Chapter 273: Persecution and Compromise

(2nd Update)

"Prime Minister, the treaty has been negotiated, it depends on when Liangbi will withdraw from the army, and other foreigners have not made any more requests. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info"

Coming back from Dongjiaomin Lane, Liang Dunyan personally visited the door and briefly reported the content of the negotiation to Yi-Xuan, and Zai Zhen also echoed on the side: "Amma, in general, the treaty is beneficial to us, and the foreigners mean that we want to give them a step down, as long as the army withdraws from the lease, they will immediately withdraw the army, and on the surface we will suffer a loss, but in fact, to resolve this crisis, they can also give their cabinet a decent explanation." ”

This reason, how can Yi-Liang not know that the benefits of signing a treaty far outweigh the disadvantages, at least it solves the urgent need, but it is still the problem, how to make Liangbi retreat.

Yi-Liang paced back and forth in the room, and finally stopped, turned to the two of them and said, "You also know that we and Liangbi have torn their faces before, and he will never give up." ”

"No profit can't afford to be early, Liangbi doesn't need to go against the prime minister, the reason why he supports the army and is self-respecting is just a plot, he wants money, just give it to him, no matter how much money there is, it's just a martial artist." Liang Dunyan said.

"That's sixteen million taels" Yixuan felt extremely uncomfortable, especially on the issue of money, he was unwilling to do this kind of stupid thing to raise tigers, "It's not a small amount"

Liang Dunyan said: "Liangbi asks for a sky-high price, and the prime minister may not really give him so much, five million, ten million, the number can be reduced little by little, since we can negotiate with foreigners, Liangbi can naturally talk, in short, wait for the treaty to be signed, what to do in the future is a matter of the future." ”

Liang Dunyan said this, Yi-Xuan was a little shaken, and now the situation is critical, the whole country is insulted, and the Senior Administration Yuan has criticized him again, in this case, he has to put his personal feelings aside, and let his clay bodhisattva cross the river first.

After thinking about it, he said to Liang Dunyan: "We dismissed him before, I'm afraid he won't appreciate it." ”

"Prime Minister, I don't think so, Liangbi is eager to ask for money this time, we may be able to give it a try." Liang Dunyan then came up with an idea: "Anyway, we have to reinstate the first official Liangbi first, so as to ease the relationship between the two sides, since we want to talk, we must sit down first." ”

"The Senior Council has revoked the cabinet's dismissal order, let's do it again at this time..." Besides, it's redundant.

"The Senior Minister's Yuan is the Senior Minister's Yuan, and the Cabinet is the Cabinet, so we always have to make a gesture, not only to reinstate him as an official, but also to give him more commendation orders, false titles, and let outsiders know that the Cabinet is not flattering to the enemy, nor is it jealous."

Yi Xuan frowned, pondering repeatedly, Liang Dunyan and Zai Zhen did not dare to disturb, this matter, in the final analysis, still has to be decided by him.

"Songsheng, you're right, Liangbi is barefoot and not afraid to wear shoes, so as to blackmail the central government, it is really hateful, but we have to take into account the overall situation, and everything must wait until the foreigners retreat."

Yi-Xuan clenched his fists and said resolutely: "Zai Zhen, you send a telegram to Liangbi, send it tonight, don't say anything first, just tell him that the official will be reinstated, and so on, not only the official will be reinstated, but we will also promote him, promote him to the Minister of Foreign Affairs of the five southeastern provinces, and then award him a first-class Black Dragon Medal, in addition, the Praetorian Guards in the concession have rewards above the pipe belt, and the official promotion is a first-class, which is said to the outside world to praise the Governor of Liangjiang for his dedication, and in addition, don't mention anything else, especially when foreigners arrive in Shanghai." ”

"Yes, Amma." Zai Zhen looked at Yi and said, "If you don't talk about silver?" ”

"No, test his reaction first."

"Yes"

"Prime Minister, how do you explain to the foreigners?"

"Drag it first, and wait until Liangbi has an eyebrow."

"I'm afraid I don't have enough time"

Yi thought for a moment and said, "Three days, just three days, reply to him within three days." ”

"Got it, I'll do my best."

"Well, thank you for your hard work, Songsheng."

"Zai Zhen, what's going on with the Senior Affairs Yuan?" Yi-劊 asked again.

"It's even happier, and I heard from a few members of the Socialist Party that they are going to take advantage of the situation to topple the government." Jae Jin's face was gloomy, and the situation was not optimistic for them.

"Downfall? The courage is not small, I know, it's their business to not collapse the cabinet, let's just do our thing. "Yi-Liang is much calmer, he has experienced countless ups and downs in his life, but this time is perhaps the most tricky.

"Don't be afraid, as long as we reach a contract with Britain and France, the Senate will not be able to defeat us."

Zai Zhen and Liang Dunyan glanced at each other, and shook their heads suspiciously, they didn't know where Yi-Lu got his confidence, maybe he still had something in mind, right?

"Where has Yuan Xiangcheng gone?" Yi-Liang suddenly asked a digression.

"Listen to Keding, to the intersection of the Western Ocean and the Indian Ocean, Cape Town." Zai Zhenleng paused for a moment and said.

"It seems that Yuan Xiangcheng can't catch up..."

Yi-劃 sighed faintly.

.....

"Boss, Cabinet Official."

Two hours earlier, he had just returned from the French Concession Board of Directors, where he used a frank exchange of "friendship and sincerity" to appease the officials of the Board of Directors who had been frightened by the iron guns and bronze cannons outside the window.

Ye Kai opened the telegram, glanced at it a few times, and then sneered: "Yi-Liang can't stand it." ”

"Xiaoguang, Han Chu, as well as Commissioner Zhou, Commissioner Cai, and Commissioner Li, you can also take a look." Ye Kai said to Zhang Xiaoguang, Cai Naihuang and others who accompanied him.

These people looked at it in turn, and then they were overjoyed, "Congratulations to the good governor, congratulations to the good governor, in the final analysis, the court is still sympathetic to the meritorious people." ”

Cai Naihuang, Zhou Jinzhen, and Li Pingshu are officials under Ye Kai's rule, and they naturally want to be happy for their bosses, but Zhang Xiaoguang and Lu Shuangming on the side looked indifferent and patiently listened to what the boss said.

"This is all the credit of thousands of soldiers who are stationed in the concession, and Liangbi is just a person who has been dismissed, who is idle at home, and has not made a contribution, so how can he get the credit?"

"Don't make a table...."

"Someone came, replied to the cabinet, and said that Liangbi, who has lived in the north for a long time, does not like humidity, and has a lot of rain in Shanghai, so he suffers from leg disease, and every time he gets sick, he tosses and turns between the bed, and he can't move his wailing, so it is really difficult to receive the order, and I hereby ask the prime minister to choose another person to take on this great responsibility, so as not to delay the state affairs because of Bi alone."

Ye Kai's words, no matter who listens to them, will be disgusted, this is not an obvious excuse, and he has this intention.

"Yes!"

Hearing this, Zhang Xiaoguang quickly complied, while the other three were stunned on the spot. (To be continued.) )
