Qing Dynasty Secret History

Chapter 97
It is said that the Korean incident was over, and Japan was still winning. Yuan Gong was very angry, and just before Wu and Xu's two star envoys, he took a leave of absence and returned to Beiyang on a super brave soldier ship.Seeing Uncle Li and paining Chen for his wonderful strategy for governing Han, it is advisable to take this opportunity to ask the king of Han for his political failure and the crime of chaos.Selected to supervise the country and take charge of it on behalf of him.Uncle Li was noncommittal, and only said that we will see in the future.Yuan Gong also wrote a letter to express his heartfelt words, please imitate the construction of the Han Dynasty, otherwise Han will not belong to me.Today's theorists say it saves trouble and saves money; if the husband loses his life and is not cured, when the incident happens, China must devote all its strength to it.If you are troublesome today, you will save trouble in the future; if you spend more money today, you will save money in the future.Uncle Li was mature and prudent, and finally refused to act rashly.

In the spring of the 11th year of Guangxu, Ito Hirobumi, the Japanese special minister, and Saigo Congmichi, the Minister of Agriculture, came to Tianjin to discuss the signing of the Korean Treaty. The court appointed Earl Li Hongzhang as the plenipotentiary minister and Wu Dacheng as the deputy minister to discuss with the Japanese envoy.But Uncle Li knows how to put on airs. In Zhili governor's yamen, from the gate to the lobby, there are troops full of troops, bronze forks, sabers, long anchors, banners, knives, foreign guns, densely packed, neat and tidy, okay? mighty.

The airs were set up, so Ito and Xixiang were invited to come in.The two-day envoy is really powerful. Although Uncle Li is majestic, he is not willing to back down when he discusses the agreement.The first general agreed on three items: first, the soldiers stationed in North Korea by the two countries should be withdrawn; second, both countries can send personnel as trainers for North Korean military training; third, if the two countries send troops to North Korea in the future, they must mutually Preliminary written notice.

Uncle Li is a famous ZTE general and a hero of all ages, but he is helpless in international law and doesn't understand it very well.

After signing this mutual protection treaty, they still told others that North Korea is our vassal state.

At this time, the two major negotiations between Vietnam and North Korea have ended.The imperial court was determined to work hard and disciplined the big officials in Fengjiang. If they still followed the old habits, they followed suit.Taiwan was designated as another province, and the governor of Fujian was changed to the governor of Taiwan, stationed in Taiwan.The original governor of Fujian was replaced by the governor of Fujian and Zhejiang.Prepare for coastal defense, set up a naval office, and order Prince Chun Yizhen to be the prime minister for naval affairs, and the coastal navy should be dispatched under control; he also ordered Yikuang and Li Hongzhang to manage it together, and Shanqing and Zeng Jize to help them manage it.Firstly, a navy will be refined from the Beiyang, and other coastal provinces will be built year by year.The salary of the king's bedroom is the bow of the minister's drum;Not to guard against the British country, taking advantage of this opportunity, India sent troops to occupy Burma, and it was wiped out with a single drum.Zeng Jize, the Minister in the UK, followed the imperial order and negotiated with the British outsiders. He said that he couldn't establish a king and save the sacrifice, but he just won all the tributes and sent envoys to contribute as scheduled.

The Empress Dowager Cixi is naturally arrogant and arrogant, and she wants to make China the number one power in the world.

Since the curtain was drawn down, frequent hardships and repeated funerals have gradually wiped away that competitive heart.After the conclusion of the Burmese negotiations, it was ordered that starting from the winter solstice of this year, the emperor would pay homage to the Yuanqiu, and hold a pro-government ceremony within the first month of next year.When Prince Chun Yixuan and Prince Li Shiduo saw this decree, they went to the court one after another, begging the emperor to take charge of the government, and the mother would train the government for several years.Empress Dowager Cixi learned of her sincerity, and she gave her permission.

