3687 The Big Picture Matters
Hula, Hula... From the inner right door to the back right door and then to the center right people west of the Supreme Hall, there were a burst of panic footsteps.
The imperial chariots of the two palace queens were carried by eunuchs, surrounded by palace maids, eunuchs and guards, heading straight to the Taihe Hall from south to north.
The depressed Japanese Six led the way in front, and the dignified Qing Dynasty Prime Minister Wang, ran away like the third grandson.
Originally, at the ceremony of Emperor Tongzhi's return to the palace, there was a ceremony for paying homage to the two empress dowagers in the palace of Yangxin. Zaichun accepted congratulations from all officials in the palace of Taihe. After the banquet, the emperor drank three drinks and said a few polite words. Then he wanted to go to Yangxin Hall to meet the two mothers.
These are all procedures that the Ministry of Rites has set before, but the two empress dowagers spent their time talking about the chess and talking about it, but they received bad news from Prince Gong.
"The Empress Dowager... The Empress Dowager is not good... His Majesty launched a palace change, and three thousand imperial guards surrounded all officials and wanted to kill his brother..."
"Sister-in-law... the two sisters-in-laws, save Yi? Let's have a life! Long live the palace change..."
"Ah!" Yunshi chess pieces fell all over the ground, and there was chaos in the Yangxin Palace!
"Carry the imperial chariot and take us to see Master Long live... It's just nonsense!"
Hundreds of people surrounded the two empress dowagers and princesses, hurried out of the Yangxin Sect, turned south and left the inner right gate!
It happened to be Isha on duty today, so he naturally ran with his guards. Along the way, he saw the diorama. The entire Forbidden City was panicked and everyone stopped working. They were so scared that their faces were pale and looking at the direction of the Supreme Hall.
When passing by the military office, Isha saw Li Tuo. Zhang Jing shook his head at him, then stroked his index finger horizontally on his lips. The meaning was too obvious, just to prevent you from talking nonsense.
Isha nodded, subconsciously slowed down, and retreated to the end of the team.
After running through Baohe Hall, Zhonghe Hall, and bypassing the middle right gate of the Supreme Hall, Cixi and Ci'an finally saw the chaos in front of the Supreme Hall Square.
The three thousand imperial guards filled the entire square in a dark way. Although no one took action at the moment, the murderous look was very cunning.
In the past, the imperial guards in the palace, the pioneer camps, the tiger gun camps, the cavalry camps, etc., all the old men brag about the day, but today they faced these tough mountain people in Wuyi Mountain, all of them had a bit of calves.
"Things that are ineffective are all cowards!"
Ci'an yelled, "What do you want to do? The Ai family is not dead yet. The sky in the Qing Dynasty cannot fall! Everyone retreats, and all those with weapons and weapons will withdraw from the imperial stairs!"
"What's wrong? Do you still want to attack the guy Liang of the Ai family? Whose bullet is good? Just shoot the Ai family twice!"
"The Empress Dowager is lucky!" All the ministers knelt down.
The two empress dowagers came forward, and this was the current legal ruler of the empire. The system of governing the country from behind the curtain was also recognized by all countries. The foreign devils in the Palace of Supreme Harmony had to stand up and salute when they saw the empress dowager.
The New Imperial Army and the original guards in the palace all retreated huh-raily, and only officials were left on the high imperial stairs.
Ci'an showed the demeanor of the Princess Palace and glanced at Fuqing, "Fuqing! You are the deputy minister of the Zongli Yamen, and you have to take care of diplomatic affairs..."
"Go and ask all the ministers of various countries to leave... Tell them that the court will invite the ambassadors to apologize another day!"
"Wow..." Fu Qing quickly walked to the gate of the Hall of Supreme Harmony and whispered to the ministers of various countries.
Although the Qing Empire has declined at this moment, it has not fallen to the point where it has fallen behind the Eight-Nation Alliance. There is still a basic respect for the Qing Dynasty by Western powers.
Several ministers could not stay, so they could only leave the Hall of Supreme Harmony with their subordinates regretfully, and led a group of eunuchs to leave the Taihe Sect!
After sending off the foreign devils, Ci'an was not polite. She pointed at the officials on the imperial stairs and shouted loudly, "What's going on? What's going on? Where is the braid of Long Live? Why did it break?"
"Speak! They're all mute?"
Cixi was even more anxious. She was so sad that her son suffered such a big loss. "Yi?! What did you just say? Long live to kill someone? Why is Long live to suffer a loss now?"
"Why are there no braids?"
Ermao gave the senior high schooler a wink. Senior high schooler was so scared that he trembled with a scared look and crawled over with his crown and braids for a long time.
"Empress Dowager, this is the case... Prince Qing Yili was dissatisfied and attacked Long Live and cut the emperor's braid with a paper cutter..."
Thanks to Zeng Guofan just suppressing the situation and unifying the caliber, otherwise this matter would be really difficult to smooth things over!
The Japanese Lion was stunned. He ran back for a short while and the group of people colluded with confessions. When he looked up at Zeng Guofan's coughing and panting, he understood everything.
"The Empress Dowager... This dog slave is lying!" Yi pointed at the senior Xi and scolded, "No matter how brave Yi Li is, he will never be able to bring a knife into the Forbidden City, nor will he assassinate the king and kill him!"
"Aren't he afraid of being killed in the whole family? On the other hand, the new Royal Army has all the rifles filled with bullets..."
Speaking of this, the Japanese Six suddenly had air conditioning on the back of their necks, so they didn't dare to say anything further. Zeng Guofan frowned and looked at him with disappointment in his eyes.
Oh...what happened to me today? I was guarding against Zai Chun to learn the trick of Emperor Kangxi. I have to leave the Forbidden City alive. What am I going to argue now?
Thinking of this, his tone became softer. "The Queen Mother, I have already made it clear. The defense of the Forbidden City Pass cannot be left to the Han people anyway!"
"This is my bottom line. If I don't even care about this family law of ancestors, then I can only quit this job... I will go to farm outside the pass!"
After saying that, the Japanese knelt in front of the two empress dowagers, took the top of their heads and put them on the ground and stopped talking.
As the matter came to this point, Cixi and Ci'an understood that the uncle and nephew had not seen each other for five years, and they had already become angry when they met on the first day!
The overall situation is the most important!
"Your Majesty, let the Ai family hear what you want?" Ci'an asked.
Emperor Tongzhi greeted his two mothers with a smile and said, "The boy has no big wishes. I have used to these new imperial guards. I hope they can serve them in close proximity!"
"Since the emperor said that the Han people would not enter the Forbidden City, it would be easier to deal with. There are also our bannermen in the new imperial army!"
"Select six hundred people to come, and in the future, they will be responsible for the defense of Donghuamen. A few broken houses are freed up from Jianting and Nansouth Institute, which is enough for them to live in!"
"I lit the bannerman to serve you in person. I think all the royal relatives will not stop you anymore, right?"
"In addition, I have to give them some errands to the rest of the Imperial Army, so I can't eat them in vain!"
"Let's propose Deshengmen and Andingmen. Letting the new Royal Army protect the emperor can also be regarded as removing some burden to Prince Chun, which is a little bit of my nephew's wish!"
Hiss... The Japanese Liu took a breath of air conditioning, "Good boy, his wrists are so cruel!"
