In truth, Zai Cheng didn't have much ability, he was just a popinjay who enjoyed himself a lot. However, he couldn't stand up to the many aides around him!

There were always smart people who would advise the Duke, and also teach the Master Belle the secrets of the political arena. Before they came, there were already people explaining to Zai Cheng about the twists and turns in the political arena.

Zai Cheng came prepared, but in truth, Li Hongzhang did not fight without any preparation, both sides had a tacit understanding of the situation!

Zai Cheng knew that he couldn't force his way too much into dealing with these old cunning foxes.

It was completely different from the bureaucrats in the yamen. This kind of person was not someone you could force into a corner, so you had to be polite and do your job well.

Furthermore, you can't expect them to immediately submit to you. If you can pull these warlords over to their sides, betting on both sides is already a rare victory!

Zai Cheng threw a fried shrimp ball into his mouth, then smacked his lips and said: "Master Li don't have to look bad, my dad won't force you to do anything!"

"You are very loyal to the Great Qing Dynasty, we all know that. You will lead our troops and guard the mountains and rivers of the Great Qing Province, and in the future, you will have the foundation of a son and grandson!"

"Actually, I didn't ask for you to do anything to Gordon when I came to see you today. We still have a lot of respect for General Gordon!"

"But we also have to understand, let the foreign devils lead the troops? Isn't the Great Qing in a mess? "

"As long as he, Gordon does not lead any troops, then everything will be fine, we will not cause trouble for our old friend!"

Zai Cheng's words were extremely clear, and Li Hongzhang understood immediately. So, General Gui Six did not force him to submit, he only wanted him to remain neutral.

It's good to be neutral! It was good to be neutral! The Chinese warlord s will remain neutral and fight for power within the Manchu. No matter who becomes the Emperor, the wealth of your Chinese warlord will always be there!

This was the promise of General Gui Six!

Not only was it a promise to the Chinese warlord, it was also a promise to Gordon, the European adventurer who came to China to seek an opportunity!

You, Gordon, do not hold the military power. This is the lowest limit, if you cross this line, then don't blame us for being heartless!

Maybe Bai Qiwen will end up like you, Gordon!

Time seemed to have stopped, the entire inn was in dead silence, even the three girls did not dare to cry anymore, Zai Cheng drank his wine and calmly waited for Li Hongzhang's response!

After a full fifteen minutes, Li Hongzhang suddenly laughed, and poured himself a cup of wine, raising his head to drink!

"Master Belle! It has been a long time since this official has had such a pleasant chat … I must toast you with a cup, and then there will be a gift for you! "

"Aiyo, then I'll have to receive it with both hands …"

Li Hongzhang and Zai Cheng drank a cup of wine, "This subject is an official of the Great Qing, I naturally have to be loyal to the Great Qing! As long as this Forbidden City does not start to fight like six years ago, I will naturally be happy! "

"If you can do less, then do less!"

"As for Gordon, I haven't been in contact with him for seven or eight years. I'm afraid we can't do it! "

This official has a small gift for you. Please return and send it to Lord Gordon! I believe that after he sees it, he will be able to speak to you properly! "

Who was Li Hongzhang? Like a ghost, what have you not seen before? He had already known about the news of Gordon going back to the Great Qing Sect as an official, so he had come prepared this time!

The riders behind carried a wooden box. When Li Hongzhang opened it, he found that it was actually an old revolver wrapped in red silk.

"The original owner of the 1847 revolver was the Bai Qiwen who was ordered to drown to death by me … As long as this spear is given to Gordon, he will know everything! "

"Take this spear, Master Belle will go and have a good talk with Gordon … I believe that his attitude will improve! "

"Eh? Does this gun have a story? " Zai Cheng asked.

Li Hongzhang shook his head: "Things that happened ten years ago, I am also not willing to talk about it. The people involved are too numerous … Master Belle doesn't need to ask anymore! "

"However, this official feels that the condition of the Master Belle just now, might be something that he can accept … Alright, farewell! "

"But before I leave, please give this official some face …" Let the girl in the backyard go! If we pay more silver coins, we might be able to survive in a place like this! "

"They were here with you tonight, so how could they marry? The only way out for them is for them to leave their hometown and find a place where they can live a new life that no one knows! "

"It can be considered that this humble one has done a good deed every day. I hope that the Myriad Master Belle can help this humble one realize my petty thoughts!"

Li Hongzhang left, neither haughtily nor arrogantly throwing down a soft nail for Zai Cheng to consider. Zai Cheng had thought that he would definitely be able to take care of Li Hongzhang, but he never expected that these Chinese Officer Warlords would be so hard to fight.

He had achieved his goal, but he was not happy at all. Despite winning the negotiations, he still felt like he had eaten a fly.

"This bunch of Chinese are f * cking trash. They're so damn awesome with a soldier in their hands!" Once my Manchu has pacified the chaos in the world and retracted all of our military power, everyone will kill you! "

En Guang carefully walked in from outside the door. "Master Belle... This servant has already sent Lord Li away. When are you going back to the city? "Prince and Fu Jin are waiting for you …"

"Pah …" Hurry up, hurry up! This grandpa hasn't had enough fun yet! "

"Give me the deer blood!" As for the three little waves of hooves behind us, look at me, I'll let them live! "

"Don't... "Don't!" En Guang quickly kneeled down and explained himself, "At least give Master Li some face. The Prince needs the support of these Chinese warlord s!"

"Master Belle, have you forgotten how much trouble the Great Marshal Zeng has caused to the prince?"

"Master Belle should let him go … "Pity the poor little one, or Fujin will have to skin us when we return to the city!"

Zai Cheng bellowed with anger, "Fuck, I didn't play properly … Forget it, I don't want their lives anymore.

After drinking a bowl of deer blood, Zai Cheng rushed into the backyard. Not long later, the three girls started howling in pain again.

In the end, Zai Cheng ate lunch before leaving the good village and returning to the capital. As for the three families that were humiliated, they brought their children and ran away, no one knew where they were anymore!

The commoners of the good townships watched as belle Clear Cloud's group of hawks swaggered away. They hated them so much that their teeth itched, and they cursed without end!

But no matter how much he cursed, what could he do? I can't compete with the Imperial palace!

Zai Cheng knew that he could not delay his errands any longer. Taking the chance while the city gates were shut, he returned to the capital. That night, he did not go home but went straight to East Crossing Folk Lane, to visit Gordon at his home!
