XXXVII. The End of Heroes (5)
The Queen Mother was a little displeased when she saw that the emperor was late, "Where have you been for so long?" ”
The emperor was originally a little worried, but when he heard the queen mother's question, he felt a little scared, stood in front of the throne and replied with his hand down: "Erchen went to Xiyuan just now and saw that foreigner. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info”
"Oh, how?" The Queen Mother was not angry, but said lightly, "How about that foreigner?" ”
"Erchen thinks he speaks very funny," the little emperor smiled, and then held back his laughter, "Erchen will never dare to move around in the future." ”
"It's okay, Hengzhi is in the palace, and if you see Hurd, you will see him, and in a few days he will enter the court as an official, in charge of the customs and taxation of our Qing Dynasty, if you are interested, it doesn't hurt to let him enter the palace to talk more, but," the Queen Mother bared her teeth and sighed, "It's just to prevent your master from breaking his mouth." ”
Emperor Tongzhi also had a headache at the broken thoughts of Wuren, and when he heard the Queen Mother talk about it, he nodded again and again, "Erchen can't help it, it's just that he is a master, and Erchen has to listen." ”
"Well, you sit down first, Emperor," the Empress Dowager Cixi motioned for Yang Qingxi to go out and call out, "This is the matter of the Taiping Army Wing King, what do you mean?" ”
"Shi Dakai made a mess in China, harmed the emperor Amabingtian, it's not a pity to kill him with a thousand knives," Emperor Tongzhi replied categorically, and then he was a little puzzled, "But I heard that this Shi Dakai is a hero, he is a first-class character among the long-haired thieves, and it's a pity to kill him, and if you don't kill him, I'm afraid that he will make trouble," Emperor Tongzhi scratched his head in distress, "My son doesn't know what to do." ”
"If you can think of this, it's very good, this is killing or fusing, it's not necessarily," the Queen Mother nodded in approval, "Sit down first, look at the military plane outside, and what do you mean by your sixth uncle." ”

"I, the Admiral of Sichuan, Rong Lu is also!"
Shi Da opened it, but his pupils contracted suddenly, and Huang Zaizhong was furious when he heard this, and he pulled out his waist knife and was about to cut Rong Lu who was kneeling on the ground, "You dog thief, in a battle in Nanchong, you used intrigues and tricks to kill many of my brothers!" ”
"Zai Zhong!" Shi Dakai shouted, stopped Huang Zaizhong's knife, looked deeply at Rong Lu, who was smiling and silent, and spoke without hurrying or slowing, "Lord Admiral, although the two countries are at war and do not kill the envoys, but Lord Admiral, you are really the biggest sufferer since my Taiping Army entered Sichuan," Rong Lu used the musket team to cooperate with the Sichuan horse in Nanchong to force more than 10,000 Taiping troops to surrender or be separated at once, "If you don't make clear the intention of this one, Shi Mou will have to make an exception and not be a false name of benevolence, righteousness and morality!" ”
Rong Lu smiled slightly, his expression had long left life and death behind, "I brought some gold sore medicine outside, presumably there is a shortage in the Wing King's army, if the Wing King is worried, it doesn't hurt if you don't use it, just throw it away." Huang Zaizhong showed a happy expression on his face, and hurriedly called someone to get gold sore medicine to treat the wounded, Shi Dakai continued to look at Rong Lu with an unmoving expression, "Help the Admiral up." ”
"Thank you Wing King," although Rong Lu was between the swords and swords of the Taiping Army, he was not afraid at all, and his eyes looked directly at Shi Dakai, "I am here to persuade the Wing King to surrender!" ”
。。。
"Shi Dakai has been trapped by the Dadu River, what should I do next, what do you mean?" The Queen Mother sent Luo Bingzhang's military report, and waited until the military planes had seen it, and then asked slowly.
Prince Gong didn't speak, and Wen Xiang had to take the lead in speaking, "The slave thinks that it should be exterminated." ”
"Oh? Why is that? The Queen Mother was noncommittal and asked.
"Rebellion disturbs China, the blood of the land south of the Yangtze River flows into a river, and the foreigners are raging, causing the first emperor to regret the dragon and control the guests," Wen Xiang said eloquently, "Not to mention others, there are no less than 1,000 officials from all over the country who died at the hands of Shi Dakai, more than 50 people from the prefect and Taotai, and more than 10 people from the governor, it is really appalling, the Jiangnan tax has been used to quell the chaos, resulting in the emptiness of the treasury, and the taxes of the two Guangxi are also levied on the spot, and now even the money in Sichuan cannot be collected, this is the crime of Shi Dakai and others, it is really not suitable to appease, and Shi Dakai will correct the law, One can deter the southwest Tusi, the second can comfort the loyal souls of soldiers and officials, and the third can establish authority. If it is appeased, the wolf's ambition will not die in the future, and he will rebel again, such as learning the story of Li Zicheng, and rebelling again, so that there will be no peace in the country! ”
Emperor Tongzhi had a smile on the corner of his mouth, turned his head to look at Cixi behind the curtain, Cixi nodded, motioned to Emperor Tongzhi to sit down, and Baojun also answered, "Yes, the slave also seconded the proposal, and the slave asked for an order to punish the puppet king, Li Xiucheng, and Chen Yucheng who had been captured before to be executed as an example!" ”
"Zeng Guoquan had already complained before, saying that Li Hongzhang had never conquered Jinling, so he occupied the thief chieftain and was angry for Pingjiangnan, and the ministers thought that it was better to correct the law."
There was silence behind the bead curtain, Wen Xiang couldn't, raised his head and glanced at Prince Gong, and motioned for Prince Gong to speak, Prince Gong owes himself, "I don't dare to ask the Queen Mother's will." ”
"The meaning of this palace is to be appeased!" (To be continued.) )
