Chapter 167: Change
Lu Ziqi knew that Cixi was hesitating, and he wanted to give a little time to think about it, and it was not good to be too anxious, but he didn't want to be turned over like this, but this was also a powerful man who had been in power for so long. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
After exiting the luxurious lobby, Li Lianying arranged a guest room to live in, followed the maid to a temporary residence, and waited for news from Cixi tomorrow.
It's still the luxurious lobby, which is no longer as spacious as it was just now, and is already crowded with people. Looking at this, the people who fled west with Cixi are all there, Guangxu and the eldest brother Pujun.
There are also Prince Duan Zaiyi, Prince Qing Yixuan, Prince Su Shanqi, Nawang Nayantu, Pu Jun, Prince Zhuang Zaixun, Fuguo Gong Zailan, Zai Ze, Pu Xing, Pu Lun, Minister of Military Aircraft Gangyi, Criminal Department Shangshu Zhao Shuqiao, Youdu Yushi Yingnian and Internal Supervisor Li Lianying and others.
Coupled with the accompanying officers and soldiers, as well as the Eight Banners of the Shenji Battalion and the Tiger Gun Battalion and the commanders of the training army, Ma Yukun, who was ordered to command and dispatch, was naturally also there, and the Empress Longyu and Concubine Jin of the harem lady Emperor Guangxu were not left behind.
The lavish lobby was filled, and although so many people were gathered, the large room was terrifyingly quiet.
"You guys are talking, that Hu Lin sent someone to return to Beijing, but to pay attention. The mourning family has just been driven out by foreigners, and they have encountered the wolf at home, can they go back to the capital? ”
In an instant, Cixi's roar sounded in the luxurious lobby, but no one below replied. Anyone knows Cixi's temper, this is on fire, and if you are not careful, you will have to be dismissed and investigated, or it is light, and it is not impossible to lose your head.
"Empress Dowager Qi, Hu Lin's Pingshan Army still controls the city defense, I'm afraid it's not appropriate to go back now, you can issue an order to let him withdraw from the city, and it's not too late to think about it." Ma Yukun broke the silence and persuaded.
"Commander Ma, it's not that simple, Huang Ama has just said that Lu Ziqi, who came to deliver the letter, saw that Huang Ama didn't mean to kneel at all, and his attitude was cold. Even under the reprimand of General Manager Li, he had no intention of wavering, isn't Hu Lin's attitude obvious. Big Brother Pu Jun added.
"Indeed, an old friend in the capital also sent me a telegram, Li Hongzhang is persuading him to defect, I am afraid that with Li Hongzhang's ability, many people in the court will not hesitate for long, we have to quickly think of a countermeasure."
The Minister of Military Aircraft Gangyi had a somewhat submissive look, and after speaking, he secretly glanced at Cixi, and he was also very afraid in his heart, worried that after saying it, he would be suspected of being implicated by Cixi.
"Nonsense, how could Li Aiqing collude with Hu Lin's thief, Li Aiqing is my loyalty to the Qing Dynasty." When Guangxu heard the news that Li Hongzhang was helping Hu Lin in Beijing, he got up and pointed at Gangyi and shouted, categorically unconvinced.
"The emperor said very much, but the resolute army will not be created out of nothing, I'm afraid this matter is a little difficult to do, Hu Lin's Pingshan army is so strong, even the foreigner coalition is not their opponent, plus Li Hongzhang is even different, Li Hongzhang's people are all over the country, even if I can mobilize the number of Eight Banners and other armies is not as large as theirs, it will not help."
Li Lianying shook her head with a sigh, looking very discouraged, although she did not deny Guangxu, she obviously agreed with the situation that Gangyi understood, and began to be pessimistic.
Immediately, the lobby fell silent again, and their faces were heavy, as if they were thinking about countermeasures, but anyone with a discerning eye knew that they were thinking about how to escape.
Cixi sat on the top with an expressionless face, waiting for everyone to see if there was a countermeasure. Li Lianying saw that Guangxu's face was very bad and she looked a little frightened, and continued. "Even if the general named Hu Lin, well, is actually just a regimental training meeting, it seems that the soldiers do not control the inner city, that is, he has not thought about what to do with us."
