    This time when the Yi people went north to negotiate, Xianfeng put his money on Yi? Xingzhen regarded her as a confidant in Xianfeng's eyes. When the Yi people were undecided and asked Concubine Yi, it was actually Xianfeng who gave Yi? and Su.  Shunshang was a strict curse because he wrote to Xingzhen several times, repeatedly telling him not to lose the dignity of the country. He also believed that Xingzhen would always remind the two important ministers what to do and how to do it.  Unfortunately, Xianfeng didn't expect that the person he was sleeping with was not a law-abiding person.

    In fact, Xingzhen could have completely followed Xianfeng's wishes and not come up with any ideas. She could have just told Yi and Hesu Xianfeng's limits. In this way, Xingzhen could stay out of the matter.  But Xingzhen does not want to do this. She wants to further expand her influence. She wants both Yi?  Only with her wisdom and strength can she do it, just like she tidied up Chu Xiu Palace like an iron bucket.

    Xingzhen¡¯s rise to the top didn¡¯t happen overnight, but she got to where she is today step by step.  First, she gained Xianfeng's favor, and by slowly starting to accompany her on the road, Xianfeng gradually became inseparable from her when dealing with political affairs. At the same time, she also learned how to deal with national affairs.  Then she gave birth to Xianfeng's only elder brother so far. The mother was promoted to a noble concubine based on her son's wealth, and married the queen and the imperial concubine.  Consolidating Chu Xiugong's power and making everyone in Chu Xiugong follow him wholeheartedly are Xingzhen's charm and means.

    Now taking advantage of the Xu Jia family murder case, Xingzhen continues to expand her power in the palace, because she has the Shangfang sword given to her by Xianfeng.  After the Xu Jiashi saffron case broke out, Xingzhen immediately rushed eight hundred miles away to report the matter to Xianfeng and Queen Niu Colu who were far away in Chengde. Xianfeng and the queen were naturally furious, and Xianfeng ordered Xingzhen to be released.  Check this matter.  Although the main culprit in the Saffron Case committed suicide in fear of crime, Xingzhen took the opportunity to eliminate many dissidents in the palace and cultivate her own wings. Even key departments such as Taiyuan Hospital had Xingzhen's people. Huang Jing resigned from Taiyuan Hospital.  Judgment is one of them.

    Xingzhen, who has no rivals in the palace except the queen, now plans to use Yiwu to take advantage of the victory and pursue her.  Previously, Sushun used the bank case to expand his influence.  Xingzhen can also do the same to suppress Prince Gong and other forces in the court.  But Xingzhen is a concubine in the palace, so she cannot come forward directly. She needs a spokesperson, and Yi? is undoubtedly the best candidate.

    However, the relationship between Yi? and Xingzhen is always one of mutual use, so Xingzhen wants to see Yi? before he rushes to Dagukou.

    Soon Yi? arrived, and Xingzhen saw him in Chuxiu Palace.  There were only two people in the room, Yi? and Xingzhen.  Although they were separated by a screen, the color of the curling sandalwood smoke was indescribably ambiguous, making Yi? feel a little embarrassed.

    Yehenara Xingzhen was not from a good background, but she was able to stand out among the many concubines in the palace and gained Xianfeng's favor. In addition to Xingzhen's means and resourcefulness.  Her appearance is also an extremely important factor.  Maybe after seeing the old black and white photos of Cixi left by later generations, the world will think that Cixi is ugly, like an old witch, but in terms of the degree of distortion of the black and white photos, those photos can't explain much, not to mention that Cixi was already a  As a person in her sixties, no matter how beautiful a woman is, she cannot stop the ravages of time.  Otherwise, no one would say anything about it.  No matter what, Xingzhen was only in her twenties at this time, which was the most beautiful age for a woman. Yi? had met Xingzhen before, and her beauty was indeed outstanding. Coupled with her unique temperament, Yi?  There is indeed some nostalgia in my heart.

    She is your royal sister-in-law!  Yi? In the end, he reminded himself and secretly calmed down.  Sit up straight.

    "Is it possible for Mr. Liu to go to Dagukou?" Yi? Before he could think of how to speak, Xingzhen spoke first, and without any unnecessary words, he went straight to the topic, which shows that Xingzhen's ability and ability in acting are clear.  Decisive.

    ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? will be a little surprised, and he will come back to his senses a little, when he was playing the prelude.  Xianfeng also liked to ask about the calculation of the percentage. When Xingzhen asked, Yi? felt a little uncomfortable, but he still replied: "There is Mr. Su on the side to help. There is always a calculation of 70% or 80%."

    He could vaguely see the beauty behind the screen taking a sip of tea, and then the charming and bright voice came: "Sushun is used to being arrogant and domineering, and if you don't deal with the Sixth Master, aren't the Sixth Master afraid that he will ruin something big?"  I am not afraid of powerful enemies, but of internal enemies. I feel that after Mr. Liu arrives at Dagokou, his first priority is to send Sushun back to the capital."

    Xingzhen's words did not avoid anything, which surprised Rang Yi? "If Sushun were present, I'm afraid Master Liu wouldn't be able to use his tricks, and with him around, I'm afraid his arrogant character would ruin the big thing. Yiwu is currently  This is the first thing on the emperor's mind. The Sixth Master has suffered from the filthy anger of this slave Sushun before. Isn't it time to retaliate properly? The Sixth Master can rest assured that I will stand by the Emperor's side.  Speaker."

    The tone was still so calm, but Yi? was greatly moved when he heard it. Xingzhen had settled the fight between Yi? and Sushun at Dagukou in just a few words, andZhenzhen also expressed her support for Yihe and helped him make his case in front of the emperor, so that Yihe would have no worries.

