After Waking up Beside the Villain - Chapter 186
But in fact, except for James, who was completely unfamiliar with Yu Jingzhi, the rest of the people sitting on the sofa didn’t have any surprises at his unseemly words and deeds. Anyone who has information sources in their hands will be Yu Jingzhi who will be the first person to investigate when they arrive in Haicheng.
Otherwise, how did the emperor’s statement come from?
A solid force than most warlords.
Such a person is destined to be valued.
And as long as you have seen Yu Jingzhi’s intelligence files on the desk and seen Yu Jingzhi with your own eyes, you will understand that in the many rumors that go viral in Haicheng, Yu Jingzhi is moody The description is quite apt and consistent with the facts.
So, what is strange about his reaction to someone who has been belittling and ridiculing Huaguo and himself for so long?
“You are so rude, Yu.”
Julian frowned and said coldly.
He has always hated unruly people.
Gao Lan said with a persuasive look, “Mr. Yu, you have passed.”
Yu Jingzhi glanced at Gao Lan, but ignored him and said with a smile, “Mr. Pete doesn’t want to say anything?”
Pete raised his eyes, glanced at Chu Yunsheng, and then looked at Yu Jingzhi: “Yu, I know exactly what you want. But we talk about rules, which is humane, not rules, It’s also reasonable. You should be aware of that.”
“Of course, we are not robbers. Doctor Chu and the details of the medicine can exchange a promise from our English. This is already the biggest concession I can give to this deal. As for the European conference, there is nothing I can do.”
“A promise from England?”
Yu Jingzhi sneered.
What’s the difference between this and the empty-glove white wolf’s clear grab?
What’s more, as early as when he put down some so-called identities and stereotypes, and went to visit those foreigners’ residences directly with Mr. Fang Jiming, he already knew that no matter what the surface gave him No matter how much respect you have, how pleasant and friendly the moments of conversation are, the end result will not change.
Because it’s not about someone or someone, it’s about the land. They are not considered to be of the same kind at a poker table.
“Pete, you and I both know that this promise doesn’t make any sense.”
Yu Jingzhidao: “I can say bluntly, whether it is Yunsheng or the information of the medicine, you can’t take it away.”
Julian narrowed his eyes: “Yu, don’t you ask Dr. Chu what he means?”
The next second, it was not Yu Jingzhi but Chu Yunsheng who answered him.
“No need.”
In fifty years, this place will no longer be your noble concession.”
Julian’s complexion became completely cold, he withdrew his gaze at Chu Yunsheng, raised his brows contemptuously and thoughtlessly: “Oh, then I’ll wait and see.”
“That’s it.”
Yu Jingzhi put down his boots, sat up straight, looked at the people present one by one, and said casually: “I can’t eat, and I have finished drinking, if Mr. If there is nothing else to talk about, then Yu will have to leave.”
Saying goodbye, but Yu Jingzhi has no plans to get up.
He just felt that the time had come to peel off this most superficial temptation to reveal the ultimate purpose of this banquet.
They pride themselves on their identities, and they love to speak the slogan of equality, so they don’t show some sinister easily.
There must be a deeper reason and purpose for today’s abnormality.
Pete sighed, with a hint of sigh in his tone, said: “Yu, it’s still early, you are so eager to leave, do you have something to do, or there is really no way to share with us anymore Did you sit down?”
Chu Yunsheng’s heart sank slightly.
These two options are actually the same meaning.
Yu Jingzhi’s trip to Peiping, the new factory building in Zhabei District, the changes in the patrol house and the Tianminghui, the door-to-door visit for the peace meeting, the impounded train in Qilu, the death of Adams and the Oriental Intelligence Network The removal of all kinds of things, finally achieved an explosion under the catalysis of Gao Lan.
The foreigners can support a person who does not obey them to lead the sea city outside the concession, but they will never allow a person who is hostile to them, and try to use the support of military force and machine medicine to drive them away The people of the forces of walking exist.
