Chapter 2: Tenkyo Dagger (2)

Boys generally hate people more than those who make small reports, and the same is true for Weizer. Receiving the first person who came to tell him about the situation in Tianjing City, and while he attached great importance to such important information, Wei Ze lowered his opinion of these guys who colluded with him in private.

When the second person came to ventilate the news, Wei Ze was quite surprised. What is surprising is that it is no longer this information that has been known to Wei Ze, but that it is not a person who has come to seek foreign aid from Wei Ze. When one after another people came to see Wei Ze, Wei Ze's patience was worn out little by little. As the King of Qi of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, Wei Ze's own work is also very busy. Where do you have time to listen to a group of people say half-truths and half-truths, and the wrong nonsense.

As a last resort, Wei Ze could only appoint his old father-in-law, who had been a counselor in the Dongwang Mansion, to come out and help and let him receive those people. When Chen Delong, this guy, came to meet Wei Ze in person, Wei Ze had to receive him personally.

Of course, Chen Delong didn't know that someone had come to seek Wei Ze's support long before him, so he very solemnly told Wei Ze about this secret. After finishing speaking, Chen Delong looked at Wei Ze's calm expression, and thought that Wei Ze had some malice towards Chen Delong, so he expressed such contempt.

Wei Ze had no intention of belittleing Chen Delong. After cross-comparing the information provided by so many people, Weeser has determined the approximate true situation. The reason why he remained silent was because Wei Ze was thinking about one thing, whether to try to stir up the situation in Tianjing City a little. Wei Ze didn't know what the remnants of the East King did after Yang Xiuqing, the king of the east, was killed in history. However, from the time of history to the fall of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, the Heavenly King Hong Xiuquan still held the power firmly, and Wei Ze could be sure that the Heavenly King Hong Xiuquan was by no means a person who was willing to give up power.

Yang Xiuqing set up Hong Xiuquan, first Yang Xiuqing and Xiao Chaogui reached an alliance, and naturally formed a Yang Xiao alliance that monopolized power. The death of Pope Feng Yunshan, the king of the south, deprived Hong Xiuquan's theocracy of strong grassroots support. Neither Wei Changhui, the king of the north, nor Shi Dakai, the king of wings, were supporters of theocracy, which led to the unprecedented isolation of Hong Xiuquan, who monopolized theocratic doctrines. In the end, a situation was formed in which Yang Xiuqing monopolized power.

Wei Changhui killed Yang Xiuqing and directly led to the vacuum of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom regime. All those who wanted to seize power had to turn to Hong Xiu, who held the divine power, to obtain the source of legitimacy of the regime. Historically, Hong Xiuquan did not hand over this power again until his death. Based on this understanding, Wei Ze did not believe in the possibility of the so-called Dongwang Mansion turning into a military division's mansion at all.

And this proposal is so wonderful for the East Palace, so wonderful that it looks like a bait placed on a mouse trap. At the beginning, Wei Ze felt that the people in the East Wangfu would die when they died, and this had something to do with Wei Ze's egg? But now that he had left Tianjing City and the conflict between him and the Dongwang Mansion had temporarily ended, Wei Ze suddenly realized that he couldn't watch the gang of people in the Dongwang Mansion jump into the trap like this.

As more and more people came to Wei Ze for help, this feeling of compassion that might be called compassion was repeatedly activated, and Wei Ze also felt that if he didn't say a word, he would be a little too unkind. Facing Chen Degui, an old acquaintance who was also a kind of Cheng DΓΉ, Wei Ze really couldn't suppress this impulse, he couldn't help but sigh and said in as gentle a tone as possible: "Brother Chen, the Heavenly King said that you can establish a military division's mansion, do you believe that?" ”

"Huh?" Chen Delong felt extremely surprised, he had never considered whether the Heavenly King was credible or not. For so long, as the puppet of Yang Xiuqing, the king of heaven, Hong Xiuquan has been deprived of his power cleanly, and he has no right to say anything about the actual control of the kingdom of heaven. When Yang Xiuqing, the king of the East, played with his heavenly father, he was not sneaky. Every time the Heavenly Father descends to earth, the princes and ministers in the city not only have to go themselves, but also take the whole family to receive the decree. Wei Changhui, the king of the north, once did not take his youngest son to receive the decree, and was reprimanded with a rod. So for Chen Delong, it is already the norm for the Heavenly King to listen to the words of the East Palace. Even when the East King Yang Xiuqing was away, Chen Delong didn't think that the Heavenly King Hong Xiuquan had any reason not to obey the orders of the East Palace.

