I don’t know if it was because I hadn’t begged for a visit for a while, or if the emperor was in a good mood today, and the sign was not in a big meeting, the imperial guards came out to Xuan Han Xiufeng and Enjun to meet.

The two followed the guards to a courtyard, and heard the opera singing inside from a distance. After the guards reported it, they walked in and found that the emperor did not sing today, but sat upright on the dragon chaise, shaking his head, and humming with a swaying rhythm.

"My minister, Han Xiufeng, please respectfully ask the Holy One!"

"I am kind to my servant, please respectfully invite the Holy One!"

"Don't kneel down, get up and listen to the opera together, and let's talk about it after listening to this episode."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

The two of them quickly got up and retreated respectfully.

I don’t know if the actors on the stage think that the two more fans were singing harder, and the emperor was more satisfied with listening. Once the two actors finished singing, they ordered the eunuch to give him a reward.

According to the rules, when summoning civil and military officials, idle people should avoid it.

The actors took the silver reward and thanked him for thanking him, and then followed the eunuch out. Xianfeng looked at the actors' departure and picked up the cup and muttered uneasy: "What kind of evil have I done? I can't restless if I want to listen to the play."

Han Xiufeng's heart skipped a beat and hurriedly bowed, "I have disturbed the emperor's Yaxing, and I deserve to die."

"Forget it, hurry up and say, what's the matter with the sign so late to ask for a meeting?"

"I dared to beg for the audience and have two things to report to the emperor. One is that I just received an urgent report from the South China Sea branch, and there were unlucky people in the territory of the British East India Company to cause trouble..."

This is definitely good news, Xianfeng was happy: "In this way, they have to quickly dispatch troops to the East India to quell the rebellion?"

"If the news is true, the British will quickly dispatch troops to suppress the thieves and quell the rebellion."

"Then is this news true or false?"

"Report to the emperor, I think there should be no falsehood in such a big matter. In order to ensure that everything is foolproof, I have ordered the Shanghai branch to verify it quickly."

Xianfeng was too lazy to care about the territory of the East India Company, and too lazy to ask how big the territory of the East India Company was. It was confirmed that the British were like the Qing Dynasty and had rioters who were in trouble and could not feel comfortable. He couldn't help but ask with a smile: "There is one more thing?"

Han Xiufeng hurriedly said, "Then Prince Gong is here to go to the bookstore today to ask about the feelings of the past few months."

Xianfeng was stunned for a moment, then put down the teacup and said as if nothing had happened: "It was my kindness that he had gone to the bookstore. If he wanted to go, let him go and serve him carefully."

"I obey the order."

Enjun didn't expect Han Xiu to report this to the summit. Seeing that the emperor really took it seriously, he suddenly realized that this was not a trivial matter! He was secretly reminding himself to stay away from Prince Gong in the future and never be punished by the emperor for being confused about this matter. The emperor suddenly asked, as if he had thought of something: "Han Aiqing, you have led the Eastern Sichuan delegation to Wuchang to cooperate in the suppression of Changmao. Have you ever seen Jiang Yili when you were in Wuchang?"

Han Xiufeng thought the emperor would ask Zeng Guofan, but he never expected that the emperor would ask Jiang Yili, and hurriedly said, "I have seen him, but I have only met him once."

"Is this man honest, isn't he a good person to do it in a decent manner?"

"Report to the emperor, Jiang Yili is two years younger than Chen. Because he is young and a little energetic, although he is Luo Zenan's student with Li Xubin, he is not very convinced by Li Xubin. It is also because he is not in the way of dealing with Li Xubin that he repels Shi Dakai and returned to his hometown in Hunan in anger." Han Xiufeng thought for a while, and then said, "According to my place, he has a good relationship with Wang Xin from Hunan. I guess he should have returned to Hunan to join Wang Xin."

"Wang Xin is also a student of Luo Zenan?"

"yes."

"Then will he accept Zeng Guofan?"

"As far as I know, I am not convinced."

"Why don't you accept it?" Xianfeng asked afterwards.

Han Xiufeng quickly explained: "The emperor didn't know anything. When Changmao fled from Guangxi to Hunan, Luo Zenan saw that Changmao would smash the statue of a saint and burn the books of a sage whenever he went there, he would lead Wang Xin, Jiang Yili and other students to organize a group training. They recruited bravely to help the officers and soldiers attacked the bandits, which was only a little later than Jiang Zhongyuan. Zeng Guofan and Zeng were ordered by the emperor to supervise the group training later, so they were not very convinced by Lord Zeng."

"That's all?"

"I heard that when Lord Zeng held a group training, he promised Wang Xin to recruit 3,000 Yongzhuang. As a result, because the money and food were insufficient, Wang Xin dismissed those Yongzhuang who had been recruited almost the same. Because the two of them had a quarrel, they later served under Lord Luo Bingzhang and Luo."

Confirm that Jiang Yili and Zeng Guofan were not on the same side, Xianfeng nodded slightly.

Han Xiufeng was confused and couldn't help asking: "Master, why did you ask Jiang Yili?"

"Guangxi Governor Lao Chongguang requested to transfer Xiangyong to Guangxi to assist in suppressing the remnants of the Tiandihui Association. Luo Bingzhang recommended the registered magistrate Jiang Yili to lead three thousand Xiangyongs to Guangxi to assist in suppressing the suppression. A general was incompetent and exhausted the three armies. Therefore, I have to ask whether Jiang Yili was honest and would lead troops to fight."

"I think Jiang Yili is a powerful general."

"Even you say he is a powerful general, then I will send an order tomorrow to the report of Luo Bingzhang."