In the past, Yu Jingzhi was the former, but now, his activities and attitudes in the past year have revealed that he is the latter.
This is a wicked jackal disguised as a wild dog that needs to be killed by a shotgun.
Of course, there may be hunters who are really willing to speak some moral words, and they will choose to save their lives for domestication, but with the end of the war, Europe can already free up its hands to do something else , so they changed some attitudes again, let the previous hunter leave and let Pete come.
Chu Yunsheng is also clear, maybe they have caught the clues of Yu Jingzhi before, and it is not that they have no doubts about him.
But at that time they didn’t have so much energy to disperse, there is no certain evidence, and there is no more suitable puppet candidate, and Yu Jingzhi is not too much, they can still maintain it in vain and condescending each other’s face.
But now it’s different.
Yu Jingzhi and Chu Yunsheng had the same idea, he was silent for a moment, then laughed, and said, “I think you don’t care how I answer this question, Mr. Pete.”
“You and Julian’s words and deeds just now, whether it’s asking for medicine or poaching Yunsheng, this idea may be true, but the real intention is not one. Because that is for you both It’s all small things, and there are so many ways you can choose to achieve your goals.”
“There is only one thing you really value, and that is Haicheng.”
“So, Mr. Pete, what do you want me to say, that I can’t stand you unfriendly foreigners for a long time, and I have been jealous of you for a long time, thinking about it all the time To expel you from the land of China?”
things, beautiful and complete?”
Yu Jingzhi raised his eyebrows and smiled slightly: “But allow me to remind the two of you. Neither Yu Jingzhi nor many people in Haicheng are fish and meat between knives. I don’t like it. Do this, if you can’t do this, you will be on the chopping board, but you can’t say for sure, it’s a hard bone that hits a knife.”
Pete pursed his lips, and Yu Jingzhi looked at each other coldly.
Before he could speak, Yoshida Kotaro shouted angrily: “Yu Jingzhi, you are provoking Mr. Pete! Are you trying to fight English?!”
This angry shout almost pierced the humming voice, making the huge banquet hall suddenly silent, and many side glances.
Pete said displeased: “Mr. Yoshida, please don’t make too much noise.”
Yoshida Kotaro’s expression froze, but there was no embarrassment. He changed his expression very naturally, lowered his head and said: “Sorry, Mr. Pete, it was me who lost my temper. Hearing this kind of remark, I really feel Very angry, I have reason to believe that this is an insult to the majesty of the great empire on which the sun never sets.”
Pete glanced at Kotaro Yoshida, rather tired.
The clown gets tired of the comedy too.
What’s more, he knew that the clown’s performance had another purpose. This kind of talk is nothing more than Toyo’s desire to pull England into the water. They coveted the vast territory of China, but they did not have the absolute confidence to conquer it.
“You are wise, Yu.”
Pete said: “You know that once the seeds of doubt are planted, the original soil will no longer be able to grow the fruit of trust.”
Pete’s words were a little more English and subtle, but Julian would not be so shy, he took this sentence and said: “There is no cooperation between us and you. The foundation is over, Yu Jingzhi. If you are persuaded to leave the troubles of Haicheng and go to other cities, then Mr. Pete and I can guarantee that you can take away your soldiers and your wealth smoothly.”
“You will not be hindered, threatened, you just need to live in another place. You may lose your current position, but in such a land, you have guns, money, and anytime can re-establish a higher status.”
“You can recall the ending of the masters before you, I don’t think you want that ending.”
Yu Jingzhi clapped his hands and said, “It’s a good plan. But Mr. Julian, I have a question. You don’t know about the movement of the Eastern Army to the south, so I think Ask, if one day, the Eastern Army arrives at Haicheng, and the troops are under the city, will you be willing to protect the entire Haicheng?”
“Or, you will only draw a white line to separate the gunfire and artillery fire on the other side of the Suzhou River, and in those civilian areas where life is like a mustard?”
