The Eight Banners emphasizes the importance of superiority and inferiority. Just now it was announced that Fu Qing was speaking on behalf of Ci'an and Yibi, but after entering the house, Fu Qing quickly took off his raincoat and bamboo hat and knelt on the ground.
"My slave, I would like to pay my respects to the Fifth Master! I just delivered an edict on behalf of the Queen Mother. How disrespectful to the Fifth Master!"
Yi Pei was also a man who could take things up and let them go. He also knew that Fu Qing was no ordinary slave, so he didn't dare to show off in front of him and quickly reached out to pull him up.
"Bullshit, it's not rude or not. I'm the famous ridiculous bastard prince in the capital. Even the late emperor knew I was worthless. I don't have that many bad habits here. Come sit here and drink!"
Fu Qing took the towel given by Yan Zhihu and wiped the rain on his body, "Your Majesty, please make it easy for me to find him. There is no one in your palace, and I can't find him in the taverns and teahouses you like to hang out on weekdays. I will go out of the city." I went to your village to get stuck..."
"People in the capital are too talkative. I didn't dare come to see you blatantly, so I secretly broke in here in the name of drinking flower wine. I offended you so much just now..." Fu Qing quickly apologized to Yan Zhihu.
Fu Qing is a well-known handsome guy in the capital's women's circle. His legendary experience is enough to write a novel. Fu Kang'an's descendants have roots in Miaohong, and later they still have ambitions to join the army and pursue an official career. They met Xiao Letian in Xiling Legend Thus, he rose to great heights all the way.
This can be regarded as a beautiful counterattack for a small family from a small family in the capital. In addition, he has a good figure and good looks. I heard that there are some ambiguous scandals with the palace. Such a man is definitely poison to women.
Yan Zhihu liked Fu Qing's face as soon as he saw it. He was also a bit elegant in his martial arts, and he showed eight teeth when he spoke politely. (This bad habit was passed down by Xiao Letian. The etiquette in the late Qing Dynasty was still to smile without showing teeth. It looks unique.
"What are you talking about, sir? Aren't we going to serve you here? Come on, let the girls come in and let the third master take your pick..."
"It's necessary... I have important things to do today, so please step away from my sister Haihan. I have something to discuss with the prince alone!"
Yan Zhihu did not dare to neglect and quickly led everyone to withdraw the supplies. After reaching the front yard, she called two servants and said, "Go to see Yang Juewei and Mr. Li. Tell them that Fu Qing is here to pay their respects, and ask them to come as soon as possible..." "
After a while, the back door of the small courtyard was opened in the heavy rain, and several servants guarding the courtyard ran around to report to Yang Zhi, Li Tuo and others.
The prince and Fu Qing were the only two people left in the room. Fu Qing went straight to the point without turning around, "Your Majesty, do you know why the Queen Mother slapped you twice? Haha, the secret that the prince kept hidden in his mouth has been exposed!"
Yi Pei guessed that this was what happened. His expression changed slightly but he quickly calmed down. The oral instruction just passed on made it very clear that these were the two slaps given by the sister-in-law to the brother-in-law, not from the queen mother to the prince. It seems to be private.
"Ashamed, ashamed! I won't tell you why I raised those people, but I would like to ask the Queen Mother to make it clear... I am a yellow belt of the Qing Dynasty after all, and it is my duty to defend the Emperor and the Queen Mother!"
"That's good! The Queen Mother also understands that those five hundred people can't do anything big. She knows that Your Majesty is feeling uneasy, so she holds some money and people in her hands to prevent big changes... Haha, The Queen Mother knows this, otherwise why would she watch you making a fortune in Jiangnan without saying a word?"
Yi Pei's face turned red, knowing that the Empress Dowager had already mastered all her trump cards. She secretly sighed in her heart. Fortunately, Ci'an knew the secret. There was still some room for maneuver. If Ci Xi and Yi knew of her little plan, the consequences would be But it’s unimaginable.
"Lao San, I won't be polite to you anymore! Don't talk about being a master and a servant. You are also a descendant of the Eight Banners, and you are a relative of our Aixinjueluo family. I will call you Lao San. …”
"Yes, I, Yi Pei, just need some money and guns to prevent trouble in the future... Don't you understand this court? Someone has already made it clear that they don't want the emperor to take power. There will definitely be a big conflict in the future!"
"I, Yi Pei, have a few people on my hands. One of them wants to protect himself and the other wants to help the emperor in the future. I only have this little thought in mind, so I will tell the queen mother everything. No matter what the queen mother does with me, I will accept it without saying a word. , even if you take away my title of king and find a place to encircle me, I will have no regrets!"
With a bang, Fu Qing slapped the table, "Okay! I'm so happy, Fifth Master is so happy! Then I won't hide it from you. The Queen Mother is about to go north to Chengde. Before leaving, I have a big gift for you... …”
The thunder is like a drum and the rain is like a downpour! Fu Qing and Yi Pei conspired quietly, and their judgments on the court situation gradually became consistent.
At present, the Qing Dynasty has become peaceful except for Zuo Zongtang in the northwest who is still fighting hard. The long-haired remnants and the Nian Army have been pacified, and the local areas have begun to enter a period of economic recovery.
With no battles left to fight and the people's minds settled, the Han's military strength would show a slow downward trend, which meant that Zeng Guofan's power had passed its peak and would surely decline in the future.
The Han governor has nothing to fear for the time being, and although Zeng Guofan is a bit domineering, the possibility of rebellion is really low. His threat to Zaichun can be put aside for now.
The foreign devils are now engaged in internal strife and will not pose any threat to the Qing Dynasty in the short term, and Xiao Letian is Zai Chun's master, so this threat can be put aside for now.
The only one who can threaten Zai Chun's pro-government is the Devil Liu in front of him!
There is no doubt that Yi Pei and Fu Qing are both die-hard royalists. They firmly believe that Zai Chun is the hope for the future of the Qing Dynasty. This is also the unified view of many courtiers.
The purity of Zai Chun's bloodline and legal system amazes Westerners. You can't fault his unreasonable governance in any aspect. Moreover, Zai Chun is very smart, and even if he has a bad temper, he is not intolerable.
In Confucian terms, this is really the seedling of a sage.
However, if Zai Chun wants to ascend the throne, he must deal with the threat of Prince Gong Yi, especially his Xishan Camp. I don’t know how the quota was originally 20,000, but in the past few years, due to various coincidences, it has become 7 Quota for 10,000 people.
This is already the strongest military front in the capital. If Zaichun cannot control this army, then his pro-government will be like a flower in the well.
"The Queen Mother said that the Fifth Master is a loyal man and will never be disloyal to His Majesty. He is trustworthy when entrusting matters to him... Fifth Master, the Queen Mother has secretly ordered that the wealth accumulated by my reformist faction be handed over to you... "
"Let's unite our forces and hide first. When His Majesty gets married, we will stand firmly on His Majesty's side! Only in this way can we deter Prince Gong's ambition!"
"End the war with war! The only way to avoid civil war in the future is to let Guizi Liu see that there are soldiers behind the emperor and let him feel fear and worry in his heart!"
"Fifth Master! The future of the Qing Dynasty is in your hands!" Fu Qing said with tears in his eyes.
Yi Pei's eyes were red with excitement, "Damn, I, Yi Pei, have been so important to me! Father! Father... Open your eyes and see, I'm not as incompetent as you think! Me too The pillar of the Qing Dynasty, I can also be the anchor of the Qing Dynasty!"
"Done it! Why do I have to let future generations remember my fifth master's font size!"
