Chapter 420: The Queen Mother Shengming

"What the prince said is extremely true. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info" Lin Yizhe knew that Prince Alcohol said this, and he deliberately wanted to help himself, so he carefully worded his words, trying to dispel the Empress Dowager Cixi's concerns about borrowing from foreign countries, "When it comes to the fundamental rights and interests of the country, naturally there is no way to let it go, and if I am small and the other is big, I might as well negotiate and exchange for borrowing in order to seek mutual benefit." ”

Empress Dowager Cixi seemed to hear something from Lin Yizhe's explanation, she looked at Lin Yizhe, smiled, and asked, "Lin Yizhe, have you been thinking about this foreign debt for a long time?" ”

Listening to the words of the Empress Dowager Cixi, Lin Yizhe's heart couldn't help but feel a pang.

"The Empress Dowager Shengming," Lin Yizhe said, "when the ministers went to Europe, they saw that the royal families and governments of Britain and France were not enough, and every time they borrowed money from merchants, they could turn the crisis into peace." The courtier's heart is very strange, it is to pay more attention to it, to know the mystery, and to dare to mention this advice. What Fang Caichen said is only a rough outline, as for the specific handling, the minister should have a detailed article, and ask the queen mother to meet with the cardinal. ”

"Hehe, Lin Yizhe, since you can make a detailed statement, it means that this matter is already a score." Empress Dowager Cixi said with a smile.

"The Queen Mother Shengming, just a little clue." When Lin Yizhe heard that the Empress Dowager Cixi had deliberately allowed it, he couldn't help but feel a big stone fall to the ground in his heart.

Saying that the Empress Dowager Cixi agreed to borrow foreign debts was actually an important step in the "Jerusalem of the East" plan that he and Nathan had set up to allow Rothchild Bank to enter China!

"Lin Yizhe, tell me, which money merchant in Taixi can have such a big hand?" Empress Dowager Cixi asked.

"Back to the Queen Mother, it's the Rothschild clan of the Tessie money merchant." Lin Yizhe replied, "This money dealer specializes in money lending business, has abundant assets, and has many dealings with the governments of Taixi countries, and its reputation is the first in Europe. ”

"Lin Yizhe, how can this Rothschilds be willing to lend money to the Qing Dynasty? The so-called 'no profit can not be early', what did they do when they lent us money? Prince Alcohol interjected.

"Back to the prince's words, this Rothschild clan belongs to the Jewish race, its country died early, and the people of the tribe migrated all over the world, and there were people who stayed in China during the Tang and Song dynasties." Lin Yizhe said, "The Jews are good at financial management and business, and they have lost their country, because they are discriminated against in Europe, but those who stay in China are treated well, because they are quite grateful to China." This time, I am willing to contribute, which means to repay my kindness, but also to do things for China, to seek China's mercy, and to have a small place where people can live in peace. ”

"If this Jewish tribe is good at business and wealthy, is it not permissible for them to buy land and live in the kingdoms of the Tessies?" Prince Alcohol Qidao,

"Back to the king's words, this Jewish people have been bullied because of the lack of existence of the country, although they have wealth, the country where they live does not allow them to buy land, so they have no place to live. The Jews in Europe lived better if they met one or two wise lords and virtuous kings, but if they met tyrants and traitors, they were mostly the targets of plunder, and their situation was quite miserable. Lin Yizhe said, "Three years ago, Russia seized its property and expelled its people on a large scale, and the dead were resting on the road, and the situation was extremely pitiful. And I, the **** Rendebu, is in the four seas, because of his admiration, willing to come to China to contribute. ”

"I see, I can't imagine that there are such twists and turns." The Empress Dowager Cixi listened to Lin Yizhe's answer, and couldn't help but feel pity for the Jews, "This Jewish people, the situation is so miserable......"

"The Queen Mother Shengming, a family loses its country, just like a son loses his mother, without protection, everyone deceives him." Lin Yizhe said, "The minister's suggestion to borrow foreign debts is not for the sake of fame and fortune, but for the purpose of doing extraordinary methods, borrowing his financial resources to prosper the Qing Dynasty." In today's world, countries are vying for power, and if they do not get rid of old ideas and strive for self-improvement, the future of the country is worrisome. The minister knows very well that if he does this, he will definitely bear the infamy of a traitor, but once his reputation is damaged, it is better to be a minister of the country in the past! ”

Lin Yizhe said, naturally entered an impassioned state (his acting skills are comparable to those from the troupe), and kowtowed to the ground again and again, and the Empress Dowager Cixi smiled slightly, "Li Lianying, quickly help Lin Yizhe get up." ”

Li Lianying stepped forward to help Lin Yizhe get up, and the Empress Dowager Cixi looked at Lin Yizhe and said with a pleasant face: "Lin Yizhe, you can do this matter, don't be afraid of being scolded, there are always us people to bear it for you." This time the establishment of the Navy Yamen, I am afraid that your qualifications are too shallow, your promotion is too fast, and you can't suppress the people below, so I want the Seventh Master to help you support it, so you can do things with peace of mind, don't think about it. ”

"Thank you for the grace of the Queen Mother!" Lin Yizhe hurriedly kowtowed again, "The minister should go to the soup and fight the fire, and he will not give up!" ”

At the moment of kowtowing, Lin Yizhe knew that his step had been taken safely.

