I can't die

Chapter 120 Rongshou Engagement

Cixi and Ci'an wanted to marry Rongshou to someone with low status and a low family foundation, and now Liu Xiang happened to meet him. One is outstanding and his family background is mediocre, isn't there no better candidate than this?

Sure enough, after Cixi called An Dehai to investigate, she went to ask Ci'an for instructions. Zaichun issued a decree, specially granting Liu Xiangluan the post of envoy, and allowing Princess Rongshouchang to marry the Liu family in the spring of next March.This imperial decree was a bit caught off guard, and Prince Gong's mansion had not received any news of the imperial decree before.When Prince Gong received this imperial edict, his hands couldn't help shaking.This Princess Rongshou is his direct daughter, and he seems to be the last to know about such a big matter of getting married, so he can't help but feel angry.

At that moment, he rushed into the palace to see Zai Chun, and Zai Chun said, "This kind of harem matter is presided over by the Queen Mother, so he sent him away." How could Prince Gong not see that Zai Chun was evading, But he can't, he can only earn money to go to the harem to see the queen mothers of the two palaces.Unexpectedly, Ci'an from Zhongcui Palace seemed to be chatting with him when he came back, so he closed the door and disappeared; Cixi from Chuxiu Palace saw him, but his answer was impeccable.He only said in words that this was "the grace of the heavenly family" and "how handsome Liu Xiang is", without missing a single word, which made Prince Gong even more furious.

Ghost TM heavenly grace?With the current power of Prince Gong's Mansion, who in the Manchu Dynasty, civil and military, would not be able to marry?It is a great shame to actually marry a descendant of the lower five banners (Liu Xiang was lifted up) who was born in Shangjia.

"Why bother, Ama?" Rongshou could see Prince Gong's thoughts, and immediately put a cup of tea beside him. Now that Rongshou is going to get married next year, he even took off the errands at the sticky pole and was sent back. Went to Prince Gong's mansion, said to be married.

"The imperial decree has been issued, and the whole thing is done. Can the emperor take back the order?"

Prince Gong Yi took the teacup from Rongshou's hand, didn't drink it, and put it aside: "Ama just complained for you, Cixi mother and son are really bullying!"

Seeing that Prince Gong was angry, Rong Shou sighed in her heart, she knew that her father was already a little unscrupulous: "Ama need not get angry, Liu Sange's daughter is also known, but she is very charming. Besides, we Prince Gong's mansion is already extremely wealthy, so there is nothing wrong with finding someone who knows everything."

When Prince Gong heard that his daughter didn't complain, he seemed to be happy and willing. He suppressed his temper a lot, and then took a sip of tea: "The Liu family is just a low-level family, not even a noble family. How can we make it?"

"It's as bad as my father said. After all, he is Xia Dutong's disciple. Besides, he is the largest rich family in Jiangsu and Zhejiang. Ama is not worried about her daughter, in fact..." Rong Shou hesitated to speak. : "It's better to think about why the empress dowager is like this."

Rong Shou was originally at the sticky pole, the most well-informed, and often in front of Cixi Ci'an, no one is more proficient than her in deducing the holy will.

"You mean?" Prince Gong thought of this, and his heart tightened: "Could it be that they want to kill the donkey?!" At this point, Prince Gong shook his head again: "It's not like that, now foreigners have to fight for their father , the Military Aircraft Department can't do without me, presumably it's about cutting power?"

Rong Shou felt deeply about her father's political sensitivity, but in her heart it was just a guess. Without solid evidence, she couldn't say it with reason: "Before the Empress Dowager, I always heard An Dehai say that What. Ama and An Dehai have enmity."

At the beginning, it was Ci'an and all the ministers of the Military Aircraft Department who broke out An Dehai together. Cixi couldn't help Ci'an, and wanted to kill the prestige of the Military Aircraft Department. The first person to bear the brunt was Prince Gong Yi.Prince Gong didn't know how much he had offended An Dehai. If An Dehai often fanned the wind in Cixi's ear and lit ghost fires, Cixi would inevitably have resentment towards Prince Gong's residence.

"Cixi's power has been greatly reduced now. Although the two palaces are now curtained, our emperor is not one who listens to women. There should be no troubles." Prince Gong felt that he was not afraid of the shadow slanting, as long as If Zai Chun, who holds the military power in his hand, doesn't attack him, Prince Gong's residence should not be hurt.

"Cixi is a boudoir woman, if you think about it, you can only vent your anger on you. It's really hard for you...my son..." Prince Gong consciously thought through a lot, and felt even more distressed about Rongshou.After hearing Prince Gong's analysis, Rong Shou sighed in his heart, knowing that his father still underestimated the Empress Dowager Xigong.

"Ama still has to be careful, you must know, climbing high and falling hard."

At that moment, Prince Gong only thought that Rongshou was his daughter's family, and he was easy to worry, so he didn't think much about it, so he nodded in agreement, and didn't take it to heart.

But I never thought that Rong Shou really deserved to be a person who grew up in front of Cixi, and he knew Cixi's temperament very well.Not long after Rongshou removed the will of the Liu family, Cixi finally revealed his ultimate move.

On the fifth day of December in the second year of Tongzhi, the editor Cai Shouqi impeached Yixin under the instruction of Cixi, and went to the court, saying that he took power and accepted bribes, favored selfishness and arrogance, and favored foreigners. Buying a warship, but not buying anything in the end.What the memorial said was well-founded and well-founded, and if Zai Chun hadn't known the real story of this incident at the beginning, I'm afraid he would have felt that Prince Gong was abusing his personal power for the benefit of foreigners.

In the Qianqing Palace where the earth dragon was burning in the winter, all the military ministers felt cold all over their bodies, as if the northwest wind in the twelfth lunar month of winter was always exuding a deep pain.

"What does the emperor think?"

Sitting high behind the curtain, Cixi asked Zai Chun.Zai Chun knew what Prince Gong had to do, but it was just a matter of reason and reason, and it was really Prince Gong's fault.

"I thought that we still need to investigate at this time. The emperor's uncle has worked so hard, I'm afraid there may be something hidden." Back then, the court suffered from such a big restraint, so it couldn't be said in the open, otherwise the Qing Dynasty would lose its face.

The ministers heard Zai Chun's words, it seemed that they wanted to protect Prince Gong, and all the disciples under the Minister of Military Aircraft stepped forward to intercede one by one.Cixi saw that nearly half of the officials in the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty were like this, and she was even more afraid of the huge power of Prince Gong, and she refused to let it go: "Since the emperor feels that there is something inside, why don't Xiange go to Prince Gong to discuss the affairs of the king?" As for the post, let the emperor personally send someone to investigate?"

Cixi's words were cold and cold, as if she was saying, look, Your Majesty, there are so many people in the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty who belong to Prince Gong, are you at ease?

When Zaichun heard the words, he also hesitated.

"What does the Empress Dowager think?"

Ci'an heard Zai Chun's words, but didn't know what to do. "This matter still needs to be decided by the emperor himself."

Ci'an also hesitated, obviously, she wanted to protect Prince Gong, but seeing his power in the court, she had no choice but to swallow her words.

Zai Chun didn't know the worries of the Empress Dowagers of the Two Palaces: "So, let's send Jiao Youying to investigate first. He is my teacher, and I can trust him."
