Chapter 10: Killing
Chapter 10: Killing
For Chen Cheng and Lin Mengchu, Cixi was just an outdated old witch with dry bones in the grave, and there was nothing worth taking seriously. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 However, they seem to have forgotten how Cixi had determined her position in China step by step. This old woman seized the opportunity and did not hesitate to kill Su Shun and other ministers, and also implemented new laws in the country, and later executed Tan Chong and the other reform party.
Such a woman is more ruthless and decisive than many men of this era. After learning that the Beiyang Army had entered the city of Beijing, Cixi, who had just run away to the border of Shanxi, immediately killed her. With the support of Dong Fuxiang and Yuan Shikai, Cixi quickly wrested power from Zaiyi's hands.
Then, the Queen Mother Lafayette immediately waved the butcher's knife and cleaned the original backbone of the main battle faction. Zai Yi, who was still in the joy of repelling the foreigners, didn't understand what was going on, so he was ordered to think about it behind closed doors at home. Just when the Black Dragon Society returned those light and serious wounded to the coalition army, Beijing completed another **** reshuffle, and Zai Yi, who was friendly with the Black Dragon Society, and his henchmen were exiled, imprisoned or executed.
Taking advantage of the heavy snow to close the road, Cixi opened the killing ring in the city of Beijing, and soon established her dominance. And because of the difficulty of the road and the chaos after the war, by the time the news reached Handan, it was already half a month later. Chen Cheng was surprised when he received the news, who would have thought that the salted fish could turn over? And the ministers of the main war faction basically did not resist, almost just sat and waited for death. Relying on those troops pulled out during the war, even if there is only one person with weight, they can fight another big battle in the city of Beijing.
"Should I say that they are foolish and loyal, or should I say that they love me deeply in the Qing Dynasty?" The young man said: "How is it that he obediently waited for Cixi to clean them up one by one.......... Brain-dead! ”
"What's the situation?" The girl who was finally willing to take a **** bath in a bath with the boy asked, "Listen to your tone, it was Cixi who killed Zai Yi?" ”
"Yes, our Lafayette is really powerful, playing with those princes and ministers." Chen Cheng frowned and said, "I guess that the strategy we want to develop with peace of mind is estimated to be impossible to implement." ”
"Why? Didn't you say that Cixi was a very realistic and intelligent person? The girl soaked her own inaction from the shoulders down in the pool, "Or will she use the power of foreigners against us?" ”
"It's true that Cixi is a smart person, but smart people can do stupid things. With the help of the power of foreigners, it is estimated that she will not do this kind of thing, because in that case, no one knows if there will be any more moths after the foreigners come. But what about ........."
"I knew there was going to be a time like this, you say, I'm ready."
“......... However, she will most likely instigate Yuan Shikai to deal with us. ”
"Yuan Shikai?" Lin Mengchu said disdainfully: "With his strength, he also wants to deal with us?" That's a hundred years early! ”
"Well, you know about this matter, and I know it, but Yuan Shikai and Cixi don't know. Most of them thought that our vitality was badly damaged, so we had to return to Handan. ”
"Hey, didn't we quit Beijing and return to Handan because of a serious injury?" The girl asked in amazement, "Didn't we have to surrender to the British because we ran out of ammunition and food, and a quarter of our soldiers were killed or wounded?" ”
"Although this is the case, it would sound better if I said that." Chen Cheng swallowed saliva at the part below the girl's shoulder, and said in a snort: "Besides, we are not without combat effectiveness, we can pull out tens of thousands of people casually." ”
"But you also said that Cixi and Yuan Shikai don't know our strength, so will they kill them directly without thinking about it?"
"Probably........... No, but I'll do something small, and I can't avoid it. ”
However, what Cixi and others did was not a small action, but - a massacre!
The overtly powerful forces that the Black Dragon Society left in Beijing have been uprooted, although they don't have any explicit powers. Knowing that it was too ruthless to offend people in Beijing, the Black Dragon would take away all the people and materials that could be taken away when it withdrew. Most of those who were captured and beheaded by the Qing soldiers were locals in Beijing. Because he was affected in the war, he had to work with the Black Dragon Society, or purely for a bite to eat, to work for the Black Dragon Society, which never owed wages, anyway, those unlucky eggs were caught in the vegetable market and clicked together.
And just when Chen Cheng and Lin Mengchu were discussing whether to preemptively beat the Beiyang Army at the beginning of spring next year, an uninvited guest arrived.
"Hey, isn't this the King of Duanjun? Why do you have time to run Handan? Chen Cheng was surprised. It's not a good time to go outside, and the snow outside is already enough to bury people's calves.
"Brother Chen," Zai Yi is now withered, and his whole person looks lifeless, although he was not very energetic before, "This king ...... No, I'm no longer the prince of the Great Qing Kingdom. I came here at the risk of death this time because I wanted to ask your majesty the Black Dragon King for something. ”
"Risking death? You are joking," Chen Cheng said with a smile: "Even if the Queen Mother abolishes your title of county king, but after all, you are the son of the Aixinjue Luo clan, where can there be any such thing as risking death." ”
Zai Yi said: "What about the descendants of the Aixin Jueluo family, my son is already dead." ”
Zai Yi has a lot of heirs, and the son he said is, of course, his eldest son, the former prince.
“............ Condolences change. Chen Cheng held back such a sentence for a long time.
"No, I'm not sad at all." Zai Yi shook his head, but the sadness on his face could be seen even by a blind man, "I already knew that there might be such a day, and when it really came, I didn't feel so worried in my heart." ”
"And what do you want us to do for you?" Chen Cheng looked a little unbearable, and the loss of a child in old age was also miserable. Moreover, in the previous cooperation, although Zai Yi took a lot of silver, he also worked very hard. If it weren't for Zai Yi's strong support, the strength of the black dragon would not have swelled so much.
Zai Yi was stunned for a while, and just when Chen Cheng thought that he didn't want to say it, he suddenly said, "I want to ask His Excellency the Black Dragon King to help me kill Cixi!" ”
"What?" Chen Cheng jumped up from his chair in shock, "Are you crazy?" ”
