Guo Xing'a has always thought that he has a golden finger and thinks that he has the direction of the overall development direction, so the miscellaneous affairs department only cares about the information related to Guo Xing'a, and does not pay much attention to the major policies of the imperial court. The movements of the imperial court were all seen from the newspapers that Pi Runmin and others specially entrusted to get from the relationship, and many of these newspapers were incomplete, and some of them had expired for a long time. So Guo Xing'a never knew that before he was impeached, there was actually a turmoil in the imperial court.

Xianfeng came to Chengde, completely out of the suggestion of Seng Gelinqin, Su Shun and others just recognized, in fact, most officials in the court were against it. Although Chengde has the status of the second political center, in fact, since the 25th year of Jiaqing, it has been no longer taken seriously, and it is not a very good choice. After all, Chengde is closer to Mongolia, and Xianfeng's long-term stay here is of great benefit to the influence of Mongolian ministries in the imperial court.

But Xianfeng was just a lucky tour in Chengde, and the peace agreement had been reached, so Xianfeng should return to Beijing. Not only did Yixin unite a group of central officials such as Guiliang, Wenxiang, and Shengbao to invite the imperial driver to return to Luan, but officials from other provinces such as Qinglian, the governor of Henan, also invited the imperial driver to return to Beijing. The war has just been eliminated, the country is in turmoil, Xianfeng, as the king of a country, it is better to go home early, at least to calm people's hearts. However, Xianfeng didn't think so, although the foreigners withdrew from Beijing, they only retreated to Tianjin, and did not completely evacuate. Moreover, Yi Xin has become big in Beijing, Xianfeng will not go back to die, he has to deal with Yi Xin's forces in Beijing first, and then study the matter of returning to Beijing. It was at this time that the civil and military officials officially split into two groups, one was the Beijing faction headed by Yi Xin, and the other was the Chengde faction led by Su Shun. Yixin also had people in Chengde, and Sushun also had many cadres in Beijing, and the two factions were only named after the location of the leader.

Of course, most of the officials do not belong to any faction, they are not neutral, but moderate. All of them are only ready to live their own small lives, and they don't want to mix with anything, but Yixin still has good tricks. Xianfeng thinks that he is a "happy person", and he is ready to commit suicide with a beautiful woman in Chengde, and he refuses to return to Beijing even if he dies, Yixin sees it clearly. However, the fact that the Son of Heaven has been stationed abroad for a long time will inevitably cause floating discussions at home and abroad, which is not conducive to the stability of the country. Therefore, Yi Xin used a trick to eliminate the first army, and then pulled some officials who watched the excitement into his camp. Yi Xin's trick is to draw salary from the bottom of the kettle, Xianfeng is not unwilling to return to Beijing! Yi Xin directly suggested moving the capital to Xi'an.

Yi Xin's twists and turns can be said to be reasonable, Xianfeng, who didn't see his brother's chess path clearly, was very moved, and almost really made a decree. Yi Xin first analyzed the disadvantages of Chengde, one of which is that Chengde is located outside the Saiwai, the climate is cold, and the products are scarce, so it is very difficult to support the imperial court for a long time, and it is extremely inconvenient to send materials to Chengde. The second is that the geographical location of Chengde is not good, close to Shanhaiguan and other places, and enemies like the British and French coalition forces can land in Liaoxi from the sea and then attack Chengde. Moreover, this place is close to Mongolia and the Northeast, that is, not far from the Russians, which is really very dangerous. First of all, Xi'an is located in the Guanzhong Plain, and there are four dangers to defend, unlike in Beijing to guard the country. And although China is now full of wolf smoke and the whole country is about to be destroyed, neither the foreigners, the Taiping army, nor the Twist army have invaded Shaanxi, and Shaanxi is almost the only pure land in the Qing Dynasty. Xi'an is the former capital of many dynasties, which has great political significance in China, and if Xianfeng moves the capital to Xi'an, it can also win people's hearts. Moreover, Xi'an has convenient transportation, and it is very convenient for the imperial court to move or transfer materials, and there will not be much Mifei. Yi Xin even made a "Ten Terms for the Western Tour" and arranged the overall plan for moving the capital to Xi'an.

