Chapter 51: Changes with each passing day

In the partial hall of Ji'an Prefecture, Ye Zhao was reading several telegrams, one of which was encrypted by Ruisi, and was translated by Bakesh in a word according to the code book.

In the name of military information, the telegram lines from major prefectures in Guangdong have been laid, and telegrams from Ganzhou, Ji'an and Fuzhou in Jiangxi have gradually become prototypes.

Nowadays, some businessmen have begun to use telegrams to transmit messages. Each word and a cent of silver can buy five or six kilograms of rice eaten by officials, so ordinary people naturally cannot afford it.

The telegrams Ye Zhao received were usually concise and concise, because Ye Zhao had long advocated "thrift" for official fees, and Li Xiaocun and others did not dare to make extra money when sending telegrams. Therefore, it became popular with the earliest "telecommunications". How to express the most precise meaning with the least words is worth thinking about it.

Most of the telegrams sent by Guangdong politicians are civil. From the telegrams, it can be seen that factories in Guangzhou and various satellite towns are now springing up like mushrooms after a rain, such as silk reeling, cotton textile, flour, matches, paper printing, food candy, machine mining, ship repair, small machine manufacturing, etc.

The latest telegram reported two good news. One was that the shipyard machinery and equipment under preparation had arrived in Kolkata, and the report was sent to the Strait of Malacca; the other was that when the Foshan-Guangzhou railway was opened to traffic, the prince asked the prince to decide. The main reason was that the railway company participated in the railway company hoped to ask the prince to cut the ribbon for the traffic.

Ruisi's telegram mainly reported on the war on the Western Front. Senggelinqin had already brought troops into Guangxi. The Yunnan-Guizhou Green Camp regiment bravely raised troops at the same time. The war in Guangxi is now fierce.

Seeing this telegram, Ye Zhao frowned slightly. The matchmaker's situation was a bit bad.

"Prince, Li Hongzhang has arrived." The guard at the door bowed and reported.

"Transfer." Ye Zhao said, and handed the telegram to Bakesh. Bakesh put it in a small tea bowl, lit it, and then poured the ashes and water into the soil of the green potted plants in the corner of the house.

Li Hongzhang was about to catch up with the tail when he came in. He knew it was the prince who handled the confidential telegram, so he would not read it too much. He knelt down and greeted him: "Li Hongzhang, the governor of Jiangxi, pays his respects to the prince."

With Ye Zhao's current status, all the governors and governors have to bow down. First and second-rank officials depend on their feelings and their mentality.

Ye Zhao nodded slightly and smiled, "Jianfu, there is no need to be too polite."

Li Hongzhang stood up and saw Ye Zhao indicating that he sat respectfully in the side position. Ye Zhao nodded again, and the guards presented the telegrams to Li Hongzhang.

Ye Zhao thought, "Jianfu, the laws and regulations of Jiangxi are all based on Guangdong as the template. Can you read the latest 'commercial law'?" The "commercial law" is similar to the laws of the United Kingdom and other laws such as the "Company Law" and "Unified Law" in the same period. It only adds an interpretation that conforms to the Eastern tradition. Speaking of which, it is more mature than the laws of the company that have just taken shape in the UK. For example, the legal person status of the commercial bank makes the rights and interests of the shareholders of the commercial bank clear, which is conducive to financing and the development of the commercial bank's management operation.

Li Hongzhang sighed and said, "I only realized today that this business and the yamen cannot confuse the public. The business business's knowledge is as vast as the sea. If people in the official school do not work hard, it is difficult to see the path."

Ye Zhao smiled and said, "The three hundred and sixty-five elements are different. Although the business companies also manage people, the yamen also manage people. The difference is too big. It is not too late for you to know it now." I thought that it would be considered that you can realize this early in your life.

Li Hongzhang nodded repeatedly.

Ye Zhao pointed to the telegram asking for the train to be opened and said, "Let me draw a copy of the text and tell them that you don't have to wait for me to cut the ribbon, it's true that you can open the train early.

"Yes!" Li Hongzhang hurriedly bowed to accept the order.

"Master, God Guardian is looking for a visit." A guard quickly walked into the hall and reported.

"Oh? Biography." Ye Zhao was slightly surprised. Li Xiucheng's troops gathered the remaining troops of the King of Ying to retreat to Nanchang. Shen Bao should have accepted the Linjiang Prefecture and Ruizhou Prefecture, which were abandoned by the thieves, so why did he suddenly come to Fuzhou?

After a while, the God of War stepped in, and Li Hongzhang naturally stood up and said goodbye to do what Ye Zhao told him.

The magic security knelt on one knee, with a shame on his face: "Prince, my subordinate apologized for his crimes. The Second Infantry Battalion under the Lower Post had a conflict with the Hunan Army in Linjiang, killing dozens of Hunan Army and capturing a Hunan Army leader. My subordinates were incompetent in the military. Please punish me!"

