Wang Zhenpeng has been a little annoyed recently, since the four of us escaped from Beijing, Xuemei has become unhappy, asking her what is wrong but always not saying.

It wasn't until the British steamer was about to arrive in Shanghai that Yuan Jingxue found herself on the deck: "Brother Zhenpeng, I heard that your third brother is in Shanghai." ”

Wang Zhenpeng nodded and said, "Yes, our itinerary was also informed to him, that is, through the telegraph on the ship." What's wrong, Snow Girl? ”

Yuan Jingxue bit her lip and hesitated for a while before saying, "Can we not see him?" ”

Wang Zhenpeng was stunned for a moment and asked, "Weishenme?" He's my third brother! ”

Yuan Jingxue was very sad in her heart, she clearly remembered the bits and pieces of her father's life in the days of Zuihou, facing the south and scolding God for injustice, both Yuan Shikai and Wang Zhenyu? Even when his father was about to breathe, he still grabbed the hands of his brothers and said: "I'm old, I'm old, and I'm actually defeated in the hands of Cai Yi and Wang Zhenyu." ”

Yuan Jingxue always felt that she was already sorry for the Yuan family when she was with Wang Zhenpeng, and wouldn't it be even more rebellious if she went to see her father's enemy? But can you say this to Brother Zhenpeng? The little girl's tears of grievance swirled in her eyes.

This can make Wang Zhenpeng feel distressed: "Okay, good, if you don't see it, you won't see it, you allow me to write a letter of recommendation to Wenbai, and they have sent us all the way." When we arrive in Shanghai, we will change ships and go to Hunan, will we succeed? ”

Yuan Jingxue knew that Wang Zhenpeng still felt sorry for her in the end, so she didn't want him to make it difficult, so she naturally nodded busily.

As a result, Wang Zhenyu rushed out to pick up his fourth brother, but it turned out to be that he saw Li Dachao, a living treasure, plus Zhang Zhizhong.

"Li Dachao, what's the situation? Where's my fourth child? Gone? So what are you doing when you come back? Wang Zhenyu looked at Li Dachao with fierce eyes, as if this kid was hiding his younger brother, and his temper immediately came up, and he asked a series of questions.

Li Dachao couldn't bear such a fright, and hurriedly waved his hand and said: "The fourth master took the girl of the Yuan family to change ships and went directly to Hunan, saying that he missed the old lady, and after seeing the old lady, he came to see the old man." Just let me bring a letter and this Mr. Zhang to see you, handsome, the little one doesn't dare to talk nonsense. ”

"The girl of the Yuan family, which sister?" As he spoke, Wang Zhenyu didn't look at Zhang Zhizhong who was standing on the side, but took the letter and tore it up directly, looked at it a few times, and suddenly saw Zhang Zhizhong, the six words in white, his eyes lit up all of a sudden, and he forgot anything unpleasant.

"Oh, you are Zhang Zhizhong Zhang Wenbai! Haha, I've heard the fourth child mention you (yes?) When? It's great to finally see your deity today. Wang Zhenyu's enthusiasm surprised Zhang Zhizhong, is he famous?

Wang Zhenyu saw Zhang Zhizhong's expression and immediately knew that he was sick again, and quickly restrained a little enthusiasm and said: "Hehe, it's okay, since you are willing to join the revolutionary team, it is naturally welcome." However, there is no fighting for the time being, and the military observer mission to Europe has also set off. In this way, you will now hang a major in my attendant's office, and it just so happens that the attendant's office is going to be reformed and expanded recently, so you can participate in it. After the first regular class of Wuhan Lu University starts in August, you will go in to study, you are a friend of Zhenpeng, you have ideas and ability, just do it well. ”

Zhang Zhizhong hurriedly saluted: "I am willing to serve the handsome!" ”

Wang Zhenyu hahadaxiao said: "What a handsome, don't scream nonsense with Li Dachao, my current position is the chairman of the Military Commission of the National Government." Don't be handsome, it's like a warlord, hehe! ”

"Yes, Chairman."

"Well, by the way, the classmates before Zhenpeng are now also arranged in the attendant's place, just so you can get to know each other, meet and have a meal together." Wang Zhenyu instructed with great concern......

Wang Zhenpeng and Yuan Jingxue transferred to a ship from the Yuanjiang Shipping Company in Shanghai, and Jihua originally went directly to Zhuzhou to get off the ship, and then walked back to Baoqing.

But when the ship arrived in Wuhan, it was suddenly stopped.

A group of officers in beautiful white military uniforms got on the ship, directly found the captain to inquire about the passengers' information, and then knocked on the hatch where Wang Zhenpeng was.

Wang Zhenpeng didn't have him, so he naturally opened the hatch, and the officer who led the team was tall and mighty, and immediately gave Wang Zhenpeng a standard military salute, which made Yuan Jingxue grab Wang Zhenpeng's clothes again. Maybe it was because she left home for the first time, Yuan Jingxue, who was originally very bold at home, became a lot less timid along the way, like an injured deer, which made people feel distressed.

"Hello, my name is Guo Meng, I am the chief guard of the chief guard of the chairman of the Military Commission of the National Government, and on the orders of the eldest lady and the second lady, please get off the boat and go to the house for a while."

