation, so what does this represent?It means that you have kept those rumors in your heart and never let go.If you really think those rumors are important, it means that you are very concerned about Fu Heng's attitude towards this matter.
After all, you are uneasy!
Hong Zhou felt that this was too embarrassing.So he lay down on the table, and the snoring started.drunk!Drunk to death!Completely drunk, it has nothing to do with me!
He used this move often, since he was a child.But after using it this time, Hongzhou went back to the mansion, and the imperial physician sent by the emperor arrived.This is a direct blow to Hong Zhou's trick of pretending to be drunk.But if this is the case, Hong Zhou didn't care too much, thinking that maybe his fourth brother is in a bad mood again, and he doesn't want to play this kind of trick with him, so that others can scare him.
But who knew that later it was discovered that Fu Heng could no longer enter and leave the Armory Factory so freely.Because my fourth brother had a brain twitch and wanted to redo the security plan of the armory by himself, and Hongluo was responsible for these things.After Hongluo took charge of this area, not only was it inconvenient for Fu Heng to go in and out, but he had to go in and out like everyone else, and he couldn't be searched all over for all kinds of surveillance.
Hong Zhou Neng died of injustice and went to find him, Ama.His Ama said that a good system should be governed by others.
This is not a good thing, if the fourth brother thinks about the good of the Armory Factory, he is willing to screw his head off, "He is just afraid!" Hong Zhou's voice was low, "I am afraid that the firearms will be scattered accidentally. Well, someone rebelled against him! He is now a soldier of grass and trees. You don’t know yet, the fourth brother is in the palace, and he has never summoned a concubine so far.”
When Huang Ama passed away, the fourth elder brother only kept his filial piety for 27 days.
It doesn't make sense to know that the real queen mother is still alive, and when it's a fake funeral, he can't bear not to get close to women.But this time I held back.
Fourth Master also frowned when talking to Hong Hui, "It's been half a year, and his bedroom is completely sealed, except for Wu Shulai, no one else has ever entered it."
Hong Hui sneered, "I'm afraid it's not just the wary of Hong Zhou, but also here. When my son came in, the number of people stationed is more than twice that of the original."
yes!After he came back, he had time to calm down, and Hongli thought about the matter before and after, and he must have doubts.Twelve shots, just want to vent your anger?
impossible!But why?Who can call twelve shots?
In his opinion, there is no one else but him, Ama.On the way, I still believed in Ama very much, but before the funeral was over, I came back to it.
He didn't question Twelve, but sent someone to guard him closely.It's not that I don't want to deal with Twelve, it's because there are so many things this year, and I don't want to deal with them on the cusp of the storm.Besides, no matter how much you punish him, you can't kill him!At most, it's still circled, which is why it makes people feel aggrieved.
But at this moment, something happened that completely stimulated Qianlong's sensitive nerves.
What's the matter?
A Dutch businessman named Lorien, his wife Jenny, and their two lively and lovely daughters went straight to the capital.
On this day, people in the capital suddenly discovered that a woman with blond hair and blue eyes appeared on the street.
Yes!Such a man is not new in the capital, but such a mother and daughter are too conspicuous.What's more terrible is that these three people are wearing revealing clothes, with their necks and chests exposed, all white.Western women are different from Eastern women in that they are willing to expose their half-breasted breasts. Everyone is not surprised, but such a scene on the streets of the capital is enough to cause a shocking effect.In the words of the common people watching the excitement, even the most dissolute sisters in the kiln can't compare with these foreign women.
Assuming that this matter was known to Xuncheng Yushi, he reported it to the court the next morning.
What made Qianlong furious was not only those indecent women, but also why foreigners came to the capital like this and never reported it before.
As a result, after investigation, it was found that the Dutchman's ship had something wrong and deviated from the channel.Instead of going to Guangzhou, I went to Fengtian instead.The merchant ship stayed in Fengtian for repairs, and Luo Lian came to the capital with his wife and children.They have been doing business in Guangzhou before.The Great Clearance cleared the boundaries of Guangzhou, and they never came to other places.So he took people with him, hired a local guide, and drove all the way into the capital in a carriage.
Qianlong was so angry that the door of the Qing Dynasty entered whenever he wanted, and came out as soon as he wanted?Today a foreigner came with his wife and children in a carriage.What about tomorrow?Do these foreigners have to break in directly with strong boats and guns?
The reason why the port was established is to manage these foreigners in a unified manner.But now?Freedom to come and go is like entering no one's land.How did you manage it?How many such loopholes are there in the coast of the Qing Dynasty?
no!Absolutely not!