Ye Zhaoqi said, "How could he get fire with the Hunan Army? Do you think it was a bandit?" He didn't get angry. Although he asked this, he actually found out why he had a conflict with the Hunan Army.

Sure enough, the Shenbao said with anger: "Your Majesty, you are not a humble official to protect your subordinates. In fact, those Hunan guys are not things. The bandits were driven away by the prince. But they were fine. They didn't know where to hide before. Now they are all out of their heads. Not only are they burning and killing *** in the villages near Linjiang, but they also have to rush to enter Linjiang Mansion. Then they have a dispute with the rifle battalion, and in the end they have really started to fight."

Ye Zhao nodded slightly, picked up the tea cup and tasted the tea, and asked, "Who did the first move?"

Shen Bao said: "It's not clear who will start first, but the brothers in the Rifle Battalion were only slightly injured, killing so many Hunan troops, and tied up their stewards, this..."

Ye Zhao smiled and said, "You, why don't you know who will do it first?"

The God Bao was slightly stunned, and then suddenly realized that he thought the General King would be furious, but he wanted to fight for the title of a soldier who was not allowed to be a soldier. Who knew that he could not see any flames, but instead asked himself this, that was deliberately favoritism.

God protects his natural blessings to his heart and said, "Yes, he is a humble job, but he is the one who is the Hunan man who starts fire and hurts people."

Ye Zhao nodded and said, "The Hunan Army is brave, and he has no military discipline. Haven't you seen the documents of each regiment and each regiment? Burning, killing, looting? I'm not willing to die!"

"Zhe!" Shen Bao made a decision with his mind.

As he was speaking, the guard hurried in and reported: "Report to Prince, Shen Baozhen asks for a meeting."

Shenbao frowned slightly, and his thoughts came quickly.

Ye Zhao remained silent: "Transfer."

After a while, Shen Baozhen hurried in, and at that time, Shen Bao had already left.

"Jiangxi Governor Shen Baozhen greeted the prince." Although Shen Baozhen called him the prince, he just bowed to the ground, not to mention that he called himself the governor of Jiangxi, his intention was obvious.

Ye Zhao nodded slightly: "Your Majesty Futai, don't have to be too polite." Before Shen Baozhen sat down, he said: "I have submitted a memorial to the two empress dowagers and the emperor. Now most of the Ganzhou area has been pacified. When sanctioning the thieves and wars, the chaos in the office will be cleared. I recommend you as the Minister of War and help with the military affairs of the general's office. The empress dowagers of the two empress dowagers have been approved. I think the emperor will issue an order in the next few days."

Shen Baozhen was slightly stunned. It was clearly tying his army.

After a while, Shen Baozhen smiled and said, "The emperor obeyed the emperor's orders." He suddenly felt a little distressed. He helped the general's military affairs, but I was afraid that the emperor would really be able to be accurate. First, there would be a situation in the situation of Jiangxi's two politicians; another person followed the Guangdong army to find out the truth and seek it. But he was really accomplice with tigers and wolves? Who knows what the general was doing in his stomach?

After a while, Shen Baozhen remembered the serious matter and bowed to him and said, "Prince, have you heard of Linjiang Mansion?"

Ye Zhao said calmly: "Well, the Hunan Army's brave army was disbanded, raped, killed, and plundered, and took the lead in provocation. He was defeated by the infantry battalion in the first town. Is this a matter?"

Shen Baozhen was stunned for a while and frowned and said, "Who is the one who is the one who must not talk about it first, but he can fight with the same room and kill dozens of group heroes. This is a big deal..."

Ye Zhao waved his hand and interrupted him: "I have issued a strict order. If any soldiers and brave soldiers in various ways disturb the people, the generals of the towns can be executed first and then reported. From then on, I think this extremely vicious soldier will restrain him." Looking at Shen Baozhen, he said in a deep voice: "You Dan! Do you think the burning, killing, and looting village heroes are not disturbing my Qing Dynasty? Could it be that you want to protect them? You Dan has ever thought about the women, children and children who died tragically at their hands?"

Looking at Ye Zhao's bright eyes, Shen Baozhen suddenly felt a little ashamed. He heard this news and rushed over. He had already thought of a remark on the way and decided to punish the generals of the Guangdong Army. He was thinking about the power dispute between the capital and Guangzhou. He was thinking about how to kill the Guangdong Army. Otherwise, if this continued, he was afraid that the Guangdong Army would really become the source of chaos in the Qing Dynasty.

But at this moment, under Ye Zhao's clear eyes, he couldn't help but feel a little ashamed. Regardless of what the general Wang originally intended, he had read the books of sages for many years, but now he was full of power and conscience. Does he still have a little conscience to save the world?

