Chapter 3 Zhang Youqiao

Well, in order to stay on the new book list, the update of seven or eight thousand words per day may be slightly slower.

There is something going on Saturday, and the update is a bit tough. Let's watch the RP...

Let me declare first.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Xu Yifan never expected that it would be so magnificent in Dongjuzi's mansion. He led a large group of people and awesome, under the leadership of the police officer of the governor of the governor, and went straight there.

As soon as I turned to the entrance of the alley, I saw a very large mansion with a note on the Xu Daotai mansion. There was also a small hat in the green at the door, cleaning the dust. When they saw them coming, they all quickly bowed to the thousand-day salutes.

A middle-aged man with a spring breeze on his face came out at the door, smiling and holding his fists. Xu Yifan came out of the carriage, and before he could ask, the man had already handed a note with both hands. When he opened it, he saw the deeds of houses, the deeds of dozens of servants and girls, plus the deeds of the cook gardener, the garment craftsman, the annual deeds of the carriage, the carriageman, were neatly arranged and well.

This is not a temporary mansion, but a private gift from Li Hongzhang! This is used to repay his favor in the capital storm. No wonder he did not give in to any of his official affairs!

But speaking of this, this is really a big deal... I don’t know if it is spent on the public funds again.

The person who came smiled and just looked at Xu Yifan was stunned. Du Juan, who was following Xu Yifan, widened his eyes and stared blankly at the scene of wealth in front of him.

Xu Yifan put away the note, smiled and clasped his fists: "I dare not ask..."

The middle-aged man also smiled: "I am Zhang Youqiao, and the middle hall is the family's mother. This house is arranged by the family's mother, and it is not convenient for the management of the governor's office, so I am waiting here."

Zhang Youqiao...Li Hongzhang's son-in-law... These two words turned a few turns in Xu Yifan's mind before he realized it. This guy is a very famous figure in modern history! The leader of Qingliu in the past few years of Guangxu, his writings and poetry were famous all over the world. He spared no effort to attack Li Hongzhang. A talent who was considered to be in the hope of the world! When the Sino-French war was about to begin, he was sent to Fujian to rectify the naval and land division there. As a result, Zhao Kuo and Ma Su, the Nanyang navy was destroyed, and he turned around and ran away. He finally returned to Xinjiang and finally returned to the capital, but no one liked it. It was Li Hongzhang who took his daughter in and betrothed to him.

Zhang Peilun and Zhang Youqiao, who was the most powerful in the Fengjie at the time, was now standing in front of him with a hearty look on his face.

Xu Yifan's reaction was to shout and bow to the ground: "It turns out to be Mr. Zhang Youqiao! How can you afford to welcome him in person? Isn't this a mess?"

Zhang Peilun smiled kindly, and there was no sign that he had submitted 127 impeachment memorials a year, and he removed countless cool and powerful looks.

His scream was also shocked that Du Juan tilted his head and looked at him curiously. Zhang Peilun looked at Du Juan and smiled like an uncle next door. He nodded in appreciation. He turned to Xu Yifan and smiled: "That little reputation is not a cloud? Zhang has long been a person who has survived the disaster. He has nothing to do and has read Mr. European Youxin Film Record. He has thought a lot..."

He smiled and closed his mouth, and pulled Xu Yifan's hand from all over the world: "Come on, see, what's your house? There is another person who was entrusted by his husband and is now in the house. Zhang is here today, waiting to make friends with his husband. Brother Xu has been in Tianjin for a long time, and he is indispensable to be a villain and often visits..."

Xu Yifan just smiled and nodded, and entered his own industry side by side with him. Zhang Peilun was full of talent. After becoming a military force, he was discouraged and had been hidden in Li Hongzhang's curtain. During the Sino-Japanese War, he and Li Hongzhang proposed to give up North Korea to show weakness, gathered the main force, rely on the Northeast, and then fought again. In Xu Yifan's opinion, it was also a very precise insight at that time. The Gengzi Incident accompanied Li Hongzhang to deal with each other, praising the plan to restrain each other, but Li Hongzhang did not sign a treaty to ced the Northeast to Russia even though he died. His father-in-law was exhausted and he vomited blood and promoted the remaining. After a trial, the talented man in Fengliu was actually unparalleled in the country.

