Chapter 7: Like a Dream (End)
The officialdom of the Qing Dynasty has always had rules. First, the pomp must arrive, even if you are tired all the way, you want to hold a bowl of white porridge straight neck pouring, you have to go to the Yancai seat, the weather in May and June, a group of old men crowded on a table with sweaty faces, the table has to be surrounded by a heavy skirt, sitting there as if on the edge of the fire. There is no other reason, your grade is there.
The second is who the host is, who the accompanying guests are, what to say, what kind of things to do, there must be a set of rules, and everyone must follow the process. You must not be wrong, if you make a mistake, everyone will laugh at you, you can't be an official, what else can you do?
As a direct subordinate of Shanghai Dao, there is also one of the landlords, Shanghai Dao, who arranged this reception banquet for the marshal. In terms of heart, those who are officials are reluctant to participate, but they have to pinch their noses. The first rule is too big, the main guests at the main table have to be dressed like Zhou Wu Zheng Wang, needless to say, a full set of clothes with a big hat, how can you have a weight of more than ten catties, and according to the rules, you can't be crowned, and the pain of eating with a big hat on your head can be imagined.
The accompanying guests on the table around it are not easy, a ball of gods has to run through the main table, the handsome toast, everyone must raise their glasses happily, the handsome put the chopsticks, even if you are holding a fat chicken leg, you have to quickly put it down and turn your face to face the handsome. At the end of a meal, it is common for the stomach to rumble. Those who know how to come to the stomach first, don't think that you have a share of the public funds.
Moreover, the governor received the wind and served the swallow vegetable banquet, which was also a practice formed after Daoguang, whose ruling rules gradually became more and more refined. Officialdom is famous for not prospering without precedent, and unextinguished precedent. As long as it becomes a precedent, no matter how absurd it is, the Qing Dynasty will not fall, and it will have to be continued. (For example, in the Liangjiang officialdom at the end of the Qing Dynasty, the meal when the state and county yamen were sealed every year, because I don't know what year, the drummers of the yamen finished blowing and beating, and they went to the kitchen to help the cook pinch the bean sprouts.) As a result, in the next nearly 100 years, there will be bean sprouts at the seal banquet in Liangjiangzhou County, and the drummer will inevitably have a cameo role as a cook. )
Yancai mat, a kind of northern ground seat, is really a bit unpopular in the rich and elegant Liangjiang place. In the whole of Shanghai, there is no good cook. For a table of wine banquets, the reimbursement of public funds is 600 taels or 800 taels, but the dishes on the table are either light and tasteless, or simply raw. You can't eat if you want to! The big guy is basically pretending to hold a cup and holding chopsticks to a table of things that can't be eaten, and he is making a show alive. The problem is that the whole process of this kind of play is completed, and it takes more than an hour, and the foreigner's clock is almost three hours!
If you give a banquet to the governor, you can't set a couch. Regardless of the lack of candidates for officials in Shanghai, lawlessness has become the norm, and other places also talk about official proverbs, they are used to serving the three and two halls of the four roads. Half of the time I eat is smoked by a bitch. Sitting here at three o'clock, I can't enjoy it, and I have to accompany the play, and the pain can be known.
Rao is like this, the officialdom in Shanghai is all there today, and there is no one who is sick. Shanghai officialdom is also really wary of Xu Yifan's arrival, this new handsome is too powerful and murderous, and the two hundred and five deeds of this Xu handsome who came from the north are also thunderous. Under his hands, everyone has no bottom in their hearts, and they all have to rush over to touch the temper of this handsome man. Many addicted and young officials melted four or five cooked cigarette bubbles in milk and swallowed them in one gulp, and with the determination to die, they were ready to fight for this feast at these three hours. But he didn't think about it, Xu Yifan and Xu Dashuai didn't come at all!
