May 5, 19o8 (the thirty-fourth year of Guangxu), Neijiang, Xingke headquarters.

"What? Empress Dowager Xi suddenly vomited blood yesterday and fell unconscious? Or is she critically ill...... Is the news true?"

On this morning, Liu Yang suddenly came with news from Tianjin, which stunned Wen Desi.

Liu Yang said: "Based on the feedback from the monitoring devices installed in the Qing palace by our Beijing intelligence station, as well as the reports of many informants, it can be confirmed that it is true, at least not yet." One of the informants was a medical officer from the Tai Hospital, who participated in the treatment of the Empress Dowager Xi, and according to his reaction, the Empress Dowager Xi was in a very serious condition, and she was old, so I am afraid that she would not be able to withstand this month......"

"How can this be?" Wen Desi was a little puzzled, according to history, Cixi should indeed die this year, but there should be a few more months.

Liu Yang said very calmly: "Well, according to intelligence, the reason is that Cixi read a few copies of "Qing Palace Fever", which contains the story of her being the protagonist. I think she's probably too excited, she's old, she's not in good health, and it's normal for something to happen......" The breezy expression and tone of voice were as if the "Spring Palace Operation" was not presided over by him.

Are you so excited? Can you be more undisciplined? This is obviously annoyed and angry, okay?

"Hehe, if Lafayette hangs up this time, most likely he will be angry with your Tianjin branch......" Wen Desi was speechless.

"Then I should feel honored......" Liu Yang smiled politely.

When I met the strange people of the Tianjin branch, Cixi was really unlucky. When I encountered the Beiyang Mutiny last year, I was so angry that I vomited blood, and I haven't recuperated yet, but now I see the aV masterpiece I starred in passionately, how can a person of such an age stand this kind of stimulation.

It's a sad story.

Wen Desi rolled his eyes for a long time, and couldn't help but ask, "Liu Yang, I want to ask a personal question, how much is left of your discipline?"

Liu Yang asked with a puzzled face: "Jie Cao, Mr. Wen, what is it, can I eat it?"

“...... Well, I didn't ask. The effect of the Spring Palace operation is very good, and I will give you a great credit for the Tianjin branch. Wen Desi felt that if he continued to talk to him on this topic, his remaining few festivals would be in jeopardy, so he changed the topic and said: "She usually lives in the palace, how can she see "Qing Palace Fever"?

"There are indeed people in the court who buy this set of books, but they are not sold by our people, but by some second-class dealers. But this is not how Cixi's book came from, the earliest source is the eldest son of Prince Qing, Zai Zhen......" Liu Yang explained.

About half a month ago, a clothed servant of Prince Qing's family bought a few copies of "Qing Palace Fever" in the hands of illegal vendors. When he hid in the back garden and watched with relish, he was inadvertently inspired by the little prince who was walking in the house. After Jae-jin grabbed and read a few pages, he was furious, and ordered the wrapper to hand over all the H books, and punished him to go to the market to buy all the kinds again. Zai Zhen said that we must pay attention to this kind of cultural poisonous weeds, and we must never let it go, so he must first study these big poisonous weeds, understand them clearly, and then criticize them in depth.

Within a few days, those grandmasters and relatives who had close friends with Zai Zhen, as well as fox friends and dog friends, joined the criticism activities one after another. Each of them bought at least one set, and some bought several sets, and they got together every day to seriously study and discuss this set of "Qing Palace Fever" workmanship, and deeply revealed and criticized it.

Fortunately at the beginning, although the protagonists of "Qing Palace Fever" are all their ancestors, but because they started to read according to the background age, the protagonists of the first few "criticisms" are all predecessors who are separated by generations such as Lao Nu , Huang Taiji and so on, so it did not affect the interest of these Eight Banners in the slightest, but they have a kind of pleasure of peeping at the ancestors**. These guys don't have much discipline either.

But after a few days, something went wrong.

As the era of the protagonists gets closer and closer, the relationship with this gang of gentlemen is getting closer and closer. The grandfather of the gentleman is honored to be the protagonist of a certain book, the protagonist of the proper dragon Aotian template, the encounter again and again, has been the grandmother and mother of the gentleman, and also invited the family to eat the "whole family bucket".

