Chapter 572: This Road Is Blocked

In a secret passage of the imperial palace, this is the entrance of the tunnel specially mastered by the Qing royal family. Since the Manchu Qing Dynasty entered the customs hundreds of years ago, although they have mastered the land of China, they do not regard themselves as Chinese in their bones, they only regard them as conquerors. But they know that they know that they have taken advantage of too many factors, they know that it is not that they have really defeated the Chinese, but that the Chinese Han people do not want to fight, when decades of disasters make the Han people themselves kill each other, and then everyone is tired, and then the timely introduction and popularization of sweet potatoes finally let the Manchu Qing inexplicably pick up this Jiangshan.

However, the Manchu royal family has always been in a very uneasy situation, and in order to ensure their own peace, they chose to let more than half of the Manchu Eight Banners defend the Beijing Division, which is also known as the Eight Banners of the Beijing Division. The other Eight Banners are scattered to the local area to monitor the local people, which is called the Local Eight Banners. And they have been preparing, as can be seen from the fact that they drove the Han people out of the inner city of the capital, and all the Manchus lived there, they actually did not believe in the Han people in their bones. They were already planning to be able to protect them from betrayal if the Han Chinese attacked. And their Manchu royal family can be as safe as possible, and they can even escape in time. The reason why they chose to set the capital in the capital was that they hoped that they could return to their hometown of Liaodong at any time in the future.

However, no one knew that these terrified Manchu Emperor Aixin Jueluo family had also dug a tunnel hundreds of years ago. And this tunnel comes out of the palace and leads directly to the outside of Beijing. And the people who knew about this tunnel back then have been wiped out. There are even a lot of hidden weapons in the tunnel, which ensures that no one will be able to easily know about this tunnel. And this tunnel has been passed down by word of mouth of the Manchu royal family all along, and will not leave any written records. Only when the moment of crisis. will let this tunnel play its own role. However, it should have been passed down by word of mouth among the emperors, but since Cixi took control of power decades ago, and the emperor was still young, this secret was also known to Cixi.

Cixi never imagined that there would be a time for this tunnel to be reopened. And now Wang Guorui is in control of the capital. Then it will soon be able to let the Manchus "Zen Concession", and at that time the Manchus will be destroyed. And at this moment, Cixi didn't care about it, and was about to open this tunnel.

"Father Huang, is this tunnel the last retreat of our Great Qing Dynasty?" Guangxu asked.

"Yes, let's go! After we went out, we went directly to the west, through Gansu and Shaanxi. Then regroup and restore the country. We can only leave as soon as possible when we take advantage of this time, when Wang Guorui's traitor and foreigners are desperately fighting! As long as we arrive in Shaanxi, then we can all get the opportunity to regroup. At that time, Wang Guorui will not be allowed to take over my Qing Dynasty smoothly, so that we can obtain a center and let the hearts of the people in the world gather again. Regardless of whether he can assassinate this Wang Guorui today, whether Wang Guorui is dead or not. Then we all have to go to Shaanxi. Cixi said.

"Daddy Huang, are you going to assassinate Wang Guorui? Just assassinate Wang Guorui. Then I can't easily accept Wang Guorui's power, and then ......" Guangxu said innocently.

"Smack!" Cixi slapped Guangxu in the face, and immediately became furious: "You fool, do you think that just assassinating Wang Guorui can solve the problem?" Wang Guorui and his men are not all the way to us. The mourning family is also learning some Westerners' things, especially in the past few years, they have not read less Westerners' books. The mourning family understands. Wang Guorui represents the interests of those merchants, while our Qing Dynasty represents the interests of those landlords. There's no way we're really going to get together. Assassinated Wang Guorui, they can still choose someone to come out, as long as the businessman interest group behind them is not defeated, then they will inevitably be able to re-nominate someone to come out. ”

"You say. What will happen to us if their new leader comes out? At that time, in order to show that the new leader had succeeded Wang Guorui as a traitor, they would inevitably avenge the old leader. When the time comes, we're all going to be unlucky, understand? Therefore, killing Wang Guorui can't solve the problem, and the mourning family just hopes to seize the opportunity to go to the northwest quickly. In short, no matter what, you can't stay here, and the capital is not safe. In case Wang Guorui dies, they will fight each other, and it will be easy for us to suffer. Even if they don't fight and successfully find someone to take over Wang Guorui's position, then their new leader will naturally avenge the old leader, then he won't let us go. So, we have to run anyway. ”

