When the two sides met, they all had guns and sticks in their words.

Liu Yong said that Zhao Xin was under the guise of Zhu Ming’s descendant and pulled the banner; Zhao Xin meant that I was teaching Tsarist Russia a lesson recently and I had no time to pay attention to you.

Cao Peng, who was standing beside him, looked at Liu Yong curiously, and compared it with the actor surnamed Li he remembered, and thought to himself that it didn't look like it at all.

"It is said that Liu Yong is a great calligrapher. If he could get a piece of his handwriting, I wonder how much it would cost to go back?"

Naturally, there is no need to introduce Qitai. He clasped his fists at Zhao Xin with a serious face, and introduced several military generals and civil servants behind him to Zhao Xin. Zhao Xin smiled and greeted him one by one.

Several Qing officials were secretly surprised to see that the thief leader in front of him was completely unpretentious. However, as a court official, it was not easy to be too polite to Zhao Xin, so they just nodded slightly.

After everyone sat down, they divided the places and sat down at the table, Liu Yong spoke first.

"I heard that your Excellency defeated Rakshasa in Heilongjiang City and Yaksha. It is reported that the command of the army has crossed the boundary stone tablet?"

"I was so careless. Before I came back, Irkutsk had been captured, and I captured a governor and general, and there were several major generals."

Naqitai, who was standing beside him, interrupted, "Mr. Zhao, what are the positions of the general and major general of the Rakshasa people?"

Zhao Xin smiled and said, "The General is like your great general Fuyuan, who is in charge of the troops and horses in various parts of Siberia. The major general is the general, usually leads several regiments or an army."

After hearing this, Liu Yong nodded and said, "So, Mr. Zhao, when will Heilongjiang City and Yaques return me to the Qing Dynasty?"

Zhao Xin looked at Liu Yong without saying anything for a long time. When Qi Tai saw the other person's expression, he thought it was going to be bad!

Liu Yong frowned and said, "What's wrong with what I said?"

Zhao Xin smiled and said, "Mr. Liu, did you eat the twist in the morning? Do you know what I do?"

Liu Yong opened his triangular eyes and stared at Zhao Xin with a playful look on his face and said, "I am also curious. Where did you come from? Mr. Zhao, can you tell me and let me relieve my confusion?"

Starting from the spring of the 51st year of Qianlong, that is, after Fukang'an and a group of prisoners were redeemed by Qianlong with gold, a very secret investigation that was personally supervised by Qianlong and Heshen was specifically responsible for began. The confidentiality of this matter was second only to that of Qianlong's founding of the crown prince. Why was the confidentiality so high? The problem lies in Zhao Xin's fluent Beijing film.

According to what the Eight Banners officers and soldiers were seen and heard by Fu Kang'an and Na Qitai, the descriptions of people who had personally contacted Zhao Xin, and the Qing spies had secret investigations in Beihai Town over the past two years, Heshen and the Blue-Feng Guard from the Sticks read all the red and yellow books of the Eight Banners of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. At the same time, officials from the Ministry of Justice also sent officials from the Ministry of Justice to check all household registration cigarette household books and monks and Taoist Circulation Books in the twenty-three provinces of the world.

According to Fu Kang'an and Naqitai, Zhao Xin spoke a well-inspired Beijing Mandarin, which was mixed with many common sayings that only people could use.

The Blue Peel Guards sifted through all the Han, Manchu and Mongolian Eight Banners who were about the same age as Zhao Xin, but none of them looked like Zhao Xin and could not find out any news. The clan mansion also carefully checked all the banned clan families in the past, which was exactly the same as the records in the yellow book.

The core of the entire investigation is three things: Who is Zhao Xin? Where did he come from? Where is his home?

To explain this issue, we must first explain the household registration management system in the Qing Dynasty. Don’t think that the state machinery in feudal society is all for a good meal. The Qing Dynasty was the most stringent household registration management system in the entire feudal society. The household registration management system in later generations also borrowed from some practices of the Qing Dynasty.

Unless someone jumps out of a stone and is born with it, there will be records on the file.

As we all know, the Qing Dynasty inherited the Ming system, so at the beginning, the method of "the household registration is determined by the household registration management and household registration classification is also implemented. According to the household law firm of the "Qing Dynasty Laws" Volume 8, the household law firm, all military, civilian, post, stove, doctor, divination, worker, and enjoy the family members, and the household registration is determined by the household registration. Even if they are beggars, there are beggar households.

Compared with the roughness of the Ming Dynasty, the Qing Dynasty began to register the household registration in the world every five years since the 13th year of Shunzhi, and directly linked the increase in the population in various places to the performance appraisal of officials.

