In front of the Consulate General, the smoke was filled, and a Puma team broke through the smoke and dust, and the leading generals had blood on their faces, and the swords in their hands were whirring and blowing. After the horse team, nearly a thousand horsemen rushed close, and even the iron fence gate as thick as a child's arm was as brittle as paper in front of this crowd.

The general was dumbfounded, he should have been aroused by the explosion just now, or he was numb to his consciousness by the strict orders of his superiors, and he approached the gate of the consulate general with a large team, and his speed was still unabated.

A dark blue color appeared, short and thin, almost unconnected, standing firmly in front of the gate in the form of a reef, as if the thousands of cavalry who were rapidly approaching were regarded as waves, ready to be slapped into fine waves.

The Fubo army, but ten Fubo soldiers, armed with spears and bayonets, lined up side by side and stopped in front of the gate.

The dark blue woolen coat, pure white belt, black hat with short brim of fluff, high military boots, coupled with the cold light of the bayonet, and the solemn face under the brim that could hardly be shaken even if the sky collapsed, converged into a cold wind, which suddenly soaked the entire body and mind of the cavalry general.

The cavalry slammed their reins, their mounts neighed, and the generals had already rushed to the gate, and the mounts stood up, and the horses' hooves were trampling above the blue-clothed heads, but the thin human wall did not waver in the slightest.

The Consulate General is the legal land of the Southern Barbarians, and attacking the Consulate General is to declare war on the Southern Barbarians, and the generals have the courage to bear such a responsibility.

He hurriedly reined in with the left and right, and the crowd behind him also stopped suddenly, and the people and horses crashed into chaos.

The general ignored it, gritted his teeth and suppressed the burning breath that almost burst his chest, and stood high on his horse, glaring at the blue coat angrily, and his mind turned sharply. Still struggling, trying to make another effort. He was ordered to hunt down the "felons of the heavens", and if he couldn't get anyone, let alone his future, he himself. and their relatives shall be plagued.

It's a pity that the ten blue-clothed men faced his gaze and the pressure of the thousands of cavalry behind him, but they did not waver in the slightest, and all of them looked resolute. He even looked back with a hint of pity.

The general couldn't hold back his anger a little, his wrist was slightly raised, and the tip of the saber began to jump upward, but he only jumped halfway, and he fell down like grass and trees in the wind and thunder.

There was a touch of red before the blue coat, just one person, and the bright red tweed jacket was well cut. The white trousers were not stained with a trace of dust, the black shiny high boots could be rubbed to show the face, and the ruler-long red tassel standing on the straight-legged short-brimmed hat pierced the general's heart like the tip of a spear, making the anger in his heart dissipate in a flash.

The red cloth carried his hands behind his back, tilting his head slightly to look at the general. The brow is wrinkled with obvious lines. This is a very young red-clothed man, and a bronze five-pointed star on his shoulder indicates that he is only a brigadier, according to the military system of the red-clothed army, this is the lowest rank among the captains who command ten people.

But it was such a little red-clothed man standing in front of the gate with a blue coat, and the thousands of cavalrymen not only did not dare to take another half step. The leading generals could no longer afford to be half ferocious.

Under the forced gaze of the red clothes, the general was nervous for a while, rolled the saddle and dismounted. Learn to hold his fists like the Han people: "Mark the Fengtai Camp Horqin Xiao Riding Camp Pipe Belt ......"

Before he finished speaking, Hongyi raised his hand to interrupt him: "This is the land of Great Britain, if you don't want to start a war with my Great Britain, leave quickly!" ”

The word "war" made the tube tremble slightly, and he maintained a posture of clenching his fists and bowing his head for a moment, and then spat out a "yes" with difficulty. Turning and leading the horse, he walked away with heavy steps.

looked at the Horqin cavalry who turned around and evacuated as if they had lost their souls. The red-clothed non-commissioned officer shook his head regretfully, these guys really dared to rush in, and that was what everyone wanted, but it's a pity......

