Chapter 515: The Declaration of Catherine II
Zhao Xin listened to his wife very much. He went to the hospital after dinner early the next morning. A Miao followed him as usual. Chen Xuan looked at his man's back expressionlessly until the other party disappeared, and his eyes began to become a little crystal clear.
The guard battalion will never be able to keep up with the footsteps of "King Zhao". Since Chen Jishan was transferred, Yin Bingwei, the successor guard battalion commander, decided to divide the guard battalion into two sets, one of which will be guarded in Beihai Town and listened at any time, and the other will follow Zhao Xin to fight. He thought about it. Anyway, no matter how the adults dodged back and forth, there must be a group of people following him.
So when Zhao Xin went out, a group of guards followed him. However, Zhao Xin's accident still surprised some people. For example, Hong Liangji caught a cold last night and had a stomachache all night, so he thought about getting Wu Xianning to prescribe some medicine in the morning.
"Huh?" When Hong Liangji saw a familiar figure flashing by in the hospital, he was a little confused.
When he returned to the primary school office with the medicine and told others what he had just seen, Duan Yucai and Liu Taigong were also very surprised. At this time, he heard Wang Zhong, who was burying his head at his desk and writing, said: "Jun Zhi, I have told you that our King Zhao is not an ordinary person. You argued with me at the beginning, and you said nothing nonsense, now do you understand?"
"Brother Rong Fu, are you talking?"
Wang Zhong put down his brush and pointed to a map hanging on the wall inside the house and said: "It is nearly ten thousand miles from Yenisesk to Beihai Town, not to mention that in the tenth winter, the road is blocked with heavy snow. No matter how much you go, it will take more than two months to go. But where was the King of Zhao more than a month ago? He is fighting with Rakshasa!"
Hong Liangji and Liu Taigong thought carefully and it was really like this. It was never heard of! In conjunction with the past emperors who wanted to live forever and become immortals, but now this person is a god as soon as he appears?!
What will happen to the relationship between the monarch and the ministers in the future?
Duan Yukai and Liu Taigong were deeply thinking, while Hong Liangji had no time to think, and he heard a rumbling sound in his stomach, and he immediately turned around and went out...
In the ward, Zhao Xin sat on the stool in front of the bed, carefully looked at Wang Zhenyi, who looked at the pale face, and said with some guilt: "Recover well and read less books, so that you don't go out with Lin Ziping, and see, you're tired and sick..."
Wang Zhenyi looked at Zhao Xin's dark circles like a panda, and responded "Yeah" in her mouth. She never thought that he was really here. It must have happened that when Ah Miao sent the telegram, he was already on the way back.
".........When the snow melts in spring and your body is almost done, you can go to the north and I will take you to ride a horse. I have seized several Ahaltekin horses before, which are the bloody horses mentioned by the ancients. I left a black one, only 8 years old, so beautiful. But Yenisesk is too cold, so I have to wear horse clothes at night, and I have to feed mutton fat and eggs..."
"I, I can ride a horse, you don't need to take it..." A hint of blush rippled on the young woman's pretty and pale face. Someone's big hand had grabbed her slender fingers at some point.
"I think you just read too much, think too much, and worry too much, just like an eagle on the eagle's eagle's airs."
"What does this mean?"
"Sitting in the autumn wind with a cold ambition. When will you take off the brocade curtain and go to the sky?" Someone scraped his stomach and then carried the plagiarized poems without blushing.
"What did you do?" Wang Zhenyi's eyes became very bright in an instant. She knew that someone was "learning", but she had never heard that he could write poems. However, this poem fully expressed what she thought, and she felt so appropriately how to say it.
"Sudden inspiration." Someone did not blush at all about his plagiarism. In his opinion, sooner or later, it was my family, and yours was mine.
Zhao Xin stayed in Beihai Town for three days this time, and during this period he also discussed with Wang Zhong and others about the future imperial examination. Now that Beihai Town has not yet entered the pass, Wang Zhong has already started to prepare in advance.
This is a major project, which cannot be covered by a simple "examination room rules", but involves a series of issues such as household registration, examination principles, procedures, and legal punishment.
The imperial examinations in the Qing Dynasty were actually based on the Ming system, such as official, harem, stove, and business. In addition to adding regulations on the imperial examinations for the Eight Banners, the system of obtaining scholars by province was also found in the Qing Dynasty, and the Ming Dynasty was divided into zoning.
