Chapter Ninety-Four: Murder

More than a dozen errand officers stood quietly in the gate, in the middle of the courtyard, Zhou Fu was wearing a second-grade official uniform embroidered with brocade chickens, wearing an official hat with a coral top and a flower feather, and Li Mingfang, who was bending over and smiling on his face, was talking and laughing in a low voice. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 Five or six steps behind Zhou Fu, Zhang Shiheng, who was also wearing an official uniform, stood with an officer of the Wupin Beiyang Naval Division wearing a coral top warm hat and a bear supplement, and the two of them thought that they were afraid of disturbing Zhou Fu is whispering.

The official uniforms of the Qing Dynasty were very particular, and when it came to hats, it was stipulated that official hats should wear warm hats in winter, ordinary officials wore sable hats, senior officials could wear sable hats, and sable warm hats could only be worn by emperors. Starting in March every year, officials must change to wearing cool hats. Only the officials of the Beiyang Naval Division wear warm hats all year round. Therefore, Qin Chuan knew at a glance that this officer he didn't know was from the Beiyang Naval Division.

Seeing Qin Chuan enter the courtyard with the salt group, Zhou Fu, Zhang Shiheng, and the officer of the Beiyang Naval Division all stopped, raised their heads and looked over with a smile.

Because of the proofreading, as soon as he saw Zhou Fu and Zhang Shiheng on their bodies, Qin Chuan felt uncomfortable for a while, and his heart that had just calmed down couldn't help but feel bored again, turned around and raised his face, waved his hand and threw the reins to Chu Yunfei angrily, and said viciously to the officers and soldiers of the Yan Regiment who had just returned triumphantly and were immersed in the excitement of the crowd's cheers.

"Today's proofreading, you are a well-deserved first, you have earned face for Lao Tzu, and it has made Lord Zhou's face shine. Meritorious service is rewarded and punished, tonight all the participants in the review of the staff are a large piece of meat, a large bowl of wine, in addition, Lao Tzu each rewarded ten pieces of eagle ocean. ā€

"Didn't you hear it all?"

"Hear me."

Among the more than 100 people who participated in the school review, except for Shi Feng, Chu Yunfei, Zhou Dajing, Xu Tong and others who did not squeak with strained faces, the others all answered excitedly and loudly, and everyone's faces were suddenly filled with cheerful smiles.

Ten yuan of Yingyang, which is equivalent to giving them an extra month's salary, how can these young men not be happy, not to mention, today they and their top bosses are in the limelight in front of the old and young masters of Tianjin Wei and those big men in Beiyang whose eyes are on the top of their heads.

"Disbanded."

After Qin Chuan finished speaking, he turned around and left without looking back, and came to Zhou Fu with a straight face.

Qin Chuan came to Zhou Fu's side, raised his hand and was about to bow down, but was grabbed by Zhou Fu one step at a time. Zhou Fu's rounded face was calm, but his deep eyes were shining.

"Ming Hong, although your salt regiment is in Beiyang, it is not in the Huai army sequence, but it is named in my Yamen. I like your Western-style military salute, and in the future, in Beiyang, except for Lord Zhongtang, everyone else will salute with Western-style military salute. ā€

After Zhou Fu finished speaking, he took a step back, and with a soft smile on his face, he looked at Qin Chuan quietly and silently.

Looking at the second-class member of the Daqing Hall in front of him with a kind face and who had been extremely cared for and cared for him for several months, the depression and anger in Qin Chuan's heart suddenly dissipated.

Qin Chuan's feet were forced, the heels of his leather boots touched together heavily, and he raised his right hand with a "swish", gave Zhou Fu a standard military salute, and reported loudly with all his might.

"Report to Lord Zhou, according to the salt regiment belonging to the Yamen, in the school parade, do not disgrace the mission, bravely win good results, please Lord Zhou instructed."

"Good!" Zhou Fu couldn't help but cheer loudly.

Zhou Fu opened his mouth to say something, but after looking at Zhang Shiheng and the officer of the Beiyang Naval Division who were more than a dozen steps away, he still closed his mouth and walked slowly towards the courtyard wall with his hands behind his back.

