The Imperial Palace of the capital.

For so many years, Xianfeng did not dare to slack off on state affairs, and has been doing his best to maintain this great Qing country that has been riddled with holes, but his efforts have not yielded results, and the folds of successive failures have been rolling in as always. Xianfeng was a little disheartened, and he didn't review the minister's recital for many days, hiding in the small garden to watch the troupe act.

Watching "Flower Singing" in the morning and "Cappella Singing" in the afternoon, several ministers of the Military Aircraft Department were in a hurry, and the excerpts handed over were not approved for a long time, and the people below could not do anything.

The afternoon "cappella" was over, and it was getting late.

"Your Majesty, where are we going now?" An Dehai asked.

"Go to Chuxiu Palace, Concubine Yi's side." Xianfeng flipped over Concubine Yi's brand.

"Your Majesty, Lord Su has been waiting in the Qianqing Palace for several days." An Dehai didn't want to say it, but several adults from the military aircraft department forced him to tell the emperor.

"He still has a face and other folds, what did the Zeng Guofan he recommended look like when he was beaten by bandits? Let him wait! Xianfeng's face immediately changed.

"Yes, yes, yes." An Dehai didn't dare to say more, "Move to Chuxiu Palace!" ”

Concubine Yi is the later Cixi, she gave birth to the future Tongzhi in Chuxiu Palace, so she has always regarded Chuxiu Palace as her blessed land. Later, I became a concubine and have been living here ever since.

"Aifei, are you still practicing calligraphy?" As soon as Xianfeng entered the door, he saw the pen, ink, paper, and inkstone on the table.

"Your Majesty, take a look, how is the concubine's handwriting?" Concubine Yi took out a piece of writing she had just written and handed it to Xianfeng to read.

"Yes, yes, this font is neat and delicate, I like it very much." The calligraphy of the Qing Dynasty emperors is very good, Xianfeng is no exception, Concubine Yi can win Xianfeng's favor, in addition to her outstanding appearance, she can also calligraphy and painting, which makes her stand out among many concubines. In the two years after entering the palace, she was promoted from a noble to a concubine, and from a concubine to a concubine in two years, so the rocket-like upgrade speed shows how favored she is.

"Your Majesty, you seem to be coughing again, come and drink a bowl of lotus seed soup prepared for you by your concubine." Concubine Yi paid great attention to the details of Xianfeng, and she could notice Xianfeng as soon as he felt uncomfortable, and it could also relieve his pain.

"It's still Concubine Yi carefully." Xianfeng took the lotus seed soup, and he also loved to eat this very much.

Taking advantage of the stall where Xianfeng was eating, Concubine Yi quietly pulled An Dehai aside and whispered: "Today, the emperor still hasn't approved the recital?" ”

An Dehai said aggrievedly: "The villain also reminded me that Long Live Lord just didn't go to the Qianqing Palace to deal with the government." Several ministers of military aircraft are in a hurry, and the villain has no choice. ”

"You go and bring the fold, and I'll persuade the emperor." Concubine Yi thought about it, this fold has to be reviewed every day, and military affairs cannot be delayed for a day. The emperor comes to Chuxiu Palace every day, and people who don't understand still think that he is a fox and seduces the lord, so that the emperor is negligent in the government, and his reputation will stink.

"Pierce." An Dehai hurriedly agreed.

When An Dehai brought it to the fold, Concubine Yi saw that Xianfeng was in a good mood, and deliberately coquettishly said: "The emperor has a lot of opportunities, the concubines have not seen the emperor's approval of the folds, can the emperor approve a few copies for the concubines to see?" ”

Xianfeng really doted on Concubine Yi, took her little hand and said, "Since Concubine Ai loves to read, I will take a few copies for you to see." ”

An Dehai picked up the excerpt, Xianfeng took a copy casually, flipped it over twice, and said: "This is the excerpt of the Yunnan Admiral, which says that the wild nature of Yunnan Tusi has not been eliminated and it is difficult to communicate." ”

"Then how do you approve it?" Concubine Yi said curiously.

Xianfeng thought for a while and instructed: "The folk customs of various provinces are different, how can they be the same?" Always wait for you to do solid work, and the camera walks. ”

"The emperor is so good, this is it?" Concubine Yi said with a look of adoration, and she took the fold and looked at it again.

