Chapter 131 Niu Jinxing's Poisonous Scheme
Li Zicheng asked Niu Jinxing: "Mr. Niu, what do you think? Please tell me! I'll listen carefully!"
Niu Jinxing stood up and said, "King of Chuang, Zhang Biwu does this not all for us! He is mainly for himself! King of Chuang, Yang Sichang is not dead, but is just seriously ill. Zhang Biwu and Yang Sichang are as powerful as water and fire. He is now in trouble, which is what Yang Sichang gave!"
"He defeated Zhang Xianzhong but put his troops in trouble, and did not let the generals or Zuo Liangyu suffer losses. This is also a way to win people's hearts and increase his reputation. It seems very stupid, but he will gain more in the future! The greater his contribution, the greater the promotion will be! At that time, he will become a major center and hold heavy troops. At that time, it will be our biggest trouble. It is far better than other wise generals!"
Niu Jinxing said this, paused, looked at Li Zicheng, and asked, "King Chuang, just imagine, if you fight with Zhang Biwu, who has no one to restrain him, will you be sure to win? And does our army want to surrender the Ming Dynasty to overthrow the Ming Dynasty? Even if Cao's camp comes to join us, it will definitely be a different dream, and it will never be a single rope. This is also our shortcoming! Of course, Cao Cao doesn't know whether to come or join us now!"
Li Zicheng nodded and said, "Yes! Mr. Niu, you are right! I have always wanted to separate Zhang Biwu from the official army! But I have always had no choice but to do it! What should you do?"
Niu Jinxing smiled and said, "Yang Sichang! Yang Wuling! Hehe! Still him! He is very jealous of those who have made military achievements! Forced to harm him! What's more, Zhang Biwu has a great grudge with him? And he is also glorious with Zuo Liangyu? We can write a letter to send someone to Zhang Biwu and say thank you for your kindness! Everything is as he thought, first alienate the relationship between Zhang Xianzhong and Cao Cao."
"Cao Cao has sent someone to discuss with us! If Chuangzhang can unite with Caozhang, all this is his plan and his contribution! When Yang Wuling saw him, could he not hold the handle tightly and try to kill Zhang Biwu? When Zhang Biwu designed for us to let Chongzhen know, Zhang Biwu was naturally desperate! At that time, only a debater would have to convince him who was desperate! Chuangzhang would be able to win a powerful general at that time!"
Niu Jinxing said this and changed the subject: "After that being said, if Zhang Biwu would rather die than surrender to the King of Chuang, then there would be no regrets for a foolish and loyal person like him! A foolish and loyal person will only be our eternal enemy, so being eliminated can be considered a great disaster!"
Li Zicheng frowned and said, "Mr. Niu, a plan is a good plan, but is it too poisonous?" In fact, Li Zicheng agreed in his heart. He had to pretend to be kind, and Li Zicheng was also afraid that his reputation would be damaged and he would attract bad reputation.
"Haha!" Niu Jinxing naturally saw through Li Zicheng's heart. He laughed and said, "King of Chuang! This is not called poison! We are also trying to save Zhang Biwu! No matter how he serves the corrupt Ming Dynasty, he can only end up like Han Xin died in Weiyang Palace, Bai Qi committed suicide, and Ming Taizu burned the heroic officials' building! We are trying to save him! This proves that King of Chuang is a savior!"
"Prove that the King of Chuang is a savior" is equivalent to telling Li Zicheng that his reputation will not be damaged. Li Zicheng smiled and said, "Okay! Mr. Niu, just execute it immediately! This matter is confidential! You must not let others know! I know this matter!"
Niu Jinxing knew about Li Zicheng's thoughts, and he wanted Zhang Biwu to be devoted to Li Zicheng, so Li Zicheng was afraid that if Zhang Biwu knew about it, he would be angry and unfaithful. He would rot in his stomach for this matter.
Only Li Yan was unhappy about Song Xiance and Li Yan who were discussing next to him.
Li Zicheng asked, "Lin Quan, what's wrong with you? Do you have any objections?" Niu Jinxing seemed very nervous because he knew that among Li Zicheng's subordinates, Li Yan was his biggest competitor, and others were not worth worrying about.
Li Yan replied: "Oh! Actually, I have the same idea as King Chuang. This plan is too poisonous! There is no airtight wall in the world. If someone knows, I am afraid that the reputation of King Chuang will be mistakenly!"
Hearing this, Niu Jinxing's face changed completely, and he was very unhappy! Seeing this, Li Zicheng didn't want his aide to have a dispute. Besides, didn't Niu Jinxing say it just now? Instead, it proved that he was a savior! He coughed, and he had promised Niu Jinxing to let Niu Jinxing do this, and now he would not be the purpose of the wise ruler.
When Li Yan saw Niu Jinxing's face was not good, and Li Zicheng's unhappy expression flashed by, and he no longer dared to stick to his opinion. In addition, Song Xiance kept signaling.
Li Yan had to let go in the end: "Okay! Since the King of Chuang has made a decision, then follow the King of Chuang decides!"
"Hmph!" Niu Jinxing couldn't help but sneer. He was proud of his heart, knowing that Li Yan could not make any waves. This time he must do it beautifully and compare Li Yan. Niu Jinxing hurriedly did it.
It is this move that will bring great harm to Zhang Biwu! After all, Yang Sichang is as anxious as an ant on a hot pan.
