The British Embassy military officer Delaney had been waiting at the door long ago. They did not dare to go out to greet him and could only wait here, because once the British soldiers left the embassy to escort Prince Qing and others, the nature of the whole thing would change.

Political refuge is not a new term. Europe has long had an exile government. The tradition of political refuge has existed in the Middle Ages.

As long as Prince Qing and Prince Chun enter the embassy area, you can find any excuses to the outside world. You, the Qing Dynasty, dare not directly attack the embassy.

But the premise is that you have to walk into the door yourself instead of letting the British escort you, so that the British can clean it.

"Hurry, hurry up... speed up... don't you Chinese have kung fu? Where are your kung fu?"

This is not fast enough? The rubber wheels are almost rubbing and smoke. As the vehicle is bumping, the spoke wheels are about to deform.

Papa... The bullet came from behind them, and Fojin and the children screamed!

"Don't shoot...Don't hurt the people in the British embassy by chance..." The Qing army officer chasing saw that his subordinates had fired, and was so scared that he stopped him. This foreign devil could not afford to offend him. The Qing Dynasty's fear of the foreign devils and the second devils was already heartfelt.

Four rickshaws almost hit the steps of the embassy. The people in the car rolled and crawled into the gate like a ball. Prince Qing even hit the forehead directly on the door frame like a dog.

The adults told the child to cry, and the British guards rushed up and protected the prince's families with their bodies. At this moment, the Qing army rushed to the door.

Delani said with his chest folded and his belly folded, "You can report to the court, just say that Prince Chun and Prince Qing and his family are extremely threatened. The safety of their lives cannot be guaranteed!"

"They sent a request for political asylum to the British Embassy! According to the traditions and diplomatic etiquette of British aristocrats, when princely aristocrats are in danger, all countries will extend friendly hands to provide protection..."

These little officers were stationed at the Daqing Gate, so they dared not challenge the British. They didn't even know what they should say, but they also knew that it would be impossible to go back and report their lives like this.

"This... this foreigner... we can't get a job when you say that! You said the two princes were threatened with life? What kind of life threat is it? We have to say one thing so that we can report to Master Long Sui!"

Speaking of this, the little officer even pulled his neck and shouted into the gate, "Prince Chun... Prince Qing... What's the matter between the two princes? Can't you tell Master Wansui?"

"What's wrong? You always have to say something, let's take it back..."

Prince Qing in the gate was so scared that his face turned pale. He was almost exhausted by the ray of life and death just now, and he leaned against the wall and felt angry.

Prince Chun could hold on. He coughed for a while and said, "You...you go back to report to the court. It's not that our two families betray the Qing Dynasty, but that they have no choice but to have their own difficulties!"

"I can't explain it clearly now. You just told Master Wansui, just say that we are loyal to the Qing Dynasty, and we are afraid that some of the fanatical madmen will harm..."

"Just say that, I guess it's either tonight or tomorrow. Long lively will understand!"

Delaney nodded, "You all heard it clearly? Go back...we must be more vigilant!"

The gate of the British Embassy was slowly closed. This embassy originally belonged to a prince of the Qing Dynasty, and this prince was Prince Chun Yihuan!

It's ironic, really ironic. When Yihuan returned to this familiar palace, he came as a political refuge.

Britain had a permanent embassy in the Qing Dynasty, which began after the invasion of Beijing in 1860. Before that, they had no right to set up permanent embassy in the capital.

British diplomats can only live in the few cities open along the coast!

After the British and French allied forces invaded Beijing, the British army quickly occupied Prince Chun's mansion in Dongjiaomin Lane as a temporary command center. After that, they no longer returned it to Prince Chun, but directly changed it to the embassy.

It was from then on that time that Prince Chun Yihuan went to the beach of Shicha to live in the new Prince Chun Mansion!

The French first seized the Su Palace. Due to Yi's negotiations, the French finally went to Chungong Mansion in Dongjiaomin Lane, which is a county palace for the expansion of the embassy!

"It's been sixteen years... I haven't stepped into this place for sixteen years. I really didn't expect to return to the old site today with such an identity!" Yihuan said quietly.

The layout of the Laowang Mansion has not changed, it is nothing more than the flowers, plants and trees have changed a little, with some Western varieties of flowers, and the furnishings in each room have become a combination of Chinese and Western styles.

Those who came in were all foreigners with high noses and deep eyes, and Fujin and the children were a little scared when they came here.

Delani knew that Prince Chun was in a bad mood and said with a funny look, "There is an old saying in China that the old ones do not go to the new ones do not come! This palace is much smaller than your current palace in Chun. In fact, the prince takes advantage of it!"

"Haha... take advantage? I would rather not take advantage of such an advantage... Why did my Qing Dynasty become like this..." Yihuan felt uncomfortable and wanted to cry.

Delaney didn't know how to answer, so she could only say embarrassedly, "This... maybe it's the price that must be paid for change! There is no such simple thing as the reform, it's all blood and fire..."

The gunshots on Qipan Street shocked the officials of various departments on duty late at night. The Ministry of War and the General Police of King Yu dared not neglect them, including Ma Ming, the Xinjun, and others also learned the news.

The three parties quickly passed the news to the Forbidden City. At this time, Emperor Tongzhi was still criticizing memorials and busy with countless government affairs in the huge empire.

"It's eleven o'clock... Your Majesty, you have to rest. Please review these comments tomorrow..." The big four said with heartache.

"No, there are too many things. I can't do it until I finish dealing with the six ministries. They are still waiting for my comments! Pour me a cup of coffee..."

"Oh... Your Majesty, don't drink foreign bitter tea. You will suffer from insomnia every time you drink it. Should you drink hot milk?"

"No, pour me coffee... Cough cough cough..." Zai Chun was so tired that his dark circles appeared. At this moment, the hurried footsteps of the guards suddenly came from outside.

"Your Majesty... the secret passage has been opened again... Prince Yu, General Ma Ming, Lord Baofeng asked for a visit!"

"Ah! Cough cough cough... Cough cough cough..." Zaichun was now afraid of this secret passage. Master Yongzheng repaired this secret passage to convey emergency military information late at night. How many times have he opened the power after taking power? There is bad news every time!

"Cough cough cough...Call in...Cough cough cough cough...Call in..."

The three ministers walked in quickly and were about to kneel down. Zai Chun waved his hand and said, "Don't kneel, it's not a big court meeting at this time, why should I pay attention to these things? What's the bad news..."

The three of them looked at each other, and Ma Ming and Bao Jing both looked at King Yu with their eyes. King Yu was so angry, thinking that you wouldn't speak and force me to come forward?

But among these three, he has the highest title. If you are the prince, who will not say anything?

King Yu said carefully, "Your Majesty... Just now... Gunshots sounded from Chess Pan Street... A brief exchange of fire broke out!"

"Hmm? Qipan Street! So brave, who is actually doing rash here?" Zai Chun's eyes widened.

"Your Majesty calm down and beg your Majesty to be a little mentally prepared...I...We just got the news...Prince Qing and Prince Chun..."

"Defected! Defected and hid in the British Embassy!"

Ah! Zai Chun screamed, and his black body tilted to the side!
