The small courtyard where Xiuning lives in Daxing Palace is now called the princess's mansion by the people of Jiangning. All day long, people wandered around, trying to see what kind of Western scenery Gege had grown. If it weren't for Bai Siwen sending a strong squad of officials to maintain order around all day long, I don't know what the chaos would be.

Xiuning is full of people, and everyone has no doubts. Xu Yifan's desire to overthrow the Manchu Dynasty is also something known to illiterate ordinary people. The treatment of those banner people in Jiangning Mancheng who have been heavily taxed for ten years is a matter around them. In the future, when the Yanjing Imperial Court is overthrown, millions of banner people will lose their livelihoods, and what means will Xu Yifan come up with, no one will dare to pack tickets! The people of Jiangning are now a little knowledgeable, and they already boast of being the subjects at the feet of the new emperor in their tones, and the scholars don't say anything in their mouths, and they don't have a little hope in their hearts. Everyone at least thinks that Xu Yifan is here, and he is full of personality, so he should be considered the right one.

But this matter is said to be a grievance between the family and the country, thousands of miles of rivers and mountains, honor and revolution, and lingering feelings and hatreds. A Gege drifting is placed next to the young handsome, how she ends, this is really a living legend.

Everyone has also seen Xiuning go out, a girl who is delicate and elegant, and the pair of twin girls around her are even more famous all over the world. When I went out and got into the sedan chair, I saw the big guy looking here, and smiled shyly, and said hello to the big guy. Although it's a little bit of a drifting background, it means to let go of a little figure. But seeing such a beautiful and elegant girl, no one could scold him: "Phew, Tartar Gege!" ”

What's more, there is such fascinating gossip between her and the handsome beautiful mixed-race lady!

At this time, in the small courtyard, the curtain to block the wind has been opened, and the Western-style double-layer outdoor wind stove has also been placed.

Li Xuan and Du Juan Luoshi sat side by side. The three of them clasped hands tightly, and two little North Korean girls stood behind them. The five women all looked attentive.

Xiuning's soft voice sounded in the courtyard: "............ After Concubine E goes, it doesn't matter whether she is a concubine who ventures to open up territory, or a blessing of Bomu Bogol. Anyway, Emperor Shunzhi is heartbroken. It didn't take long for the bad news of the emperor's death, and some people said that Lord Shunzhi took the name of the fool and became a monk in Wutai Mountain............ For this matter, I also asked the old people in the palace, as well as the officials who were in charge of the living and living of the emperor Shi Zhen, but the result was all laughing and not saying anything, no matter what the truth is, I am willing to believe that Concubine E is Han and Shunzhi is a monk............ Oh, there is a poem in Wumei Village that says that this public case is fantastical and magnificent, and it can be read............ Feng'er Le'er, go to the study, count the third book from left to right in the book, which is Wu Meicun's poetry collection, help me get it............"

The twins said crisply, turned around and went to the study to get the book. This sound woke Li Xuan and the others up, and at this time they found that the hands of the three people were tightly clasped together. Luo Shi's heart is the softest and the most innocent, and his eyes are already full of tears.

The three of them quickly let go of their hands. Li Xuan herself felt a little embarrassed, she came here for the third time, needless to say the first time, she felt that she had returned with a big victory. The second time I also came over when Xu Yifan went to Tangshan, although he was a little calmer, he was also picky here and found a bunch of faults there, and Xiuning just replied elegantly. Whatever he said, it was quite interesting, which made Li Xuan start to feel that this flag personality was not as annoying as in the similarity. This third time is good, sitting here and listening to the story of three or two hours unconsciously!

Nan Xinai Nan Yingai only grasped her kung fu at this time, and whispered something in Li Xuan's ear.

"It's all this hour! Maybe he's back! That show...... Xiuning, you can barely listen to the story, and I'll come back to you next time............ If Xu Dashuai comes, you have to close the door! We've got it done......"

