There is no virtuous in the Xianliang Temple, in this forty-nine city, everyone is passing on this matter by word of mouth, after all, this Xianliang Temple has always been the temporary residence of the local feudal officials when they came to Beijing, and now the feudal officials of the world have already kicked the emperor and the imperial court to the side, what the "Cao Cao" in the northeast, the "Li Yuan" in Tianjin, in short, the "masters" who carry bird cages in the capital can always arrange more than 100 charges for them, and as their representatives in the Xianliang Temple, those "councilors" will naturally follow the "master" has become a representative of "no virtue and no conscience", and naturally there is a saying that "there is no virtuous in the virtuous temple".
But no matter what the outside world says, one thing is undeniable, in the capital, officials can not buy the account of the Minister of Military Aircraft, but they will definitely do everything possible to tie up with those parliamentarians, because these parliamentarians symbolize the future to a large extent, especially the parliamentarians representing Tianjin and Wuchang, compared with Dalian, these two places respect the "scholars" more.
If a few years ago, he still needed to consider how to deal with everyone at the political meeting, then now, he knows the strength of the Northeast very well, from now on, what so-called politics, the so-called mediation, are meaningless, and now the Northeast is completely relying on strength to speak, especially after the Battle of Le Maire, the whole of China no longer has the strength to block the footsteps of the Northeast Army.
Everyone can see this truth, even before the battle of Le Maire, the councillors who live in the Xianliang Temple have seen it, and it is precisely for this reason that in recent times, they have been in contact with Li Guangguang and others to find out the movements of the Northeast, although they have never received an answer from them, but everyone knows very well that the answer itself is the end of the war with Russia, which is the day when the two million Northeast Army marched into the pass.
The victory in the naval battle of Le Maire only confused the minds of those councilors, and the victory in the naval battle may make them happy, but they also understand that soon, where will this army of tigers and wolves turn, and how will they deal with themselves at that time?
It is precisely this kind of question that makes the atmosphere in today's Xianliang Temple a little strange, almost everyone is nested in their own "courtyard", and the closed door is worried about the future, of course, not everyone, at least Li Guangguang did not close the door to thank the guests, near noon, a guest came to his courtyard, because it was an acquaintance, so he stayed for lunch.
The rice is North Korea's rice, there are only four dishes, two large and two small, the big plate is braised eggplant, a plate of scrambled eggs, and the small plate is pickled melon and sauce meat, not to mention rich, but it is not necessarily shabby, but if it is based on the standard of hospitality in Beijing at this time, this kind of meal undoubtedly seems a little shabby, not to mention that there is no wine, even this dish, it is difficult to see people. But almost every guest has become accustomed to the hospitality of the Northeast.
After Sheng Xuanhuai took a seat, Li Guangguang said with a smile.
"I don't know what Brother Xingsun has to do when he visits his younger brother today?"
"I can't talk about it, you know better than me about this matter in the court!"
Sheng Xuanhuai, who was sitting precariously, glanced at the simple and clean food on the table and said.
"The Praetorian Guard is coming back!"
The Three Towns Janissary Army, in the past few months, has been stationed in the area of Kulun and Zhang Heng, if it weren't for the Northeast Army not showing any defeat on the battlefield, I'm afraid that the army would have cut off the back road of the Northeast Army, but the Northeast Army didn't give them that opportunity.
"Well, I heard that it has something to do with the Liangjiang incident!"
The Liangjiang side is still holding on, Liu Kunyi has done a lot for the people of Liangjiang over the years, relying on the mouthful of blood he spit out to support it, and no one knows how long it may last.
"On the other side of the two rivers, you really didn't interfere?"
Again, Sheng Xuanhuai asked.
Shaking his head, Li Guangguang said.
"It was very sudden, and it was also beyond our expectations, but I personally prefer the awakening of the people, after all, the Han people, the Manchu people, themselves are a threshold that cannot be crossed!"
Sheng Xuanhuai nodded, whether it was the Northeast side planning Jiangning's affairs or not, but Jiangning's students' actions were like thunder reminding him of a fact - some things can't wait any longer, if they continue to wait, they may be preempted by others, and at this time, they must seize the opportunity.
