Section 37 It had to be pulled in
After listening to what Fu Li said, Zhu Jinglun finally understood that it was not Lin Fuxiang who exposed himself, but the governor Bai Gui, who was seeking self-protection, actively inquired into it. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Fuli is a close confidant of Baigui, and he is a relative of Baigui, which is an absolute "person around him". When Bai Gui accepted Zhu Jinglun's hint to him, he didn't know what it meant, but the foreign soldiers of the governor's yamen had not been withdrawn, and it was not easy for the two to meet directly, and a civilian official like Bai Gui would definitely not meet rashly until he found out the details of Zhu Jinglun.
So he let his men go down to investigate, although Bai Gui was imprisoned, but he did not cut off contact with the outside world, and even had contact with the countryside outside the city, which is also the British and French coalition forces did not take it too seriously, to a certain extent, the British and French coalition forces also thought that Bai Gui had a connection with the outside of the city, and it also helped them, for example, in May, Lin Fuxiang transferred more than 200 soldiers of the Yong battalion to secretly enter the city is the intelligence that Bai Gui exposed to the British and French coalition forces. On the other hand, Pashali also knew that Bai Gui was also selling the information of the British and French forces outside the city, for example, he openly complained that the resistance outside the city was the result of the instigation of the governor of Guangzhou.
Bai Gui wants to meet the source left and right, this kind of cleverness will only end up in a displeasing way, the civil officials outside the city have long been impeached by him, Bai Gui also explained to the emperor, telling the emperor that he betrayed a little innocuous information to foreigners, but it was just to paralyze foreigners, for the overall situation, "Don't let me be suspected of being an accomplice."
Fuli is obviously the channel through which Baigui communicates with the outside world, at least one of the channels. So when I saw Zhu Jinglun's color last night, after dawn, Fuli received a message from Bai Gui and began to inquire about Zhu Jinglun's background. Zhu Jinglun's public background is not difficult to find out, where the foreigner registered is a relative of the Zhang family. Fuli found the Zhang family again, and then the governor's Yu Wei, some intimidation and threats, the housekeeper of the Zhang family is a no idea, although the young grandmother in charge is not lacking in cleverness, but she is a woman, lack of courage, from when he saw Zhu Jinglun bring Lin Zhuang into the Zhang family, he was worried that the Zhang family would be involved and drove Zhu Jinglun out, he knew that this was a gutsless person.
These two people couldn't withstand Fu Li's threat, and quickly explained Zhu Jinglun's matter clearly.
Fuli then learned that Zhu Jinglun had been a soldier in Lin Fuxiang's Yong camp, and after the city was broken, he became a translator for foreigners in a blink of an eye, and Fuli only found out this simple news, and the Zhang family didn't say a word about foreigners, this simple information was not enough for a cautious person to determine that Zhu Jinglun was Lin Fuxiang's secret agent, but it was enough to arouse the suspicion of smart people.
Bai Gui is undoubtedly a smart person, he immediately suspected Lin Fuxiang's head, according to his cautious nature, he would never contact Zhu Jinglun immediately, but who made his current situation extremely difficult, when Huang Zonghan arrived, the officials outside the city began to keep their distance from him.
Obviously, the civilian clique of military training outside the city no longer trusts him, or is already abandoning him, just like the Guangdong bureaucracy collectively abandoned Ye Mingchen a few months ago, after Ye Mingchen was captured by the British and French forces, the vast majority of officials went to the court to impeach Ye Mingchen, and the responsibility for the fall of Guangzhou was put on Ye Mingchen.
And now, the countryside outside the city has become the climate, Huang Zonghan has also taken over the position of the governor of Liangguang, if you really need a scapegoat, it must be Bai Gui, Bai Gui can imagine, once the Son of Heaven wants to be held accountable after the war, those officials in Guangdong will definitely throw him out without hesitation, and I am afraid that any filthy charges will be added to him, at least a traitor will not be able to escape.
