Super Dictator

After Wei Jichen and Li Queer left Feng Mansion, they hurried to Xianyunju.

Li Queer's face turned pale, and she was panicking all the way. She stumbled and fell to the ground from time to time.

Wei Jichen had no choice but to find the carriage at night, so he had no choice but to pick up Li Que'er amidst her exclamations.

Wei Jichen, who comes from modern times, doesn't have so many worries after all.

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

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

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

Maybe it started after meeting this cousin.

Fortunately, Feng Mansion itself was not far from Chunxiang Pavilion, and Xianyun Residence was opposite Chunxiang Pavilion. Therefore, Wei Jichen didn't take long to carry Li Que'er to the front of the inn.

After gently putting her down, Wei Jichen analyzed it slowly and said, "It's already late tonight and the city gate has been closed for a long time. How about we rest here for one night and wait until we find out the situation tomorrow before making plans?"

Wei Jichen believed that he had done it secretly enough. Even if someone could see some clues, he would not be looking for trouble.

A dimple appeared on the left side of Li Que'er's face. She nodded sweetly and said, "I will listen to my cousin in everything."

"Sister Que'er, you have to forget what happened tonight, and you can't mention it to anyone, otherwise the slightest bit of information will be leaked, and we will be doomed." Wei Jichen solemnly told him.

Li Queer pursed her lips and replied seriously: "Cousin, please don't worry, even if I lose my life, my sister will not reveal a single word."

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

Seeing Wei Jichen coming back, Nie Cairong couldn't wait to throw himself into his arms.

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

Nie Cairong raised his head and saw Li Queer standing nearby with an envious look on his face. He couldn't help but feel hot and shy. He struggled out of Wei Jichen's arms and said with a smile, "Cairong knows these things right." For Brother Wei, it’s all a piece of cake.”

"You really treat me like a person." Wei Jichen smiled and tapped the tip of her white jade-like nose.

Li Queer couldn't help but feel sad when she saw the two of them laughing and scolding.

After a moment, the three of them sat down respectively. Wei Jichen looked at Li Que'er, pondered for a moment, and then said: "Sister Que'er, now that I have caused a huge disaster, it is no longer appropriate to stay in Haicheng. The two of us will leave tomorrow." Go out of the city and continue wandering."

Li Que'er's heart tightened, and she wanted to say I'll go with you, but when she saw Nie Cairong and Wei Jichenlang's concubine-like expressions, she swallowed her words.

If you are a ruined person, don’t have any more wishful thinking!

Seeing Li Queer's sad face, Wei Jichen thought she was sad to see her farewell.

He took out a few silver notes from his arms. In addition to the ones Li Que'er gave him last time, Wei Jichen added a few hundred taels and said seriously: "Sister Que'er, I can't be around to take care of you in the future. You can take care of these silver taels." Just take it and open a wine shop or something, and then you can marry a good man."

Li Queer sniffed, held back tears, took the bank note and said with a smile: "I appreciate your cousin's kindness. I hope you and I can meet again someday."

"We will meet each other if we are destined." Wei Jichen sighed in his heart and said calmly.

Li Que'er buried the newly rising affection in her heart well and started talking and laughing with Nie Cairong.

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

In the hazy night of the night, Wei Jichen seemed to feel someone kissing his cheek gently while he was half awake and half dreaming.

The next morning, when the waiter came to deliver toilet towels, he saw another beautiful woman in the room. His face was full of envy and he quietly gave Wei Jichen a thumbs up.

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

Wei Jichen was sitting in the lobby on the first floor and could hear people around him talking about Feng Sheng'a's death.

"Have you heard? General Feng worked hard and worried about the current situation. He worked hard all night last night, and it passed like this. Alas, a general who was good at conquering and fighting passed away like this. Who will guard this sea city in the future? "

"Bah, you believe whatever the government says. You're thinking all the bullshit. I have a distant relative who works as a day laborer in Feng Mansion. I saw with my own eyes how Feng Sheng'a 'died' of illness last night."

"Oh, tell me?"

Grapevine is always welcome.

"I heard that he is an old man in love affairs. He has sex with women every night and will not sleep until he has sex for the last time. However, he is old and weak, has low energy and has no way to survive. He relies on drugs every night to keep him entertained. Last night For some reason, he accidentally took more than a dozen aphrodisiacs, which eventually led to his death and his devotion to the imperial court. "

Such breaking news immediately shocked everyone who was talking about it.

After a while, everyone's discussion became more heated.

"Brother, your news is out of date a long time ago. Do you know where that old guy Fengsheng died?"

"where?"

"where?"

Everyone around him became interested and stretched their necks to ask curious questions.

The old man who just looked disdainful of saying that other people's news was out of date first looked around, then lowered his head and said softly: "He died on horseback, naked and naked."

"no!"

People around him screamed.

"Can this person be a human or an animal? This Fengsheng'a is truly a genius of our Qing Dynasty."

"This news is absolutely true." The man who tirelessly revealed the truth raised the empty glass in his hand, and people around him immediately helped him fill it with drinks.

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

The man paused and continued: "Then I inquired secretly, and happened to see several servants from the Feng Mansion hurriedly passing by my house carrying burdens. I knew most of these servants from the Feng Mansion, so I pulled them over to inquire. , I got such a piece of news, and several people said it accurately. Do you think it’s true or not?”

