Tuqing: My first love was Cixi

Chapter 281 Shunchang is defeated! God helps me!
Empress Dowager Ci'an was actually very worried when Su Yi left the capital this time, because every time he left the capital before, these Eight Banners princes and ministers would come out to cause trouble.

Before, there was Yehenara who was in charge, but now she is alone.

During this period of time, she felt as if she was facing a formidable enemy.

As a result, there was only a slight start over there, and immediately died down as Bao Yun was dismissed from his post as Minister of the Interior.

The little queen mother also thinks, do you have some big conspiracy? What big move are you holding back?

Then, news of the great victory in the south came.

She was completely relieved, and people immediately spread the news throughout the capital.

And he ordered a wave of fireworks to be set off to celebrate the victory of the South.

Then, she couldn't wait to summon Su Yi's side friend Jin Zhenzhen.

However, the two of them were really close and awkward.

"Do you know about me and him?" Empress Dowager Ci'an couldn't help but ask.

I was really shocked. Queen Mother, are you so naive?

How do you survive until now? The political struggle in the palace is so fierce.

However, Zhenzhen is more innocent.

"I know, I know."

Then, the two of them were speechless.

"Your Majesty is studying mathematics, how is his understanding?" Ci'an asked.

Zhenzhen thought for a while and said: "It's average, but my enthusiasm for learning is not bad, I'm quite interested."

Ci'an said: "That's good, that's good."

Then, Ci'an added: "The south has won a great victory, so I want to test the minds of the princes and ministers in the capital. So three days later, I want to hold a dinner party for the female dependents of the second-rank and above officials in the capital to attend. You see How about it?"

Are you really shocked again?
Madam, this... are you asking me about something like this?
Then, Zhenzhen nodded and said, "I think it's okay."

One just asked, the other dared to answer.

Ci'an said: "Then as Su Yi's side Fujin, how about you also help me host the dinner that day?"

Zhenzhen nodded again and said, "Okay."

If it were any other Fujin, he would not dare to accept it.

There are a lot of people with higher seniority than you in the capital, including Prince Fujin, but you are still a side Fujin, how dare you take over?
But I really felt that if the Queen Mother asked me to help, I would definitely do it.

As for what Prince Gong Fujin and Prince Hui Fujin think, I can't control that.

Seeing Zhenzhen's temperament, Ci'an couldn't help feeling close to her. He held her hand and said, "Su Yi is so lucky. Each of the wives he has married is better than the last."

........................

Prince Hui finally chose poisonous wine.

After downing a glass of poisonous wine, I tried to pick it up several times, but I couldn't muster the courage to put it into my mouth.

Death is the hardest thing in history.

At this time, someone rushed in directly from outside.

It's Chongen.

He stepped forward directly, took the glass of poisonous wine, and threw it to the ground.

"Prince Hui, if you want to die, you will die by Ming Zhengdian's punishment."

"If you want to drink the poisonous wine, you have to wait for the Queen Mother of the Two Palaces to give you the poisonous wine before you drink it. You kill yourself here. What do you mean?"

"It is not a pity that you should die, but don't ruin the two empress dowagers, and don't ruin the reputation of the center of the imperial court."

Prince Hui Mianyu trembled: "I will die if I want to. Can you still stop me?"

Chongen said coldly: "If you drink poisonous wine and die, you will no longer blame Prince Yi for being ruthless. Your entire line is over, and your title as Prince Hui is gone. The rights of your sons are gone." The future is gone."

"You made a big mistake. You went to Zeng Guofan's so-called investment conference and encouraged the Hunan Army to rebel. The court will definitely punish you."

"You just wait to be implicated and to be punished by the court."

"Even if they are going to die, they will be beheaded in plain sight. Look at Duanhua and Sushun, they were beheaded, and their children were not implicated. If you commit suicide like this, you will put the blame on Prince Yi and the Queen Mother of the two palaces. Then don’t blame me for putting more charges on your head, so that you will never be able to stand up again for generations to come.”

Prince Hui Mianyu pointed at Chongen and roared: "You, have you gone too far to bully others and not even allow others to die?"

Chongen said: "Anyway, I have finished speaking. If you still want to die, then you can continue."

