Hidden Dragon in Qing Dynasty

Ceng Guoquan suddenly turned his head, only to see Prince Chun's smiling face looking at him. Suppressing the panic in his heart, Jiu Shuai cupped his hands and smiled, "Greetings to Prince Chun, why are you not sleeping yet?"

Yi Cong hurriedly reached out to support Ceng Guoquan, "Wasn't Jiu Shuai also awake? My heart is flustered, I really can't sleep … The storm outside this great hall is heavy, I wonder if your majesty can withstand it! "

Jiu Shuai smiled slightly: "As long as you are willing to help out everyone, no matter how heavy the storm is, it doesn't matter … You still need to rely on others to accomplish your goals! "

"That's … that's …" I wonder if the incense that Jiu Shuai just sent over has been lit ablaze? Hail, did you sleep? "

"Haha …" "Your highness, there is no need to probe. This subject has nothing to hide from the people of the world. I just sent five million to His Majesty for military assistance. His Majesty's army training is already so poor that he has to pay for it. Our subjects will have to share the worries!"

He never expected Ceng Guoquan to be so honest, but Yi Cong blushed a little, the Heroic King who was filled with anger, immediately cupped his fists and said, "Jiu Shuai is indeed straightforward, I have to make this friend of yours … … You want to have a drink in the next two days? "

"Of course, this humble subject is just waiting for Your Highness's invitation?"

"It's a deal!"

went back to rest, but Yi Cong refused to leave no matter what. He paced back and forth in the garden, as if trying to muster up his courage.

The surrounding guards and imperial guards did not stop him, allowing him to walk around the garden freely.

At this moment, Tongzhi was already resting on the bed with his eyes closed. Hairy # 2 walked in and whispered, "Your majesty, Prince Chun has been walking back and forth in the garden every single time …"

"Let him continue turning … No one will care about him, no one will care about him! "

Just as they were talking, Man Shun also lowered his eyebrows and quickly walked in, "His Majesty, Fifth Prince requests an audience!"

"Hehe …" He really couldn't help but mutter. Just as he was speaking, he arrived … Please come in! "

Yi Cong bent over and quickly walked in. Seeing that the Tongzhi Emperor was about to get off the bed, he hurriedly walked over. "Your majesty is resting, your majesty is leaning on it … This subject will be troubling you! "

"Take a look for Imperial Uncle, hurry up and don't bow, take a seat …"

Yi Cong sat on the soft chair, with a weird expression on his face. Hairy # 2 waved his hand and ordered all the palace maids and eunuchs to leave the room.

The two of them were the only ones left in the room. Yi Cong clenched his teeth and stomped his feet as he said, "Your majesty … "If you believe in this uncle of mine, then please be patient and don't be too quick with the government …"

"No, it's not that I won't allow you to go to the pro-government ceremony. The key thing is, even if you do, don't think that you can actually go to the pro-government ceremony …"

Yi Cong was so anxious that his face was flushed red and he scratched his ears. When he couldn't explain it clearly, he just stood up and took out a land deed from his bosom.

"Do you know that your subject has always been idle? There is no actual affairs, the Ministry of Internal Affairs is just a steward, but her authority is not as great as Lian Xing, that little bastard. Your subject really doesn't have much money … …"

"There are at least 300 manors in total. It is enough for His Majesty to set up a military camp and set up the imperial guards …" Your Majesty, please accept this favor! "

Zai Chun laughed, "Royal Uncle, what are you doing? On the one hand, tell us not to act personally, and on the other hand, offer up the land and manor … Don't tell me that I don't even have a place to build a barracks? "

"No matter how many manors you have, you still have more than the emperor's manor? "Royal Uncle, you can say whatever you want. There won't be six ears tonight …"

"Alright …" "I won't hide anything. I really don't have much money that I can't help you with. However, you should still accept this manor, because this is the most suitable place for the imperial guards to set up camp …"

"Right now, the situation in the capital is very subtle. Great Marshal Zeng's troops have already reached near Zhuozhou's High Tablet Shop, and Yi's New Army is located in the Western Mountains, near Sha River and Bei An River …"

"Where can the imperial guards put them at this time?" "Only by placing it in the most suitable position would the three armies become the mainstay of their efforts. They would be able to restrain each other …"

"Your Majesty, although there are a lot of estates in the Royal Capital, there aren't any in such a good position. It's best that you accept this kind of offer!"

Speaking up to here, Yi Cong clenched his teeth and said, "Your Majesty, let's be clear, my Sixth Brother is not training thirty thousand soldiers in the Western Mountain. That's a whole sixty thousand soldiers! "

Now that the words had come to this, Zai Chun also followed suit and sat up. He reached out to take his uncle's hand and pulled him to sit beside the bed. If you can tell me the truth, then your nephew's heart will be ironed! "

"I... "All this time, I've felt terrible inside …" Zai Chun's eyes immediately turned red.

"I want to be in charge. I want to build an iron army. What is my goal?" Isn't it supposed to be a joyous occasion for us to enjoy ourselves! "Let's stop being bullied by outsiders …"

"What kind of world is this, the law of the jungle!" Even the powerful France was trampled to death by the new Prussia.

"Even the capital was lost. The ceremony where the German Emperor was crowned in the French palace, do you think it's a bullying?"

"We can't be so arrogant. If we continue to act this way, sooner or later, our country will fall!"

"You still want to eat ironclad crops? "At that time, even if you don't starve to death …"

"But what have these people done to me? Royal Uncle, you touched your conscience and said, how did they treat me? In the end, the ones who took action were outsiders! "

"The Head of the Guards snatches the shares of the bank from the Fusang people for me to train with, the Zeng Family Brothers are giving us money and even Ceng Guofan is almost sick, but you still have to stand at the front for us!"

"Not to mention Zuo Zongtang, Hu Xueyan and the rest, even though Xinjiang is short of pay, they are still saving money for our imperial guards!"

"Even the foreign devils have lent me money … I will not hide it from my royal uncle. The British did indeed give me a large loan, but it was conditional, of course, but even if the British had evil intentions, they at least saw the money! "

"Chinese, Chinese Officer, Foreign Nationality …" And there are merchants whom the court officials have all scolded. No matter how much they think about it, at the very least, they would show it to the public! "

"But our Xiluo's family? Where are our eight flags? Other than Fu Qing, who else would have a little bit of heart for us? "

"Yi Cong, tell us, in the entirety of the Eight Banners, who gave us one tael of silver? Speak up! "

Hearing the low roars of the little Emperor, Yi Cong could no longer sit still. He flipped and kneeled on the ground, "Please don't be angry, your majesty!"

"Get up …" Royal Uncle can stand up, you can say these words today, how many manors can you take out … "I can finally feel the warmth of my family!"

"I don't understand …" Aren't we doing this for the sake of the big guys? Isn't it all because of the relatives like Eight Banner, in the end, isn't it still our Xiluo's family? "

"But our imperial guards are eating sand rice and sweet potatoes in the Wuyishan! "From the beginning till the end, the capital has never paid a single silver coin!"

"What a chill this makes me!" What a cold heart! "

"Your Majesty, your Majesty doesn't need to speak anymore …" The subject knew all about it, but he couldn't make the decision either! "It's all because of Uncle Huang's incompetence that he was unable to share his worries …"

The fifth master was so excited that tears began to fall from his eyes. His uncle and nephew were actually hugging each other and pissing on their horses. It was normal for people to have such feelings, but it was extremely precious in the royal family.
