Chapter 62 Parties
Great Qian's Empire, Qianjing.
"What does this Southern Party mean? Didn't you say that you want to elect me as the Great Commander? What's going on? They themselves chose again? Yuan Shiren asked angrily.
"This, this..."
There was a group of admirers kneeling in the room, and no one dared to answer him.
Feng Xibei was guarded by four soldiers and a gendarmerie officer, and was on his way back to his hometown to study.
He was originally the battalion commander of the 80th Regiment of the 20th Division of the Northern Army, and together with Wang San and Shi Si, he launched the Luanzhou Uprising, but was suppressed.
Wang San and Shi Si were killed, but he was saved by his uncle and sent back to his hometown of Kang Gezhuang in Baoding to study and repent.
At this time, he was still a simple patriotic non-commissioned officer. There is ambition to climb up, but it is not as hypocritical as it was later. Seeing that they were almost in Baoding, several people sat in the teahouse on the side of the road and chatted.
Everyone knows that 6 Jianzhang is not bad to his nephew, and he was very polite to him along the way.
But Feng Xibei was always depressed, said very little, and sat in the teahouse and looked around. The gray weather in the northern winter, the remnants of snow on the roadside, this monotonous and desolate scene, always made him want to scream.
The Luanzhou uprising failed like this? So many of his comrades-in-arms died like this? I'm done like this? Thinking of the unknowable fate of the future, this tall man who climbed up from the soldier step by step, his mood was as gloomy as this scene.
In the distance, two horses galloped from the north, passing by the teahouse. Feng Xi HK They saw clearly that they were two officers wearing military police uniforms, with dusty expressions.
The little officer who escorted Feng Yuxiang had already shouted: "Lao Zhao, Lao Zhou!" Where to go? ”
The two horses rushed out a few paces and were strangled back by two officers. Seeing that Feng Xibei was there, both of them nodded and turned over and dismounted, and strode towards the teahouse.
Both of them looked very serious, nodded slightly towards Feng Xixi, and pulled the little officer aside to talk in a low voice. The little officer was startled at first, then shook his head, and waited for someone to take out a note to show him, and then he nodded in silence for a long time.
"Since the 6th Military Gate said so, I still have something to say, but afterwards, please protect the 6th Military Gate."
The person who came smiled and said: "Xikui, you are not much more courageous than a rabbit, when will the 6th Military Gate give our subordinates a loss?" You can rest assured! No harm to you. ”
The two of them walked up to Feng Xixi and looked at him carefully, Feng Xixi didn't know what was going on, he had seen these two people by 6 Jianzhang's side.
Knowing that it was his uncle's confidant, he stood up, a head taller than them: "Two, is there something to find someone Feng?" ”
Two officers pressed him down and sat opposite him, and one of them took out a foreign letter from his satchel, about two hundred yuan, and an envelope: "Brother Huanzhang, Lord Yuan is very annoyed by the affairs of Luanzhou. I must kill you, the 6th Military Gate can't protect you anymore! ”
Feng Xixi was taken aback, he knew that it must be Yuan Shiren! Otherwise, no one in the north would dare to call him "Lord Yuan". In the end, he said calmly: "You are here to enforce military law?" That's fine, I don't want to be an only child for a long time, where to do it? ”
The person laughed and said, "Why are you so dead-eyed?" said so, but how can there be no flexibility in this officialdom? We'll go back and give you a report and we'll be done. Brother Huan Zhang, who is the beloved nephew of the military gate, how can he not take care of him? Junmen entrusted us with a plate fee, and a ticket to Shenhai, Brother Huanzhang will leave quickly! The north was stunned for a while. ”
Feng Xibei was really stunned: "Don't kill me?" The world is so big, where can I go? ”
The person who came looked at each other and said solemnly: "I explained when the military gate came, Brother Huanzhang, don't be active in the Northern Army anymore!" There are a lot of people who know you, so let's avoid it in the south first! There, Lord Yuan couldn't take care of it for a while. In the future, with Brother Huanzhang's great talent, there will always be a day when we will meet again. ”
Watching these officers leave him behind and roar away, Feng Xibei was in a daze with the bag of foreign money. His roots are in the north, although he escaped his life this time, but when he goes to the south, he has no relatives, how will he live? But now it's important to save this life first.
He looked to the south, and the northern fields were still cloudy, and he couldn't see the way out.
The Qianjing City, in this year, also completely lost the majesty of the center of the imperial capital.
Once upon a time, the people who lived in this place controlled the land of 60 million square kilometers in East Asia, and their majesty could not be violated.
But at this time, under the dim lights of the Qianqing Palace, there was only a thin middle-aged woman in flag costume, holding a child and crying.
This woman is naturally the real ruler of the current imperial court, the Empress Dowager. That little kid was the last emperor of the Great Qian Empire.
More than a dozen relatives and nobles looked at the Queen Mother there mourning and crying, and they could only look at each other. It was only after a while that the eldest prince spoke.
"The Queen Mother takes care of the phoenix body, there is nothing else to say in this situation, only typing!"
King Qing snorted beside him: "Then transfer troops to fight, anyway, the one from the People's Party is called Wang Feng, but he is approaching Xuzhou, and it is still too late to ask Yuan Shiren to transfer troops to fight." ”
As soon as he finished speaking, several hateful eyes focused on him, and the minister of the Military Advisory Office, the young magnate Liangbi, was the first to shout.
"Yuan Shiren? That's a living Cao Cao! The current situation of the Queen Mother has to rely on ourselves! ”
Hearing Liangbi's words, there were two or three people, and more people nodded together, but they were still shaking their heads.
