Of course, the most unlucky people in the world are definitely not England and Spain, and there are even more unlucky than them, which are naturally the Manchurian aristocracy of Little Japan and Beijing City in the east. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Needless to say, little Japan is now frightened, as long as they can avoid the disaster in front of them, even if the emperor crawls to Tianjin on his knees, he is willing!

In Beijing City, Zeng Guofan and Cao Yuying couldn't care about their old age and infirmity, jumped on their horses, and ran back to Beijing City as fast as possible.

"What? Guo Ye really wants to attack Beijing City? ”

Yixin heard the words of Zeng Guofan and Cao Yuying, he was shocked beyond measure, and jumped up all of a sudden, and the Empress Dowager Ci'an, who was sitting on the side, was even more bloodless, this time it was really self-inflicted, and he regretted not being at the beginning, as long as he escaped from the capital earlier, even if he fled to Fengtian and avoided the foreigners, if he didn't sign these two humiliating treaties, everything would take a turn for the better, and now the two humiliating treaties have completely cut off Guo Ye's relationship with the imperial court, now it's good!

"When the queen mother, the prince, and the ministers returned, Yan Chunyu, a fierce general under Guo Ye, had already mobilized two divisions of 30,000 troops to march in the direction of the capital, and now I am afraid that I have passed Langfang and marched towards Tongzhou!"

Thirty thousand Lu troops!

Yixin's head was buzzing and he thought, even the foreigners are not the opponents of the Lu army, and now just with these rabble in the capital, where is the opponent of the Lu army? I'm afraid that in less than three days, the entire city of Beijing will fall!

"Two Aiqing, isn't there a day for the better?"

Empress Dowager Ci'an said in a trembling voice.

"Queen Mother,"

Zeng Guofan smiled bitterly: "This time Guo Ye is iron-hearted, he doesn't have to treat the imperial court?" It's just that he is determined to center China, and it is impossible to leave any fetters, and the minister and Lord Cao even said that he would co-regent the government with Prince Gong and that he would command the military power of the whole country, but he still did not agree, but I was afraid that there was no room for negotiation, did we have any other room? ”

"Our Lady of the Queen Mother!"

Ci'an closed his eyes and thought for a moment before he replied in a trembling voice: "Now maybe only the Queen Mother can turn the situation around......"

"Our Lady of the Queen Mother?"

Several people were stunned.

"Queen Mother, this Queen Mother, this Queen Mother is now far away in the United States, and the whip is beyond her reach, and even if she has a close relationship with Guo Ye, your relationship with Prince Gong and Guo Ye is not bad, Prince Gong is his Bole, and the emperor back then was even more kind to Guo Ye......"

Ci'an replied with difficulty: "Although the mourning family can't be sure, there may be a relationship between Guo Ye and the Queen Mother that exceeds the normal morality of the monarch and the minister......

"What? No way! Queen Mother, these words must not be easily spoken, it is a matter of the face of the court and the dignity of the royal family......"

Zeng Guofan on the side knelt down first, this matter is not an ordinary thing, once it is really recognized as true, then the royal family is disgraced, the queen mother and the minister are cheating? But when you think about it, it makes you want to commit suicide again!

"Aiqing, this matter has been hidden in the bottom of my heart for quite some time, but because there is no real evidence, it has been buried in my heart, but at this time, it is by no means empty, and now the court is in danger, even if we can't be sure of the relationship between the Queen Mother and Guo Ye, we must give it a try, the dead horse is regarded as a live horse doctor, maybe Guo Ye can see the love of the Queen Mother, let go of the court, as long as we can survive it, we are working hard in the future to try to recover......"

"This ......"

Prince Gong frowned, this matter shocked him too much, the imperial sister-in-law had an affair with the minister? This is simply ridiculous to the extreme, even if you think about it, as the first prince, he is humiliated!

"Well, anyway, let's give it a try! Immediately send an urgent telegram to the United States, asking the Queen Mother to come forward, no matter what, to stop Guo Ye's further actions! ”

It's just that what they don't know now, where can the current Queen Mother be contacted? Half a year has passed, Cixi has been eight or nine months pregnant, living in a simple house, almost everyone can't see her, the most important thing is that He Tengjiao has already arranged a lot of guards around the Queen Mother, even if others break in, it is impossible to see this high-ranking Queen Mother!

At this time, a little eunuch hurriedly ran in, "Empress Dowager Qi, Prince Qigong Gong, and Lord Wang Huanzhang, the Admiral of the Nine Gates, are asking for an audience outside the palace gate, and there is something important to report!" ”

Prince Gong raised his eyebrows and shouted: "Xuan, immediately announce that Wang Huanzhang will meet you!" ”

After a short time, Wang Huanzhang hurriedly broke in from the outside: "Wang Huanzhang, the commander of the Nine Gates, knocked on the queen mother and the queen mother, and asked the queen mother to say goodbye." ”

Ci'an waved his hand weakly and replied, "Okay, get up, Wang Aiqing, what's important to you?" ”

Wang Huanzhang said respectfully: "The queen mother, the scouts sent by the ministers have found that a large force of the Lu army is rushing in the direction of the capital, and now it has passed Langfang, and the forward is pointing directly at Tongxian......"

"What!"

Several people were shocked, they didn't expect Lu Jun to rush up so quickly! They have already arrived at the edge of Tongxian County, and it is only more than a hundred miles away from the Forbidden City!

"Aiqing, immediately assemble heavy troops and deploy them in Tongxian, and you must block the attack of the Lu army!"

Ci'an said urgently.

"Queen Mother,"

Wang Huanzhang smiled bitterly: "There are at least 20,000 or 30,000 people in the Lu army, these people have even defeated the ferocious foreign devils, these troops in our Beijing camp are not opponents at all, not to mention that now there are only 50,000 people, even if it is 100,000 people, it is in vain, it is completely vulnerable in front of the real hero......

Vulnerable......

Wang Huanzhang is right, the current Beijing camp does not have any combat power at all, not to mention withstanding the attack of the Lu army, even if it fights with the Spanish army or even the Japanese army, it will definitely be defeated, the combat effectiveness is so low that it has reached the point of no return, how to fight?

How is it good?

Several people in the hall looked at each other, completely out of mind, and even a general like Wang Huanzhang had no confidence, wouldn't it be more vain to take others?

"Wang Aiqing, you and Guo Ye have always been good friends, if you are asked to go to Tianjin to persuade Guo Ye to stop the war, are you sure?"

Yixin asked in a deep voice.

"Where did the prince come from? I'm just a general he single-handedly, where is your face in front of him? You are his benefactor, and he doesn't even pay attention to you now, how can he listen to one of my subordinates? Lord Wang, with all due respect, for the sake of today's plan, the only way to do this is to patrol Rehe again, cross the Shanhaiguan, and use the Shanhaiguan Pass as a barrier, maybe the minister can resist the offensive of the Lu army for you......"