However, Chen Delong didn't feel the need to tell Wei Ze about the internal situation of these Eastern Prince's Mansions, and after a moment of surprise, he continued: "I believe in the Heavenly King! ”

Looking at Chen Delong's attitude of pulling hard, Wei Ze only felt funny. He continued to ask: "Brother Chen, you are also a person who led soldiers, let me ask you something, how did Wei Changhui, the king of the north, know that I returned to Tianjing City?" The king of the east ordered him to go to Jiangxi, how did he know that I had returned to Tianjing City? You went back to Tianjing City with me, and when we went back, we didn't display a flag, let alone make it known to passers-by. At that time, you still said that I was so quietly successful, and I was not worthy of the pomp and circumstance of my King Qi. I just entered Tianjing City, and there were not many people in Tianjing City who knew that I was back. How did Wei Changhui know? Haven't you thought about it? ”

Of course, Chen Delong knew about the attack on Wei Ze's Qi Palace, and he not only saw the charred and blackened ruins, but also saw many corpses in the Qi Palace. After Wei Ze's reminder, he also frowned and thought deeply.

Wei Ze saw that Chen Delong finally began to use his brain to think about the problem, and he continued: "Wei Changhui's thousands of people entered the city so quietly, he must have an internal response. Wei Changhui was able to collude with Qin Rigang, on what basis? Qin Rigang has always been at the dispatch of the King of the East, why did he suddenly listen to Wei Changhui's orders willingly? There must be someone behind this, who is still a big man on the top, a figure who can convince Qin Rigang. Who do you think this person really is? ”

Speaking of the problem to this point, Wei Ze almost directly said that the Heavenly King was the mastermind of this matter. The reason why he didn't say it was because Wei Ze felt that the other party was definitely not a fool. After understanding these words, with a little inference, and with Wei Ze's questioning earlier, he will definitely be able to conclude that the Heavenly King has a problem.

And Chen Delong seemed to be thinking about what Wei Ze said, and later, his expression became more and more gloomy, and even a little frightened. After thinking for a long time, Chen Delong asked tentatively: "King Chitose of Qi, do you think this is the mastery of the Heavenly King?" ”

Wei Ze said in his heart, do you need to ask this Tm again? However, it would be too rude to say this, so Wei Ze could only answer Chen Delong's question with a rhetorical question, "Then who do you think it will be?" ”

Listening to Wei Ze's words, Chen Delong was so frightened that he simply stood up. He said in a panic: "King Chitose of Qi, please let me go back to Tianjing City quickly." Spread the news to the people of the East Palace! ”

"It's getting late, Brother Chen might as well stay with me for the night. Wait until dawn before leaving! Weeser persuaded.

Chen Delong seemed to be frightened enough, and his voice trembled a little, "Qi King Chitose, this is not good!" This matter is so serious, if I can't go back immediately to report it, what if the people in the Dongwang Mansion are killed? ”

"Good! You should go back now! Weser felt that his conscience had finally been calmed at this point. A certain sense of guilt accumulated in the past few days finally disappeared at this moment, and the ease of mind made Wei Ze even show a real smile that he had not seen for a long time.

Chen Delong led people out of Wei Ze's military camp in a panic, he got on his horse at the camp gate, and immediately headed towards Tianjing City without looking back. Regardless of the darkness on the way, Chen Delong hurried away. Fortunately, the horses were not injured on the road, and in the early hours of the morning, Chen Delong finally returned to Tianjing City with all his beards and tails.

After entering the military camp in the east of the city, Chen Delong went straight to Huang Weijiang's residence. As Huang Weijiang's nephew, and Huang Weijiang also said that he wanted Chen Delong to see him when he came back, the guards did not dare to stop Chen Delong, until Huang Weijiang's bedroom door, Huang Weijiang's personal guard stopped Chen Delong.

"I want to see Kuang Tianyang! I want to see Kuang Tianyang! Chen Delong said breathlessly.