After saying that, Chongen turned and left directly.

..............................

Three days later.

Empress Dowager Ci'an held a banquet in the palace.

Officials of the second rank and above in the capital, as well as the female dependents of princes and ministers, were invited.

I originally thought that many people would not be present. After all, many banner ministers had not been in court for more than half a year. They had been claiming to be ill at home and expressed their resistance to Su Yi's flag affairs reform.

And this time, the Queen Mother’s banquet.

Basically all the female relatives were present.

Including the wives of American ministers, the wives of British ministers, and the wives of British counselors.

"Open!" followed an order.

Zenglu turned on the main switch, and suddenly the whole hall was brightly lit.

All the female relatives were shocked, it was so bright?
This...is this an electric light?
I had only heard that these things were available everywhere in Jiujiang, and also in Shanghai. I didn’t expect that they were now installed in the palace.

It has never been so bright at night.

The next banquet was also different from the previous one, with many dishes that were not available before.

Even, it’s not entirely Chinese food, there are also Western-style desserts.

Then, everyone discovered that the person helping the Queen Mother host the banquet was actually Su Yi's side Fujin.

Is this...isn't this inappropriate?

Prince Hui’s Fujin and Prince Gong’s Fujin are probably more suitable for this role.

But Zhenzhen didn't think anything of it, so he presided over it meticulously and relatively calmly.

Seng Gelinqin's Fujin helped with a smile.

Below, Prince Hui's Fujin laughed with him from beginning to end, and no dissatisfaction could be seen.

Does she dare to be dissatisfied?
At this time, Prince Hui Fujin was in extreme panic.

His husband, Mian Yu, might have committed suicide as soon as he gritted his teeth and stamped his feet.

But she still needs to live, and her children still need to live.

What should we do with this big family?

Therefore, she couldn't care less about putting on airs. She was thinking about how to find a way to go to Prince Yi's house to plead with Zhenzhen after the banquet.

As for the other distinguished Prince Gong Fujin, Prince Dun Fujin, and Prince Chun Fujin, although they had smiles on their faces, they still looked a little unnatural.

The three men in our family are the brothers of the late emperor and have the most noble status.

Queen Mother, when you hold a banquet, you don't ask us to join in the banquet, but you invite a prince's side friend?
Moreover, he is not the prince of Aixinjueluo.

After Zhenzhen left the palace, he actually asked his Amarilin if he should take this job.

Ruilin smiled and said, "You have such a husband, what else can you not dare to accept?"

Zhenzhen said: "Should I keep a low profile at this time? I read that this is what the history books say."

Ruilin said: "You can't believe everything in the book."

Zhenzhen said: "Huo Guang failed to take care of his wife, which was the reason why the Huo family was eventually wiped out."

Ruilin said: "Can Huo Guang and Su Yi be the same? They are different."

Mrs. Ruilin said next to her: "Who is Huo Guang? What did his wife do?"

Ruilin smiled and said: "I don't even know who Huo Guang is, and he is uneducated. His wife killed the queen, and then made her daughter the new queen."

Mrs. Ruilin said: "Then our family is really far away from harming the Queen. Go ahead and do it, what are you afraid of? Our family has been suffering for so many years, and finally we feel proud and don't have to be restrained. Besides, the Queen Mother and you are still the same. Where are the sisters?”

Master Ruilin said: "What are you talking nonsense about?"

Mrs. Ruilin sneered: "Everyone in the capital knows."

"That can't be nonsense."

..............................

The dinner in the palace was over, and these ladies left the palace and went home.

Women, sometimes they can’t hide things.

We started chatting on the way.

"I've really been holding it in too much. Whenever I get a chance, I just want to show off."

"There are so many princes in the capital who are directly related to Fujin, how can she get her turn?"

"Prince Hui Fujin, Prince Yi Fujin, even Monk Wang Fujin, Prince Gong, Prince Dun, Prince Chun, which family's Fujin is not ranked ahead of her?"

"Do you think this is true?"

As soon as these words came out.

Immediately, Monk King Fujin walked away.

Then, Prince Hui Fujin also stayed away from this lady.

