Chapter 129 Second History of the Palace Outside the Qing Dynasty (3-1)

It was three o'clock in the afternoon when we arrived at Prince Chun's Mansion.Although the days were short in late autumn, and there were still two hours before dark, King Chun specially led the way and accompanied Li Hongzhang to see the beauty of the towers and forests. This Prince Chun's Mansion is no longer the Prince Chun's Mansion in Taiping Lake, where Xilin Taiqingchun, a poetess from the Eight Banners, and Bei Zi Yihui sang and sang.The old mansion is the place where the current emperor was born, and it has naturally become a "hidden mansion" where the so-called "dragon dives into the abyss", and it is not suitable to live anymore.Therefore, in the early years of Guangxu, King Chun found a huge house in Shanzi Hutong, which was originally owned by a relative of He Shen, a powerful official in the Qianlong Dynasty.Once "Heshen fell and Jiaqing was full", the six relatives were lucky, and the family fell down quickly.Abandoned house and garden, the place is too big, no one dares to buy it, because they can't afford to repair it.

This is just right for King Chun. What he wants is a large place. He only spent 3,500 silver to buy the foundation site, but it cost more than ten times the house price to rebuild it. It took two or three years to start construction, and it was not until the spring of the eighth year of Guangxu that the title "Shiyuan" was completed. The main hall of Shiyuan is grand and spacious, and the three characters "Yi Shou Tang" come from the handwriting of King Gong.Among them is a plaque enshrined: "Xuan Praise the Seven Virtues", which is the imperial pen of the late emperor Mu Zong, and it was specially moved from the Taiping Lake mansion to enshrine it here.

There are two western-style buildings on the two wings of Yishou Hall, which are called "East Building" and "West Building". Xuan Pavilion". Along this bend of water, twists and turns to the east, is a rockery.There is "Wenyuan Pavilion" on the mountain, and "Fengyue Shuangqing Tower" at the foot of the mountain.Bypassing the rockery, there is a huge flat land, with many long pines planted, and a hall with thatched eaves, inscribed "Fusong Thatched Cottage".To the west across a small stream, across Banqiao, is a plum grove, with five couplets hidden in the middle, named "Hanxiang Pavilion".

Behind the "Hanxiang Pavilion" there is a winding path, shaded by white walls, and a corner of the red building, presumably it is the residence of the family members.At the end, turn to the east, there is a door with hanging flowers, push the door to enter, there is no other world, it is a water pavilion modeled on the "Three Pools Reflecting the Moon" in the West Lake, with nine curved rails and accessible in all directions.A banner written by King Chun himself hangs at the entrance, with the word "Tui'an" in the big book, which is actually a "signature room" for Yan Wang Yanjian's close staff.

Take a rest and have tea in Tui'an.Then I went back to the Hanxiang Pavilion and went west again. There was a "Painting Pavilion". The west of the pavilion was the end of Shiyuan. A little fun place". In addition, there are tower victories titled "Xuanchun", "Qinqiu", "Tiyun" and "Lanxia". Although Li Hongzhang has a strong waist, he is still an old man in sixties after all, so he can only pass by in a hurry or look at it from a distance. . After visiting the whole garden, King Chun hosted a banquet in his study "Tao Lu".This is not brevity, but sympathy, because sitting in the main hall, the prince's etiquette will be closed, and he will have to give way to his clothes. Wouldn't it make the guests suffer?There are seats in the study, just count and drink.There was only one accompanying guest, Beizi Yimo, the youngest son of Prince Hui Yimian.Most of the plaques in the garden were written by him. He is one of the closest cousins ​​of King Chun, and he was specially invited to accompany him, which means that Li Hongzhang should not be regarded as an outsider.

The host and the guest, surrounded by a marble-topped mahogany round table, formed a confrontational situation, with no distinction between upper and lower. Naturally, they talked about gossip, but there were also Yuedan characters.Chun Wang mentioned Zuo Zongtang and expressed disappointment in regret, while Li Hongzhang reported his grievances directly, talking about how Zuo Zongtang had a grudge with Zeng Guofan, and how he had a grudge with his close relative Guo Songtao.In order to fight for the territory of Guangdong, Zuo Zongtang did not hesitate to attack Guo Songtao, the governor of Guangdong, and protect his general Jiang Yili from taking over.