Pete laughed: “God, Yu, I didn’t expect you to be such a kind person. Then you should see more, our soldiers are also ordinary people who only have one life, they don’t It’s time to risk something worthless.”
This answer was completely expected by Yu Jingzhi.
He said: “You firmly believe that there will be no day when Toyo will aim the muzzle at you.”
Pete smiled and Julian shrugged.
“So you rejected our proposal.” Julian said.
“Obvious.” Yu Jingzhi also smiled, his eyebrows stretched, all sharp and fearless.
At this time, James of the American Empire suddenly raised his hand and said: “Everyone, please wait a moment, and then talk about it, I have reason to believe that you are going to shoot on the spot. I think this There is room for negotiation on this matter, right? For example, Mr. Yu doesn’t have to leave Haicheng at all, he just needs to give some things to Mr. Gao. Mr. Gao came from a long way and needs a place to stand, which is understandable.”
Pete’s gaze at James was imperceptibly colder: “You are imagining, James. The loudest voice, we only need one.”
“But I don’t think Mr. Gao deserves so much trust.” James said very directly, ignoring Gao Lan sitting beside him.
Julian frowned and said, “Then you may be able to hear about the secret conversation between Gao Lan and Yu Jingzhi at the Guanglai Teahouse?”
“No, no, Mr. Julian, it’s more confusing.” James shook his head.
Chu Yunsheng paid attention to Gao Lan when the three foreigners were arguing, and sure enough, after hearing James’ suggestion, Gao Lan’s expression became almost undisguised and ugly, no one Willing to be the latecomer to be suppressed.
But Chu Yunsheng knew that James seemed to be fighting for something for Yu Jingzhi, but in fact, his performance was no different from the attitude of the US emperor at the European meeting. He wants to use Yu Jingzhi to grab more benefits between the British and French decisions, but he is doomed to fail.
“Gentlemen, you seem to be having some unpleasantness?”
Suddenly, the German officer Andre, who was second only to Adams in Haicheng, came over, smiled and looked at the people present inquiringly.
Pete laughed: “Long time no see, Andre. Don’t worry about a little dispute.”
“That’s good, I wish you a happy meal.” Andre said.
Chu Yunsheng tilted his head slightly.
Out of the corner of his eyes, he saw that as soon as Andrei’s figure appeared, Julian, who had never been drinking, suddenly became interested in wine tasting, took a glass of red wine, and at the same time , his gaze seemed to be deflected unintentionally, as if he was looking in the direction of Louis.
After a few polite words, Andre was about to turn around and leave, but at this moment, Louis, who had been silent as a still life, suddenly raised his head, patted the armrest of the wheelchair, and said loudly: “An Andre, the murderer of Mr. Adams is sitting here, are you still going to ignore it cowardly and leave?”
Andre took a light footstep.
“What are you talking about, Louis?” He glanced at Chu Yunsheng and Yu Jingzhi without a trace, his face full of confusion.
Louis outstretched his arm like a sharp sword, pointing directly at Chu Yunsheng and Yu Jingzhi.
Shot and wounded me and threatened Mr. Adams and me with all sorts of unprincipled things!”
“Andre! You know that everything I say is true. We have witnesses and evidence, but why dare you not identify them!”
“They are murderers!”
Andre frowned and shouted: “Louis!”
Pete and Julian were surprised: “Andre, is what Louis said true? Did Dr. Yu and Chu kill Adams?”
Seeing this scene, Chu Yunsheng was about to give these two an acting award.
Gao Lan also spoke.
He looked sad and tried to contain the hatred, and said: “Although it is unbelievable, but this is the truth. After I came to Haicheng, I investigated in detail the assassination of Mr. Adams. I have seen a lot of evidence and testimony. It is hard for me to imagine that Mr. Yu and Dr. Chu are such vicious murderers, and they are also trying to find other evidence, but this is the truth. “
“Mr. Adams is my best friend and he invited me to Haicheng. Today’s reception was originally prepared by him for me. Ignore the death of a friend.”
