(The first more arrives, the second more can only go back to the code, it is estimated that it will be after the early hours of the morning, no matter what, it must be maintained.) ）

The next day, Tie Liang announced that he was recuperating at home on the grounds of physical discomfort, and the entire War Department also entered a state of chaos without a leader because of Tie Liang's absence, if he is still sensitive to politics, it is not difficult to find that Tie Liang chose to pick a son at this time, and there is an inextricable relationship with the reorganization of the Military Advisory Office this time, combined with the previous rumors in the War Department, Tie Liang and the regent Zaifeng have been at odds, and there are even some disputes involving core power, if these are true, That proves that Tie Liang's illness is far from being unwell.

Batches of urgent official documents were sent to the office of Lang Yinchang of the War Department, and during Tie Liang's absence, he partially replaced the role of the former, but on some issues involving the need to bear great responsibility, he still did not rush to give orders, and had to return these official documents to the Secret Service untouched on the grounds of temporary postponement, the central department that commanded the operation of the empire's largest machine, because of the absence of one person, the operation of some of the official documents was somewhat ineffective for a while.

Compared with these administrative blockades that occurred in the War Department, more anxious things are still waiting for the supreme head of the War Department, if what appeared some time ago was only a crisis of confidence between him and the top head of the Empire, then what is next in front of him is a real crisis of power.

And at the mention of power, the Minister of War could no longer sit still.

In the inner hall of Tie Liang's mansion, several high-ranking personnel of the military system crowded this not spacious room, no one spoke, and they couldn't even find a reason to speak.

The Lord Shangshu in front of him kept stroking his forehead, although there was no obvious expression on his face, which could clearly highlight his mood at the moment, but the few people sitting down could still have a bad premonition from the details.

"Marshal, the official reform has changed frequently over the years, and the regent has announced the separation of the Military Advisory Office and the Navy Department, not necessarily for the Marshal." As a former old subordinate, Shouxun couldn't help but be the first to stand up and comfort, but what he just said, even he himself felt untenable, because no matter how this point in time was explained, it pointed to the same person, and obviously couldn't use simple coincidences to perfunctory himself.

The subtlety of the political game lies in the fact that it is not to be eaten to the end in the most direct way, but to divide and digest it little by little in mutual checks and balances, and at the same time, it is also used to tell you in this way that it is best to obediently hand over your power before becoming the object of purge.

Although this turmoil is not trivial, but for the first time in so many years, Shouxun has seen this tough old chief, showing such a depressed expression, from competing for military power with Yuan Shikai, to later prosperous official fortunes, and reaching the position of the supreme minister of the army, the latter's energetic and ambitious impression has always been deeply imprinted in his mind.

Shou Xun's consolation, Tie Liang did not answer, the subtle atmosphere in the air returned to its original state after a short period of fluctuations, this scene, so that everyone present was a little overwhelmed, and there was a feeling of being on the edge of the abyss in the depths of his heart.

"Lord Shouxun is right, Tie Shuai doesn't have to be so pessimistic about the regent, four of the six towns in Beiyang are still under the command of our War Department, and the military power of the Qing Dynasty has also been restored to the original grasp in Tie Shuai's hands, not only that, but the regent also asked the marshal to train the Praetorian Guard, which shows that the regent still relies on Tie Shuai." Swept around left and right, seeing that all his colleagues had no intention of speaking, Wu Jiliang, who was sitting in the last row, also followed and said, relying on the big tree of Tieliang, he could achieve the position of the 12th division hall official in the War Department, if he wants to continue to climb up, the top priority is to quickly restore the confidence of this army leader.

"It's not that the old man is pessimistic, it's Ji Liang that you're too optimistic." Tie Liang finally spoke, he replied noncommittally, looked at the people in front of him, and a wry smile slowly appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"When he was in Beiyang, Yuan was powerful and arrogant, and the old man once bluntly told him that Nian Qianyao's fate was the end of the road." At this point, Tie Liang shook his head helplessly, and then said: "Now it seems that he Yuan is following in the footsteps of Nian Qianyao, but the old man has not been spared." Tie Liang sighed heavily, and his depressed tone was a bit as desolate as the end of the road.

Tie Liang's words cast a haze on the hearts of everyone present, yes, I thought that once Yuan Shikai fell, their group of people would sit back and relax, but they were not happy for too long, when the same fate came again, their group of people could only sigh, and they felt that the speed of political changes was so rapid.

"Tie Shuai is a hero of my dynasty, and it is really unfair for the regent to treat adults like this." Several people in the seat said indignantly.

"Tie Shuai trained the new army for me and sought a new policy, which one is not loyal, now the loyal ministers don't need it, and the capable ones are suspicious, which really reminds people of Han Xinshi back then."

There was a burst of condemnation in the inner hall, and Tie Liang's face slowly changed, he didn't come to these people to say such useless nonsense, and at the increasingly fierce pass, he stretched out his hand and stopped the following speeches.