On the main table, only Zhang Peilun, Tang Shaoyi, and Zhan Tianyou sat shoulder to shoulder. Zhang Peilun has been experiencing this kind of scene for a long time, drinking with an empty cup, and using chopsticks to hold the air to act chic and free. just smiled and looked at the people who were sitting with them, such as Shanghai Dao, Shanghai Customs Dao, and Jiangsu Yanfa Dao. A few people who sat with them were staring at each other, and the process couldn't go on from the beginning, what should I do? is more embarrassed, Xu Yifan is absent, and his attitude towards Liangjiang officialdom can be known, I don't know what means this 255 marshal will use to Liangjiang officialdom. Officialdom pays attention to the sedan chair people carrying people, although Shangguan has to serve as a father, but this father does not give face to the officialdom of Liangjiang, but it is also the first time!
Yanfa Dao Zengshou, who came from Nanjing, sat there and rolled his eyes, and wanted to attack the temper of the flag man and was holding himself back, the wine glass was pinched in his hand and creaked, and his face didn't know whether he was addicted to cigarettes or angry, green and green.
In addition to Zhang Peilun, Tang Shaoyi and Zhan Tianyou who were sitting on the seat were also uncomfortable, don't look at Tang Shaoyi's official title as the official envoy of Xu Yifan's shogunate, Zhan Tianyou was also promoted to the exemption of the ban, Jiangnan Manufacturing Bureau and Liangjiang Foreign Affairs Bureau, the two red yamen are already destined to be in his pocket. These two had never seen anything like this.
Tang Shaoyi was still a little calmer, but he didn't speak. But Zhan Tianyou was so uncomfortable that he twisted around, after following Xu Yifan, in addition to doing things, he was doing things, and Xu Yifan only needed you to report everything clearly, don't embellish it with any false words. Now that he has arrived in Jiangning, he has a lot of thoughts about how to integrate the resources of the two rivers and show his strength, and he only feels that the time is not enough. But I still have to sit in this stuffy place for three hours!
Stuffy to the extreme, Tang Shaoyi and Zhan Tianyou glanced at each other, and understood the meaning in each other's eyes. At this time, I can't help but miss North Korea. There are not so many rules there, if you want to see Xu Yifan, at noon, the big guy is holding a military lunch box and arranging things while eating, everything is forbidden, and he is resolute. After experiencing that kind of vast world, and then returning to China, it is as if I was so stuck by this sticky air glue that I couldn't stretch my hands and feet!
There were dozens of officials in the room, and their faces were dull, as if carved out of a mold.
Da Shuai's thoughts, as the most trusted person around him, can figure out a lot. With the talent of the handsome sky, he can destroy the foreign devils and the natives in the South Seas, suppress the entire Korea, and turn the tide in a national war...... Can he shake this brilliant Qing Dynasty that has been frozen to the point of almost a stone?
I don't know how long the awkward atmosphere lasted, there was no word at the main table, and the people around me were all stunned. As soon as the mood is nervous, some people's addiction to smoking comes quickly. A prefect in his fifties, who didn't know what kind of errand he was doing in Shanghai, looked like that, thin and hunched, almost curled up, and his face was like a layer of soot. I know that this adult has to smoke two taels of Fushou paste to run up a day without saying anything. Before I came, the effect of a few cooked smoke bubbles had passed, and I sat there with my fists and legs stretched out, yawning according to my mouth, and tears and snot flowed outward like a waterfall. The colleagues around him poked him to remind him of his attention, but the old man was already extremely empty, and he fell down with a bang. The three platforms sitting at the main table were so frightened by the sudden sound that they almost jumped up, and when they turned their heads, they saw the old man curled up on the ground and pumping, and his big hat rolling to the side.
