Chapter 094 Lost and Regained Pocket Watch

"The emperor is arriving!" A eunuch shouted loudly.

Emperor Guangxu's face was gloomy and strode along the corridor.

"Give good to the emperor." Zhenfei and Minxiu got up in a hurry and knelt to the ground.

"Minxiu is also here." Emperor Guangxu said coldly, "Get up."

"Thank you, Emperor." Zhenfei and Minxiu stood up and stood down.

The eunuch carried a chair, and Emperor Guangxu sat down in the chair and said harshly, "Princess Zhen, your brother Zhirui said that Kang Youwei changed the law and wanted me to reuse him. Weng Tongqi also said that the new change to protect the emperor and protect the country! You also advised me to reuse them all day long, but these new factions are secretly coming with the revolutionaries! They don't want to change the law. They want the country of my ancestors!"

"Why did the emperor say this?" Concubine Zhen said slowly that she had long been used to Emperor Guangxu's surprise and joy and anger. This was the emperor's taboo, but the emperor could not change this problem.

"Tang Caichang of the new school secretly came to Sun Wen!" Guangxu said fiercely, "What's hateful is that Huang Zunxian actually let this Tang Caichang go! This is the world of the Qing Dynasty. Where can the traitors and thieves go? I have ordered Zhang Zhidong, the governor of Huguang, to arrest Tang Caichang immediately, and wait to arrest Sun Wen and correct the law! This Huang Zunxian and those newists are not good things. I plan to..."

"Your Majesty!" Minxiu said harshly, "I have heard of Tang Caichang. He is a little dull and secretly dealing with Sun Wen. I dare not guess. However, I'm afraid it's not appropriate for the emperor to deny all the new factions just because of a Tang Caichang! Your Majesty, I don't know anyone else. Huang Zunxian is the backbone of my Qing Dynasty. This humanistic martial arts strategy is loyal to me in the Qing Dynasty. The emperor wants to take Huang Zunxian because of a Tang Dynasty. How should people in the world comment on the emperor!"

Emperor Guangxu sneered: "Minxiu, the empress dowager has designated a good marriage for you, just follow the empress dowager and come to me to talk nonsense!" Don't you know that these newists communicate with Sun Wen that this is to rebel!"

"Your Majesty!" Minxiu's face turned blue with anger, and tears rolled around in his eyes. Minxiu is not happy with that marriage from the bottom of her heart, but who dares not obey the Empress Dowager's decree? But she, the emperor's brother, not only didn't understand her sister, but also made sarcastic words! Minxiu felt chilled.

"Your Majesty's Mingjian!" Concubine Zhen said, "Your Majesty, if the Rehist faction wants to rebel, why do they have to unite with Sun Wen? The Weixin faction is so powerful that they are all their people from the court to the place. And Sun Wen fled to the sea and has no foundation in China. He is not a climate at all! He has no capital to cooperate with the newists at all! Emperor, the Weixin faction advocates the preservation of the emperor and protecting the country, and advocates the emperor's arbitrariness. If the Weixin faction fails, who will be the biggest beneficiary? The emperor should think about it!"

Emperor Guangxu suddenly broke out in a cold sweat, and these words of Zhenfei can be said to be in one sentence! The Weixin faction collapsed, and the biggest beneficiary was the Empress Dowager Buddha!

Without the Zhou Charter, the emperor can rely on these scholars of the Weixin faction!

If the new faction collapses again, the emperor will completely become a widow.

Guangxu wiped his cold sweat and hurriedly said, "What my concubine and the royal sister said is reasonable, and I almost fell for them again!" This must be the people of Prince Duan who are making trouble and want to bring down the great cause of the new law! Kang You is our loyal minister of the Qing Dynasty!"

The princess sighed secretly, and the emperor's ears were surprisingly soft. Just now, he still looked full of righteous indignation to rectify the Weixin faction. In a blink of an eye, the Weixin faction became a loyal minister of the Qing Dynasty.

Guangxu got up urgently: "I have to kill Zhang Zhidong and let Tang Caichang go. This Tang Caichang is often Mr. Ouyang Zhonghao's senior disciple. How can he be a revolutionary party!"

"Your Majesty's Mingjian!" Zhenfei and Minxiu got up.

A little eunuch came over in a hurry and knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, Chief Cui next to the Empress Dowager came and said that he wanted to see Empress Zhen."

"Cui Yugui is a son of a bitch! With the support of the Empress Dowager, she never pays attention to me. Li Lianying still knows some rules. This dog has no rules at all!" Guangxu scolded with hatred.

"Your Majesty, since it's a person sent by the Empress Dowager Buddha, it's better to be polite." Concubine Zhen said softly.

"Call him to come, I'll see what he's going to do!" Guangxu shouted.

After a while, Cui Yugui came to Yihexuan and knelt down to Emperor Guangxu: "I would like to say peace to the emperor."

"If the Empress Dowager sends you here, something will happen." Guangxu said coldly.

"It's not a big deal for the emperor." Cui Yugui knelt on the ground and dared not stand up: "Two days ago, Shanghai Dao Huang Zunxian grabbed a Jiangyang thief who stole the forbidden objects in the palace and found a contraband in the palace. Huang Zunxian sent the things to the palace. The empress dowager meant that the Jiangyang thief stole the things in the palace. There must be someone in the palace. He should follow the meadow and hold the palace. The thief in the middle. Strangely, this is obviously a thing in the palace, but it can't be found from the source of this thing. Therefore, the Empress Dowager ordered me to show this thing to the Empress Dowager.

