Qingqi Garden, Yongqing Changchun, Wenfangzhai.

The sky outside was only slightly white, but the Empress Dowager Renxi in Wenfangzhai woke up early.

She has always had a problem with "liver qi", whenever something unpleasant is depressed in her heart, she will feel a faint pain in her chest and abdomen, and even make her sleepless night, and since Lin Yizhe's death, this problem that has not been committed for many years has suddenly recurred, although it has been carefully adjusted by the imperial doctor, it has improved a lot, but as long as you think of this annoyance, it is still easy to feel pain.

This problem was left by the excessive anger of Duanwang Mulin De Chengwei, the minister of the auxiliary king......

Somehow, at this time, the Empress Dowager Renxi thought of Cheng Weilai, but she was not as hateful as before.

In all fairness, Chengwei has the talent, but he is too domineering.

During his reign, Chengwei used an iron fist to rectify the political style of officialdom, and decisively dealt with the "Wuwu Branch Field Case" and the "Hubu Treasure Money Case", and "sought to accumulate disadvantages in a declining world". He advocated issuing banknotes to mint large amounts of money, increase currency, and promote economic development. And Chengwei was the first to propose that the supply to the flag people should be stopped, although Chengwei is a Bo people, but he despises those flag people who are like maggots, and often says that "we have a lot of bastards in flag people", "The flag people are confused, and they can't contribute to the country, but they know that they want money!" Therefore, he does not employ people because of the nation, meritocracy is still good, and promotes and reuses Guo Yunxian, Yin Gengyun, Wang Kaiyun, Gao Xinkui, Zeng Bohan, Hu Runzhi, Zuo Jigao and other Han talents, "I usually talk with the guests, and often break Zeng Wenzheng's knowledge, so Lin Wenzhong's talent is slight." "There is no comparison among the ministers of knowledge".

It's a pity that because he went to the opposite side of the Empress Dowager Renxi, he was finally killed by the Empress Dowager Renxi and Prince Jing!

After killing Chengwei, the Empress Dowager Renxi often thinks of him. Although sometimes Empress Dowager Renxi hated Chengwei when she thought of her, when she was at peace, she often felt sorry for the loss of a rare talent like Chengwei.

got up from the bed, and the palace maids around her waited to change their clothes, and then the palace maids waited to wash their faces, and then the Empress Dowager Renxi called: "Li Lianying? ……”

"The minions are here!" Li Lianying, who was already waiting outside Wenfangzhai, immediately rushed in with small steps when she heard the sound, and as soon as she beat her horseshoe sleeves, she already knelt down.

"Get up." The Empress Dowager Renxi didn't even look at him, she sat down in front of the dresser, and said in a deep voice: "Take the tea first!" ”

"Yes!" Li Lianying immediately got up as if she had met with amnesty, tiptoed to take a cup of hot tea that had just been built from the hand of the palace maid who was silent, and respectfully presented it to the Empress Dowager Renxi.

Since Lin Yizhe's death, the Empress Dowager Renxi has begun to have a great liver fire, and the people who serve around her are even more unpretentious, and there are as many as seven eunuchs and palace maids who have been whipped for more than ten days!

Although Li Lianying entered the palace as a young man, she also paid attention to some folk slang on weekdays, knowing that this is called "being the head wind", which is said to be a common widowed woman like the Queen Mother.

Empress Dowager Renxi picked up the bright yellow teacup with the words "Yongqing Changchun" written on it, and gently sipped the special recipe prepared by the Tai Hospital, the medicinal herbs that were used to clear the fire to remove poison and replenish the middle and invigorate the qi, and the fragrant medicinal tea prepared with honey spices. The warm and sweet juice flowed all the way from her lips and teeth to her chest and abdomen, making her chest and diaphragm, which had been abnormally swollen and painful, much more comfortable.

She sipped for a long time -- since she lost her husband more than ten years ago, but from a reviewable concubine who looked like a eunuch to the empress dowager of Bingguo, she has experienced all kinds of crises, I don't know how many times, from the first year of Tongzhi's auxiliary prince's group of ministers bullying her orphans and widows, to the later grievances and grievances with the "sixth master", as well as the situation of "internal light and external importance" caused by the local governors because of the suppression of bandits......

Every time she was difficult, she survived all the way!

But this time, Lin Yizhe's death and Wen Bochuan's critical illness really made her feel a deep sense of powerlessness!

Despite this, her thoughts are still clear and sharp - the so-called major events must be calm and composed, and many years of Bingguo career have already made her practice the ability to not be surprised by changes! Although this time the change seems to be a bit sudden......

For Lin Yizhe, she is the most assured! The same is true for Lin Yizhe's uncle, Shen Youdan, the governor of Liangjiang, and Li Shaoquan, the governor of Zhili, his friend, and arranging Prince Chun to preside over the naval yamen, and adding Wen Bochuan, who she relies on the most among the Bo people, is to balance the power of the court and make the power of the Qing school not too strong.

She has long understood that in today's general situation, foreign affairs must be done, and if you don't do foreign affairs, you can only wait for the country to die!

However, in the 300 years since the founding of the country, the Great Qian, like the previous dynasties of Middle Earth, is still the same as the so-called "Shilin"!

And in order to balance the power of the Shilinqing School and the Westernization School, she didn't know how much painstaking it was!

In her opinion, such an arrangement is the most appropriate now, but what she never expected was that Lin Yizhe, the minister of the humerus who she left to her son, would also go with her son soon after his death!

And Wen Bochuan, the Minister of Military Aircraft, who has always regarded Lin Yizhe as a parent-child, was hit hard because of this, and he couldn't afford to fall ill again!

After drinking tea for a while, she easily calmed down.

"Li Lianying!" She put down the teacup in her hand and said coldly.

"The minions are here!" Li Lianying hit a spirit and immediately responded.

"Why didn't you sleep last night? His eyes are so red, like a rabbit! Could it be that you have been in the Prime Minister's Mansion all along? Empress Dowager Renxi asked.

"Back to the Queen Mother, the slave was indeed in the Prime Minister's Mansion last night." Li Lianying replied in a slightly hoarse voice.

"How's Wenxiang's condition?" Empress Dowager Renxi asked.

Hearing Empress Dowager Renxi's question, Li Lianying suddenly knelt on the ground.

Empress Dowager Renxi sensed what Li Lianying's abnormal action meant, and her heart sank suddenly.

"Back to the Queen Mother's words, Wen Xiang ...... Last night...... Go! Li Lianying replied with a crying voice.

The muscles on the Empress Dowager Renxi's face twitched a few times, her eyes fell into confusion for a moment, she seemed to want to get up, but she didn't stand up, she turned her head, as if she wanted to get the teacup, but her hands couldn't stop trembling, and as soon as the tips of her fingers touched the teacup, the teacup fell to the gold brick ground, "Bang!" "It shattered all at once.

Seeing the teacup broken, the palace maids and eunuchs in the room all trembled and knelt down.
