Hidden Dragon in Qing Dynasty

"Treasury!" There was actually an entire vault here! Hide in this place? " belle Chen grabbed a handful of silver coins, his eyes filled with greed.

'This box must have at least forty to fifty thousand silver coins in it... ' "Yes, do you think so?"

"Hahaha …" "Count all the boxes. Open them and see what's inside besides the silver coins."

The entrance of the octagonal glass well's treasure cave was very small, it could only fit one person at a time. As more and more people came in, the cave became increasingly narrow.

belle counted down one by one until he eventually found a man with blood dripping from his shoulder in a corner. An officer was pointing a gun at that man's head.

The injured person sat on the floor with his back leaning against the wall, staring unblinkingly at Zai Cheng!

"Hmm? Ouch … Ouch … Who was this? Hahaha … "Who is this!?" Zai Cheng was immediately excited, he knew the injured person!

"Isn't this Eunuch Man Shun? Greetings to Chief Steward! What a coincidence! "Why are you hiding here?"

There was nothing strange about the fact that the person inside the treasure cave was actually Man Shun, because the tranquilizer and the octagonal glass well s inside the treasure cave were all created by Zai Cheng according to his orders!

Ever since the Tongzhi Emperor left the Forbidden City to travel with Xiao Letian, he was no longer the former ignorant man!

Xiao Letian's attitude towards this disciple was very subtle. Other than the core military policy of the Chinese army, he had taught Zai Chun selflessly how to govern a country, govern an army, and even amass wealth and intelligence.

Therefore, Zai Chun had understood long ago that the rigid imperial government did not seem to be united. Any organization was made up of many forces, just like a jigsaw puzzle!

This was completely unavoidable. This was human nature. After all, as long as there were more than three of them, they would be divided into left and right. It was very difficult for humans to unify their values to the same level!

Since it was a court formed by multiple powers, there had to be internal strife. And the essence of the struggle was merely a confrontation between the three elements: people, money, and things!

All the forces would put their own talents, money, and the resources they could control!

Among them, money was very, very important. If one didn't have money, they wouldn't gather troops. If one didn't have money, then they wouldn't gather people!

Zai Chun had understood this logic long ago, when Xiao Letian led his troops to attack Fu Sang Japan, when the Fu Sang Bank was filled with Zai Chun's shares, Tongzhi had already begun to quietly prepare his own secret forces in the capital!

A group of carefully chosen eunuchs and secret disciples of the eight flags received the secret decree from the emperor and began their initial construction!

It was not that Zai Chun did not believe that the Department of Revenue had Ministry of Internal Affairs s, he did not believe that those old cunning foxes who were older than him and had trained in the imperial government for many years!

He was even more cautious than Ci Xi, his own Mother. Zai Chun had more than just established a treasury like the octagonal glass well!

Zai Chun had four eunuchs under his command, all of them had miraculous uses!

Hairy # 2 was the leader of the group. He was mainly responsible for the foreign affairs movement beside Tongzhi and the diplomatic relations with the Chinese people.

Da Sixi was ranked second, and was mainly in control of the rules of the Inside Eight Flags. After all, Zai Chun couldn't remember so many people and things by himself!

Xiao Sixi was mainly responsible for the emperor's daily life, especially the matters of the couple's beds, there was nothing to hide, since the ancient emperor also needed to be educated in this area, the son was very important!

And Man Shun was ranked fourth, what was his mission?

It was a treasure! In other words, money and so on, Man Shun not only knew how to appraise antiques, he also knew how to finance himself! The treasures and money were all thought out. Man Shun's most important task was to help the emperor manage the little treasury.

Unfortunately, she never would have thought that not long after they met, Man Shun's secret identity was exposed!

Man Shun looked at Zai Cheng and knew that today's matter would be very difficult to resolve. You planted a spy next to the emperor? What guts! "

"Ai …" You better not accuse people wrongly! "I don't dare to do such an outrageous thing. Today, someone is the main informer …"

"Hehe …" Some people say that someone in the palace is secretly selling the treasures in the imperial palace for personal gain! "

"Someone even dared to steal the treasures in this Forbidden City? What guts! Today, Uncle Wang went to the palace to hold a meeting … "As a nephew, I should at least share my worries with uncle …"

"No, no, no …" Not only will I share the worries of the Uncle Wang, I will also share the worries of my Big Brother Emperor! "

"Sure enough, we've caught a big bag of scumbags!"

belle Chen took out a brocade case from the shelf, opened it and laughed. "Tsk tsk …" "What a big piece of Tian Huang Stone, how can this not be more than two to three taels?"

"Man Shun, oh Man Shun! How dare you, you dare to steal such a treasure! "

Man Shun's shoulder was shot, it was so painful his expression became distorted. He covered his wound with his hand and said. Even if I'm guilty... has to judge! "

"I want to see His Majesty! I want to see His Majesty … "

"Just drop it. Even if you want to see His Majesty, you'll have to wait until you pour out all the dirty water in your stomach! Someone … Just call me right here! "

"Carry out the silver and interrogate me at the same time!" "Take out all the secrets in his stomach for me …"

Man Shun was tied to a wooden rack, all of the treasures around him had been cleaned up, the cold water on the leather whip made him scream out loud!

belle Chen crawled out from the hole in the ground. At this time, the people kneeling around the octagonal glass well were all residents.

"We can't let a single one escape. This underground cave only has this one entrance, it's impossible for Man Shun and the others to not know of it when they go in and out … These are all accomplices! "

"Call me!" Fight to the death! I want to know how many more of these hidden treasure points there are! "

The surrounding area of the octagonal glass well had become hell on earth. At this moment, other than a hundred soldiers, there were more than two hundred soldiers coming over to support them.

When Zai Cheng walked in, he saw the two corpses on the ground. How did he die … I haven't even interrogated him about the secret, how did he die? "

Old Eunuch Wang Zhong laughed and knelt on the ground "Master Belle... "This old servant was careless for a moment and allowed these two fellows to commit suicide. This is truly a sin …"

"However, the emperor is still quite intelligent. It's impossible for such an outsider to know all the secrets. I'm afraid even if you interrogate him, you won't be able to find a new treasure cave like this …"

"Pa …" A loud slap landed on Old Eunuch Wang Zhong's face, "You dog slave, you don't understand anything! "Do you know who is hiding in the well?"

"It's Man Shun! It's Man Shun from the four eunuchs who went abroad with Zai Chun! "

"This Sun Xiaogou can actually guard the door for Man Shun, what secret do you think he doesn't know? I think you old brat have a bit of ulterior motives! "

"No!" Master Belle, spare me! This old servant truly doesn't have a second heart … Otherwise, the heavens will kill the earth! "

"Don't worry, Master Belle, leave Man Shun's interrogation to me … I promise I'll get the secret out of him... "

"Good!" I'll give you one hour! If you can't get anything out of them, you can go and die with them! "

Wang Zhong ran to the entrance of the well as if he was extremely scared. He pointed at the soldiers beside him and shouted, "Is there anyone that wants to interrogate me this way? Can't you think of any other unique skill other than the whip? "

"Searing iron! Nail fingers! Cover your face with brown paper... "Give me a knife and dig into his ribs!"

"Humans are bitter insects, it's impossible not to fight! If you don't hit him, you won't speak! "