Kunning Palace, Li Lianying casually served tea, and said in her mouth: "It's a pity, Long Live Lord still ran out, but it's not a big deal, Long Live Lord ran away, and there is no need to dirty the Queen Mother's hands." ”…,

Ru Xi's robe sleeves flicked, the tea bowl fell to the ground, Li Lianying knelt down with a puff, and said that the slave should die.

"Little Lizi, you are damned! What's the use of the mourning family taking out anger on you? Don't pretend, get out! ”

Ru Xi gritted his teeth and scolded hatefully, but he felt that this guy was really obedient, knowing that he was angry, and deliberately led himself to vent his anger, what is a good minion? That's the example.

Qianlong's escape to the Nanban Consulate General was beyond her expectations, and it also caused great trouble for her to grasp the authority of the Qing Dynasty next, and she was of course angry. is not only angry that there are still many guards in the Forbidden City who dare to go against him, but also angry that Hongli dares to break free from his shackles.

was led by Li Lianying like this, Ru Xi was also a lot more angry, Hongli fled into the Consulate General, and the people of Nanban would definitely shelter him, and it was pointless to entangle in this matter at this time. The top priority is how to dispel the righteous name held by Hongli, and more importantly, how to deal with Li Shi's anger. If you can protect the Qing Dynasty, anything is easy to say, Hongli will be insignificant, if you can't protect it, Li Xian waved the army to the Northern Expedition, that is, he sat on the dragon chair, became Wu Zetian, and was driven down by the clan relatives and important ministers.

The important ministers of the clan and the Manchu and Han dynasties, why did they abandon Prince Sui and throw themselves to her Ruxi? Not only does she hold the lifeblood of the Qing Dynasty, but also because now she is the only one who has the ability to dissipate the momentum of the Southern Barbarian and Northern Expeditions......

However, Hongli's run, Nanban got another big weight, to resolve this situation, he can't be too alone.

With a plan in his mind, Ru Xi said coldly: "Urgently recruit the prime minister and the military aircraft to discuss!" ”

Without waiting for Ru Xizhao, the prime minister and the military planes were already waiting in front of the Qianqing Gate to ask for a meeting, Hongli ran to Sanlitun, the Horqin cavalry pursued, and the killing movement shook half of Beijing City, of course, it was difficult for them to sit still.

In addition to Zhang Tingyu and Wu Xiang, the two teachers of Qianlong, Fu Min and Cai Shiyuan, were circled, and Liu Tongxun was driven to Henan and Shandong to organize defense and guard against Nanban. The newly pulled military aircraft include Qingfu and Gao Qimian, two heroes who jumped from the Prince Sui faction, and also added Wei Tingzhen and Ren Lanzhi, two Han ministers, who were subordinate to the Zhang Tingyu faction and the Wu Xiang faction respectively, and then two Manchu ministers, Zha Bina and Tongzhi, one was a veteran and the other was a clan relative.

In order to appease the hearts of Prince Sui's old subordinates, he also pulled up the relatives who were far away in Tongguan, and now there are a total of nine military ministers, and the pattern of nine military aircraft in the Yongzheng period has been restored.

Although Ru Xi holds the lifeblood of the Qing Dynasty's silver money, the foundation of righteousness is extremely shallow, and after suppressing Prince Sui. had to support two more prime ministers, namely Chong'an and Yanhuang, these two experienced the Rehe Rebellion, the Guangxu Restoration, and now the Queen Mother is in power. It is already a flagpole of the clan that does not fall.

Except for the relatives who were not in Beijing, the other ten people gathered in the warm pavilion of the side hall of Kunning Palace, and twenty eyes exchanged glances back and forth, waiting for the newcomer Queen Mother to speak.

Ru Xi flipped his long pointed nails and said lightly: "The emperor was kidnapped by people with ulterior motives and went to Nanban. What can I do? ”

After being silent for a while, Wei Tingzhen got Zhang Tingyu's eyes, and said stiffly: "In the change of Tumubao back then, Yingzong fell into Wara, and the former Ming Dynasty established Emperor Jing, and I should follow the example of the former Ming Dynasty in the Qing Dynasty, don't let the emperor be in the hands of others......"

