Chapter 6 The mystery is gradually revealed
The hot Fuxia finally fell with the rain, and the sound of rain outside the window was mixed with a few flashes of thunder, which made Shen Mu's depressed heart fall to the bottom more and more. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
When he saw the Sangang file in Song Yu's hand, Shen Mu still couldn't avoid shrinking his pupils.
It has been three days since I came back from the Lu Mansion.
As the old saying goes, a married daughter is like water spilled out, Lu Song joined forces, and Shen Mu was naturally happy. But in the end, she inherited the kindness of the Shen family, and she always thought about the Shen family in her heart. Now that the benefits of the Song family are based on the defeat of the Shen family, Shen Mu can't help but worry about it.
The rain became more and more intensive, and the wisps floated in from the half-open blinds, hitting Shen Mu's arm little by little, pulling back her wandering senses.
Shen Mu pulled his shawl back to his senses, turned to look at the old man with a pipe in his mouth on the sofa, "Father, Lu Xian doesn't believe in the Shen family. ”
Shen Xing was not surprised, obviously he had expected it. Green smoke rose from the cigarette holder, filling the room, stabbing Shen Xing involuntarily squinting his somewhat cloudy eyes.
"Ah Mu, you came to the Shen family, Song Yu knows?"
Shen Mu didn't answer, she was a little puzzled, when was it, the old man of her family still cared about the feelings of the Song family.
Thinking about it, she didn't dare to say anything, she just stood quietly aside, and the slightly raised eyeliner at the corners of her eyes outlined her calm aura.
Shen Nan, who had been silent on the side, saw that the atmosphere was a little stiff, so he got up and poured a pot of tea and handed it to Shen Xing.
He is the second son in the family, and the eldest brother goes out to run errands, so Shen Nan naturally takes over the boss's job during this time. But he has always been a jumpy character, even if he marries a wife, he has not changed, and he is still the ruffian of that gentleman.
"Father, it's common sense for Ah Mu to go home to see you, even if he enters the door of the Song family, his Song family can't take care of everything, right?"
Shen Xing glanced at Shen Nan's playful flattery, lowered his brows and glared, "It's not in shape!" He said this, but he also took Shen Nan's tea, lifted the tea lid and plucked the foam of the tea noodles, and let the steaming heat roll up into a white mist that blurred his sharp eyes, "What the second brother said is also reasonable." ”
He took a sip of tea, his slightly furrowed brow soothing. Obviously, Shen Nan's tea-making skills still won the favor of the old man. Shen Mu, who was standing on the side, also sat down with his shawl, poured himself a cup of tea, and relaxed his tense lips and tongue.
She was a little tired from standing for a long time, and she leaned on the sofa with her eyes closed, her right hand slightly raised and gently twisted her eyebrows.
Shen Xing put down the tea bowl, stood up on the faucet's crutch, slowly walked to the mullioned window on the other side, looked at the summer rain and thunder outside the window, and muttered for a moment: "The Lu family of Beiping is willing to marry the Shen family, and has already made up his mind. He chuckled lowly, "Lu Xian just doesn't worry about me, it's not the Shen family that he doesn't worry about." ”
Shen Mu raised his head in surprise, looked at the old figure in front of the window, and asked in a low voice, "Why is my father so sure?" He doesn't worry about you..."
"He doesn't worry about me, why would he choose the Shen family." Shen Xing turned around and looked at Shen Qian, "Is this what you want to ask?" ”
Without waiting for her to answer, Shen Xing paced a few steps with the dragon head on crutches, "Don't forget, the Shen family is not my Shen family alone." What Lu Xian wants is strong economic support, except for the Lin family, a banking family, only our Shen family has this condition. ”
"It's a pity that there are only two girls in the Lin family, one became your sister-in-law three years ago, and the other has not returned since he studied in Japan since he was a child."
"Looking at the whole of Shanghai, the only one who urgently needs a girl with a government background and a school-age girl is the Shen family."
"Back then, Lu Xian's jealousy of my power in Shanghai for many years was not very obvious. Now that he has gained a firm foothold, there is no need to say that the military circles are calling for wind and rain, and he has also intervened in Shanghai's economy today. ”
After Shen Xing finished speaking, his eyes were a little gloomy, and after snorting coldly, he turned around and continued to look at the continuous drizzle outside the window.
"Back then? Father means that Lu Xian was already observing various forces before entering Shanghai? Shen Nan only realized the seriousness of the matter at this time, and he frowned, a little puzzled.
Lu Xian only served as the Shanghai town guard this year, so naturally he only moved into Shanghai this year.
How can it be said that it was back then?
