Emperor Guangxu said: "What I promised you will definitely be done." Then he turned to a little eunuch and said, "Go and invite Guan'er." ”

Lin Yuan's heart trembled when he heard this, and he thought, "Is it 'please' to come, not 'brought', it seems that Wan'er is really already their person!" "When the door of the house opened, a beautiful girl walked in from outside, it was Guan'er, her appearance did not change at all, but her face was a little haggard.

When Guan'er saw Lin Yuan, she walked a few steps to Lin Yuan, stretched out her hand to hold Lin Yuan's arm, and asked with concern, "Brother, are you not injured?" ”

Lin Yuan looked at Wan'er's haggard expression, and thought to himself: "It seems that she doesn't feel good if she betrays me, maybe there is something hidden in this matter." So Lin Yuan shook his head and smiled: "It's okay, I'm fine, what about you?" ”

Wan'er heard Lin Yuan's words full of concern, and tears fell in an instant, Lin Yuan stretched out his hand, gently wiped away Wan'er's tears, and laughed softly: "What are you crying about?" ”

Wan'er was asked by Lin Yuan and immediately cried loudly, crying and saying: "Brother, I'm sorry, I'm sorry ......" After saying two sentences, Lin Yuan couldn't continue, Lin Yuan saw her crying, and the past came to his mind one by one, thinking: "The first time she cried seemed to be the time I brought the gun home, she played with my gun, and was hit in the calf by my gun......"

Thinking of this, Lin Yuan stretched out his hand and gently hugged Guan'er in his arms, Guan'er didn't speak, just cried in Lin Yuan's arms, and at this moment he only heard the majestic voice of an old woman outside: "What a pair of lovely mandarin ducks!" ”

Before the words fell, I saw that the door of the house opened, and the Empress Dowager Cixi walked into the house like the stars holding the moon, Emperor Guangxu and a group of palace maids and eunuchs hurriedly knelt on the ground, and when Guan'er saw the Empress Dowager Cixi come in, she hurriedly broke free of Lin Yuan's embrace, ran to the Empress Dowager Cixi, and knelt down respectfully on the ground, only Lin Yuan was still standing in the house.

The Empress Dowager Cixi raised her hand lightly and said slowly: "You all get up." ”

Emperor Guangxu said: "The son of the queen of Xie Mother Longen! After saying that, he led everyone to stand up, and the Empress Dowager Cixi raised her hand at Guan'er, who hurriedly walked to the Empress Dowager Cixi, stretched out her hand to hold her arm, and the Empress Dowager Cixi put her hand on Guan'er's arm and slowly walked to Lin Yuan.

The Empress Dowager Cixi looked at Lin Yuan and smiled, and said: "Lin Yuan, the mourning family has long seen that you have a disobedient heart, but I didn't expect you to get my Guan'er over, fortunately, Guan'er has a conscience after the most reckoning, and knows who is the one who is good to her!" ”

Lin Yuan thought to himself: "Guan'er told me a long time ago that she didn't want to serve Cixi in the palace, and I also said that she would go to the Northeast, if it wasn't for Wanqing training her to be a spy, she would really go to the Northeast!" How could she possibly think that the Empress Dowager Cixi was better to her? Could it really be like Zhang Hua said, does she hate me because of love? ”

Seeing that Lin Yuan didn't speak, the Empress Dowager Cixi said leisurely: "Lin Yuan, you may wonder if you think you are better for Guan'er, don't you?" ”

Lin Yuan didn't expect the Empress Dowager Cixi to suddenly say what was on her mind, and her expression was revealed, and the Empress Dowager Cixi said: "Then I'll tell you why Guan'er thinks you are not good to her, Guan'er has been by your side for three years, and you have never touched her, haven't you?" ”

Lin Yuan nodded silently and said, "I'm sorry for Guan'er." ”

Empress Dowager Cixi smiled: "It stands to reason that it's okay if you don't touch her, maybe you don't think she's good-looking enough, and she can't resent anything, but you don't touch her because of another woman, that woman's name is Shen Wanqing, right?" Alas, Guan'er follows you wholeheartedly, but you should be ignored by another woman, do you say that you are good to Guan'er? ”

