East Factory Governor

Chapter 74

As usual, Wang Chengen rewarded Qin Shuhuai with a 100 tael silver ticket, and then told him to leave here quickly at night.

Qin Shuhuai came out of the imperial prison, took a leisurely stroll through Chang'an Street, and then stayed in the inn, feeling quite good.

Wang Chengen couldn't wait to deal with Li Daliang, and the cooperation with the Demon Cult was just around the corner. As long as he continued to do the ideological work of Tong Chongzhen, it would be difficult for him not to take over the Jianghe Gang!

It is now July, and there are still three months before the October Jisi Change.I have to take charge of the Jianghe Gang as soon as possible, and then I can flex my muscles in the change of Jisi, win enough political capital, and add a heavy bargaining chip to take charge of the East Factory!

After a good night's sleep in the inn, he arrived at Liushi Academy on time at [-]:[-] the next day.

This time there was no need for a notification, he was directly led to an exquisite study room, where Chongzhen was waiting for him.Behind him, as usual, stood Wang Dehua.

Qin Shuhuai gave a grand gift to the monarch and ministers first.

"My minister Qin Shuhuai, kowtow to the emperor! Long live my emperor!"

Chongzhen was still as polite as ever, he came down to help Qin Shuhuai himself, and said, "Shuhuai, there is no need to be so formal between you and me, sit down quickly."

Then he said to Wang Dehua, "Go and watch outside, no one is allowed to come in."

Wang Dehua responded and went out.

Chongzhen said, "Brother Qin took the position of Jianghe Gang Xiangzhu in just a few days, he really deserves to be a high-ranking disciple of Guigu!"

Qin Shuhuai said, "I am entrusted by the emperor, so I dare not slack off for a day. Now that Dongchang has participated in politics, and the Jianghe gang is rapidly becoming a big one, I am afraid that my actions will be too slow and delay the emperor's plan."

Chongzhen said, "Brother Qin is loyal to me, and I know it. But this matter will not happen overnight, and Brother Qin should not be too anxious." After a pause, he suddenly changed the subject and said, "Brother Qin seems to know the imperial eunuch. The palm seal of the king?"

This turning point is a bit blunt, which shows that Chongzhen is very concerned about this matter and is eager to know the answer.

Qin Shuhuai knew that the person following him must have reported to Chongzhen.

This is exactly what I want.

Qin Shuhuai gave a wry smile at first, and then said, "Since the emperor asked, I have no choice but to tell. At the beginning, I was forced to join the Jianghe Gang by the prince. That day, I accidentally fell victim to something called 'Half Moon Rotten Corpse'." San' poison, you need to take the antidote every half a month to survive. In desperation, I had no choice but to go to the Jianghe gang with the prince. "

Chongzhen was startled, and said, "Is this really the case?"

Qin Shuhuai smiled wryly again, and said, "This poison has not been cured yet, and it is still on Weichen."

Chongzhen immediately said, "Go and call Wang Dehua in."

Qin Shuhuai went out the door and saw Wang Dehua standing [-] steps away from the door in order to show that he did not eavesdrop.

After calling Wang Dehua in, Chongzhen asked Wang Dehua to feel Qin Shuhuai's pulse.Wang Dehua held Qin Shuhuai's pulse for a while, with a slight surprise on his face, he said to Chongzhen, "Report to the emperor, brother Qin seems to have been poisoned by some kind of poison."

Chongzhen nodded expressionlessly, then waved to Wang Dehua, signaling him to go out.

After Wang Dehua went out, Chongzhen slapped the table and said angrily, "This Wang Chengen, what is he trying to do?"

Qin Shuhuai said, "Actually, what Wang Gonggong thinks is nothing more than the same as the emperor. He sent humble ministers into the Jianghe Gang, and he also wanted to control the Jianghe Gang's movements. The Wang Gonggong is afraid of the Jianghe Gang, but he is actually afraid of Dongchang. Bringing out Wei Zhongxian is not good for the emperor!"

Chongzhen shook his head and said, "Brother Qin, he hurt you so much, and you still speak for him like this?"

