Chapter 1154: The Border Storm Rises
(This chapter is the final chapter of volume 6, and the next chapter enters the final volume, volume 7 "The Battle of the End")
Dean Everlund found Ulan Tuya and said what about the little daughter, it must not be left with them, Ulan Tuya sighed and asked the nurses to wrap themselves up and take them home. He also instructed Mama Rong to ask her to invite the two nurses into the house immediately, and then make plans after the old man recovers later.
And Wang Maoru carried Zhiya's body into the car, and soon the car drove back to the Shangwu General's Mansion at No. 99 Yanjing Street, and the people in the house were preparing to celebrate with the housekeeper Wang Peng as the leader, and the chief of the guard who came back ahead of schedule Wu Resong said: "After the fourth lady gave birth, she died of exhaustion, and she was handsome...... Heartbroken. ”
Wang Peng hurriedly ordered the servants to remove the red flag and color heads, and he didn't know whether to replace them with white cloth banners, so he had to let people prepare to come out first. The other ladies also got the news, and several ladies sighed one after another, this Zhiya character naturally didn't say, and he got along well with everyone, but he was a person like Lin Daiyu. Zhiya's parent-child third young master Wang Zongfu didn't know yet, but Tang Baoqi asked him to take Zongfu to Princess Tatyana's mansion next door, and let several brothers also go over, saying that the family is doing business, don't come over to the princess's mansion these days. Tatyana was suspicious, so she ran over and asked, Tang Baoqi pulled her to the corner and immediately said it, and Tatyana also cried sadly.
Tang Baoqi immediately said: "You can't let the children know, a few little guys are very shrewd, you have to make up your mind, don't let the little ones know about it." Zongfu is still young, if he knows, I am afraid I don't know what this child will become in the future. ”
"Okay, I will." Tatyana cried for a while, but she restrained her sadness. After a while, he calmed down and took the children back to the princess's mansion.
At this time, Wang Maoru's convoy also returned, and Wang Maoru still walked in with Zhiya's body, until Zhiya's courtyard and put her on the bed.
The so-called three great sorrows of life, losing his father at an early age. lost his wife in middle age and lost his son in his later years, but Wang Maoru caught up. Perhaps in the eyes of others, President Wang Maoru not only caught up with the middle-aged widow, but also lost his father at an early age, after all, after he crossed over. Both parents are no longer in this world.
Wang Maoru's face was calm and scary, without a single tear, he was sad in his heart, but he couldn't cry at all.
This sadness made his heart twist, but he couldn't express it, his throat was dry and hoarse and he couldn't even speak. He only felt a little numb, and the people around him went back and forth, but he didn't know what was going on. After sitting in front of Zhiya's body all night, Wang Maoru finally regained some consciousness.
Because he was extremely sad, he actually spent a day and a night unconsciously, without eating, drinking, or sleeping.
When he pushed open the door and walked out, he saw that the big guys were all looking at him. It's only been a night. Wang Maoru was already unshaven and his two sideburns were gray, he sighed and said, "Wang Peng, prepare for the funeral, the fourth lady is gone." ”
Suddenly, Mama Hu, who had been serving the fourth lady, howled and cried, and sat on the ground almost out of breath. A few ladies couldn't help but wipe their eyes with tears, Wang Maoru swept away everyone and didn't see Ulan Tuya, and asked, "Where is the eldest lady?" ”
"The eldest lady helps take care of the children." Wang Peng said busily.
"Kid?"
"yes. The daughter born to the fourth lady ......," Wang Peng said cautiously.
Wang Maoru nodded and said to everyone: "Prepare for the funeral, everyone take a hand, Yuzhuo, you know this matter." You're helping Zhang Luo. ”
"Well, don't worry, sir." The second lady Yuzhuo showed a neat style of doing things at this time, she loves Zhang Luo the most on weekdays, and likes to fight for power, but it is also because of the habit she has developed since she was a child, she has to take care of her sister since she was a child and prevent herself from being bullied, and she has developed her tricky character, but her heart is not bad. Because of Zhiya's death, she cried several times, thinking that she had made Zhiya sad before, and suddenly regretted it in her heart. At this time, Wang Mao arranged the funeral like her, and Yuzhuo secretly swore in her heart that she would talk about the scenery of the funeral, and she would never let Sister Zhiya go cold.
Wang Maoru went to Ulan Tuya's room, and saw two old mothers teasing a newborn in a cradle, the indoor temperature was very high, Wang Maoru took off his coat, Ulan Tuya took it and hung it on the clothes rack, and said with a wry smile: "The child's life is hard." ”
Wang Maoru said: "Alas, I was born without my mother. He walked over to the child, and the two old mothers quickly got out of the way. This hard-working girl had been asleep, and suddenly opened her eyes, and she smiled like a providential smile on her face, and that smile was very similar to Zhiya. Of course, the newborn who was only two days old, even if the smile was just a muscle reaction, but in Wang Maoru's heart, it was not ordinary, he only felt that this daughter was a gift from God, and let her accompany him instead of Zhiya.
"Son, Daddy will raise you to adulthood." Wang Maoru said softly.
