Chapter 225 Paper can't wrap fire
Minxiu smiled and said, "The old Buddha doesn't know anything, and the crow is a thief!" This year's New Year is not good. It snows heavily everywhere, and there is nothing to eat in the field. The ravens are so hungry that they put their chests to their bellies and think about where to find food all day long. An old crow had some insight, saying that there are so many delicacies in the garden. As long as it can fly in, it will be able to have a full meal, but the garden's guards are loyal to their duty and martial arts skills, guard the garden like iron barrels. Although the crows have wings, they are difficult to fly.
The crows were worried. Early this morning, the eunuch in the garden came to me and said that the old Buddha wanted me to enter the garden to talk. The little eunuch also wanted to reflect the prestige of the empress dowager. His voice was sonorous and powerful. As a result, it spread to the crow's ears. The crows combined and followed Minxiu Ge into the garden. Thinking about it, the bodyguards did not dare to stop it, so they did not do it, and did not stop. They pretended to be my attendants and quietly followed me. Sure enough, when the guards saw that it was Gege's crow, they naturally let them go all the way. This let them enter the garden and disturbed the old Buddha and the old Buddha. They are all not good at Minxiu. Please treat them.
Before Minxiu finished her words, the Empress Dowager Cixi had already smiled and said, "This ghost girl, a sharp tooth, that's all. Since the crow is Minxiu's entourage, let them eat in the garden! Go get some food and sprinkle it in the snow. We can't treat Gege's entourage badly.
"Hit." The little eunuch looked at Minxiu gratefully and trotted away all the way.
Minxiu lamented in her heart. In fact, this winter, those who are so hungry are not the crows, but the Zhili people!
In the summer, Zhili and Shandong suffered floods. Then, when the war broke out, the people were already underpaid because of the flood, and the government was still urging all kinds of harsh taxes to raise money for the war. The consequences of natural disasters and war were finally passed on to the people. The people of Zhili have been extremely poor, and this winter is particularly cold. At the feet of the emperor in Beijing, there have been people who have died of cold and starvation.
The people live in deep fire, and the end of the war is still far away, but the princes and nobles who dominated the war do not feel the suffering of the war at all. It's almost the Spring Festival. The soldiers in front of them are bathed in the ice and snow, and the people in the rear are begging along the streets in the ice and snow, and the deep courtyard of the princes and nobles They are dressed in red as in previous years, and their aunts are as happy as in previous years.
The old Buddha didn't like to listen to these words, and the officials of the court didn't want to touch the old Buddha's bad luck, and no one kept talking about it.
Minxiu used the crow to talk about the suffering of the people, but the smile of the old Buddha made her give up the idea.
It's hard to amuse the old Buddha. If the old Buddha sinks his face again, I don't know which unlucky little eunuch's head is in security.
As soon as the eunuch ran out, Cixi's laughter stopped abruptly and asked in a low voice, "Minxiu, to be honest, do you know Zhou Charter?"
Minxiu was stunned and her face turned red.
For this narrative, Minxiu prepared countless topics, but she has never thought about the topic of Zhou Charter, although the name Zhou Charter is a hot topic in today's court.
Minxiu intentionally or unintentionally avoided this topic, which is too embarrassing.
In fact, if the old Buddha comes slowly, Minxiu can also deal with it calmly.
However, the resourceful old Buddha was caught off guard when he killed Minxiu. The laughter of the old Buddha made Minxiu relax her vigilance.
"No, I don't know!" Minxiu denied it. However, the blush on her face could not escape the golden eyes of the Buddha.
"Minxiu, how long are you going to hide it from me!" Cixi sneered: "To tell the truth, where did Zhou Charter offend you? You can't get along with him everywhere!"
Minxiu couldn't hide it, so she had to say, "Old Buddha, in fact, I know him."
"How do you know each other?"
"He borrowed 2,000 taels of silver from me before and kept relying on it, so I was very angry..." Minxiu rushed to the hospital and pulled out the cherry's words for emergency.
"Nonsense!" Cixi stared at the eunuch maid at the door and shouted, "Go out! No one is allowed to come in."
The eunuch maids were so scared that their faces were as pale as earth, and they disappeared in an instant.
Cherry is not good, so she has to leave even if she raises her legs.
Cixi shouted, "Cherry! Do you want to run?
Cherry was so scared that she knelt down and said to the old Buddha, "I dare not!" Needless to say, the absurd thing of Tianjin Wubei School has spread to the ears of the old Buddha.
At the beginning, Zaiyi and Yetao stabbed this matter to Guangxu and wanted to use it to destroy Zhou Charter. Guangxu and Zhenfei knew that this was not a small matter, so they secretly interrogated the cherry. Cherry did not dare to hide it, so they had to tell it. Later, Guangxu never mentioned this matter again. Cherry thought it was over and did not dare to tell Minxiu. Unexpectedly, the old Buddha suddenly pulled out this matter again today. It seems that he can't get through today anyway.
