The most important duty of the Jingshifang is to take care of sexual affairs. The so-called "person who specializes in the emperor's sexual intercourse". Whenever the emperor and a woman roll the sheets on the bed, the people in the Jingshifang must keep detailed records. However, The deputy general manager of the Jingshifang was just a sixth-grade official with a humble official position. It can be said that Li Zhen almost knocked Andehai to the bottom.
In fact, if the emperor was in his prime, he would not be bad at being the manager of the royal affairs room.
Because if the emperor wants to sleep with a woman, he has to turn the tables, and the manager in charge of the royal affairs room will naturally be favored by the concubines in the harem. He can have a lot of oil and water, and can also have a relationship with the harem empress. It is easy for him to rise to the top, but now the little emperor has been He was not old enough to sleep with a woman. He went to the guest room and had nothing to do.
Such a hopeless job made Andehai extremely disappointed.
He looked at Ci'an with a look of longing in his eyes.
At the moment, Ci'an and Cixi can only save him, and he can only hope for his two masters.
Seeing Li Zhen's strength, Cixi sighed in her heart, but she slightly raised her voice and said in a deep voice: "King Zhennan, Ai Jia is the queen mother of the current dynasty and the biological mother of the emperor. If the relationship between King Zhennan and Ai Jia breaks down, what will happen to you?" No one is good. He Guiqing and Li Xuyi are the ministers. The Ai family will not fight for it, but they will retain the governorship. At the same time, Andehai will continue to serve as the chief eunuch. King Zhennan is already a king with a different surname in the Qing Dynasty. The auxiliary minister has all the power in the world. I hope the King of Zhennan will think twice. If the situation reaches an irreversible point, it will not be good for anyone, especially the King of Zhennan."
Threat, this is a naked threat.
Ande Hai, Li Xuyi, He Guiqing and others showed joy in their eyes.
Li Zhen didn't expect Cixi to say these words. He secretly thought that this woman's psychological quality was indeed good. Unfortunately, Li Zhen had no intention of compromising. He knew one thing very well. When competing for power with Cixi and Ci'an, he must not compromise. , once they compromise, they will resort to the same threats next time, so Li Zhen is determined this time.
If you want to clean it up, you have to clean it up ruthlessly.
Li Zhen raised his head and straightened his chest, and said with a fearless expression: "A gentleman's words are hard to follow. As the auxiliary minister of the current dynasty, I will not change what I said, and I must do what needs to be done."
Cixi's face changed drastically, and she felt that the Li Zhen in front of her was really different.
In the past, when Li Zhen led his army to Nanjing, he was polite to them, but now he feels that he is aggressive at every turn, leaving no room for anything. In fact, Cixi and Ci'an did not even think about it, and they were plotting to take away Li Zhen's family. Rights, this is already in opposition to Li Zhen, and when it comes to a power struggle, Li Zhen will definitely not be soft-hearted. Whoever is soft-hearted will be killed in the end.
Cixi said in a deep voice: "King Zhennan, have you considered this carefully?"
Finally, she couldn't help but ask again.
Li Zhen smiled slightly and said: "I want to say, has the Queen Mother really thought about it clearly?"
While speaking, Li Zhen's eyes fell on the little emperor. The corners of his mouth curled up, and a stern look appeared on his cold face. There was a cold and murderous intention all over his body, as if he was choosing someone to eat. of beast.
When Cixi saw this, she suddenly shuddered.
She immediately understood that Li Zhen was threatening the little emperor. If the two sides really broke up, Li Zhen would not care about the life or death of the little emperor. In addition, the world was divided, and the Taiping Army, Nian Army, and foreigners were causing chaos one after another. , and Yi is in the north, the whole country is in chaos, who cares about the life and death of the little emperor.
Cixi sighed, feeling a deep sense of powerlessness deep in her heart.
When Li Zhen saw this, he turned around and left.
Andehai stayed in the palace, but certainly could not stay with Cixi and Ci'an any longer, while He Guiqing, Li Xuyi and Xu Naizhao were detained by soldiers and could no longer leave Nanjing.
Li Zhen asked the soldiers to control the situation in the palace, and asked someone to find Han Laiyu.
In the hall, the guests and hosts were seated.
Han Laiyu was the first to say: "King Zhennan, do you have anything to do with the Za family?"
Li Zhen smiled and said: "Eunuch Han knows what is going on in the palace today."
Han Laiyu said: "I know a little bit."
Li Zhen said with a smile: "There are changes in the palace. I would like to ask Eunuch Han to be the chief eunuch and take care of the situation in the palace for me. What does your father-in-law wish?" Regarding matters in the harem, Li Zhen did not have too much energy. To take care of them one by one, more energy must be put on the big things. Besides, Li Zhen didn't want a fire in the backyard when he went on an expedition, so he had to find someone he could trust.
There is no doubt that Han Laiyu is the best candidate.
Han Laiyu looked at Li Zhen and could already feel Li Zhen's ambition, because Li Zhen no longer paid attention to the people in the palace and began to control the women in the palace.
The person in front of me is probably Cao Cao and his ilk.
Of course, this is also caused by the situation in the world. It is said that great talents emerge in troubled times. Now that the world is in chaos, Li Zhen has an opportunity. If it were a peaceful age, it would be difficult for Li Zhen to realize his ambitions. This era gave Li Zhen's ambitions to take root and sprout. Given the opportunity, Han Laiyu took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "King Zhennan, if you agree to a condition for the Zajia family, the Zajia family will obey the instructions of King Zhennan."
Li Zhen waved his hands and said, "Say."
Han Laiyu said: "No matter what happens, I hope that King Zhennan will save the emperor's life. This is the only flesh and blood of the late emperor. The Za family has only this condition and nothing else."
