Chapter Eighty-Four: Chiho's Thoughts
"This French newspaper seems to be more detailed about Mr. Hayashi," Chiho Kirino said, pointing to another newspaper, "I have limited knowledge of French, but Hayashi can ...... Can you explain it to me? β
Lin Yiqing saw Chiho Kirino's eyes bright, and couldn't help but secretly sigh in his heart that Lin Yizhe was so charming.
I said, Lin Yizhe, you probably don't know that there is a super beauty in Japan who misses you, right? Lin Yiqing said secretly in his heart.
Lin Yiqing calmed down, opened the newspaper, and translated the French on it into Japanese for Chiho Kirino.
ββ¦β¦ When General Lin's coffin left Beijing, although it was escorted by royal guards and honor guards, it was still attacked by conservative diehards: an official named Huang Shulan openly stopped the procession transporting the coffin on the street and insulted the deceased on the spot, arousing the anger of the officers and soldiers and the onlookers, of course, the perpetrators were quickly arrested, but this incident also tells us how powerful the traditional conservative forces are in a country with a long history like Qianguo......
ββ¦β¦ General Lin's coffin was not covered with the national flag, as is often done in Western countries, but the train carriage carrying General Lin's coffin was planted with the national flag of the Great Qian Empire -- the golden dragon flag on the red ground, and the coffin was transported to the middle of the carriage and placed, and the bouquets of flowers presented by delegations from various countries filled the entire room, many of whom had traveled thousands of miles to Beijing to pay tribute to this great and loyal soldier......
ββ¦β¦ When General Lin's coffin arrived in Tianjin, almost all the officials of Tianjin City came to the station to greet him, including His Excellency Li Shaoquan, the governor of Zhili Province, and a large number of people and foreigners, who gathered here early to pay their respects to the general, who died young,...... After the train arrived at the station, the door of the carriage slowly opened, and six strong soldiers slowly carried the coffin down, and at this moment, an amazing scene appeared: His Excellency the Governor of Zhili could not control his sad feelings, and actually stepped forward to carry the coffin for General Lin for the next soldier! Of course, his movements were quickly forcibly stopped by his subordinate officials, because he was sick, and his body had been very weak recently, and it was difficult to adapt to such fatigue, and then four generals under Governor Li stepped forward to replace the four soldiers carrying the coffin, they were General Zhou Shengchuan, General Wei Rugui, General Luo Rongguang and General Wei Rucheng, these four generals were all subordinates of Governor Li Shaoquan, who had followed General Lin to fight against the Japanese army in Moss Bay, and formed a life-and-death friendship with General Lin, but because of the military system of the Qianguo, The generals stationed in other places were not allowed to leave the defense without the order of the imperial court, so they were not able to go to Beijing to attend the funeral of General Lin, and they now express their condolences and respect to the deceased generals in this way......"
ββ¦β¦ In a deep and solemn atmosphere, the monks who presided over the memorial ceremony recited the scriptures in a low voice, after which the officers and men of the navy and army circled the altar to pay their final respects to the general. There was no pomp, no music, just a group of tearful, silent subordinates walking slowly and quietly through ......"
ββ¦β¦ General Lin's coffin was transported to the cruiser Princess Peshuo, a British-built cruiser whose beams were all laid diagonally in accordance with Western naval etiquette as a sign of great mourning and flown at half-mast,...... The cannons on the Princess Heshuo gave a final salute with a low cannon sound, and then Captain Deng Zhengqing said goodbye to their deceased chief in a short word, and he gave his speech with a shiver of pain and a look that could hardly hold back his tears, so that the sailors on board were in tears, and even those who could hold back their tears could not help crying at last......"
"I've never seen sailors with guns crying, but now all the sailors of the honor guard are quietly weeping."
ββ¦β¦ The cruiser's small mourning hall rests next to a large 190-millimeter Schneider gun, a weapon that was once used in the Sino-Japanese War to accompany the general on his last journey before his burial,...... When the general's body is brought back to his hometown, there is no doubt that the relatives there will hold a funeral ceremony that is more glorious than here and in the beautiful port of Tianjin. But what could be more beautiful than the heartfelt tears of the soldiers at this moment? β¦β¦β
Lin Yiqing was also embarrassed after reading this touching report written by the French, and when he raised his head, he was surprised to find that Chiho Kirino was crying.
"I'm sorry, Lin Jun, I'm ...... As soon as I read this, I couldn't help but cry. Chiho Kirino smiled, but her voice was choked, and she took out her handkerchief and gently wiped the tears from her face.
"Has Chiho-sama seen him before?" Lin Yiqing saw Chiho Kirino's appearance, and there was an inexplicable trace of jealousy in his heart.
"Nope." Chiho Kirino shook her head, "I first heard his name when I heard Uncle Shunsuke and Uncle Nanzhou talk, and then I saw his deeds in the newspaper. β
Hearing Chiho Kirino mention the name "Shunsuke", Lin Yiqing's heart couldn't help but chuckle.
Hirofumi Ito!
Moreover, it was also published in the newspaper just now, and Ito Hirobumi also participated in Hayashi Yoshizhe's funeral!
can be targeted by such an enemy, Lin Yizhe, you are indeed powerful. Lin Yiqing said secretly.
"Does Chiho-sama like him very much?" Lin Yiqing smiled slightly and suddenly asked.
Chiho Kirino's face flushed slightly, her eyes lowered, and she nodded slowly.
"Lin Jun, you ...... Not really...... He? Chiho Kirino asked softly.
Lin Yiqing understood her intentions, and for some reason, her face became a little feverish for a while.
If Chiho Kirino had asked him such a question before he had that dream, he could have told her very clearly, but now, since that dream, everything has changed......
"Lin Jun, tell me the truth, okay? Please, ......" Seeing Lin Yiqing hesitating, Chiho Kirino's water-cutting eyes were full of pleading.
"If Miss Chiho thinks I'm him, then I'm him; If Chiho-sama thinks I'm not him, then I'm not him. Lin Yiqing smiled slightly, "Do you think it's okay for Miss Chiho to answer like this?" β
A happy smile shone on Chiho Kirino's face, and her smile was so bright that everything around her instantly lost its color.
"Yes!" Her voice became extraordinarily cheerful, "Lin Jun, don't tell anyone about our conversation today, not even Uncle Nanzhou, okay?" β
