One hundred and thirty-one. republic
Wu Peifu and Xie Huaichang didn't come back all night, and Xie Daoyong remembered that Xie Huaichang was obviously the director of the Academic Affairs Office of the Military Academy, and he should be in Baoding, not in the capital.
He couldn't wait for Xie Huaichang to come back, so he went to ask Mrs. Li first, but when he returned home, Mrs. Li was quarreling with Zhang Peilan, the concubine of the Wu family.
As soon as Xie Daoyong saw this situation, he hurriedly pulled Xie Huai'an to retreat to the front yard, and the sound of the quarrel came from a distance through a few rooms.
The uncle and nephew sat in the warm pavilion and drank tea, smiling bitterly while listening to the sound, Zhang Peilan's teeth were sharp, and Mrs. Li was obviously down.
Xie Daoyong inquired with Xie Huai'an: "Have the concubines in your father's backyard quarreled?"
Xie Huai'an hurriedly shook his head: "How come, aunts, who dares to offend my mother?"
Xie Daoyong smiled: "Your father-in-law said that it is not enough to spoil the concubine and kill his wife, the trouble is that Mrs. Wu is also dedicated to helping that Aunt Zhang, I think Mrs. Li can't fight this concubine." ”
"It's because the old lady helped Aunt Zhang that my father-in-law is not good for my mother-in-law," Xie Huai'an sighed: "I don't think Zhen Zhen is as majestic as my mother, and she can suppress the warblers and swallows in the backyard, so it's better not to take concubines in this life." ”
Xie Daoyong smiled: "I didn't see it, you are still a lover." ”
Xie Huai'an rubbed his nose and coughed: "Didn't my uncle take a concubine?" ”
Xie Daoyong said generously: "Because your uncle and I are a lover." ”
Xie Huai'an asked, "Uncle is really full of people?"
Xie Daoyong smiled again: "Look at your uncle's ability, the eldest lady of the banner family can turn his hand." ”
Xie Huaian hurriedly complimented him: "Yes, yes, my uncle is a person who wants to do great things." ”
"Big things can't be done," Xie Daoyong waved his hand: "Big things are going to be left to you to do, Huai'an, I don't think you have to stay in the capital for too long, it's better to go back as soon as possible." ”
Xie Huai'an shook his head: "I'm afraid that Zhen Zhen may not be able to leave with confidence." ”
"She doesn't have to worry about her father," Xie Daoyong smiled: "Her father's rich days are still ahead." ”
The rich man never returned home, but Xie Huaichang came back again two days later, saying that he wanted to send Xie Huaian and his wife back to Zhenjiang, Wu Xinyi naturally refused, saying that he had to see Wu Peifu safe and sound before he could go south, Xie Huaian couldn't persuade her, so he had to discuss with his younger brother: "Father-in-law can't come back?"
Xie Huaichang was nervous: "The city is about to die, and now more than 1,000 shops have been robbed, and this number is still increasing, and the members of the mission in Nanjing are also frightened, and the president is dealing with the aftermath, I am afraid that the capital will be under martial law in the next few days, and it will be troublesome to leave then." ”
His title for Yuan Shikai changed, from "Yuan Dashuai" to "Big President", Xie Huaian noticed this and frowned very quickly: "Big President?"
Xie Huaichang said: "The overall situation has been decided, and the official inauguration is just a matter of the past few days. ”
Xie Huaian waved his hand: "Let me ask you first, why are you in the capital, shouldn't you be in Baoding?"
Xie Huaichang smiled bitterly: "I didn't stay in Baoding for two days before I was called to the capital, saying that I was seconded, but there were no paperwork procedures, and I didn't know when I would be able to go back." ”
Xie Huai'an asked again: "The mutiny was arranged by the president?"
Xie Huaichang stretched out his hands: "I don't know, your father-in-law said that it was arranged by the eldest son, but I haven't even seen the eldest son, and I don't know as much as your father-in-law." ”
Xie Huai'an said: "You have to let your sister-in-law see him, otherwise she won't be able to leave with peace of mind." ”
Xie Huaichang slapped his thigh: "If he can come back early in the morning, I can't take my sister-in-law to the barracks." ”
Xie Huaian thought for a while: "Then let him write a letter?"
Xie Huaichang said: "You better hurry up and persuade her, I will be specially approved for this trip, and I will send you to the station and leave, I can't afford to delay the time over there." ”
Xie Huai'an frowned deeply, searching her stomach to find a reason to convince Wu Xinyi, but Wu Xinyi had already walked out of the room by herself, she heard the conversation between the two brothers, her face was still pale, but her expression had calmed down: "I'll go back to Zhenjiang." ”
Xie Huai'an hurriedly turned around, and Wu Xinyi smiled at him: "Let's go back." ”
Xie Huaichang had a look of guilt on his face: "Sister-in-law, I'm really sorry for ......"
Wu Xinyi waved his hand: "I can't blame you, it's me who has a lot of trouble, I just want to make sure that my father is safe, and he is fine." ”
Xie Huaichang hurriedly nodded: "Your father is very safe, sister-in-law, please rest assured." ”
Wu Xinyi was still a little uneasy, the joints of the hand holding the door frame turned white, she smiled at Xie Huaichang again, and said in a low voice: "I'll go clean up." ”
Xie Huaichang nodded, and said again: "Please be sure to hurry." ”
They didn't bring too many things, because Wu Xinyi likes to travel lightly, so the idea is not enough to buy now. She went back to the room and looked around, and felt that there was really nothing to bring, so it was better to put it in the capital, and it would be more convenient to live when she came back.
