Chapter 112 Beauty Plan
"The pig iron problem must be solved, otherwise our army will not be able to compete with the Qing soldiers in a short period of time. From private recruitment to paid collection, iron pots, sickles, axes, and farm tools that the people do not use are paid at the price. Remember not to force it, it cannot affect the normal life of the people, and do not hurt my love for the people." Zhu Youlang said.
"As for the acquisition of Xingguo, I think it's okay, but there is no need to attack. Xingguo is close to Ganzhou, which is the key defense of the Qing army. First, our army does not have the ability to attack. Second, if we recruit a large-scale attack, our rear will be unstable, and it will be very difficult to defend. Therefore, I intend to use the opportunity to provoke the Qing army in Jiangxi. What do you think?"
"Emperor, according to the information sent by Zhang Jiayu, Jiangxi Governor Zhang Yutian, inspector Dong Xuecheng, governor Chi Bianlong, Dusi Liu and Chun were in a relationship with Jiangxi General Jin Shenghuan and Deputy General Wang Deren, so he could use it. However, it took time to arrange it in time. This far water cannot quench the near thirst, so it is probably too late to go." Chen Zizhuang replied.
"Jin Shenghuan, Wang Deren, like Li Chengdong, both came out of rebellion, surrendered to the Ming Dynasty and then to the Qing Dynasty. Such people rebelled over and over again, without loyalty and righteousness, and were only for fame and fortune. If the emperor promised him high-ranking officials and generous salaries, it would not be difficult to rebel against the Qing Dynasty anyway. I think that only a person who can speak and be versatile, moves him with emotion, explains him with reason, and lures money with money should be too late." Wu Bing voted in favor.
When he talked about Jin Shenghuan, Wang Deren, and Li Chengdong, he spoke very disdainful in his tone.
"But what you said first is reasonable, especially to lure him to wealth and children, which is exactly what I want. But first, my Ming Dynasty is in turmoil, and Li Chuang's great success and the Qing court have been changing. At this moment of national crisis, everyone's fate is also facing choices. There are always a few who can keep their true hearts and never betray them. At present, our dynasty is employed. No matter what he has done before, as long as he can make a comeback, he should not blame the past." Zhu Youlang said.
"Yes, I understand the emperor's painstaking efforts. Even people like Li Chengdong can be forgiven, and other rebel generals can naturally be forgiven. If you bring one over, there will be one less in the Qing court. If you win each other, it will be less difficult to defeat the Qing court and restore the territory of the Ming Dynasty." Wu Bing said.
"Yes, what I said first is exactly what I want. I have decided on the matters of Jiangxi, so I will arrange for Ma Jixiang to do it."
...
Ma Jixiang's intelligence agency is showing very fast.
This guy is indeed talented. He not only sent out the spies from the Jinyiwei, but also showed them to the lowest level. No matter what he is, the actor, the drummer, as long as he is useful, he will be able to show his eyes and ears.
The most clever thing is that he even reached out to the brothel tiles.
Guangzhou has a very strong prostitute industry, with tile houses everywhere, the largest and most high-end ones, such as Huancai Building, Jinfen Building, Manchunyuan, etc., and there are more than a dozen. However, no matter which one, the support of the government cannot be separated from the government. Those who do not have the background of the government are basically those low-level kilns.
The most advanced one is of course the Jiaofangsi.
The Jiaofangsi was affiliated with the Ministry of Rites and was originally an official palace music institution. It was founded in the Tang Dynasty and was called Jiaofang, which specialized in the teaching and performance of court customs music. It was once renamed "Yunshao Mansion". Jiaofang was also established in the Song and Yuan dynasties; the Ming Dynasty was converted into Jiaofangsi, which was affiliated to the Ministry of Rites and was in charge of music, dance and opera.
The people in the Jiaofangsi have a very low status and are called "Li Ji". Except for some recruitment, the source of the musical women is mostly a transaction that does not cost a lot of money.
The prisoner's wife and daughter are close to the Jiafangsi, which can be used as a money tree.
The wife and daughter of the corruption offender were sent to the chemistry department, or used it as compensation.
Most of the political prisoners’ wives and daughters were sent to the Education Office to embarrass and suffer from political enemies.
There are also people who went to the Education Office to capture the wife and daughter of the loser during the war, or the civilian women who were forcibly captured during the war, which is not a cost.
Perhaps because the source of these women was too cheap, the Jiaofangsi gradually changed its taste and became an official brothel.
...
Zhu Youlang naturally knew that this was a cancer of society, but now he still couldn't make any time to rectify it.
The policies previously introduced have offended the gentry. If the brothel is banned, it is probably going to offend all men.
There are many problems, come one by one, don't be anxious.
However, this time, Ma Jixiang's arrangements have been put into use when rebelling against Jin Shenghuan and Wang Deren.
The reason why he did not allow the Grand Secretary to participate in this matter was because his strategy was very impressive and he was afraid that those noble Grand Secretary would disdain for it.
To put it bluntly, his plan was a beauty plan.
"Ma Aiqing, I have something to do, and it must be done as soon as possible."
"Yes, please give me instructions."
"Choose a beautiful woman, who is good at speaking and can control her, and best have outstanding talents and appearances. Send someone to give to the deputy general of Jiangxi Wang Deren. Then, you do this like this..." Zhu Youlang said in a letter.
"Your Majesty, this matter is not difficult to deal with. Ding Kuichu's one wife, four concubines, three daughters-in-law and two daughters were sent to the Jiaofangsi by his ministers. Except for his old age, no one wants his wife, the others were bought by brothels. Among them, his eldest daughter Ding Mei was eighteen years old, and she was good at both sex and art, and she could get both piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, poetry and songs. If she was sent, she would definitely succeed. There was only one difficulty, please allow the emperor to allow her." Ma Jixiang thought for a while and proposed a candidate.
"You are too bad, right? Ding Kuichu's wife is not sixty, but fifty, so I sent her to the Jiaofangsi? What are you thinking?" Zhu Youlang cursed.
"Hehe, Master, Ding Kuichu's wife is less than fifty years old. Although she is a little older, she still has charm. Some are old bachelors who are willing to spend some money to play with this old guy, and some are specializing in this." Ma Jixiang smiled with a smile on his face.
"Ding Kuichu treason and his wife and daughter were insulted by this insult was his fault. However, her daughter probably hated me so much that she hated me and probably wouldn't do anything for me. Another thing is that, according to what you said, although Ding Mei entered a prostitute, she was born in a famous family and had a sense of awesomeness and pride in her bones. Such a woman, let alone refused to work for me, even if she was willing, someone like Wang Deren might not like it."
"The emperor clearly understands that Ding Mei is indeed very noble as the emperor said. However, after becoming a prostitute, she cannot tolerate her aloofness. On the contrary, she is very slutty on the bed, even more than ordinary prostitutes." Ma Jixiang said with a vulgar light flashing in his eyes.
"Damn it! This kid must have done it, otherwise how could he know so much? If he couldn't do it well, he would have done it instead. It's really a bargain!" Zhu Youlang thought angrily.
"Emperor, Ding Mei's biggest wish now is to let her mother and her sister Ding Lin get rid of her family. If the emperor can promise her this, I will be sure to do this." Ma Jixiang said.
