Kung Fu Movie Time Travel

Tan Sitong scolded Prince Yi angrily:

"Prince Yi, how dare you disobey the imperial edict!"

Prince Yi said disdainfully:

"The imperial edict cannot be the will of God. Why did you come late? Why, do you still want to kill me?"

Li Hongzhang looked at Prince Yi and sighed: "I will definitely report this to the Queen Mother!"

Although Prince Yi did not want to offend Li Hongzhang, he was not afraid of him. He was a prince and a die-hard conservative. When Cixi found out, she could at most reprimand him and nothing would happen.

When Wang Wu heard what Prince Yi said, he was furious. He took out the knife in his hand, and he and Tan Sitong stepped forward to kill Prince Yi.

Upon seeing this, Prince Yi's guards stepped forward to protect Prince Yi.

Seeing that the war was about to break out, I heard screams suddenly coming from the east wing of the backyard, and then I heard a bold laugh:

"Lion King Liu Nan is here!"

Then everyone saw a figure running straight over from the east wing. No one who blocked him along the way was his enemy.

In the blink of an eye, a figure appeared in front of everyone. It was Liu Nan who had been captured by Prince Yi.

Liu Nanchao Li Hongzhang and Tan Sitong handed over their hands and thanked them:

"Liu Nan is not dead, thank you Master Li and Uncle Tan for saving me!"

When Li Hongzhang saw that Liu Nan was fine, he smiled and said, "It's good that the Lion King is fine. Go back quickly!"

"Thank you for your help tonight!" Liu Nan said politely.

Tan Sitong stepped forward and patted Liu Nan on the shoulder and said: "Okay! As long as you're not dead! Let's go back!"

Liu Nan walked to Wang Wu and said, "Uncle!" Wang Wu whispered:

"It's not advisable to stay here for a long time. Let's go back to the escort office first. Xiao Yun'er is still waiting for you at the escort office!"

Liu Nan nodded and said:

"Yes, uncle!"

Tan Sitong and others left without looking back.

At this time, Li Hongzhang also bowed his hands to Prince Yi and said:

"Prince, since this is the case, I will take my leave. I hope this won't happen again next time!"

Prince Yi held back his anger and said:

"Master Zhongtang, walk slowly!"

After all the outsiders had left, Prince Yi said angrily: "Tan Sitong, you can't be proud for long! Where is Yuan Shikai? Get Yuan Shikai!"

After a while, a guard hurriedly ran over and said: "It's not good, Commander Yuan was knocked unconscious in the east wing!"

"What!" Prince Yi was shocked and hurried to the east wing with his guards.

As soon as he entered the door, Prince Yi saw the broken iron chain, the sword broken into several pieces, and Yuan Shikai who was lying on the ground and was knocked unconscious.

Prince Yi said angrily: "Humph, if Mr. Ao hadn't been here, how could he be allowed to be so arrogant!"

Liu Nan followed Tan Sitong, Wang Wu and others back to Yuanshun Escort Agency.

Seeing Liu Nan's safe return, Wang Yun, who had been waiting impatiently for a long time, ignored his restraint and threw himself into Liu Nan's arms.

"How are you? Are you injured? I'm so heartbroken!"

Wang Yun hugged Liu Nan and said with a cry.

Sun Nan laughed at the side and said: "If you don't come back, my junior sister will take up her sword and attack the palace!"

"Okay, okay, be good! It's okay. Look, I'm back safely. Not even a corner of my clothes is hurt!"

When Liu Nan comforted Wang Yun, Wang Wu said to Tan Sitong:

"Zhuang Fei, what do you think Xiang Cheng would do if he didn't bet on the emperor but on Ci Xi?"

Yuan Shikai's various actions now made Wang Wu feel that something was wrong.

Tan Sitong looked up at the moon in the sky and laughed to himself:

"Then I am the eternal fool, and he is the eternal sinner!"

