Li Lianying, who was frightened, even forgot to help Cixi who had fainted. It was not until the screams of the eunuchs and palace maids around him woke him up that Li Lianying screamed in his voice: "Go and ask the imperial doctor, no, go and invite Doctor Xue! Go and report to the emperor!"

Zai Tian, ​​who had not walked very far, arrived quickly. At this time, Cixi had been carried onto the bed and was still unconscious. Zai Tian immediately ordered the eunuchs who accompanied him to summon the kings, ministers, ministers of military affairs, and ministers of the ministry to enter the palace.

Soon, Xue Fuchen was almost carried in by two eunuchs. Seeing that Cixi was biting her teeth, her face was as bright as gold paper, and her lower body was bleeding, she immediately applied a golden needle, temporarily stopped the blood, and then prescribed a prescription and handed it to Li Lianying for medicine. Li Lianying took it and didn't look at it, so she handed it to the eunuch beside her to decoct the medicine. At this time, Zai Tian stepped forward and asked, "How is the Empress Dowager in Xue Qing's family?"

Only then did Xue Fuchen be able to salute the emperor: "I've been in a hurry just now, please forgive me."

Zai Tian waved his hand impatiently, "It's now, so what are you doing? What should you do? How about the Queen Mother's condition? You should tell me quickly."

Xue Fuchen said tremblingly: "The Empress Dowager, the Empress Dowager, has a congestion of liver and spleen, has poor heart meridians, and has continuous leakage. I have used golden needles to only get blood. I have to wait until the medicine is used to stabilize the condition. Only after tonight can I carefully diagnose and treat it."

After hearing Xue Fuchen's answer, Zai Tian looked at him deeply, and then ordered: "The Empress Dowager is seriously ill and is afraid she will not be able to attend the court in the near future. Please ask Prince Gong, Prince Li, Prince Chun, Li Hongzao, Weng Tonghe and the Governor Li Hongzhang in Beijing to enter the palace to discuss the rules of the court's affairs in the past few days."

At this time, the empress dowager was unconscious, Li Lianying was distracted, and the sky and earth were vast in the palace, so of course the emperor was the greatest. After receiving the emperor's order, a young eunuch immediately went out to pass the order.

Before, the princes and ministers had already asked the imperial edicts in front of the palace. If the monarchs were passed on again, it would be very fast. Soon, the six ministers came to Changchun Palace.

Seeing the unconscious Cixi, the ministers naturally panicked again and surrounded Xue Fuchen and Li Lianying to question it.

Zai Tian said: "Your family, the Queen Mother of the Holy Mother, has been working hard for days, and has become ill in bed. Now Xue Qing family and the Imperial Doctors are doing their best to treat it, but I may not be able to get better in the past few days. The government affairs are frequent and should not be abandoned for a day. You are all the people of the country and have always been dependent on the Queen Mother. How to handle the government in the future? I want to hear your opinions."

This is the first time Zai Tian talked to the ministers about the handling of political affairs. When the ministers saw Zai Tian’s speech was clear and clear, they were all moved.

At this time, Li Hongzhang was the first to speak: "The Queen Mother of the Holy Mother has been unwell in the past two years, but at that time the Queen Mother of the Queen Mother was still healthy, and the court affairs were decided by the Queen Mother of the Queen Mother. Now the Queen Mother of the Queen Mother of the Queen Bintian, and the Queen Mother of the Queen Mother of the Queen Mother of the Queen Mother of the Queen Mother of the Queen Mother of the Queen Mother of the Queen Mother of the Queen Mother of the Queen Mother of the Queen Mother of the Queen Mother of the Queen Mother of the Queen Mother of the Queen Mother of the Queen Mother of the Queen Mother of the Queen Mother of the Queen Mother of the Queen Mother of the Queen Mother of the Queen Mother of the Queen Mother of the Queen Mother of the Queen Mother of the Queen Mother of the Queen Mother of the Queen Mother of the Queen Mother of the Queen Mother of the Queen Mother of the Queen Mother of the Queen Mother of the Queen Mo

After hearing Li Hongzhang's words, Zai Tian was shocked. Unexpectedly, Li Hongzhang would stand up so clearly to support his ruling court. He thought that the first shot would be Weng Tonghe.

Prince Li heard this and said, "I'm afraid it's not appropriate. The slave is brave. Although the emperor is talented and wise, he is still in his studies. At this time, he may have abandoned his studies. It would be better for the ministers of each department to discuss the court's affairs and hand it over to the palace, and the empress dowager will decide."

Weng Tonghe immediately said: "As Prince Li said, the emperor's talented people do not have to make a lot of money in their studies. As long as they take one or two hours a day to study, they will probably not be able to miss anything. However, the Empress Dowager, even if Xue Fuchen takes medicine properly and the Empress Dowager will recover soon, but the illness is just recovering, how can he work hard again? It is because the Empress Dowager is in heavy government affairs that he fell ill."

