Chapter 505: Seeking Skin with the Tiger

Returning to Chuxiu Palace, outside Lijingxuan, An Dehai stayed outside very interestingly, and the palace maids and eunuchs who followed naturally did not go in. Xingzhen picked up the curtain of the East Warm Pavilion, and the embroidered shoes at the bottom of the flower pot stepped lightly, and then quietly moved the lotus step in. With his back to the door, he seemed to hear the movement, but he tilted his head slightly, and his tone was a little unkind: "My good imperial sister-in-law, if you summon your courtiers alone, aren't you afraid that there will be rumors about you and me having ears across the wall?" ”

Xingzhen asked with a smile: "What do you and I have to do?" Or does the sixth master want to do something? ”

Abundant? Turned around suddenly, her face turned red, and she stepped forward to stare at Xingzhen with an angry face, Xingzhen did not show weakness, raised her head, and there was a charming look in the corners of her eyes, just smiling and staring at the person in front of her. Abundant? couldn't help but pull up Xingzhen's jade hand and said angrily: "Don't think that this king doesn't dare!" ”

Xingzhen was not afraid at all, she still had a charming smile on her face, Su Shou greeted her, and her delicate red lips came up. Slightly stunned and took a step back, Xingzhen followed a step forward, and kept Yi? forced to sit down on the soft couch.

"What are you hiding from if you dare?" Xingzhen leaned down and snickered and said, "Will the dignified sixth master be afraid of me, a little woman?" ”

Abundant? His face turned from red to blue, and he suddenly turned sideways to avoid the aggressive beauty in front of him, stood up and walked away, and said angrily: "Shameless! ”

Xingzhen's delicate body twisted and lay on her side on the soft couch, and the disdainful sneer on her face floated: "Shameless? Is the sixth master talking about himself? Who was holding Hongu in spite of the last time we met? You men, don't talk about your own lust. But we women will only be blamed for not being honest. ”

Abundant? Taking a deep breath, he turned around and said, "It was you who seduced this king, but last time it was fortunate that this king's concentration was extremely high, otherwise it would have been a big mistake!" ”

Xingzhen gently brushed the embroidered handkerchief in her hand. He pursed his lips and smiled, and then the smile on his face disappeared, and he sat up in a precarious position, and said slowly: "Sixth master, sixth master, what kind of concentration is extremely high, you are afraid, you are afraid that you will be like Dolgon back then." Although the power leaned towards the government and the opposition, and slept with the Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang, it was inevitable that she would end up in a different place in the end. So you don't dare touch me, do you? Speaking of which, Xingzhen paused, don't wait? He spoke, then sneered, "Dolgon died in the end. But it has also monopolized the government for decades. Not only slept with his sister-in-law, but also acted as a powerful and blessed for a long time, what a heroic and heroic man, and you? It's just a useless man! ”

Abundant? His eyes were red, and he almost wanted to burst out of fire, so he suddenly stepped forward and pressed Xingzhen on the soft couch, and said angrily in a low voice: "Do you really think I don't dare?!" ”

Xingzhen smiled slightly, and her knee suddenly slammed into Yi? Waist. Abundant? When she was distracted by pain, Xingzhen had already turned over and was about to die? Crushed under the delicate body. The jade hand caressed his face, and said with a coquettish smile: "If you really dare, you won't say much, but do it directly!" ”

Abundant? His face turned from blue to red, he pushed Xingzhen aside in pain, got up busily, stood aside, and said a little dejectedly: "Yes, my brother doesn't dare!" I don't dare the fuck sleep with you! ”

Xingzhen laughed again, then suppressed her smile, and said lightly: "Since you don't dare to be the regent, then keep your duty!" Who did you show the stinky shelf just now?! As the first assistant of the military aircraft and the first prince of the DPRK, he has no sense of proportion at all, what is the arbitrary decision of the queen mother of the two palaces, how old is he and still says such a thing, what will it look like? You're not too young, so you can't learn from the seventh?! It is not uncommon for the DPRK and China to have different opinions on major matters, so don't you allow others to raise objections to you?! ”

