Chapter 525: Tianjing Coup

November 16th, night, Tianjing City. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

As a large number of troops took to the streets, the hustle and bustle of Tianjing City instantly fell silent. Although there was no more noise in the city, the fear in the hearts of the people was even greater.

In troubled times, the weak are always the most helpless, always in a dominant position.

East of the city, Yang Xiuqing's mansion.

In the huge whirlpool, Yang Xiuqing, who is under house arrest, seems to have stayed out of the matter, but in fact, it is not.

In the entire Tianjing City, there are two major whirlpools.

Yang Xiuqing is the storm center of one of the whirlpools. Don't look at him being under house arrest, but there are many people in Tianjing City who bet their chips on Yang Xiuqing's side.

Among them, in addition to Yang Xiuqing's huge influence in the Kingdom of Heaven, there are also two major intelligence organizations, the Military Intelligence Department and the Black Snake Guard, which have played a role in matchmaking.

After working in the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom for nearly a year, and receiving abundant financial support, whether it is Cobra, the director of military intelligence, or the Black Snake Guard, they will invest a small half of their energy in this.

There are many civil and military officials in the city who keep in touch with them. Of course, whether it is the Military Intelligence Department or the Black Snake Guard, when dealing with them, they use the identity of a big businessman.

Now, it's harvest time, too. Previously, the Long Xiang Legion and the Leopard Tao Legion were able to quietly avoid Hong Xiuquan's eyes, and they had a share of the credit, which was a small test.

This "big drama" in Tianjing City is the year-end test of the two major intelligence agencies.

"General, I just got the top-secret news that the Heavenly King will clear you before evacuating Tianjing tomorrow." It was the sergeant of the Military Intelligence Department who was lurking beside Yang Xiuqing who spoke.

Yang Xiuqing, who was sitting opposite, was still expressionless, but a trace of essence flashed in his eyes.

In his heart, in fact, he has already set off turbulent waves, and one is afraid of Hong Xiuquan's ruthlessness, and he is still unwilling to let him live after all. The second is also to be frightened by the intelligence skills of the Junjun Military Intelligence Department.

Being able to get the news of the Heavenly King Palace in time, this alone is enough to impress Yang Xiuqing.

You must know that Hong Xiuquan's precautions against the Heavenly King Palace are almost to the point of being harsh. Even a general like Yang Xiuqing knows nothing about the things in the palace.

The maids, eunuchs and other internal affairs personnel in the palace were immediately sentenced to death once they were found to be in collusion with foreign officials. Even so, it still can't stop the infiltration of Shanhai City, and its energy can be seen.

"General, it's time to make a decision."

Seeing that Yang Xiuqing was still a little hesitant, the sergeant had to aggravate his tone.

Once Hong Xiuquan was allowed to evacuate Tianjing City, they would not be able to explain to the prince. So, no matter what, they must act tonight and do everything they can to prevent tomorrow's evacuation.

Silence, dead silence.

At this moment, it seems that even the air has frozen.

Only the parties concerned know what kind of turbulent waves and bloody storms will be set off by the so-called "break".

Once this step is taken, there is no turning back.

After a long time, Yang Xiuqing nodded and said in a deep voice: "Since he is unkind, don't blame me for being unjust." When he said this, all the hesitation and worries in his heart disappeared.

Yang Xiuqing knew that since he agreed to the conditions of the person in front of him late that night, he had no way out. He has drifted away from the kingdom of heaven, and there is no turning back.

In this sectarian regime, betrayal is never a simple matter.

Because once betrayed, it was not only the Heavenly King Hong Xiuquan who betrayed, but also betrayed his previous beliefs. The feeling of the collapse of faith is more than a knife and stick.

"Well, let all this pain be understood tonight!"

Hong Xiuquan slowly closed his eyes, reluctant to say another word.

Seeing this, the sergeant said nothing, got up and took his leave. Next, it's their turn to play.

**********

In the middle of the city, the palace of the heavenly king.

The magnificent Tianwang Palace, towering in the center of Tianjing City, stretches for dozens of miles. In the meantime, there are thousands of pavilions and pavilions, and there are thousands of palaces, which are indescribably rich and splendid, and a heavenly style.

Compared with Ouyang Shuo's several expansions of the Southern Xinjiang Protectorate, I am afraid it is even better.

On weekdays, the Heavenly King's Palace, at night, is basically silent. Thousands of palace maids, eunuchs, and thousands of guards in the palace did not dare to make a slightly louder noise.

Tonight, it's clearly different.

According to the instructions of the Heavenly King, the palace was busy and noisy. The palace maids and eunuchs were busy sorting out and packing the valuables in the palace one by one and sending them to the carriages.

The king's personal belongings alone were loaded with ten carts.

In addition, there are the personal belongings of the concubines; The antiques, calligraphy and paintings, gold and silver jewelry, fine porcelain, silk and satin, various ornaments, and so on and so forth.

Hundreds of carts are about to be loaded one by one.

The night was already dark, shining on the Heavenly King's Palace, indescribable irony.

Hong Xiuquan, who was haggard, dragged his tired body and slowly walked into the dormitory.

The previous high spirits were withdrawn from Hong Xiuquan's body in an instant and became empty.

