Chapter 338: The Confused Masterminds

Although Empress Dowager Xi's expression didn't seem to be fake, Guo Xing'a still had some doubts in her heart. There is a clear record in the history books that how could the Empress Dowager Xi, as one of the masterminds of the coup, not know anything. And without the cooperation of the two palaces, Yixin alone would never be able to complete the coup d'état, and it is impossible for the Queen Mother of the West not to know it.

"Our Lady of the Queen Mother, don't test me! Although I had a time when I was not on good terms with the first emperor, I was also a courtier of the Qing Dynasty, and I would support the decision of the queen mother of the two palaces in public and private! "The Empress Dowager East and the Empress Dowager West are both called in private, and Guo Xing'a still has to call the official titles of the two palaces.

"Fifth brother, don't be suspicious, our sisters are definitely not tempting you, we really don't know anything! At the moment, you are the only intimate person, and we are sincerely asking you for advice! The Empress Dowager also cried.

"The words of the Seven Princes are conclusive, and there is indeed evidence, how could the two queen dowagers not know!" Guo Xing'a didn't believe in the Queen Mother of the West, who had more eyes than herself, but the Queen Mother of the East, who had always been honest, made him believe it a little.

"Old Five, you and I are blood brothers and sisters, how can I hide something from you! We really don't even know what the Seventh Master said outside, and where is there any evidence! The Empress Dowager Xi moved out of her estranged blood relationship with Guo Xing'a again, and she held Guo Xing'a's hand and refused to let go.

Guo Xing'a was really a little vague, and immediately stopped being verbose, and repeated what Yi Xun said at Prince Hui's family banquet. Then he listed a series of empirical evidences such as An Dehai's disappearance and Rong Lu's illness. In the end, he mentioned Yi Xin again, Yi Xin went to Chengde for the funeral, but he came to resist the decree, and it stands to reason that the queen mother of the two palaces should also know the inside story in advance.

"Nonsense, nonsense, there is no such thing, how could we have said such things to Xiaomei and Seventh Master, he said nonsense!" The Empress Dowager Xi is like a folk woman, her head shakes like a rattle.

"Su Shun and the others did some things without asking for a request, and our sisters did complain a few words, but there are those things that the seventh master said!" The Empress Dowager did not admit to saying such things.

"It stands to reason that the Queen Mother of the Two Palaces and the Eighth Minister have just finished talking about the affairs of the court and the government, and it is the time when the relationship is the most harmonious, there should be no such thing, and no one will believe it even if the Seventh Master says it. However, An Dehai seems to be really gone, and Rong Lu is really sick and hiding, these two empirical evidences are in front of them, and everyone will inevitably have some strange thoughts! "Guo Xing'a doesn't need the two queen mothers to deny it, what he needs is evidence, at least to explain where Bai Andehai and Rong Lu went.

"An Dehai and Rong Lu, we have arranged for them to do some small things!" The Empress Dowager Xi didn't want to say anything.

Goxinga didn't speak, just stretched out his hand that was still free and shook it. The meaning is very clear, the seventh master said that these two people contacted Prince Gong, and you said that they went on a secret mission, this seems to be right!

"Alas! The government is in the hands of the eight ministers, and none of our sisters know any courtiers, so how can it be better in the long run. So we arranged for An Dehai to return to Beijing, and Rong Lu to Chengde, to recruit some talented ministers for us! The Empress Dowager East didn't hold back her strength, and directly handed over the old man to Guo Xing'a, of course, in exchange for the complaining eyes of the Empress Dowager West.

"Does the Seventh Master know about this?" Guo Xinga asked.

"You may have heard some wind!" What the Empress Dowager said was still vague, but the meaning was also obvious, and Yi Xun knew about it.

"It's all hard to explain, there's no way to explain it. The seventh master's mind is a bit strange! As soon as his "drinking words" came out, no matter what the outcome was, there was inevitably a pimple in the hearts of the eight ministers. Guo Xing'a believed that what Yi Xun said was nonsense, and he felt more and more that this Seventh Prince was a bit unfathomable.