Shanghai Daoyi flicked his sleeves: "What a system!" Hurry up and help Master Zhang down! Pick up the hat, too! Master Zhang is phlegm, who serves him, and he doesn't have any eyesight! ”
A few waiters rushed over to help the old man, and some went to pick up the big hats that were rolling all over the ground. I heard Zhang Peilun, who was sitting in the room, say slowly: "Slow! ”
Everyone stopped what they were doing and turned their eyes to look at Zhang Peilun. Seeing Zhang Peilun's calm expression, he looked at the old man who was still twitching from time to time and smiled: "This ...... Lord Zhang, right? ”
The old man was like this, and when he heard Zhang Peilun's question, he struggled to salute: "Go down...... Zhang Guangming, the prefect of the Shanghai Daobao Bureau, see the adult! The lower official has a little illness with phlegm, and today it is really unorthodox, and I hope that the adults will forgive their sins! ”
Zhang Peilun seemed to be smiling: "It's still the adult of the family...... Donate to class? ”
As soon as a sentence came out, most of the officials present bowed their heads, and then looked at each other, the red tops were all exchanged for silver, and everyone should not laugh at the second brother.
Before the old man Zhang Guangming could answer, Zhang Peilun smiled again: "Have an addiction? ”
"Xiaguan...... Xia Guan just occasionally fiddled with this game, and he was really not addicted, and the adults laughed......"
"The taste of Yunnan horseshoe soil has drifted here, a ingots are only eight taels of horseshoe soil, and Lord Zhang is so arrogant!" Zhang Peilun laughed, and his fierce expression was solemn: "It's a shame to throw people here!" Which law of the Qing Dynasty allowed officials to smoke heavily? You don't have to pick a hat, go down and listen to the ginseng! ”
Xu Yifan didn't get to the banquet, Zhang Peilun, a figure who was not embarrassed or embarrassed by Xu Yifan's side, thundered through such a trivial matter, did Xu Yifan really want to make a big move against the officialdom of Liangjiang? Everyone turned their own thoughts, and then looked at the old man Zhang Guangming, and the whole person was soft on the ground. Jiangsu Yanfa Dao Zengshou slammed the table and stood up, the plates and saucers clanged, and Zengshou trembled with anger, and the halberd pointed at Zhang Peilun.
"Zhang Youqiao, what crazy are you! Li Zhongtang is so kind to you, he stepped down, and you were busy going to Xu Yifan to sell yourself and take refuge. Your fame has been cleaned up since Ma Jiang back then, what qualifications do you have to sit here and bark wildly? You increase the old man is not only a donor, but also smokes a lot, the horseshoe soil increases the old man and still looks down on it, not the Indian big soil increases the old man and doesn't smell it! Return to your master! Let's fight a lawsuit with the Manchurian general in Jiangning City, it's really not good, let's see you in Yanjing City! When I was in Majiang, why didn't you drown you...... You don't eat good forage when you're born! ”
Uncle Qiren scolded happily, regardless of Shanghai Road and Guan Dao, pulled his sleeve, and turned around and left. Bai Siwen, who came to run an errand with Zengshou, stood up with a white face, not knowing where to go, and then looked at Zhang Peilun who was sneering with a raised face, and chuckled in his heart. There is a fight to increase longevity, but he is not a white master! Look at yourself, you are also donating Banga to smoke a lot, it seems that the newcomer Xu Dashuai hates this, this ...... How good is that?
The two local Taoist platforms in Shanghai didn't hold it, looked at each other, and sat down as if nothing happened, just waved their hands and asked their subordinates to drag Zhang Guangming, who had become a puddle of mud, out, the old man was already scared to the point of losing his mind, and he was just foaming at the mouth, which was a bit like spitting up milk.