"Brother Chongshan, you give me a word, handsome ......"
Raising his head and looking directly at Li Guangguang, Sheng Xuanhuai asked.
"Does the marshal have the intention of entering the customs now?"
When the dynasty was about to fall, everyone was looking for a way out for themselves, Sheng Xuanhuai was also looking for a way out for himself, and even the entire Beiyang system was doing this, after all, Lao Zhongtang's body was getting worse day by day, and whether it was the eldest son or the second son, they didn't have that ability after all.
What's the most sensible choice? It is to take advantage of the fact that there is still a little capital to fall to the most promising side, and only in this way can you get the most abundant returns.
"Entering the customs, you must enter, but ......"
Li Guangguang sighed helplessly and said.
"Dashuai is thinking about it now, as for our side, this is the right time...... Dude, what do you think? ”
Nodding his head vigorously, Sheng Xuanhuai's body leaned forward slightly, and said softly to Li Guangguang.
"From my brother's point of view, what is this opportunity now, if you cooperate from your side, my side will do it......"
At night, the clouds cover the fog, the moonlight is absent, in an alley near Desheng Gate, a big man in a navy blue police uniform is in a hurry, if it weren't for the fact that this person does not have a knife at his waist, I am afraid that people will be mistaken for a police officer on patrol.
The shadow of the moon flowed, and the alley echoed the footsteps of the big man and the barking of the earth dog, and the street lamp that had probably been smashed by the little hooligans was silently dark on the side of the road. Turning a corner, a few ghostly green lights flashed on the full garbage cans, the big man didn't pay attention, and walked straight over, and the wild cats or wild dogs that were still pulling the garbage just now jumped three and two and disappeared out of the sleepy moonlight.
Dahan suddenly stopped by the trash can, motionless and silent. Then he looked to the left and right for a moment, and then he flashed into one of the alleys, and then knocked on the door of a certain house, and after a few moments, the door was opened, and the shadow stood behind it.
"Come in."
In the ghostly black shadow flashed by, when he entered the courtyard, with the moonlight shining on his body, he finally saw his appearance clearly, if there are some big people here, they must be able to recognize this person, this person is the head of the Tianjin Beiyang Foreign Affairs Yamen - Sheng Xuanhuai.
"My lord, I don't know what you want to tell you to find the little one!"
The big man dressed as a policeman asked respectfully.
"Sit, Zhao Lizhi."
Sheng Xuanhuai smiled, looked at the person in front of him, and said in a slow voice:
"How's it going, are you busy at the police station today?"
"Hey, don't mention it, my lord, today, you don't know, the news of the great victory of the Northeast Army came, and the whole country seemed to have been bombed, no, the director and other adults were all talking there, let the brothers be on duty for a day, I just worked a night shift yesterday......"
Zhao Lizhi complained softly, and while complaining, he was speculating in his heart about what Master Sheng meant, as a patrol captain, in the eyes of outsiders, he was a terrible figure, but in fact, in the eyes of the adult in front of him, he was just a small person, a little person who was not worth mentioning.
"My lord, what do you command? As long as you say a word, the small one will follow the work of dogs and horses! ”
Zhao Lizhi's body unconsciously leaned forward when he spoke, and there was some expectation in his tone, the police in the capital are the same as the Praetorian Guards, all of them are banner people, but he is the banner of the Han army, and for him, there is not much difference between what Han people are full of, but this does not mean that he didn't see that now this banner man is not as good as a day, and some things must be planned in advance, and a few months ago, when the cronies of this grand man in front of him found him, he immediately switched to the court and took refuge in Beiyang.
In fact, how many officials in this capital are loyal to the imperial court?
And he's just a small patrol captain, what's the use of the other party looking for him? At first, he didn't know it, but slowly he figured out the other party's plan, especially after the Janissaries were transferred, he, the patrol captain in charge of two hundred patrol officers, was one of the eight captains in the forty-nine city.
"It seems that you have also noticed it, I am afraid that this day is going to change, and sometimes, it is good for people to stand there obediently and do nothing."
Sheng Xuanhuai said in a calm tone that if it weren't for the stakes, he wouldn't even meet with this little patrolman, let alone go out in person, but he had to come forward in person in this matter.
