The Storm God
Chapter 5126: start
The Dinghai Shenzhen of the Manchu Qing court was assassinated and died, and the entire palace suddenly fell into chaos.
The instigator, Bai Yu, and his accomplice Ao Xiaogu and Bai did not return to Cining Palace, but went directly to the secret stronghold of the Tiandihui.
after all…
Long Er's current identity is the fake queen mother.
The fake Queen Mother was the junior of the Queen Mother Xiaozhuang. Without her elder, Long Er had to cope with the situation no matter what. Especially after the Queen Mother Xiaozhuang was gone, Long Er was almost one of the senior people in the entire Manchu Qing Dynasty.
There will definitely be more things waiting for her to deal with in the future.
Bai Yu stayed in Cining Palace. Firstly, he couldn't help much. Secondly, after experiencing the assassination, the guards in the palace would definitely be strengthened exponentially. If Bai Yu stayed in the palace, his actions would be affected to some extent.
In addition to the Tiandihui and Obai's gang members, as well as dealing with Wu Yingxiong, Bai Yu also needs to take charge of many things personally, so staying outside is the best choice.
When it comes to matters in the palace, there won't be any major problems with Long Er and Wei Xiaobao.
Regardless of how the outside world talks about the assassination of Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang, is shocked, unbelievable, etc., it is in the secret stronghold of the Tiandihui.
As soon as Bai Yu came back, Chen Jinnan found him.
"Mr. Bai, thank you very much!"
Chen Jinnan didn't talk nonsense. After hearing the news that the Queen Mother Xiaozhuang was assassinated, he almost immediately concluded that it was Bai Yu who did it, even if it was rumored that it was Ao Bai who did it.
Because many of these questions are simply illogical.
The only explanation is that Bai Yu may have used some means to involve Ao Bai in the assassination of the Queen Mother Xiaozhuang.
after all…
Oboi is now considered a rebel.
Precisely because the enemy of my enemy is my friend, Chen Jinnan still understood this truth.
He's not pedantic, and he doesn't object to it.
Anyway.
As long as the general direction is correct.
The rest of the details can sometimes be ignored appropriately.
Just like now.
Even though there are too many questions and emotions in my heart.
Chen Jinnan didn't ask or say much, but expressed his gratitude to Bai Yu very sincerely, because once the Queen Mother Xiaozhuang died, his family would be relatively safe.
"You're welcome!"
Bai Yu smiled when he heard this, and calmly accepted Chen Jinnan's gratitude, and said: "The Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang is dead. I think you can handle the rest without me taking action, right?"
He was talking about saving people.
"nature!"
Chen Jinnan nodded and said: "Actually, I have known the place where my relatives were imprisoned for a long time. It's just that there were top experts stationed there before, and I was limited by my current status and there were too many constraints, so it was inconvenient for me to move."
"Now that the Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang is dead, my identity problem has naturally been solved. Although the masters at the place of detention are not weak, I am confident that they can still be dealt with, so I won't take action, Mr. Bai."
"I'm totally fine with it myself."
“…”
Chen Jinnan is not a fool.
Bai Yu has too many things to do now, and they are all big things.
For small things like rescuing people, not to mention Bai Yu didn't have time, even if he did, Chen Jinnan would be too embarrassed to bother Bai Yu to help.
after all…
The favor he owed was big enough.
Owe again?
I'm afraid I won't be able to repay it in this life.
He can handle this crucial thing by himself, so naturally he doesn't want to trouble Bai Yu anymore.
"good!"
Bai Yu was very satisfied with Chen Jinnan's attitude.
Hearing this, he nodded and said: "With the death of Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang, there will definitely be a lot of chaos in the Manchu Qing court, and several vassal kings such as Ao Bai and Wu Sangui will definitely take action. This is also the case. It’s also an opportunity for our Heaven and Earth Association.”
"If you want to save people, it's best to do it quickly while there are still few things to do. If you need any help, just ask. Whether it's weapons and equipment or manpower deployment, I will give you the greatest authority. There is only one request. , reduce casualties to a minimum!"
"Can it be done?"
“…”
Chen Jinnan said confidently: "No problem!"
Immediately, he changed the subject and said: "Mr. Bai, with your current abilities, methods, and prestige, even if you take the position of chief helmsman, no one will have any objections, but why..."
Chen Jinnan had long wanted to hand over the position of chief helmsman to Bai Yu.
But Bai Yu chose to refuse.
To this.
Chen Jinnan was very confused.
Bai Yu said with a smile: "Now is not the time. Although my prestige in the Tiandihui has reached sufficient requirements, for the whole world, your name, Chen Jinnan, is more resounding. At present, the great cause has not been achieved, and the Tiandihui If you change the coach rashly, it will inevitably shake people's hearts..."
certainly.
