Chapter 187 Yangzhou Night(1/2)
(Second update! Please vote for me!)
On Daguan Road leading to the outside of the city, a half-new and half-old Western-style carriage was driving rapidly. Sitting in the car was a man who looked a bit thin, but his appearance showed a bit of elegance.
A handsome, well-dressed man in his thirties. At first glance, you can tell that he is a happy and peaceful person. Although there are some white strands hidden in his black hair, it is added to the natural curls.
A bit scholarly. But if you look carefully, you can see that there is a strange look in his eyes.
"Song Yunzi"
With the name in his mouth, a smile appeared on Tian Ziyun's face. This smile, combined with the weirdness in his eyes, was enough to chill people's hearts. But at this moment, he was the only one in the carriage.
In addition to raising soldiers, Zhang Xun also kept some "Qing guests" around him: they had free meals and spoke with others. Most of these people were old people from the former Qing Dynasty, and Song Yunzi, a Jinshi from Sichuan, was also one of them.
Wearing a long gown all year round, except for secret talks with Zhang Xun, he rarely appears in public and is unknown to most people. However, Tian Ziyun knows that this man is cunning, eloquent, and is the main figure behind Zhang Xun.
.
However, among Zhang Xun's staff and Qingke, Song Yunzi was very interested in getting rid of the name of "Qingke" and became a real staff member. This time Zhang Xun's army went south, and he finally got the things to prepare military supplies. Although in
In the braided army who "recruited food on the spot", this kind of thing was also an idle job, but he did not bargain and agreed immediately. For him, this was an opportunity, an opportunity to do something.
"Isn't this an opportunity?"
With a cold smile, Tian Ziyun understood that if Song Yunzi wanted to do "things", I'm afraid he still wanted to compete with Wan Shengqiu for power. Whether it was staff or Qingqi, there were always priorities.
As soon as he entered the hall, he saw an old man who was over sixty years old and sitting in the front seat. He was slender and thin, with a bunch of goats on his chin and a thin face.
“I’ve met Mr. Yunzi”
Tian Ziyun hurriedly dusted off his spotless suit, stepped forward and bowed deeply to Song Yunzi.
Because Tian Ziyun was wearing a suit, Song Yunzi frowned when she saw him, and then looked at Tian Ziyun up and down. Anyone who knew him well knew that he despised people wearing suits. This person originally wanted to go back
I asked him, but then I reached out my hand and said.
"Mr. Tian, please sit down."
The Mr. Tian in front of me was a "grain merchant" introduced by the Liuhe Office. Although the Wuwei avant-garde army often collects grain on the spot, these grain merchants are indispensable when they are stationed in Yangzhou now. Thinking of this, I gave up the idea of rejecting.
After Tian Ziyun sat down, he opened his mouth and asked.
"I don't know, what is the purpose of Mr. Tian's trip?"
"First of all, it is necessary for business, and secondly..."
When the servant served the tea, Tian Ziyun paused for a moment and took out a check from his pocket.
"Of course it's time to pay a visit to Mr. Yunzi"
As he spoke, Tian Ziyun pushed the check forward.
"I heard that Mr. Yunzi is a master of calligraphy. One of the reasons for this trip is to pay a visit to Mr. Yunzi, and the other is to ask for a calligraphy painting from him."
Song Yunzi just stroked his beard and chuckled, but there was a trace of sarcasm in his narrowed eyes, this man...
"see a visitor out"
Two words came out of his mouth.
"Um?"
Song Yunzi's words only shocked Tian Ziyun, what is going on?
"Mr. Tian, please"
The servant who entered the room stretched out his hand and bowed, saying "please".
"Mr. Yunzi, I..."
Just when he was about to defend himself, Tian Ziyun turned around.
"Hey, that's all. Tian has done his best. Come to think of it...oh...poor Leng Yuqiu didn't listen to others at that time."
"oh"
His sigh made Song Yunzi startled, and she raised her eyes slightly.
"Mr. Mantian, if you have something to say, please speak up."
"I'm just a young junior, so there's nothing to worry about."
