1115 The Frightened Forbidden City

The entire Forbidden City was shrouded in a severe atmosphere, diluting the rare festive celebration of the New Year. Yi? After getting off the horse from outside the Meridian Gate, he didn't have time to wait for the eunuch to adjust the sedan chair, and raised his legs and trotted towards the harem.

After passing the Meridian Gate, pass through the Zhendu Gate on the west side of Taihe Gate, and jog from the west side of Taihe Hall Square. I saw the surrounding imperial guards, eunuchs and walking officials all stunned.

After passing the middle right door to the back right door, even though Yi and Yihuan practice martial arts and worked hard, they were tired and sweaty. When the cold wind in Dongrili blew, they were wet and sticky all over their body.

After passing the back right gate, there is the Tianye Street between the outer court and the inner court. The front front door is facing the Military Affairs Office established by Master Yongzheng. At this time, countless Military Affairs Offices Zhang Jing was standing at the door and looking out, one by one, as if he was mourning and reviewing, and was silent.

The dynasty has been more than 200 years, and has encountered all kinds of obstacles. It has fought against the Russians in the north, fought against Junggargan in the northwest, and the Qinghai-Tibet expedition, and the Changmao rebellion in the south has been quelled... It is said that an incident of Ryukyu's separation of the vassal states would not have made the court so miserable, but this time it is different. The emperor is by Xiao Letian's side. How good is this!

Just after passing the right door of the rear, before Yi was waiting for Yi? When the person ran to the door of the Military Affairs Office, he saw a group of eunuchs with brilliant feathers rushing out from the inner right door leading to the harem on the east side of the Military Affairs Office. The leader was not an outsider, but Li Lianying, the eunuch beside Cixi. Looking back, Zhou Daoying, the eunuch beside Ci'an, also followed.

"Oh my ancestors, my grandmother... You are here, two princes. If you don't come to Yangxin Palace, you will have to collapse. The two empress dowagers almost let the rebellious be angry. How is this good..."

Li Lianying rushed up and cried with tears in her eyes. Yi asked, "What's the situation? Why did the two eunuchs come out in person?" After a closer look at Li Lianying's mouth, there was a red palm print on her palm. It seemed that she had not served her just now.

Yi Huan next to him secretly took out two pieces of paper from his cuffs. Just looking up, Li Lianying and Zhou Daoying knew that it was a Lotte Bank promissory note of 3,000 yuan. It was recognized but not the person. It was very useful in Sijiu City.

Yihuan quietly stuffed the promissory note into the sleeves of the two eunuchs. "What did the two old Buddhas say? Did there be an imperial decree pass on?"

Zhou Daoying sighed, "Don't ask, it's all numb. Just now, the empress dowager even wanted Xishan Camp to rescue the emperor immediately. Thanks to Lord Weng who came a step earlier and persuaded him..."

The group talked and walked. After approaching the Military Office, Yi stopped and shouted coldly, "What are you all watching outside? Can a broken island in the East China Sea be a success? Come on... Write down all these names for watching the fun, and I will see who has such a great leisure!"

A group of people was dispersed with one sentence. The group of Zhang Jing scattered like flies, and they all got back into the broken house of the Military Affairs Office.

Yi? turned his head and said to his subordinates, "Go down to notify the Ministry of Rites. All rituals will be carried out as usual. The fee can be increased by 20% according to the rules. If there is not enough money, they will go to the ** yamen to support them... It is the most important time to stabilize people's hearts!"

"Tell the Ministry of Revenue and the Ministry of Internal Affairs and send me a detailed account of deposits. If the capital is in a state of fluctuation, it may affect prices. I have to be careful!"

This is how people's hearts are. No matter how powerful women are on weekdays, when encountering chaos with the sky falling and the earth falling, people subconsciously have to listen to men. At this time, Prince Gong, the big family of the Qing Dynasty, stood up. Not to mention, the eunuchs suddenly became less panicked.

"Yeah! I'll do it now..." Two eunuchs and two guards took the order and left quickly.

After passing the inner right gate, you will enter the so-called harem world. Generally speaking, the territory behind the Ganqing Gate belongs to the inner palace, and it is generally difficult for foreign ministers to set foot on, especially in the Ming Dynasty, most of the emperor's decrees were conveyed on the heavenly street at the Ganqing Gate. The ministers knelt down here to receive the emperor's decrees, and even the most people in the Ganqing Palace behind could not enter.

In the Qing Dynasty, the rules were slightly relaxed, especially in the Yongzheng Dynasty, the emperor who ascended the throne should have lived in the Ganqing Palace, but Yongzheng did not like the big palace and moved his residence and office to the Yangxin Palace to the west.

Not only that, Emperor Yongzheng also changed the small bungalow closest to Yangxin Hall on Tianjie to the Military Affairs Office. The office location of the core officials of the empire was transferred from the cabinet lobby beside the Meridian Gate to the heart of the Forbidden City, which was only a wall away from the harem.

According to the Ming Dynasty's etiquette system, how could the halls in the harem allow irrelevant men outside to enter? This means that the Manchus do not pay much attention to the etiquette of the Han people, and it would be impossible for them to be put in the Ming Dynasty.

In fact, the Qing Dynasty thought that it had adhered to the Confucian tradition of etiquette and law. In fact, in the eyes of real Han Confucians, they were always barbarians, but no one dared to say it in person.

For example, Weng Zhongtang, who was standing in the East Warm Pavilion of Yangxin Hall, lowered his head and lowered his eyes forty-five degrees, and just focused his eyes on the empty emperor throne. From this angle, he could use his own light to see the bed behind the emperor throne and the two women on the bed.

It was a mess, it was really a mess. The yellow curtains that were in power behind the curtains were so busy that they didn't put them down. This was too contrary to etiquette. However, the situation of Li Lianying being beaten just now is still vivid in my mind. Weng Tonghe would not be so stupid to take the initiative to remind him.

He sighed in his heart, "The rules have been changed too much, and it is not bad this time. Just think I am blind! Don't look at it if you are not polite, don't say anything if you are not polite!"

Soon the footsteps sounded, and the two powerful princes rushed in from outside, and the heat on their foreheads was full of sweat.

Seeing the nervous look of the two uncles, the sister-in-law could no longer have a stern face. Cixi quickly said, "Are you all dead people without eyes? Did the sweat of the two princes run over from the Meridian Gate? Why don't you prepare horses and sedan chairs?"

Li Lianying and others were so scared that they fell to their knees on the ground and dared not tell the difference. Or did Yi? He waved his hand and said, "I'm not blaming them, I'm too anxious. I haven't waited for the sedan chair to come... Forget it, hurry up and discuss the serious matters. Where is the telegram? Show me..."

There was a group of men in the room. Weng Tonghe, who was not polite to look down on the matter, finally said, "Two princes, the telegram is here! In addition, I suggest sending an order to let Yang Zhi come too. After all, he has followed Xiao Letian and should be able to give some advice on the matter of Ryukyu..."

"Do it... that's it. Old man, you're right. Send someone to pick up Yang Zhi quickly!"

Ci'an was silent for a long time and finally said, "Whenever there is a big deal, you should be calm, give me a seat first! The old man has been standing for a long time..." Everyone quickly bowed and thanked him and then sat down one after another.

But it was also strange. In the end, no one noticed the abnormality of the apricot yellow curtain. It was obvious that what should have been put down was so wide and opened.

If Xiao Letian wanted to know what happened today, he would definitely sigh, and perhaps he would have to express a trace of nostalgia for his previous life.
