3883 Snowflake-like paper
They were all in the same yamen, and they looked down and saw each other. The relationship between the third master was too rigid. Although he knew the subtext of this old fox, there was no need to say it out loud.
After taking the official documents from Mi Feng, the Third Master looked carefully one by one. Sure enough, when he saw half of it, he understood half of it!
He suddenly closed the official document and closed his eyes, and placed the official document on the table, "Agui! My eyes suddenly hurt today and I can't do official business anymore... You can put these in the prince's room and wait until the prince comes back before making any ideas!"
"There is nothing to worry about, it's just some ordinary lawsuits. The prince has common regulations, so it won't be complicated to deal with!"
After saying this, the third master put on his hat under the servant's service, stepped out of the study and left!
The nobleman bowed his hips and watched the third master go back. After the third master disappeared at the end of the veranda of hand-copying, he sneered and said in a low voice, "Don't care, you've looked at it anyway. As long as you take a look, it won't matter to me..."
"No matter whether you do it well or not in the future, you will get half the responsibility!"
Gui Ye went to the prince's office with his official documents, chatted with Zhang Jing, who was left behind, and put down the official documents and went to eat noodles on their own. In their eyes, these were just some trivial matters in the huge empire, which was not worth making a fuss.
Master Qing San, who was sitting in a sedan chair, looked at the various life situations on the streets coldly, but was weighing the weight of the strange official documents in his heart. He knew very well that the counterattack commanded by Emperor Tongzhi was about to begin. This was a war without gunpowder. Although it was not bleeding, the degree of tragic was even more fierce than the hot war!
Prince Gong, who inspected Xishan Camp, entered the city at around 4 o'clock in the evening. The tired prince did not go to the yamen but went back to the royal palace to take a bath and rest.
It was not until after dinner that the staff in the royal palace summoned him to inquire about the errands in the yamen today!
It was really calm during this period. Since the forced ban, Zai Chun has become much more honest and has no longer involved in the government affairs. He also has no trouble of building an iron factory.
One thing to do is to be obedient and prepare for the wedding!
Once the little emperor did not cause trouble, the court would naturally return to the past "peaceful" days. People who worked in various departments were also relaxed, and the daily processing of official documents in the Zongli Yamen was much smaller.
In Yi?'s eyes, the British are now closely related to the Qing Dynasty, and the British devils are at ease to make money from the Qing Dynasty's business, so it is impossible for him to go against him!
The French are trying hard to raise money in China to prepare for compensation, and they don’t have the ability to make trouble in Asia again!
Tsarist Russia has been abolished, and tens of thousands of prisoners were kept in Xiao Letian's hands and no negotiations have been made. Even if the attack on the Yili River Valley is fierce, Zuo Zongtang has already issued a military order to retake the Yili River Valley no matter what.
As for Americans, let alone, they have always been in diplomacy and never meant to engage in wars, so there is no need to be afraid!
As long as the foreigners do not cause trouble in this Qing Dynasty, and the various factions in their own country become stable, there will be no trouble!
As for Xiao Letian? I heard that he stayed in Nanyang and didn’t know what he was doing... It’s good that these two devils would not come back in their entire lives!
It is precisely because of this period that Prince Gong has the leisure to spend a whole day in Xishan to inspect. He said that it was an inspection, in fact, it was just to take advantage of the good weather in June to go into the mountains to relax and see the scenery!
On the edge of the bat pond in the back garden, a rocking chair under the tall elm tree was squeaking. Prince Qing half-closed his eyes and listened to his aides talking about today's business!
When he heard the British sent nine complaints, Yi slowly opened his eyes, "What a big case?"
"Reporting to the prince, there are no major cases, they are all things that cannot be discussed in business money and food. They sued our officials for bribes, and they also slapped them... and even the customs accounts are not in line with anything!"
Yi? He frowned as soon as he heard this, "Who was sent by the British Embassy? Foreign devils or ordinary servants?"
"Report to the prince, he is just an ordinary servant, and the foreigners did not come forward!"
"Well, that's good... It seems that the case is not big, otherwise the one who sends the official documents will have to be a big-nosed foreigner! Look back and see where the case belongs, just send a few telegrams to follow!"
Yi? He relaxed, he had no idea that all this was just the vanguard of a storm!
The next day, another safe day. It was strange that the British Embassy sent three complaints, which were sent by ordinary servants!
The Japanese devils still didn't take it seriously, but it was different on the third day. The British Embassy actually sent eleven complaints in one go, but they were still all economic dispute cases!
This time, not only Shanghai, Guangzhou, Hong Kong and other places have sued the court for the Japanese! They are all unresolved and bad accounts, but they are all related to import and export trade.
This is normal, because in this era, foreigners are engaged in trade in China, and they are not as complicated as directly setting up factories to invest. And trade transactions are indeed prone to various scammers, thieves and even official robbers.
But it’s normal, so that’s a little too many! Usually, I could get three or five servings a month, but why did I get more than twenty servings in just three days now?
"What are you doing for? Are local officials stupid pigs? Can't they handle such cases by themselves? They also have to sue them to the capital?"
"This kind of small lawsuit is a small matter of miscellaneous... Look at the lawsuit of three or four thousand taels of silver. If you don't look for a local official, you come to the General Office of the People's Republic of China? Are you sincerely asking for trouble?"
"Send me a message and send telegrams to all cities that open seas! Let them solve these small cases by themselves, and then send them to the capital to cure their crimes!"
"That's true! The toad ran to the feet. It's so disgusting if you bite people or not!"
The telegram was sent out, so why don’t you really care about it for two days, but after two days, when Prince Gong thought the weather was calm, something annoying came again!
"Report... to the prince... to complain... to the complaint document is here again!"
On the sixth day, a large pile of complaints appeared on Prince Gong's desk, and this time he couldn't feel relieved!
On the sixth day, the yamen was not idle all day in the morning and afternoon. The three rookies on duty collected a document and a copy of it!
All complaints were made. The British Embassy sent 16 certificates, the French Embassy also sent 7 copies, the US Embassy sent 6 copies, and even Tsarist Russia jumped out to make trouble and sent 3 certificates.
It’s all the same. They all say that local officials are unfair, and corruption is rampant in customs, which eventually causes losses to the merchants!
If these merchants do not receive compensation locally, they can only entrust envoys from various countries to go to Beijing to file a complaint!
Yi's face turned pale and his hands were trembling with anger, but until then he still didn't realize that this was a huge storm specifically targeting him!
At four o'clock in the afternoon, before the yamen was about to close, he came to report the demise again, "Report... Report to the prince... there are complaints again!"
"This time...this time..."
Looking at the clerk Yi kneeling on the ground, I wanted to kick him to death with a heart-warming "I have something to say, but I have farts!"
"Yes, yes...Your Majesty... This time it's the official document from Xiao Letian of the Chinese clan...They Chinese merchants are also here to sue us!"
Ouch! Yi? He slapped his forehead and said something was wrong. "Even Xiao Letian has been involved. I want to rebel from my yamen? Everyone knows that I Yi is responsible for the diplomacy of the entire Qing Dynasty. This is deliberately unable to get along with me!"
"Okay, okay... I keep all the accounts in my heart. I will settle them one by one with you sooner or later!"
"How many more complaints are he sent to?"
"A total of 66 copies!"
Chapter completed!
