Although the civil officials praised Ge Yunfei a lot, if they were entrusted with important tasks and harmed their own interests, they would not raise their hands in favor. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 infoOfficialdom is like a battlefield, and everyone has a little ninety-nine.

This is even more true in military circles, and Duan Qirui, Minister of the Army, was naturally dissatisfied when he learned that Yuan Shikai wanted Ge Yunfei to serve as the deputy minister of the Ministry of the Army. After all, Ge Yunfei is not a core member of the Beiyang Department, and he has the obligation to safeguard the interests of the Beiyang Department. "My lord, I heard that you made Ge Yunfei the deputy commander of the army?" Duan Qirui got straight to the point. "Ge Yunfei is a rare military and political talent, he has the ability to be the deputy minister of the army, but it has not been finalized."

Yuan Shikai understood Duan's mood, and his words could not be both. "My lord, the generals have criticisms, thinking that Ge Yunfei is a hairy boy, it is difficult to convince the public, I hope that the adults will think twice?" Duan Qirui meant not to chill the hearts of the brothers. Yuan Shikai said: "You should understand the strength of the Shandong Independent Division, no one can control this army." Besides, the deputy chief of the army is just a fictitious post with no real power, do you know what I mean? Duan Qirui's eyes lit up when he heard this: "My subordinates understand!" “

"Brother Duan, what I mean is that you can reveal a thing or two to Feng Guozhang and Wang Shizhen, and the others have to hide it." "My lord, Cao Kun is full of complaints and is very dissatisfied with Ge Yunfei." "Cao Kun is a rough man, it doesn't matter. Maybe it's better, but it's not normal if no one objects. Yuan Shikai knew in his heart that even though Ge Yunfei was talented, he was young and junior after all. , holding military positions, civilian officials involve their own interests and will not strongly oppose it, and military attachés may not give up.

Yuan Shikai didn't care about the military attache Gu's noise, as long as Duan, Feng, and Wang Sanjie understood the mystery, the others didn't care. His abacus is not refined, but Ge Yunfei's abacus has already been clear, and he naturally has a countermeasure.

That night, in the Sihai Restaurant on Wangfu Street, Shan Feng reported: "Overseer, I have prepared the people you want, and the military uniform has also been prepared, this is the detailed address and property situation of each palace and Baylor, please take a look!" "I'm not going to be blind, you will participate in the whole process of tomorrow's operation!" "Overseer, it's time to tell me the answer!" "Yuan Shikai wants to ??????。 this time in Beijing" Ge Yunfei gave a detailed account of the situation.

"Overseer, Yuan Shikai's move is insidious, obviously to keep you by his side and entrust you with important tasks, but in fact, he wants to deprive you of control of the Shandong Independent Division. However, it is difficult to say whether Mr. Wu's strategy will work, and whether this move has aroused Yuan Shikai's greater suspicion? “

"This time I came to the capital, and the foreplay was prepared. Deliberately humiliating Cao Kun and snubbing the generals of the Beiyang system has already aroused their strong dissatisfaction. If the Manchu nobles and civil officials sue me in front of Yuan Shikai, I am afraid that Yuan will not be able to keep me if he wants to. You go and prepare, and tomorrow morning we will get moving. “

The next morning, Aunt Jiu proposed to visit the Summer Palace, Ge Yunfei shirked on the grounds of official business, in order not to let Aunt Jiu be too disappointed, he asked Wen Qing to accompany him, and he just got out.

Soon, two black sedans were embraced by 30 fierce cavalrymen and came to the gate of the North Mansion of Prince Houhaiol, and Ge Yunfei got out of the car in a military suit at Shan Feng. "Overseer, this is the mansion of Prince Alcohol's mansion, take him first." Shan Feng said this and took out his camera, this advanced camera was purchased from Germany and used exclusively by the Intelligence Bureau.

Looking at the five main entrances lined up, Ge Yunfei said with great interest: "According to records, this palace was originally Mingzhu's mansion, and was later occupied by He Shen. King Alcohol originally lived in the South Mansion, and the North Mansion was later expanded. Since Emperor Guangxu was born in Nanfu and became a latent mail, the alcohol king had to move out, so there was a northern mansion. “

At this time, Zaifeng came out in a panic when he heard the news, "Long Yang, alcohol prince!" Tang suddenly disturbed it into respect," Ge Yunfei clenched his fists. "In the lower eye, this general looks a little familiar?" "This official is Ge Yunfei, the overseer of Shandong?" "It turned out that General Ge was here, disrespectful, disrespectful!" Zaifeng was shocked when he heard this, and thought that it was definitely not a good thing for this evil star to come here. "If General Ge can come to the Humble House, he will make the Humble House shine, General, please!" Jae-feng snorted hard.