The personal guard hurriedly grabbed Chen Delong, who was a little hysterical, and persuaded: "Chen Checkpoint, you be quiet." Kuang Tianhou has just fallen asleep, if you have something to do, you might as well wait until dawn to come. It's time for dawn! ”

"I'm really in a hurry! If you delay the big event, Kuang Tianhou will not let you go! Chen Delong first shouted to the guards, and seeing that the guards didn't let him go, Chen Delong simply shouted at the top of his voice, "Uncle, uncle, it's me, Chen Delong, I have an urgent report!" I've got something urgent to report! ”

Just as the helpless personal guard was about to go in to report, Huang Weijiang's voice came from inside the house, "Let him in!" ”

Pushing away the guards, Chen Delong rushed into Huang Weijiang's bedroom like a gust of wind, only to see Huang Weijiang sitting up on the bed with his clothes on. He hurriedly closed the door, dragged a stool to Huang Weijiang, and sat down with an exhausted butt, Chen Delong said with a little numb horror: "Uncle! Wei Ze, the king of Qi, is a big traitor! It was he who colluded with the king of the north to kill the king of the east! ”

"Huh?" Huang Weijiang looked at Chen Delong dumbfounded, he didn't expect his nephew Chen Delong to bring back such a news. Huang Weijiang hurriedly asked, "What's going on?" What did Weeser say? ”

Chen Delong first repeated what Wei Ze said, and then said eagerly: "Uncle, Wei Ze must have colluded with Wei Changhui, and Wei Changhui asked him to summon him to Qin Rigang. When I came back with him, I met Qin Rigang on the road, and Wei Ze also sent someone to contact Qin Rigang. It was at that time that he delivered the news to Qin Rigang. Otherwise, why did Wei Ze secretly enter Tianjing City, and why was Wei Ze not in it when Wei Changhui entered the Qi Palace. This must be a play for them! ”

Huang Weijiang's expression had regained his calm at this time, and he listened to Chen Delong combing through the whole process without asking or interrupting.

Chen Delong said quite fearfully: "Why did Wei Ze suddenly take away 10,000 of our horses, isn't it just to help Wei Changhui?" Let's deal with Wei Ze first, and Wei Changhui will be able to live a few more days. He asked us to doubt the Heavenly King, didn't he just want us to kill Wei Changhui? After I figured it out, I could only pretend to follow his wishes. That's it, Wei Ze still wants to keep me in his camp until dawn, if I don't have to leave, I'm afraid that I will be killed by Wei Ze now! ”

"Haha! Ha ha! Hahahaha...... "Hearing this, Huang Weijiang couldn't help laughing. This laughter baffled Chen Delong. He couldn't help but ask, "Uncle, I finally escaped with my life, why are you laughing at me?" ”

This was said in a aggrieved voice, but it was not pretended by Chen Delong. He suddenly figured out that Wei Ze was the mastermind behind the scenes, and he thought about it repeatedly along the way, and the more he thought about it, the more he was afraid, so the more he was afraid. He couldn't wait to have wings, and immediately flew back to tell his own people the big news, but he didn't expect to get only a few "haha!" from Huang Weijiang! ”

Huang Weijiang was really amused by Chen Delong, he was extremely depressed these days, he couldn't hold back this laugh, and finally accidentally choked and coughed again and again. Chen Delong hurriedly went up and patted Huang Weijiang's back, and finally helped Huang Weijiang recover his normal breathing.

"Delong, you think that Wei Ze escaped with his life, didn't I think he was pretending?" Huang Weijiang asked.

"Huh?" Chen Delong really didn't think that Huang Weijiang had already thought of this, and none of the big names in the meetings he attended mentioned this matter, and Chen Delong took it for granted that these people didn't take this matter into account.

Huang Weijiang said very funny: "If Wei Ze really colluded with Wei Changhui, after he captured 10,000 people from us, the first thing should be to attack our troops in Dongwangfu with Wei Changhui on both sides. But he didn't. If he wanted to wait for other troops, why did he go out of the city? As long as we guard the north city gate, although we have more than 30,000 people, these troops will still have more than 10,000 people to surround Wei Changhui. We will send at most 20,000 men to fight Weese. Even if Wei Ze couldn't win, he could still do it when his soldiers rushed over. Now that he has left the city, and he doesn't have a cannon in his hand, can he rely on fire to break through the walls of Tianjing City? ”

Hearing Huang Weijiang refute himself like this, Chen Delong was also anxious, "Wei Ze said that there must be big people here who are instructing the King of North and the King of Yan, and now that the King of the East is gone, Wei Ze immediately became popular." If he hadn't instructed him, who else could there be? Wei Ze and Wei Changhui are both surnamed Wei, but they are not surnamed Yang! ”

Huang Weijiang, who heard this, frowned, Wei Ze is indeed not surnamed Yang, but are Huang Weijiang and Chen Delong surnamed Yang?