Could it be that before taking office, Lu Xian had already figured out the forces from all walks of life to get to the current skillful maneuver?
Shen Nan was a little shocked when he thought of this, after all, if it was said that back then, Lu Xian, who had not served in Shanghai, had been accompanying his brother Zhenjun in Jiangsu, which was adjacent to Shanghai.
Lu Jia's old mainland Xun was the overseer of Jiangsu who served four years ago, and a year later he was the commander of the Soviet army. It was at that time that Lu Xian received an order from North China to go to Jiangsu to accompany his eldest brother to recover Jiangsu forces.
For this reason, the Lu family paid a lot of price, and even their eldest daughter, Lu Yumin, the second Miss Lu, gave up her marriage to marry into the Zhou family, the first family in Nanjing, and became the eldest grandmother of the Zhou family.
In the next three years, the three Lu brothers and sisters stirred up trouble in Jiangsu, which can be called ghosts and gods.
Up to now, Jiangsu's forces have almost recovered, and the order has been issued, and Lu Xian has been ordered to serve as the guard of Shanghai.
If Lu Xian was observing all walks of life in Shanghai back then, then it would have been at least two or three years, and when all forces in Jiangsu were entangled, this lonely young general had already been distracted to meddle in Shanghai's affairs.
Shen Xing straightened his somewhat stiff body, his eyes sharp, "You have reacted." ”
"In the tenth year of the Republic of China, Lu Xian's troops were stationed in Jiangsu, but he sought a lot of rights for his brother."
"It's a pity that the offensive of the Northern Expeditionary Army is becoming more and more fierce, and now I have heard that I have cooperated with the Communist Party and opened a Whampoa Military Academy, and this reputation is becoming more and more intense."
"This Lu family also had to make plans for themselves. As early as when Lu Xian settled in Jiangsu, he had already planted spies in Shanghai. Hongkou Hotel has been getting better and better in recent years. ”
Shen Nan looked at Shen Xing's back, his brows furrowed tighter, and his face retracted the usual smile, "According to what you say, Lu Xian's scheming is not shallow. ”
Three years ago, Shanghai's business community emerged in a new corner, and one of the people named Li Hong can be regarded as the leader in it, who single-handedly founded the Hongkou Hotel, and has been innovating for three years, and today's performance can be regarded as a benchmark in the industry.
If you follow the information revealed in Shen Xing's words, it is not difficult to guess that this Li Hong, who came to Shanghai three years ago to show his skills, is Lu Xian's spy in Shanghai.
And so successfully.
"I only learned about it in the last year. This is Lu Xian's good method, I am afraid that looking at the whole of Shanghai, there are few people who can match him at this age. ”
Shen Xing said that he knocked on the wooden board with his cane, making a dull sound, and pulled Shen Mu, who had always been a little incredulous, back to his senses.
Shen Mu had some clarity in his eyes, no wonder, after only more than a month of marriage, Shen Qian was physically and mentally exhausted.
It is estimated that it is not easy to deal with Lu Xian on weekdays.
"No wonder, Coriander is so tired now." Shen Qian couldn't help muttering. Shen Xing snorted coldly when he heard this, and scolded lightly: "I can't stand this bit of suffering?" The days to come will be long! ”
He walked back to the main seat of the sofa on crutches and struggled to sit down, "Lu Xian wants to deal with me, but after all, he is still young and frivolous, and he is a little tender!" ”
"He thinks that a mere poisonous snake will disturb the old man's position?" Shen Xing's eyes revealed profundity, and he swept over Shen Mu sharply, "You shouldn't know about this matter, don't get involved blindly." This handle of the Song family, I will still be useful in the future. ”
When Shen Xing's eyes swept over Shen Mu, she trembled slightly, lowered her eyebrows, and replied respectfully, "Yes, father." ”
Four days ago, a poisonous snake appeared in Shen Qian's room the night before, and it also appeared on the bed.
But in the end, no one thought that this snake was just a cover used by Lu Xian to test the Shen family.
No matter how it is handled, the Shen family will suffer a loss this time.
But there is no hurry, there is time in the future.
Besides, looking at the offensive of the Northern Expeditionary Army, within two years, the Lu family in Beiping will lose ground greatly, after all, the Lu family, which belongs to the Beiyang warlords, is becoming less and less inferior after Yuan Shikai's death.
In this play, Shen Xing is willing to sing with him Lu Xian, and Shen Xing is confident that Lu Xian is too tender after all, and in current affairs, Shen Xing believes in his own judgment.
He waited for the day when Lu Xian knelt in front of him.
Annoyed repentance.