Li Lianying looked at everyone and saw that there was no reaction, and then turned her head to see that Cixi showed no signs of anger, and then continued to analyze. "Now the thief has sent someone, and he only says that he wants us to go back, and I don't think he will do anything to us. But... I'm afraid they will have some non-centrific requirements, and they don't know where their bottom line is. Having said that, this Qing Dynasty is still my Qing Dynasty, and it is still a world full of people, and Hu Lin will never dare to risk the world. ”
When everyone in the lobby heard this, it was indeed the case, although the telegram sent from the capital told Hu Lin's Pingshan army how strong it was, and then it did not mean to withdraw from the outer city, but it was true that it did not occupy the imperial palace in the inner city, so there was still room for relaxation.
If Hu Lin wanted to rebel, he would have occupied the palace in the inner city a long time ago, and he would not have left that position and squatted outside the city. The people who were silent just now instantly found the point, and it seemed that they didn't need to directly face Hu Lin.
Cixi fiddled with her fingers, her face gloomy and terrifying. "No, we can't just go back like this, when we go back, we can let others handle it, and then we won't be able to do it."
"Queen Mother, that... How do we reply to Hulin? Prince Duan Zaiyi was also afraid of returning to Beijing, so he directly asked how to reply to Hu Lin.
"Arrest that person and deal with it, just say that we didn't see the person who delivered the letter, my Eight Banners warrior is not a vegetarian, so I don't believe it, he Hu Lin dares to risk the world, and attack the enemy of the world." Cixi slapped the armrest and got up and yelled hatefully.
The relieved hearts of everyone just now were brought up again, and Cixi decided not to go back, so she definitely won't go back. What will happen in the future, everyone is uncertain, just hoping to think of a safe way to deal with it.
Not long after, in a relatively simple house room, Lu Ziqi was playing a game with a tablet, only to hear a dense footsteps outside the house, and then the door was kicked open with a bang, rushing into several burly men in civilian clothes.
Lu Ziqi saw it, his mind was spinning rapidly, and he immediately understood the situation, Cixi was going to do it to herself, don't think that you don't know if you don't wear an official uniform, and a trace of cold sweat broke out on her forehead.
When a few people entered the door and saw Lu Ziqi, they directly surrounded them and killed them with various moves.
Lu Ziqi shook his hand and threw the tablet firmly on the bed a few meters away, lifted the chair and smashed it, and the fast chair directly knocked down the two of them. Then he swung sideways, dodging the man who attacked first, and the attack of another man in civilian clothes arrived, dismantling, blocking... attacked, pulled the arm of the third attacking man and rolled over and swept towards the other two men.
"Bump, bump... Smack..."
The two men were directly swept away and smashed into the doors and windows, and a man of nearly 200 pounds smashed the doors and windows into fragments; The plainclothes man in his hand was also pressed to the floor by Lu Ziqi's elbow, moaning and moaning.
Several men were solved by Lu Ziqi in an instant, and the two plainclothes men blocking the door at the door were stunned when they saw this, and they were about to attack with their knives. Lu Ziqi saw that he began to use the knife, I am afraid that no matter how strong he is, he will not be able to defeat him, although his kung fu is the top in the special division, and he will not have a problem against ten or twenty empty-handed hands, but if the other party has a knife, it will be difficult.
Then he picked up a man in civilian clothes and clasped his throat to block the front. The man who came with the knife saw Lu Ziqi blocking the knife with his companion, so he suddenly changed the direction of the slash, and after retracting the knife, he stared at Lu Ziqi.
"Boy, I didn't expect you to be very powerful, but today you are going to die, it's best to release people quickly, wait for the uncle to let you die comfortably, otherwise you will have to taste all the hundred and eighty meals."
A man on the ground got up, struggled to get up, and said viciously.
"Oh, the feast is still free, I know you were sent by Cixi, if he really wants to kill me, I'm afraid I really won't be able to escape."
Lu Ziqi looked at the 6 men opposite playfully, and didn't seem to have the intention of using the people in his hands to blackmail them out. Even if Lu Ziqi really did this, they would not hesitate to kill them, and the lives of these people could not be equated with the will above.
Only because it seemed to them that it was absolutely impossible for Lu Ziqi to escape, they would try their best to save the man who was controlled.
"It's good to know, come with me, and I'll give you a good time when I get to the place." The man in plain clothes in the lead was not to be admonished without denial.
"Haha, haha, I'm afraid you won't be able to do it, I'm here, I'm not afraid to leave my life here. I advise you to inform me and let me talk to Cixi, otherwise if I don't leave the city within three days, none of you here will survive. ”
Lu Ziqi smiled, and after speaking, he pushed away the man in his hand and patted the wrinkled clothes, not at all defenseless. If a few people attacked again at this time, Lu Ziqi would definitely be dismembered by the knife. (To be continued.) )