Zhang Xun said carelessly, looking at Song Yunzi, he felt funny in his heart, this Song Yunzi is so academic...
“Mr.
When she saw Zhang Xun, Song Yunzi said in a panic.
After getting the news from Tian Zhiyun, he quickly came to the commander's house and told the truth truthfully. He knew that this was an opportunity for him, an opportunity to "change from the Qing Dynasty to the Qing Dynasty". If it was done well.
"Pedant, is this Li Asi that powerful?"
Zhang Xun, who respected Song Yunzi as a "scholar", felt curious when he heard what Song Yunzi said.
"We use both power and virtue to win over people's hearts. The commander-in-chief is more proficient in handling troops than Yunzi, but the iron camp is no match for the white money. Leng Yuqiu's third division asked Li Asi to spend hundreds of thousands of dollars.
After defeating Huang Xing's first division, even the eighth division, and..."
Song Yunzi's face was full of anxiety as he spit out the numbers of the Jiangsu Army one after another. Although he was not even familiar with the Wuwei Qianjun, how could he not know what those Qiu Ba looked like?
"silver?"
These two words only made Zhang Xun startled. Soldiers rely on money to recruit soldiers.
"That's right, it's just money. He doesn't have much next to Li Zhiyuan, but he has a lot of money."
"Um"
Nodding, Zhang Xun did not deny that even Yuan Shikai owed him money from Li Zhiyuan.
"When Li Asi comes to Yangzhou, he doesn't need to bring anything else. He only needs to bring money. I'm afraid..."
Song Yunzi's words made Zhang Xun feel fear in his heart. He thought about it and said.
"It seems that we really have to be careful about Li Ah Si."
After a pause, Zhang Xun raised his eyes again and asked.
"But Li Asi really came to Yangzhou? If it's just a rumor, wouldn't we make a fool of ourselves by arresting a young man with great fanfare?"
"Won't."
Song Yunzi said decisively.
"The commander-in-chief replied to Li Zhiyuan earlier. He felt that he couldn't keep his face, so he sent people to move the troops. Moreover, this matter was a letter sent by someone close to Li Zhiyuan, so Li Asi is going to Yangzhou now."
“Can’t keep it on my face”
With a cold snort, Zhang Xun's eyes flashed with a cold light.
"He Li Zhiyuan is unkind, so don't blame me for being unjust."
After thinking for a moment, he said again.
"It seems that we may have to live in Northern Jiangsu for a long time. We must have a long-term plan. We must be ruthless against those who have different intentions. Otherwise, as you said, what is called a 'bed...'
"How can you allow others to snore under the bed?"
"Yes, that's what it means. I understand."
Zhang Xun nodded and said.
"You have to make an idea. We have to get rid of the root cause. Then Li Zhiyuan needs to put Su Bei aside. We have to find a way."
Although Song Yunzi stayed at home, he had eyes and ears in all directions. He also had a "clever" mind. He would always come up with some "solution" when encountering problems. He blinked and thought for a moment,
said.
"If we rashly send troops to Lianyungang, I'm afraid not only will the president be unjust, but the whole country will also be dissatisfied. According to me, we have to..."
Lowering her voice, Song Yunzi's eyes flashed with a cold light.
"We are going to take this Li A..."
Zhang Xun said directly without waiting for him to finish.
"Send someone to keep an eye on him and kill him if he finds it!"
"no."
"How……"
"It's easy to kill someone, but it's not easy to stop someone's mouth. If it can't be dealt with by then, and it's hard not to get into trouble, you have to find another way. At least kill him in the open."
"What's the alternative?"
Zhang Xun looked at Song Yunzi. He understood these people. These people were masters of killing without using a knife.
"Li Asi wants to kill him, but the key is how to kill him. If he wants to kill this person, he has to make Li Zhiyuan speechless."
"Then we have to find a way."
Zhang Xun frowned, he had done a lot of killing, but killing so many people was so troublesome as Song Yunzi said, just go out and chop them down or pull them out and kill them, it was simple and quick.
After thinking for a moment, Song Yunzi put her fluffy mouth to Zhang Xun's ear, whispered for a while, and smiled faintly.
