    Zaifeng did not comment on Zaitao's proposal. He was silent for a long time before sighing: "This is really 'the Duke of Zhou is afraid of the day of rumors, but Wang Mang is humble and does not usurp the time'!"

    Na Tong and Xu Shichang naturally understood the meaning of Zaifeng¡¯s words:

    There is no doubt that "Zhou Gong" refers to Yuan Shikai.  During the reigns of Guangxu and Xuantong, the imperial court was suspicious of Yuan Shikai in every possible way, seizing power and dismissing him, causing disaster to those close to the party, and even wanted to get rid of him and then quickly.  Fortunately, many people in the court helped him intercede, and he was able to escape unscathed.  After the rebellion broke out in Wuchang, he quickly led his troops to Hubei to quell the rebellion, regardless of the gains and losses of his previous grievances. He also received good news frequently, killing 1,800 people today and 2,000 tomorrow.  ¡ª¡ªAccording to the figures in the battle report, the entire Hubei New Army was shot in turns at least five times.  ¡ª¡ªBut one thing is very certain, that is, the rebels were indeed driven south of the Yangtze River!  He is so loyal to the country and does not care about grudges. Is he not the Duke of Zhou or what?

    In comparison, "Wang Mang" is none other than Sun Yuanqi.  Before his misfortunes, Sun Yuanqi was just like Wang Mang. He was aloof and unobtrusive, kept pure, was humble, courteous to virtuous people, and had profound knowledge. He was a moral model for students all over the world and was deeply loved by both the government and the public.  It was such a person who turned against the imperial court in an unbelievable way.

    Zai Tao has looked down on the generous and easy-going Zai Feng since he was a child. He can't understand why the wise Empress Dowager of the West finally handed over the power of regent and supervisor to Zai Feng, a wimp. She simply regarded the survival of the Qing Dynasty as child's play.  Seeing that Zaifeng was still shaking his head and dropping his book bag at this time, he frowned and said: "Fifth brother, please stop dragging the article, and you'd better come up with an idea quickly!"

    Zaifeng smiled helplessly and asked Na Tong and Xu Shichang: "I wonder what you two have in mind?"

    Xu Shichang replied: "Your Majesty, Shaanxi is approaching Henan, and Shanxi is approaching the capital. Henan is the hinterland of the Central Plains, and the capital is the foundation of the Qing Dynasty. There is no room for loss in both places. In my humble opinion, for the current plan, the armed guards in Henan should be mobilized quickly.  Go west and block Tongguan to prevent the rebels from entering Henan; in addition, order the Army's Sixth Town stationed in Zhengding to move to Shijiazhuang and seize Niangziguan along the Zhengtai Line to prevent the rebels from disturbing Jifu and shaking the world. What to do in the future will have to wait for military consultation  A decision can only be made after discussions between the government and cabinet.¡±

    Zaifeng was like a rolling pin blowing fire to the military - he knew nothing about it, and he could only nod his head after hearing Xu Shichang's suggestions.  Zai Tao said angrily: "Master Xu, now that King Qing has dissolved the cabinet, how long will it take for the cabinet to make a decision?"

    Xu Shichang was stunned for a moment and then said: "Tao Beile, Prince Qing is mature and prudent. He is a close relative of the clan and the elder of the country, and is respected all over the world. What he said just now was just a momentary anger, and he can't mean it. After a few days, Prince Qing's anger subsides, and he will find someone else.  If you give me some advice, it should be fine."

    "Now that the situation in the world is as urgent as a spark, how can he make everyone in the court wait for him? If there is no butcher Zhang, we will have to eat pigs with hair on them?" Zai Tao said very rudely.

    Na Tong couldn¡¯t sit still any longer and quickly stood up to say goodbye, unable to hold him back.  The Prime Minister and Associate Ministers of the Cabinet have left one after another. Can Xu Shichang still stay?  After a while, only brothers Zaifeng and Zaitao were left in the living room.  Zaifeng couldn't help complaining: "Seventh brother, how can you talk nonsense?"

    Zai Tao said: "Why am I talking nonsense? You didn't see the face of King Qing, as if Sun Yuanqi was his ancestor, and he protected him everywhere. How much money do you think Sun Yuanqi had to give to King Qing to make him ignorant?  What did your conscience say? The Qing Dynasty has been ruined in the hands of these people, so scolding him is still a light thing. According to my temperament, I should just raid his home and have him excommunicated!"

    Zaifeng's face was full of worry: "Although King Qing is greedy, he is still very political after all. Many affairs in the court need his intervention. Now that you are making such a fuss, if the news reaches King Qing's ears, he will still come out to do things.  What?"

    "What are you afraid of! It's hard to find a two-legged toad, and it's not easy to find a two-legged living person? Let alone being the prime minister of the cabinet?" Zai Tao didn't care at all, "If it doesn't work out, I'm willing to take the initiative.  Please come and take on this important responsibility for the Qing Dynasty!"

    "How dare I work for you? I think it's better to forget it!" Of course Zaifeng knew what kind of person Zai Tao was, and immediately rejected his kindness. "Tomorrow morning, I'd better go to persuade King Qing to let him  Take back the order. If it doesn't work out, I'm afraid I have to ask Yuan Weiting to come forward to form a cabinet."

    "Let Yuan Si form a pavilion?" Zai Tao screamed like a cat whose tail was stepped on, "Lao Wu, have you forgotten the last words of the second brother before his death? Do you think the world is not chaotic enough?"

    Zaifeng stood up and said, "Seventh brother, it's getting late. I have to discuss with my sixth brother the deployment of troops in Henan and Zhili, so I won't leave you for supper." After that, he turned to the back hall, leaving only the downloader.  Tao was dancing alone in the living room.

    Let¡¯s talk about Xu Shichang??'s old troops are loyal to Mr. Sun. If he wants to occupy the land and become king, he must first clear away the threats around Shanxi and those of us who have different paths and do not work together.  If we want to retain our troops, we must stay away from Taiyuan and withdraw from Shanxi as soon as possible.

    "If we go west to join Zhao Xietong, Senior Brother Yan covets our soldiers and equipment and will definitely obstruct us in every possible way. If necessary, he will even lend us two heads. But what if we take the initiative to lead the army east? Not only can we help him  Temporarily withstanding the threat from the east, and also being able to get rid of us with the help of the Qing troops, it can be said that it kills two birds with one stone. Why wouldn't he do it? So he will definitely agree.

    "Brother Huchen's move not only brought out most of the veterans who were loyal to Lord Sun, but also all the new soldiers were able to follow us eastward, so the strategy was very successful at this point. However, after arriving at Niangzi Pass, the Qing army immediately  It will come rolling in, and once the war starts, our situation will still not be optimistic!"

    Cheng Ziyin looked at Zhang Huizan dumbfounded.

    Zhang Huizhan said proudly: "Brother Huchen, are you right?"

    Cheng Ziyin shook his head fiercely: "That's not what I thought at all!" (To be continued.