Weng Tonghe was the imperial teacher. When the emperor took power, he must be the one who benefited, so he naturally spared no effort to promote Zaitian to the court.

Prince Gong Yi and Cixi have always been dissatisfied with each other. If Cixi could relax the government, Yi would be reluctant to ask for it, but he did not want to listen to the young emperor in everything. After all, Zai Tian is only twelve years old now. Then he said: "What Weng Zhongtang said is somewhat reasonable. The Queen Mother's current health is indeed not suitable for labor. It is only Prince Li's concerns that he cannot ignore it. It is better to transfer the political affairs to the Military Affairs Office for the time being, and the Minister of Military Affairs will join the princes and princes to make a decision together."

Yi was in charge of the Military Affairs Office, and he was taking power for himself. He wanted to be the regent as early as the early years of Tongzhi, but there were two empress dowagers who could not get what they wanted. When he saw the opportunity at this time, how could he not come?

However, everyone had already seen his thoughts clearly, and how could he fulfill his intentions?

Yihuan was still worried that Cixi would be treated back, so she was still cautious and did not dare to support her son in public. However, he would never hand over the government to Prince Gong. No matter how good the two of them were in private, there was no reason to be said when it came to imperial power.

Weng Tonghe did not have any concerns about Yi Huan and immediately said: "All the government affairs of the court are handled by the Military Affairs Office. The Sixth Prince, as the foreman, and Bao Zhu as the help of the arm, can take charge of the government affairs. But I don't know where the emperor will be placed at that time?"

Although Weng Tonghe's words were sharp, it was a fact that Prince Gong dominated the military office. At this time, Li Hongzao and Prince Gong were in the military office. Prince Li and Li Hongzhang had good personal relationships with Prince Gong and Prince Chun, but it was not convenient to speak openly at this time. Only Weng Tonghe, who clearly opposed the opposition of the carriage and horse, handed over the government affairs to the military office for handling, and fought with Yi Xin. For a moment, the atmosphere suddenly became a little nervous.

Just as the two were arguing and the other four were planning their plans, the unknown young emperor suddenly said, "I just heard what you said, and they were all old and conspiring to the country. I feel comforted. In my opinion, the empress dowager may not be healthy, and all matters will naturally be decided by the empress dowager. However, before that, it is still important to take the Empress Dowager's body. The empress dowager is not convenient to attend the court, and I am still young, so I completely push the state affairs. It is also very inappropriate to give the Military Affairs Office. It would be better to follow the example of the late emperor, including Prince Gong, Prince Chun, Prince Li, two Li Zhongtang and Master Weng, jointly acting in government affairs and discussing the problem. If there is something wrong, you have different opinions, but if two people oppose it, you will submit them to the Empress Dowager. When the Empress Dowager is more energetic, you will then hand over the Empress Dowager to decide. As for the court's employment, military disasters and affairs involving Western countries, the court's discussions are still the main focus. What do you think?"

The little emperor's words were clearly organized and well-behaved. The Qing Dynasty had precedents of ministers in Shunzhi and Xianfeng dynasties. Although none of the ministers had a good ending, Cixi might not have died at this time. She just discussed the government affairs temporarily. It was just that the General Affairs Office expanded the rules, and it was not impossible.

Moreover, at this time, when Cixi was in an unknown condition, this suggestion seemed to be the easiest to accept for everyone.

The six people looked at each other, and then suddenly realized that the six people who were summoned by the emperor were exactly three Man and three Han. Among the six people, King Gong and Li Hongzao belonged to the Military Affairs Office. King Chun and Weng Tonghe were naturally the personal sects, while Li Hongzhang and Prince Li could be regarded as neutral sects. Among the three princes, there was another imperial sect, one court sect, and one neutral sect; among the three Han ministers, Weng Tonghe was considered an imperial party. Although Li Hongzhang was not a military sect, he was dissatisfied with Weng Tonghe and was the head of the governor and governor. He held the heavy power, but the Qingliu Li Hongzao became a neutral sect.

No matter how the six people look at it, they are in a state of balance, and such a balance is exactly the situation that should be guaranteed most at this time.

At this time, the medicine had been boiled, and everyone pried open Cixi's mouth and slowly poured the medicine down.

Before, Cixi used a golden needle, and the blood in her lower body had stopped. Now she has taken the medicine again. Seeing that everything she should have done, Xue Fuchen had to leave it to fate if it could work. So he and the imperial physicians went outside the hall to wait, and no one dared to sleep, so he was just consuming it.

As for Zai Tian, ​​there were eunuchs who served him and went to the side hall to rest.