"The eldest lady, the second lady?" Wang Zhenpeng immediately understood, it should be the third brother who married two sisters-in-law, and he was very sorry that he came over without seeing the third brother in Shanghai, and the sister-in-law here sent someone on the boat to invite him, and it would be bad to refuse again. Wang Zhenpeng nodded, and then comforted Yuan Jingxue and said, "It's okay, just go with me to meet my two sisters-in-law, both are female dependents, you quickly pack up your things." ”

Since she was going to see her daughter, Yuan Jingxue's resistance was naturally not so great, and she obediently turned around and went to pack her things.

In fact, neither Ye Ziwen nor Zhao Yuting had ever seen Wang Zhenpeng, and sending someone to intercept the ship was actually Wang Zhenyu's order.

Because he was busy discussing financial and monetary reform with the five major banks, especially the Ningbo Gang, Wang Zhenyu could not rush back from Shanghai immediately, and his initial understanding of the fourth brother's move to go home without seeing him was that the fourth brother still had a knot in his heart. But after listening to Li Dachao tell him what happened in Beijing, Wang Zhenyu immediately understood, and he hahadaxiao said: "The girl in Yuan's mansion is worthy of being my Wang Zhenyu's own brother, and she actually soaked Lao Yuan's daughter in her hands, Lao Yuan, if you know underground, we have become in-laws, and I don't know what kind of expression you have?" Huh"

Wang Zhenyu said again: "I think this Yuan girl has emotions in her heart, and she doesn't want to see me, the enemy, hehe!" In this way, Wang Huaishi, you hurry up and send a telegram to Wuhan, so that the eldest lady and the second lady can receive the fourth brother and them, especially this Miss Yuan, to give people the warmth of home. Lao Yuan and I have no personal enmity, at best, we have different political views and conflicts of interests. In addition, let the eldest brother and the fifth child also put aside the work at hand, and the fourth child came back and invited him to dinner for me. As for Miss Yuan's return to Baoqing Mansion, I mean it slowly, I heard that my dad has been tempered recently, so it's best not to go back and touch his head! ”

Wang Longxian has indeed been bullish recently, and his temper has been big.

Since the establishment of the Nationalist Government, Wang Longxian has returned to the entrance of the cave. Not only became a member of the Dongkou County Council, but also was elected as the president of the Baoqing Chamber of Commerce (although this old man has never done a penny of business), and Wang Longxian is also a candidate for the election of members of the Hunan Provincial Assembly. There is no one in the township who is not hot, but they generally know that his family has a good son.

This Wang Longxian was just a follower of Wang Longzhong's father Wang Shizi in the early years, but now the father is more valuable than the son, and this official and that official have been a bunch of people, and this mentality is naturally very different. Because the family has money, he bought land everywhere in his hometown and expanded the house, which caused some pimples with Wang Shizi, the richest man and patriarch of the original clan, which is not what Wang Zhenyu likes to see, and he is still holding the clan uncle to sit in the center for himself. Therefore, after Wang Zhenyu heard Wang Longzhong mention this matter in Nanjing, he took a telegram overnight and asked his eldest brother Wang Zhenkun, who was in charge of the investment and construction of military projects, to put aside the work in hand and go home to do work for his father, so that he could be more restrained, and if he didn't want to be rich, he would not miss the old days. This Wang Zhenyu's original intention was haode, but he didn't think that this father's temper was indeed not small, and I don't know how the eldest brother persuaded him, anyway, the result of zuihou was that Wang Long first chased Wang Zhenkun in the uniform of the major general and escaped from the house. But it's not all without effect, at least a few days later, I received the news that my father went to Wang Shizi's mansion with some gifts, which can be regarded as mending the relationship.

Wang Zhenyu naturally knew that although Wang Longxian listened to the advice of his sons, he must still have qi in his stomach, and at this time, if Wang Zhenpeng took Yuan Jingxue back to his hometown, there was a chance that he would be deflated, so it was better to let this kid avoid the limelight in Wuhan first.

Wang Zhenyu suddenly found that he was now more and more concerned about people, and he seemed to have the so-called elder style......

Wang Zhenpeng and Yuan Jingxue got into an open-top Ford, and Wuhan's Wenlu is a three-story Western-style building that, unlike Anjiang, is not mixed with the office area. However, the security here is still very tight, and in addition to the guards at the attendant office, the police of the Wuhan Municipal Public Security Bureau patrol the streets 300 meters away. The gendarmes were also dressed in black uniforms and white steel helmets, and in groups of four, they drove by the roads around Wenlu from time to time in cars. There are four such patrol convoys, which patrol once in a while. Not far from Wenlu is the office area of the Military Commission, where a special service group is stationed.

Yuan Jingxue seemed to be nervous when she saw the armed soldiers, and her body snuggled tightly against Wang Zhenpeng, and she was not afraid of others seeing jokes. And Guo Meng, who was in charge of driving, also saw this through the rearview mirror, and he said, "Miss Yuan, don't worry, our chairman knows about you, and he asked me to tell you that he and Yuan Gong have no personal enmity, but they have different political views, which must be the same way Yuan Gong sees." The past is like the wind, since you are now at the Wang family, you will treat this as your own home. ”

Wang Zhenpeng felt that the third brother was really a caring person, and his eyes immediately fell on Yuan Jingxue beside him.

Yuan Jingxue's face was already flushed with shame, and her little head leaned on Wang Zhenpeng's shoulder, like a kitten......