"All of you adults are old husbands, and now that the old man is in trouble, what can you do, tell me everything you know?" Tie Liang stood up, he never intended to sit still, and Yuan Shikai was completely different, Tie Liang did not intend to retreat, even if it was just to temporarily avoid the edge and retreat as advance, even if standing on the opposite side of him was the regent of the Great Qing Prison State with absolute power, he was the same, his personality can sometimes really determine the direction of people, whether he suffers from it, or depends on it, Tie Liang conceitedly thinks that it is the latter, and because of this, he chooses to face it hard.

However, he thinks so, but it doesn't mean that everyone is the same as him, when he asked this question, the group of people who were chattering just now suddenly fell silent, and in order to hide their embarrassment, they could only swallow their saliva helplessly.

"You really can't help it?" The negative attitude on the scene made Tie Liang's face look a little gloomy, and it was no wonder that his question was tantamount to blatantly telling everyone present whether it was the regent or their immediate boss, this choice question you had to do.

"Tie Shuai, I don't know if I should say it." There was finally a different voice in the crowd, and Tie Liang's eyes lit up and he turned his head.

"Ji Liang, you say."

"This method is a bit aggrieved, Ji Liang doesn't know whether to talk about it or not." Wu Jiliang's desire to speak stopped, making Tie Liang's eyes squint slightly, and he waved his hand, signaling that the former did not have to swallow and vomit.

"Speak"

"Yes, Tie Shuai, whether the regent is coming for Tie Shuai or not, Tie Shuai has to guard against it, as the so-called good shade under the big tree, Tie Shuai can ask for Qing-Prince-Wang-Yi"

That name Wu Jiliang had just spit out half of it, and the crowd suddenly boiled, "Wu Junsi, there is a gap between Tie Shuai and Yi-Xuan, you don't embarrass Tie Shuai!" ”

Back then, Tie Liang fought to the death with Yuan Shikai for the military power of the Beiyang Army, and Yi-Liang, the biggest umbrella of the Beiyang Group, also broke out fierce contradictions with Tie Liang.

"At this time and that time, when Lafayette was still in the military, and now Zaifeng is in power, why don't King Qing and Tie Shuai huddle together to keep warm, and judge the situation is the best policy." Wu Jiliang didn't think much of the boiling discussion on the scene, like how to hug the thickest thighs, he really had the right to speak, and he didn't forget to choke on the other side, "Ji Liang is thinking about the big handsome, so I don't know what the princes and adults can do?" ”

"You"

A group of people kept arguing, as if they regarded this place as a martial arts arena, and Tie Liang, as the party concerned, looked at these people's posture, and his face became more and more gloomy.

"What kind of system does such an act become, and it is not all shut up."

Tie Liang's words were like a hammer, slamming heavily on all hearts, and thus announcing that this funny quarrel was over, he held back the anger in his heart, and looked at Wu Jiliang, who was at the center of the contradiction, and the latter continued with understanding.

"Prince Qing is not only the chief minister of military aircraft, but also the prime minister of our War Department, the only one in this court who can make Zaifeng jealous is the old Qing king, now Yuan Shikai has been deposed, Yi-Xuan suddenly lost an arm, Tie Shuai is in charge of military power as the secretary of the military department, Yi-Liang will not be unimportant, as the so-called world has no knot that cannot be untied, Lao Qing Wang and our marshal have not said anything, why should you bother yourself?"

Wu Jiliang's words were equivalent to a slap in the face, but in order to keep his position, he didn't mind risking public anger to incite Tie Liang to cling to Yi-Xuan, and in his opinion, the fact that power and power intersect is too commonplace.

Everyone fell silent, and many people squinted their eyes and glanced at Tie Liang cautiously, hoping that the latter would be furious and angrily reprimand the villain surnamed Wu who had a bad idea, and it was best to drive him out again, however, all their thoughts and thoughts were in vain, Tie Liang waved his hand, and his face was a little tired.

"Stand down, all of you."

After sending everyone away, Tie Liang fell heavily on his seat, the battle between heaven and man in his mind was no less than the quarrel of everyone just now, yes, this is a stinky move, he wants to gamble everything, dignity, honor, and even loyalty, but it is his last chance.

Do you want to be an upright and upright ordinary man, or do you want to endure a moment of humiliation and continue to hold power? Tie Liang finally made up his mind.

"Prepare the car and go to Qingwangfu."

As if he was in the mood at the moment, the carriage rushed to the main gate of the Qingwang Mansion at an impatient speed, and the sound of horses' hooves rolled along the way, and the dust and smoke rolled up covered everything, and even the other carriage that followed closely behind him did not notice.

"What Liangye said is really right, this Tie Liang turned out to be a person from Yi-Xuan, and we Taobeile and the Regent, I really missed him." Looking at the carriage parked in King Qing's mansion, in another carriage not far away, such a discussion sounded.

"Father-in-law, fortunately, my lord has a heart, and I hope you will tell Tao Belle truthfully, don't let the traitor blind our regent."

"Good man is generous, that's nature."

Han Chun'er and Xiao Quanzi glanced at each other, and then the carriage slowly disappeared into the thick night.

Such a day, indeed, is most suitable for conspiracy fermentation.
