Lost and Spy

Chapter 223 The Truth Comes Out
"Master Meng, smoke."

"Oh, Master Meng, your water is getting cold, I'll change it for you."

"Master Meng, this is the old duck soup made by my wife. I brought it here for you to try."

Sitting in the warden's office, several jailers surrounded Meng Shaoyuan, constantly waiting to please him.

The warden, Wu Yaozu, stood there with a mournful face, waiting to be summoned at any time.

"Old Wu, don't be so restrained. Well, this old duck soup tastes good and delicious." Meng Shaoyuan was full of praise: "Old Wu, standing in line is very important. You said that you are also an official, although you are an official. Officials in the International Settlement, but the officials don’t help the officials, what do you think you are thinking there.”

"Yes, yes, Master Meng taught you the lesson." Wu Yaozu nodded repeatedly.

The door of the office was pushed open, and Zhu Yanni walked in with a small bag, twisted and twisted, and her graceful figure made the eyes of the jailers shine.

But only Wu Yaozu knew how terrifying this woman was.

"Hey, I said Xiaozhu, this is a prison after all, you can't just come here and make this place your home?" Meng Shaoyuan actually had the nerve to say so.

"This is the place, if you let me come, I won't come... Hey, what are you eating?"

"Old duck soup, it tastes good. It's made by my grandson's wife. Try it."

Zhu Yanni took a bite: "It's delicious, it's delicious. Old Sun, your wife's cooking skills are good."

"Thank you for the compliment, thank you for the compliment."

Zhu Yanni took out three ocean dollars from her small bag: "Your reward."

"Oh, you are my grandma, thank you very much."

The other jailers were all dejected.

Three oceans, how many ducks can you buy?

His mind was spinning quickly, and he began to think about getting something delicious to honor this Master Meng at night.

Zhu Yanni looked at the pale-faced Wu Yaozu: "Old Wu, don't worry, your wife and children are fine, and I will send you back when the matter is over."

Meng Shaoyuan immediately said: "Give Lao Sun another sum of money, so as not to panic."

"Don't dare, dare not." Wu Yaozu said repeatedly.

"Don't be hypocritical." Meng Shaoyuan said with a smile: "Being an official for thousands of miles is to make a fortune. You said that as the warden, how much money did you get from the prisoners? Those who give money have better living and eating conditions, and those who don't have money. , then it will be hard. Old Wu, you are wrong.

Those bandits, bullies, rogues, you might as well extort more, but what about those poor people?Some of them were wrongfully imprisoned, and some were forced to commit crimes. If you blackmail them, it seems inappropriate, right?
They are afraid of your power, and dare not say it openly, but secretly, they don't know what to call you.Maybe, you will be unlucky in the future and lose power, no one can guarantee that, right?What do you do if you fall into their hands? "

"Yes, yes, Boss Meng taught me the lesson."

Wu Yaozu didn't dare to answer a word, only dared to nod frequently.

Meng Shaoyuan didn't care whether he could listen to it or not, in short, he had said everything he had to say.

……

"Mr. Kong Shan, in your opinion, what should we do now?"

Du Yuesheng's size was a little messed up.

A series of continuous and precise blows, as well as internal and external pressure, and the pressure of public opinion, have already made him a little out of breath.

He never expected such a result.

Just because he offended a secret agent.

"Mr. Du." Li Beiye sighed: "Although I don't have anything long and only wear white clothes, I do have some friends after all. My friend in Nanjing told me that the Japanese are not afraid of Meng Shaoyuan, so how can they be afraid of us?" .

In these extraordinary times, Mr. Du is a man of integrity, and he resolutely does not associate with the Japanese. I admire him very much.However, the use value of us has almost been squeezed out, and the national government does not need us anymore.

Since ancient times, the cunning rabbit died, the running dog cooked, the birds were exhausted, and the good bow was hidden.When Mr. was working for the Chairman, the Chairman naturally allowed Mr. to do whatever he wanted. Even if he offended Kong Xiangxi, he could still turn a blind eye.

now what?The chairman has gained a firm foothold, and he can still get through such a big event as the Double Twelve Incident. The friction between China and Japan continues. The chairman is the only leader in China. People like us, he can't see him anymore. .

Moreover, we did a lot of dirty things for him in the past, and we couldn't see them all. What if it leaked out?Mr. Du, think about it from another angle.

Mister did offend Kong Xiangxi, but why did he suddenly come to trouble you at this time?Is he trying to trouble you, or is someone trying to warn you not to talk nonsense? "

Du Yuesheng was startled: "Could it be..."

"It's the one at the top!" Li Beiye sighed: "Mr. Du's relationship with the French Concession deteriorated back then, so he got close to the Kuomintang. A major general is a councilor, but it's not easy to be an official.

For the flood in the Yangtze River, it was a good thing for you, Mr. Du, to contribute money and efforts, but the chairman gave you a plaque of "good deeds and good deeds", which you accepted and hung in the most conspicuous place.Wang Jingwei gave you a plaque of "benevolent people love things", but you also accepted it, and it was juxtaposed with the chairman's plaque. This is a big taboo.There are no two days, and they cannot coexist.

