Chapter 701: The Root of the Dynasty

The little emperor of Tongzhi has been preparing for pro-government in recent years, but he has always been preparing, and he has been preparing for a big wedding and a pro-government day, but it is still a matter of no shadow. The reason why the small circle meeting between the two palaces and Yi Xin was for him to come was mainly to familiarize him with government affairs and cultivate his ability to make decisions, but no one wanted to listen to his opinions. But Tongzhi opened his mouth, and everyone couldn't help but pay attention to his opinion, after all, he was the nominal ruler of the Qing Dynasty, and this little emperor was not simple.

This is the second time that Tongzhi has been on the throne for eleven years, and the last time he opened his mouth was in the eighth year of Tongzhi, and that time was far from being so big, it was just killing a eunuch, but that time it brought a deep shock to everyone, and the little guy in front of the curtain was not simple. Many years ago, Guo Xing'a had a royal banquet in Chengde Summer Resort, and there was a eunuch named An Dehai who served Guo Xing'a with food, and Tongzhi killed this person.

People in the Qing Dynasty got married earlier, and the emperor's wedding was even earlier, after all, it was the emperor! This development is also certainly earlier than the average person. There are many precedents for this matter, the first Shunzhi Ye who entered the customs was married at the age of fourteen, and the Holy Ancestor Kangxi was married at the age of thirteen. After Kangxi, there was no unmarried monarch on the throne in the Qing Dynasty until Tongzhi. Tongzhi's marriage started early, but there was no explanation for when it happened, but the preparations did not dare to delay at all. Whether it is the use of troops in the southwest or the war in the northwest, as long as Guoxing'a does not wave his army into the customs, there can be no mistakes in the emperor's marriage preparations. An Dehai was unlucky, so he was unlucky in this matter, he the heart that he shouldn't have done, and he enjoyed the scenery that he shouldn't enjoy.

Although the things in the Xinyou period did not work out, An Dehai's contribution to the two palaces still has to be counted, so after the court situation stabilized, An Dehai got the position of the chief eunuch, and he was also red and purple in the palace. Although An Dehai mixed well, he offended a person who should not be offended even if he died, that is, Emperor Tongzhi, in fact, he can't be said to be wrong, he is just too loyal. An Dehai's mistake was also committed by Feng Bao, the predecessor of the Ming Dynasty, but unfortunately An Dehai failed to learn a lesson from Feng Bao.

As Cixi's cronie, An Dehai will watch the big and small affairs in the palace for Cixi, and every move of the little emperor of Tongzhi is his top priority. As the most honorable primary school student in the world, Emperor Tongzhi is not exempt from vulgarity, and he has all the common problems of primary school students. Although An Dehai is not a teacher, he really does a lot of work to pass on small reports to parents. Tongzhi's loving father Xianfeng has died, but his strict mother Cixi is still there, and An Dehai only needs a dozen small reports, and Tongzhi will be scolded. The little emperor hated this loyal dog, how loyal An Dehai was to Cixi, it was not something Tongzhi could think of, anyway, this dog slave bullied himself, and Emperor Tongzhi wrote it down. is hated by the emperor, even if it is an emperor who has not yet been in power, don't think about a good end, with Zhang Juzheng's support, Feng Bao, who has strong ability, is not good, and An Dehai, who is a broken urging himself, is even worse.

In view of the historical lessons of the Ming Dynasty's eunuch dictatorship and disaster to the country, the Qing Dynasty has always been extremely strict in the management of eunuchs in the inner court, and resolutely prevented eunuchs from interfering in court affairs. At the beginning of the founding of the country, Lord Shunzhi promulgated an edict in the tenth year of Shunzhi, which made provisions on the management of eunuchs: 1. No one is allowed to leave the imperial city without permission unless he is sent; (2) No interference is allowed outside of the function; 3. It is not allowed to attract outsiders; 4. No handover of foreign officials; 5. It is forbidden to make brothers, nephews, and relatives secretly intersect; Sixth, it is forbidden for fake brothers and nephews to buy land and property, so as to control the government and disturb the people. Two years later, Emperor Shunzhi ordered the Ministry of Industry to cast an iron plaque in front of the palace to Jiaotai Hall to show warning.

This edict later became the ancestral family law of the Qing Dynasty, but anyone who violated it by a eunuch would be punished with capital punishment. At the same time, the "Current Rules in the King James Palace" also stipulates that the eunuch level is only four grades, and he is not allowed to leave the imperial city without authorization, and there is no forgiveness for violators. An Dehai was only a six-rank Lanling eunuch, but relying on the favor of the Empress Dowager Cixi, he did something that did not kill him. Without knowing any official yamen, he violated the ancestral system and left the palace without permission, which allowed the little emperor to find an opportunity for revenge. Of course, An Dehai is not a fool, he went out of Beijing in the name of purchasing wedding supplies for Emperor Tongzhi, but unfortunately he did not have a certificate approval.

The rules of the Qing Dynasty are still there, and no one cares about An Dehai in Beijing, and it is not his world when he leaves Beijing. As soon as he arrived in Shandong, he was detained by Ding Baozhen, the governor of Shandong, because he did not carry any official documents. An Dehai, who didn't know how to die, still wanted to be arrogant with the celebrity chef Ding Zhongcheng, but he didn't know that Emperor Tongzhi had sharpened his knives. As soon as the upright Ding Zhongcheng arrived in Beijing, Emperor Tongzhi took advantage of Cixi's illness to unite his mother-in-law Ci'an and his sixth uncle Yixin, and let his iron rod be obedient and issued an edict to correct An Dehai on the spot. For the sake of insurance, Tongzhi also mobilized the Baitang'a guards at the sticky pole and sent the edict to Ding Baozhen in an expedited manner of 800 li.

