"Queen Mother, it is not realistic to have a big discussion. The governors across the country cannot stop working and come to Beijing to hold court meetings. You must know that the Nian Army is not yet defeated, and the long-haired remnants are still there..."
"If there is really a big council, whether there will be people from Gansu and Shaanxi, whether there will be people from the Jungar princes, and you know that Huibu and Xinjiang are also mobilizing troops, we can't let them stop doing their business."
"If the Queen Mother is angry in her heart, it is better to say it calmly. I believe that the court will not let the Queen Mother suffer in vain..."
This was a very calm male voice. When the two princes looked for the voice, they found that it was an acquaintance.
"Bold Fuqing, what kind of place is this? You can't live without your words. I haven't even considered the crime of you and Xiao Letian secretly colluding. How dare you speak nonsense here." Yi? He became angry when he saw Fu Qing. , just Fuqing's resistance on Jingshan during this period has proved that he and Xiao Letian are very deep.
Yi Xuan said coldly, "Fuqing, you have to remember that the imperial court did not send you to Tanggu to live with Xiao Letian in a den of snakes and rats. Your sister also married Xiao Letian to monitor him, so don't forget Got the book..."
The words of the two princes made Fu Hui and Fu Qing blush. They knew that it would not be on the stage, but today they were thrown out by Ming. This was a slap in the face.
The subtext of the two princes is very clear. Don't think that you are anyone. You are just tools of the court and slaves of the Aisin Gioro family.
The Queen Mother is not at fault in this palace incident, only the servants are at fault. You have killed many Eight Banners soldiers. Sooner or later there will be a time to liquidate you.
"What are you talking about..." Ci'an said in a long voice, "If Fu Qing hadn't fought to the death to protect him, I'm afraid the Ai family would have been a corpse by now. This is the Ai family's Baturou, and you can't humiliate him even if you want to. "
Ci'an turned his head and said to Fuhui with kind eyes, "I'm sorry, don't be afraid, come over and rub Aijia's shoulders..." Then he said to Fuqing, "You are now a dignified second-grade official, what do you want to say?" Just say it boldly, the Aijia will make the decision for you..."
"Ah, what do you mean, Queen Mother? When did Fu Qing become a second-level official?" The two princes were so frightened that they jumped up from the ground.
"This is the oral order of the Ai family. From now on, Fuqing will be the second-rank minister of the Prime Minister's Yamen, second only to you Yi?, and will be responsible for special economic zones and innovation matters across the country...Fuqing, why don't you hurry up and give it to you?" Respect to your immediate superior."
"Queen Mother, this is against the rules. The appointments of second-rank officials are not discussed by the court officials. You cannot appoint them alone. Besides, when did the Prime Minister's Yamen have an additional department? What kind of job is it to manage national reforms? "
Yi? already felt a very strong sense of threat. He suddenly felt that the woman on the soft couch no longer recognized him, and a very strong smell of danger emanated from her.
It was no use for the two princes to kneel down and beg the Queen Mother to put aside their past grudges. It was no use for Weng Tonghe to plead with his forehead bleeding. It was even more useless for An Dehai to bring Ci Xi's goodwill. However, with just one word from Fu Qing, Ci Xi's anger disappeared. This is really Damn it.
Wait, why is there something wrong with the way Ci'an looks at Fuqing? Yi? He is also an old thief who is surrounded by women. He is known to have affairs. Even Cixi has taken advantage of him. This shows how many women are ruined by his hands on weekdays.
It is precisely because of his extremely rich experience that he is very sensitive to things between men and women. The way Fu Qing looks at Ci'an is relatively normal, but there is something really wrong with Ci'an's look at Fu Qing.
"Damn it, didn't that bitch Cixi spread rumors? Did Ci'an really steal a man?"
But now is not the time to be distracted and suspicious. Ci'an has already taken action, and he must have a countermeasure. Thinking of this, Yi? said loudly, "The imperial court has its own fixed procedures for awarding second-grade high-ranking officials. The Queen Mother cannot abolish it for personal reasons." Sir, if the two seals of Yushang and Tongdaotang are not sealed, please forgive me for not obeying..."
"Okay then, the Ai family is just waiting for Cixi to stamp it. When will the seal be stamped, when will the Ai family leave... Let's go find Cixi's treasure."
"You..." Yi? Let Ci'an suddenly become dumbfounded, thinking in his heart that this is not a rogue act.
When Yi Xuan saw that her brother had nothing to say, she quickly smoothed things over: "The Queen Mother...what did you say? It's easy to discuss. The two Queen Mothers are the foundation of the country. Since the East Queen Mother gave the order, the West Queen Mother will naturally follow Xiao Gui and Cao Cao." Yes, as long as the Queen Mother moves to the palace, everything will be easy to discuss..."
When Ci'an heard this, he winked at Fu Qing. The Third Master quickly took out a piece of paper from his sleeve and handed it over, "Your Majesty, now that you are also serving as the Admiral of the Nine Sects, I will contact you for this matter." You came to discuss..."
Yi Xuan subconsciously took the paper and looked at it, and suddenly became furious, "You...what do you mean?"
"It's not interesting. Please, Lord Admiral of the Nine Sects, please let me go..." The Third Master said calmly.
There was a long list of names written on that piece of paper, and these names were all very familiar to Prince Chun. Muge, Ellesu, Cheng Huai, Shishan, Shishui... There was a long list of names after that, and they were all reforms recognized by the imperial court. group.