Ru Xi sighed: "It's really bitter for the emperor...... But for the sake of the Qing Dynasty. I can only chew tears in my stomach. ”

She looked at Wu Xiang as she spoke, Wu Xiang gave Ren Lanzhi a look, Ren Lanzhi got up and said: "The minister thinks that the orphan of the former emperor, Hong Dunmin, is honest and honest, and he can succeed Dabao!" ”

Everyone in the room was silent. Qianlong ran away, and it was expected that Ru Xi would push Hong's ascendancy, but after all, there was still a patriarchal obstacle, and Hongli's brothers were still there, this layer of skin was very hurtful to tear up, but I didn't expect Ru Xi to roar so quickly. ..., thinking that this move would make the Qing people feel uneasy. Whether it is a Manchu clan or a Hanchen who pays attention to etiquette, he will muttered in his heart, and Chong'an trembled and said: "Hongden Dabao." I'm afraid someone will say something......"

Wu Xiang hurriedly said: "The son is more precious than the mother!" Hironoi, the son of the Queen Mother! Why not? What do others have to say? ”

He forced his eyes to look at Zhang Tingyu, Zhang Tingyu twisted his old face, and had to speak: "Yes, yes, the son is more precious than the mother, this is a courtesy!" ”

The others sparsely echoed, and Ru Xi said again: "Yes." The son is more precious than the mother, and the mourning family is only Hong's stepmother. Her own mother, Ru'an, should also be honored as the queen mother......"

Hey? Ru An is also the queen mother?

Except for Wu Xiang, who had already explained, everyone else was secretly surprised, what kind of road is this? But when I thought about it, it quickly dawned. Qianlong ran away, although Ru Xi wanted to push Hong to the top position, but he was still weak, it was better to set up another queen mother, and the queen mother of the two palaces would hang the curtain, and there would be one more person to share the pressure. Ru An is a person of Ru Xi, and his authority will not be thin.

Ru Xi's move was already a sign of weakness, and Yan Huang said tentatively: "Now that the emperor is changing, the prince is still hoping that the queen mother will be lightly dismissed." ”

Ru Xi sighed deeply: "The mourning family has always admired the Fourteenth Master, the Qing Dynasty can survive for the past ten years, and the Fourteenth Master has also made great contributions, how can he be ruthless to the Fourteenth Master?" It's just that the fourteenth master was circled for a long time in his early years, and the mourning family just wants to clean the fourteenth master, and they are afraid that something will happen to him again......"

On the 24th, Chen Runzheng was chatting and laughing with Hongli at the Consulate General, appeasing the Qing emperor, and his subordinates reported that Qingfu asked to see him.

"It doesn't matter, without His Majesty's permission, we will not hand His Majesty over."

Seeing Hongli's face change suddenly, Chen Run was so comforted, the two "Majesty" in the words had their own fingers, Hongli actually heard it, and nodded with a little relief.

Transferred to another small hall, it was just running back and forth, acting as the celebration of the Chinese people.

Chen Run split his head and said, "Are you here to talk about your Qianlong Emperor?" ”

Qingfu's answer surprised Chen Run: "No, no, long live the dragon of the country, he is in good health, he has been sick and recuperated, and now he is ascending to the throne by Hongji, and the Empress Dowager Cichun and the Empress Dowager Cining are listening to the government......"

Great? Empress Dowager Cining?

Chen Run secretly gasped, Ru Xi was really a decisive person, seeing that Qianlong could no longer be used, he immediately cut off Qianlong's imperial rule, and pulled Ru An to take charge of the government together. Qingfu's words are also a statement, Hongli can be taken away, but if he appears as Emperor Qianlong again, the Qing Dynasty will resolutely deny it.

Then Qingfu spoke again, and stabbed him head-on like a sword, Chen Run was almost powerless to resist: "In addition, Prince Xun intends to go to the Shangguo Nanjing Yingci Hospital to recuperate, and also ask the Shangguo to take ...... containment."