Qianlong's original words were like this, "Check! Let me check clearly and in detail, how many of them are privately established ports below. If you can't find out, then simply ban the sea. The Qing Dynasty has a vast land and abundant resources, and we Yes. We still have what others don’t have. Trade with foreigners is not necessary.”
hehe!That's what it says.You are the emperor, don't care how the people live, your life is the same.
But are merchants and ordinary people who rely on trade happy?
Of course, this word spread, and people panicked for a while.
And Luo Lian's family was also detained and imprisoned. It was rumored that they were going to be beheaded.
This decapitation, how can foreigners not be afraid.
Dongxi's brain is getting bigger. The business that was negotiated before, but now the other party is holding a wait-and-see attitude.He hesitated over there, whether he wanted or not the goods he ordered from the factory before.It's hard to say about this order, and he can't say whether he can still order the goods from the factory in the future.If the factory’s goods cannot be shipped, the workers’ salaries cannot be paid.Ordinary people are waiting for money to buy rice to live a good life.How can you say that people's hearts are not chaotic.
In a state of confusion, as soon as winter comes, the booklets fly to the capital like pieces of paper.Strikes and market strikes occurred one after another in various places, and many people spontaneously rushed to the capital along the way, wanting to go to Beijing to petition the emperor, asking the emperor to listen to the sufferings of the people.
This news was not only reflected in the government's booklets, but also received corresponding feedback from the garrisons in various places.
Qianlong frowned, "With no one behind the scenes, how could things develop so quickly?"
impossible!
Wu Shulai rubbed the ink on the side, "Long Live Lord, if people flock to the capital, then anything can happen. The capital is only a small place, and there is not enough food and drink for so many people. If there is insufficient support, there will be chaos .If there is trouble in the capital, it will be broken."
To kill or not to kill!
Qianlong gave orders to the garrison along the road, if any abnormalities were found, they would be killed.
But even if unarmed common people go to the capital without stealing or robbing along the way, this can't be called a change.Don't the common people have the right to go to the capital?
Therefore, killing cannot be killed.
But if they really enter the capital like this, there are so many people without food and drink, how can there be no trouble.At that time, if someone kills someone... I'm afraid there will be chaos in the south!
"Block!" Qianlong ordered that all intersections leading to the capital be heavily guarded and no one should be allowed to approach the capital.
But this is not a problem!People crowded outside the city, and the people outside the city suffered accordingly.The hearts of the people who were originally stable will become chaotic along with these people who went to Beijing to petition.
The academy is outside the city, so the twice as many troops sent before are useful.Set aside half to guard the medical center.Especially the women's hospital, don't ask people to run into you.
As the influx of people increased day by day, Qianlong couldn't sleep at all.Fu Heng arrived at the palace, "Long live, if this goes on like this, we will have to open warehouses to get food. Once the food is used up, if these petitioning people make trouble again, we will not even have the last reserves."
The capital is really self-defeating.
But if the food is not given, there will be trouble immediately.
There are too many people, so they are not allowed to enter the city.But the weather is getting colder day by day, and the night is very cold, plus it rained twice, many people don't even have a place to hide from the rain. If they can't eat well, sleep well, and sleep in the open, how can they not fall ill?
San Yazi squeezed out of the crowd and ran to the surrounding villages. The people around did not dare to open their doors, and the doors of every house were closed tightly.As soon as someone knocked on the door, he took a knife and ax to deal with it carefully inside.
Sanyazi just wanted a bowl of hot water, because Uncle San was sick and lay on the muddy floor with a persistent high fever.He entrusted his third uncle to a fellow villager and came over to ask for a bowl of hot water.
The family first asked carefully, and then removed the threshold from below, and a bowl of hot water was handed out from the threshold.The people inside were vicious, but Sanyazi knew that they were also afraid.
He wanted to say, I am actually a good person, and I have never done a bad thing.I was born stupid and couldn't learn anything, but at least I relied on some coolies, did some transportation work, and could support my mother at home.Later, because of his good work, the factory was willing to ask him to do the work as long as there was work, and he could earn one or two taels of silver a month.These silver coins can live a small life.But who knew, the imperial court stopped doing business with foreigners and wanted to kill the heads of foreigners, so the factory couldn't go on, and I didn't have a job at that time.Not only myself, but most of the people in the whole city seemed to be at ease.