A meal fell, Yi? His face was even more ugly, and he gritted his teeth and said: "The imperial sister-in-law taught a lesson!" The little brother went back to the house and thought about it behind closed doors! ”

Xingzhen snorted and did not dissuade, and continued to say coldly: "Could it be that Emperor Xuanzong of Daxing didn't choose you to be the emperor back then, so you can't calm down, I really don't know how to do big things!" Then he stood up and stepped forward to stare at Yi? Leng said: "You have thought about it yourself, if you really go back, I will take back an errand from your hand!" ”

Abundant? His face was the color of a pig's liver, and he said angrily: "You have a firm grip on military power and government affairs!" I don't want to do it for a long time! Then he turned around and left.

"Yiyun is going to get married to Wanzhen in a few days, remember to arrive early!" Abundant? Wen Yan's body shook slightly, but he still had to go.

"As soon as you go, I will entrust all the foreign affairs we have just started to Yiyun! The Prime Minister's Yamen is about to be established, and Yi Xun will become the foreman of the Consulate General Yamen, the Minister of Military Aircraft, it is your lifelong ambition to set up foreign affairs, and this time the Empress Dowager Jingduan has also passed away, I will not look at anyone's face to persuade you to go out of the mountain! Think it out for yourself! ”

Abundant? Standing at the door, Xingzhen's soft voice was like the seductive voice of a demon, tormenting him over and over again. Abundant? The clenched fists gradually loosened, turned his head and said angrily: "The matter of foreign affairs has been planned by this king for a long time, and others are not allowed to touch it!" ”

Xingzhen snorted coldly and said, "No one wants to get involved, it's you who gave up on your own!" ”

Abundant? couldn't hold back his anger, turned around and sat down, stared at Xingzhen and said, "Imperial sister-in-law, count you amazing!" ”

Xingzhen smiled faintly and said, "The sixth master told the truth, I have always felt that I am very powerful!" ”

Abundant? Choked again, Xingzhen continued: "The Prime Minister's National Affairs Yamen is also in charge of trade, coastal defense, customs duties, roads and mines, posts and telecommunications, military industry, Tongwen Museum, sending students and other affairs. Now that even Guangzhou has been lost, the top priority is to reopen negotiations with the foreigners and reopen a few treaty ports in the north, so as to solve the current dilemma that firearms and artillery are not as good as long hair. ”

Speaking of foreign affairs, Yi? Finally, his face softened slightly, and he muttered for a moment: "A few days ago, the Russian consul arrived at Dagukou, and in addition to sending a note requesting a re-survey of the northeast border, he also hinted that he could borrow the help of the teacher to suppress Changmao, and at the same time, he could mediate that we could reopen negotiations with Britain and France!" ”

Xingzhen took a sip of tea lightly, the charming color on her face had completely disappeared, and she said calmly and indifferently: "This old Maozi has always been fierce, and it is adjacent to my Qing Dynasty, Kangxi Shengzu has fought a few battles during the years, last time Lao Maozi took advantage of the war with Britain and France, forcibly occupied Temple Street, Sakhalin Island and other places, and killed my border civilian officers and soldiers, this account has not been settled, they are embarrassed to come over shamelessly?" ”

Abundant? frowned and said: "The younger brother thinks that now that the long-haired thieves are prosperous, and the British and French are aggressive, it seems more appropriate to temporarily unite with the Rakshasa people to deal with the British and French and the long-haired." ”

Xingzhen smiled slightly and said: "Sixth Master, you have used the word "seem" yourself, which shows that the Sixth Master does not trust the Rakshasa people in his heart. Although Britain and France are aggressive, but their country is far away from my Qing Dynasty, although the Rakshasa people seem to be friendly at the moment, but they are next to me, even I know the truth of distant friendship and close attack, and the Rakshasa people join forces, it is tantamount to seeking the skin of the tiger, even if the long hair is not leveled in the future, we will have a war with the Rakshasa people. ”