I had thought about the words I had practiced countless times before I could not say them. Shen Baozhen slowly lowered his head and said, "Yes, the lower official will be taught."

Ye Zhao stared at him for a while, and then said, "I have been led by Xiangyong, and I have sent someone to come to Fuzhou. This matter is yours. You can do it, whether to kill or release it."

Shen Baozhen was stunned again. Isn’t this difficult for him? He hurriedly said, “I’ll ask the prince to make it clear.”

Ye Zhao had already picked up the teacup and smiled and said, "I will definitely know which one is more important if I want to know."

Shen Baozhen had no choice but to get up and say goodbye.

...

A few days later, at the Lotus Tingyuxuan, Ye Zhao was wearing a loose black casual outfit, half lying on the comfortable sofa, looking at an advertisement in the newspaper. Yesterday, he had just returned from Fuzhou.

Li Xiucheng's troops retreated to Nanchang, while Shi Dakai's troops stationed troops in Jiujiang and confronted the Hunan Army, making them a supportive horn. The city of Nanchang was high and deep, and the bandits were operated for several years, and there were several artillery relied on. In addition, the proportion of musketeers in the Taiping Army was increasing, and it was urgent and unbreakable. If a strong attack was taken, it would inevitably hurt the enemy, one thousand and one thousand damage themselves.

What's more, although the troops in the four towns have added artillery battalions, there are actually no artillery. The artillery of the Guangdong army is only one battalion, and the remaining artillery must be slowly replenished into each town.

Therefore, the infantry regiments of the first, third and fourth towns were stationed in Jiangxi, and the various regiments braved the camp dozens of miles north of Nanchang. This was for the Jiangxi camp, so that the bandits dared not move lightly. The infantry regiment of the second town was temporarily withdrawn back to Guangdong for rest.

When Ye Zhao returned to Guangzhou, in addition to urging the artillery to manufacture, he was naturally thinking about how to help the matchmaker who was fighting in Guangxi.

But what Ye Zhao didn't expect was that this person's thoughts were really strange. Just two or three years ago, he was racking his brains to figure out how to make the people of Guangzhou accept new things, and how could he make women take to the streets and expand their social circles.

But in this blink of an eye, Guangzhou's "progress" thoughts were surprising. In this newspaper, there was an advertisement for soap. Photos of female models with lotus flowers. Although only the shoulders and legs were exposed, this was widely advertised. The Chinese boss of the soap factory is bold and the female models' thoughts are "vanguard", but this advertisement is really eye-catching and the effect is excellent.

I also heard that there were female waiters in Huashang Restaurants in the city, and as for Xiguan, female waiters were even more common.

Now it seems that I have to correctly lead the direction of public opinion and not to go to the other extreme, just like women in later generations regard exposure as beautiful. But thinking about it, there is no need to worry about it. The problem with the moral concepts of later generations is because Western civilization is too strong, and domestic civilization is divided for various reasons. This has led to the concepts such as "***" that appeared in the 20th century being taken out of context by some Chinese people, and advocating foreign countries is an extremely common phenomenon.

In this world, the inheritance of Chinese civilization will not have such a catastrophe again. Although it is castrated Confucian culture, its ethical, moral, cultural, and other traditions are still passed down from generation to generation. Moreover, the essence of Chinese civilization values ​​is "family", which is the Three Bonds and Five Constant Virtues. If the family fails to get married, traditional morality will first become the object of revolution. For example, when parents, children, brothers and sisters expose each other's clear boundaries, many traditional morality has become feudal dregs without dialectical discussion, only talking about revolutionary relations, which destroys the bottom line of traditional morality. After the reform and opening up, the Chinese people who are confused and lost faith have begun to believe that interests are the first. This step by step has destroyed the tradition of Chinese civilization and put the Chinese people in the crisis of true moral values.

This life, it won’t happen?

Just as she was thinking, Tingyuxuan's huge golden wooden door was pushed open, Rong'er rushed in with surprise. She wore a thousand layers of colorful flowers and slim cheongsam with blue silk embroidered peony. In front of the collar, the robe was inlaid with wide edges with golden silk. The peony bloomed, and the cheongsam was elegant and cute, just like hers.

Seeing her walking in tall wooden embroidered flagship shoes, Ye Zhao wanted to laugh, and even though she thought about it, she had to dress up in a regular manner in Guanyin Mountain.

"I'll pay my respects to the prince." Rong'er walked to Ye Zhao's side and became blessed. She thought she was influenced by her sister again in the palace.

