4185 The shelf is big enough

"Dog guy! Come and put on the prince's airs at this time. Are you here to pay condolences or protest?" A low-key scolding came from the escorts of Zeng Mansion. The escorts of Prince Gong's mansion clearly heard it, but no one dared to say anything.

The sedan chair landed at the simple door of the mansion. Yi, who was wearing royal blue casual clothes, squeezed a painful expression on his face. He walked into the gate. The sons and nephews of the Zeng family and the servants knelt down!

"Please greet your Majesty!" Everyone shouted in unison. Just as they knew that Yi was the plenipotent representative appointed by the emperor, he must have brought the emperor's oral order, so they could only thank Jun's kindness first!

"Oh, oh...this...this...this...this...this! The second young master, please come up quickly! This king did not bring the emperor's will, why do you worship me like this?"

Boom! This sentence was so exciting. Even the Chinese officials who were watching the fun could not see it. Sima Yun frowned and whispered, "Why are Zaichun crazy? If someone doesn't come, he won't come. Will he treat the general like this?"

"The bones are not cold, and the tea is colder too quickly..."

Xiao Letian looked coldly at the rebellious Japanese 6 acting here, and his eyes were as cold as he wanted to kill people. Of course, Yi knew that Xiao Letian was watching him, and only felt that his back was chilling, but he ignored him and continued to greet the second young master.

"Second Young Master, before I come to pay my respects, I will tell you a happy event... When I entered the palace, the Ministry of Rites had already drafted the posthumous title, and Lord Li Hongzao will bring the decree later..."

"I would like to say goodbye to the second young master in advance. The posthumous title given by the court is 'Wenzheng'! Look, the court still has not forgotten the great commander's contribution!"

"Wenzheng, Wenzheng! In the eyes of the emperor and the empress dowager, the general is always a Confucian minister and a scholar's orthodox character. This word is really wonderful!"

Originally, the Zeng family was looking forward to this posthumous title. Asking for a word was Zeng Guofan’s greatest wish before his death. At this moment, the court fulfilled the wish of the general. Logically speaking, the Zeng family should thank him very much!

But at this moment, this posthumous title is very uncomfortable. Is it just a few words to give me a lifetime of merits and demerits? There is no friendship at all, and it is not worth the emperor's trip?

However, the funeral was a big deal, and the filial son could not have any temper at all at this time. Even if someone came to him, he had to endure it. He had to take revenge and wait for peace to send his father to bury.

"I thank God!" The second young master hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed.

Prince Gong's performance afterwards was even more infuriating. He burned incense and bowed but did not kneel down because he was the prince. How could the prince kneel down to his subjects according to the etiquette?

If people can't find any reason for it, the atmosphere is already very subtle at this moment. The Zeng family and all the subordinates of the Grand Marshal's Mansion are already full of anger. At this time, you, the Japanese Liu, will be really unreasonable!

Even though Zeng Jihong had a good temper, he felt unhappy on his face at this time. After returning the gift respectfully, he said coldly, "Please go to the room for tea..."

The so-called condolences are nothing more than a formality, and the host and the host perform a play, bringing an end to the life of the deceased!

However, at this time, we can see the use of Xiao Letian, an outsider. Anyway, he is the head of Chinese and not an official of the Qing Dynasty, so there is no need to give anyone any face. Xiao Letian stopped the Japanese and said coldly, "Prince Gong, long time no see!"

The Japanese leaped his eyes and a wry smile appeared on his face, "Ah... It turned out to be Xiao Letian! Long time no see, his dragon power has indeed been transformed!"

Yi and Xiao Letian met for the first time in Prince Gong's Mansion. At that time, Xiao Letian was just a Western scholar who had just written a few chapters of serial novels. He could not even find out the authenticity of his identity!

It was in Prince Gong’s Mansion that Xiao Letian offered the so-called special zone reform strategy and severely cheated the Qing court. The Tanggu Special Zone was the pit dug at that time!

When we met again, we arrived at Xiao Letian to lead his troops to break through Guangqu Gate and lift the siege of Beiyuan. At that time, Xiao Letian had been in power in the capital for more than half a year!

He never met again after that. This time, Xiao Letian went to the city to the Sixth Guardian, and he was sick at home and did not go to see him. Today, his enemies came together.

Xiao Letian was too lazy to pay attention to the Japanese, and asked, "Prince Gong is the leader of the funeral committee? Then I would like to ask, will Your Majesty come yet? Do all the royal palaces in the capital have plans to pay their respects?"

"How many days is this great man who is dead? When will he return home... Since you are responsible for the general manager, you must have an explanation, right?"

"Ah..." A few words made the Japanese Liu confused. How could he really care about the funeral? He wished Zeng Guofan would die early!

Moreover, he did not see Emperor Tongzhi when he entered the palace this time. He just made a move at the Military Affairs Office and heard the posthumous title! In the heart of the Japanese Six, he wanted to see the Xiang Army Group and Emperor Tongzhi fall apart!

He could only add fuel to the fire and make the Zeng family even more resentful of the emperor. How could he give Zaichun advice to ease the conflict? He is not a fool. He will launch a coup tomorrow. Who has the heart to take care of the messenger’s affairs!

Yi raised his head and looked at the sky, "Your Majesty is going to get married, so you must not be able to come! Besides, Yu Li is in a disagreement. I have never heard of a minister who must be given by the emperor in person if he dies!"

"As for all the princes and nobles in the capital, they are not my subordinates, how can I know whether they come or not?"

"As for how many days to stop the spirit, this is the Zeng family's own business, let the two young masters consider it!"

"Haha... So, you, the person in charge, just don't care about anything and know nothing? OK, okay, I'm really eye-opening!"

Yi hated Xiao Letian to the core and heard the head of state mocking him, but he was not weak. "Xiao Letian! Don't forget that this is the capital, the capital of the Qing Dynasty. You don't have the right to talk about my court affairs yet!"

"I'll give you an old saying... Don't look at your fuss today, be careful and get a list afterwards! I wish you peace and stability in the future and a mistake in one step!"

Yi left a harsh word, turned around and left without tea, but actually left the Zeng Mansion!

This rude behavior suddenly angered everyone present. Many Hunan Army officers were about to take off at that time. Zeng Jihong saw that something was wrong and quickly asked the old farmer to suppress everyone.

"Uncle Nong, go! Don't let all the uncles make trouble! Don't be in trouble when my father is in a funeral!"

"Yes..." The old farmer was dizzy.

Xiao Letian watched the Japanese Liu Yang leave and muttered in his heart, "It's not right! This is not Yi's personality! Even if he has a rift with the Grand Marshal, he would not be so shameless to the Zeng family at this time!"

"Is there something I don't know?"

Xiao Letian waved to the second young master, "The second young master, speak in a while!"