As Li Hongzhang's son-in-law, he just waited to send a house here. In terms of his reputation and status, he was inferior to him from heaven and earth.

He was full of thought, but Zhang Peilun was smiling and didn't say anything, giving him guidance on the layout of the house one by one. Xu Yifan had to let go of his arms and look at his own property.

Damn, it's so big! I remembered the price of buying a house in the imperial capital of the capital over a hundred and ten years later, Xu Yifan burst into tears. His current house now has blue bricks and grinding the walls of Linqing bricks, every grass and tree is very thoughtful. The yard is set up, and one small garden after another. There are servants sweeping everywhere, and there is a faint sound of horses and mules neighing behind them. Seeing that the horse houses were prepared for him, the servants and girls all seemed to be sophisticated, and they all looked like they came over and saluteed. There was nothing unexpected to think of them.

There was also a sound of a hunching voice coming from a side room. Li Hongzhang actually sent a opera troupe!

Xu Yifan has seen these big names who win over people. Unlike Old Man Weng and Guizi Liu, people work hard and can't even give up the Loli twins...

How much money do you have to earn to maintain this property?

The group walked into the inner hall. Zhang Peilun smiled and clapped his hands. Then he saw the curtain of the inner hall lifting up, and two servants who looked like officials walked out with a grown man in a support.

The scars on the face of the grown man had not healed, his expression was open and straight. Although his beard was shaved, his chin and cheeks were still green and thick. It was no one else, but it was Du Qilin, a hero he met in the Suiyuan grassland that day!

Du Juan beside him exclaimed, looking at his father in disbelief. There was a gurgling sound behind him, and Junshen Jiang had already weakened his feet and knelt down. The people in Qilin Village were all excited and could not believe it. What they saw now was real!

Du Qilin's eyes turned, and as if he understood everything as his daughter stood beside Xu Yifan, he hugged Xu Yifan's fists with a sad expression. Du Juan said early, "Dad!" and plunged into Du Qilin's arms.

Zhang Peilun said lightly beside him: "This Mr. Du is from the Zhongtang's writing to come from Rehe. When he took it, his tendons were already picked off... Now he is giving the Bi to Brother Xu, which is considered a little bit of Zhongtang's intention... These two managers are familiar with all the matters and the matters in the house. Please ask the manager brought by Brother Xu to explain to them. I will clap and leave, and come to disturb Mr. Xu again the next day."

Sure enough, Du Juan was crying when he saw his father unable to stand firmly. Du Qilin just touched his daughter's hair calmly.

Xu Yifan glanced at him and quickly turned around to see Zhang Peilun. When he arrived at the door of the inner hall, he couldn't help asking: "Mr. Zhang is waiting here specifically. Could it be that he just wants to see me, Xu?"

Zhang Peilun laughed: "I want to see you, a new national genius, who has stirred up the trend of Beijing. As for how long it takes to see, I hope Brother Xu will not let me down!"

Xu Yifan also laughed loudly. The two of them looked at each other and bowed. Zhang Peilun turned around and left swayingly.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Du Qilin's tendons were indeed picked out.

The brother he defected to, not only betrayed him, but also feared that his skill would not be able to escape, so he destroyed his legs at that time. His reputation for loyalty was inside and outside the mouth, but it ended up being sarcastic.

In the room, Du Qilin was sitting on the chair, Du Juan hugged his legs and cried softly. He lowered and raised his voice. Military commander Jiang pressed the red skin around his waist, gritted his teeth and looked gloomy.

Only Zhang Yu stood up with a calm expression.

