Chapter 43 Section 43

In Shiyuan, King Chun is also summoning his cronies and secret merchants, and he should make a separate offer.The situation is clearly there, the emperor is in charge, and nothing will change, the only exception is King Chun, who can no longer manage projects from the navy to Sanhai like now. Therefore, the decree of returning to the government can also be regarded as an expression of unwillingness for King Jin to ask about political affairs again.If this is the case, I should not ask for a delay in returning to power, but once the emperor took charge, he had to hand over all the errands, and he really couldn't give up.His ambition in life is to follow the ancestors of martial arts and restore the imperial majesty and majesty at the beginning of entering the customs. Now that the navy has just been established, and the flag battalion is also being completely reorganized. At the moment when it is in full swing, it is said that because his son is the emperor, he will rule on great affairs , I can't carry out my life's ambitions smoothly, and I can't be reconciled when I think about it.

He is just not reconciled, but those who work with him are not at ease.The first one was Lishan. When he got the news, he felt uneasy if he saw that the iceberg was about to fall.I really want to find Li Lianying to find out the details, but because the palace gate has been locked and there is no traffic, I can only rush to Shiyuan and meet King Chun. ※※※ Chun Wang just approached Sun Yuwen and Xu Gengshen to discuss how to make a discount?Hearing the report from the guards, Li Shan came to see him, which reminded him of one thing, the funds of the Navy Yamen were diverted to the Sanhai Project, once it was handed over, how would the account be calculated?

"I won't hide it from you two. The navy has lent a lot of funds to Fengchenyuan. These accounts are not for outsiders. We must find a way to not embarrass the emperor." Chun Wang was clumsy with words, but the last sentence was said clumsily and cleverly.What he meant was that if the details of Xiuyuan's diversion of naval funds were known to the outside world, there must be an official to speak.And this is handled according to Yi's order. The emperor can neither disobey his benevolent orders to investigate the matter, nor can he ignore the officials' corrections. Isn't it a dilemma?

Sun Yuwen and Xu Gengshen exchanged glances silently, and then Xu Gengshen said: "The easiest way is for the prince to still manage the navy. To be honest, the prince really has to take care of it, otherwise there is someone who can surpass Li Zhongtang Of?" "Uncle Xing is right!" Sun Yuwen echoed, "Your Majesty, there is no need to avoid this petty suspicion." "I don't think it's correct," Chun Wang said, "It seems that I can't please myself. If I copy and distribute my notebook, it won't look good on paper." "That's easy." Xu Gengshen immediately said, "Just add an attached sheet! The original copy is sent to the military plane, and the attached sheet is removed. It's fine if you don't send it."

King Chun thought for a while, and agreed: "Then it will take your troubles, and please draw up a draft for me here. The attached sheet only says that it will be handed over when the navy completes one." "Uncle Xing, please write the pen." Sun Yuwen said, "I have already drawn up a public report for princes and ministers. I am afraid that I will not be able to get rid of my thoughts, and it is not good if the meaning is serious." "Any one is fine." King Chun got up and said, "Excuse me for a moment, come as you go." Chun Wang withdrew to another room to meet Li Shan.As soon as we met, I told him that I decided to still be in charge of the navy after taking charge of the government.This was a reassurance, Li Shan heaved a sigh of relief, his demeanor suddenly changed, and his mind became more flexible.

"That should be the case. But I would like to ask Seventh Lord for instructions. When it comes time to request orders for all engineering affairs in the future, should I request orders from the Empress Dowager or the Emperor?" "Ah! That's right. I didn't think of it." King Chun said in a low voice, "Of course I can't ask the emperor for instructions." "Especially for matters in the palace, you should ask the empress dowager for orders." Li Shan continued his words, "It's like everyone else. The young master has grown up, so he naturally has to take over foreign affairs, but the old lady has to listen to the housework. Qi Ye, what do you think of my analogy?"

It's a good example.King Chun recalled the scene when he was a child. At that time, the old queen mother was Renzong's concubine Jin Niuhulu, and Renzong ascended the throne and was named a noble concubine.Xuanzong's biological mother, Empress Xiaoshu, died in the second year of Jiaqing, and the Supreme Emperor ordered Niu Hulu to succeed him to the middle palace by imperial edict.Xuanzong ascended the throne and was honored as Empress Dowager Gongci.This empress dowager is stern, although she is Xuanzong's stepmother, she is like a strict father. Xuanzong will always follow orders in matters of the palace, and occasionally disobeys benevolent orders. rise.

Thinking of his grandmother, King Chun immediately had some thoughts, hurriedly returned to the original place and said: "Uncle Xing, slow down, slow down, let's say it like this..." When he made it clear, Xu Gengshen read the half-drawn manuscript carefully, then added another paragraph, and changed the reason at the same time. Originally, he only talked about governing the country. Respect and draw up the key points of Qi governance, and pray for kindness." "Well said!" King Chun praised it after seeing it, and then read the main text. The previous paragraph is about the merits of the Empress Dowager Chen. Xu, I have suffered a great cause, and I have encouraged my ministers to ask me to do my best to listen to the government." With a slight turn of the pen tip, I came to "Since Guangxu Xinsi", which was the seventh year of Guangxu, after the sudden collapse of Empress Ci'an, " My empress dowager is concerned about diligence and benefit", and she specifically complimented Empress Dowager Cixi.

The main meaning of this passage is to suggest that the emperor should wait for the emperor to reach the age of 20 before discussing "care of common affairs".The following uses the further tone of "restraining ministers and more pleasers" to talk about the way of family governance in the internal governance, saying that after the emperor's wedding in the future, all ceremony scales will inherently depend on the empress dowager's teaching and warning, even if "ordinary events in the inner court are not allowed." Less relaxation of the front emblem".The next two sentences are very concrete.

These two sentences are: "The officials and fools think that after returning to the government, they must always follow the current regulations. For all events, please ask for the decree first, and then hear about it before the emperor." The joyful face is free from the drama of the palace." Finally, he specifically stated: "This is not like a minister who grew up in the palace, who cannot know and dare not speak." Xu Gengshen, who wrote the book, can really embody the grievances in the king's heart, grasping the key to the overall situation.The words were very straightforward and powerful. On the one hand, it broke the most subtle and tortuous doubts in the Empress Dowager Cixi's heart-the deep fear that King Chun would seize power as the "overlord".

"Forever according to the current regulations, all matters should be ordered first," which means that if there is a "supreme emperor", it is the Empress Dowager Cixi who lives in the imperial garden, not Prince Chun who lives in Shiyuan. On the other hand, it is clearly stipulated that the emperor can at most intervene in state affairs and cannot intervene in "household affairs."In this way, whenever there is an incident of palace construction, you can directly ask for Yi's order, regardless of the emperor's intentions.