These are all Bai Yu's excuses. In fact, there is only one real reason. He doesn't want to stand out just yet.
not to mention…
Bai Yu is still a reincarnation person.
The rest of the reincarnations are basically his enemies. If they directly take Chen Jinnan's place, isn't that clearly telling others that he has a problem?
Wouldn’t it be nice for him to hide behind the scenes?
Although Bai Yu is now the deputy chief rudder of the Tiandihui, it will also arouse the suspicion of some people, but after all, he is the deputy, and he is completely different from the chief.
If something goes wrong, at least there is Chen Jinnan who can throw the blame. If Bai Yu becomes the right person, the result will be completely different.
Anyway.
Turning regular at this point would do more harm than good.
Naturally, Bai Yu would not agree.
"All right."
Seeing that Bai Yu's attitude was very resolute, Chen Jinnan didn't say anything more. Guan Bai Yu asked for some equipment and manpower, and left in a hurry.
His relatives are still detained.
Taking advantage of the fact that the Queen Mother Xiaozhuang had just died and the news had not spread completely, it was the best time for Chen Jinnan to take action to save people. It would not be safe if it were later.
In order to increase the success rate and reduce casualties, Bai Yu did not hesitate.
We need people to give people, and we need equipment to give equipment.
He believes it.
Chen Jinnan will definitely complete this rescue operation successfully.
Then…
In the name of the deputy helmsman, Bai Yu summoned all the remaining key members of the Tiandihui to discuss the next move.
Wei Xiaobao is the master of Qingmu Hall, but because he has an official position in the Manchu and Qing court, he is also a confidant of the young emperor Kangxi. At this moment, the assassination of the Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang has happened in the palace. Naturally, it is impossible for him to show up here. He has long been dismissed by Xiaobao. Emperor Kangxi summoned him into the palace.
But with or without him, it’s not a big problem.
After all, Wei Xiaobao usually doesn't pay much attention to the specific affairs of the Heaven and Earth Society. Most of the time, the two of them help manage it.
Especially after the showdown with Chen Jinnan, Xiao Shuang'er completely became Bai Yu's people, and their words basically represented Bai Yu.
"Mr. Bai, what do you mean, let us spread the news that the secret of the Manchu treasure has been obtained by Wu Sangui? To cause some trouble for Wu Sangui?"
The leader of Lotus Hall asked doubtfully.
Not only him, but also several other hall masters were a little confused about Bai Yu's operations.
You know, the Manchu treasures are top secret.
It stands to reason.
Shouldn't we keep silent and make a fortune?
Why do you want to tell this news in a big way now to everyone in the world?
besides…
Did Wu Sangui really get the secret of the treasure?
If this is true, then we should **** it away immediately, right? What does it mean to spread the news? Be a Bodhisattva?
"good!"
Of course, Bai Yu knew everyone's doubts. He nodded slightly when he heard this, and then explained: "To be honest, the treasures of the Manchu Qing court have been hollowed out by me a long time ago. What is left there now is just a group of useless people." It’s just scrap metal.”
"It's true that Wu Sangui got four copies of the Forty-Two Chapter Sutra. It doesn't matter whether he can decipher the secrets. What's important is that they are destined to draw water from a bamboo basket in vain!"
"Using a useless secret to cause people all over the world to be dissatisfied with Wu Sangui, and even harass, spy on, and even rob, fear, suspect, and be wary of..."
"Isn't this bad?"
“Information…”
“It’s easy to fish in troubled waters!”
"The treasures of the Manchu and Qing Dynasties involve so much. Once the news is leaked, it will inevitably arouse the covetousness of all the major forces in the world, especially the Manchu and Qing court."
"When the time comes, do you think Wu Sangui will be a rebel? Or not?"
"No matter how he chooses, his life will definitely be difficult, and the world's situation will inevitably become more chaotic because of this. And this is our opportunity!"
"Everyone must have heard about what happened to Master Wei Xiang two days ago, right?"
“…”
As soon as Bai Yu said this.
Everyone under his command suddenly showed expressions of shock and disbelief.
It was only then that they suddenly realized that no wonder Bai Yu had endless money on his hands. His feelings had long been the treasure of the Qing Dynasty.
Immediately.
Some of the smarter ones instantly understood Bai Yu's intention. It was clear that he was trying to divert trouble to the east, lure the snake out of its hole, sit back and watch, and reap the benefits.
All they need to pay is to spread the news.
But what he got was a shocking reward!
besides…
What about Wei Xiangzhu?
Holy shit!
