1795 Wrestling
The domestic situation in the Qing Dynasty has gradually entered a new stable period from the beginning of the chaos, but some of the expected chaos before the new stable balance arrives.
In the Qing Dynasty, the conservative forces represented by Cixi and Yi were temporarily at the top. They received secret support from France and Tsarist Russia, and relied on the force of the Xishan Camp to control the capital. The imperial court was already a dominant state.
The reformists led by Ci'an and Fuqing immediately lie dormant. Ci'an said he was sick and went to the Summer Resort to recuperate. Fuqing stayed in the capital for the time being to maintain the overall situation, but he did not dare to confront the Japanese. Even five days ago, Yi's housekeeper showed his might and went to Fuqing's telegraph office to withdraw 100,000 silver dollars of the so-called new army firewood and charcoal money.
This was a boring provocation, and Fuqing endured it and directly reimbursed the 100,000 yuan in the telegram project to make a payment.
Fu Qing's retreat was a signal, which meant that Ci'an also retreated. The faction of the court's Qin Yi was suddenly arrogant and almost walked sideways on the street.
Prince Chun Yihuan controlled the position of the Nine Gate Admiral in his hands, and the security forces in the capital were controlled by him. However, Yihuan did not dare to disobey his brother since he was a child. In this battle between the court, he could only be a good man and try to get along with him as much as possible.
Fuqing and the fifth master Yi Qiong reached a secret alliance, but in fact they turned to Ci'an's faction in disguise. Under Ci'an's arrangement, their military forces began to gradually grow in the Zhangjiakou area.
The Rehe Tutor and the Mongolian princes were still close to Ci'an. Now the temporary concession between Yi's is the best time to lie on firewood and taste gall to keep a low profile.
But Ci'an did not give it for nothing. The so-called concession is not a surrender that has been scattered. Her concession was forbidden defense. In order to avoid Yi's pursuit and fierce attack, Ci'an had to put down his figure and wrote a secret telegram and sent it directly to Zeng Guofan.
It is unknown to outsiders, but I believe Ci'an must have put down all his airs and hopes that the general will put the overall situation first for His Majesty, for peace in the world, and quickly go north to kill the Japanese Six's majesty.
Zeng Guofan moved, and led his troops north. He also met his old subordinates several times along the way. Although he only saw the soldiers but not the officials, the signal was too obvious. Yi? He smelled the threat.
Before Zeng Guofan entered the capital, Prince Gong's subordinates quickly began to act. The pens raised by the Japanese Six began to bite people like mad dogs, and began to impeach those Qingliu, who were loyal to the emperor and the exposed Hunan Army factions one by one.
The head of the Ministry of War, the Minister of Justice, the Chief of the Dali Temple, the Tongzhi of the Ministry of Personnel... Even the Qingliu in the Hanlin Academy was bitten. For a moment, the people in the court were panicked. Everyone knew that the Japanese Six was going to be a major purge. He wanted to wipe out all the dissidents in the court and replace them with his direct line.
The impeachment tide is getting worse and worse. Five days later, someone actually wrote a letter to impeach Li Hongzao and Weng Tonghe. These are two very important imperial teachers of Zaichun. If they are impeached and stepped down, there will be no confidants around Zaichun in the future.
Prince Gong made a move. Zeng Guofan, who had just arrived in Luomahu, was not willing to be outdone. At that time, he secretly sent a secret message to the direct descendants of the capital to counterattack. The memorial to impeach the six direct descendants of the Japanese flew into the palace like snowflakes.
But at this time Ci'an had already started to pack up and prepare to go north. The system of the two empress dowagers in the back of the curtain had long been destroyed. Cixi was happy and worried. She was happy that she finally became the only one who decided to do it. She was worried that Ci'an did not die but just left for a short time. If she did too much, she was afraid that she would make a list in the future.
This caused a strange phenomenon. The impeachment memorial in the Yangxin Palace was three feet high, but no one could be executed. To put it bluntly, the court had completely become a vegetable market. A group of gossips were cursing, but none of them actually took action.
Zeng Guofan is worthy of being the leader of the Han governor. After his official ship entered Zhili, the telegram from the governor of the world flew to the Forbidden City. Without a word, people didn't say who supported or not, so they asked the court a question.
"What are you doing? Have you been trying enough? Such a confrontation will make the court decent!"
Threat, a bare threat, the governor is just trying to beat Yi openly. No matter what you do, you have to worry about your face! If you continue to be so shameless, then we will be shameless!
Yi? This time I have experienced the bitter fruits of the Han governors and governors. Even if you are a chief official in the border area, you have never heard of the precedent of the dare to threaten the court in disguise.
Although what these people said was reasonable, the Han governors collectively warned the royal princes that this was the first time in the history of the Qing Dynasty.
It is unknown how many cups were smashed, how many furniture was smashed, and how many eunuchs were disabled, but when Zeng Guofan's counterattack began, the conservative style of impeachment was indeed restrained.
Zeng Guofan went north and was getting closer and closer to the capital. The cloudy clouds brought by this water dragon in the south made the four nine cities unable to breathe.
Perhaps Zeng Guofan was very low-key and tolerant in his later years in history, but in this world, the pattern of the late Qing Dynasty had long been broken, the Manchus' decline was faster than real history, and their madness was even worse.
Zeng Guofan knew that he had to use the following years before his death to shake off this unhealthy trend, at least until Emperor Tongzhi officially took power, and also until Xiao Letian's Chinese clan could gain a foothold.
Time is extremely precious to anyone. Everything Zeng Guofan did was to protect the Han people's vitality that had finally gathered together.
Before the Hongyang Rebellion, the two hundred years of suppression, slavery and brainwashing of the Qing Dynasty had already weakened the tone in the hearts of the Han people. It was this war that the Han soldiers used their blood to aroused the hope in the hearts of countless Han people.
This energy gathered, but it was still too weak, too weak! During the period when Xiao Letian left Asia, the conservatives would definitely try their best to disperse this energy.
Once it is broken up, it will be difficult to condense again!
"This tone cannot be dissipated! This soul cannot be destroyed! I will fight for my old bones, and I will stand in front to fight against thunder for you. Now I can control Yi? I am the only old man!"
The warships had already seen Tongzhou City from afar, and there were flags in the distance, which were the team of officials and civilians who welcomed the general to Beijing. There were gongs, drums and firecrackers coming from afar.
"Xiao Letian! Have you left? Get out of here if you haven't left. How many years can I bear this old bone for you?"
"You have already placed your bet on the Prussian side. Haven't you promised me that France will lose and Napoleon III will die? Then you go to Europe..."
"Start me with my own eyes! Order a coffin nail for Napoleon III for my old man!"
"If you lose the bet, I won't let you go even if I become a ghost!"