Seeing that the emperor never asked Zeng Guofan, Han Xiufeng realized whether he was willing to let Zeng Guofan go back to his hometown with his younger brother Zeng Guohua. The emperor had already had an idea. Thinking that it was not easy to meet him again, he said carefully: "Your Majesty, I went to Nanyuan to watch the military parade this morning. I happened to meet someone from the infantry commander's yamen to handle the case. I heard that Jingqingzhai had caught thieves."

When Xianfeng mentioned this, he was full of anger and said hatefully: "There is indeed such a matter. Chen Yuanqing Zaifeng and Wulehong'er are incompetent. The garden court should be serious. But they were deeply favored by the emperor but were careless. The furnishings in the hall were stolen. They knew nothing about it. Until the infantry commander's office took the thief and seized the stolen stolen stolen, they were still kept in the dark. I have issued an order to Zaifeng and Wulehong'er, both of which were handed over to the Ministry of Justice. Fengchen Yuanyuan, the chief of the Ministry of Justice, is well-qualified and handed over to the Ministry of Internal Affairs!"

"The emperor calms down. I think this matter cannot be blamed on the two great masters Zaiqi and Ulehong'er. They have to take charge of the ban on the gardens and the emperor's blessings at the time. Although it is their responsibility. There are so many gardens in the capital, and everything has always been prioritized. You must first focus on the Old Summer Palace, Changchun Garden and Xiyuan, and Nanyuan can only be ranked behind, let alone the Nanyuan as big as... "

"Han Si, have you taken their benefits to help them plead for mercy?"

"The emperor misunderstood. I borrowed ten courages to give it to me, but I didn't dare to come and plead for them. Besides, I didn't recognize them." Han Xiufeng calmed down and continued, "I... I know that I can't hide it from the emperor. I actually want to take this opportunity to recommend myself."

The civil and military officials sent out to inquire about the situation three years ago were not counted. In Xianfeng’s impression, Han Xiufeng seemed to have recommended a Wen Xiang, and couldn’t help but ask: “Who do you want to recommend?”

"I want to recommend Wang Qianli, the Tongzhi of the north bank of Yongding River, to be the head of Nanyuan."

"Why recommend Wang Qianli?"

"Reported to the emperor, the reason why I recommend Wang Qianli is that I do not want to watch the Heying camp be destroyed. The Heying camp was ordered by the emperor to rectify and rebuild the Tongzhi on the south bank of Yongding River. From the day of its reconstruction, the Heying soldiers knew that they were responsible for protecting the capital. Now only more than 40 people have been transferred. The Yongding River Channel has not applied for the river work payment for several years, and the Zhili Grain Channel has also owed them nearly a year of food and salary. If this continues, the Heying camp will be in name only."

Xianfeng reacted and stared at Han Xiufeng and asked, "Do you want to recruit young and strong men and restore the Heying camp?"

"I have never thought that if I am not in my position and do not plan my politics, and I dare not think about this. I just think that those who can persist until today are all loyal and righteous people who are dedicated to serving the court. If I take this opportunity to transfer them to Nanyuan, they can not only give them a way out, but also allow them to inspect day and night to prevent the sluts from sneaking into the garden and stealing. If there is any war in the future, they can even recruit young men and women for the skeleton to rebuild the river camp."

"It's not a bad idea to let them work in Nanyuan, but... they are all green camp soldiers."

"The emperor doesn't know that although they are soldiers in Gu'an, they are actually doing similar chores as yamen runners. As long as the emperor can reward them with food and give them a way to live, they will definitely be grateful and will not care about their status."

"You mean that you are the commander of Wang Qianli, the Tongzhi on the north bank of Yongding River, to be the head of Nanyuan, and let the dozens of soldiers and brave soldiers in the He Camp follow Wang Qianli to serve in Nanyuan first?"

"I... I can't bear to watch them displaced, and I don't want to watch the soldiers that the court spent so much money and food to raise were dispersed, so I dared to recommend it."

"This is reasonable. They have eaten my food for so many years, so they can't just let them disperse." Xianfeng weighed the pros and cons, and stood up and said, "I'm sure, this matter is settled."

"Thank you, Emperor Long."

"Don't thank you, talk about serious business." Xianfeng thought of Han Xiufeng's request in the first month of the year, and then Enjun had been practicing in the "Houyi Hall" for three years, and pondered: "In a few days, I will issue an order to go to Tianjin to inspect the grain. Enjun, you will go together."

"Slaves obey the order!"

"Listen to me," Xianfeng sat down and said slowly: "It will take two or three months to come back at the earliest. You have to explain to Cao Yuying about the matter on the bookstore. Then, after inspecting the coastal defense, you will find that there are any omissions, not only should you write a report, but it is best to go to Baoding."

Tianjin was under the rule of Zhili. Whether it was repairing and strengthening the fort or raising silver to cast cannons, it was finally necessary to handle the right governor of Zhili. Thinking of this, Han Xiufeng hurriedly said: "I understand."

"Then you must never be arrogant."

"I understand, I follow the order."

"Just understand, just kneel down and rest."

...

He received the order to thank him and bowed to leave the house. Enjun was so excited that his blood was boiling.

Han Xiufeng also realized that after "accepting the grain", Enjun was about to be promoted. As soon as he walked out of the palace, he turned around and smiled: "Xincheng, our colleague can't be a few days. If nothing unexpected happens, after returning from Baoding, you will go to the northwest to be the leader."

"If it weren't for your support from the Fourth Master, I, Eunjun, wouldn't have been today!" Eunjun raised his hands, thought about it and smiled, "Besides, there is not a single word of the eight characters yet. Even if the emperor really asked me to go, when I think of Xinjiang and Tibet so far, I really don't want to go."

"Don't be ungrateful, this opportunity is not something that everyone has."
