Chapter 61 Section 61

In the early morning of May 29th, Zaiyi invited Zhuang Wang Zaixun, Xiao Gong Wang Puwei's uncle Belle Zaiying, and his brother and brother to lead a group of more than 60 names and head straight for Ningshou Palace.To build up his courage, Zai Yi drank a few glasses of wine, his face turned red, and he opened his mouth, reeking of alcohol. Wen Nian, the minister of the Ministry of Internal Affairs who was on duty at the Ningshou Palace that day, saw that Zaiyi had come with bad intentions, and was afraid of suffering immediate losses, so he didn't dare to stop him, and let him walk crookedly towards the Le Shoutang, the bedroom of the Empress Dowager Cixi.Hearing the noise, Li Lianying was horrified, and ran out to see, the more panicked she felt, "My lord, my lord!" He quickly went up to her and asked, "What are you doing here?"

"What are you doing? Come catch the bastard!" "My lord, lightly, lightly! Lafayette is having tea." "I'm going to see Lafayette!" Zaiyi said with an expression of becoming more and more drunk, "Please, Lafayette, hand over my second son." "Who is Ermaozi?" "Who else, isn't it the emperor?" As soon as the words were finished, the Boxers shouted: "Hand over Ermaozi!" Seeing this scene, Li Lianying knew that she couldn't stop it with her own strength.However, he knew very well that Zaiyi was stern and soft-hearted. Sure enough, he would never drink if he had the guts to ask the Empress Dowager Cixi for a "two-haired son".Besides, other than him, the rest of the people not only kept silent, but their faces were all pale and uncertain, which showed that the prestige of the Empress Dowager Cixi was enough to keep her intimidated!

The calculation has been made, and the tone is calm, "Okay! Please wait for the prince." He said: "I'm going to invite Lafayette to drive me." After finishing speaking, he turned and left. Walking back to the Suian room in Dongnuan Pavilion of Le Shoutang, the Empress Dowager Cixi was already waiting for the report with an angry face.Seeing this scene, Li Lianying couldn't help but hesitate.In the past two days, the Empress Dowager Cixi was very angry because the Gan army set fire to the Imperial Academy, but the British embassy had not yet been taken.Now if he finds out that Zai Yi is so rebellious and mischievous, what kind of drastic action will he take in his rage?I can't help but worry first.

But at this time and here, he is not allowed to think too much, he can only bite the bullet and say: "Go back with Lafayette, King Duan wants to see the emperor." "What does he want to see the emperor for?" "I don't dare to ask." Li Lianying lowered her voice and said, "According to my servant, it's good for the emperor not to see him." Hearing this, Empress Dowager Cixi raised her eyebrows, "What's the matter?" She sneered slightly: "Could it be that he still dares to do something that is not tolerated by heaven and Buddha?"

"That's not going to happen. But . . . " "Stop talking!" The Empress Dowager Cixi interrupted impatiently: "Quickly pass on my words and let Rong Lu bring more people here." In fact, there is no need for Li Lianying to pass on the decree, Rong Lu has already received the news that the palace has already sent additional military guards to protect it. At this time, it is only necessary to concentrate the troops and strengthen the vigilance. In the big courtyard, the demonstrators were glaring, with their chests raised and their stomachs raised, and when they were triumphant, they saw eunuchs leading the way, surrounded by court ladies, and the Empress Dowager Cixi came out.

"Lafayette..." As soon as he yelled, he yelled sharply: "Shut up!" Empress Dowager Cixi's eyes widened, "What are you doing? You want to rebel! Zaiyi, tell me, what are you going to do?" When Zaiyi saw the Empress Dowager Cixi, she was a generation shorter. At this time, she heard the truth harshly, and she couldn't say a word out of timidity, but a big brother who didn't know the heights of the sky and the earth said loudly: "I want to depose the emperor!" !" "Is it something you can intervene in deposing the emperor?" The Empress Dowager Cixi spoke very quickly: "Who should be the emperor is up to me. Don't think that you should let him be the emperor if you establish a big brother. Brother's name was withdrawn, and he was kicked out of the palace. It's a one-sentence matter. It's easy to do what you say. At what time is it now, you don't care about your conscience and work hard, and you dare to be so unscrupulous? It's really absurd. ! Jae Hoon!"

"Cha!" Zai Xun agreed loudly. "Hurry up and take them away! In the future, they are not allowed to come in except for the value!" The Empress Dowager Cixi said again: "You offended the emperor, and you have to kowtow to the emperor to make amends. Do you know that you are wrong?" "Yes!" Zai Xun kowtowed profusely, "The slave is wrong!" "If you know you're wrong, I'll show you kindness and give them a light sentence. Each person will be fined for one year." At this point, Rong Lu's shadow flashed, and the Empress Dowager Cixi knew that the deployment had been made, so she said loudly: "As for the Tuanmin, if you dare to insist With guns and knives, breaking into the palace, committing chaos, you can't be forgiven lightly, all the leaders will be executed!"

As soon as these words came out, some people changed color, some trembled, and some were in a daze, but no one dared to speak or take any action.And Rong Lu also took advantage of the moment when the Empress Dowager Cixi was powerful enough to deter the rebellious officials and thieves, and commanded his subordinates to disarm the Boxers. Seeing that the Boxer Regiment was the Chinese Army of the Wuwei Army, two or three of them controlled one and dragged them out of the palace gate, Zaiyi's face was ashes, and he stood in the middle of the courtyard unable to move.It was King Zhuang who was more vigilant, and made a gesture to signal everyone to kneel together and retreat.

However, Zaiyi stayed on according to the order, and the Empress Dowager Cixi changed her expression at this time, with a look of contempt and disdain, "Please understand, get rid of your bastard thoughts of wanting to be the emperor as soon as possible." Let me tell you, as long as I am alive, there is nothing you can do. No matter how restless you are, don’t blame me. Get rid of your prince and drive you to Heilongjiang! Behavior like yours really deserves your dog name!" Zaiyi's Yi has the word "dog" in it, so Empress Dowager Cixi scolded him harshly at this moment.But Zaiyi was scolded and had to kowtow to thank her.He left the palace, covered his sedan chair, and felt so sad that he wished he could go to Dongjiaomin Lane immediately to fight with foreigners.