The dynasty dominates the industry and turns its head empty.

Overnight, Hong Xiuquan seemed to have suddenly aged by more than ten years, wrinkles climbed on his forehead, and even his hair began to turn white.

There is no one whose heart is like ashes.

Hong Xiuquan knew that even if he withdrew to Guilin County, it would only be a temporary Gou An.

In the vast wilderness, there is no place or stage for him. This is too big a blow for Hong Xiuquan, who has lived a lifetime again, so big that he can't bear it.

As the saying goes, the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment.

Hong Xiuquan's current mood is the best portrayal of the sudden fall from the sky.

Only in this way will he hate Yang Xiuqing to the core. Even if he wants to evacuate, he doesn't want Yang Xiuqing to be in peace, so he must get rid of him as soon as possible.

Because in Hong Xiuquan's cognition, it was the defeat of the Southern Route Army that triggered the chain reaction of the Kingdom of Heaven. He had never reflected on what kind of atmosphere the Kingdom of Heaven would have been like if he had followed Yang Xiuqing's advice and withdrawn his troops from Mulan Fortress.

At the very least, it won't fall into today's field all at once.

In the final analysis, Hong Xiuquan still has a knot in her heart.

The debts of his previous life still haunted him in this life, making him unable to feel at ease.

From time to time, Hong Xiuquan would be worried that when he woke up one night, the kingdom of heaven would change drastically, and Yang Xiuqing would lead hundreds of thousands of troops, and suddenly turn the gun and want to kill him in the palace and replace him.

To be honest, being able to tolerate Yang Xiuqing's command of troops until now is the result of Hong Xiuquan's repeated overcoming of his demons.

How is such a mind worthy to lead a regime and stand in the wilderness? There is such a heavenly king, and the defeat of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom is just a matter of time.

When Hong Xiuquan walked into the dormitory, he found that it was not Concubine Xiao who was sleeping tonight, but Concubine Chen, who should not have appeared here, not only frowned, but anger rose on her face.

After appearing in the wilderness, Hong Xiuquan married ten concubines. Hong Xiuquan has not forgotten all the temperament in his previous life. He deliberately made a schedule, and every day was a fixed concubine, and he was expected to go to bed.

Therefore, Hong Xiu knows all the people who sleep every day.

"How are you? What about Concubine Xiao? ”

Hong Xiuquan stared at Concubine Chen, who was standing tall, there was no trace of warmth in her eyes, and she was indescribably cold. In his eyes, the role of women is nothing more than reproduction and a tool for discharging desires.

Even for his concubines, Hong Xiuquan didn't really treat them as human beings. said that they were concubines, but in fact, their status was not much different from that of palace maids.

As an ancient scholar, Hong Xiuquan tried and failed repeatedly, and later founded the God Worship Society according to Western teachings, but in his bones, he still inherited the stubbornness and rigidity of Confucianism and his inferior roots.

Concubine Chen didn't dare to show a trace of disrespect, and replied cautiously: "Qiyu Heavenly King, Concubine Xiao was ill during the day, and the queen arranged for her concubines to serve the Heavenly King. ”

"Really?"

Hong Xiuquan's expression relaxed slightly when he heard this.

Even so, he still arranged for someone to go to Concubine Xiao to confirm.

Hong Xiuquan is not worried about anything else, but he can't tolerate the harem, there are concubines who play tricks to gain his favor.

Actually, he didn't have to.

Let's ask, which concubine is the turn to serve the king, not trembling, how can they have the heart to fiddle with means to compete for each other's favor.

Hong Xiuquan is really interesting.

Even if he lived a new life, he still unconsciously thought that he was the center of all peoples. It is the God of the people, the heaven of the concubines, who governs the fate of all mortals.

"Rest!"

In this situation, Hong Xiuquan naturally didn't have any interest, and after letting Concubine Chen serve and change clothes, he was ready to fall asleep directly.

"No!"

The heart that Concubine Chen was carrying finally landed.

With a slight tilt, the candlelight receded, and the king's bedroom fell into darkness.

Seeing this, the entire palace fell into absolute silence. Even the palace maids and eunuchs who were still sorting out their belongings had to take a detour.

Concubine Chen, who slept on Hong Xiu's side, did not fall asleep, and a trace of coldness flashed in her eyes.

This woman, in addition to the identity of the concubine, also has another secret identity, which is the most senior secret agent placed by the Black Snake Guard beside Hong Xiuquan.

It is also the top existence among the snake guards.

Among the snake guards, there is a special type of secret agent, called the death guard. Each dead guard is only responsible for one task in his life. Because they are responsible for very dangerous tasks, once completed, it is basically a death. If he survives, the Black Snake Guard will also arrange for him to retire and live a comfortable life.

In order to let Concubine Chen be taken by Hong Xiuquan without a trace and included in the palace, Black Snake Wei did not bother much. It can be said that Concubine Chen's chess piece is the core existence of the Black Snake Guard in Tianjing City.

Several times before and after, several snake guards were replaced, and when it was Concubine Chen's turn, it finally succeeded. It is precisely because of this that the Black Snake Guard has the confidence to set off a monstrous wave in Tianjing City. (To be continued.) )
