Chapter 26 The twenty-sixth round of unjust murder of hero Wang Jue in Taiwan after the aftermath

The meeting place fell silent for a moment, Fukang'an glanced at Chai Daji secretly, he was giving orders to someone outside, he looked tall, but his face could not be seen clearly, he only walked a little staggeringly, only glanced at it and hurried to the meeting place .The next county magistrate has already asked: "Please show me, Commander-in-Chief, that all this will be done in silver, where will the money come from?" "Advance from military expenses. Li Shiyao's civil affairs expenses will be settled after two clearings." "It turns out that Lin Shuangwen's rebellious bandits have already divided some of the land. Do you want to pursue the farmers who divided the land?" Another person stood up and asked, "Some landlords have suffered disasters and their entire families have been killed. How should the land be distributed?"

"The land that is divided must be returned to the landlord, who will be held accountable, and the landlord must be restrained from retaliation. The unowned land will be closed first, and then distributed to the poor-remember this one, whoever dares to play tricks on it to make money, I will use the mower Cut him off!" Fukang'an spoke eloquently, it was obvious that he had thought carefully and had already made up his mind. Seeing that there was no question, he asked again: "Is there any more?" "I...have." Feng Kai, who was sitting in the front row, stood up timidly and said, "There are too many widowed men in the local area, can you transport some women from Fujian, China?"

Everyone in the venue burst into lively laughter.Feng Kaisheng said seriously: "Come from the mainland, even we as local officials and soldiers are not allowed to bring family members. We don't care. We are transferred after three years. Banner camp and green camp are permanent residents. If there is no woman, we will find a woman." , go to the mainland to fool around and hang out with local women. Women are not allowed to cross the sea in the mainland, and there is a shortage of women in the local area. There are many bachelors, so there is no scruple to rebel... In short, I can't tell... Anyway, there are no women." He said blushing Sitting face down, everyone in the venue laughed.Fukang'an also laughed at first, but he immediately figured it out, and said: "The great desire of men and women to eat and drink, if this desire is curbed, there will be conflicts. What are you laughing at? I think the ban on women entering the stage can be lifted, but this matter I want to ask for the decree to be implemented." Seeing his seriousness and gloomy face, everyone was frightened for a while, expecting that he still had something to say, they all lowered their heads.

"The meeting is over because we have nothing to say." Fukang'an said, "I have ordered everyone to prepare meals. After eating, I will go to the Chinese Army's Finance and Economics Department to get the package and close the defense." So everyone got up one after another, and after the chairs and stools made a mess, they went out of the house and walked to the kitchen.Fu Kang'an got up and smiled and sent everyone out of the dripping eaves of the lobby. Seeing Chai Daji coming from a distance, he just pretended not to see him, nodded and said a few perfunctory words with several county magistrates, quickly put away his smiling face, and said to Chai Daji: " Are you Zongbing Chai? Why are you here at this time?"

Chai Daji had already felt that Fukang'an was paying attention to him, and he was still taken aback by his sudden question.He is also a person who has been through the sea for a long time, and immediately calmed down his panic, but he refused to be rude, and calmly stepped forward to kowtow to Qian'er, and said: "I want to bid for Taiwan's general soldier Chai Daji, and I kowtow to the imperial envoy Fu Kang'an-" —Returning to my lord, because the ban on the city gate has been lifted, and the residents who have fled for several days have returned, and the lord's daily life is closed to prevent treacherous people from sneaking in and nuisance, so we have to step up the arrangement. I came here early this morning after bidding. In the first circle of the city, I was in a meeting when I came to see my lord. I didn’t dare to enter unless ordered by Jun, so—”

"That's not what I asked." Fukang'an interrupted him unceremoniously, "I have been in the city for three days, why didn't you come to see me?" He said, like a falcon staring at a chicken, condescendingly staring at Chai era.That Qizi civil servant served bowls of rice, and ate at the door of the big room. Seeing that the scenery here was not right, they stopped talking, laughing and making noise, and looked at the situation here in a daze.I heard Chai Daji knelt and said: "It turns out that the city defense was besieged, and the commander ordered someone to shoot two arrows. Both books have been received. There are orders in the book. No matter whether the thief breaks the siege or not, this member Chai Daji is not allowed to leave without permission." Duty, really want to maintain the law and order of Zhuluo. The bid is to follow the order of the emperor!" He had already heard that Fu Kang'an was going to make trouble for no reason, and he added caution in his tone.But to be honest, the so-called temperament is hard to change. Chai Daji I is the kind of stubborn person who is not soaked in oil and salt. How about it? ——The smell still came out.

Two dukes, and Chai Daji is also a first-class duke - it is clear that Zhu Luo was in danger at that time, Qianlong was in order to inspire people's hearts and praise integrity, in other words, he was granted the title of "Chai Daji is dead" - —The rank is the same, but the status is very different.One is the "Generalissimo of the World's Soldiers and Horses", a man of gold and jade, and the other is just a military officer of a county, a small general, who just froze like this, and the more he talked, the more twisted he was. "Didn't I summon you when I first entered the city?" Fukang'an's cheeks twitched imperceptibly, "This is really strange. I didn't say that you would not welcome imperial envoys. Could it be that Feng Kaisheng dared to tell lies? Why didn't you come? ?”

Chai Daji was shocked, angry, sad and angry in his heart, but he refused to bow his head. He knelt straight and said, "I was ill at the time, and I was witnessed by a military doctor and a local doctor! I can't remember what I said to Feng Kaisheng. Clear. But I said that there are some people who come to wait in the middle of the night—I took the medicine and came to guard the county government at midnight, and the adults have already closed the door." He lowered his head slightly and then raised it stubbornly, "Fourth Master Fu's meritorious service How dare you not know about your reputation? What you want is probably known by the heavens and the earth! You know what you know and I know! Let it be as you please!"

