C969 Struggle for power

As a mother, she naturally wished for her son to become a king who could wield power like Kang Xi and dryad, but as a statesman, she had to consider the balance of power in the imperial court.

Ci Xi was very clear that the Eight Banner System in the Great Qing Empire was innately restricted by the imperial power. Otherwise, there would not be people from the three dynasties of Kang Yong Qian causing trouble for the eight kings to negotiate with them.

Master Kang Xi, Master Yongzheng and the rest of the dryad, to the rest of the people, it would be easy to say that he was the greatest emperor of all time.

When Grandpa Kang Xi was in power, he killed a sharp knife with the Ao Bai Group before turning half of China into mush. Only then did the Great Qing Empire's power become concentrated, but it did not last for many years before Kang Xi's sons followed their example and started to divide up the imperial power.

Yongzheng was even more ruthless. In these 13 years, not only did he kill all the brothers that he was against previously, he even created a forbidden zone, which allowed the officials to gather food as one, stripping the Chinese Officer of their thousands of years of power. As a result, the Yongzheng had the most wild history, and the Yongzheng really did not play any good roles in these stories.

Ci Xi was very clear that the stories in the wild history were all fake, but the fake stories were also spread around by people, because your Yongzheng had indeed ruined the jobs of many people, and killed many people. Those people wouldn't look at things from the strategic level of the empire, they only cared about their own interests.

As for the age of dryad, the country's power had reached its peak. It was a magnificent sight of flowers and cooking oil, but was there no hidden dangers in this flourishing world?

Of course there was. When the dryad was tired of politics in her later years, she would run rampant with corruption and extravagance in the imperial government, causing him to spend most of her accumulated national power on the palaces and pavilions. The Yuan Ming Yuan of the Ten Thousand Orchids Garden was officially completed during the dryad years.

When Jia Qing came to court, if he didn't earn a huge sum of money from He Heshen, he would probably make a huge loss in a few years' time.

Ci Xi was very clear in his heart, although these Imperial palace s were all talking about how good Kang Yong was, but they did not have such a plan in their hearts. If they had another strong Monarch, they would definitely cry to death if they continued to torture them.

In the real history, why did Ci Xi control the Great Qing Dynasty for so many years, and why did the entire Manchu Group listen to her. On one hand, it was because this woman was capable, but on the other hand, this woman clearly knew what the Manchu Group officials wanted.

Yes, she could give them whatever they wanted. Only by doing this would she be able to get the support of many people, and her position would be very stable.

Ci Xi was, after all, a woman, so her road to power would never reach its limits. All of the court officials knew that if Ci Xi wanted to have a stable seat, he would have to share the benefits with them.

Power and money were the same as everyone else. Leader, who knew how to split them equally with his subordinates, was naturally likeable, and a monarch with power would definitely eat more and take more. When everyone's interests were harmed, what was the use of having such a monarch?

She couldn't help but admit that her son had already chosen a path that terrified the entire Eight Flag Group. They were afraid that Zai Chun, who was holding onto a strong army, would regain control, and they were afraid that the authority they had already divided up would be taken back.

"Empress Dowager, if His Majesty is determined to keep his word, then there are many things that I, as a Uncle Wang, cannot control …" To put it bluntly, even if I had some conflicts with His Majesty, I only wanted to teach him a lesson in the end … "

"But if I don't lead this situation and if the future antagonist is someone with even more ambition, then the situation won't be good for me anymore. Even if I end up wasting time …" It's not impossible! "

Yi Xuan was already dumbstruck when he heard it. This Daoguang's seventh son was not someone who showed his edge clearly. Right now, he felt that hearing these words was already a crime.

"Then what should we do? Then what should he do... His Majesty was the late emperor's only son, so there was no ruler in the entire Qing Dynasty that was as pure and pure as Tongzhi. This was the Lord of ZTE! It's our hope to make a comeback in the clear! "

Yi Yu glared at his little brother. "You're wrong!" It is the hope of our Xiluo's family, not the hope of the entire Eight Banners, for these two hundred years, the families have already decayed and stank, they will only fight for name and profit, they only know that the free money is the best, and even if they get the benefits, they do not want to be restricted! "

"Tell me, why do you think His Majesty would want to recruit all the ungrateful children from the large families to the Ryukyu for training? Do you still not understand? If Xiao Letian didn't have that idea, I would have ripped my eyes out … His Majesty has probably been bewitched by Xiao Letian to understand all of this. With the impulsive force of a young man, how could he not fight head on? "

"Three years later, when His Majesty really returns with several tens of thousands of troops, he will immediately be caught up in a huge, indiscernible net! Perhaps no one will raise a flag to rebel and use a large army, but harming people with hidden arrows is even more terrifying. In this Forbidden City, it's not only the eunuchs and maids who die in grievance! "

"Ever since the battle began, haven't a few suspicious points of the emperor died? As his uncle, if I don't let him think of a plan for himself, then he will be in danger! "

As the saying goes, care causes chaos, and Ci Xi had also softened his tone, "Then according to what do you think we should do?"

"There's no way around it. His Majesty is currently under Xiao Letian's control, and various countries in the west are paying attention to His Majesty's journey of study. It's impossible for them to forcefully seize it back, so they can only wait for three years …"

"Three years later, I will ask His Majesty to integrate his imperial guards into the Xishan Camp. His Majesty will have to stay low-key for at least four to five years, slowly learn how to handle the affairs of the imperial court, and slowly cultivate his influence … Personal government is not something that can be freely exercised after a ceremony. That is the path to disaster! "

Ci Xi sighed and said, "With Zai Chun's personality, how could it be possible?!"

"That's possible! Three years later, His Majesty would only be 16 years old. He would have plenty of time to study and train a group of trusted aides with a low profile for four to five years. By then, he would also be in his early twenties. Age is His Majesty's greatest advantage! "

"Chendi will resolve it! If His Majesty insists on not realizing it, then I will forcefully disband His Majesty's imperial guards! At that time, I hope the empress dowager can understand the Chendi's painstaking efforts … "
