Concubine Lihuang heard that Li Hongzhang was also willing to go, so she relaxed her guard a little, Concubine Lihuang doesn't like to participate in politics, but it's not that she is stupid, she is just a woman who has no desire for power, and she knows no less things than the Empress Dowager Ci'an, because the Empress Dowager Ci'an occasionally talks to her, and the Empress Dowager Ci'an has a lot of conversation.

Princess Katrina Kafu winked at Gege and meant to go to the Imperial Princess.

Jiegege didn't really want to go, but seeing Princess Katrina Kafu like this, it was inconvenient to go against Princess Katrina Kaf's kindness, thinking that Princess Katrina Kafu was afraid that the imperial mother would be bored in the palace all day long, so that the imperial mother would have the opportunity to go out and relax.

Seriously, Jiegege and Concubine Lihuang have lived in Beijing for so many years, and they really haven't visited, mainly because they don't have the opportunity, and now there are no restrictions on them in the palace, they can enter and leave the palace freely, and it is indeed time to go out and have fun from time to time.

"Huang Eniang, why don't we go out and have fun? Sitting in the car, it will not be cold, look at the snow scene of the capital, and then eat some folk snacks. Jiegege took the arm of the Imperial Concubine Li and said.

Seeing that the Imperial Concubine was still hesitating, Princess Katrina Kafu smiled and said, "Don't worry, I and Jiegege are with you, as well as the president's mother, there are many people, so it's just more lively." ”

Empress Li's concubine was originally an assertive personality, and she couldn't stand such a pinch from Jiegege and Princess Katrina Kaf, so she had to say, "Okay." ”

Princess Katrina Caaf clapped her hands gently, "Okay, I'll go and tell the president." ”

Empress Lihuang smiled, "It must be Xuan Yuemeng's idea again." ”

President Meng was so unhappy when he heard that the concubine was willing to go.

Li Hongzhang was alert, why did a beautiful concubine come out again? Now the identity of the concubine is different, she is already the queen mother of Nangong, but she has promised the boss Xuan Yuemeng, and she can only accompany her, of course, among this group of people, Yixuan is also indispensable.

The route of the play is in the Beijing Division, this area under the jurisdiction of Huaguo, although it is only half a month, but the appearance of the city of Huaguo, has undergone great changes, the wires are pulled up, the simple telephone poles made of wood are up, this is no way, the city is still in the transformation, directly with cement telephone poles, one is not enough time, the other is troublesome, will increase the cost.

The road is clean and tidy, the patrols in China are on duty on bicycles, wearing black uniforms, and people on the road come and go, a prosperous scene.

Li Hongzhang couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "Yue Meng, the speed of your construction, you really have nothing to say, Beijing has only been in your hands for a few days?" It's almost the same as the concession in Tianjin? ”

"That's right, my grandson is the best at that." Xuan Zonglu laughed, did he just rush over? No, Princess Katrina Kafu has already arranged for Xuan Zonglu to accompany her, Xuan Zonglu is the president's grandfather and a senior adviser to the president's office, Xuan Zonglu often attends important events, on the one hand, it can show the president's filial piety, on the other hand, it also gives people a heavy impression, otherwise, if the highest person in China is only five years old, it makes people feel unstable.

President Meng is now, a consultant to the family.

Li Hongzhang nodded and said: "Yes, if it goes on like this, it won't take a year of hard work, the capital will have to change, the old man is getting more and more unable to keep up, brother, you have a good grandson, my granddaughter is five years older than Yue Meng, and now she is ten years old, and she is still stupid, so she knows that she is an angel." ”

President Meng also remembered Li Jingshou, President Meng had a bad impression of Li Jingshou when he was a child, and now he hasn't seen him for so many years, and he actually misses it a little, "Where is Li Jingshou?" Did you come to the capital with you? ”

Li Hongzhang smiled and shook his head, "No, she is wild, I don't dare to bring her here, Jingshi is not as good as Tianjin, I don't know what trouble will happen later." ”

President Meng laughed, "It's okay, next time you bring her, I miss her a little." ”

Li Hongzhang's heart moved, to be honest, he is now very envious of the Zeng family, originally after the death of Zeng Guofan, the Zeng family should have declined, and he completely relied on a Zeng Guoquan, and he couldn't support the original façade, but Zeng Jize was Xuan Yuemeng's quasi-father-in-law, this time, not only let the Zeng family continue to be as stable as Mount Tai in the Qing Dynasty, but also let the Zeng family continue to enjoy a high reputation in the entire land of China! It's just created a second peak, even more prominent than when Zeng Guo was a great minister.

Li Hongzhang felt that if President Meng could have a good impression of Li Jingshou and set a family affair, it would not be a bad thing, but because of President Meng's current esteemed status, it would be better for President Meng to start this first, otherwise if he let his family go to the Xuan family, first, it would make President Meng look down on him, and second, it would definitely make Cixi unhappy.

Li Hongzhang is a human spirit, and he thinks about everything, but he will never show it easily.

Where did President Meng know that Li Hongzhang had so much thought, and happily chatted with Xuan Zonglu about the people in Beijing, and sighed about the last time he came to Beijing, as if he was in a different world.

"Yes, last time, I almost knelt down when I wanted to see Li Lianying, but now that I think about it, it's like a dream." Xuan Zonglu laughed heartily, and at the same time had Li Hongzhang by his side, which also made the old man feel angry, when he wanted to see Li Hongzhang, why wasn't it like this?

Xuan Zonglu originally went to Zeng Guofan's side earlier than Li Hongzhang to do things, but because the level was not enough, he was mixed up to a third-grade official, which is the end, and now, he is already the father of the emperor, just waiting for Huaguo to unify the world, and he will enter the peak of his life.

Li Hongzhang saw that the two of them were reminiscing about the old things in front of him, but he didn't feel that people were publicizing, with the current power of the Xuan family, there was really no need to publicize it, but he followed the two of them and said a lot of flattering words.

President Meng said with a smile: "Lord Zhongtang, between us, don't engage in officialdom, in the future, if you have official affairs, you will also talk to the Qing Office, I generally don't care much about Huaguo's official affairs, between us, purely about personal relations." ”

Li Hongzhang smiled and nodded, "Yue Meng is becoming more and more sophisticated, one sentence will seal me up, I won't talk to the president about any official business, the biggest official thing is to delay the pressure of the Great Qing Kingdom to repay the loan, didn't Yue Meng not agree?" ”

Yixuan didn't speak, and when he saw Li Hongzhang mention this stubble, he wanted to speak, but he couldn't help it, indeed, the Qing court had to pay 10 million taels of silver to Huaguo every year, which was indeed a big burden on the Qing court's finances, which were on the verge of collapse.
