Chapter 165: It's all gone

Cixi still has illusions about this so-called Great Qing State, and the decision to abdicate is also a last resort. In fact, Cixi had already had a plan to abdicate in her heart, but this plan was still fighting with each other for power in her heart.

The fight and the fight failed to produce a result, and the situation suddenly changed in a while, the hole cards in the hand became smaller and smaller, and the temptation of Wang Lin was not as good as the other, which forced Cixi to make up her mind to abdicate.

What royal family wants to die after they have lost their country? Except for those emperors who regard the country as their life, but unfortunately they died in the hands of the enemy in the end, Cixi doesn't want to die, he also wants to control the entire Aixin Jueluo family, and also wants to control the entire Manchu imperial family, the biggest reason why she has such an idea is nothing more than because the Manchu country was lost in her hands, and she felt that she had no face to meet the ancestors below.

She was afraid that the ancestors would scold her in the underworld, why did she lose the Qing Empire? So she didn't want to die, she wanted to live one more day, and postpone the meeting with the ancestors as much as possible.

"You minions are saying something, a group of dog minions, and the mourning family doesn't hurt you a lot, why are you all dumb at this critical time?" Cixi sat behind the curtain, pushed open the curtain a little anxiously and walked out, at this time she couldn't care about any etiquette and rules, and she couldn't even keep the throne, what etiquette and rules could she talk about?

The following Manchu and Han ministers were frightened and knelt down and begged for mercy, not that they didn't want to say it, but they didn't dare to say it, in fact, everyone knew in their hearts, knowing that Wang Lin would not agree to this request, but once you said it, it would definitely make Lafayette unhappy, don't Lafayette was killed by her before he died, and he couldn't make it.

"Hmph, dog minion, if you don't show the mourning family a way today, no one will want to get out of this door." Seeing that everyone still didn't speak, Cixi threatened in her heart.

If Cixi wants to die, Cixi will first let these ministers who only know flattery in ordinary times die, and don't care how they died, at least it looks like they were martyred for the Qing Dynasty on the outside, and our Qing Dynasty has had many loyal ministers in the more than 200 years of rule, and it can be regarded as worthy of those Han slaves.

The ministers kneeling below still don't dare to speak out, they have been officials for so many years, and the struggle in the officialdom can be described as life-and-death, and none of them can survive until now is not a bully, asking them to speak at this time is undoubtedly asking for their lives, not to mention that for Cixi's current state of mind, even those who have the courage to speak are too scared to speak out.

"Do you say it or not?" Cixi roared loudly with some anger, no longer caring about her identity and status, and roared at the ministers in this court.

Seeing that Cixi was already angry, who dared to speak without opening her eyes? Even Li Lianying, Cixi's closest and favorite eunuch in Pingshu, was frightened to hide behind and dare not show her head, for fear that Cixi would ask him if she was not careful.

"Come on, behead these dog minions for the mourning family, the mourning family is really shocked, they have raised a group of dog minions like you for so many years." Cixi finally couldn't help it, at this time, it didn't matter if the other party was Han or Manchu, the Han people didn't speak because Wang Lin was also Han, and there was originally some sense of belonging to the same clan, Cixi could more or less understand a little, but these Han ministers had to die.

It's just that these Manchu ministers still don't speak, this time Cixi is completely on fire, and the Manchurians don't have to go out to do work at all, and the silver issued to them by the court every month is enough, what dare you say is not good? And almost all the important positions are held by Manchu people, Cixi also has great trust in them, and feels that only Manchu people are the most reliable in this world, but today Cixi understands that everyone in this world is worthy of reliability, only herself.

The disheartened Cixi could no longer hold back the anger in her heart, at this time Cixi was more like she had lost her mind, anyone kneeling below, no matter who you are, whether it is a Han or a Manchurian, or a royal family and nobleman, all of them will die today.

"Dear father, don't be embarrassed for them anymore, just discuss it with you." Guangxu saw that Cixi was going crazy to kill these ministers, although Guangxu was nominally the king of a country, but in fact he had no rights, except for the personal eunuchs around him, there was no reliable person at all, and now it was time for the death of the monarch anyway, Guangxu had enough of so many years of humiliation, what is the difference between early death and late death?

", when will you speak? Stay honest with the mourning family to the side, and wait for the mourning family to clean up after these dog minions are cleaned up. Cixi turned her head to look at Emperor Guangxu, and her eyes were even more bloodshot.