I wonder how Nathan and Sara's father and daughter will feel when they learn the news? ……

In any case, the dream of a strong country is no longer far away from today!

After talking for a while, the Empress Dowager Cixi ended the summons, Lin Yizhe resigned, and Li Lianying sent him out of the hall.

Lin Yizhe noticed that Liu Chengyin's face had a rare sad color, and he couldn't help but be shocked in his heart.

Liu Chengyin noticed Lin Yizhe's concerned gaze, smiled kindly at Lin Yizhe, and walked quickly into the main hall.

Lin Yizhe and Li Lianying glanced at each other, Li Lianying seemed to know why Liu Chengyin was like this, shook his head slightly at Lin Yizhe, and gently slashed down with his palm. Lin Yizhe woke up and couldn't help but sigh secretly in his heart.

Thinking of a series of major events that have happened recently, he has roughly guessed what Liu Chengyin was going to do just now.

In the main hall, Prince Alcohol also said goodbye to Cixi, and when Prince Alcohol left the main hall, Liu Chengyin whispered to the Empress Dowager Cixi: "Lafayette, the slave has finished cooking......"

The Empress Dowager Cixi noticed the sad look on Liu Chengyin's face, and couldn't help but sigh.

"Okay, it's good to be done with the cooking......"

The seemingly ordinary answer between the two actually represents an extremely bloody scene in the Forbidden City......

In a narrow courtyard, a group of palace maids and eunuchs dressed in white and tied behind their backs knelt on the ground, trembling and kowtowing one by one to beg for mercy.

"Long Live Lord is lonely - as a slave of Long Live Lord, you should go to the underground palace to serve Long Live Lord Wan Wan Wan for ten thousand years!" Liu Chengyin hardened his heart, looked at the more than fifty palace maids and eunuchs, and shouted in a hissed voice, "This is the blessing you cultivated in your previous life......

Hearing Liu Chengyin's words, the kneeling palace maids and eunuchs trembled even more.

"The slave is wronged! - The chief manager spares his life! Zhou Deying, who was tied, screamed.

"This is the will of the Queen Mother, you can go on the road with peace of mind!" Liu Chengyin turned a deaf ear to Zhou Deying's shouts, said to himself, and waved his hand to the eunuchs who were executing.

The two eunuchs dragged Zhou Deying to the ground and held it down, while the other two eunuchs lifted the bamboo board and hit Zhou Deying's ass fiercely.

Over there, two more eunuchs dragged Du Zhixi, another eunuch of the Tongzhi Emperor, and beat them hard.

"Ahh - The chief manager spares his life! It's not about the minions! It's a good thing that Cheng Belle and Wang Qingqi did! They also had fun with the emperor, and they had nothing to do with the minions...... "After a few strokes of the board, Zhou Deying couldn't stand it, and immediately the ghost cried wolf.

Hearing Zhou Deying's nonsense, Liu Chengyin's face sank and he coughed heavily.

The eunuch who was executing the sentence understood, and the board that was picked up suddenly changed direction and hit Zhou Deying's head hard, Zhou Deying stopped moving when he boarded, and his body was no longer fluttering.

Liu Chengyin saw the blood and brains on Zhou Deying's head, his heart trembled, and he couldn't help but turn his head.

Over there, before Du Zhixi could shout, the same board also hit him on the head, and he didn't even snort before he lost his breath.

When the other eunuchs saw this, they also understood, and all the boards greeted the prisoners' heads, and in a short time, more than 30 eunuchs who had been waiting for the Tongzhi Emperor were all killed with rods.

At the same time as the eunuchs were executed, about 20 palace maids who had been fortunate by the Tongzhi Emperor were also dragged into a room and pressed to the ground, and several strong eunuchs with thick wooden sticks hit them on the head, beating them to death one by one.

After the execution, although Liu Chengyin was sad, he still stepped forward to examine the corpses one by one, and after making sure that all the palace maids who had been fortunate by the side of Emperor Tongzhi and the eunuchs who served Emperor Tongzhi were all dead, he didn't want to stay for a moment, so he hurriedly went back to his life......

Out of the palace gate, Lin Yizhe went straight to Guo Songtao's apartment in Xianliang Temple, he originally planned to tell Guo Songtao the appointment news revealed by the Empress Dowager Cixi today, so that he could be prepared (the official decree had to wait until the new emperor ascended the throne in the name of the new emperor), but he didn't expect to see Liu Xihong here again in Guo Songtao!

"Guo Songtao's Diary":

"On the first day of the first month of the first year of Guangxu, Zeng Guoquan Palace made an appointment for dinner, saluted in front of the Guandi Temple at the front door of Yu Yi, asked for a sign to ask about the overall situation, and then passed Zhou Shaonong's place, and all friends gathered.

Lan Sun asked Yu Fuyue again why he was slandered, and said that the events of that day were very detailed, and Yu was very strange, I don't know where he knew about it. (Isn't this a clear story?)

"On the 19th, Liu Yunsheng fed (sent good food)."