"You're tired too, let's go down and rest first?" Huang Weijiang said.

Chen Delong didn't want to rest, he pestered Chen Delong to make Chen Delong believe that Wei Ze was the main messenger behind the scenes. Seeing Chen Delong like this, Huang Weijiang couldn't help but scolding angrily: "If you want to go to sleep, you can go, can I still harm you?" Get out! ”

Seeing Huang Weijiang's tough attitude, Chen Delong could only give in.

At this time, the sky was getting brighter, and looking at the back of Chen Delong leaving, Huang Weijiang was not really angry. It is not ordinary hard work to smear and rush back to Tianjing City from Qixia Mountain, and Chen Delong seems to have played with his life. Chen Delong, who worked so hard, did bring back Wei Ze's true attitude, and Wei Ze's meaning could be clearly heard from the words he relayed, that is, "The Heavenly King is the mastermind behind the scenes!" ”

Huang Weijiang has not had this idea before, but he has never taken it seriously, or he himself does not believe it.

The Heavenly King was elevated to such an extent that he was placed under house arrest among the eighty-eight wives and hundreds of female officials in the Heavenly King's Mansion. The people who were in charge of guarding the Heavenly King's Mansion outside were all the people of the East King, and it was impossible for anyone who wanted to enter the Heavenly King's Mansion to avoid the East King's surveillance. If the Heavenly King colluded with Wei Changhui in private, it would be impossible not to be detected by the East King.

Now listening to Wei Ze's conclusive claim that the Heavenly King is the mastermind, Huang Weijiang, who is in charge of the defense of the capital, of course does not believe it, but he can't help but deduce along Wei Ze's meaning. If the Heavenly King was really the mastermind, it would naturally be impossible for the Heavenly King to let the people of the Eastern Wangfu kill Wei Changhui. Now the Dongwang Mansion is tightly surrounded by Wei Changhui, although there is a gap in the combat effectiveness of the two troops, but when the edict of the Heavenly King comes down, it is not too difficult to eliminate Wei Changhui. It's really not good, you can even wait for the establishment of the Military Division's Mansion and ask Wei Ze to enter the city to destroy Wei Changhui.

But if the Heavenly King doesn't want Wei Changhui to die, with the current situation, then the people of the East Palace's Mansion will have to die. Thinking of this, Huang Weijiang couldn't help but shudder. But after a moment, he couldn't help but burst out laughing.

The Dongdian Shangshu of the Eastern Palace, which is the administrative system of the Heavenly Kingdom, and all civil officials come from the Eastern Palace. Each of the six books has twelve scholars, which is seventy-two. Each of the seventy-two Shangshu had a dozen or even dozens of staff members. This calculation is more than 1,000 people. There are 30,000 or 40,000 troops, and there are more than 1,000 officers above Sima level. If you want to exterminate the East Palace, you have to kill all these thousands of people.

Although he felt frightened and frightened for a while, Huang Weijiang quickly figured it out. The Heavenly King Hong Xiuquan was certainly set aside, but the Kingdom of Heaven is the Kingdom of Heaven after all, and once the East King Mansion is really destroyed, then the entire center of the Heavenly Kingdom will be gone. Huang Weijiang really didn't see any reason for the Heavenly King to do this. Most importantly, he didn't want to think about it anymore!

However, what Wei Ze said is not unreasonable, there must be a big man behind this. Who is this person? Since Qi King Wei Ze doesn't seem to be suspicious for the time being, then this person is very likely to be Wing King Shi Dakai.

Thinking of this, Huang Weijiang felt a headache. If the mastermind behind the scenes is the Winged King Shi Dakai, then when the North King killed the East King, the Winged King Shi Dakai must have rushed back from the Hubei front. In a few days, he was afraid that he would be able to return to Tianjing City with a large number of soldiers. If Wei Changhui can't be solved quickly, when Wei Changhui, the king of the north, and Shi Dakai, the winged king, join forces, the East Wangfu will be in danger.