"Dear father, wake up, what's the use of you blindly persecuting these ministers? Haven't you enjoyed enough of these rights? Now that the country's demise is imminent, what you are thinking about is not how to revive our Qing Empire, not how to minimize the losses of our Manchu people, you don't think about these most important things at all, but you are still thinking about how much benefit you can get from Wang Lin's side, and you are still paying attention to how many silver taels he can give you every year?

Don't dream about it anymore, father, Wang Lin's incident time is not short, haven't you seen Wang Lin's style of acting? What did Wang Lin do when attacking various provinces? If he can, he won't fight, and if he can, he will help, but how does he treat those Anglo-Indian troops in Hong Kong? Almost not a single one is spared. The people of other provinces are the same people as Wang Lin, and he can't be ruthless, but when he faces the Anglo-Indian coalition army, a foreigner, there is no sign of softness, and we Manchus are also a foreigner in Wang Lin's eyes! Emperor Guangxu stood up a little angrily and said.

After being controlled by Cixi for so many years, he has long been dead, although he is always thinking about regaining power, but every time he takes the first step, he will be stopped by Cixi jumping out, and his dream of regaining power will be wiped out in infancy. However, it was Cixi's intervention that allowed Emperor Guangxu to have more time to understand the outside world and think about some of the pros and cons of the Qing Dynasty's rule.

Hard work pays off, Emperor Guangxu finally thought of one of the most important, and it is also the real reason for the demise of the Qing Dynasty, that is, they put their status too high, and the same nation as the emperor, it is okay to put their status higher, but the problem is that they look down on the Han people too much, and they don't treat the Han people as people at all.

They have always regarded themselves as the masters of this country, but they have forgotten that her real masters are not Manchus, but tens of thousands of Han people, and they are just invaders and foreign enemies for these Han people.

Seeing that the fall of the Qing Dynasty was imminent, Cixi was still obsessed with power and money, and Guangxu finally planned to stop bearing it, and he wanted to explode all the resentment that had accumulated in his heart over the years. If you don't dare to say what you really think before you die, then what's the point of this person coming to this world?

Cixi was scolded by Guangxu's angry scolding a little sober, although the destruction of the country is equivalent to the sky falling, Cixi also feels a little weak at this time, and gradually can't support the country, the only remaining illusion in her heart has also been shattered, Cixi doesn't know who else she can rely on? Who else can you trust? This was the first time Cixi felt so powerless, even when she was fighting for power in the palace, she didn't feel so weak.

Cixi can't afford the crime of destroying the country, and she doesn't want to resist, and now she can't keep the position she regards as her life, how should Cixi face the ancestors below? Position of power can make a person powerful, but at the same time, it can also make him [***], greedy, and even ignorant, and Cixi has been deeply infatuated with this feeling since she took power, and since then she has fallen deeply into it, and can no longer pull it out.

"Okay, haven't you thought about the real imperial power all your life? Today, the mourning family will hand over all the rights to you, the mourning family is tired, and I don't want to care about it, if you want to negotiate or what you want to do, you can go to the decision, the mourning family doesn't ask him every year Wang Lin wants too much, just give the mourning family two million taels of silver every year. Cixi walked back slowly with some weakness, unable to say these words, and her spirit did not seem to be as bright as before.

The pressure on Cixi is indeed too great, the pressure of destroying the country is lingering in her mind all the time, and the picture of being chased and interrogated by the ancestors and ancestors appears in her dreams all the time, and now the Qing Dynasty is on the verge of death, doesn't Guangxu want imperial power? Give it to him, let him bear the charge of destroying the country.

Guangxu also knows what Cixi thinks, as a monarch, in the nearly thirty years of his reign, the only thing that can call the shots, and the only thing that can be the master, is to negotiate with Wang Lin to abdicate, I'm afraid that Guangxu, the emperor, is the most sloppy emperor in the world, right?

"You go back and organize your family members quickly, and if you can, you can escape, and if you can't escape, there is nothing I can do." has been hollowed out for so many years, and Guangxu doesn't want to give people a feeling of fainting when he destroys the country.

"Holy!" The ministers put their heads on the ground, and sincere tears flowed from their eyes. After all, he has been loyal to the imperial court all his life, and he actually said that it is gone, and the old people like to be nostalgic the most, although those Han ministers are not less oppressed by the Manchu ministers, and they no longer think that the Manchu Qing can perish, but when it really comes to this moment, they know how difficult it is for him to leave the country that he has been loyal to all his life?

"Don't say it, let's go, you don't have to stay and be buried for me. Let Kang Youwei try to negotiate with Wang Lin's side. Guangxu sat upright on the dragon chair, and the moment he became the real emperor, he swore that the country had entered the countdown.
