Super dictator.

After Wei Jichen and Li Que'er left Fengfu, they rushed to Xianyunju.

Li Que'er's face was pale, and she panicked all the way, even walking staggeringly, falling to the ground from time to time.

Wei Jichen was helpless, and couldn't find the carriage at night, so he picked her up amid Li Que'er's exclamation.

After all, Wei Jichen from modern times doesn't have so many worries.

Li Que'er knew that the matter was urgent and could not attract other people's attention, so she did not struggle, but hugged Wei Jichen's neck tightly, quietly looked at his handsome face, saw that he was walking swiftly, with a few drops of sweat dripping from the tip of his nose, he couldn't help but He took out a sweat towel from his pocket and wiped it gently.

After a while, she leaned her head against Wei Jichen's chest again, and gently closed her eyes.

Tonight's experience was simply the most thrilling and daring in her life. The moment she picked up the knife, Li Que'er felt a little unbelievable. Since when did she dare to stand up and resist.

Perhaps, it started after meeting this cousin.

Fortunately, Feng Mansion itself is not far from Chunxiang Pavilion, and Xianyunju is opposite to Chunxiang Pavilion, so it didn't take long for Wei Jichen to carry Li Que'er to the front of the inn.

After gently letting her down, Wei Jichen analyzed slowly, "It's late tonight, and the city gates have already been closed. Let's rest in Xianyunju for a night, and wait until tomorrow to find out the situation before making any plans?"

Wei Jichen believed that he had already done enough to be secretive, even if someone with a heart saw some clues, he would not look for trouble.

Li Que'er showed a dimple on the left side of her face, she nodded sweetly and said, "I will obey my cousin in everything."

"Sister Que'er, you must forget what happened tonight, and you must not mention it to anyone, otherwise the slightest bit of information will leak out, and we will be doomed by then." Wei Jichen ordered again solemnly.

Li Que'er pursed her lips, and replied seriously: "Cousin, please rest assured, even if she loses her life, my sister will not reveal a single word."

After the two returned to the room, Wei Jichen saw Nie Cairong pacing back and forth anxiously inside, obviously very worried about himself.

Seeing Wei Jichen's return, Nie Cairong threw himself into his arms impatiently.

"Cairong, everything is fine now, we are just waiting for the good news." Wei Jichen comforted her with a rare warm smile on his face, stroking her black hair.

Nie Cairong raised his head and saw Li Que'er standing beside him with a look of envy. He couldn't help but feel hot and a little shy. He struggled out of Wei Jichen's arms and said with a smile, "Cai Rong knows that these things are right." For Big Brother Wei, it’s all a piece of cake.”

"You really think of me as someone." Wei Jichen smiled and nodded the tip of her white jade-like bead nose.

Li Que'er was saddened to see the two laughing and arguing.

After a while, the three of them were seated separately. Wei Jichen looked at Li Que'er, pondered for a while, and said, "Sister Que'er, now that I've caused a catastrophe, it's not appropriate to stay in Haicheng anymore. The two of us will meet tomorrow. Get out of town and keep wandering around."

Li Que'er's heart tightened, and he wanted to say that I'll go with you, but seeing Nie Cairong and Wei Jichen's concubine affection, he swallowed the words.

Don't be wishful thinking about your own broken body!

Seeing Li Que'er's dejected face, Wei Jichen thought she was sad about parting.

He took out a few silver bills from his bosom, and in addition to the one Li Que'er gave him last time, Wei Jichen added several hundred taels, and said seriously, "Sister Que'er, I won't be around to take care of you in the future. Just take it, open a restaurant or something, and you can marry a good man in the future."

Li Que'er sniffled, holding back tears, took the bank note and said with a smile: "I appreciate my cousin's kindness, I hope we can see you again someday."

"We will meet each other by fate." Wei Jichen sighed inwardly, and said lightly.

Li Que'er buried the affection that had just arisen in her heart very well, talking and laughing with Nie Cairong.

It wasn't until midnight that the three of them fell asleep. Wei Jichen spread a quilt under the bed, and the night passed, while Li Que'er and Nie Cairong slept on the bed.

In the middle of the night, Wei Jichen was half awake and half dreaming, as if he felt someone gently kissing his cheek.

In the early morning of the next day, when the waiter from the shop came to deliver the wash towels, he saw that there was another beautiful woman in the house, with envy on his face, he quietly gave Wei Jichen a thumbs up.

By the time Wei Jichen packed up his things, rumors had already spread.

Sitting in the lobby on the first floor, Wei Jichen could hear people talking about Feng Sheng'a's death.

