"Pro-noble assembly...... Well, did the negotiation come to an end? ”

Although it has just been determined that "the great position has been vacant", when Cixi asked this sentence, her heart still involuntarily lifted slightly. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

"Nope." Guan Zhuofan shook his head, "However, this meeting, with its ups and downs, twists and turns, Rong Chen slowly returned to the Queen Mother. ”

"Say it."

"Earlier, Emperor Mu Zongyi's 'seeing joy' can also be used as a pretext to disturb the 'retreat' of the Queen Mother, and he will not report it; however, the 'great walk' is not as good as 'seeing joy', regardless of whether the Queen Mother is 'meditating' or not, how can he hide it and not report it? However, at that time, the Queen Mother was ...... Well, at the critical time of production, no matter what, the minister will have to delay a few more days before ...... Uh, this, this, how to drag out this day, the minister has to find a reason to come out, above the meeting, and give an explanation to everyone. ”

Cixi's face flushed, and she said softly, "This is really a ...... Puzzle. ”

"The minister said," Guan Zhuofan said, "Originally, Tianjin and Beijing have already communicated telegrams, and the news is reachable instantly, but this news, no more than others, is not only to know that the Empress Dowager Daxing Emperor has been able to control the guests, but also to comfort the mercy, but also to explain the cause and effect, one by one, so you can't just take a telegram, you must have one or two relatives and noble ministers, gallop to the Tianjin Palace, and play in front of the Empress Dowager, so that it is appropriate." ”

"This ...... That's right......"

"This 'one or two noble ministers'," Guan Zhuofan said, "Although the minister did not say who it was, everyone knew that it must be counted as one of the ministers, but for a while, the ministers couldn't leave, and this matter could be temporarily delayed." ”

"Hmm."

"This is the first item on the agenda." Guan Zhuofan said, "The second agenda is to determine: to discuss the heir of the emperor, whether to wait for the 'first and second noble ministers' to face the Queen Mother, and the Queen Mother of the Mother Mary, and then hold the discussion, or not wait for mercy and hold the discussion now?" ”

Cixi's heart jumped.

"Park An was the first to speak......"

Strange, why does he always call Lao Qi to be "Pu'an"?

Even if he suspected that Lao Qi sent someone to assassinate him, and he didn't want to pretend to Lao Qi anymore, but "King of Alcohol" was just Lao Qi's title, and it was not an honorific title.

What Cixi didn't expect was that Guan Zhuofan called Lao Qi "Pu'an" because of his "fake words", otherwise, he should be called "Yiyun".

"He said," said Kwan Zhuofan, "'The country cannot be without a king for a day! We can't wait for Tianjin's letter here, since everyone has arrived, we should start a discussion immediately! ’”

Cixi raised her eyebrows slightly and snorted softly.

However, Yiyun's words, although they didn't sound very comfortable, were "right" in the end, so she didn't say much.

"No one has any objections to Pu'an's words, but-"

Speaking of this, Guan Zhuofan frowned, "Next, what he said is a little ...... It's appalling. ”

Appalling?

"What did he say?"

"He said, 'The situation under the Queen Mother is not suitable to come forward to preside over the establishment of the Emperor!' Therefore, you can't wait, you don't have to wait! ’”

This breath, like taking gunpowder, makes people listen to it more and more uncomfortable, but it doesn't seem to be "appalling"?

Guan Zhuofan's words are not finished:

"I said, 'At present, the situation of the Queen Mother is indeed inappropriate to intervene in the government affairs, but the appointment of the heir emperor is not an ordinary court government, and the most important thing is to pray for the blessing of Emperor Wen Zongxian, which has the right to ...... it.'"

Well, it's better to listen to what you say.

Kindness is very comforting, very comforting.

"I didn't finish my sentence," Guan Zhuofan continued, "so I interrupted him, and he said, 'That's not what I meant!' ’”

So what does he mean?

Guan Zhuofan looked hesitant, paused for a moment, and finally said his words:

"Pu An said, 'The collapse of Emperor Daxing is because of which kind of 'evil poison' he was contaminated with, it is still unclear! It is still unknown whether the Queen Mother will be held responsible! Therefore, she wants to avoid suspicion! Therefore, she cannot preside over the establishment of the emperor! ’”

Sure enough, "appalling"!

Cixi's face changed!

"What do you mean by Seven?" Cixi frowned, trying to suppress her anger, "Did he say that Emperor Muzong's 'smallpox joy', I failed to prepare in advance, and I prevented it from happening, I'm a mother...... Dereliction of duty?! ”

Guan Zhuofan was stunned, uh, Lao Qi didn't mean that, and I didn't mean that......

