Chapter 533: Infiltrating the Palace
Chen Hao and Yuan Shikai had a false relationship with each other, and expressed their gratitude to Yuan Shikai for helping him many times, and the two talked happily. Lao Yuan did help Chen Hao a lot before, but with the improvement of Chen Hao's status, Lao Yuan was afraid that he would become a competitor one day, and he did a lot of things to slander him.
The change in Yuan Shikai's attitude mainly lies in the improvement of Chen Hao's status, and with the improvement of his status, Chen Hao's thoughts have not been changing? When he first came into contact with Yuan Shikai in the game, he wanted to climb the future tree of Yuan Shikai and achieve certain results in the future. After mastering the navy, which was not weak, he began to plan to help Lao Yuan come to power in the future, and mix a navy minister under Lao Yuan.
Now that Chen Hao has successfully gained a firm foothold in Guizhou and mastered all the sailors in Nanyang, he wants to compete with Lao Yuan again. If he successfully rescued Emperor Guangxu this time and brought Emperor Guangxu to Guizhou, he and Yuan Shikai would inevitably turn their faces, so this should be the last friendly negotiation between the two.
After the two sat down, Yuan Shikai said tentatively: "Brother Baxian successfully found evidence, so that the Japanese have to recognize China's sovereignty over Dongsha Island, which is a miracle. I heard that Lafayette was very pleased, so he did not hesitate to make an exception to let the elder brother train the new army, why hasn't the elder brother gone back to the training? ”
Chen Hao sighed and said, "Xiaguan also wants to go back to train the new army, and when he was about to leave, he heard that Lafayette was seriously ill, so he wanted to stay in the capital for a while longer." ”
Yuan Shikai praised: "No wonder the Queen Mother said that the elder brother of Baxian is the first loyal minister of the Qing Dynasty, and the old brother will definitely be quite relieved to know this heart." ”
Chen Hao said with a solemn face: "Lafayette has always taken care of me, her old man is in good health and everything is fine, if there is no Lafayette to take care of me one day, I am afraid that I will also be the end of the official." Kung Pao has always been quite fond of me, so I'll tell you the truth, I stayed in the capital mainly because I was worried that Lafayette would not be there. The emperor may not let me eat this bowl of rice from the imperial court. ”
"Lord Gong Bao has entered the palace many times to meet Lafayette, and it should be very clear how Lafayette's condition is, and I hope that the Lord will tell the truth and prepare in advance."
Yuan Shikai's eyes showed a gleam, and he sighed and said: "The Queen Mother is seriously ill this time, although she is an old man. But the imperial doctor privately said that he was helpless. ”
"How is this good? How is this good? Chen Hao's face turned pale all of a sudden, he stood up and walked back and forth a few steps and said: "Lafayette has always promoted me exceptionally, and there are many people in the court who are dissatisfied with me. ”
Yuan Shikai sighed and said: "Brother Baxian, if the emperor rules in person, I'm afraid that even I will not be able to protect myself." Most of the emperors will not treat Lafayette with all the old ministers, especially the younger brother who has always been hired by Lafayette. The emperor is afraid that he will not be able to tolerate it. ”
Chen Hao showed a depressed look, and then said fiercely: "The emperor has a lot of complaints about Lafayette, and he will definitely remove me from my official position after Lafayette is gone." My lord, must the emperor be in power after Lafayette is gone? Could there be any variables? ”
Yuan Shikai shook his head and said: "The emperor was originally the current monarch, and after Lafayette is gone, he will govern justifiably, how can there be any variables?" However, the emperor's health has always been bad, and it is not impossible if he dies before Lafayette, so the elder brother doesn't have to think too much. ”
The fierce look on Chen Hao's face became more and more intense. After a long time, he seemed to have made up his mind, and said in a deep voice: "My lord." Galeries Lafayette has always promoted me exceptionally, but I can't see Lafayette. I'm going to go into the palace to visit Lafayette, it's best to wait in the palace for a few days, I don't know if there is a way for you? ”
Chen Hao is a foreign minister, and it is a big rebellion to say that he will stay in the palace for a few days, and he is tantamount to telling Yuan Shikai that he is ready to get rid of Guangxu. After the Empress Dowager Cixi fell seriously ill, Lao Yuan really had trouble sleeping and eating. He had contact with Li Lianying several times to discuss how to let Guangxu die in front of Cixi. However, the stakes are high, and neither of them is willing to be the mastermind, so this matter has been delayed.
Yuan Shikai has been paying attention to observation, and he was secretly happy after discovering that Chen Hao had bad intentions towards Guangxu. After a moment of silence, he said: "Brother Baxian is loyal, I naturally want to help, but it is not so easy for foreign ministers to enter the palace." So be it! I'll talk to Li Lianying about it, maybe he will have a way to let the old brother Baxian enter the palace. ”
Yuan Shikai quickly sent someone to inform Li Lianying, and after all, Li Lianying came to Yuan's mansion in disguise, and was overjoyed when he learned that Chen Hao wanted to get rid of Guangxu. He readily agreed to help Chen Hao sneak into the palace, but he was able to blend in as a eunuch, and at the same time, Lin Heier and Cuiyun Niang were mixed in, and the two of them would be arranged to be palace maids.
