Yuan Shikai hurriedly asked, "Lord Zhongtang, how do you plan to use your strategy?" ”

Li Hongzhang laughed, "You don't have to worry about this, you just need to act according to my orders, as soon as the old decrepit plan comes out, there will be no place to bury the thief." ”

After Li Hongzhang finished speaking, he separated from Yuan Shikai, and the next day, Lin Fei was in the barracks, listening to Ruan Fu Baojiao talk about the international situation she knew, although Lin Fei knew a lot about history, but Lin Fei knew all the major events in history, and for some relatively small things, he didn't know as much as Ruan Fu Baojiao.

Lin Fei and Ruan Fu Baojiao were talking, when suddenly an attendant came in and said, "Report to Your Majesty, Qing Court Minister Li Hongzhang asks to see you." ”

Lin Fei didn't have much affection for Li Hongzhang, because Lu Xian'er's assassination of him was planned by Li Hongzhang, Lin Fei asked in a deep voice, "What did Li Hongzhang do when he came to see me?" ”

Without waiting for the attendant to reply, Ruan Fu Baojiao sneered: "I must have come to ask for the three provinces of Yunnan, Guangxi and Guizhou." ”

"I don't think it's possible, if you ask for these three provinces, he would have come a long time ago, okay, let's not guess, let Li Hongzhang come in, let's listen to him."

Ruan Fu Baojiao then ordered the attendant to invite Li Hongzhang in, and as soon as the attendant turned around and left, Ruan Fu Baojiao smiled and said: "Master, we put the troops on Li Hongzhang's way to the barracks, and scare him well, okay?" ”

Lin Fei smiled helplessly, "You made me look like a bandit like this." ”

The two were talking and laughing, Li Hongzhang came outside the house, someone came in to report, Lin Fei asked Li Hongzhang to come in, Li Hongzhang entered the house, saw Ruan Fu Baojiao at a glance, was surprised, turned his head, and said apologetically: "I don't know that Emperor Fei's wife is here, it's rude, it's rude." ”

"Master Li doesn't have to be like this, our Chinese Empire is equal to men and women, it's nothing to let my wife meet guests, if you have anything, sit down and talk about it."

Lin Fei said and pointed to the chair in front of him with his hand, Li Hongzhang saw that Lin Fei's chair was very simple, showing a hint of disgust, but he still sat down.

Li Hongzhang wanted to be polite to Lin Fei, Lin Fei waved his hand and smiled: "Master Li, you and I have precious time, so you don't need to say these words, let's talk about things directly." ”

"Okay, okay, then the old decay won't say much about irrelevant things, Mr. Lin Fei, you were born in the Qing Dynasty, you don't deny this, right?"

Lin Fei's identity when he returned to this era is Lin Fei, the gun captain of the Zhiyuan ship, coincidentally, Lin Fei in this era not only has the same name as Lin Fei, but also looks the same, and what is even more strange is Lin Fei's skills, Lin Fei's physical fitness in this era is very good, and he can fully support Lin Fei to make difficult fighting moves.

Lin Fei nodded lightly, "I naturally won't deny this, my subordinates, they all know this." ”

"Okay, Mr. Lin Fei, do you know your origin?" Li Hongzhang said, showing a sad look.

"Where do I come from?" Lin Fei was puzzled, he once asked Liu Daming, Yu Xier and others about his life experience, and learned that he was an orphan, fatherless and motherless, living on the streets, and was later brought into the military camp by Deng Shichang, grew up in the military camp, and then was admitted to the Beiyang Gun School, which became a naval officer.

In Lin Fei's own time, his father was a naval officer and the captain of an aircraft carrier, and his mother was a senior agent.

Li Hongzhang smiled kindly: "Mr. Lin Fei doesn't seem to know his origin. ”

"No, no, no, I know, of course I know, I know very well, I'm an orphan."

Li Hongzhang shook his head and laughed, "No, no, Mr. Lin Fei, you are not an orphan, you have parents and a wife." ”

Lin Fei was stunned at the time, if he wants to say that he has parents, it is not strange, who can not have parents, but where did his wife come from, Lin Fei has been an orphan since he was a child, and he has not been married at all, which Liu Daming and Yu Xier are very clear about.

Li Hongzhang obviously saw Lin Fei's doubts, and said with a smile: "Mr. Lin Fei, you should be puzzled by the fact that you have a wife, right?" You don't need to be confused, I can tell you that your wife is a child bride, she has been raised in your family since she was a child, and she was supposed to marry when you grew up, but you were abducted by human traffickers. ”

In this era, many people are poor and can't afford to marry a daughter-in-law for their sons, so they buy a little girl, raise her, and when she grows up, she will be a daughter-in-law for her son, which is a child daughter-in-law.

Lin Fei let out an "oh" and asked, "What are you talking to me about?" ”

Li Hongzhang said with a smile: "I know that Mr. Lin Fei has also been looking for them, and the old man has already helped you find them, if you want, I will bring these people to you tomorrow." ”

Lin Fei's heart flipped suddenly, Li Hongzhang actually wanted to bring my parents and wife, there must be something greasy in this, I have never seen my parents at all, and the ghost knows if those people are my parents or not.

