3557 Opening the Palace Gate at Midnight

"The Great Wall Beacon Incident can be big or small..." Sitting in the wind-proof sedan chair, Cixi was talking secretly with Li Lianying outside the sedan chair. She was surrounded by elderly people who had been carefully selected for many years, and her loyalty was reliable.

"Lianying... In the past two hundred years of our country's dynasty, eight out of ten of our energy in governing the country has to be put on the Han people. There is no way, who has made them so many people!"

"The population is large and the culture is rich. It is only a few decades since the Manchus entered the pass, and these Han people have spoken Chinese and written Chinese characters and even celebrated festivals, which are the customs of the Han people!"

"Oh... this is also impossible. If there are few people and more people, how can you not be trembling without being trembling!"

"So we must keep a close eye on the hearts of the people and keep a close eye on the mouths of Youyou... Their Confucian scholars say that guarding people is more important than defending rivers. In fact, human long tongue is the worst and cannot be prevented at all!"

"The former Ming Dynasty was engaged in spy politics, what happened to the Jinyiwei in the East Factory and the West Factory? He didn't defend himself. He had to repeat it after suppressing it for a while..."

"Yongzheng once appointed cruel officials. Is the Blood Drops powerful? The Wuzhou regime is also a cruel official. Every year, as soon as the imperial examination officials enter the palace, the eunuchs joked...a group of dead ghosts were sent!"

"But it's so strict, what's going on in the end? Not to mention the destruction of the people, the government will be over. They can't suppress such high pressure in their later years!"

"This group of people talked about it for a long time, and they were talking nonsense... Even though they knew that those Han people could not hold back, they still wanted to build a prison? What do you think..."

Li Lianying said with a flattering smile, "What the Lao Buddha analyzed is that they are all about crops, and they will be over when they encounter big things... How about the East Palace? After all, they are not the queen who has become a family member!"

"Only the Queen Mother, you, but you climbed up from the embroiderer step by step. Are you really capable of doing it?"

"Haha... You are just sweet-mouthed... Let's just say this here. Don't spread it to Beiyuan, that's amazing..."

Li Lianying lowered her eyebrows and directed the sedan chair to walk slowly, stopping Cixi, but she kept saying "Lao Fu is right, Xingdazhuo is not good enough to kill the Han people... Our national court still has to coax them now!"

"But this war fire incident has already occurred after all, and it cannot be solved? If the court had no reaction at all, just stayed like this...will the people of the world think...the court is weak and can be bullied?"

Cixi nodded, "What you said makes sense. It's not okay if this matter is hard or soft today... If you start a prison, you will completely offend the Han people's warlords with military power..."

"If you become soft, hundreds of millions of Han people in the world will have different thoughts... Alas... they have to completely forget this! They can't always think about this..."

"It seems that the pigs I raised before have come to slaughter...Li Lianying...you go and pass the order!"

Li Lianying lifted the soft curtain of the sedan chair and listened carefully to the empress dowager's instructions. Then the sedan chair entered Cixi's blessed land Chuxiu Palace. In less than a quarter of an hour, the popular Eunuch Li walked quickly towards the Military Affairs Office with Cixi's imperial edict.

At this time, the officials of the Military Affairs Office had gradually dispersed. The imperial meeting in Yangxin Palace just now did not have any results. At least everyone reached an agreement on the news control.

The Zongli Yamen went to negotiate with the foreign ambassadors, Zhou Daoying went to contact Qing Sanye to coordinate the Chinese newspapers, and Yihuan's Nine Gate Admiral also started a curfew throughout the city, and went to catch the lingering women who were lying about state affairs in one restaurant or another.

Officials from all departments received their own tasks and left the Forbidden City one by one. In the dark night, only some of the officials on duty were lit candles and staying up late.

Li Lianying is a eunuch, so the palace ban in the harem is useless to him. In addition, he has the imperial edict of the queen mother. The inner right door that had just been locked was opened by the guards in the south, and Eunuch Li came out of it.

There is an access control between the harem and the front three halls, and the inner right gate is one of them. Behind this gate is the Yangxin Hall and the West Palace harem, which is where women live.

The guards can still be on duty every night outside the inner right door, which is the south side. If a man dares to enter this door late at night, then wait for the whole door to be executed!

It's better during the day, after all, the Yangxin Hall behind the door still needs guards, and officials have to come in to discuss matters, so there are men walking back and forth in the inner right door.

But after this gate, the right low beam gate further south, is something that men must not enter if they are not summoned. Even if you look inside, you will be suspected.

The palace is deep, and royal majesty is not a joke!

"Oh... Eunuch Li is still giving the order to unlock the lock after playing like this? Where are you going..." The talkative guard held the key in his hand and opened the inner right door, and glanced southward.

"What are you looking at? Don't you want to live anymore, right? Who calls you the rules? Are you from that banner? What's your surname?" Li Lianying had never seen such a ruling guard who dared to peek at the harem late at night.

"Don't worry, father-in-law...don't worry, father-in-law..." The guards on duty quickly persuaded him. If this is pursued, it will be a crime of being a lie.

The new guard's face turned pale, and his legs were shaking like sieve.

"Well... the one with the red flag inlaid? Prince Li recommended it? Haha... Don't say that I don't give Prince Li a face, how did he recommend it? How dare he guard the inner right door?"

"I'm too lazy to take care of the Office of the Internal Affairs... Of course, there are rules of the Office of the Internal Affairs to take care of you!"

Prince Li Shize was the softest-tempered and most deceptive person in the capital. When Li Lianying heard that he was his Lanqin Flag, he naturally had no worries.

Li Lianying left the scared new guard and walked towards the military office with great strides. The military office was just west of the inner right gate, facing the Longzong Sect.

At this moment, the movement of the inner right door had already alarmed Zhang Jing on duty. They pushed open the door, wearing a cotton jacket that was protecting the cold, and looked out what happened.

At this time, a person came out of the innermost Han Zhangjing duty room. It was Li Tuo, who was familiar with Yang Zhi. When he saw Li Lianying's expression, he felt shocked.

Not too annoying, Li Lianying walked towards him with a gloomy face, "Mr. Li! Enter the house... The Queen Mother has an order for you!"

In addition to the adults' duty room, there are also Zhangjing and Hanzhangjing. Li Tuo, who is on the night of today, was piled up with boxes and cabinets everywhere.

Li Tuo didn't take a nap just now, but was sending a note that was not a big deal today. He wrote a brief summary on it.

"Mr. Li, please accept the order!"

Li Tuo fought one thousand times, half-kneeled and raised his head and smiled, "Dadlock is so bad, Xiao Xiao Zhang Jing can't call him a father-in-law... Just call me Li Tuo..."

As he spoke, a thick roll of Nanbao was stuffed into Li Lianying's sleeve. These were all veterans of bribery. When Li Lianying looked at the denomination and thickness of the Nanbao, he knew that it was 2,000 yuan.

When we met, we had two thousand dragon-patterned silver dollars. This Li Tuozhen was the best!
