"When did the spring flowers and autumn moon come? How much do you know about the past?
There was an east wind in the small building last night, and the motherland cannot bear to look back at the bright moon."
In the prison of the Ministry of Punishments, looking at the old rich man who kept reciting poems, Queenie felt strange. He put his head to the fence and asked softly: "Master Zhongtang, are you really having an affair with Queen Nala?"
Lao Fu, who was immersed in the past, angrily gave Queenie an invisible handbag: "Shuzi, how dare you taint the Queen's innocence!"
"I also heard what others said."
Queenie pulled her neck back and felt a little itchy on her chest, so she stretched out her hand to scratch it.
It had been three days since he had been brought to court, and the scars gradually began to itch, causing his skin to itch too.
"Who can you listen to? Who else can you listen to except your master who spreads rumors everywhere to dig up my Qing Dynasty!"
The old man was very angry. What he hated most in his life was someone slandering his and Xian'er's innocence.
"It's not the prince, it's not the prince. Master Zhongtang, don't think too much. I just listened to what others said."
Queenie didn't want to have any further entanglement with Fuzhongtang on this issue. He said it would be okay if it wasn't necessary. He wasn't the one to wear the cuckold anyway.
Then he asked Master Zhongtang for advice on the current situation.
It is nothing more than a repeat of the old tune, that is, after his master re-examines the verdict, will he overwhelm the Fourth Japs in terms of justice, gain the support of the military and civilians across the country, and completely nail the Fourth Japs to the pillar of shame in history?
The old rich man actually analyzed this issue with Queenie at the beginning. In his opinion, Guiziliu Liu really made a fuss about Laosi Guizi's life experience and revealed the truth about the blood test in Yeling. For Lao Sigui
It's definitely a heavy blow.
If you play it well, the Fourth Japs should be quite capable.
But after all, the Fourth Japs have been emperors, local governors, generals, governors, and ministers for more than forty years. Many of them were personally promoted by him, and they are very loyal to him. Even if they suspect that the Fourth Japs are not the son of the late emperor, it is impossible.
He betrayed the Fourth Japs in this way, so it is unrealistic to imagine that the Fourth Japs will be crushed to death by virtue of righteousness.
In the end, we have to meet each other in war.
The first step to solve the problem by force is to kill Brother Si who went to Huguang to "seize power" and firmly control the 100,000 Banner and Han troops on the front line of Huguang.
Secondly, it must gain the support of the majority of governors across the country.
This is not easy.
According to the old man's judgment, Shandong Governor Cathay and Zhili Governor Yang Jingsu would definitely collude with the Japanese Liu Kang, because these two people had already taken refuge with the Japanese Liu Kang during the religious rebellion in Shandong, including Xu Ji, the governor of Tianjin.
Especially in Zhili, Guiziliu had penetrated the area so thoroughly that the imperial court could not get involved.
Of course, this is also the fault of his old rich man.
Who made him trade with Guiziliu for his power to appoint officials of the fourth rank and above in Zhili, in exchange for Guiziliu handing over the post of Admiral of the Nine Sects and taking up the post in Baoding.
As a result, all the important civil, military, and political officials in Zhili were replaced one by one by the Japanese, and even the successor governor, chief minister, admiral, and commander-in-chief were all replaced.
The Zhili people here are almost in enemy territory.
The Governor of Shaanxi and Gansu, Le Erjin, the Governor of Shaanxi, Bi Yuan, and the Governor of Shanxi, E Bao, have probably reached some kind of invisible deal with Guizi Liu, but they may not necessarily help Guizi Liu rebel against Laosi Guizi.
Although it was with the support of these three people that Guiziliu usurped the position of president of the Mutual Aid Association, the Mutual Aid Association itself was just a tool for governors to exchange information and for officials to protect each other, rather than a team for some careerist to seize power.
Therefore, Lao Fu felt that the Shaanxi-Gansu side and the Shanxi side might be "neutral", just to see if Guiziliu, the pseudo-general king, could form a de facto absolute advantage over the capital.
Before that, they should not act rashly.
