A flower of the Republic of China

Chapter 16
1,
In terms of strength and prestige in the business community, Shen Yunpei is not as good as Zhang Jian.
The Dasheng Spinning Mill founded by Zhang Jian has now become a gold-lettered signboard. The Kuixing trademark has spread all over the country. "Dasheng Textile Co., Ltd." was officially registered with the Ministry of Commerce and obtained the patent right of "not allowing other companies to set up spinning mills within 20 years". , How much power and strength is this?Zhang Jian has also become a figure that various factions are vying to recruit, and Yuan Shikai is no exception.Speaking of the relationship between the two of them, the Renwu Mutiny occurred in North Korea in the eighth year of Guangxu. Zhang Jian followed Wu Changqing’s army to Seoul to suppress the rebellion. At this time, Yuan Shikai was also in Qingziying. Asking him to study with Zhang Jian is considered a teacher-student friendship.Although there was some unhappiness between them later, no one would take it to heart as things have changed.Especially in recent years, Zhang Jian of the constitutional school and Yuan Shikai have had frequent exchanges. Zhang Jian believes that only Yuan Shikai has the ability to clean up the chaos in the world today.He is a staunch supporter and ally of Yuan Shikai both publically and privately.As a pioneer advocating industry to save the country, Zhang Jian understands the importance of railway transportation better than anyone else. He has already built Tiansheng Port along the river west of Tangzha in Nantong. If the Longhai Railway Terminal can be built here to connect the inner road and waterway, For him and the whole of Nantong, it is a once-in-a-lifetime good thing.So when the railway terminal was set at Haizhou, which Shen Yunpei insisted on, what Zhang Jian felt was a kind of fooling and betrayal.
Shen Yunpei is still complacent about being able to persuade Yuan Shikai to win benefits for Haizhou.As everyone knows, this is a great gift carefully planned by Yuan Shikai, the purpose is to let Shen Yunpei be grateful to become his party, and lay the foundation of connections for the future.We must know that Shen Yunpei is a powerful figure in the court. Although his assets are not as good as Zhang Jian, he has a calm and moderate personality. He never makes enemies in the court. It is obvious to all.The most important thing is that Shen Yunpei is a person with a strong family and local concept, and such a person is easier to control.Relatively speaking, Zhang Jian is more of a scholarly spirit, and for the so-called truth and justice, he can risk all his wealth and life, and he will not hesitate to burn everything.Yuan Shikai learned this point many years ago, and he will not repeat the same mistakes.
When the news spread back to Haizhou, the city was shaken. Some of the people didn’t know the benefits of the railway, but Wei Yucen and others knew about it, and they took the trouble to explain it to everyone. People from the business circles in Zhoucheng partnered to make a gold plaque-the bottom of the huanghuali was inlaid with gold characters, and the four big characters "Jianshan Family" were written on it, and it was sent to Shen's house with gongs and drums.Wei Yucen understands that his position in the hearts of Haizhou people has not been embarrassing all these years. When he cooperated with Du Wenjing at the beginning, many people were very clear-eyed, but it is difficult to say because of his family background.Later, he followed Shen Yunpei, whether it was to revitalize the family business or to make money, but the Chinese people who value integrity looked down on him.Now that they are willing to do this, it seems that they even forgive him.So I worked extra hard, asked the craftsmen to rush to work, and found the most famous dragon dance team in Shili Baxiang, and must express this enthusiasm and gratitude to the fullest.
Mrs. Shen has been in good and bad health for a while, so she can't easily come out to see guests.This time, I specially put on a new Susi coat and jacket, and asked Dongmei to greet her in the living room in person.Shen Xiaoru and Wen Qingyun were considered juniors, they took the teapot from the servants and filled the cups for the guests.
Wei Yucen stroked his beard and smiled, "Ma'am, this is a great joy. Our Haizhou has an ancient history. I think that when Confucius climbed mountains and watched the sea here, we had Kongwang Mountain. Now Master Shen has repaired the railway. When we arrive at our door, who will dare to underestimate our place in the future? Speaking of which, this is the blessing that the Shen family has brought to the people of Haizhou City, and we are here to thank the Shen family on behalf of the people."
Mrs. Shen smiled and shook her head, "Boss Wei, please don't say that. My lord always said that it is one's duty to be an official to benefit one party. No thanks."
Shopkeeper Wen of Tianxiang Pavilion said: "What is Ma'am talking about? Thank you, and thank you again! Ma'am, you don't know if you don't go out at home. It's messed up outside, and everyone cares about their own happiness. Who cares about the lives of ordinary people? Shen Ma'am, let me put it bluntly, our Haizhou City has always been guided by your Shen family, but now that we have reached this point, we need your Shen family to speak up!"
Mrs. Shen glanced at Wei Yucen, and Wei Yucen hurriedly said, "Shopkeeper Wen, why can't I understand what you are talking about?"
Shopkeeper Wen smiled coldly, "Of course you don't understand, the Qingkou Mine is still going smoothly, and the guards from the Dudu Mansion are personally guarding it. How do you know that it's not easy for us small traders?"
Seeing that Wei Yucen was indeed stunned for a moment, Mrs. Shen asked: "It seems that you are not only here to send plaques today, shopkeeper Wen, you may as well speak up if you have something to say."
Shopkeeper Wen's hostility suddenly dissipated at this moment, and he looked around with a guilty conscience. Seeing that everyone was avoiding their eyes, he knew that the previous premeditated and alliances were completely insignificant, so he just gritted his teeth and insisted, "Okay , Mrs. Shen, you are a happy person, and I don’t hide it. In fact, we came today to send a plaque to the family and sincerely congratulate him. A way out."
Wen Qingyun stood half a step behind Mrs. Shen, seeing that she was involved, she had no choice but to step forward and said, "Shopkeeper Wen, what do you say?"
This has to start with the changes in Haizhou City these days.To be precise, it should have started when Zhong Han and Yu Jiakang took over Haizhou City.With one piece of paper and one weapon, one piece of paper and one piece of paper, they changed the appearance of the ancient Haizhou City.First, the old school was abolished, and a new school was built in another place, named Haizhou Public School. Some new teachers were hired from outside, and students were recruited aggressively. Anyone who passed the exam, rich or poor, could go in and study with excellent grades. Or, the Dudu Mansion can also send money to send them outside to continue their studies, or even travel across the oceans.When the news spread, the common people applauded loudly, poor children came to apply for the exam one after another, and children from rich families were unwilling to be left behind, even the most conservative old scholars had to admire.Then the wharf was rebuilt, the flood embankment was strengthened, and a sum of money was allocated to the people on the river bank to move to higher places or to strengthen their houses, which completely stopped their suffering from the rainy season for years.The third is to retry unjust prisons, to retry and convict the prisoners who were originally detained in the government prison, and to release some of them on the spot after being tortured.It can be said that everything is a benevolent government. In a short period of time, Zhong Han won the hearts of the people and stood firm.But for shopkeeper Wen, things are different, and it is a completely different story about rehabilitating unjust imprisonment.
"Mrs. Shen, young mistress, who are the people locked up in this prison? Local hooligans! Master who doesn't pay for food, we finally arrested them, and they let them go without saying a word, and then who is the unlucky one?" Or us! They are basically a group, soldiers and thieves come to my shop together, officials and lords don’t pay for meals, it has happened in all dynasties, I don’t say anything, but they don’t give money and don’t say anything , and beat people with smashing things, and pulled out the little girl behind to moleste, I have never seen such a thing in my life. If this continues, I would rather close the shop and take the whole family to the countryside Go down, plant two acres of Susukida, and eat some simple food, it's better than being wronged like this!"
Mrs. Shen lowered her head halfway, and turned the prayer beads in her hand again.
Wen Qingyun looked at the people in the room, "Shopkeeper Wen, if something like this happened, you should report it to the authorities..."
"Two official words, turning right and wrong into black and white!" At this time, shopkeeper Wen didn't care about the polite manners, stood up, and pointed at the others one by one, "It's not my family, they are all full of grievances!"
This kind of thing has the first one, and there will never be a second one——
"The last time I was at my place, I snatched a few pieces of cloth and beat my buddy, and I still can't get up in bed."
"I messed up all my medicines, so Xuan didn't take the guest's medicines by mistake, otherwise if something goes wrong, can they bear it?"
"If I drink too much, I will burn my car, drive the driver away, run around in the street, and hit people..."
The Buddhist beads in Mrs. Shen's hand twisted faster and faster, Wei Yucen was dumbfounded, he was the only one who was kept in the dark among the group of people who came.It seems to have become an accomplice, jumping into the Yellow River can't clean it up.
Shopkeeper Wen stood up again, this time standing up more confidently, "Madam, young mistress, Mrs. Shen has done good things for our Haizhou, thank you. But now that someone is ruining our Haizhou, does the Shen family have to take care of it?" Tube?"
Wen Qingyun understands everything, it is this kind of scheming hidden behind the Jishan family.Out of the corner of his eye, he looked at Mrs. Shen, who was opening her eyes, and the eyes hidden behind her calm expression shot out sharply.
"That's enough!" Mrs. Shen's voice was not loud, everyone heard it, and they all fell silent, "This governor was not chosen by our Shen family, and this revolution was not initiated by our Shen family. You have come all the way to complain about your injustice. , why not go to the temple to pray to the gods and worship the Buddha, see if the Bodhisattva can help, or go to the countryside to buy two acres of land, so as not to lose the land in the future, and you will really have no way to live!" After speaking, he stood up and looked Scanning around, I forced all the dissatisfaction and resentment back, and then half turned around and said, "Dongmei, help me back, I'm tired."