Although Qin Chuan ordered the disbandment, because Zhou Fu and Zhang Shiheng were there, Shi Feng still took his participating troops to the backyard at a trot. Because Zhou Fu came early. The idlers in the courtyard had already let Li Mingfang rush into the backyard, and at this moment, in addition to the dozen or so servants of the Yamen who were standing quietly at the door, there were also Zhang Shiheng and the officer of the Beiyang Naval Division and Li Mingfang who retreated to the side.

Qin Chuan frowned and looked at Zhou Fu's back, thought about it, walked a few steps behind Zhou Fu and said in a low voice.

"My lord, please talk in the building."

"No need."

Zhou Fu, who walked more than a dozen steps away, turned around, looked at Qin Chuan, who was following closely, and said calmly: "This review is different from the past, all the departments of Beiyang gather together, it is very rare, the middle hall has set up a banquet in the Yamen of the Minister of Beiyang, and I will go over in a while." ā€

Seeing that Li Hongzhang Qin Chuan's face suddenly darkened, Zhou Fu sighed lightly and looked at Qin Chuandao.

"Minghong, do you have a grudge?"

Qin Chuan smiled bitterly and said: "My lord, how dare you have a grudge in your heart, I just feel that there are many injustices in this review, and my heart is uneasy." ā€

Zhou Fu nodded expressionlessly and said: "It is no longer appropriate to change the rules on the spot, and then cancel the award and commendation on the spot, with these two things, it is natural for ordinary people to have resentment." ā€

Zhou Fu then changed the conversation and said: "However, others can do this, but you Minghong shouldn't." ā€

Zhou Fu not only told the truth of the unfairness of the proofreading, but also faintly complained about the salt group in his words, which made Qin Chuan very grateful in his heart, and he was thinking about pouring bitter water in front of this kind old man who could be said to be his top boss, but he didn't want Zhou Fu to just say the second half of the sentence, which made Qin Chuan confused, and he couldn't help but feel puzzled in his heart.

Seeing that Qin Chuan was surprised, Zhou Fu didn't explain, but sank his face, and the soft gaze in his eyes gradually became cold.

"In just a few months, you have a lot of wisdom and great success in business. Let's just say that this salt group, in a short period of time, not only has the potential to gradually become a tiger in your hands, but you are also proficient in Western archery and artillery skills, so that foreigners also praise it. ā€

"It's just that you know that those who have achieved great things in ancient times must not only have the wisdom of wisdom and the skill of opening and closing vertically and horizontally, but also have the mind to open thousands of miles and hide all things in the world. The little proofreading is unfair, it's just a little thing, how can you be resentful! In this way, is it the work of those who have achieved great things? ā€

The more Zhou Fu spoke, the colder his face became, and his eyes became more and more aggressive, and in the end, he almost had a strong voice, and Qin Chuan's heart was agitated when he heard it, and he felt a faint cold sweat on his spine.

Zhou Fu's previous words were easy to say, it was nothing more than saying that he Qin Chuan was a capable official, but the words behind made Qin Chuan very frightened.

"Those who have achieved great things in ancient times have the wisdom of wisdom, the art of opening and closing vertically and horizontally, and they must have the mind to open thousands of miles and hide all things in the world."

This is clearly what Gu Lai Xiaoxiong did, and even Qin Chuan was directly associated with Cao Cao in his heart. These words can be described as heart-wrenching, especially from the mouth of the second-class member of the Qing Dynasty in front of him, which is even more extraordinary. If Zhou Fu's words are spread, and then they are used by people with intentions, Qin Chuan will lose his head if he can't say it.

Could it be that this Zhou Fu in front of him really has the skill of seeing people's faces?

Or, Zhou Fu is just like the old man he saw in Tianjin, with shocking methods?

If this is the case, the kind old man in front of him is alluding to something, then 怂怂怂怂怂怂

Qin Chuan only felt that the muscles in his body were tense, and a murderous intent had secretly risen in his heart.