The two Shanghai Daotai muttered in their hearts the same meaning: "Flag man mallet!" Xu Yifan's meaning is nothing more than knocking on the mountain and shaking the tiger, to see if he can scare a group of people in the Liangjiang officialdom to leave, so as to install private individuals. Everyone knows that Liangjiang officialdom is difficult to handle, as long as you don't leave, what else can Xu Yifan do to you? What else can he do? Rong Zhongcheng came to Suzhou for nothing? Being an official is not just a matter of playing the flag man's style! ”
In this way, the banquet can only end hastily, and everyone will get on the carriage and horses. Flee and leave this place. Zhang Peilun, Tang Shaoyi, and Zhan Tianyou took a carriage together and went to the mansion arranged by Shanghai Dao for them. Halfway through the car, Tang Shaoyi, who had been silent, stopped the carriage and looked around, there were only a few Praetorian Guard knights guarding them. He waved his hand to let the coachman leave, and sat in front of Zhang Peilun: "Youqiao, what kind of trouble are you making today?" It's not enough to offend people for the big handsome? Even if the handsome man has the intention to rectify the officialdom of Liangjiang, he didn't come to startle the snake from the beginning! ”
Zhang Peilun was closing his eyes to recuperate, and when he heard Tang Shaoyi's question, he slowly opened his eyes, but he didn't answer Tang Shaoyi's words first, and looked at Zhan Tianyou: "Daren, do you think so too?" ”
Zhan Tianyou shook his head: "I don't want this, the burden that the handsome man gave me is heavy enough, and I can't manage the rest, and I'm not qualified to take care of the rest." ”
Zhang Peilun smiled: "Daren is a real person...... Shaochuan, you and Daren are both capable and ambitious, it is the time to be promising, but I, Zhang, have been a human being for several lifetimes, and what I can contribute is just such a little experience of the ups and downs of officialdom! Shaochuan, you are destined to be the first person to govern the prime minister under the big handsome, I can't fight with you......"
This sentence hit a little careful thought that had been circling in Tang Shaoyi's heart for a long time, but Zhang Peilun said it, and his face turned red at the moment. But I don't know what to say.
“…… One word, one thing, can test many things. The handsome man is also a celestial man, but as his underneath, some things have to be done in front of the handsome! Today, I took advantage of the topic to attack, nothing more than to see the reaction, from the Shanghai officialdom, you can know the two rivers, except for a banner man Taiye Yan Fadao, everyone else is fine. Thinking about Rong Lu walking in front of the marshal, what means does the Liangjiang officialdom want to use to deal with the marshal, is it not clear? This kind of thing to fight with these most boring officials, it is too boring to let the big marshal directly this thought, he is spreading the whole world! ”
Zhang Peilun's tone was like a friend of gold and stone: "Today, Zhang Mouren is a front station for Dashuai, and the topic of rectifying the Liangjiang officialdom has been done for Dashuai, and Daqing will definitely not be allowed to open his eyes to see what people here can say, Shaochuan Daren, you are all born and died with Dashuai, and Zhang's first investment can only serve these!" ”
"What's the subject?"
Tang Shaoyi was the first to turn up this question in her heart, but she couldn't help but ask, deep down, she seemed to be unwilling to show weakness in front of an officialdom veteran like Zhang Peilun. Then there is a bigger question, they can be regarded as being recognized by Xu Yifan, their family name, their future ambitions, they have long been tied to Xu Yifan, and the chic Zhang Peilun in front of him, what are his ambitions?
His dream is to be the prime minister under Xu Yifan, and he will be in the world. Zhan Tianyou's dream is to cover the factory chimney wherever the eye can see......
What is his dream?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Brother Fusheng, why don't you sleep yet?"
As soon as he heard the official words with Cantonese accents behind him, Tan Sitong knew that it was Kang Youwei. In these days in the capital, Kang Youwei unceremoniously took care of almost half of the things for Tan Si, Shangtiao Chen, meeting guests, entertaining back and forth, giving advice, all kinds of things, Kang Youwei is almost equal to him.
Tan Sitong was dressed in the atrium, looked back and smiled: "I can't sleep." ”
"Those who achieve great things must have peace in their chests. Brother Fusheng is one of the leaders of my generation, and everyone below is watching what he does. ”
Kang Youwei stood side by side with him with his hands and said lightly. The implication is that this black dwarf will also promise himself to be one of the leaders of the new Qingliu.
Tan Sitong smiled to himself, didn't say anything, just looked down at the moonlight in the capital under his feet. The moonlight shines through the shadows of the sycamore branches, like hazy water waves.
