Chapter 124: Preparing to Save People
Alice and Gu Yili run a shop close to the British Concession, and Ali Guo escorted the two sisters away, and no one could stop them. The person who reported the news arrived at the Daotai Mansion and reported the news to Li Zhen.
Immediately, Li Zhen invited Liu Taiping to the study.
Li Zhen's expression was serious, and he said in a deep voice: "Sir, you already know about Alice and Gu Yili's business. The two of them are in business, and their daily income can reach thousands of taels of silver, which is quite expensive. Now that Ali Guo is taking the soldiers to rob people directly, what can you do to get them back. ”
Liu Taiping said: "The two foreign women were originally the British consuls, and it is reasonable for him to snatch people back." Besides, Alice and Gu Yili are in the concession, you can't break in with troops, it's hard to save them. ”
From the bottom of his heart, Liu Taiping didn't want Li Zhen to save Sister Alice.
First, these two women are red-faced and troublesome, and they are easy to affect Li Zhen; Second, the two daughters were foreigners and had a relationship with Ali Guo, which led to Liu Taiping's rejection of the two daughters.
Liu Taiping saw that Li Zhen still didn't say anything, and said: "The British consul snatched the two women, there may be two reasons. One reason is that when you don't cooperate, you want to get the twins back. Another reason is to force adults to save people, set up a Hongmen banquet, and take the opportunity to deal with adults. Things are in crisis, and adults can't take risks easily. ”
Liu Taiping was bitter and worried that Li Zhen would be angry.
Li Zhen said: "Mr. is right, but people must be saved." ”
Liu Taiping said in a deep voice: "Ah Liguo has made it clear that he has bad intentions and can't go. ”
Li Zhen said in a deep voice: "Sir, today's incident is about Sister Alice, but it exposes my incompetence as a Shanghai Daotai. The British and French concessions appeared in Shanghai, and once people were brought into the concessions, we immediately lost our strength and could not control the situation. At the end of the day, the British and French consuls had to be settled. Otherwise, we will not be able to control Shanghai, but we will still have a country within a state. ”
Liu Taiping said: "Foreigners have to deal with, but not now. ”
Li Zhen said resolutely: "It is better to take advantage of this opportunity to make a move sooner rather than later." ”
After a pause, Li Zhen said again: "Since Mr. can't think of a way for the time being, I'll go to the American consul Ma Hui." At the beginning, Ma Hui said that he would cooperate with me to get rid of Xu Naizhao, and now he can use Ma Hui to contain Britain and France, and then wait for the opportunity to rescue the two daughters. ”
Liu Taiping sighed and said, "My lord, there is a way for old decay. ”
"Oh, what's the solution?"
Li Zhenjian raised his eyebrows, revealing a look of joy.
Liu Taiping said: "Ali Guo has clearly set up a Hongmen banquet, but no matter whether the adults go or not, Ali Guo is beneficial. The old man thinks that adults can only wave their flags and shout, and cannot take the initiative to go. Therefore, the old man thinks that it should be ......, even if it is ......, when the matter is over, the adults can shirk the responsibility, and it is difficult for the British and French people to find excuses. Even if the two girls are rescued, they can also solve the big trouble in Shanghai. ”
"Good, good!"
Li Zhen stroked his palms again and again, revealing admiration.
Li Zhen looked at Liu Taiping's confident and calm face, and felt that the ancients were really not to be underestimated. Liu Taiping can't be an official, and his strategy is absolutely powerful. With such a strategist by his side, Li Zhen could be much easier.
The two finalized the plan and re-deduced it a few times before they were relieved.
……
Concession, British Consulate.
In the hall, the British Consul Allied sat at the head of the rectangular conference table, and not far away stood Alice and Gouley.
A smug look appeared in Ah Liguo's eyes, and he said with a smile: "You think that by following Li Zhen, you can get rid of me, but you don't know that I can arrest you back at any time." Now you're back, and you can't escape. In the consulates, you call the heavens and the earth not spiritual. But if you're willing to do something for me, how about I spare you? ”
"Phew!"
Alice spat and said, "Mean! Have the ability to fight with the general. ”
Gu Yili said: "My sister and I are arrested, and the general will definitely be on our side." ”
"Hahaha......"
Ali Guo laughed loudly and said, "No matter how bold Li Zhen is, does he dare to lead troops to break into the British Concession?" The concession was the place of the British Empire, and Li Zhen did not dare to bring troops here. Until now, you still think that Li Zhen will save you, and you are stupid. ”
After a pause, Ali Guo said again: "If Li Zhen enters the concession single-handedly and comes to the consulate alone, then he will never come back, and it will be impossible for him to leave." ”
At this time, Ali Guo was already planning to kill Li Zhen.
Pulling has no effect, and it is immediately Senleng's blade.
Alice said calmly: "Mr. Consul, you think too highly of the value of our sisters in the general's heart. If our sisters were favored, they would have been generals for a long time, but now nothing has happened. You robbed us, the general could not come, your plan fell through. ”
Gu Yili looked at Alice, her big eyes blinking, understanding Alice's intentions.
However, Gu Yili still hoped to save her.
Ali Guo's face was pale, and a faint green light like a wolf suddenly flashed in his eyes, staring at Gu Yili and Alice's chests up and down, and said, "Since Li Zhen doesn't come, it proves that you are worthless." It's good for me to take it back and use it for myself. Well, you haven't been following Li Zhen for a long time, and your bodies have developed so maturely, it's tempting! ”
"Ahh
Gu Yili exclaimed, and took a step back in fright.
Alice's eyes also flashed with a hint of panic, but she was not afraid.
Ali Guo looked at the expressions of the two with satisfaction, stood up suddenly, and slowly walked towards Alice, who was still calm. With a smile on his face, Ah Liguo said as he walked: "When I gave you to Li Zhen, my heart is like a knife!" It's great that you're back now, and you're still in good shape. It seems that God has not forsaken me. ”
Ali Guo walked up to Alice, stretched out his hand, and touched Alice's face.
"Smack!"
Alice slapped it out and landed it on Alikook's face.
Although the strength was not heavy, it immediately left a five-finger mark on Ali Guo's face.
Ali Guo didn't expect Alice to dare to resist, and the hand that touched Alice was no longer gentle, and with a slam wave, it was also a slap on Alice's face, causing Alice to fall to the ground. Gu Yili suddenly became anxious, and hurriedly squatted down to support Alice, and helped Alice up.
Ali Guo walked towards the two of them and said coldly, "Two cheap women, I'll play with you slowly." ”
At this moment, both Alice and Gu Yili were a little scared.
"Boom! Boom!! ”
Hurried footsteps were heard, and a figure quickly ran in.
The person who came was none other than the French consul Aitang. He glanced at Alice, who was lying on the ground and was injured, and then looked at Gu Yili, who was about to cry, frowned, waved his big hand, and ordered: "Take them down, so that they can be served, and they are not allowed to bully them." If I know someone with a clean mouth and hands, don't blame me for being rude. ”
The soldiers in the room did not move, but looked at Alikook, waiting for an answer.
Ali Guo knew that Ai Tang must have something important, so he nodded. The soldiers immediately took the two girls out, and Ali Guo asked, "Aitang, you came to the consulate in a hurry, did something big happen?" ”
