【0593 Seoul President's Palace】
President Wei is not worried, but after being tested by too many winds and waves, President Wei's heart is obviously much bigger. Vertex x23us
"A broad vision is like a light in the night, guiding the way ahead."
Only with a long-term vision will the cause develop healthily; Only looking at the present, it will only let Xiaoli affect the development of his career.
Accomplished businessmen will not be concerned about the small profits in front of them, but will use their wisdom to understand the essence of the economy behind the complex appearance, so as to capture the unlimited business opportunities of the future more quickly.
President Wei said to Wu Xuexia.
"Go to bed early, President. I don't have the heart to discuss business with you. Wu Xuexia smiled: "Should you think more about it, if you can't find the oath, what should we do?"
"What can I do? If I can't find it, I can only turn against the two classes of ministers who oppose me! Anyway, no matter whether or not the oath can be found, it is a certain thing for me to turn against the ministers of the two classes who oppose me, and it is a doomed thing! Wei Bao replied indifferently. Shook his two arms, this is President Wei's habitual action.
"But we have less than a thousand people in Seoul! Why don't you retreat to Incheon first? It's too dangerous here. Wu Xuexia said: "And even if we get the oath, it's hard to say whether the hundred agents can take the oath out of the palace!" I'm afraid they'll kill people! ”
Wei Bao nodded and said, "I've thought about what you said. But have you ever thought that if it weren't for the fact that our numbers were at an absolute disadvantage in Seoul, would Lee dare to return to Seoul? Also, you think too highly of the Koreans, if these two ministers and Li dare to kill me, our soldiers and horses stationed in Inchon will be killed immediately! Based on my understanding of the Korean monarchs and ministers, even if those two groups of important ministers who united against me dared to kill me, Lee would never dare to kill me. ”
"But you can't completely guess others, in case something happens, I can't put you in the slightest danger." Wu Xuexia said.
"You think too much, the North Koreans don't dare to kill me, this is one thing, and the other is that I believe that Zhan Ping and the others will definitely be able to get the oath and take it out of the Korean palace!" Wei Bao Road.
"No, no, no, we have to hurry up and let someone bring a letter and let our soldiers and horses surround Seoul!" Wu Xuexia said: "You can't rely on guesswork, right?" ”
"Alright, let's go to sleep." Wei Bao wrote lightly: "Only now have a large army been mobilized to give the North Koreans the truth!" Today, I look at Zhao Guiren and her father's appearance, as if he is really on our side, as long as he can get the evidence, and the people of the entire Seoul will also stand on our side! Even if there is a conflict, our President's Guard and the action team of the General Administration of Statistics will be able to withstand it for a day or two, and one day, the Incheon garrison will be able to rush to Seoul for reinforcements. ”
Wu Xuexia saw that it was useless to persuade again, knowing that once Wei Bao made up his mind, it would be difficult to change it, so she could only sigh, say no more, and let people serve Wei Bao to rest.
Wei Bao is not only getting bigger, his whole temperament is changing with his long-term role as a team leader, his team already has a lot of people, in a narrow sense, only counting the official establishment of the Heaven and Earth Society, it has exceeded 500,000 people! Counting the people in all jurisdictions, it is already nearly 4 million! That's a huge number.
As a team leader who dominates such a huge force, it is impossible to surpass the temperament of ordinary people.
It's not that President Wei is so talented, his temperament, mind, and city government are all being driven by his profession and constantly reshaping his personality.
Reshaping throws is
At the same time, in the Joseon Palace, Zhan Ping and a group of subordinates still didn't think of a way.
Now that Zheng Yingda is dead, the clue is broken again.
"Captain, I'm sorry, it's all my fault." The female agent who led the team apologized to Zhan Ping.
Zhan Ping sighed and said, "Now is not the time to talk about these things!" Find a way to solve it as soon as possible. ”
Zhan Ping had no choice but to go to see Li Shanggong again.
Li Shanggong was beaten again, covered in blood and hung on ropes, the dilapidated house leaking on all sides, the north wind howling in, blowing a pot of soldering iron, and a baking basin filled with charcoal fire flickered and dimmed.
"Captain." Several female agents in charge of the execution saw Zhan Ping come in and saluted together.
Zhan Ping nodded and looked at Li Shanggong.
Li Shanggong was also squinting at her.
That gaze actually had the feeling of a beast.
"We did find Jung Young-dae! Thank you for the information, I shouldn't have hit you this time. I'm sorry. Zhan Ping took the initiative to apologize.
