Cixi was a little helpless in her heart, her political enemies for decades did not expect to become a comrade at this time.

It's really helpless, the Great Qing Kingdom is now encountering an enemy that is even more terrible than the Japanese, Liu Jun, Aixin Jueluo's family is now in danger, if he is still fighting for power and profit, then, it won't be long before Aixin Jueluo has to sweep the floor out.

Cixi understands this, and now, the thoughts in her heart are not how to put Yi? Lying down, but thinking about how to deal with the scourge of Liu Jun.

See Yi? Trembling walked in, Cixi suddenly found that after many years, everyone was no longer young.

"Minion ......" Yi? Seeing Cixi waiting for him at the gate of the palace, he hurriedly knelt down to say goodbye.

Cixi smiled and stretched out his hand to stop Yi who was about to kneel. "Excuse me, Prince." The sound is delicate and nice for the first time.

Abundant? Puzzled, he didn't expect Cixi to talk to him like this.

"Lord Wang, now that Heilongjiang General Yiketanga has taken refuge in Liu Jun, the Northeast is now out of Jilin, and almost all the rest of the places have fallen, do you see if there is any way to stop this war and bless me in the Qing Dynasty." Returning to the yellow mink fur covered with a soft layer of northeastern attack, Cixi showed a glimmer of expectant sunshine. What does she want? Another way.

Abundant? looked at Cixi, muttered for a long time, and didn't say a word.

"Do you really want to give Jilin to Liu Jun?" See Yi? After not speaking for a long time, Cixi said helplessly, her eyes revealing a kind of despair.

Abundant? Originally, he didn't want to speak, he had a little resentment in his heart, he resented Cixi.

If it weren't for Cixi's madness, indiscriminate burial, and without any investigation, she ordered to kill Iketanga's son, and Iketanga would not have rebelled so quickly, so even if Liu Jun took Jilin and wanted to do something against Guannei in the future, then Heilongjiang could also be contained, but now.

Iktanga has surrendered to Liu Jun, which means that once Liu Jun wants to attack Guannai in the future, he will not have any worries, and he can drive his troops straight in, and then enter Beijing effortlessly.

As for Jilin, thinking of this, Yi? is on fire, and this is what he blames the most.

At that time, he advocated giving Jilin to Liu Jun's jurisdiction, but Cixi strongly opposed it. He knew Cixi's purpose in doing this, but he regretted it, why didn't Cixi look at it, with Liu Jun's troops, if she wanted to take Jilin, it would be something that the Heilongjiang army could resist if it went south. It's simply impossible.

Raise your head slightly, Yi? With a somewhat ugly face, he looked at Cixi who was sitting on it, arched his hand, and bowed his head slightly. said lightly: "Qi Qi Lafayette, what is the point of not giving Jilin to Liu Jun now?" ”

Cixi is not a fool, she has already heard it? meaning.

Liu Jun is now entering Jilin with the three-way army, giving it the same whether he will give it or not, and now talking about giving Jilin to Liu Jun's jurisdiction is a bit redundant.

Bowing her head slightly, Cixi felt a little guilty for the first time, all of which was caused by her stubbornness at the beginning.

As a result, it is already like this, and it is impossible to undo one's mistakes in self-blame, only now, to make amends. Let's see if there's anything going to be done about it.

"What does the prince mean?" Cixi, who no longer had any opinions, asked again.

Abundant? I've thought about it on the way here, and I raised my head, Yi? Nodding again, he said: "The slave thinks that now we still have to issue a holy decree to give Jilin to Liu Jun's jurisdiction." ”

Or give Jilin to Liu Jun? Cixi frowned suddenly, she didn't understand? meaning.

Looking at Cixi's bewildered eyes, Yi? I thought about it for a moment and said what was in my heart.

Abundant? The meaning is very clear, at this time and at that time, Heilongjiang has now relied on Liu Jun, and now Jilin is given to Liu Jun, not to say that the imperial court can control Liu Jun like this, but to save a little face for the imperial court.

Abundant? knows that Liu Jun defeated Jilin, that is, he slapped the face of the imperial court, and he beat it very badly, and if he issued a holy decree to give Jilin to Liu Jun's jurisdiction, it would be the emperor's grace and would increase the face of the imperial court.

"Looks like that's the only way." Cixi took a deep breath, and after a while, Cixi looked at Yi? "You can do it. ”

"Wow." Seeing Cixi waving her hand, Yi? Know, this is an increase in acquiescence.

