Chapter 512 The death of Hong Tianfugui and Hong Xiuquan’s death struggle!
The defeat of Wanling City on the front line made Guo Wei restless. Now the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom had lost too much territory. If he could no longer regain the lost territory, what was the point of his hard work to become the leader of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom?
When he thought of this, Guo Wei frowned. Now the defeat was certain. Even if he led the entire army to the front line to resist stubbornly, he was just fighting against a trapped beast!
Instead of foolishly going to die, it would be better to find a new home as soon as possible and plan a comeback.
According to recent exploration, in Guo Wei's opinion, the territory of Shi Xie, a prince in Jiaozhou, is very good. Shi Xie has great ambitions and few talents, and he has few capable ministers to help him, but he occupies a vast land. If Guo Wei leads his army to station in Jiaozhou, Shi Xie will
It is the first target!
"Li Mi and Shi Xie have been entrenched in Jiaozhou for a long time, and their ambitions have long been blunted. When I move in, I will definitely be able to occupy a large area of territory in a short time. I will first get rid of Shi Xie, and then annex Li Mi and dominate the entire territory.
Jiaozhou, the troops point at Jingzhou, dominate Yizhou, combine the power of the three states, return to Yangzhou, and destroy Yuan Shu's son."
Guo Wei's ambitions and ideas are very good, and he also has this strength. Although the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom's sphere of influence has shrunk a lot, its number of talents is unmatched by other rebel forces.
"Come here, go to the front line for me and send an order to Guo Ruifu, Demon King Peng, Prince Mo'ang, and the three generals to guard the country. Just hold on for two more months!"
Personal guard Zhou Chun consciously stepped in front of Guo Wei. He respectfully accepted the order, then turned around and left the tent, mounted his fast horse, and headed towards the front line.
And just when Guo Wei was plotting to shrink the country's military strength and rushing south to Jiaozhou, in the Tianjing capital, where Hong Xiuquan was under house arrest, Hai Donglai and Li Gexiao, the leaders of Yuan Shu's underworld organization, assisted by rebel officials
, they sneaked into the Heavenly King's Mansion quietly!
The guards inside and outside the Heavenly King's Mansion were tight, but for Li Gexiao and the others, it was nothing to worry about. They easily blended in and delivered the news of the death of the young king Hong Tianfugui in the name of delivering food.
Hong Xiuquan.
When Hong Xiuquan was preparing to eat, he found a lump at the bottom of the bowl. He took out the lump and took a look, and then he realized that someone had secretly sent him a letter!
"It's very courageous to deliver the letter so openly."
Hong Xiuquan looked at the letter in his hand, sneered, crumpled it into a ball with disdain, and threw it aside. After he finished eating, boredom came to his heart, prompting him to pick up the paper ball again and slowly unfold it.
Read the content above carefully.
The content of the letter is simple, clear and easy to understand. The general meaning is that after Guo Wei ascended the throne, he secretly arranged for generals Qiu Yuancai and He Zhenchuan to massacre the so-called heir to the throne, the young king Hong Tianfugui, and also blocked this information.
In a very small range!
After Hong Xiuquan read this message, his face turned pale in shock, and then he didn't believe what was written in the letter at all. Guo Wei had promised himself at the beginning that he would not attack the young king Hong Tianfugui, and he should not go back on his promise.
"Who sent this message and dared to deceive me!"
Hong Xiuquan snorted coldly, then folded the letter in half, put it under the oil lamp, and burned it. Under the bright light, he looked at the black and white words thoughtfully, could what the letter said be true?
?
This confusion has been lingering in Hong Xiuquan's mind. The more he thought about it, the more panicked he felt. After being under house arrest by Guo Wei for so long, he had no idea what was happening in the outside world. Even if his legitimate son Hong Tianfugui was as he said in the letter,
He was secretly killed by Guo Wei, and he didn't know it either!
While Hong Xiuquan was tossing and turning at night, he vaguely heard several sounds coming from the roof, and then saw two figures flashing past. Li Gexiao and Hai Donglai quickly sneaked into the Tianwang Mansion and came to Hong Xiuquan.
Beside his bed, he put a sharp sword against his neck.
"Hong Xiuquan, tsk tsk tsk, don't you feel bad when your legitimate son dies? Are you so willing to be a caged dog for Guo Wei? If outsiders know, you will probably be recorded by historians as the most useless pseudo-emperor!"
Li Gexiao's sinister words made Hong Xiuquan feel very uncomfortable, but in the face of life and death, he did not dare to act rashly. But after hearing the news about his legitimate son Hong Tianfugui mentioned in Li Ge's joke, Hong Xiuquan couldn't help but ask: "Who are you?
,What happened to Hong Tian Fugui?"
Hai Donglai and Li Gexiao were still afraid that Hong Xiuquan would not ask. Now Hong Xiuquan took the initiative to ask about this matter. They pretended to be indifferent and replied: "I have been under house arrest for a long time and don't know anything? As early as Guo Wei captured the Tianwang Mansion.
From now on, your legitimate son and young king Hong Tianfugui and his clan members Hong Heyuan, Hong Liyuan, Hong Keyuan, Hong Renzheng, Hong Ruiyuan, and Hong Xianyuan were all secretly executed by Guo Wei. Now their bones are probably being bitten by wild dogs in the countryside.
Eat it!"
Hearing this, Hong Xiuquan's eyes widened in shock. His face was pale and he looked at Hai Donglai and Li Ge in disbelief. He stretched out his hand tremblingly, pointed at them, and then said incoherently: "You
...How do you prove it? You must have lied to me, right? Hong Tianfugui couldn't have been killed, you must have...wanted to lie to me!"
Having expected that Hong Xiuquan would say this, Li Gexiao and Hai Donglai were already prepared. They took out a blood-stained jade plaque and a blood-stained gold ring from their arms and handed them to
Hong Xiuquan then looked at Hong Xiuquan meaningfully.
"This...is this?"
Hong Xiuquan's eyes widened in surprise when he saw the object handed over by Hai Donglai and the others. He held the jade plaque tremblingly, turned it over and over and looked at it carefully, and then picked up the ring and observed it again and again.
This jade plaque was a gift given by Hong Xiuquan to his legitimate son Hong Tianfugui in the early years. Hong Tianfugui particularly liked this jade plaque and kept it with him!
And that gold ring is a token that symbolizes the identity of the young king Hong Tianfu. Normally, he would never be able to take it off easily, unless he suffered some disaster and was taken off by someone...
"Hong Xiuquan, this jade medal was obtained from the arms of Hong Tian Fugui's corpse, and the ring was unscrewed from his cold and stiff thumb. As for the cause of his death, we have just said it, you can choose to believe it,
You can also choose not to believe it!”
The words spoken by Li Gexiao and Hai Donglai were like the biting cold wind in the cold winter, making Hong Xiuquan feel chilled from head to toe.
"Hong Tian Fugui... was he really killed by Guo Wei? Don't lie to me. I, Hong Xiuquan, have nothing left and am of no value to you. What is your intention in telling me this news?"
Seeing that Hong Xiuquan was so knowledgeable, Li Gexiao and Hai Donglai did not mince words and directly told him all the information about Guo Wei's murder of Hong Tianfugui and the Hong Xiuquan clan, and then explained the purpose of their trip!