"Prince Alcohol, if the palace is a humble house, the courtyard in Beijing is a kennel!" Zaifeng is a stopper. "Lord Wang, don't mind if you're kidding." "General Ge is temperamental and humorous!" Zaifeng returned to normalcy.

When the group entered the mansion, Shan Feng ordered his subordinates to guard the gate, and followed with a few guards. "When you enter the house, you cut the phone line immediately, understand?" Singlet told his subordinates. After the guests and hosts sat down, Ge Yunfei found that Zaifeng's spirit was not increased, and his face was even older. Ge Yunfei discussed: In order to maintain the purity of the Manchu blood, the Qing court then caused the blood relationship to become closer and closer, so the "degradation" of the Manchu nobles was very serious, and the offspring became more and more ugly. Take the alcohol prince in front of him as an example, although he is only in his 20s, his facial features do not match, and his eyes are slender and he seems to never wake up. The hereditary prince is nothing more than a noble birth.

Seeing that Ge Yunfei observed that he was silent, Zaifeng said in a little panic in his heart: "General Ge's sudden visit to the Mansion must not have been a whim?" "What the prince said is extremely true, since he is so outspoken, the official is here to turn his fate." Fate? "Zaifeng is confused." Lord Wang, the Republic of China is about to be born, the republic is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and Vientiane is renewed and all kinds of waste are waiting to be revived. Everyone has the obligation to contribute to the new country, and the prince is rich and rich, does he take the lead in donating silver taels? ”

The air seemed to freeze, and suddenly tense, "You???, this is naked blackmail!" Zai Fengqi's face was pale and inarticulate.

"Blackmail? Is the prince mistaken, even if the Manchu Qing does not announce his abdication, he will definitely step down. It was wise to announce the abdication, and it avoided the bloodshed of the Manchu bloodstream and the destruction of human life. I think about how the Qing court treated the rebels in the first place, and how many people with lofty ideals were killed by you. The republican meaning is to form a big family of the Chinese nation. It means that the Han, Manchu, Mongolian, Tibetan and other ethnic groups living in this land should live in harmony in the future and jointly build our beautiful homeland. ”

"General Ge, since this is the case, isn't such a move the opposite?" "Lord, don't forget, history will not be forgotten, and the crimes you have committed will not be erased. To put it bluntly, I am helping you, you take the initiative to donate money and materials to atone for the sins you have committed, to avoid anyone looking for trouble for you, please think twice? Zaifeng knew in his heart that this reason was high-sounding, and it was 100% Yuan Shikai's attention: "General Ge, since you have made it clear, how much money do I need to donate?" "It's all up to the prince's will!"

Zaifeng gritted his teeth and said, "I donate 500,000 taels, and there is no more." "Good! The prince understands the righteousness and is commendable! Please rest assured, I promise that no one will come to harass you again! Zaifeng was deeply surprised, and couldn't help but regret that he had reported a lot. The housekeeper took the silver ticket and handed it to Ge Yunfei for a moment, and Shan Feng raised the camera and pressed the shutter. "Lord Wang, tomorrow your good deeds will be reported, let's go to King Rong's Mansion and say goodbye!"

Seeing Ge Yunfei and the others leaving, Zaifeng hurriedly called to report the news, but there was no sound on the phone. "Lord Wang, did you send someone to report the news?" Humane. Zaifeng shook his head and sat on the chair, feeling panicked.

Next is the Rong Wang's Mansion, the Qing Prince's Mansion (Yixuan), the Rui Prince's Mansion, the Nawang Mansion, the Eldest Princess's Mansion, the Keller Monarch's Mansion, the Taobeile Mansion, etc., and it was already dark after walking in a circle.

After dark, in a courtyard diagonally opposite No. 33 Shida Hutong (where the future Union Hospital was located), torches were lit and a box in the middle of the field was filled with silver. Ge Yunfei Yu Shan Feng seemed to be waiting for someone. "The Overseer, today is a great one, with a total of 5,500,000 taels of silver raised. The silver ticket is 4.5 million taels, and the fixed silver is 1 million taels. As soon as Shan Feng's voice fell, the sound of horses' hooves was heard outside.

I saw Cao Kun leading a group of soldiers roaring. "General Ge, you said that there is a major military situation, what happened?" Cao Kunfei dismounted. "Brother Cao, don't be impatient, look at what this is?" Ge Yunfei led Cao Kun to the box, and the white silver filled dozens of boxes. "Where did the silver come from," Cao Kun's eyes suddenly glowed blue, and his eyes widened in surprise. "Brother Cao, these pieces of silver were donated by the princes, and Lord Yuan didn't know about it, and it was completely the subordinates' own opinions." "You're so daring!"