Speaking of which, the purpose of feudal society to register household registration was to control as many people as possible so that they could receive taxes and serve as a job, thereby ensuring the country's fiscal and tax revenue and labor dispatch. Therefore, under this premise, officials in all dynasties have committed fraud in order to gain promotion, or to evade taxes and labor to conceal their population, and the Qing Dynasty was no exception.

Therefore, when the problem of collecting money and grain and unreal population became more and more serious, Kangxi adopted the method of "prosperous people breeding people and never add taxes". Since the breeding people never add taxes, hiding household registration would lose its meaning. This also laid the foundation for the later implementation of Yongzheng's "spreading people into acres" policy.

Some people in later generations always said that Kangxi's words were to put out smoke bombs, not really to lighten taxes and pay levies, but to gain favorable impressions. Haven't you seen the various types of additional charges, fire consumption, gold, mining taxes, etc. that were added after the Daoguang Dynasty.

The question is what Kangxi’s purpose is to clarify this before criticizing it. The original intention is to try to obtain real data in household registration statistics!

With the full rollout of "spending taxes into a mu", the capitation tax that has existed for two thousand years in Chinese history was completely abolished, which led to the abolition of the population editing system for the purpose of collecting taxes and service.

By the 37th year of Qianlong's reign, the Qing Dynasty officially stopped the review of population and replaced it with the household registration statistics system; specifically, it was the Baojia method implemented with Wang Yangming's "Ten Family Cards Law" as an opportunity. This is also the basis of the household registration management system commonly used in later generations in China.

The specific method is to write Baojia, and the household will give the house sign, write the name of the parents and the number of men, and change it every year. Ten families are cards, and the cards have their heads; ten cards are cards, and the cards have their lengths; ten Jias are cards, and the cards are balanced.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content later! Household registration statistics and management under the Baojia system are mainly implemented by compiling "smoking household registration books"; the security chief is generally responsible for filling in it, and the book format and content are filled in according to the content on the door plate inside A, which is the summary of the door plates of each household.

The "Smoking House Book" is in duplicate, one is temporarily stored in the local government for inspection; the other is placed in the A position to count personnel changes at any time, or to report to the county on the first day of the month, or to change once every two months.

As for the Eight Banners, there is another rule.

Needless to say, the royal family must be registered with the clan’s mansion. The yellow belts are included in the jade certificate and the red belts are included in the red book. If an ordinary family of a bannerman has a child, they must immediately report to the subordinates of the banner and log in to the "book".

The "books" of the Eight Banners are based on households, each household has a detailed record. They include the banner, clan, household, relationship with the head of the household, gender, marriage status, status, name, age, birth date, death, name and occupation of the father and grandfather, etc. In addition, the family slaves under the family are also registered and attached to the back of the household registration book, which also contains the father and the name of the grandfather. At the same time, the source of the identity of the grandfather is also checked, either by the covenant, or by Shengjing, or by the land purchase, or by the covenant, and are required to be displayed in the household registration book.

Heshen and a group of people investigated secretly for two years, but they still couldn't figure out Zhao Xin's origin and whether he really called this name. Not to mention Zhao Xin, they didn't even find out Liu Sheng.

Later, Heshen sent his subordinates to Guangzhou and Macau to inquire about which country in Europe would build a large iron ship. But no one has ever heard of the merchants and sailors of England, France, the Netherlands, Spain, Australia and Portugal. Some foreign sailors even responded in surprise, wasn't the large iron ship built by you in the Qing Dynasty?

Qianlong even asked Bai Tang A, who was sticking the rod, to secretly take a boat to Nagasaki. When he met Nagasaki's Aiguan Masayoshi, he only got a little news, that is, Zhao Xin first appeared in the Muao area in the 48th year of Qianlong's reign.

In fact, the shogunate was actually secretly investigating Zhao Xin's origin. They had always wanted to understand why Zhao Xin was so hostile to the Tokugawa Shogunate. They searched and found that in the winter of the third year of Tianming, Zhao Xin and Liu Sheng appeared on the sea near Aomori in a large white ship, taking away more than 300 hungry people.

Going further, nothing can be found. Of course, it would be a hell if I could find it!

(Some book friends said that when the Qing Dynasty could pretend to be this and that, let me tell you the truth, you can't pretend to be anything. A circular book will lock people tightly. Whether it is the Lin Shuangwen Rebellion or the Su Sisan Uprising, the most important thing for feudal society to treat rebels is to capture their families.)

In the world, no matter whether it is a person or a thing, people leave traces and geese leave sounds. If a highly centralized central dynasty really wants to check something, there is basically nothing that cannot be found. If I can't find it, I can check his accomplices, and the truth will be revealed in the end.

But Zhao Xin’s background cannot be found out!

At this point, not only Heshen, but also Qianlong was panicked, to be precise, he was afraid. The so-called knowing oneself and the enemy, but if you don’t even know the other party’s background, how can you deal with it?

