Chapter 8 The Blessing of All People

On the riverside north of Seoul, there is a Gothic two-story red brick villa, like a church, which is Mu Linde's mansion in North Korea, there are four Korean new soldiers standing guard with muskets on their backs at the door, when Song Xiaofei took five hundred Huai troops to the door of the mansion, the sun just shone on the river, sparkling, and the scenery was pleasant.

Song Xiaofei, who was dressed in military uniform, looked at this luxurious villa near the river, and remembered that China also paid Mu Linde a salary of 300 taels of silver every year, which was equivalent to the annual salary of 30 soldiers of the Huai Army stationed in North Korea, he actually betrayed China, so he ordered the Huai Army to rush into the house to arrest people, and the North Korean guards guarding the door came to stop him.

Song Xiaofei let Huai Jun surround the villa, and personally led eight Huai Jun straight to the bedroom on the second floor, he kicked the door open, Mu Linde's beard was sleeping sweetly with two undressed North Korean palace maids, the palace maid's clothes were on the ground, exactly the same as the palace maid's clothes next to Concubine Min, and at a glance, he knew that these two palace maids were given to Mu Linde by Concubine Min.

Seeing a Chinese soldier breaking in, Mu Linde woke up, pulled a nightgown at the head of the bed and put it on, jumped up, trembled, pointed to the Huai army who broke in, and asked angrily, "Who are you?" How dare you break into my house? ”

Song Xiaofei walked in from outside the door, asked someone to bring a large basin of cold water, and poured it on Mu Linde's head: "General Ben sees that you are hot-headed, and you are not sober enough, so I will cool you down!" ”

Mu Linde saw that it was Song Xiaofei, and said in blunt Chinese: "I was sent by Lord Zhongtang to Korea to be an advisor to the king, how dare you do this to me?" ”

Song Xiaofei said: "You eat things inside and outside, and you still remember your identity!" I don't think you'll be an advisor to Nakado-sama anytime soon. Concubine Min said yes that you suggested that she contact the Russians to contain China, yes or no? ”

Mu Linde quibbled: "I am an adviser to the king of Joseon, and I have the right to give him good advice." ”

Song Xiaofei pulled out a black-shelled Mauser gun, and the hard barrel pressed against Mu Linde's temple: "I only ask you, is there or not?" ”

Mu Linde's face turned pale and nodded, and when Song Xiaofei saw that he admitted it, he said angrily: "There is an old saying in China, it is called 'self-inflicted, you can't live', I will give it to you today." Come on, tie him up with hemp rope for me, pull him out and kill him! ”

Mullinde said: "I am German, you can't kill me!" I'm going to the German Minister to China! ”

At this time, Tang Shaoyi also arrived, and he persuaded Song Xiaofei to bring Mu Linde back to China and let Li Hongzhang deal with it. Song Xiaofei didn't want to cause an international dispute, so he ordered someone to stuff Mu Linde's mouth with his stinky socks, so as not to annoy him crookedly, and escort him back to Tianjin at that time.

After Song Xiaofei dealt with the matter, he asked Tang Shaoyi to move directly into the palace of the DPRK to live, and from then on, all important domestic and foreign teachers in North Korea were interrogated. Concubine Min was afraid that Song Xiaofei would really abolish her husband Li Xi, so she hurriedly urged Kim Yun-sik to do the matter of sending Song Xiaofei's beauty.

That Song Xiaofei returned to the official residence in Seoul, and saw that his good friend Kim Yun-sik had already arrived at the house, and he congratulated him: "Congratulations to the general!" ”

Song Xiaofei was a little confused, and asked: "General Ben was just stabbed in the back by your Korean king, how can he be happy?" ”

Kim Yoon-sik said: "The general will know when he returns to the room." ”

Song Xiaofei returned to the room, pushed open the door and looked, by the way, three women dressed as brides were sitting on their bedding, they were all wearing red hijabs and red kimonos, waiting for Song Xiao to fly into the cave room, and there were more than a dozen big boxes in the room. Song Xiaofei asked Kim Yun-sik: "What do you mean by this?" ”

Kim Yoon-sik said: "Our mother remembered the general's great kindness, and did not bring her family to Seoul, so she specially rewarded the general with Li Guifei's sister Li Xuezhu, as well as two stunning beauties personally selected by the lower officials. I just said hello to the housekeeper that you agreed to marry them, and sent them all to your room. Inside the box were some silk silk, gold and silver jewelry, which were given by the king as a dowry to the general, which was not a tribute! Niangniang has already spoken, if the task is not completed, the lower official will go back to see her, I made this decision, the general forgive me! ”

