Xia Xingshuo led his troops to blockade the areas near Dongjiaomin Lane in the name of protecting foreigners, blocking the high officials and nobles of the Qing Dynasty fled into the foreign embassy area, and at the same time, the Forbidden City had already formed a group.

In the past, ordinary people who are scattered in the city and countryside have a relatively large chance to struggle for a life. Even some heroes who have the ability but have no chance can make a big career in this life.

However, if the eunuchs and palace maids who stayed by the royal family in the palace did not escape earlier when they were rebelling, the chances of survival would be very slim.

Especially those beautiful palace maids, once soldiers enter the Forbidden City, they will be inhuman insulted.

Therefore, as the gunfire nearby became more and more urgent, the eunuchs and palace maids in the Forbidden City were unwilling to take part in business and began to prepare for a tragic scene. Some of them hung strong ropes in their respective residences or trees, while others came to the lake in groups to wander...

As long as the situation is critical, these helpless eunuchs and palace maids will seek death without hesitation.

Of course, there are also some eunuchs and palace maids who are flexible and have ways outside the palace. At this time, they are concerned about the priceless antique calligraphy and paintings in the palace.

After they packed their money and luggage, they waited for the arrival of great fortune. As the saying goes, wealth and honor are sought in danger. At that time, they may be able to seize one or two treasures and make a fortune.

At around 7 o'clock in the morning, in the magnificent Ningshou Palace, the old witch Cixi, who was over the age of "happiness and anger", looked pale and frightened. She was anxiously waiting for the eunuch who was leaving the palace to investigate the news.

Although the eunuchs and palace maids who served inside and outside Ningshou Palace were not prepared to hang up and jump into the river or mow fish in muddy water, they also lost their rigor and solemnity as before.

Except for the eunuchs and palace maids who stayed near Cixi, the others gathered together in groups of three or three and talked nervously about the situation outside.

If Empress Cixi had seen this situation in the past, she would definitely be forced to drag these restless eunuchs and palace maids out and beat them to death with 1uan sticks.

But at this moment, the old witch Cixi suddenly felt lost. After thinking about it, she felt that this incident was too sudden and strange, and she might suffer a catastrophe.

Therefore, the old demon queen who longs to live for a long time is already panicked and has no time to care about what others are doing.

A few years ago, the Eight-Nation Alliance attacked Beijing and came from Tianjin Wei to openly fight. Even so, the old witch Cixi seized the opportunity at the last moment and escaped from the capital in a panic. The process was extremely dangerous.

But at present, when the cannon sounded from Fengtai Town, gunfire came out immediately in Beijing, which made Cixi suspect that Beijing had been captured by the enemy.

In this case, if the enemy is strong enough and curled up in the Forbidden City, Cixi and others will be like turtles in a jar, which can be said to have no way to heaven and no way to the ground.

At around 7:30, the sound of rapid footsteps sounded outside the door. Li Lianying, with two young eunuchs, ran in sweat and knelt down to salute.

Seeing that Li Lianying, who was going outside to do business, finally came back, Cixi asked anxiously: "Lianying, there were guns and guns outside. What happened? Who was the one who dared to do it at this time? Moreover, after such a major thing, why didn't the princes come to the palace to protect their cars?"

Li Lianying was mourning and didn't get up even when she knelt down, allowing sweat to flow down her cheeks. There was too much bad news, and for a moment, he didn't know where to start.

What's more important is that if all the bad news is said, will Empress Dowager Cixi, who is in her twilight years, be unable to stand the sting? He can't guarantee that she will die.

After pausing, Cixi saw that Li Lianying was just kneeling and gasping loudly, but did not get up to reply. She felt that the situation was very bad. She asked her most concerned question with some expectations: "Lianying, Beijing City, has it been captured by the enemy?"

"Return to the Lord Lafayette, Beijing City should not have been captured by the rebels. Because so far, there has been no sign of a large army entering the city." Li Lianying voiced and told Empress Dowager Cixi the only "good news".

"It's not bad," Cixi's old witch breathed a sigh of relief, patted her mouth, and asked anxiously: "So, who are the people inside and outside Beijing? Have you heard it clearly?"

Li Lianying said hesitantly: "Old Buddha, I have sent more than 20 clever eunuchs to investigate the news more than an hour ago. However, most of the eunuchs who went out were like stones sinking into the sea when they left the palace and never came back.

Now gunfires outside the Forbidden City are coming one after another. It seems that these little eunuchs are in danger. However, the mistress is the most clever. Not only did she escape back, she also found some information."

Hearing this, Cixi was shocked, and her heart that had just been relieved suddenly rose up and murmured: "In this way, the Forbidden City has been surrounded by rebels. No wonder Prince Qing and Prince Su and others have no news. But, suddenly, where did so many people who have become 1uan have emerged?"

After saying a few words to himself, Cixi turned her head and looked at the little third son kneeling behind Li Lianying, and said tremblingly: "Miss third son, you are very capable. You have heard useful news. Now you can tell me the news you have heard."

The mistress reported respectfully: "Laofu, there are not many people outside the palace. They just intercepted and killed them on some necessary roads. The slaves carefully walked out from several alleys. After some inquiries, they realized that it was the people from the Imperial Army who were doing it. These thieves were killing people and shouting to let the emperor come back."

The three words "Protect the Imperial Army?" were like a bolt from the blue, which made Cixi tremble suddenly.

After a while, Cixi came to her senses and said to Li Lianying indifferently: "Lianying, get up quickly and go to Yingtai to take the emperor here."

Li Lianying looked depressed and cried, "Old Buddha, things are not good, Your Majesty, the emperor is gone."

"What?" The old witch Cixi said in surprise: "Last night, didn't you say that the emperor stayed in Yingtai well? How could a living person suddenly disappear overnight?"

Another eunuch kneeling behind Li Lianying was the one who was responsible for guarding Yingtai. He trembled and said, "God, Master, the emperor, he is really gone."

"Damn slave, what's going on?" Cixi asked angrily.
