Eunuchs who traveled through the Qing Dynasty

After repeated confirmation, he finally believed that there was nothing wrong with his ears.On the same day he arrived in Beijing, Zeng Guofan also sneaked into the capital secretly!

Lin Qing'er followed him all the way, and found that he didn't go anywhere after entering the city, and went straight to an inn on Luomashi Street outside Chongwenmen, and never showed his face again.Lin Qing'er wanted to sneak in several times, but the accompanying guards were very vigilant, and there was no chance at all.Early the next morning, it was discovered that this man had shaved his head and was about to leave. Fearing that he would not find another chance to attack, he took a risk and was besieged by three guards and almost died.

Hearing this just now, Xiao Ran was confused for a while.According to the usual practice, all dynasties have such a rule: without the emperor's order, if a military general stationed abroad enters the capital privately, it is a felony of treason, and he must be sentenced to death by beheading and ransacking his family.Especially in such a sensitive period when one hair can affect the whole body, Zeng Guofan risked his beheading and rushed all the way back to the capital. What ulterior purpose did Zeng Guofan have?

Since Xianfeng went north hunting, Su obeyed and rebelled, Beijing has actually become the world of King Gong.Especially after the case of Tianzihao Bank, Sushun's party members left in Beijing were seriously injured, and Prince Gong's power basically overwhelmed the sky with one hand.How could Zeng Guofan escape Prince Gong's eyes and ears when he came to the capital at this time?

Transfer to Chengde?Absolutely not, from a geographical point of view, he can completely bypass Beijing; connect with Sushun's henchmen?It seems that there is no need to go to the city to take such a risk...

Then there is only one conclusion left: there must be some kind of tacit understanding between Zeng Guofan and Prince Gong!

Xiao Ran at this time.He vaguely figured out one of the biggest doubts left over from this period of history.

After the Xinyou coup and the death of Emperor Xianfeng, at the Chengde Palace, Sushun had clearly controlled the empress dowagers and the little emperor of the two palaces, and the eight ministers of Gu Ming who were handpicked by Xianfeng to assist in all government affairs were all in control. Is his own henchmen.It stands to reason that there is no need to immediately return to Beijing from Fengzi Palace, and happily coerce the emperor in Chengde to order the princes.But in fact on the way back to Beijing.Sushun, Duanhua and Zai once dispatched assassins to secretly assassinate the empress dowagers of the two palaces.Now that you have the intention to kill people, why not simply stay in the palace or go north to Shengjing, but you must know that there are tigers in the mountain and go to the tiger mountain, so as to prompt the empress dowagers of the two palaces to listen to the government behind the curtain, relieve the rights of the eight ministers of Gu Ming, and at the same time Also sent himself to the guillotine?

Now that he has come to this point, Sushun certainly doesn't care about things like "it's hard to hide the mouths of the world".After all, in comparison, power and life are more important than anything else.So there was only one reason for returning to Beijing after the funeral: he was confident that with his own power, he could completely compete with the Gong party and the empress dowagers of the two palaces!

In history, Sushun Fengzi Palace and the empress dowagers of the two palaces returned to the capital once.Immediately dismissed from office, Sushun, Duanhua, and Zaiyuan were all executed and their homes were ransacked. The remaining five of the eight ministers of Gu Ming were full of charge and leather, and none of them remained. The ice melted and disintegrated overnight, and the empress dowagers of the two palaces also officially listened to the government behind the curtain, unveiling the first female lead in the history of the Qing Dynasty.So far, doubts have come out: Sushun, who has always been scheming.Before returning to Beijing, it is natural to reserve a way out for yourself. What is the reason for losing everything overnight, so that he lost his family and life?

There is no clear record of this point in history, and historians have different opinions and hold their own opinions.Xiao Ran, a half-hearted history buff, naturally couldn't figure it out, but now, he is confident that he has begun to see the clues.

Zeng Guofan's Hunan Army.It was a trump card held by Sushun; it is very likely that at the last moment, this trump card turned against the water!

Thinking of this, li xuan took a deep breath, his face was obviously pale in the night.Reminiscent of Zeng Guofan's later encounters, he was appreciated by Cixi and was named a first-class Marquis of Courage. He became the No. 1 Wuhou who was named a literati in the Qing Dynasty.First-class official residence.Among all Hanchen, there is no other.In other words, the Han minister who was recommended and promoted by Sushun was not only not implicated after Sushun's downfall.Instead, he has become a celebrity and a great official in the frontier that the court relies on!Later generations' evaluation of this is mostly attributed to Cixi's employment vision, but now it seems that this Zeng Wenzheng Gong had already served Prince Gong before the coup.At least, they must have secretly communicated the song!

I see! ...

Xiao Ran was silent for a long time, his two eyes gradually glowed in the night, looking like a wolf hiding in the dark.Lin Qing'er practiced martial arts since she was a child, and her courage was considered acceptable, but for some reason, seeing his expression at this time, she felt a little scared in her heart, and said hesitantly: "You...Are you okay?"

"Ah? It's okay, it's okay!" Xiao Ran finally came back to his senses, and suddenly found that he was still tightly clutching a pair of slender hands, he hurriedly let go, and said embarrassingly: "I'm sorry, I was... rude for a while!"