"I'm thinking, am I getting farther and farther away from my brother Xu? At this time, I seemed to realize that I knew very well what dreams I had, and I would go on unwaveringly...... But what kind of dream my brother Xu had, I never asked, our brother, even a chance to have a heart-to-heart ...... Am I too conceited, or is my Brother Xu too deep? ”
"The dream of a martial artist is nothing more than glory and wealth, Weifu is self-dedicated, and there is no exception for a thousand years! What's there to guess about this? Kang Youwei pursed his lips and waved his hand vigorously, and then his tone was eager: "Resurrection!" Now everything is easy to do, and as soon as Ito Hirobumi arrives, it is nothing more than a rush to return, and my brother can take on this responsibility! And refreshing the dynasty is the top priority! My generation is despised by the ordinary people in the capital, nothing more than a pen and no knife. Xu Yifan's status at this time is just by virtue of the 10,000 Mauser under his command! If you want to do great things, you must have force as your minions, and there are only two ways to obtain minions, one is to divide the armies for our use, and the other is to train yourself in the new army. Self-training of the new army is not urgent, and the salary is tied. There is no one in the world who has a strong army under Xu Yifan, and the resurrected brother was the master of the Praetorian Guard, and several letters were sent, how can there be no tempting person under Xu Yifan? The three towns of the Praetorian Guard, has the resurrected brother forgotten the origin of the next two towns? ”
Tan Sitong's tone was a little dazed: "Dig my brother's corner? ”
Kang Youwei turned around and pressed his shoulder: "Brother Fusheng, which is heavy and which is light, can you still tell the difference with your brother's talent?" ”
His spittle was sprayed on Tan Sitong's face. Tan Sitong looked gloomy, and gently took Kang Youwei's hand: "Nanhai, it's not early, go to sleep...... Go to sleep. Look again, look again...... When these letters are sent, our brother is truly gracious......"
Watching Tan Si and Xiao Se's backs walk away, Kang Youwei was there, and only after a while did he snort in a low voice: "It's not a person who has made a big deal!" ”
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Tianjin, Dagu Wharf.
In front of the China Merchants Passenger Terminal, two gas lamps illuminate the dock as if it were daytime. The officials who sit in the dining room, the merchants from the north and the south who sit in the cabin, and the endless flow of people on the wharf. The porter and coachman who greeted the pick-up and drop-off passengers almost drowned out the electric bell and whistle. A night sailing ship of the British Swire Pacific Company also docked at this time, adding to the excitement. The sound of the bells of the carriages, the half-hung English of the Chinese servants, and the roar of the Taipan who managed to pick up and drop off the passengers angrily reprimanded those who had taken up the way of the foreigners to get off the ship, were all mixed together. Everything is just like the prosperity and bustle of the big wharf in Tianjin.
The only difference today is that no matter how hurried the people are, they can't help but cast their eyes on one place. The people who passed by there even stopped, and even formed a small pile of people.
Among the crowd are two little girls who look exactly the same. At the age of fifteen or sixteen, he stared blankly at the big steamer in front of him with his mouth open, and the beautiful and soft place, like Qionghua piling up snow, made everything around him lose its color.
"Fire ...... Steamer ......"
The little girl on the left is a little stammering, everyone looks carefully, this little girl's dimple is on the left cheek......
“…… Good...... It's huge! North...... Yanjing City is not ...... Not with that! ”
The little girl on the right is no better. Well, her little dimple is on the right cheek......
The two little girls were carrying them in their hands and on their shoulders, all of which were food boxes, sitting blankets, dressing boxes and the like. The costumes are also quite luxurious. Looking at the dress and these outfits, it should be a pair of little maids who serve people. But these two sisters are such characters, who can afford to use them? Can you afford them?
