On 1 October, Li Hongzhang signed the "Surrender Agreement" with Niu Dahu at the garrison of the Huaxia Army in Jianmen Pass, which stated that the emperor of the Qing Empire officially abdicated, and in this way, the Qing Empire, which had lasted for more than 200 years, was officially declared to end.

After the signing of the surrender, the Qing army gave up all resistance to the pass and surrendered to the Huaxia army, and on October 5, the Huaxia army entered Chengdu.

On the day when the Huaxia army entered Chengdu, Weng Tonggong hanged himself at home, although Weng Tonggong still poured out his colleagues at the critical moment of the Qing Dynasty, but no one could surpass him in loyalty to the Qing court.

Zhang Zhidong was extremely disappointed with the Qing court's future and asked Lin Feien to allow him to return to his hometown and set up an industry, and Lin Fei agreed.

Li Hongzhang still stayed with the Empress Dowager Cixi and Emperor Guangxu, although the Qing court surrendered, but there are still many things to deal with, for example, where the Empress Dowager Cixi and Emperor Guangxu lived, how to deal with the imperial relatives of the Qing court, etc., all of which require Li Hongzhang's participation.

According to the agreement signed by Li Hongzhang and Niu Dahu, the Empress Dowager Cixi and Emperor Guangxu will each retain ten palace maids and ten eunuchs to live in Dayu City, and the concubines of Emperor Guangxu will also follow Emperor Guangxu.

As for the Empress Dowager Cixi and the imperial relatives under the Guangxu Emperor, they were not prosecuted for war crimes, and they were allowed to return to Beijing to fend for themselves.

As for the ministers of the Qing court, they were released to their villages.

There were also some foreign envoys in Chengdu, such as the Japanese envoy Kodama Gentaro, but Lin Fei did not embarrass them and let them return to their respective countries.

A huge empire finally collapsed and disappeared, and the enemy who had fought with Lin Fei to the death before had been trampled under Lin Fei's feet in the blink of an eye.

On October 10, the Huaxia army took the Empress Dowager Cixi and the Guangxu Emperor, as well as Li Hongzhang, from Chengdu to Dayu City, the caretaker sent by the Huaxia Army was Chiyo Shizuka, Lin Fei felt that sending a woman to take care of the Empress Dowager Cixi and the Guangxu Emperor would be more gentle.

When the Huaxia army took care of the Empress Dowager Cixi and Emperor Guangxu, everyone was polite, and no one sneered at the Empress Dowager Cixi and Emperor Guangxu because they were prisoners.

The Empress Dowager Cixi and the palace maids and eunuchs around the Guangxu Emperor treated the two of them as before, kneeling and worshipping, calling them "Saint" and "Lafayette", especially Li Hongzhang, who was even more loyal, and went to greet the Empress Dowager Cixi and Emperor Guangxu every day.

In fact, the soldiers of the Huaxia Army and Chiyo Shizuka are still quite sympathetic to the Empress Dowager Cixi and the Guangxu Emperor, these two people were still the empress dowager and emperor a few days ago, but now they have become prisoners.

On October 15, Chiyo Shizuka took the Empress Dowager Cixi and Emperor Guangxu on the ship in the port of Guangzhou, ready to return to Dayu City, they took a high-speed passenger ship, that is, the kind that can be changed into military in wartime, this ship is called "Swift".

Next to the Swift is a dynasty-class battleship, the Summer Ship, which serves as a escort.

Empress Dowager Cixi and Emperor Guangxu didn't say a word to Chiyo Shizuka along the way, and now when they got on the ship, they said a few words to Chiyo Shizuka, and the two pointed to the dynasty-class battleship and asked about it, and Chiyo Shizuka didn't understand, so she politely said she didn't know.

When the ship stopped at the wharf, many foreign reporters came to interview and take pictures, it turned out that Lin Fei released the news, saying that the Chinese Empire sent a high-speed passenger ship to welcome the Empress Dowager Cixi and the Guangxu Emperor, and held a farewell ceremony before the ship, reporters from all over the world heard the wind and wanted to witness the appearance of the Empress Dowager Cixi and the Guangxu Emperor.

The Empress Dowager Cixi and the Guangxu Emperor saw the foreign reporters, ashamed to see each other, hid in the cabin and did not come out, the farewell ceremony ended quickly, and the Swift set sail with the summer ship and sailed to Dayu City.

After three days and three nights on the sea, Luzon Island gradually approached, and on the morning of the fourth day, when Emperor Guangxu was spreading on the deck, he suddenly saw a ship followed by the Swift, which looked exactly like the Swift.

Chiyo Shizuka happened to be on the side, and Emperor Guangxu asked Chiyo Shizuka: "Why is that ship following us?" ”

Chiyo Shizuka replied with a smile: "That ship is also a passenger ship, we are taking a route, of course it will follow us." ”

"Oh, then why does it look the same as our ship?"

Chiyo Shizuka smiled, "Because that ship is of the same level as ours, all the design indicators are the same, and the length will naturally be the same." ”

Emperor Guangxu nodded, no longer asked, he saw Chiyo Shizuka's long flower and moon appearance, and couldn't help but envy Lin Fei's Yanfu, several concubines of Emperor Guangxu, but all of them are crooked melons and cracked dates, how ugly and ugly it is, the only one who looks good is Concubine Zhen, but she was not treated by the Empress Dowager Cixi, and was left in the Forbidden City by the Empress Dowager Cixi and fell into the hands of the Huaxia Army.