It is better to have no source of income and save money.A family with a large number of children and a large population earns a month's worth of money in the current month.It was a good day, but the above sentence will not be able to live.How can there be such a reason?
I still have a few taels of silver at home, but my mother is ill.If you don't last for two months, you have to stop.He entrusted his mother to his aunt, and came with his third uncle, so he wanted to beg the emperor to give everyone a way to survive.
But who knew that when they arrived at the place, the emperor disappeared, and everyone was stopped outside. There was no food, no drink, no shelter.There is nothing to ask for.All the dry food that everyone brought was eaten up on the way, and they brought some small silver, which was to pay for going back.I spent some time here these days.To be honest, if things go on like this, everyone will not have enough money to return home.Is this going to beg for food all the way back?
But is begging sure to make it home alive?When I got home, my house was broken. Where can I find a way?
Maybe if you stay, there will always be a way out if you stay.
Someone kept cheering everyone up in the crowd, saying that the imperial court would definitely not let everyone gather here.Even if you don't want to care about their lives, don't you want the lives of the people in the city?Now the capital is like a besieged city, unable to get in or get out, can so many people not be in a hurry?
So Sanyazi stayed, and he also believed in the previous rumors that Baixin was a good emperor who loved the people like his own son.The prince's reputation is so good, how could he ignore the people.
Unexpectedly, it lasted for a few days and there were two consecutive autumn rains. To be honest, he had never experienced such pain in the past few years.The third uncle fell ill, and the previous emotions of the villagers began to spread.When he came back with water, there was a lot of abuse all the way.
Cursing and scolding are all scolding the emperor.
It is said that the emperor is hypocritically benevolent, but in fact he is a foolish emperor.
He squeezed over, thinking that it was impossible, he really had to risk his life to find a doctor to prescribe medicine for the third uncle.
Just as he was talking, there was a commotion in the distance, saying that Huimin had set up a porridge shed to tell everyone not to mess up and panic, and they would definitely not watch everyone starve to death.Immediately afterwards, people in the medical center continued to boil soup and hot water every day, and divided them into several places.
San Yazi brought hot porridge and soup, and tears fell.He remembered what the aunt who gave him the medicine said, "Don't thank me, thank you old lady. The old lady is merciful. Without the old lady, there would be no Huimin Department, and there would be no medical center."
Yes!Yes!
The third child fed the porridge and medicine to the third uncle, and saw that the third uncle fell asleep, and the fever subsided after a while.The big stone in his heart loosened in an instant, and then he burst into tears, "Thank you for your kindness! Thank you for your kindness."
The emotions were instantly contagious, some people sobbed, and some people said: "The old lady is a good lady, why don't you care about an emperor's son."
"What do you know? The emperor was not born to the old lady."
"The emperor was not born by the old lady, but by the old sage. The old lady can't control the emperor, so can the old sage not control the emperor?"
As soon as the words came out, the people around were stunned: Yes!If you can't find the emperor, you can find the old emperor.
Who is not like this?When the son caused trouble, the first person to look for was the son's father.Is it wrong to call a father to discipline his son?
Someone shouted again: "The old sage is in the academy, and the academy is just outside the city."
Yes!We will not enter the city unless we are allowed to enter the city. We will go to the old sage.
After one word was passed around, the crowd rushed towards the academy.
It's still far away, but Dehai has already sent the news to Fourth Master's desk, "It looks like a mess, but someone is actually guiding it."
There were no troubles along the way, no robbery, no beating, no smashing, no criminal offenses, and even trampling on the bankers rarely happened, it was not organized by someone to hell.
Lin Yutong frowned, "Who arranged for the porridge and medicine at the Huimin Office and the medical center?" She didn't give such an order!
De Hai said in a low voice: "Princess Hewan asked the two big princesses to arrange it. As for the application of medicine...it was arranged by Miss Cai."
He Wan and Cai Baoyi!
Fourth Master nodded and waved to De Hai, "Go do your work."
As soon as De Hai left, Lin Yutong frowned and looked at Fourth Master: "What the hell is Honghui doing?"
"Er Niang!" Hong Hui lifted the curtain, "There is no cure for chaos!"
Lin Yutong looked at him, you are going up now, are you a little too impatient.
Honghui smiled, and looked at Ahma, "You and Ahma hid on the Zhuangzi, and have never been able to step into the Forbidden City! Why? That's where you and Ahma's home is. The son just wanted to ask the courtiers to ask for it." Call the people of the world to carry you and Ama into the Forbidden City openly!"