"So it's this grievance!" Chun Wang looked as if he had just woken up from a dream, "I heard people say that it was a misunderstanding caused by Ganoderma lucidum in Xiangyin Confucian Temple. So it's not!" "What?" Yimo asked, "It's a good thing to produce Ganoderma lucidum, why did you misunderstand it?" "I'm afraid I won't be able to fully explain it." King Chun said, "Does Shaoquan know about this case?" "It's the third year of Tongzhi..." In the third year of Tongzhi, Xiangyin Confucian Temple suddenly found a copy of five-color ganoderma, which caused a sensation.Soon after, Guo Songtao was ordered to be the governor of Guangdong. As soon as the good news arrived, Guo Songtao's younger brother Kun Tao, a writer, wrote a letter of congratulations, saying: "The Confucian temple produces mushrooms, which will endanger the prosperity of our family." Hearing this, Zuo Zongtang, who was awarded the title of Uncle Ke Jing by Hong Yang's merits, was very displeased.

He said: "Xiangyin really has auspicious auspiciousness, and it's because of me being a knight. What has it to do with his Guo family?" Wrote an "Ode to Ruizhi", describing Zuo Zongtang's achievements. "That's right! That's what I heard." King Chun said, "I asked Zuo Jigao face to face, and he smiled and didn't answer, which seemed to be tacit consent." "Zuo Jigao often acted like a hero to deceive others. It's just inconvenient to say it clearly." Li Hongzhang made an assertion: "Zuo and Guo are evil, and the music lies in Zuo, which is the public opinion of the world."

"Competing for wages for coming and going!" Yimo, who had an extremely heavy drinker, took a drink from Tao Ran, "It's better to ask for a living here." "Xinquan Beizi is a blessed man, with beautiful luxuries, and drinking and drinking. This kind of happiness is really enviable." Li Hongzhang turned to King Chun and said: "If Hongzhang has the temperament of Zuo Jigao, I am afraid that the seventeen provinces All the governors have been offended." "How do you say that?" "It's not for the salary! This can't be hidden from the prince. In the first year of Guangxu, the Ministry of Households announced that the Beiyang and South Ocean coastal defense funds were 2 million each year. In fact, they received less than 400,000 a year. The tariffs and likin assigned by the decree were paid by the provinces. I want to stop it. Cough!" Li Hongzhang shook his head and refused to say any more.

When it comes to this level, King Chun arouses endless thoughts, such as building a navy, increasing flag salaries, repaying foreign debts, and building a royal garden for the Queen Mother to take care of, spending a lot of money everywhere.Two years from now, the emperor will get married, and he will have to raise millions of silver for the wedding, where will he come from? His temperament is relatively straightforward and simple, his ambition is strong but his talents are inevitably short, so when he thinks of these difficult things, he will immediately look worried, and his interest in gossip will not be reduced a lot.

