Chapter 14: Cixi
Saito looked at the aggressive He Tianci, gradually reined in, looked at He Tianci cautiously, and said softly: "We can't be the master of this matter, you ask us to withdraw from this place, we can serve the documents to the Korean Unified Prison Office, if there is an order from the Unified Supervisor, we will retreat." ”
In the face of Saito's strong words, if it weren't for the fear of the expansion of the situation and the pressure of the Qing court, He Tianci would have shot Saito immediately.
Wu Luzhen looked at He Tianci, who had not spoken, took over the topic, and said categorically: "Our responsibility is to protect the territory from infringement, not to negotiate diplomatically with your country. Diplomatic negotiations have nothing to do with my own business, so I don't need to say more. ”
Saito looked at the thousands of officers and soldiers around him who were loaded with guns and ammunition, and He Tianci, who was glaring angrily, said helplessly: "Okay, after I return to the station, I will telegraph to the government and come to negotiate with you again." ”
Saito knew that further action would not succeed for a while, so he had to find a staircase and leave the scene hastily.
With the arrival of special diplomats from the Qing court, and at the suggestion of He Tianci, Xu Shichang moved to the imperial court to emigrate from Guannei to Yanji, and from September to December for three months, a large number of peasants from Shandong, Hebei and other places were transported to Yanji along the Jingfeng Railway almost every day, greatly increasing the proportion of the Han population in the Yanji area and enhancing the stability of the frontier.
Coupled with the fact that the third town, which had been reluctant to arrive for a long time, finally arrived in Jilin, the provincial capital, after the Japanese completely withdrew from Yanji, He Tianci's pressure was also reduced!
In the capital, hundreds of kilometers away from Yanji, on the main hall of Ningshou Palace, there is an old woman wearing a dark green cheongsam.
His Royal Highness, Yi Frame knelt on the ground far away, and respectfully greeted: "The Minister of Slave Military Aircraft Yi Frame has asked Lafayette to say goodbye!" ”
In the year of the curtain year, Cixi's eyes were no longer as good as in the past. From a distance, I really didn't see that it was Yijiao, and waved his hand and said, "It turns out to be Prince Qing, get up!" ”
The so-called companion is like a companion tiger, although it is such a simple sentence "Get up!" For Yi Frame, there is still an unbeatable majesty, and Yi Frame didn't even dare to raise his head and replied: "The status of a slave is humble. How dare you stand and speak in front of the Queen Mother Lafayette, the slave still kneels to answer! ”
There are many opinions about Cixi.
First of all, Cixi's life history is a mystery, it is generally believed that Cixi is a person with a blue flag in Manchuria, and the jade is clearly recorded as "the daughter of the Yehenala clan Huizheng"
However, some scholars have also put forward a different view, arguing that the Empress Dowager Cixi is likely to be Han Chinese.
In this way, he also has a certain explanation for the formulation of the Manchu Qing's national policy of "measuring China's material resources and forming a friendship with the country", and even circulates that Emperor Guangxu was killed by Cixi.
Another theory is the curse of Yehenara, and the leader of the Yehenara clan once issued a curse, which will definitely destroy the Aixinjue Luo clan. Even if there is only one woman left in the entire clan, this vow will never change. Later, Emperor Xianfeng married Cixi of the Yehenara clan, and the fall of the Qing Dynasty had a lot to do with Cixi's rule, which seems to confirm the curse of the Yehenara clan.
But this is a bit minority, just a curse, but in a word, the purpose of Cixi's coming to this world is revenge.
"It's rare to see a legalistic minion like you these days, so stand up. Hongu has something to ask you today! Cixi flashed her misty eyes and said.
Only then did he get up and replied, "Zha." The minion thanked Lafayette! ”
Cixi waved her hand and said: "Have you heard of the "Jian Dao" incident in the previous paragraph, Xu Shichang played this He Tianci who recovered the "Jian Dao" is still a good person! I asked the palace to appoint He Tianci as the minister of military training outside the gate, but from the palace point of view, this He Tianci is not a banner man, and he may not be facing the court in this heart! I really can't believe the words of their Han people, I heard them say that you have seen He Tianci in Manchuria. What do you think of this man? “
Yi Frame said respectfully: "Back to Lafayette, the slave has indeed seen this He Tianci, and in the humble opinion of the slave, this He Tianci is not a rebel, but loyal to our Qing Dynasty." This time, we have recovered the land of our ancestors in Changbai Mountain in one fell swoop, and the national prestige of the Yang Heavenly Dynasty is comparable to our Baturu of the Manchu Dynasty! ”
There are a lot of benefits that Yi Frame takes in He Tianci, the so-called money and wealth for others to eliminate disasters, he doesn't care whether He Tianci will rebel or not, whether he is a flag man or not, as long as the money is enough, it is Baturu, this good thing is a basket of words.
