Tempting a child is really a crime. Anyway, Xiao Letian feels that he is now in a match with human traffickers. Who can resist this temptation for a ten-year-old child?

Skiing on the mountains, snorkels in the Pacific, walking on the beach in Hawaii, going to hot springs in Hokkaido, Japan... Walking deep into the desert to explore the remains of civilization, and going to foreign lands to taste unimaginable customs.

In Xiao Letian's mouth, the wonderful things on the earth unfolded in front of Emperor Tongzhi like long scrolls. The little emperor was addicted to just listening to these things.

"My dear, can you take me out for a look? I dreamt of leaving this palace, and I want to see the vast world outside."

Xiao Letian turned his head and looked at the ministers behind him, and whispered, "Your Majesty, this is not an easy thing. If you want to travel thousands of miles, you may encounter unprecedented resistance... Everything needs to be discussed for a long time."

Emperor Tongzhi suddenly reached out and grabbed Xiao Letian's hand, and his eyes shining brightly, "Can I believe you? In my mother's mouth, you are the most evil person in the world, but in the queen mother's mouth, you are another role model to learn from. Tell me if you are a traitor."

Xiao Letian didn't come to the two empress dowagers' evaluation of herself, but there was such a big difference. Ci'an was really not easy to have such a mind and do not let me down for him.

"Your Majesty, the road is full of horsepower and the power is seen from time to time. Many things are not based on words but on doing. Let's analyze this time, let's analyze the Wei-Mr. I will not analyze the question of the starting point of the Queen Mother Cixi. Just analyze the process of this palace transformation, and you will already find clues..."

"Zeng Guofan, Zheng Dashen had already made a note asking the court to allow local governments to invest in the construction of telegram lines. If the Qing Dynasty had such a telegram line running through the north and south, would you be deceived by rumors?"

"The French said that I was dead, I was dead. You really believe it. After the great victory, I took the strong soldiers back to Asia and all the news has arrived in Guangzhou. You Beijing City still don't know anything. You were foolish in sending troops to Tanggu to attack me. How stupid is this."

"There are also the battles of the Eight Banners soldiers. It's already an era. I have suffered several losses on foreigners. Why haven't I changed? Are you addicted to big swords, spears, horses and bows? You are still ambushing me in the heavy rain. You can really think about it. What era is this? Firearms are no longer afraid of water. Have you watched too many dramas?"

"Why do you think I am really willing to come to Beijing City? Isn't it good for me to make a fortune in Tanggu and Ryukyu? I have to fight to the death with the court. You have invited me in. Without these stupid people in the court, I can lead troops to Beijing on the day."

Xiao Letian patted Emperor Tongzhi on the shoulder, "Think about it carefully, Your Majesty, only fools think that being an emperor is a good person. Look at these four heavens and look at the palace walls like cages. Anyway, the empress will not live here. What's the difference between this and a prison? I'll want it if I live in a prison for a lifetime."

After saying that, Xiao Letian stood up and patted his butt, "Weichen will still live in Beijing for a while. If you have any ideas, let Ermao pass on a message to me. During this period, our new army will do the defense of the Forbidden City... We must seize this opportunity."

After the show of power, Xiao Letian was too lazy to greet the Queen Mother and left the Forbidden City with his soldiers. However, the new army did not go far. They set up two camps around the Qing Gate, and threatened the Forbidden City by attacking from north to south.

In the evening of that day, the new army began to restorate the people in the capital. Notices were posted at the city gates and intersections, and teams of new army began to suppress the rioters, and those who took advantage of the situation were killed without mercy.

"Prime Minister Xiao from the East China Sea came to Beijing to protect the emperor's orders. The people of the capital do not need to panic. The new army is here to calm the people... Please restore order."

The new army divided into countless teams and walked through the capital. The soldiers of the nine gate admirals and the yamen runners of Shuntian Mansion followed timidly behind them. Often, the new army shot and killed several robbers. The group of people then collected the bodies, and they were so tired that they didn't dare to complain like their third grandson.

"Stop... If you don't stop, shoot, I will rely on this guy to not only rob, but also kill people, kill him..." The officer gave the order, and a fire from the opposite side nailed the thug to death on the wall.

For a whole night, gunfires never stopped in Sijiu City. Countless people were waiting for the tragedy of the riots rushing to the door in horror. Many families were even ready to commit suicide. As long as the new army rushed into the house, they would light the fire and burn the house.

But throughout the night, no soldier walked into the people's houses without receiving the invitation. On the contrary, the thugs on the street killed everyone.

The Forbidden City spent this sleepless night in the sound of gunfire. Cixi and Tongzhi and her son hugged each other and cried bitterly. This time Cixi really regretted it.

"Child, don't scare your mother. Then Xiao Letian is a dog thief who digs out the foundation of our Qing Dynasty. How can you listen to him? How dangerous it is outside. You are the king of a country. The son of a thousand gold cannot sit in the hall. If something happens, the Qing Dynasty will be over..."