Then, Prince Yi Fujin also stayed away.

At this special time, if you want to die, don't come to drag us with you.

Prince Yi Fujin instead walked to Tong Jiewu's wife Wu Yashi and said affectionately: "You are willing to come back from Jiujiang. I heard that place is very comfortable."

Wu Yashi said: "Isn't it? The house in Jiujiang is much more comfortable than the house in Beijing, and the scenery is much better. There are things from all over the world, and the price is cheaper than in Beijing. As for the clothes from the Royal Clothing Bureau, you You know, the latest models in Beijing are all out of season in Jiujiang.”

Then, she said angrily: "If I don't come back, my home will be stolen by that vixen."

Tong Jiewu was demoted because he slept with the wife of his old boss and benefactor, which caused a stir. In the end, the thunder was loud and the rain was small, and the other party really reconciled and took her as a concubine.

His wife, Wu Yashi, could no longer stay in Jiujiang and hurried back to Beijing.

Prince Yi Fujin said: "Look at it, these gentlemen all have the same virtues, from teenagers to decades old, without exception. And this time your gentleman was demoted to the fourth grade, but your second grade is not good. Don’t move. Even at the banquet, you ranked higher than a group of first-grade emperors.”

Wu Yashi said proudly: "That all depends on our prince. My aunt is also half a mother."

Next to him, Prince Yi Fujin boasted: "That's right."

From the beginning to the end, Monk Wang Fujin was very reserved.

Now that the Monk King is as stable as Mount Tai, she, Fu Jin, is also aloof in the capital, and does not have to be humble and petty like other princes and princes.

........................

After Zhenzhen returned to the palace, it was almost eleven o'clock.

But today's business still needs to be completed.

Because a lot of things were finally brought together to her side.

While he was busy, the maid came to report: "Fu Jin, Prince Hui Fujin is here."

Zhenzhen was stunned and said, "I'll go greet you."

In the flower hall, Prince Hui Fujin sat and waited dignifiedly.

My heart was also full of surprise.

It is the etiquette of gentlemen to receive guests in the flower hall. Shouldn't women receive guests in the inner courtyard?

Are you really the one who entertains me in the flower hall as Xi Fujin?

But after everyone retreated, Prince Hui Fujin knelt down and cried: "Zhenzhen, please save our family, please save our family."

"Our prince is really confused for a moment."

"Looking at the previous friendship between our two families, please save our family."

When Prince Hui Fujin had a birthday party, Zhenzhen and her mother couldn't even serve as the head table.

Zhenzhen hurriedly helped Prince Hui Fujin up and said, "I can't be my husband's master. You are the elder. It would be rude for me not to see you."

"But you have to believe that our husband will do whatever he wants."

"It is impossible to practice favoritism, but it is also impossible to kill innocent people indiscriminately."

....................................

Spring River Plumbing Duck Prophet.

Next, I don’t know how many female relatives came to the door, asking to see Zhenzhen.

Either to win friendship or to pick up the pieces.

So, no one really disappeared.

It's not like Prince Hui, who closed the door tightly if he didn't understand, but the door remained open.

If you want to wait outside, then wait.

Anyway, I just don’t see you. No matter how senior you are, I won’t see you. Don’t use these things to pressure me.

Su Yi's aunt Wu Ya's family was full of people, and she was extremely happy. She had never been so prosperous in her life. Those high-ranking wives tried their best to please her, and each one gave her more generous gifts.

As a result, when Tong Jiewu came back, he scolded her severely.

"You are so blinded by phlegm. What do you want the money for? What do you want the gifts for?"

"Does our family want money now?"

"Don't cause trouble for me, and don't cause trouble for the prince."

"If you do this again, I will drive you back to Jiujiang."

Wu Yashi burst into tears after being scolded. The next day, she went to the palace to see her niece, Princess Lian, and complained fiercely.

As a result, Concubine Lian gave her another harsh speech.

"Uncle is right, what do you want the money for, what do you want the gifts for?"

"People are finding fault with my uncle now, and you are still causing trouble. I think you should go back to Jiujiang as soon as possible."

Wu Yashi said: "Mother, you are my niece, we are the same family, can you help him speak?"

