Chapter 165: Copying the House (I)

"What kind of sin is the emperor killing his mother! Even if it is a stubborn person, he does not dare to act so perversely. The dynasty rules the world with filial piety, and if he does such a thing, he is no longer worthy of being an emperor! Duanwang Chengyi is a big voice, and when he lets go of his voice, he is angry, and there is an echo all over the room.

On the side, his brother Fuguo Gong Chenglan also echoed: "Yes, I got so many assassins, and I want to surround the garden and kill Lafayette, is this worth it?" How else to say that the world is in turmoil, the emperor takes people to make their own antis, just like this, can there be good? ”

This kind of thing was originally a palace secret, and the Empress Dowager Cixi also wanted to suppress it, but she didn't want to spread it, but she didn't want to be spread by these people at the top. Xu Tong, the secretary of the ministry, is nicknamed Lao Dao, and his favorite is the Taishang induction chapter, which is ripe for five thousand words. He is also the most old-fashioned, and his protΓ©gΓ©'s children will be kicked out of his house as long as they bring a Western object. The family is unfortunate, and the son loves to smoke foreign cigarettes and make foreign money. As soon as he mentioned unfilial piety, he thought of his son, felt empathy, and after a violent cough, he also said:

"The dynasty rules the world with filial piety, and now the emperor wants to kill his mother, why is he king the world again? For the common people, if a son kills his mother, relatives and friends can send him to the official for punishment and execution. This emperor, I think it's time to change people. ”

Chengen Gong Chongqi only felt harsh when he heard this, although he was also inclined to abolish the emperor, but it was always wrong to slander the monarch with ministers, not to mention that Xu Tong was still the current Qingliu sect master, so words were even more unacceptable. He couldn't refute it clearly, so he had to knock on the side

"Several, everyone should think about it, even if Lafayette has the heart to abolish the emperor, it is not that he can abolish it if he wants to."

"Why not? If you can stand now, you can waste it! If he hadn't been set up in the first place, why would he be where he is today? Chengyi's eldest brother Chenglian said: "In my opinion, he should be abolished as soon as possible and replaced by someone to be the emperor, maybe the country can still be saved." ”

"But you have to think about it, the matter of Dajin now is not something we can decide. There is still a minister living in the eastern suburbs, and if the foreigners collectively protest against it, it will be difficult to implement this abolition. ”

Cheng Yi said angrily: "What does it have to do with these foreign devils?" Why are you still taking care of other people's household chores? There's no way, now I have to borrow Zhao Guanhou, isn't he able to do foreign affairs? It depends on whether he can explain the foreigner and handle this matter for me. I sent for him a generous gift, and if he was to be accomplished, he would give him a hundred pieces of silver, and see if he did his best. ”

One hundred hangings is one hundred thousand, Cheng Lian felt sorry for the silver, and shook his head, "How can that work?" What kind of thing is he, and he deserves our money? I beat Xiao Jun last time, and this account hasn't been settled with him yet! If he dares to ask for money, I'll kill him! From childhood to adulthood, you were not willing to move a finger at Jun'er, he dared to fight, if it wasn't for the sixth uncle, I would have stabbed him! ”

"Big brother, you dissipate your anger first, and listen to me." Cheng Yi sneered a few times, "I'm also fishing him with a word, so that he can do things for us." How can I forget about beating my son? Wait until Xiao Jun ...... At that time, what kind of sin is he, and do I need to say more? Slow down to himself, I will destroy his nine clans! Now, we have to give him some sweetness so that he can be used by us. This money is like a seal that you will lend to him first, and then you will get it back with interest in the future. ”

Although Xu Tong is the leader of Qingliu, he does not feel that Duanwang's words and deeds are bad when he listens to this secret discussion, but he feels that he is really wise and brave, and the only doubt is that if the negotiation fails, the emperor still cannot be abolished.

Cheng Yi said: "Even if we can't talk about foreigners, we are not afraid!" I'll tell you a few people, our Dajin is now out of the gods! In Shandong, there are several immortals, all of whom have great magical powers, invulnerable, and guns are not injured. Foreigners' stuff, no! In the final analysis, it is still the best thing from the ancestors. They taught their disciples to practice boxing in Shandong, exterminated foreign and killed the sect, and they were very powerful. Yuxian's errand is good, helping the immortals to fight foreigners, and also setting a reward, and the remaining one of the property obtained is under the account, so as to stimulate morale and boost the people's hearts, which can be used. I have already arranged for someone to invite, as long as I invite a few immortals, do spells, and destroy all the foreigners, why worry about the big thing? ”

When Xu Tong and the others heard this, their faces were all colorful, and they all hoped that these immortals would enter Beijing as soon as possible, so that they could see this world-famous supernatural power. In the matter of abolishing the establishment, he is particularly enthusiastic, and he is looking forward to the abolition of heaven to bless the new master, so that he can also become a heavy minister from the dragon and a descendant of Fuyin.