"The country cannot be without a king for a day. Don't scare your mother. If we don't go to the territory of foreign devils, be obedient."

Emperor Tongzhi seemed to have entered the rebellious period early, and he was unmoved by his mother's words. "My mother, I don't want to be a waste emperor who is kept in the hands of women in the deep palace. Why not eat meat? I have made up my mind."

Cixi slapped him hard with a loud bang, "Don't you want your mother to die? Why don't you appreciate it? Who am I doing this for, not for you..."

Emperor Tongzhi knelt down on the ground, and said with tears in his eyes, "Mom, the Qing Dynasty cannot continue like this. Xiao Letian can only attack the capital with only two thousand people. In the future, foreign devils will become stronger. What should we do?"

"You can stop me from leaving the palace, everything will follow your arrangements, and you can even let the entire empire move forward according to the traditional path, but can you stop others from making progress? Can you stop the power of the West from a thousand miles a day?"

"Mom, we can't close the door and live..."

There was another slap with a slap, "You know, the people's hearts will float as soon as the country is opened. At that time, we Manchus will be even more ruined. We cannot let the Han people gain insight, and we cannot let them see the sky outside. Only by closing their eyes and hearts can we Manchus rule. You don't know anything."

Tongzhi covered his hot face, "I don't understand, you don't understand. The Han people will sooner or later have a day of eyes open. How long can you hold on? If we do not keep up with the times, we may not even be able to keep the place outside the pass."

"You rebellious son, why do you believe in Xiao Letian's nonsense? You should kneel here and never get up."

The conflict between mother and son in the Yangxin Palace showed no sign of a stop. In the north of the Forbidden City, in the Qiwang Tower on the top of Jingshan, Ci'an finally got his wish. She did not return to the Forbidden City to live, and she finally turned Jingshan into her own exclusive garden.

As the lights and candles swayed, the two figures were entangled together, and while breathing, a stream of spring was rippling in the palace. There was no servant in Qiwang Tower, and outside the hall was guarding Ci'an's most loyal eunuchs and guards.

"Good man, God, you are such a good man..." Ci'an was drunk, and she even felt that her body was about to crack.

While breathing, Fuqing's low voice was "Niuhulu, my good baby, how did you survive these years? It's really hard for you...ah."

Fuqing and Ci'an, the two men and women who developed feelings for the palace change, became intimate because of this war. Until Xiao Letian led his troops into the city and all the Manchu nobles were in chaos, they finally got thunder and earthly fire and secretly rolled together on Jingshan.

To be honest, this kind of thing is not unusual at all. People are shouting ethics. In fact, those rules are made for the Han people, and they themselves are not interested in following those ethics rules.

The dirty Tang Dynasty, the smelly man, and the clear nose were nicknames given to him by Manren in Sijiu City. No Manchu emperor in all dynasties was not lustful, and Manchu nobles had affair with each other.

After all, Ci'an is just a 29-year-old woman, and it is the best moment in her life. Fuqing has lived alone for many years in her thirties, so it would be strange if they don't get into trouble.

After a while, the two hugged each other and spoke by the pillow.

"In the evening, Ermao sent a letter and said that His Majesty wanted to go on a study tour with Xiao Letian and travel around the world. Tell me what your brother sold and what he wanted to do." Ci'an asked.

The third master thought for a while and said, "My brother really can't see through. He has no good feelings for the court, but I always feel that he hates those Confucian scholars more. In the morning at the Qing Dynasty, Xiao Letian made a lot of trouble for Weng Tonghe. He was not even afraid of being enemies with Confucian scholars all over the world."

"It seems that Xiao Letian has no ambition to conquer the world. How could he offend the emperor who is all civil servants in the world? I have a feeling that he seems to be fighting against all kinds of wrongdoers."

"It is wrong for the Qing Dynasty to not engage in Western affairs. He wants to fight. It is wrong for the corrupt scholars to resist Western learning. It is wrong for him to fight. It is wrong for the court to close the country and ignore the sea. He wants to fight even more..."

Ci'an sat up all of a sudden when he heard this, and the thin silk quilt slid from his upper body and revealed a smooth and white "I understand. He wants to be a saint in the world, but he still really wants to be the first person in Western learning. What he wants is that his reputation has lasted for thousands of years. No matter how the dynasties change, no one says he is wrong, and he must worship him right?"

"What a big ambition, what a big ambition... Hey, why do you think of me like this?" At this time, Ci'an realized that his upper body had been completely exposed to the air, and the red candle swaying graceful figure had already made the third master stunned.

"You..." Ci'an blushed, and Fuqing was once again awesome. He rushed forward with a tiger, and the palace was filled with spring.

On the summer night after the bloody battle, I don’t know what people feel, how many are happy or sad.
