However, the Japanese royal family will definitely not give up. What Neminichiro said before, "Namba Kyo will not let him go," refers to the secret guard organization responsible for cleaning up around the emperor.
Therefore, he has experienced a lot of hardships since he was a child before he survived until now.
"10,9,8,6......"
Facing Fang Linyan's oppression at this time, Neminichiro actually had no choice. He could only sigh a long time during the countdown and surrendered:
"Okay, I'll write!"
Next he took out a small knife and cut his skinny wrist. Then he waited for the blood to flow out. After taking a small cup of blood, he dipped a brush in the blood and wrote on the talisman paper designated by Fang Linyan.
"Ascend to the sky and reach the earth, leave the netherworld and enter the underworld", so with grief and anger, I hugged my daughter and closed my eyes to wait for death.
Fang Linyan put down the one hundred yen directly, took the talisman and walked away.
Neminichiro was already waiting for death. It took several minutes before he opened his eyes and said in surprise:
"Isn't he here to kill me?"
Zhizi took the banknote and looked at it:
“It’s really a hundred yen!
Father, are you mistaken? I think this person really came to you to write these eight words. If he really wanted to kill you, why would he give you these medicines?"
Neminichiro was silent for a while, then said with a wry smile:
"It seems like I really made a mistake."
As a result, at this time, there were hurried footsteps outside again. It was Fang Linyan who was leaving and coming back. Just when Neminichiro and his daughter were extremely anxious, Fang Linyan said angrily:
"Look at these eight characters you wrote! They are crooked and you can't even see the strokes clearly. Who are you trying to deal with?"
He thought for a while, then took out a stack of banknotes, probably several thousand yuan, and threw it directly on the bed next to him, and said angrily:
"I'm in a hurry, hurry up and continue writing! Write until I'm satisfied! I'm telling you, old man Genshi! If the blood in the wine glass runs out, I will cut your wrist again and your blood will drain out.
If you don’t, I’ll cut off your daughter!”
Neshiichiro stared at Fang Linyan again and said hesitantly:
"Are you really not from Namba Kyo?"
Fang Linyan simply took off his mask:
"Are you done or not, I am Chinese!
Are there any Chinese in the Namba Kyo you mentioned? Hurry up and write it down, and I will reward you with a thousand yen per word!"
Seeing this scene, Neminichiro suddenly felt relieved. Isn't it just writing eight characters with blood? I am good at this. If there is no upper limit on rewards, labor and management can write enough to buy the entire city of Tokyo!
So he kicked his daughter to signal her to put the money away, then nodded repeatedly and said:
"Okay, I'll write it right away!"
Needless to say, Fang Linyan finally succeeded in dealing with the old man and obtained the blood of the wealthy family.
***
capital,
summer palace
The Hall of Nourishing Heart......
Originally, the emperors of the Qing Dynasty were accustomed to attend court in the Palace of Qianqing, but since Cixi hung the curtain, the administrative orders of this decadent, ancient, and huge empire began to be issued from the Yangxin Palace.
It is still raining heavily here, and the sky above the entire BJ seems to be covered with a layer of gray low pressure. It seems that the grievances that the Chinese nation has accumulated over the past few hundred years are fermenting and settling here, lingering in the center of this empire.
Above.
At the gate of the Summer Palace, many people had gathered, with solemn faces and silent words.
Many officials waiting outside the palace were quite wet. Each of them had solemn expressions, but their eyes were wandering.
These old oilmen who have been in the officialdom for too long have been polished into smooth glass bullets. The only six-character mantra they chant in their hearts is "kowtow more and talk less."
Some people are even a little gloating in their hearts: Haha, Ye Henala came to defeat Aixinjueluo's country. It's really tit for tat. The master doesn't feel sorry for it. What the hell are we doing with eighteen taels and ninety cents?
Heart? (Note: The salary of a fifth-grade Beijing official at that time was eighteen taels or nine cents per month. Of course, the salary was not considered extra money.)
Soon, an official sedan was slowly carried in from the outside. The sedan was covered with a layer of green woolen cloth. It looked half-new and not old. It seemed ordinary, but it was possible to come directly in the sedan.
Even in this empire, there are only a handful of people who have the privilege to come to the gate of Yangxin Hall!
After getting off the sedan, an old man slowly walked out from inside.
An old man who was already in his twilight years and walked a little shaky.
However, for such an old man, his every move, even a cough, can stir up thunder and lightning in China and even the whole of Asia!
This old man has thick eyebrows and deep frown. Of course he is Li Gongzhang!
If Fang Linyan were here, he would find that Li Gongzhang was obviously much thinner than before. He could even be described as having a slim figure. It was obvious that what happened during this period had a huge impact on him.
But it’s no wonder that the Beiyang side is already confident of winning. Lao Li is about to achieve the pinnacle achievement of “one man against one country”, become famous in Asia, and become a real Oriental Bismarck, but the pig teammates are causing trouble next to him!