Outside, Yi and others conveyed the intention of discussing temporary regent with the emperor to the ministers waiting. At the same time, they informed the empress dowager who was unable to enter the palace to pay tribute. The Empress Dowager was fine now, so they sent everyone back. However, Yi and the six others could not leave. They had to wait for Cixi to wake up and report the decision they had discussed with the emperor before they could be finished.

The few of them had their own guards and eunuchs to serve them and had dinner, and they were sleeping in the military guard room.

At the second half of the night, several old men were confused and heard a little eunuch calling. When everyone opened the door, they saw that the little eunuch knocked on the ground: "Everyone, hurry up and enter the palace, the Empress Dowager, the Empress Dowager, have passed away!"

When the few people were shocked, they suddenly lost all sleepiness and didn't care about their image. They put on their boots and ran towards Changchun Palace.

When they arrived in the palace, the eunuchs and palace maids had already been in chaos, and no one reported it, so the six people entered the Changchun Palace.

Emperor Guangxu was already here, and Xue Fuchen and several imperial physicians knelt on the ground. The six people also knelt down and asked what was going on.

After receiving the emperor's approval, Xue Fuchen said tremblingly: "I and several other imperial physicians have been waiting in the side hall. In the middle of the night, General Manager Li sent someone to call and said that the Empress Dowager, the Empress Dowager, was in danger of illness and was not enough. We hurried over and saw that the Empress Dowager's lower body was bleeding again. He quickly applied a golden needle, but he still couldn't stop it. He hurriedly took the medicine. The Empress Dowager had no breathing and could no longer take the medicine..."

After saying that, he kowtowed to the imperial physicians and apologized.

After hearing this, the six people looked at each other and Yi said, "Master, can you let the servants take a look?"

Zai Tian closed his eyes and waved his hand without saying a word. The six of them supported each other and entered the bedroom tremblingly.

Before the bloody smell in the bedroom had dissipated, Li Lianying lay on the ground, crying so hard that she was out of breath. Several people walked forward gently, and saw Nara lying flat on the bed with a pale face. Yi plucked up the courage to come forward and tried his breath. He was already exhausted, so he turned around and nodded at the other five people. Without saying a word, the six left the bedroom.

After coming out, the six people knelt in front of Guangxu again, begging the emperor to mourn and take care of the dragon body. At the same time, they asked the emperor to tell the emperor what to do about the Queen Mother's funeral.

Guangxu said in a deep voice: "Please follow the old rules of the mother and queen." Then he said to Xue Fuchen and others: "You should do your best, so let's go out of the palace."

Several imperial physicians kowtowed and surrendered. Although they heard the emperor say that they would not blame him, they were still frightened. They didn't know when their heads would move. Now they can leave the palace under the orders and come to arrange their funeral with their families.

The remaining six ministers were in the palace and began to arrange eunuchs. The palace maids took charge of the empress dowager first. Then the six men asked the emperor for gifts, and they wanted to leave the palace to convene the Ministry of Rites, the Ministry of Revenue and other ministers to discuss and arrange the Queen Mother's funeral.

He saw the six ministers away, and it was dawn. Emperor Guangxu, who was sleepless, did not return to his bedroom, but walked up to the metropolis with his escort.

In the early morning, the sun rose from the east, and there was a golden light on the Jinshui River. Looking at the city under your feet that was gradually rejuvenating, a burst of pride suddenly rose in Guangxu's heart. The pressure that had been wandering in his heart for a long time disappeared at this time.

Yes, that pressure used to be like a huge rock, no, it was like a mountain, which made me breathless.

That day, I was playing in my yard, but suddenly fell and fell into a coma. When I woke up, everything changed. The original emperor suddenly died, but I became the emperor. The original Ama became a minister, and my mother could not meet, but she had an imperial mother and a "dad".

Thinking of this, Zaitian felt chills in his heart!

How did I think of such a name? It was so disgusting.

It was that woman, the pressure she brought to herself, forcing herself to temporarily give up her dignity.

When I first saw her, a complex emotion filled Zai Tian’s young mind. It contained anger, horror, disgust, joy, and hatred. No one knew that a child who was only four years old would have so many, such complex emotions in his mind.

Even Zai Tian himself didn't know why these emotions were. He didn't even know what emotions were. In his eyes, outsiders could only see a young child's confusion about the unknown.

But they do exist and guided Xiao Zaitian to make many decisions.

For example, please please her, like killing her.

He still clearly remembers that during the time he first entered the palace, he had to wake up from nightmares every day. Every nightmare was killed by that woman. So much so that during the day, he did not dare to approach the person who claimed to be his relatives.

It was in such a torment that an idea gradually became clearer--you can't wait for her to kill myself, I should kill her first.

