Within a few days, the spies reported: "Yuan Shikai frequently appeared in public and went to the Grand Theater with his lover Chunxiang to watch a play. Qin Xiaotian was very puzzled, "This is strange, could it be that he has been on guard and deliberately lured us into the bait." ”

"Is this very likely?" said Huo Kedong.

It was as if he had cast a big net, just waiting for the fish to take the bait. When the fish is hooked, he slowly closes the net, and we are the meat of the knife to be slaughtered by him.

Qin Xiaotian smiled: "Brother Huo is too worried, it hasn't been serious to this extent!"

The assassination of Yuan Shikai is a big thing, and we must do not have any flaws, otherwise, we will lose all our efforts. Okay, Brother Huo is reasonable, you can arrange it. The younger brother will do his best to do so.

Huo Kedong said: "This assassination operation is not about the large number of people, but the fact that there are too many people is wrong. "You have to choose a killer with strong martial arts and both wisdom and bravery, who do you think can be competent?" Qin Xiaotian buried his head in thinking for a long time, stood up and said: "Brother Huo, the younger brother is not talented, how about being willing to take a risk?" Huo Kedong clapped his hands and said: "Brother Qin has been crisscrossing the rivers and lakes for several years, and there are countless risks of all sizes, and he has tempered himself into an iron-clad tough guy, which I admire very much!" Regarding this assassination operation, I will send someone to secretly cooperate with you and let you dispatch. But I must emphasize one point: if there is any change in the middle of this operation, it must be canceled for the sake of everyone's safety, and we cannot act rashly.

Qin Xiaotian hugged his fists and said: "Brother Huo, the junior brother must take into account the overall situation, and let you send it." Huo Kedong nodded with a smile, Brother Qin is now one of the best martial arts masters in the world, and his light skills are above many masters, which makes me very relieved.

"Brother Huo has won the award. "Qin Xiao Tiandao.

After another two days, at night, the bright moon is gone, the frost hits the fallen leaves, the weather in the capital is very cold, but it is still lively. The streets are bustling with traffic, as if it were daytime. At the entrance of the big brothel in the capital, there is an endless stream of people, the most conspicuous is the rickshaw driver squatting in the corner, in order to make a living, squatting under the wall in groups, waiting for their God of Wealth to appear for a long and boring time. Some simply put their hands in their sleeves, and the snot in their nostrils was holding the thread, pacing back and forth.

At this time, Qin Xiaotian appeared at the door of the big brothel, he was dressed in a suit and leather shoes, and wore a pair of wide sunglasses, which was very different from his previous chivalrous attire. He shrugged his shoulders and walked unhurriedly into the big brothel. As soon as he entered the door, he picked up a relatively quiet room and sat down, which was rare and rare in this noisy paradise. After a while, a waiter came in and asked, "Sir, what do you want to order?" Qin Xiaotian was overjoyed, and thought to himself: "Brother Huo is still careful and has placed his own subordinates inside." He immediately understood, and said, "Would you like to give me a cup of coffee?" and the waiter replied, "Sir, wait a minute, I'll be right here." When the waiter turned around, he spread his palms, and left a few words on them: "Yuan thief is in the Chunxiang room." He gestured with his fingers again: the three of them, Qin Xiaotian suddenly understood. The waiter quickly erased the words on the palm of his hand.

After a while, the waiter walked in with coffee, and said with a smile: "Sir has been waiting for a long time, this is your coffee, please!" "I'll call you later, and with that, the waiter exited the room.

In the middle of the night, the laughter of the women of the big brothel gradually subsided, and they were busy living a life of immorality and shamelessness. In Chunxiang's room, it is still shining. She was drinking with Yuan Shikai. Yuan Shikai said drunkly: "Beauty, how about you have another drink with me?" Chunxiang replied angrily: "My lord, you see I'm drunk, Chunxiang really can't accompany you!" At this time, Yuan Shikai had already made Chunxiang burn, stood up, and said, "Beauty, my good beauty, why do you always spoil my interest?"