Seeing this, the gentlemen were proud, and the gentlemen who had nothing to do with themselves laughed wildly. But Su Yi and Su Yi couldn't help it, and in shame and anger, they held down the fat and beat the fat man, and the other gentlemen not only did not dissuade them, but laughed even more. These two red eyes, there is no weight under the hands, the armor was beaten alive and was seriously injured and unconscious, watching the lively gentlemen realized that something was wrong, and quickly invited a doctor for treatment.

As a result, the unlucky classmate was beaten too hard, the injury was too serious, and he was not saved, and he died the next day. Now the matter is getting bigger, no matter what the father of the gentleman says, he is also a county king, where can he swallow this breath, he will directly sue Cixi. Cixi was furious and immediately sent someone to investigate.

The matter was not complicated in the first place, and it was quickly investigated, but those investigators did not know how to report it, and those incriminating evidence did not dare to hand it in. Cixi urged repeatedly, but those people just refused to speak. Finally, the enraged Cixi ordered them to be dragged out and beaten, and the men stammered what had happened.

Cixi didn't know whether it was out of curiosity or to find out what was going on, so she ordered the evidence to be presented for review. The investigators' faces were all pale and they were about to pee in fright, but Lafayette was angry, did he dare to disobey his orders?

After getting the dozens of "incriminating evidence", Cixi flipped through them, and the more she looked at them, the more angry she became, and after flipping through a few copies, she immediately ordered that all the gentlemen be grounded. When she saw the comic book she starred in passionately, she was so angry that she was about to explode. After she flipped to the point where she rolled the sheets with three men at the same time to play 4p, and was made into "sandwich biscuits" by three men, she couldn't hold back a mouthful of old blood for a long time, and then her eyes went black, and she fell straight down......

..................................................................

"Actually, I have always felt that the Empress Dowager Xi was excited rather than angry. Because the image blueprint of the heroine of that comic book is a famous video network host in South Korea in the 21st century. She is much more beautiful than the Empress Dowager herself, this is simply beautification. How could she be angry because she was glorifying herself?......" Liu Yang spread his hands and said with an innocent face.

For this kind of shameless words, Mr. Wen had to pretend not to hear it, changed the topic and asked, "How is the gold absorption plan going?"

Speaking of this matter, Liu Yang also became serious: "It is very smooth, through the efforts of our Tianjin branch, most of the Eight Banners magnates have become depositors and debtors of Delong Bank. About 85 of the total number of people who became our depositors were magnate. 6%, and the total amount of deposits reached 37. 8.8 billion silver dollars. There is also a collection of high-value items such as gold bars, gold bricks, gemstones, jewelry, etc., which are rented in our vault. In addition, there are a large number of property deeds, title deeds, jewelry, antiques, calligraphy and paintings as pledges for loans, and a detailed list will be given to you later. The debtor reached 1365o people, and the total debt reached 3. 5,300,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000......,000,000,000,

"Very well, you guys have worked hard. Please keep up the good work......" As for how they "work hard", Wen Deji doesn't worry at all.

The people in the Tianjin branch are all strange people with high IQ and low temperament, and they can do anything without a lower limit, but the absolute effect is extraordinary, and it would be good if the elites of the Eight Banners were not played to death. There is an old saying that when Heaven takes away something from a person, it compensates him for something else. Liu Yang and his subordinates probably paid the price of their own moderation, so that they got a very high IQ and powerful professional skills endowed by God.

"In addition, closely monitor the movements of the Qing court, if Cixi can't survive, the Qing court will definitely be in chaos, and you can act when the time comes......"

..............................................................................

On May 8, information came from Beijing that Cixi had woken up. But it seems that it is already in a state of returning to the light, and it won't last long.

Cixi was also very aware of her state, and the first thing she did after waking up was to summon Prince Qing Yixuan, Prince Su Shanqi, Minister of Military Aircraft Yuan Shikai, Zhang Zhidong and other clan nobles and important ministers to her bedroom for a secret meeting.

This secret meeting was only a secret that the Qing court thought it was a secret, but it was not a secret at all in the eyes of the CSD, and the bugging devices and monitors installed in the dormitory transmitted every word and expression of their every word to the CSD intelligence officers in great detail. After the intelligence personnel of the Tianjin branch sorted out and analyzed the information, it would be transmitted back to the Neijiang headquarters as soon as possible.

This meeting was mainly to decide on the crown prince, but the crown prince proposed by Cixi was not Pu Yi of the original time and space, but Pu Ru, the younger brother of Pu Wei, the king of Xiaogong. Although this result was unexpected by Xingke and others, it was also reasonable.