Wang Zhong, Duan Yucai, Liu Taigong, and Hong Liangji first wrote an outline of the regulations of Beihai Town in accordance with the Qing Dynasty's "Imperial Imperial Imperial Imperial Field Regulations". Zhao Xin took a day to read it roughly, and the next day he put forward his opinions with Wang Zhong and others.
"This article is cancelled, and it doesn't take many generations. As long as I have not violated the law, you can take the exam. I said, the Tongsheng exam is just a qualification exam, so what money can you donate!"
Although the bad family was abolished during the Yongzheng period, the 36th year of Qianlong stipulated that all five categories of people who want to take the child exam, such as the music household, the lazy household, the 9-nine fishermen, and the beggar household, must count from the change of career to the fourth generation, and the relatives of the clan must be honest and have not violated the law, and they have to spend money to buy the exam qualification.
As for the descendants of prostitutes and servants, the 35th year of Qianlong stipulated that in the 35th year of prostitutes and servants, the descendants born to prostitutes and servants will never be allowed to take the exam. Even if their descendants are adopted by others, they are inferior descendants and dare to miss the exam. Once discovered, they will be dealt with more severely.
Sure enough, Hong Liangji asked unwillingly: "Dare you ask King Zhao, what about the descendants of the prostitute Youli?"
Zhao Xin thought for a while and said, "Treat everyone equally."
As soon as this was said, everyone was shocked. Liu Taigong said, "If this were the case, those families of innocent and law-abiding families would not agree at all."
Zhao Xin sneered: "It is necessary to abide by the law. Do you have to commit crimes? The more you think so, the descendants of those who are good at prostitutes, the less likely they will be to make a breakthrough. How many people in the world are willing to be inferior to others? Who doesn't want to have books or do serious things? There is no need to say this anymore. Even slaves in Beihai Town have been abolished, and the school will not refuse to accept any children just because their parents have been beggars before!"

Zhao Xin left with A Miao's slightly disappointed gaze. It was not that he didn't want to take her with her, but that it was too far. He had to walk a snowmobile with a speed of 100 kilometers per hour for more than 4,000 kilometers, even if he drove a snowmobile with a speed of 100 kilometers per hour. At that time, something happened halfway through, and he might not be able to arrive in two months. However, Zhao Xin agreed to A Miao that he would definitely take her with him when he went out next time.
Both A Miao and Shen Xuan expressed disbelief.
......
On December 2, 1790, a carriage containing the body of Rumensev, a marshal of the Tsarist Russian Empire, arrived in Moscow under the gaze of attention. Catherine II rushed from St. Petersburg in the heavy snow. She accompanied her, including the heads of the four main departments of the Tsarist Russian Empire, and the heads of the two departments of the Senate in Moscow. Except for those who were fighting against the Turks, almost all Russian military generals and nobles came to attend the condolences, and even Pojongjin, who was far away in Moldova, rushed back.
The mourning ceremony in Moscow was held in the famous "St. Basil's Cathedral" in Moscow. After that, the marshal's coffin will be escorted to Kiev by the Queen's Guards and buried in the cemetery of the Assumption of Our Lady near the Perchoersk Monastery, which was also Rumentsev's last wish before his death.
Fortunately, Rumentsev died in late autumn, and the weather in Siberia was getting colder, otherwise the queen and nobles would have to mourn his urn.
Many businessmen and citizens who came from Moscow, St. Petersburg, Kazan and even from Russia since childhood also gathered outside the door of the St. Basil's Cathedral.
The sixty-one-year-old queen specially wore the military uniform dress she had not worn for many years, and she wanted to express her condolences to an imperial marshal.
"Many years ago, when I first came to this country from Germany and knew nothing about the people and courage of this country, and could not even speak Russian, I heard that an 18-year-old count was the commander of the infantry regiment. When I fell in love with this country, and learned about the victory of the Battle of Greater Yegersdorf, I later learned more about Alessandrovic. This is a true great man who dedicated his spirit, passion, soul and even life to the country..."
Katerina II's speech was very long, with almost twelve or three pages. She felt that this was not enough to express her condolences to Rumentsev, and she also hoped that this way would make up for her previous indifference to Poejnkin when he ignored Rumentsev.