Even if this battle is won, Xiang Yong recovers Guangzhou City, Bai Gui feels that his situation will not be much better, first, there are still people who need to be responsible for the occupation of Guangzhou City, if one Ye Mingchen is not enough, he Baigui will also have to fall into it, and secondly, how many people are staring at his position as governor, he has fallen, some people have come up, I am afraid that many people want him to die, especially those civil officials who have made meritorious contributions in recovering Guangzhou City, it is more likely that they want him to fall, and when the time comes, those people will rely on the merit of recovering the land and collectively impeach him. Bai Gui is dead.
Therefore, Bai Gui has been eagerly hoping to be accepted by civil officials outside the city for a period of time, but the resistance to him outside the city is getting deeper and deeper, not only the three wild squires have no respect for him, but even the two prefects of Nanhai and Panyu who have worked together in the past have begun to avoid him, according to Bai Gui's eyeliner outside the city, Bai Gui has reason to think that there has been an anti-Bai Gui group outside the city.
When he learned that the emperor had sent Lord Qincha to come, Bai Gui even had a secret conversation with the foreigner, telling him that he needed to go out of the city and meet this Lord Qincha first, because he was afraid that Lord Qincha would meet these civil officials who had trained Xiangyong first, and it would be unfavorable to him. As a result, the foreigners did not believe in Baigui and did not let Baigui go out of the city.
Therefore, although Bai Gui was cautious, he also had to take a risk, and just by guessing, he immediately sent someone to contact Zhu Jinglun, in this regard, he was worse than Lin Fuxiang, because his situation was too much worse than Lin Fuxiang.
Zhu Jinglun knew all this to some extent, and from time to time he found out from Lin Zhuang's mouth that some rural groups outside the city were dissatisfied with Bai Gui, but Zhu Jinglun hesitated, he recruited Bai Gui because he felt that the help of such a high-ranking and powerful person might have a great influence on the civil official group outside the city, but now it seems that Bai Gui is so urgent, I am afraid that the relationship with the civil official group outside the city is too bad, so if he comes forward, it will be counterproductive.
But it's just hesitation, in short, Bai Gui's character, even if he is down, is much greater than the resources in his hands, and there is always a place for use, and he is also the connections and power in his own hands to win it over when he is silent.
So he smiled and raised his glass: "The governor raises love, if the governor has any orders, he is willing to smear his liver and brains, and he will not give up." ”
Fu Li inquired again: "I don't know when Lord Lin and Lord Huang plan to attack the city?" ”
Zhu Jinglun shook his head and said, "I don't know about the affairs of adults. ”
This sentence is very reasonable, as for what Bai Gui will think, then I don't know, maybe he will feel that Zhu Jinglun still doesn't believe him.
Fu Li also understands people, otherwise he wouldn't be able to do this kind of conspiracy, so he stopped asking no more questions, kept persuading him to drink, and ordered a table of good dishes, and the two of them didn't mention it.
After saying goodbye to Fuli, Zhu Jinglun had a hidden worry in his heart, Zhang Qianshan's family seemed to be too deeply involved in his own affairs, which was something that could not be helped, because as soon as he appeared, he appeared in the Zhang family, and he couldn't hide it from the Zhang family at all. And Zhang Qianshan invited himself to a banquet last time, and he had already shown a very strong interest in participating in the recovery of Guangzhou City. This time, his whereabouts were exposed, and it was because of the Zhang family, which was a dead hole of his own, and Zhu Jinglun couldn't help but start thinking about how to erase this dead hole.
If you want to block the mouth of the Zhang family, you will either kill people and destroy your mouth, or let the Zhang family be satisfied, if you can't really get the Zhang family involved, let Zhang Qianshan get a piece of the pie, Zhu Jinglun doesn't care about this, what he cares about is safety, so he was reluctant to let Zhang Qianshan participate before, but now it seems that the Zhang family has been involved. If I can't figure it out, I really have a good talk with Zhang Qianshan again.
But before he had to deal with other things, urgent matters, he had to meet with Hou Jin and Lin Zhuang first, he had to learn some other information as soon as possible, after Pa Xiali was arrested, he was also black-eyed, and he didn't know anything.