Mrs. Shen left, but the living room remained silent, and they didn't even meet each other's eyes.They have all met Mrs. Shen, either at their own birthday banquet or at another family's wedding banquet. Some family members and Mrs. Shen are still close friends and have a lot of pasts.In my impression, Mrs. Shen is noble, skilled, dignified and kind, but what I see now is a completely different look, another person.It's almost like the unruly mother-in-law at home.
Shen Xiaoru coughed lightly, "Bosses, I think everyone should go back first. It's not that we won't help, my mother has already made it very clear that we can't help."
Shopkeeper Wen's unwillingness to give up said, "Master Shen, you and the governor are brother-in-law, please say something..."
Shen Xiaoru's face turned livid, "Listen clearly, our Shen family has nothing to do with that bandit. You have found the wrong person!"
Shopkeeper Wen, who had been looking bitter all the time, also turned his face, "Master, don't think that we can only rely on you. We came here to discuss with you because he has relatives in the house. Otherwise, we will go directly to the provincial governor and let him Come and judge! Even he said that we are enlightened gentlemen, and we should be respected and protected!"
Shen Xiaoru's words were resounding: "Whoever you want to go to, I'll say it again, our Shen family doesn't care!"
Wen Qingyun lowered her head and could feel everyone's eyes bypassing Shen Xiaoru and focusing on herself.It was her they had come for.Mrs. Shen is so decisive because of her.The Shen family didn't want to have anything to do with Zhong Han, she decided to betroth Qingzhu to Zhong Han on her own, breaking the Shen family's taboo, for herself, and for Zhong Han and his family, she promised Mrs Shen and Xiaoru that she would marry Zhong Han keep distance.When she made this decision, she had a sacrificial mentality, thinking that at least it would make others happy.Unfortunately, this was the decision she regretted the most in her life, and she still regretted it deeply until a long, long time later.

Fortunately, there is still Qing Zhu, Wen Qingyun speaks clearly, asking her to tell Zhong Han verbatim.Remember that he is a superintendent with a lot of fanfare and unknown origin. If he is watched by interested people, problems may arise at any time.Qing Zhu didn't understand, what could be wrong, the worst was not to do it, the worst was to go back to the mountains.She yearns for a free life in the mountains, and after hearing too much from Yuzhu, she has feelings for the vegetation, trees, and stone caves that she has never seen before.Wen Qingyun smiled wryly, at this stage, you can't retreat if you want to, and you may die if you retreat.There are so many enemies waiting anxiously on the way of retreat. If he is forced from the position of governor, there is only one dead end waiting for him.Qing Zhu was frightened at this time, and when she returned home, regardless of Zhong Han's expression, she pulled her into the room and closed the door tightly. She watched Zhong Han frown all the time, he had heard about the brothers' nonsense, but she didn't expect it to be like this serious.It has reached the point where people's sentiments are boiling.It's no wonder that for a man born in a reckless background, it's a joy to break into the world map, a joy to drink and eat meat in a big bowl.So if you are willing to follow the rules and be obedient citizens, wouldn’t that be enough?However, he also admitted that Wen Qingyun's words made sense, and he didn't dare to delay, so he asked Yu Jiakang to discuss countermeasures.Yu Jiakang lived in the governor's mansion, and he did daily trivial chores as he came and went. Seeing Zhong Han came home, he ran back again, and refused to look up from the pile of documents.Zhong Han couldn't help but said, take a closer look, is there anyone who bothers me and asks me to go out?
Yu Jiakang was laughed at by his nondescript new words, leaned back and said, "Mr. Zhong Dudu, you are counted as downfall, not resignation. Tell me, what's the matter, who made you angry?"
Although Zhong Han tried his best to downplay his brother's misdeeds, Yu Jiakang saw the crux of the problem at once, with an expression of "I said it earlier" on his face.He did remind Zhong Han early on that only by restraining his subordinates can he win the hearts of the people.But Zhong Han has always refused because of his brotherhood. Now it seems that he has to make up his mind.But they all understand in their hearts what it means to change the country and change the nature, and it is difficult for these green forest heroes to abide by the rules and understand the truth.The only way is to disarm and release them back to the forest, but at that time, Haizhou was an empty city, and the forces that were watching outside might invade at any time.Yu Jiakang had thought of transferring a battalion from the provincial governor before, but Zhong Han refused because he was worried about conflicts between the two sides.
"What's your plan?" Yu Jiakang asked, thought for a while and said, "It's better to reward and punish heavily, and kill one to warn others!"
Zhong Han could only nod his head in agreement.The two will then determine the details of rewards and punishments one by one.Zhong Han became more and more frustrated, clenched his hands into fists, and knocked on the table from time to time.Yu Jiakang took a look, "Do you think it's so easy to come to a peaceful world?" At dawn, he finally figured out a rough idea.Seeing Zhong Han's haggard face, Yu Jiakang advised him to go home early and rest.Zhong Han disagreed, it was better to finish it in one go, so as not to be caught off guard.Unexpectedly, a word would prove to be a lesson, someone really had an accident the next day, and it was none other than Zhong Han's best brother, Feng Laojiu.
The incident happened in Zuimengxuan. In Huaguoshan before, the brothers joked that Feng Laojiu had no chance of being a woman in his life. Who made him have a bitter face, and there was such a big mole on his chin. See He looks fierce and blunt, who wants to make out with him?Most of the people who said it were drunk, and the people who listened were also half-drunk. In short, these half-truths and half-false words became Feng Laojiu's heart disease.It can't be seen on the surface, but it shows flaws at the critical point.In the first year, Zhong Han wanted to put Xiu Gu and him together, but although Xiu Gu was shy, she didn't close the door.On the other hand, Feng Laojiu swears to God that she will never marry for the rest of her life, let alone be disrespectful to her brothers and daughters-in-law—although Xiugu never married, she had a marriage contract at the beginning.Zhong Han was in a dilemma, and Xiugu almost ran away from the cottage.Only now did everyone know that Feng Laojiu had already broken women's minds, so they will not mention it in the future.Such a person, you say that he can drink and fight, or that he rapes women, who would believe it?It happened that Jiu Lianhuan came out to file a complaint, pushed open the gate of the Governor's Mansion, stood in the yard and shouted what Feng Laojiu had done to her.When women are aggressive, men are no match.Zhong Han and Yu Jiakang hid in the room and gave way to each other, and finally Zhong Han showed up, who made him have a relationship with Jiulianhuan!
When Jiu Lianhuan saw Zhong Han, his face turned red, and then he sternly yelled that he wanted to arrest him and ask for an explanation.Zhong Han laughed angrily, where is Zuimengxuan you, who is Jiu Lianhuan, Feng Laojiu is at worst eating a king's meal, why do you talk about adultery?This series of taunts and ridicules annoyed Jiu Lianhuan, she sat on the ground and wailed, half of the people in Haizhou City watched around, the Dudu Mansion became a stage, Zhong Han stood with a black face and a red face, and was pointed out by others, and finally became angry from embarrassment, Call out Feng Laojiu.Say, what's going on?Feng Laojiu had seen Jiu Lianhuan a long time ago, and stood under the sun with a pale face. Zhong Han felt a chill in his heart, knowing that something had happened.
It's not been a day or two since Jiu Lianhuan among Feng Lao's nine prime ministers. When he saw her from a distance, he missed her in his heart.But at that time, Jiu Lianhuan was interested in Zhong Han, he was still a worthless young man, and he dared not even dream about it.This time when he entered the city, he ran to meet her, and the two drank to reminisce about the old days, and then he did it. She did resist, but she was weak...
"Feng Laojiu, you, I blush for you because of a bitch!" Zhong Han was about to vomit blood angrily, when he saw Yu Jiakang coming out of the room, he changed the subject, "Can't you just give her some money?"
It was the second time that Jiu Lianhuan was called a bitch in public, and it was Zhong Han who she had always had in mind, so the anger can be imagined.She wiped away her tears and stood up, telling them that she would not let it go, she had been in the arena anyway, and now the head of the Green Gang, Hou Gang, is her god-brother!They have already gone to the province to sue for injustice. If the handling is unfair, she doesn't mind going to Guangzhou or Beijing to sue!
No matter how much Zhong Han pleaded for Feng Laojiu, Yu Jiakang just refused to agree.This matter is too bad, if it is easily let go, there is no way to explain it to the people.What's more, when it is still on the cusp of the storm here, if it spreads out and becomes a pretext, even Zhong Han will be in danger.According to his opinion, Feng Laojiu must be punished, severely punished!
Zhong Han gritted his teeth and said, "What if I disagree?"
"My comrade!" Yu Jiakang put on a serious face that he had never seen before, "You have to remember that you are not the king of the bandit mountain now, you are a revolutionary, and you want to save the common people in the world!"
Zhong Han said: "I can't even save my brother, how can I save others?"
Yu Jiakang seemed to be specifically arguing with him, "You are not just this brother, you have to convince everyone! Whether he will suffer some flesh and blood alone, or everyone will die together, you should think clearly!"
