Two people were talking when a little eunuch broke in and said, "The Ministry of War of Galeries Lafayette is asking for an audience outside the palace!"
Cixi frowned and said, "It’s really a restless day to invite him in."
After a short time, the priest came in and kowtowed, saying, "I received an urgent report from Shandong Province that the Boxer Rebellion in guanxian, Shandong Province gathered people to make trouble and expel foreign priests to burn the church. Recently, I even besieged the Anglican priest Bux to death. The governor of Shandong Province, Yuxian, dared not ask the court for a decision!"
Cixi was shocked and hurriedly asked, "How did such a big thing happen? How did this Yuxian do something in Shandong? It turned out that the Boxer killed foreigners, which would cause international disputes!"
He whispered, "Lafayette Yuxian sent the boxers to the local Boxers in the Ministry of War because they supported the righteous people of the imperial court and the local foreign religions in Shandong Province. By virtue of the power of the great powers, they could not oppress the people and the local people could not bear to be humiliated. Finally, the conflict intensified, which caused such bad things."
Cixi asked, "Xu Qing’s life has died now. Do you think this matter should be handled like this?"
Xu Yi replied, "In addition to this, the Lafayette minister is afraid that the British minister’s protest will come soon. Now we have to appease the British first, otherwise it is not good for us to entangle!"
Xu Yi had just finished saying that the little eunuch came running in a hurry and said, "Let’s start talking about Lafayette’s prime minister’s affairs, and the deputy minister of the yamen, Qixiu, asked for an audience."
Cixi rubbed her forehead. What happened today? One by one, these people came to the court. Forget it. Nai said, "Tell him to come in."
Qixiu walked into the room and knelt down and said, "Galeries Lafayette recently burned down the English church because of riots by a generation of boxers in guanxian, Shandong Province. His colleague killed the Anglican priest Bux, and the British minister John Newell Jordan met with me and submitted a note to me, expressing his serious protest and demanding that the perpetrators be severely punished and that all losses be compensated to the British."
Cixi’s face is gloomy, but it never rains but it pours.
Cixi asked, "Just tell me what we should do?"
Xu Yi replied, "After all, we don’t make sense about Lafayette. We killed the British, even if we didn’t give a definite account."
Cixi asked, "What to explain?"
Xu Yi hesitated and said, "Lafayette minister, we must severely punish the perpetrators and send troops to annihilate the Boxer Rebellion, and at the same time reprimand Shandong Governor Yuxian for transferring." Qixiu also quickly echoed, "Lafayette slave Xu Yi said that it is reasonable, and we must give Britain a definite answer, otherwise we are afraid that it will lead to international disputes and war!" Cixi sighed and said, "Hao Qixiu went to Yuxian Shandong as governor and ordered Feng Guozhang to temporarily act as Shandong governor to send troops to destroy the Boxer Rebellion!"
Chapter six hundred and nine The Boxer Rebellion
After hearing Cixi’s words, I felt a shock in my heart, and the tunnel was not good. How can this Lafayette recruit the Boxer Rebellion? How to drive away foreigners? How to push the baby to the big treasure?
Without a hurriedly kneel replied "galeries lafayette slave have something to say.
Cixi looked at Yi and said, "What happened to Yi?"
Without a word, she replied, "For such a thing as Lafayette’s slave, we will transfer Yuxian and then compensate the British for the loss and punish the perpetrator. The Boxer has openly played the slogan of helping the Qing Dynasty to destroy the foreign countries. It is the court’s help. If we just destroy the Boxer because of such a thing, we will be afraid that it will get cold. The slave is still wooing us, and now foreigners’ appetite is getting bigger and bigger. It is not a good idea for us to compromise blindly. It is better for us to enlist the Boxer and let them fight with foreigners to the death. We need to sit and watch and see what
Cixi was lost in thought when she heard the words. Xu Yi said, "Galeries Lafayette, Lord Yuxian is also trying to impress the Lord in public. I think we can also try to see if the Boxer Rebellion can do what we want …"
Cixi said, "Do you recognize the Boxer Rebellion?"
Without a word, he hurriedly replied, "Galeries Lafayette has openly played the slogan of helping the Qing Dynasty to destroy the foreign countries. Those boxers are simple people, and some martial arts experts have formed the leaders of the Boxers. They are also warm-blooded and benevolent people. They will definitely support them, and Galeries Lafayette, as you can see, the western powers have now developed to directly interfere in our affairs, and they are acting like emperors …"
Without saying anything, Cixi’s face became gloomy and she shouted "unbridled!"
Without a word, I also felt some ambiguity in my speech, so I stopped at once. Yes, Galeries Lafayette is the queen mother, and foreigners are too emperor. Can’t it be two people? Without a word, I can’t wait to give myself a loud mouth, so I can make mistakes.
Cixi angered, "Don’t pay attention to your dog’s mouth, so I will take your head off if I don’t care about my family!"
Yi quickly pleaded guilty and said, "I don’t want to say anything to death. Please ask Lafayette to deal with it!"
