In view of the unanimous favor of the ministers of the court and the ministers of the court for Pu Jun, coupled with Li Lianying's kind words in front of the Empress Dowager Cixi, the Empress Dowager Cixi was a little moved, and she decided to ask the Minister of Military Aircraft for her opinion.

She originally thought that there would be people in the military aircraft who opposed Li Pujun as the eldest brother, but the matter was beyond her expectations, and the Minister of Military Aircraft almost unanimously agreed, except for Rong Lu, although he did not approve, but he did not express opposition.

This made the Empress Dowager Cixi a little happy, and it seemed that it was the will of heaven to establish Pujun. She issued an edict: on the 24th day of the lunar month, the ministers of the princes of the near branches, the ministers of the imperial front, the ministers of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the masters of the south study and the upper study room, and the Manchu Han Shangshu of the ministry went to the Yiluan Hall to wait for the decree.

When the Empress Dowager Cixi arrived at the Deyi Luan Palace, the emperor and other officials had already arrived.

The Empress Dowager Cixi looked at the ministers below, then looked at Pu Jun who was kneeling in front of the imperial case, turned her head sideways and said to Emperor Guangxu: "What about the edict?" ”

The edict had been prepared a long time ago, and when Emperor Guangxu heard the Empress Dowager Cixi's question, he took out the edict from his body expressionlessly, and said to ****** Yixuan, who was standing in front:

"******, you read it!"

After receiving the edict, he kowtowed to Emperor Guangxu and Empress Dowager Cixi, then stood up, stood aside in front of the throne, and began to read in front of the ministers kneeling below:

"I Chongling entered the unification, admired the queen mother's curtain training, diligent teachings, exhaustive details, after the government, the times are difficult, eager to inspire the governance, and repay kindness; That is, the emperor entrusted by Emperor Mu Zongyi.

Since the last book, the gas has violated the harmony, the government is complicated, and the times are subordinate. However, I thought of the sect and the heavy, and had called on the queen mother to train the government, more than a year, I had not recovered, and the suburbs of the temple were all worshipped, and they did not refrain from doing it in person.

The current affairs are difficult, looking up to the deep palace and worrying about the liver, not to be spared, bowing to the province, and sleeping and eating. Tracing back to the difficulties created by our ancestors, I am deeply afraid of the burden. And at the beginning of the succession, he was ordered by the Empress Dowager to have a prince, that is, to inherit Emperor Mu Zongyi as the heir, and the system is of great importance; Thinking about this, if there is no place to be ashamed, how can all diseases be cured?

Because of the repetition of the Holy Mercy, he was close to the clan to be cautious and virtuous, and set up an heir for Emperor Mu Zongyi, thinking that it would be the realm of unification in the future. pleaded again and again, but was first allowed to accept Pu Jun, the son of Zaiyi, the king of Doluoduanjun, to inherit Emperor Mu Zongyi as his son.

Qin Fengyi's decree, fortunately inexplicable, respectfully admiring the mercy and training, and sealing the son of Yi Pu Jun as the prince. Make this encyclical known. ”

After reciting the edict, he put the edict back on the imperial case, and then kowtowed and returned to his place.

After Emperor Guangxu waited for King Qing to return to his position, he took off the red velvet knotted mink hat on his head and put it on Pu Jun with his own hands.

Pu Jun, who was kneeling in front, waited for Emperor Guangxu to put on his hat, kowtowed to Emperor Guangxu three times to thank him, and then turned his head to the Empress Dowager Cixi who was sitting above and made the same big salute.

After speaking, he took the lead in kowtowing, and the rest of the ministers also kowtowed. For a while, only the voice of "Congratulations to Lafayette" was heard in the hall.

Listening and watching all this, the Empress Dowager Cixi couldn't help but be overjoyed. She breathed a sigh of relief, and the eldest brother finally stood up.

As soon as the New Year passed, the power of the Boxers developed more and more, before, it was only in Shandong, but due to Yuan Shikai's suppression in Shandong, the Boxers were forced to move north to Zhili and Tianjin, and the development in the Zhili area was very prosperous.

