"Vault! There is actually a whole vault here! Hidden here?" Cheng Beile grabbed handfuls of silver dollars, his eyes full of greed.

"There must be more than 40,000 to 50,000 silver dollars in this box... Are there any? Do you think there is any?"

"Hahaha... count how many boxes are there in total, open them to see what else is there except silver dollars?"

The entrance to the treasure cave in the octagonal glass well is very small, and only one person can enter at a time. As more and more people come in, the place becomes narrower and narrower.

Chengbeile counted one by one and waited until finally, he found a person bleeding from his shoulder in the corner. An officer was pointing a gun at the man's head.

The injured man sat on the ground, leaning his back against the wall, staring at Zai Cheng without blinking!

"Hmm? Oh... Oh... Who is this? Hahaha... Who is this!" Zai Cheng was suddenly excited. It turned out that he knew the injured person!

"Isn't this Mr. Manshun? I'm paying homage to the Chief Executive! It's a coincidence that I'm going to write a book! Why are you hiding here?"

The people in the treasure cave were actually Manshun, which was nothing strange, because the treasure cave in Jingzhai and the octagonal glazed well was set up by Zaicheng!

Since Emperor Tongzhi left the Forbidden City and studied with Xiao Letian, he has no longer been the same Wuxia Amon!

Xiao Letian's attitude towards this disciple was very subtle. In addition to the core military and national policies of the Chinese nation, he taught Zaichun selflessly some of the means of governing the country, military and even making money, and intelligence!

So Zaichun understood very early that the imperial court, which seemed to be a solid court, was not very united. Any organization was composed of forces, just like a puzzle!

This is completely inevitable. This is human nature. After all, as long as the number of people exceeds three, it will be divided into the left and right. It is difficult for humans to unify their values ​​into exactly the same!

Since it is a court composed of multiple forces, there will be conflicts within, and the essence of the struggle is nothing more than a confrontation between people, money and things!

All forces compete for their own talents, money, and controllable resources!

Among them, money is very important. No money will gather soldiers, and no money will gather people!

Zaichun, who understood this truth, has been a long time ago when Xiao Letian led his troops to attack Fusang Japan. When Zaichun's shareholding was included in the Fusang Bank, Emperor Tongzhi had already begun to quietly prepare for his own secret forces in the capital!

A group of carefully selected eunuchs and secret children from the Eight Banners received the emperor's secret decree and began the initial construction!

Zaichun didn't believe in the Ministry of Revenue and the Ministry of Internal Affairs. He didn't believe in the old foxes who were older than him and who had been honed in the court for many years!

Even he was careful about his mother, Cixi. There was more than one treasure trove of Zaichun like the Octagonal Glass Well!

Zaichun has four eunuchs under his command, and these four people are all useful!

Ermao was headed by him, mainly responsible for the Westernization Movement around Emperor Tongzhi and the diplomatic ties with the Chinese!

The first four-year-old is ranked second, mainly controlling the rules and links of the Eight Banners. After all, Zaichun can't remember so many people and things alone!

Xiao Sixi was mainly responsible for the emperor's food, clothing, housing and transportation, especially the matters on the bed of men and women. There is nothing to keep in secret. Since ancient times, the emperor also needed to receive education in this area. The offspring is very important!

Manshun ranked fourth, what is his mission?

It’s treasure! That is, money, etc. Manshun not only knows how to identify antiques, he also knows how to manage finances! He can figure out treasures and wealth. One of Manshun’s most important task is to help the emperor manage the small treasury well.

Unfortunately, I never expected that Manshun's secret identity was exposed not long after he met the capital!

Manshun looked at Zai Cheng and knew that today's things would be difficult to make things better. "Cheng Beile... Are you installing an insider next to the emperor? What a courage!"

"Hey... don't be wronged! I don't dare to do this ruthless thing. Today, it's mainly because someone informs you..."

"Haha... Some people say that someone in the palace secretly stole and sold treasures for personal gain!"

"Anyone dares to steal the treasures in the Forbidden City? He is so brave. Today, Uncle Wang went to the palace to hold a court meeting... I, as a nephew, have to share my worries with my uncle..."

"No, no, no...not only to share the worries of Uncle Wang, but also to my Emperor brother!"

"As expected, I caught a big thief!"

Cheng Beile took out a brocade box from the shelf, opened it and smiled, "Tsk tsk... What a big piece of Tianhuangshi, it's not three or three?"

"Manshun, Manshun! You are so brave. Even this big treasure dares to steal it out!"

Manshun was shot in the shoulder, and his expression of pain was distorted. He covered his wound with his hands and said, "Just... even if I am guilty... I have to be judged!"

"I want to see Master Long live! I want to see Your Majesty..."

"Take it down. If you want to see Your Majesty, you have to wait until you pour out all the dirty water in your stomach! The person here... will be here to call me!"

"While moving the silver out, interrogating me! Take out all the secrets in his belly..."

Manshun was tied to a wooden shelf, and the treasures around him were cleaned up. He screamed with a whip that was soaked with cold water!

Cheng Beile crawled out of the cave. At this time, the people kneeling around the Octagonal Glazing Well were all living people, looking at the soldiers with fear.

"No one can be left behind. There is only one entrance and exit in this cave. It is impossible for these people to know when Manshun and the others enter and exit... These are all accomplices!"

"Call me! Kill me! I want to know how many treasures there are in this way!"

The surrounding area of ​​the Octagonal Glass Well has become a hell on earth. At this moment, in addition to more than 100 soldiers, more than 200 soldiers have come to support him. The inner and outer layers of Liulijing Hutong have been completely blocked!

Zai Cheng entered the door of Jingzhai Shop and saw two corpses on the ground. "Hey! Why are you dead... I haven't asked about the secret yet, why are you dead?"

The old eunuch Wang Zhong knelt on the ground with a smile, "Master Beile... The old servant accidentally made these two guys commit suicide. It is really a sin..."

"However, the emperor is quite smart. It is impossible for such an outsider to know all the secrets. I'm afraid you can't find a new treasure cave even if you torture..."

Bang... A loud slap hit the old eunuch Wang Zhong's face and said, "You know what a dog slave! Do you know who is hiding in the well?"

"It's Manshun! It's Manshun among the four eunuchs who followed Zai Chun abroad!"

"This little dog Sun can actually guard Manshun's door. Do you think he doesn't know any secret? I think you are also a little bitch!"

"No! Master Beile spares your life! The old slave really has no intention... Otherwise, the heaven will be punished by the earth!"

"Don't worry, Master Beile, leave it to me for interrogating Manshun... I promise to take out all the secrets from his stomach..."

"Okay! I'll give you half an hour! If you can't ask anything, you'll die with them!"

Wang Zhong ran to the wellhead with a pissing flow. At this time, he was also scared and pointed at the soldiers beside him and shouted, "Are you guys questioning like this? Apart from the whip, can't you think of any tricks?"

"Burn the soldering iron! Nail your fingers! Use sauce paper to cover your face... Give me a knife and dig fish eye meat under his ribs!"