Soon after Zhao Guanhou returned to the Yamen of the infantry army, Chongli and his party also returned, and today's arrest work was still smooth, three of the four Jingqing had been arrested, and the remaining one was also under control. Tan Zhuangfei's father is a vacant governor after all, Shilin is well-dressed, he is too bad at doing things, and he leaves a line in life, including Chongli, and he doesn't want to arrest all people before he gets clear instructions from the Queen Mother.

In fact, even the arrested Sanjingqing, Chongli doesn't think that they will definitely die. Among these people, Lin Risheng is Han Zhonghua's staff, Han Zhonghua is now popular, maybe he can turn around, and it is unknown whether he will be exiled to the army. And the other two, one is Shen Baozhen's grandson-in-law, the other is Zhang Xiangshuai's beloved apprentice, and they are the protectors of Chen Baozhen, the governor of Hunan. Only Zhao Guanhou knew that as soon as this incident came out after the killing of the garden, it would be difficult to get rid of the death penalty.

Chongli currently has another official matter that is difficult to explain, that is, to arrest Kang Liang and Song Bolu, the head of the Ministry of Rites, and put down Wang Zhao and Wang Xiaohang, who are the officials of the six halls. Before the coup d'Γ©tat, Kang Zuyi was sent by the Son of Heaven to prepare an official newspaper, and he was originally going to take an official ship, but he didn't buy a first-class ticket, and he couldn't stand the suffering, so he simply didn't sit down. Changed to Albiang's ship, this time it was a blessing in disguise, the Jin State Government could not go to Albiang to arrest people, and Kang Zuyi was like a fish in the water, difficult to catch.

Liang Rengong, Wang Xiaohang, and Song Bolu, who protected Kang Zuyi, were all in the Fusang embassy, which was another difficult matter. Although he knew where people were, no one dared to say a word.

Ito Hirobumi is now staying at the Japanese Legation, where the security is extremely tight, five steps and one post, ten steps and one sentry, and the guards are armed with guns. Chongli led the infantry yamen, and the scoundrels who governed the Sijiu City were not a problem, but they were not accustomed to the water and soil, and they didn't know where to start. In the event of another war like the Battle of Goryeo, who will be responsible?

He pulled Zhao Guanhou and put his heart in his heart, "Brother Guanhou, Han Dashuai and I are close friends, everyone has something to say, there is no need to hide it." This business is very difficult, the above is urgent, and the handsome man is chasing after him, and it is not easy to be perfunctory. But if you want to take people, it's even harder. In case of an international dispute and a repeat of the Goryeo story, my net worth and life will not be saved. Your brother can do foreign affairs, so you must help with this favor. When it is done, there will be great thanks. ”

"Lord Chong, if you say something like thank you, it's far away, everyone is doing errands for the Queen Mother, these are all due responsibilities, what is the use of thanks. But I have to say a word of discouragement, this will not work. ”

Chongli was stunned, he listened to Han Rong, Zhao Guanhou is proficient in Western language, and he talks and laughs with foreigners, and when Prince Henry came, he also saw Zhao Guanhou talking and laughing freely with the prince and the prince's wife, like old friends. I thought in my heart that he would definitely be able to get things done, why did he pour cold water on it directly?

Zhao Guanhou was afraid that he would misunderstand, so he had to explain again: "Lord Chong, to do the affairs of foreigners, there must always be a charter, and in the public law of all countries, there is also an agreement here." If we have an extradition treaty with a foreigner, we can ask the other party to extradite and return the prisoner in accordance with the requirements of public law. But the problem is that there is no extradition treaty, so we can only watch them go free, and there is nothing we can do. Unless, as Gang Zhongtang thought, he sent someone to the embassy and escorted people out with a knife. ”

Chongli also knows that this is a strong whimsy, and the three heroes and five righteousness who take the flyover to talk about the storytelling and talk about the eaves and the wall are listened to as a real thing, and they don't need to think about it at all. But the handover of official affairs is really difficult.

Zhao Guanhou said: "We have to do enough in this matter, and in the next half a day, I will go to negotiate with the foreigner and apply for extradition." Even if we know that the extradition will not succeed, we have finally done what we should have done, and as for whether it can be done, it is not up to you and me to intervene. ”

"Well, that's the way it can be, and it's all up to you. Zhang Yinheng is finished, Zhang Shaoquan will definitely not come out when he encounters this kind of thing. Zhang Jing, the other ministers of the General Office Yamen, Lafayette basically can't believe it, for fear that they are colluding with foreigners. Those people didn't dare to come forward, for fear of causing trouble for themselves. If you can work, your brother is the only one left. ”

He said that he was encouraging, but in fact, he was also shirking responsibility, and he blamed Zhao Guanhou for the mistakes that would not work out in the future. Zhao Guanhou knew it in his heart, his face was silent, pretending not to understand, and negotiating with foreigners was definitely to be done, and its purpose was not actually to arrest Kang Liang, or in the heart of the Empress Dowager Cixi, arresting these people is not a top priority at present.

This kind of thing can only be understood, not spoken, and if it comes out of her mouth, it will become a smile and generosity. What she wants to negotiate with foreigners is not the stay of one or two criminals, but the rise and fall of the golden emperor.

