In the reception hall of the Nine Gates Admiral's Mansion, everyone is now telling the truth. The tea bowl in Nie Shicheng's hand on the side never poured into his mouth.

Now he is looking at his daughter standing beside him with a puzzled expression.

His daughter actually called the person opposite handsome. This young man is handsome.

Such a young person can be called a handsome, there is no such thing as the Great Qing Kingdom, if there is, then there is only one, Liaodong Liu Jun.

And his daughter stayed at Liaodong Military Medical University for four years, and for four years, Liu Jun basically attended every year's graduation party. He didn't think his daughter would admit it.

But then again, now that Liaodong and the imperial court are in full swing, Liu Jun, as the commander of Liaodong, should not be suspicious of coming here to find death.

"Girl, you...... You say he'...... Is he Liu Jun? Nie Shicheng pointed to the person who was sitting opposite and did not change his color. The voice was full of disbelief.

"Yes, Dad, this is the handsome fourth lady Zheng Yiqian, and this is Zhong Lin, the director of the Liaodong Intelligence Bureau. They all attended our graduation party. Nie Shicheng's daughter blinked and nodded affirmatively.

There will be no mistake, although Nie Shicheng has not seen these people, but the names of these two people are very clear to him.

Well, I was worried that I couldn't catch you, but you came again.

With a bang, Nie Shicheng suddenly fell down the cup in his hand and turned his head violently: "Someone." ”

From outside the door, a few soldiers with Mauser rifles and waist knives rushed in and surrounded the people opposite.

"Dad, what are you doing, you." Nie Shicheng's daughter rushed forward at once, retreating and surrounding the person who picked up the fan.

"Elder Nie, since you know my identity, I think you should also know that I won't come here until I'm fully prepared. I think you still want to think about it, if something happens here, will Beijing City be left without chickens and dogs? ”

Threat, this is indeed a threat, but Nie Shicheng didn't dare to do it, he knew that he had never dealt with Liu Jun, but he knew that Liu Jun had always been a person who said the same, he wanted to say that the chicken and the dog would not stay, that is, the little chick would not have a chance to live, and he would be said to be a person.

Taking a deep breath, Nie Shicheng thought for a moment, and suddenly waved his hand helplessly, signaling everyone to go out.

"What do you want to do?" Seeing that everyone had walked out, Nie Shicheng looked at Liu Jun, who was sitting there calmly.

Indeed, Nie Shicheng's daughter is not wrong, these three people are indeed Liu Jun, Zhong Lin and Zheng Yiqian.

On September 26, after Hao Cixi and Guangxu left the capital, Liu Jun, who was in Liaodong, suddenly asked all kinds of armies to start gathering in Beijing, which was used to increase the pressure on Nie Shicheng in Beijing and let him open the door. But after waiting for a few days, Nie Shicheng not only did not fight, but fought with the Eighth Army on the outskirts of Miyun, Liu Jun wanted to transfer troops to destroy Beijing City, but under Zheng Yiqian's reminder, Liu Jun suppressed the anger in his heart at that time, and after thinking about it for a day, he wanted to go to Beijing in person. Meet Nie Shi Chengxiao with righteousness. Let his Nie Shi become the lives of the people in Beijing and tens of thousands of soldiers in Beijing.

This plan suddenly made the Lushun generals who were mainly Li and Wu Datong really want to stand up and oppose it, but Liu Jun had made up his mind, and the king of heaven and Lao Tzu could not persuade him, Li He had no choice but to agree, and let the armored cruiser Toad escort Liu Jun to Tianjin after landing, and then under the escort of Feng Guozhang, he came to Beijing.

Originally, Feng Guozhang meant to mobilize a battalion of troops, but Liu Jun refused.

Liu Jun felt that it was difficult to do things when there were many people, but it was easier to do things with just three people, so he asked Feng Guozhang to go back, and he took Zhong Lin and Zheng Yiqian to Beijing.

"What can I do, of course, I'm here for Beijing." Liu Jun was also not polite, immediately put down the teacup in his hand, stood up and walked to Nie Shicheng's side: "I'm here for the letter." “

Letter, Nie Shicheng frowned. Yes, I do have a letter in my hand, this letter was written by Li Hongzhang himself, and the content on it is sprinkled with thousands of words, but it can be summed up in a few words, that is, to get out of the capital.

