Chapter 36: Miss enters the palace
Today is the day when Miss Li's daughter enters the palace, but the atmosphere in the Li Mansion is very depressing. In the past, palace maids had to go through a competition when they were drafted into the palace, and the emperor had to be seen in person and recognized before they could be selected. Once someone enters the palace, there is a nepotistic relationship with the emperor, even if this nepotism is dangerous and secretly murderous, the princes and ministers are still scrambling to try to send their daughters into the palace by all means.
was appointed by the Empress Dowager Cixi, it stands to reason that this kind of thing is a great gift to Li Hongzhang, but Li Hongzhang is as disgusting as eating a fly. When the daughter enters the palace, not to mention that she has entered hell, the intrigue between the women of the palace will bury Qingqing's life at any time. And mental torture is even more unbearable, no matter whose family you are, once you enter the palace, you will lose your personal freedom, just like a royal dress, you want to wear it, you want to throw it away, or even throw it away.
For Li Hongzhang, his daughter's entry into the palace was a political victim of Cixi to blackmail him, especially in this situation, Li Hongzhang was very dissatisfied in his heart. But there is no way, knowing that Cixi Taihu Lake is intentional, he can only obey. Today, her daughter is going to enter the palace, which is a nightmare for the Li family. Since her daughter heard that she was handpicked into the palace by the Empress Dowager Cixi, she cried for a while as if she was a different person, becoming thinner and thinner.
As a young daughter, Li Qing has always been favored by her parents and is a little willful. But when he heard the news of his entry into the palace, Li Jing cried to no avail, so he could only silently accept this ruthless implementation. It stands to reason that Li Qingfang is twenty-eight years old, it is the time of innocence, because she is pampered and willful by her parents, she should be greatly tossed, and her daughter Zuihou fell into silence, which made Li Hongzhang and her mother frightened and unable to sleep.
Since Li Hongzhang served as the commander of the new army of the Qing court and became a member of the headquarters of the coalition army, he moved his family from Tianjin to the capital, for which the Empress Dowager Cixi specially gave him a palace. Today, when the young lady entered the palace, the Li Mansion was naturally full of lights, and the surface was full of joy. At this time, it was indeed a different atmosphere in the young lady's boudoir, Li Qing was wearing a new blue floral cheongsam, and her hair was coiled high. She sat on the edge of the bed, a line of hot tears running down her eyes on her slightly rouge face, and the makeup on her face was destroyed.
Li Qing's biological mother is Li Hongzhang's third aunt, and at this time, the mother accompanied her daughter to tears silently, and when she saw her daughter sad and sad, her mother was naturally distressed. After a long time, her mother said: "Qing'er, I know you are sad, cry if you want to cry!" Although your father is a high and powerful person, he is also a servant of the court, and for the safety of the whole family, you will admit it. After a long time, Li Qing said: "Mother, please rest assured, my daughter has figured it out." Tell the father that the daughter will take care of herself. "Qing'er, it's relieved that you want to be a mother like this!" A maid walked in and told the lord to let the lady go over for questioning.
The third aunt had just left, and suddenly two figures dressed in black jumped in from the open back window. Li Jing was taken aback when he saw this scene, and was about to open his mouth, only to see one of the men in black stretch out his hand, and Li Qing suddenly lost consciousness. Then another man in black quickly took off his clothes and changed into Li Jing's clothes. At a glance, the man in black is a woman, after changing her clothes, this woman took off her headscarf, no matter her appearance, figure, fat or thin, she is simply Li Qing.
Another man in black picked up the unconscious Li Qing and said, "Senior sister! Take care! Then he jumped out of the window. This dropped the bag "Li Qing! "He was an agent of the CIA of the Guangzhou Military Government. This move was to allow agents to enter the palace to provide information, and secondly, to cooperate with the rebellion against Li Hongzhang, with the purpose of forcing and causing Li Hongzhang to have no way out. After the CIA learned that Li Hongzhang's daughter was appointed into the palace by Cixi Taihu, it began to instigate Jihua to drop the bag.
The first step was to rebel against Liu Mingchuan, who was originally disappointed in the Qing court and hit it off. In order to force Li Hongzhang to have no way out, the CIA's Beijing Intelligence Station was also inspired by Li Hongzhang's method of dropping Liu Mingchuan, and formulated Jihua to drop Li Qing. This jihua could not have been completed without the cooperation of Liu Mingchuan, the chief of the guard. It just so happened that Li Hongzhang's daughter entered the palace, and this opportunity was rare.
In another room, the man in black carried Li Qing in, and Liu Mingchuan said in the house: "Immediately pack the young lady and transport it out, the eunuch who picks up people in the palace is about to arrive." Then the young lady was fed drugs and put in a box. The bag drop went very smoothly as if nothing had happened. Liu Mingchuan personally sent the box of the young lady out of the door from the back door, and a hanging heart was put down. He looked up at the sun and hurried to the front door.
In the lobby, the third aunt entered the hall with a lot of money, and Li Hongzhang was a little worried: "How is Qing'er?" "Master, don't worry, Qing'er is a well-informed daughter, he figured it out." Li Hongzhang let out a long breath and said: "When someone comes to the palace in a while, I won't go out, so as not to see Qing'er sad." "I'll send it with my two sisters, you can rest assured!" Li Hongzhang waved his hand, and the third aunt retreated.