But at that time, in Zaitian's small head, he didn't even know what the concept of "kill" was.

But he knew how to save his life. So he subconsciously tried his best to please that woman, including another emperor's mother, so that he could live a better life and a safer life.

Until one day, he had the opportunity to meet those people outside the palace. He asked the French minister for a drug.

During the three years he lived with that woman, he knew that she had always had a disease. This disease was very strange. It was repeated coughing, blood in the sputum, accompanied by chest bloating and chest pain, mainly between the intercostals and chest areas. In addition, there were long-term symptoms of intermittent diarrhea and bloody stools. What was particularly special was that her menstruation was extremely abnormal and she often had symptoms of continuous bleeding. Once, she fainted due to bleeding during court, and even the court officials in the hall could smell the smell of blood.

Zaitian didn't know what kind of disease this was, but he knew that in those foreigners' countries, there was a liquid with a strong fragrance. Although this oily liquid remaining from the raw materials for producing gas had a strong aroma, it could aggravate Cixi's condition.

He still didn't know how he knew this kind of thing. In short, this idea suddenly appeared in his mind at that time, and then he got this liquid through his own method and gave it to the queen mother.

After giving this "gift", he was worried for a while, worried that others would discover the secret. However, the empress dowager not only did not discover it, but instead fell in love with this gift and used it for a long time and enjoyed it.

Zaitian didn't expect that the reason why Cixi couldn't live without this perfume was because the liquid smell was strong - she needed this perfume to cover up the bloody smell on her body.

Since that time, Cixi has suffered from a heart attack in the court that time - she always feels that there is a bloody smell on her body, especially when she has a period of menstruation. The fragrance of that perfume is strong, which can just cover up the bloody smell on her body, so Cixi keeps it with her.

Finally, she fell ill again and was out of control.

Originally, I thought things would end like this, but I didn't expect that the turmoil would be turbulent. A doctor who came out of nowhere actually discovered the secret of perfume. He actually gave the Queen Mother a treatment, and clearly asked to replace it with another essential oil extracted from jasmine flowers. He also encouraged Cixi to stay outdoors often to avoid contact with the perfume smell in the room.

Later, Zaitian found out that the doctor was named Xue Fuchen.

Under Xue Fuchen's treatment, Cixi miraculously gradually got better. This was undoubtedly a great thing for Cixi, but for Zai Tian, ​​it was a great sorrow.

He can only find another way to find another opportunity.

But unexpectedly, a miracle happened again. The mother Queen Mother Ci'an died suddenly!

In the heart of the little emperor, although both empress dowagers were superior, he had no unnecessary feelings for the Empress Dowager Ci'an who raised him - neither love nor hatred.

So he did not do anything special to the woman who raised him. Ci'an's death was a complete accident.

But Ci'an's unexpected death gave Cixi a hope of monopolizing power. So, driven by the desire for power, she began to deal with the government affairs day and night regardless of Xue Fuchen's opinions. At the same time, in order to maintain her spirit and make herself excited, she used the original perfume again.

This time, no one can save her anymore.

But he was still nervous. Doctor Xue had created miracles before. What if he could still create miracles this time and save Cixi from death?

Xiao Zaitian knew that she could not take risks and waited, so he had to take action to ensure that the woman died.

Now, this woman is finally dead. After moving out of this mountain, the little emperor felt extremely relaxed. Just like the city shining under the rising sun, it seemed to be rejuvenated.

After getting off the Wumen Gate Tower, Zaitian walked slowly and firmly towards the imperial city, towards the Qianqing Palace, and towards the starting point of his own rights.

When the little emperor climbed the morning gate tower, Li Lianying kept kneeling in the side hall of Changchun Palace, not daring to move.

He has been in the palace for almost thirty years and has been the chief supervisor for more than ten years. He has been used to seeing Ermi in the palace and various dirty means of fighting for power and profit. Including himself, he also used means to get rid of An Dehai. He became the chief supervisor at the age of 21.

But what happened tonight still made him feel cold all over his body.

The old illness of the empress dowager suddenly broke out. Xue Fuchen and the imperial physicians arrived immediately. The little emperor also rushed to pay his respects. Everything was normal. The empress dowager used Dr. Xue's medicine, and his condition was slightly stable, but he was still in a coma. Dr. Xue and the imperial physicians were waiting outside the hall and ready to rescue him at any time. The emperor was filial and wanted to serve his left and right, so he was arranged to rest in the side hall on the left. Only a few palace maids and Li Lianying were taking care of the empress dowager in the bedroom.

After a while, the emperor came in alone to visit the empress dowager. He looked at the empress dowager who was still unconscious, and then asked himself a question: "Can the empress dowager wake up?"

Li Lianying quickly replied: "With Doctor Xue here, there should be no problem."
To be continued...