It's not that there are no gangsters at the dock, and there are many gangsters in Tianjin Wei who eat at the dock. But these two sisters are really innocent and beautiful. Let people see nature at first sight and infinitely love. Not only did the gangsters not bear to come forward and disturb, but they looked around at what people were afraid to see, and if they wanted to move, they were dragged over and beaten: "What are you?" It's a blessing at a glance, what else do you want? ”
A Western-style rubber carriage flew to the dock, and everyone shouted and beat it according to this recklessness. However, I saw that the person driving the car was dressed in a Western-style military uniform, wearing a large-brimmed hat with a black lacquer brim, and a dragon collar badge on both sides of the collar. Everyone quickly get out of the way, the people of Tianjin Weili are well-informed, who doesn't know that this is the master of the Praetorian Guard! The thugs who ate the dock meal also had quick eyesight, and they were busy clearing the crowd: "Start and open, and it's not old and old, the Praetorian Guards are doing things, and you won't let it?" ”
The Praetorian uniform-colored officer in the carriage was naturally Pu Yang, and his face was sweating profusely. I'm in a hurry. His old sister is really a woman among women. Decisions are quick, and decisions are made quickly. made up his mind to go to Liangjiang with his younger brother, knowing that if he went to ask Lafayette, there would be a lawsuit. At that moment, he left three letters, one for his master Pu Wei, one for Lafayette, and one for the emperor's brother. The little sister who couldn't leave for a moment went straight from Yanjing to Tianjin. Pu Yang has a China Merchants ferry ticket five days later, and now China Merchants and Lord Xu are a family, and the old sister is on the road with him, so he can't just be casual, not only to change the big dining room, but also to package both sides, knowing that the old sister loves to be quiet. After booking a big dining room, it was a little difficult for both sides to refund the tickets, so he accompanied his sister to China Merchants Bureau to discuss the way. Leaving the little sisters, they hurriedly boarded the boat to arrange Xiuning's living environment. I didn't think about it, but when I rushed over, the little sister was still standing here in amazement, looking at the thousands of tons of sea ships and looking a little weak. There are so many people around!
He jumped out of the carriage and glared at the little sister: "What are you two selling!" ”
The little sisters cried with sad faces, aggrieved: "Fourth master...... Miss is not here, we dare not go up. The steamer is taller than Jingshan, and it is still whining, listening to the eunuch said, there is a big old demon in the steamer, and it is it that runs away with the boat, and it is whining when it screams...... We can't paddle either, if the boat sinks suddenly......"
"Shut up! The people on the boat say this, beware of the sailors beating you! Pu Yang couldn't do anything about them, and he could only scare them with his teeth and claws. He dared to touch the little sister's finger, and the old sister could fight with him.
"Fourth, what are you scaring them for? The sisters haven't even been out of Nancheng, who let you leave them? Xiuning slowly got out of the car and traveled all the way, from Yanjing to Tianjin, she didn't even mess up her sideburns. There was a calm look on her face. She beckoned the young ladies to come over, escorted the little sisters and took them to the gangplank.
Pu Yang looked at his sister's immobile expression, and couldn't help but admire. Not only have the young ladies never been out of Nancheng, but my sister has never been out of Yanjing City! Otherwise, how could the entire clan say that Aunt Qiren, none of them can compare to their old sister?
He turned his head and greeted a few thugs who were helping to maintain order: "Brothers, I remembered the feelings, next time, I invited Weijiu!" Remember, my name is Pu Laosi, from the Praetorian Guard! ”
"Gentlemen, there's nothing to say, go all the way!"
The whistle sounded, covering out all the sounds around them, and the whining sound frightened a pair of sisters together. Xiuning didn't hear it, because the undulating waves in her heart were much more intense than the whistle.
It's really like a dream...... Just left Yanjing City, where he stayed for twenty-three years? What kind of world is the two rivers on the other side of the sea?
What kind of person is Xu Yifan, who made such a monstrous wave with one hand in this last world, who made such a monstrous wave in this last days?
She wanted to see this man......
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~?
"Old Man Han's dream...... It's a pity ......."
Xu Yifan leaned on the small bed in the study half asleep, his arm resting on his head, just thinking there, all kinds of thoughts were spinning around in his mind, as if he couldn't stop.