Under Li Lianying's arrangement, Chen Hao dressed up slightly and became a little eunuch in Hanyuan Palace. Lin Hei'er and Cuiyun Niang were also in Hanyuan Palace, because the two of them were strong in martial arts, Li Lianying had no doubts about Chen Hao taking them. Due to the arrangement of Manager Li, the identities of Chen Gonggong and the three were not suspected by NPCs, but they attracted the attention of a player.
Dressed in green clothes, Pingtianxia has been paying attention to Yingtai's movements recently, and after discovering that Yingtai suddenly changed a eunuch and two palace maids, he felt that it should be related to Guangxu's death. He had already posted a post on the forum to announce his findings at any time, and he also announced it soon after the Hanyuan Palace changed two palace maids and a eunuch.
In addition to posting on the forum, Yitianyi is ready to take a risk to check whether there is a problem with the eunuch palace maid. His individual attributes are not bad, with 72 points in combat and 75 points in lurking, he is definitely a master compared to NPC eunuchs and palace maids. He hid in the aisle near Yingtai, and when he found that the eunuch named Xiao Shunzi came out alone, he quietly appeared and took out a dagger against Xiao Shunzi's waist and eyes.
"Don't move, follow me honestly, otherwise Lao Tzu will kill you with a knife." Dressed in green clothes, he said in a deep voice.
Xiao Shunzi is of course Chen Hao, his individual attributes are much stronger than those in Tsing Yi Pingtian, and he has already discovered the ambush in advance. The palace was full of Li Lianying's people, and most of the people who ambushed him were the eunuch players, and after thinking of this, he deliberately pretended not to know, and let a green coat ambush him in the world.
Chen Hao followed a Qingyi to a room, and just as the old man was about to interrogate, he flipped his wrist outward and snatched the dagger. He put a dagger against the throat of a green coat and said coldly: "Who are you?" Why dare you assassinate in the palace? ”
Dressed in Tsing Yi, he was dumbfounded, he didn't have any pursuits, he just wanted to know some insiders, but he didn't expect to encounter hard stubble. Because Chen Hao was wearing eunuch costumes, his face was also disguised, and he didn't know that he was a player in a green coat. He hurriedly said: "I don't mean anything else, I'm just curious if you want to assassinate the emperor, so I want to find out." ”
"Assassinate the emperor?" Xiao Shunzi, the eunuch on Chen Hao's deck, snorted coldly and said, "Lafayette just guessed that after he became seriously ill, someone would be unfavorable to the emperor, so he sent us to protect him." You thief is sneaky, you dare to commit murder in the palace, most of them were sent by those traitors to assassinate you, and I will kill you first? ”
"Lafayette sent someone to protect the emperor?" Dressed in green clothes, the world was stunned all of a sudden, and among the several theories about Guangxu's death, one of them was that Cixi sent someone to kill Guangxu before she died. What happened in the game, the system actually arranged for the Empress Dowager Cixi to send someone to protect Guangxu, which one of these TMs was played?
In order to know more about the inside story, Yiqing Yi Pingtianxia hurriedly explained: "Misunderstanding! What a misunderstanding! I am Xiao Anzi who is waiting in Yingtai, and I have always been loyal to the emperor, and I am worried that you want to interrogate you because you are going to be unfavorable to the emperor, and there is absolutely no malice. ”
Xiao Shunzi sneered: "You are still here to give me clever words, many eunuchs waiting for the emperor have problems, and you must be one of them." Before I came, Lafayette explained that all the eunuchs and palace maids could not believe it, and the three of us must protect the emperor's safety. I don't bother to listen to you continue to quibble, so I will slaughter you first, lest you be unfavorable to the emperor. ”
Dressed in green clothes, he was stabbed all over the world, and after hanging up, he was not depressed, but a little excited. The Empress Dowager Cixi sent someone to protect the Guangxu Emperor, but it is true that the Guangxu Emperor died in history, who did it? He also tried to get close to the chief manager Li Lianying, trying to see if he could receive the task of poisoning Guangxu, but unfortunately there were no clues.
Now that there is someone to protect Guangxu, how did Guangxu die? How did Li Lianying and Yuan Shikai evade the three people of the Cixi faction? Yiyi Pingtian wanted to enter the game to find answers, but it would take him an hour to resurrect, so he continued to update the post on the forum, hoping that more players would discuss it together.
There are many people interested in the post, and players have always been interested in the inside story of his exposure, but this time he posted his experience on the forum and attracted a lot of suspicion.
"The Empress Dowager Cixi will send someone to protect Guangxu, the landlord, your imagination is too rich, right?"
"It's a waste if you don't write a novel, you said that you have 72 points in martial arts, how could an ordinary little eunuch in the palace take your dagger in an instant?"
The doubts of a large number of players made Yiqing Yi a little depressed, and he secretly regretted that he did not turn on the video function, otherwise he could prove it by recording the conversation with the little eunuch. He held his breath after seeing the player's doubts, and after entering the game, he must continue to investigate and figure out what is going on.
Chen Hao and Lin Hei'er lived in the palace every day, and went to ask Emperor Guangxu for peace from time to time, but they were not in a hurry. He wanted to use Li Daitaozhuang's method to ask Lin Heier to find a eunuch similar to Guangxu to change his appearance, and then Li Daitaozhuang rescued Guangxu. (To be continued......)