Speaking of this, dozens of lively guests who were close to the vicinity, suspected of carefully exploring the big men, all suddenly drew their guns.
The illusion of peace and friendship was suddenly pierced.
The situation turned sharply, like a crossbow.
The rest of the guests were shocked when they saw this, barely maintaining their dignity and not screaming, but they also panicked and quickly raised their skirts or walking sticks and ran away to the outside of the banquet hall.
Andre shouted: “Guards!”
The door of the banquet hall opened, and two columns of German soldiers rushed in quickly, holding guns, and surrounded the pretended guests with guns.
There are also bodyguards in front of everyone present, and they draw their guns to protect them.
“This is the second choice Mr. Pete gave us?” Chu Yunsheng also had a gun in his hand.
You should be punished as you should, and I hope you don’t try to resist, making mistakes again and again.”
Yu Jingzhi sneered: “The rabbit will bite when it is in a hurry. Why don’t you think about it, besides your people, how many people are there of mine?”
“If you can keep me today, you may be able to use the trick of using China to control China, and use Gao Lan to win over people’s hearts again, and barely suppress my backhand to counterattack. But if you stay Without me, all the gentlemen here, I’m afraid all of them will have to die in a foreign country.”
Julian’s eyes changed slightly, and he asked: “Are you crazy, Yu Jingzhi? Whose dignity are you challenging?”
Flicking the buckle of the gun bag, Yu Jingzhi took out the gun, and smiled slowly: “How long does it take for the war to end, France can not care about humiliation, and Germany is in harmony, seeking common interests, Mr. Julian What dignity are you talking about with me?”
The muzzle of the surrounded muzzle shrank a little closer.
They stared at Yu Jingzhi’s skull, moving with his movements, full of imminent danger.
“Stupid pig!”
Julian was really angry, and cursed almost disgracefully.
Before he finished speaking, Chu Yunsheng’s muzzle abruptly raised and pointed at his head.
Yu Jingzhi looked around, his eyes were as cold and sharp as a falcon, he hooked the corner of his lower lip and said, “Since the evidence and testimony are all together, and it is determined that we are the murderers, then why not shot?”
Pete said coldly: “You need to be tried by the law.”
“Stop talking about these high-sounding words, Pete.” Yu Jingzhi waved his hands impatiently, “You have already set up such a battle, that is, you are ready to fight with me. But You don’t shoot, there’s only one reason, the news you’ve been waiting for hasn’t come yet.”
Hearing this, Julian, Gao Lan and the others changed their expressions.
“What did you do?”
“You are monitoring the Jiangxi Army!”
Pete stared at Yu Jingzhi and said: “It seems that you have already noticed it, Yu. But whatever you do, it is in vain. Even if there is no power that can completely shake you here for the time being , but our ships and troops can go ashore at any time.”
Yu Jingzhi opened the bolt and said, “Everyone, don’t be nervous.”
“I’m really just protecting myself, like you said, just hoping for peace.”
He softened his expression and showed a gentle and gentle smile again: “Mr. Pete, you want to drive me away, it is actually very unnecessary. After the Qingzhou Peninsula is divided into Dongyang, Dongyang The army will go south in a few days, and the boundary other than the concession will only be the place where I and the Eastern Army will work hard.”
“This day is coming soon, and now you bear with me, it is no different from supporting Gao Lan to enter the main sea city. Of course, if you don’t want to give up the area outside the concession , If you want to fight Toyo, then pretend I didn’t say that.”
“Or in other words, if you put up with me, it’s a more cost-effective deal. At least I have no chance of fighting with Dongyang Hua for jade and silk, but Gao Lan may not be.”
Gao Lan was shocked and immediately retorted: “Yu Jingzhi, stop talking nonsense!”
Besides, Yoshida Kotaro’s expression moved slightly, and he glanced at Pete subconsciously.
Pete was silent.