There has been a time of discord between mother and son between the emperor and the queen, because of the queen, because of the concubines, and because of political opinions, the estrangement between the mother and son is deepening. Now there is another incident after the siege of the garden, which makes the queen mother completely disappointed in the emperor, I am afraid that she has already started to abolish the idea. However, those who are concerned have governors inside and foreigners outside.

The southeast has a strong supervision, and with the majesty of the queen mother accumulated over the decades, he can also try to control the oppression, so that he will not dare to act rebelliously. But if the foreigners always support Emperor Tianyou, they want to abolish him, and it is more powerful than ascending to the sky. When you come into contact with foreigners, arresting them is secondary, and the most important thing is to listen to the foreigners' tone and determine what they think. In other words, what kind of conditions should be issued to make foreigners give up supporting the emperor and unconditionally support the queen mother.

The fewer people involved in this kind of thing, the better, Chongli shook the pot, and Zhao Guanhou also pretended to be confused and took the pot, "Don't worry, your lordship, you must do your best to do this errand well." If God blesses, it will be a great achievement to talk about the errand with the foreigners. ”

Chongli saw that he was so happy, but he was a little embarrassed, and he threw such a pot on the head of an officialdom newcomer, and he was a little unhappy. Moreover, he is young, and if he is of great use in the future, he will wake up to the taste, and I am afraid that he will not be finished with himself.

With a blink of an eye, he thought of a way to reward his merits, and pulled Zhao Guanhou with a smile on his face, "Guanhou, tomorrow morning, don't be busy going to the eastern suburbs, there is another errand that you have to do." Cijia has already issued an order to raid Zhang Yinheng's home. He has been doing foreign affairs for so many years, and he has the most foreign gadgets in his family. The old brother doesn't know anything about this, in case something is not written, he will be scolded again in official affairs. You must do me a favor, and you must help me preside over the house. ”

Zhang Yinheng's ending, as early as the beginning of his offending Li Lianying, was doomed, he asked himself for many years, outstanding achievements, but he didn't know that just because of an emerald hat flower, plus the guilty eunuch, they all turned into smoke. In addition, he later worked for the Son of Heaven, made great contributions to the reform and reform of the law, and was the master of Kang Zuyi, which was a mortal situation.

Cixi has issued an order, the military aircraft will be issued clearly, Zhang Yinheng will be imprisoned, and the family property will be confiscated into the palace, and the specific operator is the infantry army commander Yamen and the Internal Affairs Office, jointly carried out. Zhang Yinheng first ran foreign affairs, and then concurrently served as the household department, and the two first-class fertilizers were lacking in hand, and he didn't know how much family property there was. Raiding his home is clearly an opportunity to make a fortune, and Chongli letting it out is a compensation for Zhao Guanhou.

The arrest of the assassins has been completed, and all the assassins targeted by the government have been spared, and they have been killed for half a day, and all of them have been killed. A few of them were captured alive, and they also found an opportunity to commit suicide, but they failed to catch the live mouth and dig deep into the background. From the perspective of calming things down, this result can be regarded as the best, otherwise the raid will spread, and the situation in the southeast will be unstable.

Chongli made such a great contribution and gave up the interests of the confiscation, but he also reciprocated the peach, and Zhao Guanhou did not refuse. After all, the ten grids are used to making money, and there is a Yang Cuiyu, and the redemption of silver must be a huge amount, and it is always right to take the opportunity to accumulate some net worth.

On the second day, Zhao Guanhou brought 300 infantry to Zhang's house in Xila Hutong early, and Zhang Yinheng himself had already been invited into the carriage by several military attaches of the infantry army. Zhan Ying instructed his subordinates, "It's official business to enter the house and raid the house, but you are not allowed to disturb people's relatives." ”

Zhang Yinheng is a good husband, there are not many concubines in the family, and it is very convenient to place them, as for that Qin Wujiu, he is also the worship of the inner court, and he is not guilty, and no one is embarrassed. On the contrary, he greeted very politely, "Boss Qin, you sit here, the brothers are busy with business, I can't help it." ”

A group of soldiers greeted the butler and took the few relatives out of the house first. The jewelry of the dependents, the satin clothes on their bodies, and even the hidden self-defense life-saving money, whether they should be searched or released, it all depends on whether the clerk is enough to be a friend, and whether the people below are allowed to go. Zhao Guanhou said to Zhan Ying: "Zhan Ye, I think we should get down to business first, and then talk about touching the arms of the eldest girl and little daughter-in-law, this is not big, right?" ”

Zhan Ying knew that the meaning of his words was vague, so he nodded, "This is also the meaning of lowly duties, as long as they don't bring too valuable, it's nothing." ”

The soldiers moved very neatly, and the Song edition books, safes, some boxes for cash, and cabinets for clothes were all laid out and stacked in the courtyard. The officers and soldiers outside set up a cordon, holding spears in their hands to prevent the people from looting.

As soon as the officers and soldiers set up their ranks, a group of cavalry came in the distance, and the leader was very flexible, flew off his horse, took a few steps to the door, and said sharply: "Who is in charge of this place?" Come and talk. (To be continued.) )
