    It¡¯s a blessing, not a curse, it¡¯s a curse that cannot be avoided!  Moreover, Yang Du also said that Chen Kuilong played the "Li Daitao Zhan" trick and it was Qingjun Wang Yikuang who was in charge.

    In addition to being afraid of his wife, this prince also has a fatal weakness: he is greedy for money.  Anyone who asks for something from him must pay a favor. Even the King of Heaven has to scrape off three taels of gold powder.  Otherwise, no way!  During the Gengzi Revolution, Cen Chunxuan served as an escort and visited Yikuang on the orders of Lafayette. He couldn't even enter the gate of Prince Qing's Mansion without giving him a doorstep!

    In the late Qing Dynasty, there were two "companies" that were famous for a while. Their business was very special, specializing in selling officials and titles.  It¡¯s all related to this prince:

    A company called "Lao Qingji Company" is located in the residence of Prince Qing and is Yikuang's sole proprietorship.  It is said that there is a brocade box on Yi Kuang's desk, which contains the list of officials from various places and the list of vacancies.  He would select positions from the gifts given by the visitors and assign them to them.

    The other company is called "Qingna Company". It is a joint venture jointly established by Yikuang, his son Zai Zhen, and Na Tong, the Minister of Military Aircraft who share a common hobby. It specializes in taking large orders and does not look down on business below the governor at all!

    Yuan Shikai took aim at Yi Kuang's hobby and tried every means to win over him with huge sums of money to make him his internal support in the court.  Later, Yuan Shikai poached corners of the Qing government, formed cliques in the army, and smeared local affairs. Yikuang not only turned a blind eye, but sometimes even tipped off information and used it as a cover-up.  Therefore, this **** who was finally awarded the title by the Qing court was still a great hero who ruined the Qing Dynasty.

    Of course, even if the Qing Dynasty is destroyed, it will basically have no impact on Comrade Yikuang.  In 1911, when the Beijing government was in turmoil, his deposits in HSBC alone reached a huge amount of 2 million taels.  With such huge sums of money, where can I go but live like a prince?

    I don¡¯t know how much wind Fujin blew, or how much money Chen Kuilong spent, so that Yikuang could drive Zhao Erxun, who had just been changed from the governor of Sichuan to the governor of Huguang five months ago, back to Sichuan!

    Sun Yuanqi asked: "Xizi, when did Chen Xiaoshi be transferred to the governorship of Huguang? Has the Yamen received any official documents?"

    Yang Du shook the folding fan in his hand: "The transfer of Chen Xiaoshi to the governor of Huguang is just an official rumor. It has been said a few years ago, but the Yamen has not received the official document yet."

    Lin Shu still didn't believe it: "Since it is a rumor, it may not be accurate! After all, Zhao Cishan has been in Hubei for less than half a year, how can he be transferred back to Sichuan? As the saying goes, military planes are like clouds, and the inner palace is like wind.  . Even if Prince Qing is full of clever plans and eloquent words, as long as the person in the palace does not agree, is it still empty talk? "

    Sun Yuanqi said: "Mr. Weilu, I'm afraid this rumor is not empty talk. I am in the capital, and listening to my uncle's wishes, it seems that I really want to transfer Chen Xiaoshi over. Now we should consider how to deal with it, it is reasonable!"

    Yang Du put down the folding fan and analyzed it carefully: "It is still the New Year's Day, and Zhao Cishan has come to Huguang not long ago. It is unlikely that the imperial decree will be issued before the seal is opened on the 20th of the first lunar month. But the decree that Chen Xiaoshi was appointed governor of Sichuan was in July or August last year.  According to the decree, he went to Beijing in October to pay his respects to the Holy Majesty. According to the laws of the Qing Dynasty, officials must take office three months after receiving the order from Beijing. Now that three months have almost passed, Chen Xiaoshi naturally did not dare to delay for too long and stayed.  Guizhou. Based on this calculation, it can be concluded that the imperial decree will be issued at the end of the first year or the beginning of February. Time is running out!"

    Chen Qiansheng, who had been silent until now, opened his mouth and said: "Then Chen Kuilong is still far away in Guizhou. Waiting for the imperial edict to arrive in Wuchang from Guizhou will have to be in March or April, right? Two or three months is enough to do anything.  Got it!"