Yu Jingzhi smiled and said: “And my request is not as complicated as you think. There is only one, that is, I hope Mr. Pete can agree, and when the Eastern Army arrives, he can accept all The people of Haicheng took refuge in the concession and provided them with the resources necessary to survive.”
” Of course, if you can’t do it, be careful of those people on the street and in the building who pass by you unintentionally. Come on guns and do justice.”
“This is a total loss business!” Louie said by the side.
But Julian stopped talking, he was also thinking about measurement.
Yu Jingzhi was still waiting patiently, surrounded by familiar guns and guns.
If Pete and Julian can count a little, they should know that his proposal is the most secure.
Using British and French troops to cause chaos in Haicheng, and beware of assassinations at all times, introducing a puppet they don’t trust too much, this is a good choice in normal times.
Of course, that would also give Yu Jingzhi more time to make more arrangements.
“No, Yu, I can’t trust you anymore.”
After the long stalemate silence, Pete said solemnly.
The atmosphere condensed and fell into a trough.
But Pitt then said: “But about Adams’ stab, we haven’t really seen the evidence, it’s very inappropriate to shoot or arrest anyone now. of.”
Gao Lan raised his head, frowning slightly.
This look fell into Chu Yunsheng’s eyes, and he knew that although the plan of Pete and others today was not successful, the purpose of him and Yu Jingzhi’s coming here has been achieved – Gao Lan Can’t join forces with Toyos anymore, and Pete won’t really accept him.
In addition, although Pete now says that he refuses to accept civilians, Chu Yunsheng is very clear, using Gao Lan and others as bait, after thoroughly seeing the details of Yu Jingzhi, after obtaining today’s results, he will choose to accept this condition.
Andre said: “It seems that it is still a misunderstanding for the time being.”
This is a skillful statement.
Louis was unwilling, but he lowered his eyes and closed his mouth.
“Since it’s a misunderstanding, let’s go, Mr. Gao.” Yu Jingzhi asked the host of the banquet very sincerely.
Gao Lan stared at Yu Jingzhi coldly and did not answer.
But Yu Jingzhi didn’t need his answer either.
Lu Yun and Liu Er followed backwards, guarding their backs, but until the four figures completely disappeared behind the heavy mahogany gate, there was no gunshot.
A bizarre reception banquet ended like this seemingly anticlimactic.
But in the eyes of many people, this may not be the end, but only the beginning.
In the early morning of the next day, many places in Haicheng lit up the sky, and there was a dull sound of artillery bombing outside the city.
Gao Lan sat in Pete’s study, looking at the red sky outside the window, and whispered: “It was my fault that I didn’t complete your test, Mr. Pete. Yu Jingzhi sent troops to take my The subordinates are blocked outside the city, if they want to enter Haicheng, I am afraid they will still have to fight tonight.”
Pete stood by the window and shook his head lightly when he heard the words: “March and intelligence are always changing things. You just need to learn the lesson this time, Mr. Gao.”
Gao Lan smiled: “Mr. Pete, you mean…”
Pete turned around, laughed, and stretched out his hand to Gao Lan: “I want to say that your performance has been very good, Mr. Gao. In the future, happy cooperation!”
Holding Pete’s palm, Gao Lan’s heavy heart finally completely relaxed.
In these days, he has been in contact with various forces, but what he really wants to cooperate or take refuge with is neither Germany nor Toyo, but England. But he didn’t want to be a worthless lackey like Du Tianming, so he chose to accept Pete’s test.
This is the real reason why he insisted on holding this reception.
In the name of Germany, secretly negotiated with Louis and Julian, and used the power of France to achieve the result of getting rid of Yu Jingzhi. This is Gao Lan’s plan. On the surface, it relies on Germany, but in fact it invests in France, but all this is controlled by England, which is not uncomplicated. And precisely because of this complexity, it can better conceal his true actions.
In fact, in addition to Pete, Gao Lan also has a backer.
He has always maintained an ambiguous relationship with the oriental people, and doesn’t mind taking advantage of the oriental people who hate Yu Jing.