Yixin's move is extremely spicy, if it weren't for Su Shun to mention it on the side, Xianfeng would almost be hit. China's political and economic center has long been inclined to the southeast, although Xi'an has countless benefits, but it is already a remote place, Xianfeng if he really recklessly ran to Xi'an, but it is self-isolated. And once Xianfeng moves westward, Yixin will definitely further control Beijing and Xianfeng, and then the political and economic lifeline will be in Yixin's hands, and he can collude with foreigners in Beijing, and Xianfeng, the son of heaven, will be no different from a puppet. Although Xianfeng did not succeed, a large number of officials still went into the water and attached themselves to Yixin's command. These people were originally watching the excitement, and they were not going to participate in the brotherly dispute between Yixin and Xianfeng, but the westward migration involved their own interests, so they ended up fighting.

Among the three opinions of staying in Chengde for a long time, returning to Luanjing, and moving west to avoid the enemy, the call for moving west was the highest. The current plan of staying in Chengde for a long time was directly rejected by the ministers, and the Mongol faction was originally a minority, and after the defeat of Seng Lingqin, it was not as good as before, so Chengde could only be an expedient measure, and there was no possibility of long-term maintenance. The ministers of Huiluan Jingshi had no opinion, but Xianfeng and Su Shun did not agree. If Yixin is not done, Su Shun naturally refuses to go back, and Xianfeng has to think more about the problem of a minister who does not kneel. So there is only one option left to move west, but of course Su Shun will not go along with Yixin's intentions.

Xianfeng was unable to parry Yi Xin's westward move, but Su Shun backhanded Yi Xin's army, and Su Shun's method was also to draw salary from the bottom of the kettle. Yixin advocated moving westward, and Su Shun also sent cadres to advocate moving westward, but the place was different, Yixin advocated moving west to Xi'an, while Su Shun arranged for people to move west to Taiyuan. not only cut off the team of officials that Yixin had just recruited, but also pulled down another part of the officials who did not go into the water. A large number of officials from Shanxi or inextricably linked with Shanxi all went down and vigorously supported the westward move to Taiyuan. Both sides have abundant reasons, but in fact, what they are fighting for is just a good word, and under the scorching words, what they are winning is just a power word. When it comes to the fundamentals of power, there is nothing to say, and a ball of harmony has turned into shirtless. For a while, the imperial court seemed to have entered the years of party strife, and the two factions were repeatedly strangled and quarreled, and Yixin's clever move to the west was shelved. The Beijing faction, which had originally grown through the proposal of moving westward, was suddenly split into the Xi'an faction and the Taiyuan faction, and Su Shun used a trick to keep Xianfeng sitting firmly in Diaoyutai.

The court discussion didn't work, so Yi Xin fought back in another way, which was the impeachment of Guo Xing'a, but this time his sword was too powerful. Although the attack on Guoxing'a was brought up by Baojun, and it was only with the acquisition of Guoxing'a's arms production technology as a bait that Yixin was moved. But in fact, Yi Xin himself did not have this kind of thought, his political struggle with Xianfeng fell into a predicament, Xianfeng occupied the advantage of imperial power, the longer it dragged on, the more beneficial it was for Xianfeng, and Yi Xin was not to miss the opportunity and never come again, he was eager to break this deadlock. When all conventional means cannot achieve results, Yixin can only make dangerous moves, and the most suitable person is Guo Xing'a.

Guoxing's young man is proud, and there is a strange toughness in his personality, so once Xianfeng takes drastic measures against Guoxing'a, Guoxing's backlash will definitely be more intense. Yi Xin knows his emperor brother very well, he does not have the qualifications to be a Dao Ming Jun, and he will definitely deal with Guo Xing'a in a drastic way, and Bao Jun's attack on Guo Xing'a will inevitably lead to a complete break between the two. Supporting Bao Jun is not only possible to obtain the secret skills of a strong army, but also to further envelop Bao Jun, but the most important thing is to stimulate Guo Xing'a, Yi Xin has fantasized countless times about Guo Xing'a and Xianfeng's tearing picture. Guoxing's foundation is too shallow, and the structure of his own subordinates is also very problematic, so Guoxing'a has no ability to stand on his own, and once he breaks with Xianfeng, Guoxing'a has no choice but to support Yixin.