Fukang'an had never been so contradicted by a general.He himself is a talented and arrogant person, and he met Chai Daji who was equally domineering.The murderous intention flashed past, sparks flashed in his eyes, but he suppressed it again.He sneered and said: "I have no right to dismiss your duke. But I am the imperial envoy with full powers. You have no forgiveness in your eyes, and no one can forgive you. I understand what you mean, I said You can't be reused, I'm talking about you in public now, you just can't be reused, how about you?" "Hmph!" Chai Daji looked dissatisfied and turned away.

"You can no longer be the commander-in-chief." Fukang'an said coldly, "Taiwan's commander-in-chief surrendered Taiwan to Lin Shuangwen, and the military law is ruthless. I will withdraw your commander-in-chief—you can report to the Military Aircraft Department if you have something to say, and at the same time , I sent an order yesterday to remove Huang Shijian from Cheng'en's position, and I also announced today. I will send you to Fuzhou by boat, just like Changqing, and you will be dismissed for investigation!" After saying that, he turned his face and said loudly, "Chai Daji's military power is controlled by Wang Jibao takes over and wants to adapt it!" He cast a cold glance at Chai Daji, who was staring at him with his neck stuck, and said without any room for negotiation, "You go! Let's talk later when we have something to say!"

Chai Daji saluted obstinately, and took a long step towards the wall of the county government office. He suddenly remembered how many years ago, he got drunk and offended Fu Kang'an, the "uncle of the country" in the government office. Remembering that he was transferred to be the leader of Huguang Wuhan City Gate, all the tickets were issued, and there was no sound again, remembering that he was transferred to Changsha to observe the road, but the officials blocked him, transferred to Zhaohui's army as a general, transferred... all wasted. ...All thanks to this brother...Looking at this lonely city, thinking about the days and nights of staying here for a year, I suddenly felt sour, the houses in the city were blurred, and my steps became staggering, stepping on the cotton As empty and weak as the stacks.His heart twitched again, and his strong self-esteem gained the upper hand again. He stomped his feet suddenly, got on his horse and rode away. The pacification of Taiwan has been overwhelming since the Zhuluo War, faster than Fukang'an's fastest expectation.At that time, Li Shiyao transferred 10,000 new battalions from Guizhou and Hunan to assist in the battle. Within three months, he went to Fengshan and Changhua counties. So far, all the important cities, mountains and rivers in Taiwan are in the hands of the Qing army.Just escaped Lin Shuangwen and went into the mountains. There were less than 10,000 troops with Taiwanese aborigines. They were entrenched in the ravines around Datieliao, and they were still called emperors. The emperor wore tattered clothes and ate sweet potatoes for a living. Great. Fukang'an won consecutive battles and victories, the victory report was unveiled, and the red flag was played to Beijing. All the officials in the Military Aircraft Department and Yong Yan were celebrating each other, but He Shen had an ulterior motive, because Yong Yan saw Zhu Luo's great victory. Zouwen was so happy that he missed the word: "The emperor is relieved now. We can breathe a sigh of relief and clean up the finances of the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Internal Affairs-the treasury is too tight!" After walking away, the private account has already been burned.But he himself understands that the money he got is different from the governor who suffers a loss, who gets a few million and is happy, or the state and county magistrate who gets a lawsuit and the plaintiff gets tens of thousands of taels at a time. , Make a group of millionaires and go home.This is the big finance of the whole Qing Dynasty. The Yuanmingyuan, the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the Ministry of Household Affairs, the Ministry of War, and the treasuries of various provinces have a small account of one million taels, and a large one can reach tens of millions. Aunt Wu's account was transferred to Hefu's account... How much money does he have?He himself couldn't tell, neither could Aunt Wu, the eldest second aunt, and Liu Quan actually only knew about the garden worker's account, so he couldn't tell either.He can only make a "rough estimate" of several million or several million—I'm afraid it's hundreds of millions... Any corrupt official will be terrified when he thinks of this figure, because the Qing government's annual income from Kuyin is only more than 10 million taels!As long as these several ministries investigate together, as long as there is a wrong amount of money in the bank account and find out the mistakes... If it is overthrown, he will be the number one corrupt official in the world throughout the ages, what Yan Song and Yan Shifan—that is also the number one corrupt official, he is really a little witch in comparison The little witch! ... After being dazed for a while, I remembered that I was going to Jinxihua Gate to hand out the sign, and I was still washing my face, hanging the unplugged hole on the basin in a daze, thinking it was funny, so I hurriedly washed my face.At this moment Lianqing lazily got up to wait, He Shen was sitting, she