Zhao Xin listened to his wife very much. He went to the hospital after dinner early the next morning. A Miao followed him as usual. Shen Xuan looked at her man's back expressionlessly until he disappeared. Not seeing it, the eyes began to become a little crystal clear.
The guard battalion will never be able to keep up with the footsteps of "King Zhao". Since Chen Jishan was transferred, the successor guard battalion commander Yin Bingwei decided to divide the guard battalion into two sets of troops, and one set will be stationed in Beihai Town to listen at any time. Use the other one and follow Zhao Xin on the expedition. He thought about it, no matter how the adults moved back and forth, there must be a group of people following him.
So when Zhao Xin went out, a group of guards followed him. However, Zhao Xin's unexpected appearance still surprised some people. For example, Hong Liangji, who caught a cold last night and had a stomachache all night, so in the morning Then I thought about going to Wu Xianning to prescribe some medicine.
"Huh?" When Hong Liangji saw a familiar figure flashing past in the hospital, he was immediately confused.
When he returned to the office of the primary school with the medicine and told others what he had just seen, Duan Yucai and Liu Taigong were also very surprised. At this time, they heard Wang Zhong, who was immersed in his desk writing, say: "Jun Zhi, you have already told me You said that our King Zhao is not an ordinary person. At first you were arguing with me and talking nonsense, do you understand now?"
"Brother Rong Fu, what do you mean?"
Wang Zhong put down his brush, pointed to a map hanging on the wall inside the house and said: "It's nearly ten thousand miles from Yeniseisk to Beihai Town, not to mention the twelfth lunar month of winter, when the road is blocked by heavy snow, no matter how hard you travel, it will take two days one way. More than a month. But where was King Zhao more than a month ago? He was fighting a Rakshasa!"
When Hong Liangji and Liu Taigong thought about it carefully, this was really the case. It was really unheard of! Previous emperors wanted to live forever and become gods, but now this one is a god as soon as he appears?!
What will happen to the relationship between monarch and minister from now on?
Duan Yucai and Liu Taigong fell into deep thought, but before Hong Liangji had time to think, he heard a grunt in his stomach, and he turned around and went out...
In the ward, Zhao Xin sat on the stool in front of the bed, looked at the pale Wang Zhenyi carefully, and said with some guilt: "Take good care of yourself, read less, and don't go out with Lin Ziping. Look, you are tired and sick." ..."
Wang Zhenyi looked at Zhao Xin's dark circles like those of a panda, and responded with "hmm". She never expected that he would actually come. It must be a coincidence that when A Miao sent the telegram, he was already coming back. on the way.
"...When the snow melts in spring and your body is almost full, you can go to the north for a walk and I will take you to ride a horse. I have captured several Akhal Tekin horses before, which are what the ancients called sweat-blooded horses. I I have a black one, which is only 8 years old and is very beautiful. However, it is too cold in Yeniseisk, so I have to wear a horse jacket at night and feed it sheep fat and eggs..."
"I, I can ride a horse, I don't need you to lead me..." A trace of blush rippled on the young woman's delicate and pale face, and someone's big hand had grasped her slender fingers at some point.
"I think you just read too much, think too much, and worry too much, just like the eagle on the stand of the Hezhe people."
"What do you mean by this?"
"Sitting in the autumn wind with your neck hunched, your ambition is as cold as a duck. When will you take off the brocade curtain and fly into the sky with anger?" Someone rummaged through his intestines and stomach, and then carried the plagiarized poem on his back without a red face and a heartbeat.
"Did you do it?" Wang Zhenyi's eyes suddenly became very bright. She knew that someone was "erudite", but she had never heard that he could write poetry. However, this poem completely expressed what she was thinking.
It feels so apt.
"Sudden inspiration." A certain person didn't blush about his plagiarism. In his view, we are all a family anyway, and what's yours is mine.
Zhao Xin stayed in Beihai Town for three days this time, during which he and Wang Zhong discussed the future imperial examination issues. Now that Beihai Town has not yet entered the customs, Wang Zhong has already started to prepare in advance.
This is a big project that cannot be covered by a simple "examination room rules", but involves the entire household registration, examination principles, procedures, legal penalties and a series of issues.
In fact, the imperial examination system in the Qing Dynasty still followed the Ming system. Official registration, Wei ancestral home, Zao registration, and commercial registration were all inherited from the Ming Dynasty. In addition to the addition of the imperial examination regulations for the Eight Banners, the province-based system of selecting officials was also unique to the Qing Dynasty.
In the Ming Dynasty, there was a zoning system.