    "Brother Zhongfu may not know the rules of officialdom. Before the edict was issued, we did nothing because the original governor was still there and the new governor couldn't say anything. And the original governor knew that he was about to leave office.  , in line with the principle of 'if you have the right to use it, it will become invalid after it expires', and many times are willing to open the door to convenience. This is the tacit approval of the officialdom."

    Unlike Chen Qiansheng, who came from a poor family and had no outstanding achievements, Liu Shipei came from a family of Confucian classics. Three generations of his ancestors studied and studied. He has a good understanding of the basic rules of officialdom: "But once the edict comes, the original governor will leave office. For the time being, he is just a governor."  If you continue to talk randomly about this post, you are breaking the rules and deliberately causing trouble for the new governor. This is a taboo in official circles, and Zhao Cishan will not help with this. Therefore, we only have more than ten or twenty days."

    "What's more than ten or twenty days? Don't forget, the Yamen will not open its seal office until ten days later!" Zhang Shizhao added.

    After calculating this, Sun Yuanqi found that his effective working time was only a few days!  No wonder the old man rushes to Hubei in a hurry during the Chinese New Year. There is really not enough time.

    The important things in the yamen are nothing more than finance and personnel. Sun Yuanqi thought for a moment, then knocked on the table and said: "Everyone, nowSimilar to today's ******), the title of Right Imperial Censor of the Metropolitan Procuratorate (similar to a member of the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection); the lower rank is from the second rank, with the title of Right Minister of the Ministry of War (similar to an alternate member of the Central Military Commission)  , the title of right deputy censor of the Metropolitan Procuratorate (similar to the alternate member of the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection).  But no matter what, they are all in high and powerful positions. When they go out, they carry eight sedan chairs and sound gongs to clear the way; when they enter, they are worshiped by civil and military officials, surrounded by their wives and concubines.  The most majestic!

    But after Xianfeng in the Qing Dynasty, the governorship became a high-risk profession, and there were countless ways to die!  Those who died of illness on the job (too many) are not counted, nor are those who committed suicide (Governor of Yunnan-Guizhou Hengchun, Governor of Huguang Wu Wenrong, and Governor of Zhili Yulu), nor are those who were beheaded by the Qing government themselves (such as Governor of Liangjiang He Guiqing).  Other ways to die are:

    Assassinated (Ma Xinyi, Governor of Liangjiang);

    Falling to death (Luo Raodian, Governor of Yunnan and Guizhou);

    Captured and died in a foreign country (Ye Mingchen, Governor of Guangdong and Guangxi);

    Killed by the Taiping Army (Liangjiang Governor Lu Jianying);

    Killed by Yunnan rebels (Pan Duo, Governor of Yunnan and Guizhou);

    Killed by the Eight-Nation Allied Forces (acting Governor of Zhili, Ting Yong);

    Killed by the revolutionary army (Sichuan Governor Zhao Erfeng, Acting Sichuan Governor Duan Fang);

    And the cause of death is unknown (Yang Shixiang, Governor of Zhili), etc.

    They were both governors, and when faced with the revolution, most of them chose to run away (Ruicheng, Zhang Renjun, Zhang Mingqi), but the younger brother of the one in front of him, Zhao Erfeng, the governor of Sichuan, died tragically: he was directly stabbed and questioned by the revolutionary army.  Beheaded, the leader of Liuyang was beheaded in full view of everyone.  Isn't this sad?

    How did Zhao Erxun know Sun Yuanqi's emotion? After seeing the ceremony, he asked with concern: "Have you ever seen Shouzhou Zhongtang since you came from Beijing? Is he in good health?"

    Sun Yuanqi hurriedly bowed and replied: "Master Lao Zhitai asked, my uncle is still in good health, but he can't see the wind. When the weather gets warmer, he should be able to go out and walk around."

    Zhao Erxun nodded: "Shouzhou Zhongtang is the elder of the emperor's master. He is still in such good health at the age of eighty. It is really disappointing!" Then he said: "Baixi, you have been abroad for several months. You should get more rest when you come back."  Today, by the way, I will accompany you to Shouzhou Zhongtang, the matter on the ground in Hubei is not urgent."

    The two chatted for a while, and then Sun Yuanqi explained the purpose of his visit: "Master Taiwan, I have some secular affairs to report to you. Is it okay?" (To be continued.
