It was naturally impossible for Bai Qi to disobey Qin Hao's order, so he immediately released Chu Ying as soon as he received the summons. However, at this time, Chu Ying was already tortured to death.
The envoy who came to meet Chu Ying this time was Wanyan Sheng, Aguda's fourth brother. After Aguda's death, he inherited his brother's business, broke with the Northern Song Dynasty, launched an invasion of the Northern Song Dynasty, captured Bianjing, and captured Song Huizong and Song Qinzong.
Jin Shizong, father and son, is also one of the hidden figures in the Hundred Calls of the Alien Race.
Wanyan Sheng is one of the few people in the Wanyan family who is trusted by Aguda and knows the entire plan. He clearly understands the significance of this trip to the Wanyan family, so he has always been cautious in his words and deeds and dare not be careless in the slightest.
But when he saw Chu Ying, even though Wanyan Shengcheng was quite wealthy, he couldn't help but change his face.
Is this neither human nor ghost thing really the eldest brother Chu Ying?
In order to save his life, Chu Yingsheng did not hesitate to eat the body of his biological father. However, in his opinion, this was a desperate act because only by surviving could he have a chance to take revenge. At the same time, he hated Qin Hao deeply in his heart.
But what Chu Ying didn't expect was that even if he ate the body of his biological father, Qin Hao would still let him go and subjected him to various tortures in prison. He was tortured to the point of death, which was worse than death.
When Bai Qi took Chu Ying out of the prison, Chu Ying thought he was going to die, and he even felt like he was finally free. Now he was really alive and would be worse off than dead.
But when she saw Wanyan Sheng, Chu Ying's eyes suddenly widened. An idea flashed through her mind, and a glimmer of hope arose in her originally despairing heart.
"Uncle, save me, save me..."
Chu Ying rushed out like a mad dog and pounced directly on Wanyan Sheng, but before she could reach him, the guard grabbed the iron chain and pulled him back forcefully.
"Uncle, I am Chu Ying."
Chu Ying grabbed the bricks on the ground and refused to let go. It seemed that if he let go, his hope of survival would be gone, so that a long blood mark was dragged down.
Wanyan Sheng is Aguda's younger brother and the same generation as Nurhachi, so it is not wrong for Chu Ying to call Wanyan Sheng uncle, but he has never called him that before, and now he just wants to ask for talents.
Seeing this, Bai Qi waved to the guard, who immediately let go of the chain. Chu Ying rushed behind Wanyan Sheng, hugged his thigh and cried, refusing to let go no matter what Wanyan Sheng said.
Seeing that Chu Ying could not be persuaded, Wanyan Sheng had no choice but to let it go and comforted him with kind words: "Don't worry, brother, I am here specifically to rescue you and will never leave you alone."
"uncle."
Chu Ying's eyes filled with excitement, and her nose and tears covered Wanyan Sheng's body, which made Wanyan Sheng, who loves cleanliness, twitch the corners of her mouth.
"Captain Bai, after General Zhang Han was captured, we treated him with courtesy and never humiliated him in the slightest. However, you should humiliate the prince of our country like this. This is unworthy of the dignity of a great country."
Wanyan Sheng asked Bai Qi coldly. As soon as he said the words, Chu Ying behind him tugged on his robe and signaled him to stop talking. Apparently he was afraid of being tortured.
Bai Qi glanced at Zhang Han, who was still bandaged, and found that his injuries were not healed, but he was in good spirits. He really didn't look like he had been tortured, so he raised his hands and said:
"Our country has the spirit of a great nation and generally does not lynch prisoners. However, Chu Ying was really vicious and offered a plan to feed on human flesh, which caused the people of the two counties to suffer. This also made my lord very angry.
It's luck that he survived. If the envoy had come one day later, I might not have been able to see him."
Wanyan Sheng did not want to seek justice for Chu Ying, but he was worried about the situation of Jin Wushu and others after being captured. It would be terrible if they were the same as Chu Ying.
