Lin Yuan said: "Don't Lord Jiang know the truth that the three armies of the Dao have not moved, and intelligence comes first, if it were not for our victory on the intelligence battlefield, the current capital would have been in flames of war a long time ago!" ”

Jiang Qingyuan was speechless by Lin Yuan, so he had to stand back in the crowd, and all the ministers stopped talking.

Emperor Guangxu saw that everyone was silent, so he said: "Lin Aiqing eradicates the spies, you must vigorously cooperate, and you must not obstruct without reason, and those who violate it will be charged with treason for collaborating with the enemy!" ”

The ministers went back separately and didn't dare to say anything more, but Lin Yuan's actions went more smoothly.

Lin Yuan then informed the embassies of various countries and informed them of the espionage acts of Toushan Man and others one by one, and the envoys of various countries originally wanted to take this opportunity to extort a sum of money from the Qing court, but when they saw that Lin Yuan's evidence was so detailed, they dispelled the evil thoughts.

In order to deal with these traitors and spies as soon as possible, Lin Yuan did not go through complicated trial procedures, and all the leaders such as Tou Shanman and Hu Liang were publicly shot, and on January 20, three days later, Tou Shanman, Hu Liang and other spies were all shot dead, and the property of these people, as much as one million taels of silver, was taken by Lin Yuan as his own and kept for future development.

For those traitors who betrayed intelligence, Lin Yuan looked at the severity of the situation, the big leaders were shot one after another, and all the others were sentenced to the northeast, which happened to require a lot of labor for the development of the northeast. In this operation to punish spies and traitors, Lin Yuan also paid attention to promoting social reforms, mainly in the judicial aspect, abolishing all physical criminal laws such as Ling Chi, hanging, beheading, and car splitting, and replacing them with shooting; During interrogation, torture is strictly prohibited to extract confessions; And abolished the system of joint sitting in which one person broke the law and the whole family suffered. After three days, the matter of spies and traitors came to an end. Lin Yuan knew that what happened during this period of time, such as the women's visiting team and the legal reform, could arouse a thousand layers with one stone, so he urgently needed the reaction of the high-level officials of the Qing court, so he thought of Guan'er.

Lin Yuan always felt guilty when he thought of her, she treated herself very well, but because of her heavy military affairs, she always ignored her, if it weren't for all kinds of things, she would always not think of her.

Lin Yuan walked out of the house and quickly returned home, the housekeeper Liu San was surprised and delighted when he saw that it was Lin Yuan who came back, and was just about to report inside, Lin Yuan stopped him and walked into the yard lightly.

Previously, the Qing court gave many of Long Wu's family members to Lin Yuan as slaves, but Lin Yuan did not let them stay, but let them go to work in the yarn factory, so there were not many people left in the house, and the courtyard was very quiet.

Lin Yuan came to the outside of Guan'er's house lightly, and heard a whining cry coming from inside the house, a sadness spread in Lin Yuan's heart, and he didn't care about knocking on the door, he pushed the door open, and Guan'er in the house heard someone suddenly break in, screamed in fright, and fell to the ground with a "snap" of something in his hand.

Lin Yuan saw that Wan'er's eyes were red, and he was about to ask a question, but he saw Guan'er cheering and pounced on Lin Yuan, how could he be a little sad?

Lin Yuan gently hugged her in his arms and asked, "Why are you crying?" ”

Wan'er picked up the fallen things from the ground and said, "It's all about this." ”

Lin Yuan realized that it was a book, but after seeing the cover, he was so surprised that his eyes almost fell out! The two big black characters on it: Jane Eyre!

This is a novel written by the British female writer Charlotte Brontë, it entered China in the thirties of the twentieth century, Lin Yuan sees it now, it is as rare as a modern person on the way to work to see dinosaurs, Wan'er said: "Jane Eyre is so pitiful, no one else likes her." ”

Lin Yuan hurriedly asked, "Where did this book come from?" ”

Guan'er said: "Sister Wanqing gave it to me." ”

Lin Yuan thought to himself: "Wanqing, you are really not afraid of anything!" Books with love and love can be made banned in this era, such as "Dream of Red Mansions", which was once banned, but Guan'er can get in touch with the high-level people of the Qing court, and you dare to give her this book. ”

Lin Yuan thought for a moment: "That's not right! How did Wanqing know Wan'er? I didn't introduce them to each other! Also, Guan'er didn't know words before! Who taught her? So Lin Yuan asked, "Who is Sister Wanqing?" Shen Wanqing? ”

Wan'er was full of envy on Shen Wanqing's face in advance, and said, "Yes! I know her from Qiu Jin's sister, she is really amazing, none of the girls I know can catch up with her, if only I could catch up with half of her. ”

Lin Yuan thought to himself: "I wonder what they will say about me when they get together?" Lin Yuan took a deep breath and thought, "Let's ask serious things." Lin Yuan then asked, "Have you entered the palace these days?" ”

Wan'er said coquettishly: "You are busy with all kinds of things when you come back, and you don't even know if I'm not at home, and now you're embarrassed to ask me where I went?" I don't want to tell you. ”

Lin Yuan thought to himself: "Guan'er seems to have changed a lot, and now she dares to be coquettish with me, it turns out that she won't say two if I say one." Lin Yuan smiled softly: "Okay, it's me who is not good, can't I think of compensating you in the future?" Hurry up and tell me, have you been there these days? ”

Guan Er snorted and said, "Now you have to say it, what method do you use to compensate me, if the method is not good, I will not agree." ”

Lin Yuan smiled: "Say, what do you want me to use to compensate you?" ”

Guan'er thought for a while and said, "I heard Sister Wanqing say that the sea is beautiful, but I've never seen it, can you take me to see it?" ”

Lin Yuan almost laughed when he heard this, and thought to himself: "This request is really bloody!" Even the worst romance novels don't bother to use such plots! "But after thinking about it, she has been in the boudoir for a long time, although she dares to go out to play now, how can she run so far to see the sea?"

Lin Yuan couldn't help but feel a little sad, he smiled: "Okay, I promise you, you can say it." ”

Guan'er said: "I go there a lot these days. ”

Lin Yuan asked, "Then tell me, what is the reaction of the Queen Mother to what happened recently?" Like a girl entering the barracks, I reform the law of things. ”

Wan'er thought for a while and said: "Lafayette didn't say much about girls going to the barracks, just said that such things have only been heard in the play, Mu Guiying is in command or something, reform the law, she just said, only use a gun to deal with these people, it's really cheap for them!" ”

Lin Yuan asked again: "Then what was the expression of the Queen Mother when she said these things?" ”

Guan'er said: "Lehehe, she looks very happy, she knows that on the day the girl entered the barracks, she also ordered Mu Guiying to be in charge, but she was tired to death." Lin Yuan thought to himself: "Isn't watching a play a happy thing?" How can you get tired? ”

Lin Yuan then asked, "Don't you like to watch dramas?" ”

Guan'er said: "The masters watch the play, we can only stand on one side, and we can't move around at will, I stood all night, and my legs are swollen." ”

Lin Yuan knew that the high-level did not oppose his own affairs, so he put his mind at ease, although he was not afraid of the people in the Qing court, but he didn't want to tear his face with them now.

At this moment, someone came to report: "Lin Shuai, urgent military situation!" ”
