Chapter 193: Transformation of the Five Elements (II)

As soon as Xu Changqing walked out of the labyrinth, he felt that there were more than a dozen martial arts masters guarding the garden, and it seemed that it should be someone like the Chen family's nursing home. When he left the garden, An Zhuang, who had been informed, happened to walk over quickly, and saw that his face was stern, as if something had happened.

Xu Changqing frowned slightly, and asked, "Is something happening to the Chen family?"

"No, the Chen family's business is a qiēshun lì. An Zhuang shook his head and said, "Three days ago, there was news in the capital that Lord Zhang Zhidong Zhang had passed away. ”

Hearing these news, Xu Changqing felt a slight pain in his heart, although when he was in the capital, he also knew that Zhang Zhidong's body had run out of oil, and there was not much left of Yangshou, but he still couldn't help but feel sad when he heard the news.

Xu Changqing took a few deep breaths hard, and said in a slightly trembling voice: "How long have I been in?"

"It's been a month and a half. An Zhuang replied truthfully: "The master originally wanted to wait for you to come out and enter Beijing together, but because I don't know when you will come out, so yesterday morning, the master took a boat to Beijing first." Sir, would you like to book a ticket to Tianjin tomorrow morning?"

"No need!" Xu Changqing waved his hand, calmed down completely, and asked as he walked towards his room, "What about my two little guys?"

"After the two young gentlemen retreated for a week, they both stayed with the third young master, saying that they were instructing the third young master to practice. An Zhuang followed closely behind him, hesitated for a moment, took a few quick steps, reached Xu Changqing's side, and said: "Three days ago, Mr. Qiyuan had secretly arrived in Shanghai, and he ordered the villain to pass a message to Mr., saying that it had been more than two years since Mr. Taohuashan, and thanks to Mr. Taohuashan's guidance, I was able to gradually grow stronger, I hope to see you this time, so that I can thank you in person." ”

"Mr. Qiyuan?" Xu Changqing stopped, turned his head to look at An Zhuang, and said, "Isn't it Mr. Huang Xing Huang Xuanwu?"

An Zhuang nodded and said, "Exactly." ”

Xu Changqing hesitated for a moment and said, "Okay, I also want to meet him, you are responsible for arranging it!"

After returning to the room, Xu Changqing closed the door and sat on the chair in front of the window, quietly thinking about the future direction of the land of China. Zhang Zhidong's death undoubtedly became the last straw that crushed the camel's back, the most powerful pillar of the Qing court was also lost, and the regent Zaifeng, who was subordinate to the orthodoxy of the Qing court, was bound to lose his power, and the patriarchal faction of Prince Qing Yikuang and the Beiyang faction of the Beiyang Sanjie were also bound to rise in power, and the Qing court was afraid that it had become a situation of the three kingdoms at this moment.

There are two people who have benefited the most from Zhang Zhidong's death, one is Yuan Shikai, who is fishing in the countryside of Henan, and the other is Sun Yat-sen, who has been traveling overseas after listening to Xu Changqing's construction. Zhang Zhidong is like a mountain pressing on Yuan Shikai for him, as long as he still has a breath, he doesn't dare to let go of his hands and feet, after all, Zhang Zhidong's protégés and former officials are all over the world, even in the Beiyang Army, there are many people from the Zhang faction, which is also the biggest reason why he does not dare to act rashly. As for the Chinese businessmen that Sun Yat-sen recruited overseas, there were also many people who were unwilling to let go of their hands and feet to support the revolutionary army because of Zhang Zhidong, you must know that the enlightened idea advocated by Zhang Zhidong in those years of middle school as the body and Western learning as the application not only influenced a generation, but even within the League, there were many people who highly respected his thoughts.

"Sir's death has brought the two hidden dragons a chance to ascend to heaven, I'm afraid that the land of Huaxia is about to enter an eventful autumn again!" Xu Changqing sighed involuntarily. He opened the divine eyes on his forehead, looked up through the window and found the natal stars of Yuan Shikai and Sun Yat-sen very lightly, and saw that the Ziwei Emperor Qi of the Qing court was gradually transferring to the two, and there were also many generals who were moving closer to the two, and it would not be long before there would be a situation of division and struggle. On the other hand, the fortune of the Chen family is gradually detached from the pattern of China Avenue, and there is a tendency for birds to fly in the sky.

At this time, someone knocked on the door outside the room and said, "Sir, have you rested?" Chen Dejun has something important to ask to see Mr. ”

Chen Dejun is Chen Deshang's fifth brother, Chen Deshang's generation has a total of five brothers, the eldest and the second died young, although Chen Dejun is the third, but in fact the eldest, the fourth Chen Dewu assisted Chen Tao in the United States to create the Chen family's lineage, and Chen Dejun has been working hard in Shanghai. If the Chen family can gain a firm foothold in Shanghai, a place where dragons and snakes are mixed, and become the leader of Chinese and foreign businessmen in Shanghai in just a few years, Chen Dejun can be said to have made great contributions.

For such a person with outstanding ability but willing to work hard silently, Xu Changqing was very respectful, stood up, personally stepped forward to open the door, and said, "Fifth master, please come in!"

I saw a middle-aged man dressed plainly dressed and with gray temples walking in with a briefcase in his hand, and his ordinary appearance was hard to imagine that this was the helmsman of the Chen family in Shanghai. After Chen Dejun came in, he was not polite, turned on the light, sat at the desk, and took out a copy of the article from his leather bag.

Xu Changqing walked up to him and asked puzzledly, "Fifth Master, what is this for?"

Chen Dejun picked up one of the documents and handed it to Xu Changqing, explaining: "When the third brother left Shanghai, he said that if Mr. Qiē Affairs in Shanghai did not leave the customs, it would be up to me to decide, and if Mr. was out of the customs, it would be decided by Mr. and I together. This is a copy of the information of a Brazilian coffee plantation in South America, Xiao Tao and the fourth brother have seen it, they both think it is good, and they want to buy it, but this plantation belongs to a British company, and the owner of the company is now in Shanghai, so ......"

"Wait!Fifth Master, you should know that I won't interfere in these business matters!" Xu Changqing didn't take the information, and refused: "Presumably, Chen Weng didn't expect that I would be out of the customs so quickly when he left, so he said that, Fifth Master, you still have to decide these things alone! ”

"How can this work?" Chen Dejun looked embarrassed, as if there was something unspeakable, and finally made up his mind to say bluntly: "Actually, I have been talking about this matter half a year ago, but I always feel that there is something strange in it, and I have never been able to make up my mind." Sir, after you came, I wanted to ask Mr. to give me a staff officer, but who would have thought that Mr. would actually retreat and retreat, and more than a month has passed at once. In a few days, the president of the British company will leave Shanghai and return to China, and now my husband is just out of customs, so I will take advantage of the order given by the third brother when he left, to disturb him, and I hope that he can help me with this!"

As he spoke, Chen Dejun was about to get up and salute Xu Changqing.