Zhong Han understood that he had no choice. Early the next morning, on the stage set up temporarily in the school yard outside Nancheng, the people of Haizhou City watched a good show of stick blame. half oops.The curtain of a carriage at the back of the crowd opened a gap, revealing half of Jiu Lianhuan's face. After looking at it for a while, he turned to Hall Master Hou who was also in the carriage and said, are you satisfied?From now on, I will have nothing to do with your Green Gang!Hall Master Hou smiled, and pulled Jiu Lianhuan into his arms, "Beauty, how can I be willing?"
This matter did not end because Feng Laojiu was punished. The provincial governor sent a letter to reprimand Zhong Han, telling Zhong Han that if necessary, he could dismiss some of his subordinates. He sent a new army and arrived in Haizhou in a few days.And many people around Zhong Han had already had enough of the endless rules and regulations, and seeing Feng Laojiu's fate, they all left without saying goodbye.
On the other hand, Feng Laojiu, healed his wounds in silence, and he was still beside Zhong Han when he recovered from his injuries, without saying a word of complaint.After recovering from the injury, he took the initiative to find a few old buddies who came out together from Huaguo Mountain, a total of 15 people, and exchanged posts with Zhong Han to become sworn brothers again. The blessings and difficulties are shared, which comforted Zhong Han a lot.
Wen Yuzhu was not included in the list of sworn brothers, but because of his special relationship with Zhong Han and a little proficiency in writing, he was sent to a public school as an inspector.Wen Qingyun was delighted to see that her younger brother was finally on the right path, and she donated a large sum of money to a public school that was short of funds. After the first exam, three poor students won the first, second and third places, and it was Wen Qingyun who came from Mao Yong He took a sum of money and sent the three of them to Dongyang to study. This is the first batch of overseas students in Haizhou City after Shen Xiaoduan. They will return to China after studying and have made achievements in their respective majors, but this is all for later.

Two months later, Wen Qingyun sent someone to bring Qingzhu to Shen's house. When Qingzhu came back, Qingzhu was smiling, and Zhong Han was in a daze, "What's the matter? What treasure did you get?"
"My sister is pregnant." Qing Zhu's eyes were shining, with unquestionable excitement, and he was sincerely happy, "It's not easy, Shen'er died, and my sister lost half her life. I've never seen her really happy before, it's my sister's wish to give birth to a boy and a half girl for the Shen family, and now it's finally come true."
Zhong Han listened, his heart sank for a moment, his brows furrowed and then widened. It turned out that he was so stupid, he had to put the facts before his eyes to understand what daydreaming is.Now, it's time to wake up from the dream.Zhong Han was drunk that night, and dragged Yu Jiakang to learn to sing revolutionary songs. The entire Dudu Mansion rang out all night with out of tune singing. When the sky was about to dawn, Zhong Han lay down beside Qing Zhu, unconscious He touched her cheek with wet tears.
"I'm sorry." He said vaguely, raising his hand and being held by another hand.
"My sister is the eldest mistress of the Shen family, and I will always be. I will be your daughter-in-law, and I will always be." Qingzhu's gentle voice fell on Zhong Han, crushing this tough man, and threw him into her arms.
Wen Yuzhu is the happiest person in the whole Haizhou City. The two sisters had a wedding almost at the same time. He is going to be an uncle, and his work as a school inspector is going well. In the eyes of the students in the public school, he is a young man There is a majesty.They always like to come to his room when they have nothing to do, and pester him to tell stories about being forced to go to Liangshan after escaping from death.When he spoke, his heart was full of pride and pride that he had never had before.All this happened too fast, he was lifted up to the sky, and his steps were high, but he didn't think it was vain.
Wen Qingyun raised her baby at home, this time she was 12 extra careful, and changed her meal to a small stove, and asked Xuelian to watch it herself.Shen Xiaoru came to see her twice a day, saw her belly swell day by day, and said with a smile, I want a daughter, it's a good word.Dongmei followed behind Shen Xiaoru, accusing him of being careless, her sister was looking forward to her son.There must be a positive exit in the long room.
Wen Qingyun pretended not to hear the words, she was still wary of Dongmei, Shen Shen's death, Yang Jing'an took half, Dongmei took half, she knew it very well, but there was no evidence, so she couldn't say it out.Furthermore, Dongmei is currently a hero, with Shen Hao's face, she can't move.Everything is under pressure, she thinks there will be a day when there will be a chance for revenge.So she also pretended to smile, "I didn't think about it that much, as long as I'm safe and sound."
Unintentional words were heard in the ears of those who cared, like needle pricks, and the hairs on Hun's body stood on end.Back in the South Courtyard, Dongmei pulled Shen Hao over, grabbed the tiny arm that was not yet grown up and said, You must remember that Mother has done so much, all for you.If you are not filial to your mother in the future, you will be struck by lightning.Shen Hao couldn't understand, and even clamored to quit his husband and go to public school.Dongmei slapped her son on the buttocks. The school inspectors are murder fugitives. Are you looking for death?Dongmei had no other hope. Yang Jing'an never looked back once she left. She was searched in the countryside, but they couldn't find her. It was as if the figure had disappeared out of thin air.Some people say that he was killed by the rebels, some say that he went to the mountains to become a Taoist priest, and some say that he took a large sum of money and went to the sea to go to Nanyang.Dongmei believed it, knowing that this person would never come back.Maybe she and Madam Shen were the only ones in the entire Shen family who still cared about Yang Jing'an. Once she revealed the matter to Ai Ai expectantly, and saw Madam Shen shed tears.In the evening, Dongmei burned a lot of ingots and paper money in the corner of the garden, which was her last contribution to this uncle.
She doesn't have the guts to do anything now, seeing Wen Qingyun's belly getting bigger day by day, what will Shen Hao do in the future?Wen Qingyun hasn't found trouble with their mother and son over the years, maybe she's just waiting to settle the score after the fall, how should she deal with it at that time?When you worry too much, it becomes a gritted hatred, even Shen Xiaoru hates it, if you don't marry him, how can you live in such fear?Just as he was thinking about it, he suddenly heard a loud noise outside, jumped off the bed in a panic, stepped on the cool ground with both feet, and then woke up a bit, picked up Shen Hao, and ran away from the door.
Wen Qingyun was falling asleep, a woman had a body, she would doze off a lot, and sleep deeply, the shouting and gunfire outside didn't wake her up, fortunately Xuelian was still there, she didn't care about the distinction between the maidservant and the master, so she came up and used her strength Shake, shake her out of her sweet dreams.
"Miss, it's not good, we're fighting again!"
Wen Qingyun was a little sober, but couldn't believe it, "What did you say? What kind of battle are you fighting?"
"I don't know either. Listen to the gunshots outside. It's been going on for a while. They say that half of Haizhou City is on fire." Xue Lian didn't speak clearly, but it was enough to show the seriousness of the situation.
Wen Qingyun put on her clothes as fast as she could, and walked out of the west courtyard with Xuelian.At this time, the family members in the yard were in a mess like headless chickens.Wen Qingyun took Xuelian to the gate, and just halfway there, she saw Mi Fu, who was dressed in black and gray, rushing towards her.
"Eldest young mistress, it's amazing, Maoyong was robbed by the rebels!"
Wen Qingyun grabbed Mifford's arm, "Where is he? Is the guy injured? What did they take away?"
"It's all taken away, and it's called the new army. I don't think it's even as good as the bandits." Mifu wiped the sweat off his face, and then said: "Young Mistress, who do you think led the army? Gu Baoshan! He It became a new revolutionary army again, and the people at the bottom held steel guns and said that they were ordered by the governor of the Jiangbei New Army to suppress the bandits. Where did this come from? Now they are looking for you all over the world. Hurry up Run away, it will be too late!"
Mi Fu was right, Gu Baoshan was the new battalion sent by the provincial governor to Haizhou, because of the riot in Huainan, he received an order to put down the rebellion halfway, which delayed the time.The Governor's Mansion thought about sending another person to come, but Gu Baoshan tried his best to stop it. He wanted to return to Haizhou even in his dreams, and he was ashamed!
Wen Qingyun panicked, Gu Baoshan rushed back to Haizhou, she was the first one she would not let go, she glanced at Xuelian, at this time there was a rough roar and the sound of footsteps outside the door.
"Miss, go through the corner gate of the garden." Xue Lian suddenly became alert, and she and Mi Fu ran towards the garden with Wen Qingyun on their backs.
Wen Qingyun struggled a bit, "No, I'm leaving, what about Yu Zhu and Qing Zhu? They will be in danger."
Mifford said these words, and put all his strength into his hands, "Young Mistress, you go first, I will go to find Master Yuzhu and Miss Qingzhu right away, don't worry, even if I risk my life, I will take the letter delivered to you."
Xue Lian was about to cry, "Miss, let's go, if you delay, it will be too late."
In the chaos, they could already hear someone shouting, "Where's your youngest mistress? Hand her over!"
"There's someone over there!"
"Go and see!"
Wen Qingyun didn't dare to linger, so she quickened her pace.When they came to the garden, Xuelian stopped suddenly, "Miss, hurry up, I will try to lure them away."
Wen Qingyun knew that there was no way out, she was clumsy, and if she walked together, no one would be able to escape, so she grabbed Xuelian's hand and said, "Xuelian, be careful." After finishing speaking, she followed Mifu three steps a step I turned around and left.She never thought that this would be the farewell between her and Xue Lian in this life.