After Ding Zhongcheng received the order, he was confused for a long time, wouldn't it be necessary to kill a eunuch with such a big battle! After thinking hard for a long time, Ding Baozhen, who has outstanding political achievements and can cook, thought too much, and he thought that the Tongzhi Emperor was angry because An Dehai violated the ancestral system! Not only did An Dehai immediately correct the law, but also came to a violent corpse for three days, and he had to take the national discipline seriously. How did he know that Emperor Tongzhi just wanted to get rid of a second or fifth boy who made a small report, and he didn't care about any national discipline at all. If An Dehai can play with the little emperor every day and help the little emperor fool his mother Cixi together, Tongzhi can rush eight hundred miles to save his life.

An Dehai is very favored, but in the final analysis, he is just a eunuch, and if he dies, he will die, and Cixi will not do anything with his son about this. No matter how favored the poodle is, it is just a dog, and no matter how annoying the son is, it is also his own. The son kicked his dog to death, at most he was scolded, anyway, Cixi has no shortage of dogs, An Dehai is dead, and a large number of people such as Li Lianying and Cui Yugui are lining up! And through this incident, both the two palaces and Prince Gong's impression of Emperor Tongzhi have changed greatly, and the child can still be saved for this problem.

At the beginning of Tongzhi's accession to the throne, the Empress Dowager of the Two Palaces and Prince Gong had high hopes for him, and they all wanted to build this little emperor into a saint like Kangxi through their own efforts. After Tongzhi became the emperor, the Empress Dowager of the Two Palaces, Prince Gong and Su Shun began to look for famous teachers for Zaichun in many ways, and finally selected Li Hongzao, Qi Liaozao, Weng Xincun, Wuren and other four well-educated Confucians. Prince Gong and Su Shun teamed up to draw up a curriculum for the little emperor, who was a master of all languages, horseback, archery, and guns. This is completely a plan to cultivate all-round talents, and if it can really be concocted in the same way, then the little emperor should be a "superman" when he grows up.

In order to better manage the little emperor's study and make all the plans effective, the empress dowager of the two palaces specially arranged for the fifth master, Prince Hui, Mianyu, to be in charge of the little emperor's study affairs. Prince Hui Mianyu is the fifth son and youngest son of Emperor Jiaqing, and is particularly loved because he has the highest rank and good conduct among the royal nobles. Cixi also arranged for Mianyu's two sons, Yixiang and Yixun, to accompany him, which was both a supervision and a companion to the little emperor, which can be described as a careful arrangement.

The plan is good, but the execution is really bad, Superman doesn't appear, and the little waste is just around the corner. Jae-chun is already the emperor, there is no pressure of competition in his life, and there is only a lack of supervision and love, so although he studies every day, he rarely makes progress in his studies. Until he was sixteen years old, even the emperor's daily review of the folds was still "not a sentence". Before Guo Xing'a came out to mess around, there was no punctuation in Chinese, and all the twists and turns had to be broken by people. This thing requires a high level of cultural literacy, Guoxinga can't do this, although the little emperor Tongzhi has read more books than Guoxinga, but he can't do it either.

The more I read the book, the worse it became, and he was always messing around every day, Tongzhi was in Cixi's eager eyes, but he became a little bastard from a quasi-saint. Cixi saw that she was just a little bastard, and Prince Gong Yixin knew even more. Tongzhi is not a little bastard in the eyes of Cixi, nor a little baby in the eyes of Ci'an, but a little devil. Except for being a little smart, it's just useless, and his private life is extremely chaotic, not only has he already had insight into women, but he also had a same-sex scandal with Wang Qingqi, who was supposed to accompany him to study. Yi Xin has the intention to usurp the throne, otherwise the Qing Dynasty will be destroyed sooner or later in the hands of this little evil obstacle. It is for these reasons that the two palaces and Yixin do not agree to the same rule and pro-government, the only exception is the dead-eyed Su Shun. Su Shun is dedicated to maintaining Xianfeng's Taoism, so he is very active in wanting Tongzhi to be pro-government, and the reason why he was killed is also due to this factor. The two palaces and Prince Gong both felt that Tongzhi had to go back to the furnace and re-cultivate, and the matter of pro-government was in a hurry.

Everyone hasn't completely given up Tongzhi, because of An Dehai's death, this matter Tongzhi has done too beautifully. First of all, he saw the opportunity, seized the time of Cixi's illness, and completely isolated Cixi from this matter. Then he contacted Ci'an and Yixin, who were dissatisfied with An Dehai, to ensure that he could get strong support and not get things out of trouble. In the end, he launched Su Shun back the pot, Cixi had already seen that Su Shun was unhappy, and it was just right to find him to carry the pot. And Su Shun is Xianfeng's ironcore, and his loyalty has reached the point of detour, as long as Tongzhi speaks, Su Shun will help him do it desperately.

Although Tongzhi's deployment was still very immature, Cixi only took one day to figure out what was going on, and Ci'an, Yixin, Su Shun and others did not hesitate to sell Tongzhi, but everyone still appreciated Tongzhi's actions very much. As a fourteen-year-old child, Tongzhi's performance is already very good, at least when Xianfeng or Guoxinga is fourteen years old, they will definitely not be able to be so beautiful. After all, the Emperor Tongzhi is not a child who can only play "Gentlemen Don't Cry", he still has a certain political ability, although he still can't read, but everyone still thinks he can be saved.

After the An Dehai incident, Tongzhi has not spoken for a long time, and today such a sentence suddenly popped up, and everyone really has a new idea. If you bring Guo Xing'a over and talk about it, maybe you can really get a little windfall.
