C3591 Kick Widow Door (2/2)
”Explain!” You're asking I for an explanation? ”What's there to explain? It's such a big deal …” Ci Xi leaned on the soft couch, his entire body was lazy and his words carried a sense of weakness.
But this kind of strange energy made General Gui Six and Yi Xuan even more furious!
”Empress Dowager! National capital! This is shaking the country! ”
”Chendi doesn't need to talk about whether or not he has a personal authority, but I do want to appoint Gordon as the head of the Expedition to meet Zuo Zongtang … ”What does that mean?”
He knew that his son's personal governance was a hurdle for General Gui. The Prime Minister's authority was simply too great, and after Tongzhi's personal governance, he had to bargain over the amount of authority he needed to hand over.
Disputes were unavoidable, so let's fight!
”Isn't it just a Expedition? Did the His Majesty not even have the rights to do such a funny thing? Furthermore, the Expedition is circling around the Pamir plateau, they are all going to be overseas … ”
”If you don't use a foreigner, who do you want to use? ”Use you …”
”You …” Yi Nan was struck dumb by Ci Xi, thinking in his heart: What's wrong with this woman today? Why was it so soft that it was as disgusting as a bean bun?
Seeing how Ci Xi's face was flushed red and was leaning lazily on the soft cushion without any proper sitting posture, it showed that Ci Xi did not care about this meeting at all.
Even through the curtain, he couldn't see Ci Xi's eyes clearly. If he could see Ci Xi's peach blossom eyes with his own eyes, he would know that this woman was looking for a man last night!
And he was even looking for it so well!
When Prince of Alcohol saw that his brother and sister-in-law had started arguing, he was still as friendly as before. Calm down, calm down! Empress Dowager, Sixth Brother is not talking about the Expedition, but about the matter of the foreigners meeting with our Qing officials! ”
”How can Gordon see Zuo Zongtang? The Chinese are already deeply fearful of the imperial court for obtaining such an army. How could they let them deal with foreign devils? ”
”Hehe …” Seventh Bro, cut the crap, what's wrong with dealing with foreign devils? You can stop him just because you want to? Are there not many foreign devils in Jiangnan? ”
”How many foreign devils are there in the Shanghai Concession? Xiang Army and the rest want to contact the foreign devils, what do you think the imperial government would think? ”
”Don't say any of this, what are you two here for?” Take it out to let I see … ”
”Pah …” ”If you want to blind all of you, I'll be puzzled. If a bunch of men run into trouble, they won't be able to solve it. It'll be up to us ladies to take care of it …”
”And then you still dare to run in front of me to pressure me? If you had the ability, you would have flattened the incident at the beacon? You think you can force Ceng Guofan to give up? ”
”Why didn't you make a ruckus the day before yesterday? When the Beijing's public opinion is flying high in the sky, what about your abilities? ”
”Now that the His Majesty has made a Expedition, are you trying to bully a widow like me when she's unemployed? Kicking the widow isn't so obvious! ”
”You …” After being scolded by Ci Xi, General Gui Six jumped up from the chair and stretched his hands out to vent his anger, but he was speechless!
”Ci Xi! Don't be shameless... ~ Does Gordon have the position of general! ”Let me ask you in a famous way, are you two going to appoint foreign devils as officials?”
”Speak!” ”Is it …”
