Chapter 60: Great Qing Dynasty

The Lao Taishan of Lin Zhi’s Mansion is the official Beijing official. The mansion is located in the inner city. Liu Yanzhi went to Li Mansion by himself. He entered the inner city from Zhengyangmen. To the east of the city is the famous embassy area in Dongjiaomin Lane. This place has changed. As a barricade, no less than tens of thousands of Qing troops and Boxers surrounded this place and attacked day and night.

Dressed as a boxer, Liu Yanzhi went straight to Li's Mansion in Xicheng. The mansion of Li Shilang was in an alley near Taipu Temple. The door was very big, and the gate of vermilion lacquer was open. There were two stools at the door, sitting three seats. Personally, one boxer with red cloth heads, one old and one young, and a family member wearing a melon hat.

Is it possible that Li Mansion was also occupied by the boxers. Liu Yan was very puzzled. He decided to come first and then pawn. After asking, he realized that these people were invited by Li Mansion. Grandpa Li knew the righteousness and practiced boxing at home and supported him. Baishizi Boxer, eat here and sleep here every day, in other words, Li Mansion is now the base of the Boxer.

   The servants of the Li Mansion heard that Liu Yanzhi was sent by Master Jiang Donggu to deliver the letter, so they asked him where he was. Liu Yanzhi said that he had to hand it to your master personally, and the servant asked him to wait at the door to report to the master quickly.

   I was idle, too. Liu Yanzhi and an old and one young boxer chattered. It turned out that they were the ones who attacked the Xishiku Catholic Church. They had been walking around for a day today and had just withdrawn to rest.

The old guy is called Wang San, and the younger is called Liu Zi. Both of them are boxers from Baoding Prefecture in Zhili province. They followed the big brother to Beijing to meet the world. When they first arrived, they were called to attack Beitang (commonly known as Xishiku Church). , Watching hundreds of invulnerable brothers die on the charge.

   Six sons asked: "Old Uncle Wang, why the rune water given by the big brother doesn't work? I think Zhu Zi drank two large bowls and let the guns kill him."

Wang San said, "You don’t understand this. It’s not the master’s talisman that doesn’t work. It’s the pillar. He slept with a woman the night before and broke the exercise. You know, our Taoism is good, just can’t touch it. Woman, it will fail at the first touch, little six, you can't touch a woman in the future."

   Six sons said, "But the previous night I ate and slept together with Brother Zhuzi. I didn't see him touching a woman."

Wang San’s face was a little bit awkward, but this question couldn’t trouble him. He said, “It’s not alright if the pillar doesn’t touch a woman. Why? There are spies and informants. Foreigners know our fate, the old devil bishop in the North Hall, The magic is also incredible. He has a whisk in his hand, made of hair from under the woman, and on the wall of the church, all the women's households hung on the boxer brothers."

   Six sons asked: "What is a householder?"

   Wang San coughed dryly: "Just forced."

   Liuzi blushed, and stopped breaking the casserole to ask the end.

   Liu Yan directly interjected: "I heard that the eight-nation coalition of foreigners has landed at Dagukou and is heading towards Beijing. What countermeasures do we have for the Boxer?"

Wang San dismissed it and said, "Big brothers and sisters know this. Yesterday, the prince invited Grandma Huang Lian to the practice. Grandma received the incense, and went to Dagu Kou with a cloud overnight, and only came back this morning. Duan Palace pressed the head of the cloud, dropped a deadly sack, and left without saying anything."

   The six asked: "What's in the sack? Isn't it the head of a foreigner?"

  Wang Sandao: "It was someone else's trick to take the head of a person thousands of miles away with the sword. Grandma does not like to kill evil. This sack is filled with bolts. There are hundreds of bolts unscrewed from the foreign gunboat."

   Six sons joyfully said: "Without the bolts, the foreigner’s gunboat will not be able to move, so dare you."

Wang Sandao: "Isn't it? Grandma of the Virgin has taken action. There is no way for foreigners to survive. Besides, there are hundreds of thousands of our Boxers in Tianjin, not to mention the Eight Nations Allied Forces, that is, the Eighty Nations Allied Forces. Back."

   The six sons are convinced that they can't admire Grandma.

The next person came to the report, saying that the master had invited Liu Yan straight in with the housekeeper. Li Mansion is the gate of the mansion. The courtyard is at least five entrances. It is divided into the inner and outer houses. The outer courtyard is all occupied by the Boxers. The stone locks, the official swords, and the hands are right. Practicing, the house is lively like a circus.

Liu Yanzhi took out a silver dollar and handed it to his servant. He asked him about the details of the Li Mansion. The servant suddenly smiled, knowing it all. He said that now the master is in charge of the house, and the old lady used to be the minister of the Ministry of rites. The master is the fifth grade Zhangjing of the Prime Minister’s Office. He is busy every day, despite foreigners.

   "Thanks." Liu Yanzhi had a clear heart.

   In the main living room of the inner house, a middle-aged man in a long robe and jacket met Liu Yanzhi, the eldest son of Mrs. Li and the eldest brother of Lin Huaiyuan, Li Zhongzheng.

The guest and the host were seated, the maid serving tea, Liu Yan was thirsty, and took a sip when he picked up the teacup. Li Zhongzheng was startled, and said to his heart how this person is so bold, and the tea for the guests is just a kind of etiquette. When the host picks up the tea bowl, it means to see off the guests.

Liu Yanzhi did not understand this, nor did he drink the quality of the tea. He was purely to find out about thirst. After the cow drank a cup of tea, he offered the envelope with both hands. Li Chongzheng took the letter and said with a great effort, he put the envelope aside and picked it up. After finishing the teacup, he lifted the lidding bowl, blowing the heat gently.

