"Your Majesty, this East King is already obviously rebellious. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 infoIt's just that now the military power is in his hands, and most of the 30,000 Taiping soldiers in Tianjing City obey his orders and want to get rid of him, but I'm afraid it's not easy! It must be taken advantage of its unpreparedness and killed with one blow. "Meng Deen, as Hong Xiuquan's confidant, is giving advice on the side, but it's all empty words.

Hong Xiuquan nodded, he was not thinking about this, but planning another important thing.

Originally, he didn't want to get rid of Yang Xiuqing completely, because the Kingdom of Heaven really needed him. Even if Hong Xiuquan didn't say anything, he actually knew very well in his heart that this charcoal burner did have some skills, and governed the entire kingdom of heaven in an orderly manner, saving himself a lot of things and less to worry about.

As long as he declares that his Heavenly Father will never come down to earth again, and confesses his mistakes and repents to himself, he will most likely forgive him and warn him.

But now, Hong Xiuquan has another idea!

First, the rebellion of the East King made him feel cold, he interfered too much, and he couldn't control it, so he had to eradicate it. Second, Hong Xiuquan suddenly thought that he would take this opportunity to eradicate Yang Xiuqing and use it to curry favor with Feng Yunshan, the king of the South.

These days, Hong Xiuquan also seems to have figured out that the reason why the king of the south is unwilling to return to Tianjing is because of Yang Xiuqing, the king of the east. He actually had some clarity about the things between Yang Xiuqing and Feng Yunshan. Back then, how Yang Xiuqing stepped on the shoulders of the King of the South, took advantage of the situation to suppress the King of the South and then ascended the throne, Hong Xiuquan was clear.

If he cut off the king of the east and then told the king of the south, the king of the south would be grateful. He named the king of the south as nine thousand years old, persuaded him a lot, sincerely invited him several times, and according to his temperament, he would definitely raise the whole south to vote.

At that time, the Kingdom of Heaven will have such a large piece of land in the whole south and a stable position, and it will be able to defeat the Manchus in one fell swoop and realize its dream of building a paradise on earth.

It's just that most of the Taiping soldiers in the capital on this day obeyed the orders of Yang Xiuqing, the king of the east, how could they cut off the king of the east? Hong Xiuquan couldn't help but have a headache. This is also the reason why he endures again and again and does not dare to attack easily.

At this moment, a close guard of the Tianwang Mansion hurriedly came to report, saying that Lai Wenhong, the uncle of the Second Kingdom, led the former celebrity of the East King, -----Chen Chengying, the Marquis of Xingguo, to ask for a meeting, saying that there was something important to report.

Hong Xiuquan frowned, and Meng Deen was also worried, and said: "Your Majesty, this Marquis of Xingguo is deeply valued by the King of the East, why did you come to see Your Majesty today?" ”

"Since I came with Uncle Erguo, it shouldn't be a bad thing. Let's talk about it first. Hong Xiuquan can only see the move.

Later, Lai Wenhong and Chen Chengying, under the guidance of the guards of the Heavenly King's Palace, met Hong Xiuquan: "Meet Your Majesty!" ”

"Your Majesty, there is a great matter to report to Your Majesty: the King of the East wants to rebel! His Majesty is hereby to report, and His Majesty is also requested to deal with it as soon as possible, and it is better to strike first. Chen Chengying said eagerly and quietly.

"Oh, what's going on? Do you have any evidence? If there is no evidence, Hugh will have to talk nonsense. ”

"I saw it with my own eyes!" Chen Chengying crawled on the ground and described the scene he saw: "In the inner palace of the East King, more than ten dragon robes have been made, and every night, the East King secretly wears and plays. Moreover, the Dongwang Mansion has been secretly mobilizing troops, and according to its duties, it is estimated that it will not be long before there will be an incident. Your Majesty, for your safety, it is better to make arrangements as soon as possible. ”

Hong Xiuquan's heart was cold, and he said secretly: "King Dong, King Dong, since you are unkind, don't blame me for being unjust!" ”

There was no leakage on his mouth, and he said with a fierce voice on his face: "Marquis Xingguo, what crime should you be guilty of slandering the king of the east so much?" Don't you think I won't hand you over to the East King? ”

