Duolonga and Chengbao, who had been reduced to white bodies, knelt side by side on the ground, surrounded by a group of Manchu princes and important ministers, such as the old Wudun Prince Yicheng, the old Liugong Prince Yixun, the old Qiol Prince Yixun, the Li Prince Shiduo, the Horqin County Wang Boyan Nemohu, Baojun, Jinglian, Erle and Bu and so on.

But I don't see a Han person!

Li Hongzao, Weng Tonghe, Shen Guifen, Pan Zuyin, Yan Jingming, Xu Tong, etc., the Han bigwigs in the Manchu Dynasty court, no one was seen.

A group of Manchu princes and important ministers sat on the hands of the Empress Dowager of the East and West Palaces and the Guangxu Emperor, who was just eight years old.

Just looking at the atmosphere in the Dongnuan Pavilion, it seems that Duolonga, the criminal minister who lost his teacher and humiliated the 'country', is not really blamed. However, whether it is Cixi and they really understand the gap between the two armies of the Qing and Qin, or they are forced, Duolonga is the only card they can still play in their hands, and they have scruples, anyway, although Duolonga has been cut off a qiē control, it is only a face.

"Get up, both of you! You don't need to ask for any sin, you are not guilty! It's our strength that can't compare to Liu Thief. Cixi's eyes looked at Duolonga softly, "Duolonga, you have been dismissed from your official position and title, but it is just for show, you are still the commander of the Qing Dynasty!" The soldiers and horses and garrisons in the capital, you still need to be careful. ”

Duolong's eyes were full of tears, "Queen Mother, the slave has the grace of the saint!" ”

Cheng Bao on the side clenched his teeth, and secretly swore in his heart that he would repay the country with death if he fought again.

Prince Gong is now like a dying old man. The great changes in the two years of the Manchu Qing Dynasty had exhausted his mind. At present, the Qing Dynasty is about to reach the point where it is impossible to sell. Britain and France are not enough to rely on, and the only Russians who can still be counted on listen to the words of the foreigners. Its war with Turkey also exhausted its national strength.

When Chonghou went to Europe, he disagreed, believing that Xinjiang Governor Jin Shun should be asked to contact Russia directly. Use the soil of Xinjiang as a bargaining chip, and ask for as much assistance as possible from the Russians. And it also required the promise of Russia that the Manchus would be under the protection of the Russians if necessary.

But the court didn't listen, and insisted on going to Europe with Chonghou, first Britain and France. As a result, now Chonghou is not even eating behind closed doors in Britain and France, and Russia has not yet arrived, and the Qing Dynasty is about to end.

"Please rest assured that the queen mother and the emperor are broken, and the slaves will be broken to pieces, and they will also block the Liu thief under the city of Beijing."

Cixi, Ci'an, Guangxu, the entire Qing Dynasty is going to tour the west. I want to go to Xi'an to settle down. But millions of eight flags. Walking from Beijing to Xi'an is not something that can be done with just a mouthful. Dolonga had to hold off the Qin army in Beijing to gain the necessary time for the transfer of the Eight Banners.

Fortunately, since the defeat of Huai'an, the Manchus have begun to prepare for the arrival of this day. The banner people in Beijing also took the initiative to carry out a little self-diversion, some went to Shengjing, some went to Mongolia, and some went to Shanxi.

Now the Manchu army is heading for Shanxi!

However, most of the millions of Eight Banners are women and children, the old and weak, and the lazy and accustomed wasted, and it is not clear how slow the speed of travel is. From Beijing to Shanxi. The road is thousands of miles, and Duolonga has to block the Qin army under the city of Beijing for at least a month to ensure the safety of the 'army' of the Eight Banners Western Tour!

……

At this time, Liu Xian was already sitting in the governor's yamen in Tianjin.

He had just met with the British consul in Tianjin, Mr. Colke, who had come according to the rules! The attitude of the British has not softened in any way. Liu Xian did not have the luxury of expecting that Kaulke would obediently hand over all the Manchu officials and gentry who had fled into the British Concession in Tianjin.