At this time, Xu Yifan's voice sounded outside the door: "What story do you listen to?" Xiuning Gege, don't talk about these stories of your Manchurians in the future, the events of the past two hundred years have been less good for our country and more bad. What's the point of thinking about the past? ”

Luo Shi jumped up next to him, and with a snort, he hid behind the cuckoo. The cuckoo was much better than Luo Shi's unproductive appearance, but his face was still pale. Li Xuan aimed at Xiuning and watched Xu Yifan's behavior, she always approved with both hands, and she was Li Xuan's right-hand man. If Xu Yifan was angry at them sneaking over, Li Xuan would have to cry, and she wouldn't be better!

The main son, Li Xuan, was also frightened at first, and his face turned white, and he wanted to slip away, but then he still straightened his slender neck and stood still there. It's just that his eyes wandered and he didn't look at Xu Yifan. The maids and old mothers brought by Li Xuan in the courtyard were also so frightened that they almost screamed out, and hurriedly saluted one by one.

Xiuning didn't move, stood up slowly, and blessed the door, but Xu Yifan's words made her face turn white for a moment, and under the winter sun, it was almost transparent.

Xu Yifan asked her if she could pass these two levels, but after thinking about it, she still couldn't pass one level............ Xu Yifan stood at the door, looking at the warbler Yanyan with a smile on his face. He listened to a tail at the door, and had to admire Xiuning for being really a little cautious, and Li Xuan's true colors of the paper tiger were a little too obvious. One talked about the biggest gossip in the early Qing Dynasty, and the other listened to it like a fascination, and these few hours passed peacefully. Come back a few more times, maybe Li Xuan will help him Xu Dashuai pick up people in the house?

Forget it, it's yourself yy.

The big guy froze here, and the little girl came out with Wu Meicun's poetry collection, and saw Xu Yifan standing there. At the moment, it was a bang, and I almost lost the poetry collection and hugged it together. This pair of little white rabbits naturally has a knot in their hearts for Xu Dashuai, for fear that one day if they are not careful, their little white rabbits will happily jump into the mouth of the big bad wolf hand in hand with pink ribbons. Xu Yifan's beautiful mixed-race wife can't even tolerate the young lady, they can still have a good son when they enter the Xu family's house?

Xu Yifan nodded at Li Xuan: "Have you really found a good place to relax............ With so much to do now, can I still sneak here all day long? You have some confidence in me............"

Li Xuan snorted: "Anyway, if you're not here, it's not casual where I go............ You can rest assured. We won't embarrass you Xu Dashuai, let's just chat and talk about girls' topics, why are you coming here? Go back and go back and do your business............"

Xu Yifan smiled: "Concubine Dong E and Shunzhi's words and stories are called the topic of girls?" Since you like to listen to wild history, I will tell you according to wild history. We think that this concubine is Dong Xiaowan, who was attributed to Mao Bijiang, but after a few years of Duoduo went south to Jiangnan to take it. Brought back to Yanjing, Duoduo lost power, and was actually occupied by the fourteen-year-old Prince Xiang Bomu Bogol! If the wild history is true, then this kid has really developed early............ Shunzhi took a fancy to it and took it into his own hands, and it is said that Bomu Bogol died early, also because of this reason.

When the family and country are broken, it is very interesting for a Han woman to fight for it like this? It is said that the death of Concubine E was also because the Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang's evil Shunzhi was too pampered by a Han family woman and secretly handed it down. Shunzhi was an infatuator, and he became a monk. At that time, it was the beginning of the Qing Dynasty, and in the eyes of the ruling class, the division between Manchu and Han was the most important thing. At the time of the Ding Revolution, this division must be guarded, even if Shunzhi is a piece of true love? The general trend is like this, there will be no good results, this pass, sad............ Luck changes, the remnants of the previous dynasty, only let fate play with. Because it is irreparable, as for whether it is acceptable or not, I don't know............ There are some things, even if you are an insider, you can't do anything. This is not a matter of one family and one surname, it is the fall of a dynasty! I only hope that I can see some of it, but I can't see it............ I can't help it. ”

Xu Yifan was still saying with a smile in the front, but when he said it, his tone gradually turned solemn. What he is doing now, what will happen to Yanjing City, he is not completely sure. Even if he has the heart to control the degree of destruction, how can everything in the world be under his complete control! When Yanjing City was bleeding like a river, how could he at least condone this incident and face the two brothers with peace of mind?

