East Factory Governor

Chapter 435 Returning to Beijing
Qin Shuhuai was very conflicted.

If he goes back now, he will have nothing to do in the future.Originally, if according to history, Hong Chengchou took over as governor of the three sides after Yang He stepped down, then he could return to Beijing with confidence.But now it seems that Chongzhen probably doesn't intend to let Hong Chengchou be the governor of the three sides, which will be troublesome.

If Zhang Xianzhong and Li Zicheng on the three sides continue to grow bigger, it will be difficult to wipe them out in the future.Don't forget that in history, these two people are the real protagonists, and they also have the aura of protagonists, okay?
So just find a reason not to go back?

If he insisted on not going back, Chongzhen probably wouldn't come directly, at least it would be no problem to delay for a month or two, so Zhang Xianzhong might be wiped out first.

However, wouldn't Chongzhen feel more worried about himself?Originally, he might just have some doubts, but if he procrastinated and didn't go back, with his character, he would definitely doubt himself even more.

Seeing that Qin Shuhuai was speechless for a long time, Wang Chengen said, "Qin Shaobao, the emperor has said that the situation is urgent, please leave tomorrow."

Qin Shuhuai thought for a while and said, "Wang Sili, don't worry, since the emperor is in a hurry, Ben Shaobao will follow the order and return to Beijing tomorrow morning."

Wang Chengen smiled triumphantly, "Hehe, it's so good, so good."

Qin Shuhuai said to Wang Chengen, "Wang Sili must be tired after coming from a long distance, so let's go to rest. Ben Shaobao still has important military affairs, so I won't accompany you."

Immediately issued an expulsion order.

Li Jingting on the side understood and said directly to Wang Chengen, "Wang Sili, please."

Wang Chengen chuckled, "In that case, our family will not bother Qin Shaobao anymore, and we will leave."

Then walked away.

Li Jingting sent Wang Chengen to the door, handed him over to a soldier, and immediately returned to Qin Shuhuai, "Shaobao, the emperor wants to call you back to Beijing? What's going on here? Could it be that Shaobao sits on the three sides?" , the emperor is not at ease?"

Qin Shuhuai gave Li Jingting a blank look, and said, "Jingting, don't talk nonsense. The emperor invited me back to Beijing because he has other important matters to discuss, so don't worry about it."

Li Jingting knew that he had made a slip of the tongue, so he pleaded guilty, and then stopped talking.

Qin Shuhuai pondered for a while, and then said, "Jing Ting, I hope you can take the Wuyuan camp. If possible, follow the previous plan, together with Cao Wenzhao and Du Wenhuan, fight against Zhang Xianzhong in southern Jin. As long as you can Hurt him hard, and Gao Yingxiang's department in Shaanxi will restrain himself a little, so that the pressure will be less after the new governor comes."

Li Jingting thought for a while, and was about to answer, but Qin Shuhuai changed his words again.

"Forget it, you can go back with me, none of us can stay, or the emperor..." After speaking half a sentence, Qin Shuhuai realized that he had said a little too much, and swallowed the second half of the sentence .

If he still keeps his own people on the three sides, Chongzhen will definitely suspect that he wants to grab the military power of the three sides.

From the bottom of his heart, Qin Shuhuai really regarded Chongzhen as a brother, and he would never do anything that would affect the brotherhood unless it was absolutely necessary.On this point, he believed that Chongzhen also held the same idea as him.

It's just that they are a monarch and a minister, and after all, they can't really act like brothers in many things.What lies before them is the most dangerous thing in the world—sovereignty.This is the life and dignity of Chongzhen, and he will never allow anyone to pose a threat to him.

If Chongzhen wanted peace of mind, Qin Shuhuai would try his best to give him peace of mind.

But the prerequisite is that Chongzhen cannot pose a threat to his main mission.

To become the governor of Dongchang, to calm the world, rebuild the prosperous world, and let all directions come to court, this is the goal he must achieve.Just as Chongzhen does not allow anyone to pose a threat to his monarchy, he does not allow anyone to pose a threat to his main mission.

Therefore, he is destined not to be Yue Fei, nor Gengyao back then.His tolerance for Chongzhen also has a bottom line.

Like Chongzhen, he is also trying to find a way for the two parties to achieve each other's goals without destroying the brotherhood.After all, their goal is the same, that is ZTE Daming.

Li Jingting looked at Qin Shuhuai who had a heavy complexion and was in a dilemma, and his heart also had ripples: In this troubled world, it is really difficult to do something.On the one hand, he wanted to calm down the three sides, and on the other hand, he wanted to reassure the emperor.

After a while, Qin Shuhuai let out a long sigh and said, "Notify the brothers, pack up your things, and we will return to Beijing early tomorrow morning."

Li Jingting replied with a heavy tone, "This subordinate knows." After a pause, he said again, "Don't think too much about Shaobao, maybe the emperor really has something urgent to call you back to Beijing. There are Hong Chengchou and the others here on the three sides. It's okay."

Qin Shuhuai forced a smile, "Maybe."

As soon as the news came out, the brothers of the Jianghe gang were all puzzled. Li Jingting quickly explained that the emperor had something important to call Qin gang leader back to Beijing.Originally, this was a very normal explanation. Unexpectedly, a few "old men" in the gang who thought they were smart started to interpret it indiscriminately on their own. His meritorious service is so high that the emperor wants to lure him back to Beijing to inquire about his crimes.

As soon as the rumor spread, many people believed it immediately.Because these people from the Jianghu were already very wary of the imperial court, but now their leader has a great reputation both in the Jianghu and the military, and he has made great military exploits in all victories. They said that the emperor is afraid of his great achievements, of course they believe it.

They have heard too much about this kind of thing, isn't that how Yue Fei died?
No, the boss can't go back!What is our Jianghe gang afraid of that little emperor?We have [-] elite soldiers, and we have allies like Shaolin and the Beggar Gang, and even the White Lotus Sect and the Demon Sect to help, who is afraid of whom?

Lai San'er was the first to jump up, followed by Chen Jing, who led the brothers to the Governor's Mansion to petition.

Meng Hu, Li Jingting and others wanted to stop them but they couldn't.

When Qin Shuhuai saw more than 1000 Jianghe Gang brothers kneeling on the ground in the yard, he was so angry that if Chongzhen knew about this, Chongzhen would doubt himself even more?
Immediately went up and kicked Lai San'er all over the yard, Chen Jing was so frightened that he didn't dare to breathe, he thought that luckily he was protected by his sister, otherwise he wouldn't be able to escape the beating.

That night, Qin Shuhuai made rough arrangements for the handover.Then he asked Li Jingting to send a message to Zhang Desheng, saying that he was going back to Beijing, and let him continue to do what he said before, no matter who is in charge of the three sides.

Early the next morning, Qin Shuhuai led the Jianghe Gang and Jin Yiwei to leave Taiyuan City.

Before leaving, he didn't say hello to any of the generals, saving Wang Chengen the opportunity to grab the conversation and go to Chongzhen to join him.

Five days later, he arrived in the capital.
