As soon as she entered the Russian Legation, Cixi, who was extremely dissatisfied with the expression of her Russian friends, told Ignatiev, who was already in a hurry in the Legation, and Putiatin, who followed her. This young queen mother has a big temper and a strong mouth, which is a well-known thing in the Manchu court of the Qing Dynasty, but it is the first time for her to not even give face to her foreign friends like today.

Despite her ugly face, and despite the bitterness of her words, Ignatiev and Putiyatin did not have the slightest strength to refute. It's been a commotion for almost half a night, and the sky is about to brighten, but the entire inner city is still turning upside down, and Yi Xin and the others are still stubbornly cowering in the Forbidden City, which is basically a small Forbidden City in their opinion. What else is there to say, complain about not daring to use cannons? Why is Li Hongzhang's army so powerful, and it is copied to the back of the Daqing Gate without using artillery? What's more, why didn't Li Hongzhang's soldiers stop him from burning the Yiwang Ancestral Hall, causing trouble in the neighborhood, and the southern half of Dongjiang Rice Lane was burned to a mess, almost affecting his own legation. Especially this fire attracted chaos soldiers who didn't know where they jumped out, and almost "intercepted" the queen mother of the Great Qing Kingdom.

"Your understanding of many things in our Daqing is only superficial." Cixi gasped angrily, "I said earlier, you underestimated them. Whoever is a thief is always weak-hearted, and at the slightest hint of wind and grass, they will be like frightened rabbits. But you just don't believe. It doesn't matter if you don't believe it, since they are on guard in the palace and can't attack it for a while, why don't they hurry up and pacify those rabble in the inner city? ”

Speaking of this, Cixi's white face was even more white and terrifying, she suddenly pointed at Li Hongzhang, who was bowing and huddled by the door, and her originally sharp voice became more and more shrill and harsh, "Li Hongzhang, you have made great contributions to the Qing Dynasty, and you have saved my driver twice (the first time was to force the Russians to fight against Xin, and the second time happened not long ago. When Cixi's cart was about to approach the Russian legation under the escort of Rong Lu, suddenly a group of Qing soldiers intercepted them head-on, if it wasn't for Li Hongzhang's timely arrival, the queen mother was afraid that she would die in this group of rebels), but you are an out-and-out bastard. How many times have I told you, those who achieve great things must be broad-minded, and look at you again, your whole body still exudes the rancid smell of you poor and sour people, small belly chicken intestines. A rotten ancestral hall, what are you burning it in a hurry now? Do you know how many fires in the capital have been ignited by your fire? Holding books and pointing fingers every day, I'm afraid that the world can't fit you, why don't you use your brain? Today this is not a war, just a few rebellious minions. Even if those dog slaves can last until dawn, as long as they are in the besieged palace, where not even a fly can fly, when they see the whole city quietly as if nothing has happened, they will be more scared than seeing a capital where chickens fly and dogs jump! ”

"Plop ......" Li Hongzhang knelt on the ground sweating profusely, shaking all over his body into chaff, "It's too ...... The queen mother, the slave is guilty......"

"I'll talk about it later," Cixi snorted hatefully, and pointed her hand out of the door, "I'll go with Rong Lu immediately and put all the mess you have caused me to peace." There are our Russian friends in charge of the palace, so you don't need to get involved. ”

"Yes...... Be...... The minions will go immediately......" Li Hongzhang quickly got up.

"You...... You're a little bit worse than Bai Bai. Cixi looked at Li Hongzhang, who had retreated to the door, and let out a long sigh. Then, she turned to Ignatiev and Putyatin, "Two adults, I have more words today, but I can't say it." ”

"Understand...... Understand ......" Igonatiev nodded awkwardly.

"Actually...... In fact...... Now it seems that we have indeed made a mistake in judgment. But......" Putiyating looked at the door that had been closed, "Lord Li Hongzhang is still very capable, will you ...... if you scold him so much?"

"Giggles...... Cixi smiled, her shoulders trembling with laughter, "Lord Advisor, they all say that you are a China expert, but you don't know much about this place. What we pay attention to here is that only under the stick can we produce filial piety, how can we become successful without fighting? This is the real way of employing people. ”

"Huh...... Hehe...... Queen Mother, do you want to force Lord Li Hongzhang to compete with Lord Bai Ye, Gao Ming...... It's really brilliant...... Remove him Li Hongzhang doesn't want to continue to work in the officialdom, otherwise, hehe...... "Puti Yating really feels more and more that this queen mother is not ordinary.

