Hidden Dragon in Qing Dynasty

In the south side of Taihe Temple, there was a gate called Taihe Gate. This was the first gate behind the meridian, and it was extremely important to the entire structure of the Forbidden City!

Do not think that this is just a door, in truth it is just a small palace, the Ming and Qing dynasties both had the tradition of Taihe Gate taking charge of politics!

The future generations all thought that the Kaiser was located in the largest palace in Taihe Temple, but this was just a misunderstanding on the part of the regular people. The size and size of the Taihe Temple was too big and too high, and it could only be used during a real ceremony or celebration!

The offices in the Kaiser usually used the traditional system of imperial court official, the door to rest the heart, the palace in the Taihe Gate, Recital s that could receive hundreds of officials, and they also had to deal with some government affairs!

However, this system was more difficult, the windy and sun-baked ministers could not bear it any longer, because most of the time, the mandarin seed would queue up to join the yard!

Gradually, Qing Dynasty developed this office which was one with the living and the handling of government affairs, so it was rare for the imperial court to have a system of governance!

Today, Emperor Tongzhi had rushed over to Taihe Gate at four in the morning, and angrily ordered all hundred officials to be gathered, as all Official s of the third stage and above were to gather at the plaza in front of Taihe Gate!

The bloody battle the whole night shook Capital. As a Emperor, if he didn't have the slightest bit of attitude, then he really wouldn't be qualified!

The sky was dark, and the little Kaiser sat in front of the stairs. The cold and clear night wind blew gently, and he didn't approve of Da Sixi letting Zai Chun enter the hall several times to rest.

"Your Majesty... Go inside the hall and avoid the wind. You have just descended the edict. These ministers have been scattered around the city for at least an hour now. They shouldn't be able to gather here … "

"I will wait!" Zai Chun said in a stern voice, "We will wait six hours! "Tell the Tin s that they don't need to gather together, just let one of them in, I want to see who arrives first and who arrives late …"

Bao Yun had been on duty by Kaiser's side since last night. Seeing that Zai Chun's dragon-like aura was truly a little intimidating, he did not dare refute it and moved his mouth as he said softly, "This subject will go out of meridian to welcome you."

"Wait!" "There's no need for you to go out and collude with them. Just wait here …"

Bao Yun's face reddened slightly andhe quickly retreated down the stairs. Standing alone on the plaza to the north of the Golden River, she looked as uncomfortable as he could possibly feel!

The Taihe Gate in the darkness was completely silent. He had replaced the bodyguard in the corner and stood there with his spear in his hand. No one else knew that these Forces nouvelles spears were filled with live ammunition.

The streets were filled with the shouts and gongs of Nimentinol and yamen s clearing the streets, as well as the faint sounds of horses' hooves!

As the fire dragons and their Carriage clashed their way past the Street, the red glow from the southeast side gradually dimmed down. It seemed like the fire had been controlled!

What a magical night, the silence in front of the Taihe Gate seemed even more illusory and unreal. If it wasn't for the fact that the people around him were so scared that their bodies were trembling, he would have thought that everything that happened tonight was just a dream!

There were faint shadows moving in the direction of the meridian. The first to rush over was Fu Qing, who ran with a head full of sweat. After three kowtows and nine kowtows in front of the stairs, Zai Chun raised his hand and said, "Rise …"

"Fu Qing! I'm asking you... You are the reformist of our Manchu, you have studied the Western Technology very carefully, I want to ask you, how is the airship? "

Hearing that, Fu Qing immediately kneeled down again. "Your Majesty! This airship is showing her prowess in the France, and the officials in the imperial court are criticizing her, saying that she is just bragging and making things difficult for her! "

"But this official does not think so! This airship is indeed powerful, but carefully analyzing the logic behind the central origin, is not too complicated!

"This should just be an enlarged version of the hot air balloon. As long as I have studied western germology, which is physics, I will be able to understand the principles behind this …"

"This subject would like to invite a decree today …"

"Speak!" Zai Chun trusted Fu Qing quite a bit, although he already knew the rumors about Ci An and himself, but in the end, it was still a rare reformist, and a talent that he had to rely on!

If it wasn't clean, then so be it.

"Your Majesty! Today, airship attacked Capital and the people in the city already started to panic, I'm afraid that within a few days, this panic will turn into all kinds of bizarre myths and legends! "

"There are too many legends in Chinese right now. I can't let him continue to be afraid … This official asks you to print a flyer and a batch of Newspapers s inside the Capital to solve people's confusion! "

"Explain the principles behind airship and hot air balloon to people... As long as people understands, and the mysteriousness disappears, there will be no more fear, and there will be no more legends about his opponents! "

"Oh!" Interesting, you really are a reformist. To be able to see and affect people's hearts from this … This Emperor has given his permission, so go and do it! "

"If you can calm the fear that the airship has brought to the Popular this time, I will allow you to complete another assignment … "Alright, we will permit you to issue a copy of Daqing's newspaper, we will have to organize the official Newspapers ourselves!"

Fu Qing's eyes lit up and he quickly kowtowed to express his gratitude. Brilliant! This is the ultimate weapon to solve the problem of the human heart. It should have been done a long time ago.

Bao Yun sighed: "So that means that adults Fu Qing also supports the purchase of airship?"

Fu Qing turned his head and cupped his hands towards, "adults Bao Yun, you are an old senior. You have experienced far more things than me … How many times have you seen it? How much of a loss has our Daqing suffered from this weapon? "

"When British and French combined forces attacked Capital back then! If we had one to two hundred foreign cannon s, we would have to fight across the oculi bridge … "Do you think you can lose like this?"

"Even if the worst comes to worst, we can at least tie and then negotiate slowly!"

"If you don't eat the equipment, you will lose. Do you think you should buy this airship?"

Bao Yun's hands trembled in pain, "I know! But the silver … There are too many places in court that use silver … "

Zai Chun gritted his teeth and said viciously: "I need to borrow money to become a Forces nouvelles, so I need to get my equipment too! When we were in Europe, we already understood that in the future, battles would be all about weapons! "

"It's not that the Army of the France are not elite, it's that the Soldiers loves their country very much, in the battlefield, they would really risk their lives!"

"Unfortunately, Artillery are not as good as Prussia, railway control is not as good, and the transmission of information is also not as good as Enemy's … It's the loss of equipment, the defeat of others, and the annihilation of a nation! "

"You, Bao Yun, do not wish for my Daqing to perish as well, right? Exile my Kaiser into a lone island on a sea? "

"This subject doesn't dare, this subject doesn't mean that …" Bao Yun also knelt down.

At this time, another person came running over. It was Zai Chun, the Fifth Uncle.