However, even so, after taking Tianjin, he was well fed.

Tianjin has been a city since the Ming Dynasty. Its positioning is first of all "the north arch Shenjing", as for "the south reaches the Jianghuai, the east connects the Canghai, and the west leads to Taihang" and so on. All are secondary. Tianjin is Beijing's bodyguard and nanny. In addition to "Gongwei", we must do a good job in various services and supporting work.

Therefore, in the Ming Dynasty and in the early and middle Qing Dynasty, Tianjin was general, with important functions and status, which was not high.

It was not until after the establishment of the Beiyang Yamen that Tianjin suddenly became a "partner" of Beijing, albeit with a small stake, but diverted part of Beijing's function as the "capital". Beijing and Tianjin, originally one and the same, used to be a "subordinate" relationship between superiors and subordinates, but now it has become a "complementary" relationship, serving the center together.

Beijing stresses politics and Tianjin does economy; Beijing is in charge of internal affairs, and Tianjin is in charge of foreign affairs; Beijing is engaged in struggle, Tianjin is busy with construction; Beijing can forge ahead, Tianjin can take refuge......

This intimate relationship with the supreme power is unmatched by any other city in the Qing Dynasty, including Shanghai, which is rapidly becoming a "cosmopolitan city."

Without the emergence of Liu Xian, Tianjin's development will go further and deeper on this road.

But now it is Liu Xian who has appeared, and Liu Xianam's series of 'Westernization Movements' in Hanzhong, Guangxi, and Taiwan have deeply stimulated the Manchu Qing Dynasty center [Li Hongzhang is wrapped here]. Tianjin and the entire Zhili region became a model "special zone" for imperial reform. Li Hongzhang, who had already tried his edge for the first time in Shanghai, stood on the shoulders of his mentor Zeng Guofan, and achieved the unconventional and leapfrogging development of the "Westernization Movement" at the feet of the Son of Heaven. Whether it is military production (Tianjin Machinery Bureau), coal mining (Kaiping Mining Bureau), telegraph communication (Tianjin Telegraph Bureau), or new education (Mine School, Beiyang Naval Academy and Military Academy, etc.), Tianjin has made all-round efforts in almost all fields, leading the trend of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, far surpassing Shanghai and Nanjing. Although many of them have just developed during this period.

For example, the Mine School, it was after Liu Xian used mines to cushion the shipmaster and sailor, and Li Hongzhang took the opportunity to make a decision. It has only been a year now, and the students and teachers are very weak.

But Liu Xian still ate it all unceremoniously.

These are the legacies of the Huai Army. As soon as it was in Dorona's hand, before it could be warmed, it changed hands again.

In addition, there were large quantities of gold and silver, shops, real estate, and land harvests. The total value is naturally smaller than that of Guangzhou, but it is not inferior to that of Nanjing.

However, it takes some time for a lot of real estate to be converted into money.

"Your Majesty, now the city of Beijing is in chaos. The powerful bannermen were busy walking westward, and many of the wealthy and officials in the city also ran away. People are panicked, and they are troubled. Local ruffians and hooligans and the Qing soldiers left behind have committed crimes, broken into doors and plundered in broad daylight, and even committed adultery and adultery. Beijing Station has executed a group of evildoers and evil deeds, but as long as our army does not take Beijing City, or Duolong Abu rectifies military discipline, the city will not be stable! ”

"Just let the Beijing station do its best. The danger is great, and Hugh must be reckless. Just write down the evildoers. ”

After the war, what disgusted Liu Xian the most was the guerrilla and the ruffians. The former hid burning, killing, and plundering during the period of escape, while the latter took advantage of the fire to rob and ravage the good. It's all damn and killed!

……

The imperial court is going to tour the west.

In the past few days, there has been a lot of chaos inside and outside Beijing, and every day there are wealthy businessmen and ordinary people who drag their families and families out, as well as many official eunuchs and banner families. Of course, more Han officials and Han Chinese people in Beijing are still quietly waiting for the arrival of the new dynasty.