Bingbing said in her heart, you and I are the same family.

But... Your Majesty and I are truly a family. If you, a confused woman, want to ruin His Majesty's plan, I won't spare you.

Immediately, Concubine Lian said coldly: "I am speaking on national matters, okay, you can go back."

........................

The second elder brother is six years old this year and has already started studying.

Really much smarter.

Wo Ren was not only the teacher of the little emperor, but also the teacher of the second elder brother, and he even felt the gap between the two.

Although the second elder brother is three years younger, he learns really fast.

Moreover, full of curiosity and desire to explore.

Still brave.

Ask questions at every turn.

On the contrary, the little emperor became very excited as soon as he came to class.

Especially when learning arithmetic from Zhenzhen, this kind of intelligence is even more vivid.

"Second brother, do you like Master Zhenzhen?" Bingbing asked.

"I like it." The second elder brother said, "Master Zhenzhen also likes me and hugs me every day."

Bingbing was stunned.

This...isn't this something obvious?

Bingbing couldn't help but hug her second elder brother and looked at his handsome and energetic little face.

Maybe it’s just preconceptions, but the more I look at them, the more they look like each other.

If you want to find a way to leave the palace, it's best to go directly to Jiujiang.

The second elder brother’s brothers and sisters are all in Jiujiang. It would be great to grow up together.

However, maybe Su Yi has another mission for the second elder brother.

........................

Instead of waiting for Su Yi to return to Beijing, he waited for the Queen Mother of the West to return to Beijing.

After worshiping the Buddha, return to the palace.

The young emperor took the civil and military officials to welcome Yehenala into the palace.

After returning to the palace, Yehenala immediately heard countless rumors.

Among them, there is the scandal between Su Yi and the Empress Dowager Ci'an.

This... this isn't even a scandal anymore.

She was suddenly shocked.

So unabashed?

Damn it, Su Yi, what have you done?
I haven't had enough sleep? Are you going to provoke the guy to the east?

Could it be that you used some forceful means?
She knew best about the one on the east side, who was simple and indifferent, and almost completely uninterested in that aspect of things.

But even so, she remained silent, as if she didn't know anything.

And he also ordered everyone in Changchun Palace to be beaten to death if he mentioned even half a word.

Because in her opinion, this scandal is very fatal and will shake the legitimacy of the Queen Mother's power.

This is why she tried so hard to hide her affair with Su Yi.

So I think the one in the east is also extremely disgusted with such scandals, but she is soft-hearted and can't control the mouths of people in the palace.

Since you can't control it, let me control it.

Now that we have returned to the palace, we sisters still have to work together.

Yehenala returned to the palace and immediately felt a familiar sense of security.

However, this cramped palace is really uncomfortable to live in.

"Mother, the proprietor is here." Andehai said.

Yehenala was stunned, the other party was the Queen Mother, I should go and pay a visit.

She planned to rest for half an hour before going to visit again, but Ci'an couldn't wait to come over.

When he saw Ci'an again, Yehenala couldn't help being shocked.

Actually... so radiant?

Aren't you suffering from a serious illness? Why don't you get older, but become several years younger?

Moreover, your makeup was light and elegant before, but now...is it a little too glamorous?

The whole person is a little plumper.

When the late emperor was on the throne, and when you were the empress, you couldn't outshine all other beauties, but now you do it?

Just... with your current beauty, you can compete with the second elder brother's biological mother.

"Get out." Empress Dowager Ci'an said to Ande Hai.

"Hey..." Andehai retreated. For some reason, he felt that this scene was familiar. Then, Empress Dowager Ci'an said: "There is something I want to tell you."

Yehenala said: "Sister, please speak."

Empress Dowager Ci'an said: "There is a lot of news in the capital now. You must have heard about it, right?"

Yehenala said: "What? I haven't heard about it."

Empress Dowager Ci'an said: "It's about me and him."

Yehenala said: "Sister, don't worry, these slaves can't do anything without discipline. I will discipline them well and kill this trend."

Empress Dowager Ci'an was a little embarrassed and said: "This, this is not a rumor."

For a moment, Yehenala was completely stunned.

This...is this something that can be admitted?

