late Qing Dynasty arrest

Chapter 231 Jingguan is the background for taking photos

But it's just the wind blowing at the bottom of the peach blossom fan, people's faces reflect the red flowers, two spring hearts should understand themselves, pity the fragrance and cherish the jade, turn the phoenix upside down, and people are in the Dengcao alley.

Li Guolou tossed and tossed until late at night, and then fell asleep hugging each other, screaming in his dreams, "Mike!" Li Guolou was young and strong, sleepy all night, woke up early in the morning, and the family was eating breakfast.

Xie Ma walked into the restaurant, her face was flushed, she waved to Li Guolou, she was hesitating to speak, she was over excited.

Li Guolou took off the napkin around his neck, stood up and approached Mama Xie, and asked, "Mama Xie, what's the matter? You look sneaky."

"Zhang Zhongtang was victorious, the main force of the Nian army on the East Road was wiped out, Jingguan was piled up in the south of the city, and Lai Wenguang's head was hung at the Meridian Gate!" Xie Ma was afraid that it would be bad for the master to eat, but her voice was very loud. It was so loud that everyone present could hear it.

"Ah;;;;;;" Everyone stood up excitedly when they heard this, and clapped their hands to celebrate. The last group of rebels in the Qing Empire was wiped out. What a celebration.

In the inner house, the sound of firecrackers on the street outside was still heard. Just now, I thought that a wealthy family married a daughter, and it turned out that the whole world celebrated the victory of the Huai army led by Li Hongzhang.

"Uncle is amazing!" Li Guolou burst into tears of excitement, wiped his wet eyes, and twitched when he moved.

It's good that Li Hongzhang wins. In the future, he can use his family uncle's name to do business smoothly in the capital, and everyone will give him three points.Originally, Zeng Guofan was the commander-in-chief who commanded the extermination of the Nian army on the East Road, but the Qing army was defeated by the Nian army. Even the favorite general of the Empress Dowager Cixi, Zeng Gelinqin, the Mongolian iron hat king, was beheaded by the Nian army.The enraged Empress Dowager Cixi then deprived Zeng Guofan of his military power, and let Zeng Guofan's disciple Li Hongzhang take command to wipe out Dongnien.

"Horse!" Li Guolou sighed involuntarily. The reason why the Nian Army is so difficult to destroy is because the Nian Army's tactics are flexible, rushing from east to west, wandering among the vast mountains and rivers in the north.Unlike the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, where all tactics revolved around Tianjing (Nanjing), the heavenly king Hong Xiuquan refused to move his butt even to death.Trees are piled upon dead people are alive, and the most reasonable saying is that you should swim when you are fighting.

Li Guolou walked around excitedly, raised his eyebrows, and said, "Who will go to the Meridian Gate with me?"

The grandmas who were applauding just now immediately fell silent, and none of them wanted to see the head.Chu Xiangyu looked forward and backward, but still raised her hand and said, "Me! Brother Xiaolou, I will accompany you to see Jingguan."

"Yo;;;;;;" The grandmas seemed to see strange people, they stayed away from Chu Xiangyu, and ignored Li Guolou's request for a visit.

"Mike, don't forget about the dinner tonight." Zhen Yuhuan didn't stand up from the beginning to the end, she was still drinking porridge with a big appetite, and blinked furtively at Li Guolou, everyone knew the meaning.

"Oh! You don't want to pull it down, Xiao Xiangyu and I will play for a long time."

Li Guolou's words of seduction did not stir up any ripples, people who should drink milk still drink milk, even Mayuko is used to drinking milk now.The grandmothers would entertain themselves during the day, and they would play together with the "Mike Support Group". They have played in places in the capital that are not open to the public, and they have more places in the capital than Li Guolou.They are only interested in playing with Li Guolou in the mansion.

Chen Xiangfang was a little dissatisfied, and said, "Xiaolou, the Ministry of Criminal Justice doesn't have a custom of taking a rest on Sunday. Why are you talking to yourself and not going to work?"

"I'm a ninth-rank official now, and I should be the captain. If Mr. Bao doesn't promote me, I won't be doing my job properly." Li Guolou was dissatisfied with his rank and no official position. He was a little narrow-minded and didn't work hard.

Zhen Yuhuan said: "Grandma, whatever you want, Mike, today the Ministry of Criminal Justice will not care about them. The soldiers maintain law and order, and no one dares to commit crimes on the street. Right?"

"Hmmm;;;;;; makes sense." Li Guolou had nothing to worry about, and drank the first cup of Maofeng tea in the morning.

"Well;;;;;; Mike, why is the tea water from Yuquan Mountain? Your grade is getting higher and higher." Zhen Yuhuan took a sip of tea and realized that the tea was water from Yuquan Mountain.

"Oh! Anita, since your family is rich, you moved here yesterday. I just want to change our lives. I asked Shui San'er to send a bucket of water from Yuquan Mountain. From now on, we will drink the same water as the Queen Mother. Water." Xie Xiuzhu was as steady as Mount Tai, holding up a teacup to drink tea, and now their family drinks tea in the morning and coffee in the afternoon.

"Very good!" Yelia agreed, and she also changed her habits and fell in love with the oriental diet.

Li Guolou warned: "Don't be lazy and lazy! You should learn from Mayuko, get up early to work, and the old lady will not invite you anymore!"

"Hi!" Yingying Yanyan answered with a polite bow.