Li Shanggong suddenly smiled, his face was full of injuries, his body was full of injuries, and his smile at this time was indescribably weird: "Can you really be provoked by your casual words?" You are the person in charge of the secret errand next to Wei Bao, and I am the person in charge of the secret errand as Your Highness! Are you going to lose to you? I deliberately asked you to go to Zheng Yingda! Jung Young-dae is dead, isn't he? ”
Zhan Ping was secretly shocked, trying her best to restrain her reaction and not make herself look too surprised.
"Do you know how I feel right now?" Li Shanggong said with a smile.
Zhan Ping did not speak.
"You can't imagine it, because I can't tell how happy I am now! How satisfying! I don't really know how to put into saying how I feel right now. "Li Shanggong was a little hysterical.
Zhan Ping continued: "Is it a feeling of being reincarnated as a human being? ”
"That's right! Or you know me! Li Shanggong smiled.
"It's nothing, it's the same feeling every time I complete a big task!" Zhan Ping said: "Now you can tell me, you know that if we find Zheng Yingda, Zheng Yingda will commit suicide, then this Zheng Yingda will not leak the secret at all, why do you still tell us where Zheng Yingda is?" What does that mean? ”
"Hehe, you want me to tell you? Guess for yourself. Li Shanggong squinted and smiled.
"Captain, kill her!" Several female agents in charge of the execution were very angry when they saw Li Shanggong being so arrogant.
Zhan Ping raised her hand and stopped several female agents.
"Now I can tell you that no matter how you beat me, you will never find the oath in your life! Don't say five days, give you another five years, fifty years, and you won't find it, hahahahaha. Li Shanggong's voice was dry, but he laughed to the fullest.
Zhan Ping said to several female agents: "Let her live better than death, but not to death!" ”
Several female agents said yes.
When Zhan Ping was about to leave the house, Li Shanggong actually shouted loudly and hoarsely: "Go slowly." ”
Zhan Ping turned around and said, "Within five days, I will definitely be able to find the oath!" ”
Li Shanggong seemed to have heard the funniest thing in the world, and the corners of his mouth twitched, revealing a very weird smile.
"Captain, what now? It can't be delayed any longer, saying that there can be a five-day deadline, but if you miss the first two days, it will be more difficult later, and it is useless to give as many days as possible. A female agent said to Zhan Ping.
Zhan Ping nodded: "That's true, if you really wait until the five days are full, it will be even more difficult!" So, I decided to take the plunge! ”
"How to take the risk?" Several female agents asked in unison.
"Now that Zheng Yingda is dead, I guess that the only people who know the location of the oath may be Li Shanggong and Gu Hong left! It's also possible that Lee knew. However, whether it is Gu Hong or Li, we can only interrogate it, so we can only inform the president of the news here! Everything is up to the president to decide! Zhan Ping said.
Several female agents were silent, it turned out to be such a risk.
They all understood what Zhan Ping meant, and at this time they informed the president, which was equivalent to Zhan Ping having admitted that she had no choice, which was equivalent to pushing all the pressure directly to the General Administration of Statistics, and the General Administration would definitely have no other way to inform the president directly, which was equivalent to pushing all the pressure to the president at once.
The people at the bottom can't share the worries of the president, this is the biggest shame! Regardless of whether the president asks for guilt or not, this will be a disgrace to the hundred female agents who entered the palace to carry out the mission, and it will be recorded in the file.
"Captain, can't you wait a little longer?" A female agent couldn't help but say, "Maybe I can pry open that Li Shanggong's mouth in a few days?" Moreover, although Zheng Yingda is dead, it's not like we haven't found any clues, isn't there still a bunch of keys? Try all the places in the Joseon royal palace with keys and locks, and you'll be sure to find something. ”
Zhan Ping shook her head: "We have to prepare for the worst in advance, what if we try all the locked places you can find and still can't find them?" Now it's like the president's report, it's not that we have given up, but we have to tell the truth in advance! Okay, let's go our separate ways! I've decided. ”
Seeing Zhan Ping say this, several female agents stood up and saluted together: "Yes, captain." ”
President Wei soon got a report from Lin Wenbiao.
Lin Wenbiao completely reported the information sent by Zhan Ping from the palace to President Wei.
"I'm sorry president, it's me who is incompetent, Zhan Ping and their ......" Lin Wenbiao didn't know what to say, and he had the heart to defend the female agents who were on a mission in the Korean palace, but it was difficult to say it, because in the face of the result, any justification would be pale.
"It's nothing, it's good that they can report back the next day, it's better than letting us know a little later! It seems that things have deteriorated to the point where there is nothing anyone can do about it! It seems that the North Koreans are also very powerful, and the secrecy measures are very good! Wei Bao said.
