With heavy steps, Xingzhen's words were still circling in Ronglu's mind. Just because she didn't tell her whereabouts of Xiao Yungui, she was like this to herself now? What was she in her mind? Is she a spare tire that would come and sway? She did so many things for her, and for her, she did not hesitate to make careful arrangements, so that Xianfeng could meet the King of Hell early! For her, she did not hesitate to deal with Sushun and finally helped her eliminate the Sushun party! For her, she did not take off her armor and fought fiercely with the Nian Army and the Taiping Army in Huai! The battle situation has just stabilized, and she has been ordering to recall herself and seized her military power without asking for help. As expected, women are all fickle!

When he arrived outside the Meridian Gate, the eighteen personal guards he brought back were waiting here. Ronglu ignored them and walked straight to his mount, big green horse, and after he turned over, he rode his horse and whipped away. The guards were in a daze and hurriedly jumped onto the horse and chased them all the way.

Ronglu rode out of the four nine cities, rode his horse for more than ten miles before slowly stopping. After running all the way, he felt a lot of depression in his heart. When Ronglu looked up, he found that he ran to the foot of Xiangshan. At this time, autumn was already coming, and the red leaves on Xiangshan were red in front of him, just like the bloody scene Ronglu saw on Huai. He defeated the 80,000 Nian Army in Shouzhou, and then arrested more than 30,000 Nian Army prisoners, and massacred them collectively in Shouzhou.

Ronglu and Miao Peilin, the leader of the Shouzhou regiment, set up a bureau together. Thirty thousand Nian Army prisoners were concentrated in the regiment camp outside Shouzhou City. There was a row of houses on one side. Ronglu asked Miao Peilin to go out to tell the prisoners, fifty groups, and entered the house in order to get severance fees and then let them go home. Nian Army prisoners lined up happily into the house, but they didn't know that the Qing army dug a huge deep pit behind the house. The prisoners who entered the house were killed by the Qing army ambushed in the house one by one, and all threw them into the deep pit.

At that time, Ronglu was standing by the big pit, silently watching the bloody corpses thrown into the pit, his eyes were filled with shocking redness, and those killed were gritting their teeth. Ronglu had a nightmare for this for several nights! But he did not regret that these people could not be let go, and after they were let go, it would be a huge hidden danger, which was also a big thing he did for Xingzhen!

For her, Ronglu asked herself that she could do anything! But why did she get this in the end? He was unwilling to accept it! Ronglu clenched her fists, why did the military power she had obtained with great effort? Why did she betray her brothers for many years betray her? Why did she say that she would call her and sway her? Just because she has great power now! Her power is now extremely great. Cixi, who ruled behind the curtain, has the power in his hands that is incomparable!

What if he was the one who held great power? Ronglu's heart was thrilled. He had been in power for a long time to better help Xingzhen. He never thought that his power would surpass Xingzhen, because he always regarded Xingzhen as his own person. At this moment, only if he truly held power that could not be shaken can she truly surrender!

Looking at the red leaves all over the mountain, Ronglu said to himself: "You can take away my current things, but if you can't take them, I will win them myself in the future! I want you to be by my side and not leave, and Xiao Yungui I will let him see his God!"

When the Eighteenth Personal Guards chased Ronglu, he had already rode his horse and walked back slowly. The leader of the Goshha was named Guide, who was a purse slave of Ronglu Suwan Guarja. He immediately stepped forward and got off the horse and said, "Master, what's wrong with you?"

Ronglu had already figured out this festival and laughed: "It's okay, the Empress Dowager seized the military power of his country. That's all, everyone will go back to the house for a drink!"

After saying that, Ronglu drove his horse slowly and slowly, Guide and other guards looked at each other, wondering if the master was lost in such a big change? He could still laugh out loud at this moment? Still have the intention to drink?

It was already evening when the group returned to the mansion. The incense table was set up in the front hall of the mansion, and Li Lianying sat steadily in the lobby. Zeng Jijing and the female family and the housekeeper, the head and others were anxious like ants on the warm kang. It turned out that Ronglu left the palace, and Xingzhen had drafted an order and issued it, and Li Lianying came to pass the order.

Ronglu returned to the capital and did not go home, but went straight to the palace. Zeng Jijing didn't know that Ronglu was back. Unexpectedly, Li Lianying came to pass the imperial edict, Zeng Jijing arranged the incense case, but the main owner was not there, so Li Lianying had to wait. Zeng Jijing sent several groups of servants to look for him one after another, but no one would have thought that this man would go to Xiangshan.

Ronglu didn't even change his court clothes, so he knelt down to the hall and listened to the order without changing his clothes. Li Lianying knew that this man was the empress dowager's confidant. Although he was beaten up for some reason, he might make a comeback one day, so he would not make things difficult for Ronglu, so he spread out the yellow silk imperial edict and started to recite it.

Zeng Jijing knelt behind Ronglu, and after only half of his hearing, he couldn't help but collapse on the ground. Ronglu turned around and looked at Zeng Jijing, waved his hand to signal his subordinates to support Zeng Jijing. After finally getting the order finished, the maid helped her down.

Xingzhen found a good excuse to depose him. In the Battle of Shouzhou, Xingzhen killed 30,000 surrendered soldiers without permission. She was deprived of her official position because of her usual merits and was imprisoned at home to observe the future. Xingzhen retained his title and did not let him go to prison, but what does it mean to be imprisoned at home? Are you still afraid that she would go out to cause trouble again?

