Hidden Dragon in Qing Dynasty

The Beijing was angry! Everyone in Beijing was discussing the conflict in Guandong Gate at noon, especially those who had experienced it personally. As long as they said that they had personally experienced the entire process, there would immediately be people who would treat him to a drink and give him a free ticket.

"Men! Tell me about today's incident, how did the old setae bully people … "

Even a drunk person with a red head and a flowery face wouldn't have that much face! He really wanted to jump onto the table and talk about "Speaking of which, that old setae is really hateful. If he were to insult and insult and insult Prime Minister Xiao of the East China Sea, that His Excellency the Special Envoy would be shot in the face if he were to slightly raise his hand …"

"Aiyo!" The envoy was shot? Is there still any law in this world!? "

"Wait a minute, I'm not done yet. The bullet didn't hit and flew past my scalp …" "But that's dangerous enough. If we move down just a bit, we'll lose our lives …"

"Ladies and gentlemen!" Today, I found out that the old setae was purposely provoking trouble, creating some kind of plot for the three-way groove to find an excuse to fight with us, Da Qing … "They want to take over the land outside the pass, and even Shandong and the others want to take over. They say they want to build a military port …"

"Damn it!" Everyone slapped the table and cursed, "This old setae is really something, why doesn't the imperial government care? I see this Great Qing Dynasty... "I want to play!"

"Be quiet, be quiet!" You must have had too much to drink, right? If you scold old setae, you will scold old setae. Why are you scolding the imperial government? "

The entire night in Beijing was spent in an uproar, causing the citizens to hold in their anger, but to no avail. Other than cursing, they could only beg the heavens to send some famous Holy Lord to teach these foreign devils a lesson.

The streets of late Qing were already like this. The majority of the people dreamed of a strong person saving them and never considered how they could become stronger to save themselves. Of course, this couldn't be blamed on them. Most of the time, the emperor wouldn't want the citizens to have the ability to save themselves because those abilities would naturally conflict with the imperial power.

This caused the late Qing to have a strange expression. The emperor and the imperial government hated the commoners for not fighting and hated the officials and the rich military officials for not being willing to die.

It was a rare thing in this world that people had to be gentle, obedient sheep in front of others and fierce tigers against foreign enemies. It was the funniest joke in the world.

At the same time, the citizens also had a double standard towards the imperial government. On one hand, they hoped that the imperial government would be as warm as the spring wind in front of them. On the other hand, they also hoped that the imperial government would be as hard as ever on the outside and would not lose face for the imperial government.

This was the root of all the chaos in the late Qing. The ruler and the ruled were all in a state of serious mental disorder, each of them did not properly define their own responsibilities and powers, as though everyone could explain their responsibilities.

Everyone wants power, and no one wants to shoulder the responsibility. Absolute self-interest, long ago, was the result of serious internal strife, which accelerated corruption and corruption.

What was worse was that this mess just happened to fall into the realm of globalization. Originally, they could have just closed their doors and slowly regulated themselves, but now, they suddenly became the weakness of the foreign invaders. While you are sick and want your life, your weakness is not a reason for me to let you go, on the contrary, your weakness is a great opportunity for me to cut off your flesh.

It was such a dreary day, and someone should have come to break it!

The entire night, the citizens all drank and cursed before returning home to take a nap. The senior officials of Qing Dynasty gathered together and discussed the diplomatic conflict, but couldn't come up with anything even after talking for half a day. Prince Kung was so angry that he threw two tea bowls in a row.

As for the middle and lower ranking officials, they seemed to have nothing to do with each other. They found a place to drink, hugged their women and slept soundly. As for the matters of the world, it was none of their business.

What was supposed to come would come, however. When the empress dowagers and the many officials and officials on the second morning did not have a unanimous opinion, a young eunuch ran over like the wind.

"Reporting to the empress dowager, all the masters … It was just after time, Lord Russian Minister had already brought his team over to Head Office, and following that, the envoy of the Ryukyu also arrived. Your Highness, there is not a single official in Head Office right now, so we have to urgently request for reinforcements! "

"Ouch …" Sixth Uncle, quickly go to the Head Office to watch over them and try your best to adapt to the situation. Ci Xi and Ci An gave their orders almost at the same time.

Yi Nan placed her hat on her head, before she could salute, she turned and rushed out. The group of eunuchs by her side anxiously ran in the direction of the Donghua Gate.

"Quick, pass down the order that all negotiation envoys must not bring guns to negotiate... Quick ruling of the American Legation and the British Minister Palace, I request both Ambassadors to accompany me … "

"Have the minister of nine city gates deploy troops, isolate the outside and the inside, and absolutely do not allow outsiders to watch … Let the Shuntian Palace cooperate to maintain order! "Damnit, whatever you're afraid of, just come at me …"

When they reached the Head Office, they found that there were already tens of thousands of people waiting outside. The efficiency of the minister of nine city gates's soldiers and servants were too low, and they were unable to make it here even after a long time.

"What's going on? Take my film and go call in... "Hurry up!" Yi Nan was still fuming with anger, when she heard the sound of the hooves coming from behind her. When she raised her head, she saw that Yi Xuan, the Seventh Brother, had personally led a group of riders to suppress her.

The streets were filled with soldiers, even the Total's yamen was surrounded. The cold gleam of the long spears and sabers scared the citizens into retreating, followed by the sound of the gong in the streets of Shuntian Palace. A group of lackeys aggressively drove the citizens out.

"We're all home. Why are you all here? Get lost!"

Yi Nan and Yi Xuan, the two princes, strode inside. When they reached the main hall, they realized that the two sides had not met yet and were preparing for battle in the rooms to the left and right. The smell of gunpowder could be smelled coming from the walls.

Perhaps because both sides had restrained themselves due to the fire incident yesterday, the order to shoot was very smooth. The guards on both sides, including the envoys themselves, were handed over their own guns. At this time, the United States, Britain and even the Minister of France had rushed over with their own goals in mind.

Clang! Clang! With two loud bangs, the door of the east and west wing was kicked open. The ambassadors of both sides had clearly accumulated their anger points and were holding in their anger as they attacked.

As the two groups headed towards the lobby, Yi Yuan's palm was full of sweat. For safety's sake, leave your sabre in the house too. All weapons cannot be taken out of the house. "

Ulangeli clenched his fists so hard that his knuckles cracked loudly, "Your Royal Highness! Am I going to chop off my fist and leave it in the room? "

Xiao Hexin tapped the green stone with his iron staff, "This cane is a gift from the Crown Prince of Prussia! Do I, a cripple, have to lose my staff? "

"Haargh!" The smell of gunpowder became denser, and all the people in Head Office shrank back in fear.
