Ci'an frowned slightly, and said in a low voice: "Sister, such a major matter is unusual, let's listen to the opinion of the sixth master......"

Cixi nodded slightly and looked at Yixin. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Yixin gritted his teeth and replied: "Queen Mother, the minister thinks that this trip to the United States is a must, for the sake of the country, it is not impossible to go, but, just this alliance is extraordinary, there must be someone who is proficient in foreign affairs to help, the two queen mothers have lived in the deep palace for a long time, and they are inevitably unfamiliar with foreign affairs......

Cixi smiled: "This is easy, the Duke of Yasukuni is the most proficient in foreign affairs, who doesn't know that he can force the ministers of several countries to retreat without a fight a few years ago?" With him with him, nothing will go wrong! ”

Ci'an nodded and said, "Yes, Yasukuni Gong, I'm afraid that this time I'm going to trouble you again......"

Guo Ye was taken aback and went to the United States? Lao Tzu thinks about it, but at this time, you must not leave the United States, don't Lao Tzu go forward, you will overturn all the plans made by Lao Tzu, you are not in the court, those princes and nobles will never let go of such a good opportunity, they will definitely change their new policies into a mess, Zeng Zuoli and others are not in the court, Prince Gong is facing the clansmen forcing the palace, I am afraid that I can't stop it, not to mention, who knows if she agrees with these new policies in her heart? In his opinion, if it was harmful to the Manchu rule, he would definitely get rid of it.

Don't go, resolutely don't go!

"Qi played the Queen Mother, the minister thought that it was not appropriate for the minister to go to the United States with the Queen Mother!"

Cixi and Ci'an were surprised for a while, this guy actually wanted to resign, did he still want to bargain for some benefits in this matter?

"Tell me, why can't you go? Manchu Dynasty civil and military, which one can compare to you on the road of foreign affairs? ”

Cixi glanced at Guo Ye sadly and asked.

"Queen Mother, it is precisely because the minister is proficient in foreign affairs that he can't go to the United States with you, the Manchu Qing Dynasty is now proficient in foreign affairs too few, the minister thinks that he should hide from other colleagues to experience, this opportunity to go abroad is rare, it is a good time to broaden his horizons and accumulate experience, the so-called reading thousands of books, traveling thousands of miles, only by going abroad and looking at the outside world, can he have some experience and growth, today you can rely on me Guo Ye, but which day Guo Ye hiccuped? Which day did Guo Ye be dragged down by the war and lose his skills? What about the imperial court? ”

After summoning Guo Ye to discuss, the next day, Yixin personally handed over the fold to the court.

Above the court, there was silence, I didn't expect, no one thought that the president of the United States would personally send a letter of state, inviting the queen mother or emperor of the Qing Dynasty to visit the United States and participate in the victory celebration. There is not much difference!

"The Queen Mother, Your Majesty, and President Abraham Lincoln of the United States personally invited, one to celebrate the victory, and also to express our gratitude for the help we have provided to the United States; The second is also to be able to further close the relationship between the two countries, both for the alliance, now the imperial court is in ruins, strong neighbors are eyeing each other, there is no doubt that this is a great opportunity, once the strong reinforcement is formed, then whether it is England, or France, or Tsarist Russia does not dare to act rashly! ”

Yi Xin played.

The man on the side frowned and replied, "Lord Wang, although it is a good thing that the United States invites the ceremony, who will go?" Emperor? Or are you? ”

Yixin shook his head and said: "Lord Genfeng, the emperor is young, from the Qing Dynasty to the United States, 20,000 miles away, how can he endure the pain of traveling, even if he can always bear it, the emperor is not yet in power, how can he negotiate terms with the United States, it is inevitable that he will despise the United States......"

Wu Ren then asked, "Then the prince means that you went to the United States in person?" ”

Guo Ye replied on the side: "Lord Genfeng, the prince is the king of the council, and he must be in charge of the affairs of the Manchu Kingdom, and now that the country has just stabilized, how can he leave the capital in a hundred wastes?" ”

Wu Ren asked, "Ming Shuai, since this is the case, then who do you say will go?" You can't go, can you? ”

Guo Ye smiled bitterly: "Lord Genfeng, this is a curse, people ask for the royal family by name, I am a Han Chinese, how can I pass, even if I go, it doesn't represent the imperial court......"