Because the current history is completely different from the original time and space, Cixi knows very well that if the current Qing court wants to continue to exist, it can only rely on Yuan Shikai's Beiyang Army. Moreover, Yuan Shikai has now fully seen the weakness of the Qing court, and his attitude is stronger than that of the original time and space, and his fear of Cixi has also dropped significantly.

Prince Alcohol Zaifeng's hostility to Yuan Shikai is well known, and it is strange that Yuan Shikai would agree if he made his son the crown prince. If the big head does not agree, he will reluctantly let Pu Yi become the crown prince, and he will not be able to sit in a stable position. Rather than this, it is better to choose a candidate that everyone can accept.

Pu Ru is a cultural person, with a gentle personality, and his power is not heavy, and he is the only one left in Prince Gong's mansion, and he has no strong direct relatives. Even if such a person becomes the emperor, he is not a threat to the big head, and the big head can barely accept it. On the other hand, Pu Ru is the younger brother of Pu Wei, the standard-bearer of the anti-Yuan faction, and all the relatives in the family died in the Beiyang Mutiny, so they must not be able to go together with the big head, and the anti-Yuan clan can also accept it.

Of course, there is also one of the most important reasons, that is, Cixi liked him very much, not only invited a teacher to let him study in the palace, but also reserved a bedroom for him, which is the treatment only a prince has.

In fact, the eldest son of Prince Qing, Zaizhen, was also very promising, but as soon as the "Qing Palace Fever" incident came out, he thought about it. Lafayette didn't let people drag him out and chop him with a knife, it was already for his father's sake.

So, Pu Ru's little classmate, who was still waiting to inherit Prince Gong, was smashed by this pie that fell from the sky, and he became the crown prince of the Qing Dynasty in a daze. As for what the current emperor Guangxu would think, no one paid attention to it at all, and he didn't dare to pay attention to it, and he would soon have no ideas.

Once the crown prince was decided, the meeting ended. After the ministers went out, Cixi left her closest confidant, Li Lianying, and she whispered a few words, and Li Lianying's face suddenly changed greatly. There is no way, no matter how fat Li Lianying is, it is impossible to be calm when he hears what the boss wants him to do. However, under Cixi's forced gaze, he had no choice but to grit his teeth and accept it. If you do this, you may die, but if you don't agree, you will die immediately, does Xiao Lizi dare to disobey?

In the afternoon of the same day, the guard eunuch of Yingtai entered the palace to report that Emperor Guangxu, who was imprisoned in Yingtai, suddenly had a heart attack and died. Several concubines who waited for Emperor Guangxu also committed suicide because of excessive grief.

After hearing the news, Cixi nodded expressionlessly, then let out a long breath, and then ordered all the important ministers to enter the palace. Cixi first informed them of the death of the Guangxu Emperor. To be honest, this news was tightly sealed, and it had not yet been spread, except for the intelligence officers of the Xingke Group, people outside the palace did not know about it at all.

The ministers were overwhelmed by the news. Nima, the crown prince was determined in the morning, and the emperor was hung up in the afternoon, how could there be such a coincidental thing in the world? Guangxu is not very old, and he has not heard of anything wrong with him, so how can he suddenly have a heart attack? Not to mention that although he was imprisoned, he was only forced to be an otaku and was not abused, and the emperor enjoyed a lot of things, so how could there be such a reason to say that death is death?

But it's good to know this kind of thing, and besides, many people are looking forward to his death, and if Lafayette dies and he is not dead, there will definitely be many people who will follow Lafayette. Didn't you see that after Cixi announced Guangxu's death, Yuan Datou, Yixuan and others breathed a long sigh of relief?

Cixi asked the important ministers to prepare for the succession of the new emperor, and arranged for Prince Qing Yixuan, Prince Su Shanqi, Minister of Military Aircraft Yuan Shikai, and Zhang Zhidong to be ministers of Gu Ming to assist the little emperor Puru. Cixi's face became more and more pale, and after the meeting was over, the ministers finally couldn't support it anymore, her head tilted, and she passed out again.

That night, Cixi also followed in the footsteps of Emperor Guangxu and died.

On May 1o, the Qing court sent a telegram announcing the deaths of Cixi and Guangxu. Since then, the curtain has come down on Cixi, who had ruled China for nearly half a century, and it was the end of an era. But for many, Cixi's death was just the beginning, and a new chapter in history began.
