2-in-1 chapters, it's too late to divide them.

…………

Regarding the history of the Ming Dynasty in the nineteenth century, the two things that later generations love to praise are the courage of the rich emperor, and the other is the wisdom of Dr. Xing.

The world sighed that at the same time, the Ming Dynasty had such a gathering of dragons and phoenixes, why not revitalize China?

……

More than two months have passed since Zhu Fugui published the "Ming Emperor's Letter to All Nations", and in the international political arena, the technique called "electrifying the world" has made politicians from all over the world react for the first time, and the telegraph can still be used like this!

Recently, Zhu Fugui has sent intensive telegrams around the world, accusing the Lincoln administration of shamelessly seducing him, a peace-loving messenger of peace and an innocent little white pigeon, in an attempt to secretly arrest and persecute him.

Lincoln, who was barbaric, treacherous, and morally depraved, personally organized an armed ambush and a sneak attack on the unarmed Ming mission, touching the bottom line of the two armies not fighting each other.

At the critical moment, Emperor Zhu Fugui of the Ming Dynasty had to rise up and resist, opened the Wushuang mode to kill more than 200 people, including the Lincoln bandits, fought in the White House, and successfully escaped back to the Ming Dynasty.

The federal government, on the other hand, categorically denied Daming's claims.

However, in the face of the legitimate demands of the international community for Lincoln to come forward and set the record straight, they were at a loss.

For those clear photos, I don't know how to interpret them.

It wasn't until he couldn't hide it anymore that a White House spokesman said that the news about Lincoln's death was entirely Feikonius.

President Lincoln was injured in an assassination and is currently being treated at the Porter Infirmary in New York.

At this moment, the international community, and even the people of the federal government, exploded.

How can there be such a coincidence in the world, Daming just said that the bloody battle in the White House, and the president on your side was seriously injured and couldn't see anyone?

It is already very clear whose side the facts are on.

Seeing that they did not even believe the announcement they issued, the White House had no choice but to change its statement, claiming that the Ming Emperor had attacked President Lincoln in the name of negotiations, causing him to seriously injure his forehead.

For this kind of statement, there is no need for Zhu Fugui to come out to refute the rumors, and the general public and other dignitaries from other countries have no way to believe it.

In the photo, Lincoln and Rambo Zhu are going head-to-head!

What head of state would take a few guards across 4,000 kilometers to attack the head of another country that is heavily protected? That's not how you play! This is death!

This makes it clear that when Lincoln rounded up the Ming Emperor, he took it lightly and was injured or killed carelessly!

It makes sense.

Isn't this more burning than a knight?

All of a sudden, Zhu Fugui's image was like the head of Che Guevara in later generations, and he became a representative of freedom and courage among the people.

You can hate and despise the yellow race, but that doesn't affect people's devotion to Rambo Zhu.

It's like all racists, when they talk about Temujin, they say that he was brutal, that he destroyed civilization, but no one denies that he is powerful.

All of a sudden, the prestige of the "Khan of Two Guns" resounded all over the world.

……

Zhu Fugui has a wave of popularity in the world, and his cultural value has skyrocketed by 37 million.

However, in China, where there are no telegraphs or newspapers, this news is long overdue.

In the past six months, for the bureaucrats from top to bottom of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, the treacherous situation in the court has reached the point of trembling.

First of all, just after the first month of Shangyuan, the sixth brother of the first emperor, Prince Gong Yi, suddenly made trouble as Zongren Mansion Zongzheng.

Devil Six accused the Queen Mother of the West Palace, and such a disobedient scene appeared.

But according to rumors, the key to this matter is not in the ocean.

The Zongren Mansion investigated and dealt with the Empress Dowager of the West Palace, not only the case of Tongyang, but actually the case of Chang Yu.

The queen mother of the Qing Dynasty is suspected of fornicating with foreigners, and the evidence is conclusive!

The devil has first-hand evidence from North America in his hands, and it seems that the removal of Cixi is a certainty, and it is nine times out of ten.

But who knows, this devil six is the same as in history, he is constantly clever, but he is very lacking in great wisdom.

Historically, in the 4th year of Tongzhi, that is, this year, Prince Gong and Cixi had the first fierce confrontation, and the final result was that he was abolished by Cixi and retained the position of Minister of Military Aircraft.

And this time, Yi  mastered the first move, but still did not finish the battle.

In the matter of the palace change, the evidence is only secondary, and the most important thing is the word "fast".

Back then, Cixi killed Su Shun and others, how could there be any three-hall trial, and the ministers who took care of their orders were not pulled to the entrance of the vegetable market, and they were killed if they said they were killed?

But Yi was afraid of the future, appeased his prestige, and did not dare to cut through the chaos quickly.

Eventually, things will change.

In mid-February, the commander of the Twist, the last glory of the Mongolian cavalry, the whole army of Seng Gelinqin was annihilated in Heze, Shandong.

Shandong shook, North Zhili shook, Beijing shook!

The remnants of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom forces in Nanjing and Huzhou, although they are difficult to bite, there is not much threat left, but this Shandong Twist Army may be killed!