"What now?" Wu Xuexia asked anxiously, and did not say any more serious consequences, she knew that Wei Bao had all the numbers. Unable to find that list, the oath that signed all the names of the two classes of ministers who opposed Wei Bao, the Heaven and Earth Society and Wei Bao would be in big trouble.
Where can Wei Bao come up with a good idea right away? Wei Bao is an ordinary person.
At this time, Wei Bao did not speak, walked to his desk, and wrote a poem.
This is a poem that he likes very much in modern times, and this poet's poem, he will have several, and this is one of them.
It is a man who always has to go far away, and he goes far away to make life more brilliant.
Walking on the bumpy road, the young eyes are filled with dreams and thoughts.
Whether walking alone or in a group, let every footprint be solid and powerful.
We learn to endure pain, we learn to collect tears like pearls. Store all your tears for the day of success.
On that day, even if it is a sea of oceans.
We learn to deal with misunderstandings, learn to taste the bitter wine of life as a drink,
No matter how many grievances and hardships we have gone through in life, we always wake up every morning with a vigorous face.
We learn to deal with rumors and learn to face the vicissitudes of the world calmly and calmly.
Our cultivation.
We learn to seize the day.
Life is short, the road is long, we go to and cherish every scenery,
We kept walking, and we became a scenery without stopping.
Going into the distance, from youth to youth, from youth to old age, we have gone from the stars to the sunset.
This kind of modern poetry is poetry in Wei Bao's eyes, but it is vernacular in Wu Xuexia's eyes.
Wu Xuexia almost fainted, after watching Wei Bao finish writing, she originally thought that Wei Bao was going to write some elaborate plan, what is this?
"Xiaobao, do you still have kung fu to play at this time?" Wu Xuexia said softly.
Wei Bao sweats, I'm not playing, right? "It looks like we can't use normal means! What are our strengths? It was a large group of ministers in North Korea who did plot to assassinate me, and they did make such an oath, and they did sign it! These are the facts! If it's the truth, don't be afraid! ”
"We know that there is already conclusive information, but intelligence cannot be used as evidence, and if we don't get that oath, we can't justifiably get the first opportunity." Wu Xuexia said.
"In addition to this fact, we also have the support of the people of Seoul, and everyone now agrees with the management of our Heaven and Earth Society, afraid of losing the land that has been allocated, and afraid of paying heavy taxes! This is our greatest weapon! Wei Bao continued.
"What do you mean? Shall we give up that oath and directly mobilize the people of Seoul to confront the Korean court? Yes, that's fine, anyway, you once said that no matter how many Koreans die, it has nothing to do with us, it's better to die, send Han people to fill their vacancies, and then North Korea will become ours. Wu Xuexia nodded in agreement.
Wei Bao sweated, "When did I say such a thing?" Are you mistaken? Before Li Shih confronted the Joseon Dynasty, I hoped that both sides would die more to weaken the power of the Joseon royal family, and now they are weak enough to be weakened too much. You know, we don't have much of a population ourselves! If there is no one in North Korea, what is the use of us having such a large piece of land? And it's so barren. ”
Wei Bao is right, Wei Bao knows that in this era, at least seventy or eighty percent of the world's land has not been developed, Europe, America, everywhere, not to mention Oceania, and countless desert islands in Central and South Asia.
Wei Bao not only wants land, but also population, these large areas of undeveloped land, many places are very potential, especially in South Asia, the climate is warm, at this time, even if there is no means to plant three crops of rice, the scientific and technological level of the Heaven and Earth Society can easily plant two crops of rice! If it weren't for the fact that the stick was close to western Liao, close to Wei Bao's base camp Weijiazhuang, and if Wei Bao's base camp was in the south, he would never have put his primary target in North Korea.
Wei Bao values the land of North Korea, and also values the stick, which is deeply influenced by the Chinese civilization, culture, and living habits, almost all of which are no different from the Han people, and are easy to assimilate.
"Xiaobao, have you changed your mind now? Want to preserve the Joseon royal family? Do you want to seize power in North Korea step by step? Wu Xuexia was surprised: "That will be difficult." ”
"It's harder to fight! If we are unreasonable and blindly rely on force to make the North Koreans work together, although they only have a population of one or two million, they can also cause us big trouble, the whole of Korea is a mountainous area, how many people will you send to arrest and kill people everywhere? Wei Bao said.
In the original history, whether it was the Ming Dynasty, or the Jiannu, or the modern Wa State, who controlled Korea, but still invariably preserved the royal power of Korea, as a form of puppet regime, it is for this consideration.