   "Send off the guest~~~" the butler stretched his voice.

   Liu Yanzhi didn't plan to leave, and said, "Master Li read the letter first. I have something to say after reading it."

Li Zhongzheng couldn't help but look up and look at the person. This person has a red cloth toe cap, short short boots, and a standard Boxer dress, but he has a good appearance, not like the country folks with crooked melons and dates. Rather, he looks like someone with a face and a face in Beijing. Son.

   He nodded, took out his brother-in-law's autograph letter from the envelope, and read the ten lines at a glance. He couldn't help being shocked.

   This person in front of him is actually someone next to the emperor, no wonder he is so powerful.

   Liu Yan opened the door straight to the point and said: "Why did Master Li lead the wolf into the house and practice boxing in his own mansion? I don't know if these boxers are all rural gangsters.

   Li Zhongzheng smiled helplessly: "Even the Royal Palace has moved into Tuanmen. This is the same as the red cloth on Liu Yishi's head. It is for self-protection."

   Liu Yanzhi laughed dumbly. This sir Li is a smart man who knows how to work. It seems that dealing with each other will save a lot of trouble.

   "I heard that tens of thousands of boxers attacked Beitang, but didn't get it down?" Liu Yan said straight.

"It's not just tens of thousands. In a few days, there are also 50,000." Li Zhong was worried. "Not only there are the Boxers, but also the soldiers of the Tigers and Shenji. Dong Fuxiang's Ganjun, commanded by King Duan himself, guns. It's all available, but I still can't step into the Beitang."

   Liu Yan said straight: "Presumably there must be a large group of foreigners in the church."

   Li Zhongzheng shook his head: "It's just dozens of guns."

   Dozens of guns can resist the tens of thousands of boxers that claim to be invulnerable. The myth of the so-called Boxers can be seen. From this answer, you can also see the political attitude of Li Chongzheng. Liu Yan straightforwardly raised a question of injustice.

"Master Li, since ancient times the war between the two countries has not come to an end. The Qing Dynasty sent troops to encircle the embassy area. This is unreasonable internationally. I came from Tianjin and saw the coalition forces of various countries marching towards Beijing. According to this Rhythm, where do you think the Qing Dynasty will go?"

   Li Zhong asked, "What about Liu Yishi's opinion?"

   Liu Yan straightly sneered: "In my opinion, this great Qing country is going to be finished."

   Li Zhongzheng was silent, his brother-in-law's letter vaguely mentioned the mysterious identity of the guest. If the other party could say such a rebellious thing, he would never agree with him.

   "Unless..." Liu Yanzhi immediately added a sentence.

   "Unless what?" Li Zhongzheng immediately took it, and at the same time he gestured with his eyes to the housekeeper and the maid to leave. He knew that the topic was coming.

   "Unless the Queen Mother returns to power to the emperor." Liu Yan said in a low voice.

   "This is the capital crime of conspiracy to destroy the Nine Clan." Li Zhongzheng was a little nervous.

"The Queen Mother's surname is Yehenala. This world belongs to the Xinjueluo family. The Lafayette is very old, and the emperor is in full bloom..." Liu Yanzhi's words stirred Li Zhongzheng's eager heart. He is almost fifty years old. A five-grade Zhangjing, there is no way to get promoted, and all his lofty aspirations blow away with the rain.

Liu Yanzhi continued: "I have come all the way from Jiangdong, where the smoke is everywhere, and the people are not living. This capital is even more smoky. The officials are not like officials, and the people are not like the people. The Queen Mother has become an enemy of the world's powers. , A good time to stay in history."

   Li Zhongzheng was speechless. There were ten thousand horses running wild in his heart, and he couldn't calm down at all. He was just a civil official. He usually pointed to Jiangshan's lofty ambitions, but he was shocked when he met the true ones.

"Yes, I am from the emperor's side, and I have two paths in front of Master Li. One is like Yuan Shikai who is training soldiers at the small station. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com Starry Night informant exchanged a good head for a beautiful future for my little brother. I wish me a helping hand, and I won’t have a bachelor’s title in the future.” Liu Yan felt the other party’s hesitation and deliberately stabbed him with words.

   "Xiaguan is just a small fifth-grade Zhangjing in the prime minister's office. What can he do." Li Zhongzheng finally recovered. He couldn't do informant matters, but he couldn't do treason.

   "You can help me enter Dongjiaomin Lane." Liu Yan said straight, "Leave the rest to me."

   Li Zhongzheng said: "You don't know that Dongjiaomin Lane has been surrounded by Ronglu's Wuwei Army. Foreigners have also piled up barricades, mounted foreign guns, and fired when there is a disturbance. How can they get in?"

Liu Yan said straightforwardly: "Why don't it matter? In a few days, the Queen Mother will send someone to deliver rice, noodles, vegetables, melons and fruits to the embassy area. You will tell me in advance and let me follow in. Mrs. Li is the prime minister's office. It should be possible."

   Li Zhongzheng thought for a long time, and finally agreed.

   "Thank you, sir." Liu Yan straightened up to say goodbye, and Li Zhongzheng personally delivered to the gate. After returning, he shut himself in the study room and took a brush to write two lines on the rice paper.

   "I smiled from the horizontal knife to the sky, and left two Kunluns."

   After writing, throw away the pen and feel intense.

   Out of the window came the shouts of the Boxers practicing boxing again. Liu Yishi was right. The Qing Dynasty is really going to end.
