Chapter 289 Arrival in Guangzhou

Guangzhou, the chief rudder of the Tiandihui.

Tiandihui has always been mysterious and its whereabouts are difficult to find. Bai Gui was able to find Chen Qiankun. After going through nine twists and turns and going around many places, he finally met Chen Qiankun, the chief helmsman of Tiandihui. However, he still did not know about Chen Qiankun. Where is it hidden?

In the city, there is an unknown courtyard.

In the study.

A middle-aged man in brown robes, about forty years old, is sitting on top. This middle-aged man has a Chinese character face, a white face and a long beard, his eyebrows are like two swords flying together, his eyes are shining, and his nose is as straight as a mountain. , his lips were pursed, his expression was serious, exuding the majesty of a superior.

Especially those eyes, when they flicker, there is a cold and stern light, which makes people feel cold all over. This person is Chen Qiankun, the chief helmsman of the Tiandihui.

There was a man and a woman standing in the study, the man was handsome and the woman was pretty.

These two people were clearly Wang Rui and Fang Su.

When Wang Rui and Fang Su failed to assassinate Li Zhen, Wang Rui escaped from Li Zhen's military camp and headed south. After Fang Su left, he quickly found Wang Rui with the help of the Tiandihui network. After the two met, , Wang Rui was naturally happy in his heart, with a kind of joy of regaining what was lost.

Wang Rui still had some doubts in his heart. How could Fang Su suddenly appear in front of his eyes after he was obviously caught? However, Wang Rui looked at Fang Su and found that Fang Su was still a virgin and was not affected.

This situation confused Wang Rui.

However, Wang Rui still asked about Fang Su's situation.

When it came to privacy, Fang Su did not tell the truth and hid everything about how Li Zhen treated her injuries. She evaded the important point and said that Li Zhen did not intend to deal with Tiandihui, and that Li Zhen would also visit Chen Qiankun after arriving in Guangzhou. There were loopholes in his words. There were many, but Wang Rui just believed Fang Su's words.

Wang Rui also wanted to assassinate Li Zhen, but Fang Su did not allow it.

In the end, Wang Rui could not overcome Fang Su's stubborn temper, and finally returned to Guangzhou with Fang Su.

Chen Qiankun looked at Wang Rui and Fang Su and said in a deep voice: "I already understand what Su'er said just now. Li Zhen is very ambitious and is not someone who is subordinate to others. Such people are not easy to deal with. Since you Now that you are back, don't take action against Li Zhen again, especially since Li Zhen is leading his army south. If you are prepared, you will not be able to succeed."

Wang Rui thought for a while and said, "Master, what should we do now?"

Chen Qiankun raised the corner of his mouth and said, "Let Bai Gui and Li Zhen fight, and we'll just sit back and watch."

Wang Rui was reluctant and said: "Master, you don't really want to see Li Zhen, do you?"

Deep down, Wang Rui extremely rejected Li Zhen.

The reason is naturally because of the flowery and jade-like Fang Su next to it.

With a confident and calm smile on his face, Chen Qiankun said in a deep voice: "Bai Gui is a wolf cub who wants to pounce on meat when he sees it, but Li Zhen is a tiger that goes down the mountain. Bai Gui has the support of foreigners, and Li Zhen has the strength They are strong, one is the governor of Guangdong, and the other is the admiral. They are very close to each other. I will wait for them to fight, and I will help whoever is weak, let them fight to the maximum extent, and develop the strength of the Tiandihui."

At this time, Chen Qiankun showed a scheming smile.

What he wants to do is to make a profit as a fisherman.



Governor's Yamen, in the study.

An old man over fifty years old was wearing black clothes and a small round hat. His fat body was squeezed into the chair, making the chair creak, as if he could no longer bear the pressure of the old man.

This old man is Bai Gui, the governor of Guangdong.

At this moment, Bai Gui's face was gloomy, and his sinister eyes flashed with a cold look.

"Asshole, Chen Qiankun is a loser. He sent someone to assassinate Li Zhen but failed. He is a fool."

Bai Gui had received the news that Li Zhen had gone south safely, and he was very angry. However, Bai Gui also knew that there was nothing he could do to stop Chen Qiankun, especially since Chen Qiankun came and went without a trace, making it difficult to trace the traces. If Chen Qiankun was forced into a hurry, , he will also suffer crazy revenge from Chen Qiankun, and he will not even be able to sleep well, so he can only talk about it.

"Futai, there is no need for you to be angry."

Below, a middle-aged man in his forties spoke. This middle-aged man was Bai Gui's staff.

Bai Gui immediately asked: "What do you think?"

The staff smiled and said: "The city of Guangzhou is now controlled by foreigners and is guarded by foreigners. It can be said to be impregnable. If Li Zhen wants to conquer Guangzhou, he must fight the foreigners. The foreigners have powerful weapons and are well-trained. Even if Li Zhen defeats the foreigners, he will definitely lose his troops." , Or, if Li Zhen is defeated by the foreigners, he will definitely be disgraced. No matter whether he wins or loses, you will be in an invincible position, just sit back and watch the show."

Bai Gui nodded slightly, with a look of expectation on his face.

Immediately, Bai Gui ordered: "Immediately pass the news of Li Zhennan to the foreigners, tell Burlong, Bao Ling and others to let them know."

"yes."

The staff bowed in agreement, turned and left.



Outside the Governor's Yamen, there were soldiers from the British and French allied forces standing outside.

After Bourlon and Bao Ling led the army to invade Guangzhou, they occupied Guangzhou and surrounded the Governor's Mansion. Baigui chose to cooperate with the British and French forces and became a puppet of the British and French forces. However, Ye Mingchen preferred death to surrender and was imprisoned in the Governor's Mansion. .

In the backyard, Ye Mingchen was wearing a single coat and sitting in the yard.

Ye Mingchen is also an old man. His health is not good. Now he has suffered a catastrophe and is even more haggard and exhausted. Especially when Bai Gui and the businessmen in the city have defected to foreigners, Ye Mingchen is still clinging to death. Persistence makes life even more difficult.

However, Ye Mingchen didn't know how long he could hold on. He stayed in the yard every day, and every day seemed like a year, and he was extremely uncomfortable.

"Sir, it's a good thing, a good thing."

Suddenly, a soldier rushed in like a whirlwind.

This soldier is Ye Mingchen's bodyguard.

Ye Mingchen looked at the guard and suddenly felt happy in his heart, because the only thing worth being happy about now was that Li Zhen led the troops to rescue him. Before the guard could speak, Ye Mingchen said: "Is it Li Zhen who has arrived, or has Li Zhen already led his troops?" The city is under siege.”

The information the guards sought was from the servants who delivered food to the Governor's Yamen. The information was limited, but it was clear enough.

The guard said: "Li Zhen has led the army to the outside of the city and will attack the city soon. The foreigners in the city have been defeated by Li Zhen many times. Now that they encounter Li Zhen attacking the city, they will definitely be scared to death. Sir, you will be attacked soon." We will get out of trouble, and your Excellency will still be the Governor of Guangdong and Guangxi at that time. As for Bai Gui, the governor of Guangzhou who took refuge with the foreigners, I am afraid he will have to deal with it."

"Bai Gui."

A cold look flashed in Ye Mingchen's eyes, and he said in a deep voice: "Bai Gui is a typical wallflower. I'm waiting for him to come over and see how he admits his mistake."
