Chapter 359: The Coup d'état

Cixi was taken aback when she heard Rong Lu, and hurriedly asked, "What the hell is going on with Rong Lu?" ”

Rong Lu told Cixi about Yuan Shikai's affairs as it was, and at the same time handed Guangxu's secret decree to Cixi. [Ran^Text^Library] []. [774] [buy]. [com]

Cixi was furious after reading it, trembling her hands, holding the secret decree, and said viciously in her mouth: "Okay, good, Your Majesty, you actually ignored the feelings of mǔ'zǐ and let Kang Youwei, Tan Si and others bewitch you, this is worth it, this is worth it!" ”

Cixi shouted: "Little plum, little plum!" ”

Li Lianying hurriedly ran in from outside, and when she saw Cixi Tieqing's face, she was startled, and hurriedly asked, "Lafayette, where is the minion?" What's wrong with you, why are you moving such a big liver fire? ”

Cixi shouted: "Immediately pass on my will, Prince Qing, Xu Tong, Gangyi, Chongli and Li Hongzhang come to the Summer Palace to discuss matters, and ask them to come quickly, all things are put down, 100,000 urgent!" ”

Li Lianying saw that Cixi's face was not good, and she didn't dare to slack off, so she hurriedly went out and beckoned the eunuch to go down to deliver the decree.

For example, it has darkened today, and by the time several ministers came to the Summer Palace, the time had already passed the third watch.

Everyone came to the Purple Light Pavilion and saw Lafayette, Cixi suppressed her anger and said: "Rong Lu, give this secret decree to all the ministers to take a look, and see what kind of foolish thing our emperor wants to do, ridiculous, ridiculous!" ”

Prince Qing and the others looked at each other, and they didn't know what was going on, and they brought a few people to read the holy decree together, and all of them were pale with shock, and Li Hongzhang also changed color, no matter how he said that he was also a member of the back party, if Cixi really fell, then there would be absolutely no good fruit to eat, not to mention the rest of the people, everyone here, except for Li Hongzhang, is a stubborn leader of the old school who can no longer be stubborn, with their performance in the court during this time, Guangxu cut them down, and it is possible to exterminate the nine clans, Exile on the frontier is the lightest.

Prince Qing Yixuan, his feet were weak, he knelt on the ground, and shouted: "Lafayette, Lafayette, you have to be the master of this matter, the emperor, the emperor is going crazy, this is going to kill his mother, is the way of heaven going to change, Lafayette......"

The rest of the people also hurriedly knelt down, and said in a loud voice: "Lafayette, Lafayette, the ministers ask Lafayette to listen to the government again and kill the traitor!" ”

Prince Qing knelt down and climbed two steps, and said: "Lafayette, the emperor is a great rebellion, as the king of a country, he actually did such a thing that everyone is angry about, the ministers, the ministers asked Lafayette to listen to the government, and asked the emperor to abdicate, Lafayette, the Qing Dynasty can no longer be handed over to him to take charge." ”

Cixi is also so angry that she doesn't know what to do.

After a long time, Cixi said: "Ronglu, you can send a telegram to Yuan Shikai in Tianjin, asking him to lead the Wuwei army to move towards the capital and control all the prefectures and counties around Gyeonggi; Chongli immediately ordered that all the gates of the capital be closed and no one should enter or leave, and then immediately mobilize a large army to pick up all the palaces of the ministers who supported the reformers; Prince Qing, Rong Lu, Xu Tong, you personally led the guards into the Qianqing Palace, and controlled the emperor, such as allowing anyone to approach; Chongli, early tomorrow morning, lead the Praetorian Guard to arrest all the reformers, and not a single one can be spared! I will put all these rebels to death to relieve the hatred in my heart! ”

Everyone went down to act, and the whole city of Beijing fell into a panic.

Chongli led the forbidden army in the capital and began to arrest people everywhere, and all the gates of Beijing were closed, making it difficult for anyone to escape.

In the Nanhai Hall, Kang Youwei and others had not rested, Kang Youwei, Yang Shenxiu, Tan Si and others sent Liang Qichao away in the evening and returned to the Nanhai Hall to continue to discuss the dispute between the two parties.

When everyone was talking, the people at the door outside were kicked directly, only to see the big sword king five rushing in from the outside, and shouted in a hurry: "Resurrection, resurrection, the big thing is not good!" ”

Kang Youwei and the others were shocked, Tan Si stood up with Huo, and said unhappily: "Fifth brother, what's wrong with you, didn't you see that I was discussing with all the gentlemen, why were you so reckless, so you kicked in the door directly." ”

Wang Wu was so anxious that he stomped his feet and said, "Discussion? What's the matter, hurry up, hurry up, now there are people everywhere in the imperial city, the forbidden army has outflanked the mansion of the new school lords, and now it is coming towards the Nanhai Guild Hall, you hurry up, hurry up, you can't leave if it's too late! ”

"Ahh Everyone was shocked.

Kang Youwei said hurriedly: "What's the matter, why did the party suddenly start to act, and there was no sign at all?" ”

Wang Wu replied: "Everyone can't explain so much, there is no time, everyone quickly takes out the city of Beijing is the right thing, once you are arrested by the officers and soldiers, I am afraid that your life will not be saved, this time the movement is too big!" ”

Kang Youwei was so anxious that tears flowed out of his eyes, and he said, "Let's escape? We're leaving, what should the emperor do? Now the emperor is afraid that he is more dangerous than us. ”

Everyone reacted, yes, since Cixi dared to send troops to arrest the rebels, it means that he has made up his mind to kill on a large scale, and at the same time, Guangxu's throne may not be able to be kept, but he is afraid that his life is in danger.

Tan Sitong hurriedly said: "No, we must organize forces to attack, and the emperor will come out, without anyone to protect him, the emperor is too dangerous!" ”

Wang Wuqi stomped his feet, how could this group of papaya heads be so unenlightened, just with our one hundred and ten people, they marched into the palace and rescued the emperor together, isn't that a joke, let alone such a few people, even thousands of people are impossible.

Wang Wu shouted: "What are you talking about? The emperor is the king of a country, no one dares to ask for his head easily, if you don't leave now, but you will lose your head 100%, hurry up! ”

Yang Shenxiu replied: "Let's go, where can we go now?" ”

Kang Youwei replied: "In this case, then let's go to the Rì'Běn Embassy, and with the care of the Rì'Běn Embassy, our lives are safe." ”

Wang Wu shouted: "Shit rì'běn embassy, which green onion are they?" Let's go to the German embassy, quickly, the German ambassador, when I used to follow Jianzhi, I had a good relationship with Jianzhi, we had to go to the German embassy! ”

Kang Youwei hesitated a little, these days, he and Ito Hirobumi have a very close relationship, a lot of friendship, in the past, Ito Hirobumi should be able to protect himself, go to the German Embassy, then it is not something he can control. Tan Sitong immediately made a decision and said: "Okay, Brother Nanhai, you lead some people to the Rì'běn embassy, and I will take the other part to the German embassy, and act separately, even if in the future, some of us are arrested, and we have other colleagues, stay in Qingshan without worrying about no firewood, and there will be a comeback in the future, hurry, hurry up!" Everyone still packed up their things haphazardly, sweating endlessly, and shouted: "Hurry up, don't want anything, xìng's life is important, go quickly!" ”