And Guangxu showed a look of sudden realization, obviously only then did he understand these truths. And Cixi couldn't help but be a little disappointed, this Guangxu was indeed useless. Cixi has seized power for so many years, and he knows that he will ascend to heaven sooner or later, but after all, she is the daughter-in-law of the Aixin Jueluo family, and he can only hold power by relying on the identity of the daughter-in-law of the Aixin Jueluo family. So she still cares about the interests of Aixinjueluo's family, and he already regards himself as a person who loves Xinjueluo's family. So he knew that no matter how much power he grabbed while he was alive, he would eventually return it to the Aixin Jueluo family. Of course, this person who loves the Xinjueluo family is not necessarily Emperor Guangxu, but may also be someone else.

"It seems that even if the mourning family ascends to heaven one day, they will not be able to keep this Guangxu child in the position, and he, a fool, can only kill the Aixin Jueluo family!" Cixi suddenly thought viciously.

Since Guangxu's reform of the law, Cixi has also looked down on Guangxu very much. Because this Guangxu is too "stupid", he can't even understand the interests represented by his Aixinjue Luo family. Emperor Guangxu did not know that the Aixin Jueluo family could be in this position, and it was not those conservative groups who supported it? An emperor who doesn't even understand the interest groups he represents, then this kind of person will be unlucky sooner or later. So as early as a few years ago, Cixi also moved his mind to abolish him, but was stopped by foreigners. Now, Cixi also has a poisonous weed in her heart, obviously this Guangxu can't stay, because Guangxu is so stupid, he is completely a political idiot, and he can't even understand the interest groups he represents.

"Daddy Huang, then why don't we go to Liaodong and return to our hometown? Also, we have so many flag men in the inner city, don't we care? Guangxu asked.

Cixi immediately said: "You should be stupid as an emperor, right? Do you still think that it is our hometown, our hometown? I tell you, that it is no longer our homeland, and that the bannermen of the inner city may not be on our side. Do you know? How many banner people can speak Manchu now? I'm afraid that you, the emperor, can't even speak Manchu fluently, right? ”

Guangxu blushed for a while, as the emperor of the Manchus, he was not even fluent in Manchu, so there was no need to think about the situation of those guys below.

Cixi suddenly finally lamented: "The ancestors have always been afraid that our Manchus will be sinicized, and the ancestors have long known about the Wuhu chaos of the year, what Huns, Wuhuan people, Xianbei people, Rouran people, etc., all of them have finally been sinicized." It was precisely this experience that they absorbed and chose to gather us Manchus, try not to come into contact with the Han Chinese, and also let the Manchus not forget to ride and shoot horses, and even raised them with banners. ”

However, the mourning family could not help but say that the ancestors' plans had all failed. Now even our Manchu heads don't speak Manchu. No matter how the ancestors controlled the Manchus below, and even came up with the rule that the Manchus and Hans did not intermarry, in the end, they couldn't stop it at all. Don't you know how the people at the bottom are, don't you know the mourning family? In fact, as early as in many places, the Eight Banners, the Manchu and Han did not intermarry, and it had long been a joke. And the Manchurian banner salary, not only could not allow the Manchu people to concentrate on practicing archery and horse riding, but made a large group of people raise pigs. In the end, the life of the Manchu people was quite bitter, and many of them were not as good as the Han people. Even they have to go outside to work for the Han people, and many of them have been sinicized after long-term contact with the Han people. So, do you say that those Manchu people will really help us in the Qing Dynasty like their ancestors? ”

"This ......" Guangxu was speechless.

Cixi finally said: "However, although we have integrated into the Han people, it is not without benefits. As long as we can leave the capital and go to Shaanxi and Gansu, then we can also sit on the northwest half of the country, and then order the princes of the world to crusade and besiege the capital. And the mourning family can cede the land and pay compensation, relax the conditions, and let those foreigners support us to wipe out Taiwan's elite in this capital. A large number of elites from Taiwan have gathered here, as long as we besiege him in many ways, then once they are wiped out, it is impossible for them to threaten the country of our Qing Dynasty! ”

"Hahahaha, Mrs. Queen Mother, I really have some ability, and I can reason a set, but these plans are all based on the condition that you can get out. If you can't get out, won't it be all about it? A woman said suddenly.

"Who?" Cixi asked.

"Mrs. Queen Mother, I'm really embarrassed, this way doesn't work!" Tanya raised her pistol and pointed it at Cixi and her group. (To be continued......)
