Because this copy was to impeach Weng Tongshu. When the Beiyang Navy was established, the rights were basically in the hands of Weng's family, so Li Hongzhang was deliberately blocked. Because of the copy, they forged a hatred, and their past was completely inspired, which also made their getting along the biggest resistance. That's why there are so many disadvantages in the development of Beiyang military division.

Therefore, the development of this Beiyang Navy was greatly hindered. And then slowly fell behind. Originally, the copy written by Li Hongzhang at that time was particularly good in Zeng Guofan's view, and he also gave the impeachment letter to the emperor. But this copy has hurt the interests of our family, and at the same time our family has made enemies with Li Hongzhang and Zeng Guofan. So later, Weng Tongshu was called to Beijing by the emperor. He was originally in accordance with the law at that time, and Weng Tongshu was going to be questioned.

But at that time, the strength of Weng's family was particularly high, and there were many people who put in a good word for Weng Tongshu. So the emperor didn't want to be too embarrassed because of Weng Tongshu, so he exempted Weng Tongshu from the death penalty in the second year. Although the death penalty is exempted, the living crime is inevitable. At that time, Weng Tongshu was directly exiled to Yili. The public holiday has forged a sworn enemy with Zeng Guofan and Li Hongzhang. At that time, Zeng Guofan had great power in his hands.

So even if the Weng family wanted to get back at Zeng Guopan, he couldn't help it. After all, Zeng Guopan still held Xiang in his hand, so that he later took all his anger out on Li Hongzhang.