In this year, the Beiyang Navy was established. Uncle Li invited him to inspect, and sent Prince Chun to Tianjin for inspection, and Li Lianying, the chief eunuch, accompanied him to serve.Uncle Li appointed a cadre to handle the errands, and told him face to face: "In the Xingyuan, if you want to take care of the room, you need to be more particular than others. I don't obey the fluff."

The committee member should go and handle it carefully.Frame the walls, decorate calligraphy and paintings, and arrange some chairs. Whenever there is a matter, they all raise it in person. Only after everything is done properly, can they dare to report to Uncle Li.Uncle Li came over to have a look, shook his head and said, "How can it be easy to live in this kind of place, Mr. Li, how can it be easy to live in Mr. Li."

Then the committee member asked: "I entrusted you with this matter because of your old business, and it's done like this. What do you think it looks like? Why did I tell you to come?"

Uncle Li said something, and the committee members responded. After Uncle Hou finished speaking, he slowly argued: "This room is only one level worse than the prince's. A lowly position is already very particular."

Uncle Li said angrily: "My lord's is short of 01:30, it doesn't matter, Mr. Li's, how is it so bad? Why don't you change it for me."

The committee members kept making noises, so they hurriedly changed.

It turned out that Li Lianying was the first favored eunuch beside the Queen Mother.The eunuchs of the Qing Dynasty were not allowed to go beyond the sixth grade. Xuanzong was very fond of men, and the favored eunuch begged for a title. Xuanzong specially made a white jade crown to reward him.Only Li Lianying was rewarded by the Empress Dowager as a second-rank top wearer because of his hard work.Lianying people are very witty, and whenever they can agree first, the Queen Mother's soup, medicine, bait, utensils, clothing and other items will be arranged for you early without you opening your mouth.

If Lianying asked for leave, the internal eunuch on duty would not be happy, and would always be whipped.

Although the eunuchs, big and small, were jealous of him, none of them could match him in terms of skill and ability, so they had to cry and beg him to cancel the leave.One day, the Empress Dowager went to Prince Gong's mansion and passed by Lianying's house. She saw agate lacquer strips pasted on the front of the door, and the words "General Manager Li Yu" in big letters were shocking, and she couldn't help staring at him.When they arrived at the palace, Lianying took the opportunity to ask for a few hours of leave.After a while, I went back to the mansion to sell the vacation, and said to my face: "The servant is on duty in the inner court, and he doesn't pay much attention to the affairs of the family. Unexpectedly, the little inner eunuch acted ignorantly and posted the words "Minister". Painfully flogged to death. I beseech the grace of heaven, and hand over this unlawful slave to the Ministry of Internal Affairs for strict handling."

The Queen Mother smiled and said: "You have already done it, so why bother to hand it over to the Ministry of Internal Affairs if you forget it."

It can be seen that Lianying favored the Queen Mother.

That's why Uncle Li is so flattering.

At present, the committee members were rejected, so they had to hold back and re-arrange.On this day, King Chun and Jian Li arrived in Tianjin at the same time.Uncle Li received the reception conscientiously. When it was time for review, King Chun sat in front and Supervisor Li followed behind. The rest of the etiquette was not divided between master and servant.

After returning to Beijing after the event, there was a famine, Zhu Yixin, the censor, made a discount, and he played the role of repairing the province in case of a disaster, to prevent abuses in the eunuchs and temples, and Li Lianying accompanied Yixuan on patrol, fearing that he would follow the same mistakes as the supervisors of the Tang Dynasty.The queen mother was furious, and the order was clearly echoed, and the order was sent to the master to make up for it.

