Li Zhen nodded, waved his hand and said, "Okay, I'll go later." Ye Chengzhong respectfully stepped back. Li Zhen looked at Sun Youcheng and others and solemnly said, "Please rest assured, I will definitely suppress the bandits as soon as possible." , when Nanjing is captured, we will give you a certain amount of compensation. Please feel free to go back and wait for my good news."
After a pause, Li Zhen said again: "The Queen Mother invites you, but I have something else to do, so I'll take my leave first."
Before Sun Youcheng and others could say anything, Li Zhen had already left the Chinese army's tent.
Immediately, soldiers came in and urged Sun Youcheng and others to leave the Chinese army's tent. Braving the heavy rain, the group walked out of the Chinese army's tent, left the camp, and stood outside the camp. Kuang Jiacheng looked at Sun Youcheng and asked: " Lao Sun, what do you mean by Li Zhen, and what compensation can you give us?"
Sun Youcheng laughed and said: "How do I know? I am not the roundworm in Li Zhen's stomach. Besides, we have been gritting our teeth for several months. Do we still care about this little time? If we wait another month, if Li Zhen doesn't Send troops, we won't care. During this period, I hope you won't act out of anger. If someone angers Li Zhen, I will never help wipe the butt."
He stared at everyone and said in a low tone: "Li Zhen is the imperial envoy of the Jiangbei camp. He holds military power. Now he is the auxiliary minister of the imperial court. Even the emperor's son is with him in the camp. If Li Zhen wants to deal with it, We, then we will definitely die, there is no room for resistance at all, all we can do now is follow Li Zhen and try to get benefits from it."
After finishing speaking, Sun Youcheng got on his carriage and left Jiangbei Camp.
After Kuang Jiacheng and other gentry from Yangzhou heard this, they immediately left the camp with a hint of unwillingness.
During the emperor's camp, Cixi and Ci'an were sitting on the main seats. Li Zhen quickly came to the door of the camp, handed the umbrella to the soldier, shook off the rainwater on his body, and strode into the camp. He clasped his fists respectfully and said: " Li Zhen, the minister, pays homage to the two empress dowagers." He bowed to Ci'an and Ci Xi respectively, and then asked, "I wonder why the empress dowager summoned the ministers."
Ci'an chuckled and said, "I came to see you today because I have something to discuss with you."
Li Zhendao: "Please speak clearly, Queen Mother."
Ci'an said unhurriedly: "A few days ago, your son Li Chongxiao and daughter Li Chongxuan turned one year old. It was very lively. The boy Li Chongxiao looks like a tiger-like person and is very smart. The girl Li Chongxuanji is lively and cute. Let me and My sister is so envious."
Li Zhen was confused and couldn't figure out what it meant.
Ci'an and Ci'an didn't care about their own sons, but they came to care about his son and daughter. Li Zhen waited quietly for the next step, but a bad feeling arose in his heart.
I always feel like something is wrong.
Cixi sat aside and watched quietly. Seeing the slight change in the expression on Li Zhen's face, she felt a little uneasy. After all, what she discussed with Ci'an was likely to be opposed by Li Zhen.
Ci'an usually didn't care about things, but she attached great importance to the foundation of the Qing Dynasty. She and Cixi had different ideas. When she thought of the nobility of the Aixinjueluo family, she felt extremely proud. Ci'an put on a smile and said: "Master Li's The child is one year old, and it has been nearly seven months since the emperor was born. The little emperor is young, but he is extremely smart. Moreover, the position of the emperor's concubine is vacant. My sister and I discussed it and decided to discuss it with Mr. Li. We will marry into the in-laws and choose Mr. Li’s daughter as his concubine.”
Li Zhen's eyes widened, and he didn't expect Ci'an to actually bring up the idea of a baby kiss.
This suggestion made Li Zhen very unhappy.
Li Zhen's daughter is not a victim of profit. Li Zhen looked serious and said without hesitation: "Reporting to the Queen Mother, my daughter is young. You also saw that she grabbed a wooden knife when she arrested Zhou. When she grows up, She must be extremely naughty and unfit to be the emperor's concubine."
Cixi was worried about her son's future and continued: "Although the child has caught a small wooden knife, it does not mean that he will be naughty in the future. With Admiral Li's tutoring and Mrs. Li's teaching, the child will definitely be a noble lady."
Li Zhen's expression became gloomy and his face looked ugly.
When he said his daughter was naughty, he was just saying no.
As a parent, do you really think your children are naughty?
Li Zhen didn't know whether Cixi was pretending to be confused or really didn't understand. However, it was impossible for Li Zhen to push his daughter into the pit of fire. The emperor had three palaces and six courtyards, and countless women. The women in the palace were interested in each other. There was even more intrigue, and Li Zhen naturally did not want Li Chongxuan to marry the little emperor.
Moreover, Ci'an only offered the position of concubine to one concubine, which made Li Zhen secretly despise her.
Not to mention the concubine, even the queen, Li Zhen would not agree.
Li Zhen didn't want to break his face and said respectfully: "Queen Mother, my daughter is really not suitable to be the emperor's concubine. She is young and doesn't know what she will be like when she grows up. Please forgive me, Queen Mother."
Li Zhen refused again and again, but Ci'an became angry.
She slapped the table and said with an angry expression: "The emperor's selection of concubines is a matter of course. It is an honor for your Li family to choose your daughter. But you, Li Zhen, have repeatedly retreated. Could it be that you are disrespecting the emperor's order?" Ci'an. I was very dissatisfied with Li Zhen. I didn't expect that Li Zhen would refuse, and my impression of Li Zhen plummeted even more.
Cixi's face changed drastically, and she had a premonition that something was not going to happen.
What she said was gentle but strong, with a bit of thorn in it, trying to force Li Zhen to agree, without breaking the relationship with Li Zhen. Ci'an's words suddenly made the atmosphere awkward.
Li Zhen sneered, his voice became louder, and he said tit for tat: "I, Li Zhen's daughter, do not admire power or talk about money, as long as she can be safe and happy, the Li family has me here, and there is no need to pretend to be the emperor's concubine in the ancestral grave." Qing Yan, if the Queen Mother wants to choose a concubine for the Emperor, she can send an order to the officials all over the world. I believe there are many people who want to be the uncle or father-in-law of the country."
"Wow, wow,,."
The little emperor Zai Chun was startled by Li Zhenba's raised voice and burst into tears.
Li Zhen glanced in the direction of the little emperor, saluted Cixi and Ci'an, then turned and left. As he walked, he said: "Let alone a small concubine, even if you are given the position of empress, I will not agree to it." , I hope that the two queen mothers can focus on teaching the emperor, and there will be fewer such moths."
Li Zhen had already left the camp, but his voice kept echoing.
Cixi and Ci'an looked at each other. Immediately, Cixi sighed and said, "Sister, what you just said was too direct. It angered Li Zhen and we were all passive."
Ci'an snorted and said in a domineering tone: "Now, the Ai family has seen through this guy's face. He is too arrogant. He can't even look down on the position of queen. With him being a small admiral and a Han, His daughter wants to be a queen, but she is talking nonsense."
When Cixi saw that Ci'an was speaking freely, the corners of her mouth twitched slightly.
This woman is too stubborn.
What's going on now? I'm still thinking about the rules of the Qing Dynasty. Can the rules of the Qing Dynasty be used as food? Obviously not. Can the current situation be saved? Obviously not. The only person who can save the situation is Li Zhen.
one person.
Cixi felt helpless, what a pig-like fool in front of her.