What a smart person Minxiu is. As soon as he sees the posture of the old Buddha, he knows that the absurd thing has been exposed, and even the Empress Dowager Buddha knows it! Isn't it known to everyone in the world? Suddenly, his face was pale, his body was weak, tears rolled around his eyes, and his mind was blank.
Cixi patted the table and shouted, "Cherry! Let me ask you! At the beginning, Li Hongzhang wanted to kill Zhou Charter in Tianjin Military Academy. How did Zhou Charter run out? Tell me honestly!"
Cherry knew that it was difficult to hide it, so she had to tell the truth: "Old Buddha, it was the slave who let him go."
"You are a maid, what ability do you have to release a death row prisoner!" Cixi sneered.
Cherry gritted her teeth: "Old Buddha, it's really a slave to let me go. If the old Buddha wants to be punished, he will be punished. It has nothing to do with others!" Although Cherry is just a maid, she is extremely bloody. She is afraid that she will implicate Liu Buchan and Na Jin and take care of this matter.
Cixi sneered: "Cherry, I can't see that you are still a little bloody! If you don't say it, I told you that it was Jin who wanted to let Zhou Charter go. It was Liu Bu to the help, and the specific implementation was Cui Exposure! This week's Charter really has some ability to make these members of the Qing Dynasty work hard for him! Then Liu Bu toad is still Li Hongzhang's crony and the belt of the magnificent Beiyang sailor! This is really incredible!"
Cherry could no longer deny it, so she had to turn to Minxiu and said with tears, "Guge, Cherry, I'm sorry for you. Cherry has been with Gege for more than ten years. Cherry is willing to apologize for this matter."
But she heard Cixi patting the table and shouted, "Cherry, what's wrong with you? Zhou Charter is the backbone of the country. This man is not only capable of literature and martial arts, but also loyal and patriotic, benevolent and righteous, exquisite in business, and excellent in politics. Moreover, I heard that he is very handsome. This kind of talented and handsome young man can't be found in a lantern! I have such talents in the Qing Dynasty, which is God's favor to me in the Qing Dynasty. Li Hongzhang, an old man, is old and dizzy. He doesn't know much about it. He wants to kill this kind of talent that can't be found with lanterns! Fortunately, my Qing Dynasty and loyal servants such as Jin, Liu Buchan and Cherry saved Zhou Charter's life and saved my pillars for Qing Dynasty! Cherry, you are not guilty, but meritorious. You have great credit!"
Cherry looked at the Empress Dowager Cixi and couldn't believe her ears: "Old Buddha, Cherry doesn't understand..."
"I made it very clear!" Cixi became impatient: "Cherry, I have a string of beads here. You take them first. When Zhou Charter returns triumphantly, I will reward you..."
Minxiu suddenly said, "Old Buddha, Zhou Charter is a scoundrel!"
"Minxiu, are you talking about that?" Cixi and Yanyanyan said, "It's a little embarrassing to say that, but I know that there is a reason for the incident. Zhou Charter didn't do it on purpose. Speaking of which, you also have a responsibility. What is a big girl doing if she doesn't stay at home and run to the school?"
Zhou Charter watched Gege's bath. It's not good to say it in front of Minxiu.
"Old Buddha, did Zhou Charter say that? Old Buddha, he threatened me with this matter, blackmailing you!" Minxiu gritted her teeth and asked. Cherry always thought that only Zhou Charter, Cherry and Minxiu knew about that ridiculous thing. Now this matter has spread to the ears of Lafayette, and it can only be said by Zhou Charter!
Zhou Charter preached this all over the world, which proves that he is the biggest scoundrel!
Cherry said in a hurry, "Ger, he didn't say that."
"Isn't it him, is it you?"
"It's not me, it's Yetao!" Cherry hurriedly explained what had happened.
Only then did Minxiu know that paper could not wrap the fire.
Now, those who know about this matter are not only Cherry, Liu Buchan, Na Jin, but also Zaiyi, the king of Duan, and Ye Tao, even the emperor.
"Why did Yetao do this?" Minxiu gritted her teeth and asked.
Cherry said, "He is the key to Zhou Charter..."
"Nonsense!" Cixi scolded, "The father and son of the Ye family did this in the spirit of loyalty to the mourning family, the emperor and Ge Ge! Minxiu, think about it, if such a big thing has happened, you have been hiding it from me and have to deal with Zhou Charter everywhere, which makes me really think that Zhou Charter is a scoundrel and will kill him several times! Fortunately, Ye Tuo told the truth, and I woke up like a dream. Otherwise, if I killed Zhou Charter by mistake, wouldn't it be a big mistake?
Cixi's few words determined the sex for the father and son of the Ye family.
Cixi wants to protect the father and son of the Ye family. The father and son of the Ye family are a pair of real scoundrels. In order to destroy Zhou Charter, they did not hesitate to sacrifice the reputation of Minxiu Gege! However, in the eyes of Cixi, a pair of rogue father and son, like those who really want to save Zhou Charter, are meritorious officials!
Minxiu finally couldn't stand it and said, "Old Buddha, the father and son of the Ye family are insidious and despicable. They are going to frame Zhou Charter and frame me!"