Wang Zhong, Duan Yucai, Liu Taigong, and Hong Liangji first drew up an outline of Beihai Town's own regulations by referring to the Qing Dynasty's "Imperial Examination Regulations". Zhao Xin spent a day reading them roughly.
The next day, I expressed my opinions to Wang Zhong and others.
"It doesn't matter how many generations you are in this article. As long as you have never broken any laws, you can take the exam. I'm telling you, the Tongsheng Examination is just a qualification exam. How can you donate money?"
Although humble status was abolished during the Yongzheng era, in the thirty-sixth year of Qianlong's reign, it was stipulated that those who wanted to participate in the child examination from the five categories of happy households, lazy people, Dan households, fishermen with nine surnames, and beggars should count down from the time they changed their jobs.
It is only possible to reach the fourth generation, and all relatives in the family must be clean and have not broken any laws. You have to spend money to buy the exam qualifications.
Regarding the descendants of prostitutes and slaves, in the 35th year of Qianlong's reign, it was stipulated that the descendants of prostitutes and slaves were never allowed to take the exam. Even if their descendants were adopted by others, they were low-level direct descendants and dared to fool around.
Those who take the exam will be dealt with severely once discovered.
Sure enough, Hong Liangji asked reluctantly: "May I ask King Zhao, what happens to the prostitutes after they are sent to prison?"
Zhao Xin thought for a while and said: "Treat everyone equally."
As soon as this statement came out, everyone was shocked. Liu Tai said: "If this is the case, those people who have been innocent and law-abiding for generations will never agree."
Zhao Xin sneered and said: "It is necessary to abide by the law. Do you have to commit adultery and break the law? The more you think like this, the less likely will the descendants of those happy households, fish households and even prostitutes and officials to get ahead. People in this world
How many people are willing to put themselves below others? Who doesn’t want to study and do serious things? There is no need to talk about this matter. Beihai Town has even abolished slaves, and the school will not let anyone’s parents be beggars.
Just refuse it!"
"This..." Hong Liangji wanted to argue again, but Wang Zhong on the side kicked him lightly with his toes, and then helplessly handed over his hands and said: "I accept your order!"
Zhao Xin still left under A Miao's slightly disappointed eyes. It wasn't that he didn't want to take her with him, but it was just too far. It was more than 4,000 kilometers, and even driving a snowmobile at a speed of 100 kilometers per hour would take dozens of days.
If something happens on the way, it may not be there for two months. But Zhao Xin promised A Miao that he would definitely take her with him next time he goes out.
Both A Miao and Shen Xuan expressed disbelief in this regard.
...
On December 2, 1790, the carriage carrying the body of Field Marshal Rumyantsev of the Tsarist Empire arrived in Moscow under the spotlight. Catherine II came from St. Petersburg in the heavy snow, accompanied by her
, including the heads of the four main departments of the Senate of the Tsarist Empire, as well as the heads of the two departments of the Senate in Moscow. Except for those who are fighting the Turks, almost all Russian military generals and nobles came to express their condolences.
Even Potemkin from Moldova rushed back.
The condolence ceremony in Moscow was held at the famous "St. Basil's Cathedral" in Moscow. Afterwards, the marshal's coffin will be escorted by the Queen's Guards to Kiev and buried in the tomb of the Assumption Cathedral near the Pechersk Monastery.
In the garden, this was also Rumyantsev’s last wish before his death.
Fortunately, Rumyantsev died in late autumn and the weather in Siberia had turned cold, otherwise the queen and the nobles would have had no choice but to pay their respects to his ashes.
Many businessmen and citizens from Moscow, St. Petersburg, Kazan and even Little Russia also gathered outside St. Basil's Cathedral.
The sixty-one-year-old empress specially put on the military uniform that she had not worn for many years. She wanted to express her condolences to an imperial marshal.
"Many years ago, when I first came to this country from Germany, knowing nothing about its people and its courage, and not even speaking Russian, I heard about an 18-year-old count.
He served as the commander of the infantry regiment. When I fell in love with this country, after learning the news of the victory in the Battle of Veliky Yegelsdorf, I later learned more about Alexandrovich. This is a real
A great man who dedicated his spirit, enthusiasm, soul and even life to the country..."
Catherine II's speech was very long, almost twelve or three pages long. She felt that it was not enough to express her condolences to Rumyantsev, and she also hoped that in this way she could make up for her previous sympathy for Poland.
The indifference with which Jiang Jin ignored Rumyantsev.
