The drum noise in the south faintly came into the Yinghua Palace, and the word "Queen Mother" could still be heard vaguely, Hongli sat in the hall, the corners of his eyes were twitching, and a heart was also seven up and eight down, rare peace.

"The Qing Dynasty is a wall of rotten bricks and broken tiles, long live you, you are just a bright wall, without the glutinous rice paste of the main palace, this wall would have collapsed a long time ago. Long Live Lord was bewitched by the Fourteenth Master and wanted to come and tear down this wall, for the sake of the Qing Dynasty, he could only be wronged by Long Live Lord to be calm and calm here......"

Ru Xi's cold words were still echoing in Hongli's ears, and his heart was full of fear at this time.

Where is this? Yinghuadian ...... Ru Xi lived alone here for ten years, and his father was imprisoned here, and then beheaded by the Holy Dao in the Guangxu chaos, leaving only a headless corpse.

The grass and trees here are withering, life is hard to find, birds and gophers seem to be extinct, Ru Xi left himself here, what is his intention? Are you going to dispose of yourself secretly like your father?

Hongli regretted it very much, but whether he regretted not being able to deal with Ru Xi more first, or regretting that he shouldn't have the heart to deal with Ru Xi more, he didn't figure it out himself. His greatest wish is to get by in front of the Son of Peace, and now ......

When he was panicking, he suddenly heard a commotion outside the temple.

"Fu Qing! You are not worthy of being a member of the Fucha clan! I, Fu Heng, don't have you anymore! ”

"Don't you understand my hard work, Fu Heng...... I will give up my life, but who will protect the emperor's life!? ”

It was Fu Qing and Fu Heng brothers, Hongli lamented. The day before yesterday, he entered Kunning Palace, but was called to the dormitory, and thought that Ru Xi was going to have a bad relationship with him again, thinking that while doing things, he could also listen to the tone, so he went, but at the door of the dormitory, he was taken down by Chang Bao and other guards.

After that, Chang Bao should have borrowed his own name, and took Fu Qing and others, Fu Qing threw a mouse bogey, and did not resist desperately. led dozens of hardcore henchmen and detained them in the Yinghua Hall with him.

Fu Heng and other personal guards escaped when Chang Bao took people, and they also went to the palace, trying to find an opportunity to save themselves. It should have been searched out and taken here together.

As he expected, the entire Forbidden City has been controlled by Ru Xi, but the poor fourteenth uncle is still ignorant, and he doesn't deeply understand it, and he only knows how powerful he moves.

"Hooray! This is the place where the emperor died. That witch will never let the Long Live Lord live again, and when she holds the authority, it will be the day when the Long Live Lord suffers! Long live Lord, we can't sit still! ”

Fu Heng rushed into the hall and kowtowed to Hongli and cried.

This is what Hongli fears the most, but he still has great hope, no matter how much he is with her, he can be regarded as a ...... What's the matter, she won't be so vicious.

"Ru Xi just wants to eradicate Prince Xu's faction. How could she, a woman, hold the authority with her own hands? Don't rely on the emperor yet? As long as the emperor is patient and obedient, he will stand on her side. After cleaning up the prince and pacifying the Nanban, she has to use the emperor to calm the field, otherwise our Qing Dynasty will really collapse. ”

Fu Qing followed up in the hall, and an explanation was also Hongli's heart, as long as he endured it for a while, he would eventually have a chance to turn over.

Fu Heng shook his head and said, "How can Ru Xi allow the emperor again?" She wants to hold power, some of them are puppets! Let's not talk about Brother, she still has Hong ...... in her hand."

Fu Qing was stunned, and Hongli was even more like being hit by thunder. His eyes straightened.

Damn, why didn't you think of this!

Hong is the orphan of the former emperor, and his biological mother is Concubine Ning Ru'an, who was accepted as a parent by Ru Xi, and is as old as Hongli's eldest son Yonghuang, both of whom are nine years old. Named Baylor.

In the eyes of Fu Qing, Fu Heng and others, Ru Xi really has the heart to lift the current emperor off the dragon chair, and he will inevitably choose Hong, so that he can listen to the government. Although the brother and brother did not conform to the patriarchal law of the Qing Dynasty, after Ruxi got rid of Prince Sui, he was in power, and he dared to overthrow the patriarchal law if he dared to hang the curtain, and it was natural for him to push his son onto the dragon chair. …,

But what frightened Hongli was not Hong, but the fifth elder brother Yongqi......

