Chen Tingxiang, who was laughing a little inexplicably, looked down at his feet, and couldn't help laughing himself. It turned out that his cloth shoes, which had been soaked in muddy water, actually had a wide open mouth, and the toe of the socks, which should have been white and clean, now arched out of them like a black mud egg.

"Damn, I really don't want to fight for Lao Tzu!" Chen Tingxiang scolded as he took out a roll of white cloth bandages from his jacket pocket. Looking up at Nobanovsky, who was still smiling happily, he grinned in distress, then tore off one and bent down to tie up the open shoe.

The city of Beijing, which was just approaching noon, was suddenly shrouded in clouds, and a thunderstorm rang out, and a series of lightning volleys followed, and then heavy rain poured down.

This unexpected heavy rain is simply a timely rain for Yi Xin in the Forbidden City. He saw with his own eyes that in the midst of this surging torrential rain, the besiegers around the Forbidden City were caught off guard, hiding in Tibet, and in the blink of an eye, they became chickens that only looked for a place to nest. Damn, this king can finally be comfortable for a while!

In the Russian Legation, Putiyatin, Igonatiev, Muravyov, and the Empress who had just sleepwalked sweetly in the temporary bedroom that Putiyatin had "lent" her, but was stunned by the heavy rain.

Because, with the arrival of the heavy rain, the urgent report seems to have come as promised. The news that the Taiping Red Army had begun to advance north after eliminating Pryushenko's corps had already known to Putyatin and others, but they were hiding it from the Empress Dowager of the Qing Dynasty. First, although one of them is thicker than the other, if this kind of face-damaging news is told to the queen mother, they are still a little unable to open their mouths anyway. Second, in their view, the Taiping Red Army's northward advance was, at least for the time being, still in the stage of bluffing. The army that has just gone through a vigorous battle, where can it be said that it will come all the way when it goes to Hula? Besides, even if the soldiers and horses of the Qing Dynasty along the way are decorations, you still have to gnaw them down one by one, right? With this buffer time, they have enough time to sort out the chaotic order under the Qing Dynasty and build the huge fortress of the capital. Then choose where you want to go.

However, things turned out unexpectedly.

"What...... The red bandits from Shandong have actually arrived in Langfang? ”

was waiting for the night to completely erase the Forbidden City that made her grit her teeth with hatred, and then ran back to Fengtian to hang down a curtain again, so that the world could take a good look at how she would rejuvenate the Qing Dynasty Cixi, who was almost shocked to death by the latest news that Putiyating said to her. She jumped up from her chair, and the two jade hands with long pointed fake nails scratched like crazy for a while, and then froze in the air, and her body was shaking incessantly.

As soon as he saw that the master had become like this, the little eunuch An Dehai hurriedly stepped forward and hugged the trembling incense body of the master, and his shrill voice was very poignant, "Lafayette...... Galeries Lafayette ...... Take care, don't ......"

"...... Get lost...... You useless minions...... Cixi woke up as if in a dream, and shook An Dehai's hand away, "Smack! The backhand gave him a crisp big mouth. Don't look at Cixi's weakness, the strength when she went crazy should not be underestimated, this one mouth, straight to the spot like a spinning top, turned several times in place.

An Dehai was beaten stupid, he covered half of his swollen face, and looked at his master aggrievedly with a pair of eyes containing crystal teardrops. An Dehai is really aggrieved, I think back then, he used to be the current Queen Mother Lafayette's affectionate sister and brother who had just entered the palace at that time. If it weren't for his little brother, who was often coquettishly praised as a "beautiful man" by Lan'er, Lan'er, a cheesy "village girl" who was only sixteen years old, would never have imagined a day in front of Xianfeng Ye for the rest of her life. How many times has there been when there is no one, even if Lan'er has a higher status, he will hold his hand affectionately, and say in the wonderful voice of the warbler that has been discovered by his discerning eye, "Sister can have today, it is the two best men in the world who have changed my sister's fate." One is the emperor, and the other is your brother, you ......".

That's not all, in order to create public opinion for the master's second curtain, An Dehai, who is not very old but has a lot of thieves, has hollowed out his mind and came up with a clever plan in the Changchun Garden where the "sister" is imprisoned. He personally went out to find a skilled craftsman, and in a short period of time, according to the appearance of Cixi, he secretly built a "Guanyin statue" in the garden.