"Shaoquan!" King Chun wanted to be calm but couldn't calm down. It turned out that he had to talk about the business in advance after the meal and said: "Everything is urgent! If you want to build a navy now, even if you start a Beiyang branch first, It also requires a huge sum of money. In the future, it will be increased year by year, and the funds will be more and more. In terms of financial management, if there is no long-term stability strategy, it will be a big deal!" "My lord can see it, and Hongzhang thinks so too. The way to manage money is nothing more than throttling expenditure and increasing revenue. Yan Danchu comprehensively checked the name and reality, and tried his best to eliminate excesses. The level of throttling is entrusted to someone. As for the way to increase revenue, Hongzhang Er's brochure said it very clearly, if you think about it, the prince will still remember it!" Alcohol King can remember.Over the past month or so, all the plans for the navy have been based on Li Hongzhang's memorials, and King Chun can almost recite the original scriptures by heart. "You say, 'The way to open up sources of income should follow the Western approach, develop coal and iron, create railways, and promote business and government. The mines and iron are solid and rich, and the railways are indeed far-reaching benefits; but to attract investment and stock, the government has no funding; if Borrowing foreign money with light interest, although it is common in all countries, is astonished by the public sentiment. If it is not for the sage to preside over it, who would dare to break the public opinion and risk not doing it?' It doesn't matter, as long as it is beneficial to the country, there is nothing forbidden .However, far away water can’t save near fire, mines and railways can only be reaped after ten or eight years, so how can we raise millions of dollars in front of us?” This question caught Li Hongzhang's heart. He thought for a while, and slowly answered: "My lord still remembers that there was a discussion about printing banknotes in the original folder. In Western countries, banknotes are not only used in their own countries, but also in other countries. Why can’t the Qing Dynasty not print? If the Ministry of Households imitates the foreign method to print banknotes, and distribute them to the provinces of Haiphong every year at a rate of one million, the most important thing is that the income and expenditure are consistent. It is no different from cash in cash. When the credit is established, it can be used everywhere, and the benefits are beyond words!" "This...," King Chun said suspiciously, "isn't this the method of distributing treasure money in the past? I have talked to many people about this method, and the explanation has never been successful." "Yes, there has been no success in issuing treasure banknotes in the past dynasties. However, how can the banknotes issued by the bank in the north and the bank in the south work? The reason is that our banknotes are real. If we issue one thousand taels of silver, there will be one thousand taels of silver there. It’s like buying chips with money first in a game of gambling. You will be suspicious that you won’t be able to exchange chips for money after you gamble. If you issue banknotes, and if there are cash in there, your credit will naturally be good.” "Shaoquan!" Yimo laughed, "When you say it, I think of an allusion, just like Wang Jiefu wanted to turn Dongting Lake into fertile land." Li Hongzhang was taken aback for a moment, and after thinking about it, he remembered that the allusion mentioned by Yimo was actually the story of Liu Gongfu. This is a story that can be seen countless times in the notebooks of Song people, and Yimo also misremembered it.The original record: Wang Anshi loves to talk about things that benefit the country, and some villains agree and flatter him, saying that Liangshan is 800 miles away, and the water can be broken to form a field, which can produce great benefits.When Wang Anshi heard this suggestion, he was very happy, but after thinking about it, he had no doubts, where can the water be broken?At that time, Liu Gongfu, a first-class figure in Dongfang Shuo, was a guest, and answered Wang Anshi's words: "Beside Liangshan Po, another 800-mile-long water pool will be dug, which can accommodate the water that has been resolved." Wang Anshi laughed and did not talk about this anymore. suggested. Yimo quoted this allusion to mean: Since the money is there, why bother to issue banknotes?Of course Li Hongzhang understood, and he replied appreciatively: "Xinquan Beizi asked a good question! Banks issue banknotes, of course, they don't need to dig 800 miles to accommodate the water of Liangshan. When issuing banknotes of 10,000 taels of silver, there is no need to prepare for 10,000 taels of silver." , there is room for maneuvering. However, this is not issuing money indiscriminately, it is the use of one money for two money, and it is interest-free borrowing, which is not harmful to the people and beneficial to the country. It is the best calculation." "Shaoquan," Chun Wang said very attentively, "tell me more! I still can't figure out the reason behind it." "My lord, please think about it. If you issue a banknote of one tael of silver, you will receive one tael of cash. This tael of silver can be exchanged into British pounds. It can be used to order ships and buy guns with foreign countries. Wouldn't it be that one coin becomes two coins?" Use? This extra money is equivalent to borrowing from the people. The banknotes are like IOUs, but there is no need to pay interest. As for the common people, with