stood behind and slowly combed his hair, carefully braiding his hair, and Wu came in through the curtain, and saw her daughter snuggling next to each other Beside He Shen, there was another pair of delicate and careless makeup, and he couldn't help being slightly jealous, but said to He Shen: "Ten emeralds have been sent from the Jinling store in the south. Would you like to have a look before putting them in the warehouse?" Looking at her daughter, "Is this hairpin with plum blossoms and pearls worn to sleep? Last time your uncle's cousin saw you wearing a pouch with seven emerald beads and a string of blood jade red. Come down and tell your uncle Grandma said, it costs 30,000 taels for a full body. And if you wear it too much, it will lose its elegance. It’s a waste of reputation—it’s said outside that you use jade carvings to pave the roads at home. Relatives take another look, it’s not true It just came true." Lianqing only smiled, and replied: "Mother's first face is too old-fashioned—by the way, I left a box for the pearl powder they sent, and I called Caigeer later. Send it over." "It's time for me to go in." He Shen stood up with a smile, "It's the Queen Mother's order for women to dress up. I don't want to look at the beads and ask them to store them in the treasury. The silver in the treasury can be exchanged for yellow ones, or it's pearls, jades and gems." The first category is the best. Don’t build more and more and bigger, that is Gege Mansion, together with up to three buildings on the account of the mansion, and make it public—like a loyal prince who dares not report obedience after someone steals the treasury Tianfu! It’s too much! Tell Liu Quan’s family that the brother-in-law of Grandma Lu’s brother-in-law is the 200 hectares of land outside Baoding Mansion. No matter how high or low the price is, all you need is a receipt. Ask Liu Quan to come over at night Come—I used to come in for seven days to say hello, but now I'm getting lazy." While Lianqing went out to fetch hot water, he leaned into Wu's ear and whispered something.Wu's face blushed, she got rid of the back of his hand, and helped clear the tea sets on the table.He Shen smiled to himself. He wanted to meet Liu Yong alone to find out, because in his mind, Liu Yong had no major quarrel with him, and he and Yong Yan got along well, and he was a close friend with Yong Yan's master Wang Erlie—but Liu Yong was not at the military plane, When I asked the little Sula supervisor on duty, I found out that Agui, Liu Yong and Ji Yun had both gone to Yuqing Palace, and they said that Taiwan sent another report.Everyone went to pull him down alone, and He Shen felt a sense of loss, and could only regret that he was late, but he also wondered, the Military Aircraft Department had never called a meeting by Yong Yan, and it was always someone's business who went back , what happened today?Thinking about it, he dragged his feet across the sunny path to Yuqing Palace to meet Yong Yan. "You are the only one missing!" Yong Yan looked refreshed, and said when he saw He Shen, "We all know that the four counties in Taiwan have been recovered. Last night, Huang Ama was so happy that he had three cups of old Yuhuchun! Sit down, we Let's discuss how to deal with the aftermath." He Shen saw that Yong Xuan was also there besides Ah Gui, Ji Yun and Liu Yong, and said with a smile, "The eighth master is here too." I would like to say hello, and Yong Xuan smiled and raised the plain paper fan in her hand and said: " No courtesy, no courtesy! The Imperial Academy has to write an article, the college students of the Imperial College also have to have a congratulatory letter, and the Ministry of Rites also has my share. This happy event can be done without me, Minister Wang of the Military Aircraft Department?" Yong Yan also smiled when he said it , but said: "Mynah, you sit too. This is a happy event for Bohai to celebrate the joy of the world. It is a matter of the Ministry of Rites to welcome the Fukang'an army back. Now I want to discuss with you. It was because the Taiwanese officials failed to keep their responsibilities. The other thing is to deal with the aftermath—is Fukang’an got a deal today?” He suddenly turned his face and asked Agui. Agui and the others sat in a row next to the low table, drinking tea and smiling, listening to Yong Yan asking himself, he hurriedly leaned over and replied: "Two copies were sent urgently at 600 li today. Haven't opened them yet." He held the two in both hands. The letter sealed with sealant was sent up. "Oh, so thick?" Yong Yan took it over and looked at it, weighed it, carefully cut it open, thought about it, handed it to Yong Xuan, and said, "Brother, please read this one first." He cut a copy and handed it to Heshen, "This is the aftermath brochure. If you want money, you can read it first." Two" frowned and pondered for a while, then suddenly smiled, and said, "Xiaolan, how many people are there in Taiwan? You probably read Fujian's "Fang Zhi Tong Lan." "Well, I can't remember this in detail." Seeing him laughing, Ji Yun was a little puzzled, holding a big cigarette pot in one hand and smoking it violently, and said in a deep voice, "The statistics in the fifty-sixth year of Kangxi was 12,000 people. , Now in the past 70 years, the population has multiplied, and there are about 300,000 immigrants from the mainland." He Shen said: "That's the number, the fourth master Fu needs 1.7 million, and the average per person is 