In the capital, Emperor Xianfeng has just received this flying pigeon biography sent by Yiliang, which is obviously a very urgent matter. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 info But when Xianfeng received the news, he immediately became happy.

"Okay, good, Yiliang really lived up to my expectations, and actually succeeded in exterminating the traitors of the Heaven and Earth Society. He exterminated the Tiandihui rebels in Shanghai, the leader of the rebels, Zhou Lichun, committed suicide, Xu Yao was killed, and the remaining rebels surrendered en masse. ”

However, because the soldiers did not pay their salaries for several months, they were very dissatisfied with the imperial court and had begun to make trouble, and Yiliang was afraid that the army would mutiny, so with the power of the minister, he sold all these Tiandihui traitors to Westerners as slaves, in exchange for military salaries to be paid to the soldiers. The soldiers were grateful to the emperor for his grace and thanked the emperor to the north! ”

Xianfeng felt quite proud, as if this was really the rebel army that had completely wiped out the Heaven and Earth Society. However, Xianfeng, the young emperor, didn't notice at all that his courtiers obviously had different faces.

"This doesn't look like Yiliang's style!" "Yes! What's wrong with Yiliang, did you take the wrong medicine? "Yes! How is it possible for Yiliang to sell people to smoking individuals? "Yes! It's not surprising that Yiliang killed all these rebels, or let them go, but it's impossible to sell them to Westerners! "This is not Yiliang's style!"

"The army is paying salaries, this is just nonsense, and enough military salaries have been paid before the expedition. If there is a salary, there are only two possibilities. One is that Yiliang embezzled military salaries, which made the soldiers pay their salaries. Or is it another reason, that is, it may be that Yiliang used the excuse of making trouble to sell these people to foreigners, which was exchanged for wealth? ”

"But that's not right! Yiliang has never been a corrupt official, how could he do such a thing? Doesn't it make sense? ”

The princes in the capital have been figuring it out, but they can't figure out what happened to Yiliang? Yiliang's style is too weird, which makes them all very incredible. But everyone won't be stupid to say it, because officialdom isn't like that? Deceive the superiors and subordinates, this emperor is also used to deceive, how can it be beneficial not to deceive the emperor?

This Xianfeng is just a young man who has been on the throne for two years, and he became an emperor at a young age, and he has no experience! So Yiliang didn't know what to think, and his style was weird, but this Xianfeng Emperor was still proud here?

"I see, isn't Yiliang self-respecting?" "Yes! Yiliang was removed from his post ten years ago, does he have any idea now, raising himself for self-respect? "I think it's probably the incident ten years ago that scared him, and he was afraid that he would hide it again, so he raised his own weight this time!" ……

Many people believe that this time it was Yiliang who deliberately raised his own dignity and deliberately did not kill those rebels, and even continued to keep these rebels in the concession to a certain extent. Although it looks like a concession, it can be killed at any time. In this way, in order to prevent the resurgence of these rebels, the imperial court must continue to reuse Yiliang.

In fact, ten years ago, these lords and factions chose to give up Yiliang, which hurt Yiliang very much. This time, he finally seized the opportunity to make a comeback, and Na Yiliang was probably unwilling to be hidden by the bird bow again, so it was actually unexpected for many people that he had such an idea. This situation makes everyone feel normal, because if it was a different person, maybe it would be the same thing. According to the practice of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, if you can use Manchus, you will not need Han people, and if you can use Manchus, you will not consider using Han people.

But now this situation is like this, the Manchu Dynasty is Yiliang can be used, and the vast majority of other Manchus cannot take on such an important responsibility. Therefore, if Yiliang raises his own respect, this seems to be the best way, so that Yiliang can obtain the maximum benefit, and will not hide because of the destruction of the Heaven and Earth Society.

This reason is normal, so everyone didn't say anything. People Yiliang do this, everyone still has a headache.

However, these guys are actually at odds with each other, because the current Yiliang is officially depressed!

In Shanghai, in a restaurant, Chen Dingtian is feasting his father-in-law!

"Come on, come on, two fathers-in-law, today the son-in-law toasts you two with a glass, which can be regarded as persuading you to make peace. In the future, everyone cooperates, Yiliang's father-in-law, you can go to the Manchu court to ask for money and power, and the Heaven and Earth Society can continue to rebel, everyone has nothing to do with it! What happened in the past, then let him pass! Chen Dingtian said with a wine glass.