Seeing that Wen Qingyun had already left the garden, Xuelian purposely stepped heavily, and led the pursuers to the west courtyard. The soldiers caught up, saw that it was a maid, and escorted her to the living room.Mrs. Shen and Xiaoru Dongmei were both standing in the living room. Gu Baoshan was dressed as a general of the new army, holding a new-style saber in his hand, and his riding boots were also polished, looking majestic.
He took a step forward, pulled out half of the knife, and placed it on Xuelian's chest, "Where's Wen Qingyun?"
"I don't know." Xue Lian was frightened and wanted to retreat, but was pushed to the front by the soldiers behind.
Shen Xiaoru persuaded with a trembling voice, "When is this, where is the eldest young lady, why don't you say something?"
Xue Lian felt a little chilled, and asked, "Eldest young master, you don't even know where eldest young mistress is, how could a girl like me know."
Dongmei said sharply, "Are you going to kill us? Tell me quickly, are you hiding her?"
The soldiers turned the Shen family upside down, but Wen Qingyun was still nowhere to be seen. Gu Baoshan sneered and said, "Okay, good girl, you are loyal. Let me see how long you can be loyal! Somebody, tie them all up for me." stand up!"
Shen Xiaoru was the first to beg for mercy, "Master Gu, please let us go."
Mrs. Shen has more integrity than her son, "Gu Baoshan, don't bully others too much, we are officials after all, so you don't have to be afraid..."
Gu Baoshan came over and slapped Mrs. Shen across the face, "Damn old woman, you still flaunt my prestige with me. I beat you as an official!"
Mrs. Shen has never touched a finger since she was a child, and now she is old, when she was humiliated in this way in front of her grandson, she held her breath in her heart and passed out.
After all, Gu Baoshan still had some taboos, seeing this situation, he escorted Xuelian away.The Shen family looked at each other in blank dismay, wondering if this would count as escape.Only then did I remember to find a doctor and save my wife.At this time, the city has become a mess, full of scars and ruins.Where can I find a doctor?Seeing that he couldn't do business, the servants simply fled for their lives.

The rebellious soldiers burned, killed and looted in the city, so naturally they would not let Zuimengxuan's gold-selling cave go.Gu Fgan kicked the door that was closed at the beginning, and someone rushed in behind him, and dragged out the woman who was hiding in the cabinet under the bed. The eardrums of everyone present.
"You bastards, I don't think who dares to move? You don't ask who the aunt is. There is no aunt, and Zhong Han and his gang are scattered. Now you can enter Haizhou City? The surname is Hou, he hid Where have you been? Tell him to come out and see me!" Jiu Lianhuan cursed amazingly, but his body was wrapped by two soldiers and he couldn't help himself.
Gu Fgan frowned slightly, walked in front of Jiu Lianhuan, tilted his head, dodged a mouthful of saliva, and said in a dissatisfied tone, "It's the Republic of China now, put away your tricks of the green gang female bachelors, and call again, I will make you look good! "
Jiu Lianhuan raised her head, "You were still in the mother's womb when my aunt was walking in the rivers and lakes. How dare you talk to me like that? You fucking..."
Gu Fgan waved his hand and called a soldier, "Take him away!"
"You dare to arrest me? You forgot that it was my aunt who set up the game and killed Master Jiu, so that you can get what you want? The surname is Hou, you get out of here, open your dog eyes and see that this is the accomplice you are looking for! You still think that they will keep their word and let you get rich, just dream!" Jiu Lianhuan scolded happily, while Gu Fgan's face changed drastically, some soldiers were still in the dark, and some people had already guessed some clues.Gu Fgan didn't have time to think about it, he took out the saber from Ma Bian and sent it into Jiu Lianhuan's heart, his voice stopped suddenly.
This is Gu Baoshan's secret. He colluded with the leader of the Green Gang Hou to wipe out Zhong Han's strength. Therefore, Jiulianhuan went to frame Feng Laojiu, and the benefit he got was to regain the opium management rights banned by Zhong Han and Yu Jiakang.Jiu Lianhuan didn't want to be involved in this matter at first, but he was helpless in the arena. He didn't expect that he would end up in such a bleak way after making a mistake.
At this time, Wen Qingyun was already hiding on a cargo ship. She and Mi Fu agreed to wait here. Mi Fu went back to pick up Yu Zhu and Qing Zhu, and they fled Haizhou City together.Unexpectedly, as soon as Miff left, the boatman drove the boat away.Wen Qingyun turned pale with fright and clamored to go ashore.The boatman had no choice but to say, "Eldest young mistress, I'm doing it for your own good. If you don't leave, you won't be able to leave until they find it. In this world, it depends on your own fate. If the person you are waiting for has a big fate, it will naturally turn into danger." Ji, if you can't escape this calamity, why should you be involved?"
Wen Qingyun felt helpless, so she had no choice but to stay at the bottom of the bilge, listening to the gurgling sound of the Qiangwei River, her heart twisted into a ball.
Sure enough, Miff didn't come back. When he found the public school, the so-called new bandit suppression army had already surrounded the public school. He cast himself in the trap. A newcomer pulled the trigger without blinking, and the bullet penetrated Miff. He didn't feel any pain, but a chill spread from the soles of his feet to the top of his head, and he didn't know anything after that.
Wen Yuzhu climbed over the wall and went to the Dudu Mansion to find Zhong Han.At this time, Yu Jiakang and Zhong Han were arguing over whether to disperse and break through or to fight without a fight.Yu Jiakang was angry with the scholar, thinking that since he was both a member of the Revolutionary Party, there was no unreasonable misunderstanding, no matter how fierce and rude Gu Baoshan was, he was also a member of the Revolutionary Army, so it made sense.Zhong Han slapped the table, what kind of idiot logic is this?He knew Gu Baoshan too well, and he came back this time to seek revenge. He brought them together, and then said that they were bandits and hard to train.To reason with such a person, don't you just give your head away?The two quarreled terribly, but fortunately the brothers still listened to the elder brother's orders, so Yu Jiakang could only hold back his words.Zhong Han divided the brothers in his hands into several groups. The old people in Zhongjiazhai counted as one group, Wen Yuzhu and Yu Jiakang weaved together, and he led most of the troops to break through separately and gather at Zhongjiazhai in Huaguoshan.
Zhong Han's journey was relatively smooth. He walked through the south gate of Haizhou City. There were few enemy troops there and no commander was there.Yu Jiakang and Wen Yuzhu were not so lucky. They rushed to the street and met the team led by Gu Baoshan. They could have rushed out among the crowd, but Yu Jiakang finally couldn't hold back and wanted to kill an enemy to vent his anger, revealing his whereabouts , together with Wen Yuzhu was captured alive.
Wen Qingyun hid in Zizhu Nunnery, and Master Ci Ning knew about her relationship with Zhong Han, so he specially vacated a nunnery for her to live in temporarily. Qingzhu had already been sent to the nunnery by Zhong Han because she wanted to have a baby, knowing that her sister was coming. Come over to see, the two sisters didn't expect to meet under such circumstances, and each sighed in their hearts for a while.Ci Ning had received Zhong Han's kindness, and treated the two distinguished guests with hospitality. While sending people to prepare porridge and vegetarian dishes, at the same time, he sent his disciples down the mountain to inquire about news.Not long after, the little apprentice came back with a sad face. The houses in Haizhou City were collapsed, and everyone rushed to avoid it. I heard that many bandit leaders were caught, including the former death row prisoner Wen Yuzhu!
Wen Qingyun almost fainted when she heard that, what would happen if Yuzhu fell into their hands?No, she wants to go back, even if she exchanges herself for Yu Zhu, she must save her innocent brother!Ci Ning couldn't stop him, so he had to send people to make eighteen rounds, and invited Zhong Han over.
Zhong Han is also planning to kill and return to Haizhou to avenge his brother who died unjustly. Through his eyeliner, he has already learned that Wen Yuzhu and Yu Jiakang have fallen into the enemy's hands. Unfortunately, he is not enough manpower now. He is not Gu Baoshan's opponent, and there is no hope for a sneak attack , also at the moment of helplessness.Seeing that Wen Qingyun was resolute, she also said that she would go together.
Qing Zhu is now more sober than them, "Are you crazy? Go back to die? Sister, you have to think about the child in your stomach if you don't think about yourself. And you," she turned to Zhong Han, "Do you want your child to be born? Come down and not see dad?"
Zhong Han took a few steps on the spot and sighed heavily, "Gu Baoshan, I will keep this account for you!"
Wen Qingyun was woken up by her younger sister, and she couldn't save her younger brother by rushing back, and her own life was in danger.She thought for a while and said, "If you want to save people, the only way is to move troops!"
Zhong Han asked, "They have already turned their faces and refused to recognize anyone, and moved troops, who will save them?"
"I'm going to Beijing." Wen Qingyun had made up her mind in a blink of an eye, her eyes were burning, "I'll go to my master, he should have a way to save the Shen family!"
Zhong Han refused to agree to Wen Qingyun's trip to Beijing in person, and the reason was very good, "The road is dangerous, and you are pregnant, what if something happens?"
"Besides me, is there a more suitable candidate? For Yuzhu, I have to fight no matter what. I can't let him go to the execution ground again."
Zhong Han originally wanted to personally escort Wen Qingyun on the road, but looking back at Qing Zhu who was pregnant with Liujia, some words were hard to say.In the end, Feng Laojiu had to work hard.
"No matter what, you have to keep her safe." Zhong Han explained.
Wen Qingyun looked at Zhong Han, and solemnly asked, "I leave all my brothers and sisters to you, and you must live until I come back!"