After hearing Bai Qi's words, Wanyan Sheng secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Except for Chu Ying, the Qin army didn't seem to have executed anyone else. That was naturally for the best.
"The green hills remain unchanged and the green waters always flow. Commander Bai, bid farewell."
Wanyan Sheng didn't waste any words. After saying the words, he bowed his hands and turned around to leave with Chu Ying.
Bai Qi looked at Wanyan Sheng's leaving figure, a strange color flashed in his eyes, and asked Zhang Han beside him: "What do you think of this person?"
Zhang Han was silent for a while and then said: "He is deeply scheming, brave and ambitious, and he will definitely become the formidable enemy of our army in time."
"You are wrong, he is our army's best helper."
"??"
Zhang Han looked puzzled.
Bai Qi had no intention of explaining. Zhang Han's current level was still too low, and he would not be able to access secrets of this level for the time being.
Wanyan Sheng was afraid that Bai Qi would regret it, so after leaving Lulongsai with Chu Ying, he returned to western Liaoning without making any stop, as if running for his life. Aguda, Tuoba Tao, Fu Pi and others had been waiting for a long time.
The Fu family was originally loyal to the Xinjieluo faction, but after Fu Jian died in the battle, Aguda took the opportunity to intervene and promised a heavy gift, and then the Fu family was also brought into his alliance.
After washing and dressing up, Chu Ying finally returned to her normal appearance, but she still looked timid, obviously still immersed in the fear of being humiliated.
Seeing this, Wanyan Sheng said, "Your Highness, do you know the current situation in the Qing Dynasty?"
Chu Ying was stunned and didn't understand why Wanyan Sheng told him this, so he shook his head dullly: "I don't know."
"Your Majesty and the Crown Prince have both passed away. Now the only two princes in the Qing Dynasty who are eligible to succeed to the throne are you and Dorgon."
Hearing this, Chu Ying's eyes suddenly widened and his mouth grew big, but he couldn't say a word for a long time, his face was full of shock and disbelief.
After a long time, Chu Ying said in a seductive voice: "So, the emperor's uncles rescued Chu Ying and came back to support Chu Ying's ascension to the throne?"
Wanyan Sheng nodded: "Yes, Dorgon's personal ethics are not good, and he is too low in the ranking, so as the eldest son, His Highness, you should inherit the throne."
Chu Ying's eyes were full of ecstasy, and he nodded continuously: "Yes, Dorgon is nothing. I am the eldest son of Amma. Since Amma and the crown prince are gone, I should succeed him."
.”
A smile appeared on Wanyan Sheng's lips, and he continued to seduce: "But the person who controls Shengjing now is Dorgon, and it is impossible for him to let His Highness succeed you."
Chu Ying was stunned for a moment, then his eyes flashed with madness, and he said ferociously: "That means killing him. The throne belongs to me, Chu Ying, and no one can take it away."
Wanyan Sheng nodded with satisfaction. This Chu Ying is good, stupid enough, and a qualified chess piece. Brother did not choose the wrong person.
The next day, Wanyan Aguda, Tuoba Tao, Fu Pi and other Manchu nobles returned to Shengjing collectively under the pretense that they had brought back the bones of the late emperor, but in reality they were to support Chu Ying and Dorgon in their fight for the throne.
.
Dorgon didn't know that Chu Ying had been welcomed back. In addition, Aguda's banner was to bring back the corpse of the late emperor. If he blocked it, he would be accused of being unfilial, so he naturally did not dare to stop Aguda and others from returning to the capital.
What Dorgon never expected was that when Aguda and other talents returned to Beijing, Chu Ying would appear, and these people seemed to have agreed upon it and collectively supported Chu Ying's ascension to the throne.
Dorgon was weak and unable to stop him, and he was worried about internal strife, so he had no choice but to admit it and let his eldest brother Chu Ying take the throne first.
In this way, under the conspiracy of Qin Hao and Aguda, Chu Ying succeeded Nurhaci and became the second emperor of the Qing Dynasty, and his succession was also the beginning of the complete decline of the Qing Dynasty.
