[Republic of China] The paradise of rebirth

"Xiao Liu, how long have you been by my side?" The owner of the garden was silent for a long time before speaking slowly.

"It's been 15 years." It's been a long time since the owner of the garden called me Xiaoliu, and I was a little dazed when I first heard it.

"Time flies." The garden owner sighed, then stared at me seriously and asked, "Xiao Liu, do you know why I brought you to Tianjin?"

I shook my head. This made me a little puzzled. Why did the owner of the garden take me to Tianjin if he didn't let me go on stage?It stands to reason that I have just recovered from my injuries, and it would be best to stay in Beijing to recuperate.

"I don't worry about leaving you alone in Beijing." The garden owner said in a low voice, and then said angrily: "But I didn't expect that there is Young Master Yuan in Tianjin!"

"Why don't you worry?" I asked, the garden owner raised his eyes and looked at me with complicated expressions. After a long time, he said, "Xiao Liu...I hope you never understand..."

"Do you still remember Mr. Lin two years ago?" The garden owner continued to ask without waiting for my reaction.

"Mr. Lin? The one who sent the post to invite us to attend the meeting?" I was taken aback, and after thinking about it carefully, there seemed to be such a person in my long memory.

"Xiao Liu, tell me, what is a hall meeting?" A trace of sadness flashed deep in the eyes of the owner of the garden.

"Go to the house to sing an opera." I replied nah, actually I don't know why, to put it mildly, it's a performance, but to put it bluntly, it's not just sending it to your door to be ruined by others.

"In our line of business, if we don't have a backer, it's not easy to survive." The owner of the garden suddenly sighed, changed the topic, and then said again: "Qingyi, now you are fifteen years old, and you are also a big brother in the garden. It's time for you to know."

"Please tell the owner."

"The Shuangqing troupe is in my hands, there are no rules, except for one thing, the actors in the Shuangqing troupe don't sing in halls." The owner of the garden looked indifferent, but his eyes flashed with determination.

"The owner of the garden..." He has been behind his back like this, silently trying his best to protect us, but I know that this rule is easy to say, but extremely difficult to implement.

"Perhaps you want to ask, why did I agree to the Church of the Governor's Mansion?" The owner of the garden thought I was thinking about this question.

"Then Yuan Shikai's power is at the height of his power, so don't offend him as a last resort." The garden owner said in a low voice, as if he was very afraid of Yuan Shikai.

I carefully recalled the memories of my previous life. Judging from the time, Yuan Shikai should have started training a new army last year. The original Dingwu Army was incorporated into the Wuwei Army, and then renamed the Standing Army. This year, the Standing Army expanded, and it should have been renamed again.

It is said that the main officers in the army are Yuan Shikai's relatives and friends, or the former Huai Army.This army is also called the Beiyang Army—the Beiyang Army that was split into Beiyang warlords after Yuan Shikai died that day.

No wonder the owner of the garden is extremely jealous of him. Yuan Shikai is not only the governor of Zhili, but also a minister of Beiyang. How can our small troupe refuse such a high-ranking official?

But just now, listening to the owner of the garden, it seems that there is a backer behind the theater troupe?If this is the case, it can also explain why the owner of the garden is able to block out the hall and the dignitaries who come to find trouble on weekdays, so they don't know who is behind the troupe?

But this nobleman was unable to block Yuan Shikai's post, so how did we leave Tianjin safely?According to Xiaodongzi, the Yuan family should detain the garden owner and Xu Fang no matter what, what's more, the entire theater troupe will not be let go.

"Master, Tsing Yi is unclear about something." I couldn't figure out why, so I decided it would be quicker to ask directly.

"What's the matter?" The garden owner was immersed in his own thoughts, as if he was startled by my sudden sound.

"What happened on the day of the birthday party?" I stared straight at the garden owner, observing his expression secretly.

"It's just a conspiracy in the big family." The owner of the garden did not change his expression, and said plainly.

"Why did you let me stay in the small building?" I continued to ask.

"To protect you." The owner of the garden moved a lot of money, saying nothing, so I said again: "Owner, didn't you promise to go back to Beijing to tell me in detail?"

"Tsing Yi, with your ingenuity, are you afraid that you won't be able to figure it out?" The owner of the garden glanced at me and said lightly.

I was choked up and frowned, how could the owner of the garden be so irresponsible, who raised the topic but didn't go into details, leaving me hanging there, it's really uncomfortable.

"In short, you have noble people to help you. This whole matter has nothing to do with you. You don't need to think about it anymore." The owner of the garden just lightly gave me these words in the end, then got up and left.

