Monk Greenqin is indeed well-behaved and knowledgeable about current affairs, I don't know where I learned about the devil six and Ci'an, and even ran to the front of the chief minister Zaiyuan, suggesting that Zaiyuan use this as a reason to abolish the title of the devil six counties who have always been at odds with Zaiyuan, Su Shun and others, and put them in the Zongren Mansion forever.

"Monk Wangye, if this king is not mistaken, you and Prince Gong don't seem to have a bad relationship?" Jae-won pretended to be surprised, smiled and asked, "What?" Will it be so ruthless today? ”

"With the prince's forgiveness, Xiao Wang is by no means ruthless." The monk said respectfully: "It's really that Prince Gong's actions are too chilling, it's just a matter of pretending to be a shaman to sneak into the palace, and even have a secret conversation with the Queen Mother in the dormitory. ”

After that, the monk and the prince also lowered his voice and added, saying: "Zai Wangye, and Xiao Wang still suspects that Gong Wangye is doing this, it is very likely that he is aiming at the eight ministers who care for his life, and please be careful." ”

Zaiyuan nodded, thanked the monk and received the favor of the monk and the prince, and then said: "What the monk said is indeed reasonable, but there is no way, the only eunuch present at the time has committed suicide by taking poison, and the prince and the empress dowager insist that they are just talking about the relationship between uncle and sister-in-law, and there is no evidence if they want to deal with the prince Gong strictly." ”

"Prince Gong pretended to be a shaman to enter the palace, and he also had a secret conversation with the Empress Dowager in the deep palace, isn't this a ready-made evidence of the crime?" The monk asked strangely.

"Then do you want the emperor's reputation behind him?" Zaiyuan glanced at the monk and said, "If this matter is made public, what rumors will there be among the people?" Didn't the emperor want to be disgraced after his death? ”

Zaiyuan reminded him, and the monk suddenly remembered that this kind of thing really can't be made public, so he quickly slapped himself in the mouth, and confessed to Zaiwang Ye in a loud voice. However, the monk still refused to give up, and lowered his voice and said: "Zai Wangye, Xiao Wang is foolish, it doesn't matter if you can't cure the sin of Gong Wangye, we can come secretly and solve this hidden danger in private." ”

"Privately? What do you mean? Jae-won asked vigilantly.

"Lord Zai, don't underestimate Prince Gong." The monk said in a deep voice: "Among the several brothers of the emperor, he has the highest intelligence, the deepest scheming, and is the best at forbearance, after Wu surpassed Wu Futai and revealed that he had different intentions, he can still easily get rid of the crime, get rid of the disaster of prison, and take the opportunity of foreigners to enter the Kou Jingshi to make a comeback, if such a person is not eliminated early, it will be a disaster in the future!" ”

Zaiyuan pondered and stopped talking, and the monk and prince observed his words, so he lowered his voice again and said: "Zai Wangye, if you don't want to do it yourself, Xiao Wang can do it for you." When you return to Beijing, as long as you ask Xiao Wang to escort Prince Gong back to Beijing, Xiao Wang can guarantee that Prince Gong will not return to the capital. ”

Zaiyuan still didn't speak, but his heart was somewhat shaken - borrowing the hand of the monk and the prince to kill the dangerous devil six, of course Zaiyuan couldn't ask for such a good thing.

"Lord Zai! Give Xiao Wang this chance! ”

Seeing that Zaiyuan was slow to make up his mind, the monk and the prince simply knelt down on Zaiyuan's knees, and said in a sincere tone: "Zai Wangye, Xiao Wang knows how much I used to be, how much I offended you, and I also had a lot of dirt with Su Zhongtang's proud protégé Wu Chaoyue Wu Zhitai, but Xiao Wang really repented sincerely this time, and begged the prince to give Xiao Wang a chance to reform himself!" I beg the prince to give me a chance to prove my heart! ”

After that, the monk and the prince also kowtowed to Zaiyuan again and again, and his determination to accept the name was sincere. And Zai Yuan rolled his eyes and thought about it, and suddenly remembered that Su Shun reminded himself to pay attention to the matter of Gyeonggi military power, considering that the military power in the Gyeonggi area was in the hands of the monk prince, Jaeyuan still held the monk prince with both hands, and said with a smile: "Monk Wangye, don't mention the past again, your heart is also understood by this king." Don't worry, I'll talk about it when Fuling returns to Beijing. ”