"Did you hear that? General Feng was exhausted and worried about the current situation. He worked hard last night, and it just passed away. Alas, a general who was good at fighting has just passed away. Who will guard this Haicheng in the future. "

"Hey, you believe everything the government says. You bastard is thinking too hard. I have a distant relative who works as a part-time worker in Fengfu. I saw with my own eyes how Feng Sheng 'died of illness' last night."

"Oh, let's hear it?"

Gossip is always welcome.

"I heard that he is a veteran of romantic affairs. He has sex with women every night. He can't sleep until he plays for the last time. However, he is old and weak, and he has no energy. For some reason, he accidentally took a dozen or so aphrodisiacs, and in the end he was exhausted and died, and he was loyal to the imperial court."

Such explosive news immediately shocked all the people talking about it.

After a while, the discussion became more heated.

"Brother, your news is long out of date. Do you know where that old guy Feng Sheng died?"

"where?"

"where?"

Everyone around became interested, and each of them stretched their necks and asked curiously.

The old man who was disdainful to say that other people's news was outdated just now looked around first, then lowered his head and said softly: "He died on the back of a horse, completely naked, naked."

"no!"

People around let out a burst of exclamation.

"It's okay for people and beasts? This Feng Sheng is really a genius of our Qing Dynasty."

"This news is absolutely true." The old man who tirelessly revealed the truth raised his empty glass, and immediately there were people around him filling up the drink.

He took a sip before continuing to say: "The horse suffered a catastrophe. It wailed all night last night. I live not far from Feng's mansion. I heard it clearly. I thought something happened. Let's come together this morning." , I saw many high-ranking officials in the government hurriedly entered the Feng Mansion, and then left one by one with strange expressions."

The old man paused, then continued: "Then I secretly inquired, and I happened to see a few servants from the Fengfu hurried past my room with their bags on their backs. I know most of the servants from the Fengfu, so I pulled them over to ask. , I got such a piece of news, and several people said exactly what you said, whether it is true or not."

"Tsk, tsk! Didn't everyone say that General Feng is a veteran who is good at fighting? How could he do such a despicable thing." Another person asked in puzzlement.

"He is good at fighting, but he is a man who is greedy for life and afraid of death. Do you know why Ximu City was captured by the Japanese? It was he who led the troops to escape, which caused the army's morale to slacken and they were defeated in an instant." That man lived away from Fengfu. Recently, he knew a lot of inside information. Now that Feng Sheng'a died, he had a lot less worries, and it all came out all at once.

"Then why are there rumors that he killed so many Japanese in Ximu City?" another person asked again.

"You don't know that. The defenders of Ximu City did kill a lot of Japanese, but it was not Feng Sheng'e who did it, but Wei Jichen and General Wei. Feng Sheng'er gave the credit to General Wei. Take it all on yourself."

"It turned out to be General Wei. Let me just say, this Feng Sheng has been defeated many times before, how could he win a big battle all at once? He is really not a thing. He even took the credit of General Wei. He died well. ah."

Everyone was convinced by the news at once. After all, Wei Jichen led the army to wipe out the Japanese in Mayang Town, which was witnessed by many people. Feng Sheng's talk about how he killed the enemy in Ximu City was all nonsense. Blow, no one saw it at all.

Moreover, some of the rout soldiers who had fled back had already sneered at his remarks. If Feng Sheng hadn't been quite powerful, the rout soldiers would have told the truth long ago.

Now that Feng Sheng'a is dead, the power that vassalized him is like ice and snow that will melt immediately when it touches the sun, and whoever has time to leave him alive will let everyone talk about it.

Wei Jichen listened to it and was filled with emotion. Before he could make a move, all the people understood the facts and thought to themselves: "The mouth of Fangmin is better than Fangchuan. Even if you cover the sky with one hand, you can't stop this leisurely mouth. .”

Feng Sheng'a did not die on the battlefield, but died on the bed.

All the officials in Haicheng who knew the truth were all speechless, and they all kept this matter secret and kept silent.

In addition, he was afraid of affecting the morale of the soldiers, so he deliberately blocked the news. Unfortunately, the news had already spread among the people, and the government couldn't hide it even if they wanted to.

In less than two days, the city of Haicheng was already boiling, and everyone knew about it.

Some people in the city gave Fengsheng a nickname: "Death immediately!"

The government also lost face because of Feng Sheng's incident. Nie Guilin and others didn't even investigate. They sent people around to refute the rumors, and hurriedly buried him first, otherwise leaving the body would only increase the laughingstock .

As for the singers in Fengfu, who would pay more attention to them?