But unfortunately, Yu Jingzhi’s move to stop him from entering the city has made the oriental people have some grudges. At the evening reception banquet, he publicly declared that Adams was his best friend, and was eventually arrested. Forced to let Yu Jingzhi and Chu Yunsheng go, at this point, he and the Dongyang people can only use each other, and it is difficult to have real cooperation.
But he no longer cares about this interest.
He has earned Pete’s trust, although this trust is a bit perfunctory under his mistakes. But it was enough for him to let go and do what he wanted to do.
A week later, Gao Lan’s men finally broke through the obstacles and came to the county seat near Haicheng. Gao Lan secretly left Haicheng and went to meet.
When ordering troops, he scolded Yu Jingzhi, distressed for his damaged troops, but did not notice the many more unfamiliar faces in this team.
On the same day, the phone in Yu Jingzhi’s study rang. The European conference took several months and finally ended.
…
Two months later.
The weather is getting colder and winter is coming.
Bai Chu was sitting in the backstage of the theater to remove her makeup, when she suddenly heard a sound from the wooden door. When he looked in the mirror, he saw a small figure creeping in.
Now, the theater will be closed and not open.”
Bai Chu was not surprised, just nodded slowly, while taking off his headdress, he said, “Boss Xu is going to leave Haicheng and flee?”
The little boy nodded: “The boss said he was going to Jinnan, where he went to join relatives. Boss Bai, are you not leaving?”
“Go? Where are you going?” Bai Chu said.
There’s still a theater. Boss Bai, didn’t the boss tell you?”
Bai Chu stroked her broken hair, got up and went to the copper basin, dipped her hands with water, her clear and sweet voice was very light: “I said so, but I don’t want to leave.”
The young master widened his eyes: “Why don’t you want to leave? Boss Bai, didn’t you hear the siren? Buzz-buzz-that’s the sound! Everyone in the theater said, then It’s going to be a war, and if you don’t leave, you won’t be able to leave, and people will die!”
In the past two weeks, the edge of the Haicheng County area has always been indistinctly heard the sound of the plane, and the emergency siren will sound a few times from time to time, scaring people to dare not go to the street, only hide in the Only in the cellar in the kang cave at home can be regarded as swallowing a heart back into the stomach.
But that’s all for the first few days.
Later, the concession posted a notice and published a newspaper, saying that there might be a war, and they could take refuge from residents outside the concession, but the supplies were limited and could not be taken by everyone, priority was given to those with identification Yes, there are rules when you go in. You have to wash your face and face, and simply check your body. You can’t put everyone in it.
These are all made by the Mr. Yu, but they have been stamped with English and French seals, and they are effective, even the oriental people dare not collide with them casually.
People first waited and tested for a while, and then rushed into the concession.
At this time, many people have an idea, that is, the concession is the safest place in the world.
There are foreigners who are guarding, and if the war is turned upside down outside, can it really disturb the concession?
Some people were really frightened. They felt that the concession was by no means a safe area. ? Or, it was the British and French concessions. The Orientals came and negotiated. If there are enough interests, can Britain and France still protect them to the end?
They don’t believe it.
In this way, they want to leave Haicheng completely and go to other places. China is so big, and they can’t fight everywhere. Boss Xu is such a person.
“Little Sanzi, do you know what war is?” Bai Chu smiled and bent over to wash his face.
The sound of water.
Little Sanzi grinned: “Of course I know, Boss Bai, I heard from the guests. The battle was very fierce. There were soldiers carrying guns, and when the shuttle swooped down, the common people followed the wheat stubble. All the same, they all fell down and couldn’t get up again.”
“There are also those students who go to the streets in groups on Xinting Street. They all say that they will die for the national disaster. I haven’t been to school, I can’t read, and I don’t understand, but the boss said, I will die. It’s death, and fighting is killing people, and many, many people die…”
already.”
Bai Chu listened to the sound of the door clattering, and stood in a trance for a while before turning around to continue packing.
