965 Outside and Inside

After Yang Zhi left, the meeting of the Yangxin Palace was not dispersed, and Li Lianying changed a ginseng soup for the princes, this is not a false decoration, this belongs to the grace of the Queen Mother, everyone must drink.

"It's not easy to get together, no matter how hard we work, we will discuss everything that should be discussed, and the situation is difficult, we can't be lazy if we want to......"

After a few mouthfuls of ginseng soup, all the princes and ministers recovered a trace of vitality, and they still took the lead to speak, "Now the internal and external troubles of the country and the dynasty are hitting together, and there are hundreds of thousands of Hunan troops in the south, and then there is the East China Sea entrenched Xiao Letian eyeing the tiger, and even His Majesty has left the capital to travel the world, which is a predicament that the dynasty has not seen in a hundred years......"

"Looking at the external troubles again, Zuo Jigao is still in the mud of Ganshan and Shaanxi, and the whole of Xinjiang has been completely eroded, not only that, the emergency military information sent by Heilongjiang General Tepuxin ten days ago, the remnants of the east bank of the Ussuri River and the Russians have clashed several times, and it is said that several villages have been slaughtered......

"What? What a bold man...... everyone was furious, after all, the northeast was the land of the Manchurian dragons, and the Ussuri River was the hometown of the Haixi Jurchens, and the Yehenara tribe where Cixi was located arose here.

Eight years ago, the Russians took advantage of the fire to rob and cut off the land east of the Ussuri River, although the imperial court knocked out its teeth and swallowed blood, but the anger in the heart has not subsided, and now the Rakshasa country still dares to kill the remnants of the east bank, which is really a great shame.

Cixi saw that the atmosphere in the Heart Cultivation Hall had changed greatly, and this topic was estimated to be crooked, and hurriedly said, "If you go outside, you must first settle inside, let's discuss the trouble of our henchmen first, the war between the northeast and northwest will be slowed down in advance, as long as the court is there, there will always be a way!"

Everyone is helpless when they think about it, anger is anger, but now is really not the time to turn their faces with the Russians, even if they want to turn their faces, they may not be able to beat them, everyone sighed in their hearts and all shut up.

External troubles can not be mentioned, then can only mention internal worries, now the Qing Dynasty's internal twist army and long hair have been completely quelled, Gansu and Shaanxi rebellion is pressed by Zuo Zongtang's army, and it is a matter of time to solve it, as for the distant Xinjiang, it is also a problem for Zuo Jigao.

What's more, the Great Wall defense system built by the Han people for thousands of years is still there, as long as the Dunhuang and Yumen in Anxi Mansion are defended, then the rebels want to threaten the hinterland of the Central Plains.

Thinking about it, Zeng Guofan and Xiao Letian are the two people who are the most headache, although Zeng Guofan, the old fox, is not easy to deal with, but he has always regarded himself as a loyal minister, and the Han Confucian ministers have to be restricted by the righteousness of the monarch and the minister, so the threat is not the highest.

The real opponent is still Xiao Letian!

But Xiao Lotian is not a fuel-efficient lamp, if Zeng Guofan is an old fox, then Xiao Lotian is a little fox, and he is all slippery and does not leave his hands.

Ninety percent of the princes and ministers in the court still hope that Xiao Lotian is finished, maybe some people want him to die, and another part of them want Xiao Lotian to fall, but no matter what Xiao Lotian does, people don't want such a force to exist.

This Xiao Lotian is simply a fierce black fish in the pond, and his presence makes all the goldfish koi feel threatened.

Since it is a threat, it must be eradicated, but how to eradicate it is really a big problem, the imperial court has been defeated several times in a row, and even the four or nine cities have been broken by the family, and the Taihe Hall has become a martial arts arena for the new army, and this shame makes people feel feverish when they think about it now.

When Xiao Letian proposed to take Emperor Tongzhi away and prepare to go on a study tour, the entire court actually had only crying and begging as a means of resistance, which was really a shame, a great shame!

You can't beat people in war, you don't have as much money as others to play, and you want to rely on Qingliu to carry out moral kidnapping, but people are outside the Qing Dynasty, and you can't go to Ryukyu to point your nose and scold the street. Thinking about it, everyone is helpless, Xiao Lotian puts his power on the overseas Ryukyu Island, which is simply a stroke of genius.

After all, the Central Plains civilization is a mainland civilization, if you stand in the circle of the mainland, they have a way to fight you, whether soft or hard, but Xiao Lotian jumped out of the three realms and was not in the five elements, actually chose to take root in the sea, this time the imperial court has no way, the sea has never been the sphere of influence of the Chinese.

There was a buzzing noise in the Heart Cultivation Palace, some people said that they wanted to lure the enemy deeper, and some people said that they wanted to build a large warship to conquer the ...... There are even people who want to invite the Taoist priests of Longhu Mountain and the Tibetan lamas to open the altar to accept this demon, and even more ridiculous Some people say that they want to reward Xiao Letian's beauty a lot, so that he will die of exhaustion in the bed.

Listening to the distracted discussions, Cixi, Yi, Yiyun and others frowned, and the bitter gourd face was so long, and finally Prince Gong coughed twice, "Stop and stop, you can't deal with Xiao Letian, let's listen to the opinions of the Queen Mother, don't forget that when Yang Zhi defected, if it wasn't for the Queen Mother's strategy, it is estimated that we would have been defeated and couldn't find the north!"

Yi is right, when Yang Zhi defected, the entire Ryukyu force had gone completely crazy, the total wealth involved in the banknote printing formula reached tens of billions, and the leakage of the secret recipe had a huge blow to the financial system of the Ryukyus.

At the most critical moment, Cixi was still in control, and he was like a shameless shrew in the countryside, defeating the invincible Xiao Lotian with complete shamelessness.

Do you dare to move a single hair of the imperial court to try? If you dare to do it, I will dare to betray the country, don't you Han people love a unified China the most? I will break it up for you.

Do you believe it or not, do you believe that I gave Canton to the British? Do you believe it or not? Do you believe it that I ceded Guangxi, Yunnan and Guizhou to the French?

Isn't it just a traitor? If you don't let the old lady be happy, I will betray the country and borrow foreign soldiers to beat you, I don't believe that you Xiao Lotian can be so powerful that he can be the enemy of everyone!

This punch really hit Xiao Letian's soft underbelly, that is, this time he went crazy, so that Xiao Letian had to calm down and negotiate with the Manchus in financial negotiations, and half of the bond business was divided.

It was also that successful counterattack of Cixi that made him rise in popularity among the Manchurians, and after washing the decline after the competition with Ci'an, the empress dowager of the two palaces once again fought against each other.

Cixi pinched her long nail sleeve and knocked on the table carelessly...... You guys, a group of men are forcing me to come out as a woman, so embarrassed?

Yi and Cixi cooperated tacitly, of course they would not blush, "Do you work hard! Since Xiao Letian is a grandson monkey that the Jade Emperor can't control, then in the end, the Buddha still has to take action! For the sake of the imperial court for a hundred years, it can only make the Queen Mother work hard!"