Xie Huai'an has nothing to do, if she doesn't want to clean up, then she won't clean up, Zhang Peilan panicked and took some snacks and fruits to pack and took them to eat on the road.
Mrs. Li hugged Wu Xinyi and cried, there was no one in this family who could support her, but now Wu Xinyi is leaving again. Xie Huai'an and Xie Huaichang were so anxious that they were waiting outside, but in the end, Zhang Peilan couldn't see it, and said a few words in a weird way, and Wu Xinyi was released.
When she went out, Zhang Peilan was sent to the gate, Wu Xinyi's expression was embarrassed, and she asked Zhang Peilan to let Mrs. Li more, the latter smiled and mixed up the words, Wu Xinyi could see it, but she didn't know how to ask her for this guarantee.
Besides, it may not be useful to guarantee it, swearing is just a touch of the skin, and breaking the promise does not have to be much complicated, rather than asking for Zhang Peilan's guarantee, it is better to tell Wu Peifu to be kind to Mrs. Li.
The car was already waiting outside, Xie Huaichang had bright armor, and he specially brought his military ID. As they walked through the streets, they were desolate, with no one to collect the dead bodies, the shops were closed, and only a few policemen or soldiers were stationed in the streets.
Wu Xinyi lay on the window of the car and watched everything, without saying a word all the way, her hand was pinched in the palm of Xie Huai'an's hand, and she was tired of cold sweat.
Xie Huaichang revealed his identity and drove the car directly under the platform, they didn't have much luggage, so it was convenient to move, they had to take the car to Tianjin first, from Tianjin to Shanghai, and then from Shanghai back to Zhenjiang.
Xie Huaichang said goodbye to them in front of the carriage, the platform was crowded with people, because everyone wanted to flee, and the destination was Tianjin, but in fact, Tianjin was not very peaceful, this mutiny in the capital had already alarmed foreign embassies, starting with Japan, every country was moving troops, but fortunately they were just transferring trains in Tianjin, and they did not settle down.
"You think about it, resign," Xie Huaian said to Xie Huaichang: "Go home and help me, or find another errand for Mr. Teach, Zhenjiang College of Arts and Sciences is about to start, you can go to teach English, if you are really reluctant, you can also go to Shanghai to join up with Brother Yuji, you know what he is doing." ”
Xie Huaichang didn't expect him to say this suddenly, he must have been thinking about it for a few days, he smiled at Xie Huai'an, and shook his hand vigorously: "The horse leather shroud should swear by itself; ”
Xie Huai'an held his hand for a while and didn't let go, but just lifted the other one and patted him on the shoulder: "Take care, if you want anything, just tell me." ”
Xie Huaichang's smile deepened: "Then I'm welcome." ”
Xie Huai'an replied: "You're welcome. ”
On the second day of their departure, the ambassadors of various countries in Beijing held a meeting in the British embassy and decided on a series of plans for sending troops. Yuan Shikai had no choice but to send notes to the embassies of various countries, repeatedly emphasizing that the situation in the capital was under control, and the governments of the Republic of China would still fulfill the agreements signed between the countries and the former Qing Dynasty.
The lost land is just gone, and the messy place is still the same. After the mutiny, Li Yuanhong, who was in Wuhan, issued a statement, saying that if he gave up Nanjing, he would not cause chaos, but if he gave up Beijing, he would die, and this sentence immediately caused a storm throughout the country, and the Nanjing Parliament was already full of contradictions over the matter of fixing the capital, and such a disturbance was even more out of control, and several special envoys and commissioners who had picked up their lives returned south in embarrassment, and the description of the Beijing mutiny also strengthened the determination of those "northern factions." Ten days later, Yuan Shikai officially took the oath in Beijing and was inaugurated as the provisional president of the Republic of China.
Wanlan returned to Zhenjiang's old house from Shanghai, and Chen Ji deliberately took the time to send her, because she was pregnant, and this good news diluted the gloomy and solemn atmosphere in the mansion and made everyone busy. The eldest lady's original residence had to be cleaned and cleaned up more comfortably and pleasantly, and Mrs. Qin personally handled this matter, even the color of the tent was personally chosen by her.
Wanlan is a little plumper than before she got married, and it may be because of pregnancy. It was only two months when I found out, and it was when the fetus was unstable, and Chen Ji had never served a pregnant woman, plus he was already busy with affairs, so he wanted to send her to Yangzhou, but I heard that when a woman was pregnant, she had a strange temper, and she was only afraid of being suspicious when she lived with her mother-in-law.
"It would also be a good fortune if this child could be born in the first year of the Republic of China," Xie Huai'an said, "The same age as the new country." ”
Wanlan put her hand on her stomach and said angrily: "I don't want my son to be the same age as the new country, I don't know how long the new country can live." ”
Xie Huaian was taken aback: "You really dare to say it!"
Wanlan leaned comfortably on the chaise longue and snorted: "At the beginning, there was a catastrophe, the capital is half of the city Dai Xiao, and the president can still serve with peace of mind, but I am afraid that the abacus in Nanjing will fail, and someone will disagree." ”
