Chapter 275 Being a bitch
Zai Yi is extremely smart. Although he is only seven years old, he has already mastered the skills to survive in this world.

As long as you know how to please your mother, you can run rampant in this world.

As for the silly imperial brother, I could send him three miles away happily with just a few words of flattery.

As long as you don't want to rebel, that's the best position in the world.

My royal brother sits on the throne and dozes off all day long. How tiring it must be. Only a fool would be an emperor.

When the younger brother of the emperor works hard to govern the country, he will lose his head, and everyone hopes to just eat and wait for death. Doing nothing, living a carefree life, and enjoying life for more than a hundred years, that is Zai Yi's highest ideal.

In his mother's eyes, he was well-behaved, sweet-talking and able to coax people. Once his mother was not around, he was a little bully and no one dared to mess with him. When he wanted to go out for a walk, the people below him could only follow him and no one dared to stop him.

Humming the incomprehensible Huiban Erhuang, Zai Yi curiously went to the dilapidated house next to the villa. I want to go and see what strange things are there. My mother insisted on taking me to kowtow.

"stop!"

A situation arose that was beyond Zai Yi's ability to understand.

Several soldiers from the Huai Army guard platoon who were on guard suddenly blocked the way in front of him, took out their carbines from behind and pointed them at him.

Zai Yi straightened up and put his hands behind his back, "How dare you! Do you know who I am? Someone, come! Someone is rebelling!"

Your brother's call was very effective. Several palace guards suddenly jumped out from nowhere and stood in front of you, holding all kinds of dark green beads in their hands.

The guards saw the dragon-embroidered robe on the prince's body, and many of the guards who stopped him were wearing yellow jackets, but it was useless.

All the guards were from Jiangyan, and many were from Luzhuang and Panjiawei. They only recognized Shao Dashuai. Even if the emperor came in person, it would still be useless, not to mention wearing a yellow jacket or a dragon robe.

Seeing the guards appear, all the guards who had not taken action lowered their guns to their shoulders, loaded bullets, and aimed at the prince and his gang.

Hu Liuniang rushed out without blaming her subordinates. She sneered at the masters of the inner palace opposite and said, "The commander is in charge. No one is allowed to get close."

Seeing the conflict escalate, An Dehai ran out from his hiding place in a panic, "Stop it! It's a misunderstanding. We are a family, a family."

The palace guards put away their weapons immediately, but the guards did not put away their guns and all looked at Hu Liuniang.

An Dehai came to Hu Liuniang and bowed to her, "Greetings, young master."

Hu Liuniang knew what An Dehai was. He actually saluted her, and she was confused. How did he get the title of young master?
After An Dehai finished his greeting, he came close to Hu Liuniang, winked mysteriously, pointed his chin towards Zai Yi, and said in a low voice, "Young Master, please take a closer look at your brother's appearance."

Hu Liuniang really didn't notice it, but when she took a closer look, she was immediately stunned.

There is no DNA testing these days, and there is no need for testing even if there is one. The Shao family’s genes are too strong, they are simply cut from the same mold.

Hu Liuniang, the reason she is standing guard here is, of course, because she and the young emperor Tongzhi were both bystanders and eyewitnesses of the accident seven years ago.

The four-year-old child at that time had no memories, but Hu Liuniang knew everything.

She saw Shao Quanzhong went straight to her old residence when he arrived in Shunyi. There were also experts guarding the old residence. She guessed that Shao Quanzhong had planned to meet his old lover. Most likely, after so many years, the maid now has great power in the palace.

She didn't always follow behind Shao Quanzhong, and she didn't know when the boss contacted his old lover. She was a little dissatisfied, but she still had to fulfill her responsibility as a bodyguard.

Seeing the royal brother confirmed his thoughts, and he was in a dilemma at the time, "Eunuch An, look at the current situation, we can't let the young master go."

An Dehai smiled and said, "It's okay, young master, relax, I will take care of this matter."

Arriving in front of Zai Yi, An Dehai bowed and lowered his voice, "Master, I have something good to show you."

An Dehai took out a small porcelain cup with a lid from his arms, opened the lid, and inside were two ivory dices.

An Dehai closed the lid of the porcelain cup and shook the porcelain bowl, making a rustling sound. Suddenly, he stopped with a snap and opened the lid to let Zai Yi take a look. "Young master, do you think this is big or small?"

Zai Yi had sharp eyes and had already seen the points, "Big!"

An Dehai smiled and opened the lid. Zai Yi scratched his head, "Huh? Why did it become smaller?"

"Come, come, Master, I will teach you this technique."

You have to learn this. Next time you gamble with Zai Cheng, your chances of winning will greatly increase. You can even lose to your brother the emperor on purpose.

Zai Yi immediately forgot about the strange thing about the broken house, and happily followed An Dehai back to the villa to learn a craft.

The alarm was lifted, and the guards and servants reconciled at once. The guards stood guard with their backs to the house, while the expert servants were deployed everywhere, working together to keep watch for the unexpected meeting of the two important figures.

The two people in the room didn't know that the other was an important person. Cixi used all her skills to please and serve Shao Quanzhong, acting like a gentle, considerate and virtuous servant.

Neither Ronghui nor Wenxiu, as the legal wives, would serve Shao Quanzhong in this manner, which greatly satisfied Shao Quanzhong's overflowing feudal patriarchy.