It was the end of the world, and all kinds of characters looked at the sky vaguely under this seemingly quiet water surface, and watched the dark clouds on the horizon outside the water gradually pile up. Everyone knows that the storm is coming, and everyone has their own ambitions and pursuits, as well as all kinds of entangled obsessions. All kinds of piles come together, how can we not make this last day so magnificent and wonderful?
It's just that their dreams are above them.
Lao Tzu is a cross-...... Can you still have Lao Tzu to pull the wind?
The incense sect and the former generals of the Heavenly Kingdom cannot be used and cannot be used. Because the two are two and one thing. The power of this secret society, this semi-religious and semi-obscurantist power. In any era, if you want to use this kind of power, it is a great weapon of destruction for others, a great weapon of death for the world, and even more so for yourself.
With this power, the ability to destroy can only wait for it to decline naturally. History is full of evidence, I originally felt that his era had gone every step of the past hundred years, why did he release this huge destructive force in his own hands?
He is here to save his luck for a hundred years, and he is not here to be a sabotage game for the Yellow Nest. If it was a simple change of dynasty, he could take advantage of it, but what era is it! Once they are used, it will be wasted for decades!
He doesn't have any psychological burden on killing. In the South Seas, in North Korea, he opened the way with blood all the way. But there's no need to kill people, why do you do that? The evil government of the Manchu race must be destroyed, because this evil regime has not only suppressed China for more than 200 years, but will also inevitably continue to pervert in the future...... In the process of overthrowing them, blood was not spared, and whoever stood in the way and cut off his head, he was numb to killing anyway. But for genocide, he didn't have that mustache.
That's to say it in a big way. Let's just say to the small inside, the kind of power that Old Man Han and they represent can be touched? 30 million, 300 million is no play.
At the beginning, the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom swept the whole of South China like a raging, and the Qing Dynasty was about to slip away, but this kind of violent power made the powerful factions in the middle and even lower classes of the entire Qing Dynasty combined. The Manchu center is no longer afraid, but he can't help but consider all kinds of local powerful factions! He wants heaven and man, not a country torn apart!
As for the secret society of the Xiangjiao, it is something that cannot be touched. If you accept it, you will really have to cry. The intellectual middle class of the Qing Dynasty had an almost natural aversion to it. The reputation of the Boxers, if you don't consider the textbooks, is really not very good...... If you want the intellectual class and the backbone of the Qing Dynasty to join forces against you, then lead the Xiangjiao to launch a vigorous peasant uprising...... Transform these guys, transform hair. accepted Old Man Han, no matter how hypocritical and wronged, that is, accepted Xiangjiao them. Idiots can't see that they're one.
But 30 million taels, that's a lot of money......
Thinking of this number, Xu Yifan could only salivate while lying there. The more I thought about the 30 million taels, the more annoyed I became, and I rolled over and got up with a grunt, wondering if I would just read a book for a while.
Outside the door, a figure suddenly flashed, and a tall figure wearing a cloak quickly jumped into his arms, and a soft voice sounded at the same time: "Don't turn off the lights yet?" ”
Xu Yifan, who was confused when he thought about things at first glance, thought that it was Luo Shi, a little girl, who had the audacity to touch the door, and he also called out: "Luo Shi? ”
As soon as he called out his name, he felt bad, Luo Shi was one hundred and seventy-eight centimeters tall, and he was a little taller than him in his arms. The fiery girl in his arms is only one hundred and seventy centimeters, just to his eyes, this is the current head of the Xu family's inner house, Li Xuan, Miss Li!
As soon as the words fell, he received a fist on the stomach, and Li Xuan really tried hard, so that his face wrinkled. Looking down, a pretty face that captivated the city and the country was flushed like fire, frowning with infinite vinegar, and chestnut hair was as bright as a dream under the lights, who else could there be besides Li Xuan?
"You're thinking about them, I'm going back!"
Xu Yifan hurriedly went to turn off the lights, just kidding, it's almost a sperm worm, can you let this delicious and soft mixed-race beauty go back? What incense teaches Old Man Han, while going.