1.7 million. Six taels is not enough, it should be placed in the interior, it is the income of small rich people.” Yong Yan naturally understood what he meant when he heard it, but he also felt that Fu Kang’an’s hands and feet were too big, and the rewards of grace were always too extravagant.He pondered for a while, but Ji Yun was looking at the book carefully, and said with a smile: "My father and Hegong didn't read it carefully! There are many things to talk about, not only about food relief, but also about farming, allowing the families of mainland soldiers to move to Taiwan Land reclamation; second, rural Baojia needs to be rebuilt, and the government borrows money to buy agricultural tools, not only rice, cane, potato, and millet, but also water conservancy, planting mulberry and hemp, and introducing inland looms; the third is relief, with an average of one, two, three, four cents per household Four pennies, Fu Siye calculates that it will take two years to create peace in the whole territory, eliminate the gap between the aborigines and immigrants, and another two years to recover and revitalize the economy. Not only will there be no supply from the mainland, but Taiwan will also pay 100,000 silver per year." He calculated one by one. , "This is the benefit of all ages. The Fourth Master Fu planned carefully, and he will personally supervise the implementation in Fujian and Taiwan. I think this amount is realistic. If the implementation is not enough, the imperial court should subsidize more." He explained in such detail that everyone was fascinated by it, and even Yong Xuan patted his palm with his fan bone and pondered.He Shen's eternal disposition is never against the public, and he had already smiled brightly and said: "Such a great thing, the court will naturally make it come true, please give permission from the fifteenth and eighth masters, and let me do it after the decree!" "This one is for murder." Yong Yan pointed at the memorial in his hand and said, "It doesn't sound so peaceful. One is Governor Chang Qing, Admiral Huang Shijian and Ren Chengen, and Chief Soldier Chai Daji. Now Taiwan is roughly determined , We must be held accountable for causing the catastrophe and falling into Taiwan. To rectify the business discipline of the banner camp and green camp stationed in Taiwan, Fukang'an will take them into action." Four red-capped officials are going to be killed at once, and among them, Chai Daji is still the Duke!Such ruthlessness shocked everyone's hearts.Governor Chang Qing is not only filial in front of He Shen on weekdays, but also pays a lot of money during New Year's festivals. Even Agui Jiyun and Liu Yong's office are always diligent and considerate, taking care of public and private affairs, and they are very popular with each other , now suddenly wants to kill, is all unbearable.Although Ren Chengen and Huang Shijian didn't have such a big face, they were acquainted with Agui from the Ministry of War and the Military Aircraft Department, and their Manchurian masters were Prince Cheng's Mansion and Prince Gong's Mansion, and they got along well with Yongxuan, even if they killed a dog. It is embarrassing to have to look at the owner. After a long silence, Yong Yan said: "The freezing of Taiwan's affairs did not happen in a day. It happened in this office, and it is not entirely the responsibility of this office. It is right to be a warning. Killing like this will cause panic elsewhere.” "I think you can ask the emperor for the original play." He Shen pursed his lips and said calmly, "This matter should be judged by the emperor." Yong Xuan smiled at the side and said: "Now Fukang'an's excerpts are not played. One book at a time? Like this, the emperor may not carefully screen out life-related matters, and if we approve it, isn’t it because we made a mistake?” He wanted to say that Qianlong was tired of governing, and Qianlong couldn’t judge things that mattered to human life. After reading several volumes, the words were vague, but still generally understood.But He Shen said: "There is also the Ministry of Rites. According to the eight proposals, you can also pay the crime money to redeem it." Yong Yan could hear clearly that He Shen wanted to take a job as a favor, so he kept silent for a while and asked Agui, "What do you think?" "Eight Discussions have regulations on reductions and exemptions, such as relatives, nobles, merits." Agui said, "The emperor must ask the opinions of the fifteenth and eighth masters. Since He Shen has an established law, why don't you just talk about it?" He Shen Conscious that Ah Gui revealed his own thoughts with a single sentence, he felt slightly embarrassed under the eyes of everyone, so he could only say: "Chang Qing is the governor, and there are provinces and roads below him. Taiwan is just one of the prefectures. As far as he is concerned, the source of the chaos does not lie in his position, let alone the crime of one county on the heads of two provinces. His crime is that when Taiwan's chaos erupted, he could not control and extinguish it, and he panicked and deployed the coastal garrison. This is not a capital crime, and he should be dismissed , The Ministry of Communications discussed crimes. Huang Shijian and Ren Chengen had lost the battle, and they feared the enemy and were unable to dispatch them. This is a capital offense. According to the Eight Discussions Regulations, they are the children of meritorious officials. Huang Shijian has