Myth: Heaven and Earth

Chapter 154 The Position
"Brother Fang, you know that Mr. Lu is the number one assassin in the world who stabbed Cixi to death!"

"You are the court's traitor, and he is the court's nemesis. He wants to see you, and he has no plans for you. On the contrary, as long as Mr. Lu solves your troubles without saying a word, at least the court will stop for a while."

When Fang Tian and the others heard this, they all turned into stone statues.

what?
The number one assassin in the world who stabbed Cixi to death?

Cixi is dead?

what?
The murderer who pushed foreigners flat and drove them out of Shanghai in a panic? !

"He wants to see me?" Fang Tianru was in a dream.

Lin Heier smiled and said, "That's why I said it's a good thing. Let's go, Brother Fang, don't delay, let's go see Mr. Lu. I believe that he will help you when he knows about you."

Fang Tian was surprised and delighted.

Surprised that this fierce man can be so fierce; happy that if I can get his help, at least for a short time there will be no more worries!

Although Fang Tian didn't know that Ci Xi had been killed, since Lin Hei'er said so, it probably made no difference.Furthermore, the current situation in Shanghai was caused by that person alone, so killing Cixi didn't seem like a big deal compared to it.

As for whether to be secretive or not, although Fang Tian is not a smart person, he is not a stupid person either.In the current situation, Cixi must not die. In the precarious situation, if there is news that Cixi is dead, the building will collapse.No one in the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty was willing.

Immediately made up his mind: "Okay, I will follow my sister to meet this fairy!"

A little girl ran over and grabbed Fang Tian's sleeve.

Fang Tian patted her on the head: "Daddy will be back soon."

This is his daughter, Fang Hong.

It was evening when Fang Tian followed Lin Heier all the way to Xu Baoshan's residence.

Someone had already brought them to the living room.

In the living room, Lu Heng was biting his pen, saying something to Xu Baoshan, who had a wonderful face.

He asked Xu Baoshan for paper and pen just to draft the treaty.A joke with Lin Heier earlier, but the more Lu Heng thought about it, the more reasonable it became.

You can't just sign a treaty between Man Qing and foreigners who grovels and sell their country and people. He, Lu Heng, also wants to sign a treaty with foreigners, and he has to sign it the other way around!
So every time he drafted an article, he would read it with Xu Baoshan and ask Xu Baoshan to give his opinion.

So Xu Baoshan looked very exciting.

For example, the first one is to abolish all unreasonable tariff treaties in Shanghai, and in turn increase tariffs on imported goods from the West. This tariff will be used to maintain the development of the Maternal and Children's Association.

Xu Baoshan said: "Foreigners will definitely not agree."

Lu Heng said with a smile: "Of course I know they won't agree. Tariffs are not just a matter of collecting that little tax, but a matter of the entire business trade. However, if I don't make the conditions higher, how can foreigners Know the lesson!"

Every time Lu Heng puts forward one, it shocks the world—at least in this era.

Whether it's tariffs, improving workers' treatment, prohibiting discrimination against nationals, and treating foreigners equally, they all deal a severe blow to foreigners.

Almost wiped out the privileges of foreigners in Shanghai.

The more Xu Baoshan looked at it, the more exciting his expression became.There is almost nothing to say.

Fortunately, it was only limited to Shanghai Bund, Xu Baoshan agreed after thinking that foreigners might bargain.But if it is enlarged to the whole of China, it is absolutely impossible to do it.

Lu Heng also recognized the same, so this treaty is only limited to Shanghai Bund.

At this time, Lin Hei'er and Fang Tian arrived.

Lu Heng put down his pen, looked up and saw Fang Tian, ​​what a big northern man!
Lin Heier had told him about Lu Heng's appearance earlier, and immediately cupped her fists: "In the lower sky, I met Mr. Lu."

He hugged Xu Baoshan again.

Lu Heng waved his hand: "Sit down and talk."

He said: "I heard that the Qing court wanted you for disobedience in Tianjin. I'm quite interested. Let's hear it."

Fang Tian then told him about him one by one.

He was originally a leader of the Tianjin garrison, with thousands of people under his command.At the beginning of the invasion of the Eight-Power Allied Forces, the foreigners fought without declaration, but Fang Tianli insisted on resisting, which violated the imperial court's non-resistance order at that time.

After a bloody battle, he joined forces with the Boxers and succeeded in blocking Langfang.

Although the loss was heavy, it was very encouraging.

But the Manchu Qing court immediately ordered him to be arrested, to kill him, and to make amends to the foreigners.At that time, Man Qing was lucky and did not declare war with the foreigners, so he thought of calming down the matter, just like punishing the general Enhai who killed the German envoy, he treated Fang Tian the same way.

Fang Tian couldn't bear the bird's anger, and his surviving brothers couldn't stand the bird's anger either, so they fled Tianjin with Fang Tian.

After being hunted down all the way, he came to Shanghai and met Lin Heier, and only then did he temporarily gain a foothold.

Fang Tian and Lin Hei'er are old acquaintances. Lin Hei'er is the eldest sister of Tianjin Hongdengzhao, and Fang Tian is the commander of the Tianjin garrison. When the imperial court issued an edict to recognize the status of the Boxers, the Boxers and the army had an intersection. Tian thus had a friendship with Lin Hei'er.

"I see."

After hearing this, Lu Heng laughed loudly: "Foreigners are rampant, it's just right to give them a good look! General Fang is a man, Lu Heng admires him!"

Fang Tian didn't dare to say it, but he was relieved.

Lu Hengdao: "The Qing government sent people to hunt you down. The person who chased you is now appointed as the middleman between me and the foreigners. He will come here later. I told him clearly that you are righteous men, and I, Lu Hengbao, will protect you!" "

Fang Tianchang took a deep breath, stood up and bowed: "Thank you, Mr. Lu!"

Lu Heng supported him: "No need to do this!"

Said Cao Cao, Cao Cao.

A young servant reported that General Yan Xiaoguo had arrived.

Xu Baoshan gave an order, and after a while, the servant brought Yan Xiaoguo in.

When Yan Xiaoguo saw Fang Tian, ​​his eyes froze, but he knew where this place was anyway, so he didn't make any trouble, so he just cast a ruthless glance, and first cupped his fists at Xu Baoshan: "Master Xu."

Then his eyes fell on Lu Heng: "My Xia Yan Xiaoguo, by the order of the court, come to pay a visit to Mr. Lu!"

Lu Heng looked up and down, this man really looked fierce, he waved his hand: "Yan Xiaoguo, right? What does the court want you to do as a middleman?"

Don't let him sit down either.

Yan Xiaoguo said seriously: "In order to mediate the conflict between Mr. Lu and foreigners, the imperial court gave me full power to act."

Then he clasped his fists and bowed: "Mr. Lu, although you are not a member of the imperial court, what you do is what I want to do but dare not do. Yan Xiaoguo admires you!"

Lu Heng showed a little surprise: "You are quite interesting."

He said: "Okay. But before that, there is one thing that I have to make clear to you."

Pointing at Fang Tian, ​​he said, "I heard from your tone that you hate foreigners. General Fang fought bloody battles with foreigners, but was arrested by the court. What do you think?"

Yan Xiaoguo's expression changed: "I know that Fang Tian fought bloody battles with foreigners, and this is what I thought in my heart. But he disobeyed the imperial court's order! The imperial court is getting more and more difficult. If the people below still disobey the order, how can this situation be maintained? Can't be maintained Given the situation, how can we resist the foreigners? As the saying goes, the ruler wants his ministers to die, and the ministers have to die. It is reasonable for me to be ordered to hunt down and kill them."