Hongli had five sons, of whom only three remain. The eldest elder brother Yonghuang is from the imperial concubine Fucha clan, nine years old, the second elder brother Yonglian is from the queen, seven years old, the third elder brother and his mother Su Jiashi died six years ago, the fourth elder brother Yongjue passed on to Prince Kang, and the fifth elder brother Yongqi is now three years old, and it is from the Yu Concubine Keriette clan, of course, this is only nominal.

Yongqi is actually the son born to him and Ru Xi!

To be honest, it's not that he knows the ins and outs, it's not that he helps cover it up, and it's not that he is protected by the Wen Po group who was taught in the Yingci Academy, Hongli doesn't believe that Ru Xi, who is already forty years old, can still have children! That year, Ru Xi lived in the palace and gave birth to this son, and he was quite happy.

Just because he had such an entanglement with Ru Xi, he didn't have an iron heart and did it as soon as possible, but went to Ru Xi to find out. Because of this relationship, although Hongli was frightened, he didn't want to believe that Ru Xi would really be ruthless.

But now that Fu Heng is talking about Hong, Hongli is thinking about Yongqi. Ru Xi lifted herself off the dragon chair, she didn't need to be a brother and a brother, as long as she chose the fifth elder brother Yongqi to succeed her, which was her own son......

Coupled with Hong, Ru Xi has two sons in her hands, one is nominal and the other is nameless, she chooses a lot, and she doesn't have to care about herself as an emperor at all. When did this woman talk about affection? Since the Holy Dao chose her as a person from the north and south, she was afraid that she would lose her humanity, and she was bent on seeking authority.

After figuring out the joint, Hongli was suddenly covered in a cold sweat, and she didn't dare to have any illusions about Ru Xi, she got herself to Yinghua Palace, maybe she was still hinting that she was simply cutting herself off.

It's hard to say that someone will send Bai Aya poisonous wine in the next moment, and he is really willing to die like this?

In a trance, I heard Fu Qing grit his teeth and say, "Little brother, what you said is right, we can't sit still!" ”

Hongli secretly said, they have all become prisoners, what else can they do?

But he heard Fu Heng say: "If what Prince Sui said before was true, it was Ru Xi who originally intended to assassinate the Holy Dao in Xi'an, then Ru Xi and the Holy Dao should have torn their faces." Ru Xi was anxious to push Prince Sui out as a scapegoat, and for this she had to take power herself. In order to stabilize this authority, she can't tolerate the emperor anymore, so will the Holy Dao allow this to happen? ”

Fu Heng's words sounded like he was going around in a big circle, but as soon as he talked about the "Holy Dao", Hongli felt a wave of enthusiasm in his heart.

That's right, Ru Xi doesn't have to look at his uncle's face after all!? If the uncle opened his mouth, she Ru Xi really had the courage to be ruthless!?

Hongli opened his mouth and said, "Go find Lord Chen!" Nanban ...... No, Chen Run from the British Consulate General! He can save me! ”

Fu Qing and Fu Heng froze, this is the right direction, but there are still two major problems to be solved, the first is how to get on the line with Chen Run. The second is that Chen Run, and even the Holy Dao Emperor in the south, why should they help them.

To the east of the Forbidden City, three miles from the inner city. It was originally an urban area under the jurisdiction of Daxing County, Shuntianfu, Beijing, and after the signing of the "Anglo-Qing Peace Agreement", a new building was erected here as the territory of the Consulate General of the British General Office in Daqing. Ten years later, the people of Beijing have confused the place name "Sanlitun" with the British Consulate General.

On 23 February, Sanlitun was surrounded by a large number of soldiers. There is a word "step" on the uniform, indicating that this is the soldier of the infantry army commander Yamen and the commander of the Nine Gates. And their immediate boss, Qingfu, was in the consulate general, groveling, chattering endlessly at a young official in his thirties, in a purple robe and black veil.

Chen Run, deputy governor of the British General Affairs Pavilion and consul general of the Consulate General in the Qing Dynasty, waved his hand angrily to stop Qingfu's words: "There is a limit to the patience of this official. It's your business how you make trouble, anyway, within this month, someone who can decide the affairs of the Qing country must come forward to take over the credentials. As for the things you said. It is your Qing internal affairs ......"...,

Chen Run said loudly: "I, Great Britain, will never interfere in the internal affairs of other countries!" ”

Seeing that Qingfu was about to speak with a bitter face, Chen Run said again: "You just go back and ask your queen mother, why should we help her!?" His Majesty the Emperor is still waiting for her letter of apology. ”

Qingfu sighed helplessly, and then respectfully said goodbye and left, and as soon as he left, the consular officials around Chen Run suddenly exploded.