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

"You can't be good at fighting, but he is just greedy for life and afraid of death. Do you know why Ximu City was captured by the Japanese? It was him who led the troops to escape, which led to the disorganization of the army and its immediate defeat." That man lives in Li Feng Mansion. Recently, he knew a lot of inside information. Now that Feng Sheng'a died, he lost a lot of worries and it all came out at once.

"Then why are there rumors that he killed so many Japanese in Ximucheng?" Another person asked again.

"You don't know this. The defenders of Ximu City did kill many Japanese, but it was not done by Fengsheng'a, but by General Wei Jichen. The old guy Fengsheng'a took the credit for General Wei. It’s all on me.”

"It turns out to be General Wei. Let me just say, this Feng Sheng'a has been defeated repeatedly before, so why did he win a big battle all of a sudden? He is really nothing. He even robbed General Wei of his achievements. He died well. ah."

Everyone was immediately convinced by the news. After all, Wei Jichen led the army to annihilate the Japanese in Mayang Town, which was done by many people personally. However, Fengsheng'a's statement about how he killed the Japanese in Ximu City was all nonsense. Damn it, no one saw it at all.

And some of the defeated soldiers who escaped had already sneered at his claims. If Fengsheng'a wasn't so powerful, they would have told the truth long ago.

Now that Feng Sheng'a is dead, the forces that attached to him melt away like ice and snow when it meets the sun. Whoever has time to leave what happened during his lifetime is left to everyone to talk about.

Wei Jichen listened to the side and sighed. Before he took action, the people understood the facts and thought to himself: "It is better to defend the people than to defend the river. Even if you cover the sky with your hands, you can't stop this long mouth." ”

Fengsheng'a did not die on the battlefield, but died on his bed.

All the officials in Haicheng were speechless when they learned the truth. They all kept the matter secret and remained silent.

And for fear of affecting the morale of the soldiers, they deliberately blocked the news. Unfortunately, the news had already spread among the public, and the government could not hide it even if they wanted to.

In less than two days, Haicheng has made the whole city excited and everyone knows about it.

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

The government also lost face due to Feng Sheng'a's incident. Nie Guilin and others did not even investigate. While sending people around to refute the rumors, they hurriedly buried him first, otherwise leaving his body would only serve as a laughing stock. .

As for the singers in Feng Mansion, who would pay more attention to them.

Not long after Wei Jichen returned to Wei Zijun's station, Ma Jinxu delivered the good news and asked Wei Jichen to quickly lead troops into the city to control the situation.

After Feng Sheng'a's death, all the armies in Haicheng that had defected to him after the defeat now had no one to rely on, and Nie Guilin simply had no ability or prestige to overwhelm everyone.

Ma Jinxu did have such prestige, but he recommended himself when it was difficult for him to do so. Secondly, Nie Guilin was eyeing him very closely.

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

The military establishment of the Qing Dynasty was very chaotic. Many generals were actually of the same rank, so no one would obey anyone. Of course, if you have actual achievements, that would be a different matter. After all, you must submit to the strong and worship the strong. Being strong is human nature.

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

Also, before the First Sino-Japanese War, Gong Zhaoxuan served as the director of Lushun Shipyard Engineering and the Beiyang Navy Amphibious and Land Camping Office. He was an amateur in commanding, fighting, and training. Why did the imperial court appoint him to control the armies? Firstly, where was his official position? Secondly, he had some prestige.

It is a pity that this man is also a man who is greedy for life and afraid of death. Now he has fled to Tianjin. The Qing court is about to capture him and hand him over to the Ministry of Justice for interrogation.

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

What's more, Wei Jichen now has in his hands not only more than 500 sergeants from the original Wei Zijun, but also more than 1,000 former sergeants from Ximucheng who were kidnapped by him as coolies. After Fengsheng'a died, Wei Jichen would not hand over these people again. out.

"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 Fengsheng'a. According to the information he received, Fengsheng'a clearly died of a woman.

If he hadn't known that Wei Jichen was the murderer, he would never have thought that Feng Sheng'a died in an assassination.

Unfortunately, Wei Jichen and Nie Cairong didn't reveal anything about this trip to him.

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

Nie Cairong frowned and said nonchalantly: "It's whatever they agreed to. The relationship between me and eldest brother is innocent."

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

"Cairong, we should pay more attention when we are in front of people in the future. 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, who had a sweet look on his face, and reminded him. .

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

Nie Cairong agreed, but in his heart he thought: As long as my eldest brother and I are more intimate in front of others, everyone will think that he has bad habits. In this way, he will definitely not introduce women to him in the future, even if he goes to have fun. Will catch him.

Nie Cairong, who thought he had succeeded, looked complacent on the sidelines, with a sly smile on his lips.

Wang Huaiqing touched his forehead and said: "Sir, while you were away, several people outside asked your subordinates intentionally or unintentionally what you thought of the vacant position."

Soldiers were inevitably killed in battle, and the positions of Wei Zijun officers were also vacant, making many people jealous.

But they didn't dare to ask Wei Jichen directly. The dead general's body was still cold, and they were afraid that asking Wei Jichen would arouse his resentment. Therefore, Wei Jichen's captain Wang Huaiqing became a hot figure.

Wei Jichen was not disgusted with the idea of ​​his subordinates trying to climb up the ladder.

As long as you don't use some dirty means, just show your talent. Proper competition will arouse everyone's competitiveness, and then turn this competitiveness into motivation, and show your talent to attract Wei Jichen's attention. Only in this way will the generals be able to Will continue to improve their level in the competition.

Wei Jichen thought for a while and decided to make arrangements after entering Haicheng. These things were quite troublesome and could not be settled in a short time.
