King Shangtai was very aware of the conflict between Xiang Ying and Zai Chun. Whether they were jealous in front of Cai Bixia or competing for favor in front of the head of state, the relationship between the two was like fire and water, and they started to fight more than once or twice.
On the surface, the conflict between the two seemed childish, but King Shangtai knew very well that the two of them actually wanted to compete for the position of direct heir to the Führer School.
If Xiang Ying secures her position as Xiao Letian's first disciple, she will be able to easily obtain the official position of Prime Minister in the future, and release huge influence within the Chinese nation, and even be able to rule the Chinese nation for decades.
The same Zai Chun also wanted the status of a disciple of this mantle, because his ambition was greater. He hoped that the Manchu and Chinese could integrate to a certain extent, so as to maintain the integrity of the Qing Empire.
Just imagine, the emperor of the Qing Dynasty himself is the successor of Xiao Letian, so his influence on the Chinese people is undoubtedly huge. In a small way, he can obtain countless talents and elites, and in a big way, he owns many Chinese industries. The inheritance rights, for example, the Chinese special zones in the Qing Dynasty may be merged into the rule of the Qing Dynasty.
Anyway, both of them have beautiful ideas, so conflicts arise!
King Shangtai was not destined for this level of competition. His dedication to the government allowed him to escape from that extremely dangerous circle of power. While he was rejoicing, he was also paying attention to the fate of his friend Zai Chun.
Too young, how on earth can a child withstand the bloodshed in this circle? But he never expected that the first knife to stab Zai Chun was already ready in Xiang Ying's hand.
"Xiang Ying! You just said that the master is the softest. Zai Chun has been with the master for a long time, and they have a deep friendship! The master will never hurt Zai Chun!"
"It's one thing to destroy the Qing Dynasty, but you can't hurt Zai Chun! I, my senior brother, beg you, okay? If you really do it, the master will be sad!"
Xiang Ying smiled, but in the eyes of King Shang Tai, the smile was really fake and very forced. "How could it be possible? You think of me as too insidious. Our purpose is just to overthrow the Qing Dynasty. Of course I don't want that." Zai Chun died..."
"What's more, do you think if I kill Zai Chun... master, will he let me go?"
This rhetorical question made King Shangtai stunned. If he thought about it carefully, it was really like this. Even if Xiang Ying was a monkey, there was no way he could escape from the hands of the head of state. As for Xiao Letian's attitude towards Zai Chun...
"Yes! I believe that the head of state only wants to overthrow the Qing Dynasty... He will not kill Zai Chun!" King Shangtai murmured to himself.
"Yes, yes... you are right. The head of state will definitely not harm Zai Chun. Even if the Qing Dynasty is overthrown, the head of state will rescue Zai Chun back to his side as soon as possible... There is no such thing in the Hidden Dragon Plan. I’m just short of a pair of bowls and chopsticks!”
Xiang Ying was like a tempting devil, following King Shang Tai's words and letting go of his guard little by little.
"Let's not talk about Zai Chun's problem for now. Don't worry, I won't harm Zai Chun's life, because all we Chinese want is the country of the Qing Dynasty. Why would we want his life? Am I a pervert, right... …Let’s continue the topic we just talked about! Do you know what the ultimate secret plan of the Qing Dynasty is?”
"Hehehe... The centipede insects are dead but not stiff. If you want the Qing Dynasty to die quickly, you must first let them kill them from within!"
"Don't try to attack the Qing Dynasty from the outside, because as I just said, if we launch a war directly, the solution will definitely be the collapse of China's territory and massive interference from Western forces!"
"How to avoid this situation? There is only one way, which is to let the Eight Banners kill the Eight Banners and let the Manchus kill the Manchus!"
The murderous words made the temperature of the entire secret room drop. King Shang Tai stared at Xiang Ying as if he didn't know him.
"What is the basis of the Manchu Qing's current governance? First, two hundred years of enslavement rule has given the people a very strong habit, or dependence. For example, that braid is not cut off every day at the West Water Gate in Tanggu because it is unwilling to cut it. How many refugees have been expelled because of their braids? Countless..."
"It can be seen that people are creatures who only follow habits. Even if the habits are evil, they refuse to change...Binding their feet, smoking big cigarettes, growing pigtails, and an inertial dependence on the Manchus, these are all We must eradicate this cancer!”
"For this kind of people who refuse to change, all we have to do is... to induce the cancer of the Manchu Qing Dynasty to burst from within! One of the most effective ways is civil war!"
"Civil war! It's right, it's civil war..." Xiang Ying rubbed his palms and his eyes shone with excitement, "Nothing can break people's hearts more than the civil war between the Manchus. Zai Chun, a little careerist, has a big desire for power, plus he has a lot of money in his hands. Soldiers, there are Yulin New Army in Fujian, and there are elites from Hunchun and other provinces outside the Pass..."
"In addition, he is about to visit Europe and will surely receive help from many foreigners. How can the tough-minded Zai Chun be willing to be a monarch who rules by doing nothing?"
"He will definitely carry out strong reforms, because he has seen the powerful world outside with his own eyes! He knows the power of industrialization, and he also knows the benefits of political reform..."
"But will the cancer of the Manchu Qing Dynasty accept Zai Chun's reforms? Not at all. Those conservative forces will definitely restrict it and even resist it forcefully... In addition, Yi himself is an ambitious and powerful uncle with an army!"
"Do you think they will have a civil war? I say they will definitely..." Xiang Ying roared, "At that time, the land of Gyeonggi Province will become a hell on earth, and those Eight Banners soldiers will kill each other. There will be no roosters crowing for thousands of miles, and the bones will be exposed. Yu Ye!”
"They will be a big embarrassment and shameless in front of the people all over the world! They used to be covered up by a dirty and smelly brocade quilt, but what about now? The war will expose everything..."
"Those pedantic Confucian scholars will find that the so-called sage king is a scam. The Qing emperors who sang about benevolence and filial piety bit each other like wild dogs..."
"How will other ethnic groups in Mongolia, Hui, Qinghai and Tibet view the Manchus? The image of the boss that has been established for two hundred years will be shattered..."
"What about the ignorant people, the people who are lost in their habits? They will see with their own eyes that the so-called true dragon emperor suddenly turned into a poisonous snake. It turns out that the stories told by the Confucian scholars are all false, and the hungry wolves bite each other with swords and soldiers. His ugliness is still vivid in my mind!”
"At that time, no matter other ethnic groups, Han high-ranking officials, gentry and landlords, wealthy businessmen, including ordinary people... will see this ugly scene, and will be deeply disappointed and disgusted with the Qing Dynasty!"
"Hahaha, do you think Yi will win this war or Zaichun will win? In fact, no matter who wins, the Manchu and Qing Dynasties will all lose, because their last fig leaf has been torn to pieces, and their ugliness will be exposed to the public..."
"The head of state's plan is to cut off the Qing Dynasty's connection to the people's hearts from the very root! Cut them all off, leaving no one behind!"