Abundant? He sighed lightly and said, "Then the resumption of negotiations with Britain and France is a distant hope." ”

Xingzhen Feng's eyes raised and said: "Not really, has the sixth master ever looked for an American?" Although the United States is not as powerful as Britain and France, it is also a big country, and with the Americans intervening to mediate and mediate, negotiations may be reopened. ”

Abundant? After pondering for a while, he said with a sigh: "This is a method, the American Minister Mai Lian has returned to China, and the trusted American Minister Lie Weilian has not yet arrived, and when he arrives at Dagukou, you can make an appointment with him to negotiate." ”

Xingzhen slowly put down the teacup and said: "There is another thing, the former Japanese palace summoned several leading figures of the Jin merchants, Qiao Zhiyong, Lei Honghui and others, who have already stated that the imperial court can encourage industry and commerce, and rewarded Qiao Zhiyong and Lei Honghui with three products. Before the fall of Guangzhou in the south, Ye Mingchen reported that some British people had talked about an economic crisis in the United States, which was that the goods they produced could not be sold, a large number of factories closed, workers lost their jobs, and many businesses lost their money. ”

Abundant? It was the first time I heard the word economic crisis, and I wanted to ask, but Xingzhen then briefly explained, Yi? He said thoughtfully: "The goods produced by the Americans cannot be sold, and the domestic businessmen have suffered a lot of losses. ”

Xingzhen bowed slightly: "Yes, so the palace and Qiao Zhiyong and other Jin merchants who operate ticket numbers have discussed, you can take this opportunity to be contacted by the imperial court, and the Jin merchants will pay the money, buy some machinery from the closed factories in the United States, and set up their own arms and ordnance manufacturing bureaus in Tianjin." After the completion of these ordnance bureaus, the official and civilian capital accounted for half of them, but they were still managed by Qiao Zhiyong and others, and the future supply of arms to the imperial court was fully contracted by these ordnance bureaus. ”

Abundant? patted her thigh and said: "The imperial sister-in-law is really smart, the Jin merchant ticket number is rich and rivals the country, the Qiao family and the Lei family are all time-honored brands for decades, and they are good at doing business." If the United States really suffers from any economic crisis, presumably those Americans will also be in a hurry to sell some factories and equipment to recover their losses. This time, the American minister was newly arriving, and his younger brother took Qiao Zhiyong and others to negotiate with him. ”

Xingzhen bowed slightly, and then sighed lightly: "Sixth master, I am just a woman's family, and it is inconvenient to come forward to talk about many things, so I need the sixth master to take care of some more." Bengong knows that the sixth master sometimes feels aggrieved in his heart, but can he bear it in front of Queen Jingduan? It's all a family, what can't be said openly? ”

In the face of Xingzhen's soft voice, Yi? A little embarrassed again, Xingzhen got up and walked forward, gently caressing Yi? On the face, he said softly: "I know that you are not used to being taught by a woman, but we have to make things on the face for others to see." In private, you can do whatever you want from me, I know you like the imperial sister-in-law in your heart. ”

Abundant? didn't dare to look at Xingzhen, but he didn't dodge Xingzhen's jade hand, but just said in a low voice: "Imperial sister-in-law, let's not go that far." ”

Xingzhen smiled lightly and said: "You still don't dare, but I also like you like this, let's do this, we can't really make you the regent, then don't you bully our orphans and widows all day long?" ”

Abundant? Hurriedly said: "How can my brother bully ......?"

Xingzhen smiled, and said in a charming voice: "Okay, I'm joking with you, you go back first, the Prime Minister's Yamen is preparing for the opening of the mansion, and the edicts have been announced to the world, if this Prime Minister's Yamen can't operate for a long time, it will be laughed at by others." ”

Abundant? Hmm, after looking up at Xingzhen, he took three steps back and bowed slightly.

Xingzhen looked at Yi with a smile? After leaving, he said to An Dehai outside the house: "Xiao Anzi, this palace has a headache, let Miss Cheng from the Tai Hospital come over and use acupuncture for this palace to ......" (to be continued......)