Ye Zhao smiled and said, "Okay, it's the same as before in the future. We don't have so many rules." Before returning to Guangzhou, the six kings issued an order to grant Ye Zhao the title of Prince of Doluo Suzhi and the General of Pingyuan Jingkou. However, the edict did not ask Ye Zhao, the general of General Wang, to conduct civil affairs in many ways. However, no matter what, it was to make up for Ye Zhao's votes, and naturally also conferred Rong'er as the concubine. Rong'er is now the perfect concubine of the prince.

The Six Kings also approved Ye Zhao's memorial, and Shen Baozhen was appointed as the Minister of War to help the general fight against the military affairs of the bandits.

The Six Kings had no choice but to do it, but they were a wonderful step. Since they could not be blocked, they showed their favor, so that the people of the world knew how much I value you, and what you would do in the end? In private, they thought they would also have plans to make plans. When the plan was exhausted, they didn't know what it was.

"Go, change into light clothes, and don't be afraid of being tired." Ye Zhao twisted her face.

Speaking of which, Rong'er is about to take the exam. If she gets the little red flower at the end of the semester, can't she really pinch her little face?

Rong'er didn't know that her husband had already started to think about how to repent. In her mind, although her husband was not a good person in trivial matters and liked to make trouble, he was naturally a great hero. How could he be a slut with her little woman?

"Oh" Rong'er agreed obediently, and walked out with a small step in an extremely elegant manner.

"Master, General Harric brings his wife to pay tribute to the concubine." As soon as Rong'er left, the pretty girl Ruyi came in to report in a proper manner.

Ye Zhao said in his heart that this old man has come to the trend? Come and visit with his wife?

Ye Zhao knew that during the period when he was not in Guangzhou, Bai Gui, Li Xiaocun and others came to kowtow to Rong'er, so they naturally wanted to congratulate the concubine.

"Yeah, I'll go now."

Ye Zhao changed into a silk robe and brocade jacket and went straight to the flower hall.

In the flower hall, Haric and his wife had been waiting for a long time. When they saw Ye Zhao entering the hall, they hurriedly bowed down to the house, "Slave Haric (Guoxi Chuka) asks his master for help."

Harichi's wife Guarja is a beautiful woman in her early thirties. Her wife is noble and her husband is promoted to the second-rank general. She has become a second-rank imperial edict in the court, and she is even brought to the court to see the prince. Not to mention her excitement. A few years ago, she often secretly felt sad because her brother-in-law was promoted very quickly. She should have married from Xi'an, but she would not be her sister who often shows off at home. Who knew that after her husband followed the Duke, she was really successful. In just a few years, she became a second-rank official and directly compared her sister to the bottom of the overpass.

When I came to pay homage to the prince and concubine, Guarjia dressed up very carefully. He also wore the beaded hairpin headboard that symbolized the identity of a noble lady for the first time. I would like to mention the satisfaction.

At this time, he knelt down carefully, and did not dare to look up. However, the prince glanced at the moment he entered the flower hall, but he was very surprised. He had heard that the prince was young and handsome, but he could not have thought that he was so gentle and beautiful.

"All get up, sit down, it's hard for you to be determined!" Ye Zhao made a gesture, looked at Harrick and smiled: "Just just answered the message, Shen Baozhen chopped that guy's head."

Harric was stunned and then laughed: "Master Gao Ming." He said: "It seems that Shen Baozhen can't underestimate him."

Ye Zhao smiled. Shen Baozhen's move was naturally not a confession, but Harris said that he could not underestimate him.

Shen Baozhen was winning his trust in himself and saying that he would not be favoritism and abuse of power, but it also shows that with the sharp contrast between the Guangdong Army, he also disagrees with the burning, killing, abducting and looting of the Hunan Army. It is definitely not easy to be determined to execute the Hunan Army officers. Even if there are thousands of reasons, he would not know that the governor of Liangjiang who recommended him was not a broad-minded person.

Harric smiled again and said, "Master, do you really want to keep him to listen to? This person is not simple. But Master, don't worry, you will naturally tell him what he should listen to in the future. If he shouldn't listen, he will not hear a word."

Ye Zhao nodded slightly and signaled to Harric, "Come on, try this snack." He took the lead in picking up a piece.

There are exquisite snacks, Western cream bread, cheese pancakes, etc. on the table, which are sweet and fragrant, making people feel even more appetizing. Ye Zhao guides the chef to make them, and Rong'er is very fond of her heart.

Jixiang hurried in when he was talking and whispered a few words in Ye Zhao's ear, but Rong'er accidentally twisted her feet when she went downstairs. Ye Zhao was both angry and funny, and she could twist her arms and legs, and she wanted to go upstairs to see her, but she couldn't leave now.

He said to the Harric couple: "Father Jin is in a bad condition, but this is unfortunate."

The Harric and his wife looked at each other and were all smart people. They immediately gave me some concerns and then stood up to say goodbye. Ye Zhao then asked someone to see him off.