"Hmph, you broke one of my legs, that's it?" Zhou Lichun scolded.

Zhou Lichun looked at Yiliang, obviously still very angry, angry with this Yiliang. At that time, Zhou Lichun was broken by Yiliang's artillery, and he became completely disabled. This is a big grudge, and it is not so easy to resolve. Although it was only beaten by the artillery of Yiliang's subordinates, it was no different from Yiliang's fighting.

However, Zhou Lichun's jungler will not attack Yiliang in this regard, because Chen Dingtian has made it very clear that if the two sides cooperate, there will be two benefits and two harms. If they cooperate, then Yiliang can continue to be the governor of Liangjiang, and the Heaven and Earth Society can continue to live in peace. If there is a disturbance, Yiliang will attack the Heaven and Earth Society, and the Heaven and Earth will fall. As for Yiliang, it won't end well, at that time, I'm afraid everyone in the world knows that his daughter cuckolded Emperor Daoguang, and Emperor Daoguang's crown is green. This kind of class really makes Yiliang not have a good end, so both sides have each other's handles and threaten each other, so that cooperation has a foundation.

"Come on, father-in-law Yiliang, have a drink, after drinking, we are all a family! Guan Qin, we haven't toasted my father-in-law yet, now make up for it! Chen Dingtian said.

Yiliang looked at Chen Dingtian and his daughter Guan Qin to toast himself, and scolded: "What's going on with this, this is really an official and bandit family!" ”

Yiliang is really depressed, he is a flag man, a real flag man! What kind of is this, his daughter actually married the same man as the daughter of the traitor of the Heaven and Earth Society. Of course, it didn't matter if it was even his own daughter, but his daughter was already the woman of the dead emperor Daoguang back then, so she gave the emperor a green hat. Although the Daoguang Emperor had never touched his daughter, his identity had already been decided.

If this matter spreads, the consequences will definitely not be something that Yiliang can bear. Originally, a daughter was a daughter, and if she died, she died. But the consequences behind this are not something that Yiliang can bear, which makes Yiliang extremely depressed.

This time, the official and bandit family, the daughter of the governor of Liangjiang in the imperial court and the daughter of the traitor of the Heaven and Earth Society, now directly replaced the commander of the Heaven and Earth Society rebel army, that is, the supreme leader. is the daughter of the governor of Liangjiang in the imperial court, and he is also a banner man, so his daughters are also serving with the traitor female leader, is there anything more cheating than this?

If you want to stop the official bandit family this time, it won't work. The two sides grabbed each other's handles, so that both sides had to compromise with each other, and then ended up with such a result.

However, it is obvious that Zhou Lichun is unwilling to recognize Yiliang's cheap "in-laws", but Yiliang is also unwilling to recognize this thief, but in fact, this is already the case, Chen Dingtian has become the common son-in-law of the two of them, so both sides have grasped each other's weaknesses, so it is impossible not to sit down and talk.

"Two fathers-in-law, you don't have to be so nervous. As for Yiliang's father-in-law breaking Lichun's father-in-law's leg, I can't do anything about this. However, there is no personal vendetta on the battlefield, so there is no need to worry so much about each on the battlefield. Now I'm going to be an intermediary for you, and let's talk about how to solve the next problem. ”

"Now that the imperial court has been fooled, what should we do next? Father-in-law Yiliang, what do you say? Chen Dingtian asked.

Yi Liang replied: "Next, the imperial court will most likely transfer my soldiers to suppress other traitors!" ”

"Who do you say is a traitor?" Zhou Lichun scolded.

"Hmph, I'm talking about you, what's wrong?" Yiliang said angrily.

"Okay, okay, stop making noise, let's talk! Father-in-law Yiliang, you are actually very good at making excuses next, and you just said directly that the Taiping army is going to attack Jiangning from the waterway, so you have to go to Jiangxi to set up defenses. Anyway, this time Jiangsu's Heaven and Earth Society has been 'suppressed', so everything is stable. We're really going to have to be honest for a while, and we're not going to be able to keep messing around for at least a few months. Chen Dingtian said.

"What? Do you want me to keep making trouble? Yiliang said angrily.