Not long after Wei Jichen returned to Wei Zijun's garrison, Ma Jinxu passed on the great news and asked Wei Jichen to lead troops into the city to control the situation.

As soon as Feng Sheng'a died, in Haicheng, all the armies who had defected to him after the defeat had lost their support, and Nie Guilin had no ability or prestige to overwhelm everyone.

Ma Jinxu did have such prestige, but firstly he was not good at recommending himself, and secondly Nie Guilin was watching him very closely.

Ma Jinxu thought to himself, instead of competing with Nie Guilin, it would be better to let the famous Wei Jichen enter the city quickly, use his prestige to overwhelm the generals, stabilize the chaotic military morale as soon as possible, and stop the increasingly serious power struggle in the city , and then make a request to the court.

The military organization of the Qing Dynasty was very chaotic, and many generals were actually at the same level. Therefore, no one would submit to each other. Of course, if you have actual records, that is another matter. After all, submit to the strong and worship the strong. It's human nature to be strong.

Just like the reason why Nie Shicheng was able to become the president of the East Army, it was because he led the army in North Korea fiercely, and his prestige was so long that he subdued everyone. Therefore, as soon as Song Qing left, the court immediately considered it. he.

Also, Gong Zhaoyu, as Lushun Dockyard Project and Beiyang Navy's Land and Water Battalion Office before Jiawu, was an outsider in commanding battles, combat operations, and training. Why did the court appoint him to control the army? First, where is his official position? prestige.

It's a pity that this person is also a person who is greedy for life and afraid of death. Now he has fled to Tianjin, and the Qing court is about to arrest him and hand him over to the Ministry of Punishment for interrogation.

Wei Jichen now has enough prestige and position, so as long as he enters the city to suppress the dissatisfied armies, the court will naturally consider letting him lead the armies in Haicheng.

What's more, Wei Jichen now not only has more than 500 sergeants from the original Wei Zijun, but also more than 1000 original sergeants from Mucheng who were captured by him as coolies. Once Feng Sheng'a died, Wei Jichen would not hand over these people again .

"It seems that my illness should be cured." Wei Jichen looked at Wang Huaiqing who came to deliver the news, and said with a smile.

Wang Huaiqing was very curious about how Wei Jichen and Nie Cairong killed Feng Sheng. According to his news, Feng Sheng was clearly killed by a woman.

If he hadn't known that Wei Jichen was the murderer behind the scenes, he would never have thought that Feng Sheng's death was due to assassination.

It's a pity that Wei Jichen and Nie Cairong didn't reveal half of this trip to him.

"Yes, my lord, if you don't see Li Yunfei and the others again, I'm afraid my subordinates won't be able to stop them. Moreover, the matter of your lord and the young lady is spreading widely outside." Wang Huaiqing suppressed his smile, looked at the sitting Nie Cairong at the bedside said.

Nie Cairong frowned, and said nonchalantly, "Let's just say whatever they want, there's nothing between me and big brother."

If there was no adultery between you, the old sow would have climbed the tree, Wang Huaiqing teased secretly in his heart.

"Cairong, we should pay more attention when we are in front of people. After all, you are still a sentry officer of Wei Zijun, and you are also dressed as a man." Wei Jichen looked at Nie Cairong with a sweet face, and reminded aloud .

This woman, before being conquered by you, was arrogant and dismissive of you, but after being conquered by you, she is submissive and at your mercy.

Nie Cairong agreed, but she thought in her heart: As long as I get closer to my elder brother in front of people, people will think that he has bad habits. In this way, I will definitely not introduce women to him in the future, even if I go to have fun, I will not. will pull him up.

Nie Cairong, who thought she had a plan, was complacent, with a sly smile on the corner of her mouth.

Wang Huaiqing rubbed his forehead, and said: "My lord, when you were not around, some of the people outside would intentionally or unintentionally ask your subordinates what you think about the vacant position."

It is inevitable that the soldiers will die before the battle, and the position of Wei Zijun's officer has also been vacant, which makes many people jealous.

But none of them dared to ask Wei Jichen directly. The dead general was still alive, and they were afraid that asking Wei Jichen would arouse his resentment. Therefore, Wei Jichen's personal captain Wang Huaiqing became a very popular figure.

Wei Jichen didn't dislike his subordinates wanting to climb up.

As long as you don't use some nasty means, just show your talent, proper competition will arouse everyone's competitive spirit, and then turn this competitive spirit into motivation, showing your talent will attract Wei Jichen's attention, so that the generals will be able to compete. Will continue to improve their own level in the competition.

Wei Jichen thought about it for a while, and decided to make arrangements after entering Haicheng. These things are quite troublesome, and it won't be settled in a short while.