I saw Chunxiang's apricot eyes hooking the soul, the slender jade hand on Yuan Shikai's shoulder, looking at him affectionately, and said, "My lord, can I dance for you?" Yuan Shikai clapped his hands and praised, and said: "Okay, it's rare that a beauty has such a Yaxing today, I will be rewarded!" Chunxiang is worthy of a generation of talented women, she brushes the green silk, jumps up, she dances and sings, a song down, Yuan Shikai has already been in spring, raised a glass and drank a glass of wine, and said: "Beauty, keep singing!" Chunxiang pursed her lips and smiled, it was really a smile, and the beauty of Fanghua was peerless. One song: dot the laurel on the lips

(Late Ming Dynasty Wang Zhoushan)

Toad Pavilion Feiying, with him in the month in the autumn grows in. The frozen clouds are like daisies, and they conjure up the fragrant and strict realm. once ordered Qing'e, and the oath is as deep as the sea. The spring light is changed, the fragrance is ethereal, and it is also a race with the mountain.

Yuan Shikai heard it clearly, she had already compared laurel to a kind of longing, and deeply pinned on the pain of lovesickness. Seeing Chunxiang's face full of tears, flashing down along his face, Yuan Shikai was puzzled, drunk and hazy stepped forward and said, "Beauty, why are you crying?" I was born low and poor, and I met adults during the Mid-Autumn Festival the year before last, and it is rare for adults not to give up, so I have today.

Yuan Shikai said: "Chunxiang, why are you so polite? What's wrong with you today?" Yuan Shikai was very sensitive, and he could see that she was a little stumbling when she spoke, and at this moment, his wine was half sober. He shouted: "Someone is coming, hurry up and help Chunxiang girl to bed to rest!" Immediately a few maids came in to support Chunxiang, at this time Chunxiang was extremely uneasy, and said: "My lord, this is our clean place, I don't want these maids to disturb our interest." Yuan Shikai waved his hand, and several maids retreated.

"Beauty, I'm in a good mood tonight, let's continue drinking!" The adults are so elegant today, Chunxiang can only sacrifice herself to accompany her, and then accompany the adults to drink a few glasses.

The two drank a few more glasses, and Chunxiang suddenly became dizzy and hurriedly ran into the bathroom to vomit. Yuan Shikai struggled to stand up, and suddenly a black shadow flashed outside the window, Yuan Shikai shouted: "Someone is coming, there is an assassin!" The black shadow was very fast, broke through the window and jumped down, and a bright short sword took Yuan Shikai directly. Yuan Shikai is by no means an idle person, he leaned backwards, wanting to take the pistol placed on the bed, where is the black shadow willing to let go, the trick is vicious, and stabs Yuan Shikai in the heart one after another, where can he resist, only to hear a scream, Yuan Shikai fell to the ground in response, the black shadow stepped forward, and stabbed Yuan Shikai in the chest several times, he was already dead, sneered a few times, jumped out of the window and fled.

It turned out that a few henchmen brought by Yuan Shikai had already let the black shadow point to the sleeping hole, and was dragged to the corner, sleeping like a dead pig. At this time, Chunxiang stumbled out of the bathroom, saw Yuan Shikai covered in blood, and shouted: "Someone is coming, Master Yuan has been killed!" I saw Yuan Shikai get up from the ground, look at her viciously, and scolded: "You slut, Lao Tzu treats you well, you collude with outsiders to assassinate me!" Chunxiang was about to open her mouth to defend herself, Yuan Shikai slapped her in the face, Chunxiang covered Xiangxiang's face, and said: "My lord, I stayed at home all day, why do you say this?" If it wasn't for your collusion with outsiders, I suspect that there are spies of the revolutionary party here.

Yuan Shikai slowly took off his clothes, it turned out that he was wearing body armor inside, and he escaped by luck.

At this time, there was a big chaos outside, and the old bustard hurriedly came in to apologize, and said: "Master Yuan is blessed with great fortune, and he is blessed with great life, so it is good to be safe and sound." Yuan Shikai said angrily: "Old bustard, from today onwards, your brothel must be closed for rectification!" The old bustard did not dare to speak, and thought that he was unlucky, so he withdrew.

It turned out that the black shadow was Qin Xiaotian, he returned to the liaison station and said, "Brother Huo, the old thief is dead, the world is peaceful!"

"Are you sure Yuan Shikai is dead?" asked Huo Kedong.

"Yes, he has several swords in his body, and he will surely die. ”

I hope so, Yuan Shikai's old thief, everyone in the world wants to take his dog's life, and he was killed today, the whole country celebrates, and the people are lucky.