Yi Xin, who was closely monitoring Chengde, finally waited for the scene of Guo Xing'a and Xianfeng's soldiers, but he never expected Guo Xing'a to be so strong. Chunyou's Rehe garrison and Xianfeng's escort soldiers and horses were like paper paste in front of Guo Xing'a, and Guo Xing'a actually restrained Xianfeng in an instant. Moreover, Baojun's affairs were very unfavorable, giving Xianfeng and Guoxinga a chance to reconcile, and the great opportunity slipped away again.

The two sides had a very harmonious time during the Spring Festival, but Xianfeng was not a vegetarian, and he immediately returned the color to Yixin after the New Year, and he had the ability to kill the enemy with one blow. Although Yixin has many henchmen, but in the court dispute, Xianfeng has the absolute initiative, unless all the officials resolutely support Yixin, otherwise Yixin will never want to defeat Xianfeng in the court. Yi Xin wants to win Xianfeng, only to take risks and solve Xianfeng with a thunderous blow. And the only person in Jingshi who can help Yixin do this, that is, Seungbo, who is in charge of Gyeonggi's defense. The confrontation with Guoxing'a made Xianfeng deeply realize the strength of the army, so Shengbao became Xianfeng's primary target for differentiation.

The core troops under Shengbao's command are the more than 5,000 people he brought back from Bali Bridge, as well as the more than 10,000 soldiers and horses of King Qin collected during the period of presiding over the defense of the Beijing Division, and the other miscellaneous troops are not worth mentioning at all. Therefore, as soon as spring began, Xianfeng immediately ordered the elite 5,000 of the Shengbao branch to give Monk Greenqin to Shandong to exterminate the bandits. Before it was time to tear his face, Shengbao didn't dare to resist the decree and disrespect, so he could only obediently hand over five thousand elites. Katsuho was a man of civilian origin, and although these troops were close to him, they did not have a particularly deep friendship. Katsuho may be coerced into making trouble with these people, but these people will never live and die with Katsuho without knowing the inside story. Monk Lingqin is a veteran general in the army, and his prestige has always been very high, and it is easy to subdue these troops.

After dividing Shengbao's soldiers, Xianfeng couldn't tolerate Shengbao continuing to stay in Jingshi at all, so Seng Lingqin took away Shengbao's 5,000 elites. Xianfeng immediately issued an order to get out of Beijing and go to the border between Zhili and Shandong to fortify. It was after Shengbao was transferred out of Beijing that Xianfeng arranged for Guo Xing'a to go to the Northeast. Originally, Xianfeng's arrangement had solved the two hidden dangers of Yixin and Guoxing'a, but unfortunately the changes were always faster than planned.

Shengbao, the often defeated general, actually took shit luck, and just left Beijing in despair, and a five-million jackpot fell on his head. Song Jingshi's Black Flag Army, which was trapped in Luxi, had more than 10,000 people, and the whole group accepted Shengbao's recruitment and surrendered to Shengbao. Shengbao did not move a single soldier, and after two sentences of red mouth and white teeth, he recovered six county towns such as Qiu County, Guantao, Guan County, Xin County, Chaocheng, and Guancheng, and even collected more than 10,000 elite soldiers.

Xianfeng's plot to drive Shengbao to Jiangnan step by step was completely disrupted, and Guoxing, who was originally going to be sent to the Great Northern Wilderness, of course couldn't go. Xianfeng believes that between himself and Yixin, Guo Xing'a still supports him, and now Shengbao is inexplicably bigger, Xianfeng needs Guo Xing'a to stay and protect him. With the presence of the Gu'an army in Goxinga, any threat of force will become a joke. The news that Guo Xing'a found in the Di newspaper was that Shengbao had tens of thousands of troops and flaunted his might at the junction of Zhili and Shandong.

Guo Xing'a, who just wanted to get out early, was worried about when he would be able to leave, but someone came to the palace again, and Concubine Yi wanted to invite him to eat alone.
