The heavens from Bailuyuan

Chapter 119 The Prime Minister's Death
Su Xun's words, I'm afraid there are not many people present who don't know, but those who can know and have the unity of knowledge and action are rare.

"Meihe doesn't need to be humble, we have all read about your courage in the newspapers..."

"It also raised a lot of face for us."

Bai Xiongqi said.

Everyone also laughed lightly when they heard the words, and the tense atmosphere was relieved in vain.

At this time, most of the people in the embassy were young and middle-aged, most of them were in their 30s and 60s, and some were in their [-]s and [-]s. No matter how you looked at them, they were all elders.

As for doing it secretly, that's another story...

Officials are all smiling tigers!

Besides, their minds are not so narrow-minded, and they are all happy to see their juniors grow into talents.

"Xiuzhu, you also get to know Bai Meihe..."

Bai Xiongqi turned around, and said to the girl in pink and white dress behind him.

The reason why Bai Xiuzhu returned to China with him this time is also because he has reached a certain marriageable age.

The parents of the Bai family would not accept marrying Bai Xiuzhu to a sister from the country of Ken, so they planned to let him, the elder brother, look for one or two and choose a husband-in-law.

Choosing a husband does not necessarily depend on family background, but also on success.

At this moment, Bai Gui can be regarded as the leader among the students studying in Japan.After returning to China, the job will not be low.Even if he is not in office, he is in the field, relying on the ability to write novels by hand, he will be rich and honorable.

Moreover, he has also read Bai Gui's novels and some Dongying writers' news about his platform.

Know that this man is a smart man, with wit.

Won't do anything unwise.

Let’s talk about it first, and if it doesn’t work, talk about it. Anyway, marriage is the order of the parents and the words of the matchmaker.

Parents are not here, the eldest brother is the father.

"Xiuzhu..., I met Mr. Bai."

Bai Xiuzhu's face turned red, she also knew Bai Xiongqi's thoughts, she immediately settled down, stepped forward and stretched out her hand.

Plain hands are wearing long-sleeved gloves made of lace yarn.

Western-style handshake.

Bai Gui paused, and stepped forward to shake hands.

"Presumably your peers should have a lot of topics, so it's inconvenient for me to be present."

"Please also invite Meihe to entertain my sister-in-law for a while."

Bai Xiong wanted to point out something, nodded to Bai Xiuzhu, and didn't allow her to refuse, walked to the other side, chatting and laughing with other people.

"Sister Xiuzhu, please!"

Bai Gui was a little surprised, but also understood a little bit.

The two sat on the sofa just now.

At first, Bai Xiuzhu was a little shy, but as they talked, she gradually became acquainted.

Brother Xun, who was waiting, was stunned for a moment when he saw this, and he felt uncomfortable all over his body, as if he was a little redundant. Suddenly, many insights arose in his heart, so he wrote in future novels: The tragedy of human and human Huan is not the same, I just think they are noisy.

……

Time passed slowly, and it was almost dawn.

A plainclothes man walked in from outside the embassy, ​​covered his face, whispered to Minister Wu for a while, and then left quickly.

"The prime minister of Japan was assassinated!"

"Assassinated by the Artemisia!"

Minister Wu turned around, looked at the people who had been waiting all night, and said slowly.

In the ballroom, everyone was shocked when they heard the words, with different expressions.

Known as the Bismarck of the Far East, the prime minister of Japan, who has dominated the Far East for so many years, from the adopted son of a samurai family in the Changzhou domain to the prime minister of a country, the iron-blooded prime minister who helped Japan from a colony to a powerful country, is this the end?dead?

And he was assassinated to death!
Many people couldn't believe it.

But I have to believe that the gunshots last night were probably also looking for Haoli assassins.

"Quick! Prepare the telegram. I want to communicate to the Shanghai Stock Exchange and send it to Ambassador Hu..."

"This is bound to have a great impact on the forces in the Far East!"

"Re-examine the relationship between the Qing Dynasty, Haoli, and Dongying..."

Minister Wu's face changed slightly, he informed the left and right secretary offices, and hurried into the office. This matter is of great importance and he cannot be careless in the slightest.

This matter is probably not a secret to the people in Tokyo. After all, there must be a reason for the gunshots last night.

But for the Qing Dynasty..., the news is delayed, so it is not necessarily the case.

After a while.

"You can go!"

It was the clerk with gold-rimmed glasses who came in again and said.

The celebrities who had been waiting for a long time in the ballroom also breathed a sigh of relief. First, a few people walked out. Seeing that there was nothing serious, more and more people walked out.

Soon, the dance hall was sparsely populated.

"Let's go! It's our turn to go too."

Bai Xiongqi walked up to Bai Gui, and took away Bai Xiuzhu, who was excited about the conversation and was still full of ideas. He glanced at Bai Gui, with a slight smile on his tense face, "Meihe, sister-in-law and I have to stay in Dongying for a while." Time, I will talk to you in detail when I count down."

He acted vigorously, and immediately left the ballroom with Bai Xiuzhu as soon as Bai Gui finished his speech.

Not a moment stands still.

"I should leave too."

Bai Gui also got up, Brother Xun had said goodbye to him just now, and he also left the address of the newspaper, it was easy to find, it was in Wenjing District.

Bunkyo District is the gathering place of major colleges and universities, high schools, and elementary schools in Tokyo, and newspaper offices are also opened there, because the target group is students studying in Japan and students of various schools.

At this time, only the intellectuals could read newspapers, and there were only a small number of ordinary people who could read and buy newspapers.

out of the ballroom.

Outside the embassy, ​​we saw rickshaws running back and forth, as well as some panicked civilians.At the corner of the street, there are also newsboys hawking the newspapers that came out early in the morning, all of which are from the three major news agencies.

There was an endless stream of people buying newspapers.

These newspapers have official news, and it is estimated that they printed and published the news of the assassination of Bismarck in the Far East last night.

This is also very understandable, the assassination of the first meeting, these things cannot be hidden.

"A copy of each issue of the Asahi Shimbun, Yomi Shimbun, and Mainichi Shimbun!"

Bai Gui took out a five-cent coin from his pocket and handed it to the newsboy.

The types of newspapers sold by newsboys may not be complete, but there must be newspapers from the three major newspapers.

Sure enough, at the first glance, the news of the assassination of Bismarck in the Far East was published in the newspapers, and it also occupied the headlines.

He read the newspaper while waiting for the carriage.

After a while, I finally waited for a carriage, got on the carriage, and rushed directly to Hachioji City.

One high, stay in the dormitory of Japanese students.

"When the prime minister dies, Dongying must hold a state funeral. You and I are students studying in Japan. If you are still staying at the school, you will inevitably be forced to participate in the state funeral ceremony. I am the deputy minister. I can apply for leave from the student department and the school, and generally I will not refuse it. , this is in line with the process..."

"I just arrived from the embassy, ​​I guess the school doesn't know yet..."

Bai Gui said to more than 80 students studying in Japan under his jurisdiction.

"Ask for leave!"

"Quickly ask for leave! I don't want to attend Dongying's state funeral."

Although Bismarck in the Far East is a great figure to Dongpu, his hero is my enemy!
Participating in the state funeral in Dongying, no one would agree.

Therefore, it is correct to ask for leave as soon as possible to avoid unnecessary conflicts.If you don't choose to ask for leave, but insist on fighting with Dongying on this day, then you are overthinking your capabilities, and there is no need for it!
