"Haizhou and Huangzhou are lost?"

"Yes!"

What the fuck is this called? Prince Li secretly complained, he did not understand the military, and he also knew that Haizhou and Hwangju were the only way from Kaesong to Pyongyang, so Pyongyang would be in danger! Pyongyang is not much away from Dandong!

Erle and Bu leaned over, and when they heard this, their faces changed, "Not good! Rong Lu is still in Kaesong, so he is surrounded! "Rong Lu is a first-class minister, if he is lost in North Korea, I am afraid that it will be a scandal of the first rank in the world! For the crime of incompetence, the first one is to blame Li Hongzhang, and the second is to blame all the ministers of Bingzheng and Military Aircraft!

The etiquette can no longer be taken care of at this time, several ministers of military aircraft hurriedly handed over the sign to ask to see, in the Palace of Raising the Heart, the emperor has not yet sat down, he heard such bad news, he couldn't help but be shocked, "These waste! This waste! The emperor's eyes were red, and he couldn't help but shout, "It's all rubbish!" Haizhou and Huangzhou are heavily guarded! Are Zai Yi and Ye Zhichao asleep? ”

"What about Wu Yundi? Where is it? The Emperor asked eagerly. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

"Still in Phoenix!" "There are still more than 300 miles to Dandong!" Now that the railway is not open, and the official road has not been repaired, I am afraid that I will not be able to get to Dandong in a hurry! Not to mention crossing the Yalu River to North Korea! ”

"Then give an order, quickly let Wu Yundi speed up his march!"

"Don't," Sun Yuwen objected, "If you want to hurry, you can't reach it, the new army has certain rules to behave, if it messes up the rhythm, even if it rushes to North Korea, it will be a tired army, and it won't be useful!" It's time to talk to the Japanese first! Hold off the battle beforehand! The Japanese are holding back! Naturally, we have accumulated strength, and we will have a good fight with them! ”

"What peace talks!" Li Hongzao shouted, "You are a traitor, misleading the country!" Traitorous! ”

The two of them quarreled again, and the emperor had a big headache, "Don't quarrel! He shouted angrily, "What are you arguing about?" Hurry up and discuss what to do next! ”

After discussing for a while, he couldn't say anything, except for issuing an edict to ask Li Hongzhang, there seemed to be no other way, Prince Li comforted the emperor, "This telegram is the news three days ago, these days a few people will take back the lost place, not necessarily, the emperor should wait first." ”

The emperor nodded depressedly, he got up and said, "In that case, let's go to Ningshou Palace together, my father passed the play today, let's go and serve together." ”

The emperor took the minister of military aircraft to Ningshou Palace together, there is the largest stage in the Forbidden City, the queen mother doesn't seem to know the defeat on the front line, the mood of the smile looks very good, nodding to the emperor and the ministers of the military aircraft, let them sit down and listen to the play together, the ladies in the palace are also there, the emperor smiling and sitting on the side fidgeting, but he wants to flatter the queen mother, "This drum master is not as good as his son, wait for the next play, or his son will fight!" ”

"You are the king of a country," said the Queen Mother with a smile, "this is not appropriate!" ”

"There is nothing inappropriate," the emperor hurriedly said, "It is the duty of a son to serve his father!" ”

The Queen Mother glanced at the emperor with a smile and nodded, at this time the eunuch who was doing the matter said a word to the emperor, the smile on the emperor's face was slightly stagnant, and he squinted to see the Queen Mother looking at the play on the stage and was fascinated, and quietly stood up, Prince Li also followed behind the emperor, and the two of them went to the corridor and heard the two news that made them almost unable to stand.

"Pyongyang fell, Ye Zhichao and others abandoned the city and fled! The Japanese are approaching Dandong! ”

"The warship Zhan Long bound for Inchon was ambushed by the Japanese Combined Fleet, and all the 1,000 soldiers on board were wiped out!"

The emperor returned to the throne in a daze, looking at the play on the stage in a daze, and didn't know what he was thinking, this was the Dingjun Mountain of the performance, and at the most critical time, the emperor said that he would play the drum himself, so all the people stopped at this time, waiting for the emperor to make a personal move, the emperor did not react for a while, Concubine Zhen said to the emperor, "Long live the lord, the big guy is waiting for you to show your hand!" ”

The Emperor then woke up, "Oh, good. He got up and stood on the edge of the stage, took the drummer's drumstick, and began to beat the drum.

Tan Xinpei's old Huang Zhong is really majestic, took the letter and looked at it, a piece of Xipi flowing water sang out, the emperor beat the drum very well, and suddenly brought up the rhythm, in the Peking Opera, the single skin drum is the conductor, all the people have to listen to the rhythm of the single skin drum, the room applauded, "This letter came by coincidence,

God helped Huang Zhong succeed.

Standing at the gate of the camp and shouting,

Big and small Lang listen to the root seedlings:

The head is drummed, and the war rice is made ......"

Originally, the drum beat was very good, but the emperor didn't know how, and suddenly the rhythm was messed up, and suddenly it changed from a clattering sound to a chaotic rhythm, and the rest of the people panicked, but they didn't know what to do, so they had to follow the emperor to knock it together, and Tan Xinpei, who sang Huang Zhong on the top, was so miserable that he didn't know how to continue.

The emperor knocked faster and faster, and the drum in his hand became a shadow, and he knocked faster and faster, and for some reason, he suddenly burst into tears, and in the end, he almost cried bitterly.

Tan Xinpei on the stage had no choice but to sing this paragraph hard. When Tan Xinpei finished singing, the emperor still beat the drum like crazy.

All the people were shocked and looked at each other, but they couldn't help but look at the Empress Dowager Cixi on the throne, the smile on the Empress Dowager's face disappeared, the corners of her mouth drooped, and she was obviously unhappy.

Everyone bowed their heads and didn't dare to speak, the queen couldn't bear it, and shouted loudly, "Your Majesty! ”

The emperor, who was like a nightmare, woke up in shock, and unconsciously threw the drum on the ground, and the whole room was quiet, and the queen mother slowly stood up and walked in front of the emperor, and the emperor quickly stood up, bowing his head and not daring to look up at the queen mother.

The Empress Dowager glanced at the emperor in disappointment, "For the monarch, if Mount Tai collapses in front of him without changing his color, any glory and any shame cannot be overly excited, let alone show that he cannot control the situation, but he has lost Huangzhou and Haizhou, and he has lost Pyongyang, even if he has lost Shengjing, so what?" ”

"Can the Japanese really act against the sky? Impossible, today's Qing Dynasty, today's China, is no longer the former Wuxia Ameng, for the monarch can not care about the gains and losses of a place, to see the overall situation, to see far-reaching, is the best! Emperor," the Empress Dowager glanced at the Emperor and walked away, "Your cultivation hasn't arrived home yet!" ”