"... Gentlemen, an evil enemy invaded our land, and Zadunesky dedicated his life for this, and countless brave soldiers also sacrificed their lives on the battlefield. I myself believe in reason and the justice God has given us. God has given us this land, which is the result of the indomitable struggle of all Russian people to establish a new empire and strive to be recognized by the world. This is my Russia, your Russia, and all peoples Russia, solemn and sacred, inviolable!"
The queen became more and more angry as she spoke. Twenty-eight years have passed since she deposed her husband. She worked hard to fight south and north, and finally opened up 520,000 square kilometers of territory for the Tsarist Russian Empire in Europe. In the blink of an eye, millions of square kilometers of territory behind her were lost. This has seriously questioned her legitimacy since she ascended the throne. Now some nobles have been in private, preparing to let Grand Duke Paul succeed to the throne.
To be honest, she felt a little regretful since she learned of the defeat of Rumentsev. She did not dare to believe Ivan Jacques, and she was good at starting the war. With her many years of understanding of the neighbors next door, she could not imagine what kind of person she could be so bold that she could challenge two huge empires at the same time.
The most important thing is that they even won!
Zhao Xin's insidiousness lies in the fact that he only released Suvorov and went back alone, and no one else was let go. So when Suvorov returned to St. Petersburg, facing his warning, both the nobles and the generals thought that he was scared by the sudden attack of the group of Chinese rebels. Suvorov was so angry that he could not defend himself at all, and finally he could only resolutely join the war with the Turks and win back the honor with one victory after another.
However, now, with the news of the "Battle of Usolier" coming back, the generals of Tsarist Russia realized that Suvorov was wronged.
At the end of the speech, the queen repeated her famous saying again: "... As long as I have enough life, I will defend my motherland with words, pen and sword!"
Patriotism is never out of date, and Caterina II motivated everyone's emotions with her passionate speech.
"Long live the queen!"
"Zaduineski is immortal!"
"Destroy those Chinese robbers! Cut off their heads!"
As the Queen's speech ended, the generals and nobles present raised their fists and began to shout. When the sound reached outside, the crowd who came to pay their respects also began to shout, and everyone's emotions reached their peak.
After the condolence ceremony, the queen immediately convened the heads of various departments of the Senate Yuan and relevant military generals to convene an imperial meeting in the palace. However, at the beginning of the meeting, the minister who managed the finance department first reported a bad news.
That is, there is not enough money. The correct statement is that once the Queen wants to issue a general mobilization order, the treasury will soon be exhausted.
The Sixth Russian-Turkish War has been fighting for more than three years. The Tsarist Russian Empire issued huge national debts for this war. Po Jiangjin came back to attend the condolence ceremony, and the Crimea is now commanded by Suvorov. At present, the attack on the Izmael Fortress has reached a critical moment. For this battle related to the capture of Crimea and Georgia, more than 30,000 ground troops and ships of all sizes are gathering.

It is almost time to stop eating the meat from your mouth, and no one of the participants here will be willing to accept it. Moreover, once the news of the Russian army's failure in Siberia reaches Crimea, it will greatly shake the morale of the army.
"No! I have to issue a statement today. I will never forgive those Chinese!" Catherine II knew that everyone was looking at her attitude. If she acted a little slow, those who secretly supported her son would take action and threaten her throne. She told the Chancellor of the Finance Department: "Use the taxes in the Crimea region in the next ten years as collateral to borrow money from those Jews! I have been so kind to them over the years, and they must pay to support me!"
Stepan Ivanovich, who was in charge of intelligence, stood up to report: "Now the Chinese who called themselves the 'Beihai Town' have detained our officers and soldiers in the prisoner-of-war camp east of Usolier. It seems that their fate will be the same as those in Jaquessa before."
"Do you want to spend money to redeem some officers first?" The 53-year-old Po Jiangjin interrupted, and the queen then glared at her old lover.
Paul, thirty-six years old, said: "Mother, let me lead the troops to teach those Chinese people this time! Let me do something for this country and share your worries."
The queen thought that none of them would make her worry-free. She glanced at her son and said in a cold tone: "You stay at home with your wife and children is your greatest contribution to the country."
"My Lady, I suggest organizing a negotiation team to Krasnoyarsk first to find out the truth of the opponent." In order to avoid the embarrassment of Grand Duke Paul, Secretary of State Hrapovich hurriedly changed the topic.