On that day, An Dehai armed Cixi with Guanyin clothes specially prepared for his "sister", and he himself pretended to be the protector god Wei Dao, not only clasped his hands together, but also folded his wrist horizontally, and followed closely by the "sister". When the two of them walked into the Buddhist hall, the eunuchs and palace maids who had already gathered here hula knelt down and chanted, "Welcome to Lafayette!" Cixi, who was full of joy, pretended to be puzzled and swept the eunuchs and palace maids in front of her, "Which Lafayette are you greeting?" With An Dehai's cough, everyone in the Buddhist hall cheered, "It's to welcome the Queen Mother, your Lafayette!" You are the Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva who saves suffering today! Now the first emperor Yan is driving, the new emperor is still young, and the king of parliament and others have betrayed the country to seek glory. Without Lafayette, you will hang the curtain to take care of the government, and the common people will always be trapped in fire and water! ”

Right now, the "sister" will beat her "little brother" so ruthlessly, which shows how angry Cixi has become.

"Don't panic, the rebels who suddenly appeared in the Langfang area are just a cavalry army horse that came from Shandong for a long time. Besides, there are still thousands of elites of the Tsars who have been withdrawn from Tianjin on the front line of Langfang, and they can't help us for the time being. We ......"

"I'm panicking? I'm panicking! Cixi, who had been raised in the Forbidden City for several years, played the inherent shrew side in her bones, "I think you should be alarmed." You always take a bite of the Tsar's elite, but look at what your elite has done? Without you, the bandits could still be suppressed in Jiangnan, and with you, the bandits are getting bigger and bigger. Right now, in a small palace, you all have embarrassed you to look like that bear, and you can't fix it with your eyes...... In order to clean up Yi Xin and them, I was able to recall Li Hongzhang from thousands of miles away. What about you? Something happened in Tianjin, not only did you not hurry up to transfer troops from Liaodong to relieve the predicament, but you also hid it. Now, I see you ......."

"Shut up...... You filthy woman is not allowed to insult our tsar's servicemen! Muravyov couldn't bear it anymore, slammed the table, and glared at Cixi who was still furious like a fighting cock, "It's your bastards who only make money that betrayed us." It was your endless infighting that brought down the entire battle. Liaodong troop transfer? I'm just not in tune, how many soldiers can't be satisfied with your ......"

"Alright, my general, don't say any more." Ignatiev hurriedly came up to stop Muravyov's harsh words, "Help each other in the same boat, help each other in the same boat, the more difficult it is, the more sincere and united everyone must be." ”

"Yes, yes," Putiyatin also hurried over to hold Cixi, "Dear Queen Mother, don't take Sir Muravyov's words too seriously, he also has good intentions. You know, for the sake of your Great Qing, Sir and his army have done their best. ”

"I know that." Although the interpreter did not tell her Muravyov's swearing, Cixi would not fail to see what Muravyov meant, but not only was she not angry, but she calmed down a lot, "Alas...... Now it seems that Yi Xin and Zaiyuan, the minions, really fornicated with the red bandits. In my opinion, the purpose of the red bandits here is to help these rebellious minions in the palace, and they will not continue to stay in Langfang as you said, and it is very likely that they will come to the capital. ”

"That's it......" Ignatiev muttered for a moment, then looked at Muravyov and Putiyatin, "Her Majesty's scruples cannot be ignored, time is pressing, and the original plan must be changed. The attack on the palace was coordinated by His Excellency Putiyating, and all of them were handed over to Li Hongzhang and Bai Ye, and as soon as the rain stopped, they immediately forced their way in. Sir Muravyov, you are responsible for arranging for Colonel Kosini's army to clear the rebels from the Chongwenmen and Chaoyangmen areas, and then to defend Tongzhou. ”

After speaking, he looked at Cixi, "Honorable Empress Dowager, for your safety, I will arrange an army to protect you and your retinue to withdraw from the capital first. You can hurry up and schedule it and take a step out of the customs first. As soon as the affairs of the capital Yixin and their affairs are settled, we will also evacuate later. ”

"I'm not going first," Cixi shook her head stubbornly, "I want to see with my own eyes how these rebellious slaves Yi Xin and Zaiyuan died!" ”

"Dear Majesty, don't be rash, your safety is the most important thing." Putiatin shook Cixi's arm gently, "As for Yi Xin, I'll help you see it." ”

"No, not really!" Cixi pouted, "Didn't you all leave, what am I afraid of?" ”
