"Is there a big risk?" The Empress Dowager Cixi thought about it, and still asked directly, Hengzhi was a close servant, and did not say outside, "You must know that the emperor will be in charge in the second half of the year." Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ”

"What the Imperial Doctor means is that it's fine, but you just need to recuperate," Li Lianying said, "What does Lafayette mean?" ”

"I don't mean anything, since he is not in good health, then take a good rest," the Empress Dowager Cixi said calmly, "At this time, many people are either not in good health, or they don't want to be promoted, and they are waiting for future changes." ”

Li Lianying was silent, since the Empress Dowager Cixi proposed to withdraw the curtain and return to the Guangxu Emperor in the autumn of last year, the government and the opposition have been for a while, at the beginning countless courtiers wrote to ask the Empress Dowager Cixi to take back her life, and then hang the curtain for a few years, but I didn't expect the Empress Dowager Cixi to be resolute, and many folds were ignored, and this year, the tide of dissuasion slowly subsided, and after it calmed down, many things have undergone subtle changes, and Li Lianying naturally knows where this change comes from.

"I'm not saying that the Seventh Master is lazy, he is willing to take care of the water master, I am already very satisfied, but this Li Hongzhang is really going back more and more," the Empress Dowager Cixi shook her head, "I originally thought that Zuo Zongtang's good example is here, he can always learn a little, but I didn't expect that the courage to risk his life and wealth to participate in the battle at Bali Bridge in the past, now I really don't know where to go, blindly thinking about protecting myself, and I don't want to enter Beijing to go to troubled waters." ”

The Empress Dowager Cixi said grumblingly, "Li Hongzhang is the best person to be an official. "There were so many beatings back then, presumably this time Li Hongzhang was beaten back, Yang Bai's case, the Zhejiang officialdom, almost half of Li Hongzhang's descendants were all dismissed and never used, Sheng Xuanhuai went to Yunnan to serve for a few years before he was released back to Shandong as a political envoy, which was the punishment of Li Hongzhang by the Empress Dowager Cixi.

But she is not only punished, the best way to let Li Hongzhang come to Shandong is to hand over Beiyang to him, but now, the Empress Dowager Cixi shook her head, "That's it, I guess many people, seeing that I am going to withdraw the curtain and return to the government, I have other ideas and ideas in my heart, which is normal," she looked open, but still a little displeased, "When the layout of the local army in Beijing is completed, I will let them go." ”

"Long live Lord is still very young, and he always has to rely on the grace of Lafayette to smoothly run the country." An Dehai hurriedly said, "Don't say anything else, just look at Lafayette's compassion Long Live Lord, Long Live Lord will also be grateful to Dade." ”

"This is nature," the Empress Dowager Cixi said with a smile, "I can see the emperor's filial piety." "At this time, the eunuch outside came to report, saying that the minister of military aircraft handed over a sign to ask to see, the Empress Dowager Cixi waved her hand, and asked the palace maid to take away the candied fruit on the kang table, stood up by herself, and sat down on the throne. Therefore, I put the various books at the end of the finale, and discussed the candidates for the two governors first.

Everyone has their own meaning, although Prince Li does not blame Sun Yuwen for his rudeness, but he still proposed his own candidate Zai Ling, Zai Ling is one of the most hated people in the Eight Banners Reform in the past, of course, relying on this matter, he also successfully entered the eyes of the Empress Dowager Cixi, Prince Li secretly thought to himself, at least this candidate, the Empress Dowager will not refuse.

"Zai Ling's qualifications are enough," Empress Dowager Cixi didn't know if it was okay, "It's just that the local experience is still a little worse, being an errand in the court is not the same as being a local errand boy, the head of the ministry is only in charge of a line, and in the locality, it is a large number of things." Are there any other candidates? ”

Sun Yuwen took a step forward, "Weichen recommends Li Hongzhang, the governor of mountains and rivers. ”

Prince Li hurriedly looked at the Empress Dowager Cixi, and the corner of the Empress Dowager Cixi's mouth showed a smile, after so many years of getting along, Prince Li knew very well what this smile represented.

Li Hongzhang returned to the Anhui Hall and entered the small courtyard where he lived, his daughter Ju Couple stepped forward and personally served the old father to change his clothes, and took off his warm hat, Li Hongzhang's forehead was full of sweat, and his hair was also soaked with sweat, Ju Couple was taken aback, "Father, what's wrong with you?" ”

Li Hongzhang half-closed his eyes, sat down on the Taishi chair, shook his head, and shook his head again, "Today in the palace, this performance is not easy." ”

He settled down, and after a while, he came to his senses, and then carefully said to his daughter about the right thing today's royal prelude, Ju Couple helped Li Hongzhang wipe the sweat off his forehead, and listened to Li Hongzhang's 1510 finished speaking, and finally couldn't help but sneer, "My daughter has already said it, you think about it like this, it is inevitable that it will not work, will you see it?" The Queen Mother has given you a chop. ”

"You are the queen mother's hand, no matter what, your identity can't be changed, my daughter has already said, this errand should be cautious, you have so much silver scattered everywhere, there are not many people who give you better, there are really many people who are red at you, isn't this just for the queen mother? Yes, yes! ”

Ju Coupling smiled skillfully, and Li Hongzhang was not angry, but smiled bitterly, "Isn't it hard to be a father?" ”

"But the queen mother has the grace to tolerate people, and she probably won't deal with you, so don't worry," Ju Couple said quickly and crisply, she took off the court clothes covered by Li Hongzhang, exposed the python robe inside, and the maid served tea again, "I look at the holy will of the queen mother, as long as she is dedicated to her errands and a little careful, she will only smile and pass by, and she will not be harsh." ”

"Daughter, how can you know the Queen Mother's mind so well?" Li Hongzhang listened to Ju Couple's words, and couldn't help nodding yes, "You must know that you have never met the Queen Mother." ”

"The Queen Mother has been in power for many years, her style, not to mention her daughter, and your father are not clear?" Ju Couple smiled, "It's just that your father is a fan of the authorities, and your daughter is a bystander, so it is clear that you don't want to enter Beijing, didn't the Queen Mother agree?" ”

"Then according to your opinion," Li Hongzhang said with a smile, "Can a husband get his long-cherished wish?" ”

Ju Couple smiled playfully, "This is indispensable, it was not originally decided by my father, but if you say so, the Queen Mother will definitely fulfill your father." (To be continued.) )
