"I know His Majesty's anger. In fact, I am also furious. I wish I could deal with these rats, but there is no way. These rats are also the foundation of the Qing Dynasty!"
"Without the Eight Banners, Your Majesty, do you think the Qing Kingdom still exists? Is the Qing Kingdom still the Qing Kingdom? How can the Manchus call themselves Manchus?"
"Nowadays, in the Eight Banners, it can be said that everyone is corrupt! The prince has his own way of corruption, and the treasury has his own way of corruption. They still have a master-slave relationship and two hundred years of marriage and intermarriage, forming a Huge network of connections!”
"One move can affect the whole body. If you kill one, you will offend a group of people!"
"Hey... officialdom has been like this since ancient times. Do you still remember that during the 10,000th year of Emperor Kangxi's reign, there was an official named Ren Bo'an who secretly made a record of hundreds of officials. The records in it were all evidence of corruption among officials. It’s black material!”
"He used these secret files to coerce officials to continue to provide more secret evidence of corruption. He influenced each one one by one and finally produced a report of hundreds of officials. He had almost all the evidence of corruption among the corrupt officials in the court at that time!"
"This person also dedicated the Hundred Officials' Journey to Ba Ye's faction to help Ba Ye control the officials so they can compete for the great treasure!"
"In the end, the country was fortunate that Yongzheng solved this major case, and the official records fell into the hands of Yongzheng!"
"But Your Majesty! At that time, Emperor Yongzheng did not use these hundreds of officials to solve the cases one by one, but burned them with a fire!"
"Why is this? Your Majesty, think about it. Even with Yongzheng's iron-fisted methods, you don't even dare to uncover this dark curtain!"
"It's not because Lord Yongzheng knows that although these bastards all deserve to die, they have formed a real court!"
"Take them all to justice? Kill them all...The imperial court will be paralyzed. You won't have a second set of officials to fill them in, and the Qing Dynasty will be completely in chaos!"
"It's the same now... I killed these treasury officers just to break the chain of evidence for tracing the princes and Baylors. I can imagine that all the princes will be very frightened tomorrow when they know the news about the treasury officers!"
"They are afraid that your majesty will cause you to go to jail, afraid that you will want their heads... they are afraid that they will jump over the wall in a hurry! Once they start making trouble, if nothing else, they will not be able to hide the news!"
"And these people formed the huge Eight Banners, and you killed them all? Now everyone is greedy and corrupt! How many more can you kill?"
"It's better to use the heads of these little mice to make the big mice feel at ease. When they look back, they can remember His Majesty's kindness and support His Majesty for a long time!"
"I only have this little thought in mind. Please give me your Majesty's enlightenment!"
Baojun had already explained everything clearly, and all he had to do was to tell Emperor Tongzhi directly that you cannot create a prison. If you clean up the entire Eight Banners palace and nobles, then the Eight Banners will rebel!
He didn't say it clearly but Emperor Tongzhi could understand. He sat on the chair with tears in his eyes, "What are you doing? What are you doing?"
"The Qing Dynasty is our Eight Banners' rice bowl! How can we eat from the bowl and still throw rocks into the pot? Do we have to destroy the Qing Dynasty?"
"We are all in the same boat, why do we have to sink the boat?"
"The pot broke and the ship sank. Didn't they themselves have nothing to eat? It's such a truth that even a child understands, why don't they understand it?"
"No, no, no...it's not that they don't understand, it's that they are too smart. Of course they know the truth, but the truth cannot stop their greed!"
"Everyone wants to get an extra piece of meat in the pot to eat. If they miss a spoonful of soup, they feel that they are at a disadvantage. As for whether they will knock over the pot while grabbing the meat, that is not a problem they think about!"
"Anyway, if the sky falls, there will be someone taller to hold it up. Master said...under the avalanche, all the snowflakes think they are innocent!"
"Hey... I am already heartbroken. I no longer have the strength to be angry... This is the Qing Dynasty! How long can I support you? If I die... who can save you!"
Zai Chun sighed sadly, tears welling up in his eyes and he was almost convulsing from crying!
"Your Majesty!" Baojun took a few steps on his knees and hugged Emperor Tongzhi's legs with red eyes. "Your Majesty! You can't be depressed. Our court can still be saved. The general trend is still good!"
"This is a hurdle and a disaster in the process of ZTE!"
"If the food is gone, we can buy it. If the money is gone, we can break up the loans... Even if we can't get food or money, we can't help the victims, and the Qing Dynasty will not fall!"
"During the turmoil, tens of millions of people in Jiangnan died. Was the imperial court dead? No..."
"Now even if these victims are starving to death, those ordinary people can still survive, won't wildfires burn them all!"
"When have there been no disasters in the past dynasties? Didn't hundreds of thousands or millions of people starve to death that time? Hundreds of millions of people in the Qing Dynasty died of tens of millions without breaking their bones!"
"Your Majesty! You must have such a big-picture view to govern the country...it's not okay to take human life too seriously!"
Zai Chun wiped away his tears, "Yes, I can't be too weak. How do you think we should deal with it now?"
"Your Majesty, the first priority of the imperial court at this moment is not to track down the rats, but to stabilize the situation and prevent it from getting worse. We would rather sacrifice the tens of millions of victims than the safety of the capital!"
"The first thing is to buy food as soon as possible. Now we can only ask for help from the Chinese. We can buy as much food as we have. Let's book three million dan first. If we don't have money, we will take out loans from foreign and Chinese banks!"
"The second is to stabilize the situation in the disaster area. I'm afraid we don't have much food to give to these victims. The food in Jiangnan is not enough for us to distribute a little bit. We must be prepared for civil unrest, so please Your Majesty starts to mobilize the army to prepare for the flow of refugees. !”
"Third, tomorrow I will prepare a batch of grain and transport it from the granary in the city to the disaster area with great fanfare, saying it is for disaster relief. Then, after leaving the city, I will secretly transport it back to other official warehouses in the capital to appease people's hearts!"
"Fourth, Your Majesty, you must control all the princes. Your Majesty can let them go, but you must also let them know their sins!"
Baojun said that he was already crying and couldn't help himself, "Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!"
"But now it seems... Wuwuwu... Tens of millions of victims may die in the four northern provinces, Wuwuwu..."
Baojun howled bitterly and the entire courtyard was as silent as death!
At this moment, Prince Dun's decree had already ordered the soldiers to be hoisted out of the city along the ropes. A thousand elite troops were dispatched to the two camps in Tongzhou and Kunming Lake.
In company units, they quickly marched towards the old seven warehouses in the outer city. Another group of soldiers went straight to several newly built official warehouses along the railway.
The marching team in the dark night disturbed countless people's homes. The sound of barking dogs kept coming and going, and the chaos was not peaceful!
