"The contents of this book "The Scream" are going to be typeset with movable type of the bookstore, but as the cover, we plan to use woodcut rubbing; I originally planned to go back and ask the Fang family lady to do it, since Miss Shen is here, why don't you do it for you? Among these people, Miss Shen, your words are the best. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info"

Wu Weiyang looked at Shen Zhaohe and proposed.

"Me?" Shen Zhaohe was stunned when he heard this, and said in surprise and joy, "Can I?" ”

"Little sister, don't be modest, you can't use your words, who dares to say that your own words can?"

Shen Zhaoao regained the tiredness on his face at this time, and said with a smile.

Early the next morning, He Changying felt that the swelling on her leg had almost disappeared, so she discussed with Xue Yingchun to go to the mass grave in the west of the city to worship her eldest brother Fang Boyuan, who only had one side.

He Changying's plan made Xue Yingchun slightly stunned, and the tears in a pair of pretty eyes poured out uncontrollably, which made He Changying feel ashamed that the original self seemed to be really not a thing.

I bought some yellow paper incense candles, a bottle of burning knife wine, a firecracker, and hired two rickshaws, and soon He Changying and Xue Yingchun went out of the west gate of the city and came to the Guhuai Sensen, the inaccessible cemetery in the west of the city.

A small new mound, with no tombstone and no other markings, is expected to be overgrown with vines and weeds by this time of the year.

Then, in the years, like a desolate grave around it, it became a paradise for foxes, hares, snakes, insects, rats and ants, and finally collapsed until all traces of annihilation disappeared.

Brother He, brother went first.

Eight days ago, on the execution ground in the rainstorm, Fang Boyuan's loud roar, combined with the rumbling thunder in his memory, seemed to still echo in He Changying's mind.

is such a man, he beat him back then, saw his child daughter-in-law, peeked at Xue Yingchun's beauty, exchanged birthday posts with him, and worshiped his brother.

Then he secretly damaged his body, so that he could not get up, and on the night of his wedding, he touched under his marriage bed, and tried to insult his woman.

instructed others to lure his younger brother to gamble and smoke, ruined the family business, and then took the desperate young couple to Jinmen to join the army.

It's not his own credit that he became the head of the horse team, it's Lu Tiejiao, a color stick, who eats 'loach noodles' every day, to get it.

In the end, he was involved on the Gao Sheng, but he was cut off by Wu Yuren, but he survived.

He didn't know a lot of things about this, even if Xue Yingchun knew it, he had been hiding it from him, otherwise when he was dying, he Fang Boyuan would not have shouted the sentence 'Brother He, brother went first'.

He Changying squatted on the grave, inserted incense candles, and played the fire sickle for a while, but he had no choice but to leave it to Xue Yingchun to do it for him.

Lighting the yellow paper, He Changying slowly burned it, but she didn't know what to say.

Xue Yingchun wept silently and poured the wine in front of the grave.

On August 11th, the weather was still hot in Jinmen, but this ancient tree mass grave was unprovoked shade, and the crows in the big trees were 'croaking', and the sea breeze blowing from the sea passed through the treetops with a 'whooshing' whistle.

"Bang Bang Bang-"

He Changying lit the firecrackers, put all the remaining yellow paper in the fire, stood up and walked away.

After taking a few steps forward, He Changying suddenly stopped, turned her body and turned her head to the deserted grave and said, "Big brother, I'm sorry." ”

"Wow-"

Only this sound, Xue Yingchun, who had been crying silently, finally couldn't help it, 'wow', cried loudly, rushed to He Changying's body and beat He Changying's chest with both hands, crying and shouting: "Why, why, why?" ”

He Changying hugged Xue Yingchun tightly in his arms, and let her lie on her chest and cry.

Jinmen, Zhili Governor's Mansion Xingtai Yamen.

There was a quiet silence in the Sibu Hall, and Li Hongzhang sat on the Taishi chair and closed his eyes to recuperate.

These days, Ye Zhichao's 5,000-strong army is still retreating from Pyongyang in a hurry.

The four-way army that entered the court one after another, especially Wei Rugui's way, harassed and stirred up all the way along the way, and he Li Hongzhang was numb to the impeachment post.

There is also the aftermath of the Gao Sheng, as well as the Japanese spy case that has been rumored to be boiling in the past few days, all of which have broken the heart of the world's No. 1 Governor Fu Cao.

Especially in this Japanese spy case, Ishikawa Wuyi, an Oriental spy, was actually arrested from Liu Di's house by the Jinmen City Defense Battalion, and the current street public opinion, fueled by some well-intentioned people, directly pointed the finger at his nephew Zhang Shiheng.

Xiang Zhuang dances the sword, which is intended for Pei Gong.

Li Hongzhang couldn't help but think of this allusion, which made him angry and funny, but more of a helplessness that was not understood by the world.

Li Hongzhang is now a very human minister, if necessary, how can he go to the little Dongyang eyebrows?

They deserve it!

is his nephew Zhang Shiheng, that is, the employment is unknown, and he was exploited by the Orientals.

Or is this the truth, as the nephew of the first governor of the Qing Dynasty, it is necessary to lick the little Oriental man's gutter?

The emperor is young and sharp, but after all, he has too little experience, and is easy to be encouraged by people with intentions, and now he is waiting for Lafayette to build a garden and completely raise his life.

I can't say that this thought is wrong, but I am too anxious, and it will be ugly when I am in a hurry.

As the emperor's teacher, Shuping didn't think about serving the country wholeheartedly, but he held on to the little grievances of the year, and he was in a dilemma everywhere in the household.

This time, the emperor shouted and beaten, Shuping's gang shouted and beaten, the Qingliu in the court shouted and beaten, and the entire people were also shouting and beating, but they didn't know what to take to fight the Orientals!

The military is dangerous, and it is natural to win the war, and there is no shame, but what if you lose?

Li Hongzhang didn't dare to think about it anymore, he only hoped that Ye Zhichao and Nie Shicheng could fight for Beiyang and firmly stick their heels in Pyongyang City, so that they could find Britain, France, Germany, and Russia to mediate.

There was a sound of footsteps outside, and inside was the whispered conversation between son-in-law Zhang Peilun and eldest son Jingyuan.

Li Hongzhang was overjoyed when he heard this, since Zhang Peilun blocked Jing from going to North Korea, the relationship between the two has been on the same footing, and it is the first time in the past two months that he has seen the two of them communicate in private.

"Nak."

"Father."

Seeing the two of them entering the Sibu Hall together, Li Hongzhang said with a smile: "What are you talking about, what is the news?" ”

"It's not any news, this morning the students of the Beiyang Naval Academy, the Telegraph Office, the Medical Hall, and the Bowen College all stopped classes and ran to the joint to distribute leaflets."

Li Jingyuan smiled and handed a piece of rice paper densely written with small characters in his hand to Li Hongzhang.

"Students don't do well in class and go to the street to hand out leaflets? It's a waste of school. ”

Hearing his eldest son say this, Li Hongzhang felt a little unhappy in his heart, but it was rare to see that his son-in-law and son had signs of releasing their suspicions, so he endured a faint unhappiness and picked up the tortoiseshell eyes on his table and began to look at them carefully.

"Heroic Soul Sacrifice", He Changying.

"He Changying?"

Although Li Hongzhang can be described as having a lot of opportunities, he still has a deep impression of the name a few days ago.

Because of this, He Changying said one thing, one thing that Li Hongzhang did not want to see: the Orientals actually signed the "Anglo-Japanese Treaty of Commerce and Navigation" with the British Empire.