He had already made up his mind, and he had no hesitation, and even took the most ruthless measures against Tan Sitong. I really don't know if Fifth Brother Wang can be considerate of him. Xiuning them, how can they be outside? It is precisely because Xiu Ning and Pu Yang are both rare and outstanding people among the banner people that they are somewhat involved with him. So he didn't want to hide it from them, and they made their own choices.

The general trend is like this, a little emotion, in front of this general trend, is really the most insignificant thing. This is by no means a pleasure for the two rooms of the big house to be vindictive, the warblers to be delicate, and the swallows to be light.

The pressure in his heart was not an outsider, but it was precisely because of the ambiguous feelings between him and Xiuning that he unconsciously wanted to come over, and if he could say a little, it would be a little. Shumei is in one place, and he doesn't hold this dream anymore. The two twins, Lori, had to give up in tears. It wasn't until outside the Reading Gate that I heard Xiuning talk about the tragedy of Concubine Dong E and Shunzhi in the Ming and Qing dynasties, and more than 200 years have passed. The protagonist's surname has also been reversed. In the big era, what difference can everyone's fate make?

The two questions he asked Xiu Ning, even he couldn't get around it, so why let this apocalyptic character suffer from it?

Li Xuan first raised his face to listen to Xu Yifan's words, and after hearing it, he also understood a little. Although she is a little arrogant, she is by no means stupid. It's just that he lives in his true colors under Xu Yifan's favor. She looked at Xu Yifan, and couldn't help but feel soft in her heart at this time. Turning her head to look at Xiuning again, her thin body was standing there, her face was getting whiter and whiter, and she was already shaky.

"Why didn't you say these things before?" Xiu asked Xu Yifan quietly.

Xu Yifan scratched his head: "I'm just a person, whoever is okay will say this bitterly............ In front of the girls, I can't bear to say anything that hurts the scenery............"

He smiled bitterly: "...... What I'm going to do, you should understand. Don't dare to face the reality, it's not a man's doing. Here, I won't come in the future, Pu Yang will give him a big vacation. I know that you brothers and sisters are closing your eyes, and counting on me to solve all the problems, and you will be at peace............ How can I solve it! The world is so big, where can't you go? I can't do anything else, but I have no problem keeping you safe and rich for the rest of your life............ I want to see who the dares to touch the woman that Xu Yifan has been tempted by! ”

Xiuning pursed her lips and didn't say a word. Li Xuan's eyes were a little red, and he suddenly whispered, "I can't even nod my head?" ”

Xu Yifan smiled, walked over and took Li Xuan's hand: "Nod now, you don't want to make trouble in the future...... Besides, what's the use of you nodding? Silly girl............ Don't you know how insignificant the emotional fate of individuals should be under the tide of history! ”

Li Xuan raised his face with a little innocence: "Aren't others saying that you started this trend?" ”

Xu Yifan smiled again: "............ I've just been following the trend............ Let's go, let's go home! ”

Xiuning stood there without moving, just watching Xu Yifan take Li Xuan's hand and walk out of the door with Du Juan Luoshi. The maid and the old woman didn't dare to raise their heads and followed them closely, Xiuning just quietly watched Xu Yifan's tall back walk out of the door. Feng Er Le'er quietly walked over and leaned against Xiuning's side.

Xu Yifan went out, and Chen De stood straight at the door, his face was unbearable. Looking at the other side, Pu Yang took off his military hat and leaned against the courtyard wall, his eyes closed tightly, and his chest rose and fell violently.

Xu Yifan looked at him, and just whispered: "You accompany your sister these days, if you want to come back, the gate of the Praetorian Guard will always be open for you............ However, you have to think clearly, you can't pass this level! ”

Pu Yang's eyes never opened, just leaning there. Xu Yifan took Li Xuan and Luo Shi and them into the carriage, and did not look back, but just stomped his feet to let the carriage drive. Chen De hurriedly patted Pu Yang on the shoulder, and hurried to get on the horse and guard Xu Yifan to leave.