Song Xiaofei remembered that he and Rong Rong were not married yet, and there were three more ladies at once, so he couldn't tell clearly, so he hurriedly waved his hand and said to Jin Yunzhi: "Thank you Concubine Min for me, her heart is understood by the general, these three beauties, the general is really unblessed, you better send it back." ”

Kim Yun-sik said: "Xiaguan knows that the general Su Xi is a talented woman, and these three beauties are not only beautiful as flowers, but also well-read and reasonable people, who can speak Chinese, and they are all beautiful women who are one in a million." According to the rules of North Korea's chastity, when they enter the general's door, they are the general's people, if the general does not accept it, they can only commit suicide, and the lower officials have to hang themselves outside the palace gate, hoping that the general will beg for mercy! ”

When Song Xiaofei heard it, I damn it, you are good Kim Yun-sik, I still treat you as a good friend, you know that I am kind-hearted, and I can't bear to see you die, so I deliberately led them into my house! What else did he want to say, but the two women in bridal clothes knelt on the ground at this time, crying and crying, and said in stiff Chinese: "Please don't give up, general, save our lives." ”

Song Xiaofei couldn't see women crying, so he hurriedly stepped forward to help them up, but they refused, crying and saying: "General, if you don't want us, we won't have the face to live again, so we will go on a hunger strike and kneel down to die here." ”

Song Xiaofei knew that North Korea's pedantic concept of chastity was learned from China, and sending them back was indeed tantamount to killing them. was hesitating, and the two girls cried and said that if they brushed Concubine Min's intentions, it might also affect their families. Song Xiaofei had no choice but to promise not to let them go back, and let them get up and speak first.

Jin Yunzhi was outside the door, looking at the scene in front of him, knowing that Song Xiaofei was moved by compassion, stroked his beard, and said, "There is nothing else, the lower official will go back to the palace to resume his life, and he will not disturb the general's cave room." ”

Song Xiaofei thought to himself, these two crying little ladies must have come from an ordinary family, and if they really got their lives, they accepted it, but this Li Xuezhu stayed by his side, maybe he became the eyes and ears of Concubine Min, and in history, Yuan Shikai had too many wives, one wife and nine concubines, and he was overindulged, so he finally died of uremia, and he had to be restrained, so he said: "Lord Jin, three ladies, I will accept two, Li Guifei's sister, you bring them back, Hugh has to embarrass General Ben again, otherwise we won't even have to be friends!" ”

Jin Yunzhi and Song Xiaofei have a very good personal relationship, knowing his temper, listening to his words, thinking, this is okay, even if most of the tasks have been completed, Concubine Min is estimated to be able to deal with it, so she agreed and took Li Xuezhu away.

Song Xiaofei's heart was very struggling, and he waited until the second half of the night to go back to the room to sleep, uncover the hijab of the two ladies, they entered the palace and were dressed up by a special person, and it was really the appearance of a shy flower in the closed moon, and the ring was fat and thin, each with its own characteristics, extremely attractive, and there was a strange fragrance on the body. They are beautiful and delicious, and Song Xiaofei suddenly remembered a famous saying he had seen in the book: "We are not good. Color, just brave to face the desire to fall. Wanghe surname! ”

The two little brides Kim Hyun-joo and Lee Min-jung were sitting upright, and Song Xiaofei asked them how old they were, they were only sixteen years old, how should they enter this cave room? Dealing with these two crying little beauties, he really has a headache. The most terrible thing is that if you want them, you have to take the responsibility of your husband, and you can't snub them in the cave room, otherwise you won't be too different, and you can't favor one over the other. That night, Song Xiaofei couldn't be Liu Xia Hui, so he had to enjoy the blessings of Qi people, he stroked the slender jade hands of the two ladies, like a light boat into the stream of the Peach Blossom Spring, down the stream, into the depths of a hundred flowers, until the clouds and rain, the bed fell red dots, the two beauties were drenched in sweat, and their voices were also very tactful, humming and chirping like a warbler's song and swallow language.

Song Xiaofei escorted Mu Linde back to China and reported to Li Hongzhang the inside story of North Korea's "alliance with Russia to reject China." Li Hongzhang sighed and was greatly disappointed in Mu Linde and some other foreign teachers, feeling that the Chinese were still loyal and reliable, and that in the future, the leading power in diplomacy and military affairs should still be held in the hands of the Chinese. This is exactly the result that Song Xiaofei wants, he feels that the time is ripe, let Liu Buyun and them start to act, get rid of the British adviser Lang Weili of the Beiyang Naval Division, a conspiracy against the Beiyang Naval Division to seize power, about to start, Song Xiaofei knows that the next battle will be crucial, he can only win, must not lose!;