Tan Sitong didn't know that this was a gamble, but he had to take the gamble because now the court was in a precarious situation.

The Eight-Power Allied Forces have already stationed troops in Tianjin and may attack the capital at any time. If we do not speed up reforms and seek breakthroughs now, China will not be far from destruction!

After everyone left, Wang Wu stood alone in the yard, thinking about the conversation between Tan Sitong and him before the showdown with Yuan Shikai.

"Fifth brother, the conservatives have already started to take action, we must fight back immediately!"

Tan Sitong said solemnly to Wang Wu.

Wang Wu looked at Tan Sitong and said, "Zhuang Fei, but we have no troops now?"

Tan Sitong shook his head: "It's too late now. If you want to win in danger, you can only fight in danger!"

Wang Wu thought for a moment and said, "Zhuang Fei, you mean Xiang Cheng!"

Tan Sitong nodded and said: "He has a new army of 17,000 people, and he is close to the capital. We are all good brothers who know each other. If you show how powerful he is, I think he will help us!"

Wang Wu looked up at Tan Sitong and asked a very sharp question: "What if he doesn't help!"

Tan Sitong affirmed:

"If the emperor wants to regain power, the only action he needs to take is to force Cixi to give up the throne. For Yuan Shikai, the odds of this chip are very high, and he will not fail to bet!"

Wang Wu looked at Tan Sitong and said firmly: "Okay, let's go together. The worst is that blood will be splashed on the yellow sand road, and the world will be different if we die!"

Thinking about Tan Sitong's words at that time, and then thinking about Yuan Shikai's various performances now, Wang Wu couldn't help but sigh and murmured to himself:

"Zhuang Fei, you may have made a wrong bet now. Xiang Cheng may want to bet on Cixi's side!"

After Liu Nan said goodbye to Wang Yun with Gui Jiao Qi, he returned to the Song Mansion.

As soon as he arrived at Song Mansion, Liu Nan immediately called Song Bingzhong over and asked:

"Mr. Song, let me ask you something."

Song Bingzhong replied: "Master Liu, tell me!"

"Mr. Song, you have been in the capital for a long time. Do you know where officials in the imperial court usually beheaded?"

Song Bingzhong thought for a while and said: "Nowadays, the places where beheadings are done are at Caishikou!"

Liu Nan was startled and asked in confusion: "Isn't the place where prisoners are beheaded at the Meridian Gate?"

Song Bingzhong asked: "Meridian Gate, why does Master Liu think he was beheaded at the Meridian Gate?"

Liu Nan replied subconsciously: "When I watch TV series where the emperor beheads officials, don't they always say: 'Push them out to the Meridian Gate and behead them'!"

Song Bingzhong asked in confusion: "What? TV series? What is a TV series?"

Only then did Liu Nan remember that there was no TV now, so how could there be any TV series? He quickly explained:

"It's nothing. TV dramas are great dramas for us Chinese people. That's what the emperor said in the dramas I watched."

Song Bingzhong laughed and said: "Master Liu, you don't know something. Many people often hear this in opera, "Push out the Meridian Gate and behead!" " Waiting for words, the Meridian Gate became the place where death row prisoners were rumored to be executed.

In fact, it was rumored that beheadings were never held at the Meridian Gate, which was built in the Ming Dynasty by Emperor Yongle Zhu Di.

In the Ming Dynasty, executions were only carried out at the Meridian Gate during the "Tingzhang" period, but sometimes they were also beaten to death, so it became a place for killing people;

In the Qing Dynasty, people just celebrated at the Meridian Gate after returning from the war. In fact, the gates of the Ming and Qing imperial palaces were extremely strict, and it was not this place where the prisoners "beheaded the city cao".

Instead, they had to be taken to Chaishi (now Xisi) or Caishikou and other places for execution. The beheading at the Meridian Gate was introduced because the emperor said not to kill people in my house, let alone to kill people in front of the emperor's house. "