Early the next morning, the major newspapers in the capital immediately published shocking news: "On the evening of 5 October, Yuan Shikai, Minister of Military Aircraft, was assassinated in a large brothel in the capital. For this reason, the brothel boss has to be investigated, closed behind closed doors, and the murderer is being hunted down·········"

Huo Kedong's subordinates hurriedly took the newspaper and reported: "Door master, this is this morning's newspaper, please take a look." Huo Kedong and Qin Xiaotian had already guessed a few points, Huo Kedong finished watching it, and sighed: "Yuan Shikai is not dead!" Qin Xiaotian was shocked, "How could it be that he didn't die, is it ·······?"

Huo Kedong said: "Brother, I don't blame you, this may be the will of God." "God doesn't have long eyes, so that the old thief should not die.

Qin Xiaotian tore the newspaper to the ground, and it turned out that the old thief was wearing body armor, so that he would not die.

Huo Kedong persuaded: "Brother Qin, killing Yuan Shikai is a major event in the whole of China, as long as you do your best, everyone will have a good feeling in their hearts." "In this case, we have to come up with another plan, just let the dog thief live a few more days.

Now he must be on guard that killing him will not be easy to succeed, and we will cancel this assassination operation for the time being. Qin Xiaotian said: "Big brother, now that the capital must be strictly investigated, Yuan Shikai will send people to arrest the murderer everywhere, we should be prepared." ”

"It's natural. ”

Another month later, the spies came to report: "It is said that Yuan Shikai sent people to investigate the whereabouts of the "West Lake Smoke and Rain Map", and the major factions in the rivers and lakes are all over again, and they are ready to come out. Huo Kedong pondered for a long time before he said: "This is a repetition of Yuan Shikai's old trick, wanting to kill us all in one go." ”

Qin Xiaotian said: "Whatever? We are either born in adversity or die in adversity." "How many grievances in the rivers and lakes, there is always a time when it should be resolved.

One night, Qin Xiaotian and Huo Kedong drank wine, and suddenly a few of his subordinates helped a few people in, and when everyone saw it, it turned out that they were injured. Huo Kedong asked, "Who beat them like this?" One replied: "Please calm the anger of the door master, these were done by the Qing soldiers of Zhangde Mansion, and we worked hard to escape back." Huo Kedong gritted his teeth and swore an oath: "What a dog officer, the previous account has not been settled, and now he hurts my subordinates, I, Huo Kedong, will not take your head and swear not to be a person." ”

"Sect Master, now that many disciples of the Hengshan Sect and the Beggar Gang have taken refuge in the imperial court, I am afraid that they will unite against us and Qin Daxia. "Okay, these villains want to unite with the imperial court to seize the "West Lake Smoke and Rain Map", and I am waiting for them to grab it. Also, after the death of Qu Yijian, the leader of the beggar gang, the new gang leader Li Xiong must have been bought by Yuan Shikai and wanted to grab the treasure map and present it to Yuan Shikai. Qin Xiaotian said: "Li Xiong, this guy is not a good thing, I have fought with him a few times, his martial arts are average, he has already taken refuge in Yuan Shikai, and he can't become a climate!" Huo Kedong also instructed his subordinates that our liaison stations were no longer safe, and that we had to inform the people of each liaison station to move as soon as possible to avoid unnecessary losses. By the way, we must take good care of Li Lanhui's son and let him grow up in a good environment.

Qin Xiaotian stepped forward and said, "Brother Huo has thought it through, and the younger brother is very grateful!"

So, Qin Xiaotian and Han Liuyun decided to go to see Li Lanhui's son again, the child gradually became cute, he saw Han Liuyun, kissed her face affectionately, Han Liuyun affectionately hugged her in his arms, and then kissed him deeply on the face, and said with tears in his eyes: "Good boy, you must be well-behaved, aunts and uncles will often come to see you." The moment she let go, she was very reluctant. Qin Xiaotian stepped forward and took Li Shengmin's hand and said, "Child, you must listen to your uncles, when you grow up, will your uncle take you to a far away place to play?" Li Shengmin looked at Qin Xiaotian in a daze, and a sweet smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Early the next morning, Qin Xiaotian and Han Liuyun left the liaison station. When parting, the sky was full of red clouds, and the wind was surging, and they said goodbye to Huo Kedong in tears. Qin Xiaotian helped Han Wave to get on the thin horse and left in the dust.