In terms of strength and prestige in the business community, Shen Yunpei is not as good as Zhang Jian.
The Dasheng Spinning Mill founded by Zhang Jian has now become a gold-lettered signboard. The Kuixing trademark has spread all over the country. "Dasheng Textile Co., Ltd." was officially registered with the Ministry of Commerce and obtained the patent right of "not allowing other companies to set up spinning mills within 20 years". , How much power and strength is this?Zhang Jian has also become a figure that various factions are vying to recruit, and Yuan Shikai is no exception.Speaking of the relationship between the two of them, the Renwu Mutiny occurred in North Korea in the eighth year of Guangxu. Zhang Jian followed Wu Changqing’s army to Seoul to suppress the rebellion. At this time, Yuan Shikai was also in Qingziying. Asking him to study with Zhang Jian is considered a teacher-student friendship.Although there was some unhappiness between them later, no one would take it to heart as things have changed.Especially in recent years, Zhang Jian of the constitutional school and Yuan Shikai have had frequent exchanges. Zhang Jian believes that only Yuan Shikai has the ability to clean up the chaos in the world today.He is a staunch supporter and ally of Yuan Shikai both publically and privately.As a pioneer advocating industry to save the country, Zhang Jian understands the importance of railway transportation better than anyone else. He has already built Tiansheng Port along the river west of Tangzha in Nantong. If the Longhai Railway Terminal can be built here to connect the inner road and waterway, For him and the whole of Nantong, it is a once-in-a-lifetime good thing.So when the railway terminal was set at Haizhou, which Shen Yunpei insisted on, what Zhang Jian felt was a kind of fooling and betrayal.
Shen Yunpei is still complacent about being able to persuade Yuan Shikai to win benefits for Haizhou.As everyone knows, this is a great gift carefully planned by Yuan Shikai, the purpose is to let Shen Yunpei be grateful to become his party, and lay the foundation of connections for the future.We must know that Shen Yunpei is a powerful figure in the court. Although his assets are not as good as Zhang Jian, he has a calm and moderate personality. He never makes enemies in the court. It is obvious to all.The most important thing is that Shen Yunpei is a person with a strong family and local concept, and such a person is easier to control.Relatively speaking, Zhang Jian is more of a scholarly spirit, and for the so-called truth and justice, he can risk all his wealth and life, and he will not hesitate to burn everything.Yuan Shikai learned this point many years ago, and he will not repeat the same mistakes.
When the news spread back to Haizhou, the city was shaken. Some of the people didn’t know the benefits of the railway, but Wei Yucen and others knew about it, and they took the trouble to explain it to everyone. People from the business circles in Zhoucheng partnered to make a gold plaque-the bottom of the huanghuali was inlaid with gold characters, and the four big characters "Jianshan Family" were written on it, and it was sent to Shen's house with gongs and drums.Wei Yucen understands that his position in the hearts of Haizhou people has not been embarrassing all these years. When he cooperated with Du Wenjing at the beginning, many people were very clear-eyed, but it is difficult to say because of his family background.Later, he followed Shen Yunpei, whether it was to revitalize the family business or to make money, but the Chinese people who value integrity looked down on him.Now that they are willing to do this, it seems that they even forgive him.So I worked extra hard, asked the craftsmen to rush to work, and found the most famous dragon dance team in Shili Baxiang, and must express this enthusiasm and gratitude to the fullest.
Mrs. Shen has been in good and bad health for a while, so she can't easily come out to see guests.This time, I specially put on a new Susi coat and jacket, and asked Dongmei to greet her in the living room in person.Shen Xiaoru and Wen Qingyun were considered juniors, they took the teapot from the servants and filled the cups for the guests.
Wei Yucen stroked his beard and smiled, "Ma'am, this is a great joy. Our Haizhou has an ancient history. I think that when Confucius climbed mountains and watched the sea here, we had Kongwang Mountain. Now Master Shen has repaired the railway. When we arrive at our door, who will dare to underestimate our place in the future? Speaking of which, this is the blessing that the Shen family has brought to the people of Haizhou City, and we are here to thank the Shen family on behalf of the people."
Mrs. Shen smiled and shook her head, "Boss Wei, please don't say that. My lord always said that it is one's duty to be an official to benefit one party. No thanks."
Shopkeeper Wen of Tianxiang Pavilion said: "What is Ma'am talking about? Thank you, and thank you again! Ma'am, you don't know if you don't go out at home. It's messed up outside, and everyone cares about their own happiness. Who cares about the lives of ordinary people? Shen Ma'am, let me put it bluntly, our Haizhou City has always been guided by your Shen family, but now that we have reached this point, we need your Shen family to speak up!"
Mrs. Shen glanced at Wei Yucen, and Wei Yucen hurriedly said, "Shopkeeper Wen, why can't I understand what you are talking about?"
Shopkeeper Wen smiled coldly, "Of course you don't understand, the Qingkou Mine is still going smoothly, and the guards from the Dudu Mansion are personally guarding it. How do you know that it's not easy for us small traders?"
Seeing that Wei Yucen was indeed stunned for a moment, Mrs. Shen asked: "It seems that you are not only here to send plaques today, shopkeeper Wen, you may as well speak up if you have something to say."
Shopkeeper Wen's hostility suddenly dissipated at this moment, and he looked around with a guilty conscience. Seeing that everyone was avoiding their eyes, he knew that the previous premeditated and alliances were completely insignificant, so he just gritted his teeth and insisted, "Okay , Mrs. Shen, you are a happy person, and I don’t hide it. In fact, we came today to send a plaque to the family and sincerely congratulate him. A way out."
Wen Qingyun stood half a step behind Mrs. Shen, seeing that she was involved, she had no choice but to step forward and said, "Shopkeeper Wen, what do you say?"
This has to start with the changes in Haizhou City these days.To be precise, it should have started when Zhong Han and Yu Jiakang took over Haizhou City.With one piece of paper and one weapon, one piece of paper and one piece of paper, they changed the appearance of the ancient Haizhou City.First, the old school was abolished, and a new school was built in another place, named Haizhou Public School. Some new teachers were hired from outside, and students were recruited aggressively. Anyone who passed the exam, rich or poor, could go in and study with excellent grades. Or, the Dudu Mansion can also send money to send them outside to continue their studies, or even travel across the oceans.When the news spread, the common people applauded loudly, poor children came to apply for the exam one after another, and children from rich families were unwilling to be left behind, even the most conservative old scholars had to admire.Then the wharf was rebuilt, the flood embankment was strengthened, and a sum of money was allocated to the people on the river bank to move to higher places or to strengthen their houses, which completely stopped their suffering from the rainy season for years.The third is to retry unjust prisons, to retry and convict the prisoners who were originally detained in the government prison, and to release some of them on the spot after being tortured.It can be said that everything is a benevolent government. In a short period of time, Zhong Han won the hearts of the people and stood firm.But for shopkeeper Wen, things are different, and it is a completely different story about rehabilitating unjust imprisonment.
"Mrs. Shen, young mistress, who are the people locked up in this prison? Local hooligans! Master who doesn't pay for food, we finally arrested them, and they let them go without saying a word, and then who is the unlucky one?" Or us! They are basically a group, soldiers and thieves come to my shop together, officials and lords don’t pay for meals, it has happened in all dynasties, I don’t say anything, but they don’t give money and don’t say anything , and beat people with smashing things, and pulled out the little girl behind to moleste, I have never seen such a thing in my life. If this continues, I would rather close the shop and take the whole family to the countryside Go down, plant two acres of Susukida, and eat some simple food, it's better than being wronged like this!"
Mrs. Shen lowered her head halfway, and turned the prayer beads in her hand again.
Wen Qingyun looked at the people in the room, "Shopkeeper Wen, if something like this happened, you should report it to the authorities..."
"Two official words, turning right and wrong into black and white!" At this time, shopkeeper Wen didn't care about the polite manners, stood up, and pointed at the others one by one, "It's not my family, they are all full of grievances!"
This kind of thing has the first one, and there will never be a second one——
"The last time I was at my place, I snatched a few pieces of cloth and beat my buddy, and I still can't get up in bed."
"I messed up all my medicines, so Xuan didn't take the guest's medicines by mistake, otherwise if something goes wrong, can they bear it?"
"If I drink too much, I will burn my car, drive the driver away, run around in the street, and hit people..."
The Buddhist beads in Mrs. Shen's hand twisted faster and faster, Wei Yucen was dumbfounded, he was the only one who was kept in the dark among the group of people who came.It seems to have become an accomplice, jumping into the Yellow River can't clean it up.
Shopkeeper Wen stood up again, this time standing up more confidently, "Madam, young mistress, Mrs. Shen has done good things for our Haizhou, thank you. But now that someone is ruining our Haizhou, does the Shen family have to take care of it?" Tube?"
Wen Qingyun understands everything, it is this kind of scheming hidden behind the Jishan family.Out of the corner of his eye, he looked at Mrs. Shen, who was opening her eyes, and the eyes hidden behind her calm expression shot out sharply.
"That's enough!" Mrs. Shen's voice was not loud, everyone heard it, and they all fell silent, "This governor was not chosen by our Shen family, and this revolution was not initiated by our Shen family. You have come all the way to complain about your injustice. , why not go to the temple to pray to the gods and worship the Buddha, see if the Bodhisattva can help, or go to the countryside to buy two acres of land, so as not to lose the land in the future, and you will really have no way to live!" After speaking, he stood up and looked Scanning around, I forced all the dissatisfaction and resentment back, and then half turned around and said, "Dongmei, help me back, I'm tired."