At this time, Ai'an is all over the world, nothing is happening in all directions, and Prince Chun is a close relative, related to the country's relatives, so he can't help but come up with ideas to embellish the peace and prosperity of singing and dancing.Fortunately, the Navy's funds are very generous, and 3000 million gold was allocated to expand the former site of Qingyi Garden and change its name to the Summer Palace.Turn useless into useful in one transfer.In February of the 14th year of Guangchu, the garden work was completed.Empress Dowager Cixi led Tong Dezong, and was lucky to stay here.Qionglou Yuyu, Fudaolin Palace, indescribable prosperity and indescribable magnificence.Yang Xiaoou, who lived at the time, had a poem as proof, and his speech said: The Cixi of the Qing Dynasty blessed Kang Yi, Zhaoyu Zhuang, Chengshou, respectfully and respectfully presented the Empress Dowager Chongxi.The emperor is extremely filial, and Bo Hai sings it as the limit of King Wen.The site is chosen on the slope of the west mountain, the mountain is called Longevity, and the garden is named Summer Palace, which is why Gaisheng Tianzi raised his relatives and enjoyed his life for hundreds of millions of years.Dove workmanship materials, business structure, splendid palaces, beautiful mountains and rivers, green springs and stones, lush forests, all things are effective, and the work of heaven is condescending.To flatter the emperor and treat the empress dowager with entertainment.In the garden, there is the Hall of Renshou.The pavilion inspires Wenchang, the pavilion knows the spring scenery, the building leans against the setting sun, the room of rosy clouds, the beng of Yulan, the pavilion is suitable for Yunbi, the pavilion is full of lotus root fragrance, the algae painting is end-to-end, and the fan of Enfeng is long.Eyesight and Cong, Angjian ancient music, vertical as it is, it starts with completion.The garden is called Dehe, and the name of the hall is Yile. It has three upper and lower floors. The green is fragrant, the meaning is late and the clouds are here, the river is swimming and the clouds are flying, and the slope of the middle mountain is full of endless meaning. Looking down at the blue garden and looking down, looking for the clouds to write about the style of autumn.Thousands of peaks surrounded by emerald greens, Buddhist temples line clouds, fragrant trees, wisdom seaside, halls called Jieshou, pavilions towering with precious clouds, clouds and pine nests dense, lakes and mountains are true, orioles and yellows are clear, borders are green and green, and nests are full of trees. Old, the tourists in the painting, cover up to this point, and those who look up to the emptiness and cleanness without a speck of dust.Youfulou can take advantage of autumn, the gatekeeper invites the moon, the autumn water is balanced, and the waves are magnificent. All the uncanny workmanship is amazing.If it is the seat of half water, the hall of sending waves, the arch of the bridge and the arch, the hall is cool, the clouds are banked and the islands are emerald green and fragrant, you can throw away the osmanthus, the wine cup flows, the wind flows on the water surface, and the lotus is clean to enjoy the coolness.The other Zen caves of the Jade Belt Bridge are solemn and gorgeous, with a meticulous structure and a grand view of the world, which is beyond the reach of ordinary people.

But seeing that there is no heat in the three volts, it is spring in all seasons; the pavilions are like swords, and the grass is shallow; the water and lakes are clear, and the mountains are beautiful;Bright and eccentric, its halls are also; deep and spacious, its closed doors are also surrounded by twists and turns, its walls are also; Pagodas and Buddhist halls are like incense sticks; stones and stones are like walking around in circles;In order to avoid the heat, to get cool, to go to foreign envoys, and to court princes, it is a great chemical industry.The stringed dome falls, the top of the river is set, and the top is opened, for the sake of nourishing the holy virtue, and the one who lives forever and without bounds.It is to use humble Taiji, humble and young, ninety percent, proud to build chapters, Yi Han Jin, thin Qi and Liang, Xiang Palace has no Song Dynasty, Li Palace has no Tang Dynasty, so what is the boast of Milou, let alone Ah Fang!

Empress Dowager Cixi was delighted when she saw the magnificence of the garden. Since then, all government affairs, big and small, have been decided and carried out in the garden.At the end of the 15th month, a decree was sent down by Yi, and Yehenala, the daughter of Guixiang, the deputy governor, was appointed as the queen. The 13-year-old Tatara, the minister, was named Jin's concubine. For Jane.In February next year, Emperor Dezong will get married, Empress Dowager Cixi will hold a ceremony for returning to power, the grandeur and solemnity, the pomp and bustle, people will be terrified to say it.After returning to power, the first important thing is to respect the emblem of the empress dowager.If you want to know what Dezong did after taking office, let's listen to the next chapter.
