Chapter 311 Chapter [-] Calculation
The urgent report sent from the Old Summer Palace did not contain much content, only one sentence:

The emperor collapsed, the country was in danger, and the teacher returned quickly.

After reading it, Lin Qingxuan knew that this message must have been sent by an important official or military minister in the Yanjing Palace.

It can be seen from this that Xianfeng's death must not be a normal death, and even a coup has broken out in Yanjing City.

Remembering that the reform of the Dao Monarchy that he insisted on involved the national destiny of China, Lin Qingxuan did not dare to be negligent, so he hurriedly got up and ordered North Korea affairs, and ordered people to send Mu Ren and Li Xi back to Qingniu Palace, while he himself flew out of the palace, like flying Leaping towards the clouds like a kite, fleeing against the wind.

……

When Lin Qingxuan Yufeng returned to the country, the Forbidden City in Yanjing, which was two thousand miles west of Seoul, was completely silent. The court ladies and eunuchs also stayed at the duty station tremblingly, and there were constant sounds of disputes in the Hall of Supreme Harmony.

As the chief minister of the Military Aircraft Department, Yi led the important officials of the Military Aircraft Department to send the body of Emperor Xianfeng back to the imperial palace. As a result, after entering Beijing, he was imprisoned by the former empress and imperial concubine of the East and West Palaces, the current Empress Dowager Ci'an and Cixi. In the Hall of Supreme Harmony.

Then Ci'an's uncle, Prince Zheng who stayed behind in Yanjing, and Duanhua, the admiral of Jiajiumen, have sealed off Yanjing. Waiting for Seng Gelinqin to bring the last elite troops of Manchuria to the capital, then all the officials of the Military Aircraft Department can be abolished , establish a new monarch, and abolish the Quanzhen state religion and Lin Qingxuan's position as the national teacher Zhenjun Datianshi.

The Empress Dowagers of the Two Palaces, Duanhua and others have been planning for a long time, in order not to let the Aixinjueluo family's country be handed over to Lin Qingxuan and other Quanzhen Taoists, in order not to let the Qing Dynasty continue to implement reforms. Behind them are the Eight Banners Sect Power is also the common desire of the Manchu and Mongolian nobles who do not want Taoists to usurp power and disrupt the country. It is precisely because of this that Lin Qingxuan has made many great things in the more than a year since he left Yanjing.

Sitting on the dragon chair in the Hall of Supreme Harmony was a thin young man with an ugly face. He was the crown prince Zaichun, but he was indeed wearing a royal robe now, sitting on the dragon chair with an awkward expression, looking helplessly at the parked man on the hall. The golden coffin, the important military ministers on both sides, and the two fathers sitting on the left and right sides of him.

As the crown prince who practiced Taoism under the three masters of the Quanzhen Sect since he was a child, although Zaichun failed to master the national art, his cultivation of mind and character was still beyond ordinary people. He didn't want to succeed as the new monarch, but wanted to devote himself to cultivating Taoism, so that the Qing Dynasty could be restructured into a Taoist monarchy according to the wishes of his father and grandfather.

But Zaichun was submissive and did not dare to disobey his two fathers, so he could only stay in the Forbidden City and act as a marionette for the two empress dowagers.

The Hall of Supreme Harmony is divided into the Manchu and Han military planes headed by Yi and Zeng Guofan and the Manchurian and Mongolian military planes headed by Duanhua and Seng Gelinqin. The family business was handed over to others, so he launched an attack when Lin Qingxuan was not at home.

Yi and Zeng Guofan were the few people in the Qing court who saw the world with their eyes open. They were first infected by Lin Qingxuan and changed their minds. Later, they also knew that if the Qing Dynasty wanted to continue to maintain its status as a celestial state, it must undergo restructuring. In other words, relying on the admiration for Lin Qingxuan and the belief in the legend of immortality, these factors supported Yi, Zeng Guofan and others, including Emperor Xianfeng, who were willing to go all out to carry out the process of reforming the Taoist kingdom.

However, Zeng Guofan and Yi have been dealing with the country's military and political affairs in the Old Summer Palace in recent years, and they don't understand the undercurrents in Yanjing. In addition, after the Great Celestial Master went east to Korea, the Qing Dynasty and Japan went to war, and Western countries participated in reforms, The construction of industries and many other important things depend on Yi, Zeng Guofan and others. Zeng Guofan has been in poor health for the past two years, and he has to live in the South Garden of Yuanmingyuan for more than half of the year to recuperate. It all depends on Yi and Li Hongzhang.

In order to be able to introduce the advanced steel and musket production lines in the UK, Li Hongzhang even set off for Europe last spring, and is still in Sweden, so the most powerful reformers in the military aircraft department such as Yi are short-handed. It is also difficult to detect, even if it is detected, it will not be expected to evolve into the current situation.

