The Rebirth of the Red Chamber Xue Pan married Lin Daiyu

During this period of time, Xue Pan's mind was full of taxation issues, the Yellow River channel issue, the salt system in the south of the Yangtze River, the southern Xinjiang issue, the northern Xinjiang issue, etc., which filled his mind.

Xue Pan couldn't help slandering in his heart that although the emperor is supreme, it is actually quite tiring to worry about these important national affairs every day.

In April, palace examination.

He has lived up to Mr. Shen's more than one month of training, and the questions in the palace examination are indeed related to it.

The question of the palace examination this time is the issue of sea and territory, how to solve it.

Today, the southern border of Daqing borders many countries, and there are still some foreign people who do not border land from southern borders.Over the years, there have been many conflicts between Daqing and the countries in southern Xinjiang, and small conflicts occurred from time to time.

In the past few years, the imperial power has changed, the southern border states have become more and more arrogant, and the conflict with the Daqing Dynasty has intensified and has a tendency to expand.

Some people in the imperial court advocated for war, while others advocated for peace.

This war also happened in the previous life.Xue Pan didn't know the specific situation of the war, but only knew that the court was defeated in the end, and after a peace negotiation, they got married, and finally chose the Jia family Tanchun.

This essay is very poorly written.

The emperor used this question as the question of the palace examination. The emperor has just taken power for two years, and the previous Daqing and Nanjiang did have a war.The emperor's heart is the main battle.

As a result of the previous life, Daqing lost.

Therefore, this strategy, whether it is about the main battle or the main peace, is not good.

The main battle at this moment is in line with the emperor's wishes, but if he loses the battle in the future, he will inevitably be disgusted by the emperor, and even become a scapegoat and the target of the minister's criticism.Moreover, knowing that this battle will be defeated, he wrote the main battle, as if he was pushing the soldiers on the battlefield to die.

If the Lord is in harmony, it is natural not to be in harmony with the Emperor's will.The war in southern Xinjiang took place in two years.And in the past two years, it is very likely that he will be left out in the cold.Three years later, there will be a group of new Jinshi.At that time, the advantage of my own membership this time will disappear.

Moreover, he wanted to take advantage of the glory of the new Jinshi to propose to Daiyu.Daiyu is the head of Qingning County, and her marriage needs the Queen's approval.What if the policy theory at this time is not in line with the emperor's wishes, and the emperor does not allow him to marry Daiyu?

If his grades are average and he is just an ordinary second-class Jinshi, naturally he doesn't have to think so much.But he is a member of the Huiyuan, and it is very likely that he will be the champion of this year. His strategy and theory have received the most attention.

Therefore, the above ideas are not his conjectures, but very likely to happen.

Xue Pan's cold sweat broke out.

It was extremely cold at the heights, and he really felt it at this moment.

Because he is Huiyuan, in the main hall, he sits in the middle of the first row.The emperor was on the throne directly in front of him, which meant that he was sitting right under the eyes of the emperor.This made him tense up all the time, for fear that he might go a little too far.

Although the Palace of Preserving Harmony is resplendent and majestic, the rooms of the Gongyuan are small and narrow, and the conditions are difficult, but now he would rather go to the number room for the exam.

Xue Pan told himself that he must calm down.In this world, he has done ghosts, so what is he afraid of?

After several deep breaths, Xue Pan gradually calmed down and began to think about how to write this policy theory.In the end, he finally came up with a way, which was to find another way.

The exam questions are about how to deal with issues in the sea and borders, not the war in southern borders.The entire southern sea area belongs to the sea area. Xue Pan simply analyzed the friction between the Daqing Dynasty and the southern border countries, and did not clearly write whether he was the main war or the main peace. He focused on the South China Sea.

Xue Pan first analyzed the situation in Daqing.The Daqing Dynasty is now dominated by sages and ministers, the country is rich and the people are safe, and the army is also strong and strong, brave and good at fighting, and greatly praised the situation in Daqing.