Looking further back, there are actually a group of names of people who have not been arrested. It seems that they hope that the court will stop arresting them. The names of Luo Hao, Wen Xiu and others are also on it.
The palace coup launched by Cixi was supported by countless princes and ministers because she did it in the name of suppressing the reformists.
During this period, Prince Chun was in charge of the nine admirals and soldiers of Shuntian Mansion, and this was the job he did most.
"Fu Qing, it turns out that you are also a reformist. No wonder, you and Xiao Letian are like that and even married. You are naturally a reformist. Do you want to change the family law of your ancestors?"
The Third Master shook his head, "The only thing I care about is the country of our Qing Dynasty. All I care about is the country of our Qing Dynasty. As for the ancestral family laws, we keep the ones that are useful, and those that are useless or even harmful will naturally be discarded... …”
"How dare you insult our ancestors' family law..." Yi? cursed loudly, but before he could finish the curse, a figure rushed in from outside the door and rushed towards the third master.
"Reform, reform, reform... You first reform my life. Today you change the family law of your ancestors, and tomorrow you have to change the sage's words..." The one who rushed in was Weng Tonghe, the leader of Qingliu, whose forehead was bleeding. He pounced on Mr. Qing like a mad dog.
How could the third master be so familiar with him? He was swaying around just to prevent Weng Tonghe from getting close to him. He was so angry that he was gasping for breath.
"You have been brainwashed by Western evil spirits. Don't think that I don't know your plans. Do you want to abolish the imperial examination? Do you want to do what foreigners do? You beasts..." After scolding him, he continued Rushed over.
The entire Qiwang Tower was in chaos. Weng Tonghe was chasing the third master Qing like a dog, and the third master led him around the house. There were a group of eunuchs around to help break up the fight. After a while, the whole house was filled with smoke and dust.
Ci'an choked and coughed, "Cough, cough, cough... wanton... cough, cough, cough... you are rebelling, you must force me to death... cough, cough, cough..."
The ancestor who had been patrolling outside the hall couldn't stand it anymore. He rushed into the hall like a gust of wind, grabbed Weng Tonghe by the skirt of his clothes and threw him onto a chair. Taking advantage of the situation, he flicked the numb spots on the old man's arms and knees. For a moment, he couldn't move now, his whole body was sore and he was shaking on the chair.
"I'm here, old slave, let's see who dares to make a mistake..." This ancestor, who has been worshiping in the palace since the early years of Daoguang, has his hair and beard spread out and his eyes are about to spit fire. Even the two princes are a little bit... flinched.
There was silence in the room for a moment. Mr. Qing shook his head and put aside all distracting thoughts. He walked to the middle and said, "Since we have spoken out openly, let's stop hiding it. The two princes will act as lobbyists on behalf of the Queen Mother." , naturally you have to show your sincerity, and I didn’t say that the Queen Mother will just follow your principles..."
"The two princes don't allow us to make a bid."
"You..." Weng Tonghe said tremblingly, "Why have national affairs become the business of merchants? You have been brainwashed. You have been brainwashed by Xiao Letian."
"It's not a business of merchants. Bargaining is a natural thing. Why should you say whatever you say is what it is? Even if you, the majestic Queen Mother, can't control it, do you think that the Queen Mother is just a puppet on a string?"
A roar frightened everyone present and said they didn't dare.
"The Queen Mother has been wronged and her reputation has been damaged. Can't she make up for it? So many people were killed and injured in a palace incident. Could it be that all their deaths were in vain? Everything the Queen Mother of the West did was justified, but the conditions put forward by the Queen Mother of the East were just unreasonable. ."
At this point, the Third Master gritted his molar teeth and said quietly, "Could it be that you want to abolish the East Queen Mother and let the West Queen Mother dominate..."
"That's nonsense, Fu Qing, how dare you rant..." The two princes screamed like a cat that had its tail stepped on.
Ci'an's face turned pale with anger, "Whether you are talking nonsense or not depends on what you have done. These are the conditions of the Ai family. Fuqing, read it to me."
"In compliance with the Queen Mother's order and the Queen Mother's decree, the Department of Westernization has been established in the Prime Minister's Office, under the charge of the second-rank minister Fu Qing, who is responsible for the Qing Special Administrative Region and Westernization matters..."
"From now on, all reformists will be released. They will not be convicted in the name of reformists. All Manchu and Han subjects can freely discuss reform matters..."
"Xiao Letian is the person in charge of the Tanggu Industrial Zone approved by the imperial court. He has done nothing wrong in protecting the zone. In order to make up for the sins committed by Mailer, Tanggu Special Zone is allowed to be upgraded to the Bohai Special Zone... Xiao Letian is not guilty and has meritorious service."
"Also, the Qing Dynasty must have its own telegraph lines and railways. From now on, the Western Affairs Department of the Prime Minister's Office will take the lead in preparing... That's me..."
The Third Master shook the paper in front of him and said, "Look, look, the Queen Mother didn't ask for any benefit for herself. Until the end, it was all about the country and the country of Qing Dynasty..."
"As long as the imperial court agrees to the conditions of the Queen Mother, then this farce will naturally clear up and the Queen Mother will naturally return to the palace..."
Before he finished speaking, Ci'an, who was sitting on the soft couch, suddenly said, "Let me add one more thing. From now on, the Ai family will live in Jingshan. I live quite comfortably in Beihai. Unless there is a big court meeting or celebration, I won't live there." Entering the Forbidden City..." This book was first published from, be the first to read the authentic content!