But Lin Fei couldn't say it directly, so he smiled: "Okay, I've been looking for my parents too, since you have found my parents, then I thank you very much." ”

Li Hongzhang said with a smile: "It's nothing, it's okay, I hope we can support each other in the future, help each other a lot, there are still things to do, if Mr. Lin Fei is okay, I will leave first." ”

After Li Hongzhang finished speaking, Lin Fei sent Li Hongzhang out, and when he came back, Ruan Fubaojiao laughed: "Master, I didn't expect you to already have a wife." ”

Lin Fei smiled bitterly, "Baojiao, don't make fun of me, help me think about it, what the hell is this guy Li Hongzhang doing?" ”

Ruan Fubao smiled and said, "I think it's the same as Xian'er's matter." ”

"Another assassination, you mean?"

"That's right, Li Hongzhang must have found three people, pretending to be your parents and wife, and when your relatives are reunited, he will be poisoned."

Lin Fei thought about it, it seems that Ruan Fu Baojiao's statement is the most reasonable, but the problem is, Li Hongzhang has already asked Lu Xian'er to assassinate me once, and Lu Xian'er didn't succeed that time, and now Li Hongzhang is repeating his old tricks, can he succeed?

Lin Fei didn't think about it anymore, thinking that he would just take precautions tomorrow.

The next day, Li Hongzhang came to see again, this time he brought three people, including an elderly couple and a young girl, Lin Fei looked at these three people, and felt that they did not look like assassins, because when these three people stood there, they gave people a feeling of timidity and fear, as if the whole world was a monster and wanted to swallow them in one gulp.

Lin Fei looked at the three of them carefully, and saw that the elderly couple had wrinkled faces, their eyes were already swollen from crying, they looked like people in their sixties and seventies, their actual age was often only forty or fifty years old, and people in this era were extremely hard working and looked very old.

I saw that the young girl was about the same age as herself, with the hairstyle of an unmarried girl, wearing an ordinary dress, without foot binding, and the girls from poor families generally did not bind their feet, so that it was convenient to work, and when she looked at the girl's face, she was not amazing, only the young girl's water spirit.

The girl was very shy, lowered her head and didn't say a word, but the elderly couple started crying, crying while talking about the past, Lin Fei quickly understood, it turned out that when he was young, the old couple didn't take care of themselves and let themselves be abducted by traffickers, as for how they ended up on the streets, the old couple couldn't know.

Lin Fei comforted the old couple a few words, asked them to rest, and then walked up to the girl, the girl's whole body was trembling, Lin Fei couldn't help but laugh: "Are you so scared?" ”

The girl lowered her head and trembled even more, Lin Fei turned around and called Ruan Fu Baojiao to him, and asked Ruan Fu Baojiao to take the girl down to rest, at this time Li Hongzhang told Lin Fei that he would bring a mysterious guest to visit Lin Fei in three days.

Lin Fei hurriedly asked who that person was, but he didn't expect Li Hongzhang to laugh and leave without telling the identity of that person.

As soon as Lin Fei saw Li Hongzhang leaving, he immediately asked his subordinates to inquire about the identity of the old couple and the young girl, and soon his subordinates came back to report to Lin Fei: "Your Majesty, we can't be sure if these people are your relatives, but we dare to be sure of one thing, that is, these three people are not assassins. ”

"How dare you be so sure?"

"Your Majesty, we still know a lot of skills in observing words and feelings, if these three people are really assassins, then they will definitely show their feet, but they haven't shown anything, it seems that they are not assassins."

Lin Fei pondered for a moment and ordered, "In this way, you arrange them to a room with bugs, and then listen to them for a night to see what they say." ”

The subordinates immediately agreed to come down and went to prepare, Ruan Fu Baojiao teased Lin Fei unknowingly: "Why don't you go to have sex with your wife?" As a result, he was naturally severely punished by Lin Fei.

The next day, at breakfast, Lin Fei asked his subordinates to report on the monitoring situation last night, and the subordinates replied: "Your Majesty, they didn't say anything strange last night, they just complained that you were not affectionate to them, and asked that girl to have sex with you as soon as possible and continue the incense for you." ”

Lin Fei thought for a while, and said in a deep voice: "This matter is indeed strange, if the three of them are assassins, there is no need to pretend when no one is around, so let's do it, you can listen to them for two more days and see what else they say." ”

Lin Fei asked Ruan Fu Baojiao to take the girl shopping, so as to see her reaction, if she was really a country girl who had never seen anything in the world, she could see it at a glance.

Two days passed quickly, Li Hongzhang was about to bring the mysterious person here, Ruan Fu Baojiao and his subordinates told Lin Fei one after another: "These three people are definitely not assassins, just ordinary people, especially that girl, she is completely a country girl who has never seen the world, and when she walked to the market, she saw a lot of people, and she was so frightened that she didn't even dare to raise her head." ”
