Chapter 25 Not to attract envy is mediocrity

The officials welcomed Li Hongzhang into the office yamen, Wang Bo was arranged to wait in a side room, and after a long time, a military attache came to say that Lord Zhongtang was invited.

Wang Bo followed the military attache forward, but heard a loud quarrel coming from the hall in front of him.

One person said: "Isn't there a few more foreign guns and a few foreign cannons in your inscription battalion?" Can you go faster than four legs? As long as my cavalry charges in one round, I can trample you! ”

Another humane: "A round of charge? Hum! As soon as the cannon goes off, you're all blown up, and you're all blown up, and you're going to have an egg! Who doesn't know how to talk big! Otherwise, let's practice, what kind of ability can be regarded as a mouthful, and how about seeing the real chapter under our hands? ”

"Come on, come! When was my cavalry battalion afraid! ”

"Good! Whoever doesn't dare to come is a grandson! ”

Suddenly, someone slapped the table, and then Li Hongzhang's voice sounded: "What kind of system!" Is this a busy market? You're still not a general in commanding the army, are you? It's a village shrew! ”

At this time, Wang Bo had already approached the door, and saw more than a dozen generals sitting on the left and right sides of the hall, and Li Hongzhang, who was sitting in the middle, looked angry.

In the center of the hall, two people stood and bowed down to plead guilty: "Your Excellency will be convicted of your guilt!" ”

Li Hongzhang looked up and saw Wang Bo walking in, his face was slightly gloomy, he pointed to the empty first place on the left, and said, "Wang Bo, come in, sit here." ”

All the generals and officials looked at Wang Bo at once, puzzled in their hearts, and secretly guessed: Who is this person, why does Lord Zhongtang value this person so much?

The two people standing in the center of the hall only glanced at Wang Bo, then withdrew their gaze and glared at each other, as if they wanted to pounce and bite each other to death.

Wang Bo didn't shirk when he heard this, he bowed and thanked him, and Shi Shiran walked over and sat down. Then he looked at the two people who were staring at each other, and thought, "They are all from the same army, why do they seem to have some deep hatred?" ”

Li Hongzhang pointed at Wang Bo and said to the generals: "This is Wang Bo, a native of Guangdong who won the gold medal of the 'Lion King' at the Lion King Conference. ”

The generals suddenly realized that they had a great merit to save the driver, no wonder! Otherwise, how could a mere martial artist be regarded as a supreme seater.

Suddenly, all the generals in the hall had different expressions on their faces, either disdainful, contemptuous, or disapproving of it, and some were quite interested, the one who dared to assassinate the master of the hall must be an extraordinary junior, since this person can block the assassin's assassination, he must have something extraordinary.

No matter what they thought at the moment, Li Hongzhang was the commander of their Huai army, and when they encountered assassins, the generals naturally had to show their loyalty impassionedly.

Of the two people who were glaring at each other, the man on the left suddenly shouted, "My lord, have you caught the assassin?" If I catch it, I, Liu Sheng, will cut the skin of the assassin and cramp it, light the sky lantern, and vent my anger for you. ”

Li Hongzhang waved his hand and said, "It's okay not to mention this." ”

Liu Shengan said loudly: "How can this work!" The Assassins are so rampant that they will be killed to make an example! ”

As he spoke, he clasped his fist at Wang Bo and said, "Dare to ask this strong man, you were there at the time, did you catch that assassin?" ”

Wang Bo looked at Liu Sheng'an, and saw that although he saluted and asked, his head was raised, his eyes showed contempt, and he looked condescending and arrogant, dragging it like a twenty-five or eighty-thousand, and immediately had no good impression of this person.

He didn't get up, he still sat on the chair, just arched his hand casually, and said lightly: "The person found one, but it was a dead person, and the body was snatched away, but unfortunately there were too many assassins' accomplices at that time, and my ability was limited, so I can't help it, I'm ashamed!" ”

Seeing that the other party was so rude, Liu Sheng'an's eyes flashed with anger, and he said, "Then you tell those assassins, and I, Liu Shengan, will immediately bring all the men and horses to destroy them." ”

The corners of Wang Bo's mouth curled, revealing a strange smile, and said: "Okay, the other party is easy to find, the assassin's accomplices are all the Russians in the Russian legation, oh, and I guess even the Russian tsar and the various princes and ministers of Russia have a share." This General Liu is so brave, I think these people will be able to capture them. Here I wish General Liu a victory and success! ”

Liu Shengan was speechless when he heard this, and the generals were also surprised, looking at each other, no one spoke silently, and suddenly the field became extremely quiet, and the needle drop could be heard.

Li Hongzhang looked at Wang Bo with a lot of appreciation in his eyes, but he didn't say anything about the secret fight between him and Liu Sheng'an, just sat there drinking tea and watched the changes.

Wang Bo glanced at the generals present, when these people dealt with their own countrymen, they shouted louder than the other, and when he heard the foreigners, he immediately shrank, and he sighed in his heart: "How can this not be the case in the real world!" Alas, if you think about Taizu alive, imperialism is a paper tiger, that's called a domineering! Lamentable! What a pity! ”

After a long time, Liu Shengan came back to his senses and asked, "Is this ...... The assassin is Russian? What's going on? He looked left and right, and the generals or picked up the teacup and tasted the tea, and nodded lightly from time to time, as if they had drunk the elixir and jade liquid; or look up at the ceiling, as if you can really see flowers on it; Or they looked down at the ground as if there was gold on it.

The person standing opposite him glanced at Liu Shengan even more gloatingly, walked to a vacant seat on the right and sat down, picked up the teacup on the table next to him, sipped the tea one by one, and sat there waiting to see a good show.

Suddenly, Liu Shengan's complexion became red and blue, and it was really a shot at the head, in the past, those brothers who hooked shoulders and carried each other, what kind of life and death together, now seeing that they are ugly, they all ignore it.

He was suddenly angry in his heart, but what he hated even more was Wang Bo, the old god sitting opposite, which was obviously preparing a trap for him to drill into!

He gritted his teeth loudly, but Haikou had already boasted, and he still said it in front of the commander, so he could only go down, and immediately bowed to Wang Bo again, and said in a deep voice: "I am a big old man, I don't understand these foreigners, and please tell me what happened here?" Why did the Russians assassinate Nakado-sama? ”

Wang Bo picked his eyes and squinted, seeing that although Liu Sheng'an tried his best to slow down his expression, but his eyes were full of hatred and anger, and he was hated for no reason, and he couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "Alas, if you really don't attract people's jealousy, you are a mediocre talent!" ”

He said lightly: "Then I'll talk about it, it's not right, it can only be said that you are shallow in the next generation, and you are grandstanding, don't be surprised." At present, Russia wants to invade and occupy China's northeast China, and Master Li opposes the acts of the imperial powers against China, which damages their interests in China. ”

"Therefore, these Russians set up an assassination plot, and at the same time, they knew that the Japanese were also attacking the northeast, and whether this assassination was successful or not, they could all be pushed to the Japanese as scapegoats, so there was this assassination."
