Qianlong was telling the truth. Judging from the current situation, Yongxuan definitely did not achieve breakthrough results in Huguang, otherwise there would not have been several provincial governors jointly opposing him as the emperor.
Looking on the bright side, Yongxun is still in the "struggle" with Guiziliu, and the two sides have not yet decided the winner.
Thinking about the worst, Qianlong may have to experience the pain of losing his son again.
The five provinces around the capital rebelled, and the capital faced the reality of being surrounded by the coalition forces of the five provinces, so Qianlong had to prepare for the worst.
For this reason, he asked He Shen to go to Huguang to negotiate with the Japanese Sixth Army, using the regent's bargaining chip in exchange for the other party not to cause trouble, and even abdicated in exchange for the last dignity of his forty years as emperor.
Why are you so sure that the Allied Forces of the Five Provinces are related to the Japanese Army?
That's what even a fool would think of.
Of course, even if it came to this point, Qianlong would not be able to live in Tianjin as the governors of the four provinces said in the telegram.
Most people just want to move out of the Forbidden City and live in the Old Summer Palace.
As long as Guiziliu still recognizes the Qing Dynasty tablet, it will be impossible for him to kill Qianlong.
The so-called bizarre life experience is nothing more than a political rumor, and its purpose is to steal the emperor's legal authority and justice.
But what happened next showed that Qianlong still did not give in. His decision to let Heshen go to Huguang was just a strategic smoke bomb. Deep down in his heart, the old guy was still trying to fight tooth and nail, and even had the intention of a desperate counterattack.
The evidence is that Suo Lin, the foreman, the military minister, was secretly summoned to Dongnuang Pavilion by Qianlong after He Shen.
"I can't count on anyone now, I can only count on Suo Qing."
In front of this "restoration hero", Qianlong did not hide it and directly asked Solin whether he, the emperor, could make a comeback.
That is, how many governors in the world will support him as the emperor, and how many will side with Guiziliu, the thief who steals the country.
When it comes to governor, we must first analyze who will stand in the nine feudal territories.
The nine major feudal territories are General Shengjing, Governor of Zhili, Governor of Liangjiang, Governor of Shaanxi and Gansu, Governor of Sichuan, Governor of Huguang, Governor of Fujian and Zhejiang, Governor of Guangdong and Guangxi, and Governor of Yunnan and Guizhou.
These nine people are all real frontier officials. They have control over the military and political affairs within the territory, and they have jurisdiction over at least two provinces. They have money, food and military power, so their attitude is very important.
Needless to say, Yang Jingsu, the governor of Zhili, initiated the rebellion. The governor of Sichuan was vacant. Among the remaining seven, General Shengjing Hongxiang was from the clan, and his father was Yunzhen, the eldest son of the holy ancestor Kangxi.
As the leader of the three generals outside the Pass, it is absolutely impossible for Hongxiang to betray the imperial court.
Guanwai is currently absolutely reliable.
Otherwise, the ministers in the Yangxin Hall would not have approved the deployment of troops from outside the customs to suppress the rebels.
Gao Jin, the governor of Liangjiang, was also completely on the side of the emperor. Firstly, he had been loyal for generations, and secondly, Gao Jin was a relative of the emperor, and his sister was the imperial concubine Huixian. Therefore, Suo Lin did not think that Gao Jin would side with Guiziliu.
"The land of Liangjiang governs the three provinces of Jiangsu, Anhui, and Jiangxi. It is the important land for money and grain taxation in the Qing Dynasty. As long as the Liangjiang region firmly supports the imperial court, supports the emperor, and dispatches elite troops to the north, Shandong Cathay will definitely be unable to support it."
Suolin meant that the emperor should immediately issue a secret edict and ask Gao Jin, the governor of Liangjiang, to mobilize troops and horses to go north to quell the rebellion in Shandong Guotai, and then go straight to Tianjin.
"As long as the water transportation continues, the emperor will be safe and sound."
Suolin's analysis is relatively pertinent. The fundamental reason why Chongzhen in the former Ming Dynasty perished was that water transportation was cut off, and there was no blood input to the heart of the empire.
One-third of the canal transportation is in Shandong, so Cathay must be suppressed as soon as possible to ensure that the canal, the imperial artery, is not interrupted.
Qianlong was convinced and asked Suolin to prepare a secret decree to Gao Jin, the governor of Liangjiang, and immediately mobilized troops to attack Shandong Cathay from Xuzhou.
