Satin (pi) library! This is a very important warehouse in the Nanchizi area. It belongs to the Ministry of Internal Affairs. It stores all kinds of silk and satin cloth sent to the capital from Jiangnan, Sichuan and other places.
Of course, fine fine silks and satins must be kept in the Forbidden City, and they may even be distributed directly to the heroines of the Three Palaces and Sixth Courtyard. However, it is not only the masters who want to pass on silks and satins in the Forbidden City.
Those eunuchs and maids also consume some silk and satin every year. I dare not say high-end, but mid-range and low-end goods are available for both young and old. These large-material silk and satin cloths are stored in the satin warehouse on Nanchizi Street.
In later generations, this place was named Danghui Hutong, and Xiao Letian also visited here in his previous life.
People like Bai Guixiao never imagined that Prince Su and his group were actually in the warehouse. This is a dignified prince! Why did you run into the warehouse?
Little did he know that since the outbreak of the civil war, Zai Chun had been guarding against these Eight Banners nobles as much as he was against thieves. In the name of protection, he imprisoned all the royal nobles in the capital in the imperial city.
Of course, these people were not qualified to live in the Forbidden City. Zai Chun didn't bother to see them, so he placed these people in Nanchizi, Beichang Street, Dongheyan west of Shejitan, Nanfu and other places.
Some of them were even imprisoned to the Renshou Temple, Zhantan Temple, and Xishiku in the west of Beihai. You are indispensable for three meals a day.
The wives, concubines, and maids around you can also live with you, but there is no freedom!
As the war became more and more tense, especially after Prince Qing and Prince Chun fled to the British Embassy, Zai Chun became even more vigilant when he saw the relatives within the Eight Banners, and monitored them more strictly. Not only the eunuchs and the lord The guards came to take care of him, and the new Yulin Army also sent some soldiers to take care of him.
This was a group of hostages. Zai Chun used the lives of these people to control all the bannermen in the city. After all, the bannermen in the capital were all slaves of these royal nobles.
The plan worked indeed. There was no serious civil unrest in the capital during the early stages of the civil war. This was all due to the imprisonment strategy.
But when the golden yuan coupons were introduced and a group of princes represented by Prince Zheng were revealed to have secretly dug gold outside the customs, the last trace of tenderness in Zai Chun's heart for these relatives disappeared.
What replaced him was deep hatred. If he wasn't afraid of people being shaken, he would have wanted to order all these bastards to be killed.
Since he knows that these royal nobles will never be of the same mind as him, he cannot give them the slightest chance to cause trouble. In recent days, Zai Chun has ordered a major rotation of these imprisoned princes.
It's not that Zai Chun didn't have a plan, and it wasn't that he didn't have his own group of advisers. In fact, he had also thought about the possibility of city-wide turmoil in the capital.
Although he cannot have a general staff like the Chinese to conduct the most detailed deductions, he can also carry out limited preparations.
These imprisoned princes, princes, princes and beibels have countless domestic slaves and direct descendants in the capital. Every one of them can quickly form a team when released. Their identity is like a big flag.
In order to prevent these noble people from being rescued by the minions outside, let's just do a big rotation. I will let you people outside never guess where these people are being held.
When Prince Su saw people from Guiziliu outside coming to rescue them, his eyes were filled with sadness, "Don't say it... We moved to three places a day. We were still at Pudu Temple in the morning, and were sent to the Dangtang Library in the afternoon. Already..."
"Yesterday I was at the Beichang Street Construction Bureau...my legs have become thinner these days!"
Prince Su was talking in a nonchalant manner, and he was complaining without any focus. At this time, a head suddenly appeared on the wall, and Bai Guixiao was startled when he saw it, "Oh... I'd like to pay my respects to the prince!"
Another prince appeared, and the heads of two princes were exposed on the wall. It was Prince Zheng Chengzhi who was arrested because of the gold yuan coupon incident.
"Little bastard... we don't have time to talk to you anymore... rush in... there are more than 20 guards inside... No, they are here..."
As he spoke, Prince Zheng Chengzhi threw several bolts of silk from the wall, "Climb in quickly... Kill these thieves and save us!"
Bai Jiaoxia has seen Prince Zheng Chengzhi, so naturally he won't ask who he is hanging out with. No one in the capital knows that Prince Zheng and Prince Gong are from the same faction.
"Fight in..." A group of thugs grabbed the silk and satin and climbed up. The silk and satin in the yard had been tied to the big tree. They explained that the silk and satin were all high-quality tribute from Jiangnan and Sichuan and were very strong.
One after another, thugs rushed in, and soon there were loud gunshots and shouts of killing, mixed with the frightened screams of women and children.
Bai Jiaoxiao is not that good at it. He listened anxiously to the shouts of death from inside the outer wall. "What the hell... I even forgot about the cannon... I blew up the door of the satin warehouse!"
Boom... there was a loud noise, the heavy door latch was blown off, the warehouse door was blown open a hole wide enough for one person, and half of the door latch flew out.
Kill... Hundreds of thugs rushed in and attacked the Ouchi guards who were guarding inside. None of the loyal direct descendants sent by Zai Chun escaped. They were all hacked to death with knives and shot at random.
The white turtle took a look and saw that the three princes, Prince Zheng, Prince Su, and Prince Dorokqin... were all imprisoned here. Four or five Baile were also imprisoned. The white turtle was too lazy to salute one by one. .
I saw him kneeling next to Prince Zheng with a pop, holding a white towel in his hand, "Your Majesty... the minion Bai Xiaoxiao is Prince Gong... no, no, no... a direct line secret agent trained by Emperor Guangxu for many years!"
"Tonight, the whole city of Forty-nine City has raised troops. We will overthrow the Hunjun together... Now that the prince has escaped from the cage, the command of this team should be yours!"
"Okay, okay...you are good...tell me about the situation outside!"
When Prince Zheng heard the news that Tianjin had been captured by Ronglu, Hunchun had been killed in a bombing, and the Beijing-Tianjin Railway had been cut off, he clapped his hands excitedly.
"Hahaha... God helps me, God bless the Qing Dynasty... Long live Emperor Guangxu!"
"Say nothing more...raise the flag, don't save any face for the Hunjun at this time! What a fool to rebel against him...there are plenty of silks and satins in the satin treasury, raise the flag immediately..."
The three princes did not dare to fly bright yellow flags, but they could fly goose yellow or khaki flags. Anyway, there was silk and satin here, so the women could cut a piece temporarily without trimming the edges.
Tie it directly to the flagpole and write your royal name directly on it.
With a huge brush dipped in black ink, the characters of Prince Zheng, Prince Su, and Prince Keqin were written on the flag. This is to show the identity and officially raise the flag.
Those below the rank of prince use red satin as a flag!
"The flag has been set up...it is the vanguard of Emperor Guangxu! Let's gather all the servants in our families together! Kill the faint king and change the dynasty..."
"Long live Emperor Guangxu...Long live the Eight Banners' political agenda..."