In Wei Bao's eyes, North Korea is a large piece of beef, very hard, very old, and can only be eaten when it is stewed.
Wei Bao did not intend to let this place exist as a puppet regime, but wanted to have the surname Han and the surname Wei.
"We must mobilize public opinion to expose the conspiracy of the two classes of North Korean ministers to assassinate me, and disclose the complete list first! I also want to continue to look for the oath signed by the two classes of ministers of North Korea who oppose me! Wei Bao ordered Lin Wenbiao.
Lin Wenbiao nodded: "Yes, president." What channels are used for disclosure? Do we have a newspaper in Seoul that we use our own newspaper to disclose and then distribute it widely? ”
"No, not only our own newspapers, but also North Koreans!" Wei Bao said: "As far as I know, there is a court newspaper office under the Chengzheng Yuan of the Korean court!" ”
The Seongjeongwon was the official who conveyed the king's order and the report of the ministers of the Yi family, and there were six ministers in the whole court. In 1400 (the 2nd year of Jeongjong of Joseon), Seongjeongwon was established, in 1401 (the first year of Taejong), it was renamed Seongseongwon, in 1405 (5th year of Taejong), it was separated from Hyojo, and in 1894, it was renamed Seongseongwon after the Jiawu reform.
The court newspaper, as the name suggests, is the same as the institution of the Ming court that printed and distributed the palace newspaper.
Specially get some officialdom news to be forwarded to various places.
Although Wei Bao did not explain, Lin Wenbiao, Wu Xuexia and Wang Qiuya immediately understood what the president meant.
"The president wants to use the newspapers printed and distributed by the official North Korean newspapers to disclose?" Lin Wenbiao said: "Then we may have to use force, otherwise how can we control the North Koreans' own Korean newspapers?" ”
What to do with force? Wei Bao said: "I am the North Korean Taifu, there is such a big thing in Seoul, and it is under martial law, shouldn't I explain it to the officialdom and the people?" If they don't do this themselves, can't I, the Taifu, help them? This is a justifiable thing, what do you want to use force for? If others do not use force, we must not use force first. ”
Lin Wenbiao paused: "Yes, president, I understand." ”
"But we didn't get the evidence, so we spread the truth everywhere, will others falsely accuse us of spreading rumors?" Wu Xuexia reminded.
"They're going to say we're making false accusations! But don't worry! We will mobilize the people first, and the public opinion of the people will be controlled by us first! When public opinion is one-sided, it is difficult to reverse! We didn't get the evidence, and they couldn't get the evidence either! Wei Bao said.
Lin Wenbiao, Wu Xuexia and Wang Qiuya nodded together when they heard this.
"Important announcements from top to bottom of the Korean court are conveyed through the Korean newspapers, and this channel is the most extensive and powerful propaganda channel in North Korea. Our heaven and earth will have prestige in North Korea again, after all, the time is still short! Just like no matter how beneficial our policy is to the Korean people, most of the Korean people will not immediately agree with our Heaven and Earth Society as much as they do with the Korean court, this is not something that can be changed overnight, after all, the Li dynasty has accumulated nearly a thousand years! Wei Bao said.
"Well, use the power of the North Koreans themselves against themselves, reduce our input as much as possible, this is a good deal! Even if we don't find that oath in the end, we can't afford to lose. Wu Xuexia nodded.
"Try your best to find it, the current plan is a last resort, it's a bit of a trick, I really can't find that oath, at most it plays a role in confusing the public, trying to make it a draw." Wei Bao Road.
"Yes, President!" Lin Wenbiao agreed and went down to do something.
As long as Wei Bao can give instructions, everyone will be at ease, and everyone is afraid that President Wei will have no countermeasures.
Whether it's right or wrong, many times, President Wei can't be helpless, even if it's in the wrong direction, he has to give an order quickly.
Wei Bao sighed secretly, and he didn't know whether his move was right or wrong.
On the same day, Lin Wenbiao led people to occupy the court newspaper office under the Chengzheng Yuan.
When the two groups of ministers who opposed Wei Bao heard the news, they were shocked and came to the Korean newspaper office together.
The court newspaper office was under martial law by the treasure army! Only one platoon of the treasure army came, fifty people.
What was taken out was President Wei's verbal instruction, saying that Lord Taifu would use the court newspaper office for a short meeting to inform the officials of all sizes of the Korean court of the details of martial law, and inform the people of the entire Seoul!
The ministers of the two classes who opposed Wei Bao brought nearly a thousand people, but they didn't dare to make a move in the face of the Fifty Bao Army.
