Chapter 104: Everyone recites their own scriptures
Shipping is a door, a door that breaks the lockdown of the country. Since the founding of the Qing Dynasty, in order to prevent the Zheng family entrenched in Taiwan, the strategy of Jinghai has been adopted. Even though the Zheng family has been reduced, the sea ban has not been opened. When the door is closed, it is called the Supreme Kingdom of the Celestial Empire. Although it is not completely isolated from the outside world, the foreign trade quota is pitifully small. In this era of rapid development in the Western world, China, a great country, has gradually fallen behind. Not only in terms of technology, but also in terms of thought, it is completely behind in terms of thought. Only by opening the door of shipping can overseas trade be launched and the opportunity to keep up with the trend of the Great Leap Forward in the world today.
When he thought of the tragic incidents such as the British and French coalition forces burning the Old Summer Palace in his previous life, Yinzuo's heart was always so sad. Whether from the perspective of a time traveler or a prince who was determined to be a throne, he would never allow such a thing to happen again. However, it is not easy to break the established policy of closing the country.
Let’s not talk about the opposition of the court officials. The Confucians who only know how to do some useless nonsense, except for doing some useless nonsense articles, only know that the country and land of the Celestial Empire are vast and do not need external strange and erotic skills. They don’t know anything about anything else. Even if they think they are open-minded and follow the missionaries of Matteo Ricci, Johnson Chan, and Nan Huairen to China for a few years, Mr. Kangxi, who has studied foreign languages for several years, will not agree to open up the maritime ban. It’s nothing else. The old man himself is also a Confucian from the bottom of his bones.
There is basically no hope for breaking the strategy of closing the country from the front. Yinzuo would not be so stupid that he would hit the wall that could not be opened. However, it is possible to move forward in a roundabout way and open a small window on the wall. Now he will take advantage of the opportunity of a river worker to get the sea grain transport first. Once the sea transportation starts, he will clear out the pirates and talk with Portugal and Spain, the two maritime powers, will inevitably be beaten. In this way, the weak navy of the Qing Dynasty will be beaten. With the handsome personality of Mr. Kangxi, he will inevitably be unable to tolerate the loss of silence, and then it will be lively.
To build a navy, you need money and technology, which forced the Qing Dynasty to move forward, not only to engage in overseas trade, but also to have overseas forces. By then, a small window would become a door, and Yinzuo wanted such a result. Although there were many dangers and many difficulties, Yinzuo would never give up, not only for the sake of his descendants, but also for his own great cause. Seeing that the chariot was about to start, Yinzuo was really excited, but when Lin Xuanyi told the news, Yinzuo was a little overjoyed.
"Congratulations to the prince for being a father." Lin Xuanyi said calmly. Although he was congratulations, there was no sign of congratulation on Lin Xuanyi's face.
"Who? I am a father?" Yinzuo was stunned: This is all about what happened? We haven't even gotten married yet, why did a child come out?
"After the prince went to the morning court today, Liu Chang'e came and said that the two girls from Tianjin Wei had all. What should I do if the prince saw it?" Lin Xuanyi said slowly.
Damn! I was so impatient that I forgot both Chunlan and Qiuju, both girls, to the sky. I was ashamed! Hum? I want to be a father, hahaha, we are really a sharpshooter, and we are a father, hahaha, it's so good! Yinzuo was so happy that he couldn't stop talking, but Lin Xuanyi's next sentence made Yinzuo's smile dull.
"The prince is about to get married."
Ah, wedding, Lan Yue'er? Yinzuo was stunned. It was not a strange thing for the princes to have a few concubines before the marriage. Not to mention the princes, it is normal for even those rich families to have trouble, but one thing is difficult - ordinary concubines gave birth to children before the owner's wedding, which was extremely important, but it would be a concubine, but it would be a little troublesome if the princes had this matter.
According to the Qing system, if you want to become the prince's concubine, even the concubine must pay attention to his identity. There is no need to say that the concubine must be from the Shangsanqi. Even the concubine must be a bannerman. A woman like Chunlan and Qiuju, who is a lowly family, can't even be a concubine, but her children still have status. According to the rules, the child must be taken back to the royal palace as soon as she is born, while the two girls cannot enter the royal palace and will never see their children in their lifetime.