"..." Lin Qing'er didn't pay attention to it just now, and when she said this to him, she suddenly became alert, and suddenly felt her cheeks burning hot.What's more, the two of them were snuggling side by side, so ashamed that they groaned, got up in a hurry, lowered their heads and wanted to run forward in a hurry.Unexpectedly, he had just run two steps, but bumped into a person with a thud.

"Miss Fang!" Seeing who was coming, Lin Qing'er let out a low cry, wishing she could find a crack in the ground and slip in.It's too bad, the scene of being intimate with li xuan just now has most likely been seen by his wife, for a big girl to do such a thing, she is really ashamed and ashamed to death!For a while, Fang's heart was beating wildly, and she didn't know where to put her hands and feet.

"Miss Lin, what a coincidence!" Yu Ting didn't seem to see it, and said with a smile, "You are also bored inside, come out to relax? The moonlight is really good tonight, and the sky is cool. Come out for a walk Let's go, the whole person feels refreshed."

"Ah, yes,... yes." Lin Qinger breathed a sigh of relief.But my heart was still up and down, and I stammered: "Well, it's getting late, and I have to train tomorrow, I, I won't accompany Miss Fang!" The head hurriedly walked down the cliff by itself.

over!Xiao Ran's heart felt cold all of a sudden.The moment Lin Qing'er left, she couldn't speak clearly even with her mouth covered all over.Tathagata Bodhisattva, God Jesus... I begged all the gods and gods I could think of for a while, and I only hoped that my wife really had a problem with her eyes and didn't see anything.Thinking about it, I felt that I was mentally retarded: such a big moon, I am afraid it would be difficult to see it!

"Cough!" Yu Ting coughed heavily.Xiao Ran arched in the grass.Only half of his buttocks were exposed outside, and he didn't dare to move.Just now he broke out in a cold sweat, but now the wind blows coolly on his back, and he couldn't help shivering slightly.

"No one?" Yuting said to herself.Xiao Ran desperately imagined himself as a stone.

"...Brother Zhang, come out quickly, my dead ghost is not here!"

"???!!!"

After being slightly stunned for a second, Xiao Ran jumped out of the grass as if he had been pierced by an awl in his buttocks.With red eyes, ready to PK at any time.But then it was discovered that he had been fooled.It's clear and clear on the cliff, where is there a half-figure?

"Aha, wow... Wife, what a coincidence! I... I just climbed up from the bottom of the cliff, can you believe it?"

"What do you say?"

"..."

"Little Sanzi, I suddenly remembered a sentence: Fertility and water don't flow into outsiders' fields."

"..."

"I think of another sentence: Greed is not enough to swallow an elephant."

"..."

"There is another sentence: you do the first day of junior high school, and I do the fifteenth day."

"... Wife!" Xiao Ran grabbed Yu Ting's sleeve, and cried with grief, "It's really wronged, my wife. The third son has always been innocent, clean and self-disciplined, flawless, and loyal to my lord... oh , It’s loyalty... Well, loyalty is not four! Woohoo!”

Yu Ting couldn't bear it anymore.Giggling and bending over, "Fool! I saw you and Miss Lin just now, and I didn't say anything about you. Why are you so scared?"

"Ah?" Xiao Ran almost suspected that he had heard it wrong, and immediately raised his ears, "You, you didn't mean to wrong me, did you? Don't tell me, you agree with me and Miss Lin..." He said it was a smuggle.It couldn't be Lin Qing'er who had already bought Yu Ting, right? ...

"Bah, dead eunuch, what beautiful things are you thinking of!" Yu Ting poked his forehead vigorously, "I mean, I heard what Miss Lin said just now. I really can't think of such a girl with strong martial arts. , actually had such a miserable life experience. Alas, I feel so sorry for her!...She just couldn't help it for a while when she treated you like that. Can't you make trouble?"

Yu Ting is also a hard-working person. She lost her parents since she was a child, and her siblings depended on each other. It goes without saying how much she suffered when she traveled from Shanxi to Hebei and then to the capital.It was also because of this that she was deeply moved by what happened to Lin Qing'er, and felt sympathy for her.Although there was an excessive move at one time, but firstly, there was a reason for the incident, and secondly, it was dark and no one saw it, so forget it in the past, and there is no need to make troubles all over the city.

Her personality is the exact opposite of Xueyao and Ning Xin's, soft on the outside and strong on the inside, quite tolerant.Hearing these words, Xiao Ran was so grateful that he couldn't think about it for a while and wished he could pay homage to him.He hugged her in his arms and kissed her violently.

Yu Ting was gasping for breath under his kiss, she was almost breathless, she managed to break free from his embrace, and said: "I'm not doing anything right! This big moon is so embarrassing to be seen by others." After trimming his hair, he said solemnly: "But my husband, I understand, I still have to say something. You know what Yu Lai thinks about Miss Lin. I'm just such a relative, and I don't want you to hurt me no matter what. It broke his heart. Men have three wives and four concubines. If you fall in love with another girl, I can't control you. But for Miss Lin, I hope you can think about Yulai. The only one who begs you, can you promise me?"