Cixi waved her hand and said, "Forget it, foreigners are really cruel. We can’t be so bossy. After all, it’s our family. They foreigners can’t impose interference, so they do it. The purpose is to go back to Beijing to report to the Shanxi Governor’s Boxer. At the same time, Feng Guozhang transferred the Beiyang New Army to put pressure on the Boxer. We should not only give them sweet dates, but also show them. Otherwise, they won’t just listen to us. Foreigners should also crack down on their arrogance!"
Qi Xiu heard this and said in great alarm, "The Queen Mother is afraid that it will arouse the anger of the great powers, especially the British Empire."
Cixi firmly replied, "Don’t say that it is aimed at appeasing the Boxer. You are responsible for summoning the leaders of the Boxer to settle down and give them some financial assistance. Just teach the Qing Dynasty to make all kinds of troubles. Now it is time for them to pay the price!"
I was overjoyed to get Cixi’s will and kowtowed quickly. With Cixi’s will, I will use the power of the Boxer to deal with the powers, and then I will be famous!
The crowd dispersed from the DPRK.
Yi hurried back to his own house and Lan returned to wait for him. When Yi came back, he quickly asked, "What happened to Brother?"
Without a big laugh "brothers become things become! I have successfully told Lafayette that he also allowed us to recruit the Boxers to use the power of the Boxers to deal with the powers and ask us to drive them away. Then there will be no obstacles for Pu Yi to ascend to the throne. Just relying on Zhang Dong, Liu Kunyi and other old guys will definitely not stop our strength! "
Lan smiled. "B-brother, it’s best to involve Prince Qing in this matter. He has always been dissatisfied with westerners, so we can draw it over. His prestige in the DPRK can make us rely on it a lot."
Without a word, he nodded and said, "Brother Qing, I will personally contact you, and a few close officials will immediately rush to all places to recruit the Boxers to organize the Boxers to tear down foreign churches and punish foreigners. Let’s brothers have a big fight this time!"
After getting the true will of Cixi, Yi never had any worries again. He personally said that the celebration of Prince Xun was unanimous, and then he personally went to Shandong Lan and went to Baoding to start appealing to the Boxer Rebellion.
Boxer leaders have long been looking forward to their slogan of helping the Qing Dynasty to destroy the foreign countries being recognized by the court, and they are naturally overjoyed to see the court appealing.
After many consultations, Yan Qin, Sanduo Zhao and Zhu Hongdeng, the three leaders of the Boxer Rebellion, were all ordered by the imperial court to be in charge of leading the Boxer Rebellion in Zhili, Shandong Province, and the leaders of various places were also ordered to be guerrilla generals and other positions to directly introduce the Boxer Rebellion into the army establishment department for reorganization.
After two months, the further integration of the Boxers broke out with even more amazing destructive power. After all, although these people have certain organizations, they are just a group of refugees who have no discipline. They wantonly destroy churches, burn and kill parishioners and priests, and at the same time bring disasters to local people.
However, at this time, without a word, it has fallen into madness. Without a word, some boxers who swam in Zhili began to recruit into the capital to enhance their strength. What’s more, now the Boxer has been supported by the imperial court, and many ordinary people have begun to join the Boxer. Not only that, the local green guards in the North Korean Armed Forces have begun to join the Boxer, which has made the Boxer more and more powerful, and even crossed the mountains and seas and poured into Mukden! It was not until the year approached that something terrible finally happened. In January, a boxer of the Boxer Regiment mixed with many Dong Fuxiang Ganjun directly attacked Dongjiaominxiang, and three foreign diplomats were beaten to death by boxers. At the same time, several foreign priests and dozens of parishioners were beaten to death. At that time, national uproar and dissatisfaction finally broke out in China!
Chapter six hundred and ten Ministers’ Meeting
The British Empire legation in Dongjiaominxiang Now, ministers from all over the world have come to John Newell Jordan, the British Minister, for advice. Beijing and John Newell Jordan are the big brothers among the foreign ministers, and his own skills are handy among the John Newell Jordan ministers.
Korner, the French minister, said urgently, "Mr. John Newell Jordan, now we can’t go in silence. Look at them. These mobs have already begun to attack the embassies of various countries. I don’t know what the chaos has become. The citizens, property and lives of our country have been greatly threatened. We must make a definite response. Otherwise, if more news comes back to China, we will face increasing pressure!"
On one side, Russian Minister Mu Dan also said, "Yes, Mr. John Newell Jordan, we must decide. Together, we will send an international note to the Qing government to let them dissolve the Boxer Rebellion and compensate us for our losses. We must severely punish the perpetrators and hand over all the ministers who safeguard the Boxer Rebellion to us!"
John Newell Jordan sink a way "is that we must act now. We will make an appointment with the Prime Minister at this time and ask him to give us a definite statement. If the Qing government doesn’t come up with a definite attitude, let’s give them a hard time! If you don’t clean them up for some years, they will become more and more arrogant! "