"What a Baturu! Cixi asked Xiao Dezhang, the chief eunuch beside her, "Xiao Dezi, what do you say about this person?" ”
This little Dezhang was also bribed by He Tianci, which naturally leaned towards He Tianci, cocked his orchid fingers, and said in a sharp voice: "Slave, it's not like Prince Qing has seen He Tianci, but yes!" I heard that He Tianci is still a major general, and from the fact that he dared to fight the Japanese Japanese invaders, I felt that he was a big hero! ”
"Oops! Catch up with Ming'er, I will summon this He Tianci into the palace, I want to see what He Tianci looks like? ”
Cixi would never have thought that the Yi frame summoned today and the little Dezhang beside him had already been bought by He Tianci, and of course what he said was said to He Tianci, and of course Yi Frame would not tell Cixi about He Tianci's construction of an arsenal in Fengtian and the annexation of the Fengtian Machinery Manufacturing Bureau.
When He Tianci returned to Fengtian again, He Tianci really couldn't believe that he was leaving, Fengtian Road was also paved, and even the street lamps were used, and the whole Fengtian was brightly lit.
Doge's Palace.
"Good news for Huchen!"
He Tianci had just arrived in Fengtian in Yanji, and was handed over to the Governor's Mansion by Xu Shichang, saying that it was a great thing! Looking at Xu Shichang's smiling face, He Tianci was even more looking forward to getting the answer, he was going to be promoted!
Looking at He Tianci, who was full of doubts, Xu Shichang smiled slightly and said: "Huchen, the emperor's grace is mighty, Lafayette wants to summon you into the palace!" ”
After hearing this, He Tianci was taken aback, why did Cixi, the old witch, summon herself? Could it be that he knew that he was raising private soldiers in Fengtian, building an arsenal, etc., probably not!
He Tianci is confused, but this matter still has to be investigated, Lafayette still has to go to the palace to recruit himself, and this gift has to be prepared, the most important thing is that this gift must be different.
Beijing Qianmen Railway Station.
The train from Mukden has come into the station. Under the huge locomotive, the steel crankshaft and connecting rod swayed rhythmically, driving the red wheels slowly, a large cloud of steam emitted out, the platform was covered with white fog, the door of the third-class carriage opened, and the conductor wearing a golden hoop hat jumped down with a small flag.
In the first-class trunk near the front of the car, under the escort of more than 30 soldiers in black uniforms, He Tianci, who was wearing a suit and a top hat, got out of the car and went straight to Shaanxi Lane in Bada Hutong.
Shaanxi Lane, Yixiang Courtyard.
A typical courtyard structure, it looks simple and simple on the outside, but it is not a taste to go inside, crowded with people, can come here is not a dignitary or a dignitary, from time to time there are women wearing cheongsams from the house out of the house.
In the private room by the window, a young woman wearing a dark green cheongsam said to He Tianci: "Biyun is ordered by Director Ji to wait for He Tong to take the master, this is a gift for adults. ”
After two years of development, the intelligence that the CIA spies on is not only in Japan and Russia in the northeast, but also always pay attention to the news from the Qing court.
The next day, under the guidance of Xiao Dezhang, He Tianci passed through the Huangji Palace and went to Shouning Palace to meet the Empress Dowager Cixi.
This is the first time He Tianci has entered the palace in this life and previous life, and he can't help but be impressed by this majestic imperial palace.
In the middle of the Huangji Hall is a vermilion lacquer square platform about two meters high, on which a gold lacquer carved dragon throne is placed, behind it is a carved dragon screen, there are six tall dragon golden pillars on both sides of the square platform, and a vigorous golden dragon is coiled on each big pillar; Looking up at the top of the palace, there is a huge carved dragon and dragon in the central caisson well, a silver-white big bead hangs down from the dragon's mouth, surrounded by six small beads, the dragon head, the jewel is facing the golden luan throne below, the color painting between the beams is gorgeous, bright and pleasing to the eye, the red and yellow gold dragon pattern pattern, there are double dragons playing with pearls, the single dragon flies; There are walking dragons, sitting dragons, flying dragons, descending dragons, colorful, and the dragon's surroundings are also lined with flowing clouds and flames.
Looking at the splendid hall, He Tianci muttered in his heart: "it, if it weren't for Yuan Shikai in his own life, he really wanted to take thousands of elite soldiers out of the customs and take the capital as the emperor himself, and cheapen the old demon woman Cixi, and she can't change history, this old demon woman can still live to death (don't change history, let Cixi grow up and die!)" )”
It is said that this companion is a tiger every day, He Tianci is also the first time to see Cixi, and his heart is also full of worries, for fear that which sentence will not be good, so he will give Cixi a small life, knelt down far away outside the main hall, and respectfully greeted him: "He Tianci, the commander of the patrol battalion in Tianzhong Road, gives Lafayette a greeting!" ”
Cixi looked at He Tianci in the distance with difficulty, although it was very laborious, she still couldn't see what she looked like, waved her hand lightly, and said, "Get up and talk!" ”
Get up or not, He Tianci really doesn't know what to do, there is no way to be in front of this old demon woman He Tianci can only grieve himself, and replied without raising his head: "The minister's status is low, it's better to kneel!" (To be continued......)