"My lord, what do you want over there?"
Zhao Lizhi was very calm, but there was a strong uneasiness in his heart, could it be that this day, has it really changed now?
"The sky changes, there are several changes, but there is one change, no one wants it, after all, this army is ruthless!"
Sheng Huaixuan still didn't say his purpose, but just continued to play dumb there, but Zhao Lizhi's back was already sweating, it was indeed ruthless, if the army entered the city, I really don't know how many people would die!
"The adult's compassion and compassion, the villain is really out of reach, if the adult has an order to the villain, the villain will do his best for the adult and Beiyang!"
Again, Zhao Lizhi showed his loyalty, and when it came time to change the dynasty, a little person like this must stand in line, otherwise, he really didn't know how he died.
"Your ancestors are Han Chinese!"
Sheng Xuanhuai still didn't directly say the reason why Zhao Lizhi came over, but asked Zhao Lizhi's ancestor softly there.
"Hey, let the adults laugh, the ancestors are not angry, and they became the slaves of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and the villain has nothing to do now, but only hopes to atone for the traitors on the ancestors!"
Scolding the ancestors?
In Zhao Lizhi's opinion, let alone scolding the ancestors now, as long as you can pass this catastrophe peacefully, what is there if you dig up the ancestral grave? Then again, wasn't the ancestor a traitor back then.
"You......"
Shaking his head, Sheng Xuanhuai looked at Zhao Lizhi in front of him, but he sighed in his heart, is this the so-called flag man? Hey, it's just pigs that have been raised for hundreds of years.
",...... Atonement"
With a long groan and shaking his head, Sheng Xuanhuai continued.
"It's not for nothing! Now, there's one thing you have to do! ”
As he spoke, Sheng Xuanhuai took out a check from his arms, and by the moonlight, looking at the check, Zhao Lizhi's breathing suddenly became short.
100,000 yuan!
"If this is done, not only can the sins of your ancestors be atoned for, but the 100,000 yuan will be your hard-earned money!"
Glancing at Zhao Lizhi, who was short of breath in front of him, Sheng Xuanhuai said in an accentuated tone.
"How?"
How is it?
Staring at the check, Zhao Lizhi knew that he had no way to turn back, and he also understood that the other party took out the 100,000 yuan, and this matter must be at risk of 100,000 yuan, but is it still possible to refuse now? As long as you refuse here, maybe your life will be lost over there, this, this is the time to change the dynasty!
Who is so soft-hearted?
Swallowing his saliva fiercely, Zhao Lizhi said in a deep voice.
"My lord, what I am doing here is not money, but to atone for the sins of my ancestors!"
Everyone is acting, watching the play, Zhao Lizhi is also acting, when he finished the play, when he left the house, he still had the check of 100,000 yuan in his arms, walking on the street like a ghost, in the dim place between the street lamps and the street lamps, the miserable white moonlight reflected on his body.
"This is the ...... It's hard! ”
With such a muttering in his mouth, Zhao Lizhi cautiously glanced left and right, as if he was afraid that others would hear his words, but now he only felt a slight chill on his back, which was all cold sweat.
"Your wife and children, before you went on a business trip, you had already asked someone to send them to the Tianjin Concession, and when everything is over, you can go to Tianjin to reunite with them?"
Thinking of Master Shan's words, Zhao Lizhi lit a cigarette, and the firelight reflected his pale and slightly distorted face. He knows that now his family has become the other party's bargaining chip, and if he doesn't do what he asks tomorrow, I'm afraid the other party will not be able to let go of his family first.
"Grandma's, this is a life-threatening job!"
Thinking about tomorrow's things, Zhao Lizhi stood on the side of the road and smoked silently, now he has understood, the other party is not just as he thinks, when necessary, open the city gate and lead the way, it is as simple as that, this year, it is the city wall, it can be bombarded into the sky with explosives and medicine, how can someone else lead the way?
"Hey, it's all the sins of the ancestors!"
Zhao Lizhi scolded weakly, now that he has seen through everything, at this time of changing the dynasty, it is impossible to live his small life comfortably, either he will do it, or when the dynasty changes, he will be slaughtered as the remnants of the previous dynasty...... (To be continued.) )