Southern Xinjiang is located in the difficult position of Daqing, and there are relatively few borders with Daqing, and many places are separated by sea areas. Since Daqing prohibits the sea, the strength of Daqing's navy is not too strong.In most cases, they meet Japanese pirates on land, and they don't have much experience in naval battles.The soldiers of the Daqing Dynasty were mostly accustomed to horse battles, and relatively unfamiliar with water battles.

Although the country in southern Xinjiang is small, because of its proximity to water, all the people are soldiers.

In addition, there is another very important factor to consider, which is miasma.

The so-called miasma is recorded in medical books, and it is mostly poisonous gas produced by the decay of animals and plants after death.The people in southern Xinjiang have lived in that kind of place for a long time, so they naturally have ways to resist, but when the soldiers of Daqing arrived in southern Xinjiang, they were not acclimatized, and the loss rate would be very high.

Xue Pan listed the situation in southern Xinjiang he knew and what Mr. Shen had popularized before.

Generally speaking, the national strength of the Daqing Dynasty is dominant, but in terms of geographical advantage and harmony with people, the Daqing Dynasty is not dominant.

War is not achieved in a day. Know yourself and the enemy and let go of a hundred battles.Although Daqing's national strength is strong, it must take these situations into consideration.When the time is right, take it easy.

Xue Pan put aside the Southern Xinjiang War, and wrote:

Today, as far as students know in the Daqing Dynasty, there are tea from Siam, textiles from Qianxiang, coral, cat’s eye and emerald from Zhenzhen, toys from Persia, cloth from Ohros, and Fransya from Haixi. Venus glass, and countless imported products, such as Western chiming clocks, are no worse than those of the Daqing Dynasty.

This fully shows that this world is very big, and the other side of the sea is not the savages who drink blood as we think, they have also developed their civilization.Moreover, there are many countries across the sea, and the technology of some countries is no longer under the Qing Dynasty.

The most important point is that they have crossed the vast ocean in their ships and arrived at the Daqing Dynasty!

People from other countries can come to Daqing through the vast sea.But Daqing has a ban on seas, and no sails are allowed to enter the sea.In this way, wouldn’t the vast sea be ceded to the Gentiles?

In the Daqing Dynasty, there were military teams and red cannons, but the guns in the workshop were also being improved all the time.Moreover, when foreigners come to Daqing and see Daqing's technology, they will naturally learn and imitate it, but Daqing knows very little about foreigners!How do you know that the level of firearms of the foreigners has not caught up with or even surpassed Daqing's day?

At that time, Daqing's guns are not as good as the opponent's. The opponent has boats and can pry open Daqing's national gate at any time, but Daqing has no boats. This is the real crisis.

After Xue Pan finished writing, he was in a cold sweat.

These words can be described as outrageous, but he was unwilling to rewrite them.And it was too late.

Xue Pan polished it up, tactfully explained the matter, and then copied it again. The time is almost up.Xue Pan gritted his teeth and handed it in.

When the time came, the examination papers of the tribute scholars were collected.

The war in southern Xinjiang was discussed for a long time in the court, but no conclusion was reached, and the emperor has never made a statement. He did not expect this to be a question in the palace examination.

These examiners know a lot about the problems in southern Xinjiang, and they are also curious about how this year's Xinke Scholars view southern Xinjiang.

Several examiners read the policy and theories of the tributes.

There are both the main battle and the main and the ones. Several reviewers shook their heads with a smile. The writing is brilliant, but the content is empty.If these strategies are placed on the morning court, as long as they are said, they will be questioned continuously by the other party until they catch the handle.

One of the examiners saw a policy theory, gave a light snort, and said, "It's interesting."

After reading it, he drew a circle on it, handed it to the chief examiner, Shang Shu of the Ministry of Rites, and said, "This test paper is another way of thinking, Mr. Ji has a look."

Ji Shangshu took it, read it and said: "I didn't expect the matter in southern Xinjiang, but someone contacted Haiban." After finishing speaking, he didn't know how to judge this paper.

Are you saying he digressed?The title given by the emperor really only mentioned sea areas, and did not name wars.But these Jinshi are all discerning people, and this matter was originally tacit.

