Kowloon wins

Chapter 825
On the seventh day of February in the first year of Chengde, Emperor Daxing went to the funeral. The emperor brought his ministers to support the coffin and sent it to Zunhua. Rikai Enke, University scholar Ma Qi is the main examiner. As soon as the news comes out, the whole world celebrates; on February 25, Prince Yong Yinxiang and Prince Ren Hongqing jointly signed the book, requesting the expansion of the new army and other matters. The emperor thought there were some omissions. , Not allowed, the ministers discussed it.

On February [-]th, Zhang Tingyu, a scholar of the university, published the book and said: "The important tasks of military aircraft are the most important of the country, and must be done by His Majesty himself. Therefore, please set up a "Military Aircraft Department" for use, and the emperor will allow it to be handled by Zhang Tingyu." Unexpectedly, as soon as the edict was issued, the courtiers suddenly impeached Zhang Tingyu, accusing Zhang Tingyu of bewitching him, and saying that Zhang Tingyu changed the ancestral system without authorization. Shangshu Heshen, Xingbu Arsun'a, Zuodu Censor Nalan Kuixu and other high-ranking officials all put bullets on the bullets. Soon after, the governors of the surrounding provinces also opposed this chapter to Beijing. In just a few days, the voice of opposition was overwhelming. It has surged like a tide, and Emperor Chengde has repeatedly made moves, saying that this move is from the Sacred Heart, and it is a temporary measure. After the formation and training of the new army is completed, it will be abolished. However, the officials not only refused to listen, but also opposed it. On the contrary, the sound became louder and louder, making it difficult for Emperor Chengde to step down.

"Qing'er, tell me, why did the 'Military Aircraft Department' incident become such a mess? What should happen now, huh?"

The establishment of the "Military Aircraft Office" can be said to be the first edict of actual government affairs since Emperor Chengde ascended the throne. It has been repeatedly stated several times, but it has not been able to suppress the rebound of the officials. This makes Emperor Chengde angry. The nose is crooked, but it is difficult to force this matter. After all, he has just taken over the position, and his foundation is very shallow. If he really wants to act tough, he will inevitably worry that something will happen. Hong Qing, who was in charge of the expansion of the army, was summoned to the Qianqing Palace, and before Hong Qing could finish the ceremony, Emperor Chengde shouted angrily.

what happened?Needless to say, Fourth Master, Eighth Master, Fourteenth Master and others are not fools, how could they not see the strangeness of the "Military Aircraft Department", and how could they sit and wait for death, and fight back in groups. It's inevitable, but anyway, if it is said that the current one-sided situation will arise, it is not only the fourth master and others who are secretly working hard, Hong Qing also has a foot in it-he does not express his position on this matter Of course, Zhao Shenqiao, Shen He, Dai Zi, Rong Zhu and other members of the Hongqing family would not express their opinions easily, and of course the people belonging to the old fifteen brothers also died down. Walking in the study, Li Minquan, Chen Guanzhao and a few confidantes of Emperor Chengde shouted desperately there, and it was possible to accomplish something, but in the end, it naturally became what it is now.

"Returning to the emperor Ama, the sons and ministers thought that the ministers were puzzled by the new policy. However, it is more likely that there are people with evil intentions who are secretly manipulating. Now the situation is chaotic. Use force to do it. If there is something wrong, it is better to find another way.”

Of course, Hong Qing would not say that this situation was caused by his secret acquiescence, and it was even more impossible to tell Emperor Chengde the truth that he threatened the enemy's self-respect, so he simply replied with a worried look.

"Hmph, a bunch of wolves, I want to see how long they can make a fuss! Tell me, how can we find another way to do this?"

The ones taking the lead in making trouble this time are either your disciples or ministers who are close to your masters. Emperor Chengde is not blind, so it is impossible for him not to see that a group of younger brothers are deliberately trying to lose face. I understand that Emperor Chengde already has no way to deal with it. If not for this, he would not have called Hongqing here—Emperor Chengde has always cherished feathers, and now it is rumored that Emperor Chengde is valuable because of his feathers. This is the truth, but Emperor Chengde was extremely unhappy about it. If it wasn't for the fact that the current court situation could not be separated from Hongqing's strong support, he would have wanted to freeze Hongqing first. He would ask Yu Hongqing about the policy, probably because the first edict of government affairs absolutely cannot allow mistakes, otherwise, he might lose his reputation as Emperor Chengde.

"Huang Ama Mingjian, I believe that there are two key people in this turmoil. One is the fourteenth master who is in the middle of the contact, and the other is the head of Song Zhuhe University scholar. If you want to calm the situation, you need to start from these two places. .”

Long before the current situation was formed, Hongqing already had the means to deal with it and the necessary means of attack, and now that she said it would come out, she seemed confident.

"Song Zhu? Hmph, I haven't even settled an old score with him, this old fool. How dare I act like this this time, I really deceived me too much!"

As soon as Song Zhu was mentioned, Emperor Chengde immediately remembered the humiliation of being taken down by Song Zhu in public, and immediately became angry, slapped the dragon case angrily, and cursed furiously.

"Emperor Ama calm down, Master Song is an important minister of the former emperor. Although his behavior is perverse, it is not appropriate to deal with it seriously. Now that he is old, it is good to allow him to beg for an official position, but it is necessary for the fourteenth uncle to deal with it." You have to be careful and cautious, and you must not neglect it.”

