Time Travel to 1859: The Iron-Blooded Soldier King

Prince Gong and the two Empress Dowagers were both stumped by this group of people. If it were just one or two people, they would have been kicked out of the palace long ago. But now, there were princes from more than a dozen families, plus dukes, almost all the relatives and nobles of the Qing Dynasty. Even Prince Gong did not have the courage to turn against them!

Everyone is very angry now, no one can afford to offend this group of people!

Cixi was also dumbfounded. She never expected that Liu Ye would offend such a group of people. Now he was in a difficult situation. Damn it, Liu Ye, why did you have to offend the Seventh Brother when there were so many people you could offend?

At this time, the usually quiet Ci'an spoke up, "Renshou, Yixi, you only know that the world belongs to the Manchus. Don't you know how difficult it is for the Manchus to maintain their rule? If the Eight Banners are still unrivaled, who would be willing to use Han people to maintain their rule? You have the ability to wipe out the Taiping Army and the Nian Bandits. If you do this, I will turn Liu Ye into a commoner. Can you do it?"

Renshou's cheeks twitched. The two palaces and Prince Gong were determined to stick to this point. Not only him, but none of the princes and dukes present had the ability to do so!

Yixi knelt on the ground and replied, "My Queen Mother, the Empress Dowager, I am incompetent and cannot do these things. However, Liu Ye is not the only one who can fight a war. Zeng Guofan and Zuo Zongtang in the south, which one of them was not a great talent? Which one of them was not loyal and did his job? Why is it that Liu Ye is so arrogant and domineering? If Liu Ye is promoted to Governor, all our titles as princes will be worthless!"

Cixi and Prince Gong looked at each other. It seemed that the idea of ​​promoting Liu Ye was completely ruined, at least not now.

Prince Gong took two steps closer to Cixi and whispered, "Empress Dowager, I think we have no choice but to slow down now. Otherwise, it will be difficult to get rid of these people..."

Cixi nodded helplessly, and Prince Gong said, "Alright, you can go down first. I will discuss this matter with the two Empress Dowagers and the military council to see how to deal with it. Let's put this matter aside for now."

Everyone was excited and happy. After all, their efforts were not in vain. As long as Liu Ye's governorship was ruined, it would be a victory. At least Prince Chun had gotten rid of his anger!

However, they were still not satisfied. It was not enough to just ruin the matter, they also wanted Liu Ye to pay a greater price!

After leaving the palace, Yixi called out and everyone gathered around him again.

Yi Xi said in a fierce voice, "This matter is not over yet! The Queen Mother and Sixth Brother still haven't released Liu Ye from his mission. This breath is not enough. Do you have the courage to follow me and lead the men to raid Liu Ye's lair?"

Renshou was startled and said, "Yiyu, don't do anything rash. The Empress Dowager and Prince Gong are already very dissatisfied with this matter. If we go to dig up Liu Ye's lair, the Empress Dowager will be furious. If she investigates, we will be in big trouble!"

Yiyu curled his lips and replied, "Why, Prince Rui, are you scared? You are the head of the Imperial Clan Bureau and a royal prince. Even if you have committed a crime, the Empress Dowager and the others can't do anything to you! Are we just going to let it go after Liu Ye slaps us in the face?"

Yi Yi shouted from the side, "That's right, we men are definitely not finished. We won't move the Beijing camp, but will call a group of servants. Which family doesn't have a hundred or so servants? Pick out those who can be tormented with a stick, ten from each family, and we will go together to smash Liu Ye's mansion! Damn it, we can't let him get away with it. He beat Seventh Brother so badly that his nose and face are swollen, so we will beat him so hard that he can't get out of bed! As long as we don't kill him, the most the Queen Mother will do is fine him a little salary. What, you care about such a small amount of money?"

Yixi and Yiyi fanned the flames with their sarcastic remarks, and the princes and dukes around them started to make a fuss. Yes, take people and raid his lair!

Not long after, Yixi and Yiyi took the lead, gathered two hundred people, and rushed towards Liu Ye's residence. Prince Gong was still discussing matters in the palace and was completely kept in the dark!

As for Liu Ye, it was such an unfortunate coincidence that Liu Ye went to Dongjiaominxiang at this time to visit the American Minister to China, John Warren!

Liu Ye’s absence has made life difficult for the people in the mansion. There are more than a dozen servants and soldiers in Liu Ye’s mansion!

Unfortunately, his ally Guo Songtao was still in the mansion.

The entire Liu Mansion was surrounded by several princes and their men. The servants in the mansion were so scared that their faces turned pale and they dared not move. Only a dozen or so soldiers stood at the gate to check the situation!

At this time, Liu Ye was away, and the person who could take charge was Guo Songtao.

After all, Guo Songtao was still a fifth-rank Hanlin editor in the court. When he saw several princes coming to the gate of the mansion, he had a bad premonition and hurried forward because of their aggressive appearance.

"My Lords, I wonder why you are here?"

Neither Yixi nor Yiyi knew Liu Ye, let alone Guo Songtao, who was as small as a sesame seed.

Someone brought a chair over, and Yiyu sat down, crossed his legs, and asked, "Are you the Liu guy? You don't look that good, do you?"

Guo Songtao didn't know what was going on, but unfortunately his surname happened to be Liu!

Guo Songtao nodded and said, "Your humble servant Guo..."

Before Guo Songtao could finish his words, Yixuan's big feet had already kicked over and knocked Guo Songtao to the ground. Guo Songtao was just a scholar, there was no way he could hide!

The unfortunate Guo Songtao was kicked far away. He grimaced in pain and broke out in a sweat. He felt very confused. Damn it, did I provoke you or offend you?

"Come on, boys! Tear down this yard for me!"

Yixi shouted, and the evil slaves behind him rushed forward. Some of them surrounded Guo Songtao and beat him with fists and kicks!

The rest of the people beat up anyone they saw and smashed anything they found!

The soldiers at the back were not happy about this. They said, "Damn it, I don't care who you are. You actually dared to cause trouble at Lord Liu's house. Are all our brothers in Baoding Town vegetarians?"

Wang Haonan saw a group of vicious slaves rushing in to smash things up, and even knocked down his ally. He immediately flew into a rage and shouted, "Brothers, grab your weapons! Knock them all down, dead or alive. If anything goes wrong, I'll take the blame! Go!"

More than a dozen soldiers could no longer hold back and rushed over with sticks in their hands!

How could the dozen or so vicious slaves who rushed in first be a match for these veterans from Baoding Town? As soon as they reached out, they were knocked down one after another, rolling around on the ground. The brothers were really ruthless, hitting them on the face bones with sticks, which was really painful!

As for the people who surrounded and beat up Guo Songtao, they were even more unlucky. They were not just hit on the face, but on the back of the head!

Before the evil slaves could react, they felt a pain on the back of their heads and rolled over and fainted!
