Li Yunfan said that An Guotao may not be implicated in the incident of Kenji Ishihara's mutiny, which made An Ran feel that he did not understand what it meant.

An Ran asked, "Mr. Li, why do you say that?" ”

Li Yunfan said: "The reason is that he has never been to Gongrong Village, and you were originally just his righteous daughter, not his own daughter, with An Guotao's usual way of acting, he can completely put the responsibility on you, besides, whether it is the Japanese or the puppet Manchu government, An Guotao is needed to stabilize the local order, if something happens to him, the local business will suffer a major blow, so as long as there is no direct evidence that he participated in the mutiny, An Guotao will be fine." ”

An Ran's heart was cold when she heard this, as An Guotao's righteous daughter, of course she knew very well that old man's way of doing things, she had always been unscrupulous, and she was very good at evading responsibility.

And Tang Qianlin was still thinking about the relationship between the four kings of the Han surname and the four spirits, thinking about whether Liu Mouzheng would be one of Hushayi or Shashek.

Just when everyone discussed without any result, Bu Hongyi, who had returned home with a gift, closed the door, and was about to open the rice bag for inspection, but heard the sound of slamming the door from the opposite side.

Bu Hongyi did not open the door to check, but looked cautiously outside through the edge of the window, and saw several Japanese soldiers of the Mikawa team smashing open the door of the Japanese house opposite, rushing in, and quickly carrying away the fainted family of four and leaving quickly.

Bu Hongyi clearly remembered that the Japanese were the ones who had asked Ishihara where Kenji had gone.

It seems that Kenji Ishihara really launched an attempted mutiny, and the previous interrogation of the villagers was also to find out how many people were still involved in the matter.

Life hangs by a thread. Bu Hongyi let out a long breath, although he was brought to Gongei Village without his identity being completely exposed, some of the people who participated in Ishihara Kenji's plan had approached him, after all, he was a doctor, and in the event of a battle, the role of a doctor was no less than that of a soldier.

Bu Hongyi didn't understand whether it was a trap or not, and his identity was special, so he politely refused, saying that he was just a doctor and just wanted to live a stable life.

On the night of Kyoji Miyake's Mikawa team parachuting into Gongei Village, the sound of gunfire made Hiroki realize that this matter was not so simple.

When Bu Hongyi was collecting information about Gongrong Village, he also found that the Japanese had studied the ruins and underground bronze statues of the Bohai Kingdom, but he was not a Jianghu person or a professional, and he just thought that the Japanese were coveting Chinese cultural relics.

After the mutiny, Kyoji Miyake made that speech and kindly sent gifts, which not only made Tang Qianlin and others realize that something was wrong, but also alerted Bu Hongyi.

He realized that Kyoji Miyake was going to kill people, and maybe he had added something to those gifts.

However, he could not raise the alarm to the others, because according to his observations, many people in Gongrong Village had already believed the so-called "Greater East Asia Co-prosperity Starts Here" slogan.

There are such fools in every era, who say that their numbness is "keeping to themselves", not struggling or resisting, and being gradually submerged in the torrent of history.

Strangely, when Bu Hongyi examined all the gifts, he didn't find any toxins, which made him wonder, was the poison used by the Japanese undetectable by itself, or was nothing added at all?

Bu Hongyi sat there in a daze, looking at the table full of gifts, raised his hand and looked at his watch, it was less than a day before the League of Nations press corps came to Gongrong Village.

In Harbin, in the mansion of Liu Mouzheng, the owner of the Baxiangmen, An Guotao, who was in a suit and leather shoes, stood in the foyer waiting, dressed not like a prince at all, but like a businessman in the new era who often deals with foreigners.

When the servant brought the tea, An Guotao did not sit down, but just stood there quietly until Liu Mouzheng walked downstairs with a cigar in his mouth.

Liu Mouzheng said with a smile: "Lord An, come here, really let me give up ......"

"Don't talk about these façade words." An Guotao said coldly, "I'm just here to ask the master of the door, do the good things we said before still count?" ”

Liu Mouzheng said: "Lord Wang, let's talk in the study." ”

An Guotao didn't move, just looked at Liu Mouzheng.

Liu Mouzheng said: "Don't worry, I will definitely fulfill my promise." ”

An Guotao said: "In that case, please fulfill the door master." ”

Liu Mouzheng waved his hand to let his subordinates leave: "Lord Wang, please sit down, sit down and say." ”

An Guotao hesitated, and finally sat down on the sofa.

Liu Mouzheng personally brought the tea to An Guotao: "Lord Wang, but our transaction is still one step away?" ”

An Guotao frowned: "Didn't you say that as long as you do what you say, you will definitely keep my whole family safe?" ”

Liu Mouzheng smiled and said, "Lord Wang, haven't you forgotten what I said to you when I found you?" ”

Of course, An Guotao did not forget that after he reached an agreement with Kenji Ishihara to build Gongrong Village, Six Doors took the initiative to find the door and stop An Guotao from doing that.

At that time, An Guotao was very surprised, and he didn't understand why Liu Mouzheng knew about such a confidential matter? Liu Mouzheng did not explain, but said that his cooperation with Kenji Ishihara would sooner or later lead to death, and maybe he would be wiped out.