It would be a pity if this policy theory was dismissed because of this.Moreover, this literary talent and conclusion really won his heart.

Ji Shangshu also belonged to the Peace School.It's not that he doesn't support war, but the troubles in southern Xinjiang, in his heart, are just a mustard disease.Although the Supreme Emperor has delegated power, Prince Zhongshun is still dormant.Moreover, although the prairie Tartars in the north have become more stable in the past two years, how can we know whether the north will add to the chaos after Daqing fights with the south? The Tartars are the confidant of the Daqing Dynasty.

Ji Shangshu feels that it is still the case now.It's okay for Nanjiang to give in temporarily.The stability of the court is the most important thing.

When the emperor first came to power, it was time to show his grand plans.He endured the Supreme Emperor, endured loyalty and obedience, and was so aggrieved that he didn't want to endure the provocations of the small southern border and the country of small pellets, and wanted to fight.

Daqing's national power far exceeds that of southern Xinjiang, but most of Daqing's soldiers are landlubbers.Because of the ban on the sea, the navy in Daqing can't do it.Therefore, the victory or defeat is between five and five.

Ji Shangshu thought about it for a while, and the emperor's talent is rough, so this strategy can be regarded as scratching the itch.Ji Shangshu drew a circle on it and put it in the top ten stack of policy theories.

After marking the papers, the clerk will write down the rankings one by one.

Ji Shangshu wondered who the tribute who wrote the sea ban was, and at first glance it turned out to be Jinke Huiyuan.

Ji Shangshu stroked his beard and smiled, thinking it should be so.

After the ranking was determined, Ji Shangshu submitted the dossier with the ranking and all the examination papers to the emperor.

The emperor looked at the ranking and put it aside.

When he picked up the first policy statement, the emperor's eyes lit up and his heart was terrified.

Banning the sea is a national policy left over from the previous dynasty.

When the former dynasty was founded, the founding emperor of the previous dynasty occupied the country, and the rebel army who fought against him failed and hid in the sea, becoming pirates.Coupled with the prevalence of Japanese pirates at that time, in order to prevent pirates and Japanese pirates from disturbing the coastal areas, the previous dynasty issued a policy of sea ban.

This dynasty has continued the sea ban policy of the previous dynasty, but it is much more relaxed than the previous dynasty.

Therefore, in addition to paying tribute, some merchants from neighboring countries brought goods from their countries into the Daqing Dynasty.

For private trade among the people, the imperial court mostly turned a blind eye and closed one eye, and did not pursue it too much.But in terms of policy, the sea is still banned.

What is said in this policy now makes sense.

The emperor looked at the two-meter-tall chime bell in the corner of the imperial study room, which was paid by Franz as a tribute.At the same time, a few smaller chime clocks and pocket watches were also offered as tribute.

The Ministry of Industry took away a chime clock and asked the craftsmen most proficient in mechanical manufacturing to take it apart and look at it.In the end, although it was successfully assembled, the craftsman said that Daqing could not manufacture some of the parts for the time being.

At that time, the emperor regretted it for a while, so he let it go, and didn't think about other aspects.

Regarding Nanjiang, to be honest, the emperor didn't pay much attention to it, it was just a small country.It was precisely because of this that he could no longer tolerate their provocations.

Now, from the perspective of this theory, the territory of this world is much larger and more fertile than what I thought before.I shouldn't be arrogant and keep thinking that the Daqing Dynasty is the best kingdom!This is a crisis, but also an opportunity.

The emperor asked his father-in-law to pass on his oral instructions, and asked the Lifan Academy to sort out the countries and tributes paid by the Daqing Dynasty over the years, as well as all the information about these countries, and then began to look at other policies.

It seems that it is just some commonplace talk.

The emperor put Xue Pan's policy argument as the champion, changed the order of the other papers a little, and let the Ministry of Rites publish the list.

Now, the emperor's mind is full of the vast sea and the vast territory beyond the sea.

If he can open up a territory of the Daqing Dynasty overseas, then his literary, moral and martial arts will not lose to the Qin Emperor and Hanwu!
