A bloody coup finally came to an end. From the moment when Zai Chun's New Army clashed with the Xishan Camp at the beginning of the year, the intense offensive and defensive battles dazzled the people of the capital!
The new Yulin Army entered the capital forcefully, and upon their return they took away the right to guard the Donghua Gate. They also took the two north gates of the capital into their hands!
The military control of the three city gates was a hole that Zai Chun tore through the iron mesh of the capital's bureaucracy. Only with the gates could there be room for advancement and retreat!
If an emperor can't even control his family, then he really becomes a prisoner!
Apart from anything else, if Zai Chun had not used force to seize the door, then he would not have the right to enter and exit the palace at will!
Don't underestimate this right. There are not many emperors in China who have had such rights for thousands of years. As long as a king leaves the palace and enters the private life, he will always be criticized by many officials and even scholars! ,
The imperial power is locked within the palace walls. It's best if you, the emperor, don't know any outside information and just listen to their fooling around!
Originally, the officials of the Manchu and Qing Dynasties, who were stubborn in their ways, had this idea in mind. They used ancestral rules to trap Zai Chun in the Forbidden City, and they did not allow you to leave the palace and contact the people!
But no one expected that Zai Chun, whom Xiao Letian had taught him, had turned into a wild and untamed Hummer. No matter what the rules of the previous three generations were, he would just crash into it and be smashed to pieces!
This domineering attitude shocked the hearts of the ruling and opposition parties. The veterans, especially the conservative forces, were frightened. They found that Zai Chun had revealed the shadow of a strong king. It was not good to hang out with a strong king, and his life was at risk!
The conservatives who were under pressure were not willing to let Zai Chun gain power so smoothly. In order to protect themselves, they launched the forced palace campaign in Bajiao Liulijing!
Using Zai Chun's silver treasury hidden outside the palace as a starting point, we seize silver, force the palace, and kill people... The purpose of this series of killing moves is to beat Zai Chun and tell you that our conservative forces are still very strong. You are in trouble. You have to discuss it with us, you can’t take away all your rights!
Warnings and threats showed that it seemed that Zai Chun had been honest for a few months, but he did not expect that these months of dormancy were actually a matter of trying his best to plan a bigger counterattack!
I really didn’t expect that Zai Chun actually used foreign power to take advantage of his own self-respect, using overseas power and even the power of the world’s capitalists to collectively fight back against the conservative forces!
Foreign merchants, banks, industrial zones...even Hart's customs took action in the end, as if invisible hands brought all these forces together and suddenly emerged from the deep water. Kill the old guard by surprise!
These forces were already difficult to resist, but Xiao Letian was unexpectedly more ruthless and used the gimmick of rescuing Dr. Huang to directly intervene with troops!
Originally, the special force wanted to give a warning and scare the Manchu Qing court, but somehow, by some strange combination of circumstances, this threatening military operation actually turned into a one-sided massacre!
That night in the capital, more than 500 Guangbanners died in battle, and 300 Han troops in the Xishan Camp also sacrificed their lives, so that’s 800 lives!
It was only at this moment that Yixin realized that Zai Chunzhen was not a good person. This brat was not over twenty years old but he had already developed a ruthless and vicious heart!
After the airship incident, the conservative forces were completely suppressed. Yixin's claim of illness made everyone no longer dare to raise objections to Zaichun's reform plan!
In 1872, the coup led by Emperor Tongzhi was a great success!
In the Qianqing Palace, Zai Chunzhi looked at the kneeling civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty with satisfaction. He knew that many of these people may not be convinced, but just shouted a few words of "convinced"!
But this is no longer important. It’s enough that I can scare you into taking it. The tide of the times is rolling forward, and sooner or later the conservatives will be swept into the garbage heap of history!
Thirty years is enough time for me to promote my great cause of innovation, and it is also enough time for me to replace you all!
Unprecedentedly, the little emperor didn't leave until the eunuch shouted "Sanchao". He just stood in front of the throne and enjoyed the pleasure of being surrendered to him!
None of the ministers dared to accuse the emperor of violating the etiquette. For things like leaving the court, the emperor would leave first, and only after the emperor left could the ministers leave the palace!
But who dares to get into trouble today? No one dared to reason with Zai Chun. Even Weng Tonghe, Li Hongzao and other civil servants who loved to teach him rules pretended not to know, and left the Qianqing Palace with low eyebrows and submissiveness!
The court dispersed, and a group of 'dressed beasts' dispersed like birds and beasts and walked out of the Qianqing Gate!
After a long while, Da Sixi said cautiously, "Your Majesty! All the officials have dispersed... It's time for you to have lunch..."
"Well... let's go to Beiyuan... I have to thank my benefactor!"
The young emperor was carried by a chariot on his shoulders and swaggered through the Shenwu Gate to Beiyuan. In the Qiwang Tower on the high Jingshan Mountain, many eunuchs and maids were preparing today's noon meal!
In front of the Qiwang Tower, Cai Bixia, dressed in casual clothes, was standing at the best viewing angle looking at the towering Forbidden City in the south, watching the groups of soldiers patrolling back and forth, and watching the emperor's chariot passing through like a swarm of small ants. sky Street!
She is the protagonist today, and Zaichun must thank this senior sister! The entire plan for Emperor Tongzhi's counterattack would have been impossible to formulate without Cai Bixia's advice!
Cai Bixia also put in a lot of effort not only in formulating plans, but also in internal communication and coordination. God knows how many resources this woman has behind her, and how many teams are following his orders!
At least Cai Bixia knows that the CIA currently has more than thirty transmitters and coding translators for her. As long as Cai Bixia needs him, he can see the headlines of the Times that day!
Cai Bixia also knew that shopkeeper Fan Jian had a team cooperating with her. There were many backup plans in this coup!
If the special team fails or is captured, Sihai Trading Company and the Mi Group will come out in force, using their strong reserves of funds and materials to completely disrupt the price of goods in the capital!
As long as they are cruel, they can make the price of goods in the capital increase tenfold overnight, or they can hit the bottom overnight!
This woman is so powerful. Standing here, she has a unique aura that can overpower the entire royal aura!
Zhou Daoying and other eunuchs were already a little scared. These eunuchs and maids really didn't understand why an overseas savage could be so indifferent in the royal garden.
It was as if the imperial power had no pressure at all in front of her. This was a royal palace. How could it be as easy as walking in Dashilar?
How did Xiao Letian find people? This is no ordinary product!
Ci Jing was drinking tea quietly in Qiwang Tower. She looked at Cai Bixia's back outside the palace and couldn't help but sigh in her heart, "Such an unruly woman, this free and independent demeanor... is so eye-catching!"
"A child like Zai Chun who is used to seeing slaves will definitely be fascinated by this demeanor...it's so fresh!"