An Guotao is not stupid, and asked Liu Mouzheng what was the reason for saying this on the premise of expressing disbelief?

Liu Mouzheng didn't explain too much, but just asked An Guotao himself not to enter Gongrong Village, maybe there was still a glimmer of life.

This is why the "An Guotao" in the Anjia compound of Gongrong Village is a stand-in.

When Liu Mouzheng left, he told An Guotao that if Gongrong Village really killed his head as he said one day, he, Liu Mouzheng, might be able to save An Guotao's family's life.

That's why An Guotao is here at this moment.

An Guotao hesitated for a long time and said, "Lord Liumen, why do you know that Kenji Ishihara will ......?"

An Guotao couldn't help but not say the word "mutiny", and now when he heard these two words, his heart trembled, if he knew that Ishihara Kenji's purpose was this, he would not cooperate with him if he said anything.

Liu Mouzheng said: "Everyone's eyes are different. ”

Liu Mouzheng said and pointed to the teacup in front of him: "Some people can only see the teacup in front of them, some people can see the garden through the window at best, and I can see farther than anyone else." Kenji Ishihara's plan wasn't a mutiny, it was an assassination at best, doomed to fail, and I knew that it was what happened the night before, right? ”

An Guotao looked at Liu Mouzheng with incredible eyes: "Lord Liumen, I just received this news from the Kwantung Army Headquarters, how did you know?" ”

In order to get the news in the headquarters, An Guotao made a bloody investment.

Suddenly, An Guotao remembered something: "Could it be that you have seen Gu Yunrong, Lord Liumen?" ”

Liu Mouzheng smiled: "Do you think I can learn these things because Gu Yunrong told me?" Because you also know the content of Gu Yunrong's letter, let me tell you the truth, Gu Yunrong's letter was written by someone I found and sent to Gu Yunrong's daughter, that is, your righteous daughter An Ran. ”

An Guotao said angrily: "It turns out that you single-handedly pushed this matter and pushed me into the fire pit?" ”

Liu Mouzheng signaled An Guotao to calm down: "Lord An, it's not that I forced you to cooperate with Kenji Ishihara, nor did I force you to explore the secret that you should keep for the rest of your life, all of this is your own decision, and I tried to stop you, have you forgotten?" ”

Of course, An Guotao, a businessman, has not forgotten, he has always been a businessman, he only has interests in his eyes, and there is no secret guarded by the family at all, for him, that thing is worthless.

It is precisely because of this that he cooperated with Lone Army at the beginning and betrayed his family secret to Gu Yunrong, in exchange for the commercial support of Gu Yunrong's husband, that is, Utsunomiya Motohito, and also in exchange for cooperation with Mantetsu Co., Ltd.

An Guotao's tone softened a lot: "Lord Liumen, this matter is too involved, and I hope you can help!" ”

Liu Mouzheng said: "It's no problem to help you, but there are two conditions." ”

Just when An Guotao was about to speak, Liu Mouzheng preemptively said: "Don't say anything like 'don't say two conditions, even if it's 10,000 conditions, I will promise you', listen to me first, and then you will think about it." ”

An Guotao said: "What are the conditions? ”

Liu Mouzheng said: "The first condition is to tell the hiding place of the Yan family. ”

An Guotao's face changed.

Liu Mouzheng looked at An Guotao, who was embarrassed: "I know, even if you betray the secret you guard, you don't dare to betray the Yan family, because the Yan family is far more fierce than the Japanese, but this is to save your life." ”

An Guotao settled down and asked, "What about the second condition?" ”

Liu Mouzheng said: "The second condition is to do everything possible to let your righteous daughter marry Tang Qianlin safely." ”

"Tang Qianlin?" An Guotao was stunned, "Why do you want to marry Tang Qianlin?" ”

Liu Mouzheng said: "I said at the beginning, I am also for the Shaman Spirit Palace, Tang Qianlin and I have the same purpose, but it is inconvenient for me to come forward, I can only use him to do it, moreover, now Tang Qianlin's relationship with the Japanese is far more stable than my relationship with the Japanese, you marry your daughter to him, you are his father-in-law, plus you have never appeared in Gongrong Village at all, the Japanese will not do anything to you." ”

An Guotao sat there thinking about the connection, he really didn't know how good Tang Qianlin's relationship with the Japanese was, so good that he could save himself with a single sentence?

An Guotao asked: "Could it be that Tang Qianlin likes my daughter?" ”

Liu Mouzheng said: "It doesn't matter if he likes it or not, the important thing is that you have to find a way to let Tang Qianlin marry your daughter, and you must also let your daughter marry him willingly, otherwise, you will die, and your daughter will also die, even if she is half Japanese!" ”

An Guotao hesitated, hesitating.

Liu Mouzheng said again: "Also, as for the whereabouts of the Yan family, you don't have to tell me, you tell your daughter, let your daughter use this as a condition, let Tang Qianlin Mingmei marry her, I can only help here, and the rest depends on yourself." ”

An Guotao nodded silently, picked up the teacup, drank it in one go, and then slowly put down the cup.