"What now?" Shen Jing was angry again, and the six gods had no master, and asked Gu Hong.
Gu Hong was also trembling with anger, and his eyebrows were full of anxiety, he didn't expect Wei Bao to be so barbaric that he would directly occupy the Korean court's newspaper office?
"Wei Bao will definitely reveal the thing we did jointly~! He's going to break the net. Li Gui said softly.
"Call Lord Shanghong and Lord Li Yuanyi to go to Wei Bao's mansion to find him together, we must not let them come here like this! How can something that has not been confirmed be disclosed casually? Gu Hongdao.
Everyone said yes.
Wei Bao asked the Seongjeongwon, and the Seongjeongwon, the newspapers under the Seongjeongwon, disclosed a small number of words, and the newspapers under the Seongseongwong were written in Chinese, just like the newspapers of the Seoul Cheonjikai.
It is to list the specific list of how many ministers of the two classes of North Korea opposed Wei Bao together, disclose their assassination plot, and then disclose why Lee promised 100 people from the Heaven and Earth Society to enter the palace to search and why he promised to close the entire Seoul under martial law.
By the time Gu Hong and the others found Hong and Li Yuanyi, and went to Wei Bao's mansion to find Wei Bao, the newspapers on both sides had already begun to be distributed everywhere, and the administrative organizations at all levels of the Heaven and Earth Society were very complete in Seoul, not only immediately organizing people to spread the word, but also sending people to preach everywhere.
After all, nine out of ten ordinary people are illiterate, someone must read it, and it must be posted everywhere.
News is like the wind, big news is more like a gale, as soon as the wind blows, everyone knows it immediately!
By the time Hong, Li Yuanyi, Gu Hong, Shen Jing, Li Gui, and nearly 300 North Korean ministers from the two classes met in front of Wei Bao's mansion, thousands of ordinary North Koreans who had gathered here one after another expressed their support outside Wei Bao's mansion.
"What are you doing here? Bastard? Aren't you afraid of death? Not all of them are gone! "Shen Jing is strong with a large number of people! They came with nearly 300 ministers of the two shifts, and 2,000 or 3,000 domestic slaves brought by these men!
Among the common people of North Korea, the people who take the lead are the people of the administrative office of the Heaven and Earth Society, and the people of the Heaven and Earth Society are naturally not afraid of these North Korean officials, many of them are dressed as North Koreans and can speak fluent Korean, and there are many people from the grassroots administrative office of the Heaven and Earth Society, which are the progressive landlords of North Korea who are directly absorbed! These people are now also determined to follow the Heaven and Earth Society and follow President Wei.
Shen Jing saw that no one left, and no one paid attention to his words, so he couldn't help but be furious: "You Diao people, do you want to rebel? Bastard! All dispersed! Otherwise, they will be arrested and taken to the robbery hall for questioning! ”
"We're not leaving! This is Lord Taifu's mansion, why did you drive us away? A North Korean who had joined the Heaven and Earth Society said loudly.
This person's voice was very loud, and everyone present could hear it clearly, and all the ordinary people immediately echoed loudly and expressed their support.
Shen Jing was furious, he was Li's cousin, and he was very powerful, but he didn't expect that he couldn't even control the common people now! Not to mention these ordinary people, that is, people from the North Korean officialdom, how many people don't want to be quiet in front of him?
Gu Hong, Li Gui, Hong and Li Yuanyi were also surprised, but everyone didn't know whether to support Shen Jing or block Shen Jing at this time, a dilemma.
Because this is to block Shen Jing's words, it is a bit long for others to lose their prestige, but if they don't stop Shen Jing, they are afraid of causing a big mess.
Sure enough, when Shen Jing saw that no one was stopping him, he was emboldened, and immediately turned back loudly and said to all the servants of the two classes of ministers: "What are you minions still doing in a daze? Do it for me, and arrest all these people! Hurry, go, don't be stupid! ”
Two or three thousand servants would not have obeyed Shen Jing, but before this trip, they first converged, mobilized first, and said that in case of danger, everyone should go together, and the ministers of the two classes were mainly afraid of a head-on conflict with Wei Bao, and they were afraid that these servants would not dare to work hard at that time, so they made a heavy promise, promising that as long as they were willing to work hard, they would be rewarded heavily afterwards!
These dog-legged servants naturally don't have so much courage to deal with the treasure army, but when they bully the common people, they can be described as wolves and tigers, and they are more powerful than the orthodox officials and troops of North Korea!
With the support of nearly 300 ministers of the two shifts, and hundreds of officers and soldiers present, what are you afraid of?