this banknote, they can pay taxes on grain and buy firewood and rice. The silver is still one or two taels of silver, and the penny is not short, isn’t it harmful to the people and beneficial to the country?” "Ah! This is a good idea!" King Chun was very excited, "It is very troublesome to borrow foreign debts, and you have to guarantee and pay interest. If you issue 10 million taels of banknotes and exchange 10 million in cash, you will borrow for nothing. It’s a huge amount, and that’s fantastic.” "Yes!" Li Hongzhang said, "However, if the tens of millions of taels of silver are misused and squandered, it will be a huge debt. If it is used to mine and build railways, it will be used as profitable capital to make money." Come on, let’s add more capital, so that the interest will continue to increase, and in less than 20 or 30 years, our Qing Dynasty will be as prosperous and powerful as the Western countries!" King Chun was overjoyed when he heard this, and decided to talk about this wonderful financial plan.Li Hongzhang originally had a commentary post, which was drafted by Chief Taxation Secretary Hurd, and he had had several long talks with the general manager of HSBC Bank, Cameron. Just the first step. "Shaoquan," Chun Wang finally made a conclusion: "I would like to invite all colleagues from the Military Aircraft and General Administration to a meeting, and we will discuss three major issues: the navy, the railway, and the bank. What do you think?" "I have heard about the prince's ruling." Li Hongzhang said, "But foreign businessmen call it a bank, we should call it an official bank. To avoid confusion due to similar names." This is to dispel the doubts of defenders of morality, deliberately not using the name of a foreigner, King Chun understood, and said "yes" repeatedly.Then he asked again: "You always have to visit guests first these days, and the military plane and the General Administration have to be prepared. Maybe the superiors will summon one more time. I see the date of the meeting, it doesn't have to be too urgent. Twenty-eight, okay? " "Yes! Twenty-eight." Li Hongzhang said, "The meeting is presided over by the prince, so it is natural to let the prince decide the date." When he returned to Xianliang Temple, Li Hongzhang did not go into the bedroom, but went to the hall where the shogunate gathered and handled affairs, and reviewed the documents and telegrams.While watching, a ruling was made at the same time, and the shogunate drafted and issued separately according to his will.Finally, I read the list of visitors starting tomorrow. There was a long piece of red paper with no fewer than a hundred people. Li Hongzhang frowned when he saw it, picked up a pen, and smeared heavily, cutting out half of it. ※ ※ ※ On the list of visiting guests, the first one is Linggui, a scholar of Wuyingdian University.He is the biography of Zeng Guofan. In the twenty-seventh year of Daoguang Ding Wei, he was the deputy capital censor as the "Zhi Gong Ju" in the general examination. Although he was an "outer curtain official", he was also regarded as the teacher of this subject as usual.Li Hongzhang is a member of Dingwei Hanlin, a member of the first class, and the most important teacher, so he was the first to worship Linggui, and prepared a gift of one thousand taels of silver, with a door bag of two hundred taels of silver. Students pay homage to the teacher, enter through the side door according to the rules, and use the middle door to exit, which is called "soft entry and hard exit".But Li Hongzhang has both a title and a chief assistant, so the so-called "extremely talented minister".Linggui's house opened the middle door to welcome them, and first the butler came to the sedan chair to return, "No need to surrender", the big sedan chair was carried all the way to the dripping eaves of the second hall, which became "hard entry and hard exit". Linggui was too sick to get out of bed.The one who greeted him in front of the sedan chair was Linggui's son Fuhui, who was young and immature. Fortunately, Linggui's son-in-law Ronglu took care of him, and he was very organized.After exchanging pleasantries, Li Hongzhang asked about the teacher's condition. "Jiayue's illness was originally asthma, which would happen every autumn, but this year it's very severe and out of control." "Oh," Li Hongzhang asked, "Who did you ask to read it?" "Xue Fuping, please." Rong Lu shook his head, "He said: It's not going to be saved! It's just procrastinating." "Ah!" Li Hongzhang said with a slight sigh, "I'll go see the teacher!" "Meeting each other will only add to the sadness. Zhongtang doesn't need to work!" This is a humble word, of course Li Hongzhang has to read it, "Brother Baitou," he said, "One side is the other. Zhonghua, please lead the way." So when they arrived at Linggui's sick bed, the white-headed junior brother looked at each other with his hands in tears, and Rong Lu insisted to invite Li Hongzhang to the living room.I could have said goodbye here, and even though the visitor list has been cut in half, there is still a long list behind, so I can't sit still for a long time.But for the sake of Ronglu, Li Hongzhang decided to seize this opportunity of unintentional encounter and hang around for a while. "After thinking about it, everything is prepared." "Yes!" Rong Lu took out a piece of paper from his pocket, "The draft of the leftover is ready, please consider it in Zhongtang." This is also a kind of "entertainment", and because Li Hongzhang has never been an examiner in his life, he is most interested in reading articles from others, so he actually put on his glasses, brought a pen and