As for other provinces, Lao Fu analyzed that even if there were governors who boarded Guiziliu's pirate ship, they would not be able to provide substantial help. At most, they would help wave the flag and shout.
Or neutral, neither helping the other.
Therefore, if the Japanese Sixth Army came to the capital to force the fourth Japanese to step down, they had to take Huguang's 100,000 troops into their hands.
Other than that, don’t think about it.
This is not easy.
The troops on the Huguang front line are divided into two groups: the Central Army and the Local Army.
The local army was dominated by the Sichuan Green Camp, which had been infiltrated by the Japanese for many years and was already a reactionary force.
The Green Camp in Huguang was crippled by the rebels. The Green Camp in Jiangsu in Huguang surrendered to the enemy. The Green Camp in Jiangxi and the Green Camp in Zhejiang did not have many soldiers. The only Green Camp in Shaanxi and Gansu could be regarded as the loyal force of the imperial court.
The Central Army is divided into two groups, one is the left army group controlled by Interior Minister Niulunbao, and the other is the right army group controlled by Prince An's second son Ursi Balan.
The leadership camp composed of clan members was nothing but useless, and no one took it seriously.
Both the Left Army Corps and the Right Army Corps were only formally under the command of Guizi Liu, the great general king. The actual command power was held by Nu Lunbao and Ursi Balan. It was impossible for Guizi Liu to bypass the generals under their command.
Neither Nulunbao nor Ursi Balan would hand over their troops to the Japanese Six, so the old man believed that the Japanese Six might collaborate with the enemy and betray the country again.
Why collaborate with the enemy and betray the country?
Without understanding the Han traitor army, the Japanese army would not be able to defeat the Central Army!
Why collaborate with the enemy and betray the country again?
Nonsense, he would be where he is today if he had not collaborated with the enemy and betrayed the country!
Queenie asked a key question: "Master Zhongtang, deep down in your heart, do you hope that the prince will win, or do you hope that Chen Jialuo will win?"
This question is actually not difficult to answer.
From a personal point of view, Lao Fu certainly hopes that the Japanese will win.
Because although this kid is bad as hell, he still values friendship, so he will definitely not kill his rich brother.
If the Fourth Japs want to win, he, Fulhun, must accompany the Japs Six to the King of Hell.
However, the old rich man was unable to reply.
The reason is that after his various investigations, it can be basically concluded that Guiziliu is not a descendant of Prince Duduo of Yu, but a descendant of Jia Hanfu.
At the same time, this son of the Eight Banners of the Han Army has been engaged in secret activities to subvert the Qing Dynasty.
Belongs to a real traitor.
Han traitors hidden within the Eight Banners!
The Gongjinhui is the irrefutable evidence that the Six Japanese Conspirators are engaged in subverting the Qing Dynasty.
Therefore, the old rich man doesn’t help anyone.
His love for the Qing Dynasty was something that Chen Jialuo and Guiziliu could never match.
Seeing that Fu Zhongtang was silent, Queenie wanted to ask more questions, but Ren Fu Zhongtang said to him: "Let me tell you this, before Chen Jialuo is finished, he will definitely kill you, the number one lackey of the Japanese Six, as a back-up."
"Number one lackey?"
After Queenie was stunned for a moment, she actually became happy and proud: Good guy, you finally got through it!
Thousands of miles away in Xiangyang City, flowers were blooming, colorful flags and lanterns were covered inside and outside the city walls. A red carpet was spread from the city gate to the reception area three miles outside the city. Warmly welcoming soldiers and civilians lined up outside the city.
General Songchun of Jiangning, who came to Xiangyang to attend the clan meeting of hundreds of officials on behalf of the army and people of Liangjiang, felt the organizers' attention to him before he even got off his horse, and he felt proud for a moment.
Not far ahead, a young figure hurried towards him.
Before Song Chun could turn over and dismount, the young man had already grabbed the reins of his horse and said excitedly: "Old cousin, I've been looking forward to the stars and the moon, and finally I've got you here!"
Without waiting for the old man to speak, he took the horse's rein and walked towards the city.