It would be fine if he was really the descendant of Zhu Youqi, the last King of Zhao, but the problem is that no one can prove it except Zhao Xin himself.

How many large iron ships does Zhao Xin have? Where did he build the two large ships? If he had a few similar large ships, the court would have to be forced to impose a "sea ban". No one can deal with him!

Fortunately, Zhao Xin had just finished fighting Ningguta and turned around and took over the Rakshasa. If he had led his troops south, Qianlong would have to summon troops from all over the world to the north and use the number of people to survive.

Faced with Liu Yong's problem, Zhao Xin was silent for a moment, revealing the iconic smile that Qitai had seen. Liu Yong had eight white teeth shook with a little dazzling. He thought to himself that this person still had a good tooth in this poor mountain and water land, which shows how luxurious life is.

"you guess?"

Tell~~~~~~~ That Qitai thought I knew it was like this!

Liu Yong still had a serious face. Although he had talked with Na Qitai about the details of the confrontation with Zhao Xin many times before, he did not expect that this person was so slick and always looked like a slutty person.

He pondered for a moment and said, "Mr. Zhao, I see you as a talented person, not like a fraudster. Don't say that you gathered a group of Japanese refugees to fight against the Celestial Empire and narrowly defeated our court army many times. Just by being able to defeat Rakshasa, you can be a real man! Zhu Zi Youyun, being open and honest is a good person. What do you dare not speak out?"

Zhao Xin pretended to be confused and spread his hands and said, "What am I hiding? Your emperors all said that I am the descendant of the last King of Zhao. Have I argued?"

Such a little bitch, he was so fucking slippery! Liu Yong almost scolded him in Zhucheng dialect.

In fact, in order to find out Zhao Xin's background, he has searched through relevant collections and historical documents from the late Ming and early Qing dynasties in the past few months, and the following records may be found:

In the first month of the fourth year of Yongli, the Qing soldiers captured Nanxiong and Shaozhou, and directly forced Qingyuan Gorges. Zhaoqing was in danger. In September, Yongli fled to Zhaoqing and retreated to Wuzhou. On September 26, the Qing soldiers surrounded Guangzhou and captured Huizhou. Huang Yingjie, the general of Huizhou in the Southern Ming Dynasty, Li Shilian, the prefect of Huizhou, and Lin Zongjing, saw that the situation was destined, so they took the former Ming Dynasty, Zhao Zhu Youqi and other kings surrendered to the Qing army.

After Xiancheng surrendered to the Qing Dynasty, Huang Yingjie and others killed the princes and their families of the former Ming Dynasty. Because the princes were beautiful, the princess Pang of Xinghua was possessed by the camp general Wang Shihua. She hanged her four-year-old daughter and set up a tablet for her husband, and then hanged herself to death with a belt. Princess Zheng of Zhongxin was possessed by the Taoist minister Li Shilian, but she refused to follow her. Later, she also waited for an opportunity to hang herself and died. The body was abandoned into the river. Princess Ziyang was possessed by the general Huang Yingjie and swore to death. Huang Yingjie was afraid that she would run away, so she bared her top and imprisoned the secret room. In the end, the princess took advantage of Huang Yingjie's unpreparedness and took off her lower clothes and tied a rope to a neck to commit suicide.

But the problem is that among the four princesses living in Huizhou, only Princess Zhao is missing, and history is not recorded. In the notes of the Ming people, it is vaguely written that King Zhao had a three-year-old son at that time, and his whereabouts were unknown later.

Although Zhao Xin's words are equivalent to accusing that he is the last King of Zhao, Liu Yong still has many questions.

Why did he change his surname to Zhao? Such a large territory has been defeated, isn’t it better to restore the surname Zhu?

Who did he learn the official language of the bannerman with a straight voice? Why did he know the secret history of Manchu starting his career? Could it be that he really had a master who was a descendant of a wandering royal family? Otherwise, this would be impossible to explain.

At this time, Zhao Xin smiled faintly and said to Liu Yong: "Mr. Liu, don't be too busy. You can talk later. Let's talk about something serious. What do Qianlong wants you to talk to me?"

"Stop the army and surrender to the court! Meng Wuhuang will not abandon you. He values ​​your ability to govern the people's livelihood in the two cities. After surrender, he can appoint Mr. Zhao as the deputy general. Even if he raises the flag, it is not impossible!"

"Puff!" Zhao Xin was drinking tea, and spraying out a sip of water, which was spraying Qitai's face. Cao Peng next to him was even more shocked and his butt was unstable. He planted a green onion back and fell on the ground with a chair.

"Oh~~Oh, I'm sorry, sorry! Use your hand towel to wipe it."