inkstone, and went to his desk to carefully revise Linggui's manuscript.This took another half an hour. After Rong Lu thanked him.When mentioning Li Hongzhang's trip, there must be some decent compliments.Li Hongzhang didn't doubt it, he didn't show modesty, and when Rong Lu finished speaking, he suddenly asked, "Zhonghua, are you Geng this year?" "Thirty-eight this year." "It's a pity!" Li Hongzhang shook his head, "I'm a pity for the country. I'm in the prime of life, how can I let you have a leisurely time? I admire everything about King Chun's work. I can't compliment you on this matter alone." Rong Lu smiled casually, "Being a sinful body, one should contemplate behind closed doors." He said, "As for Qiye's support and support towards me, I really have nothing to say, and there will always be a chance to make up for it in the future." "There is an opportunity in front of us." Li Hongzhang said, "It seems imperative to increase the salary of the Beijing camp. Naturally, we must rectify the increase. This job, Zhonghua, in my opinion, is none other than you." Rong Lu could hear what he meant, as long as he expressed something, he would be willing to speak and recommend in front of King Chun. In fact, why should a third party bother about his relationship with King Chun?The shortcoming of King Chun is that he is unavoidably suspicious. Sure enough, Li Hongzhang said good things for himself in front of him. He only thought that he had the heart to fall to Beiyang, which aroused suspicion instead. Thinking about it this way, I was quite uneasy, afraid that Li Hongzhang would act recklessly and his good intentions would become unbearable, so he replied, "This is Zhongtang who thinks highly of me. If Qiye thinks that I can still run around for a while, why would I dare to act on my own accord?" Gao? Please take Zhongtang's advice, and within a day or two, I'll go see Master Qi." This is a hint: if he has something to say, he can say it himself, without the need for others to do it for him.What kind of role is Li Hongzhang?Naturally, he understood immediately, "This is it!" He nodded repeatedly, encouraging him, "King Chun knows people well, and remembers old love. Zhong Hua, you really don't need to be outside of others." ※ ※ ※ After Li Hongzhang left, Rong Lu thought over his words again, and felt that the trip to Shiyuan was essential, and the sooner the better. Therefore, in the afternoon of this day, I rode my horse to Umbrella Alley.Although the traces have been sparse in the past few years, it is not a general relationship after all, so King Chun heard the news from the door and immediately extended the meeting. When we met, we first asked about Linggui's condition. Rong Lu had already thought about it, and he couldn't meet without reason. He wanted to use his father-in-law's illness as a reason, so it was a good time to make a conversation. "My father-in-law's illness is useless, and he dragged it on in one breath, just because he couldn't let go of something on his mind, he specially asked me to come and beg the prince." "Oh, what's on his mind?" "It's not the name after death!" Rong Lu said: "The most proud thing in my father-in-law's life is that Emperor Xuanzongcheng Zhu Bi personally ordered him to be a biography. As usual, the clan can't get a tripod, so this biography is even more precious. In terms of posthumous posthumous law in the future, please ask Qi Ye to complete it." Bannermen attached great importance to the word "Jing" in regard to posthumous posthumous titles, so King Chun asked, "Could it be that he wants to posthumously posthumously Wenjing?" "I dare not ask for it." "Then..." King Chun thought for a while and said, "Anyway, we can't talk about it right now. When the cabinet drafts the words in the future, you should pay attention to it yourself, and just tell me when the time comes!" "Yes!" Rong Lu greeted casually, "I will thank Master Qi on behalf of my father-in-law." "Is that why you came here?" "It's not just about this matter." Rong Lu replied, "Recently, some people have been talking about the increase of the flag camp's salary. Someone came to ask me, and I said: Qi Ye's idea of ​​raising the flag camp's salary for many years , as long as there is enough money in the Ministry’s treasury, Seventh Lord will definitely do this. But now it’s important to build a large navy, and if you can’t do it for a while, don’t be discouraged, anyway, with Seventh Lord around, there must be hope.” This last sentence is what Chun Wang loves to hear most.His life's wish is to become a strong Eight Banners team capable of following the founding of the country.At that time, the nephews of the Emperor Taizu each had an army. Taizong was so heroic that he only commanded the Zhenghuang and Xianghuang Banners. Half.How happy it is to be able to control the entire flag and regain the glory of entering the customs! King Chun's wish had already been made for himself when Sushun was executed and when he first took charge of the Shenji Camp.He has read many military books and historical biographies of famous generals, and has also carefully examined the methods used by monks and kings to lead soldiers. He is convinced that only by being kind to the soldiers can they gain their deadly strength, and only by gaining their deadly strength can they have uninterrupted cold and heat, and work hard Practice to become an elite soldier who can attack well and defend well.However, for the past 20 years, he has only worked hard on the word "enjoyment". Of course, he can't talk about practicing hard, and he is not sure whether he can "get his death power".It was all because he felt that the friendship was not