It wasn't until the owner of the garden walked away that I suddenly remembered, what happened to Xu Fang?The owner of the garden hasn't said why Xu Fang stayed in the Yuan Mansion, why did he just leave like this?

I had no choice but to calm down and carefully scrutinize everything from beginning to end. The owner of the garden took me away and mentioned Mr. Lin two years ago. Could it be that Mr. Lin did not give up?Still want to take me into the house?

Back then, I didn't know much about Mr. Lin. I only vaguely remembered that after he heard my play, he posted posts every day and told the owner of the garden that he would buy my contract of sale and take me back to Lin's mansion.

I don't know how the owner of the garden resolved it afterward. I only know that since a certain day, Mr. Lin has never been seen again. Now that two years have passed, Mr. Lin still remembers a little opera singer?

I heard that there are people behind Mr. Lin. No wonder the owner of the garden is worried about keeping me in Beijing and brings me by his side. Who would have thought that he would provoke someone more troublesome. Now that he is back in Beijing, he doesn't know if he has avoided the trouble.

I also remembered that the owner of the garden said that during this trip to Tianjin, we were involved in the intrigue of the big family. After thinking about it, it should be that Yuan Dashao and the second brother brothers were fighting against each other. I don't know what role Xu Fang played in it?

Why did he stay in Yuan Mansion?As soon as Xu Fang spoke that day, I knew he hadn't slept all night, and when I looked at his words and deeds carefully, I didn't know who Yuan Dashao and Liang Zhongbo had spotted the first flower in the spring breeze?

Now that I think about it, Er Ye probably already knew about Eldest Young Master's plan, otherwise he wouldn't let me avoid the incident. Eldest Young Master clearly said that Er Ye was in collusion with 'Du Qingyi', but Er Ye hid me beforehand. I have never met Du Qingyi, pointed at Xu Fang and said it was me.

At this time, I suddenly had a flash of inspiration. Xu Fang once said that he met Liang Zhongbo on my behalf. Could it be that Xu Fang not only met Liang Zhongbo at that time, but also went to see him in my name?

With Liang Zhongbo pointing it out, and Xu Fang singing Du Liniang for me, no wonder the young master misidentified it. It seems that this time the second master played a masterful game and broke the frame of the young master.

But the second master has never met me, so how does he know that I am Du Qingyi?I remembered that after Yuan's mansion, I was almost confined in the room and was not allowed to move around at will. Could this be what the second master meant?

I'm afraid that the second master communicated with the owner early in the morning, and the owner would hand me over to the second master without saying a word. If there was no exclamation from Liang Zhongbo on the swastika promenade that day, maybe I would not Suffering such a misfortune, but can return to Beijing safely.

After figuring everything out, I secretly hope that this matter will end here. No matter why Xu Fang stayed in the Yuan Mansion, he asked for it himself. owe him.

Letting out a sigh of relief, I stopped thinking about these bad things, and turned to focus on my injuries. The redness and swelling on my cheeks should have subsided, but the injuries on my arms will take three months to heal. I sighed, a while ago Just got out of bed, and now it hurts again.

After waking up in this life until now, I have been spending time recuperating from my injuries. Although it is a bit boring, I would rather suffer these hardships than to do it all over again, and I immediately feel that the injuries are worth it.

At this time, I belatedly remembered that when I was entangled with Liang Zhongbo in the wing room that day, I wondered if the jade pendant was safe or not?At that time, I was struggling so hard that my outer shirt was in a mess, but the inner was still well worn, and the jade pendant was hidden in the inner, so it should be fine.

I rolled my eyes, said 'go in' in my heart, and came to the peach blossom garden again. It seemed that the jade pendant was not affected. I was worried that Xiao Dongzi would come to the wing to look after me, so I went back to the wing right away, but I didn't notice. After leaving, the water level of the small river soared a lot.

Not long after I got back to the bed, Xiao Dongzi came in with a tray, and I slept for three days, when I smelled the aroma of food, I suddenly felt hungry.

"Qingyi, a distinguished guest has come to the garden." Xiaodongzi put down the tray, then approached me, and said mysteriously in a low voice.

"Your honored guest?" I paused. Since the trip to Tianjin, the development of things has deviated a lot from the previous life, and I dare not take the previous memory as the standard.

"Well, I heard the owner of the garden called him the fifth master." Xiao Dongzi replied while making my breakfast.

"Fifth Master?" I was shocked. Could this Fifth Master be the one I thought of?How could that one come to the door?How could the garden owner know him?

"Yes, it seems to be... the Fifth Master Dong, that's right, it is the Fifth Master Dong." Xiao Dongzi confirmed my guess, unexpectedly, the person who came to the door was indeed the Fifth Master Dong—Aixinjue Luo Putong.