Li Zhenxiao said: "Okay, Eunuch Han is very happy."
Han Laiyu bowed respectfully to Li Zhen, turned around and left the hall.
…
A month goes by in a blink of an eye.
In the blink of an eye, it was already October. During this period, Li Xiucheng, the temporary commander of the 3rd Division, Smith, the commander of the 4th Division, and Zhou Xiuying, the commander of the 5th Division, all three of them were training their troops on a regular basis.
Previously, the open recruitment of three people had ended, and now it was a large-scale training of soldiers. At the same time, Li Zhen had replaced the governor of Zhejiang, the governor of Anhui, and the governor of Jiangsu with his own people. Li Zhen kept Li Xuyi, He Guiqing and others had already made up their mind to deal with this person. Even if there was no problem, they could still fabricate the problem. In addition, the people who went to the provinces had indeed found out that these three guys were not good birds, so Li Zhenli confidently dismissed the three of them. With his official position, he controlled three provinces.
As for Cixi and Ci'an in the palace, they have died down.
The two hit a brick wall with Li Zhen and could no longer shake Li Zhen. In addition, the palace was still controlled by the eunuch Han Laiyu. Li Zhen had already monitored the harem. In this case, Cixi and Ci'an did not There is no privacy at all and it is difficult to pose a threat to Li Zhen.
In the city, the military camp.
Li Zhen took Huang Shihai to check the condition of the soldiers. He had already made it clear that he wanted to ensure the combat effectiveness of the soldiers. However, when recruiting soldiers, countless people swarmed in and easily recruited three divisions of soldiers. Everyone knew that Li Zhenquan dominated the government and the opposition, and Li Zhenquan was treated well in the army and had the opportunity to perform meritorious service, so it was easy to recruit soldiers.
When the number of people is enough, problems will arise.
Combat effectiveness must be improved.
Every seven days, Li Zhen would enter the army and conduct a major inspection. In one month, Li Zhen had already inspected four times. This time, Li Zhen came to the army to inspect the training status of the soldiers. Li Zhen knew that the army was his. Fundamentally, without the army, he would not be where he is today. Without the army, he would not be able to stand firm, so he attaches great importance to it.
Li Zhen made a tour and returned to the Chinese army's tent.
Li Zhen asked: "Commander Huang, how often do soldiers in the army compete?"
Huang Shihai said: "I competed once in Guangzhou in the past, but not now."
Li Zhen shook his head slightly and said seriously: "Working behind closed doors is the most inefficient way of training. To make the soldiers in the army become howling wolves, there must be sweetness and comparison, so as to stimulate the soldiers to the greatest extent. , appropriate part of the money as a reward for the competition, or better firearms as a reward, must arouse the enthusiasm of the soldiers."
After a pause, Li Zhen continued: "The three divisions stationed in Nanjing must have healthy competition. Let them compete with each other and advance with each other. If you are from the martial arts world, you must know that any martial arts master or a grandmaster in the martial arts world will definitely challenge you. Only by being certified by countless people and countless martial arts masters can we achieve great results. Soldiers in our army cannot train behind closed doors, do you understand?"
"yes."
Huang Shihai nodded, his eyes sparkling.
Li Zhen's words gave him great inspiration.
"Report."
The soldiers' shouts came, and the tent door curtain was rolled up. A soldier walked into the tent, raised his hand and saluted Li Zhen, and said loudly: "Commander, Mr. Zheng said that your old friend from Beijing is here, please go back immediately. "
"An old friend from Beijing."
Li Zhen raised his eyebrows and secretly wondered who his old friend in Beijing was.
Could it be Guiliang?
Li Zhen thought for a moment, but then shook his head secretly. As Yi's father-in-law, Guiliang was also good at observing people's actions, and he was also the Minister of Military and Aircraft in the DPRK. It was definitely impossible for anything to happen. But, who came to Beijing? Li Zhen Zhen Zhen was also a little anxious, so he immediately left the military camp and headed towards Zhennan Prince's Mansion. Soon, Li Zhen returned to the mansion. When Li Zhen walked into the hall and saw the people standing in the hall, his face suddenly changed. The smile blossomed.
"Brother Ji Gao, why are you here?"
Li Zhen looked happy and strode towards the hall.
Ji Gao is Zuo Zongtang's character.
The old friend from Beijing was Zuo Zongtang. In the past, when Li Zhen was in Beijing, he had talked with Zuo Zongtang several times. The two had a good conversation because they were close friends. Later, Yi rebelled, and Li Zhen took the little emperor and Cixi under his control. He went south with Ci'an, but Zuo Zongtang stayed in Beijing. Li Zhen felt deeply regretful.
After all, it would be a waste for such a handsome talent to stay in Beijing.
Unexpectedly, Zuo Zongtang came to Nanjing. Zuo Zongtang was extremely happy when he saw Li Zhen's expression of joy. Although the person in front of him was already the King of Zhennan, his temperament remained unchanged and he was still like this. Bold and casual.
Zuo Zongtang could not be rude, he cupped his fists and said: "Zuo Zongtang, a common man, has met the prince."
"Grass people."
Li Zhen blinked and said: "Brother Ji Gao is a doctor in the Ministry of War. How did he become a commoner? Is it possible..."
Li Zhen's heart began to beat. Zuo Zongtang became a grassroots man. Didn't this give him a chance? Li Zhen's heart began to beat loudly, and his eyes flashed with excitement. Before this, Li Zhen had been in contact with There are a series of celebrities, but there are almost no people who can really take it for their own use, because none of the people under his command can leave a significant mark in history.
However, the person in front of him left a brilliant mark in history. Before Zuo Zongtang could speak, Li Zhen said again: "Brother Ji Gao, what is going on."
"Oh, it's hard to put it into words." Zuo Zongtang sighed.
