I can't die

Concubine Li died. On the night Zai Chun went to Shoukang Palace, she died before Rongshou made a move.According to the report from the palace servants, Concubine Li opened the window that night, smelled the incense, and fell asleep peacefully, never waking up again.Later, the people from Blood Droplet reported back after investigation, and found out that there were a lot of poppies in the incense. Concubine Li was as weak as a child, so naturally she couldn't bear it and died.

"Your Majesty, Concubine Li has passed away."

When Li Lianying came to report the funeral, Zai Chun was studying in the upper study, and it was Weng Tonghe's turn to be on duty today.At that moment, everyone in the upper study room became quiet after hearing what Li Lianying said.Hearing this, Rong Shou's eyes flashed brightly, and he looked at Zai Chun, who remained expressionless, waved his hand, and looked indifferent, no longer the bewildered look he had when Zhiqing died: "Tell the Ministry of Internal Affairs to The imperial concubine's rituals are good and she can be buried."

"Your majesty, this servant has the guts to ask, who is in charge of the palace affairs in Shoukang Palace now?"

In the Shoukang Palace, there are all the former emperor's old concubines and Zai Chun's elders, so there must be someone in charge.

Li Lianying glanced at Zai Chun, wanting to see something on Zai Chun's face, but Zai Chun remained calm: "Go tell your mother, the empress dowager, about this kind of thing. The empress dowager is the aunt, and she does it in the harem." Lord."

According to things like this in the past, the Ministry of Internal Affairs would habitually ask the Empress Dowager Cixi for instructions, but now Zaichun deliberately changed it to the Empress Dowager, so that people don't know how to guess what they want.However, in any case, Ci'an is indeed superior to Cixi in terms of etiquette.

Concubine Li's death fell into the eyes of those who thought it was Zai Chun who forced her to death.Prince Gong saw that Zai Chun took care of Concubine Li for him, and he was very grateful to Zai Chun in his heart. Cixi knew that her own son did it, but of course it was hard to understand, but the next day she claimed to be sick. Everyone We all know that Ci Xi is showing Zai Chun's face.

The death of Concubine Li hardly caused any ripples in the court and the harem, and it was not even comparable to the "unification of the capital's infantry".

When Ci Xi called her sick, Zai Chun knew that she was expressing dissatisfaction with her, but Zai Chun seemed to have cooled down now, and she was no longer the same Zai Chun as before.

At least, Concubine Li chooses to commit suicide, it is better than the blood drop that fell under Rongshou's hands. . .

Zai Chun sighed silently, and then threw himself into the tedious government affairs.Dong Yuanchun's self-defense letter came up soon, and Zai Chun threw it to the Military Aircraft Department without even reading it.Prince Gong Yi sneered after reading this self-defense memorial.Obviously, the lord censor's betrayal of the master has greatly offended the ruler of Yizheng.At that moment, Prince Gong scribbled these words on Dong Yuanchun's self-defense: "Slandering the charms, not doing one's own job, peeping at the traces of the emperor, not being a minister."

"Slanderous rumors, not doing one's job well" is already a big crime, and the last two are even more punishing. If it is bigger, it is not an exaggeration to exterminate the family.Seeing the reply from the Military Aircraft Department, Zai Chun gave a sneer smile, then stamped the "Tongdaotang" seal on the memorial, and wrote this line of words in cinnabar:

"Dong Yuanchun was demoted to Gansu Prefecture, and Jiao Youying was transferred to be the censor of Qiandu in place of Dong Yuanchun."

The Metropolitan Procuratorate is the highest law and discipline supervision agency in the Qing Dynasty. It not only reviews death penalty cases, but also participates in autumn trials and hot trials, and also supervises officials. Such an important place needs to have its own staff. It just so happened that Dong Yuanchun bumped into it. .Zai Chun directly gave him the word "death".

Isn't it?There are a lot of Hui people in places like Gansu, and they often have rapes. If you go there to be an official, you will never even think about returning to Beijing for the rest of your life.

Empress Dowager Ci'an had already seen Prince Gong's murderous intentions in the court hall these few days, so she was naturally happy to watch this good show, and happily stamped "Imperial Reward" on this memorial.Since then, the dust has settled, this Dong Yuanchun will never turn over for the rest of his life, and Zai Chun has finally given Jiao Youying the real power.

This action dealt a great blow to Cixi, especially to her subordinate Prince Jin.After knowing Dong Yuanchun's fate, Prince Jin was quite worried that he would offend the emperor, so he hurriedly asked his grand fortune, Jin Wanzhen, to go to the palace to talk to Cixi. It made everyone in Prince Chun's mansion panic.

Not to mention internal turmoil.The line of sight returned to the front line again.

Now, because of the military decision to start the war in January, the Hunan Army caught the Taiping Army by surprise, and fought like a broken bamboo all the way, all the way to the Yangtze River Estuary on the opposite bank of Nanjing.

The Yangtze River is Nanjing's most natural defensive barrier. Not only is the river extremely wide and the current is turbulent, but also because the British and French warships were stuck at the mouth of Shanghai, the Taiping Army was relieved for a while.

In February of the first year of Tongzhi, the Hunan Army and the Taiping Army fought a three-day and three-night battle on the Yangtze River.But anyone with a discerning eye knows that the Taiping Army has completely fallen into the lower peak.

This is because the main force of Zeng Guofan's Hunan Army has reached the mouth of the Yangtze River, and the north of Nanjing along Shanghai has been blocked by the Qing soldiers and foreigners led by Li Hongzhang. To be surrounded is undoubtedly to be caught in the urn.

At this time, Hong Xiuquan had to panic even if he didn't panic. He listened to reports from people coming down every day, for fear that one day the Hunan army would attack the Yangtze River and enter Tianjing. Therefore, under this situation, he issued an order The incomparable failure also laid the foundation for the Taiping Army's decision to be completely finished.

Li Xiucheng, the general of the Taiping Army stationed in Shanghai, the loyal king, returned to Tianjing to guard the capital.

When this move reached Li Xiucheng's hands, everyone in the world could imagine how this loyal king felt in his heart. He fought hard to conquer a large area of ​​the south of the Yangtze River. Seeing that Shanghai, the last important city on the coast, was just around the corner, he suddenly had to give up all the achievements. Rescuing Tianjing is tantamount to handing over this great situation to others.

However, after all, the military order is like a mountain, and Li Xiucheng can only go back to rescue no matter how unwilling he is in his heart.Not long after he left, Li Hongzhang immediately led his troops to attack Jiangsu with foreign guns, artillery, and warships, and captured Suzhou, the second largest city in Jiangsu, within a month.

After Li Hongzhang captured Suzhou, it was tantamount to tearing a large gap in the Taiping Army's Jiangsu military map. After that, Li Hongzhang immediately sent a secret message to Zuo Zongtang.When Zuo Zongtang learned that Li Hongzhang had repelled the main force in the north, he immediately decided to join Li Hongzhang's troops to attack the Taiping Army in Zhejiang from north to south. At the same time, he ordered Zeng Guofan to hold Hong Xiuquan and Li Xiucheng along the Tianjing route.Within half a month, under the leadership of Li Hongzhang and Zuo Zongtang, the Hunan Army first broke through Shaoxing, then Hangzhou, and finally took control of the entire province of Zhejiang.

So far, the situation of the three armies besieging Tianjing City has become a foregone conclusion.