The south of the capital is the residential area of ​​the Han people, and people on the street are all heading south.In order not to get separated from Chu Xiangyu, Li Guolou walked on the street holding Chu Xiangyu's hand. The society is progressing, and everyone is not surprised. There are countless pedestrians walking hand in hand.Almost all the people in the capital were dispatched, all to see the head of Jingguan and the head of the rebel leader Lai Wenguang.

The carriages were no longer able to pass, and only the flow of people was moving south. Among the crowd, Li Guolou asked, "Xiao Xiangyu, are you used to staying at Second Grandma's house? Do you want to go back to Yuejia's magic class?"

"Why don't you go back? It's great to play cards and play together. My sisters are very kind to me. The second grandma said she would take me to the Old Summer Palace to play." Chu Xiangyu walked beside Li Guolou, smiling brightly like fireworks.

"Ah! You are so capable, you can even enter the imperial forbidden area to play." Li Guolou was envious, he didn't even touch the edge of the Forbidden City.

"Hmph! Fool, the more people you know, the more benefits. Some places in the Old Summer Palace are open to noble women. We have a strong 'Mike Support Group', and we are everywhere in the capital." Chu Xiangyu leaned close to Li Guolou If you are around, you are afraid of being taken advantage of by others.

"Let's go boating tomorrow! Eat boat dishes!" Chu Xiangyu added, women stay together to have fun and spend money like water.

"So free! Xiao Xiangyu should learn to save money, don't be lavish like a foreign girl. They treat you well now, and when I die, the tree falls and the macaques scatter, no one will care about you." Li Guolou went to see the dead Head, can't help but think that he will die too.

Chu Xiangyu scolded angrily: "Bah, bah, bah! Crow's mouth! Good luck. Brother Xiaolou is not allowed to die until my son has a family."

The Meridian Gate is an archway, not far from Xiannongtan, on the same meridian, the huge bluestone square is used for military parades.The hideous faces of people's heads were piled up into two Jingguan, and each Jingguan had about a thousand heads. Outside the row of horses, the common people gathered around and pointed, smiling and looking at the dead heads.

There is no gravel on the ground of the square, otherwise I don't know how many stones would be thrown.There were screams and cheers, and the common people applauded and celebrated, loudly praising the achievements of Prince Gong and Li Zhongtang. With these two Optimus Primes protecting the Qing Empire, Emperor Tongzhi could rest easy.

The head of the bandit leader Lai Wenguang hung above the archway, and Li Guolou looked up at the unshaven head and felt emotional.There are no soldiers who are mighty when they are arrested quickly. The officers and soldiers standing still are like King Kong in the temple.

"Brother Xiaolou, let's go!" Chu Xiangyu couldn't bear to look at thousands of heads, and dared not take a second look after taking one look.

"What's the hurry!" Li Guolou pulled Chu Xiangyu, admiring the landscape made of human heads and the valiant soldiers.

"Brother Xiaolou, aren't you going to visit Li Zhongtang?" Chu Xiangyu asked curiously.

Li Guolou glanced at him and said, "uncle didn't meet the emperor before, and he didn't see guests and relatives. I'm a young person, so I have to deliver the post to deliver Fengyi first, and then I can meet uncle at a fixed time. You think uncle likes me, he There are hundreds of disciples who have registered their names, how could they have thought of me."

Li Guolou was depressed. He had spent more than a year in the capital. It was because his uncle Li Hongzhang didn't lend a helping hand and played tricks behind his back to make him return without success.

Seeing Li Guolou staring intently, Chu Xiangyu was still walking around, looking at the equipment and horses of the Nian Army, trying to make another plan, and said softly, "Brother Xiaolou, I'm hungry."

Li Guolou was still not satisfied, and said angrily: "Xiao Xiangyu, you have to be good when I bring you here. It's a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. This kind of thing happens once in a lifetime. Didn't you see the three people from our "Baozhu Photo Studio" inside?" Do you want to take pictures? I must take pictures as souvenirs." It turned out that Li Guolou refused to leave, but was waiting for the photographer Roberts and others to arrive.

"Oh!" Chu Xiangyu had goosebumps all over her body when she thought with a bitter face that the background of the photo was a bunch of human heads.

A beard of the photographer Roberts is a unique symbol, and now he deliberately wears a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, and his strange appearance is unforgettable.It also allowed Roberts to take the lead and be able to enter the infield of Jingguan to take pictures.

Li Guolou finally waited for the opportunity, took dozens of photos of the scene, and left happily.

"Xiao Xiangyu, you still don't want it now. After a few years, I don't know how much those grandmas will envy you. You are witnessing history. These photos are worth thousands of gold." Li Guolou said persuasively.

Chu Xiangyu took Li Guolou's hand and said with a smile, "I know! As long as you fancy something, it's valuable."

Li Guolou grumbled: "No, you will depreciate."

"What did you say!" Chu Xiangyu shook off Li Guolou's hand angrily, with tears in her eyes, she pursed her lips and refused to leave.

Li Guolou stopped in his tracks and said with a playful smile, "Don't be angry, Xiao Xiangyu, I'm teasing you on purpose. From now on, we'll be buried together, and we won't be separated when we die."

"Go! Brother Xiaolou, you look crazy at dead people, and you haven't left a word of death along the way, slap yourself!" Chu Xiangyu was really angry this time, and stood on the street wiping tears and crying.

"Crack!" Li Guolou knew he was wrong, and slapped himself. You can't bully Chu Xiangyu just because he has no money or status. You deserve it yourself.