I was scared when I received this telegram. Of course, he knew what the imperial court had done over the years, but the patriotic thoughts of the loyal monarch made him in a dilemma, and the imperial court was still there at that time, and he didn't dare to print it directly, so he put the cement pipe into the "Art of War", and now when he saw Liu Jun mentioning the letter, he knew that Liu Jun was here to persuade him to surrender.

"Needless to say, the old man, as a minister of the imperial court, is favored by the emperor, how can he surrender to you."

Nie Shicheng glanced at Liu Jun, and immediately waved and said, I hope Liu Jun won't be talking.

Damn, Liu Jun cursed in his heart, he didn't expect Nie Shicheng to be so difficult.

"Head, what to do, this old thing is not easy to handle." Zhong Lin on the side lowered his head and muttered.

I don't believe it, you, Nie Shicheng, as a Han and a minister, will not care about the life and death of the people in Beijing, and will let tens of thousands of soldiers die in vain.

"Nie Lao, I just want to ask, is the people important or the emperor important, do you want to be loyal to the country, loyal to the people, or loyal to an emperor who only knows how to sell the country for glory. Think about your old commander, Li Hongzhang, how loyal he is. ”

With a cold snort, Liu Jun turned around and stood up, picked up the fan beside him, and immediately walked out of the door: "I'm in the Drunken Immortal Building, you want to understand and come to me." ”

Looking at the back of Liu Jun leaving, Nie Shicheng suddenly froze and didn't move.

"Head, if Nie Shicheng doesn't make a decision, Cixi is going to enter Shanxi, will we be here all the time?"

In Liu Jun's room in the Drunken Immortal Building, Zhong Lin looked at Liu Jun who was sitting in a daze on the chair, and stepped forward to remind him.

In the past few days, the washing and washing out of the capital has been non-stop, and it has passed Handan, and left a town of troops in Handan, and it has come to block the road of the Liaodong Army to the west.

He received information that the third town stationed in Handan had not only made arrangements in Handan, but also the Tieliang Department of the Qing army retreating from Yutian had also arrived in Handan, and now the strength of Handan had reached almost 20,000 troops, and there were still foreign troops entering, and he was worried that Liu Jun had been focusing on Beijing and Beijing, which would affect the plan of the Liaodong Army to go south, and even more so the plan to advance westward.

Raising his head slightly, Liu Jun glanced at Zhong Lin on the side: "Don't worry, I believe he will definitely come to me." ”

In the study of the Nine Gates Admiral's Mansion, the night was already very deep, but the light in Nie Shicheng's study was still on, not only that, but now in Nie Shicheng's hand, there was also a letter, this letter was the letter written by Li Hongzhang to himself at that time.

Now that the letter had been placed on the desk, Nie Shicheng, who was walking back and forth in the room, would turn his head to look at the letter on the desk from time to time.

After Liu Jun left, Nie Shicheng kept thinking about Liu Jun's words, that is, in the end, the imperial court was still loyal to the people.

He had never heard of this sentence, but the first time he heard it, he couldn't get back to his senses.

"Dad, what are you doing, you don't sleep so late." Nie Shicheng's daughter, Nie Linlin, walked in with a bowl of ginseng soup in her hand.

Seeing that it was his daughter, Nie Shicheng put down his thoughts, immediately returned to the chair, and took the ginseng soup from his daughter's hand.

"Daughter, what do you think I should do?" After drinking, Nie Shicheng thought that his daughter had been away for so many years, and he must have his own opinions. He also wanted to hear what his daughter meant.

Nie Linlin smiled slightly, he knew what his father was asking. Put down what you have in your hands. sat down beside Nie Shicheng all of a sudden.

"Dad, I don't know about you, but I know one thing, in Liaodong, in Outer Mongolia and the people in Northeast China, their lives are very good, every year, they will automatically go to the street to gather on the street on the birthday of the handsome to celebrate the birthday of the handsome, but what about the imperial court, you have seen the people who voluntarily blessed the emperor.

"Moreover, Dashuai has always been loyal to the people, and this time he came here alone, I don't think he wants the people of Beijing to lose their lives in vain."

understood, when Nie Shicheng saw his daughter's statement, he immediately nodded, walked to the letter, picked up the letter, and looked through it carefully.
