Chapter 3 The Son of Heaven
The Mingyue of the Song Dynasty http://www./0_1/ �
"Empress Dowager, it's time for you to leave." The old eunuch reminded carefully, and Cixi picked up a cannon and shot the other party's soldiers.
"Empress Dowager, you are only concerned about eating the servant's pawns. You don't pay attention to the handle of the servant. The servant killed the queen mother's horse!" The old eunuch stared at the chessboard, pressed the chess hard, picked up the other party's horse, and played happily on it.
Cixi was in a bad mood at first, but suddenly she heard that the old eunuch wanted to kill someone and her face changed. She slapped the chessboard and scolded: "You want to kill my horse? What a big tone! If you kill my horse, I will kill your whole family! Where are you here!"
The old eunuch then realized that he had caused trouble, and his whole body trembled. He hurriedly knelt down on the ground and kowtowed: "Empress Dowager, I've said the wrong thing... Empress Dowager, please spare me..."
Several eunuchs came to listen to the order.
"Take him down and beat him to death!" Cixi said angrily.

After a while, the old eunuch was dragged outside, and several wooden sticks kept falling down. The old eunuch's butt flew and blood, and the snow around it was red. It was very blocked and stopped moving. Several eunuchs dragged him outside the palace.
At this time, Li Lianying ran over from a distance, looked at the Empress Dowager Cixi in a hurry and said, "Empress Dowager, Empress Dowager..."
"Empress Dowager, the emperor..." Li Lianying ran into the palace and knelt on the ground.
"What? What's wrong with the emperor? Cixi is watching him, "The emperor has passed away."
"The Emperor" Cixi's eyes suddenly shed tears.
Although Cixi was quite strict with him when Tongzhi was alive, she suddenly felt sad after all.
"Empress Dowager, you must be mourned and not be too sad! You must consider the country and the country, and the Qing Dynasty cannot do without you." Li Lianying handed the silk handkerchief in a very artificial way!
"Little Lizi, I'm sad... After all, the emperor is my son. How can I not feel sorry for him? Back then, I was just a concubine. If I hadn't given birth to him, how could I become the queen mother? How could I be the queen mother with the Eastern Palace? But he was too unscrupulous. He ran outside the palace to make trouble, but he also collaborated with this outsider to plot against me. He wanted to kill me into the cold palace..." Cixi choked up.
In the evening, many people gathered in the Western Warehouse Pavilion. Military ministers and relatives from the nearest branch all received the order and entered the palace quickly. Prince Gong, Prince Chun, Prince Han, Prince Hui, Xu Tong, Weng Tongxiu, Ministers of the Interior, Yinggui, Chonglun, etc. They were all waiting anxiously outside the hall. Prince Gong and Minister of Military Affairs Li Hongzao were waiting silently.
"The Empress Dowager Huang of the Two Palaces"
The ministers immediately divided into two rows, one row was the royal family and the other row was the imperial ministers. They respectfully bowed their heads and listened to the orders.
"Please invite the two empress dowagers to the sage," everyone shouted in unison.
"Get up," Ci'an said.
"Thank you two empress dowagers"
The ministers stood up one after another, stood in order, Ci'an
The level zero god http://www.77nt/19181/ gently tidied up the cloud bun and nodded at Cixi.
Cixi did not wear a dress, she did not ascend to the imperial throne, but just stood beside her. She shed tears with sorrow, saying, "I will invite everyone to come in late at night. If you have any questions, I will ask all the princes and ministers to decide. The emperor has been ill for many days. In danger, the Qing Dynasty has been reorganized for hundreds of years, so we sisters want to ask everyone to make an idea."
Ci'an was silent for a while, wiped his tears and said, "Everyone think carefully and then make a decision. This matter is related to the rise and fall of the Qing Dynasty, so you must be careful."
At this time, in Prince Chun's mansion, Xiao Zai Tian, also known as Guan Xuqing, was sleeping in the wet nurse's arms, and suddenly woke up in a hurry with night sweats. He felt a nervous atmosphere in the air vaguely! He shouted to the wet nurse, "Hurry, change my clothes quickly! I want to see Ahma!"
Cui Xi was also shocked by him, "Little Prince, what's wrong? The prince has been called into the palace. If there is anything, let's talk about it tomorrow. Didn't the prince agree to let Master Luo teach you how to ride a horse?"