deep enough. This time King Chun has made up his mind that he will drastically eliminate the bad soldiers in the provinces who have a deeper habit than the "green battalion", and save military expenses for the "Enjie" banner battalion.However, "the salary increase in the flag camp is not for nothing." He said, "We have to find a way to rectify it!" Using the word "we" means that the rectification work has a share of honor and salary.However, he was unwilling to volunteer, and replied blankly: "It should have been rectified." "Someone needs to be rectified. Mu Tushan is good, but he can't be transferred to Beijing for a while; Shanqing, I want him to help run the navy. Zhonghua, you have been sick for too long, this time you have to help me busy." "How do you say 'help', Lord Qi is serious!" Rong Lu asked, "Does Lord Qi want me to go to the Shenji Camp, or return to the infantry to lead the yamen?" "Speaking of this, let's have a good talk." King Chun leaned over, leaning his left elbow on the coffee table, looking very intimate, "I have planned for a long time. The past two years have not looked the same on the ground! Fu Zhenting Mother-in-law, you can't be that job at all, there was a big joke last month, have you heard?" This is really a big joke.Only because Fu Kun, the commander of the infantry, was cowardly by nature and was insulted by others, a gentleman on Liang Shang stole his big hat, hung it on the Zhengyang Gate, and attached a note reading "The head of Mr. Fu, the commander of the infantry".Fortunately, it was discovered early and few passers-by could see it, but the secret agents of Shenji Camp naturally reported it.Although Rong Lu was in the wild, he was very well informed about the news, but the spies of the Shenji Camp often dealt with him, so it was better to keep the truth from King Chun, so he deliberately replied: "I haven't heard about it." "That's what happened..." The big joke that King Chun talked about really happened. "The superior appreciates Fu Zhenting very much, so I can't say more. But the infantry commanding the yamen must have someone who can stand up to it. I think you should go back there, and I will ask you to send you as a god." The mission of the Minister of Aviation Operations. Isn't this the best of both worlds?" "Thank you Qiye for your cultivation." Rong Lu replied calmly, "I will go back to the Infantry Commander's Yamen to be a wing lieutenant." How do you become a wing lieutenant?After thinking about it carefully, King Chun realized that he said this on purpose.Because of Shen Guifen and Baojun's joint efforts, Rong Lu was demoted to second rank in his post as Minister of Industry and Infantry Commander because of the crime of negligence. product positions. As for the subordinates of the infantry commander, the commander of the left and right wings is the second rank, and he is not qualified to serve as a wing lieutenant of the third rank.So what he said can be regarded as a complaint, or it can be said to be a reminder to King Chun that if he wants to use him, he must first restore him to his original post, otherwise he cannot be reused. Of course, King Chun had thought about this level a long time ago, "Zhonghua, don't worry, I've already made plans for you." He said, "Just wait until the next year, when the Mongolian prince who is entering the pilgrimage arrives, your piece Things can be done." "Oh," Rong Lu really couldn't figure out how his own affairs had nothing to do with the Mongolian prince, so he said, "Please make it clear, Seventh Lord." "The emperor has to practice riding and shooting in the beginning of spring. I want to use your name to buy eight good horses, and they will be rewarded with first-class rewards. Naturally, there will be grace." Needless to say, these eight good horses were purchased by the Mongolian princes and brought with them when they entered the pilgrimage as usual next year.Chun Wang is so thoughtful, the hospitality is really appreciable.When Rong Lu was thinking about how to express his gratitude, he heard King Chun shout: "Come on! See if the forehead is here? " Forehead son-in-law refers to his son-in-law, Naersu, the eldest son of Boyan Nemogu, who happens to be in the mansion and will arrive as soon as he is called.Rong Lu knew him very well. When they met, they held hands and asked questions, just like being affectionate to a little brother he loves. When their conversation came to an end, King Chun asked, "What about the eight horses?" "It's been picked out a long time ago. It's all chrysanthemum green, and it's not bad in size. It's being trained now, and I can go to Beijing in early November." "Did you hear that?" King Chun looked at Rong Lu and said. Rong Lu immediately flicked his sleeves, asked for a double security, stood up, lowered his hands and said, "Qi Ye is so protective, I really don't know what to say! Don't be afraid that Qi Ye will be angry, there is something that must be done by me, so that my heart will be satisfied." It's a little better." "Say it!" "I have to pay the price of the horse." "It's a small matter, it's up to you." So Rong Lu thanked him again and chatted some gossip before resigning.This trip was worthwhile, but things were really difficult. Fu Kun's family member Fang Long, even if the punishment of downgrading to the second level was cancelled, it might not be able to replace him.It would be too aggrieved to send a commander-in-chief of the left and right wings to listen to Fu Kun's orders. "That's right, I'd rather still be sick!" Rong Lu said to himself, "Why don't you go back to the Yamen of the Infantry Commander? If you want to go back, you have to be an official!"