An Dehai and Rong Lu privately co-opted some unwilling ministers to weave henchmen for the two palaces, which is very credible and most in line with the current actual situation. The "four-day secret talks" were a political negotiation, and the result was of course the result of compromise between the two sides, and it was inevitable that both sides were somewhat dissatisfied. However, the queen mother of the two palaces is not the queen mother who will be in charge of the world in the future, they are just two little widows whose husbands have just died. Even if the Empress Dowager Xi has more eyes and a more correct pig waist, she does not have the courage to collude with political enemies to kill the eight ministers. What they dare to do is to win over some ministers and cultivate some of their own forces, so that when they play with the eight ministers again in the future, they will have more initiative. It's like a neighborhood bickering, and the biggest limit is to smash glass, block chimneys, and so on. As long as they are not crazy, no one will seduce bandits into the village because of this little friction.

"The seventh master is young after all, he is this flamboyant and nonsense character, I really don't know what to say about him!" The brows of the queen mothers of the two palaces were furrowed, but they didn't have any special thoughts about Yiyun.

"The sixth master came to Chengde for the funeral, and the two queen mothers didn't know in advance?" It is also a very bizarre thing for Yi Xin to come to Chengde suddenly.

"How can we know, it is a matter of course for this younger brother to mourn for his elder brother, how can we not let the sixth master come!" The Empress Dowager Dong once again said that she didn't know, but she felt that Yixin should come to Chengde, after all, he was Xianfeng's younger brother.

"Why did the two queen mothers violate the rules and summon the sixth master!" Guo Xinga found that this seemed to be a serial set designed by a master.

"Naturally, it's to appease the sixth master! The sixth master's power in Beijing is not small, and the emperor has just ascended the throne and the throne is not stable, of course, we must appease the sixth master and eliminate his dissenting ambitions, so as not to cause further accidents! The Empress Dowager answered neatly this time.

"The two queen mothers have discussed this matter with the eight ministers!" Guo Xing'a also felt that the Empress Dowager Xi's idea was not unreasonable, and she couldn't kill Yixin, of course, it was the most appropriate thing to appease.

"The eight of them look like they are going to eat the sixth master, how can they let us comfort the sixth master with good words! And we are kings, and they are ministers, and the ruler should not act in counsel with his subordinates! The Queen Mother of the West is right, and the Queen Mother of the East is also nodding frequently in the back.

"Minister Zanxiang has no knowledge of this matter?" Guo Xing'a finally broke away from the hand of the Empress Dowager Xi, and her eyes were about to turn to the sky.

The Queen Mother of the Two Palaces is not a person who has read a bunch of sage books, and I don't know where they learned this kind of rotten Confucian thought. Don't they know this moment and that time? They are not Xianfeng, they are just widows left by Xianfeng, where is the supreme monarchy, their imperial power is shared with the eight ministers. As political allies, they actually made their own decisions, and they didn't even reveal any news to their allies, let alone the domineering Sushun, and Guo Xing'a would also be suspicious of them.

"They are wide enough, is it possible that our sisters should also be controlled by them!" The Empress Dowager is not a good person, and she is also very dissatisfied with the eight ministers. Although he found Guoxing Ah Lai in order not to completely fall out with the eight ministers, he also had a little pimple in his heart.

"Another knot that can't be untied! Who gave this unfortunate idea to the two queen mothers! "The eight ministers are also really loyal, and Guo Xing'a would have turned his face a long time ago. Guo Xinga must ask who came up with this idea, and the person who came up with the idea must have something to do with the master behind the scenes. This master is really remarkable, not only playing the famous Empress Dowager Xi in the palm of his hand, but also playing a ruthless move that is enough to kill the political core of the Qing Dynasty.

"I said it inadvertently when the fifth master came to ask for peace." Seeing that Guo Xing's face was not good, the Empress Dowager Dong timidly gave an answer.