Huang Weijiang had already gotten up at this time, he changed into the court clothes of the court to meet the Heavenly King, and after breakfast, he arrived at the big tent of the discussion. At this time, the big tent was bright and bright, and they were all officials of the Eastern Palace, wearing court clothes. Everyone looked nervous and expectant.

Yesterday, Zuo Tianhou Chen Chengying brought back the will of the Heavenly King, and the Heavenly King agreed to change the East Wangfu to the Military Division's Mansion. However, the Heavenly King also demanded that although the official position of the military advisor could be managed by the military division, no one could increase or decrease the number of military divisions without the will of the Heavenly King. In order to ensure this matter, the Heavenly King asked the people from the Military Division's Mansion to enter the Heavenly King's Mansion to receive the edict. Of course, the number of people is naturally determined by the Dongwang Mansion. Early the next morning, the people from the Military Division's Mansion went to see the Heavenly King.

After Zuo Tianhou Chen Chengying brought back the news, the entire Dongwang Mansion fell into a joy. After the establishment of the Eastern Palace, the members of these Military Divisions Mansion immediately ascended to the sky. They were no longer the personal vassals of the King of the East, but became the true core of the Kingdom of Heaven. From now on, power will only flow within the Military Division's Mansion, but will not leak out of the Military Division's Mansion.

The controversy immediately began, and the number of members of the Military Division's Mansion was endless. Of course, these core personnel have to join the military division's mansion, and everyone also hopes to try their best to stuff their sons and relatives into the military division's mansion.

This controversy lasted until the middle of the night, and finally Chen Chengying said that in addition to the generals who led the troops and the Shangshu of the East Palace, each of these core personnel could bring a cronie to join the Military Division's Mansion. Each core member of the core team determines who to bring to the Military Division's Mansion, but everyone is the same quota and can only bring one.

Huang Weijiang naturally brought his most trusted son, and others naturally brought their most trusted person, either a son, or a brother, or some other relative, like Huang Weijiang.

Since they were going to meet the king, everyone naturally put on their court clothes. See the bright yellow official mansion in this room, as well as the gold-painted official hats of various patterns. Everyone is looking forward to it. The death of the East King seems to have only opened up a better future for these subordinates. Not only did they take over the power of the East King, but they also went to the next level, gaining power that the East King had never gotten. Now, as long as you go through the ceremony in the Heavenly King's Mansion and have the edict of the Heavenly King, all the qiΔ“ will be in place.

Chen Chengying was the last to enter the hall, and as soon as he entered, everyone immediately stepped forward to surround Chen Chengying. Everyone was excited and nervous, and asked Chen Chengying, who had seen the king many times, and the etiquette essentials that he needed to pay attention to when he saw the king, for fear that he would make a mistake and be disqualified from entering the military division mansion by the king.

After patiently explaining to everyone for a while, Zuo Tianhou Chen Chengying looked outside the big tent, "Everyone, the sky is already bright, let's go see the king now!" ”

Everyone had been waiting for a long time, although they also wanted to be more reserved and walk slowly, but when there were impatient people in the team, everyone quickened their pace. And from the very beginning, this kind of mass action did not naturally intensify.

Some people are fast-paced, and some are either pushed by the people behind them, or they try their best to catch up with others' paces, so they naturally speed up their own steps. When one person quickens his pace, he drives others to take a faster degree. Fortunately, the big tent is not far from the door, so there is no tragedy of stampede. But when the crowd arrived at the door, they basically ran out.

At this time, the palanquins of these high-ranking officials of the East Wangfu were waiting at the door, and these people were basically eight-carrying sedan chairs, and some of the noble ones were sixteen-carrying. The high-ranking officials rushed to their sedan chairs and immediately got in.

After all, Chen Chengying is the person responsible for contacting the Dongwang Mansion and the Heavenly King, and his palanquin has not moved, and everyone cannot be dispatched. Zuo Tianhou Chen Chengying saw that everyone had entered the sedan chair, and then he got into his sedan chair.

"On the road!" With Chen Chengying shouting in the sedan chair, the sedan chair man carried the sedan chair and walked forward. One by one, the sedan chairs that the important ministers of the Eastern Prince's Mansion and the real cronies of the important ministers were riding were also lifted and went away with Chen Chengying's sedan chair.