Mrs. Shen left, but the living room remained silent, and they didn't even meet each other's eyes.They have all met Mrs. Shen, either at their own birthday banquet or at another family's wedding banquet. Some family members and Mrs. Shen are still close friends and have a lot of pasts.In my impression, Mrs. Shen is noble, skilled, dignified and kind, but what I see now is a completely different look, another person.It's almost like the unruly mother-in-law at home.
Shen Xiaoru coughed lightly, "Bosses, I think everyone should go back first. It's not that we won't help, my mother has already made it very clear that we can't help."
Shopkeeper Wen's unwillingness to give up said, "Master Shen, you and the governor are brother-in-law, please say something..."
Shen Xiaoru's face turned livid, "Listen clearly, our Shen family has nothing to do with that bandit. You have found the wrong person!"
Shopkeeper Wen, who had been looking bitter all the time, also turned his face, "Master, don't think that we can only rely on you. We came here to discuss with you because he has relatives in the house. Otherwise, we will go directly to the provincial governor and let him Come and judge! Even he said that we are enlightened gentlemen, and we should be respected and protected!"
Shen Xiaoru's words were resounding: "Whoever you want to go to, I'll say it again, our Shen family doesn't care!"
Wen Qingyun lowered her head and could feel everyone's eyes bypassing Shen Xiaoru and focusing on herself.It was her they had come for.Mrs. Shen is so decisive because of her.The Shen family didn't want to have anything to do with Zhong Han, she decided to betroth Qingzhu to Zhong Han on her own, breaking the Shen family's taboo, for herself, and for Zhong Han and his family, she promised Mrs Shen and Xiaoru that she would marry Zhong Han keep distance.When she made this decision, she had a sacrificial mentality, thinking that at least it would make others happy.Unfortunately, this was the decision she regretted the most in her life, and she still regretted it deeply until a long, long time later.

Fortunately, there is still Qing Zhu, Wen Qingyun speaks clearly, asking her to tell Zhong Han verbatim.Remember that he is a superintendent with a lot of fanfare and unknown origin. If he is watched by interested people, problems may arise at any time.Qing Zhu didn't understand, what could be wrong, the worst was not to do it, the worst was to go back to the mountains.She yearns for a free life in the mountains, and after hearing too much from Yuzhu, she has feelings for the vegetation, trees, and stone caves that she has never seen before.Wen Qingyun smiled wryly, at this stage, you can't retreat if you want to, and you may die if you retreat.There are so many enemies waiting anxiously on the way of retreat. If he is forced from the position of governor, there is only one dead end waiting for him.Qing Zhu was frightened at this time, and when she returned home, regardless of Zhong Han's expression, she pulled her into the room and closed the door tightly. She watched Zhong Han frown all the time, he had heard about the brothers' nonsense, but she didn't expect it to be like this serious.It has reached the point where people's sentiments are boiling.It's no wonder that for a man born in a reckless background, it's a joy to break into the world map, a joy to drink and eat meat in a big bowl.So if you are willing to follow the rules and be obedient citizens, wouldn’t that be enough?However, he also admitted that Wen Qingyun's words made sense, and he didn't dare to delay, so he asked Yu Jiakang to discuss countermeasures.Yu Jiakang lived in the governor's mansion, and he did daily trivial chores as he came and went. Seeing Zhong Han came home, he ran back again, and refused to look up from the pile of documents.Zhong Han couldn't help but said, take a closer look, is there anyone who bothers me and asks me to go out?
Yu Jiakang was laughed at by his nondescript new words, leaned back and said, "Mr. Zhong Dudu, you are counted as downfall, not resignation. Tell me, what's the matter, who made you angry?"
Although Zhong Han tried his best to downplay his brother's misdeeds, Yu Jiakang saw the crux of the problem at once, with an expression of "I said it earlier" on his face.He did remind Zhong Han early on that only by restraining his subordinates can he win the hearts of the people.But Zhong Han has always refused because of his brotherhood. Now it seems that he has to make up his mind.But they all understand in their hearts what it means to change the country and change the nature, and it is difficult for these green forest heroes to abide by the rules and understand the truth.The only way is to disarm and release them back to the forest, but at that time, Haizhou was an empty city, and the forces that were watching outside might invade at any time.Yu Jiakang had thought of transferring a battalion from the provincial governor before, but Zhong Han refused because he was worried about conflicts between the two sides.
"What's your plan?" Yu Jiakang asked, thought for a while and said, "It's better to reward and punish heavily, and kill one to warn others!"
Zhong Han could only nod his head in agreement.The two will then determine the details of rewards and punishments one by one.Zhong Han became more and more frustrated, clenched his hands into fists, and knocked on the table from time to time.Yu Jiakang took a look, "Do you think it's so easy to come to a peaceful world?" At dawn, he finally figured out a rough idea.Seeing Zhong Han's haggard face, Yu Jiakang advised him to go home early and rest.Zhong Han disagreed, it was better to finish it in one go, so as not to be caught off guard.Unexpectedly, a word would prove to be a lesson, someone really had an accident the next day, and it was none other than Zhong Han's best brother, Feng Laojiu.
The incident happened in Zuimengxuan. In Huaguoshan before, the brothers joked that Feng Laojiu had no chance of being a woman in his life. Who made him have a bitter face, and there was such a big mole on his chin. See He looks fierce and blunt, who wants to make out with him?Most of the people who said it were drunk, and the people who listened were also half-drunk. In short, these half-truths and half-false words became Feng Laojiu's heart disease.It can't be seen on the surface, but it shows flaws at the critical point.In the first year, Zhong Han wanted to put Xiu Gu and him together, but although Xiu Gu was shy, she didn't close the door.On the other hand, Feng Laojiu swears to God that she will never marry for the rest of her life, let alone be disrespectful to her brothers and daughters-in-law—although Xiugu never married, she had a marriage contract at the beginning.Zhong Han was in a dilemma, and Xiugu almost ran away from the cottage.Only now did everyone know that Feng Laojiu had already broken women's minds, so they will not mention it in the future.Such a person, you say that he can drink and fight, or that he rapes women, who would believe it?It happened that Jiu Lianhuan came out to file a complaint, pushed open the gate of the Governor's Mansion, stood in the yard and shouted what Feng Laojiu had done to her.When women are aggressive, men are no match.Zhong Han and Yu Jiakang hid in the room and gave way to each other, and finally Zhong Han showed up, who made him have a relationship with Jiulianhuan!
When Jiu Lianhuan saw Zhong Han, his face turned red, and then he sternly yelled that he wanted to arrest him and ask for an explanation.Zhong Han laughed angrily, where is Zuimengxuan you, who is Jiu Lianhuan, Feng Laojiu is at worst eating a king's meal, why do you talk about adultery?This series of taunts and ridicules annoyed Jiu Lianhuan, she sat on the ground and wailed, half of the people in Haizhou City watched around, the Dudu Mansion became a stage, Zhong Han stood with a black face and a red face, and was pointed out by others, and finally became angry from embarrassment, Call out Feng Laojiu.Say, what's going on?Feng Laojiu had seen Jiu Lianhuan a long time ago, and stood under the sun with a pale face. Zhong Han felt a chill in his heart, knowing that something had happened.
It's not been a day or two since Jiu Lianhuan among Feng Lao's nine prime ministers. When he saw her from a distance, he missed her in his heart.But at that time, Jiu Lianhuan was interested in Zhong Han, he was still a worthless young man, and he dared not even dream about it.This time when he entered the city, he ran to meet her, and the two drank to reminisce about the old days, and then he did it. She did resist, but she was weak...
"Feng Laojiu, you, I blush for you because of a bitch!" Zhong Han was about to vomit blood angrily, when he saw Yu Jiakang coming out of the room, he changed the subject, "Can't you just give her some money?"
It was the second time that Jiu Lianhuan was called a bitch in public, and it was Zhong Han who she had always had in mind, so the anger can be imagined.She wiped away her tears and stood up, telling them that she would not let it go, she had been in the arena anyway, and now the head of the Green Gang, Hou Gang, is her god-brother!They have already gone to the province to sue for injustice. If the handling is unfair, she doesn't mind going to Guangzhou or Beijing to sue!
No matter how much Zhong Han pleaded for Feng Laojiu, Yu Jiakang just refused to agree.This matter is too bad, if it is easily let go, there is no way to explain it to the people.What's more, when it is still on the cusp of the storm here, if it spreads out and becomes a pretext, even Zhong Han will be in danger.According to his opinion, Feng Laojiu must be punished, severely punished!
Zhong Han gritted his teeth and said, "What if I disagree?"
"My comrade!" Yu Jiakang put on a serious face that he had never seen before, "You have to remember that you are not the king of the bandit mountain now, you are a revolutionary, and you want to save the common people in the world!"
Zhong Han said: "I can't even save my brother, how can I save others?"
Yu Jiakang seemed to be specifically arguing with him, "You are not just this brother, you have to convince everyone! Whether he will suffer some flesh and blood alone, or everyone will die together, you should think clearly!"
