Chapter 365 Jia Butang

Grand President Room on the fifth floor of Sihai Restaurant.

The original price was three taels per night, but the current price is five taels per night. Because it is a private room for the President, Minister, and Admiral of the Nine Gates. If it is too cheap, Mr. Jia will be unhappy.

The Presidential Standard Room for 5-2-1 nights is quite good. It is well-decorated and more elegant than the homes of ordinary officials, but it is certainly incomparable to the Yangxin Palace.

Under two large oil lamps, Jia Liu, who had just returned from the canal dock, was looking through the life and death records of the Qing Dynasty officials compiled by Shuan Zhu, and discovered that Academician Shu was actually ranked seventh in the central official section of the imperial life records.

This ranking is quite high, and some military and aircraft ministers are ranked below.

Wen Fu and A Gui were ranked twelfth and seventeen respectively on this life and death list.

Mingliang, who died at the beginning of the year, was ranked in the twenties. Fulong'an, who unfortunately died a few days ago, ranked higher, ranking sixth ahead of Master Shu.

Lao Fu ranked twenty-third.

The internal ministers, administrative ministers, and imperial ministers who died heroically together with Fulong'an were basically all famous and ranked higher than the old rich.

The main reason for the high ranking of Bachelor Shu is that he participated in the four major wars in the middle and early Qianlong period, including the pacification of the Jinchuan and Jinchuan tribes, the rebellion of the Junggar tribe and the Hui Xinjiang nobles, and the conquest of Burma.

To be fair, he has made great achievements in battle.

His resume is even more rich and jaw-dropping. He is a minister, minister of the interior, commander of the infantry, governor, bachelor, general of Ili...

He is the only surviving civil and military veteran of the Qianlong Dynasty.

Under Jia Liu's influence, Shuan Zhu was quite professional. This book of life and death of officials was very authoritative. It not only referred to the official's resume and service experience, but also combined factors such as birth, ancestors, wives, achievements, etc. It can be said that in this era

The most authoritative first-hand information about leading cadres.

There are actually many official resumes like this in the capital, because there is a huge market for this kind of leading cadre materials.

There are officials in the Ministry of Personnel who specialize in colluding with outsiders to wholesale official files to the outside world. The customers are mainly officials from other places, and the prices are high.

It's just that the official watch made by these people looks a bit amateurish compared to the one made by Shuan Zhu.

After putting a cross on Laoshu's name with his pen, Jia Liu looked through the resumes of the lower ranking deputy commander Wu Shibu, first-class bodyguard Yilin and others.

Basically, they are all the same, they are all guards who have advanced family connections and become palace guards.

Similarly, the names of these people were also crossed out by Jia Liu.

When he was about to close it, he accidentally saw Shuan Zhu ranking He Shen at the twenty-first place.

Jia Liu believes that this ranking is objective. After all, although He Shen was promoted to the Military Aircraft Department and became Minister of the Interior by the Fourth Japs, his tenure was short and he was promoted as a rocket. It is difficult to evaluate He Shen's ranking in the short term.

Get a more accurate ranking.

After closing the book, Jia Liu prepared to ask Shuan Zhu to update it after the New Year, because the ominous events in the city that resulted in the deaths of a large number of central government officials had affected the comprehensiveness of this book.

For example, Lao Fu's current ranking is definitely not 21st, either first or second.

I casually threw the outdated book of life and death onto another book called "The Great Clearance of Thieves". Different from the book of life and death, the "Removal of Thieves" mainly contains the rankings and resumes of the Manchu and Han generals in the Jinchuan Army.

The criteria for being selected for this book are young, high-ranking officials, and able to fight.

At that time, there were more than 200 Eight Banners generals recorded in the book, which was 25 pages thick. However, now this book has basically been eliminated. When you open it, every page is filled with dense crosses.

Currently, there are only two people who meet the above three conditions.

One is General Feng Shengquan of Dingxi, and the other is Jia Liu, the great savior of the Eight Banners.

Since it had been proposed to Lao Fu that Feng Sheng'e would lead the army into Huguang for encirclement and suppression, Jia Liu must make corresponding arrangements.

So, after reaching out and scratching the itch on his butt, he picked up a pen and wrote two letters.

One letter is for the second father-in-law, Bo Qing, and the other is for the third father-in-law, Mr. Gu.

The content of the two letters is different, but the purpose is the same.

It was the cooperation between internal and external parties that allowed Fengshengquan, whose current official ranking and prestige was above Jia Liu, to make a big comeback in Huguang, thus paving the way for his son-in-law Jia Jiashikai to serve as the general of Dingxi.

