Marshal Zeng's counterattack in Dongnuan Pavilion has already made Yi Xin feel more pressure. Zeng Guofan's soldiers were out of danger and the students were looking for breakthroughs from the source of the intelligence. They couldn't expand the results of the battle despite the pressure of Guiziliu!
But compared to the fight at the court meeting now, it was nothing more than child's play. These words in front of Jingyun's door completely threw Yixin's heart into the ice cellar!
He did not expect that it would be so difficult to deal with Xiao Letian, let alone Zeng Guofan. Is that man in Donghai really a monster?
Have you penetrated people's hearts to this extent? Could it be that just by guessing, one can guess his strategy of trying to restore the Eight Kings’ political agenda?
If what Zeng Guofan said is true, then this man really cannot be classified as a human being!
Yi Xin anxiously walked back and forth in Jingyun Gate, his forehead covered with sweat. Suddenly he discovered two guards standing guard inside Jingyun Gate.
He glared at them both fiercely, then turned around and walked west, "Come... give Lian Xing a message. All the guards on duty at Jingyun Gate today have been transferred to me! They have been sent out of the capital. Today, Zeng and I If every word of what the commander said were spread, none of these guards would survive!"
The butler who had been following the prince like a ghost in hanging boots immediately called Qian Qian to take orders, then turned around and ran towards the Ministry of Internal Affairs!
Who did these guards in Jingyun Gate offend whom? What a sudden disaster, he was sent out of the capital just after hearing such a few words!
To the north of Jingyun Gate, that is, to the east of Qianqing Gate, there is a row of houses, which is basically symmetrical to the row of houses in the Military Aircraft Department!
Of course, this row of houses is not as famous as the Military Aircraft Department, but in fact, in the history of the Qing Dynasty, this row of houses is actually very important, because this is the room where the ministers of the bodyguard and the imperial ministers are on duty!
That is, the leadership office of the entire Forbidden City security force!
The person on duty today was none other than Cixi's younger brother Cheng'en Gong Guixiang. He was secretly peeking through the window lattice and saw several of his familiar subordinates being called away by people from the Ministry of Internal Affairs!
"This is overstepping! This is seizing power! It's so unreasonable, so unreasonable..."
Guixiang is not as strong as his sister. He only dares to curse in his heart but does not dare to rush out and confront Guiziliu!
"Just wait, I will go to the Queen Mother to file a complaint against you later!"
In Guixiang's eyes, Prince Gong stood beside the Danbi Stone in the north of Baohe Hall for a while, seeming to stare at the dragon and phoenix on the Danbi Stone. After a while, he walked away lonely and walked towards the Meridian Gate. !
At that moment, the officials in the previous court had already dispersed!
At this time, Guixiang dared to walk out of the house and whispered to Eunuch Sura next to him, "Go... give a message to the inner palace, saying that I want to see the Queen Mother!"
After saying that, Guixiang took off his waistband, took out three shiny dragon-patterned silver coins from his purse, and stuffed them into the hands of the little eunuch!
The little eunuch quickly kowtowed and thanked him, then trotted straight to the inner right door!
It is naturally much more convenient for the emperor's uncle to see the Queen Mother than for ordinary people, even if his nephew is being disciplined at the moment!
Soon Guixiang got a reply from the young eunuch, asking him to go directly to Yangxin Hall to meet the Queen Mother!
Before going out, Guixiang carefully looked outside and saw that the officials had almost dispersed, so he quickly and cautiously walked towards the Yangxin Hall!
"Kneel down! Just kneel down in Sanxi Hall! When will you know that you are wrong?"
On the west side of Yangxin Hall, Dongnuan Pavilion is divided into areas. The largest area upon entering is the famous Qinzheng Qinxian Hall!
Only one person can rule the world, how can he serve one person for the world?
The most famous couplet of Yongzheng is hung here. The horizontal mark of the couplet is the four characters of "diligence, affinity and virtuousness"!
Under the couplet is a large couch, not for sleeping, but for the emperor to sit or lean on, a high-end chair that can relax and handle official documents!
Of course there is no emperor sitting today. Sitting on the couch is the Empress Dowager Cixi of the West, who is roaring towards the Sanxi Hall in the inner room!
When Cheng'en Gong Guixiang walked to the door of Yangxin Hall, he heard his sister's roar. He was so frightened that he didn't dare to go in. He winked at Li Lianying outside the threshold!
Li Lianying's face turned pale with fright, and she shook her head at Cheng'en Gong Guixiang, "That means you'd better come in directly, don't let me get into trouble!"
Normally, Li Lianying would have to welcome him out, have a good chat with the Queen Mother's brother, be a favor, and introduce what just happened.
But today he didn't dare, because Cixi had already made Tianling Gai so angry, and Zai Chun was forced to kneel down in Sanxi Hall. No one could plead for mercy!
Guixiang braved the threshold and walked in. After entering the house, he knelt down in front of his sister, "Your Majesty, Guixiang, pays your respects to the Queen Mother. The Queen Mother is a thousand years old..."
"Stand there! Don't talk yet..." Cixi said to her younger brother without looking back, and then continued to scold her son.
Guixiang quickly got up and stood aside. Li Lianying took small steps over and whispered, "My Lord Cheng'en... you came at the wrong time!"
"The Queen Mother is very angry! Just now, Queen Mother Dong's pleas were in vain. In the end, Queen Mother Dong was so angry that she went back to Beiyuan!"
"Today's matter is really difficult to handle...Long live the Lord to make Prince Gong a misfortune!"
Of course, Guixiang also heard in the duty room that there was a commotion at the Yangxin Hall, but he didn't know to be so careful. After Li Lianying repeated it to him, he immediately regretted it!
Why am I so stupid? I'm so angry! If I had known it was so serious, I would have come back tomorrow!
Li Lianying knew very well the temper of Duke Cheng'en, and he was weak and unwilling to cause trouble, but it was up to him to resolve the situation today!
"Mr. Cheng'en... let me tell you clearly! You can persuade the Queen Mother now, and no one else can!"
"My mother-in-law, if you don't come forward, the emperor will have to kneel down and break your bones! You have been kneeling for an hour, and you haven't even been given lunch!"
"Eat! What to eat? He'll starve to death until..." Cixi's ears were quite sharp, and she actually heard the whispers of Li Lianying and Duke Cheng'en!
Cixi jumped down from the couch, walked to the door of Sanxi Hall, pointed at her son with her long fingernails, and cried, "Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu...How could I have given birth to such a rebellious son like you?"
"If you had listened to my mother-in-law at all, why would you have done this? Woohoo...you are so heartless!"
"You never told me the truth from the beginning to the end... The British gave you so much money, and you didn't even tell anyone about it!"
"You don't even believe that you kissed your mother? Woohoo...what's the point of me still being alive?"
"You just let the evil devil Xiao Letian wash your mind...Have you even forgotten your filial piety?"
"If you had told E Niang about these things, could E Niang not help you look after the money? Why would you let Guiziliu snatch it away? You are a traitor... you are a traitor!"
