C37 Parties' Reactions

In the spring of the fourth year, Tongzhi was destined to have many troubles. If Xiao Letian's《 Journey to the West》 could be said to have stirred book reader's spirits in the beginning, then the concept of Industrial Zones could be considered as truly shocking to the entire court.

After Xiao Letian left the Prince Gong's Mansion, in just a day's time, all the teahouses and streets of the Northern Capital City were filled with discussion about this Special Administrative Region.

"Aiyo, Yellow Lord!" Lucky for you, are you drinking here? Have you heard that Alone overseas offered a trick on Bidens by changing four words to a Second Rank vice minister … "

I know, I know, I've gone completely crazy today. Those book reader were so angry that he wanted to eat someone, no wonder he has been studying hard for so many years, once he enters the government, he will only be at the sixth or seventh level of cultivation, and even if he reaches the second level, his hair will probably go white.

"That's right, those Han Chen people are all eager to get their name. If it wasn't for those surnamed Xiao who knew when to advance and when to retreat, they would have rejected Bidens on the spot. I'm afraid that another large group of Han Lin would have gone to Xiao Letian's home today …"

"Haha, let's ignore their headache!" No matter how many times we win, it's still a piece of cake. It's said that the most expensive is the Pure Fortune, and those who can enjoy the good fortune are all lucky, right? "

"Yellow Lord's knowledge is indeed extraordinary, but Brothers, I really thought about it and heard the news from the Prince Gong's Mansion. If this Industrial Zones succeeded, then it would be the second willow tree, our Manchu's steel-like crops, and the place we chose would be very busy with the foreigners. At that time, won't everyone have jobs to work?"

"Aiya, you're still the smartest. Looks like you really have to keep an eye on this matter …"

In contrast to Manchu's excitement was the anger of Wen Chen of the Clear Stream and the unwillingness of the Chinese officials. There was no need to talk about the Qing Liu team. In any case, they were still alive from just talking. No matter what policy they were up to, they would still scold them. Let's talk about Ceng Guoquan, the representative of the Chinese officials, and think about what Xiao Letian said during the past two days.

Ceng Guoquan was more clear than anyone else what the Daqing looked like. Everyone hoped to gain more power when the three forces got entangled with each other. If Xiao Letian's Industrial Zones plan really began to be tested, then the first choice would definitely be the south. After all, that was the place where the first trade with the foreigners took place.

"This Xiao Letian really knows how to give me a hard time. Isn't this purposely letting Manchu burrow into my sphere of influence?" "If there really is such a thing as a foreign large iron plant, Military Plant, Machinery Factory, then there's no need to talk about it too much. I can't even afford the production of 100,000 Speargun per year. It's not a blessing for a Chinese like Manchu to swiftly equip them …"

"No, this Baby definitely cannot be gifted to Manchu. Luckily, you, Davy, did not agree to it back then, or else your fate would have been hard to predict." Thinking about this, Ceng Guoquan shouted, "Somebody, give Wang Shizheng my treasured mountain ginseng, Laozi, and I will make friends with this group of Han Lin..."

nine commander had always loved to do things that displeased Manchu. In his heart, his biggest dream was to overthrow the Manchu and let his brother be Zhao Kuangyin. As for whether or not he could act like Zhao Kuangyi, that was hard to say. Retreat second, if this dream is not achieved, Ceng Guoquan also hopes to be able to control the rich south of the Yangtze River for a long time.

This was not only Ceng Guoquan's own idea, but also the idea of many generals of Xiang Jun. These military groups with the Family and his friends as the core, had controlled the political and economic situation of Jiangnan with ease. How could they simply hand them over to the court?

Tongzhi, who had been in the faction of court for nine years, was actually assassinated in public after the military parade at the drill grounds. Furthermore, the murderer did not even try to run away but instead shouted 'I, Zhang Wen Xiang, am Assassin'.

