Now hearing that Zaitao couldn't understand Zhang Zhidong's words, Songpan could only think of an excuse to hope to be able to calm Zaitao's heart, and before he could speak, the two saw Zhang Zhidong running down the stairs with a roar. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

"Lord Nakado, who are you?" Seeing Zhang Zhidong running so quickly, Songpan was really worried that something would happen to him.

"Liaodong has taken the sword gate and closed it, it's great." Zhang Zhidong, who ran over, sat on the chair and gasped a few times, and handed a newspaper in his hand to the two people in front of him.

What the hell, this old thing is not confused, Liaodong Army is so happy to take the Jianmen Pass, I really don't know, what does this old guy think, seeing Zhang Zhidong say this, Zaitao frowned and thought in his heart.

Songpan was also taken aback by Zhang Zhidong's move, he didn't know what the Liaodong Army had to do with him when he took the Jianmen Pass.

Zhang Zhidong was indeed happy, and since he proposed to Li Hongzhang on the same day that he wanted to start negotiations again, Li Hongzhang directly told him that unless the Liaodong Army took the Jianmen Pass, nothing would be allowed to be discussed. This matter, after he came back, he has been holding it in his heart, and he has not talked about it to anyone, in his heart, how much he hopes that the imperial court can give up Jianmen, however, what he didn't expect is that after more than ten days, Jianmen Pass has no Tokyo, which has made Zhang Zhidong have begun to lose patience, and when he was about to write to the court in the hope of giving up Jianmen Pass, the newspaper recorded that the Liaodong Army had successfully taken Jianmen Pass.

Winning the Jianmen Pass means that Liaodong already has the key to negotiate with itself, which is a good thing.

"You don't know, Li Hongzhang said at the beginning that if you want to negotiate, you have to wait until the Liaodong Army takes the Jianmen Pass." Seeing that the two were puzzled, Zhang Zhidong said the answer.

Understood, according to this way, the sword gate is lost. Zaitao nodded, understanding Zhang Zhidong's crazy behavior just now.

"Report to the three adults, Chengdu sent an urgent telegram, hoping that we can discuss with Liaodong again and reopen negotiations." A guard walked over and handed a telegram to Zaitao.

Zaitao read the telegram twice, and then handed it to Zhang Zhidong, and after several people looked at it, they all fell into deep thought.

After a while, Zhang Zhidong, who was sitting next to him, laughed and roared, "I'll go." ”

Baoji, Wu Tingfang's temporary office location.

Li Hongzhang had already received an order from Beijing to go back a few days ago, and when he was leaving, Beijing handed over all the matters of negotiation with the imperial court to himself, and let himself handle the matters of negotiation with the imperial court.

"Uncle Wu, Zhang Zhidong, the representative of the imperial court, is here." Li Jingfang said softly in front of Wu Tingfang, who was sitting on a chair in the aisle.

Hearing that Zhang Zhidong was coming, Wu Tingfang lowered his head and thought for a while, he estimated that Zhang Zhidong came to discuss the negotiation again.

"Ask him to come in." Wu Tingfang, who thought clearly, said softly.

Beijing, Renshou Palace. Liu Jun stood motionless in front of the map of Jianmen Pass, and the red pencil he picked up in his hand had not been drawn until now.

"What, you still don't want to close the sword gate to yourself?" Zheng Yiqian, who was on the side, smiled when she saw that Liu Jun couldn't do it.

Hehe........ Liu Jun smiled, then picked up the pen in his hand and divided all the territories around Jianmen Pass to the north.

Syllable........ Liu Jun, who put down the pencil in his hand, threw the pen on the table and said, "I hope that this is the last time I will sketch on this map." ”

Hope, everyone hopes, looking at the map marked in red, Zheng Yiqian handed the tea in her hand to Liu Jun.

He knew Liu Jun's habit, if he marked it with a red line on the map, it was to show that there was a big battle with the imperial court, and a lot of people died.

"I hope that's the case, the question is, I just don't know what the court means?" Zheng Yiqian, who thought about it for a while, said.

I don't know, judging from the telegram sent by the old man last time, the imperial court intended to negotiate with him, but at that time, the Jianmen Pass had not yet been taken, and he could not easily order the negotiation. But now, Jianmen Pass has been taken by Wang Shizhen, and he has enough capital to pressure the imperial court to submit to the abdication, of course, if the imperial court does not agree to such a result, then there will be no chance, there must be, there will be one, two will not be in three.

"Is there any news from Baoji?" Liu Jun, who lowered his head and thought for a while, looked at Zheng Yiqian in front of him and asked.

Zheng Yiqian is a little clear about this matter, after all, in terms of telegraph, it is Zhong Lin who is in charge.

Just as Zheng Yiqian was about to say what Zhong Lin knew, she saw that Zhong Lin's shadow had appeared outside.

"Head, Wu Tingfang telegraph." Zhong Lin, who walked in, shook the telegram in his hand and said.

Wu Tingfang's telegram, that is the telegram from Baoji, Liu Jun, who heard this, suddenly stood up from his chair.

"What did it say?" Liu Jun didn't look at the telegram, but asked Zhong Lin.

"Head, Wu Tingfang called, and the court wants to start negotiations again."

The time is ripe, Liu Jun, who heard this, took a deep breath, then sat on the chair and began to deliberate, a few minutes later, Liu Jun looked at the two people sitting on the chair and said: "Send a telegram to Wu Tingfang, send him the latest negotiation content, and instruct that you can negotiate, but in terms of time, there is a limit, only ten days, within ten days, if the imperial court does not accept the conditions, our army will attack again." After Liu Jun finished speaking, he motioned for Zhong Lin to send a telegram immediately.

This time, the latest content of the imperial court negotiations has been modified to a certain extent, that is, in the original document contract, the palace of Chengdu Longquanyi will be used as the residence of the imperial court for a period of fifteen years, and after fifteen years, the state will take it back, and the treatment of the retired royal family will remain unchanged. Members of the royal family can enter the government to work, but only if they come step by step.

"Is the time limit for us to be too short for the imperial court this time?" Waiting for Zhong Lin to leave, Zheng Yiqian on the side stepped forward and asked, just now he stopped Liu Jun and said, ten days, you have to know ten days, whether the court can discuss the result, this is a question.

"It's not short, I've given them enough time, ten days, they can accept it, if they can't, then I won't have any hope for peace." After Liu Jun, who took a deep breath, finished speaking, he picked up the tea on the table from above again, took a sip and added.

"Don't worry, the imperial court will agree, even if Cixi doesn't agree, I think those people under her will agree with this most appropriate way." (To be continued.) )
