Chapter XXIII: The Paris Peace Conference

Lu Zhonglin didn't come to the hospital for a few days, and the French nurse who took care of her leisure could see the melancholy between her eyebrows and eyes, and every time she put a few lily of the valley flowers in her room with a bright smile. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 ο½‰ο½Žο½†ο½

"Oriental girl, why don't you smile, you are so beautiful, you must be charming like an angel when you smile."

Zhixian was grateful for her kindness and thanked her fluently in French: "I like the flowers you bring every day. ”

"That's the lily of the valley, a symbol of the happiness of our French nation!"

The nurse never thought that this oriental girl would answer her words, and for the first time in the past few days, she could not help but feel a little flattered, and said more: "Its meaning is the return of happiness, although I don't know what you have suffered, I wish your happiness can dispel the gloom between your eyebrows and eyes as soon as possible." ”

Zhixian was a little surprised, and turned his head to look at the soft white flowers on the table.

"Zhixian, what did I bring you?"

Hearing this, the nurse winked playfully at Zhixian and fluttered out of the ward like a butterfly.

Zhixian looked up and saw that it was Yang Ru, and couldn't help but wonder a little in his heart, Yang Ru had always been close to Li Tianzhi and them, and had publicly announced that what she looked down on the most was Lu Zhonglin's middle-of-the-road thinking with a decadent feudal atmosphere, followed by a numb citizen like Yan Zhixian who didn't care about national affairs. She appeared in the ward at this moment, and it was no wonder that she was curious.

Yang Ru didn't seem to notice the idle look, put down the rice cooker in his hand and began to make an enthusiastic gesture: "The Entente that won the world war is going to hold a peace conference in Versailles, and I heard that Chief Lu will arrive in Paris with a diplomatic mission this afternoon!" ”

"We must take this opportunity to get back the territory of Jiaozhou Bay that Germany has occupied! In addition, the rights and interests of the state must also be protected, such as...

Seeing that she was about to talk endlessly, Zhixian interrupted her with a headache: "What did you bring me?" ”

Yang Ru was stunned, glanced at Zhixian with very disappointed eyes, and said in a cold tone: "That's the chicken soup that everyone pooled money to buy for you, you have a good rest, I'll go first." ”

Zhixian nodded in response, looking at her back who couldn't wait to leave, and breathed a long sigh of relief. If she stays, one of the two must be aggrieved. The peace conference was held in Paris, and presumably Lu Zhonglin has been devoting himself to this in the past few days.

Well, it looks like I still have a few days to spare.

Zhixian sighed sullenly, her current psychology is in a very contradictory state, the bloody scars of her previous life are finally forced to be revealed, but the person she thinks is the executioner is a doctor who has always known everything, she can't help but face it, and she doesn't dare to think too much, people are almost collapsing.

The purity of Zhixian's imagination did not last until the afternoon.

Lu Zhonglin came in with a half-person-tall document, spread the book out on the floor in a mess, and sat down on the stool with a sigh of relief.

Zhixian turned his head slightly to look at him: "I heard that the foreign minister will arrive in Paris in a few days?" ”

"How do you know?" Lu Zhonglin's nerves collapsed very tightly, thinking that Zhixian didn't care about political affairs, the whole person returned to the state of a dead dog: "Well, come to the peace meeting." ”

"Aren't you going to see your father?"

Lu Zhonglin jumped up from the stool, glanced at the door with a weak heart, and said to Zhixian: "Zhixian, how do you know?" ”

At the end, seeing the faint smile on the corner of her mouth, she suddenly understood, pointed at her and said, "You lie to me!" ”

"Forget it, it doesn't matter if you tell you, I ran away from home this time, and he doesn't know where I went," Lu Zhonglin looked very proud: "If he dares to sign a loan agreement, I dare not recognize him as a father." ”

Zhixian doesn't know where his naΓ―ve logic comes from, to be honest, the factional disputes within the government are really dazzling to watch, aside from the sidelines, Lu Xiang's loan is not for the operation of the state machine?

Looking at all the large and small warlords, which one's decision was not selfish, and even Duan Qi's decision to participate in the war was not all for the sake of seeking the obvious benefits?

"Now you know why I don't have money to eat, I escaped from home, and the money in Shanghai was almost spent," Lu Zhonglin got up and hugged Zhixian as an ancient person: "I also want to thank Yan Zhixian for sending charcoal in the snow." ”

Zhixian didn't care about his poverty, knowing that it was useless for her to say, she had never been nosy, so Lu Zhonglin took a pile of books to lay on the floor in the ward.

Soon, Zhixian regretted that he didn't drive him away because of his sympathy for a while.

Although others are in the ward, their hearts are concerned about the outside, but they are stubborn and stubborn, and they refuse to take a step out of the hospital.

"In addition to the fact that Britain received territories under the Mandate of the League of Nations, France took possession of the Saarland, the United States adopted the principle of open doors, and Japan received German possessions in the Pacific......"

"What is the axiom? We are fighting for sovereignty abroad, and our 40,000,000 compatriots are determined to defend our Qingdao, and we must not allow the delegation to sign it! ”

"Compatriots, patriotic enthusiasm has ignited Beiping and Shanghai, and we hope that this torch of enthusiasm can illuminate the whole of China!"

The broadcast trend gradually changed from expectation to disappointment, and Lu Zhonglin's heart became more and more anxious day by day.

"If he signs the treaty, I will ......"

Zhixian looked at him secretly clenching his fists, raised his eyes and asked, "How are you?" If you make another trick of running away from home, then you have to go back and apologize to Mr. Lu first. ”

Lu Zhonglin was stunned for a moment, and soon understood that Zhixian was making fun of him, saying that he had no other way than to run away from home, so he blushed for a while: "I ......"

"Alas! I really don't know how you did it! Lu Zhonglin spread his hands and said, "The situation in the country is so chaotic, you don't care at all!" I'd rather be as indifferent as you, and I don't have to rush to eat now. ”

Zhixian turned a page of the book and looked up at him: "Since it's already messy, then I'd better not add to the mess." As for indifference, this cannot be called selfish.

Lu Zhonglin's heart is like a child who has been pampered and raised, he has more than enough enthusiasm and lack of toughness, and he still has to return to the road that suited him in the first place.

"I don't know if this word is signed or not, it makes these people sell it badly!" He punched the book hard and said nothing.