Haven't you seen that I haven't admitted this publicly in front of you until now?
This is the handle.

Empress Dowager Ci'an said: "I'm here to talk to you. In the future, I...I may also go to worship Buddha for about half a year, and the affairs in the palace may be left to you."

........................

Empress Dowager Ci'an left.

Yehenala couldn't tell whether she was surprised, happy, or angry.

In short, it is a mixture of five flavors.

But I also feel a little bit more contempt for Ci'an in my heart. He is too simple-minded. You can't wait to talk to me?
However, facing Ci'an like this, she felt much more at ease.

At this moment, An Dehai came in and reported: "The Queen Mother, Prince Hui Fujin has come to ask for an audience."

"Let her in."

After a while, Prince Hui Fujin came in, kowtowed desperately and said: "Empress, please save our family."

Yehenala said: "What are you talking about? Ande Hai, why don't you help old Fujin up?"

"Old Fujin, according to seniority, I should call you aunt, why do you do this?"

Prince Hui Fujin said: "Your Majesty, our prince is old and confused and has made a big mistake. Now he knows he made a mistake. Please have mercy, Master."

Yehenala said: "Your Prince Hui is an old fool. Others don't jump out, but he jumped out and went to interfere with Zeng Guofan's affairs."

Prince Hui Fujin said: "Who says it's not the case? But please forgive him for the sake of his old age and confusion."

Yehenala said: "Are you frightened by the fate of Duanhua, Sushun and others?"

Prince Hui Fujin said: "Yes."

Yehenala said: "Don't worry about this. The current situation is not that serious. And Prince Hui is not that serious either. Besides, even Zeng Guofan just committed suicide, and Peng Yulin and others were just demoted. "Prince Hui is the elder of our clan, how can he be punished?"

Prince Hui Fujin said: "My master is really kind-hearted. I thank you for your kindness."

Yehenala said: "I will definitely be exempted from all the errands, and I will definitely be demoted, but at least the princes and princes of your family can be kept. Choose an outstanding son to take the title. "

Actually, she shouldn't have said that.

How could it be revealed so quickly?
However, she had been away from power for too long, almost a year, so she couldn't wait to feel the taste of power again.

That feeling of controlling other people's destiny is great.

Prince Hui Fujin was astonished, and then said with great joy: "Thank you so much, Your Majesty, thank you so much, Your Majesty."

In my heart, I complained about Zhenzhen even more.

You are just a side Fujin, just a little junior. I didn't even have eyes for you before. I ran to you and knelt down to beg for mercy, but you still said those words without showing any mercy.

Now that I have found the Queen Mother, everything will be fine.

For Prince Hui Fujin, he did not dare to hope that he could keep the title of king. He only hoped to save Mian Yu's life and not delay the future of his sons.

As a result, the Queen Mother of the West opened her mouth and all the princes in the family were saved.

………………

The capital city cannot keep secrets.

Soon the news came out that with the grace of the Queen Mother of the West, Prince Hui passed the test.

Not only did he save his life, but the king's family was also saved.

Suddenly, Chongen was furious, Tian Yugong was furious, and Ruilin was also furious.

"What kind of?"

"what is this?"

"The situation now is certainly not as urgent as before, so there is no need to go on a killing spree."

"However, putting it down gently like this will damage the majesty of the prince."

"Mianyu has made so many mistakes, and his family still retains the title of king? Where will the dignity of the center be from now on?"

"Luo Bingzhang, Peng Yulin and others saved their lives because they surrendered. They gave Wuchang City and Chongqing."

"Zeng Guofan committed suicide, and took away all Zeng Guoquan, Li Xubin, and nearly 100,000 Hunan Army die-hards, which reduced us huge troubles, and in exchange for the safety of Peng Yulin and others."

"Why should he be Mianyu? He should be punished openly by the court to prove the majesty of the law."

Now that's not all, there are also faint rumors in the capital that Su Yi is behaving badly in Fujin Zhenzhen, regardless of superiority or inferiority.

At the dinner held by the Queen Mother and the Queen Mother, you, a prince's side brother, actually stepped forward to host it.

Moreover, he was arrogant and unreasonable towards Prince Hui and Fujin.