"Oh" Zai Tian let out a sigh, thinking in his heart, when he was called into the palace, would the emperor be dead? It seems that someone will come from the palace tonight to pick me up and become the most cowardly emperor in history. In the past few years, he has been thinking about how to get rid of Cixi, and then he will make arbitrary decisions, implement reforms, and new policies. Rewrite the modern history of China's humiliation. Now he is quickly entering the palace, how can he not be excited! "I'm thirsty, pour me a cup of tea," Zai Tian said to Cui Xi.
The Forbidden City was particularly quiet, as if nothing had happened, and it seemed that it was the temporary silence before the storm!! The sharp voice of Cixi came from the West Warehouse Pavilion, "Dear Palace Masters, have you considered it?"
The surroundings were silent. After a while, the Prince Fu spoke, "The emperor has no son, so he can choose a person of one year as the emperor's nephew to succeed the throne. In this way, Pulun, the eldest son of Emperor Daoguang, was the best candidate. He was handsome and had a prosperous spring and autumn, and his character and knowledge were very outstanding. What is important is that he was the eldest son and grandson of Emperor Daoguang! He met the conditions for succession."
Cixi glared at him and scolded: "The eldest son of Emperor Daoguang, Fu, Prince Yiqi, had no son. The late emperor could not bear the depression of the eldest family, so he posthumously named the eldest brother who had never met as the prince. He adopted the descendant of Emperor Qianlong's eleventh son Yongyan as his descendant. Although he was the eldest son and grandson of the eldest son of Emperor Daoguang, he was not the bloodline of Emperor Daoguang at all, but was already a distant branch of the royal family. How can he inherit the Grand Principle?"
Cixi turned her eyes to Prince Gong again and asked, "Prince Gong is the prince of the royal family and the minister of regent, why don't she speak?"
Prince Gong was stunned and hurriedly said, "The emperor is in the prime of Spring and Autumn Period, and occasionally healing diseases will be cured. The matter of establishing an heir can be temporarily suspended. Moreover, Empress Arut already has a dragon seed, so she can make a conclusion after the queen gives birth."
Cixi's face was covered with sadness, and she paused for a while and said, "Prince Gong said very much, but... it's just that the emperor... has passed away."
As soon as he finished speaking, the middle-aged man suddenly became in chaos and knelt on the ground and started crying.
"Sir, it's not the time to cry now. You need to make a conclusion about the matter of establishing a successor!" said Cixi.
"The empress is not far from the day of childbirth, so it is better not to die in secret. After the empress gives birth, if she gives birth to a prince, she will be made the heir. If she gives birth to a prince, it will not be too late to establish a new king." Prince Gong said.
Cixi paused, endured the grief, looked around everyone, and said, "The Qing Dynasty should not be the same as the lord. Besides, the queen is not a man or a woman in her belly, so how can the throne be empty all the time? The lord of the Pu generation is indecent, the elderly are mediocre and incompetent, and the young are too young. This palace believes that Prince Chun's son Zai Tian is a suitable candidate. Although he is only four years old, he is smart, handsome, and has the appearance of an emperor."
Prince Chun was shocked and broke out in a cold sweat. The princes and ministers were also shocked for a moment, and they did not expect that Cixi would make such an unexpected decision. Everyone was surprised and silent. No one dared to object, unless he wanted to die.
"The country is in troubled times, and establishing a young lord may be unfavorable to the country and the country." Prince Gong said boldly.
"It is better to choose a young king than to choose an older and incompetent person. With two palaces to raise him, Zai Tian will definitely become a wise ruler... sister, what do you think?" Cixi turned her head to Ci'an.
"Well, Prince Chun's son Zai Tian is suitable for inheriting the throne." Ci'an nodded.
"Sir, this matter is decided. Now I'll ask Li Hongzao to draft an order." A hint of relief flashed across Empress Dowager Cixi's cold face.
At this time, Prince Chun fell to his knees and collapsed into a ball. His heart was suddenly surrounded by sudden happiness and nameless panic.
"Master Qi, what's wrong with you?" Cixi asked in confusion.
"Return to the Empress Dowager, I... I feel a little uncomfortable." Prince Chun hurriedly covered up.
"Little Li Zi, get up with Prince Chun."

All the ministers stood up.
The sky gradually dawned, and soon the court sent it to various provinces:
The emperor's edict: I was examined by the emperor of the emperor, and I joined the reign of Emperor Wenzong to inherit the throne.
