Deputy Director Ding's answer made Jia Liu's waist in the carriage stiffen unconsciously, and his mood suddenly improved, and the previous depression was wiped away.
Yes, for the sake of the Qing Dynasty, he has already sacrificed his own morality and face, and also sacrificed the old man. So what does it mean to sacrifice a younger brother? If necessary, I can also give up.
What's more, whether that younger brother is a descendant of the Jia family, so far, except Daquan, who swears by it, everyone else has doubts.
Including Jia Liu's two sisters.
In this way, even if Jia Liu kills this younger brother, the two sisters will probably complain a few times, but most likely they won't say anything.
These days, blood ties are taken very seriously.
If a woman dares to have a child with someone else and pretends to be her husband's bloodline, the son will be removed and the mother will be soaked in a pig cage, and the government will not care about it.
Deputy Director Ding's Ming Jun said that Jia Liu secretly made up his mind to prepare for the righteousness of annihilation.
He would not allow an imperial uncle younger than his own son to exist.
Don't work hard for most of your life and end up with a fake brother.
The meeting of princes, princes and ministers to discuss government affairs was held three days later. According to the meeting charter drawn up by the Military Aircraft Department, the princes, princes and ministers first recommended the candidate for the hat king, which is the nomination.
Only clans that have been nominated are eligible to officially become candidates for the Hat King. clans that have not been nominated will naturally lose the opportunity to compete for the Hat King.
The official voting day is August 25th, and the venue is Yangxin Hall.
At that time, all civil and military officials who are qualified to participate in the meeting of princes and ministers will participate and vote on the candidates at the meeting. The final candidate for the hat king will be confirmed based on the number of votes.
In addition to the four families of Prince An, Prince Yi, Prince Xin and Prince Shuncheng, there are ten hat kings that can be nominated, but in the end only five are selected.
That is, after the meeting, the total number of hat kings in the Qing Dynasty was nine.
So, who gets the nomination is crucial.
However, Jia Liu thinks that the ten nominees are a bit unreasonable. The Aixinjueluo Yellow Belt queue can reach the Old Summer Palace, so why choose ten.
Therefore, he asked Queenie, who returned to Beijing first, to submit a letter in the name of the Ministry of Rites, requesting more nominations.
The minimum is 25.
The only people who can nominate candidates are princes, county kings, military ministers, six ministers, eight banner commanders and governors.
No one else, including the governor, has the right to nominate.
Each person can nominate five.
If Queenie's letter is approved by the Military Aircraft Department, Jia Liu will get 15 nomination rights.
There are five governors of Zhili, five ministers of the Ministry of Rites, and five ministers of the Ministry of Personnel.
If everyone asks five questions, and none of them overlap, the total number of candidates may reach hundreds.
This requires another vote.
That is, secondary income generation.
Mr. Jia will nominate you for fifty thousand taels at a time. When the candidate is qualified for final nomination, he will charge you another hundred thousand taels. At the end, when the meeting of princes and ministers makes the final vote, he will charge you another five hundred thousand taels. Isn’t that expensive?
After a set of procedures, shouldn't Mr. Jia earn several million taels?
It's all hard-earned money, and it also requires a battle of wits.
If the fees do not overlap and you spend 650,000 taels to become the hereditary and irreplaceable hat king of the Qing Dynasty, you guys can have fun hiding under the covers!
Jia Liu's internal choice of Prince Ying is 90% that of his good nephew. Dorgon's title of Prince Rui will definitely be obtained by Xinjun Palace, and there will be discussions on who the title of Prince Yu of Duoduo will be.
In addition, those princes who colluded with the old rich and wanted to become the king of hats, how could they do it without giving Jia Jia some tips on his forehead?
My brother-in-law has no other abilities, but he definitely has the ability to hold you back!
Thinking of the wealth he would bring when he returned to Beijing this time, Jia Liu couldn't help but smile with satisfaction on his face.
I lifted up the window blinds and looked outside, and found that it was very lively and had the style of a big city.
All this can be attributed to the old rich man's good governance. During the past half year, he has abolished some unreasonable policies in the past and asked the Ministry of Punishment to amend some unreasonable provisions of the law.
For example, the year before last, Qianlong asked the Ministry of Punishment to add an article to the "Regulations of the Qing Dynasty", which stated that all Han people with different surnames who make alliances with blood, burn their tables and sworn brothers, regardless of the number of people, who commit rebellion and fail to follow the law, and the leader is expected to be hanged in prison. There is no such thing.
Those who make a blood pact and swear to burn their oaths and stop sworn brotherhood will receive a hundred rods for those who are leaders; and one level will be reduced for each one who is a follower.
That is to say, Han people who are not blood brothers are not allowed to call each other brothers, let alone exchange sworn brothers. Once discovered, it will be regarded as treason.
This rule was obviously very harsh and extremely unreasonable, so in April the old man asked the Ministry of Punishment to delete this rule. In addition, he also deleted the crime of treason: Lingchi of the living, killing of the corpse of the dead, and male relatives over the age of 15.
Sitting, standing, beheading, etc.
In addition to lenient laws, in order to fundamentally overthrow Qianlong, the rich man began to rehabilitate the victims of civil prison.
The first was to rehabilitate the Manchu ministers who had been imprisoned.
For example, because he wrote "Autumn colors make people lazy to go to court" and "Should take care of my home in Chang'an", he was considered by Qianlong to be against the Qing Dynasty.
In addition, the former governor of Gansu, E Chang, who called the Mongols "Hu'er" in his poems, and others were rehabilitated by the old rich man in the name of Qianlong, recalling their relatives who had been sent to Ninggu Pagoda and the Eight Banners as slaves.
The vindication of these cases made the rich man's status in the eyes of the banner people rise. The atmosphere in the court was much more relaxed than when Qianlong was in power. Gradually, most of the banner people hoped that the emperor's condition would never improve.
At the same time, the old man also told the National History Museum and other agencies that in the future, the words "Hu" and "Li" would no longer be avoided in the history writing. In addition to the Han people who had not yet been rehabilitated by the civil prison, it seemed that the old rich wanted to end the literary ban that had started since Emperor Kangxi.
If everything goes well, Lao Fu will really be the living Bodhisattva of the Qing Dynasty.
The problem is that the old rich man does not know that his six sons and wise brothers have already asked their close family slaves to start a trial of prison correction in Zhili. After learning the experience, they will promote it throughout the province and then spread outside Zhili.
If nothing else happens, the civil prison incident may become the trigger for the two rich men to completely fall out.
But by then, Jia Liu felt that playing with the old rich was like playing with a chick.
The front guard has arrived at Xiliu Hutong, the old residence of the Jia family, and is deploying security arrangements.
Jia Liu slowly got down from his bulletproof carriage.
This time he did not ride a big white horse when he entered the capital. He had someone specially build a bulletproof carriage. It could not protect against cannonballs and blunderbuss and arrows.
I got two cars, exactly the same.
When you are in a good mood, sit in the back car, and when you are in a bad mood, sit in the front car.
Even he himself didn't know which car he was taking.
Therefore, even if there is a traitor around, the assassin does not know which car the target is in.
Because he had arrived home, Jia Liu certainly didn't want to walk heavy anymore, so he took off all the iron plates tied to his body, and also took off the soft fish scale armor tied to his trouser legs.
Immediately, I felt relaxed all over, and my face dropped even as I walked to the door.
In his sight, Daquan was holding a swaddled baby and looking at his eldest son with joy on his face.
A postpartum woman stood behind the big body with a bit of embarrassment.
