1430 The Queen Mother Showdown

Cixi collapsed directly on the chair. She knew that her son had caused a big disaster. The already fragile court made Zaichun completely break up after such a struggle.

"Let's go! Let's go to Jingshan and Qiwanglou. I'm going to pay my respects to my sister!"

At the critical moment, Cixi thought of her sister again. Although the two had differences in political views, one thing was that their interests were unified, that was Zaichun's status.

Ci'an has no children. As the leader of the two empress dowagers, with the support of Zaichun, she is a real empress dowager. If there is another emperor, then his status as the empress dowager will gradually become marginalized.

Ci'an hates Cixi but definitely doesn't hate Zaichun. That's the reason.

The group walked north through Shenwu Gate and rushed directly up Jingshan. At this time, Ci'an seemed to have realized that Cixi was going to see her, so he warmed up a pot of Huadiao early and asked the imperial chef to make a few side dishes. At noon, the two sisters drank two cups and chatted as before.

When Cixi met, she wanted to confuse her with Ci'an. She wanted to ask Cixi to save the little emperor?

??It was Ci'an who raised his hand to stop her words, and just poured a glass of warm wine to give Cixi a piece of fish.

"Try it. This is a chef recommended by Fuqing, Vice Minister of the Zongli Yamen. I heard that I have studied cooking skills in Fusang for a few years and are good at making puffer fish. Especially this sashimi has a unique flavor. My sister must try it!"

Cixi swallowed and said, "Yes, I'm just fish now. You're the one who's the knife and you'll eat me. If you let me eat me, I'll fight it. I'll fight it if it's poisonous." Cixi, who made up her mind, swallowed the puffer fish meat in her stomach in one bite, and swallowed it without even tasting any taste."

Ci'an smiled faintly and waved his hand to ask Zhou Daoying to take the other eunuchs and palace maids down, leaving only two sisters in the room.

"Actually, I knew you had asked me for a long time. I've been waiting for a long time... I'm not saying sarcastic words to you, I just want to tell you that the road you took before was wrong!"

"Zaichun is your own son, and no one can replace your status. This is the consensus between the government and the opposition, so you want to go further! Don't rush to deny it, everyone is smart, can I not know what you think?"

"You have deliberately destroyed the secret order of the First Emperor from my hands. Isn't you afraid of me to use the First Emperor's hands to eradicate you? And your ultimate ideal is to be a powerful queen mother, thinking of you in a good way, you want to be a Xiaozhuang... If I miss you in a bad way, do you want to be a martial arts queen?"

The cold tone scared Cixi to kneel down with a thud. She was also a smart person who could bend and stretch. At this time, if she didn't kneel and stood up straight, she would be looking for death.

This is how the distribution of forces in the Korean Central Government was. Cixi and Prince Gong were in the same group. Everyone regarded them as conservatives. Ci'an and Fuqing also had a large number of officials belonging to radical reformists. Then there was factions among these two factions, and the Qingliu forces were mixed in, and the Hunan Army and other local governors were also mixed in.

The court in the late Qing Dynasty was in chaos!

On the surface, Cixi was a conservative leader, and even the Japanese devils had to listen to her, but no one would forget that she was Zaichun's biological mother at the same time, and her son's actions would also affect her mother.

Today, Zaichun's arbitrary behavior has made the conservatives disgusted with Cixi. There have been deep rifts within the conservatives. At this time, Cixi should not complain about any political disagreement. First, join forces with Ci'an to maintain her son's status and keep her wealth and honor.

Not to mention anything else, in this dark Forbidden City, it is true that you protect your life first. If the situation is so serious that it is as powerful as water and fire, do you think those people dare not poison Cixi?

Ci'an looked at her faintly and said softly, "You should have knelt long ago. If it weren't for you, the Qing Dynasty's court wouldn't have been in such chaos..."

Ci'an suddenly changed his face and his long-standing anger erupted, and all the anger that had been suppressed for a long time burst out. "We were indeed not united in the court before, but since the palace change in the year of Xinyou, at least we have completed the scene!"

"The group of ministers Gu Ming was bombed off the stage. The court had been in harmony that had not seen for many years. It was everyone who worked together that we finally defeated Changmao, suppressed the hundreds of thousands of Hunan Army, and suppressed Zeng Shawn's head!"

"Why were there any confusing conservatives and reformists at that time? After all, everyone's conflicts were about interests and money... Look at it now, the court is already as powerful as water and fire, and the contradictions have risen to the thoughts!"

"This is the most terrifying thing. Because we can find ways to make more money because of quarrels in the business position. We can coordinate and even rotate officials in multiple ways... But if this person's thinking is different, it will be a quarrel that will last forever!"

With a crisp sound, Ci'an slapped Cixi hard, and the Queen Mother Dong burst into tears, "When will the Ai family be this reformist? What should I change? Isn't my purpose the same as you? Am I just thinking about Zaichun becoming an adult as soon as possible? Who cares about the bullshit reform!"

"It's you! It's you who forced me to this road alive. You ruined my secret order and wanted to poison me. You are so vicious! If the Ai family doesn't bring up a reform delegation, I can't survive..."

"It's you, a stupid slut! It's your greed that ruined the court with one hand!"

Cixi covered her face and tears fell down. She was really scared today. She suddenly realized that she could no longer control the situation. Why did she disappear nine years ago, who was planning to do things?

Seeing that Ci'an had almost vented, Cixi kowtowed, "My sister's sins are so cruel that she can't wash away the waters of the rivers. I don't defend myself. Today I came to me not to ask my sister to forgive me. I just ask my sister to help Zaichun and help our son!"

"As long as you pass this disaster safely and as long as Zaichun can successfully rule, I will never come out again in my life... Please beg my sister for compassion, not to pay my face, Zaichun's face!"

Zaichun was Ci'an's biggest weakness. Thinking of that smart child, Ci'an's anger gradually dissipated.

"A grievance! Injustice! The country has been in power for more than 200 years and has become the throne of the throne, Zai Chun, and any other emperor has made a breakthrough by competing and has brothers!"

"Only Zaichun has no brothers. He is the only male of the late emperor. His inheritance rights are so clean that no one in the court or the country has any objections! What a good situation. As long as we keep our composure and let Zaichun grow slowly, power will naturally flow into his hands!"
