Wang Yongan looked He Xie up and down, the more he looked at it, the more he liked it, the more he admired it, and he couldn't help but nodded, and he had the urge to take it under his account. But Wang Yongan also knows how to understand this person, this person has no position, he can betray Yuan Shikai today, and he can betray him Wang Yongan tomorrow, so he needs something to trap him, so he took the opportunity to say: "You betrayed the president, aren't you afraid that you will be killed by Zhao Bingjun, the Minister of Internal Affairs, after you go back?" ”

"Maybe you don't know yet, Zhao Bingjun will die soon." He Xie smirked.

"Zhao Bingjun will die?" Wang Yongan pretended to be surprised, of course he knew that Zhao Bingjun would die, and he was ordered to be poisoned by Yuan Shikai this year, and he worked hard to plan his life for Yuan Shikai, but he didn't expect to be killed by Yuan Shikai with a glass of poisoned wine.

He Xie said with a smile: "Before I left Beijing, I personally heard that the president exempted Zhao Bingjun from the order of Minister of Internal Affairs, but do you know how many unpleasant things Zhao Bingjun has done to the president?" Zhao Bingjun's dismissal means that he has lost his favor, but he has too many secrets of the president, so if he is alive, the president will not be able to sleep. ”

Wang Yongan held his chin and said half-loudly: "Okay, but if you reveal the news to me, I'm afraid you won't be able to explain it to the president, right?" ”

He Xie laughed: "This is not necessarily, I think that a small person like me is not worthy of you betraying me, and then telling the president my news one by one, and openly tearing up his face with the president." So I guess you will not betray me, and what I say to you today will certainly not reach the ears of the great president, so what danger can I have? ”

Wang Yongan sighed: "Witty as you, I am Xiao Zhuge and you are Xiao Jia Xu." ”

"Awards, awards." He Xie arched his hand and smiled, "I'm just a little Jia Xu, I'm just a wall grass, the president is windy, I naturally want to fall to him, you won't blame me." ”

"I don't blame you, the gentleman is not standing under the dangerous wall." Wang Yongan smiled faintly, he took a sip of tea, and suddenly said: "But Advisor He, there is one thing that may disappoint you, and your discord plan may not work." I'm sorry, but will you be penalized for that? ”

"Why do you see failure?" He Xie said curiously, "If you make me admit defeat, you have to let me lose convincingly." Since Yun Shuai knows that I am smart, I should know that smart people are not easy to be deceived. ”

Wang Yongan nodded and said: "I will naturally let you lose convincingly, but I want to make a bet with you, if you are convinced, how about working for me?" ”

He explained: "Let me be convinced? What if I were a dead duck with a hard mouth? I'm just not convinced? ”

Wang Yongan smiled: "You will be convinced, because you are a smart person, and smart people will do smart things." Then he suddenly shouted loudly: "Li Jiling, come out, you heard what you said just now, right?" ”

"Yes, I heard you."

He Xie looked at a person walking in outside the door in surprise, Admiral Li Shirui, who was standing in front of Wang Yongan in shame at this time, knelt on the ground with a puff, and confessed: "I was wrong, Dashuai, I was really wrong." ”

Wang Yongan walked over, helped Li Shirui up, and said: "In the past, there was a story of general harmony, and now there is a story of general handsome peace, and the past will not be mentioned again." ”

Li Shirui shook his head and said, "No, I was wrong, I was wrong...... I didn't expect that I thought I was extremely smart, but I became a sword in the hands of others, and I was almost used to stab the handsome in the back. I was always complacent, underestimating the world, but now I find that I am the most confused person. He is right, I, the Jiangbei Tigers, after Yuan Shikai is transferred, our Jiangbei system is the one who suffers the most, and I don't know where the bones are buried. ”

"Well, as the so-called brothers work together to break the gold, even if our brothers in Jiangbei feel that it is unfair, they cannot be provoked by outsiders." Wang Yongan said in a deep voice, "Today you heard that Yuan Shikai's purpose is not to love your talent, but to use you to provoke the Jiangbei faction, he makes you a traitor in the eyes of everyone, and makes you a contemporary Lu Bu." But fortunately, this kind of mistake was not made in time, and our Jiangbei Department has survived the biggest crisis. ”

At this time, He Xie couldn't help but applaud and praised: "It is worthy of Yangzhou Xiao Zhuge who is unparalleled in calculation, I didn't find General Li outside the door." Alas, I'm afraid my efforts have been in vain - and my winnings have gone down the drain. But I'm convinced, but my mouth is gone, what can you do with me? ”

Wang Yongan said: "Liu Tong, bring it in." ”

"Yes." Liu Tong also walked in, carrying a box, and opened the box after putting it on the table, and then the contents of the box suddenly shocked He Jie, making him stunned, and turned over the teacup in his hand.

"Advisor He, in fact, your bonus has not been lost." Wang Yongan walked to the side of the box, patted the contents of it, and asked with a smile: "Well, Yuan Shikai can't give you a bonus, how about I give it to you?" Here's $50,000, and if you are convinced and work for me, the $50,000 will be yours. And I'll let you get two salaries, eat the east and eat the west, what do you think? ”

He Xie suddenly widened his eyes, and was a little dizzy by the huge happiness, for a person like him, it is not early to be practical, as long as there are enough benefits, he can buy him, and the 50,000 US dollars are converted into 80,000 taels of silver, and now in Jingshi, the price of a Baylor Mansion is only 20,000 taels of silver, and only this 50,000 US dollars can allow him to live this life in style. So He Jiebao said without hesitation: "Fifty thousand dollars, what do you want me to do?" ”

"I want you as a person." Wang Yongan said lightly.

He Xie immediately said: "Don't say that you want me as a person, you want my wife, and I will also give you both hands." ”

Wang Yongan couldn't cry or laugh, and scolded: "Your uncle, what do I want your wife to do?" I asked you to go back to show your merit to Yuan Shikai and continue to let Li Shirui serve as the commander of the 17th Division, what about you, you can also get a bonus from Yuan Shikai, why not? ”

Li Shirui immediately shouted: "I can't do it, Dashuai, are you trying to get rid of me?" ”

Wang Yongan turned around and smiled: "No, you have to do this, I am not driving you away, but for the sake of the Jiangbei system, you need to sacrifice yourself now." Because only if you are the commander of the 17th Division, we can successfully take Sichuan Province, and I will help you control Sichuan Province, which is not much less labor-saving than your plan to occupy Sichuan? ”

Li Shirui quickly understood, but his face was bitter, it seemed that he still had to be the commander of the Sichuan Army, and people would poke his back and scold him as a traitor.

He Xie laughed and applauded: "Your trick is called a chain plan, right?" ”

Wang Yongan shook his head and said: "No, this is called a plan, he Yuan Shikai used the commander of the Sichuan army to separate me and Ji Ling, I will eat his Sichuan, give me such a big piece of fat, if I don't eat it, wouldn't I be sorry for my father-in-law?" ”
