C965 Outside and Within (2/2)
Since it was a threat, they had to get rid of it, but how to get rid of it was a huge problem. The army of the imperial government had been defeated several times in a row, and even the Beijing had been breached by others.
When Xiao Letian suggested to bring the Tongzhi Emperor away to study, the entire imperial government could only wail and beg. This was such a disgrace, such a disgrace!
Even if you could not beat her in battle and couldn't play with money, you still had more money than her. You wanted to rely on cleanliness to carry out moral kidnapping, but since she was a stranger to the world, you couldn't go to Ryukyu and scold them. No matter how they thought about it, everyone was helpless. Xiao Letian placing his power on the Ryukyu Island which was located overseas was simply a stroke of god's will.
The Central Plains civilization was a continent civilization after all. If you stood in the circle of the continent, they would have ways to fight against you, regardless of whether you were strong or weak. However, when Xiao Letian jumped out of the Three Realms, he was not one of the Five Elemental Realm.
Some said that they wanted to lure the enemy deeper, while others said that they wanted to build a large battleship for this expedition. There were even people who invited the Taoists from Dragon Tiger Mountain and the Lama of Tibet to help them get their hands on this enchanter. Even more ridiculous was that there were people who wanted to reward Xiao Letian for her beauty and make him die of exhaustion in his bed.
Listening to the disorderly discussion, Ci Xi, Yi, Yi Xuan and the others frowned. How long was the face of the going through? In the end, they coughed twice, ”Calm down, you can't even deal with Xiao Letian, let's listen to the empress dowager's opinion. Don't forget, when Yang Zhi betrayed us, if it weren't for his scheme, we would have already lost!”
Back then, when Yang Zhi had betrayed them, the entire Ryukyu had become completely berserk. The currency printing formula had involved a total of tens of billions of gold, and the secret formula had caused a huge impact to the Ryukyu's financial system. At that time, the Ryukyu had even prepared a second plan to attack the Beijing.
At the most critical moment, Ci Xi was the one who held back. He was like a shameless shrew in the countryside, using his complete shamelessness to defeat the overweeningly arrogant Xiao Letian.
How dare you touch a single hair on the head of the imperial court? If you dare to lay your hands on my mother, I will dare to sell my country. Aren't you Han people the most fond of unifying China? I'll break it up for you.
Do you believe that I admit that Yaqub's regime is legal? Do you believe me when I give Guangdong to the British? Do you believe me when I cede the Yun Gui to the French in Guangxi?
Isn't it just selling out the country? If you don't let me down, I will sell my country and borrow foreign soldiers to beat you up. I don't believe that you, Xiao Letian, can be so powerful that you can go against everyone else!
This was truly a barefooted person who was not afraid of wearing shoes, being invincible even if one was lowly! This punch had really hit Xiao Letian's weak spot, which meant that he had gone berserk this time. This caused Xiao Letian to have no choice but to calm down and engage in financial negotiations with the Qing Dynasty.
It was also because of that successful counterattack of Ci Xi's that his reputation in Manchu rose so dramatically.
Ci Xi caressed his long fingernails, and carelessly knocked on the table. You guys, a bunch of men are forcing me, a woman, to stand up for them. you don't blush at all? ”
Yi Yu and Ci Xi had a tacit understanding, of course she wouldn't blush: ”There are a lot of capable people! Since Xiao Letian was someone that even the Jade Emperor couldn't control, then in the end, he would have to rely on the Buddha! ”For the sake of the imperial government's one hundred years of plan, we can only make the empress dowager work harder!”