"Brother Cao, in order for your lord to ascend to the throne of the president, the lower officials should be like this. This is 1 million taels of silver, and this is 4.5 million taels of silver. "What do you mean by telling me?" "This silver is very important to Lord Yuan's foothold, and it must be protected. I know that Brother Cao is also a teacher in Beijing, and he has worked hard. You can keep this fraction of 500,000 taels, and I will declare to the outside world that the prince has donated a total of 5 million taels of silver, and it will be reported tomorrow. "Brother Ge, how embarrassing is this!" Brother Cao, I know that you have a problem with me, and this is the right to make amends for my brother. ”

"Brother Ge is bold, contemptible is a rough person, if you can use Cao in the future, you will do your best to help." Cao Kun was simple-minded, and immediately released his previous suspicions, and Ma turned his war into a jade silk. "Brother Cao, the silver will be handed over to you!" "Please rest assured, Brother Ge, there will be no shortage of money." Cao Kun suddenly gained benefits, so he naturally treated Ge Yunfei differently. Ge Yunfei didn't go back to No. 33, he knew that Yuan Shikai would look for him all over the world. On the 33rd, Yuan Shikai came back from Bauhinia City with a gloomy face, and Yang Du asked, "My lord, how is the situation?" ”

"Those old and young people are all suing the Queen Mother, Ge Yunfei's tricks are clever, and he does not use force to force them to donate voluntarily. The matter has come to this point, and the Queen Mother also thinks that it is not necessary to stir up the people. In front of the Queen Mother, I promise that such incidents will not happen again in the future, and Ge Yunfei will be dealt with seriously. However, I am afraid that if the ministers find out about this, they will think that I am behind the scenes, and they will make a big fuss. At this time, the chief guard came in to report, and Cao Kun asked to see him.

After listening to Cao Kun's report, Yuan Shikai ordered Cao Kun to be optimistic about the silver, and ordered Ge Yunfei to be brought in immediately. Soon the chief of the guard hurriedly came back to report: "My lord, Ge Yunfei is not in the mansion!" "Send someone to find Ge Yunfei immediately!" The chief of the guard was ordered to leave.

"My lord, Ge Yunfei is deliberately evasive. Xia Guan speculated that he brought a camera for the purpose of publishing in the newspaper and ruling out the suspicion of adults. Since the prince is a voluntary act, as soon as he sees the newspaper tomorrow, someone will definitely praise the righteous deeds of the Manchu nobles, and the adults need not worry. "I know that Ge Yunfei is raising reserves for the issuance of new currency in the capital. But as soon as the wind opens, how can it be done? Ge Yunfei is too young, and the old man has worked hard in vain. ”

Yuan Shikai walked a few steps on the ground and said: "This matter must be resolved, tomorrow you inform Ge Yunfei, and immediately go back to Shandong to face the wall and think about it." Declare to the outside world that his mistakes are unforgivable, and read that he made mistakes for the country to see the after-effects, "My lord, you don't see him!" "Let me say something when we meet, he has 10,000 reasons to deal with it, so why don't you want to give him a medal."

Yang Du knew that Ge Yunfei would not make such a low-level mistake, obviously because he didn't want to stay in the capital, so he made such a decision. However, the mouth of eating people is short, and the hands of people are soft. Yang Du said with virtue on his lips: "My lord, this is fine." Ge Yunfei was like a fish in water with the Germans, as long as he was restricted from expanding the troops, the overall situation of the first division would be completely unknown, and the adults would not have to worry. ”

The next day, sure enough, the Beijing Daily published the news of the prince's donation of silver taels, especially the photos were more convincing. The newspaper specially praised the high style and brightness of the princes, and let the princes who had blood eat coptis dumbly, and they couldn't say anything about their suffering. This move not only blocked the mouths of the Manchu nobles, but also blocked the mouths of the ministers. What Yuan Shikai was worried about was that it would be great if his generals did the same. Therefore, Yuan Shikai had to deal with Ge Yunfei, and the best way to punish him was to let him return to Shandong and continue to be an overseer.

On this day, in the Wangfujing Sihai Restaurant, Yang Du practiced for Ge Yunfei. "Brother Yang, I didn't expect to make such a big trouble for Lord Yuan, and the lower officials were uneasy." "Brother Ge, you did it on purpose, Lord Yuan didn't see it, but he couldn't hide it from my eyes." Ge Yunfei was stunned for a moment and said, "Brother Yang, the lower officials are loyal. "I know you don't want to stay in the capital, but you can only use this trick once, remember my words!" "Brother Yang knows me, but he can't hide it, it's really helpless to make this decision, and the lower officials really don't want to stay in the capital."

"Brother Ge, when you are leaving, you should warn you not to expand the army without permission, this is a big taboo. It doesn't matter if it's anything else, and you have to go all out to mint new coins. "Brother Yang, the words are all in the wine, so I won't say words of thanks. In the future, if there is any difficulty, the brothers will repay each other. "Each other, each other!"