As soon as Monk Lingqin died, did the Manchus still have people who could fight in the north?

Of course not.

Therefore, the Qing court can obviously rely on the only Han armed forces in Jiangnan.

Zeng Guofan's Hunan army needed to continue to besiege Hong Xiuquan and Li Xiucheng in Jiangning Mansion in Jiangsu, and Zuo Zongtang's Chu army needed to continue to encircle and suppress Huang Wenjin and Li Shixian in Huzhou Mansion in Zhejiang.

Therefore, the most ideal candidate is Li Hongzhang and his Huai Army.

Originally, Yi thought that with his personal relationship with Li Hongzhang, Li Hongzhang was appointed as the minister of the Qin Mission, and it was a matter of course for the Shuai Huai Army to go north to supervise the division and suppress it.

After all, the court knew very well that in addition to the dead ghost Su Shun, Shu Yi had the closest relationship with the Han ministers.

But who knows, the imperial court is almost thirteen gold medals to urge Li Hongzhang to take office.

But he just has a headache today, a brain fever tomorrow, or a lack of pay in the army, and he can't move his brother.

Or......

Sixth Master, do you first make up for the silver owed to Huai Jun?

Hearing such news, Yi almost spurted a mouthful of old blood on the ground, and he couldn't wait to go to Shanghai again to beat up Li Hongzhang, a dog minion.

Pulling out the silver?

The court has money, what else do you Hanchen need to do with group training?

Isn't team training just to save money?

If you look at the Hunan army, it has been almost 18 months since the salary was cut off, do people have a complaint?

Look at Zeng Guofan, Zeng Gongbao, what kind of consciousness do people have? What is the position?

Can't you learn from others and use the sage's subtle words to influence those Qiu Ba under you?

In his heart, he cursed the eighteenth generation of Li Hongzhang's ancestors, but there was nothing he could do.

After all, Lao Li's face is not comparable to Yue Wumu, and the face of the sixth prince is not easy to make.

Yi had no choice but to find a way to transfer Zeng Guofan to send troops north to suppress the twist.

However, at this moment, something shocked happened.

In the name of the little emperor, Cixi bypassed him, the king of the council, and directly rushed to order the Hunan army.

Zeng Guofan left his younger brother Zeng Guoquan and his henchman Peng Yulin and others to continue to besiege Tianjing City.

He personally commanded more than 20,000 elite people of the Hunan army, all the way to deploy troops to block the siege, and recruited people along the way, passing through Yangzhou, Qingjiangpu, Xuzhou, and arriving at Zhoujiakou to supervise the division and twist.

Zeng Guofan's strategy of fortifying the town, drawing a river circle, clearing the wilderness, and tracking the horse team stabilized the situation north of the Huai River at once.

At this point, Cixi, who wanted to control the power, the "Qingliu" ministers who hated the Westernization faction such as Yi and Li Hongzhang, and Zeng Guofan, who wanted to assist the young master, protect the famous religion, and become holy, finally converged.

At this time, there was naturally only one last card left in Yi's hand, that is, Cixi and Yang Changyu's affair.

It stands to reason that this is a card that can be counter-killed.

Because since ancient times, there have been many rights and wrongs in front of the widow's door, and it would be okay if Cixi had been living in the deep palace.

But she likes to go out to the garden, and she has the experience of Mulan autumn hunting and being taken by foreigners to stay in the wilderness.

In this way, things are not clear.

In the end, he was also a ruthless person who controlled the late Qing Dynasty for forty years, and Yehenara Cixi did not choose to defend it, but did the opposite.

After controlling Yi by thunderous means, Cixi and the elders of the Zongren Mansion held a secret meeting with the banner masters and other Manchurian people.

The details of the secret meeting are unknown.

But there are several key words in the rumors: Da Yuer and Hong Chengchou, Hanchen sits big, and Han is controlled by foreigners......

All in all, instead of denying the unwarranted, Cixi used it as her own political capital.

After all, the Manchurian has been in the customs for more than 200 years, and Xiaozhuang has made great contributions.

All this ......

It's all for me!

……

Suzhou, Tianku Front Lane, a cluster of new houses.

At eight or nine o'clock in the morning, the sun shines on the eaves, and the air in the south of the Yangtze River in spring is warm.

The bloody storm in Beijing seems to have nothing to do with it.

Today, the plaque of "Li Mansion" is hung on the inner hall of this new house.

Lee's House!

It's festive to watch!

Li Hongzhang stroked his beard and was very satisfied.

is different from ordinary TV dramas, in the Ming and Qing dynasties, not everyone could call the house.

Specifically, this Qing Dynasty is not a prince Baylor, and it cannot be called a mansion.

But now the situation is ......

Hiding a dragon robe at home to entertain himself and play cosplay Lao Li doesn't have the courage yet, but he dares to hang a plaque in Li's house.

invited the troupe to babble and sing a few pieces of the Huangmei tune of the hometown, and the ceremony of moving into the new house was completed.

At this moment, Zhou Yushan suddenly walked in in a hurry.

He looked up and saw that the benefactor was stroking his beard and smiling under the plaque of the Li Mansion, he was stunned at first, and then hurriedly said: "Ming Gong, something is wrong!" It's a big deal! ”

"I agree!"