If the other princes were not careful, they would not take this matter to heart. At worst, they would take the children back after the wedding, and the two girls would leave them aside and let him go. The princes were not short of beauties at all, and there was no need to spend any effort. But Yinzuo was different. It was not that he was ruthless. It was just that he knew from later generations that children without maternal love must have flaws in their personality. Yinzuo did not want his own child to be such a big figure.
It is not impossible to let the two girls enter the door. Raising the flag is a unique thing in the Qing Dynasty. The so-called "raising" means to improve from low to high. Raising the flag is an important way for the bannerman to change his status, and a prominent honor. The honor is mostly decided by the emperor's special order or ministry. Yinzuo's means to turn these two girls into bannermen is just a slight effort, but the problem arises again: the wedding has not been done yet, and he has two children alone. No matter how rich Lan Yue'er is, she can't help feeling a little uncomfortable. It doesn't matter if she feels uncomfortable, and the life of the two girls will be difficult. Once the housework starts, Yinzuo will not be safe. Not to mention that if these two girls really enter the door, maybe one day they will be exposed to their identity details and learn about it.
Damn, this matter is disturbing. Alas, it's so good, so the trouble comes with it. Yinzuo frowned and paced around the room. Finally, he decided to lift the two girls into the flag first and then talk about other things, and then deal with them after the wedding.
You can ignore the marriage for now. The important thing is that the sea transportation memorials cannot cause trouble. Yinzuo put the marriage behind and described the morning court to Lin Xuanyi. After hearing this, Lin Xuanyi pondered for a moment: "Prince, it is a foregone conclusion that the sea transportation memorialized, but whether it can be grasped in the prince's hands is still in the uncertain world. There is still something to be busy next."
Yinzuo also understood this truth in his heart. Although the memorial was written by himself, it may not necessarily mean that the old man would let him take charge of the matter. If he was snatched away by another prince, it would be a big joke. He immediately discussed with Lin Xuanyi about what might happen.
Yinzuo was busy, and the other princes were not idle either. At this moment, they all gathered their own people to discuss. The third mansion was peaceful. Anyway, he could not compete with Yinzuo, and as long as he could get the benefits, he would be able to get the benefits. Although the land sales bureau that Yinzuo agreed to in front of him was full of fuel, it was nothing in the entire package of plans. The third brother and his group were naturally unhappy when they saw a large basket of meat, and they only had a bone. So, they summoned the fifth brother and the seventh brother and the seventh brother discussed it with a few bamboo strips. The main theme was only one, and they could get a little more. They also made a few memorandums, waiting to submit the memorial to grab the benefits.
Seeing that Yinzuo had gained power, Crown Prince Yinreng felt so tired of it, but he didn't dare to fight against Mr. Kangxi. Seeing that the passing of the shipping letter was basically a foregone conclusion, he was very active in his heart, and he was full of thoughts to pick peaches. Now, Yuqing Palace is busy now, Suo'ertu, Zhu Tianbao, Chen Tianqiu, Ling Pu and other prince's confidants are all busy.
If the third brother and his group just wanted to grab a piece of meat, the prince planned to even get the pot. Except for the reputation to be left to Yinzuo, they didn't want to let go of anything else. After a long time of discussion, a group of people finally made a charter, that is, no matter who the shipping matter was in the hands of anyone, they could not be allowed to be allowed to go. The prince himself could not compete for the mission, but Suetu could do it. As the Grand Secretary of the Baohe Palace, he was ranked first among the ministers of the Shangshuo's study room, Suetu came forward to take charge of the sea.
Yun was reasonable, but although Suo'ertu had a strong power and had many old officials, he could not get this mission by relying on the prince's team. He had to contact the other princes' forces, and the big guys were busy. They should contact the court officials, but they did not stop talking to those princes. For a moment, the officialdom in the capital was very lively, and officials of all sizes jumped up and down, talking to each other, and were busy writing memorials.
The boss was stupid, but he prepared a memorial, but he recommended it himself. He didn't care whether the old man would agree or not. As soon as he got off the court, he asked his subordinates to quickly handle a memorial and submitted it to him the first one. However, Mr. Kangxi didn't even reply to a word, but just asked him to wait.