Lin Yuan sighed gloomily, and the Empress Dowager Cixi continued: "Shen Wanqing? I don't seem to have seen her, what does she look like? It must be pretty, but none of this matters, I've had people arrest her secretly, no, not her, but kill her. ”

Cixi saw that Lin Yuan hadn't spoken yet, so she smiled and said, "You may not want to talk to me, I originally wanted to talk to you about something, since you don't want to talk to me, then I'll let Guan'er talk to you." After speaking, he raised his hand from Guan'er's arm and said to Xiao Dezhang beside him: "The palace is tired, it's time to sit down and rest." ”

Xiao Dezhang hurriedly stepped forward to help the Empress Dowager Cixi, Cixi turned around and walked to the seat of Emperor Guangxu, Emperor Guangxu hurriedly stood up and stepped forward to help Cixi, Xiao Dezhang let go of his hand knowingly, turned to a small eunuch behind, the little eunuch held a thick white tiger skin, Xiao Dezhang took the white tiger skin over, put it on the seat of Emperor Guangxu, and Emperor Guangxu helped Cixi to sit down.

Wan'er lowered her head and walked to Lin Yuan's side, and whispered, "Brother, Lafayette said ......"

At this moment, I only heard Xiao Dezhang say in a loud voice: "Be louder, Lafayette can't hear clearly." ”

Guan'er raised her voice and said, "Brother, Lafayette's grace, when you hand over the power of Northeast China and Mongolia, I will let you be an official in the capital, and Guan'er will be willing to serve you for the rest of your life." ”

Lin Yuan smiled: "I will hand over all the power." ”

Wan'er looked happy and said: "Brother, that's great, I'll always follow you, be your little girl, you can find as many girls as you want, just ask you to think about me in your heart, if you feel tired of them, come to see me......"

Lin Yuan thought ashamedly in his heart: "Guan'er is so infatuated with me, but I can't give her anything, if I don't want to build a new China, maybe I can make her a concubine, but in the future, China will inevitably be monogamous, how can I be special alone?" ”

At this moment, I only heard the Empress Dowager Cixi laugh twice, and said loudly: "Guan'er, how can you be a little girl?" When Guan'er heard Cixi's words, she hurriedly turned around and knelt down, and said, "Guan'er is just a slave, and she doesn't dare to think about it." ”

The Empress Dowager Cixi turned her head to Emperor Guangxu and said: "Your Majesty, I will treat Guan'er as my daughter, and she will be your sister in the future, so you can make her a qualification." ”

Emperor Guangxu hurriedly said: "I'll let the Internal Affairs Office do it." ”

The Empress Dowager Cixi smiled: "Okay, this matter is here, Xiao Dezhang, what is the name of the finale of the Yongde Building's troupe?" Which one did you sing today? ”

Xiao Dezhang hurriedly smiled and said: "It's called Zhou Lanzhen, Lafayette ordered Shiro to visit his mother yesterday." ”

The Empress Dowager Cixi said with a smile: "Don't sing Shiro to visit your mother on this festive day today, find a happy one, I can't think of it now, think about it again when I arrive, let's go, don't miss the show!" ”

The Empress Dowager Cixi then got up and left, and Wan'er said to Lin Yuan at this time: "Three days later, the emperor and the Empress Dowager Cixi will try you in the lobby of the Criminal Department, and many people will come to see you, and then you will admit the crime of rebellion, and the emperor will say that you have a lot of credit, so you will be exempted from the capital crime and transferred to the director of the Tongwen Museum in the capital, and after a while, they will marry us." ”

After Wan'er finished speaking, she left, and Lin Yuan thought helplessly: "How can Guan'er believe these words? These words are clearly! How can you allow others to snore on the side of the couch, I have so many subordinates, how can the people of the Qing court let me go? What awaits me after I hand over power is a butcher's knife! ”

Lin Yuan was thinking about it, and Emperor Guangxu said to the people: "Take Lin Yuan back, imprison him, don't embarrass him." ”