Seeing that Zaiyuan did not open his mouth to refuse, the monk and the prince were immediately overjoyed, and hurriedly thanked Zaiyuan repeatedly, constantly expressing his loyalty, and more sincerely begging Zaiyuan to say more good words for himself in front of Su Shun, so that Su Shun also gave himself a chance to apologize and change his ways. Zaiyuan, who was wearing a pair of pants with Su Shun, agreed, and talked with the monk for a long time.

In the busy, the time soon came to February 22, and when there was only one day left before Qiling returned to Beijing, Zaiyuan suddenly decided to temporarily hand over Devil Six to the Chahar cavalry escort who planned to walk at the end of the team under the pretext that Devil Six was not worthy to return to Beijing with Azusa Palace. When Duanhua and Sushun, two sworn friends, expressed their puzzlement about this, Zaiyuan also told Duanhua and Sushun about the secret proposal of the monk and the prince.

"That idiot is so kind?" Su Shun was a little suspicious and said, "He is not afraid of being implicated? Even if he didn't do it himself, he wouldn't be able to escape the sin of a poor escort? ”

"He didn't have a choice." Zaiyuan said proudly: "Because of the matter of the comfort pavilion, he has offended us a lot before, if he doesn't hurry up and do something for us to sell something, let alone his position, even his title will not be kept." ”

"I think it's doable." Duanhua also said: "If Monk Greenqin really does this, his net worth and life will be in our hands in the future, and there is no need to worry about him being unfaithful." If he doesn't dare to take advantage of the opportunity we have given him, we will be able to clean him up. ”

Considering the Gyeonggi military power in the hands of the monk prince, as well as the huge Mongolian power behind the monk prince, Su Shun hesitated for a moment, then nodded and said, "Okay, just do it, give him this opportunity." ”

So, the devil six, who has been under house arrest for a long time, was quickly handed over to the army of the monk and the prince, in order to completely clear up the relationship in the future, Zaiyuan and others deliberately did not send the imperial guards under the command of Jing Shou to monitor the monk's army, and directly handed over the devil six to the monk and the prince.

On February 23rd, the large-scale spirit support team officially returned to Beijing, the forward battalion and the Shenji battalion were in front of the road, the Xiaocai battalion and the Shenji battalion were in the back for the second team, the third team was the Xianfeng coffin protected by the imperial guards, and the eight ministers, the queen mother of the two palaces and the civil and military officials were accompanied, and the fourth team was the eight banners foot military camp, and the Chahar of the monk and the prince rode at the end. Knocking and beating all the way, it was mighty, and it stopped at every turn to hold some bullshit ceremony, but it was also very lively and jubilant.

The first day on the way back to Beijing was very peaceful, and there were no accidents, but after a night's rest, when the next day was about to leave, Cixi suddenly sent someone to invite Zaiyuan and Duanhua to the front, so that Zaiyuan and Duanhua saw the Qixiang Emperor Zaichun who was in Ci'an's arms, and said apologetically: "Zai Wangye, Duan Wangye, there is something that needs to trouble you, the emperor has been crying non-stop yesterday afternoon, and the imperial doctor said that this is because the emperor is too young and does not adapt to the weather in the mountains, so he must quickly change the environment, otherwise it will be delayed." , the dragon body may be affected. ”

took a closer look at Jaechun, who was being held by Ci'an, and saw that his expression was indeed a little sluggish, and he snuggled in Ci'an's arms with tears in the corners of his eyes and hummed, which seemed to be really uncomfortable. Zaiyuan and Duanhua, who were loyal to the Manchu court, did not dare to slack off, and hurriedly asked Cixi: "Queen Mother, what should I do?" ”

"Lord Wang, if you don't do this, anyway, I and the Empress Dowager Dong's two women won't be able to help you if they stay." Cixi proposed: "Why don't you ask the two princes to send a team of guards to us, so that we can go back to the capital to rest first?" ”

"It's ......."