In the carriage, Li Xuan just obediently leaned beside Xu Yifan, and suddenly asked faintly, "Is it because of me?" ”

Xu Yifan stroked her chestnut hair: "Half of it............ Anyway, if you don't nod, I don't dare to pick up people at home. Even if you nod your head, there are things that can't be helped, just can't be ............"

"Hmm............ I should be happy, but I always feel a little sour in my heart............ When you're gone, you should turn back. ”

"So why bother? Don't run around these days, I think about a lot of things, and when I get home, I want to see you. ”

Li Xuan nodded obediently, and his whole body was tightly attached to Xu Yifan. Du Juan and Luo Shi also wanted to come over, but Li Xuan was there and didn't dare.

Behind the carriage, there was a sudden extremely suppressed shout: "Why do I want to be surnamed Aixin Jueluo?" ”

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Nanyuan, the barracks of the new army.

The barracks here were burned down when the British and French troops invaded Yanjing, and later they were built in the early years of Guangxu, when the Huai army marched north to fill in the defense of Gyeonggi. The scale is quite large, and the barracks stretch for seven or eight miles. Before Xu Yifan was engaged in large-scale construction in Tangshan, it was the largest military building complex where the head of the field camp in China was concentrated -- in real history, it was later that Wu Peifu trained troops in Luoyang, and the scale only surpassed here after the construction of barracks in Xigong.

Tan Sitong now spends half of his time in the New Army's signing room, and there are too many things to deal with, and they are trivial. But this kind of power he must not divide the benefits of others, and he must do these things well!

After the new army entered the camp, how to distribute the heads of the various battalions, how to select the officers, and how to train. How to establish and improve the salary stamp system, which foreign company to buy equipment from, and how to arrange it is the most realistic. How should these soldiers be positioned, and they can protect the security of Gyeonggi, and they can also put on a posture of hidden vigilance against the south............ That's all there was to it beforehand, and now some of the battalion heads in Gyeonggi 22 counties have been dialed in. He used to only see Xu Yifan's training experience by his side, but now he has done these practices by himself, only to find out what things are done concretely, no matter how much he plans in advance, there will always be all kinds of situations!

In his signing room, it was full of officers in five-cloud coats. Tan Sitong was criticizing all kinds of official documents in his hands, listening to their reports in his ears, and making decisions about all kinds of things in his mouth. It's time to get busy.

It turned out that the little bit of scholarly anger had receded cleanly on him. The emaciated cheeks are often stiff, but the eyes are getting sharper and sharper. Sit there with a straight back. Everyone also understands that the entire last days of the Qing Dynasty are supported by this backbone!

Once a person is in control, he will naturally have a three-foot majesty in front of the court. These officers, when they were entrusted by Liu Kunyi, they didn't have any other ideas in their hearts, but now looking at the past, the room is full of martial arts, who is not respectful and obedient!

“…… The last time I reported to you, the left mark was 947 people, how did these people suddenly decrease to 899? Even if there were escapes, how could there be as many as forty-eight? Le Hong took it back and understood the return! ”

"The money has been sent to pick it up, and it will be there tomorrow. I didn't know that payroll was a big deal? When you are mistaken, you come to talk to me again! Remember, I'll check it when the time comes, I'm going to weigh all the bags, there's less than half a weight, you hold the top to speak! ”

“…… You are an infantry battalion, why do you need to add so many mules and horses? Saddle leather goods are also 30% more, and the number of horse materials is even more outrageous............ Training now is the first priority, as long as I can practice, I can still treat you slowly in the future? It's too unsmart to argue about it now! I know that you have worked hard to train the army, so naturally you have a charter to subsidize you............ I won't ask this time, I'll wait for you to report it again!

With so much business, Tan Si is not happy with the score of cooking. Whether it's drawing a line, or throwing it back. The officers below didn't dare to say a word, and then respectfully retreated.

Suddenly there was a sound of hurried footsteps outside the door, and I don't know who was coming. There are so many officers waiting outside the door, how can these Qiu Ba make people, although they don't dare to shout, but the sound of pushing and shoving is indispensable. Outside didn't dare to rush to Tan Sitong's signing room in a loud voice, but he didn't live in a low voice, please let the chief master let me.