Zhong Han understood that he had no choice. Early the next morning, on the stage set up temporarily in the school yard outside Nancheng, the people of Haizhou City watched a good show of stick blame. half oops.The curtain of a carriage at the back of the crowd opened a gap, revealing half of Jiu Lianhuan's face. After looking at it for a while, he turned to Hall Master Hou who was also in the carriage and said, are you satisfied?From now on, I will have nothing to do with your Green Gang!Hall Master Hou smiled, and pulled Jiu Lianhuan into his arms, "Beauty, how can I be willing?"
This matter did not end because Feng Laojiu was punished. The provincial governor sent a letter to reprimand Zhong Han, telling Zhong Han that if necessary, he could dismiss some of his subordinates. He sent a new army and arrived in Haizhou in a few days.And many people around Zhong Han had already had enough of the endless rules and regulations, and seeing Feng Laojiu's fate, they all left without saying goodbye.
On the other hand, Feng Laojiu, healed his wounds in silence, and he was still beside Zhong Han when he recovered from his injuries, without saying a word of complaint.After recovering from the injury, he took the initiative to find a few old buddies who came out together from Huaguo Mountain, a total of 15 people, and exchanged posts with Zhong Han to become sworn brothers again. The blessings and difficulties are shared, which comforted Zhong Han a lot.
Wen Yuzhu was not included in the list of sworn brothers, but because of his special relationship with Zhong Han and a little proficiency in writing, he was sent to a public school as an inspector.Wen Qingyun was delighted to see that her younger brother was finally on the right path, and she donated a large sum of money to a public school that was short of funds. After the first exam, three poor students won the first, second and third places, and it was Wen Qingyun who came from Mao Yong He took a sum of money and sent the three of them to Dongyang to study. This is the first batch of overseas students in Haizhou City after Shen Xiaoduan. They will return to China after studying and have made achievements in their respective majors, but this is all for later.
3,
Two months later, Wen Qingyun sent someone to bring Qingzhu to Shen's house. When Qingzhu came back, Qingzhu was smiling, and Zhong Han was in a daze, "What's the matter? What treasure did you get?"
"My sister is pregnant." Qing Zhu's eyes were shining, with unquestionable excitement, and he was sincerely happy, "It's not easy, Shen'er died, and my sister lost half her life. I've never seen her really happy before, it's my sister's wish to give birth to a boy and a half girl for the Shen family, and now it's finally come true."
Zhong Han listened, his heart sank for a moment, his brows furrowed and then widened. It turned out that he was so stupid, he had to put the facts before his eyes to understand what daydreaming is.Now, it's time to wake up from the dream.Zhong Han was drunk that night, and dragged Yu Jiakang to learn to sing revolutionary songs. The entire Dudu Mansion rang out all night with out of tune singing. When the sky was about to dawn, Zhong Han lay down beside Qing Zhu, unconscious He touched her cheek with wet tears.
"I'm sorry." He said vaguely, raising his hand and being held by another hand.
"My sister is the eldest mistress of the Shen family, and I will always be. I will be your daughter-in-law, and I will always be." Qingzhu's gentle voice fell on Zhong Han, crushing this tough man, and threw him into her arms.
Wen Yuzhu is the happiest person in the whole Haizhou City. The two sisters had a wedding almost at the same time. He is going to be an uncle, and his work as a school inspector is going well. In the eyes of the students in the public school, he is a young man There is a majesty.They always like to come to his room when they have nothing to do, and pester him to tell stories about being forced to go to Liangshan after escaping from death.When he spoke, his heart was full of pride and pride that he had never had before.All this happened too fast, he was lifted up to the sky, and his steps were high, but he didn't think it was vain.
Wen Qingyun raised her baby at home, this time she was 12 extra careful, and changed her meal to a small stove, and asked Xuelian to watch it herself.Shen Xiaoru came to see her twice a day, saw her belly swell day by day, and said with a smile, I want a daughter, it's a good word.Dongmei followed behind Shen Xiaoru, accusing him of being careless, her sister was looking forward to her son.There must be a positive exit in the long room.
Wen Qingyun pretended not to hear the words, she was still wary of Dongmei, Shen Shen's death, Yang Jing'an took half, Dongmei took half, she knew it very well, but there was no evidence, so she couldn't say it out.Furthermore, Dongmei is currently a hero, with Shen Hao's face, she can't move.Everything is under pressure, she thinks there will be a day when there will be a chance for revenge.So she also pretended to smile, "I didn't think about it that much, as long as I'm safe and sound."
Unintentional words were heard in the ears of those who cared, like needle pricks, and the hairs on Hun's body stood on end.Back in the South Courtyard, Dongmei pulled Shen Hao over, grabbed the tiny arm that was not yet grown up and said, You must remember that Mother has done so much, all for you.If you are not filial to your mother in the future, you will be struck by lightning.Shen Hao couldn't understand, and even clamored to quit his husband and go to public school.Dongmei slapped her son on the buttocks. The school inspectors are murder fugitives. Are you looking for death?Dongmei had no other hope. Yang Jing'an never looked back once she left. She was searched in the countryside, but they couldn't find her. It was as if the figure had disappeared out of thin air.Some people say that he was killed by the rebels, some say that he went to the mountains to become a Taoist priest, and some say that he took a large sum of money and went to the sea to go to Nanyang.Dongmei believed it, knowing that this person would never come back.Maybe she and Madam Shen were the only ones in the entire Shen family who still cared about Yang Jing'an. Once she revealed the matter to Ai Ai expectantly, and saw Madam Shen shed tears.In the evening, Dongmei burned a lot of ingots and paper money in the corner of the garden, which was her last contribution to this uncle.
She doesn't have the guts to do anything now, seeing Wen Qingyun's belly getting bigger day by day, what will Shen Hao do in the future?Wen Qingyun hasn't found trouble with their mother and son over the years, maybe she's just waiting to settle the score after the fall, how should she deal with it at that time?When you worry too much, it becomes a gritted hatred, even Shen Xiaoru hates it, if you don't marry him, how can you live in such fear?Just as he was thinking about it, he suddenly heard a loud noise outside, jumped off the bed in a panic, stepped on the cool ground with both feet, and then woke up a bit, picked up Shen Hao, and ran away from the door.
Wen Qingyun was falling asleep, a woman had a body, she would doze off a lot, and sleep deeply, the shouting and gunfire outside didn't wake her up, fortunately Xuelian was still there, she didn't care about the distinction between the maidservant and the master, so she came up and used her strength Shake, shake her out of her sweet dreams.
"Miss, it's not good, we're fighting again!"
Wen Qingyun was a little sober, but couldn't believe it, "What did you say? What kind of battle are you fighting?"
"I don't know either. Listen to the gunshots outside. It's been going on for a while. They say that half of Haizhou City is on fire." Xue Lian didn't speak clearly, but it was enough to show the seriousness of the situation.
Wen Qingyun put on her clothes as fast as she could, and walked out of the west courtyard with Xuelian.At this time, the family members in the yard were in a mess like headless chickens.Wen Qingyun took Xuelian to the gate, and just halfway there, she saw Mi Fu, who was dressed in black and gray, rushing towards her.
"Eldest young mistress, it's amazing, Maoyong was robbed by the rebels!"
Wen Qingyun grabbed Mifford's arm, "Where is he? Is the guy injured? What did they take away?"
"It's all taken away, and it's called the new army. I don't think it's even as good as the bandits." Mifu wiped the sweat off his face, and then said: "Young Mistress, who do you think led the army? Gu Baoshan! He It became a new revolutionary army again, and the people at the bottom held steel guns and said that they were ordered by the governor of the Jiangbei New Army to suppress the bandits. Where did this come from? Now they are looking for you all over the world. Hurry up Run away, it will be too late!"
Mi Fu was right, Gu Baoshan was the new battalion sent by the provincial governor to Haizhou, because of the riot in Huainan, he received an order to put down the rebellion halfway, which delayed the time.The Governor's Mansion thought about sending another person to come, but Gu Baoshan tried his best to stop it. He wanted to return to Haizhou even in his dreams, and he was ashamed!
Wen Qingyun panicked, Gu Baoshan rushed back to Haizhou, she was the first one she would not let go, she glanced at Xuelian, at this time there was a rough roar and the sound of footsteps outside the door.
"Miss, go through the corner gate of the garden." Xue Lian suddenly became alert, and she and Mi Fu ran towards the garden with Wen Qingyun on their backs.
Wen Qingyun struggled a bit, "No, I'm leaving, what about Yu Zhu and Qing Zhu? They will be in danger."
Mifford said these words, and put all his strength into his hands, "Young Mistress, you go first, I will go to find Master Yuzhu and Miss Qingzhu right away, don't worry, even if I risk my life, I will take the letter delivered to you."
Xue Lian was about to cry, "Miss, let's go, if you delay, it will be too late."
In the chaos, they could already hear someone shouting, "Where's your youngest mistress? Hand her over!"
"There's someone over there!"
"Go and see!"
Wen Qingyun didn't dare to linger, so she quickened her pace.When they came to the garden, Xuelian stopped suddenly, "Miss, hurry up, I will try to lure them away."
Wen Qingyun knew that there was no way out, she was clumsy, and if she walked together, no one would be able to escape, so she grabbed Xuelian's hand and said, "Xuelian, be careful." After finishing speaking, she followed Mifu three steps a step I turned around and left.She never thought that this would be the farewell between her and Xue Lian in this life.
Seeing that Wen Qingyun had already left the garden, Xuelian purposely stepped heavily, and led the pursuers to the west courtyard. The soldiers caught up, saw that it was a maid, and escorted her to the living room.Mrs. Shen and Xiaoru Dongmei were both standing in the living room. Gu Baoshan was dressed as a general of the new army, holding a new-style saber in his hand, and his riding boots were also polished, looking majestic.
