Hidden Dragon in Qing Dynasty

Ministry of Internal Affairs's supervisor, Lian Xing, had also lost his mask of a good person today. Smiling Tiger did not laugh and pointed at the little eunuch who had just knocked out the box, and started to kill him.

The two guards from Ministry of Internal Affairs rushed forward and dragged the frail little eunuch like a dog. The pitiful fellow kept begging for mercy, but no one paid any attention to him.

"Please spare me, please spare me …" "Master, please detain this servant's life …"

However, no one was willing to bother with him anymore. Even Weng Tonghe, Feng Fu and the rest of the Qing Liu Han Lin were no longer willing to care about him.

Tongzhi had returned, yet he did not come to Shanghai to receive them. This was a capital offense!

He had to hurry now, he had to pull the welcoming party before the emperor arrived in Shanghai!

Everyone only glanced at the young eunuch, but didn't say anything. They continued with their work, but at this time, a group of fast horses rushed over from afar, protecting a palanquin.

The one leading the way in front of the sedan was actually the Military Chief, Peng Yulin, and an aged voice from inside the sedan said, "The Donghua Gate is almost here?"

"Yes, Marshal. Donghua Gate is up ahead. Now that we are passing by the treasury of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, what about the old man and the others, including Ministry of Internal Affairs and Lian Xing, who are moving their stuff and preparing to leave? "

Then, it was not difficult to guess the identity of the person in the sedan, it was Ceng Guofan who stayed in the capital to balance the political situation and become the hostage of the Xiang Army!

"Cough, cough …" Why did I just hear about killing people? To welcome a good day for His Majesty, it's not good to kill people … "

"Ah …" Peng Yulin complied from the back of the horse, and the horse galloped forward as it roared loudly, "The good days of taking over the reins are not to be offended by other people, there is no blood light …" Let this eunuch go! "

"Who …" Lian Xing turned his head wanting to curse, but when he saw that it was the Military Minister and the familiar palanquin, his face immediately changed and he flattered his.

"Ouch …" Lord Peng! The marshal was going to enter the palace as well? Come on, come on, I'll listen to you... Men, let that little dog go! "This brat's luck is really big …"

The young eunuch who knocked over the box kneeled on the ground and kowtowed to the sedan chair with all his might, his forehead bleeding. "Long live the dukes …"

Ceng Guofan and the others had no choice but to step forward when Ceng Guofan came in person. The old man led a group of Purifying Department officials to surround him and pay respects, "Greetings to the great marshal!"

Cough cough cough … The inside of the sedan chair coughed, then the old farmer opened the curtain to reveal the old Ceng Guofan, "My body is in a bad mood, so I won't sit inside the sedan chair anymore …"

"Of course, of course. Marshal, take care of yourself!"

It was only the end of summer, but Weng Tonghe could already see the white fox skin under Ceng Guofan's butt.

Ceng Guofan reached out his hand and called out to Weng Tonghe, "Don't be impatient, I have already arranged in advance that there will be American fire ships waiting for you in Da Gu Kou … There's still time! "

"It doesn't matter even if you're late by a day or two. Your Majesty has traveled the entire world. You won't be blamed for such a small matter …"

"Calm your heart. You must definitely calm your heart down …"

After giving a few instructions, Ceng Guofan, escorted by Peng Yulin, slowly walked towards Donghua Gate. Logically speaking, Donghua Gate was not a entrance that officials should enter and leave, but the imperial government was taking care of Great Marshal Zeng.

The Great Marshal lived in the east side of the city, it would be better to walk closer to the Donghua Gate. With the current situation, there was no need to care about any rules, even the princes of the Eight Flag were doing business with the Special Zone.

Weng Tonghe watched the marshal's group enter the Donghua Gate, and prayed in his heart: "marshal, please do not let anything happen to you! The current mess in the imperial government is something only you can control … Before the His Majesty is truly in charge of personal affairs, you have to be alive! "

"What are you looking at!?" Go on... Didn't you hear that the marshal had arranged an American steamer in the Da Gu Kou? They're all coal-burning, and they can even drive in the wind. "" No, I don't, "I said." No, no "Hurry and get on the ship!"

Putting aside Weng Tonghe and the others, there were still a few other genuine buddhas in the Forbidden City. They could not leave the Beijing, as the political situation of the late Qing was entirely dependent on them.

empress dowagers was already present, Prince Kung, Prince of Alcohol as well as Prince Chun of the Little Fifth Master. Dao Guang Emperor's three sons were also present.

They anxiously waited for Ceng Guofan to arrive. Not long later, a young eunuch ran in from outside the door and knelt down, "Reporting to the empress dowager and prince, Great Marshal Zeng has already entered the Donghua Gate, the palanquin has already been brought over …"

"Please... "Quick, come in!" Ci Xi was the first to speak.

In this period of time, Ci Xi was as anxious and restless as an ant on a hot pan. Ever since the news that the Tongzhi Emperor had left Europa and returned home had arrived, Ci Xi had been going crazy.

Sometimes he would cry, sometimes he would laugh. He was completely hysterical!

Everyone knew that when the Jingshan Palace changed, Ci Xi lost most of his power and was completely at a disadvantage in the political battle.

If it wasn't for the fact that her son was the emperor, she wouldn't have been able to keep her little life. Her son was her everything, and he was her greatest reliance on restoring her power.

Everyone present knew what Ci Xi was thinking, they had never mentioned it before, but the three princes even stood up. "Ceng Shuai still has to bother him to enter the palace, we have to welcome him …"

After saying that, the three dukes walked out of the Yangxin Palace, and actually stood at the door waiting for Ceng Guofan's palanquin!

No one could pick out Ceng Guofan from the Yangxin Palace after riding in the palanquin. Not long after, they saw Peng Yulin and a group of eunuchs supporting the palanquin as they walked over quickly.

"Falling palanquin, quickly descend …" It's so embarrassing for me, how can the three princes personally come to welcome us! "

In the end, the Young Fifth Master Yi that was famous for his benevolence and righteousness actually took a few quick steps forward and grabbed onto Ceng Guofan's hand while saying with concern, "Why has the marshal lost weight again … Are the eunuchs and maids that I've made for the marshal hard to order around? "

"Ouch …" Prince Chun has truly failed me, they are serving me well … It's really hard to buy someone with a thousand gold coins, isn't it? "

Everyone was a pillar of the late Qing's political scene. Although they all had their own thoughts, at this moment, they looked like a row of celestial beings, walking together into the Yangxin Palace.

When he entered the Yangxin Palace, Ceng Guofan still wanted to bow, but how could the empress dowagers make him kneel? "You don't have a good body, quickly move the chair over …"

"You are the Great Qing's Sea Suppressing Divine Needle! You will feel at ease when you are with I … "

Ceng Guofan was indeed at the end of his tether. Others might not know him, but Xiao Letian knew very well that next year, 1872 would be the end of Ceng Guofan's life.

However, no one could say whether or not Ceng Guofan could pass through this hurdle in this parallel universe. However, Xiao Letian knew that the inertia of history was still extremely strong.

Xiao Letian was even clear that before Ceng Guofan could take care of government affairs, he would need a small amount of opium to calm his mind. Furthermore, he would also need the guard elder Nong's help to soothe his vital energy and blood.

Just like that, Ceng Guofan could only maintain his office for thirty to forty minutes, and then, he would immediately rest!

How many times had Jiu Shuai and the others advised him to quickly return to his village to rest? However, the Great Marshal had refused all of them!

"Before His Majesty comes to power, I will not leave, and I will not die!"
