Shen Boyong soon issued an armistice agreement and went to Jingling for a meeting as a defeated man with his illness. At the meeting, it was unanimously decided to assign the three provinces that originally belonged to the Kongxinfang-Hebei system to Guo Zirui, and to assign the three western provinces, including Lucheng and Anyang, which originally belonged to the Liao system, to the Hui system.

The convening of this conference is equivalent to completely eliminating the Liao system from the jurisdiction of the central government, and Shen Boyong was furious and coughed again and again at the meeting.

Lu Xiaoqian was secretly overjoyed and pretended to send troops to escort him back to Liaodong.

Shen Boyong resolutely refused, and as soon as the meeting ended, he boarded a special train to Liaodong.

As soon as Shen Boyong left with his front foot, Lu Xiaoqian whispered to Chengen beside him, "Are you ready?" ”

Lu Chengen nodded, "Please rest assured, uncle." ”

Lu Xiaoqian said, "This matter must not be made by the people of the world to think that we did it, but by the people of the island country." ”

Lu Chengen said, "The staffing above is arranged according to the standards of the island country, and Chengen has carefully checked it three times, and there will be no problem." ”

Lu Xiaoqian looked at his nephew with great satisfaction, and said with a serious smile, "I don't have to worry about you doing things." ”

The Shen family did not regain its former grandeur because of Shen Huaixin's return, from the marshal's mansion to the army, all of them were trembling and discussing, and many generals were pessimistic about the current situation, from top to bottom, all of them were filled with a strong sense of frustration.

In the days of Shen Boyong's absence, Huaixin was the acting marshal and was in charge of military and political affairs.

He went to the army during the day to inspect military affairs, convened generals to discuss the next plan, and reviewed the text at night.

The only leisure time is probably Miao Ling sent refreshments, and the little couple took this opportunity to chat a few words, most of them were talking in Huaixin, and Miao Ling was listening, and then commented slightly.

This night, Miao Ling took the initiative to ask about the mole, and Huaixin suddenly showed embarrassment, "Now the army's heart is already unstable, if it is openly investigated, it will definitely cause an uproar, so I have to secretly investigate." ”

"Is there any progress?"

"I always thought that there was a traitor in the army, but after I carefully interrogated the telegraph operator, I learned that this person was not a person in the army, but a person who could come and go at will in the marshal's mansion and knew foreign languages."

"Know a foreign language?" ”

Huaixin nodded, "The telegraph once said that after he received the telegram, he informed his father, he did not know the foreign language, but he knew that it was sent by the island country, but because his father was going to come back, so he instructed him to send the telegram to the desk in the study. According to the telegrapher, after he put it away, he did hear a noise coming from the study, but when he went back to check it carefully, he did not find anything unusual, he thought it was his hallucination, but now he thinks it is very suspicious. After that, the orderly actually sent the telegram one step ahead of my father, at that time we were all busy analyzing the battle situation, no one cared about it, and my father was happy to reward the orderly soldier, now looking back, these processes are very suspicious. ”

Miao Ling forcibly suppressed the uneasiness in her heart, and on the surface she still had a look of surprise that she had just knew, "Then you have an idea in your heart?" ”

Shen Huaixin frowned, his face was dark, and his clenched fist slammed into his knee, "I can't be sure yet, but, according to what the orderly said, at that time, he was subjected to... A telegram sent by my sister's order. ”

This statement was both unexpected and expected.

On the same day, she sent the forged telegram to the orderly, pointing out that the eldest lady was inconvenienced, and she was entrusted by her to order the orderly to send the telegram, and she had always been very close to the people of the Shuaifu, and others regarded her as a gentle and virtuous young lady, but the eldest lady never took people like them in her eyes.

Therefore, when Huaixin inquired about this matter, they knew that it was not a good thing, so they naturally did not say a word about Miao Ling.

Miao Ling calmed down, "So, my sister also understands foreign languages?" ”

Huaixin shook his head, "This is exactly what I'm confused about, my sister has never liked to read, and when I was a child, I was forced by my father to read the "Four Books" and "Five Classics", and then I learned some Tang poems and Song lyrics, and I couldn't read the whole article smoothly, how could I forge a foreign telegram?" ”

Miao Ling smiled, "That's not my sister, you can get rid of her." ”

Shen Huaixin still didn't take his suspicion away from his eldest sister, "She may not be able to, but what if someone helps her?" ”

He frowned and said, "My sister has always been dissatisfied with my father's preference for sons, and I can't get used to seeing me, a person who has never made meritorious contributions on the battlefield, sit in a higher official position than my brother-in-law, you don't know, in the past, she was also very enthusiastic to receive telegrams from the island country, and once took it upon herself to send a telegram to the island country in the name of her father, and my father was very angry that time, and reprimanded her fiercely, and since then she has not been asked to contact anything related to military politics." I didn't want to doubt her, but this series of events had to make me point the finger at her again. ”

Shen Huaixin was very painful, Miao Ling could see that even if he quarreled with Shen Huaijin constantly on weekdays, but blood was thicker than water, he always regarded her as his sister and his own relative, even if this relative would betray him, they still couldn't be cut between them.

But what about her?

Who is she?

If he knew that this qiē was all thanks to her, would he still be able to confide his heart to her without any scruples like he did now?

At this moment, Kong Miaoling had an unprecedented fear, which was different from the moment when the former soldiers came to the city to live and die, it was heart-wrenching, overwhelmed, and painful.

Before the two of them finished their heartfelt words, they saw the beginning of the year rushing from the outside in a hurry, this hurried color was different from the past, and there was clearly such a translucent diamond-like bead in the eye sockets.

"Young master, it's not good, I just received the news, saying... Handsome... Handsome... He..."

The more I talk about the first day of the new year, the more choked I become, the "handsome"

The two words were repeated three or four times, Shen Huaixin's intuition was not good, his eyes lit up, and he jumped up from the chair, "What's wrong with him?" Say! ”

Nian Yi wiped his eyes and said, "The special train that the handsome man is taking... Exploded! ”

"What?"

Shen Huaixin's eyes widened, an unbelievable face was fixed in a frame, and even Kong Miaoling on the side was shocked, and his heart was "poof"

mentioned the throat eye.

Shen Huaixin gasped roughly, flew to the front of Lunar New Year, grabbed Junior Year's shirt and lifted him up, and asked straight into his face, "What about the handsome?" How's the handsome? ”

Tears welled up in his eyes, and he choked up on the first day of the new year, "The special train was all blown up, and no one survived..."