Out of Chuxiu Palace, Yi? Immediately went out of the palace gate, and as soon as he returned to the palace, Yi? I went straight to the study, spread out the rice paper, picked up the brush, and quickly wrote a letter.

This epistle, is it? For Li Hongzhang. Originally, this letter was written to Liu Jun, but now, the court and Liu Jun are fighting to the death, and it is impossible for this letter to be delivered to Liu Jun, and the only way is for Li Hongzhang to transfer or send a telegram.

What is written above is to tell Li Hongzhang that now the imperial court has agreed to give Jilin to Liu Jun. I hope that Liu Jun can stop attacking and reduce the loss of life.

Gently blow on the ink that hasn't completely dried, Yi? After taking an envelope and packing the letter, Yi? Pick up the letter and come to the hall, and find the housekeeper: "Immediately send the letter to Tianjin as soon as possible, and personally hand it over to Lord Zhongtang." ”

Tianjin City, Li Hongzhang has not known why, not only has the amount of food increased dramatically, but also a lot of laughter. Few people know why Li Hongzhang is so happy, however, Yang Shixiang next to Li Hongzhang is indeed clear at a glance.

Sure enough, the family didn't talk to each other, and he found that when the Heilongjiang army went south to attack Liu Jun, Li Hongzhang sighed in front of the map every day, and after learning that Heilongjiang had been peacefully resolved by Liu Jun and the whole territory had taken refuge in Liu Jun, Li Hongzhang did not sigh once, and he was happy to face the map every day, and he looked at it with relish.

Now, as usual, Li Hongzhang stood in front of the map again, looking at the map of Liaodong again, no, it was the map of the Northeast, it was obvious that Li Hongzhang had used a pen to make some flowers on the map, and the red coil drew Liaodong, Heilongjiang, Shengjing, and even most of Jilin as one.

"My lord, the housekeeper of Prince Gong's Mansion is here." Yang Shixiang walked into the study and saw where Li Hongzhang was looking at the map, so he couldn't be disturbed, so he could only whisper to Yang Shixiang who was standing on the side.

Prince Gong? Yang Shixiang was puzzled, and was about to call Li Hongzhang, but he didn't expect Li Hongzhang to turn around lightly: "Let him go to the living room, and the old man will be there in a while." ”

Hehe, putting down the pen in his hand, Li Hongzhang looked at Yang Shixiang with a smile on his face, and asked lightly: "Guess what Prince Gong is going to do?" ”

Yang Shixiang lowered his head and thought for a moment: "The subordinates are stupid. ”

"The old man guessed that he must have come to negotiate with Liu Jun." Li Hongzhang confidently touched his beard.

"Could it be that the imperial court wants to reconcile with Liu Jun?" Yang Shixiang asked suspiciously.

Hehe, Li Hongzhang didn't speak, but turned around and looked at the map of the Northeast behind him.

At this time and then, now that Heilongjiang has fallen into the hands of Liu Jun, if the imperial court does not retreat, I am afraid that the next one will not be in the northeast, but in Guannei, or even in Beijing.

Li Hongzhang knew in his heart that the imperial court had no way to fight now.

Ronglu was newly defeated, and Changshun and the Mongol cavalry had retreated to Jilin. If Heilongjiang General Yiketanga is not forced to a dead end by the imperial court, the imperial court still has a chance to survive in the northeast, but now, Yiketanga has relied on Liu Jun, and the imperial court does not even have a chance to fight back.

It is almost impossible to mobilize the Mongolian army, although Mongolia respects the imperial court as heaven, but everyone knows it, that is to say, everyone understands it in their hearts.

The Mongolian princes and county kings have long rebelled against the central government, but they have never done it because they are afraid of the encirclement and suppression of the imperial court.

Right now.

Hiss, Li Hongzhang gasped and turned his head to Mongolia.

This battle cannot be fought. Li Hongzhang thought of this in his heart. He turned sharply and looked out the door.

Come to the living room. Li Hongzhang saw Yi at a glance? The key is standing there.

"Lord Zhongtang, this is the letter that the prince asked me to forward to you." Li Hongzhang nodded, he didn't open it on the spot, he knew what it said, looked at the housekeeper, Li Hongzhang smiled slightly, and said: "Please tell the prince, the old man will leave immediately and go to Lushun." ”

"Minions understand." The butler bowed his head.

"En" Li Hongzhang nodded, and after letting the housekeeper go down, Li Hongzhang picked up the letter in his hand, read it twice, and then turned his head to look at Yang Shixiang next to him.

After a while, Li Hongzhang took a deep breath and said, "Immediately tell Liu Jun and send a warship to pick up the old man." ”