"It's easy to say, now that the soldiers are all with Yuan Shiren, we can only transfer 15,000 Praetorian Guards, who will take them to fight? Are you or me? Your brother Tieshan lost Jinling City, ran from Shenhai to the outer city, and did not dare to return to Qianjing. You brothers, this is how you rely on yourself? ”
As soon as the box was opened, these relatives and nobles were much better at accusing each other than coming up with ideas. Voices mingled in the empty Qianqing Palace. The voice was thick and high, and finally provoked the little emperor to cry.
The Queen Mother finally spoke, and her voice was very good.
"Several of them are uncles and uncles today, and none of them have made up their minds, but they are arguing with the emperor. Tell me, are we going to fight or make peace? A few days ago, Yuan Shiren said to fight, but as a result, he took away 80,000 taels of gold from our mother and son, and saw that Tian'er had no movement. Now that the Kuomintang division commander Wang Feng is coming north from the railway, we can't wait and see! Just a few, pity the two of us, come up with an idea. The emperor and I don't want to be rich and noble for all generations, we always want our mothers, don't have a good end. ”
When she said this with a crying voice, it aroused the sorrow of several relatives and nobles, and she immediately sobbed with her.
Only King Qing was funny in his stomach, he was full of it back then. Even if Yuan Shiren gains power, he will not embarrass him at all, a rich man will always be unable to escape.
But looking at the little emperor who was still ignorant, he couldn't help but feel a little sad in his heart. This 300-year-old country is now seeing that the number of qi is over, and if this child is asked to bear the pain of losing the country, what is he innocent? I only hope that Brother Yuan can remember some old feelings and save this orphan and widow............
In later generations, when Wang Feng seemed to watch "Drunken Fist Three", King Qing's daughter seemed to be married to Yuan Shikai as the queen, and I don't know if there is really this plot!
He wiped the tears that he had squeezed out, and dragged his crying voice to comfort him: "The Queen Mother and the Emperor Wan'an, if you fight now, you really don't have the strength to fight." The treasury is empty, and the inner son must always keep some for the emperor and the queen mother. The foreigners are now neutral, and the previous loan contracts are now suspended... Speaking of the army, there are only 7 towns and 100,000 troops of the Praetorian Guard in the north, and they are barely able to protect themselves, but they definitely have no strength to quell the chaos. ”
He looked at the Queen Mother, and she looked very listenable. continued: "Now we can only let Yuan Shiren negotiate with the KMT, and it is of course good to be able to keep half of our country, otherwise... There is no immortal country in the world, let's abdicate with dignity, now it is not as good as in the past, there are so many Westerner countries, and there is an old minister Yuan Shiren, who can always ensure the honor and dignity of the queen mother and the emperor after abdication..."
Before he finished speaking, the bloody Liangbi had already spit on his face, this Liangbi was still wearing a military uniform in the court, and at this time he rushed over and pulled Yixiao's braids.
"King Qing, you old dog! If you hadn't shielded Yuan Shiren and received the military power into our hands earlier, would you have been able to have today's affairs? The Qingji official company opened by your father and son, what is Yang Cuixi doing with Duan Zhigui? Don't think we're enough of the scourge? Now he wants the emperor to abdicate again, is this what a courtier can say? If it weren't for the fact that everyone is a royal descendant, I would have spent on you old bastard! ”
He pulled King Qing's pearl hard, and it suddenly fell on the blue bricks of the Qianqing Palace.
He looked at the Queen Mother, and his eyes were red: "The Queen Mother!" Now there are still half of our Fu children in the first town, plus the strength of the Praetorian Guard, and then the troops of the Thirteen Banners are drawn from the Sanzhou Road in Liaodong, and the minister is willing to take these 30,000 children to the south to find the People's Party desperately! Even if you die on the front line, it's better than watching these bastards and betraying the country here! ”
He glanced at everyone in the hall and strode out.
The eldest prince also wiped away his tears there, and shouted with his arms folded: "Liangbi said it well! The Queen Mother, the three hundred years of the Great Cadre cannot be counted! We can't stay in the north, we can still go to our hometown in the north, contact the woolly bear and cherry blossoms, and compete with the Central Plains! ”
King Qing smiled coldly, wiped the foam on his face, and said to himself: "Although I persuaded the emperor to abdicate, I still regard this world as our great cadre, but you insist on throwing our ancestral inheritance into the mouths of Mao Xiong and Sakura people!" The queen mother, the emperor, and the ministers are also thinking about the future. To listen or not to listen, anyway, the old minister's words have already been said. Hearing these hairy children shouting and shouting to kill, it is really a headache. The old minister first reported his illness and went back to his house to recuperate. Whoever wants to take my crown, or even my life, can only wait. ”
Watching King Qing walk down the hall calmly, this prince, who has always been slippery and afraid of things, is so hard in front of the prince and Liangbi today.
Everyone knows that he is relying on Yuan Shiren behind him, but there is really no way to take him. Although Pu Wei and Liangbi screamed loudly, they were just talking.
The Queen Mother also understood very well in her heart, she looked at the relatives and nobles who were still at a loss in the hall, thought about it again, hugged the little emperor and began to cry again.
There was a sudden horn outside the hall, and there was thunder in the winter, and the eldest prince rushed out of the hall and knelt down in front of the empty palace ban, and he shouted like crazy: "Grandpa! Master Tai! Open your eyes! The Great Qian Empire is about to die! ”
