Chapter 539 Mistake
After taking the Beijing News, Wang Yunshan took a closer look, pondered slightly, and said disapprovingly: "Isn't it just the integration of Manchu and Mongolia, an extension of Manchu and Han integration? The court has mentioned it a lot over the years, but it has not been implemented. Does Hengzhi have other opinions on this?"
"Now the crown prince is the reign of the country, and the meaning of this is naturally very different." Li Qingming said solemnly: "The navy created by the crown prince was the first to propose that it would not be distinguished from the Manchus, Han and Mongolians. This is something that the entire capital has heard of. Now it is said in the Beijing News again. This is obviously to treat everyone equally. If it is expected, it is just a test. After the crown prince ascends the throne, he will vigorously promote it.
If this is true, why worry about being excluded? Besides, if you enter a workshop, you are not an official, you are all relying on your ability to make a living. If you don’t have the ability, you have to leave even if you are not excluded. Why worry too much if you have the ability?"
"If it makes sense, let's go to Shanghai to see it. I have long heard that Shanghai's prosperity is not under Jiangning." Wang Yunshan said and chuckled, "It's a pity that he never enters the officialdom. With your ability to think, you will definitely achieve great things."
"Brother Ming'an made fun of it." Li Qingming chuckled and said, "It is important for people to know themselves. With my character, I am just a master's information. And I have to find a master who obeys the rules, otherwise I will have to leave the house in less than a year."
After hearing this, Wang Yunshan couldn't help but smile and said, "Hengzhi's temper must be appreciated by the superiors. I'll just work with me to study."
Xiaotangshan Palace.
After routinely restoring acupuncture and massage, Kangxi made an exception and did not practice calligraphy. Instead, he quietly lay on a recliner in the garden, looking at the scenery in front of him, and the eunuchs and palace maids were scattered in a far distance when they saw this. Only Li Dequan stood behind with his body bent and dared not say a word.
Kangxi was also concerned about how to manage the flag citizens entering the Tianjin Military Workshop. This group of flag citizens is not a small number. According to Lao Si Fourteen's plan, at least tens of thousands or even as high as 100,000, the Qingshang Banners, if calculated only by the Qingshang, it is equivalent to the size of two or three flags.
He was indeed very moved by this group of flag citizens, but hesitated. If he took action openly, it would inevitably arouse strong opposition from the five flags and princes and nobles, and might destroy the plan for the bannermen to join the army. After all, solving the livelihood of the bannermen is the original intention, and we cannot put the cart before the horse and lose the big picture because of the small.
If he slowly embezzled, he was worried that Lao Shishi would take the lead. Although the military workshop was under the name of the Ministry of Works, everyone knew that it was Lao Shishi's territory. If Lao Shishi was allowed to engulf this group of tens of thousands of young and strong bannermen, what would the consequences be? The bannermen have been practicing riding and shooting since childhood, and these tens of thousands of young and strong soldiers are tens of thousands of elite soldiers! And right next to the capital, what is the safety of the capital? Did Lao Shishi have already had this idea when he proposed that the bannermen enter the workshop?
Kangxi pondered silently. Li Dequan stood behind and stood solemnly, not daring to move, for fear of disturbing Kangxi. However, he was always paying attention to the movements in the courtyard. When he saw a little eunuch hunching his head at the entrance of the garden, he guessed that it should be the report from the capital city. He gestured and asked. Seeing that the guess was correct, he replied softly: "Your Majesty, the report from the capital city has been delivered."
Kangxi didn't say anything, but nodded slightly. Li Dequan understood and immediately walked quickly to the gate of the garden. The little eunuch bowed and presented the express report in a low voice: "The crown prince has come out of Beijing and flew here."
Li De took the express report expressionlessly and turned around and left. He went to Kangxi and carefully opened the bag. Not only did the express report but also a Beijing newspaper. After Kangxi reached out to take it, he whispered: "The crown prince is already on the road."
Kangxi still didn't say anything. He quickly browsed the news and frowned slightly. The old fourteen actually made public the conditions for recruiting bannermen and the treatment of craftsmen in the form of a notice. He wanted to use the banner people to urge the banner masters and princes and nobles to use the banner people. It seems that the old fourteen is also making the idea of Tianjin banner people, and he is really good at calculating!
After pondering for a while, he hadtily looked at the specific amount of wages at the craftsmen and the specific wages at each level. He was not concerned about this thing. The military workshop was huge in scale, and paying wages according to the grading and paying wages is easier to manage and stimulate the enthusiasm of craftsmen. As for the highest wage, it is just a gimmick. I believe that few people can get that wage.
Kangxi attached great importance to the Beijing News and read it carefully from beginning to end. This issue of the Beijing News did not mention the fact that the bannermen entered the workshop. It was a piece of article about the great victory in the day. Lao Sioux did not take the credit, but praised him for his judgment on the situation and his decision-making achievements. He knew that Lao Sioux was trying to block the mouths of the court officials, and couldn't help but smile.
He didn't care about the sentence mentioned above that was suspected of national integration. Propaganda is one thing, but doing is another thing. Instead, it focuses on highlighting the marriage between Princess Xian of Japan, which made him quite puzzled. This matter is mainly aimed at Japan. Why is it highlighted in the Beijing News? What does the Si Si want to do? Want to change the vassal relationship of the Qing Dynasty? Or is it for the vassal states in Nanyang?
In order to avoid delaying time on the road, Yinzhen deliberately rode his horse and left the city. He rode a fast journey for half an hour to reach Xiaotangshan Palace. After getting off the horse and washing up, he hurried outside the garden to ask for a meeting.
After learning that the Fourteenth Old has arrived, Kangxi returned to his room and received the report, he immediately came in.
After Yinzhen entered the house to pay a visit, Kangxi also gave him a seat as usual. As soon as he sat down, he asked in a deep voice: "The Beijing News focuses on highlighting the marriage of Princess Xian of Japan. Why is it?"
Yinzhen did not expect Kangxi to ask about this matter and said calmly: "Return to Emperor Ama, this is the step to seize the vassal states of the South China Sea. My sons focus on promoting this matter, and are preparing to order the vassal states of the coastal states to collect coins, pledge them, and marry them step by step, so that they can become famous."
Kangxi also coveted the Nanyang vassals, which was the Qing Dynasty's grain depot. When he heard that the Fourteenth Old was indeed heading for the Nanyang vassals, he couldn't help but nodded slightly. The navy had only been expanding for two or three years, and it was time for the rainy day to prepare for the future. He pondered slightly, and then he said: "In recent years, the Qing Dynasty and North Korea's vassal relationship has become increasingly close, and it should be left with a model of the vassal relationship. North Korea will be exempted for the time being."
Don't let North Korea go? Yinzhen was stunned. He had no good feelings for North Korea. He swallowed everything around him. What should I do if I leave North Korea? Those sticks, when Japan invaded China later, they killed many people and committed no less evil than Japanese devils. However, since Kangxi spoke, he could only wait until Kangxi died before taking it. Anyway, he was not in a hurry to deal with Southeast Asia and then turn north. He hurriedly bowed and said, "The decree of the son minister." (To be continued)
