Mrs. Zhending looked at the emaciated queen mother, sighed slightly, and waited until the little eunuch took the eunuch to soothe the nerves, then sat on the brocade stool, leaned over and said to the queen mother, "Niangniang, you can't be too sad and hurt your body." Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info"

The Empress Dowager Cixi sat cross-legged on the kang, a brocade quilt was spread on the lower body of the Empress Dowager, the Empress Dowager's eyes were red and swollen, and her voice was hoarse and said: "Who knew that Fan'er actually bleed like this, hey, think about the previous days, when I just entered the palace, Fan'er accompanied me, and the two of them depended on each other in the days of Chuxiu Palace. ”

"Fan'er is also blessed, Niangniang," Fucha hurriedly comforted, "Wu Yundi has also returned to Beijing, and the husband and wife will not not be unable to see each other for the last time, and besides, I left a brother for the Wu family, and arranged my own afterlife, and if I go, I must also smile at Jiuquan." ”

Tears flowed out of the Empress Dowager Cixi's eyes again, and Anqian hurriedly presented a small handkerchief, "Niangniang, this is not the time to be sad, what should I do after the second young lady's death?" It's up to you. ”

"What can I do," Cixi wiped away her tears, "they just got it themselves, but I can't leave the palace at will, not even to send Fan'er for a ride." ”

"That Fan'er can't rest in peace under the nine springs," Fucha hurriedly said, "Don't worry, Niangniang, I'll be out there, no matter what, Fan'er is a young lady from our house, this maiden family should contribute, besides, isn't Gui Xiang outside?" Let him go and help his brother-in-law out. ”

Cixi nodded, "That's all there is to it." ”

"Then there are two children in this mansion," Fucha said hesitantly, "Fan'er actually called the county monarch over before she died, and the concubine really couldn't think of it, you say, what should I do?" ”

"I don't know what to do, hey, this time, my heart is very messy," the Empress Dowager Cixi shook her head in annoyance, "I don't know how to be good, just look at it first." ”

Mrs. Zhending tucked the quilt corner for the Empress Dowager Cixi, and looked at Cixi distressedly, "It's only been two days, and the mother has reduced so much, what should I do?" ”

"It's okay, mother," Empress Dowager Cixi supported her head with her hands, "It's sad for Fan'er, I really don't need much food, and I don't know if I'm hungry." ”

Tang Wufu entered the Dongnuan Pavilion, "Niangniang, over there in the Qinzheng Palace, the internal affairs office has come to ask for a driver, the sixth master and the minister of military aircraft have arrived, waiting for Niangniang to discuss the matter." ”

"That's how the mother is," Mrs. Zhending muttered a little dissatisfied, "why do you have to discuss things today!" ”

The Empress Dowager Cixi looked at the big pile of folds at hand, "It's been a day, no wonder they're urging, it's no wonder, the British ambassador has something to embarrass us, Wufu, call the sedan chair," struggling to get up, "Anqian changed my clothes and made up,"

Mrs. Zhending hurriedly held on, "Mother, you should also go out of the garden, go to the martial arts family to take a look, there are no elders in his family, I really don't worry about the two children, you are free outside, just go and take a look." ”

"I understand," Mrs. Zhending and Anqian served the Queen Mother together, and sent the Queen Mother out of the door, this time Ruyi was already waiting in Bitong Academy, "Niangniang," Ruyi knelt down and beat a thousand, "The slave is here to serve Niangniang." ”

"The planes have arrived?"

"Yes."

"Let's go, then."

The British ambassador is a red-haired, small, stocky middle-aged man from Birmingham, Birmingham is an important industrial town in the United Kingdom, located in the interior of England, so unlike other colleagues in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs who are as radical, but appear to be safe and introverted, such a person to take charge of China's diplomatic work in the eyes of the British Foreign Office is extremely closed and extremely conservative, it is undoubtedly very appropriate, his work style is shown in his words, at this time in the office building of the General Department of Customs and Excise of the Qing Dynasty, What British Ambassador Howard said is very clear.

"Mr. Director-General," Howard and Hurd complimented after talking about Hurd's three-story white marble building in the independent baroque style of the Customs, and then the two of them turned the conversation back to business with red Chinese tea, "What do you think is the incident that has occurred in the Indochina Peninsula this time?" ”

Hurd put down his pipe, took a sip of tea, and avoided talking about Howard's topic, "Mr. Ambassador, you have been in China for four months, what do you think this ancient oriental country is like?" Impression in your eyes. ”

"The history of this country is long enough for us to be ashamed of Britain, and the history of modern Europe combined is not as glorious as it has in its past, yes, I fully agree with this, but they are indeed inferior to the Western world now, of course, not to mention comparable to the British Empire," as a member of the empire on which the sun never sets, the arrogance and self-confidence of the British Isles are still there, "A country's ability can not be improved by winning a small local battle."