"Don't worry, my wife is so open-minded and magnanimous, is my husband the kind of person who forgets righteousness when he sees sex!" Xiao Ran patted his chest and vowed, with no shame on his face.

In the early morning of the next day, Yu Ting specially cooked some delicate dishes by herself, brought them to Lin Qing'er's room, and had breakfast with her.Usually, they eat with Xiao Ran and Ning Xin, so Lin Qing'er naturally understood the meaning.

Lin Qing'er basically didn't sleep much that night, the shadow of Xiao Ran was tossing and turning in front of her eyes.It was the first time that he had such thoughts for a man in such a big age, but when he thought of his two beautiful wives, he didn't know what to do, so he couldn't help being ashamed, worried, tender and lingering.In one night, he was tortured and haggard a lot.Seeing Yu Ting chatting and laughing now, and kept picking up food for herself, not caring about what happened last night, I couldn't help feeling admiration and shame at the same time.I can only force a smile on my face, but I feel pity for myself secretly: It seems that this kind of thought can only be hidden in my heart from now on!

This is probably where Yu Ting is brilliant.

After breakfast, Lin Qing'er went to look for Xiao Ran alone and said goodbye to him.Seeing the haggardness that could not be concealed on her beautiful face, Xiao Ran also vaguely understood something in his heart, but he couldn't comfort him.Perhaps at this time, it is the best choice to let her go.

But after careful consideration, Xiao Ran changed his mind.

When Lin Qing'er went down the mountain, she was bound to seek revenge from Zeng Guofan.With her own strength, it's like moths to a flame, or eggs to a rock, and she can't just watch her die.In addition, for Zeng Guofan, this person cannot be killed no matter what!

For Zeng Guofan, later generations have mixed opinions. For nearly a hundred years, the benevolent sees benevolence, and the wise sees wisdom.In terms of suppressing the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, he was a veritable executioner, killing people like hemp.Xiao Ran still remembers writing in the "Biography of Zeng Guofan": After the Hunan army invaded Nanjing, they implemented the "three-light" policy,... searched and killed in sections, and killed more than [-] thieves in three days. ...for three days and nights the flames continued.

In fact, most of the more than [-] "long hairs" are ordinary people.It is said that there was a child crying at night, as long as he said "Zeng shaved his head", the crying stopped immediately, which shows that his cruelty has reached the point where it cannot be added.

Later, the Tianjin Religious Case occurred. Zeng Guofan was unwilling to start a war with foreigners, presided over the peace talks, compensated foreign countries with 46 taels, and killed and exiled many Chinese compatriots.At that time, people called him a traitor, so that Zeng Guofan also felt that "the internal blame is gods, and the external blame is clear", and he was besieged on all sides for a while.

Later generations said that he was "the pioneer of rectification on the spot", a traitor who has been infamous for thousands of years, and the historians after the founding of the People's Republic of China condemned him to the end. Traitors, etc., should be completely denied.But with all these things, people have to admit a fact: a weak country has no diplomacy, under the oppression of a strong power, and under the imperial system, the so-called traitors and traitors are not only the sorrow of an individual, but also the sorrow of a nation.In fact, two famous figures in modern Chinese history, Mao Zedong and Jiang Zhongzheng, spoke highly of Zeng Guofan.Mao Zedong said such a sentence: "Only obey Zeng Wenzheng".

Regardless of the opinion of Zeng Guofan himself, one point is undoubtedly crucial to Xiao Ran: Zeng Guofan was the initiator of the early Westernization Movement in China, and undoubtedly played the mainstay role in the embryonic stage of China's first technological change .For China, which was backward at that time, the existence of such a person was very important!

At least, he still needs this Zeng to shave his head.

Therefore, he must stop Lin Qing'er from taking revenge.But is there any way to explain these things to her clearly? Just as he was thinking about how to keep her, Monk Hua suddenly came running out of breath, and reported nervously that he had caught a spy in the county town at the foot of the mountain.

Xiao Ran was taken aback: Could it be that the Daxingshan base was discovered by the officers and soldiers so quickly?After careful questioning, I found out that early this morning, the eyeliner lurking in the county found that a person had pulled up a cloth banner in the city, with the three characters "Xiao, Duan, Cheng" written on it.The eyeliner was taken aback, and when the man walked out of the city, he caught him and flew him to Daxing Mountain.

Xiao Ran felt strange, and hurriedly went to see the detailed work.When they came to the stone room where they were detained, Cheng Tong and Duan Xingnian also arrived, and the three of them were surprised at the same time: "Bao Lu!"

The visitor looked haggard and haggard, but his handsome appearance was vaguely recognizable, no doubt it was Bao Lu!It seems that he couldn't find Xiao Ran and the others, so he had no choice but to make such a bad move.Xiao Ran hurriedly helped him up, only to realize that he was knocked out, and pinched him vigorously, Baolu snorted slightly, and finally opened his eyes.

"Little Sanzi! It's not good, the emperor passed away, Xiao's mansion was confiscated, Xueyao and Wang Meng... were all arrested!"

"what!!!……"