Chen Chengying also knew that this was just a temptation of the Heavenly King, so he crawled to the ground and kowtowed: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty must believe me!" At the beginning, I was innocently punished by Yang Xiuqing because of the groom of King Yan, and I was punished with 200 strokes of the cane, and I couldn't get out of bed for a month and a half. Also, because I couldn't persuade my nephew Chen Yucheng to return to heaven, I was cursed by the king of the east for no reason and whipped in public. Therefore, his subordinates were already dissatisfied with the East King, and originally obeyed him for the sake of him doing things for the King of Heaven, but now that he wants to rebel, his subordinates naturally can't sit idly by. I, Chen Chengying, am loyal to Your Majesty, how can I tolerate such villains harming Your Majesty? ”

What Chen Chengying said, Hong Xiuquan is actually very clear. He had already believed Chen Chengying's words in his heart, so he said: "The Marquis of Xingguo is loyal, and I am very pleased. It's a pity that the defenders of Tianjing City are all controlled by the King of the East, and even if he wants to rebel, I can't do anything. With that, he rubbed his eyes.

Chen Chengying immediately knelt on the ground and said loudly: "Your Majesty, don't worry, the guards in the city are guarding the gates of Tianjing, not in the city. The king of heaven can write a secret edict, and his subordinates can help send out Tianjing, as long as the edict orders the king of the north and the king of the wings to return to the city of Tianjing, surround the Dongwang Mansion by surprise, and strike first, the matter can be calmed down. ”

"But Tianjing is heavily guarded, how can you enter the city by surprise?" Hong Xiuquan is still full of doubts.

"Your Majesty, you have forgotten your current position, acting as the prime minister of heaven, the great seal of the king of the east is often used, and it is not difficult to secretly write the order to transfer troops under the pretense of the edict of the king of the east, and quietly arrange some soldiers and horses to enter the city."

Then, Chen Chengying talked in detail about how to conceal Yang Xiuqing's secret mobilization of the Northern Wang's return troops to "Jingnan", how to conceal Yang Xiuqing's plan to open the door at night to receive Wei Changhui's troops into the city, and to disarm the guards of the Dongwang Palace.

When Hong Xiuquan heard this, he nodded secretly, and at the same time was full of vigilance against Chen Chengying: This person is too vicious. betrayed the king of the east this time, I don't know when he will betray himself, and when this matter is over, he must find a way to get rid of this person.

So, Hong Xiuquan immediately wrote two Tibetan secret edicts in vague words, and handed them to Meng Deen, who was serving on the side: "Deen, you quickly send someone to hand over this secret edict to the Northern King and the Wing King himself, and let the two of them quickly lead the troops back to Tianjing to escort them." ”

Meng Deen's heart shook violently, is it finally about to begin? He hurriedly made a secret edict, and immediately recruited two distant cousins who later defected to him, strange faces, holding the warrant issued by Chen Chengying, leading people to secretly go out of the city at night, and went to Jurong and Lishui in the east and Hezhou and Chaoxian in the west, where Wei Changhui, the king of the north, and Shi Dakai, the king of wings, were stationed in these two places.

After Meng Deen and Chen Chengying left, Hong Xiuquan sat alone for a while, and then began to write a secret letter again.

His letter was addressed to Feng Yunshan, the king of the South. Since you want to cut off Yang Xiuqing, the king of the east, you must maximize your benefits. He thought that since Nanwang was unwilling to return to Tianjing because of Yang Xiuqing, now that Yang Xiuqing was eradicated, there would be no obstacle for Nanwang to return to Tianjing.

For his sake, he endured to kill the East King, and according to his cousin's previous character, he must have been a little moved. I wrote a letter again to sincerely invite him to return to heaven, believing that King Nan would not refuse him.

The more Hong Xiuquan wrote, the more excited he became, as if he saw the scene where King Nan led 100,000 troops to Tianjing, met him, announced his return to the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, and followed him to kill the Qing demon.

At that time, the entire southern provinces of China, such a large piece of land, will be all the territory of the Kingdom of Heaven, that is, their own. It is believed that soon the Qing Demon will be eliminated, the entire territory of China will be occupied, and the supreme heavenly kingdom on earth will be established.

Hong Xiuquan was intoxicated with the happiness of the Hong family's eternal inheritance.