Not only that, a few days after Ma Xinyi's death, Jiangnan actually produced countless operas that mocked Ma Xinyi, turning Ma Xinyi's extortion of bandits into prisoners and surrendered, and also into a play about how to bribe high-ranking officials. It could be said that he completely annihilated Ma Xinyi mentally and physically.

This was the real history of the Four Great Strange Cases of late Qing, the 'Thorn Horse' case. From this, it could be seen that Xiao Letian did not jump onto one of the boats prematurely. It was a wise decision since Governor of two rivers was willing to kill as he pleased, not to mention two evil spirits.

Just as Ceng Guoquan began to send people to meet Qingliu Leader, Yi, the brother-in-law of the Forbidden City's Kunning Palace, was sitting on a chair across from Xiao Letian. The woman watching Xiao Letian's scheme was his second sister-in-law, Ci Xi.

Ci Xi was only 30 years old, and was at the age where women were in full bloom. Leaning on the bed, he looked at the Recital. A woman that could charm Emperor of Great Qing, how could she not be beautiful?

Yi Yuan had a good relationship with this sister-in-law. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been so supportive towards a 20 year old girl in Sin-uni coup d'état. However, Ci Xi's position of authority became more and more stable, so Yi wouldn't dare to act impudent like usual. He only stole a few glances at Ci Xi from the corner of his eyes.

Ci Xi had long noticed his brother-in-law's crafty look and laughed secretly in his heart, "This Ai Xinjueluo's family is really older than his. How could we, Ye Hannala, be defeated by them?" Thinking up to here, Ci Xi put down the secret book.

"It's been hard on you, Uncle. For the sake of us, mother and son, you've really troubled yourself …" To be honest, I really didn't expect two evil spirits to come up with such a solution. First, it was just a small experiment to make Wu Tie speechless. Even if it doesn't work, it's just a small circle. We, the Daqing, must get our spirits up, otherwise, this group of foreigners will definitely bully us, but we, Manchu, do not have many people who can really get our spirits up … "

"Uncle, we really don't know much about these things. If you don't find someone who knows how to control these, I won't dare to nod my head, because there's still a buddha in Forbidden City …"

Yi Yan said regretfully, "I don't know what's going on with this Xiao Letian, but I've already given him a rank two and he still doesn't agree. He said he's going to the Oceanic, it's so useless …"

"Hehe, I think this two evil spirits is smarter than you. He who has eaten seafood is smarter than you, he's only been back for a few days, you think he dares to jump into this pool without any foundation? Eat him alive … Don't be in such a hurry, I've thought over this matter in advance. "You, Ai Xinjueluo, have a good, promising Relatives that you don't need. What a waste …

Bidens was shocked by Ci Xi's words, "Our family's good Relatives?" The corner of Ci Xi's mouth curled. The look in his eyes almost hooked the soul of Yi Ke.

"Fuche and your family doesn't have Relatives? He is the descendant of the High School Kaiser, and is not a cousin of yours? "I've asked around. Up till now, Fu Kangan's branch has a guy called Fu Qing. He's a promising child who was guarding the Mausoleum in the West Tomb years ago. He's known as Little Li Guang, and is much better than those who only know about teahouses and opera gardens …"

"This child has a good relationship with Xiao Letian. I heard that it was formed when we met bandit. Tell me, is this not ironclad?" "Tell him to step forward and take the lead, do you think Xiao Letian won't help him …"

Speaking of which, she slapped her thigh. "Aiya, my good sister-in-law, you really are a heroine. Why didn't I think of him? I even saw him walking on the street last month." "That's right, the right one is Relatives. According to seniority, it should be Your Majesty's Cousin …"

Ci Xi saw the light in Fu Hui's eyes when she said Fu Hui's name. At that time, they all laughed in anger, "You bunch of stinky men are all a bunch of cheating cats …" Little An, take someone out to see my flowers, don't let the wind blow them away.

