"That's it, that's it...... that's it!

In the Jiangning Governor's Mansion, commonly known as the Great Marshal's Mansion, in the inner study of Zeng Guofan, the Great Marshal, the Nine Marshals and the loyal old peasant, the three of them gathered together to look at an urgent telegram from Suzhou.

Zeng Guofan leaned on the bed, the old peasant sat beside him, his left hand caressing the back of the big handsome, and the nine handsome who paced back and forth in front of the bed were like madmen, muttering endlessly.

"Is this a contract? He actually dares to skip the imperial court and make a contract with Jiangnan merchants privately!

Zeng Guofan looked at his brother with a smile, "Are you scolding Xiao Letian for being rebellious, or envy him for his high wrist......s?

"Big brother...... You...... Hey...... "Zeng Guoquan slapped his thigh, "I have to take it! These two devils are playing smart, they are really smart!"

"People in the world are stupid, and they are not pragmatic in their retreats! They always think that shouting a slogan and calling the king a hegemon is really a king or a hegemon? I think a king is almost ......."

"In the Hongyang Rebellion, those poor people who wanted to be emperors and wanted to go crazy, and they announced that they would become emperors early without even taking half of the rivers and mountains south of the Yangtze River, isn't this death?

"How did Xiao Letian's brain grow, why can he see so thoroughly at his age, sometimes I think he is an old man, but I have become a young man......"

Listening to his brother's frustrated nagging, Zeng Guofan smiled with relief, he knew that it was precisely because of Xiao Letian's birth and the thousands of rays of light released by Xiao Letian in the past few years that he had suppressed this brother who was above the top.

Jiangnan is his back garden, and the city of Beijing can also walk sideways, and the people of this world have long figured it out, as long as the Zeng brothers do not directly pull the flag and rebel, then they can make trouble as they like.

Even if the Heavenly Sacred Treasury was secretly emptied, the imperial court was just knocking on the side and complaining, and there was no serious counterattack at all. The Manchurians are waiting for their brothers to grow old! They hope to borrow the hand of Lord Yama to get rid of these two greatest threats.

The brothers of the Zeng family also knew this calculation of the imperial court, especially Jiu Shuai, he knew that the imperial court could not deal with him now, and the eldest brother suppressed him vigorously to prevent him from making small moves, which forced Jiu Shuai to be full of anger, and his life became more and more domineering.

It wasn't until Xiao Lotian appeared that he gave Jiu Shuai a basin of cold water, Xiao Lotian used his incredible victories one after another, as well as reversals, to prove to Jiu Shuai how shallow he was before.

"It turns out that stealing the country can still be so stealing! It turns out that there are so many routines for rebellion!"

"Is Jiangnan still in the imperial court? Brother, think about it, under a big banner, a large part of the people's hearts have been cut off...... Those merchants pay taxes to the imperial court, but at the same time they pay taxes to the Chinese people, they give dividends to the Chinese people, but they do not give dividends to the imperial court, the imperial court does not provide security protection for these merchants, and even plunders them, and Xiao Lotian provides military protection to these merchants......"

"My good brother, you say this is not an invisible country, or what? If I am not mistaken, the Chinese must recognize dual nationality, and many of those businessmen who are loyal to Xiao Letian have already entered the Chinese nationality at this moment, right?"

"Hahaha...... In the end, what is left of the Manchu Qing Dynasty? A big bright yellow pants, don't be completely embarrassed when you put it on your body! Hahaha, all the real money and silver have been swept away by the Chinese people, and the hearts of the people have been plundered, so is there only a righteous name left to deceive fools and foolish women?"

With a snap, Zeng Guofan slapped a few halves of medicinal soup and rolled to the ground: "Good brother! Now you know why I didn't let you take that step, right? Now you know why I didn't rebel? We can't play Xiao Letian! That's not a rank chess player!"

"What's even more terrifying is ...... Ahem, cough, cough, cough ......," Zeng Guofan coughed violently, "What's even more terrifying is...... cough cough cough ...... "The old farmer saw that he hurriedly poured internal force into his hand, gently comforted the meridians on the back of the handsome, and held the bowl of loquat paste in his other hand.

"Dashuai take a sip first, and then talk about ...... later"

After taking a sip of loquat ointment, Zeng Guofan gasped, "What's even more terrifying is Xiao Letian's age! He is too young, he has time to manage his grand strategy, ten, twenty, or even thirty years...... We've got that time there!"

Jiu Shuai bowed his head silently, looking at the deepening age spots on the back of his hand, he knew that the brothers were running out of time, and that would be it for another ten or fifteen years to live......

Jiu Shuai suddenly smiled, "I just want to know, how old is Xiao Letian, it seems that everyone hasn't talked about this question!"

At this time, the old farmer spoke, "This question is a top secret of the Chinese people, and I have sent a large number of manpower and material resources to find out the details of Xiao Letian, but everything is a mystery......

"Everything that can be found is only in the third year of Tongzhi, that is, in 1864 in the Western calendar, and everything above is empty...... Yes, yes, it's that kind of absolute emptiness, and there is not the slightest trace of proof that this person once existed in this world!"

"There is no information about him in Europe, let alone the United States, he once said that he returned home with the Russian caravan, but we have investigated all the Russian caravans of that year, and even the caravans three years earlier......"

"My subordinates are incompetent, and I spent 500,000 taels of silver on the investigation alone, but I got nothing...... I can only prove one thing, Xiao Lotian is lying!"

"Not only that, by Xiao Letian's side, there is a special operations team directly under Wang Huaiyuan, and their only task is to protect all the secrets of Prime Minister Xiao Cheng......"

"We once got a bizarre piece of information, which showed that Xiao Lotian seemed to have a special ability of prophecy or divine revelation...... He often says strange things when he's drunk, and those words are the top Chinese secrets, and that team is in charge of protecting them!"

"Arabian Nights! This is a Arabian Nights...... "Jiu Shuai sat softly on his chair, "So even Xiao Letian's real age is a secret? Is this guy really the stars in the sky descending from the earth? The hidden dragon that is circulated among the people is true?"

"Damn, damn it! If he is really a hidden dragon, I will still fight for a fart! I will go home and become a rich man and get ......" This time it was Jiushuai Zeng Guoquan who was really disheartened.
