Chapter 14: No red envelopes for swords, guts and hearts)
If you don’t have an ambush, don’t worry about being surrounded by a large army when you go out, and then you will be shot to death no matter how fast you are. Then you will naturally go down first and get the benefits.
Cao Zixia got up, stretched her muscles and bones and was about to go downstairs, but before she could move, suddenly, a subtle aura appeared on his side, and Cao Zixia was about to take it almost subconsciously withdrew it.
The subtle aura was not a mysterious thing like murderous aura or bloody smell, but just a warrior's sense of danger.
There was someone on the side who was enough to threaten him.
Turning his head and going to the side, two figures are slowly walking towards him.
The first one was a gentle scholar who looked gentle. He wore a jacket and a yin and yang head, which actually made Cao Zixia feel handsome. Behind him, half of his body was followed by a very energetic man.
No matter how you look at the two of you, you should be the ingenious man who can give people a sense of threat, but Cao Zixia's eyes were frozen on the scholar at the first time.
This handsome, gentle, and gentle scholar made Cao Zixia feel like she was facing Wang Wu.
No, this scholar gave him even the feeling that he was more dangerous than Wang Wu.
"In the next, Tan Sitong..."
When Cao Zixia looked at the scholar, the latter held his fists and bowed to Cao Zixia at the same time.
Tan Sitong...
Cao Zixia was slightly shocked. There were six gentlemen in the reform of the late Qing Dynasty, but the most famous of them was this king. The other six gentlemen, along with all the reformers, were either passively arrested or voluntarily escaped. But this king obviously had the opportunity to escape, but he left his death generously because he wanted to wake up the world.
"Reforms of all countries are formed by bleeding. Today, China has not heard of any bleeding caused by reforms. This country is not prosperous. For some, please start with the Sitong."
In later generations or many people, this sentence has only been adapted from a certain movie, "There are all bloody and sacrifices in various countries. Now China's reforms have caused bloody sacrifices, and it starts with our own generations!" However, few people know that the original words come from the mouth of the scholar in front of us.
This is a patriot, a real patriot, but this person's behavior pattern is probably different from that of himself.
Cao Zixia sighed helplessly and looked at Tan Sitong.
"I will beat the bear below to death anyway..."
Cao Zixia didn't wait for Tan Sitong to speak again and pointed to the British strongman on the ring below.
Although he didn't know what conspiracy was in the ring, since Tan Sitong, who should be busy with reform and saving the country, are coming, the conspiracy is definitely not a trivial matter.
However, no matter big or small, there is no difference for Cao Zixia, because he knows that future history and reforms cannot be achieved, and the Qing Dynasty cannot be continued, and it will be rotten to the bottom.
In this way, he naturally could not give up on his chance to gain thoughts for nothing.
"Hmph, how many guns do you think are waiting for you around the ring..."
Facing Cao Zixia's words, before Tan Sitong could speak, the ingenious man behind him had already spoken first.
"Kongting, give me a face..."
Tan Sitong looked at the person behind him and smiled apologetically at Cao Zixia. Then he reached out and patted the man on the shoulder. After the latter groaned disdainfully, he turned to Cao Zixia again.
"Not long ago, Ronglu sent a letter to the Queen Mother, who wanted to use the foreigners to destroy Yihe Fist. Then, Ronglu met with the British fleet commander Seymour in Tianjin. I don't know what they talked about, but after that, the British strong men set up a ring in Tianjin, while Ronglu commanded the governments and the garrisons around Tianjin to strictly prevent and control the deaths and prevent any kung fu masters from entering Tianjin, except for you..."
Tan Sitong comforted the man behind him and looked at Cao Zixia slowly speaking, "I have reason to believe that Ronglu and the British planned to use the battle to make tricks to start a war, because Ronglu did not want to see Yihequan standing on the side of the emperor and become a force supporting reforms, while the British hoped to restrain the Germans in the Qing Dynasty to alleviate the pressure on war between them and the Germans in other places..."
Seymour...
Listening to Tan Sitong's words, Cao Zixia's eyes changed slightly. His history was not good, but he still knew what the commander of the Eight-Nation Alliance was named at the beginning, and it was this Seymour.
This conspiracy is related to the incident of the Eight-Nation Alliance.
Cao Zixia's hand holding the knife tightened slightly. Although the incident in the Gengzi year seemed to have suffered the most damage was the Qing Dynasty, because, facts have proved that even without the Eight-Nation Alliance, the treasures of the Forbidden City could not be all in the hands of the New China.
However, for any passionate man, the incident in the Year of Gengzi is an absolute shame. This is not what the song later sang in Beijing welcomes you, and there is no ordinary people helping the escalator of the great powers. Cao Zixia didn't know who was so stupid and could speak the words of the people helping the escalator of the great powers.
Cao Zixia has read countless records of the Gengzi incident in later generations. If it were not for the small number of Eight-Nation Alliance troops that invaded Peiping, it would definitely be a vicious incident that was not inferior to any massacre.
"Seimore, is it down there..."
Cao Zixia glanced at Tan Sitong and spoke slowly.
Although I don’t know if killing Seymour would prevent the incident in the Gengzi year, Cao Zixia still wanted to give it a try.
"idiot……"
Following Cao Zixia's words, the man behind Tan Sitong sneered again.
With this sentence, Cao Zixia's eyes suddenly looked over with a dangerous aura. Not to mention that he now has unique skills, even in his previous life, as an ordinary person, if he met someone else's words like this, he would have to fight.
"Kongting..."
Tan Sitong immediately saw Cao Zixia's anger, turned around and shouted angrily at the man behind him, who had no choice but to curl his lips and turn his head.
"Don't be angry, but killing Seymour is really useless. This is a game between a great power like Britain and Germany. Although Seymour is the commander of the British fleet in the Qing Dynasty, he has absolutely no weight in such a major event... and the only way we can avoid war is to try our best to avoid letting the great powers find excuses to start a war..."
Tan Sitong scolded the man behind him and turned to look at Cao Zixia again and spoke in an extremely sincere tone.
These words made Cao Zixia and the man behind Tan Sitong curl their lips like that.
Cao Zixia subconsciously believed that killing Seymour was useless, but for the last sentence, to avoid giving the great powers a chance to start a war, Cao Zixia only felt that Tan Sitong was dreaming.
