Chapter 318: Decadent Youth Xianfeng

In the Qing Dynasty, except for Beijing and other giant cities, other cities were not large, and the famous Ningyuan City was only about six miles in radius. So it's common to meet two acquaintances in Chengde City, but it's still very unexpected when your acquaintance is the emperor.

Xianfeng's sudden appearance in such a humble tavern is a king-size miracle for anyone. This kind of fly hall suddenly appeared in the Ninety-Five, and the ancestral tomb of Liu Laoer's family was not only smoking, but it was definitely the oil under the coffin board. And Xianfeng's physique that has to slow down for half a day to run two steps, and it is also a miracle of life to be able to walk out of the palace gate. So Guo Xing'a didn't expect that Xianfeng would have a private visit at all, and when he suddenly met him, he subconsciously got up and made a big salute.

"Old five, it's not at home, you just sit. I met my brother-in-law outside, so I don't have to make such a big ceremony! Guo Xing A just got together, and with Xianfeng's words, someone around Xianfeng went over to block Guo Xing A and let Guo Xing A sit down.

"It's you!" Guo Xing'a also didn't expect that the relatives of Concubine Yi who were accompanying Xianfeng would also be by his side.

"Fifth uncle, sit down! The master explained, everything is simple, and the identity must not be omitted! "Rong Lu is actually quite good-looking, and the young man is quite energetic, but Guo Xing'a always feels that he has a flattering expression on his face.

"Brother-in-law, why did you come out, when it was warm and cold, you should rest in the house for a long time, it's terrible to suffer from the wind and cold!" Xianfeng had already prescribed the title, and Guo Xing'a could only call out one brother-in-law.

"Ahh It's okay, it's spring, I'm out for a walk! Xianfeng casually said an excuse that everyone knew was perfunctory. Xianfeng really didn't leave the palace for a big deal, but he didn't want to talk to Guo Xing'a, especially when he had just emphasized his brother-in-law's identity.

Xianfeng ascended to the throne at the most brilliant age of his life, and like most people at that age, he had dreams and worked hard for his dreams. Ordinary people's dream is to achieve a career, Xianfeng's dream is, of course, to be a generation of Mingjun, and he has indeed worked hard. However, he does not have the ability of Kangxi and Yongzheng, and his luck has declined to the extreme. Since the day he ascended the throne, the internal and external troubles of the Qing Dynasty have worsened day by day, and the Son of Heaven has not been peaceful for ten years. The internal and external situation that was not as good as day by day, and the increasingly bad official style and government quickly polished Xianfeng's vigor to work hard and revitalize the Qing Dynasty. Just like most ordinary young people, after encountering setbacks and unable to get out of the predicament, Xianfeng became decadent and bowed to fate. He became obsessed with a life of indulgence and drunkenness in order to escape the harsh reality. After the British and French forces forced him to abandon the country and flee, Xianfeng's spirit almost collapsed, he was powerless to change anything, he just wanted to escape from reality, and even to the point of committing suicide as a drunken woman.

Emperor Xianfeng indulged in wine, whether it was the queen or Concubine Yi, he naturally would not sit idly by. Concubine Yi fought several times by herself, and even encouraged the empress to persuade Emperor Xianfeng on the grounds of protecting the emperor's body and national government affairs many times. Emperor Xianfeng has always respected the queen in the middle palace, and the queen's "tactful advice" was initially acceptable.

But this three-minute heat can't last at all, and in a few days, Xianfeng will relapse again, and he is still doing his own thing. First, everyone has inertia, and Xianfeng's nature of pursuing sound and color is even more difficult to change. Second, the situation at home and abroad and the government and state affairs have not only not improved, but have become worse and worse, and there is almost no hopelessness, and there is really no hope for the prosperity of the country. In this case, it is more realistic to be crooked and have fun in time.

Xianfeng's wife group members are also the queen Niu Hulu, Yi Guifei Nala, Li Fei Tatara and Wan Concubine, Mei Concubine, Qi Concubine, Ji Guiren, Xuan Guiren, Xi Guiren, Qing Guiren, Rong Guiren, Yu Guiren, Xuan Guiren and other concubines. Although there are a lot of people, most of them are selected by the draft, and they pay attention to the priority of virtue and the family, and they also deliberately avoid the type that may be bewitching and seducing. said that these people are the winners of the ugly contest, some of them are immoral, but their appearance is really not flattering, Yi Guifei and Concubine Li are rare beauties among them, and the others are basically impossible to see. Xianfeng is a very good woman, so she naturally can't stay in this palace, so she naturally wants to go out of the palace to pursue a real beauty.

Xianfeng wants to find beautiful women, and the proportion of Han people must be larger. One is that the population base of the banner people is small, and the family rules are large, Xianfeng's chance of coming into contact with the banner women is relatively small, while the Han people are relatively easy. Second, there are more beauties of the Han people than the beauties of the flag people, and Xianfeng is tired of the flag people in the palace, so he naturally prefers the Han people.

When Xianfeng was in Beijing, he had already developed a large number of Han lovers, the most famous of which was the Four Springs of the Old Summer Palace. Although Xianfeng loves these women for ten minutes, because there are banners and Han are not allowed to intermarry, and there is already an ancestral system where small-footed women are not allowed to enter the palace, Xianfeng has no way to bring these Han women with bound feet into the palace. The reason why the Qing Dynasty has this ancestral system is because when the Qing Dynasty was opened, there was such a willful son of heaven.