"The more chaotic the Qing Kingdom, the better, why don't we intervene!?"

"Let's just make a statement, the witch will never dare to move the prince, let alone Qianlong!"

"yes, let them fight each other. The more we fight, the better it will be for us! ”

"As long as the upper echelons of the Qing Kingdom break up, it will be the day of the Northern Expedition, the head of the society, what are you waiting for?"

Listening to the noise of his subordinates, Chen Run sighed leisurely: "Northern Expedition? Is it time for the Northern Expedition? ”

The Manchus were too fragile. The emperor stirred up the Xi'an assassination case like this, the Manchu Qing Dynasty couldn't bear it, and the superstructure that had been built up for ten years collapsed, and Na Ruxi had to take the throne strongly, from the concubine to the queen mother, and to sit behind the scenes to take the front of the stage to take power, in order to continue to protect the Manchu Qing Dynasty.

The great changes of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, in addition to the momentum created by the emperor, and the pressure of the red clothes in Shaanxi, actually also have the credit of the Tongshi Pavilion. Chen Run was ordered to rush north to take charge of the negotiations with the Manchus, which was to exert pressure from the diplomatic level. I was not in a hurry to ask Emperor Qianlong to receive the letter of state, and now I am still giving Ru Xi a grace time, just waiting for the Manchus to fight a new pattern by themselves, and then wait for the dividends.

But now it seems that this set of serial moves is a bit too strong, and his own horse reins are a little unbearable. Originally, the emperor just wanted to bake people's hearts and build momentum in advance, but he didn't think about the Northern Expedition immediately. The words of the subordinates at this moment, just like the public opinion in the country, are actually menacing, and it is difficult to suppress them.

"It is no longer the time when the founding of the country was founded, and it is no longer difficult for people's hearts to manipulate Ruyi, even His Majesty, who has achieved eternal achievements, cannot send and receive Ruxin......"

Chen Run sighed with emotion, after all, the hearts of the people in the country are the emperor's business, and he can only take care of his own share. In addition to reporting the situation, she also conveyed Ru Xi's wishes, and she hoped that the British Consulate General would express its support for her, so as to subdue all forces in the Manchu state.

After a sentence calmed down his subordinates a little, Chen Run said again: "Among the three major battalions in the capital, the Xishan camp has combat power, and the person in charge of the army is still Gao Qimourning, but Prince Sui's family went to the Xishan camp the day before yesterday, but they were tied up by Gao Qimourning and sent to the Qingfu Yamen. ”

"The courtiers of Prince Sui's faction have also been divided, Liu Tongxun was persuaded by Zhang Tingyu to transfer to the governor of Nanzhili, and took charge of the governor of Henan and Shandong.

"Prince Sui was defeated, and Hanchen also submitted to Ru Xi, now just wait for her to throw out some leather noodles, it is estimated that Qianlong's leather noodles will not be used anymore, Ru Xi has a lot of puppets in his hands, and the political situation of the Manchu Qing Dynasty will soon be stabilized."

This is what Qingfu just said to Chen Run, and everyone was very confused. Qingfu also sent 3,000 military camps to cover Sanlitun yesterday, that is, to prevent Prince Sui's men and horses from attacking the Consulate General, I thought that the Manchu and Qing political strife in the past few days would cause chaos in the capital, and the Consulate General was mentally prepared to be besieged, and the Fubo Army, one wing of the Consulate General, was also waiting for the day, vowing to fight to the death.

But after waiting for a long time, Ru Xi usurped the throne, imprisoned Qianlong, imprisoned Prince Sui's faction, and more than 100,000 people in the three major battalions outside the capital did not let go of half of the horses, and even Prince Sui's die-hard loyalists Gao Qimourning threw themselves to Ru Xi. Where did Ru Xi come from such power!?