Wu Ren's face turned red, and he replied: "Don't blame Ming Shuai, then according to Ming Shuai's opinion, who will go?" Is it the Prince of Ton or the Prince of Alcohol? ”

Guo Ye shook his head and replied: "Forgive the words of the official, whether it is Prince Xuan or Prince Alcohol, they are still a little worse, not to mention their identities, do the two of them understand foreign affairs?" Xia Guan thought that the two queen mothers should go to the United States at this time......"

Wu Ren's face changed drastically, and he shouted: "Ming Shuai, don't be yellow-hearted!" The Queen Mother and the Queen Mother are so noble in the world, how can they stay away from the capital, or even away from the land, and go to a foreign land? Won't it make the world laugh? Do you want the royal face? ”

Guo Ye replied: "Lord Genfeng, don't be impatient, first, the president of the United States said in the national letter, the emperor, the regent, or the two queen mothers, why, what people ask for is reciprocal, the queen mother, the emperor, and the king of parliament go to the United States, and the president of the family can personally receive and talk, this is a national gift, just like if you invite me to the house for dinner, I will send our maid over, can it be done?" Even if I ask her to bring pearl agate and antique jade, I'm afraid that you will blast it out, right? Second, the emperor is too young to go, obviously can't go, the king of the government is in charge of the government, and he can't leave Beijing for a moment, and he can't go to the United States for a round trip, and it will take three months at the earliest. ”

Wu Ren was choked by Guo Ye's words, and sent a maid to the house for a banquet, not only would he drive him out, but he would also hit the door directly, without you looking down on people so much, no matter how old man is also a dignified emperor!

"Well, that's really not going to work, just push the invitation down? They invited, and we don't have to go, I invite you to come to my house for a banquet, you have urgent business there, and you will still resign, right? Again, I have nothing to say. Shall we just quit it? ”

He replied after a moment's silence.

Li Hongzao on the side nodded and said, "Lord Gen Feng is right, isn't it just a matter of getting rid of it?" Invite the minister in China to explain, that is, ......"

"You're speaking lightly!"

Guo Ye said dissatisfiedly: "Now that China's people's livelihood is withering, and all kinds of waste are waiting to be rebuilt, it is the weakest time, there are strong neighbors outside, and internal disasters continue to be plagued for many years, we need allies at this time, at this time, the United States has taken the initiative to form an alliance, and we still want to refuse?" After this village, there will be no such shop! You have to be clear, a few years ago, Britain, France, the United States and Russia were overwhelmed by the armies of the four countries, why? Isn't there a cooperation yet? What about us? We don't even have basic interests with others, who will help you in times of crisis? ”

"This ......"

Li Hongzao was also a little unreasonable, and muttered: "Yasukuni Gong, it's not that we don't want to cooperate, but how noble are the two queen mothers?" But to travel 20,000 miles away and go through hardships, the price paid for such an alliance is too great, right? Besides, we don't know what the sincerity of the United States is! ”

Guo Ye said proudly: "In your opinion, of course, you have to doubt their sincerity; But in my eyes, now they're begging us to make an alliance! Do you think there will be a free lunch in the world? Why is America so welcoming? Wasn't it when I was in the United States that I helped them defeat strong enemies several times? Even if I return to China, I will leave my most powerful generals in the United States to help them quell the rebellion! It can be said that without my help, the Yankees' civil war would have lasted at least another two years! Li Zhongtang, you said, I have helped them so much, should they show sincerity to thank us? ”

The entire court was stunned, no wonder, when the imperial court called Guo Ye to return to China, the U.S. government stopped him alive or dead, it turned out that this guy was helping the Yankees fight the civil war in the United States, this flying general is really no one, when he goes to the United States, he can fight with foreign devils, and he can beat them well!

"Li Zhongtang, I don't hide it from your colleagues, this matter was originally a month ago, the US government had such an intention, but I didn't care at the time, I didn't expect that the Minister to China Hua Ruohan actually submitted a note to the Prime Minister's Affairs Yamen, this matter will definitely not be fake, if you can't get back a satisfactory treaty, I Guo Ye will bear the responsibility!"

Above the court, everyone looked at each other, Guo Ye has made a package ticket, as long as he goes, he can get benefits!

Cixi replied lightly: "Okay, you don't have to fight, for the sake of the empire, why not go to America with my sister and I?" It's just that this matter needs to be well organized! Sister, what do you think? ”
