Chapter 1218 Casting a big net to catch fish

Zhang Zhiping's rude appearance made Li Leng stunned for a moment, thinking that something big must have happened. Zhang Zhiping saluted respectfully, sat down, and said with shame: "President, Zhang Zhiping is guilty, please punish him."

Li Zhen asked confusedly: "What crime do you have?"

He was confused and didn't understand why.

Zhang Zhiping took a deep breath and said seriously: "I just got the news that Ye Mingchen, Weng Tonghe and other officials have become the emperor's people. They gathered in Nanjing with the intention of murdering the president. In fact, Ye Mingchen and Weng Tonghe have already aimed to leave early tomorrow morning. train, preparing to use explosives and artillery shells to blow up the train and murder the president. Such a big thing happened under the rule of Nanjing, and I only got the news now. It was my dereliction of duty, and I ask the president to punish me."

"hiss,."

Li Zhen took a breath and shuddered.

Ye Mingchen and Weng Tonghe figured out his whereabouts and sent people to bomb the train. The results are self-evident.

Liu Jintang frowned and said: "President, I feel that Ye Mingchen and Weng Tonghe are not good people."

Huang Qiang narrowed his eyes slightly and said with murderous intent: "President, I immediately led people to arrest Ye Mingchen and Weng Tonghe, and they must have other accomplices, so I also arrested them."

Li Zhen shook his head, looked at Zhang Zhiping, and asked: "Mayor Zhang, are you sure Ye Mingchen wants to murder me?"

"It's absolutely true. I don't dare to lie about this."

Zhang Zhiping looked serious and spoke firmly. He was angry that Ye Mingchen and Weng Tonghe were causing trouble under his nose, but he was frightened that if Li Zhen was injured or had an accident, the consequences would be disastrous.

Fortunately, he had the evidence.

In fact, Zhang Zhiping discovered that Ye Mingchen was planning to murder Li Zhen by chance. During the day, Ye Mingchen stole the limelight several times and stole Zhang Zhiping's opportunity to perform in front of Li Zhen. Therefore, after Zhang Zhiping and Li Zhen separated, he sent people to investigate Ye Mingchen and prepared to give Ye Mingchen a severe punishment. I learned a lesson, but I didn’t expect that this investigation would lead to the withdrawal of Ye Mingchen’s murder of Li Zhen.

As soon as this happened, Zhang Zhiping was so frightened that he broke into a cold sweat.

Zhang Zhiping continued: "Ye Mingchen's crime of murdering the president cannot be forgiven. Even cutting him into pieces cannot wash away his sins. Please order the president and I will send people to arrest Ye Mingchen immediately."

Li Zhen shook his head and said, "No, there's no rush."

"Why."

Zhang Zhiping, Liu Jintang and Huang Qiang answered in unison.

Li Zhen's eyes flashed with a cold and stern light, and he said solemnly: "Since Ye Mingchen and Weng Tonghe are organized and planned, then why don't we come up with a plan to match their plan? I believe that it is not just Ye Mingchen and Weng Tonghe in Nanjing who have plans. There are also officials from Beijing involved, and it seems that the two queen mothers are unwilling to be left alone."

Huang Qiang immediately said: "Since it is related to the two empress dowagers, I will arrest the two empress dowagers directly."

Liu Jintang said worriedly: "If you use the plan to your advantage, it will easily expand the impact and cause turmoil."

Li Zhen's expression became more serious, and he said almost coldly: "The result I want is to expand my influence and catch all the hidden threats. As long as something happens to me suddenly, they will jump out. Only in this way can I catch them all in one go. Over the years, I have been fighting with foreign countries." I have been dealing with people so much that I have neglected domestic affairs. I think the Empress Dowagers of the Two Palaces also started looking for opportunities to win over officials when they saw that I rarely showed up. In order to make the Empress Dowagers of the Two Palaces completely crazy, I must use the trick."

Zhang Zhiping said: "How does the president plan to use his plan?"

Li Zhen replied loudly: "Tomorrow morning, we will board the train as originally planned."

"ah,."

Zhang Zhiping exclaimed, his face turned pale with fright.

"No, no, you must not take risks. If you get on the train, you are putting yourself in danger. When the train is bombed, the situation is unpredictable."

Zhang Zhiping's head shook like a rattle and he refused directly.

Liu Jintang's eyes rolled, and he glanced at Li Zhen, who looked like he was grasping the pearls of wisdom. After thinking for a moment, he said with a smile: "Mayor Zhang, don't worry, the president will not personally take risks. The so-called original plan is The train is for Ye Mingchen and Weng Tonghe to see, so that Ye Mingchen can jump out on his own initiative. A person as powerful as the President will not put himself in the tiger's mouth."

"Really."

Zhang Zhiping was concerned about chaos and was very worried about Li Zhen's safety.

Nothing can happen under his jurisdiction.

Li Zhen nodded and said: "Liu Jintang is right, he just confused Ye Mingchen and the two empress dowagers."

Zhang Zhiping breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Please tell me everything. It scared me to death."

Li Zhen laughed and said: "Tomorrow morning, Zhang Zhiping, you first send your trusted soldiers to take control of the train station to ensure that there are no people from Ye Mingchen and Weng Tonghe around the train station. At that time, I will take everyone to the train station and pretend to get on the train. , let the train continue to leave, but our group stayed in Nanjing temporarily, waiting for Ye Mingchen and others to take action."

"OK."

Zhang Zhiping laughed, filled with anticipation.

Li Zhen changed the subject and ordered: "In addition to Nanjing knowing the news, they must immediately send a telegram to Zeng Guofan, Shi Dakai, Zhao Liewen, and Huang Shihai in Beijing, asking Zeng Guofan to deal with the empress dowagers of the two palaces and the officials involved in the matter in Beijing, and try their best to Spread the fishing net wider and catch everyone related to the two empress dowagers."

"Okay, I'll inform you immediately."

Zhang Zhiping turned around and left, directly asking the telegraph operator to send the message.



It's already late at night in Beijing.

After the telegram from Nanjing came, the telegraph operator was shocked when he saw the news. The empress dowagers of the two palaces actually wanted to murder the president. This was simply unforgivable. The telegraph operator quickly rushed to the official residence where the prime minister lived. Sure enough, he saw Zeng Ye during the night. , and then reported the news. After Zeng Guofan read the news, his expression became cold and solemn.

The Queen Mother of the Two Palaces has not done much in recent years, but she still refuses to be lonely.

"Sending a report to the President means that I have received the news and will act according to the President's plan."

Zeng Guofan asked the telegraph operator to reply, and asked Shi Dakai, Zhao Liewen and Huang Shihai to be sent overnight.

Several giants in Beijing gathered together, and after Zeng Guofan told the news, the faces of the three of them were filled with murderous intent. Shi Dakai himself was a decisive and decisive person, not a weak scholar. He heard that the empress dowagers of the two palaces were in danger. Li Zhen said with murderous intent: "We must capture all the officials related to the Queen Mother of the two palaces, and then leave no one behind."

Huang Shihai himself was a warrior. Even though he had cultivated his moral character over the years, he still had a fiery temper. He said loudly: "With my First Army stationed in Beijing, the overall situation will not be chaotic. I immediately put the soldiers on alert, and then quietly sent people to control the Queen Mother and the Empress Dowager of the two palaces. Where the little emperor lives, with just one order, the two empress dowagers will be captured immediately."

Zhao Liewen said: "Capturing officials who have connections with the two empress dowagers is what I am best at."

Several giants got together and discussed strategies to deal with the two empress dowagers.