It was precisely because of unknown circumstances that Yi returned to the palace with Xianfeng's body, and was then placed under house arrest in the Hall of Supreme Harmony by the Empress Dowagers of the Two Palaces, Duanhua and others.

Zeng Guofan also came here with an illness. After arguing a few words in the hall, he passed out from heartache and suffocation. Yi coldly looked at Duanhua and Seng Gelinqin who were showing off their might, squinted his eyes, and said: "The late emperor ordered you not to wait." Feng, now imprisoning me here, holding the crown prince hostage and forcing him to become the emperor without filial piety, is really a bunch of wolves and ambitious people.

Aren't you afraid that the [-] Daoist troops from North Korea and the hundreds of thousands of new troops from Denglai and Huguang will enter the Qing Dynasty's side?Are you not afraid of the divine punishment from Master Dongmiao Qingxuan? "

When Yi talked about the Guardian Army and the New Army, Duanhua, Seng Gelinqin and others still looked solemn, but after hearing Lin Qingxuan's name, everyone's expression changed, even the two queen mothers who sat on top of Danchi were also very serious. I can't help but wonder in my heart.

Master Dongmiao Qingxuan is a real immortal, a god statue with great supernatural powers. Last year, he defeated tens of thousands of Japanese troops by himself and surrendered Japan. How can such a sacredness be provoked and insulted by ordinary people?

After all, the Empress Dowager Cixi was smarter, she looked at Sister Ci'an, and shouted sharply: "Master Dongmiao Qingxuan is our national teacher of the Qing Dynasty, why did our Qing Dynasty treat him badly?
Although according to the seniority, the Ai family is also a junior, but according to the secular rules, the national teacher is always under the emperor, and my Great Qing Restoration and Power may not have to build a Taoist monarchy. When the national teacher returns, his old man is still the national teacher Master, it’s all right to make him an emperor, but he is a god in the sky, and he must never be the king of our world...

For many years, you have mobilized the national teacher and the first emperor, clearly to destroy the foundation of our Qing Dynasty. They are eternal traitors, who came to remove Yi's Prince Gong, and Zeng Guofan, Li Hongzhang and other accomplices were dismissed from their posts and investigated. Their family properties were confiscated. The family members were exiled in Yunnan..."

The Empress Dowager Cixi has a shallow foundation, but after all, she is smart and ruthless, and knows how to figure out the wishes of the late emperor and sister Ci'an, so in the noisy Hall of Supreme Harmony, she is the first person to make a decision. Ci'an was afraid of the Quanzhen Sect, and remained silent.

Cixi frowned, and said in a low voice: "Sister, if the national teacher can't stabilize the overall situation and reset the universe when he returns, I'm afraid you and I will be hard-pressed to survive..."

Ci'an's heart sank when he heard the words, and he looked at Cixi, Duanhua and the others rather annoyedly, heaved a long sigh, and ordered: "Prince Gong Yi, Minister of Military Aircraft Zeng Guofan... and others conspire against each other, their crimes are unforgivable, come here. Take off the crowns of Prince Gong, Zeng Guofan and others, put them in prison, and wait for their crimes to be settled before being dealt with..."

Yi sighed softly when he heard the words, and let the guards take off his crown and court beads.

After a while, the embarrassed Prince Gong frowned and looked at Ci'an and Cixi, all alone, and said coldly: "Sister-in-law, what you are doing is to put our Aixinjueluo family in a state of eternal doom." ...

What kind of person is the Great Heavenly Master?How can you wait to be presumptuous?
Even the three masters, Song Meilun, Dong Haichuan, and Yang Luchan, are extraordinary. As long as you dare to overthrow the last emperor's edict and reduce the authority of Quanzhen's national religion, the three masters will come to your bedside to question you without any action from a fairy! "

Ci'an and Cixi's faces darkened when they heard the words, while Seng Gelinqin said in a deep voice: "Dong and Yang went west with Li Hongzhang to Europe, and they may have been buried in the sea. Song Meilun is the owner of Qingniu Palace. I am afraid that after tonight, they will have a relationship with Qingniu." The Ox Palace disappeared together!"

Yi's expression changed, and he stared, "What did you do?"

Seng Gelinqin and Duanhua just sneered and said nothing, while Ci'an and Cixi closed their eyes and waved their hands. The guards dragged Yi, Zeng Guofan and others out.

The Hall of Supreme Harmony suddenly returned to silence. After a long time, the new monarch Zai Chun asked in panic, "Queen Mother, Prince Zheng, King Monk, what happened to Qingniu Palace?"

Seng Gelinqin said with a smile: "Should it be water?"

Duanhua echoed in his heart: "It's just that there is a good gunpowder hidden in the palace, and Song Mailun and Qingniu Palace will disappear from now on..."
