Chapter 77 The Disraeli Story

Buckinghamshire, Hurndon Manor.

"Jingle Bell,"

The phone rang like a siren, breaking the silence in the air.

"Hi, I'm Disraeli."

The old man stretched out his hand, took the phone, and after a few simple hums, he hung up the phone.

Then, a look of relief, melancholy and even loneliness appeared on his face.

"Did you not get the desired result?" Di Renjie asked curiously.

"No, I received the expected results, but I don't know why, but I'm not very happy." Disraeli sighed and said slowly.

"Perhaps it's because you don't really approve of what you're doing?"

"It's part of the reason. Forget it. I don't want to talk about it. At least from the results, this matter should bring many benefits to the empire." Disraeli showed a somewhat complicated smile.

"Can you tell us what happened?" Sherlock eagerly asked, he wanted to know whether the final result was consistent with his and Di Renjie's deduction.

"Of course," Disraeli said frankly, "Let me think about it, where should I start? By the way, you have all stepped into the extraordinary world, so you should all know something about the Way of the Gate of Ten Thousand Gates." Do you understand?"

"Of course," they both said in unison.

"The Way of the Gate of Ten Thousand Gates is extremely special. Not only does this way fail to bring about changes in the nature of life, but its high-level transcendents are even more fragile compared to other ways, except for a few transcendents who cultivate the image of a 'knight' Well, almost all transcendents of the Way of the Gate of Ten Thousand Gates, even if they reach the fourth level, their physical bodies are weak compared to mundane weapons such as knives, guns and bullets.

"Emperors, kings, presidents, and prime ministers of various countries are mostly transcendents of the Way of the Gate of Ten Thousand Gates, and among them, even the most powerful emperors are only fourth-level transcendents. basis of the entire plan."

Disraeli took a sip of tea and continued:
"Of course, the foundation is just the foundation, it has existed since ancient times; and if you want to do something unusual on this foundation, you need an opportunity.

"Coincidentally, this opportunity appeared three months ago.

"At that time, my intelligence personnel accidentally received a letter from the upper echelons of the Russian Empire, who claimed to be 'Peter' and claimed that he could provide the daily whereabouts of Tsar Alexander II.

"My people didn't believe it at first, but the letter was stamped with the seal of the Privy Council of the Russian Empire, which was extremely realistic, so with a skeptical attitude, I asked my subordinates to contact the other party tentatively.

"The person named Peter was very sincere. After discovering our concerns, he provided us with several highly confidential itineraries of Alexander II. After confirmation, these itineraries were true and correct, which made us trust them. A certain amount of trust is built.

"So we planned to carry out further cooperation, but because the previous correspondence was too close, the secret contact was eventually targeted by the secret agents of the Secret Service of the Russian Ministry of Internal Affairs.

"Poor Darkley," Disraeli said, closing his eyes sadly.

"Duckley is your man?" Di Renjie and Sherlock looked at Disraeli in shock: "So that secret letter was actually addressed to you? But why is it titled 'Prime Minister'? You have resigned?" "

"The current Prime Minister is indeed Gladstone," Disraeli said calmly, "but don't forget, before me, the Prime Minister was just an unofficial title, until I signed it in the name of the Prime Minister at the Berlin Conference. Agreement, this name has been recognized domestically and internationally in a true sense.

"So there's nothing wrong with referring to me as the prime minister."

"In the end, you not only made Gladstone take the blame for this incident, but even made him willingly make concessions with you..." Di Renjie said with emotion, silently feeling sorry for Mr. Gladstone for three seconds.

"He was indeed kept in the dark at the beginning, but he still guessed a little bit later, but at that time, he had no better way than to push the boat along the way. After all, the final benefit of this matter will still fall on this year. On to the cabinet."

Disraeli said a little happily. Obviously, even at this time, he is still very happy to make Gladstone, an old opponent, suffer a little:

"Let's get back to the topic. The accidental death of Duckley disrupted my layout. Fortunately, with the help of Mr. Gladstone, everyone's attention was attracted by the case of the Prime Minister's collusion with Russia. In exchange for me and The cooperation of the Conservative Party, who came to the door himself, provided us with assistance from SIS, a very good agent called Mansfield Smith.

"It is impossible for the empire to directly participate in the assassination of the leaders of other countries. This is a violation of the rules, but if the method is more subtle, so that no one can find any traces, then it is actually not impossible to try. Under such thoughts, I suddenly thought of Your Majesty's Crown, hehe, courage is a good thing, especially if used in the right place.

"So on the one hand, we continued to maintain contact with 'Peter'; on the other hand, we secretly searched for extremists in Russia and planned to use their hands to complete our plan. Thanks to Alexander II's reforms, some in Russia wanted to assassinate him people, so we did not spend much effort to find a potential partner - the Narodnaya Volya, but we did not contact them directly, which is easy to expose, we just provide some convenience when they need it."

"And after that, you just need to use one case to make the crown disappear in London in a legitimate way, and then let the people who have already prepared take the crown to St. Petersburg..." Sherlock rubbed his chin and thought.

"At the same time, you are making a big noise internationally. Not only do you pretend that the government is looking for the crown with great fanfare, but you also subtly guide conflicts among countries and create topics to attract the attention of all countries, so as to achieve the goal of fishing in troubled waters." Di Renjie concluded.

"That's right, that's it. In the end, we only need to wait a few months. After everything is calm, we announce that our people have successfully regained the crown, and the story will come to a successful conclusion." Disraeli revealed a A relieved smile:

"This is the truth behind all the turmoil in the past two months."