"...Gentlemen, an evil enemy invaded our land. Zadunaysky dedicated his life for this, and countless brave soldiers also died on the battlefield. I personally believe in reason and also believe in
Justice given to us by God. God gave us this land, which is the result of the unyielding and hard struggle of the entire Russian people to build a new empire and strive to be recognized by the world. This is my Russia, your Russia, and all peoples
Russia, solemn and sacred, inviolable!"
The more the Queen talked, the angrier she became. Twenty-eight years have passed since she deposed her husband. She worked hard and conquered the country, and finally opened up 520,000 square kilometers of territory for the Tsarist Empire in Europe. The result was...
In the blink of an eye, millions of square kilometers of territory behind her were lost. This has seriously questioned her legitimacy since she ascended the throne. Now some nobles are already secretly working together to prepare for Grand Duke Paul to succeed to the throne.
To be honest, ever since she learned the news of Rumyantsev's defeat, she felt a little regretful. She did not dare to listen to Ivan Jacobi's instigation and start a war. Based on her years of understanding of her next door neighbor, she could not have imagined it.
What kind of person can be so bold as to challenge two huge empires at the same time?
The most important thing is, they actually won!
Zhao Xin's insidious thing was that he only released Suvorov alone, but not the others. So when Suvorov returned to St. Petersburg, in the face of his warning, both the nobles and the generals thought that he
Suvorov, who was scared out of his wits by the sudden attack by the group of Chinese rebels, could not defend himself at all. In the end, he could only resolutely join the war with the Turks and regain his honor with victory after victory.
However, now, as the news of the "Battle of Usolye" came back, the generals of Tsarist Russia knew that Suvorov had been wrongly accused.
At the end of her speech, the Queen once again repeated her famous saying: "...As long as I have enough life, I will defend my motherland with words, pen and sword!"
Patriotism never goes out of style, and Catherine II aroused everyone's emotions with her passionate speech.
"Long live the Queen!"
"Zadunayski is immortal!"
"Destroy those Chinese bandits! Cut off their heads!"
As the Queen's speech ended, the generals and nobles present raised their fists and started shouting. When the sound spread outside, the crowd who came to express condolences also began to shout, and everyone's emotions reached their peak.
After the condolence ceremony, the Queen immediately summoned the heads of various departments of the Senate and relevant military generals to hold a royal meeting in the palace. However, at the beginning of the meeting, the minister in charge of finance first reported bad news.
That is, there is not enough money. The correct statement is that once the Queen issues a general mobilization order, the treasury will soon be depleted.
The Sixth Russo-Turkish War has been going on for more than three years. The Tsarist Empire issued huge national debt for this war. Potemkin came back to attend the condolence ceremony, and Suvorov is now in charge of the Crimea side. At present,
The attack on Izmail Fortress has reached a critical moment. For this battle related to the capture of Crimea and Georgia, more than 30,000 ground troops and large and small ships are being assembled.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! No one here will be willing to eat the meat that is about to reach your mouth. And once the news of the Russian army’s failure in Siberia reaches Crimea,
It greatly shook the morale of the army.
"No! I have to issue a proclamation today. I will never forgive those Chinese people!" Catherine II knew that everyone was looking at her attitude. If she acted a little slowly, those who secretly supported her son would have something to do.
action, thereby threatening her throne. She told the finance minister: "Use the Crimean tax revenue for the next ten years as collateral to borrow money from those Jews! I have been so good to them over the years, and they must spend money to support me.
I!"
Stepan Ivanovich, who was in charge of intelligence, stood up and reported: "Now the group of Chinese calling themselves 'Beihai Town' has detained our officers and soldiers in a prisoner-of-war camp east of Usolye. It seems that
Their fate will be the same as those who came before in Yaksa."
"Would you like to spend money to redeem some officers first?" 53-year-old Potemkin interjected, and the queen immediately glared at her old lover.
Thirty-six-year-old Paul said justly: "Mother, let me lead the troops to teach those Chinese people a lesson this time! Let me do something for this country and share your worries."
The Queen said that there was no one who could make her worry free. She glanced at her son and said in a cold tone: "You and your wife and children stay at home, which is your greatest contribution to the country."
"Holy Mother, I suggest that we first organize a negotiation team to go to Krasnoyarsk to find out the true and false sides of our opponents." State Secretary Hrabovich hurriedly changed the subject in order to avoid embarrassment to Archduke Paul.
"Let the chief priest select two people from the members of the sixth mission to China who understand the Chinese character and are proficient in Chinese to accompany them," Catherine II agreed, and then said: "Tell those Chinese people to
Spit out all the territory of Siberia for me, not even an inch will be lost!"
