    "What the prince said is absolutely true." Lin Yizhe knew that Prince Chun said this intentionally to help him. He carefully chose his words and tried to dispel Empress Dowager Cixi's concerns about borrowing money from foreign countries. "It involves the fundamental rights and interests of the country. Naturally, the irresponsible  If I am a small person and someone is a big person, I might as well make a concession in exchange for a loan for mutual benefit." Empress Dowager Cixi seemed to hear something from Lin Yizhe's explanation. She looked at Lin Yizhe and smiled.  He asked, "Lin Yizhe, have you been thinking about borrowing foreign debt for a long time?" After hearing what the Empress Dowager Cixi said, Lin Yizhe couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart.  "The Empress Dowager is wise," Lin Yizhe said, "When I was on a mission to Europe, I saw that the royal families and governments of England and France often borrowed money from merchants when they were short of money, and they were able to turn the crisis around. I was very surprised.  Pay more attention to know the secret, so I boldly made this suggestion. As for the specific handling, I should have detailed instructions and ask the Queen Mother to meet with the ministers. " "Haha, Lin Yizhe, you.  Since we can come up with detailed instructions, it means that this matter is well established." Empress Dowager Cixi said with a smile.  "The Empress Dowager is wise, I just have a little clue." When Lin Yizhe heard that the Empress Dowager Cixi had intentionally agreed, a big stone fell to the ground in his heart.  Persuading the Empress Dowager Cixi to agree to borrow foreign debt was actually an important step in allowing Rothschild Bank to enter China in the "Jerusalem of the East" plan set by him and Nathan!  "Lin Yizhe, tell me, which money merchant in Thailand and Spain is capable of such a big deal?" asked the Empress Dowager Cixi.  "To the Queen Mother, it's the Rothschilds, a Thai money merchant." Lin Yizhe replied.  "This money dealer specializes in money lending business and has strong financial resources. The governments of various countries in Europe and Europe have many contacts with it, and its reputation is the first in Europe." "Lin Yizhe, how can the Rothschild family be willing to lend money to the Qing Dynasty? The so-called 'nothing'  "It's too early to make a profit. What did they do when they loaned us money?" Prince Chun interjected and asked.  "Returning to your Majesty, this Rothschild family belongs to the Jewish race. Their country died early, and their people fled all over the world. Some of them stayed in China during the Tang and Song Dynasties." Lin Yizhe said, "The Jews are good at financial management and business.  He also lost his country and was often discriminated against in Europe. Only those who stayed in China were treated well, so he was very grateful to China and wanted to repay the favor. He also wanted to do things for China and win over China.  "If you have mercy, you can get a small place where your people can live in peace." "Since this Jewish people are good at business and have a lot of wealth, shouldn't they buy land to live in the Western countries?" Prince Chun asked curiously, "Return to your Majesty's words.  , this Jewish people has been bullied because of the country's demise. Although they have wealth, their country does not allow them to buy land. Therefore, if the Jews in Europe meet one or two wise rulers,  Life is better, but if you encounter a tyrant and a traitor, you are often the target of robbery, and your situation is quite miserable." Lin Yizhe said, "Three years ago, Russia used pretexts to seize their property and expel their clans on a large scale. The dead were lying on the road.  It's extremely pitiful. But I, the benevolent person of the Celestial Empire, admires him all over the world and is willing to come to China to help. " "I didn't expect that there would be such twists and turns." After hearing Lin Yizhe's answer, the Empress Dowager couldn't help but feel sorry for the Jewish people.  Feeling compassion, "The situation of this Jewish people is so miserable" "The Empress Dowager is wise, a family losing its country is like a son losing its mother. It has no protection and everyone bullies it." Lin Yizhe said, "My lord.  Jianyan borrowed foreign debts not for his own fame and fortune, but because he wanted to do something extraordinary and use his financial resources to prosper the Qing Dynasty. In today's world, countries are competing for supremacy. If they don't break the old stereotypes and work hard to strengthen themselves, the future of the country will be worrying.  I know very well that if I do something like this, I will be accused of being a traitor, but if my reputation is damaged, it is better to become a minister of the country's subjugation!" Lin Yizhe said, naturally entering an impassioned state (his acting skills are comparable to those from a theater troupe)  , and kowtowed to the ground repeatedly, the Empress Dowager Cixi smiled slightly and said, "Li Lianying, help Lin Yizhe get up quickly." Li Lianying stepped forward to help Lin Yizhe get up. The Empress Dowager Cixi looked at Lin Yizhe and said kindly: "Lin Yizhe, just let go of this matter.  Come on, don't be afraid of being scolded. There are always people like us to support you. This time when setting up the Navy Yamen, I am afraid that you will be too junior and promoted too quickly, so I want Master Qi to support you so that you can do things with peace of mind.  Come on, don't think too much." "I thank the Queen Mother for her kindness!" Lin Yizhe kowtowed again hurriedly, "I will go through fire and water, even if I die!" At the moment of kowtow, Lin Yizhe knew that he was safe at this step.  took a step forward.  I wonder what Nathan and Sarah will think when they hear the news?   No matter what, the dream of a powerful country is no longer far away from today!  