To be pitiful, this is all Xu Yifan’s current confidant figure. Zhang Yu’s identity is worth pondering. However, he is not in a hurry to be talented, and he may be a lot soon. The only troublesome thing is how to raise and win over it!

Du Qilin waited for his daughter to cry enough, and looked at Xu Yifan and said in a deep voice: "Mr. Xu, I can't repay my life-saving grace. How do you plan to settle us? When you serve in the army, how many of our brothers died at the hands of this court and stay here to keep you with delicious food. I'm sorry for our conscience."

Xu Yifan raised an eyebrow and remained silent. Du Juan stopped crying. He raised his little face and looked at his desolate father, and then looked at Xu Yifan. His eyes were sorrowful, and he was obviously worried.

Du Qilin pointed at himself: "I won't talk about my life experience. In short, I told Master Guan and the court that he had decided to make the opponent's origin. As for me, Junshi Jiang, you can also ask. It turned out that he was a teacher from Lianzhuang in Rehe, and he also practiced martial arts. The last time in the early years of Guangxu, the Qingliu people inside the wall, said that they would drive all of us Han people out of the hometown of Tartars. Mr. Jiang's eldest family was killed, his wife was ruined, and only a young daughter was starved to death. He was trapped in the mountains to prepare for the winter burning. When he came back, he found that the flag soldiers stationed outside the pass were ruined cleanly, and he stomped his teeth and bit off the grass. If it weren't for me, the dysfunctional leader, he could have endured so long in the pile of officers and soldiers? Mr. Xu, we should have our lives ready, and we would have to work for the emperor!"

It turns out that I was a little unfamiliar with it... But I had been mentally prepared for this... Qingliu people outside the pass until the early years of Guangxu? I didn't notice this back then. It seems that the stubborn and conservative Qing Dynasty, and the territory of the flag-man division of flags and men, was far more powerful than I thought.

Xu Yifan raised another eyebrow.

Du Qilin patted his chest: "The legs are broken, but the Qilin Village's family business is about to be reorganized. I haven't died for a day, and I'm going to work with the thief for one day! Lord Xu, let me explain if you have any instructions."

Du Juan's little face had a stronger resentment. Xu Yifan didn't look at her and said coldly: "Just go back like this? More than a hundred men escaped from death. Do you have the heart to let these brothers accompany you to die? Not to mention your daughter. How old is she? Fifteen or sixteen? I don't know you a big word, and I can't do anything except fight. Does she have friends? Have you ever acted like a spoiled person with you? Do you have the heart to let her die with you?"

How could Du Qilin not know that he was just a dead end when he went back? Look at his daughter, he was raising her in a pampered manner these days, and Xu Yifan was pampered. His little face was watery and his eyes swept over Xu Yifan, and his thoughts could not be hidden.

The hero suddenly became short of breath and murmured, "What should I do?"

Xu Yifan said decisively: "Lu, I have already thought about it for you! Du Juan stays with me and I will take care of him. You have to take away your hundred brothers who are willing to leave. I will continue to support you. I will rarely go against the government and recruit the horse thief outside the mouth of Rehekou for me. In the future, you will know the use of it!"

After a word came out, even Zhang Yu, who was silent, opened his eyes quietly. This man actually wanted to recruit the horse thief and support him with food and equipment. Not to mention where these things are, what is he hiding? It is reasonable to leave Du Juan here as a mortgage.

Xu Yifan thought far away, but they could not have expected it. If he had any strengths, he could use it to the extreme whenever something happened. This was probably born. His previous life gave him no chance to display his talent. In this era, he was like a fish in water. The capital originally wanted to donate officials and take another step. Old Man Weng and the Japanese Liu wanted to use him, but he took this opportunity to push himself to the position in front of him!

Li Hongzhang was neither yin nor yang, and everyone was optimistic about him.

Since these men in the world cannot keep them, it is better to use them to prepare for the future. If you prepare, you may not necessarily use them, but if things come to an end, you will be a powerful chess piece!