The old Bayi was also discussing the sea shipping note, but it was more about Yinzuo's heart. When the old Jiu Yinzhen introduced the situation of this morning, Wen Ruihe, who had always been the last to speak, spoke first this time: "The Sixth Prince is afraid he is worried." As soon as this said, everyone in the room was stunned, and everyone looked at Wen Ruihe in a daze, not knowing what to say.
Old Shi Yinyin jumped up hotly: "Damn Lao Liu, damn it, everyone reported together to mess up the shipping matters with him. He couldn't let him get better."
Lao Jiu shook his fat cheeks and said viciously: "I found Lao Liu was not authentic in front of my head. Now I've gotten better, and I've really gotten up. I told me that I couldn't get a cheaper job in the river engineer that time. Everyone doesn't believe it, hey, this time..."
The eighth brother Yinsi waved his hand to interrupt Lao Jiu's nonsense, thought for a while with a cold face, his eyes flashed sharply, and he smiled and said, "It seems that Lao Liu is really meant. Alas, Benbeile has always been kind to others, and he didn't expect his brothers to treat each other like this, so let's go and see first." He stopped and said, "What do you think Mr. Wen?"
"The prince Yi's goal is not small, and this person is a great enemy. However, at this moment, Master Beile is not the only prince Yi to face. Don't forget that there is another master sitting in the palace. If he fights at this moment, he will be free of land." Wen Ruihe said slowly.
"Yes, that's the reason. Benbeile expected that the master would not stop there. I think there would be more twists and turns. We should sit in the mountains and watch the tiger fight." Yinsi said quietly.
"When Puheng thinks, the one who can do the palace can only do one trick: launch the Soetu to rush to pick peaches. If Puheng has good material, the one who is in the palace will send someone soon. Master Beile only needs to accept it first and attract it without sending it. When the two fight hard, Master Beile may not be able to pick peaches." Wen Ruihe picked up his beard and smiled and said a countermeasure. Just as everyone applauded, the housekeeper came to report: The lecturer of the Eastern Palace and Chen Tianqiu, a bachelor of the Hanlin Academy, came to visit.
"When Cao Cao is said, Cao Cao will arrive. Well, Benbeile will meet this envoy. Everyone will avoid it first." Yinsi said with a smile and asked the housekeeper to welcome the person into the study.
Chen Tianqiu, a native of Taiyuan, Shanxi, passed the imperial examination in the 27th year of Kangxi, a bachelor of the Hanlin Academy, and a lecturer in the Eastern Palace. He was known as an unparalleled eloquence. When he saw Yinsi, he naturally talked endlessly, such as king, minister, and brotherly friendship. He not only remembered the Ba Beile, but also praised Ba Beile as diligent in political affairs, and his voice was obvious, and he had always been valued by the emperor, etc. Then he changed his voice and talked about Soetu. Lord Suo had a deep understanding of sea transportation. In short, it was just one meaning: asking Yinsi to support Soetu to take charge of the general sea transportation, and he did not forget to make a lot of empty promises during this period.
Who is Yinsi? He is a fox who has become a spirit. He just kills people with a smile. He will not be deceived by Chen Tianqiu's nonsense. However, Yinsi didn't object, but just listened with a smile. Finally, he patted his chest and promised to follow the prince's instructions. At least he fooled Chen Tianqiu, who was planning to fool people, but Yinsi still did whatever he should do. To put it bluntly, he just wanted to stab the tiger in Bian Zhuang.
At this moment, all the officials in the capital were moving, but the fourth prince Yinzhen's mansion was silently silent. Everyone knew that this master had just lost his mission and was in trouble. In addition, this master was cold-hearted and no one wanted to come to the door to get in touch with him. Yinzhen was also very annoyed. He lost his mission, but Lao Liu was very glorious. He was all a mother and a prince, so how could he have such a different experience?
Yinzhen, who was in an irritable mood, wandered around the study room for a while, and couldn't suppress his depression, so he simply walked out without any purpose. He just walked around the mansion and walked to the residence of the people in the outer courtyard without knowing it. The servants all knew that their master had a bad temper recently and hid out when he saw Yinzhen's figure early. There was not even a figure in the huge yard, but a loud sound of reciting books came from a room in the yard.
Yinzhen stopped and listened for a while, but found that the person was reading the "Book of Changes". His heart was slightly shocked, and he was curious for a moment and walked towards the room...