Seeing that his subordinates were still puzzled, Chen Run sighed: "The salaries of the three battalions are all military tickets for silver from the Jin merchants, and the ammunition and grain are also delivered with military tickets, as long as the bank bills of the Jin merchants cancel the military tickets." The three battalions of 150,000 troops are a group of people called Hanako with burning sticks. No matter how loyal Gao Qimourning is, he can't afford to pay the money and let his subordinates serve him. ..., there was a moment of silence, and someone said, "Where did the Jin merchants get the silver?" Most of their money is lent out by our banks. ”

Another official said: "Over the years, it has been Ru Xi's people who have been bridging the North and South Bank ticket numbers, and Ru Xi is behind the Jin merchants!" ”

Someone suddenly said: "No wonder Ru Xi has such power, it turns out that she is a fox and a fake tiger, and she borrowed the power of our Great Britain!" ”

Everyone tasted it for a while. It turned out that the British had already grasped the lifeblood of the Qing Dynasty through the Jin merchants, and that Ru Xi used the power of the Jin merchants to hold a country hostage, and the Manchu Qing Dynasty had no one to resist. I really don't know if this situation is good or bad for Great Britain. At this time, the Northern Expedition is really unclear, and the situation is really messy, and there may be endless troubles in the future.

Chen Run raised his eyebrows and said, "No Northern Expedition." It doesn't mean that you don't make trouble with the Manchu Qing Dynasty, it depends on how many things the demon woman can take out to apologize after stabilizing the situation. ”

The officials of the Consulate General are all members of the Royal Road Society. All day long pondering is the act of eating people without spitting out bones, but at this time, one by one they feel that it is difficult to stretch, and they still talk about it, what else is there in the Manchu Dynasty? What I want is the homeland of China and the compatriots of Yan and Huang!

A subordinate sighed: "If he doesn't do it today, how can he make an article in the future?" ”

Some people even said unwillingly: "Although my Great Britain used the Jin Merchants to hold the lifeblood of the Manchu Dynasty, why didn't the Jin Merchants borrow my Great Britain to make profits?" Even if China is restored on another day, if forces such as Jin Shang are allowed to continue to be at large under the rule of Great Britain, what is the significance of this return of China!? Who will benefit from this Huaxia again!? ”

These feelings are all extended, Chen Run can't care about these, and the emperor talked about the north-south trend in detail in his handwritten letter. What I want is that Ru Xi can give face to Zu Daying, otherwise it will be difficult to calm the hearts of the people. His Chen Run's task is more focused on mastering the heat of squeezing Ru Xi.

After reiterating the established national policy of British restoration with his subordinates, and unifying the understanding of his subordinates, Chen Runzheng wrote a notice to the emperor, and someone came to report it in a hurry. said that there was another person in the Forbidden City, with the blood of Emperor Qianlong......

"Qianlong...... Didn't Ru Xi kill him? Are those rumors true? ”

Chen Run frowned, Qianlong has no weight in this chess game, he has only been a skin of the Manchu Qing Dynasty in the past ten years, and now Ru Xi has not broken his ruthless hand, and this skin finally wants to take his own steps?

"Yue Zhongqi is still on the front line of Tongguan, in a dilemma, if you add Qianlong......"

The subordinates subconsciously suggested that the Manchu Qing Dynasty should be as chaotic as possible.

Chen Run also thought so, but before Ru Xi started too fast, there was no hole to drill, and now Emperor Qianlong made a sound, indicating that Ru Xi had not completely grasped the Forbidden City.

"With the letter of state to the Manchu Qing rites, saying that the Sanlitun Charity Hall opened by the Consulate General was completed, and invited their emperor to cut the ribbon......"

Chen Run had a plan in a blink of an eye, and sent a signal to Ru Xi, saying that Daying was paying attention to Qianlong, which was also putting pressure on Ru Xi. Qianlong can come out, which means that Ru Xi's control is too weak, and Daying has more opportunities. If Qianlong couldn't get out, Ru Xi would have more weights to eliminate the disaster of the Manchu Qing Dynasty.

He proposed the direction, and his subordinates discussed and perfected the detailed rules, and were about to act, when they faintly heard gunshots outside.

"Did the diehards do it?"

Chen Run and his subordinates were shocked, secretly thinking that there were still Manchu people with blood and courage after all, and they thought that this kind of person would die in the civil strife ten years ago.

The main building of the Consulate General is a five-story building, and Chen Run is on the highest floor of the building. Rushing to the roadblock, the carriage in front of him stopped left and right, moved the roadblock, and did not walk anymore, but stood on both sides of the road, shooting at the pursuing Qing army in the street.

"There must be explosives in the car!"