"That's it." Xianfeng drank two more mouthfuls of lotus seed soup and said with a smile.

"The concubine still wants to read another copy." Concubine Yi shook Xianfeng's arm and pleaded.

"Okay, then read another one." Xianfeng drew another fold, flipped it over, and said: "This is the grain that the governor of Gansu wants to provide disaster relief." ”

"How do you approve that?" Concubine Yi's eyes flashed.

"This guy is a farmer, he asks me for disaster relief food every year, his twists and turns are exaggerated, treat me as his money bag, ignore him!" Xianfeng slapped the fold, "I said you would write it." ”

Xianfeng said: "Why is it so exaggerated for a small thing in the place. Your reports are often vain and untrue, and if they are not true, they will be untrustworthy. ”

Concubine Yi listened and wrote what Xianfeng said on the fold, and handed it to Xianfeng to read after writing.

Xianfeng took the excerpt and praised: "Concubine Ai is really smart, this excerpt is well approved." ”

This time, under the instigation of Concubine Yi, Xianfeng unconsciously reviewed a lot of twists and turns, and when it came later, Xianfeng also saw Concubine Yi's intentions, he was not uncomfortable in his heart, but looked at Concubine Yi twice.

"Reading the folds with Concubine Ai, I don't feel impetuous, and I don't feel tired. In the future, Concubine Yi, you will come to the Qianqing Palace and review the folds with me. Xianfeng also knew in his heart that it was time to deal with the government, he was just angry with the ministers, and he didn't want to see these unpleasant excerpts.

"Thank the emperor, in the future, the concubines will send lotus seed soup to the emperor, and accompany the emperor to talk to relieve your boredom." can always be by the emperor's side, of course Concubine Yi can't ask for it.

In this way, Concubine Yi gradually began to deal with the government affairs with Xianfeng often, at first she just helped him fan the wind, beat his back to make a show, and did not dare to directly intervene in the affairs of the chapter, and then Xianfeng trusted him more and more, and slowly became Xianfeng said that she would write it, and finally Xianfeng even directly let her approve some of the recitals.

================

The prison in Tianjing held many captured Qing court officers, and Yang Xiuqing specially sent some people to torture them day and night to see what valuable information they had in their mouths.

Cheng Xueqi happened to be in charge of this part of the work, and through continuous interrogation day and night, a deputy general of Xiang Rong finally spit out a piece of his past in Jintian.

Jiao Er's elder brother Jiao Da once claimed to be the younger brother of the Heavenly King, the Tiande King of the Heavenly Kingdom, and after being captured, he expressed his willingness to work for the Qing court.

This captive's confession attracted Cheng Xueqi's attention, Jiao Er is a direct subordinate of Luo Outline, would Luo Outline not know about him? So why didn't he report it? What is the intention?

And because Yang Xiaoshan did not come back from the western expedition, Luo Xuan, who could not stop Xiaoshan, was already disliked by the king of the east, and he was not allowed to follow Yang Xiaoshan to the camp in Jiangnan, Jiangbei, and it was not easy to deal with a person who had fallen out of favor.

"Can you use this now to make a fuss about Luo Outline, Luo Outline is Yang Xiaoshan's henchman, and if you can't do it, you can still pull Yang Xiaoshan into the water." Cheng Xueqi is racking his heart to provoke the relationship between Dongwang and Yang Xiaoshan.

Cheng Xueqi spent a lot of effort to write a report and handed it to the East King.

Yang Xiuqing was not at ease with these people who would come to the world, so he immediately approved the action to investigate Luo Xuan.

"King Dong, what if the prince has something to do with this matter?" Cheng Xueqi asked deliberately.

"No matter who it is, as long as it is related to this matter, it must be investigated to the end." Yang Xiuqing said sharply.

"Yes." Cheng Xueqi replied immediately, turned around and was about to leave.

"Wait a minute, there must be real evidence for Yang Xiaoshan, don't come nonsense, you know?" Yang Xiuqing said suddenly.

"Yes, my subordinates understand." Cheng Xueqi probably knows the bottom line of Dongwang, and it seems that he can't force Yang Xiaoshan, but it doesn't matter, as long as he opens a gap in Luo Xuan's body, Yang Xiaoshan will never be able to get out of it.