I used to find it strange why Wei Xiangzhu must get the right to be selected for conscription. This feeling is to prepare for future actions!
The hall masters were immediately shocked.
It’s scary to think about it!
They have to start from scratch.
The first is a plan to make money!
Wei Xiaobao's actions have put all the corrupt officials in the Qing Dynasty in danger.
The money that was finally collected was taken away by the Manchu and Qing court, and even lost his life. After working hard all his life, it became someone else's wedding dress...
Who can bear this?
For a while.
There were complaints and countless people resigned. The power situation of the Manchu and Qing court, which had been relatively cohesive, fell apart in an instant and became completely alienated.
But at this time, the Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang, the Dinghai Shenzhen of the Manchu and Qing Dynasty, died again. If the news that the secret of the Manchu and Qing treasures was obtained by Wu Sangui, the king of Pingxi, was released...
Be good!
This combination of punches was simply a blow to the Manchu Qing court.
I'm afraid the little emperor was so angry that he vomited blood on the spot.
The most important thing is...
The attention of this series of events was attracted by Pingxi King Wu Sangui, Obai and others, and no one paid much attention to the Tiandi Hui.
But in fact, Tiandihui is the biggest beneficiary, bar none!
When corrupt officials were embezzled and there were vacancies among officials, the Manchu and Qing court had to find someone to fill the vacancies, otherwise the system would have problems and would not be able to operate normally.
This…
It gave a lot of people opportunities.
For example, Oboi, the subordinates of other factions, and the undercover members of the Tiandihui!
Yes.
Take this opportunity.
Wei Xiaobao often took the opportunity to place members of the Tiandihui among these vacant officials. Even if the other officials had some opinions, they did not dare to be easily pleased with Wei Xiaobao.
After all, Wei Xiaobao is now equivalent to an imperial envoy. In addition, he is also a confidant of the young emperor Kangxi, and is now a celebrity around the Queen Mother...
Just ask who dares not to give him face?
besides.
The power of conscription and selection held by Wei Xiaobao is also a huge power.
Because most of these recruits are martial arts people who come from rough backgrounds, they are completely different from ordinary people. Those who can join must at least have certain abilities.
As the sole person in charge of this matter, Wei Xiaobao can be said to be the benefactor of these new recruits.
As the team grows larger, as new recruits perform meritorious service and their positions are promoted, Wei Xiaobao's prestige in the Manchu court will become more and more important!
Even without the halos from before, this alone is enough to make many people fear and fear him, not to mention that Wei Xiaobao is the son of destiny who is loved by thousands of people.
Be good!
It is no exaggeration to say that Wei Xiaobao's current identity and status are definitely lower than one person and higher than ten thousand people.
Not to mention the ministers in the court, even the princes and dukes of the royal family, in front of Wei Xiaobao, they could only nod and bend in order to fawn over...
Just say you are awesome or not!
certainly.
These are secondary.
The most important thing is that all of this seems to have been arranged by Mr. Bai a long time ago!
Otherwise, why didn’t you tell me earlier? UU Reading www.uukanshu. com It’s too late to say anything, but you just called us over at this time to talk about this matter? Isn’t this obvious?
this moment.
All the hall masters have vaguely understood the intention of the deputy helmsman.
Using the news of the secret of the treasure in the "Forty-Two Chapters", he turned the finger on Wu Sangui and asked the rest of the forces, including the Manchu and Qing court, to attack King Ping Xiwang.
As for them, they took the opportunity to recuperate and develop quietly.
There were vacancies created by corrupt officials before, and many brothers from the Tiandihui have already been filled. Wei Xiaobao was in charge of conscription, and the same was true.
But the army is different from the court. If you want soldiers to show their role, the most advantageous scenario is undoubtedly war.
Only when a fight breaks out can the army be used, so that soldiers can gain credit and achieve promotion!
In the past, such an opportunity would have been difficult to find.
But it's different now.
The blame for the Manchu treasures was thrown to Wu Sangui. Regardless of whether he rebelled or not, he would be in trouble, and the Manchu and Qing court would not sit idly by and remain indifferent.
If you want to show the strength of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, you need an army!
Then there is the problem of Obai.
Ao Bai was originally a powerful minister, holding a large number of troops and accumulating prestige and prudence. Now he openly rebelled and killed Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang, the Dinghai Shenzhen of the Manchu Qing court. He was destined to have an eternal feud with the Manchu Qing court.
Whether it was to suppress Obai or to protect themselves, the Manchu Qing court needed the power of the army.
The little emperor Kangxi was already weak, but now two big tigers appeared all of a sudden. The result was one can imagine, and he could only recruit troops and make money desperately to strengthen himself in order to protect himself.