Li Hongzhang suddenly screamed out uncharacteristically.

"Huh? Ming Gong, what do you agree with? Zhou Yushan was confused.

"Oh...... It's Yushan......"

In fact, Lao Li stared at the plaque of the Li Mansion just now, and he was already thinking about the future Chen Qiao Mutiny, and his subordinates persuaded him to join him in Li Dashuai's yellow robe.

And the No. 1 dog leg persuaded to enter is Zhou Fu and Zhou Yushan in front of him.

But of course he wouldn't say much about it.

Li Hongzhang quietly threw away the few beards that he had twisted under the excitement just now, and then asked, "Is there something wrong?" Why is it so alarmed? ”

"Ming Gong, a big thing, a big thing!"

This matter is indeed too big, so much so that Zhou Yushan stammered when he spoke, "Ming Gong, let's go inside and talk about it in detail!" ”

Seeing that his usually calm staff member was so solemn, Li Hongzhang also became serious.

The two walked into the study and closed the door, and Zhou Yushan took out a few crumpled newspapers from his sleeve.

These newspapers are none other than the "Daming Times (Overseas Edition)" that is advertised in English.

At the first glance, Li Hongzhang saw the date of the foreign newspaper.

After all, he could only read the date.

"Hey, the foreign newspaper in February? Yushan, you are not well-informed! ”

Li Hongzhang had a smile on his face.

As the governor of Jiangsu and the minister of trade with five mouths, Lao Li thinks that he is still very fashionable and modern.

Long before he visited "Citigroup", he knew that foreigners had something much more convenient than Di Bao, called newspapers.

Last year, when the Huai Army was being trained in Shanghai and the Jiangnan Machinery Factory was being set up, Li Hongzhang had to ask people to go to the concession to buy foreigners' newspapers and ask Xing Daotai, a talented foreigner, to help interpret and read them.

Don't really say it, these foreigners, although they look strange, but in fact, their hearts are similar to our Chinese.

What is written in these newspapers is either that the British female emperor has raised a few more heads, or that the king of Rakshasa has robbed the people's daughters, or which foreign monk can't help but be lonely and steals which foreign nun.

In short, these newspapers are exceptionally down-to-earth.

Down-to-earth is down-to-earth, it's fun to listen to as a joke at first, and it's boring and crooked to listen to too much.

So later, Li Hongzhang rarely asked Xing Jiuliu to buy foreigners' newspapers to read.

During this time, when the Huaijun shogunate was moved from Shanghai to Suzhou, Li Hongzhang had never read foreign newspapers.

"Yushan, Xing Daotai is not in Suzhou, what are you doing with this foreign newspaper with me?" Li Hongzhang asked.

"Ming Gong, look carefully!"

Zhou Yushan pointed to the translation written under the printed handwriting of the newspaper with a foreign pencil and said, "This is Xingsun asked someone to translate!" ”

"Xingsun?"

Li Hongzhang took out his gold-wire glasses and recalled, "Oh, it's the kid from the master's family in the Lingering Garden, right?" ”

The so-called "master of the Lingering Garden" is the former political envoy of Hubei Province and a native of Changzhou.

Since Li Hongzhang conquered Suzhou, Sheng Kang bought Hanbizhuang in Suzhou, and after the reconstruction, it was the famous Lingering Garden, and he called himself "the master of the Lingering Garden".

In addition to the Lingering Garden, Sheng Kang also has a more famous son, who is Sheng Xuanhuai, the future money bag of Beiyang, the word Xingsun.

The matter of making money actually has a family history.

Sheng Kang was the first to be the Jiangnan Daying Grain Station, and later when he was a political envoy in Hubei, he was also Hu Linyi's money bag.

Li Hongzhang now considers himself a disciple of Hu Linyi, and has gradually drawn a line with Zeng Guofan, so he has a very good relationship with Sheng Kang.

Sheng Xuanhuai, who is just 21 years old this year, is now preparing for the entrance examination while working in Li Hongzhang's shogunate, and the Sheng family's business is slowly becoming his money bag.

Of course, he Li also protects the Sheng family's business and grows bigger and bigger, such as selling mud legs to Citigroup, which is actually what Sheng Xuanhuai and their family are doing.

As a wealthy person, the Sheng family naturally has some people who can speak foreign language.

Of course, in the eyes of Li Hongzhang and Zhou Yushan, these are just laymen who are coarse and do not understand foreign politics, and they cannot be compared with Xing Jiuliu, a great talent in foreign languages.

Sheng Xuanhuai first entered Li Hongzhang's shogunate, but he did not have the intention of competing for favor with the popular Xing Jiuliu, and even in his opinion, he had a lot to learn from Lord Xing.

But this time, by chance, he got a two-month-old newspaper from a business partner, which frightened him.

So he hurriedly reported it to Zhou Yushan.

"What? Zhu Ming was restored? ”

"Zhu Ming forced the foreigners to cede the city and signed an unequal treaty?"

Li Hongzhang's eyes widened, and his glasses fell to the ground and shattered.