A few minutes later, he picked up his small suitcase, informed the people in the theater, hired a car from the back door, and went home.
As soon as he left, he gave such a hurried look, and he saw that the theater was still singing a big show, and the theater where the guests gathered was already empty. coming and going.
On the street, the rickshaw went for a while to meet the chilling wind, only to meet one or two pedestrians who looked in a hurry, and there were several shops in the next section with their doors closed, so they were closed. .
Passing the corner of Xinting Street, there is a simple table there, and two or three students are holding banners written in brush and handing out orders.
Bai Chu stopped as usual, took a copy, and carried a free Oriental newspaper.
He sat on the bumpy rickshaw and glanced at the newspaper. The whole front page was about the Oriental people, and the second page was about the peace meeting. Months, but as the Eastern Army set foot on the Qingzhou Peninsula, it intensified and did not stop.
He was literate in the past, but he didn’t like to read these things, and he didn’t care about it. The things outside are outside things, not his things, nor the things on the stage.
But maybe because there were too many snacks in Zhouji, and the shouting of the parade outside the door was too loud, he unconsciously began to pay attention to these things, so that he went crazy and made Stupid, the alarm sounded for three consecutive days, and I was lazy and didn’t want to pack my luggage and leave.
But he already lives in the concession, so it should be okay. But he stayed, just because he felt the concession was safe?
Maybe not.
Bai Chu thought of the scene when Boss Xu of the theater came to persuade him to leave together a few days ago.
The ashes of the cigarette between Boss Xu’s fingers fell on the newspapers and leaflets on his desk, and the old hoarse voice sneered: “Going to a national disaster, this is a national disaster. These students are not clearheaded. Ruining your own life. Boss Bai, don’t be deceived. You are an opera singer, Jiao’er, you should stand on the stage and be magnificent. You see, even those oriental people, don’t they all love opera? Still singing, still making money.”
“What national disaster are we going to, the sky is falling, and there is a tall one on it.”
How did he answer at that time?
He didn’t seem to answer, but he remembered the words on a flyer he saw when he lowered his eyes.
Eight characters.
Everyone is responsible for the rise and fall of the world.
Bai Chu closed the newspaper.
He was silent for a long time, then he said to the driver: “Please turn right in front of you and go to the barracks at the gate of the city.”
…
At this time, on the other side, Li Lingbi was blindfolded and pushed into a carriage.
The carriage swayed and walked for a long time before stopping at a place. Li Lingbi got off the car, the cold wind hit her face, and she smelled the fishy smell of sea water. His mouth was also gagged, unable to ask any questions, the floor under his feet swayed unsteadily, and he should have boarded the boat.
He was taken to a cabin, where he was loosened and his sight and speech restored.
“Where is this?”
The person who put him down didn’t answer, closed the door and left.
But besides him, there were two other people in the cabin, an old gentleman and a middle-aged scholar.
The old gentleman looked at him and said, “Mirror and Yunsheng told me about you. I know your value and what you have done in the past. Yangtze River, go west, Yuansheng and I, and my friends from Yuansheng, will watch you firmly.”
“You can not help us, but we will not let you go to the enemy.”
Li Lingbi was stunned for a while, feeling that the two of them looked familiar, as if they had met before: “I dare to ask you two…”
“Fang Jiming.” The old man said.
The middle-aged literati nodded: “Zheng Yuansheng.”
Li Lingbi was stunned: “Mr. Fang, Mr. Zheng?”
He suddenly felt a little emotional, and he finally remembered where the two people were familiar – where else, of course, is in the history textbook!
He showed excitement, and immediately thought that Yu Jingzhi knew both of them, and they seemed to be very familiar, so familiar that he could let anyone who has a big secret like himself come over. Although it seems that Yu Jingzhi did not fully tell them the truth, but more or less revealed. It is absolutely trustworthy to be able to do so.
I thought she would be imprisoned by Yu Jingzhi for the rest of her life, until she died in the city of Haicheng.
Li Lingbi felt that this seemed too