no descendants, and Ren Chengen has no heirs. Therefore, there is also a reason for reduction. I don’t know about Chai Daji’s situation, but if he sticks to Zhuluo in Taiwan for a year, the merit can be offset, right?” Yongxuan listened to him while reading the notebook, put down his hand and said, "I think the only one Fukang'an wants to kill is Chai Daji. His crimes are three. Lin Shuangwen's incident started, and the situation in Changhua is urgent. Chai Daji brought He sent troops to inspect the city defense, and the county magistrate pleaded for the protection of the garrison. He feared the enemy and abandoned the city to return to the camp, causing Changhua to fall. This was the fuse of the chaos in Taiwan. The army and the people fought side by side and defended with one heart. Bagua Mountain is the key point of the situation in Taiwan, and it is close to Zhuluo. The commander-in-chief, arrogant and arrogant, and corrupt and silent among officials, is even worse than local civilian officials. He privately ordered the guards under Taiwan's jurisdiction to return to the mainland for trade and profit. There are no soldiers to transfer and no soldiers to transport. Although it is not without minor merit to stick to the isolated city, compared with the crimes committed, there is still more than enough to die." This is Fukang'an's generous statement and detailed explanation in the notebook. The truth and facts are very detailed. The tone was also decisive, and Yongxuan spoke in a heavy tone, and when everyone listened, they all felt chills from the bottom of their hearts.As Yong Xuan said, a wry smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "This is indeed another reason. After all, he is the general soldier of Taiwan!" "That's it, let's summarize our opinions to the emperor, and let the destiny decide!" Yong Yan also felt that Chai Daji was too wronged, but why should the ministers in the capital refute Fu Kang'an regarding Taiwan affairs thousands of miles away?He had no choice but to sigh and said, "Someone has to be responsible!" Liu Yong had already vaguely heard about Fu Chai's grievances for many years, biting his lower lip and thinking, there is no reason to accuse Fu Kang'an of reporting personal grievances.It's the fifteenth elder brother of the emperor, so why doesn't he have disputes with Fu Kang'an?This was an inexplicable mess, so I had to say: "It's better to hand over the four of them to the Ministry for discussion, and it would be better to make a survey after screening." If he can deal with Fukang'an, he can't take care of himself, but he doesn't feel comfortable going on with the topic. He just said: "It seems that Fukang'an is not only capable of fighting, but also has a good talent in martial arts. He wants to govern Taiwan well." He punished corruption and advocated honesty in Luoyang, and he still has a good reputation!" Ji Yun shook his head and said, "The one in Luoyang is not a lesson. Taiwan is indeed the way of economy." Yong Xuan is the least burdened to speak, laughing Said: "This talent is enough to enter the military affairs office to take care of civil affairs." As he was speaking, he saw Wang Ren coming over to pass the decree: "The emperor asked the fifteenth master and Ji Zhongtang and Zhongtang to go in." The three hurriedly stood up, bowed and agreed "Yes", and after Agui and the others also smiled and resigned, they followed Wang Ren to the Hall of Mental Cultivation.Go straight into the middle hall and enter the East Nuan Pavilion, seeing Qianlong half lying on the easy chair reading a book, Huaichun standing beside him serving tea, all three of them knelt down to pay their respects. "Oh, you're here?" Qianlong listened to them, put the "Poetry Notes in the Yinxiang Room" on the table, sat up straight, and said with a smile, "I just sent someone to the military plane. It was said that you were meeting at Yuqing Palace What kind of meeting is it?" Seeing Qianlong looking at him and talking, He Shen hurriedly said, "It's about Taiwan. Yesterday's memorial of the meritorious servicemen was submitted to Yu Lan, and today's discussion is—" He didn't finish , Ji Yun interjected: "There is no meeting in Yuqing Palace. Everyone has something to ask the fifteenth master, and the eighth master also went to one place, and the other one discussed Taiwan affairs." Because he briefly relayed what everyone said just now to Qianlong. Qianlong sat with his beard twisted, listened quietly, with a smile on his face, and said: "He will cure Taiwan in four years. Not only will he not need supplies from the court, but he will also have to pay taxes. This ambition is very commendable. Fighting Taiwan is martial arts. , This is Wenzhi, and Fu Heng can be said to have a queen! He Shen came in yesterday and said that the total military expenditure was 11 million taels. He said that it was like Fukang'an, and he would be poor in a few years. I asked him, the island of Taiwan will Buy one, the imperial court offered 100 million, and asked He Shen if he could buy it?