In this way, even if Shandong cannot be restored, the Cathay thieves will have to turn around and deal with Liangjiang, and will not be able to concentrate on participating in the so-called rebellion. This will undoubtedly reduce the pressure on the capital.
Both the monarch and his ministers subconsciously did not mention the Xinghan bandits who were besieging Anqing and intended to move down the river to occupy Nanjing.
At this point, the rebel army is no longer important.
Thorin continued to analyze the remaining governors.
"The ancestor of Li Shiyao, the governor of Guangdong and Guangxi, is Li Yongfang, the founding hero of the country. He became an official as a yin-sheng and became the governor of Guangdong and Guangxi. He was completely promoted by the emperor. I thought that Li Shiyao would probably not betray the emperor."
Suo Lin believed that even if Li Renyao's position was unstable, he would still adopt a wait-and-see attitude and would not fall to the Sixth Japs camp now.
Ening, the governor of Yunnan and Guizhou, was the son of former great scholar Ortai. After Ortai's death, although the E party was suppressed by Qianlong, Ortai himself was also removed from the Xianliang Temple.
However, Qianlong did not suppress E Ning and still had great trust in him. He even made E Ning three times the fifth-rank Yuan Wai Lang as deputy capital official. This shows how Qianlong had great trust in E Ning.
"Even if Ening has different intentions towards the emperor, Yunnan-Guizhou is too remote and has little impact on the war situation, so there is nothing to worry about."
Suolin determined the Yunnan-Guizhou side, that is, the Yunnan-Guizhou side will probably stay away from this incident, just like Guangdong and Guangxi.
The governor of Fujian and Zhejiang, Yade, was also personally selected by the emperor to be sent to the territory. He was loyal and reliable. However, the problem was that the main force of the Qing army in Fujian and Zhejiang had all crossed the sea to Taiwan to quell the rebellion, so it was difficult for Yade to mobilize elite soldiers and generals to go north to King Qin.
In other words, no matter what the attitudes and positions of the three governors of Guangdong and Guangxi, Yunnan and Guizhou, and Fujian and Zhejiang are, they cannot affect the direction and final outcome of the incident.
Nowadays, the relationship is important, and those who can decide the outcome of the incident are the Governor of Huguang, Bo Qing'e, and the Governor of Shaanxi and Gansu, Lerjin.
We have not yet received any calls from Boqing'e and Lerjin, so it is impossible to determine the political stance of these two governors.
However, Bo Qing'e had just been transferred from the Governor of Sichuan to the Governor of Huguang. He was still in his infancy in Huguang and was under the control of the Japanese, so he might not be able to accomplish much.
However, the governor of Shaanxi and Gansu, Lerjin, has spare power to serve the king. If the Shaanxi and Gansu soldiers can advance eastward, the rebels in Shanxi and Henan will be restrained.
The problem is that Shaanxi Governor Bi Yuan publicly responded to Zhili Yang Jingsu's counter-message, but Le Erjin, as the governor, had no voice?
There are nothing more than three results.
The first is that Leerjin was killed by the governor Bi Yuan, the second is that Leerjin acquiesced in Bi Yuan's power supply, and the third is that Leerjin was not in Xi'an at this time.
Regardless of the first two results, it will be unfavorable to the court.
Only the third result can still give hope to the court.
If the Shaanxi and Gansu sides collectively sided with Guiziliu, the capital side would be at an absolute disadvantage whether in terms of righteousness or actual military pressure.
Therefore, the top priority is to find out what happened in Shaanxi and Gansu.
Before Qianlong could send a report to inquire about the situation, the memorial from Shaanxi-Gansu Governor Leerjin arrived.
The content made both the emperor and the minister change their minds.
Nalerjin actually reported to Xi'an General Fu Liang that he had conspired to rebel, and was promptly executed by him.
At the end of the memorial, he actually called on the imperial court to hold bilateral talks with Prince Rui to peacefully resolve the incident in an open and honest manner.
If necessary, Leerjin can act as the coordinator for both parties.
What's the meaning?
Lao Le wants to be the sixth child.
"Fake oil!"
Qianlong was so angry that he said "Ying Ge Lai Xi".
He has a foreign language teacher.
At the beginning, Lang Shining taught him a lot of nonsense, and when he was surrounded by Western enshrinements in the palace, he hardly needed translation to understand the general meaning of what the foreign priests said.
It is obvious that this bastard Le Erjin was also deceived by lard and stabbed the emperor at this critical moment.