Zaiyuan and Duanhua were a little embarrassed, and Cixi said again: "Lord, Fuling's way back to Beijing will take at least six days, and the emperor will definitely not be able to stand it if he keeps doing this." Also, not to mention the emperor, the various tosses along the way are a little unbearable for me and the Empress Dowager Dong, so I think I and the Empress Dowager should take the emperor first, so that it will only take three or four days at most to get to the capital, so that the emperor can rest in the palace. ”

Cixi deliberately only announced that Zaiyuan and Duanhua would speak, because Zaiyuan and Duanhua were the most loyal and best to speak to the Manchu Dynasty, and were not as stubborn, irritable and difficult as Sushun. The result was not as Cixi expected, and after discussing a few words in a low voice, Zaiyuan nodded reluctantly and said, "Since the emperor and the Empress Dowager want to go first, the ministers will arrange guards and chauffeurs for you." It's just that the Queen Mother ....... ”

"The emperor can't do without the Queen Mother." Cixi took over the conversation and said in a gentle voice: "The emperor was raised by the mourning family and the Empress Dowager Dong, and no one can coax him except the two of us, so it is best for the Empress Dowager Dong to go back to the capital with us first." ”

After that, Cixi smiled again and said to Zaiyuan: "Don't worry, Lord Zai, there is a mourning family, and it will be fine." ”

During this period of time, the friendly cooperation with Cixi had already made Zaiyuan and Duanhua completely let go of their vigilance against Cixi, and seeing that Zaichun was indeed close in Ci'an's arms, Zaiyuan and Duanhua didn't say anything more, and immediately nodded in agreement, and immediately arranged a team of imperial guards for the Empress Dowager of the Two Palaces and Zaichun to protect them to return to Beijing first.

During this period, Cao Yuying, the foreman of Zhangjing of the Military Aircraft Department, didn't know what medicine he had taken wrong, and deliberately entangled Su Shun, the most difficult in the group of ministers of Gu Ming, with a lot of government affairs that needed to be dealt with urgently. Therefore, Su Shun hurriedly put down the messenger in his hand after seeing Cixi and the others come forward, and found Zaiyuan and Duanhua and others to ask the reason, but after learning what happened, Su Shun was inevitably a little suspicious in his heart, and hurriedly asked Zaiyuan and others: "The Empress Dowager Xi is so anxious?" Even if she walks with us, she won't be able to delay for a few days, huh? ”

"The emperor is not used to such stop-and-go, and the Queen Mother of the West is afraid that he will not be able to stand it." Zaiyuan replied casually, and comforted: "It's okay, it's the imperial guards who protect them when they return to Beijing, and there will be no problems." ”

Su Shun was still a little uneasy, but since Cixi and the others had already left first, if Su Shun changed his words and forced them to stop and walk together, it would inevitably be too disrespectful. So Su Shun had no choice but to nod, and then said to Zaiyuan and Duanhua with some dissatisfaction: "If there is such a thing in the future, it is best to discuss it with me first." ”

…………

Su Shun had no chance to discuss similar situations with Zaiyuan, Duanhua and other die-hard friends, and after leaving the Fuling team, Cixi used the excuse of Emperor Qixiang Zaichun's needs, not only asked for a non-stop rapid advance, but also took a shortcut to speed up. In addition, during this period, Cixi also casually found an excuse to give the head of the guards who led the team, An Ba Etuhui, an official position as deputy commander, in exchange for the gratitude of Anba Etuhui, and unconditionally carried out Cixi's swift order.