After talking for a while, Empress Dowager Cixi ended the summons, Lin Yizhe resigned, and Li LianchengAfter leaving the main hall, he was walking when he saw Liu Chengyin rushing towards him.  Lin Yizhe noticed a rare look of sadness on Liu Chengyin's face, and couldn't help but feel secretly shocked.  Liu Chengyin noticed the concerned look cast by Lin Yizhe, smiled kindly at Lin Yizhe, and quickly entered the hall.  Lin Yizhe and Li Lianying looked at each other. Li Lianying seemed to know why Liu Chengyin was acting like this. She shook her head slightly at Lin Yizhe and lightly slashed down with her palm.  Lin Yizhe suddenly woke up and couldn't help but sigh secretly in his heart.  He has already guessed what Liu Chengyin did just now.  In the main hall, Prince Chun also said goodbye to Cixi. When Prince Chun left the main hall, Liu Chengyin reported to the Empress Dowager Cixi in a low voice: "For Lord Buddha, the servant has finished cooking" The Empress Dowager Cixi noticed the sad look on Liu Chengyin's face.  I couldn't help but sigh.  "Okay, just finish cooking" The seemingly ordinary exchange between the two people actually represents the extremely bloody scene that just passed in the Forbidden City In a narrow courtyard, a group of people wearing white clothes were tied up behind their backs.  The remaining maids and eunuchs were kneeling on the ground, trembling and kowtowing to beg for mercy.  "Long Live Lord left alone - as Long Live Lord's slaves, you should go to the underground palace to serve Long Live Lord for thousands of years!" Liu Chengyin hardened his heart, looked at the fifty or so palace maids and eunuchs, and shouted in hiss, "  This is the blessing you have gained in your previous life" Hearing Liu Chengyin's words, the kneeling palace maids and eunuchs trembled even more.  "This slave is wronged! - General Manager, please spare your life!" Zhou Deying, who was tied up, screamed.  "This is the order of the Empress Dowager, you can go on your way with peace of mind!" Liu Chengyin turned a deaf ear to Zhou Deying's howl, and said to himself, waving his hands to the eunuchs who were executing the execution.  The two eunuchs first dragged Zhou Deying to the ground and held him down. The other two eunuchs raised the bamboo board and hit Zhou Deying hard on the buttocks.  Over there, two more eunuchs dragged Du Zhixi, another eunuch of Emperor Tongzhi, and beat him severely.  "Ah! - Chief General, please forgive me! It's none of the slaves' business! It's Cheng Beile and Wang Qingqi's fault! They were having fun with the emperor, and they have nothing to do with the slaves" After a few slaps with the board, Zhou Deying suffered.  He couldn't stand it any longer and immediately started to howl like ghosts and wolves.  Hearing Zhou Deying's nonsense, Liu Chengyin's face darkened and he coughed heavily.  The executioner¡¯s eunuch realized what he was doing, and suddenly the board he swung changed direction and hit Zhou Deying hard on the head. Zhou Deying immediately stopped moving and his body stopped fluttering.  Liu Chengyin shuddered when he saw the blood and brain matter flowing down from Zhou Deying's head, and couldn't help but turn his head.  Over there, before Du Zhixi could shout, the same board hit him hard on the head. He died without even making a sound.  When the other execution eunuchs saw what was happening, they all realized what was going on. They all pointed their sticks at the prisoner's head. Not long after, more than thirty eunuchs who had served Emperor Tongzhi were all executed with sticks.  While these eunuchs were being executed, about twenty maids who had been visited by Emperor Tongzhi were also dragged into a room and pushed to the ground. Several strong eunuchs held thick wooden sticks and beat them violently.  He hit them hard on the head and beat them to death one by one.  After the execution, although Liu Chengyin felt sad, he still stepped forward to inspect the corpses one by one. After confirming that all the palace maids who had been around Emperor Tongzhi and the eunuchs who served Emperor Tongzhi were all dead, he did not want to for a moment.  After staying for a while, he hurried back to resume his life After leaving the palace gate, Lin Yizhe went straight to Guo Songtao's apartment in Xianliang Temple. He originally planned to tell Guo Songtao about the appointment news disclosed by the Empress Dowager Cixi today, so that he could be prepared (formal decree  They had to wait until the new emperor ascended the throne to issue the order in the name of the new emperor), but unexpectedly, he saw Liu Xihong again at Guo Songtao!  ¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù "Guo Songtao's Diary": "On the first day of the first lunar month of the first year of Guangxu, Zeng Guoquan made an appointment with Gongbao to have a meal and saluted Yu Yi in front of the Guandi Temple.  I asked for signatures and asked about the overall situation, and then went to Zhou Shaonong's place to gather friends. When I was out, Liu Yunsheng came to Yu's place, but he went to Lansun Shangshu's house to pay New Year's greetings. " "On the third day of the lunar month, Yang Qiufan, Chen Shoushan and others.  "On the fourth day of the lunar month, there was heavy snow, and before all the friends arrived, Lin Kunyu and Liu Yunsheng came and talked for half a day before leaving." "On the eighth day of the lunar month, I still haven't been summoned.  I felt uneasy and didn't go out. Liu Yunsheng came and talked with me for a long time, and I felt a little at ease.After your Majesty's visit, Lin Kunyu and many friends gathered at home to talk about your Majesty's visit. Liu Yunsheng came to congratulate you and tell you good news. He was very happy.  " "On the 11th, I went to pay a visit to Lansun, Shangshu, and informed him of the envoy's mission.  Lan Sun also asked Yu why he was slandered when he was fuming in Guangdong. He said that the events of that day were very detailed, and Yu was very surprised. He didn't know where he knew it.  (Isn¡¯t this something obvious?) ¡°On the 19th, Liu Yunsheng paid (sent delicious food).  "(To be continued.