The facts are obvious. If something happens to that boy Feng Sheng'e again, who else in the Qing Dynasty, besides Jia Liu, can lead the troops and hold up the sky in the south for the Qing Dynasty?

The two letters are written in a very unique way. They are not words like ordinary people write letters, but numbers.

Jia's ciphertext.

The last issue of the decoding software was "Qianlong Imperial Poetry Collection", this issue is "Kangxi Dictionary", and the next issue Jia Liu is going to use "Thousand Character Classic".

The numbers correspond to the number of pages, columns, and words respectively.

In addition to knowing the decoding software, whoever got these two letters would be confused and not know their meaning.

This coded communication method has been mastered by the Liaison Office. There are specialized personnel responsible for decoding and decoding the information from Bo's father-in-law who is about to become the governor of Sichuan, President Li, the governor of Sichuan, and Mr. Gu who has led the army to capture Wuchang.

Of course, Jia Liu did not dare to say that he was the inventor of the code. In fact, this method of information transmission had been used as early as the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period in China. He just carried forward the wisdom of his ancestors again.

Looking up out of the window, except for the lanterns hanging on the pier, the canal was pitch black and the night was quiet.

Demu knocked gently on the door.

"Come in."

Jia Liuduan sat behind the Eight Immortals table in his temporary office, habitually using a hand warmer instead of a thermos cup.

"Bah!"

After a standard military posture, Demu brought a sad news to the president. Bachelor Shu Hede passed away during the rescue process in Tongzhou due to his long drowning time and his old age.

"Really? This is really a very regrettable thing."

Jia Liu looked solemn, stood up and bowed towards Tongzhou City. After counting for three seconds, he raised his head and said sadly: "Can I give you the last dignity of a bachelor?"

“Quite decent!”

Demu said that the body of the great scholar has been covered with a white military flag, and someone has been sent to purchase a coffin. Tomorrow, a carriage will be used to carry the great scholar's soul back to his homeland.

Jia Liu nodded: "You have done a good job. The bachelor has been an official all his life. He must have some savings and inheritance. He needs to send someone to protect his family from lawless people."

"嗻!"

Demu responded.

"Since the Grand Master has been killed, someone must pay the price, and the Grand Master must not be allowed to die like this!"

Jia Liu came to the lobby on the first floor.

In the hall, 24 Manchurian officers, including Ushibu, the deputy commander of Manchuria with a white flag, Yilin, the first-class guard of Qianqingmen, Batubao, the second-class guard of Qianqingmen, who had been invited by Wang Chaoxing, the commander-in-chief of Zhili, were waiting.

The whole process seemed relatively peaceful. Except for the first-class guard Yilin who raised questions and was shocked by the Bilong knife, everyone else came to the military discussion calmly.

Because they thought that Bachelor Shu was also here.

However, after arriving, I did not see Academician Shu. Only the main generals from the Green Camp of each province were present, and all of them looked strange. Admiral Jia Jia also did not show up for a long time, which made all the Manchu generals a little uneasy.

Upon discovering that Admiral Jia Jia had finally appeared, Wu Shibu, deputy commander of Xiangbai Banner, immediately stood up and asked, "I wonder why Lord Jia summoned us here?"

Batu Bao looked around and asked a little strangely: "Where is Shu Zhongtang?"

Zhongtang was the name used by Yongzheng's cabinet academicians before. Because the academicians were the same as the prime minister, they had great power.

In the Kangxi Dynasty, the Mingzhu was in charge of the Ministry of Personnel. In each department, the meeting hall officials were arranged on both sides, with the Mingzhu in the middle, so there was a saying of "Zhongtang".

The power of the cabinet in the Qianlong Dynasty declined, and the minister of military aircraft was the most respected. However, Shu Hede was a bachelor of Wuyingdian. As a bachelor, he was the most distinguished and deserved the title of Zhongtang.

Under the central hall there is the Ministry Hall, under the Ministry Hall there is the Zhi Tai, under the Zhi Tai there is the Fu Tai, under the Fu Tai there is the Fan Tai, and under the Fan Tai there is the Dao Tai.

Jia Liu was also the right minister of the Ministry of War and a Manchu official. He was one of the six officials of the six departments. Therefore, when local officials saw him, they had to respect him as "lord of the department."

The Lord just glanced at Wu Fudu and the third-class guards, ignored him, and went straight to the chair set up in the middle of the crowd. After sitting down, he subconsciously picked up the tea bowl, took a sip, and scratched it with the tea lid.

He scratched the edge of the bowl and said calmly: "As Manchurians, why do you want to fight against the imperial court?"