    Yi? said calmly: "Thank you, Madam-in-law, for reminding me. I will definitely act accordingly."

    The beautiful woman behind the screen hummed softly and then said: "This negotiation with the barbarians, regardless of whether the cause of the matter is right or wrong, but Britain and France have made it clear this time that they are using the topic as an excuse, and they must fulfill the agreement to amend the treaty. Previously, I  I also talked to Mr. Liu about the conditions that Britain and France may propose to amend the treaty. Does Mr. Liu have any countermeasures?"

    Yi? said in embarrassment: "The Yi people came with narrow boats and powerful cannons, and they ran on the sea like flying. Now we, the Qing Dynasty, are fighting fiercely with the long-haired rebels, and it is difficult to have the confidence to do so. The conditions proposed by the Yi people are not to mention the emperor.  , even my younger brother feels it is too harsh, I am afraid that this trip will not be easy to deal with."

    The beautiful woman behind the screen sighed quietly and said: "This errand is really embarrassing for Mr. Liu." Yi? But he didn't know that the beautiful woman was thinking in her heart, hoping that Guizi Liu could stay in history to negotiate with the British and French who occupied Beijing.  In the end, although a treaty was signed that was humiliating and humiliating the country, the ability of Guiziliu to be able to continue the negotiation under such circumstances showed the ability of Guiziliu.

    Following the beauty, she continued: "I don't know how to act like a woman in this palace." Hearing this, Yi? secretly cursed, this woman is really not simple. She clearly asked her to enter the palace just to handle errands, but she still treated her like a woman.  People think of themselves.

    "But I remembered my dealings with some people in the market before I entered the palace. Everyone in the world comes here for profit, and the Yi people are no exception. What about opening a trading port, and legalizing the opium trade?  Everyone wants to get more benefits, to put it bluntly, they want to get more money." Yi? Listened quietly, feeling that Xingzhen's words made sense.

    "At the end of the day, negotiation means asking for a high price and paying back the money on the spot. I believe that no matter what conditions the Yi people put forward, it is definitely not the Yi people's limit. It is best for Mr. Liu to find out the Yi people's limit first.  , if you can't find it out, you have to find a way to force it out, so you can be invincible." Yi? couldn't help but responded, he had been planning how to deal with it these days, and thought of some vague things, but now  Be careful, and those fuzzy things become clear.

    "Another point is that although the Yi people are powerful at sea, they are still wary. I heard that the Yi people fought a big battle with the Rakshasa Kingdom in the west, which happened to be when the soldiers and horses were weak, so it is unlikely that they will  A war has started. As long as Mr. Liu can grasp the severity, he is not afraid of the threat from the barbarians." Yi? He only learned about the war between Britain, France and Russia after hearing Ronglu talk about it. Ronglu came back from Guangzhou, and there were many barbarians there.  It¡¯s not surprising to know this, but how did Concubine Yi know about it?  Yi? couldn't help but become curious.

    "The last thing is cooperation. Although the Yi people have repeatedly argued to remain neutral, haven't they sold guns and cannons to us in the same way? I want to come here so that Mr. Liu can discuss more cooperation with the Yi people. If there is cooperation,  We can ease the relationship, and if we cooperate, we can have common interests. Today, I saw the newly built school next to Xian'an Palace. Xiang Lei's craftsmanship is indeed good, but I heard that the Yi people have something called cement.  It is also extremely reliable to build houses, build bridges and pave roads. If we can purchase more or attract foreigners to set up factories, we can do it, and the people will have novel things for use. Why not benefit the country and the people?"  Yi? was greatly surprised. He didn't expect Xingzhen to have such a far-sighted view. However, he didn't know that Xingzhen had only touched upon the superficial aspects of the Westernization Movement in advance.

    After the Second Opium War, after being severely punished by the foreign powers, a wave of Westernization Movement was set off throughout the Qing Dynasty. Purchasing foreign goods and introducing Western factories became the mainstream. From the imperial court to local governors, everything was done  Special handling, because these foreign affairs can bring economic benefits, and the tax collection by the court mentioned by Xingzhen is just one of them, it is more about allowing this ancient country to reconnect with world civilization.

    "Cement is just one of the things. I heard that there are also things like fertilizers that can increase food production. Things like these are better than opium. And no matter what is sold, the Yi people think that as long as they can make money, they will sell it.  Here you go, so Liu Ye doesn¡¯t have to just be busy rejecting the legalization of opium, but should think more about introducing other useful things, so that the Yi people can give up the idea of ??continuing to sell opium in large quantities." Yi? sighed in his heart, and endured  I couldn't help but feel a little resentful, and the bitterness I felt when Daoguang passed the throne to Xianfeng came back again. Why is God so unfair?  Why did the fourth brother take all the good things?  Why is he so angry? There is no woman as beautiful and knowledgeable as Xingzhen around him?

    Xingzhen didn't think too much and just said what she was thinking. She let Yi? see her power. When fighting in court, you don't need to hide your clumsiness. Only by showing your personality charm and methods can you win over.  More people's hearts, which is why in later history, Hitler still carried out tavern riots when he had no advantage. After all, no one would be willing to follow someone who has no responsibility and courage.

    ? ?Tian Xingzhen's performance was very successful. Not only did she push Sushun aside with a few words, but she also quietly gave a hint to Yi?'s heart. The relationship between the two gradually changed from cooperation to cooperation.  , the equality of the alliance becomes Xingzhen's dominant position, this step is also very critical.