——This is a great achievement, a great cause, and a great achievement! Talking about so many details! Yongyan, how do you think Fukang'an should be rewarded?" "It's still Huang Ama's opinion." Yong Yan said.He was jealous of Fukang'an being rewarded for his meritorious service, but He Shen was reprimanded and felt satisfied.With a smile on his face, he said: "I have discussed with Ji Yun, he is already a first-class duke, and he can't be the son of Baylor. He has no title to be a duke. Can you reward the county king's salary? Five Dynasties?" Qianlong smiled and said, "This is a feat that is not rewarded, and it is a taboo for officials. Ji Yun, isn't it?" Ji Yun felt startled, not knowing what Qianlong meant, so he sat up straight for a while, cupped his hands and replied, "I have never had a master who has exhausted his bow and bow in my Qing Dynasty." Yong Yan also looked at Qianlong suspiciously, but Did not dare to ask questions. "Confer the king of the county." Qianlong said firmly, "Fu Kang'an's credit should have been crowned king long ago, but there is no precedent for the established rules and regulations. I set a rule here. Yong Yan, you have to remember that you must have this kind of mind. Courage. The relatives and nobles of Manchuria in future generations are indeed worthy of great achievements, and they must be given enough titles, so as not to lose the enterprising spirit of scholars." Both Yong Yan and Ji Yun were stunned!Since the founding of Shunzhi, Kangxi eradicated the chaos of San Francisco, there have been many wars, and there have been many famous generals who have made meritorious service, and no one has been crowned king!Why did Qianlong suddenly grant such a great favor? "This matter should have been done when Fukang'an entered Dajianlu to curb Britain's covetousness in Tibet." Qianlong said, "Shunkang and I are the masters of the creation, and Yongzheng and I are the masters of the success. It is necessary to create, and to maintain success is based on creation, so I have devoted myself to creating Shiquan martial arts. Ji Yun, do you really think that I am just whitewashing the peaceful and prosperous world?" Ji Yun sat solemnly, seemingly calm and composed, but in fact there was no such violent shock in his heart anymore, that strong shock caused his heart to beat and his blood pulsed.He originally thought that Qianlong was old and was so confused that he only knew how to care for his spirit for the rest of his life, but unexpectedly he was Jiang Guizhi, who was old and spicy!The old man Shiquan is just whitewashing, Shiquan martial arts - he is constantly operating this huge state machine, all in order to keep it from rusting, and to enhance the harmony between the upper and lower levels, and to fill this vitality! ...He couldn't figure it out for a while, and then he said after a moment of stupefaction, "Flowing water doesn't rot, and Hu Shu isn't stupid." "You have a clear mind, and your academic knowledge is unmatched!" Qianlong said, "You have to keep adding firewood, so that the fire can be passed on from generation to generation. How many kings with different surnames are raised in Fengtian? If you make meritorious service, you will be crowned king and raise them." , Contribute to the country if you have something to do, and support it if you have nothing to do. Whose solution is this?" "Back to the emperor!" Ji Yun was so excited that his breath was a little short, and he bowed and replied, "It's the system of Guangwu Liu Xiu of Han Dynasty, which is called 'rewarding nobles for merit, and assigning talents for one's job'." He said, "It is to use high positions and generous salaries to support meritorious soldiers, but you can't reward positions and do errands after you have made meritorious service. The two cannot be confused. Even if Fukang An was named king, he would not be given fiefs or military power. .” "Five hundred households will receive the benefice," Qianlong said with a smile, "Fifty royal guards." Now Yong Yan also understood, and said with a smile: "Huang Ama, the marquis has five hundred households, why don't we be more generous? Let's give it to fifteen hundred households!" "Oh, I'm getting old." Qianlong stroked the top of his white forehead and sighed, "Sometimes it's clear and sometimes it's forgotten, it's just what you said, so do it." At this time, Ji Yun knew that Qianlong had a deep sense of self-knowledge , Because of the way: "such a big event, the world must be breastfeeding. The elderly over sixty years old will be divided into a string of money, and two catties of wine and meat. Last time there was an order to amnesty the world. Reduced treatment. Yesterday there was another decree that this item was eliminated, but Enke was added. Please ask the emperor to decree whether the two decrees are parallel. But if they want to be parallel, additional funds must be allocated..." "You find Heshen for this, by He came to plan and transfer." Qianlong smiled brightly, "So it was two decrees? I forgot." Only then did Yong Yan talk about punishing Chang Qing and others for causing chaos and suppressing ineffectiveness. He presented Fu Kang'an's memorial with both hands, and said, "Please read it." Qianlong took the two thick memorials and handed them After flipping through it, he put it down, and said with a helpless wry smile: "Such a long article, with small characters, I can no longer read it carefully. Rewards can be done according to Fukang'an, and punishments should be stern. All criminals Xie came to Beijing, you will interrogate yourself, and you also have to listen to their arguments. Taiwan is only a rough decision now. The first priority is to get Lin Shuangwen and pass the decree to Fukang'an. It is best to go to Beijing to Mingzheng Dian. There are several places in the mainland such as Zhili, Shandong, Huguang, Sichuan, and Guangxi. There are still a lot of