C1790 temporarily avoiding sharp rays of light

"Do you know what happened in the days after you left the capital? Hehe … I really did not expect that the situation would become this chaotic, and that even he would jump out … "

The things that Ci An had said had happened in the past. Ci An was not the useless empress dowager, and just because this woman did not have much desire for power, it did not mean that she did not understand.

To put it simply, this woman did not love power, but it did not mean that she did not love power. It did not mean that she did not have the power to control everything.

After all, she was the renowned Empress Dowager of the East, the legal wife of Xian Feng, the woman brought in by the imperial palace through the main entrance. Her fame was far above Ci Xi, and the Chinese Officer who were educated under the Confucian clan's tutelage held Ci An as their true master, even the various Mongol tribes admired him a lot.

Ci An had always been very strong in persuading the various tribes in Mongolia. Many of the Mongolian tribes sent their elites to participate in the battle under the coordination of Ci An.

Following the sudden appearance of Xiao Letian, the situation of the imperial government became more and more chaotic. Although the middle period of Tongzhi's life was not recorded in history, and although it was indeed a recovery period, there were still more serious political massacres occurring.

Ci An was very worried about this trend. She even felt that the Da Qing Empire was heading towards a serious civil war, not with the participation of the Chinese, but with the Manchu as a group.

It was the nature of a politician to prepare for a rainy day, Ci An personally arranged for Fu Qing to set up the reformist, but in truth, Ci An did not care about keeping his old ways, he just wanted to use all kinds of power to balance the situation.

With one hand, she arranged for Fu Qing to go to the north while with the other, she began to place her trusted aides and officials at the mouth of the Zhang Family. She started to frequently contact the princes and princes of Mongolia.

Ci An was secretly accumulating her strength in the Great Qing Northern Region. She was extremely careful not to show it at all, but all his efforts had been rewarded.

A group of Horse Bandits suddenly appeared outside the mouth. They numbered around 500 people, and occupied the Harahuusu River to the north of the Zhangjiakou. They even wandered to the Yellow Flag Ranch near Chahar.

Furthermore, the officials of the Eastern Alliance kept a close eye on them. Gradually, these people aroused the vigilance of the General of the Reach and the leaders of the Mongolia tribes of the Four Eastern Alliance.

When these people carefully probed, they unexpectedly discovered a shocking secret. The officials who protected the Horse Bandits were more or less related to a person in the capital.

"He is our capital's Fifth Master, Yi Cong!"

"What!" Fu Qing's tiger body shook, almost knocking Ci An to the ground and smashing his buttocks into eight pieces. "Fifth Prince? This, this, this... How is that possible? "

Amongst the eight flags of the capital, who wouldn't pick a big brother with a big thumb when they heard the name "Fifth Master"! Eating a bowl of tofu flower and giving a gold ingot to the poor woman, he then directly broke his third leg … The Fifth Master had done this many times.

Even when the title of the Fifth Master was mentioned in the capital, people still felt admiration from the bottom of their hearts. It was not because of his identity as the Crown Prince.

If this kind of person wanted to fight and cause trouble, he would beat the head of the steward of the Wang family, and break the legs of some unfilial grandson, Fu Qing would believe this news, but now that Ci An said that the Fifth Elder had the intention to enter, Fu Qing did not believe it.

"Haha …" Stupid! "Don't believe me. Just listen to me …"

Ci An took out a handkerchief and wiped the sweat off the little grudge's head, "Later on, I let people inspect carefully, and only then did I find out that the rebellious Yang Zhi under Xiao Letian's command is very close to Yi Cong, and that there is also a group of people who are part of the capital who are related to him …"

"In the crisis of the Notes in Jiangnan and in the stock market, my fifth brother has made a huge fortune … It's no wonder that someone like Yang Zhi who has followed Xiao Letian would help out.

"He's rich, and he even recruited some martial artists to secretly train his troops. Although there are only five hundred of them, the meaning behind this is too obvious …" "He is waiting for an opportunity. He has already calculated that there will be a huge change in the future. He is preparing ahead of time!"

"Even Fifth Brother, the street hoodlum, was moved. One can only imagine how chaotic it is outside …" I really did not expect this! That trash, Zhou Daoying, has been scouting for me everyday.

Even before he finished his sentence, he only saw Eunuch Zhou Daoying jogging and kneeling on the stone floor, "This servant is the trash, this servant is really useless …" But this servant has been truly diligent, I definitely haven't slacked off at all! " After which, he kowtowed.

The Qing San Ye hurriedly tried to smooth things over. "We can't blame the steward. Actually, even if I ran around outside, I still hadn't heard anything about Lord Fifth. This means that Lord Fifth hid his abilities well, and this also proves that the empress dowager's wrist is high …"

"Bootlick …" Ci An rolled his eyes at him, then unknowingly rubbed his butt against Fu Qing's thigh. The full buttocks slid down, and at that time, Fu Qing was bleeding from his nose.

"Hehe …" Empress Dowager... Hehe, let's just say what we should do … Don't keep me in suspense... "Hiss …"

Without hiding anything, Ci An immediately threw out his own plan, "Before Zai Chun is in charge of his own affairs, none of us are allowed to have any conflicts with the west, including General Gui Zi Liu and the others, pick up your tail!"

"From today onwards, I will pretend to be sick. Let the Taiyuan Hospital prescribe some medicine, just say that I have a fever, have a heart fire and need to rest up …" It would be best to say that I should go to Chengde to take shelter during the summer, since I has to leave this place to meet with calamity! "

"Fu Qing, you stay in the capital. I will lead you to meet Fifth Prince. Our families don't have many soldiers, so we can just stick together. In the future, we can deal with the great change …"

"He, Yi Cong doesn't dare to disobey me, if he doesn't, don't blame I for shaking out his secret … "Don't worry, he will still give face to my sister-in-law!"

"From now on, I have to save more money and food, and raise more soldiers …" When Zai Chun comes to power, we must have soldiers protecting him! "

Fu Qing frowned, "Would the Prince allow the empress dowager to go to the Chengde? Could he not feel it at all? "His underlings have quite a few spies as well …"

"It's alright, I still has one last move … Immediately call Ceng Guofan and tell him that he has been recuperating for a long time. Since the weather is warm now, shouldn't it be time for him to take over? "

"Hehehe …" Do you think that the attention of the Japs would be given to us if we put them in the capital? "Hahaha …"
