Chapter 561: After the Famous Minister
The girl raised her head, revealing her stunning face, like the colorful glow of the sunset, which attracted the attention of all men in an instant, Wang Yongan couldn't help but be stunned, and said secretly in her heart: "What a wonderful beauty, she really has the appearance of a shy flower in the closed moon, and she is three points more beautiful than the four beauties of the Republic of China." Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 He noticed a few people in the distance and asked, "Who are they?" ”
"They are from Wanshouyuan." The girl's voice was as brittle as a yellow warbler, a little similar to the doll voice of a certain Lin model in later generations, which made the men around her moved, and said in her heart Why didn't such a stunning woman ask for help from herself. The girl continued: "I escaped from Wanshouyuan, and they were in hot pursuit, so I took advantage of the chaos to flee into the Jingshi Hotel, thinking that they didn't dare to go wild where foreigners were going to be, but they didn't expect ......"
Wang Yongan was puzzled and said, "What is Wanshouyuan?" ”
At this time, Huo Diange and the others hurriedly ran down from the upper floor, their sharp eyes swept over the diners, and everyone was shocked by the murderous aura in his eyes, and hurriedly lowered his head, he walked to Wang Yongan's side, apologized and said, "Yun Shuai, we are late." ”
"It's not too late, it's not too late." Wang Yongan replied with a smile, he was very satisfied with the reaction of Huo Diange and the other Jiangbei Army guard battalions, from the woman to their side to Huo Diange and the others coming over, the difference was only one minute, so it could be concluded that there were people sitting in all corners of the Jingshi Hotel. Although the Jingshi Hotel was opened by the French, the French were also afraid that something would happen to Yunshuai Wang Yongan in the Jingshi Hotel, so they gave them great convenience, except that they were not allowed to bring guns in, and all the guards carried cold weapons to protect Wang Yongan's safety.
When the girl saw the menacing Huo Diange, she was so frightened that she didn't dare to speak, so Wang Yongan asked: "By the way, Xiuting, you are a native of Zhili who has been walking the rivers and lakes for a long time, you should know what kind of place this Wanshouyuan is, right?" ”
Huo Diange said: "My subordinates know a little bit about it, this Wanshou Garden was originally a garden built for the Empress Dowager Cixi outside the Forbidden City, and there are strange things from all over the world. In her later years, the Empress Dowager Cixi often watched the inventions of Western countries in the Wanshou Garden, and if she thought it was good, she allowed this thing to pass in the Qing Dynasty, such as bicycles, trains and automobiles, which were first displayed in the Wanshou Garden, and then shown to the stubborn and immortal princes, so the Wanshou Garden was very famous at the beginning. ”
Wang Yongan nodded, this is the first time I have heard that it has always been rumored that the Qing Dynasty closed the country, Cixi ignorantly rejected the progress of Western science and technology, and refused to learn from China's hope, but now it seems that Cixi is not rejecting Western progress, but more conservatively accepting Western affairs. It's just that Cixi didn't know that the people's acceptance of Western civilization was much easier than hers, so there were calls for reform from various ministers, and there was also a change in the law.
Huo Diange said: "Later, because of the failure of the Wuxu Reform, the Imperial Party was punished, and some people thought that this Wanshou Garden was also a product of the Imperial Party, so it was destroyed. When the Gengzi Kingdom changed, the Eight-Nation Alliance Army entered the Beijing Division, and some ruffians and foreign soldiers took the opportunity to run in and loot the finances, and then said that they burned Wanshouyuan. After the Gengzi Kingdom subsided, a prince of Beijing bought land and rebuilt Wanshouyuan, which was then obtained by big businessmen several times. Nowadays, Wanshouyuan has become the largest green building and opera garden in Beijing, comparable to Yangzhou Hundred Gardens. ”
Wang Yongan said: "Oh, so Wanshouyuan is just a green building, but it's also interesting." He lowered his head and asked the woman, "What's going on?" ”
The woman responded: "My lord Mingjian, the little woman's name is Su Ke'er, and her ancestor is Su Chongguang, a famous minister of the Wuxu Reform, after the failure of the Wuxu Reform, my grandfather was hit hard and died depressed. After my grandfather died, my father was devastated by his cowardice, and the family fell from there. Someone else coveted my family's property and arranged a crime for my father, and in the end my family was sentenced to confiscate the property and send it to the army. My aunt's family spent money to save our family, and they have been living in Datong, Shanxi Province to do business with my aunt's family. Unexpectedly, three years ago, a thief plundered my aunt and my family's caravan, my parents were killed, and I was also robbed by thieves. The thief saw that I was born...... Peugeot, a few thieves snatched me up, and their contest eventually became infighting, and I took the opportunity to escape. Later, I fled to a deserted temple, and when I woke up, I found that I had been sold into a green house. Later, I was brought to Manjuen by them, saying that I would inevitably become an Oiran in the future, and they kept training me. Yesterday a Japanese businessman paid a lot of money to buy my exit, and I broke his head with a wine bottle while he was drunk, and escaped from Manjuen, and hid until this morning, when I met an adult. My lord, please help me, I don't want to go to Manjuen, and I don't want to serve any Japanese. ”
Liu Tong couldn't help but say: "Actually, after being a famous minister, he has a lot of connections with Yun Shuai." ”
Bai Dequan said cautiously: "Isn't it too coincidental...... A few? ”
Wang Yong'an is strange, it is indeed too coincidental, but listening to the woman's accent, it seems to have a Shanxi accent and a Zhili accent, it can be seen that she was floating around and had no fixed place when she was a child, and although Su Chongguang is not a celebrity such as the Six Gentlemen of Wuxu, she is also a famous official in Zhili, if you check carefully, you can still find out her life experience.
If it is true, Wang Yongan saved her today, and it is also a help to the former Wuxu after changing the law to a famous minister, if it is fake, I am afraid that I don't know her purpose. Wang Yongan nodded and said, "Liu Tong, go and call those Wanshouyuan thugs over." ”
"Yes."
The thugs of Wanshouyuan soon came, and a thin middle-aged man with round-bottomed sunglasses, holding a civilization staff, wearing a polite and big braid, walked over, his face was full of cynicism, and he arched his hands and said stupidly: "I've seen Yun Shuai." ”
"You know me?" Wang Yongan looked at this underworld leader in the late Qing Dynasty with interest, it seems that this person must be quite powerful, otherwise he would not be wearing sunglasses in front of him to act as a big man.
"Of course I know, Yun Shuai Wang Jingyun, everyone in the world knows that the deeds of you leading the 200,000 Jiangbei Army to defeat the 100,000 Japanese Imperial Army can be described as known to the whole world, and it has earned us Chinese a lot of face." This person sat on a chair and looked like a paralyzed statue of Beijing, which was very indecent.
"You sit down for me." Huo Diange walked over, took off this person's sunglasses and threw them on the ground, and then stomped on them, "Being so disrespectful in front of Yun Shuai, are you tired of crooked?" ”
Instead of getting angry, this man sneered: "Yun Shuai is so majestic, aren't you afraid of the king's law when you beat the people of Jingshi on the street?" ”
Wang Yongan couldn't help but smile: "You tell me about the royal law, well, I am the one who formulated the royal law, come, tell me what royal law you want?" ”
The man got up at this time, looked at Wang Yongan carefully, and wondered if he had some support, but when he thought that the owner behind him was Japanese, he shuddered again.