"How could Prince Hui bring up such a thing?" Guo Xing'a was confused all of a sudden, and Daoguang's notoriously useless younger brother was also mixed here.

"The fifth master is interceding for the seventh master, he said that the seventh master said nonsense after drinking, and he blamed himself very much, let us appease the seventh master, and by the way, he mentioned the words of his family and brothers. The fifth master said the same, they are all their own brothers, and they must always try to be united! "The Empress Dowager Dong can listen to this kind of common words very well.

"Appease the Seventh Master!" Guo Xing'a began to roll his eyes again, and he didn't know if Yiyun was true or not, but everything was caused by him, and he didn't expect to appease him.

"The seventh master is also an unintentional mistake, he is already very self-blaming, we can't be embarrassed by him as sisters-in-law, and it is also appropriate to coax him. Therefore, when Jin Feng was inlaid with the blue flag and the deputy capital of Manchuria was inlaid with the blue flag of the Han army, we sent the errand of the Yellow Flag Han army to the seventh master. "The Empress Dowager looks like a good sister-in-law.

"Oh!" There was a strange feeling in Goxinga's heart, but it was just a flash, and it wasn't until much later that he understood the origin of this feeling. The personnel transfer to appease Yiyun involved all the military power.

"What did the sixth master and the two queen mothers say?" Guo Xing'a suddenly had a strange feeling, he felt that the other mastermind, Yi Xin, might not know the inside story, and he was also fooled. As for whether the person who fooled them was Yixun, Guo Xing'a was a little vague.

The sixth master said very strangely, and after being polite for a while, he began to show his loyalty to the emperor. Then he said that the situation in Beijing is very good, and he has also contacted the foreigners very well, so we don't have to worry. After talking for a while, the sixth master knelt down. But before leaving, the sixth master specially said that no matter what will we have, he will respect it, and he will definitely be able to do his errand smoothly! "There is nothing wrong with Yi Xin's words, but the Empress Dowager Xi is very politically sensitive and always feels that there is a problem here.

"He's been fooled too!" Goxinga can be sure now.

The order in which Yi Xin spoke is very revealing, if he is a normal performance, he should first say that the capital is fine, and let the Queen Mother return to Luan with peace of mind. Then it should be to show loyalty to the emperor and the queen mother, and as for the words that are specifically mentioned to respect the will, they should be put together with the expression of loyalty. Yi Xin was busy showing loyalty to the emperor from the beginning, it was certainly not because of his language and organization skills, but because he was using this to show his attitude, and he was going straight to the point to express his support for the emperor's throne. The so-called Beijing is well, which is to introduce the current environment to the Queen Mother of the Two Palaces, saying that she is fully prepared. In the end, if he respects the will, it is estimated that he has not been able to wait for the Queen Mother to make a very obvious hint.

It can be seen from Yi Xin's words that he should have gotten information similar to what Yi Xun said, and he came to negotiate with the Queen Mother of the Two Palaces. Yi Xin said at the beginning that he would not covet the throne, and then said that he had the ability to launch a coup d'état to solve the eight ministers, and finally made it clear that there was really no way. The shrewd Yixin also fell into other people's calculations this time.

"This time, it seems that someone has designed the eight ministers, Prince Gong and the two queen mothers. But please rest assured, the Queen Mother will find a way to deliver a message to Sixth Brother Su about these things, and try to dispel their doubts. Even if this master has any tricks, as long as I have Gu'an Army, I will ensure the safety of the two queen mothers and the emperor, and never let the younger generation have the opportunity to commit a crime! Goxinga gave a long-awaited reply from the two palaces.

Guoxing'a must ensure the security of the Qing Dynasty's orthodoxy in both public and private affairs, and if the power center of the Qing Dynasty is killed at this time, it will be a great chaos in the world, and this is not a situation that Guoxing'a is willing to see. However, there are some things that are not behind the masters, but some inevitable coincidences. Before Guo Xing'a could figure out the key to the matter, the letter that shook the world had already been sent to the emperor.