Tan Sitong approved a few more official documents, and when he heard the noise outside, he slapped the brush on the case, stood up and strode out: "The barracks are heavy, what kind of child's play do you think?" If you want to make trouble, go elsewhere and make trouble! ”

The officer at the gate just surrounded a person wearing the clothes of a poor officer and whispered to scare him there, and when he saw Tan Sitong coming out angrily, he hurriedly called a thousand returns: "My lord, I don't know how to put such a messenger from the foot army yamen at the gate of the camp to come in, how dare the lower officials and others lose their manners in front of the court?" ”

As soon as he heard the words of the Bujun Yamen, Tan Sitong's heart tightened, looked at the errand officer who quickly knelt down with his hat, and asked coldly, "What's the matter?" ”

The errand officer Dongdong met: "The villain is a capital crime!" The villain was ordered by Lord Yang to come first to report to the adult. Lord Yang said that there is something important to report to Lord Tan, and Lord Yang's original words, please Lord Tan put down all the urgent matters in his hand and wait for Lord Yang to discuss major matters............ Something happened in Yanjing City! I didn't expect to offend all the adults here, and even more alarmed Tan Zhongtang, you, the villain is a capital crime! ”

Tan Sitong was silent for a moment, and strode down the steps: "What about Yang Rui?" What happened to Yanjing City? ”

He had an order in advance, and the infantry army yamen came over on official business, and he could see him whenever he went. This errand officer can come here so smoothly. He was doing things outside, and the movement of the capital relied on the Yamen of the Beijing Infantry Army mastered by Yang Rui to maintain it. It can be regarded as a confidant, but now Yang Rui rushed over in such a hurry, and he didn't know what had happened!

Before the errand officer could answer, there was a sound of hurried footsteps outside, and several officers with posts led the way, and Yang Rui took a small sedan chair and hurried over. There was still a little distance from here, and Yang Rui had already poked his head out of the sedan chair, sweating profusely: "Resurrection!" Back! Hurry back to the capital! Don't worry about anything, let's go to the Summer Palace first! ”

Tan Si was stunned, hurriedly greeted him, took Yang Rui off the sedan chair, and asked in a low voice: "Shu Qiao, hold some hands, the officers in the army are all ............ What the hell is going on? ”

"I slept in the yamen of the infantry army, spreading eyeliner and controlling the situation. I only received a report in the early hours of this morning. More than a dozen princes, almost all the leaders of the Eight Banners, plus dozens of ministers, are preparing to concentrate on the saints. Go outside the Summer Palace and cry for the spiritual face saint! This is a big joke! So many princes are leading, so many Eight Banners are leading, it represents millions of banner people in the capital, let them cry, when the people's hearts will float, the overall situation we have worked so hard to support will not be easy to clean up! ”

Tan Sitong's eyes darkened, and his body shook. couldn't help but get angry at Yang Rui: "How do you, the commander of the infantry army, manage the affairs of the yamen!" ”

Yang Rui also replied quickly: "I'll take someone to arrest these princes?" Now the important thing is to go to the Summer Palace first and stop them! The princes all smoke a lot, get up late, and it will take some time to get together............ No matter how late it is, it will be hard to clean up! ”

Tan Sitong took a deep breath, shook his head slowly, turned around and glanced coldly at the officers with their ears pricked up, and everyone hurriedly avoided them one after another.

He worked hard to support the situation with one person, regardless of success or failure. He also knew that in a short period of time, he Tan Sitong had already slandered the world. He has moved too many people's jobs and grabbed too many rights. I don't know how many people want him to die. These are all reasonable things, and he has never been optimistic about his future end. But the man's husband decided that the road was determined to go on.

The only thing that made him incomprehensible was that in the current situation, Xu Yifan was eyeing the south. Why didn't they wait for him to build up the new army before making trouble? After he stabilizes the situation a little and restricts Xu Yifan to the south, he will fight for power again? Do you really think that if you go to him Tan Sitong, they will be able to last for a long time?

Such a court, such a center, how to save, how to save?

How to save!

He patted Yang Rui on the shoulder: "Shu Qiao, let's set off............ Just do your own thing. Don't think about the rest. I'll go! ”

(To be continued)
