Of course, Cixi hoped that her son would have as many rights as possible. Among the requirements Zai Chun put forward, she only wanted too little, not too much.
Ci'an thought about the problem more profoundly. He had to consider the balance of the government. The Qing Dynasty could not afford to make troubles at the moment. There were rising Han warlords inside, and foreign devils and Chinese devils outside.
If the Manchus start fighting among themselves at this time, the situation will be unmanageable!
If you agree to Zai Chun's request, then the Xishan Camp in the hands of Guiziliu will definitely cause trouble, but if you agree to Guiziliu's blackmail, do you still want the dignity of Long Live Lord? Will it affect his governance in the future?
While Ci'an was hesitating, Zhou Daoying walked over cautiously and whispered in the ear of the Queen Mother, "The Queen Mother... The new Yulin Army came to Beijing with live ammunition. There are really bullets in their guns..."
Hiss... Ci'an felt as if he was meeting Zai Chun for the first time, looking at this brat who had been away from Beijing for five years with wide eyes!
Sure enough, he is older, taller, and has stronger bones. His formerly pale skin is now a healthy tan, especially his eyes no longer have the timid look of a child, but have been replaced by confident and proud eyes!
We must make a decision immediately and we cannot delay this matter any longer. The Han ministers will look at it differently!
"Preaching the Ai family's decree! Long live the new army of three hundred bannermen to be stationed at Donghua Gate. Since the long live master is used to his orders, there is no need to replace them!"
"The city defenses of Deshengmen and Yongdingmen are jointly managed by the nine gate admirals and the Yulin New Army. Each gate sends 800 soldiers, with each side occupying half!"
"Long live! You're not married yet, and you're not in charge yet. You have to do many things slowly!"
Zai Chun was not stubborn this time, but gave the Queen Mother a thousand dollars. "Since the Holy Mother and Queen Mother have spoken, if you have anything else to say, let's just follow the Queen Mother's wishes!"
Having said this, Zai Chun walked towards Yi Xin with a smile, picked up Prince Gong's hat from the ground, and respectfully put it on his uncle!
"Uncle, please wake up. Why is this necessary? My nephew is young and doesn't understand anything. He likes to make mischief. In the future, uncle, please give me some advice and stop talking about farming outside the customs..."
Guiziliu also smiled. He put on his hat and stood up. "Long live the words, I have seen a lot of things in the world during these five years of study abroad. Is there anything you can teach me?"
"Haha, of course the Qing Dynasty is going to change, but no matter how it changes, my thoughts will always be on the side of the Eight Banners. When the country becomes stronger, won't the salaries of our bannermen also have to increase?"
"I hope your uncle can be more considerate of your nephew's difficulties!"
"Don't dare, don't dare, Long live Lord Qiankun is arbitrary, what can I say..."
Guiziliu bowed his hands to the Queen Mother and saluted, "Your Majesty, the banquet has been given and the ceremony has been completed... I have been exposed to the cold wind for several days, and I will not attend the family banquet tonight due to the cold wind! Farewell..."
After saying that, Guiziliu turned around and left, and no one present dared to stop him. The Queen Mother of the two palaces just sighed and stopped talking... It was at this moment that the frightened Honglu Temple Qing plucked up the courage to go up. Ask for orders!
"Greetings to...the Queen...the Queen Mother...the banquet at Honglu Temple has been...prepared..."
"What are you waiting for? Hurry up... clean up the mess here... and the soldiers in front of the Taihe Palace, are they in a mess? They all moved to the open space in front of the Arrow Pavilion to eat..."
Ci'an reached out and grabbed Emperor Tongzhi's wrist, "Your Majesty, there is no need to toast. The Aijia of the Yangxin Hall have opened a small stove for you. Let's go eat!" After saying that, he dragged Zai Chun towards the harem.
The Japanese descended the imperial steps in six or three steps. When he passed by the formation of the new army in the imperial forest, the hair on his back stood up. He felt that three thousand pairs of wolf-like eyes were staring at him. .
He had heard and seen a lot about the bloody chaos in the Forbidden City. As long as Zai Chun moved his fingers, these tiger and wolf masters would immediately pounce on him and tear him alive.
Right now, Yi Xin feels like her life is no longer hers, and life and death are hanging on a thin line!
Walking faster and faster, walking faster and faster. When he walked out of Zhengdu Gate, Guiziliu simply ran away. He was afraid that a group of soldiers chasing him would suddenly appear behind him!
"You're careless, you're really careless...Why are you so careless? Why are you so careless?"
"No matter how many millions of soldiers you have, you are just a human body at the moment, with only one life. If you were to shoot down, wouldn't all your ambitions and ambitions be turned into ashes?"
"Even if he is imprisoned forever like Obai, it won't work. I hope that my incompetent sons won't be able to control Xishan Camp at all!"
"From now on, always remember that survival is the most important thing. Only by living can you have everything. If you die, everything will be over!"
The eunuch guards in the Forbidden City watched in shock as Prince Gong fled from the direction of the Hall of Supreme Harmony. After leaving the Meridian Gate, the servants who found his home turned around and ran away.
Yi Xin managed to save his life, but Zai Chun in the Yangxin Hall was not so easy to survive!
"You bastard, why don't you kneel down for the Aijia!" The two ladies drove away the people waiting around them and forced Emperor Tongzhi to kneel on the ground with his hands above his head and a book of filial piety.
"What do you want to do? What exactly do you want to do? Do you really want to kill your sixth uncle? How come you learned from Xiao Letian to be a snake-hearted person?"
Ci'an held up the fake braid and threw it on the ground. "Even if I am blind, I can still understand your plan to frame the situation! This braid is obviously fake!"
"The hair that grows on the back of your neck is not a fresh cut, it is a braid that was cut off a long time ago... Zai Chun, what do you want to do? What the hell did you learn when you went out!"
Zai Chun stuck out his tongue and smiled at the angry Ci'an, "Queen Mother, calm down, calm down, the whole thing is not as dark as you think, it's just a coincidence!"
"As for this braid... it was actually a little accident in England. I didn't cut it myself!"
How did he hunt with the British Crown Prince and the Prussian Crown Prince, and how did he achieve great success in battle? Then while camping and warming himself by the fire, the British Crown Prince accidentally ignited his own braid, and he was burned bald if he failed to save him in time.
"Mother, you don't know. The braid is as burnt as a bald-tailed eagle. It's really ugly, so I asked them to give them a Western-style haircut. It's very beautiful..."
"I have a photo here... Happy Fourth of July! Come in here, you little slave, and show the photo to the Queen Mother..."
As expected, the senior student rolled in like a ball, kowtowed in greeting, and then held out several photos taken in Europe with both hands!
Emperor Tongzhi, dressed in a crisp suit, rode a tall Arabian horse and posed in various poses, including shooting with a gun, holding a cane, taking off his hat on his chest, and sitting on a chair reading a book!
Not to mention, these Western-cut clothes are very decent and fit, and they are much neater than the clothes of the Qing Dynasty that were full of waste of fabrics.
Cixi looked at her son's heroic expression, she really saw it in her eyes and loved her in her heart, "Well... he looks good, he looks so good..."
Ci'an rolled his eyes at her, "How long has it been since then, and you still praise him? If you continue to praise him, he will be in trouble!"
