Chapter 61 Chapter 15

The change of the Gengzi state and Cixi's flight to the west once again amazed people at the old lady's extraordinary scheming. First of all, the old lady fled in the right direction. Hundreds of thousands of Boxers captured more than a dozen Holy Mothers including the Holy Mother of Huang Lian, as well as many senior brothers of the Boxers, and sold them to foreigners, earning a lot of money.If they caught the Empress Dowager Cixi, they would definitely sell it at a high price. But Cixi has the ability to make you unable to catch her. The old lady was running wildly, twisting her little feet, and the foreign devils from the Eight Kingdoms were chasing after her desperately, but they couldn't catch up with her.

His life was saved, but food and daily life became a big problem. The old lady fled to Shaanxi in one breath, only gruel to drink, and she was not full. When depressed, Rong Lu came to report: Queen Mother, we have received a remittance. Remittance... Empress Dowager Cixi was a little dizzy: where is this going, and remittance...how much? Rong Lu: Three hundred thousand taels of silver! The old lady jumped up with a thud: Who is it that misses our mother and daughter so much... Rong Lu: Besides the Seven Gentlemen, who else? The old lady rolled her eyes a lot: it turned out to be Yuan Shikai.

Why did Yuan Shikai get the nickname Seven Gentlemen? This is because, after the Hundred Days Restoration, Kang Youwei failed to slaughter the Empress Dowager Cixi, and all the military planes were dragged down from Tan Sitong to Caishikou for beheading. Among the beheaded heads was Yuan Shikai's toad head, but Rong Lu But he stopped at the door and said: Yuan Shikai is mine! So Yuan Shikai's head was not chopped off. Because Rong Lu protected Yuan Shikai, the Empress Dowager Cixi was very unhappy at the time. Now that Yuan Shikai knows how to repay Yuan Shikai, Rong Lu must make it clear to the old lady.

So, where did Yuan Shikai get this money? This is how it happened. After learning of the whereabouts of the Empress Dowager Cixi, Yuan Shikai immediately held a meeting of leading cadres at all levels in Shandong, such as Fan, Gui, Si, and Dao. ...We want to develop the Great Northwest, but the environment in the Northwest is relatively difficult...In short, there is a lack of food and clothing, and we are restless day and night. We leading cadres must take the lead. Everyone will contribute some money to help the court tide over the difficulties. ? All the leaders burst into tears: Queen Mother, you have suffered.

Yuan Shikai said: I know all of you have money, besides this is a special donation... All the leaders burst into tears: Your Majesty, you have suffered. Yuan Shikai: Is it possible that everyone is really so poor that they can't afford even a tael of silver? Leaders: Really, our family is impoverished, and the house is completely destitute. You can search, Mr. Yuan. If you can find a tael of silver, I was raised by you. Yuan Shikai was moved: What a good cadre... Everyone is crying like this. Now that the meeting is resting, everyone eats some fruit and snacks. Fortunately, our Shandong has not been harmed by the Boxers, and there is still no shortage of food and drink...

Leaders at all levels went to eat fruit. Here, Yuan Shikai entered the small conference room, and someone greeted him early: Mr. Yuan, I found out that leaders at all levels have deposits of more than one million taels in the bank of the bank... Yuan Shikai took it. Come over and say: OK, inform the leaders to continue the meeting. The leaders walked into the conference room again, chewing the fruit. Yuan Shikai piled the money taken out of the ticket number on the table, and angrily condemned: All of you are good cadres with a clean sleeve, but the shopkeepers of these ticket numbers are too I'm so angry, they actually pretended to be your name to make deposits in the bank, ruining the reputation and prestige of the leaders. In order to punish these people with ulterior motives, I am now remitting all the money to the empress dowager. Do you have any disagreements?

All the leaders burst into tears: Old Yuan, you who killed a thousand dollars...you don't spit out your bones after eating the leaders...