After handing over the child to the old mother, Wang Maoru said to Ulan Tuya: "Ulan, do you have any ideas? ”
Ulan Tuya said: "I have an idea, since Zongzhou gave it away, I feel that I often regret it, seeing that Zongou is getting older and older, I want to take her by my side." ”
Wang Maoru said: "Since you have this idea, I also support you, and no one is allowed to mention the life experience of this child in the house in the future." ”
Ulan Tuya immediately said: "That's natural, she will be my own daughter in the future, sir, you can give a name." ”
Wang Maoru thought for a while and said, "It's called Luo Ying, Wang Luo Ying, Zhiya saves money and loves Japanese cherry blossoms." ”
Mama Hu, who has been serving the fourth lady Zhiya, strongly asked to go to the eldest lady Ulan Tuya to help take care of the children, Wang Maoru persuaded her to go home to care for the elderly, he would give her a lot of money, and she didn't need to work so hard. Mama Hu resolutely refused to leave, knelt on the ground and cried: "The fourth lady treats me like a mountain, and now she is gone, leaving only Miss Luo Ying, which is also my heart." I must bring her up, please master to do it. "Mama Hu doesn't know much culture, she's just an old lady in the Northeast outside the Guanwai, but she knows how to be grateful, and Wang Maoru also obeyed her wishes and let her take Luo Ying.
As for the government, everyone also knew that there was an accident at Wang Maoru's home, and Premier Gu Weijun immediately went to Wang Maoru's house to comfort him, saying that you are busy with family affairs, and there is nothing important about state affairs now, just leave it to me to deal with. As for the one qiē in the presidential palace is still running efficiently, with Tang Shaoyi in the presidential palace, one qiē naturally does not need Wang Maoru to worry too much.
Mrs. Wang Maoru's funeral was also relatively grand, and the second lady Yuzhuo prepared with all her heart and held a grand funeral for Zhiya in a beautiful manner. Not only did the government from all walks of life come to mourn, but foreign ambassadors also came in person, especially the Japanese ambassador Yukichi Kohata, who carefully asked people to make cherry blossom wreaths out of paper and send them over, which made Wang Maoru very moved by the seriousness of this person.
After the funeral, Mrs. Zhiya's coffin was also transported on the plane, and was transported back to the ancestral tomb selected by Wang Maoru in Daxinganling, Heilongjiang, becoming the second person of the Wang family to be buried here. It is a pity that the location of the ancestral tomb selected by Wang Maoru for himself has already buried his two wives, the fourth lady Zhiya and the sixth lady Wu Qiuyue.
Zongfu endured the pain of losing his mother early, and insisted on holding a filial piety stick when he was at a funeral, which made people feel distressed at a young age. After the end of the qiē, Wang Maoru was afraid that he would not be able to bear it, so he called him to his side and said: "Third child, you can find that mother for anything in the future, and if your father is not around, they will help you." ”
"Daddy." Zongfu said, "Will you go home often?" ”
"Yes." Wang Maoru said.
Although Zongfu was precocious, it was also a big blow when he encountered this kind of thing, and he refused to speak these days, Wang Maoru was also afraid that something would happen to him, and suddenly thought of letting him take more responsibility, so he said: "Third child, do you know that you have a sister?" ”
"Sister?" Zong Fu raised his head and asked curiously.
Only then did Wang Maoru tell her the truth, and Zong Fu suddenly said anxiously: "That's my sister, I want to take care of her." ”
Wang Maoru said: "Yes, so you don't want to be depressed." ”
"Hmm." Zongfu said.
In the evening, Zong Fu ran to Ulan Tuya's courtyard to see his sister Luo Ying, Ulan Tuya said that Luo Ying is still young, don't scare her, so he took him to see it. Luo Ying's face looks very much like Zhiya, with a round apple face and big eyes, long eyelashes, dark hair, and a sleeping appearance that looks like Zhiya. Zong Fu looked at it and cried, lying next to the cradle and choking in a low voice: "Luo Ying, Luo Ying, our mother is dead, our mother is dead, my brother will definitely be the best for you in the future, and my brother will definitely be the best for you." Mama Hu was crying on the side, and Ulan Tuya said: "Zongfu, you will treat me as your mother in the future, and you can also move to this courtyard to live, and you can still see your sister in normal times." Zong Fu thought about this as soon as he thought about it, and immediately knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Ulan Tuya.
After the matter at home was over, Wang Maoru immediately returned to the presidential palace, and the presidential palace did not deposit too many things for him to deal with, but there was one more tricky matter, the British Indian state of Burma once again made a tentative invasion of Yunnan. In February 1897, the British invaders forced the Qing government to sign the "Supplementary Provisions of the Sino-Burmese Treaty", and the Mengmao Triangle was forcibly occupied and governed by the British in the name of "perpetual lease". The "rent" was set in 1899 at the annual printing of rupees of 1,000 rupees. And in 1913, taking advantage of the Chinese Civil War, the British forcibly occupied the Pianma region of Yunnan Province. Later, British explorers discovered large-scale silver deposits in the Banhong area of Yunnan, and the abundance of seven reserves made the British Indian Governor Rufus . Isaacs salivated.