Chen Run secretly clenched his fists, so that his thoughts could barely perk up, and Ru Xi kicked Prince Yu out!? Aren't you afraid that Daying will hold Prince Xun and continue to make an article?

Seeing Qingfu smiling slightly, the implied flattery made people's scalp tingle, Chen Run suddenly woke up, what a joy! Let Prince Sui voluntarily vote to the British, he will lose his position of calling on the Manchu clan, and Ru Xi will not have to dirty his hands and form an insoluble enmity with the Manchu clan. Coupled with the acquiescence of Daying's acceptance of Hongli, Ru Xi is innocent and has no scruples.

Is this using Great Britain as a garbage can? It's wishful thinking!

Anger surged from his belly to his chest, and Chen Run laughed: "Zhongtang, your queen mother is really calculating!" But I don't know if I can afford to raise your emperor and prince. It's a lot of money. ”

Qingfu also smiled and handed over a letter, which was not an official letter, without any seal, and it may even have been written by Qingfu himself, and the handwriting was quite stiff. This should be a set of solutions for relations between the two countries proposed by Ru Xi. It is not only to make amends for the previous assassination in Xi'an, but also to resolve the raging Northern Expedition of Great Britain, and to stop the sword that is about to be swung in the hands of the Holy Dao Emperor. ..., after reading this set of plans, Chen Run felt that his whole body was filled with a sense of horror that he didn't dare to sweat out.

Even as the head of the Royal Road Society, the pioneer of the Royal Road Doctrine. What he would like to see most in his life is that other countries prostrate at the feet of Great Britain and hand over all the things that Great Britain wants.

But after reading this letter, Chen Runcai felt that his own was still too shallow, and he couldn't penetrate the face of the Qing Dynasty, cheap! This Qing Dynasty, this Ru Xi. It is to use the knee as a shield and the face as a sword, in order to protect the country, and wear the bottom limit!

Seeing Chen Run's surprised face, Qingfu also had tears in his heart. The tragic scene of yesterday seems to be playing out again in front of my eyes.

At that time, everyone had already discussed the disposition of Emperor Qianlong and Prince Sui, and then discussed how to calm the anger of Emperor Shengdao.

The Empress Dowager Cichun glanced at everyone, and her words were pathetic: "Measure the material resources of the Qing Dynasty and make the hearts of the British......"

What else can be done in the Qing Dynasty, both real and virtual, all of them are taken out! As long as you can keep the Qing Dynasty, it's good. If there are rivers and mountains, you are not afraid of no firewood. It's real, it can be scraped back from the grass people anyway. Nothing, the situation has reached such a critical point, it is really embattled, and the country is dying overnight, no matter what face, I don't want it!

Look at the conditions listed in the letter. Confirm that this is really proposed by Ru Xi and approved by the Qing Dynasty. Chen Run sighed secretly, Ru likes this woman...... It's really determined, it's really good eyesight. With these conditions, the turmoil between the north and the south is really going to be calmed down, and the Northern Expedition is no longer possible.

Seeing Chen Run sighing, Qingfu's heart fell to the ground, and sure enough, it ...... The Great Qing Slave Yan Maid kneeled to such a point, it was this hard-liner boss who also softened his heart, and the Great Qing Halal could be saved.

Qingfu sighed with emotion: "The Queen Mother...... Sure enough, I know the roots of the Great Britain, and only the Queen Mother can really continue to protect the Qing Dynasty. ”

Chen Run was entangled for a moment, and said quietly: "If this letter is really a condition of your country, I will report to Your Majesty urgently, and Your Majesty will decide, and you can wait for it." ”

said so in his mouth, but said in his heart, His Majesty is afraid that it will be difficult to refuse.

In Lanzhou, it was March 1 when Li Xi received this letter, which was the result of the Manchu Qing military post and the Yinghua military post stepping up thousands of miles and passing it hand in hand.

After reading the contents of the letter, Li Shi, who was on fire due to a dry throat, coughed suddenly, and unfortunately bit his mouth again, and when the maid wiped it, the towel showed a large blood stain, and he screamed in surprise.

