Cixi knew why Guan Zhuofan would support the opposing line of Gong Wang, Wen Xiang, and Bao Jun in the selection of ministers of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.
Of course, she only guessed half of Guan Zhuofan's mind - to save finances for the country; The other half of the mind - forcing herself to rely on him for personal expenses, no matter how smart the royal sister is, she can't think of this.
In fact, on the issue of the Internal Affairs Office, Cixi was quite weak-minded, and she didn't think that there was anything wrong with Guan Zhuofan's attitude, and reasoned to tell her: What he did was indeed "right". Therefore, on this issue before, as long as Guan Zhuofan insisted, Cixi immediately retreated.
However, just like a family, both husband and wife will compete for the dominance of finances, even if she lacks confidence, she can't help but try to fight.
But how can we fight?
She can't say that the Ministry of Internal Affairs is more important than the Prime Minister's National Affairs Yamen!
For a while, there was nothing to do.
Forget it, the matter of the sixth child, let's put it on the table, clean up the treasure first, and then say, it won't be bad if he can open the mouth there.
"Okay, the sixth child's business, just do as you say - and let him go! Well, what should this prime minister's national affairs yamen do...... Conditioning, you go down and write me a note. ”
"Conditioning"? It's an interesting word.
"Yes, the minister will do his best to handle it."
"So—what about the Bo Jun? This man is hateful, and he must not be indulged! ”
"Yes, Bao Jun is not the sixth master. The disposal is of course different. Just ......"
"Are you 'just' again? I say. How did you become like your queen mother, mother-in-law, mother-in-law, soft? Do something, give a word...... It's not as happy as a woman! ”
"Uh, the Queen Mother's daughter, Yao Shun...... Women heroes, how can the ministers get it? ”
Some people have long touted Cixi with the "female middle Yao Shun", but the hat of "Heroine" was brought by Guan Zhuofan to the royal sister when the military parade at sea and the "Champion" were performed a few days ago.
Cixi glanced at Guan Zhuofan. "Gege" smiled and said, "Don't shoot, beware of me kicking you!" Okay, tell me about your 'just'! ”
If the words are regrettable, they are actually very happy.
You kick me? Then you don't become a small-female-horse......
"Yes. Although Lihai's confession involved Bao Jun, when Bao Jun and the fifth master met, there was no third person at the scene, and he was in the identity of the fifth master...... No matter how ridiculous he is, it is not easy to inquire directly. So ......"
"So, Bao Jun and Lao Wu secretly discussed something. Never proved? ”
"Queen Mother Shengming."
"Hmph, then 'inquire' Baojun!"
"Queen Mother...... Said angry. However, the minister had the courage to make a guess - without the court's 'inquiry', Baojun would take the initiative to say something. ”
"Oh? What could he say? ”
"This-the minister is not easy to guess, but it is probably nothing more than self-impeachment and self-purification."
"'Seeking self-purity through self-impeachment'?"
"Yes, the minister thinks that if Baojun wants to do this, it should be a matter of the next two days - otherwise, the court will come to the door and he will say, no matter what he says, it will be too late."
"Then we're going to wait?"
"Yes, it's just a day and a half of work. Perhaps, in this situation, Bao Jun's excerpts have been passed into the internal affairs office - if this is the case, then ...... It is even more important to listen to the meaning of the Queen Mother first. ”
"Hmph, it's your 'Queen Mother' again......"
"The heart of the minister, the queen mother knows."
The autumn water-like eye waves of the royal sister circled around Guan Zhuofan's body and fell down.
"Okay, don't think about it, your heart ...... I know. ”
For a moment, both of them were speechless, and warm ripples slowly rippled in the room.
After a while, Guan Zhuofan broke the silence: "Don't worry, Queen Mother, no matter what, you can't ask someone to stay in the military aircraft anymore." ”
"This ...... It's pretty much the same. However, if the 'easterners' are soft-hearted and can't get any big tricks from him, it won't be easy to drive him out of the military plane, right? ”
"Minister...... Do all in one's power. ”
"Hmm."
"Does the Queen Mother have any other instructions?"
"Hmm...... Without. ”
"The minister drafted a telegram and prepared to submit it to the Imperial Review."
"Well, I'...... Waiting for you. ”
Next door to Cixi's bedroom is the study, with a full set of four treasures of the study, Guan Zhuofan borrowed this place to draft the message, and Yu'er was responsible for serving the pen and ink.
After returning from the naval parade, every time she saw Guan Zhuofan, the little girl would have a red cloud and big eyes, giving birth to strange changes: like a cloud of water vapor, holding a light source, the more hazy and bright.
However, time was too short for the two of them to say a word, and the huge study was extremely quiet, except for the slight sound of breathing, the rustling of paper, and the rustling of goose quill pens.
In a short time, the message had been prepared, much faster than yesterday's one. First, I already have yesterday's experience; Second, from yesterday to today, Guan Zhuofan has been thinking about this all day, including on the way to the Guangang Palace, and he is also making the draft of the telegram.
Guan Zhuofan asked Cixi to read it, and changed a few words, which was very appropriate.
He was about to say goodbye—here in the Guangang Palace, Cixi would never ask him to "kneel down"—Cixi spoke first: "This telegram, when it is taken, do you want you to look at it on the side?" ”
Guan Zhuofan was stunned for a moment and said: "Back to the Queen Mother, this is not necessary, just hand it over to the telegraph operator." ”
Cixi nodded and said, "Wouldn't it be better to seal the telegram, hand it over to Túrin, and bring it back to the small station?" You don't have to go back and forth yourself. ”
What the?!
"Uh, this, ......"
"The message was handed over to Túrin, is there anything you don't feel comfortable with?"
"Back to the Queen Mother, there is nothing to worry about......"
"I think so, a qiē confidential order, isn't it just a ...... Oh, 'heralds'—is it coming and going? I mean, you're really tired - you haven't slept since you came out of the post yesterday, haven't you? You're here with me, rest, and sleep! Now that it's all over at the beginning, you go back to the barracks—I know, the barracks are about to blow the 'wake up horn,' and you won't be able to sleep." ”
What the?! What the?! What the?!
"Minister...... Don't dare to trespass. ”
The royal sister's gaze was very soft: "Zhuo Fan, don't think so much, I don't have so many fancy intestines, this ...... It's not to tempt you...... That's it...... It's too hard to feel sorry for you! If we want to talk about trespassing, we will have to go back to Luan in a few days, and when we return to Beijing, we will hardly have a chance to 'trespass' again! ”
Depend on! Damn, rely on ......
Guan Zhuofan shouted in his heart: Sister, should I believe your words?