There was a sound of gongs in the alley, everyone looked forward to it, and the eunuchs beat gongs and drums and carried two small petaus to stop in front of the Li Mansion. The sedan chair in front fell first, and the sedan curtain was lifted, and the head of the eunuch Li Lianying was exposed. "Father-in-law Li is auspicious!" Liu Ming passed his head. "As soon as Ji Ke arrives, please get into the sedan chair and enter the palace!" Li Lianying began to look at her after speaking in a male duck voice, probably because she didn't see Li Hongzhang.
The eldest lady said knowingly: "Please forgive Gonggong Li, the master occasionally feels cold today, and it is inconvenient to come out to greet him." "It's okay! Anyway! Please get out of the house and get into the sedan chair! Li Hongzhang doesn't give face, Li Lianying knows it. This kung fu The housekeepers of the Li Mansion have stuffed silver into the eunuchs who accompanied them, this is the rule. The Zuihou housekeeper handed a silver ticket to Li Lianying, and Li Lianying politely said a few words, and then put the silver ticket into her arms with peace of mind.
Li Jing walked out in the company of two maids, no one could see the flaws, at this time, only Liu Mingchuan knew best, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart, it was too similar to a mold. At this time, "Li Jing" looked a little sad, his expression showed helplessness, and although the eldest and second mothers were in a bad mood, they pretended to be smiling on their faces. Only the third aunt was a little surprised, to say that knowing a daughter is like a mother, the third aunt feels that something is wrong there, and her daughter is a little weird. But her daughter was dropped, she wouldn't have thought of it.
The fake Li Qing imitated the voice and first said goodbye to the eldest mother and the second mother, and then said to the mother: "Mother, why didn't Daddy come out?" The third aunt said: "Your father occasionally feels cold, so he won't come out to see you," "Li Jing" knelt down and said: "Please tell your father and let him rest assured that his daughter will take good care of herself!" After saying that, she resolutely got into the sedan chair. Get up! Enter the palace! With Li Lianying's strange shout, the gong opened the way again. On that day, the ceremony of the draft was held in the palace. Although Emperor Guangxu was sitting there, he was a half-haired child and had no right to decide, and the Xiu girl who was appointed by the Emperor was basically Cixi's favor.
Li Qing did not go through the draft process at all, but was directly carried into the dormitory of the Empress Dowager Cixi. After the Empress Dowager Cixi hastily finished the draft, she returned to the palace and ordered Li Lianying to bring Li Qing with her. "The folk girl visits Lafayette, and Lafayette has a long life." Li Jing knelt on the ground, his voice was sweet and crisp, very magnetic, and his performance was just right, without a trace of artificiality. It can be seen that the fake Li Qing has undergone targeted training. Cixi was overjoyed and said: "It is worthy of being born in a scholarly family, Lord Li teaches his daughter well, you raise your head and let the mourning family see?" ”
Li Qing raised her head and said: "Lafayette, my father often teaches the people and daughters to remember the grace of the court, remember the grace of Lafayette, and serve the emperor without complaint or regret. "What a lovely son with sharp teeth, the mourning family is happy, I am in charge of announcing you as Concubine Yi, and the imperial concubine will be married together after being selected next year!" "Thank you, Lafayette!" Li Jing happily bowed down again. "Your dormitory is next to the mourning house, go down and rest!"
After Li Qing left, Li Lianying said: "Queen Mother, Li Hongzhang didn't show up today, so I must be uncomfortable. Cixi said: "If he is full of spring breeze, I will be surprised, and Li Hongzhang's discomfort will make me feel more relieved." "The Queen Mother is wise," Li Lianying never forgot to slip around and shoot the horse. Xiaoyingzi! "Check! Slaves are at your disposal! "You immediately go to the Li Mansion and inform Li Hongzhang of the good news."
Li Hongzhang was still depressed sitting in the lobby, and he didn't go out to see his daughter today. In fact, it was for Cixi to see, how to figure out Cixi's thoughts, Li Hongzhang has been perfected. If she sends her daughter into the palace with a spring breeze and joy today, the Empress Dowager Cixi will definitely be suspicious. If she showed her sadness, Cixi would be relieved. This kung fu Liu Ming came in and said: "My lord, Gonggong Li is here again, the emperor is willing!" ”
Li Hongzhang was shocked when he heard this: "Take the order immediately!" After a while, Li Lianying came in, and Li Hongzhang knelt on the ground with his family. Li Lianying unfolded the scroll and said: "Fengtian carriers, the emperor's grace is vast. The beloved daughter of Li Hongzhang, Governor of Cizhili Province, Minister of Military Aircraft, Minister of Beiyang Commerce, and Commander-in-Chief of the New Army. was designated by the emperor as Yi Guifei, and the next year after the selection of the imperial concubine to marry, admiration. "Thank you for the Emperor's grace!" Li Hongzhang bowed.
After Li Lianying left, Li Hongzhang figured out in his heart that the Empress Dowager Cixi was so urgent, indicating that she was more suspicious of herself. The house leak coincides with the rain, as the saying goes: blessings are not double, disasters are not singular. That night, Old Lady Li suddenly became seriously ill, and the imperial doctor in the palace said bluntly after diagnosis: "Lord Li! Forgive the old man for his incompetence, the old lady may not survive the winter, you have to be mentally prepared. "Imperial Doctor, is there really no way?" The Imperial Physician sighed and shook his head.
Li Hongzhang sent the imperial doctor back to his room, and his mood was even heavier. Suddenly, Li Hongzhang was startled and thought of Ding Wei. If my father died, I would have to worry about it for three years as a scholar. At that time, I am afraid that my rights will be lost, and Li Hongzhang broke out in a cold sweat when he thought of this. It's hard to say that this is God's will, his father's illness doesn't come sooner or later, but at this time, Li Hongzhang's mood is extremely cold.