As early as the beginning of the Qing Dynasty's entry into the Central Plains, the wayward Shunzhi Emperor had accepted Han women Shi, Chen, Tang, and Yang. His mother, the Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang, was worried that the Shunzhi Emperor was not yet an adult, and would be injured by the premature infatuation with women, and more importantly, the Manchurian and Mongolian women had no strength to compete with the Han women. "It is precisely because of this ancestral system that Xianfeng can only keep his beloved no one outside the palace. When I was in Beijing, I had to arrange another place in Chengde.

After arriving in Chengde, Xianfeng was depressed all day long, extremely bored, and extremely upset, so he personally wrote the banner of the imperial book "and the happy Taoist people", and ordered people to hang in the palace. It may be due to self-mockery of inaction, but it also shows the decadence and decadence of its spirit. Empress Niu Hulu thought that this would greatly damage the emperor's virtue, and while admonishing him, he personally urged the servants to remove the banners. But the words are easy to take away, but the emperor's heart is difficult to recover, and the conflict with Guoxing'a is almost the essence of Xianfeng squeezed out of the bone marrow.

Xianfeng needs to face many charming women inside and outside the palace, and his private life is almost unrestrained, "he is dying, and his body is weak for a long time", he is dizzy, has back pain, weak legs, and is weak, and begins to step into the dangerous road of merry ghosts. When he was in Beijing, whenever the Temple of Heaven, the Temple of Earth, the Sheji Altar or the Taimiao Festival, Xianfeng often lost his honor because he was worried about the weakness of his legs and feet, and he fell down when he raised and lowered the treasure chariot or went up and down the steps, so he did not dare to come in person, so he could only send Prince Gong to do it for him. After arriving in Chengde, internal and external troubles came together, and the body became worse and worse, and he suffered from vomiting blood. But Xianfeng adheres to the basic principle that he would rather die among the flowers and be free is his life, and he still ran out while coughing up blood, and today he came out to meet a Shanxi widow surnamed Cao.

Widow Cao is quite beautiful, and her feet are particularly slender, only three inches, which is really a veritable three-inch golden lotus. And people not only have extra-small, but also have their own patterns, people's shoes "with vegetable jade as the bottom, lined with incense crumbs", even more distinctive, Xianfeng is no longer a favor Zhenglong, it is simply fascinated.

After Guo Xing'a was impeached, Xianfeng can be said to have gone to a big trouble, not only Guo Xing'a is no longer his enemy, but also a strong enemy to Yixin. So Xianfeng, who is in a good mood, has been very busy in recent days, taking care of the Han beauties outside during the day, and taking care of the rain and dew in the palace at night, which is even more tiring than triathlon. Today he went to Widow Cao's early in the morning, and returned after lunch, and happened to see Guoxing's horse outside the store, so he touched it.

Goxing Ana's mount, which is half a head taller than a person, is the same as his ID card, and there is no one in the Rehe officialdom who does not know him. And there is no way for others to imitate it, these Yanmars are so tall that they are not like words, and they are really not sold in ordinary places. And this kind of pretty horse, which is only suitable for short-distance use, is really not very practical. But it's really easy to recognize, as soon as Xianfeng passed by the door, he knew that Guo Xing'a was here.

"Why did you come here to eat and drink? You kid don't lack money now, so you won't be so picky! Xianfeng didn't want to think about it, so he directly diverted the topic.

"I eat simply, I don't pick a place, just to the taste! I really like this braised beef, so I always come here to eat it. Guo Xing'a was thinking about arranging the miscellaneous affairs department to check Xianfeng, and he told the truth.

"Well, that's good!" Xianfeng directly grabbed a piece of beef with his hand and put it in his mouth to chew.

"Brother-in-law, the things outside are not clean!" Xianfeng's bite is not simple, the emperor can't easily eat things outside, not to mention major events such as poisoning, even diarrhea will cause a series of terrifying results.

"It's okay, come and have two drinks with me!" Xianfeng casually picked up the empty bowl on the table and began to pour himself wine.

Guo Xing'a looked at Rong Lu, and then carefully took a large number of Xianfeng, and barely saw some troops. Rong Lu's face was too good, but it was not angry, anxious, or anything like that, but obviously a little embarrassed. Xianfeng's reckless nature was fully revealed, the previous emperor's shelves had long been thrown aside, and he talked more, his eyes were a little dull, and he had some abnormal smiles on his face. Senior wine Mengzi Guoxing'a made a judgment on Xianfeng's state at a glance, and this buddy drank it in place.

Xianfeng can't be said to be drunk now, but it's almost there. His state is legendary, it's just right if you don't drink, and you drink more. You don't need more, three more cups, and Xianfeng guarantees that it will be completely revealed. Guo Xing'a was not interested in watching the emperor play drunk, but he was too late. Liu Laoer's small shop is mainly to greet the grassroots people, so there is nothing flashy, everything is affordable. Guoxing'a's small landlord's drinking utensils were specially purchased by Liu Lao'er for Guoxing'a, and everyone else drank them in two bowls. Xianfeng started a two-bowl, and one or two bowls are about equal to eight cups. So before Guo Xing'a stretched out his hand to intercept it, Xianfeng had already put himself down perfectly.

"Guoxing, let's dig out our hearts!" Xianfeng lay on the table for a while, then stared at Guo Xing'a with his wandering eyes, and made a request that the emperor should never make.