Qin Shuhuai smiled lightly, and said, "Your Majesty, loyalty is loyalty, treachery is treachery, and the humble minister is just telling the truth. The prince is loyal to the emperor, but sometimes he acts in a hurry. It is precisely because of this that Wei I don't want to tell the emperor about this matter, so as not to cause a rift between the emperor and him."

Qin Shuhuai is very clear that Chongzhen still trusts Wang Chengen very much. If he speaks ill of Wang Chengen at this time, Chongzhen will definitely doubt his intentions.Moreover, I don't want Chongzhen to turn against Wang Chengen now, otherwise Wang Chengen knows how he will deal with him knowing that he has told Chongzhen the truth.

In the end, I have only one purpose for doing this, and that is to let Chongzhen know that Wang Chengen is secretly dealing with Dongchang, so that Wang Chengen can take all kinds of scapegoats for him when necessary.

For example, next time I want to kill the four big bosses of the Jianghe Gang.As far as Chongzhen was concerned, even if he wanted to help himself to the top, he didn't want to kill these four extremely capable Dongchang elites.According to Chongzhen's way of thinking, he would slowly allow himself to gain more prestige and a higher status in the Jianghe Gang, and after reaching a certain level, he would find excuses to transfer some of them away, and then let himself take the position, but this is undoubtedly too slow up.

If I let Chongzhen know that I was going to kill the four big bosses of the Jianghe Gang, not only would I be furious, but my ambition would also be exposed without a doubt.But if Wang Chengen is blamed for the blame, then there is nothing wrong with him.

Isn't he, Wang Cheng'en, going to deal with Dongchang?Then he sent someone to kill the boss of the Jianghe gang, which is completely reasonable!

Not only that, but all the dirty methods I used to deal with Dongchang in the future can be pushed to Wang Chengen. Where can I find such a good "back-up man"?
So, now he wants to speak good words for Wang Chengen, try his best to speak good words.The more Chongzhen knew that Wang Chengen was loyal, the more Chongzhen would be reluctant to kill Wang Chengen, and Wang Chengen would be able to bear more scapegoats.

After listening to Qin Shuhuai's words, Chongzhen also shook his head with a wry smile, and said, "This Wang Chengen! I don't want him to be the factory owner, it seems that I have a knot in my heart!"

Chongzhen grew up with Wang Chengen since he was a child, so his trust in Wang Chengen is naturally immeasurable.But he also knew that Wang Chengen sometimes acted aggressively, so he never dared to let him take power.The position of Governor of the East Factory should have been Wang Chengen's. It was because he was too radical that he might cause a bloodbath in the court, so he let the more calm Cao Huachun take up the position.

Looking at Qin Shuhuai, Chongzhen said again, "So, the two men in black who came to help you that day are also from the palm of the king?"

Qin Shuhuai smiled wryly, expressing his acquiescence.

Chongzhen said, "Brother Qin, thank you for your hard work. I will find someone to help you cure this poison."

Qin Shuhuai smiled and said, "The poison is gone, I believe the next time I see the emperor, I will force it out."

This is the truth, and it is something that Chongzhen must know.Otherwise, if Chongzhen couldn't find someone to help him detoxify, he would doubt whether his life was in Wang Chengen's hands, and whether he could devote himself wholeheartedly to Chongzhen.

Chongzhen was a little surprised and said, "I heard that poisoned people need extremely strong internal force to force them out. Is Brother Qin's internal force already so strong?"

"My ghost valley has quite a bit of martial arts heritage. It's not difficult for mere little poison to force it out, it just takes some time."

Chongzhen nodded, thoughtfully, and said, "Brother Qin, I heard that you in the Jianghe Gang claim to be from the Jade Sword Sect?"

Qin Shuhuai had expected it a long time ago, and said, "This Jade Sword Sect was also fabricated by Wang Gonggong in order to cover up my identity. For this identity, he even took care of the Jade Sword Sect, and it took great pains."

Wang Chengen, the all-round "back-up man", is starting to come in handy...

Chongzhen smiled helplessly, "This old thing..."