Moreover, this pig teammate is also his own brother, which directly violated the royal family's biggest taboo.
This made Li Gongzhang just look up to the sky and sigh, crying out for help. At that moment, he was really in tears.
From Li Gongzhang's point of view, he actually had only two choices, either to go to Beijing to plead guilty, or to turn his heart completely against him.
However, for Li Gongzhang, he was a student of Zeng Guofan. He had been brainwashed by loyalty to the emperor and the country since he was a child. He had the mental intention to be a powerful minister, but he never thought of becoming a second minister.
What's more, Li Gongzhang is now very clear that he is in his dying years. If there is any change in the Beiyang group, the great powers will inevitably intervene. In addition, Cixi has long said the famous saying "I would rather be with friends than with domestic slaves", so he simply cannot
He won't live long enough to successfully usurp the throne and ascend to the throne.
And his sons are mediocre and incompetent. If he dies, the whole family may be dragged down to be buried with him.
Therefore, the only thing Li Gongzhang could do at this time was to continue to kneel in front of the emperor and Lafayette, who had kneeled for decades, and endure the humiliation and ask for mercy!
As if it was a signal, after Li Gongzhang appeared, the other ministers also appeared one after another, such as the foreman, the Minister of Military Aircraft, Prince Li Shiduo, Prince Gong Yixin, known as Guiziliu, and of course the Emperor.
The core figures of the party, Weng Tonghe, Yushi Yang Senxiu and others...
It is worth mentioning that Tan Sitong was among them at this time, but his current position was a bit awkward. He was obviously standing among the imperialists, but there was a large circle around him.
, as if he was carrying a plague, and was completely ostracized by his colleagues and others.
The reason for this is that since Li Gongzhang's brother made those idiotic remarks, the imperial party was almost overjoyed, because Li Gongzhang himself was the mainstay of the Houdang (Cixi's faction), and Lord Zhongtang joined forces with Cixi. This resulted in a comprehensive crushing of the imperial party, suppressing it to the point where it was hard to even breathe.
Once the two people turn against each other, it will be a typical internal conflict. No matter who wins or loses in the end, it will be a matter worthy of carnival and drunkenness for the Imperial Party. For this reason, they will not hesitate to add fuel to the flames.
The reason why the North Korean defense line collapsed like a paper lake and was vulnerable to the Japanese army who lacked supplies and ammunition was because Feng Sheng'a took the lead in running away and directly gave up the dangerous position.
The reason why Fengsheng A dared to do this was of course because the imperial party was behind it, adding fuel to the flames and frantically restricting his efforts.
Faced with all this, Tan Sitong certainly couldn't stand it, especially after the imperialists also reached an agreement and unanimously began to promote peace negotiations with Japan!
For the imperial party, negotiating peace with Japan at this time, losing power, humiliating the country, and humiliating the ancestors can be firmly pinned on Cixi and Li Gongzhang. In this case, the power and reputation of the rear party will be greatly damaged, and of course it is the imperial party. The party is proud.
The problem is that their behavior is to put party struggle above the country! They don't even consider whether the Qing Dynasty, which is already in turmoil, can withstand such turmoil.
As a stubborn Hunan barbarian, Tan Sitong would of course stand up and speak out, and he would not give in. Of course, his unique approach of standing out from the crowd was greatly appreciated by his mentor Weng Tongsu, and he said that he could no longer teach him. He did.
Therefore, Tan Sitong was lonely at this time, and he was in pain.
He knew that he couldn't change anything by coming here, but the unwillingness, guilt, and anger in his chest were constantly surging, making him feel that he had to do something in China and this nation's darkest moment, even if If he was hit and killed on the pillar next to him, his blood would be spattered five steps away, otherwise he would end up being...uneasy!
As relevant people arrived one after another, the eunuch next to him sang loudly:
"The Emperor has arrived!
"
Of course all the ministers knelt down and worshiped.
Qi Xiang is a tall, thin young man, in his twenties, with a pale complexion and some abnormal crimson on his cheeks. The old Chinese doctor knew at a glance that this was due to malnutrition and kidney deficiency... ..Maybe there are some problems with premature ejaculation and semen.
His eyes were a little wandering, but there was still a vague feeling, as if it was difficult to concentrate.
If such a person removes the dragon robe and crown, and puts a jacket on him, he will immediately be reminded of those prodigal sons who spend their time on the streets of the capital, stealing one or two valuable items from home. I went to a pledge shop to pledge my money, and then went to a smokehouse to fool around...
Soon, Qixiang's eyes finally met Weng Tonghe's. Old Man Weng nodded slightly without being noticed, and Qixiang's eyes also revealed a look of ecstasy.
At this moment, another eunuch shouted loudly:
"Lafayette is here!
"
So, Cixi, along with her close confidant Sister Li and the powerful eunuch Li Lianying, walked in leisurely from outside, sat down directly behind the emperor, and lowered the bead curtain----- ----This is commonly known as listening to politics behind the curtain!