Emperor Guangxu has not dared to ask about Concubine Zhen's whereabouts these days, worried about hearing the news that Concubine Zhen will be the first of the Huaxia Army to die, and now he took the opportunity to talk to Chiyo Shizuka and asked, "How is Concubine Zhen now?" ”

"Don't worry, no one bullied Concubine Zhen, she is very good now, and she is looking forward to your return every day."

When Emperor Guangxu heard that he could see Concubine Zhen, there was a smile on his originally gloomy face.

On the evening of October 20, the Swift docked at the dock of Dayu City, and two American-made cars were parked on the pier.

When the Empress Dowager Cixi and Emperor Guangxu got off the boat, someone took the Empress Dowager Cixi and Emperor Guangxu into the car, and Chiyo Shizuka told them: "Our Majesty wants to see you in the palace." ”

The Empress Dowager Cixi and Emperor Guangxu soon came to Lin Fei's residence, Lin Fei's residence was too shabby compared with the Forbidden City, and the Empress Dowager Cixi and Emperor Guangxu couldn't believe that Lin Fei, as the king of a country in the Chinese Empire, actually lived in such a "pig's nest".

The Empress Dowager Cixi and the Guangxu Emperor, as well as the twenty palace maids and twenty eunuchs who accompanied them, came to Lin Fei's residence together, and Lin Fei met them in the reception room.

The Empress Dowager Cixi and Emperor Guangxu both saw Lin Fei for the first time, and after seeing Lin Fei, they were all shocked, but they didn't expect Lin Fei to be such a handsome young man.

The Empress Dowager Cixi thought that she was defeated by such a young man, and was secretly ashamed, Emperor Guangxu was ashamed to see that Lin Fei was the same age as him, but he could catch him.

The Empress Dowager Cixi and Emperor Guangxu did not speak, but Lin Fei spoke first: "Empress Dowager Cixi, Emperor Guangxu, I first want to welcome you to my Dayu City." ”

The Empress Dowager Cixi and Emperor Guangxu greeted with a smile, Lin Fei waved his hand lightly, and asked the other attendants to go out, and only Lin Fei, the Empress Dowager Cixi and Emperor Guangxu were left in the room.

Lin Fei continued: "Empress Dowager Cixi, Emperor Guangxu, why do you say I invite you to live in Dayu City?" ”

The Empress Dowager Cixi said without humility or arrogance: "Of course they want to spy on us, how can we not know about these things?" ”

Lin Fei smiled and said, "Very good, Your Majesty the Queen Mother, what you said is very right, then tell me again, why am I spying on you?" ”

"Although my Qing Dynasty has been destroyed, but there are many subordinates, do you suspect that someone is making a comeback in our name, right?" The person who spoke this time was Emperor Guangxu.

Lin Fei raised his hand, applauded lightly, and praised: "Very good, very good, Emperor Guangxu, I don't know if you know, what is the best way to stop your comeback?" ”

Emperor Guangxu and Empress Dowager Cixi were stunned when they heard this, and Empress Dowager Cixi asked coldly: "Mr. Lin Fei, what do you mean by this?" ”

Lin Fei smiled faintly, "I want to tell you that killing you is the best way to prevent you from making a comeback." As soon as Lin Fei's words fell, a dagger shining with cold light had already appeared in front of the Empress Dowager Cixi and Emperor Guangxu.

The two were shocked, pointed at Lin Fei and said in unison, "Lin Fei, what do you want to do?" ”

"What for?" Lin Fei sneered, "I'm going to kill you." ”

Empress Dowager Cixi and Emperor Guangxu's faces changed drastically, and they were extremely surprised, and Emperor Guangxu hurriedly said: "Lin Fei, you have promised us not to kill us, how can you break your word and gain weight?" ”

"Emperor Guangxu, you are still the king of a country, don't you know that there is no truth in the mouths of politicians? You two are the number one and number two people in the Qing court, and if you live in the world, I will not have a peaceful sleep, so you must die. Lin Fei's face suddenly showed murderous aura, and the Empress Dowager Cixi and Emperor Guangxu were both trembling.

The Empress Dowager Cixi pretended to be calm, pointed at Lin Fei's nose and scolded: "Snitch, you killed us, aren't you afraid of the mouths of the people of the world?" ”

Lin Fei laughed loudly: "If I want to kill you, I will definitely block the mouth of the people of the world in advance, you should have seen a ship on the sea, the captain is exactly the same as your ship, I believe you must have seen it." ”

Emperor Guangxu remembered the conversation with Chiyo Shizuka, nodded involuntarily, Lin Fei reached out and took out a piece of paper from his pocket, threw it to the Empress Dowager Cixi and Emperor Guangxu, and said with a smile: "Look, this is a news report on the fire and sinking of the Swift high-speed passenger ship, tomorrow this report will be known to the whole world, in this report, the death of the two of you is clearly written, so it can also be said that you are dead." ”

The Empress Dowager Cixi and Emperor Guangxu were so surprised that they didn't know what to say, it turned out that Lin Fei had been preparing to kill them for a long time, and the ship that was exactly the same as the captain of the Swift was the ship that died in their place.

Lin Fei smiled proudly: "After the ship sinks, I will salvage it, when you left Guangzhou, didn't there be many reporters who went to see it off, they must have taken pictures of the appearance of the ship, and when you compare it with the sunken ship, you will find that the two ships are the same ship, and the fact that the two of you died on the ship will be confirmed."