With a snap, the concession made an exception to pull out the wire from the boundary, and the bamboo wire electric light installed went out at once, but Li Xuan's body in his arms became even hotter, panting delicately, just burying his head on his shoulder and not speaking.
"Why?" Yanfu came suddenly, I am afraid that it will be either annihilated or stolen, Li Xuan really has a strange spirit that surpasses this era. Xu Yifan felt that his whole body was about to be crispy, and he asked in a trembling voice.
“…… Because you are my hero, and I am going to marry, and I am also a hero...... Even though I'm in Shanghai, I know how you got back outside...... I've read all the newspapers...... I waited for you for half a year, I didn't know your safety, and I waited for the suffering of others, and I also knew for the first time......"
Li Xuan's low voice was also like a dream.
"Then why did you beat me out with those two little North Korean girls?"
Xu Yifan sat on the bed with Li Xuan in his arms, and couldn't help but ask.
The girl in her arms chuckled: "Who let me tell them with Du Juan Luoshi, no one is allowed to take you in, if you don't beat you out, how can I be a person in front of them in the future?" You're the best, and you can't break it in two hits, right? Isn't that ......?"
The last two sentences were almost soft-whispered, Xu Yifan felt that he had melted, and he was still dripping all over the place. There was only one place as hard as the bayonets of the Praetorian Guard. He wiped his saliva fiercely, and reached out to pull Li Xuan's cloak, under the cloak, I don't know what kind of beautiful and hot and soft girl body it is!
It's superfluous to say anything at this time, don't say it yourself, Li Xuan had better not say it either. opened her mouth and kissed the wolf, Li Xuan's taste was really unexpectedly beautiful, even with a little hint of fruit, her cheerful and lively, like the blue sea and blue sky of the South Seas, clean and dusty.
The fly in the ointment is that the little girl is a little uncooperative......
Li Xuan's little tongue desperately pushed his tongue outward, and after it came out, she spit out twice, she grabbed her cloak and gasped twice: "Don't tell Luo Shi Cuckoo them!" ”
"Don't say it!"
"Hints don't work!"
"Whoever confides in the wind is the grandson!"
"My father and aunt are religious, and they are not allowed to tell them!"
"I'm sick in the brain and tell them this!"
"When I got married, I was not allowed to laugh at me in a white wedding dress!"
Li Xuanqiao's face was serious and serious, and Xu Yifan's mind turned around before he understood. Li Xuan is from a Christian family, and it stands to reason that she can't wear a white wedding dress if she has a premarital surname......
After understanding, what emerged in my heart was not to laugh at the innocence of this girl, but to love infinitely. The girls at this time, no matter how cheerful and lively they are, are still different from the girls of their time......
Seeing Xu Yifan's extremely serious nod, Li Xuan gently closed his eyes and let go of his hand. His face was burning like he was about to burn. Xu Yifan untied his cloak and saw ......
An incomparably beautiful dress......
Under her cloak was a clothed ......
Although the little fantasy in his mind made a little broken sound, Xu Yifan still resigned himself to continue to untie Li Xuan's dress, and Li Xuan kept his eyes closed, trembling slightly.
Is it tonight?
Her mind was too big to think of the simplest of questions. All the feelings in the whole body are concentrated on Xu Yifan's fiery hands!
Like a dream......
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Nightmares...... What a nightmare......
Xu Yifan sat on the edge of the bed with his head in his bare arms, Li Xuan grabbed the corner of the quilt and looked at Xu Yifan with puzzled eyes.
Just now, the surnamed Xu was panting like a big wolf dog when he was lying on top of her and undressing, why didn't he move now? She was a little upset, but a little quietly relieved.
After a while, Xu Yifan made a sluggish voice: "Ah Xuan......"
"What's wrong?"
“…… When you come to the Great Aunt, you can't do this...... Didn't your aunt teach you? You will get gynecological diseases......"
At this moment, Xu Yifan burst into tears.