In the Boxer Rebellion, there were two of the most powerful, one was Zhang Decheng and the other was Cao Futian.

Zhang Decheng was originally Zhu Honglantern's subordinate, and later Zhu Honglan was first in charge, and was killed soon after, Zhang Decheng fled to Zhili and pulled up people, but the growth of his power still relied on one person, this person was Li Laizhong, who persuaded Zhu Honglan to play the banner of "Fu Qing and extinguish the foreign".

As soon as the banner of "Fuqing and Extinguishing the Foreigners" was raised, he was immediately sheltered by Yuxian, the governor of Shandong, who changed the name "Yihequan" to "Yihetuan" under the pretext that Yihequan was a loyal and righteous person, and at the same time allowed the use of the yellow flag with the character "Yu".

At the beginning, after Li Laizhong persuaded Zhu Honglan to play the banner of "helping the Qing Dynasty and extinguishing the foreign", he was treated very well by Yuxian and was sheltered by Yuxian, but later due to the strong protest of foreign ministers, the Qing government was forced to remove Yuxian and replace him with Yuan Shikai, a waiter of the Ministry of Works.

The Boxers slaughtered the people in Shandong and repeatedly created lesson plans. The foreign envoys intervened and demanded severe punishment for the righteous and fist.

However, Yuxian, the governor of Shandong at that time, was supposed to take over the former governor Li Bingheng, who was removed for protecting the people, but he didn't want him to protect Yihequan after he took office. In response to the actions of the Boxers in Shandong, the imperial court decided to adopt the method of suppression, in order to avoid intensifying the contradictions with various countries.

The imperial court was sent by Yuan Shikai to send the general soldier Jiang Guidi to lead the 11,000 people of the Wuwei Right Army into Dezhou at the junction of Shandong and Hebei.

However, the "Boxers" did not reassure the Boxers because of the defeat of the plains, and some of them knew that Yuxian was actually sympathetic to the Boxers.

"Boxer" and "Red Lantern Shine" are a type of White Lotus Sect.

The White Lotus Sect has always been a non-governmental organization active in Hebei and Shandong, and it is generally hidden in the world, out of troubled times. There have been several troubles in the history of the Qing Dynasty.

In the 39th year of Qianlong, Wang Lun, a religious citizen of Shouzhang, Shandong, called on his followers to raise an incident by treating people and practicing boxing, which soon evolved into a war between the people and the officers and soldiers of the three provinces.

During the Jiaqing period, the imperial court encircled and suppressed the parishioners on a large scale, and it took several years to finally suppress them, but a large part of the parishioners were still hidden. It was not until the eighteenth year of Jiaqing that there was a "change in Lin Qing" that shocked the palace, and the White Lotus Sect talked about it for a while, which made the listeners change color.

Later, the White Lotus Sect gradually evolved into the Bagua Sect, and the Bagua Sect was divided into eight factions, among which the most powerful were the "Qianzi Boxing" and "Kunzi Boxing", and the Lin Qing in the "Lin Qing's Change" was the Kunzi Boxing.

Qianziquan is the remnant of the Hexagram Sect, which advocates fire, so Qianziquan is also superstitious and red. A man named Zhu Honglan appeared in Qianziquan, who organized an organization called "Yihehui", which was later changed to "Yihequan".

However, the White Lotus Sect has never been suppressed, and in places where corrupt officials and cruel officials are rampant, the White Lotus Sect is secretly circulating, waiting for an opportunity to make trouble.

In recent years, foreign religion has also become increasingly popular in China, and some people who believe in foreign religions rely on the protection of foreign missionaries to run rampant in the countryside, flesh and blood people, so that there is a contradiction between the White Lotus Religion and the foreign religion.

The most famous of these incidents was the "Tianjin Teaching Case" handled by Zeng Wenzhenggong, which led to the dismissal of many officials. (To be continued.) )
