Hidden Dragon in Qing Dynasty

Master Gui Xiang held onto Tongzhi's hand and asked while enduring the pain, "Your Majesty! All are parents, the empress dowager really does care about you! "

"Today, even the empress dowager is unhappy about what happened …" Mother and son, what are you not saying! "

"Your Majesty, go apologize to the empress dowager … If the whole family does not work together, then wouldn't they be bullied to death by outsiders! "

His honest and honest uncle gave Zai Chun a big stepping stone. After all, Zai Chun was still a teenager, and after hearing this, he could not hold back anymore!

He kneeled down and walked a few steps while hugging Ci Xi's leg and cried loudly!

"Mother... Wu wu wu … This son's unfilial actions had angered Mother … "Sob, sob, sob …"

Everyone in the room began to cry. When the eunuchs and palace maids saw this scene, they began to cry!

After Ci Xi cried for a while, the anger in his heart dissipated. He knew that he would not be able to get his hands on the silver, so he dispelled his wishful thinking and started to wholeheartedly advise his son.

"Child... Even if he couldn't get the money! "With an Englishman watching them, at least they won't be able to get away with it even if they can't get away with it even if they can't get away with it!"

"We lost 600,000 today, let's just treat it as buying a lesson!" The Emperor is the Son of Heaven. If you want to be magnanimous, then don't care about this small amount of money! "

"Yes!" What Mother said was … This son doesn't care about this little bit of money. This son is angry with these people for disobeying him! Furthermore, after this incident, many people in the imperial court would be moved! "

"If the imperial power is humiliated like this, how am I going to govern this country in the future?"

"No!" Back then, before the Sacred Ancestor, Lord Kang Xi, took the wrath of Ao Bai when he was in power, didn't he do the same when he was arrogant in the end? "

"The early years of the Shunzhi Emperor was suppressed by Dorgon to the point where he couldn't do anything about it. But ten years is not too late for a gentleman to take revenge!"

"Son, now do you know why Mother made you endure it? The personal governance needs to take over the authority bit by bit, you can't be in a hurry! "

"From today onwards, you must stabilize your state of mind and peacefully wait for your wedding and the pro-political ceremony … "During this period of time, there cannot be the slightest bit of trouble!"

"Be careful, do not speak... "Remember, you are the emperor. You can do a lot of things, but you can't say them!"

Just as Ci Xi was teaching his son how to govern a country, Gui Xiang, the benefactor, suddenly remembered his purpose for coming here today. This official will report your emergency intelligence! "

After speaking, Gui Xiang repeated the secret message between Ceng Guofan and Yi Jie in the Scenic Gate. In the end, he even mentioned something important: "Empress Dowager, this humble subject seems to …" He seemed to have heard it … The word 'Eighth King'! "

"After that, the Great Marshal Zeng and Yi Yuan left on bad terms. Yi Yuan was angry for a while and actually ordered the Ministry of Internal Affairs to transfer away the few guards that were on duty today!"

"If you do not pass the formalities of a Minister, directly getting the Ministry of Internal Affairs to transfer people, that would be going overboard!"

Ci Xi's eyes immediately revealed a terrified look, "The eight kings … Are you sure it's the words' Eight Kings'? " Ci Xi dipped his finger in the tea and wrote the two words "Eighth Prince" on the table.

"That's right. This humble subject has heard it clearly …" Should... It should be the negotiation of the eight kings! "

"What a good dog thief!" Zai Chun immediately scolded in rage, "No wonder so many people have joined Yi Nan, he actually offered such a high price!"

"The Eight Kings are negotiating! They actually dared to restore the system of negotiation of the eight kings? "Is he trying to overtake me?"

"Shh …" Silence! "Lower your voice …" Ci Xi's face was pale white. "I never thought that General Gui Six would actually think of doing such a thing!"

"The Eight Kings' Government is a ghost of our Great Qing. It has been wandering around since the founding of the country and it has never dissipated!"

"But you don't have to be afraid. Since they wanted to negotiate with the eight emperors, it means they are suffering from a chronic illness. A chronic illness is good, but a chronic illness can at least delay them for a little longer!"

"The key to the negotiations between the eight kings is still having an emperor, so no matter what, you cannot raise the flag! He would have to use schemes and tricks to get rid of you, instead of directly destroying himself to become an emperor! "

"Don't be afraid, child... In the end, you still have to get married in person. At least, you have to get your name in your hands! "

"Chef for His Majesty … I is going to the Beiyuan. This matter must be discussed properly with the Empress Dowager of the East! "

"Don't worry, this Great Qing can't overturn the heavens!"

Zai Chun looked at Mother, his eyes revealing a grateful expression. Then, will our big iron mill still be built? Mother, We Great Qing really need to build our own cannons, we cannot rely on others anymore! "

"You! Why do you still have to do this? Are you really not afraid of all these trouble? "

At this moment, Hairy # 2 who had been tilting his head and analyzing the situation suddenly knelt down. "Reporting to the empress dowager …" Your servant feels that this big iron mill's plan cannot be stopped! We still have to do it according to the emperor's plan! "

"Er Mao, what do you mean? Did he really have to go against I? Do you really think that with Xiao Letian supporting you, I will not be able to cure you? "

Mao shook his head. "The empress dowager was mistaken about this servant!" You will understand the truth once you talk about it! "

"Just now, the emperor acknowledged five million taels of silver in front of all the officials as British military aid!"

"This is what the red mouth and white teeth said! "In other words, these people are gnawing on six hundred and fifty thousand taels of flesh and bones. Their eyes will definitely still be thinking about that five million taels of fat pig!"

"Their greed is hard to fill, how can their greed be enough!"

"They will give birth to all sorts of incidents and think of all sorts of ways to rob His Majesty of his money … Maybe Lian Xing will use the excuse of the Emperor's lack of silver for the wedding preparation ceremony to ask for money! "

"At that time, giving it or not will be very troublesome …" It would be better to let His Majesty continue the construction of the metal factory, as long as there is an excuse to stop them from talking! "

If you want to work with Ci Xi, if you want to get this woman to nod her head, you must remember, don't talk about our family's feelings, don't talk about our righteous rights, these empty slogans, she won't listen to!

You have to use the way you deal with a country slut to convince her!

How can I convince him? He had to use her weakness of being greedy and petty to convince her that this woman was greedy and stingy!

You told him that the completion of the iron mill was good for the country, but it was useless, and she didn't have time to listen to that!

But you told him that if he didn't build the iron mill, that 5 million silver would be taken away! This time, her heart immediately ached for the silver!

Look, the starting point of his heart was different, and the final result would naturally be different as well!

When he heard that five million silver could be taken away, Ci Xi became anxious, "What's wrong with that? Are they going to rebel!? "

"Ah, empress dowager, the eighth prince has already spoken his words for political negotiations, but they still care about rebelling? "Today, we have already snatched away 650,000 silver, so we don't need that 5 million!"

"But …" "But …" Ci Xi was still hesitant. She was born with a conflict in his heart with Western world, it was really too difficult to accept.

Hairy # 2 clapped his hands and smiled. "Oh, Empress Dowager!" This silver would be more of a sleep if it was kept in the storehouse. It would be better to build a moneymaking iron factory! "

"You don't know how much money the Steel plant in Europa earned. Just those blast furnaces in the Northern Special Region can earn tens of thousands of silver taels with just a pot of molten steel!"

"A net profit of two or three million a year!"

"Five million might seem like a lot of investment, but as long as there's an official product, it can only be refunded in two years. In the future, there will only be annual savings!"

"Really? You have such a high profit? " Ci Xi's eyes lit up!