Prince Su Yi is not Huo Guang. Can't you, Xiang Fujin, just be arrogant and domineering?
Chongen thought for a while and said: "This head can't be raised."

"Fu Jin, please go to the palace and see your mother, the Empress Dowager, to suppress this possibility."

Tian Yugong said in a cold voice: "This Mianyu could have survived originally, but if his Fujin behaves like a monster, he must die."

Chongen sneered: "This group of people really can't give you any good looks."

Ruilin said: "Yes, at this moment, we must not be careless and complacent. What we want to do is reform the great cause. If we don't advance, we will retreat."

Tian Yugong said: "Fu Jin, there are some things that are more convenient for you to say. It would be better for Lord Tong Jiewu's wife to be sent back to Jiujiang."

Zhenzhen said: "Okay, I will enter the palace right now."

"No, I'd better go." Chongen said, "I'll go and ask to see my mother, the Empress Dowager."

Zhenzhen said: "Uncle, it is more convenient for me to go see the Queen Mother."

Chongen said: "I'll go and be more upright."

Chongen had a heart full of fists. He didn't want the Yehenala family to hold a grudge, nor did he want to leave the impression that Su Yi's female family members were involved in politics.

........................

Inside Zhongcui Palace.

Chongen said bluntly: "Empress Dowager, there are rumors in the capital now that the Queen Mother of the West has granted grace and Prince Hui and his family have retained the title of king. This is not possible. It will damage the majesty of the Queen Mother of the two palaces and the central authority of the imperial court. , It damages the dignity of King Yi."

Empress Dowager Ci'an frowned.

She was both happy and unhappy about Yehenala's return to the palace.

She was happy because she finally no longer had to worry about these annoying political affairs and could leave all the courage to her.

The reason for the unhappiness was that after the Queen Mother returned to the palace, Ci'an would not be so comfortable with Su Yi if she wanted to stay together.

Unexpectedly, she couldn't wait to seize power as soon as she came back.

"Last time, Sushun, Duanhua and others were brutally executed." Chongen said: "That's because of the great cause of reform. If you don't advance, you will retreat. Only by clear and canonical punishment can we shock people and show our attitude. Now the situation is very good, naturally. You can be more tolerant. So even if Prince Hui makes a big mistake, he can still avoid death. He just needs to be exempted from his errands and all his titles. But... after such a hassle, he will die again. "

"Otherwise, the banner people will feel that the prince is weak and can be bullied, and they will bargain again on reforming the flag affairs."

Empress Dowager Ci'an said: "I know this, but will it make people think that Su Yi and the one on the west side have rifts and conflicts and are being taken advantage of?"

Chongen thought for a while and said: "Empress Dowager, can I tell you frankly?"

Empress Dowager Ci'an said: "Of course, Uncle Chong'en."

Chongen said: "This moment, that moment. In the future, the power of the imperial court will gradually return to the center. To be precise, it will be the center headed by King Yijun. Therefore, the less interference there is, the better. Some signs are better to be raised as soon as possible. Let it go out. It is a good thing if there is such a sign now, but it will be a big trouble when the differences become bigger in the future.”

Ci'an suddenly woke up.

After Yehenala came back, Ci'an was determined to let go of everything, stay together with Su Yi, and even live in a private house in the name of worshiping the Buddha.

The result is that it doesn't work.

Ci'an said: "I understand."

Chongen said: "Thank you, Queen Mother, for your grace."

After he left.

Empress Dowager Ci'an immediately asked Zenglu to go to Changchun Palace and invite the Empress Dowager of the West to come over.

"Sister, Prince Hui made a big mistake this time." Empress Dowager Ci'an said, "I think he should be severely punished, what do you think?"

After hearing Ci'an's words, Yehenala's expression changed.

I have just returned to the palace and just announced my plan to deal with Mianyu.

As a result, you just gave me a no?
Then where does the majesty of me, the Queen Mother of the West, lie?

I don't care about Mianyu's fate, but I care about my face.

After a while, Yehenala said: "How do you think it should be dealt with, sister?"

Empress Dowager Ci'an said: "Give me death and lose my title!"