Guangxu said angrily, "Chief Cui, you mean that Zhenfei is a thief!"

"I dare not!" Cui Yugui said, "This is the decree of the Empress Dowager. I'm just going to send a message!"

"Bulls!" Guangxu was furious: "Get back!"

Concubine Zhen hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, it's just the meaning of the empress dowager. Why do you have to be angry with a slave? Let him take out the things and let my concubine have a look. Maybe my concubine recognizes it, so there is a clue."

Guangxu said coldly, "Since the beloved concubine spoke, Cui Yugui, you can take out the things."

"Thank you, Emperor." Cui Yugui said, took out a yellow paragraph package from his arms and gently opened it.

In the package is a well-made pocket watch with several gems on the gold dial.

Princess Zhen's head buzzed.

That's her thing. That's the Swiss pocket watch given to her by the emperor himself. Two months ago, she gave this pocket watch to Zhou Charter through Zhang Zhidong!

"Princess Zhen, do you recognize this pocket watch?" Cui Yugui asked.

Before Princess Zhen could talk to her, Emperor Guangxu shouted sharply, "I don't know what this thing is from. How can Princess Zhen know!"

"Oh, in this case, the slave will go back to the garden and restore his life to the Empress Dowager Buddha."

Guangxu nodded: "Leave the things, and I will patrol slowly!"

Cui Yugui put down his pocket watch and got up and left.

Guangxu's face turned pale and turned to Minxiu and said, "Minxiu, you can go back."

Minxiu saw that Guangxu's face was not good. She knew that there was something wrong with the pocket watch, but she did not dare to ask more questions. She hurriedly bowed to Guangxu: "Good bye." With that, he hurried away.

Guangxu glanced at the eunuch maid around him: "Get back!" The palace people dispersed.

Guangxu stared at Zhenfei and didn't say anything for a long time.

Zhenfei knelt down weakly in front of Guangxu. She knew that Guangxu recognized the pocket watch.

"Princess, how do you explain to me? My imperial concubine of the Qing Dynasty actually did the job of a thief!" Two cold lights shot out of Guangxu's eyes, which made Zhenfei trembling.

However, in the depths of Zhenfei's heart, there was a warm current, which was enough to offset the cold light in Emperor Guangxu's eyes.

This pocket watch is carried by Zhou Charter. If he really died in the typhoon, this pocket watch should sink into the sea with him!

And now, this pocket watch has returned to the Forbidden City!

There is only one possibility: Zhou Charter is not dead! He must still be alive!

Concubine Zhen was panicked, not because of the emperor's forced questioning, but because she, as the emperor's concubine, was actually excited for an unimpartable man!

"Your Majesty, this is indeed the pocket watch given by the emperor to my concubine. I don't know why it ran out of the palace. Concubine Zhen said slowly, and her heart suddenly calmed down. I don't know why. Zhou Charter is still alive, which is enough for her to bravely face an angry emperor. Zhou Charter seems to have become her backer!

"Are you telling the truth?" Guangxu asked.

"Yes, your Majesty!" Concubine Zhen decided not to tell the emperor that Zhou Charter was alive. She suddenly felt that the emperor was unreliable, and there was no reliable person in the Forbidden City: "Rong Chen's concubine visited the insiders in the palace in detail."

"Well, I'll believe you once!" Guangxu said and handed the pocket watch to Zhenfei.

"Thank you, Emperor." Zhenfei took the pocket watch and said.

"My concubine asked the emperor to order Huang Zunxian to take good treatment of the Jiangyang thief who stole his pocket watch." Zhenfei said, "After all, the clues of the thief in this palace are the easiest to get from him. If he has three advantages and disadvantages, the clue will be broken.

Concubine knows that the Jiangyang thief is either Zhou Charter himself or Zhou Charter's brother.

"Yes, I will immediately order Huang Zunxian to escort the criminal to the capital."

"Your Majesty, by no!" Concubine Zhen said in a hurry. Once the Jiangyang thief is escorted to the capital, whether it is Zhou Charter himself or not, the news that Zhou Charter is alive will be leaked to the Empress Dowager Buddha, and the Empress Dowager Buddha will never let Zhou Charter go!

"Why?"

Concubine Zhen panicked and hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, I'm afraid that something will make mistakes on the road. From Shanghai to the capital, thousands of miles away, if there is a slight mistake and let him run away, it will be troublesome."

Guangxu nodded: "What Concubine said is reasonable, so I ordered Huang Zunxian to interrogate her in Shanghai. As soon as there is a clue, I will report it immediately."

"Thank you, Emperor."

Guangxu said and strode away.

Princess Zhen held her pocket watch and stood by the eight-treasure glazed well, her heart beating wildly.

The pocket watch once stayed in a man's arms. Concubine held the pocket watch, as if touching the man's skin. Concubine Zhen's face couldn't help flushing.

Then Zhen's heart sank, and she couldn't scream well!

Is he really caught by Huang Zunxian? If so, his identity will inevitably be exposed, and the Empress Dowager Buddha will certainly not let him go!

"Come on!" Concubine Zhen shouted.

The eunuchs came over together.

"I want to have a family with my brother Zhi Rui." Princess Zhen said.

"Yes!" A eunuch took the order and hurried away.