troublemakers from cult bandits, Tianli religion, and Tiandi congregation. They can be used as an example. Son, you can deliver the decree without coming to see your majesty, and when you get Lin Shuangwen, he can escort the criminals to show off all the way! If his policy on governing Taiwan is feasible, I will hand it over to Li Shiyao." After Qianlong entered his octogenarian years, his speech was often inconsistent, but today his thinking is particularly clear.Yong Yan and Ji Yun were naturally happy, and after listening to his long speeches, he bowed down one by one.Ji Yun said with a smile: "I'm going to draw up the draft of the decree, please use the seal." Qianlong said: "Yong Yan will do it. This is just the general idea. You can discuss the details when you go down, and I will read the draft of the decree." Seeing that Qianlong had no other orders, the two got up and resigned.Qianlong felt that he had been sitting for too long, stood up and smiled and said, "Zhen's sitting skills are no longer useful. Let's take a break in the courtyard." Huaichun hurriedly put down the silver bottle in his hand, stepped forward and gently helped him out of the main hall . This is a beautiful spring in April, and the warm sun slanted down from the south wall to the west, bright and soft. The bronze cranes, tripods, toilet pendants, and distilled gold all over the courtyard were shining brightly, dazzling people's eyes. The gold skin has peeled off, and the mottled patina looks pleasant to the eyes.No trees can be planted in the palace. The spring breeze blows the fragrance of flowers outside the palace. Yes! Master, did you float over from the Imperial Garden?" "I can't tell." Qianlong shook his head and said, "Now the Old Summer Palace must be full of purples and reds...apple blossoms, pear blossoms...magnolia flowers? They all look like, but they are not..." He saw several delicate and tender plants in the shade of Zhaobi. Polygonum multiflorum and Petunia vine.He bent down and stared intently for a long time, stood up, called Bu Zhi, and told him: "No big trees are allowed in the palace, to prevent thieves from sneaking in. Such small grasses are born in spring, so don't eradicate them." Bu Zhi agreed Then he said with an apologetic smile: "He Shen has come in and is waiting outside the hanging flower gate!" Qianlong smiled and said, "Call in." As soon as the words were finished, He Shen had already entered the courtyard in small steps, Qianlong smiled and excused himself , asked: "What's the matter?" He Shen glanced at Qianlong, and said respectfully: "Zhejiang sent a note to please An, and there is also silver needed for reinforcement of the Qiantang River embankment. There is a folded piece inside. It is said that Dou Guangnai is dead. This is the person the master cares about. The slave came in. Play it." "The imperial court has lost another upright minister..." Qianlong wandered around, staring at the ground and looking up at the blue sky, as if he was telling God something, and seemed to be asking for an answer. After a long time, he said: "I wanted to leave it to my son , so I’m not of much use, it’s a pity... Ask Ji Yun to draw up a posthumous title. Please write to Fukang’an and take care of the family..." He seemed to remember something, and asked again, " Fukang'an wants to be crowned king, what do you think?" He Shen blinked, unable to figure out Qianlong's meaning for a while, and tentatively said: "I just heard about this slave. According to Fukang'an's merits, this is just and fair. I'm afraid it's not good for him if he gets a high seal and attracts people's taboo." .” "It's people who are taboo when you are in charge. That's why I never let him join the army." Qianlong sighed lightly, "This is God's will... What can I do?" After speaking, his thoughts came back leisurely, and he said with a smile, "Remember what I told you, Taiwan's affairs are safe and secure, and we must prepare for the Zen seat. You are Marshal Zhao Gong, and you are the only one who begs you, and you are not begged. You must be more modest and rigorous." Good. If you are suspicious of others, you will suffer a disadvantage when dealing with Jinger." This is what Qianlong would order every time he summoned privately alone. He Shen had already heard his ears full, and still replied with a smile: "Slave, please remember! - Fukang'an said in the booklet that he would introduce mulberry to Fujian. Hemp, hemp, and tea trees have come to Taiwan, and he has to make oolong tea in Taiwan as a tribute to the master, and he will stay in Fujian, Taiwan for four years, and he will bring a basket of tea to the master himself!" "How do you know Fukang'an!" Qianlong laughed, "He has all the skills in civil and military affairs, he has a big heart, and he is careful about things. He is not in a hurry to return to Beijing, and he has the intention to avoid trouble. He can't stay there in Taiwan. For many years, just inland, such as Wuhan, Kaifeng, Luoyang is good, wherever there is something to do-it’s good.” After thinking about it, he said, “Taiwan oolong tea, I really want to try it. You write to Li Shiyao .” "Those...slaves remember." Qianlong's decree was sent out in the court the next day. Although Taiwan was roughly determined, the city was already in the hands of the Qing army, and the rebel militia was dispersed.The imperial court ordered to promote the suppression, and Fukang'an was in the capital city of Taiwan to command the mopping up. He