The 'Little An' that Ci Xi spoke of was the famous An Dehai. This fellow was extremely shrewd, and understood that with a wave of his hand, the eunuch, palace maid, was gone. When Yi Xiao saw this, his heart was as clear as a mirror. He smiled obscenely as he climbed onto the bed. Not long later, the two of them rolled onto the floor.

Just as the Palace of Kun Ning was putting on a play for the Spring Palace, in flower alley Qing San Ye's house, Fu Qing was arguing with Xiao Letian.

"Tell me, how could you be so stupid? That's a second-rate item, so you can just push it away as you please? [You want to be Trader? You must be crazy!] Could it be that you are afraid that even a second grade Acupoint Charging equipment will not be able to support you? " Fu Qing resented Xiao Letian, he was truly thinking for Brothers.

Xiao Letian did not care, as he thought to himself, even if a second rank top quality item made him greedy, it would only cost him a few hundred thousand taels of silver a year. Even if he mixed with the work department Minister, there would only be a difference of one million between them, compared to his own business plan, it was too small.

He grabbed Xiao Letian's wrist and said, "Go, I will bring you to the Prince Gong's Mansion, I will take you to visit the Prince Gong's Mansion, I have Relatives with me, I will apologize for you …" With that, she dragged him out.

Xiao Letian wasn't as strong as him, so he just dragged him outside the door. "Aiya, let go of him. What are you doing?" Do cows press their heads against water? "Help, someone come quickly …" Fu Hui, who was putting on makeup in the inner chamber, was called out before she could say anything.

"Eh? The two of them were still talking nicely just a moment ago, how did they get into a fight? Since Xiao brother has resigned, there must be a reason behind it. What is there to say! " After saying that, he pulled and pulled the two of them apart.

Xiao Le Tian looked at the surrounding people and said to Fu Qing in a low voice, "Master San, why aren't you enlightened? At that time, who else besides the prince was by my side? It was Nine Marshal Ceng GuoQuan, who was Ceng Guoju? "He's the younger brother of Teng Guofan, the marshal of Teng Guofan's five hundred thousand men, the commander of half a mountain in the south …"

"You, you, you, you … What do you mean? You suspect Zeng Family Brothers! " Qing San Ye's face turned pale.

"Humph!" I have a problem with seeing people first, until all the bad things rule out me from trusting him. I don't dare to say whether Zeng Family Brothers has the heart to rebel, but the huge Army can't possibly not be on guard. Right now, you should know what the Daqing looks like too … "

"The foreigners, the Qing Liu, the Royal Family and the Han Chinese, daoyin, whose power has greatly increased, are in the most chaotic period. I'm a foreigner, I have no foundation at all. Can I jump inside? "Other than Qing Liu, anyone else can crush me to death …"

At this point, Lili suddenly said, "Fu Qing, I think what Mr. Xiao said is reasonable. I am a woman who should not talk about politics, but you know that I often chat with the families of the princes and Guijiao. In addition to the words, I can also feel the feeling that Xiao brother was talking about. Brothers, if you have something to say in the future, you should listen to Xiao brother more! "

Wu Tie let out a long sigh. He knew he was being reckless, "Forget it. Big Sister, go arrange some food and wine. It's getting late for us to have a drink tonight with Brothers …" At this moment, Housekeeper suddenly trotted all the way in, panting heavily.

"Young master, quickly change your clothes …" Prince Gong's Mansion... "Housekeeper is here. He said that Prince summoned you urgently and told you to go quickly …"

"Ah!" Fu Hui was so shocked that her chair was overturned. "Did you say anything?" Housekeeper just shook his head, "He didn't say anything. I stuffed 200 taels of silver but still couldn't get anything out of him. It seems like he doesn't know either.

At this time, Xiao Letian suddenly laughed, "Hahaha, San Ye, you can go without worry. I feel like there's a good thing to come in for." "Don't worry, I won't leave. I'll stay here to drink and wait for you. If there's no good news, I'll stay here …"