Yehenara's face changed drastically and he said: "Why do you do this? Why do you do this?"

Empress Dowager Ci'an said: "Sister, after Mianyu Fujin entered the palace, you should not agree so quickly and discuss it with me first. What is being spread outside now? It is said that Su Yi's side Fujin Zhenzhen has misbehaved. Respect and inferiority. Who spread the news? Isn't it Prince Hui's Fujin? This kind of people like to make trouble. Once there is a gap, they will try their best to widen it. My lesson at that time is still vivid. "

At that time, Empress Dowager Ci'an was only hesitant about reforming the Eight Banners' military affairs. She was immediately seized by this group of people and was pushed to the opposite side of Su Yi's reforms, becoming the other's protective umbrella.

"So, this sign cannot arise." Empress Dowager Ci'an said.

Yehenala said: "But, what I said has already been said. Otherwise, just do what I said this time, and we will make decisions after discussing it in the future?"

Empress Dowager Ci'an said: "I plan to gradually let go of government affairs and hand them over to the Political Affairs Hall."

Yehenala said: "Sister, let me think carefully about Mianyu, okay?"

Then the Empress Dowager left.

The two of them broke up on bad terms.

........................

Even if the Queen Mother of the two palaces dealt with it calmly and covered it up.

However, the differences between the two people still came out.

And, fermentation started.

The Queen Mother of the West wants to protect Mian Yu's life and the king's title.

The Queen Mother Dong was determined to execute Mian Yu.

For a time, public opinion in the capital was abuzz.

The prince of the Eight Banners was once again angered and verbally criticized Empress Dowager Ci'an behind her back.

Are you still the Queen Mother?

Are you still Niu Hulu?

Are you still a member of the Eight Banners family?

Prince Hui Mianyu didn't do anything treacherous or unethical? The Queen Mother of the West can tolerate it, but you, the Queen Mother of the East, want to kill him?
This is the emperor's great-uncle, and this is the elder of the clan.

Cixi had no intention of causing any discord with Ci'an, she just had been away from power for too long and couldn't wait to enjoy the beauty of power.

As a result, it is now in full swing.

Mianyu's fate also became a reason for countless bannermen to vent their dissatisfaction.

It has also become a symbol.

It was at this time that military information from the north came again.

Seng Grinch's report came to the palace.

The Russian army divided its forces and headed south, targeting the capital.

Suddenly, the entire capital fell into panic again.

The memories of four years ago came to mind again.

Are foreigners going to invade the capital?

At that time, there were only 8,000 foreigners who conquered the capital, not to mention that there may be tens of thousands of foreigners now?

Moreover, is this a division of troops?

Maybe the Heilongjiang defense line has collapsed and the Northern Expeditionary Army has been defeated, so the Russian army will attack the capital.

This terrible news suppressed everything in an instant.

Countless people were panicking and preparing to escape again.

Many people are even still thinking, if the Russian army enters the capital this time, where will the emperor and the queen mother escape?
Chengde is definitely not going to work, the northwest is also at war, and Xi'an is definitely not going to work either.

Is it possible to flee to the south?

........................

It's not that Seng Gelinqin's report was too slow, it was already six hundred miles faster.

In fact, it took a long time for the Russians to decide to divide their forces and then officially divide their forces and move south.

The Russian army's base camp is more than three thousand miles away from the capital in a straight line, and the entire route is basically more than four to five thousand miles.

Without any of its own cities, an army of 30,000 people marched four to five thousand miles to attack the capital.

No matter how you think about it, it seems impossible.

Therefore, it is almost impossible to travel by land. It will take several months to travel these four to five thousand miles.

In the end, the Russian army decided to risk taking the sea route.

After the defeat of the remaining Russian navy, they have returned to their base camp. And they concluded that Su Yi's navy was fighting the Hunan Army in the south at this time and would definitely not go north.

Therefore, the Russians planned to take risks.

Use the fastest speed to transport the army to Dalian Bay by sea, forcibly occupy Lushunkou by force, build a defense base, and then go north to capture Shengjing.

Next, the large force landed in Yongping Mansion and entered the capital from this direction.

The reason why they did not attack Tianjin was because they wanted to avoid the Dagukou Fort.