"Let the Fubo Army open fire!" ..., the subordinates subconsciously remembered the recent assassination case of Baling, and exclaimed one after another, Chen Run raised his binoculars, looked at a carriage in the convoy, vaguely saw the bright yellow color, faintly realized, shook his head and said: "Don't do it, wait for the carriage to enter the consulate and stop the pursuing Qing army." ”

The gunshots were endless, and on the carriage, Hongli's face was blue and frightened.

Although Ru Xi held the Forbidden City guards through Chang Bao, but after all, it was not tight, Fu Qing Fu Heng found the grass on the wall in the guards guarding the Yinghua Palace, knew it with reason, moved it with affection, Hongli also went into battle in person, inspired by righteousness, and finally pried open a corner and could send a letter to the outside.

Hongli personally wrote a letter of blood, affirming the orthodoxy of the Qing Dynasty, promising some benefits, and begging Britain to set things right, this blood letter was just sent out on the front foot, and there was news on the back foot, saying that the matter had been leaked, and Ru Xi was about to change people, maybe he would have to do it on the spot.

Hongli was so frightened that his soul was not possessed, Fu Qing, Fu Heng and others resolutely made a decision and rushed out of the Forbidden City directly. With the help of the loyal guards before, they actually pulled up a group of people, mixed out of Donghua Gate, and went straight to Sanlitun.

The Consulate General is a French place, as long as he enters the Consulate General, Ru Xi will never dare to do it again.

Seeing that the carriage was only a few dozen feet away from the gate of the Consulate General, and the soldiers of the infantry battalion blocking the road were also dispersed by the guards, Hongli's heart had already risen to his throat.

The roaring hooves of the horses sounded, and the tidal wave of horses poured out of the street, and when they looked out of the window behind the carriage, it was actually the Horqin cavalry of the Fengtai battalion. Not only the Xishan camp, but even the Fengtai camp were thrown into Ruxi, and some subordinates proposed to go directly to the three major battalions to lead the troops, but fortunately they didn't listen to them, and only Daying could save himself at this time.

The horse pistol in the hands of the Horqin cavalry roared intensively, and the guards blocking the roadside suddenly dispersed, and even the guards behind Hongli's car rolled down screaming miserably, the glass window cracked, and Hongli was pressed under Fu Qing and Fu Heng, almost daring to breathe.

"Brother, the emperor will be guarded by you......"

Fu Qing said in a deep voice, and suddenly rolled out of the carriage, not only Fu Heng shouted at the window, but even Hongli forgot about the danger and got up to see Fu Qing. The commander of his own guards is a loyal and courageous Manchurian hero, and he has the righteousness of life and death, although there are kings and ministers, Hongli regards him as a brother.

"No ——!"

Seeing Fu Qing rolling on the ground a few times, and then barely standing up, a few bullets instantly penetrated his body, and a few blood flowers bloomed, Hongli and Fu Heng stretched out their arms together and exclaimed.

"For the sake of the emperor's ——!"

Fu Qing did not fall, his arms were stretched, and a puff of green smoke floated from his waist, shouting loudly in response to the rolling crowd.

Rumble......

Fu Qing didn't know that he had a few flowering bombs on his body, and they exploded together, and the flames and black smoke and shock wave not only swallowed him, but also instantly submerged the front of the pursuers, the horses neighed, and the pursuers became chaotic.

"No ......"

Hongli turned his head, his eyes were straight, and he burst into tears, and then he was carried by Fu Heng and fell out of the carriage.

I had already arrived at the Consulate General, but the tall iron gate was tightly closed, and the carriage could not stop at all, and I hit my head on the gate.

"Open the door - open the door ——!"

This collision finally returned, and Hongli followed Fu Heng to pounce under the gate and beat together.

"I am...... I am the emperor of the Qing Dynasty, the Qianlong Emperor! ”

Hongli hissed and shouted, as if he was crazy.

"Open the door - I am Emperor Qianlong, and I ask for protection from Great Britain ——!"

The sound of horses' hooves was close again, and there was no one else around except Fu Heng, Hongli shouted in surprise.

With a creak, the door finally opened, just a crack, Fu Heng dragged Hongli, the two of them used their hands and feet, squeezed into the door, and then the monarch and the ministers hugged each other, hissing and crying bitterly.

On the top floor of the main building, through the window, seeing this scene in their eyes, Chen Run and the others looked at each other speechlessly.

"Is that really Hongli? Emperor Qianlong? ”

"Like a dog......" (To be continued.) If you like this work, you are welcome to (.) to vote for recommendation, monthly pass, your support is my biggest motivation. )
