Chapter 30: The Argument (1)
At night, Beijing City, Zeng Mansion. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Zeng Guofan, born in 1811, died on March 12, 1872. He is a native of Xiangxiang County, Changsha Prefecture, Hunan Province. He was a heavy minister in the late Qing Dynasty, the founder and commander of the Hunan army. Qing Dynasty military strategist, physicist, politician, calligrapher, writer. The official was the governor of Liangjiang, the governor of Zhili, the scholar of Wuyingdian University, and the first class of Yiyong Marquis ......"
Zhao Wushuang stood in front of the magnificent mansion of Zeng Guofan, and it silently appeared in his heart that it was the introduction of this well-known important minister in the late Qing period in the history textbook when he was in school in his previous life.
When he first came to this time and space, Zhao Wushuang was excited about these influential figures in the history of his previous life. The first time he saw Chen Liansheng and Lin Zexu, he was very happy.
But now, my status and mood have changed, and I will no longer be as excited as before. Only the clouds are light and the wind is light.
Zhumen big house, gilt copper knocker.
Even at night, two long strings of red lanterns illuminate the place as if it were day. Two sturdy guards with knives at the door, like two iron towers. It actually looked more powerful and elite than the two forbidden army guards standing guard in front of the Forbidden City Palace where they went before!
In this time and space, Zeng Guofan's official position and military power have not changed much, and there are some advances. Now the Green Battalion Army under his command is also stationing troops from Hunan, Hubei and other places, and from time to time they fight one or two battles with the Taiping Army.
"Senior brother? Shall we go in now? ”
Hu Lie said lightly. It seems that the well-guarded mansion of the imperial court is like a restaurant and restaurant, and you can enter it whenever you want.
"What are you doing in there? It's too much trouble. Senior brother will show you a hand and take a good look at the skills of using the power of the divine soul. ”
Zhao Wushuang smiled, and with a thought, he spread his powerful divine sense......
The luck barrier of Beijing City only suppresses the realm and power of cultivation. Tricky things are naturally not affected, but they may be less powerful.
For example, the "Ecstasy" that Zao Wushuang is going to perform now is like this!
The divine sense swept over, and he quickly locked on to a target in Zeng's mansion......
Speaking of which, Zeng Guofan was looking through various documents in the study at this time. There are stories about the war on the front line and the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, and there are also about the wars of the Westernization movement in various places. There are no less than a dozen books. But he is also a very diligent official.
Crunch.
The study door opened.
Zeng Guofan's favorite concubine Su Lan walked in with a bowl of soup. On weekdays, this little concubine does have to stay for him every night to make soup, and her cooking skills are very good.
He raised his head from the paperwork, looked at Su Lan, frowned, and said in a somewhat displeased tone: "Su Lan, you are kind to cook me soup." But didn't I say that at any time you enter my study, you must knock on the door and get permission to enter? ”
The study has a special meaning for Chinese men, especially those in high positions.
If she was a little dissatisfied on weekdays, this little concubine Su Lan would tremble with fright. But today, she has been scolded more severely, and she still has an indifferent expression.
He just put the soup on the small wooden table that entered the door, turned around and closed the door.
"Governor Tsang had better not panic and not shout, or else. It would not be good to increase casualties. ”
From this Su Lan's mouth, a man's voice actually came out!!
Although this voice is quite good, but in Zeng Guofan's ears at this time, it is tantamount to a ghostly sound, which is extremely terrifying.
Su Lan turned around, a strange smile tugging at the corners of her mouth.
Rao is Zeng Guofan's battle-hardened and calm bearing. Faced with such a strange scene, I was also chilled.
He sat down at his desk, tried to remain as calm as possible, and asked, "Who are you?" Why are you using such sorcery to come to me! ”
It was worthy of Zeng Guofan, and in an instant he thought that this little concubine Su Lan was probably controlled by demons. Then come to yourself. But at the same time, I'm really scared.
There is such a terrible sorcery, if he controls his wife and son, and assassinates him when he is close to him. There's absolutely no way to prevent that!
This person did not assassinate, but directly told him frankly, which shows that there is something wrong, not a murder!
Concubine Su Lan smiled faintly, and the light in her eyes actually had an indescribable bearing. Zeng Guofan was shocked to find that this bearing seemed to be a few points higher than the Xianfeng Emperor he had seen!
"Please Governor Zeng tomorrow at noon, the largest box in Yuelai Restaurant. I have prepared delicious food and wine, and Your Excellency has a round of the situation in China and the general trend of the world! Don't be late. ”
As soon as the words fell, the little concubine Su Lan was immediately shocked, and her eyes showed a look of panic: "Master, I, what happened to me just now?" I remember that I was making soup for you, how did I ......?"
She was visibly panicked.
Zeng Guofan waved his hand and said to her, "Stand down, it's okay." It's as if nothing had happened. ”
Su Lan still had a frightened look in her eyes, but since the master had already made an order, she could only make a blessing and retreat.
Leaving Zeng Guofan in the study with a wry smile: "Who is this sacred?" It's so arrogant! Directly in a half-inviting and half-coercive manner, let the old man go to Yuelai Restaurant? Anyway, if such a character just wants to murder the old man, it will be easy. It's good to look at the reality and the reality. ”
Needless to say, Su Lan, the little concubine just now, was controlled by Zhao Wushuang with the power of divine sense!
In fact, such things happened from time to time in ancient times. Some cultivators use their divine consciousness to control mortals to achieve a certain goal. Some people who don't know why have become "ghosts" and "immortals possessed" and the like......
That night, Zuo Zongtang, another feudal official and imperial court official who was still in Beijing, also experienced the same thing.
He was originally teaching his beloved young son martial arts, but he didn't expect his son to smile and tell him that he would go to the largest box of Yuelai Restaurant at noon tomorrow to discuss the general trend of the world!
After being shocked, Zuo Zongtang could only accept it helplessly. Faced with a completely unknown mysterious power, he has no possibility of refusal at all.
Late at night, two people are walking slowly.
It was Zhao Wushuang and Hu Lie, who had just informed Zuo Zongtang.
"Senior brother, this Zeng Guofan and Zuo Zongtang are both members of the Manchu court. Are they bad guys? ”
"Haha, junior brother. People are very complicated, how can we make simple judgments about good people and bad people? But if you have to say it, these two Han feudal officials in the Manchu court can be regarded as good people. At least, judging from the general trend of history, they have a credit for China! ”
"Oh, what is the senior brother going to talk to them about the general trend of the world?"
"I hope they can leave a greater credit in the history books! For example...... Let the Manchus fall ahead of schedule! (To be continued.) )