Shao Quanzhong didn't know that he was truly enjoying emperor-level treatment.

What? The Empress Dowager can't serve people like this? Hehe, what is Cixi's origin? To be precise, she was the concubine of Emperor Xianfeng, who had to be suppressed by the main wife and relied on the emperor's favor to gain power. As one of the "Five Springs in the Harem", she had to compete for favor with Xinghuachun, Haitangchun, Wulingchun and Mudanchun, four powerful rivals from Yangzhou courtyards who were skilled in charm, singing and dancing.

In order for her to win the palace fight and climb to a high position, besides being scheming, it was necessary for her to be both beautiful and talented to satisfy the emperor.

Now that she has gained status thanks to her son, she no longer has to serve others, but that doesn't mean she has lost her top-notch abilities in this area.

It's lonely at the top. Going back to my old job and lowering my profile made me feel more at ease. I realized the value of a woman in the feudal era.

A woman who is thirty is like tofu dregs, that is, the poor people who live in poverty. In the era of better living conditions, women in their thirties still call themselves fairies.

Cixi's living conditions were certainly top-notch. Without the halo of the Empress Dowager, as a woman, she was definitely still a fairy-like mature woman.

Shao Quanzhong had been struggling fiercely in his heart. He was disturbed by Cixi's charm, but he always felt that it would be bad to break his oath and make another mistake. He suddenly slapped his forehead and said, "By the way, what's your name? What's your position in the palace now? Can't palace maids be sent out when they reach a certain age? Come out and follow me, and be my concubine."

In this way, it is not considered a mistake, but it means that I get on the bus first and buy the ticket later. All my previous mistakes have been eliminated. I am really smart.

Cixi hesitated for a moment. She didn't want to kill Shao Quanzhong now. Instead, she didn't want to know his name. She wanted to part ways with him after their romantic encounter. However, he violated the unspoken rules and asked her.

Today was an accidental encounter, you can’t do this often.

Ci'an had the will of Emperor Xianfeng in her hands. If Cixi did anything that was detrimental to the Aixinjueluo family, Ci'an could use her power as the empress to kill her. As long as Ci'an was around, Cixi would not dare to make any mistakes.

If Ci'an knew that she had cuckolded the late emperor, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Cixi rolled her eyes and said, "I am a maid serving Master Dong Fo, my name is Ping'er. Master Dong Fo won't let me leave, so I can't leave. You should just give up on this idea."

Shao Quanzhong felt relieved. It was just a maid, no big deal. When I meet the young emperor tomorrow, I will ask Master Dong Fo for a maid. She will definitely not offend a warlord like me.

Cixi looked back and smiled, reaching for the buttons of her cheongsam, as if time had gone backwards and history had repeated itself, but without the helplessness and panic of those years.

Shao Quanzhong no longer had any psychological burden, but he was no longer as passive as he had been in the past. He only heard a "swish" sound in the dark room, and heard Cixi's exclamation, "Master, be gentle."

……

……

Half a day later, when it was already dark, Shao Quanzhong walked out of his old residence, looking radiant. He waved his hand and said, "Sixth Lady, let's go to the camp outside Xizhimen."

A platoon of guards mounted their horses together, and with the clatter of horses' hooves, they were all gone in an instant.

Cixi's weak voice came from inside the room, "Xiao Anzi, call Ping'er."

The royal sedan came out of the villa and was carried directly to the door of Shaw's former residence.

At this time, Cixi did not dare to be so extravagant, and there was no interior wallpaper worth 70 million taels of silver in the sedan chair. But the Holy Mother Empress Dowager was at that level, and she also had a bright yellow sedan chair carried by 16 people.

Cixi was helped into the sedan chair by Ping'er, who ordered, "Take the sedan chair and return to the palace."

"Mother, why don't you go to worship?"

Cixi collapsed in the sedan chair, too weak to answer. The other party was not dead, what was there to worship? Not only was he not dead, he was alive and kicking, full of energy, which was really unexpected.

Oh my god, how come seven years later, this guy is several times more vigorous than before? A man who has been holding back on the Western Expedition for three years really shouldn't be messed with.

…………

Shao Quanzhong arrived at the Huai Army camp at Xizhimen and had not yet eaten. "Report, Zeng Jize wants to see you."

After meeting with Zeng Jize, "Report! Zhang Zhidong wants to see you."

Shao Quanzhong stood up and walked out of the big tent. "I don't know what you mean by asking to see me. Come on, Xiaoda, let's eat together."

Zhang Zhidong laughed heartily, and entered the tent hand in hand with Shao Quanzhong. Without any ceremony, they sat down and started eating.

"General Yu, Zeng Jize just saw you. If nothing unexpected happens, he should be here to seek refuge with you."

"As expected of you, you are the third place winner."

"My plan, the only person in the world who can't be hidden is Zhao Huifu. Zeng Guofan couldn't have reached this point today without him. Congratulations, General Yu, the Hunan Army has joined you, and the country is safe. By the way, I will meet the emperor tomorrow, have you prepared the gifts for the two Buddhas?"

"I have prepared some gold and silver items from the Western Regions."

"That one is for Ci'an. The Holy Mother Empress Dowager likes agate. You may not know this. I will give you a treasure."

The next morning, Shao Quanzhong entered the Forbidden City.

"Xuan Shao Quanzhong came to the palace to see the emperor."