But there is also a problem with this plan, that is, there are not enough ships to transport 30,000 troops at one time, and can only transport more than 10,000 people at most.

Therefore, we first transported more than 10,000 people, occupied Dalian Bay, and occupied Shengjing.

So, the Russian army began its own plan.

Because they did not divide their troops on a large scale and go south by land, Senggelinqin was not discovered at first.

The Russian army was very thieves and boarded the ship at night.

But Su Yi's army has airships here. After inspection after inspection, it was found that the Russian army was missing more than 10,000 people.

And the most critical moment was that many Russian ships parked in Heilongjiang disappeared.

Therefore, they judged that the Russian army should divide its forces and go south.

Then, Seng Gelinqin immediately traveled 600 miles to convey this information to the capital.

............................................................

Tianjin!

Su Yi's information, information on the northern battlefield, came into his hands in a steady stream.

After reading it, there were only two words in his mind: Damn it!
Is there such a good thing?
He really didn't expect that the battle situation would develop to this point. The result he wanted was much better.

To be honest, he was worried.

With more than 60,000 Russian troops and a solid defense line, it is really difficult to defeat them.

After Su Yi's 40,000-strong army marched north and joined the Northern Expeditionary Army, there would be more than 90,000 people.

More than 90,000, hit more than 60,000
The pressure is still great, this is the army of a major power.

Su Yi was ready for a protracted war, ready to continuously increase his troops and use his superior strength and geographical advantages to defeat the Russian army.

He really didn't think about a quick victory or a big victory or anything like that.

In the plan of the General Staff, tens of thousands of casualties were even planned. After all, the outcome of the Crimean War was decided.

result?

The Russian army actually divided its forces?
And he still traveled thousands of miles?
Who gave you the courage?
You, do you despise me so much? Will this create favorable conditions for me?
Another piece of information came.

"The first batch of Russian troops officially landed in Dalian Bay, about 10,000 people."

There was a choice before Su Yi.

"Your Majesty, the Russian fleet is withdrawing from Dalian Bay. Should our navy go to intercept it at this time?"

Yes, do you want to volley?
However, Su Yi wanted to achieve greater results.

That is to send the Russian fleet back to the base camp at Hailanpao, and then carry 10,000 troops southward.

At that time, Su Yi's main naval force went to intercept and kill them.

In this way, not only can the Russian navy be eliminated, but the 10,000 army troops can also be completely buried in the sea.

At the same time, 40,000 elite army troops went north to encircle and annihilate more than 10,000 Russian troops who landed in Dalian Bay.

If all this goes well, the 20,000 Russian army will be destroyed.

However, now that the news of the great victory in the south has reached the capital, the Russian minister must have known about it, and he will definitely send an envoy to tell the headquarters.

It depends on whether the Russian fleet returns faster or the Russian minister's envoy is faster.

In this way, Su Yi finally decided to let the Russian fleet leave the Bohai Sea and Yellow Sea and return them to their base camp.

Not long after the Russian fleet left the Yellow Sea, Su Yi's large-scale fleet headed north towards Dalian Bay.

The target of his more than 40,000 troops was not Dalian Bay, but the direction of Shengjing.

Because after the Russian army of more than 10,000 people landed in Dalian Bay, after resting and recuperating here and building a defense line, they would definitely go north to attack Shengjing directly.

Shengjing has food, supplies, and a high political status.

The Russians will definitely not let it go.

Su Yi's army went to Shengjing in advance, so that they could wait for work and fight the most enjoyable war.

In this battle, Su Yi really didn't want to use any cunning tactics. He just wanted to fight a conventional war, even if it cost huge casualties.

I didn't expect the Russians to have such a good time.

In this way, you, the Russians, will not be able to do anything good without any tricks.

The key is that Su Yi has an airship in the sky, which can monitor every move of the Russian army and is unilaterally transparent.

In this way, who knows what kind of victory can be achieved.

A few days later!

The main force of Su Yi's navy headed north to the mouth of the Heilongjiang River, where they planned to rob and kill.

After 40,000 troops landed, they began a forced march.

Running wildly in the direction of Shengjing.