Since the Jiashen Change, Aixinjue Luo has lived in the Forbidden City for more than 200 years. Two years before the Huanghuang Dynasty, it was still 'Tongzhi Zhongxing', why was it about to collapse in a blink of an eye?

But no matter how many people sigh, the reality has come, and countless Han officials in Beijing have understood in their hearts that a multiple-choice question has come to them.

It is under the imperial authority of this sunset, that the group of people who have been active in the huge city of Beijing are already extremely excited at this moment. Their movements also became more and more frequent, and the damage to the Manchus became greater and greater. In just half a month, I don't know how many dignitaries and dignitaries have been robbed of their family assets, and how many wealthy businessmen have gone bankrupt.

These people are all people who can't get out of the broken ship that is about to sink in the Manchu Dynasty. This is the Manchu Qing's own people!

Behind every full warehouse of gold and silver is the ugly collusion of officials and businessmen.

Every time these people are unlucky, it is like cutting off a piece of meat on the Manchu Qing!

The Admiral of the Nine Gates, Yinggui, didn't know how many private messages came, and the meaning was all the same - to arrest the murderer as much as possible.

But Yinggui, the Admiral of the Nine Gates, is different from the Admiral of the Nine Gates when Duolong was appointed, he is just an ornament. The military power of Beijing and Tianjin was all divided between Prince Qiye and Duolonga. Yinggui has no real power!

In addition to the Admiral of the Nine Gates, the name of Dingliang is the old name of the Beijing area in the Ming and Qing dynasties, and its jurisdiction has changed many times in the early Qing Dynasty, and the evolution of nearly a hundred years has been fixed until the eighth year of Qianlong, with a total of five states and nineteen counties. That is, the five prefectures of Tong, Ji, Zhuo, Ba and Changping, and the nineteen counties of Daxing, Wanping, Liangxiang, Fangshan, Dong'an, Gu'an, Yongqing, Baoding, Dacheng, Wen'an, Wuqing, Xianghe, Baoda, Ninghe, Sanhe, Pinggu, Shunyi, Miyun and Huairou are also mixed up as the twenty-four counties of Shuntianfu.

The current Fu Yin is Zhou Jialin, a native of Yixing, Jiangsu, in the ninth year of Xianfeng in the Qing Dynasty (1859), he was admitted to the Hanlin Academy for further study for three years, and after graduation, he successively served as the director of the Ministry of Rites, which was equivalent to the director of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in later generations. Prime Minister, Yamen Zhangjing, and other posts. In the fourth year of Guangxu (1878), Zhou Jialin was promoted to the Shuntianfu Yin, which was equivalent to the mayor of Beijing.

In the Qing Dynasty, the prefects of each province were from the four-rank prefect and used copper seals, while the prefects of the Shuntian Mansion, which was the capital of the country, were the three prefects of the Zhengsanpin Prefecture and used silver seals. But in Beijing, a place full of princes and nobles and first- and second-class officials, even if Shuntianfu Yin is raised by two levels, he is still a small shrimp.

Three years ago, private messages flying like snowflakes could crush Shuntianfu Yin to death.

But now, Zhou Jialin simply ignored it and turned a deaf ear. He has always been engaged in the revision of the "Shuntianfu Chronicles". Previously, in the eleventh year of Tongzhi (1872), Li Hongzhang, the governor of Zhili, initiated the revision of the "Jifu Tongzhi", and it was necessary to refer to the local chronicles of the provinces, prefectures and counties of Zhili, but found that only Shuntianfu did not have a chronicle. Therefore, starting from Zhou Jialin's predecessor, the "Shuntianfu Chronicles" Revision Bureau was established. At the beginning, Li Hongzhang allocated 10,000 taels of official silver as a start-up fund. And the chief editor of this "Shuntianfu Chronicles", that is, the editor-in-chief and the general person in charge, is Zhang Zhidong, who was famous for slaughtering wealth in the original time and space.
