C1116 The Forbidden City in a state of consternation

The entire Forbidden City was shrouded in a solemn atmosphere, diluting the rare celebrations of the New Year. Yi Yuan and the others dismounted from their horses at noon, and before the eunuchs could arrange a sedan chair for them, they quickly trotted towards the direction of the imperial harem.

After noon, they passed through the Chastity Gate on the west side of the Door of Supreme Harmony and jogged to the west side of the square. The surrounding imperial guards, eunuchs and walking officials were all stunned.

They went through the middle right gate all the way to the back right gate. Even though Yi Wu and Yi Xuan had trained and trained their bodies everyday, they still sweated profusely and their bodies were wet and sticky from the cold east wind.

After they passed the gate on the right was the Outer Court and Inner Court's Divided Sky Street, and the one facing the gate on the right was the Military Intelligence Service that was established by the father, Yongzheng. At this moment, countless Military Intelligence Service Zhang Jing was standing at the door and looking out, all of them looked like they were disheartened from their examination and criticism, as though they were silent and did not know what to do.

In the past two hundred years, they had encountered all sorts of obstacles. The north fought with the old setae, the northwest fought with Zenith, Qing Zang also fought in the distance, and the southern long-haired rebellion was also settled … Normally, the removal of the Ryukyu from the vassal lords would not cause the imperial government to be so flustered, but this time was different. The emperor was by Xiao Letian's side, how could this be good!

After he passed the right rear door, before they could even reach the entrance of Military Intelligence Service, a group of splendid eunuchs rushed out from the Inner Right Gate towards the rear palace from the east side of Military Intelligence Service, led by the big eunuch, Li Lianying. Then, the big eunuch, Zhou Daoying, followed behind them.

"Aiyo, my ancestors! Mother and father …" The two princes finally came, if you didn't come now, the Yangxin Palace would collapse. The two empress dowager almost got carried away by that rebellious attitude, how could this be alright … "

Li Lianying rushed forward and cried as tears fell from her eyes, asking closely, "What's the situation? How come I have to trouble the two eunuchs to come out personally? " Taking a careful look at Li Lianying's mouth, Li Lianying saw that there was a red handprint on her palm, it seemed like she did not serve her well.

Yi Xuan secretly took out two pieces of paper from his sleeves and with just a glance, Li Lianying and Zhou Daoying knew that it was the three thousand dollar Letian Bank's promissory note.

Yi Xuan silently stuffed the promissory note into the two eunuchs' sleeves, "What did the two Old Buddha s say? Has the imperial decree been passed down? "

Zhou Daoying sighed, "Stop asking, the claws are already numb. Just now, the empress dowager even wanted the Xishan Camp to rescue the emperor immediately. It's a good thing that the Master Weng was already here a long time ago to persuade her …"

When they were close to the Military Intelligence Service, Yi Jie stopped and asked coldly: "What are you all looking at? Could it be that an island in the East Sea could overturn the heavens? Someone, come … I want to see who has the leisure to take note of all these names! "

His single sentence had scattered the crowd of people, this group of Zhang Jing flew off like a swarm of flies, and all of them rushed back into Military Intelligence Service's rundown house.

Yi Yu turned his head and said to his subordinates, "Inform the Department of Rites and Rites. The ceremony will continue as usual and we can pay them 20% of the fees according to the rules. If they don't have enough money, we can send them to the Head Office." "This is the most important time to stabilize the human heart!"

"Tell the Ministry of Revenue and the Ministry of Internal Affairs to send me the details of the deposit immediately. If the capital city is filled with people, I'm afraid it will affect the price. We have to take precautions!"

The human heart was like this, no matter how powerful the women were normally, when they met with chaos, they would subconsciously listen to the man. Qing Dynasty, the big family, stood up straight, and suddenly, the eunuchs were no longer as anxious.

"Ah!" "This servant will do it right away …" Two eunuchs and two guards left quickly after receiving their orders.

Normally, the Inner Palace would occupy the territory after the Qian Qing sect, so it was very hard for Foreign ministers to set foot there. Especially in the Ming Dynasty, when the Emperor's orders were passed down in the sky street at the entrance to the Inner Palace, the ministers and officials would have to kneel down to receive the Emperor's orders. Even the people from the Palace could not enter from the Inner Palace.

When it came to the Qing Dynasty, the rules were slightly relaxed, especially when it was the Yongzheng. Although the inaugurated emperor should be living in the Qian Qing Palace, he didn't like the big palace. Instead, he moved his living and office space to the west side of the Yangxin Palace.

Not only that, the Yongzheng Emperor had also changed the small bungalows on the side of the street closest to the Yangxin Palace into the Military Intelligence Service. The location where the Empire's core officials were working was also moved from the Cabinet Hall next to the gate to the middle of the Forbidden City.

According to the Ming dynasty's rules of etiquette, the imperial palace could not be entered by men who were not related to each other. This was also why the Manchu did not care too much about the etiquette of the Han Chinese.

In truth, the Qing Dynasty thought that she had protected the Confucian tradition of etiquette. In reality, in the eyes of a true Chinese scholar, they were forever barbarians.

For example, Weng Zhongtang, who was standing in the East Warm Pavilion, lowered her head and looked down 45 degrees, focusing her gaze on the empty throne. From this angle, he could see the bed behind the emperor's throne, and the two women on it.

It was chaos, it was truly chaos, the yellow curtain that was hanging down to hear political affairs was still in a mess, this was too disrespectful, but Li Lianying still vividly remembered how she was beaten up just now, so Weng Tonghe would not be so foolish as to take the initiative to remind him.

He sighed in his heart, "The rules have been changed too much. It's not bad this time. Just think of me as blind!" Do not look at him unless he is being courteous, or say anything when he is being courteous! "

Very soon, the sound of footsteps could be heard. Two powerful princes rushed in from outside while their foreheads were covered in sweat from the heat.

Seeing his two uncles so nervous, the sister-in-law couldn't keep a straight face anymore, so Ci Xi quickly said, "Are you both dead people without eyes? The two princes were sweating profusely. Did they not run over from the afternoon gate? "Why don't you prepare a horse and palanquin?"

Li Lianying and the rest were so scared that they quickly kneeled on the ground, not daring to make a sound. They could only wave their hands, "We can't blame them, I was too anxious. Forget it. Let's get down to business. Where is the telegram? "Let me see …"

There was an extra group of men in the room, and the uncourteous Weng Tonghe finally spoke up, "My two lords, the telegram is here! Other than that, I would suggest for Yang Zhi to come over as well. He has followed Xiao Letian before, so he should still be able to give some advice on the matters of the Ryukyu … "

"Office... Just do it, old man, you are right, quickly send someone to fetch Yang Zhi! "

Ci An was silent for a long time before finally speaking, "Whenever there is a need for peace of mind, please take your seat first! "This old man has been standing there for a long time …" Everyone quickly cupped their hands in thanks before they all sat down.

However, it was also strange that no one had noticed the abnormality of the apricot-colored curtain. It had obviously been put down and left open.

If he wanted Xiao Letian to know what had happened today, he would definitely sigh endlessly, and perhaps even let out a trace of nostalgia for his previous life.