However, in a moment, Li Xi was surrounded by the imperial doctors, and even Luo Tangyuan, Long Gaoshan, Gesang Dunzhu and Xiao Celing, who had rushed to Lanzhou from all over the northwest, rushed in.

"Get out! Get out! I don't have lung disease, I have too much fire! ”

Li drove away the flies irritably, and coughed violently again, and really coughed up phlegm and blood, and he was frightened.

"This woman...... Ruthless enough! ”

pinched the letter and turned around several times in the study of the palace, and finally Li Yan threw the letter on the bookcase with hatred.

Stuff Hongli and Yunyu over, it's nothing, anyway, whether to use it or not, how to use it, people can care about it in their hands.

The things that came with these two people were so sweet that it was hard to refuse.

Asking him to continue to give the new monarch the name of the year, call himself the lower country, and call him the emperor of the Holy Dao with his uncle, this kind of face-saving thing is just a false thing, but it is a very high-spirited thing for the people.

Regarding the assassination case in Xi'an, the "first evil" Yue Zhongqi was arrested, and Daying was sent to the British for punishment, and at the same time paid 5 million taels of silver.

Cut Shaanxi Shangzhou to the same continent, cut the Xi'an army of Yuan Yue Zhongqi, and the army of Huaibei, and there were no garrisons within 100 miles of the border.

This is a posture of not daring to fight back, and he is still lying on the ground, unzipping his belt to show his obedience.

In the next benefit, Li Xian believes that the West Courtyard will definitely be satisfied, and even the East Courtyard will have a sense of pity of "is it too much".

In addition to Tanggu and Xuzhou, ten cities such as Taiyuan, Jinan, Dengzhou, and Hefei were added as commercial .........ports, and the British investment in Daqing was not restricted, and they also enjoyed tax treatment and received special care......

The customs is jointly managed by the British and Qingqing, and the customs duties are divided into 55 ......

In accordance with the "General Affairs Law", crimes committed by British and Chinese merchants and civilians under the rule of the Qing Dynasty were judged by the British and Chinese themselves......

1 million taels of coins per year......

Li Xi can be 100% sure that if the Manchu halal fulfills these conditions, the West Courtyard is afraid that the courtyard will be boiling, and the Eastern Courtyard will also cheer.

That's why he was angry, this Ru Xi really poked at his weakness.

That's right, he is not preparing for the Northern Expedition at this time, too many preparations have not been made, at this time not only is he fighting with the Rakshasas in the northwest, but also fighting with the Britons in Tianzhu, and he has to prevent the Nanyang Dutch from breaking out, and the external environment is not stable, not the time of the Northern Expedition.

Even if you barely go on the Northern Expedition, you will leave a lot of mess for the future. There are 50 or 60 million people in the north, and the roots are completely different from those of Yinghua. When Yinghua swallowed Jiangnan, not only did it have the power of Jiangnan people politically, but it also eroded economically for many years. And the north...... If we do not systematically absorb and melt people's hearts and the economy, and swallow it rashly, we will definitely plant the bane of the confrontation between the north and the south.

So he also hoped that Ru Xi could stabilize the Manchu Qing Dynasty and give him enough compensation to help him appease the hearts of the Yinghua people.

Unexpectedly, Ru Xi, a slut, threw out far more things than he expected, once these conditions were fulfilled, the gap between the north and the south deepened day by day, and the north would become a colony in the south.

According to this pattern, in another five years, in the country of Yinghua, in addition to soldiers and Moru people, who else is willing to return to their homeland? At that time, it will be the industrial and commercial giants of Yinghua who will take the vicious dog of the Manchu Qing Dynasty to squeeze the north together, and then eradicate the Manchu Qing Dynasty and hold high the banner of national righteousness, I am afraid it will be extremely difficult.

"Just ......"

Li Xian was angry, so he was ready to recruit Luo Tangyuan, and simply used the Military Intelligence Department to make this bitch!

But if you are happy, you have to go on a northern expedition......

After weighing back and forth, Li Xi felt embarrassed, this dilemma, two days passed, and even the trip to Juyan stopped.