In the final analysis, this turmoil was launched by all those who had opinions on Emperor Chengde, even Hong Qing was involved, it was not just the crime of the old fourteen and Song Zhu, but these two served successively in the Ministry of War Director, there is nothing wrong with putting the label of opposing military reform on these two people. To bring down these two people, no matter for Emperor Chengde or Yu Hongqing, it must be done It is precisely because of these considerations that Hongqing singled out these two as the first round of targets. Of course, compared to the deeply rooted fourth and eighth masters, these two are also difficult to deal with. It's relatively easy, which generally means that it's easy first and then difficult. As for how to deal with it, Hong Qing has already thought about it maturely, but she is not in a hurry to tell the whole story. Instead, she said half of it. Keep half of it and wait for Emperor Chengde to ask himself what happened.

"Well, Song Zhu is old and frail. I feel sorry for him. I can't bear to use it too much, so let him go back to Shengjing to retire. This edict, I issued it when I turned around. It's just the fourteenth..., um , does Qing'er have any good strategies?"

Although Emperor Chengde was extremely dissatisfied with Song Zhu, he was not a bloodthirsty person after all, and he didn't want to bear the notoriety of killing the top ministers in vain. Although he didn't want to indulge Song Zhu lightly, in the end, he agreed rationally Hong Qing's suggestion, but Emperor Chengde was a little bit blind as to how to deal with the old fourteenth—killing, he couldn't be killed, after all, Emperor Chengde really didn't dare to kill his younger brother before his bones were cold. The matter, let it go, and you can't let it go. Didn't you see that the old fourteen dared to make a scene in the mourning hall as soon as he came back? No matter what, this kind of heroic generation is placed in the capital, and it is an unstable factor, let alone this person in the army. It has a potential force that is so huge that if it is not handled properly, the world may be in chaos again.

"Huang Ama learned that when Huang Mafa passed away, the fourteenth uncle did not return, and there was very little time to observe filial piety before his death. This is not in line with our Daqing way of benevolent and filial governance. Huang Ama can let him go to Zunhua It seems that there is nothing wrong with keeping filial piety for the late emperor and giving him the reputation of being a filial son."

Regarding the scruples in Emperor Chengde's heart, Hong Qing knew it very well, and she did not disappoint him. She pondered for a while, and immediately gave an incomparably perfect solution.

"Huh? Uh..."

Hearing Hong Qing's suggestion, even though Emperor Chengde's heart was moved, but his heart returned to his heart, he was still afraid that when the edict was issued, the old fourteen would have a backlash. I was worried that something would happen again that would make him unable to step down.

Oh, you always want to be that kind of thing, but also set up a memorial archway, how can there be such a beautiful thing in the world!

Seeing Emperor Chengde groaning indecisively, Hong Qing couldn't help but muttered in her heart, of course, the muttering was the muttering, but Hong Qing wouldn't bring it to her face, and she didn't intend to say anything further. Instead, he stood silently with his hands down, waiting for Emperor Chengde to make a decision himself, there was nothing else to avoid suspicion.

"I think this strategy is feasible. It's just that the old fourteen is stubborn. If he makes some jokes, he might lose face to my Tian family. Since this strategy was offered by Qing'er, it should be a safe method , I will give you a decree later, this matter is up to you, I just want the result."

After thinking about it, Emperor Chengde couldn't find a good solution, so he simply played a rogue, and unceremoniously threw the hot potato to Hongqing, his words were full of undeniable refusing.

Damn it, you really want to set up a memorial archway, yes, you are ruthless!
Seeing that Emperor Chengde played a scoundrel so openly, Hongqing really couldn't laugh or cry, but it was hard to say "no" bluntly at this moment, so she had no choice but to bow down and answer: "Huang Ama Shengming, my son should handle it properly."

"Well, that's good. How is the expansion of the new army going?"

Hearing that Hongqing agreed, Emperor Chengde immediately secretly let out a sigh of relief, fearing that Hongqing would go back on his word, he hurriedly changed the topic.

"Returning to Huang Ama, the Artillery Command Academy is no longer sufficient. My son and Uncle Shisan are discussing the establishment of a new military academy. The general intention has been determined. The only thing that remains unresolved is the Academy. As for the candidate for the principal of the school, Thirteenth Uncle suggested that I should be the principal. I thought that this matter must not be done. I originally wanted to invite Huang Ama to be the principal, but I have been busy with various matters and have not reported to Huang Ama for a while. Today, I took advantage of it, and asked Huang Ama to take time to go to the military academy to lay the foundation stone for my Qing military academy."

Knowing that Emperor Chengde was just looking for something to say, but Hong Qing didn't care. She smiled and introduced a few words, and then made a request even more flatteringly.

"Oh? That's it, well, let me think about it."

As early as Longqian, Hongqing had expounded the idea of ​​building the army several times, among which the military academies were the most important. Emperor Chengde actually coveted the post of the principal of the military academies, but Due to affection, he just didn't have the nerve to open such a mouth. Now, Hongqing sent such a big piece of fat to the door. Emperor Chengde was very happy in his heart, but he was embarrassed to show it He was too eager, so he pretended to be hesitant and blurted out, but in fact, he had already wished for everything in his heart. Didn't you see the smug smile on his face that put all his thoughts on his face...