"Your Majesty the Empress Dowager," Ignatiev looked at Cixi humbly, "according to your intentions, you will leave the palace aside for the time being, and concentrate your forces to stabilize the whole city." But can you be sure that Yi Xin will be willing to be caught in a short period of time? ”

"It's not that I don't want to fight," Cixi sighed softly, "Although I have pacified Gui Liang and his gang, the other forces outside the palace are still not small, and if they are not suppressed, it will add a lot of trouble to us." Other than that...... In addition, from the team of people who could run to the Old Summer Palace to attack me, I thought of a problem. According to the news that Bai Ye got, that horse team turned out to be a horse team that was loyal to save **, and there was no such horse team around the capital, so where did they come from? ”

"You mean...... They secretly sent troops and horses back to Beijing from outside? Putiyatin was stunned.

"I can only explain it this way, Yi Xin is not a fool." Cixi nodded lightly, "The most important thing is more than that, since they dare to send people back to Beijing, it is impossible to have only this one team, this is what I am most worried about." As for the minions in the palace......"

Cixi slowly stomped a few steps, "high heels" clucking on the wooden floor, and for a moment, she stopped, and looked at Igonatiev and Putyatin with a pair of big watery eyes, "If they have to survive today's daytime and wait until night, then call that Li Hongzhang, who likes to play with fire, to enjoy it again, and burn who he is...... Burn down the entire palace. ”

"This ......," Ignatiev and Putiyatin looked at each other in surprise.

"When the time comes, it will be said to the outside world that Yi Xin, this gang of dog slaves, is coercing the emperor." Cixi smiled faintly, "The two-legged toad can't be found, who can not find the two-legged one?" The Qing Dynasty lacks everything, that is, there is no shortage of people. ”

For Monk Greenqin, who finally entered the inner city from Chongwen Gate, every step was too difficult. Although Yi Xin and Duanhua had made appropriate arrangements for the defense of the nine gates in the inner city, due to Yi Xin's hesitation, there was no real specific contingency plan at all. Those troops who were originally loyal to Yi Xin's party, because there were no specific targets for attack after the incident began, let alone a unified identification mark, plus they didn't know that Yi Xun and others had defected, and as soon as the artillery fire in the palace rang out, this side was all in chaos.

Just like the army that Cixi Luan encountered near the Tsarist Russian Legation in Mixiang on the Dongjiang River, the generals who led the team originally wanted to attack the Russian Legation in the chaos and contain the Tsarist Russians who were attacking the palace, but they didn't want to meet Cixi and their team. The general who led the team did not realize that he was meeting an opponent at first, but mistakenly thought that it was just a friendly army like himself who had come to attack the Russian legation. It was only because he recognized Rong Lu in the opposing army that he changed his judgment.

It's a pity that just when the two sides just started to fight, Li Hongzhang, who received Cixi's edict and was also going to the legation, just stopped and killed. Tang Dingkui and Cheng Xueqi, the two fierce generals under Li Hongzhang, will never be familiar with the officials in the capital, and the general who led the team thought that he had come to his own reinforcements, and in a daze, he died in a pool of blood. As soon as the official died, the remnants of the army suddenly collapsed.

And today's monk Grinqin is still encountering this problem. Deshengmen and Andingmen were lost at the same time, and he concluded that the main force of Tsarist Russia must be to attack Di'anmen nearby, so as soon as he entered Chongwenmen, he commanded his men and horses to plan to quickly advance north, and stabbed obliquely to punch the Tsarist Russians who attacked Di'anmen. But who knows, when I walked away all the way, I looked up and saw that there were almost all kinds of chaotic soldiers, and he shouted wrong when he hit this, and he was beaten again if he didn't hit that. In the end, Monk Greenqin gritted his teeth, whoever loves his mother is who, as long as he stands in the way, he will kill him.

Walking all the way and killing all the way, not to mention that the elite soldiers have already become a tired army, when he barely approached Di'anmen, before he could think about whether to attack immediately or take a breath for a while, Li Hongzhang and Rong Lu followed closely and bit up.