Without waiting for Guan Zhuofan to "return to the Queen Mother's words", Cixi said to herself:

"'Smallpox'...... 'contained in fetal poison', this, 'subject to heaven'! It's not something that can be forced by manpower! Of course, if Emperor Muzong had been infected with pox when he was young, he might have escaped this catastrophe today, but how troublesome and dangerous is it to 'plant pox'? Emperor Wenzong is such a lone seedling as Emperor Muzong, the system of the Qing Dynasty! 'Plant pox' for him, in case...... Who can afford this responsibility? - Emperor Wenzong can't afford this responsibility! ”

After a pause, "Besides, when Emperor Muzong was young, hmph, at that time, I was a concubine, and whether I 'planted pox' for the eldest brother or not, can I do the master's thing?" That's the Emperor and the Queen's business! ”

Well, what you said is reasonable, even if you want to find someone to top the tank, you can only find Emperor Wen Zongxian and the Queen Mother.

Also, it seems that you have been mixed with Kusumoto Rice for so many days, although you have been in contact with some "Western studies", but it seems that smallpox is not included in it, fortunately, fortunately.

"Lao Qi said that," Cixi gritted her teeth slightly, "Is it that people are too stupid to understand this truth?" Or are people too smart, this ...... What about ulterior motives? ”

"I'm just afraid...... It's too smart. ”

Cixi's eyes flashed: "What do you say?" ”

"Pu An's words," Guan Zhuofan said slowly, "actually didn't mean what the Queen Mother said. ”

Cixi was slightly stunned: "What does that mean?" ”

Okay, I'm not going around in circles anymore - this circle, it's been going around for too long.

"What does he mean—" Guan Zhuofan's expression was solemn, "Right now, there is a rumor outside, saying that since the 'evil poison' on Emperor Muzong's body, since it is not 'passed' by the palace people, it can only be ......"

He took a slight breath and finished the sentence: "'Passed' my own parents." ”

What does Guan Zhuofan mean by this, at the beginning, Cixi didn't react, just frowned slightly; When he reacted, he couldn't help but be shocked: "What? Emperor Muzong's 'evil poison' ...... 'pass' from Emperor Wenzong? ”

Guan Zhuofan was stunned.

Up to now, Cixi still has no thoughts about "evil poison" related to herself.

In an instant, Guan Zhuofan had a deep sense of disgust for himself - disgusted with the "most poisonous and worst" self.

I really want to ...... Framing this woman to death? This trusts oneself and relies on oneself...... A woman who loves herself?

I......

I'm ......****** what a ...... Bastard.

Guan Zhuofan's expression made Cixi think that she had guessed correctly, so she raised her eyebrows and worked hard to "brush" this matter:

"If it's Emperor Wenzong...... Well, in the year of Xinyou, after arriving in Rehe, Sushun, Zaiyuan, and Duanhua led Emperor Wenzong everywhere...... Uh, 'Wild Food', at that time, there was a real possibility of getting dirty......"

After a pause, "However, at that time, Emperor Muzong was several years old, and he was about to 'go to the study'...... If it was Emperor Wenzong, then ...... It can only be before I gave birth to Emperor Muzong......"

Speaking of which, I was startled first: this ...... You won't "pass" me, will you?

This was the first time that Cixi had associated "evil poison" with herself.

However, she immediately dismissed the idea: "No, no...... Emperor Wenzong has so many concubines, none of them have anything to do, how can they ......"

Cixi's thinking is clear.

After that, she looked at Guan Zhuofan with a puzzled look.

"The Queen Mother is right," Guan Zhuofan's voice was extremely difficult, "Actually, at the moment, the discussion outside is roughly there...... It is said that Emperor Muzong's evil poison is not 'over' from Emperor Wenzong. ”

"But didn't you say, uh, 'by' your own parents?"

Guan Zhuofan was silent.

Cixi waited for a while, but Guan Zhuofan still didn't speak.

"What's going on......"

She stared at Guan Zhuofan, his expression was strange......

Cixi's heart trembled inexplicably.

No, what do I think, can't be so ridiculous......

But......

No, no, no!

Impossible!

However, irresistibly, in my mind, that absurd and terrifying thought slowly emerged, becoming clearer and more hideous.

Cixi felt that the blood on her body was slowly cold and condensed.

Her lips quivered, "You mean...... I? ”

It's hard to find the right pen and ink to describe Guan Zhuofan's current expression.

It was a kind of "expressionlessness", but under the "expressionlessness", every nerve on his face seemed to be beating slightly.

"You...... Believe? ”

Guan Zhuofan did not answer.

That's what it is...... Defaulted.

Cixi only felt that there was a slight "buzz" in her head, and then her eyes went black and she fainted.

*

“…… Dowager! Dowager! ……”

A faint, familiar voice was heard in the distance.

She slowly opened her eyes, and his anxious face was right in front of her.

Guan Zhuofan knelt down on one knee in front of him, and his right hand put his two hands together, grasping firmly.

Well, I didn't fall, he ...... Caught me.

Cixi's lips moved slightly, and then she smiled sadly.

This smile was like a knife, pulling hard in Guan Zhuofan's heart.

Cixi's tears flowed silently.

Guan Zhuofan wanted to wipe her tears, but Cixi's whole person was soft, and he felt that as soon as he let go, she would immediately go limp.

Cixi's tears flowed more and more, but after a short while, she convulsed all over.

Finally, let out a loud howl.

Guan Zhuofan can't control himself anymore: damn it, Lao Tzu won't be the "most poisonous and worst" "me" anymore!
