Han’s Son is Not a Slave

Li Shuitai's words are a bit insincere. His father, Li Yongfang, married the granddaughter of Nurhaci, the granddaughter of the Qing emperor, and the daughter of Abathai, one of the four major Baylors, and he himself married the daughter of the emperor's younger brother, Shuerhaqi. Now he has nine brothers, in addition to him being a high-ranking scholar and the governor of Guangdong and Guangxi, there is also a third brother Gangtai who is an official to the chief soldier of Xuanfu, Ren Zhenglanqi Gushan Ezhen's fifth brother Bayan, and the rest of the brothers are also They are all occupying important positions, and it is not an exaggeration to say that they are a noble.

Besides, looking at the eight banners of the Han army, how could a father and son marry a woman from the Aisin Gioro family? Therefore, his Li family does not belong to the Eight Great Families, and who dares to claim that his family is the Eight Great Families!

Except for Hong Shiming, everyone in the hall was Li Suotai's subordinates. Naturally, they would not slander the Governor's humility, but instead praised the achievements of the Li family.

Hong Shiming was also vulgar, and calmly said a few words about his father Hong Chengchou's usual praise for Li Jingtai, which immediately made Li Suotai feel a sense of achievement and a lot of face. It must be known that there are not many people in this world who can get Hong Chengchou's praise.

"Regardless of whether the imperial court really wanted to send me to Fujian and Zhejiang, as a subject, I would always do it according to the order. There were also two pirates in Fujian and Zhejiang, the Zheng family and the remnants of King Lu of Nanming harassing the mainland. The law and order were unstable, and the people's livelihood was also withering. It's not a bit easier than here in Guangdong, I have a long way to go."

Li Shuitai was moved, and suddenly heard a dissatisfied cry from a military officer's stomach. He was busy thinking that everyone was waiting for him in the flower hall, and he was afraid that he would not eat, so he quickly ordered to let the kitchen serve wine and food.

"The imperial court has not yet come down with an official will, so you don't have to worry too much, in case it is a false rumor." Zuo Qing advised.

"There is no ground for nothing, Hong Jinglue can write to me to mention this matter, and most of it can't be fake."

Li Suotai is also thinking about it now. If the court really sends him to Fujian and Zhejiang, he will go. Why bother about it.

"I don't really have anything to worry about here in Guangdong. Although the Xinhui is occupied by the Ming army, Chen Qice is not Li Dingguo. If you want to use the Xinhui to attack my Guangzhou city, I think it is more difficult for him than the sky. Sanjiangkou in the twelfth lunar month last year. World War I. The Ming army fought very badly. The only pity is that the elite soldiers of my green camp in Xinhui were buried."

Thinking that the elite soldiers of the Green Camp that he had finally reorganized and pulled out were buried by Shang Zhixin and killed as many as seven or eight thousand people, Li Suotai felt a lot of pain, and he hated Shang Zhixin's incompetence even more. Elite soldiers, how could the Taiping army capture Xiangshan and then capture Zengcheng in the blink of an eye.

The governor of Guangdong, Li Qifeng, who Zuo Qing had originally followed, was forced to leave Guangdong by Shang Kexi, so he did not like Shang Kexi. In addition, he also knew that the governor was a second feudal lord who did not deal with the city of Guangzhou openly or secretly, and he was also a court faction. to monitor the two feudal forces. Therefore, there is no need to hide anything in front of him, so he said quietly: "Prince Pingnan is a self-proclaimed leader, so it's okay to suffer a little setback."

Hong Shiming was an outsider. Although his father, Hong Chengchou, had a good relationship with Li Suotai, he also had a relationship with Shang Kexi. On the bright side, Shang Kexi and Geng Jimao were still under the command of Hong Chengchou, so he couldn't say anything to the Shang family.

The other military attachés from the Green Battalion were all drawn from the ranks by Li Suotai, and they were also used by Li Suotai to fight against the bannermen of the Second Domain of Peace and Jing. He was bullied very much by the generals under the two feudal lords. Hearing Zuo Qing's words, he immediately became ridiculed one by one.

Li Guibao was also at a loss for words at this time, seeing that everyone was talking vigorously. The master of his own didn't mean to stop him, so he also shouted: "What kind of generalist, I don't think he's as good as that kid from the Geng family."

Not wanting his words to provoke the anger of the master, Li Shuitai slapped the table several times and shouted angrily, "Slave dog, don't talk nonsense!"

"Slave dare not!"

Li Guibao was woken up and realized that this was not something he could say.

Hong Shiming only did not see each other, Zuo Qing and the others glanced at each other, both of them were silent.

At this time, the servants came up with the food and wine, and Li Suotai ordered the people to set the food and drink and avoided it. He raised his hand to signal everyone to eat. Although he had eaten at Hahamu, there was Hong Chengchou's son today. He also put down the air of governor and chatted with everyone while eating.

During the banquet, everyone did not mention what happened just now, and all they talked about were business affairs. Zuo Qing complained to Li Suotai, saying that the treasury was empty due to the construction of the Manchurian city, and now there is no money in the account. Can't sleep all day.

"I know about the treasury. You should deal with it first. I will explain this to the court and ask the court to allocate some money."

Li Suotai made a decision, Zuo Qing couldn't say anything else. Several military attachés from the Green Camp also reported to Li Suitai about the affairs of the camp, and they only agreed on a time to touch Xiaobanzhuxiang.

Hong Shiming waited for Li Suotai's subordinates to report to him before he brought up the Guangdong Township Exam.

Opening a division and taking scholars is the only way to recruit scholars in all dynasties. After the Manchu Qing occupied Guangzhou, they also wanted to open a township test to admit Guangdong scholars to become officials in the Qing Dynasty. After Li Suitai took office as the governor of Guangdong and Guangxi last year, he decided to take the matter of opening a division of Guangdong into his office. For this reason, he asked the Qing court to hold the first township examination in Guangdong this year~www.NovelMTL.com~ and then send it to the middle school. Scholars went to Beijing to take part in the examination, in order to show the Qing Dynasty's preferential treatment for Guangdong scholars, and to disintegrate the foundation of Nanming's rule in Guangdong.

The Qing court received Li Ruotai's remarks and agreed to the Guangdong township trial. Because the imperial examinations were considered by the Ministry of Rites, Shunzhi ordered the Ministry of Rites to send staff to Guangzhou to negotiate with the localities to hold specific affairs. The Man and Han court officials of the Ministry of Rites selected Hong Shiming, who was the head of the Ministry of Rites only last year, when discussing the candidates for the south. In this way, he sold a good person to Hong Chengchou in Hunan in disguise. As long as the Guangdong Township Exam is successfully held, Hong Shiming will definitely be able to take this credit to rise to the next level after returning to Beijing.

Hong Shiming spoke in detail, and Li Suotai also listened carefully. From time to time, he also asked what preparations Zuo Qing had made. When he learned that everything was ok, Li Suotai was very happy and swept away because someone in the court wanted to move him. The irritability of Fujian and Zhejiang, and the persuasion of everyone to drink is also open to everyone. ?

When the wine was drunk, a military attache from the green battalion talked about the battle of Xinhui again, saying that if the commander of the army at that time was not the Prince of Pingnan, but a good general, the battle of Xinhui would never have been fought like that.

What this person said made Li Suotai a little lost. After thinking for a long time, he suddenly slapped the back of his chair and laughed: "Speaking of a good general, how could I forget Wu Liuqi! This person is a general in command of the army. First-class, if you get him, won't you have this good general?" To be continued.
