Cixi sat upright, trying her best to show the majesty and temperament of a superior.

Behind him, Prince Chun stood with blood in his eyes and an inexplicable smell, and seemed very unhappy, although he looked expressionless.

Looking at Cixi's messy temples, which had not been combed, the blush on her face faintly revealed. Even a fool could tell that, the lonely man and widowed woman lived in the same room, with layers of eunuchs guarding her outside.

"Didn't the Ai family say that I'll come again at noon. What's the matter with you now?" Cixi said unhappily.

"Isn't the good thing about the Emperor's Mother? The plan for the whole day is in the morning. The first time I get up is to pay my respects to the Emperor's Mother. Isn't that right?"

Tongzhi bowed to Cixi and walked to one side with a swagger. Swallow Li San also quickly placed the chair behind Tongzhi.

"Emperor, what do you mean? Prince Chun is in charge of the nine gates of the palace and is reporting to the Ai family..." He was already caught by his son and raised it again. In the face of him, Cixi suddenly became angry and stood up and said.

But when it comes to the point, I forced myself to hold it back.

Isn’t it that I can’t say that there is no silver here? Cixi’s chest trembled, slowly calmed down, sat back on her chair, and said slowly: “If I just come here to pay my respects, then the emperor can go back.”

Cixi is not stupid. I guess Li Lianying has told Cixi about the situation outside, and there is no guards around her, so she has to endure it.

"Don't worry, I haven't come to visit the emperor's mother for a long time, why should I be so anxious?"

"Very good, the emperor has indeed grown up and doesn't take the Ai family seriously." Why couldn't I hear Tongzhi's intention? She glanced at the maids beside her, and several maids immediately left the palace.

"Since that's the case, then open the skylight today and speak loudly. The emperor came here early today and brought many guards. The Ai family thought that the emperor had some requirements." Cixi looked at Tongzhi straight, wanting to see something from it.

In her opinion, Tongzhi was just a few guns and guards around him, which could cause a big wave.

To dispatch troops to wipe out the so-called military bases is just a warning to Tongzhi and let him be content with his own self-righteousness.

But to her disappointment, Tongzhi's eyes were clear and firm, and he couldn't see anything at all.

"The emperor's mother should be waiting for someone. Well, my son will wait for everyone and have a good talk with the emperor's mother. During this period, no one is allowed to leave."

Tongzhi just slanted a few maids, and the majesty faintly spread from his body made the maid who was about to leave stop and looked at Cixi who didn't know what to do.

"Come on, come and have tea." Cixi's face turned pale. She originally made people hear the soft loli sound, but at this moment she felt a chill.

They said they were mother and son, but at this moment they looked like enemies, sitting opposite each other, occasionally looking at each other without any emotional exchange.

"I really don't know if it's a blessing or a misfortune in the imperial family." Tongzhi sighed slightly.

Of course, the reasons for this are not only rights, but also institutional problems. The Qing Dynasty stipulated that after giving birth, the mother and son should be separated and raised by a special wet nurse, because they were afraid that if the child grew up and became an emperor, the foreign relative interfered in politics, the emperor would not be able to say anything because of his mother.

...

"Emperor, Prince Gong, Minister of War, Minister of Works, and other eight people asked for a visit." Chen Guifen walked to Tongzhi, bent down and whispered to Tongzhi.

"I understand, let them kneel outside and wait for notification." Tongzhi nodded slightly.

After Chen Guifen went out, Tongzhi's mouth slightly raised, drank the water from the teacup in one breath, and looked at Cixi with a slight smile.

"What kind of decorum? Let them come in and speak." Cixi slowly breathed a sigh of relief, but she still didn't show any expression, just looking at Tongzhi.

"I ran to the Queen Mother's bedroom collectively so early in the morning. It seems that I have had a very important thing. Okay, let them come in." Tongzhi didn't care. He asked them to kneel outside but wanted to see Cixi's attitude.

"Old Chen, let them come in."

During the whole process, Tongzhi never stood up, maintained a faint smile, calm appearance, but just crossed his legs slightly tremblingly. Obviously, his heart was not as calm as it showed.

"I wish you a blessing to the Queen Mother and the Emperor." The eight people entered and knelt down on the ground.

"Let's go flat," Cixi stretched out her hand and spoke.

"Slowly, I think it's not even more sincere to kneel here to report?" Tongzhi stood up and walked to the eight ministers and walked.

"Well, there is one less." Tongzhi turned around and pointed at Prince Chun and said, "Everyone is kneeling. Do you have any privileges that you stand taller than me?"

Prince Chun had a gloomy face. Even though Cixi had consulted them yesterday to discuss preparing to put the emperor under house arrest today, he did not dare to resist Tongzhi's face-to-face accusations!

Cixi was still sitting, and everything she saw was left to Tongzhi. She didn't say anything, but just held a teacup and savored it.

Without Cixi's support, Prince Chun had to kneel on the ground like everyone else.

"Okay, Emperor, have you finished speaking?" Cixi, who had not spoken, put the cup on the table.

"Well, it's over, what do you say, Empress?" Tongzhi spread his hands and sat back in his seat.

"Okay, then the Ai family will say it." Cixi slowly closed her eyes, opened it suddenly, and stared at Tongzhi:

"Since the emperor took power, he has abandoned the government and was extremely debauched, which has led to the decline of the national strength of the Qing Dynasty and was bullied by foreigners."

Cixi paused and continued, "So, after discussions with the Ai family, the emperor abdicated because he was seriously ill and established another person with capable royal family as the emperor, and the Ai family was in charge of the government."

Uh, can Fenglin shamelessly ask for votes? Thank you!