"Father-in-law, don't be angry, let's work together next. Don't be angry, we'll do our own thing, don't worry about it. As long as you don't bother with our business, then everything can be solved. As for us now, you can retreat to Jiangxi! You are the governor of Liangjiang in the imperial court, and Jiangxi is your territory! ”

"You borrowed the name of going to Jiangxi to resist the Taiping Army, and then sat down in Jiangxi, and then sat back and watched the general trend of the world! At that time, if the general trend of the world is not favorable to the imperial court, you can use the Jiangxi territory in your hands, as well as the tens of thousands of troops in your hands or even more troops in the future to bargain with all forces! If the general trend of the world is smoother than that of the imperial court, then you can take the opportunity to return to the arms of the imperial court again, anyway, there are soldiers and territory in your hands, then that is grandpa! Chen Dingtian said.

"Bastard, you're going to let me hold the army and divide the side with my own dignity?" Yiliang scolded.

Chen Dingtian laughed and said: "Father-in-law, in this troubled era, any official position and title are empty. Only military power, guns, money bags, and territory are real! As long as you wear the official position of the governor of Liangjiang in the imperial court, and then sit in Jiangxi, and then have tens of thousands or more troops, then you can be invincible! If the court loses, you can take the military power to bargain. If the imperial court wins, won't you, the governor of Liangjiang, take the opportunity to continue to be a loyal and filial son of the imperial court? ”

Yi Liang scolded this cheap son-in-law in his heart, this son-in-law is really a thief and a thief, and he actually instigated himself to support the army and self-respect, and divide one side. However, such a temptation is still beneficial to Yiliang. At present, the general trend of the world is too weird, and the Taiping Army is already in full swing. Fujian is already in chaos, and Jiangsu and Zhejiang have heaven and earth associations.

Almost half of the country is already in chaos, and even the north is not very peaceful, so the Qing Dynasty has reached the most dangerous point. In this way, whether the Qing Dynasty can continue is really a big question.

Yiliang may also have to find a way back for himself, not to mention that he is a flag man, but it is precisely because he is a flag man that he needs a back road even more! If the Qing Dynasty is over, what will he, the banner man, do? Do you follow the martyrdom of the Qing Dynasty? When the time comes, how will those Han rebels and princes from all walks of life think of him? When the time comes, he may become the target of public criticism, so he also feels a lot of pressure.

Of course, he hopes to be able to protect his family in this troubled time, especially now that the situation is too weird, and there are troubled times everywhere. He can't seem to find a friend!

If it's really as Chen Dingtian said, that's also a way! I sat down there in Jiangxi, and tens of thousands of soldiers sat and watched the general trend of the world. Although there is a suspicion of self-respect in this way, even if the Manchu court wins at that time, then with his identity as a Guerjia clan, it is a well-known family of relatives in the Qing Dynasty, as long as he does not raise the banner of rebellion for a day, the surname of the Guerjia clan is enough to make him stable, although he dare not say that he will continue to be rich, but at least the urine bag will not fall, and the family will not be affected.

Taking a step back, if the Qing court fails, then it may not be able to have a way out. Now the leader of the Heaven and Earth Society is already Zhou Xiuying, and her daughter is also one of the women of Zhou Xiuying's husband, that is, she is a "sister" with the leader of the traitor woman of the Heaven and Earth Society?

If Da Qingguo really eats jujube pills, he can also catch this relationship and cooperate with Zhou Xiuying, and then leave a way back for himself! Anyway, this can be said to be invincible, as long as you have troops in Jiangxi and respect yourself, then everything is worry-free. This one is completely stepping on two boats.

As for the current situation, many people of insight within the Qing Dynasty can also see it. This half of the country is already in danger of collapsing, and even the north is not at peace. In this troubled world, what official position and title are all false, and military power and territory are real!

So Yiliang was suddenly a little moved by Chen Dingtian's proposal, this way of stepping on two boats, the lesson is really the best opportunity to save the family. The Manchu Qing Dynasty won the victory and borrowed the identity of the Guerjia clan, and it was impossible to be anything, at most it lost power. And if the Manchu Qing Dynasty fell, then the Guarjia clan could establish cooperation through the special "relationship" between his daughter and Zhou Xiuying, and the family could also be preserved.

Thinking of this, Yi's conscience also became very complicated, and he didn't know how to choose. (To be continued.) )