tried his best to lay down a town and a township in the front, and set up Baojia in the back. Fifty-three years later, Lin Shuangwen was finally found in Datieliao.The Shrimp Bone Club and the Hehuan Club sent out troops to attack, and selected hundreds of soldiers from the training camp to enter the mountain as internal responses. After fighting for three days, they captured Lin Shuangwen's "courtiers" Chen Chuan, He Youzhi, Lin Qin, Wu Wanzong, and Lai Qilong.Knowing that Lin Shuangwen had fled to Lao Quqi, which was the last case of Lin Shuangwen, they searched and suppressed in two ways, the north and the south, and found Lin Shuangwen and his general Zhuang Datian in a pile of waste sugar cane bagasse.So far, the uprising that shocked the government and the public has been completely extinguished. Chai Daji was dead like this.Because Fu Kang'an's memorial wanted to kill four people, the officials of the Ministry of Punishment and Military Affairs clearly understood that "Fu Siye hates the most" is Chai Daji.Needless to say, Chang Qing, the governor only has "indirect responsibility". "Childless" follows the principle of succession and extinction, and will not punish those who commit ten evils.Only Chai Daji can't take one of them. He is guilty of losing the land if he defends the city.The Ministry of Xie Jing came down to discuss it in a dignified manner, Chang Qing was dismissed from office, and the other three were ordered to be executed.A year later, Huang and Ren were exempted from the judgment of the situation.Chai Daji is doomed.On September 14th in the autumn of the fifty-third year of Qianlong, Chai Daji, who was detained in Shuntian Mansion, was escorted to Chai City by the criminal officer for execution.It was a sunny day this day, suddenly thick clouds and thunderbolts accompanied by heavy rain.It was a stormy season, so naturally some people talked about it in the streets, saying that Chai looked up at the sky when he was about to be executed, calling him innocent, "Yong Shuai (Chang Qing) is not guilty, and those who fear war and lose their city and land are not guilty, but I, Chai, is guilty of defending an isolated city." No punishment! What a fair day!" The executioner also shed tears, and said: "Master Chai, I can only do my job more neatly - who told you to be an official and have no one in the court, and you don't have a good father?" Later generations有议及此事，以为福康安诸般军务百无一失，收复台湾完全金瓯厥功甚伟。若论胸襟度量，比之乃父傅恒相去就远了。但此事若如乾隆皇帝清明在躬，不肯糊涂杀人，如何有这种颠倒是非之举？ 当下福康安封王诏旨发到，三军将士踊跃欢腾，自海兰察以下，贺老六、王吉保及待卫戈什哈无不弹冠相庆。全军放假三天、牛酒犒劳都安排在福州城郊，全城烟花火炮爆仗连放三日，缙绅耆老盈门恭贺，总督衙门设八十桌满汉全席，与筵人员全都是流水出入，六十岁以上老人不但“恭与荣典”，还另外赏有酒、肉、香烛之类，俱各乐得欢天喜地。只苦了李侍尧，忙得人仰马翻，招呼了里边应酬外边，吃过了喜酒再吃贺酒，跑过了城里又到城外……他自己也是古稀老人了，一场忙碌下来竞累倒了。福康安在郊外大营也是各营串忙，安排水陆师驻扎营地防务，又送广东广西湖湘川各地抽调来的军士回营，颁赐奖银抚慰伤号，弄得晕头转向。听得李侍尧病卧，心里更是张忙，委了海兰察提调营务，自带了刘保琪马祥祖一千人赶往总督衙门探病。早有戈什哈在仪门外，直接引他们到西花厅来见李侍尧。却见李侍尧身上裹着一床夹被，坐在安乐椅上正在吃药。 “你唬了我一跳！”福康安一进门便笑道，“我以为还不知怎么不得了呢！看来不相干的。” 李侍尧放下药碗，笑了笑，意思还要起身相迎，福康安抢一步上去又扶他坐了，说道：“我封了这么个王，名分上是高了，心里拿你作朋友看，你还是你我还是我嘛！你跟着阿玛打黑查山那辰光，我还在保姆怀里呢！我心里看你是我的老叔叔呢！”李侍尧看了看跟福康安的人，一笑说道：“原来是你们，返谈店里的老人儿。都是好相识了，请随意坐，坐嘛！”福康安道：“戈什哈们都出去。保琪、同济、祥祖坐！”三人这才微笑着坐了。李侍尧摇头道：“我确实有病，也真的太累了——比打仗累啊……”他轻轻咳嗽几声，又自失地一笑。 福康安没有听出他的弦外之音，安慰道：“不妨的，也就这一阵子，过去就完了，你比我阿玛身子骨硬朗，好好将息就成。我在条陈里说的几件大事，单台湾府里办不来的。可惜朝廷不许我在福州，不然我们一同做起来看！”说着一叹，又诧异道，“你好像还有什么话？保琪他们也不是外人，若不方便，请他们回避，你畅开来谈谈。” “没有什么不方便的。”李侍尧道，“你在台湾，我们几个天天一处吃大锅饭办事，什么话不说？有病是真的，想说说话也是真的。单是身上累也还罢了，从骨头缝里累到心里，那滋味就难说了。” 福康安瞧瞧这个，看看那个，心中越发惊异不定，见几个人都若有所思含笑不语，恍然说道：“啊……我明白了！原来你们几个约好了的要诳我说话！”这几个人都是几经人世沧桑，电光石火中翻过筋斗来的人，都深沉得波澜不惊，只是微笑。刘保琪道：“制台没有约我们，可制台要说什么，我们心里有数。他大约要劝四爷激流勇退，他自己也要激流勇退的吧。” “我已经奉到廷谕。”李侍尧道，“要调到兵部任尚书，兼任理藩院掌院大学士。”说完又补了一句，“圣旨还没下，军机处和毓庆宫都是这个意思，也就是下个月的事儿罢。” 福康安不禁错愕，瞠目结舌说道：“如今这里百废待兴事积如山，不会的吧？谁来接印？” “大约是海宁。”李侍尧无所谓地说道。 “海宁？” 李侍尧笃定地点点头。 “不成！”福康安扫视一眼花厅，“他败坏福建吏治，发了财一走了之，我还要弹劾他呢！也好，我就在这里，等着他来！”还想说什么，目光一闪，收住了。又缓缓道：“又要下什么雨，吹什么风的，大刚放晴，老鳖就要反潭么！”刘保琪接着他的话音说道：“学生没住过返谈店，他们两个住过，”他用手指指惠同济笑道，“当初贾士芳推过格，返谈店还有五贵登科一场盛事，这倒不假。他们五人——曹锡宝气死，方令诚气疯，吴省钦连连升官，一个老鳖反潭，人人俱不得安。”马祥祖却道：“他们拉你同去看望钱沣，幸亏你犯了疟疾，就这样，你在贵阳三元宫一囚半年，你还指望着人来救你，你没有倒栽葱就是好的！” 福康安听他们说笑起初懵懂，他毕竟天分极高的人，倏地灵机一动已经明白：自己信任重用的人，不是傅府的老人就是与和坤作对的人！招降纳叛的一伙凑集在福建，干了一件惊天动地的伟业——这如何不招那些权倾朝野势倾天下的人疾忌！ !一时间想到他晋封为有清自三藩之后头一位功勋王爷，但觉脚下虚空得如万丈深渊，心也一下子直落下去，竟一时呆住了！良久，喃喃自语说道：“我辞了三次的，万岁爷知道我的心……” “想和四爷说的就是这件事。”李侍尧见刘保琪掏烟，自己也掏出烟斗，燃着了，慢吞吞说道，“我到北京其实就是荣养了，其实早年雄心壮志，这会子都冰消瓦解。老了死了完事儿。四爷，你如今封王，已经是特出恩典——就算皇上信任你，皇上可已经是近八旬的老人了——您想想，跟着您的这一群，真正能打仗的，无论两广、川、湖、湘调来的，还都是您带过的兵……清军官场败坏，其实营务废弛军纪也败坏，别的行伍一摧就垮，惟独您的兵无坚不摧所向无敌！王爷，恕我直言，若是别的将军，十个有十个也完了，若不是皇上信任，不赏之功硬赏你一个王爵，如此风标崖岸，谁能承受得住？” 这是透彻入骨的警醒语了，福康安早已听得身心一阵阵发寒，他的心随着李侍尧说话驰得更远，想到傅门三世荣贵、忠诚报国军法治府；想到颙琰多次说他“豪奢挥霍”，兵部人私议他养“骄兵悍将”；想到傅家奴才一个个都成了将军、副将；想到每当父亲冥寿，来赴筵的将军黄灿灿一片都穿黄马褂、马鞭子放得一排排的威风贵盛场面……他一阵胆怯，又一阵背若芒刺，冷汗已浸了出来。早年乾隆与母亲的事他多年来也多少听得一点宫里含糊谣传，这种事为子为臣不但不能信，更不敢想，更不必存这念头了。此刻一下子都明白：这些知友比自己清醒，看得准而且看得远！思量着，深长叹息一声：“我一生耻于人言倚赖父祖功名博取功名，仗自己三尺剑立功名于当今，垂竹帛于后世。其实父亲一直在庇佑着我，皇上一直在呵护着我，我还以为是自己的能耐。皋陶，既明白了我就有办法。” 四个人都注目着福康安不言语。 “我要上表请旨，”福康安脸色异常苍白，声音也微微有点颤抖，“父丧未除，我就去山东剿贼，没有为父守灵，有亏人子之道。归还兵权，解散府兵，举家为老公爷守丧三年，然后我去奉天养病。我的王爵与开国诸东来之王有别，是守成有功封的。因此从我儿子开始要递降，直到平常庶人为止。多年征战，我的腰部受损，也有了痰喘的病，也该退下去休养了……”他不胜其力地又咳嗽了两声，才止定喘息。 几个人原都是怕福康安知进不知退，骄纵傲上招来奇祸，没想到他一下子就被刺瘪了，瘪得颓唐无气，都觉得有点意外，正面面相觑，福康安又道：“其实你们这些活我心里想了不止十遍了。我的想头只要我打胜仗，每战必捷，朝廷用得着我就无妨，再就是人善遭欺，盛气凌人些只怕那些乌龟王八还怕些……唉，错了，从头到尾都不对头啊……” “王爷，没想到你心境也是苦。”惠同济说道，“但我还是觉得你弯子转得太急。你一辈子都颐指气使豪气干云的，就有这想头也要慢慢来。你并无危险也没有把柄在人手中，福四爷还是福四爷嘛！”李侍尧笑道：“小惠说的是，是历练了的人了。人若改常不病即亡，所以你不能变得太快。” 福康安此刻感念四人友情真是铭心刻骨，怅然一笑说道：“我都依诸位了，这么说还有事可干。海宁我不能让他再来坏台湾，要上折阻他来闽。皋陶也不要急着回北京，把我折子里说的几件大事办好再说！”他仰起身来：“湖广不是又有天地会闹事么？我去坐镇武昌，敉平了再回北京，先见见十五爷推诚谈心，一步步退下来。”接着，扳着指头数述台湾风土人情，何处可以植茶树，哪里可以栽桑麻，彼地能建市场，此方适宜建作坊……一直说到晚饭后又秉烛夜谈，也不骑马，竞打轿回营不提
