Chapter 35
Return to the capital
"Wang Jinbao, Sun Sike? He seems to be the prince's junior lieutenant." Hu Guozhu thought for a moment and replied.
"Indeed, they are my men. What does the master mean by mentioning them?" Wu Yingxiong asked doubtfully.
"Not only them, but also Zhao Liangdong, the commander-in-chief of Datong, Shanxi, and Zhang Yong, the governor of the province, will try their best to win over and instill anti-Qing thoughts and entrust them with important responsibilities. In this battle, they will be the main force in the future."
"Wang Fuchen, I leave this matter to you."
"Remember, these people don't like hard things. They know what to do, right?"
"My subordinates will do their best and will not let the master down." Wang Fuchen is a good person and is best at dealing with people, so he naturally responded actively.
Several others were a little unconvinced, especially General Ma Bao.
But they didn't know that these four people were the later Four Han generals in Hexi. Wu Sangui's defeat had a lot to do with them. Of course, Zhou Peigong's persuasion to surrender Wang Fuchen was also the inducement. But now Wang Fuchen has no chance to be persuaded to surrender.
Now that Zhao Liangdong is unwilling to cling to powerful people, it is a time when he is frustrated. In addition, since he is a Han, it is a good time to win over him.
Not to mention that Han Chinese Zhang Yong, Wang Jinbao and Sun Sike were all in Yunnan at this time.
In this way, the situation in Yunnan is a foregone conclusion. As long as the other two vassal kings are encouraged to raise troops together, great things can be accomplished.
Geng Jingzhong is easy to talk and unwilling to submit to others. Instead of being frightened by the Manchus, it is better to establish himself as king. As long as Yunnan raises an army, he will probably respond directly.
Shang Kexi was different. He killed 700,000 compatriots in Guangzhou. How could he let the Han people establish power again? By then everyone in the world would be shouting at him to kill him. So he was still very loyal to the Qing court. The breakthrough point was him
His eldest son, Shang Zhixin, was very rebellious and later imprisoned his father directly in response to Wu Sangui's rebellion.
"Send some people to win over Shang Zhixin and sow discord between father and son. When appropriate, you can send troops to support him as the new King of Pingnan."
Qin Fan said calmly.
"Subordinates, go and do it immediately!" Everyone said with hands in hand.
Qin Fan walked to the window, looked to the north and murmured:
"It's time to return to Beijing."
Ever since Qin Fan took control of all Wu Sangui's confidants, he and his daughters moved into Prince Pingxi's Mansion.
Naturally, Wu Sangui also got the forty-two chapters of the Sutra. Counting the time, the fake Queen Mother Mao Dongzhu should have found all the rest.
"Ms. sir, are you really not going to take us with you this time?" the girls were worried.
"You are the safest here. This way I can let go and do those trivial things that I didn't have time to do."
"Just wait in Yunnan with peace of mind."
Qin Fan said softly.
"But..." Shuang'er stopped talking.
"What? You can't bear to part with your husband?"
Qin Fan raised his eyebrows and said.
"Hmm..." Shuang'er nodded vigorously.
"Ms. sir, let Shuang'er follow you. We can talk to each other a little bit on the way. It's better than if you were alone."
Su Quan opened his mouth and said.
"Okay, let our two sons follow."
"Thank you sir, thank you sister Tsuen."
Shuang'er's face was filled with smiles, and the previous melancholy was gone.
Jianning was about to say something, but Su Quan glared back.
——
Half a month later, Beijing.
It was late at night when we arrived at the Forbidden City.
Cining Palace.
The fake Queen Mother Mao Dongzhu was upset. In the past few days, her senior brother Deng Bingchun had come several times, saying that the Shenlong Cult had changed its masters and that its leader Hong Antong had been killed. He asked her to take new poison, which would allow her to directly expel leopard fetuses and change tendons.
pills, but then they will be controlled by new poisons.
If it weren't for her lover Shou Tou Tuo being in their hands, the false queen mother would have sent someone to kill Deng Bingchun directly on the spot.
After all, she now has a new master, Qin Fan, and the medicinal power of the Leopard Ti Yijin Pill has long been eliminated and replaced by the Talisman of Life and Death.
But if she doesn't take this new pill, the Dragon Cult will not let her go.
"Looking at your sad face, it seems like you haven't been having a good time lately?"
A familiar yet frightening voice came, and then the owner of the voice appeared in front of her.
Mao Dongzhu quickly knelt down:
"Subordinates, please see your master."
"Get up and tell me what's going on with you." Qin Fan sat down and said calmly.
"Master, the Shenlong Sect has changed owners. They sent my senior brother to deliver poison and want to control me again. What should I do?"
Mao Dongzhu stood up and said anxiously.
"Oh? What do you think?"
Qin Fan smiled secretly in his heart, and then remembered that the fake queen mother didn't seem to know her real name, so she didn't even know that the new leader was herself.
"How about... when my senior brother comes next time, you and your subordinates can control him together. In this way, your subordinates will not have to take new poisons and will not be exposed. What do you think?"
Mao Dongzhu rubbed his hands and asked carefully.
"It's good to be careful, but it's not necessary." Qin Fan glanced at Mao Dongzhu and said.
"Ah? But..." Mao Dongzhu hesitated, fearing that he would make Qin Fan angry if he continued.
"I am the new leader, why take such a detour?"
Qin Fan smiled playfully.
"You...you are the new leader?"
"Isn't the leader's name...Qin Fan?"
Suddenly, Mao Dongzhu suddenly realized and said secretly:
"Yes, I only know that the master is Eunuch Gui, but I don't know his real name."
"Moreover, the poison Deng Bingchun mentioned is so similar to the life and death talisman I was given. Why didn't I think of it at the time? Well, now, with my master as the new leader, Thin Toutuo might be able to come over and meet me at any time."
Thinking of this, Mao Dongzhu knelt down again and said:
"Master, you also know that I am husband and wife with that Thin Toutuo. Can you send him to work in the Forbidden City?"
"Oh, by the way. These are the three scriptures that I found not long ago."
Mao Dongzhu ran back and took out the scriptures from under his bed and respectfully presented them to Qin Fan.
