The long list seemed endless, and all the officials who listened were a little bored. In fact, except for a few key positions that people cared about, there were many deputy positions that no one paid much attention to, or there was too much information today and they didn't have time to take it into consideration. These not-so-important posts!
The heads of the six ministries and the Prime Minister's Yamen are all key points, and then there is the military power!
How to deal with Xishan Camp depends on the political wisdom of the little emperor!
As if he was deliberately trying to titillate people, Er Mao pursed his lips and said nothing but raised his eyes to look at these people. He could see a lot of subtext in many people's eyes!
"Prince Chun Yi Pei, who is good at martial arts, has good military skills, and has a noble status... was awarded the title of first-class general of state control! Take over the military command of Xishan Camp!"
Yi Pei? The whole hall suddenly buzzed, and even Yixuan looked up at his fifth brother with confusion in his eyes!
How could it be Yi Pei? The fifth master of the capital has always been a typical uneducated person. How could he be responsible for such an important position?
Even Yi Pei himself was stunned, he couldn't believe his ears!
A different kind of feeling fills my heart! Although Yi Pei was born into an imperial family, he has never been favored by his father because he was the worst at studying since he was a child. Although he likes to practice martial arts and boxing, he is definitely not the type to write down war strategies!
He has a very rough personality and is not very careful. He practices martial arts just for fun and not for the purpose of becoming a general and leading troops!
Such a child who was not good at civil and military skills would not be liked by adults, so when he was fifteen years old, he was adopted as his son by the childless Prince Chun Miankai!
In other words, Yi Pei's throne was not given by his biological father, but inherited from his stepfather!
A stupid kid who didn't like to study since he was a child, finally let his biological father adopt him into someone else's home... This feeling cannot be felt by anyone who has not experienced it personally!
To say that there was no childhood trauma at all is nonsense. Having your own father run away at the age of fifteen would be hard on anyone else!
In other words, Yi Pei's unsparing character later had a lot to do with his childhood experiences. His biological father didn't want to see him, so he gave up on himself!
This knight-errant king Yipei wears a Gebu jacket worn by coolies in the summer, with his arms exposed and a cattail leaf fan chatting with the poor on the shore of Shicha Sea!
In the winter, I would wear a sheepskin coat and go to the meat shop to eat white meat casserole and drink it. When I was happy, I would invite people around me to drink it too!
These anecdotes have made him a knight-errant. Who among the royal princes understands the suffering of the people best? It’s up to the fifth master Yi Pei!
A person who is broken does not mean that he has no ideals, nor does it mean that he does not want to be recognized by others!
He didn't expect that he, who was disliked by his own father and brother by both emperors, would actually receive such a great gift from his nephew emperor!
I have no interest in being an official or anything like that, but this is an admission! This shows that Zai Chun thinks that I can still do it, that I can still be useful, and that I can still stand up!
Yi Pei couldn't express what he felt in his heart, but finally smiled bitterly and said, "Thank you for your wrong love, Your Majesty! But I know that I have these two brushes!"
"I can't even study or learn martial arts! Let alone manage the new army, I can't even manage the old battalion commander! I don't have any ink in my stomach, and I haven't read any military books! It's really not possible..."
Zai Chun suddenly stood up from the throne, walked quickly to Yi Pei, and grabbed the fifth uncle's hand with his own hands. "No! Uncle Emperor, you are wrong! No one can do this job except you!"
"What is running an army? The most difficult thing is to manage the morale of the army. Only when the military is united can it be effective! There are hundreds of generals, big and small, in the Xishan Camp. Who can control their morale?"
"Only you! The chivalrous king of the capital, only you, the imperial uncle of the current dynasty, can do it! The sixth uncle is ill, and the seventh uncle has errands to do... At this time, if my nephew doesn't rely on you, who else can the fifth uncle rely on?"
"Your Majesty... I..." Yi Pei felt warm in his heart. It felt so good to be taken seriously by others!
"Fifth uncle! Don't refuse... It doesn't matter if you don't understand military affairs, just pay close attention to people's hearts... I will send you a knowledgeable assistant!"
"An old friend of the Hunan Army, the Admiral General Gordon who was the victorious army back then! He is your deputy. If you have any training or tactical matters in the future, just ask him!"
Oops... Now the ministers were in an uproar, and Yixuan was the first to jump out, "No! Absolutely no! The Xishan Battalion is an important force that defends our capital of the Qing Dynasty. How can we allow foreign devils to serve as military attachés?"
"Hey? What Uncle Qi said is wrong!" Zai Chun said with a sneer, "What's going on with the French instructor Xie Dowan? He has been commanding the troops to fight!"
"Then...that Xie Duowan is just an instructor!"
"That's good! Now that we have a French instructor, there is no shortage of a British instructor... let Gordon join the camp as an admiral instructor!"
"Stop talking about it. This Xishan Camp is commanded by Prince Chun. He is the one who helps with ideas! You can't go wrong... nothing will happen!"
Yi Pei's heart also sank. He finally understood the purpose of this nephew, which was to use his identity to suppress the ministers. The purpose was to get Gordon, the big guy, into the mix!
High! It’s really high! This Zai Chun is really not simple!
Zai Chunfang looked at the ministers who had lowered their eyebrows and said calmly, "It's only three months since my wedding. During this period, all ministries must run their errands well and never cause trouble again!"
"Finally, I have some good news for you all!"
"Although the imperial court and the Chinese people did not reach a final unified opinion on the conflict that night, after my repeated arguments, the Chinese people have already made certain concessions!"
"Let's not talk about who is responsible. The head of state of the Chinese nation has sent a telegram admitting that the use of military force to rescue Chairman Huang was inappropriate! He also expressed his condolences to the people of the capital who were killed!"
"The head of state stated in the telegram that no matter what the final outcome of the negotiations is, he will grant a batch of pensions as a humanitarian measure!"
"All soldiers who died in the battle, regardless of Manchu or Han, were provided with an iron-wood coffin by the Chinese... At this moment, the wood has been loaded in Nanyang and prepared for shipment to the north!"
"For those who died in war, the Chinese will provide a humanitarian pension of 5,000 silver dollars, and the disabled will be given a disability pension of 2,000-1,000 silver dollars according to the severity of their injuries!"
"Preliminary estimates indicate that the total pension provided by the Chinese will exceed 3.5 million silver dollars!"
As soon as the numbers came out, all the officials in the palace couldn't believe their ears: "Have we really negotiated compensation? Is Xiao Letian really bowing his head? Although 5,000 silver dollars per life is a bit small, but it is better than nothing at all!"
Zai Chun looked at Baiguan's wonderful expressions and felt extremely proud in his heart: "You can't believe it! You don't dare talk about it! I don't know how to deal with the difficult errands, but I have done it for you today!"
"My dear friends! Don't complain about difficulties all the time! There are always more solutions than difficulties!"
"Give me thirty years! I will give you a truly peaceful and prosperous Qing Empire!"