In this way, in just three days, Cixi and Ci'an returned to the capital with Zaichun, and the prince and prince alcohol who stayed in the capital immediately welcomed Cixi and his party into the inner part of the city that had been tightly controlled by them. Then before she could sit down in the Forbidden City, Cixi immediately asked the prince of alcohol, "Has the sixth master arrived?" ”

Of course, Cixi cared so much about Devil Zi Liu, not because she was worried about the life safety of her brother-in-law, but because Devil Zi Liu knew most of Cixi's coup plans, and also knew that those people were the main force in this coup, Cixi had to prevent Devil Zi Liu from failing to get away and was known to Su Shun and others in advance. Fortunately, the prince immediately replied: "I was just secretly sent back to Prince Gong's mansion by the monk and the prince's people, and the younger brother has already sent someone to inform him, and it is estimated that he will be able to enter the palace in a while." ”

"Good." Cixi breathed a sigh of relief, and shouted: "Spread the decree of the two palaces, Xuan Mianyu, Peng Yunzhang, Wen Xiang, Shen Zhaolin, Baojun and former university scholar Gui Liang enter the palace to meet you!" ”

After the eunuch rushed out of the palace to deliver the decree, the devil six, who had changed into the county court uniform, was quickly led by the eunuch to Ci'an and Cixi, and when the uncle and sister-in-law reunited, the devil six and Ci'an and Cixi were all wet with tears, and they were all glad that the plan to survive in death was successful, and together they successfully got rid of the control and threat of the eight ministers of Gu Ming. At the end, Ci'an also shed tears to Cixi and said: "Thanks to my sister's clever plan to bend and seek justice, otherwise, I am afraid that none of our sisters and Prince Gong will be able to return to the capital." ”

"Sister, now is not the time to celebrate." Cixi wiped her tears and said: "We must immediately announce the crimes of Sushun and other rebellious ministers and thieves, seize the moral opportunity, and immediately mobilize the Gyeonggi garrison to arrest the thieves Jaewon and Sushun, and we must not be careless." ”

When Ci'an nodded tearfully, the prince and the prince on the other side couldn't wait to say: "The two queen mothers can rest assured, the old prince Hui, the generals under the command of the monk prince, as well as the governor of Zhili, Hengfu and the governor of Zhili, Leshan, have all written to express their allegiance to you and the emperor, as long as you have an edict, all the troops in the capital and Zhili will immediately obey your orders." ”

Ci'an and Cixi were overjoyed when they heard this, and they hurriedly asked the prince to personally write the edict, and the soldiers and horses listened to it. As a result, it was also at this time that Devil Six seized the opportunity to ask: "Two Queen Mothers, what should Wu Chaoyue do there?" We were about to discuss how to deal with this dog minion that day when we were interrupted, and we had to quickly find a way to prevent this dog minion from jumping off the wall. ”

"Don't worry, we have already made arrangements." Cixi smiled slightly, and said with a somewhat hideous smile: "Hunan Governor Chong'en will clean him up for us!" If it goes well, before Wu Chaoyue knows the situation on Su Shun's side, Chong'en will already arrest him! ”

"Is Chong'en sure?" Devil Six hurriedly asked again.

"As long as Chong Aiqing acts according to the clever plan of this palace, he must be sure." Cixi replied confidently, and said even more confidently: "And even if Chong Aiqing fails to succeed, Wu Chaoyue will definitely not know that we want to get rid of him, and we can continue to deal with him in other ways!" ”

On that day, Ci'an and Cixi discussed with the civil and military officials who were not among the people who could not be among the fateful ones until late at night. Early the next morning, Ci'an and Cixi ordered to ring the Jingyang bell again, summoned all the civil and military officials in Beijing to enter the court, and announced two crimes of the Sushun group on the same day - first, the refusal to make peace with all their hearts, resulting in Xianfeng Bei Hunting and the capital being disturbed! Second, change the will without permission and obstruct the curtain!

In addition, Ci'an and Cixi issued an edict in the same dynasty, and returned the six princes of the devil, the king of the government, the minister of the foreman, and Peng Yunzhang and Wenxiang as the minister of military aircraft. At the same time, an edict was issued to remove all the positions of the eight ministers of Gu Ming, and the prince of Feng was appointed as the commander of the infantry army to take over the military power of the forbidden army, and was also in charge of the forward battalion.

Not to mention, Ci'an and Cixi's decision has really won the support of countless soldiers and civilians in the capital! - At least the streets and alleys of the city are full of singing and dancing, and the sound of joy is like thunder!

"The Queen Mother! The Emperor Shengming! Su Shun, who stopped our banner people's food and pay to the Han people, should be cut by a thousand knives and executed by Ling Chi! (To be continued.) )