You originally had an enmity with the Workers and Peasants Party, but then they found you and asked for your help, and you agreed to give them money, goods, and help them transfer personnel. Do you think those people in the Lixing Society don’t know?Do you think the chairman doesn't know?This is another bogey.

During the Double Twelve Incident, you urgently called Zhang Xueliang, willing to take yourself as a hostage in exchange for the chairman of the committee. If you have been so loyal, the chairman should always be grateful, right?But when he returned to Nanjing safely, all the meritorious personnel were commended, but where is Mr.?Not even a word of encouragement.

Sir, have you ever wondered why this is not?
Huang Jinrong is smart. The chairman used to worship him as an old man, but when the chairman became the commander-in-chief of the Northern Expedition, Huang Jinrong burned the apprenticeship stickers in front of him, and then he was called "commander-in-chief" one by one. Shouting, whoever mentions the past, Huang Jinrong will immediately turn his face.This is true devotion!

From then on, as long as Huang Jinrong passed his birthday, the chairman would definitely send someone to present a birthday present.This is actually telling my husband and Zhang Xiaolin that no matter how old you are, you will never be too big!

sir?Generous and forthright, informal, chatting with people, always talking about how the Chairman, Dai Li and others were in Shanghai back then.This is the third bogey.For those who hold great power, it is all right for him to say how poor he was in the past, but others cannot.

The reform of the currency system, sir, has suffered a lot of losses. If you lose money, then you will accept your fate. How can you make a steady profit without losing money in speculation?But the gentleman was so angry that he forced Kong Xiangxi to compensate you for the loss.

Who does Kong Xiangxi represent?Not himself, nor the national government, but the chairman of the committee.

Sir, you are confused.How dare you demand compensation from Kong Xiangxi?Are you telling the chairman in another way that the reform of the currency system is possible, but it cannot cause you, Du Yuesheng, any loss, otherwise you, Du Yuesheng, will not give anyone face? "

Du Yuesheng was suddenly covered in cold sweat.

Li Beiye shook his head slightly: "If my predictions are correct, Meng Shaoyuan is not representing Dai Li, nor Kong Xiangxi, but the chairman of the committee! Finally, the chairman is thinking about old feelings, and just sent someone to warn you. Otherwise, it would be hard to say what."

Du Yuesheng broke out in cold sweat: "I almost missed a major event, Mr. Li, what should I do now?"

"Think about it. Why is Meng Shaoyuan so arrogant and domineering? Why doesn't he save you any face in front of so many people? He is warning you, even reminding you. He is here, a little spy Why did the Boss in Shanghai do this in front of him? He came with a mission, and the person who gave him the mission is no small matter. Behind any abnormal thing, there is a deep meaning behind it, but it is a pity that Mr. Du Didn't see it."

Li Beiye smiled wryly: "So in this sense, Meng Shaoyuan is not an enemy, but a friend, no, an ally. Mr. Du, whether you can save your life depends on this ally!"

"Then what should I do now?"

"Meng Shaoyuan has already left a step for you to go down. It depends on whether Mr. Du can catch you. Doing what he said is nothing more than losing some face, but everything Mr. Du currently has can be kept."

"I understand, I understand."

Du Yuesheng murmured, and then he stood up immediately: "Quick, come with me to Tilan Bridge."

……

"Meng Section Chief, I really don't understand. After all, Du Yuesheng is a respectable person in Shanghai Bund. If you treat him like this, it is too disrespectful to him. He will definitely not be able to step down."

The jailers in the office had all gone out, and Zhu Yanni couldn't help asking out her doubts.

Meng Shaoyuan put his feet up on the desk and smiled: "Kong Xiangxi suffered a lot in Shanghai back then, but now he is an important minister of the country. Do you think he is really free to talk to Du Yuesheng? Someone else instructed him to do this. It's not because he wants Du Yuesheng What a shame, but to warn him to keep his mouth shut and not to do what he shouldn't do."

"Anyone else? Who?" Zhu Yanni didn't quite understand.

"No one can offend that person."

"Where's Mr. Dai?"

"He wants Mr. Dai's life, with a snap of his fingers."

"Could it be..."

"Just know, don't say it." Meng Shaoyuan stopped the other party: "Mr. Dai told me that this is a trip, but what is it actually? It doesn't sound like me, Meng Shaoyuan.

Look, why are those colleagues in Shanghai station cooperating with me so fully?It's not because of my face, Meng Shaoyuan, but because they have already received instructions from above.If Du Yuesheng is smart, he will come soon.Otherwise, hey, I'm afraid he won't pass the first month and a half. "

Zhu Yanni understood: "What if he..."

"No." Meng Shaoyuan said with certainty: "Even if he can't think of it, someone around him will help him think of it. Otherwise, how do I know that He Xiquan will come to arrest me and lock me up with Dao Huzi?"