Rong Lu smiled faintly and shouted long live, then took over the yellow silk imperial edict. Although Li Lianying, the eunuch, was still young, was extremely experienced in performing kung fu. He said with a sad face: "Mr. Rong, you must offend me if you are not a slave, and it is hard to violate the emperor's order."

Ronglu smiled and said, "My father-in-law is doing it himself." Li Lianying said that he offended him, so he ordered the imperial guards behind him to step forward and strip Ronglu of his official uniform. He said a few more words of comfort before saying goodbye.

The so-called ban at home means that Ronglu is not allowed to go out. Shangyu's spare parts came to guard the Ronglu Mansion gate in shifts. Although Li Lianying left, the group of guards stayed. Ronglu was not angry, but instead asked his personal guards to drink with several guards. He claimed that the people inside were not in a good mood and wanted to visit him. The guards naturally did not expect Ronglu to be so polite, and of course he also apologized repeatedly.

When he returned to the inner bedroom, Zeng Jijing had already woken up and was leaning against the bed railing and shed tears secretly. Ronglu sat down beside the bed and waved his back and comforted him: "A person has three declines and six prosperity. He just lost his official position. Didn't the Empress Dowager still keep my title?"

Zeng Jijing cried and said, "I am just a substitute for you. How could it be your own idea to kill 30,000 prisoners like this? It would be too unfair to hit you with one stroke."

Rong Lu said lightly: "This matter is really my own idea. Yuan Jiasan and Li Hongzhang both advised me to kill and surrender the bully."

Zeng Jijing said a word. He looked at Ronglu in horror. Ronglu gently stroked her jade forehead and said softly: "The reason why the Nian bandits can't suppress it is to release it repeatedly. In order to stop repeating it, I issued this order."

Zeng Jijing said in a daze: "Master, is this contrary to heaven?"

Rong Lu smiled slightly. The smile was still so charming: "All those who rebel should die, right? If they don't rebel, how can they need to quell the rebellion in the court? Everything is their fate, and it is also their own fault. Even if the father-in-law knows it, he will give me a thumbs up."

Zeng Jijing said with a bitter face: "But now there is no errand. I am trapped in the mansion again, what should I do?"

Ronglu gently hugged Zeng Jijing and smiled and said, "This is not the right thing to do. Keep a low profile and spend more time with you. Since you got married, you have not been with you well."

Zeng Jijing felt warm and leaned against Ronglu's chest and said, "Master, you are so nice, I just feel wronged."

Ronglu smiled and said, "With this moment, let's give birth to a fat boy as soon as possible, how about?" Zeng Jijing blushed and said softly as if a mosquito was mosquito. Ronglu leaned over and pressed up, and it was a scene of spring in the room.

Since then, Ronglu has been staying in the mansion every day, accompanying Zeng Jijing to read books, play the piano, enjoy flowers and play, and is so happy. This tranquility was not broken until the thirteenth day. When the housekeeper who went out to buy food and goods came back on this day, he brought in a person. The guards guards at the door did not doubt the person who delivered the food. They were very well received by Ronglu these days.

After the visitor arrived at the mansion, he walked around the back kitchen and followed the butler directly to Ronglu's study. The butler Jinglu stepped forward and called a thousand words: "Master, this gentleman is the one who came to meet the appointment after receiving your letter."

Rong Lu nodded, waved his hand and asked the butler to retreat, then looked at the person in front of him and said, "You were sent by the Consul of Ali Country? Why are you so fast?"

The man smiled faintly and went forward and bowed, "I am in Dagukou, and it is not very far from coming to the capital. Gong Cheng is here, and I have met Lord Rong."

Rong Lu frowned slightly and asked, "Gong Cheng? Could it be Gong Zizhen?"

Gong Cheng was slightly stunned and smiled and said, "Is the villain so famous? Lord Rong actually only mentioned the name of his father."

Rong Lu nodded and thought to himself that I knew you naturally! It turned out that Gong Cheng was the son of Gong Zizhen, a famous literary scholar during the Daoguang period. Gong Zizhen encountered the Lilac Flower case that year. This case was bizarre. Not only was Gong Zizhen dismissed from office because of this case, but it was also rumored that he was assassinated by a prominent prince in the capital.

Gong Cheng is a person who is unruly, but he is introverted and taciturn. He likes to travel with evil spirits. He likes to collect ancient books. He is full of knowledge and is knowledgeable. He is also well-versed in Mongolian, Manchu, and even English. He is very talented and knowledgeable. Although this person is talented, he is not good at being a person. He is romantic and has a good personality. He has spent all his money on women. Then he went to Shanghai and served as an aide under Weituma, the vice-consul of Shanghai, England at the time.

Ronglu remembered that this person was just because he was rumored to be a big traitor. The reason was that he had been working in the British and French coalition forces in later generations and finally led the robbers to rob the Old Summer Palace. However, Ronglu did not think that this matter was related to Gong Cheng. Where is the Old Summer Palace? In the royal land, people who knew the location were there, why must it be the way Gong Cheng led? As for Gong Cheng's crime, there may be only two charges for Gong Cheng. First, he has been working for the British, and second, he has been inappropriate in behavior and has a bad reputation, so he has been punished by this charge.

Rong Lu smiled faintly and said, "Gong Cheng and Gong Banlun's reputation are still a bit famous in Shanghai. Okay, I don't like to be polite, let's get back to the point. What does Mr. Aliguo mean to me?"

Gong Cheng smiled slightly and said, "The British prefer to get something without bleeding, but Mr. Aliguo attaches great importance to your advice, but he wants to know why you are betraying your country?"
