Chapter 166 The Truth of the Summer Palace

Listening to Hu Chuyuan's words, Yi took a cold breath, and his heart was even colder. He couldn't help but have a thin layer of cold sweat beads on his back.

In fact, he knew very well that if this matter was done too obviously, let Cixi see through it, he and Hu Chuyuan would suffer.

Cixi wants him to die. He won't live until next year.

Cixi wants Hu Chuyuan to die. Even if Hu Chuyuan doesn't die, he will have to go into exile overseas. He can't return to China until Cixi dies... Unless it's really time for everyone to tear his face.

After thinking about it, Yi and Hu Chuyuan said heartfeltly, "You have this heart... Well, I... I knew you are a person who sincerely respects the country, and it is by no means Li Hongzao's dragonf. Then tell me about this... What should we do?"

Hu Chuyuan also thought for a moment and said, "You have to say that the garden must be built, but at the critical time, a few imperial historians who are not afraid of death have to rush out and force the Empress Dowager to take a stand. At least in name, things must be done well. All court decisions do not need to be stamped with the Empress Dowager's seal, but with the imperial seal. Third, this is the most critical thing. You have to set up a really useful team for the emperor. The two positions are the most important, the military aircraft foreman minister and the governor of Zhili... I'm afraid Li Hongzhang and Huaijun are not so reliable!"

Yi Xiao said, "Li Zhongtang said that this matter must be done by you, me and me. Without anyone, we can do it. He should still be towards us."

Hu Chuyuan said oh, and then sneered again, saying, "Your Majesty, you take... but you were deceived by Zhongtang."

Yi asked puzzledly, "What's the point of this?"

Hu Chuyuan said, "You think he is an important minister of the imperial court. He has made great contributions. He has the Huai Army and Beiyang sailors in his hand, and there are many friends. Even if we don't do this, what can the Empress Dowager do to him? But we are in trouble. We have no military power, no qualifications, and no military achievements. In case of failure, what should the Empress Dowager do if she wants to deal with it...!"

At this point, he lowered his voice and quietly warned, "Your Majesty, although you and the empress dowager have a special marriage relationship, if the empress dowager wants to be Wu Zetian, you are the roadblock. The Empress Dowager wants to be a queen, and your son wants to be an emperor, not to mention the relationship between her aunt and nephew, even her own mother and son can...!"

He made another beheading action here, and he didn't say anything clearly.

Yi was silent for a moment and thought in his heart. After a while, he said, "Chu Yuan, I have no intention to be honest with the Empress Dowager... But she has no intention to let go. In case the emperor has something to disoray her... It's really hard to say what's going on later."

Hu Chuyuan said, "Actually, this matter is the family affairs of your royal family in the final analysis, and we outsiders' ministers don't come by the word. As long as you are still alive and can help the emperor's family get things done smoothly, it's easy to say... I'm afraid of you... You have to beware of the East Palace. In a few days, I will find a famous doctor for you in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, install him in your house as a teacher, and secretly check it for you.

The reason why he said this is that he and Yi Xiao know it in their hearts.

At the beginning of the year before last, Yi Xiao had a minor illness, probably lung fever and so on. The more the royal doctor looked at it, the more serious it became. Finally, he had to invite a famous folk doctor surnamed Xu in Yanjing to see a doctor.

This worked, but Cixi soon issued a decree to prevent Yi Xiao to see a folk doctor. She insisted that he continue to take the medicine prescribed by the imperial doctor, half scared and half of the medicine. This disease has not been cured, and Yi Xiao's cough has also been repeated, sometimes good and sometimes bad.

If it is delayed for another year or two, Yi Yan will die.

Hu Chuyuan's words were not too straightforward, and Yi Yi heard them clearly.

Yi Xiao nodded slightly and thought: Hu Chuyuan saw the matter clearly.

Indeed, whether Guangxu can sit on the throne or not really depends on the attitude of the princes and princes on the royal family. In case the clan is in a hurry and rebellious, Yi Yan took a step forward and can't help his son reconcile in the middle, this dragon chair will be uneasy.

Relying only on the attitude of Cixi alone, it is easy to establish an emperor, but difficult to abolish an emperor!

Seeing that Yi Yan generally agreed with him, Hu Chuyuan continued, "Your Majesty, let me be honest. Even if you and I join hands with Li Zhongtang, this matter may not be safe, and we still have to work in the clan. Either you do a cruel thing, or don't be in such a hurry to tear your face.

Yi Xiao couldn't help asking, "What if you are cruel?"

Hu Chuyuan said, "Other people are empty, and I can probably help you smooth it out. I dare not say much. Prince Su and Li Hongzao, I can help you sort it out. The problem is that they don't have much weight at present. If you really dare to do a cruel thing, you can go to the sixth prince of the royal brother. You can find him. As long as you two work together, the big deal will be decided.

Yi Xiao was shocked and his face turned white.

Let him find Yi