He took a step forward, pulled out half of the knife, and placed it on Xuelian's chest, "Where's Wen Qingyun?"
"I don't know." Xue Lian was frightened and wanted to retreat, but was pushed to the front by the soldiers behind.
Shen Xiaoru persuaded with a trembling voice, "When is this, where is the eldest young lady, why don't you say something?"
Xue Lian felt a little chilled, and asked, "Eldest young master, you don't even know where eldest young mistress is, how could a girl like me know."
Dongmei said sharply, "Are you going to kill us? Tell me quickly, are you hiding her?"
The soldiers turned the Shen family upside down, but Wen Qingyun was still nowhere to be seen. Gu Baoshan sneered and said, "Okay, good girl, you are loyal. Let me see how long you can be loyal! Somebody, tie them all up for me." stand up!"
Shen Xiaoru was the first to beg for mercy, "Master Gu, please let us go."
Mrs. Shen has more integrity than her son, "Gu Baoshan, don't bully others too much, we are officials after all, so you don't have to be afraid..."
Gu Baoshan came over and slapped Mrs. Shen across the face, "Damn old woman, you still flaunt my prestige with me. I beat you as an official!"
Mrs. Shen has never touched a finger since she was a child, and now she is old, when she was humiliated in this way in front of her grandson, she held her breath in her heart and passed out.
After all, Gu Baoshan still had some taboos, seeing this situation, he escorted Xuelian away.The Shen family looked at each other in blank dismay, wondering if this would count as escape.Only then did I remember to find a doctor and save my wife.At this time, the city has become a mess, full of scars and ruins.Where can I find a doctor?Seeing that he couldn't do business, the servants simply fled for their lives.
4,
The rebellious soldiers burned, killed and looted in the city, so naturally they would not let Zuimengxuan's gold-selling cave go.Gu Fgan kicked the door that was closed at the beginning, and someone rushed in behind him, and dragged out the woman who was hiding in the cabinet under the bed. The eardrums of everyone present.
"You bastards, I don't think who dares to move? You don't ask who the aunt is. There is no aunt, and Zhong Han and his gang are scattered. Now you can enter Haizhou City? The surname is Hou, he hid Where have you been? Tell him to come out and see me!" Jiu Lianhuan cursed amazingly, but his body was wrapped by two soldiers and he couldn't help himself.
Gu Fgan frowned slightly, walked in front of Jiu Lianhuan, tilted his head, dodged a mouthful of saliva, and said in a dissatisfied tone, "It's the Republic of China now, put away your tricks of the green gang female bachelors, and call again, I will make you look good! "
Jiu Lianhuan raised her head, "You were still in the mother's womb when my aunt was walking in the rivers and lakes. How dare you talk to me like that? You fucking..."
Gu Fgan waved his hand and called a soldier, "Take him away!"
"You dare to arrest me? You forgot that it was my aunt who set up the game and killed Master Jiu, so that you can get what you want? The surname is Hou, you get out of here, open your dog eyes and see that this is the accomplice you are looking for! You still think that they will keep their word and let you get rich, just dream!" Jiu Lianhuan scolded happily, while Gu Fgan's face changed drastically, some soldiers were still in the dark, and some people had already guessed some clues.Gu Fgan didn't have time to think about it, he took out the saber from Ma Bian and sent it into Jiu Lianhuan's heart, his voice stopped suddenly.
This is Gu Baoshan's secret. He colluded with the leader of the Green Gang Hou to wipe out Zhong Han's strength. Therefore, Jiulianhuan went to frame Feng Laojiu, and the benefit he got was to regain the opium management rights banned by Zhong Han and Yu Jiakang.Jiu Lianhuan didn't want to be involved in this matter at first, but he was helpless in the arena. He didn't expect that he would end up in such a bleak way after making a mistake.
At this time, Wen Qingyun was already hiding on a cargo ship. She and Mi Fu agreed to wait here. Mi Fu went back to pick up Yu Zhu and Qing Zhu, and they fled Haizhou City together.Unexpectedly, as soon as Miff left, the boatman drove the boat away.Wen Qingyun turned pale with fright and clamored to go ashore.The boatman had no choice but to say, "Eldest young mistress, I'm doing it for your own good. If you don't leave, you won't be able to leave until they find it. In this world, it depends on your own fate. If the person you are waiting for has a big fate, it will naturally turn into danger." Ji, if you can't escape this calamity, why should you be involved?"
Wen Qingyun felt helpless, so she had no choice but to stay at the bottom of the bilge, listening to the gurgling sound of the Qiangwei River, her heart twisted into a ball.
Sure enough, Miff didn't come back. When he found the public school, the so-called new bandit suppression army had already surrounded the public school. He cast himself in the trap. A newcomer pulled the trigger without blinking, and the bullet penetrated Miff. He didn't feel any pain, but a chill spread from the soles of his feet to the top of his head, and he didn't know anything after that.
Wen Yuzhu climbed over the wall and went to the Dudu Mansion to find Zhong Han.At this time, Yu Jiakang and Zhong Han were arguing over whether to disperse and break through or to fight without a fight.Yu Jiakang was angry with the scholar, thinking that since he was both a member of the Revolutionary Party, there was no unreasonable misunderstanding, no matter how fierce and rude Gu Baoshan was, he was also a member of the Revolutionary Army, so it made sense.Zhong Han slapped the table, what kind of idiot logic is this?He knew Gu Baoshan too well, and he came back this time to seek revenge. He brought them together, and then said that they were bandits and hard to train.To reason with such a person, don't you just give your head away?The two quarreled terribly, but fortunately the brothers still listened to the elder brother's orders, so Yu Jiakang could only hold back his words.Zhong Han divided the brothers in his hands into several groups. The old people in Zhongjiazhai counted as one group, Wen Yuzhu and Yu Jiakang weaved together, and he led most of the troops to break through separately and gather at Zhongjiazhai in Huaguoshan.
Zhong Han's journey was relatively smooth. He walked through the south gate of Haizhou City. There were few enemy troops there and no commander was there.Yu Jiakang and Wen Yuzhu were not so lucky. They rushed to the street and met the team led by Gu Baoshan. They could have rushed out among the crowd, but Yu Jiakang finally couldn't hold back and wanted to kill an enemy to vent his anger, revealing his whereabouts , together with Wen Yuzhu was captured alive.
Wen Qingyun hid in Zizhu Nunnery, and Master Ci Ning knew about her relationship with Zhong Han, so he specially vacated a nunnery for her to live in temporarily. Qingzhu had already been sent to the nunnery by Zhong Han because she wanted to have a baby, knowing that her sister was coming. Come over to see, the two sisters didn't expect to meet under such circumstances, and each sighed in their hearts for a while.Ci Ning had received Zhong Han's kindness, and treated the two distinguished guests with hospitality. While sending people to prepare porridge and vegetarian dishes, at the same time, he sent his disciples down the mountain to inquire about news.Not long after, the little apprentice came back with a sad face. The houses in Haizhou City were collapsed, and everyone rushed to avoid it. I heard that many bandit leaders were caught, including the former death row prisoner Wen Yuzhu!
Wen Qingyun almost fainted when she heard that, what would happen if Yuzhu fell into their hands?No, she wants to go back, even if she exchanges herself for Yu Zhu, she must save her innocent brother!Ci Ning couldn't stop him, so he had to send people to make eighteen rounds, and invited Zhong Han over.
Zhong Han is also planning to kill and return to Haizhou to avenge his brother who died unjustly. Through his eyeliner, he has already learned that Wen Yuzhu and Yu Jiakang have fallen into the enemy's hands. Unfortunately, he is not enough manpower now. He is not Gu Baoshan's opponent, and there is no hope for a sneak attack , also at the moment of helplessness.Seeing that Wen Qingyun was resolute, she also said that she would go together.
Qing Zhu is now more sober than them, "Are you crazy? Go back to die? Sister, you have to think about the child in your stomach if you don't think about yourself. And you," she turned to Zhong Han, "Do you want your child to be born? Come down and not see dad?"
Zhong Han took a few steps on the spot and sighed heavily, "Gu Baoshan, I will keep this account for you!"
Wen Qingyun was woken up by her younger sister, and she couldn't save her younger brother by rushing back, and her own life was in danger.She thought for a while and said, "If you want to save people, the only way is to move troops!"
Zhong Han asked, "They have already turned their faces and refused to recognize anyone, and moved troops, who will save them?"
"I'm going to Beijing." Wen Qingyun had made up her mind in a blink of an eye, her eyes were burning, "I'll go to my master, he should have a way to save the Shen family!"
Zhong Han refused to agree to Wen Qingyun's trip to Beijing in person, and the reason was very good, "The road is dangerous, and you are pregnant, what if something happens?"
"Besides me, is there a more suitable candidate? For Yuzhu, I have to fight no matter what. I can't let him go to the execution ground again."
Zhong Han originally wanted to personally escort Wen Qingyun on the road, but looking back at Qing Zhu who was pregnant with Liujia, some words were hard to say.In the end, Feng Laojiu had to work hard.
"No matter what, you have to keep her safe." Zhong Han explained.
Wen Qingyun looked at Zhong Han, and solemnly asked, "I leave all my brothers and sisters to you, and you must live until I come back!"