When Yang Sichang saw Zhang Biwu and Zuo Liangyu constantly defeating Zhang Xianzhong and making great contributions, he sighed. Zuo Liangyu and Zhang Biwu's compliment was his misfortune. He walked around and kept thinking about how to overthrow Zhang Biwu and Zuo Liangyu.
When Yang Sichang saw Wan Ji coming in, he asked, "How is it? But is there anything wrong with Zhang Biwu's wife coming? And what news is coming from Yuan Ti'an?"
Wan Ji replied: "My Lord, there is no news from Yuan Ti'an, because the contact between Zhang Biwu and his second wife is confidential and cannot be known! But I still found it out!"
"Oh!" Yang Sichang asked anxiously: "What did you find out? Say it quickly!" Wan Ji hurriedly replied: "Zhang Biwu's second wife Delis was originally a foreigner, and her family has been merchants for generations. So she knew many merchants, so she could buy red cannons and firearms through these foreigners!"
"What!" Yang Sichang was shocked and said, "The Western red cannons are much better than those made by our Ming Dynasty! He wanted to buy a large number of Western firearms through foreign merchants, but he did not report to the court. Is this a ill-intentioned plan? Hehe! But this can catch his handle! But he can also say that he wants to strengthen his strength, which is conducive to suppressing the thieves! But if he reports to the court without reporting to the court, he will eventually be punished!"
Wan Ji nodded: "Yes! Master Ge said it well! But there is one thing that Master Ge must have never imagined!"
Yang Sichang was interested and asked anxiously: "What is it? Tell me quickly!"
Wan Ji told the truth: "We caught a new person. This person originally wanted to touch Zhang Biwu's tent directly, but he didn't expect our patrol soldiers to cruise around Zhang Biwu. Of course, this is thanks to the premonition of the Pavilion Master to guard against any adverse actions Zhang Biwu would have. Do you know?"
"This thief is actually Li Zicheng's envoy! And he found the Waxmanxin from his hair! The content of Waxmanxin was saying that he wanted Zhang Biwu to cooperate. He also thanked Zhang Biwu for driving Luo Rucai out of Zhang Xianzhong, so that he and Luo Rucai jointly established his momentum."
"Li Zicheng! Damn the thief!" Yang Sichang knew Li Zicheng's tough and unyielding character very well, so when he went out of the capital to suppress the thieves, he once said that all the thieves could be pardoned, but Li Zicheng could never be pardoned. Among all the thieves, except Zhang Xianzhong, only Li Zicheng was the one who scared him the most.
Yang Sichang also knew that the imperial court's military strength in Henan was very empty, which made Li Zicheng get a hole. Now Li Zicheng is in Henan, and it would be even more difficult if he adds Luo Rucai! And now Zhang Xianzhong has not yet been wiped out, only by destroying Zhang Xianzhong!
Wan Ji looked at Yang Sichang, and Yang Sichang smiled and said, "Okay! Jiren, you should dig up quickly and dig out the inside story of Li Zicheng and Zhang Biwu's affair! You also ask Yuan Ti'an to take good care of me and find out the inside story of Zhang Biwu! Of course, he is new to Zhang Biwu. If he can find out, I will not report hope, but he can only be a dead horse as a living horse doctor!"
Of course, Wan Ji knew that if he could dig out the news of Zhang Biwu's affair with Li Zicheng and listed the crime, he would have killed Zhang Biwu.
Wan Ji handed the letter to Yang Sichang and asked Yang Sichang to read it. Yang Sichang took it and took a closer look. After reading it, he began to think about it.
Especially the letter said that Li Zicheng said to Zhang Biwu that if there is any danger, you can come and vote for him! It would be too dangerous if Zhang Biwu really forced him to vote for Li Zicheng! You can't let Zhang Biwu take this path, and you will be afraid that you will not be able to escape responsibility at that time!
Yang Sichang was still thinking about taking advantage of Zhang Biwu to report the news that Zhang Xianzhong had broken up! But he had to report to Emperor Chongzhen quickly. If it was too late, it would be too late!
Yang Sichang urged Wan Ji to be tried quickly no matter what, so as to prove his crime. Wan Ji understood that he naturally went to do it quickly, and he wanted to do it well.
At the same time, Yang Sichang also wanted to catch Delis, and then found out from her that Zhang Biwu wanted to buy the red cannons for the purpose of making a ill-gotten plot. Of course, the people he sent were pretending to be bandits to catch Delis.
Wan Ji was interrogating Li Zicheng's envoy in a hurry. Li Zicheng's envoy brought out everything. Of course, Li Zicheng would not send someone who knows too much as an envoy, and most of the words were just superficial.
Wan Ji was about to hand over the sorted confession to Yang Sichang for a look, but he heard another news that the original three-sided governor Zheng Chongjian was extremely annoyed because he did not obey Yang Sichang's dispatch. Chongzhen ordered Zheng Chongjian to be arrested and imprisoned. Ding Qirui replaced Zheng Chongjian as the three-sided governor.
Ding Qirui is Yang Sichang's relationship is quite good. If he is the governor of the three sides, it will undoubtedly be extremely beneficial to Yang Sichang. It can be said that this is another excellent news. Ding Qirui even wrote a letter, and he will personally lead his army to Yang Sichang's command to wait for the dispatch, and he will stand in front of the horse and behind the horse.
