[Republic of China] The paradise of rebirth

Under the pretext of recuperating from injuries, my second master and I kept observing in front of the bronze mirror secretly, using Mr. Wan to pass the news, we peeled off the cocoon layer by layer, and got a clear picture of Yuan Keduan's subordinates.

In the end, we also found out the men who betrayed the second master, but we stayed put and only dealt with Daye's people in secret. The nails in Shanghai had to wait until we returned to Shanghai.

I know that the second master still has a little heart for Yuan Keduan, so I didn't tell the second master, and secretly monitored Yuan Keduan; although I didn't know Yuan Keduan's appearance at first, but relying on the person who passed the news, I finally met Yuan Keduan .

Yuan Keduan and the second master looked very much alike, maybe because he didn't like him at first, so he always felt that he had a calculating face, which ruined his good looks like the second master.

Yuan Keduan is not as cautious as Pu Lun, perhaps because of the different environment in which he grew up. Pu Lun and Fifth Master have been exposed to conspiracies and tricks since they were young, and they always retain some distrust of people around them.

Yuan Keduan was different. He didn't get involved in many dirty things when he was a child. When the young master and the second master were still there, there were no things about them, so he grew up safely and smoothly.

But it also makes things easier for me. After much deliberation, I can only choose the method of poisoning. It is impossible for me to kill Yuan Keduan with a knife; Making a big fuss?

We had to let him die in the same way as Pu Lun, but there were too many loopholes around him, unlike Pu Lun's back then, which was watertight, so the poison didn't need to be dosed in batches, and he could be poisoned to death in one go.

It's just that before poisoning, I have to find out what the second master said. If he still wants to keep this younger brother, I can't kill him, but it is still possible to make him sick all his life. In this way, even if he doesn't die, he will die Life.

The second master really didn't intend to kill Yuan Keduan, but apart from the brotherhood, it was also for the sake of the situation, Yuan Keduan was pushed out as a target, if he fell, the direct internal strife would have to be brought to the fore.

The internal strife among the direct lineage will make it easier for the Feng faction and the Northwest Army, not to mention the Japanese eyeing them. Therefore, after two days of consideration, the second master decided to keep Yuan Keduan and continue to contain the direct lineage.

But this time the second master was not soft on his hands. He replaced all of Yuan Keduan's staff with his own people, and let the second master deal with the few traitors who were cheating on others, so that others would not dare to have second thoughts.

All of this is through the use of bronze mirrors, so that we can quickly travel back and forth between Beijing, Shanghai and Daye. People who don’t know it will be scared to death by the appearance of the second master, and even more admire the second master.

After a few days of arrangements, although Yuan Keduan was still alive, I think he probably felt that life would be worse than death. Halfway through the meeting with his subordinates to conspire, the person who planned to assassinate broke into the study with his subordinates and subdued them all.

He also put a chronic poison on him, so that he can only obey from now on, he can't have second thoughts, all the people under him have been dealt with, and all the arrangements fall short... Anyone who goes through all this will be hit hard, right?

The second master didn't care about Yuan Keduan's shock, anyway, he spared his life, it was considered as the best of benevolence, brothers and sisters are really extravagant hopes, before the second master led people into the study, Yuan Keduan was planning to assassinate the second master.

I walked into the study after they subdued Yuan Keduan. Yuan Keduan was surprised when he saw me.

Yuan Keduan was also very smart, and he knew the details after a little thought. He said to the second master mockingly: "No wonder father loves you the most. So you and him have similar interests!"

"Father and son favor the same actor, should I say that your father and son love each other deeply?" Yuan Keduan laughed loudly, and continued to slander the second master and Yuan Kekai.

"Have you said enough?" The second master only said three cold words, and then told Yuan Keduan to shut up. He stared at the second master with a livid face, as if he was very dissatisfied with the momentum of losing to the second master.

"I don't care about what you did before, but what to do in the future, I think you don't need me to teach you because of your intelligence; in addition, if you let me hear any rumors, you don't have to keep your life, you can decide for yourself Weigh!"

The second master waved his hands and left after speaking. I winked at the men holding Yuan Keduan, and they forcefully opened Yuan Keduan's mouth so that I could pour the poison in my hand into his mouth.

"Fourth Brother Yuan, as smart as you are, you should know the truth that misfortune comes from your mouth. Han Yun thinks that you are brothers, so you turn a blind eye to many things..." I patted his cheek and said with a smile .

"But I'm different. I haven't read any books, and it has nothing to do with you, so if you make me unhappy, I'll make you feel bad, isn't it fair?" I changed the subject and said in a cold voice, still He raised the empty bottle in his hand.

"Fourth Brother Yuan, take care of yourself, don't think you can cheat the world, let you succeed before, it's just that Han Yun treats you as a brother and doesn't want to guard against you; if you still have two hearts in the future, you have to be careful to play with your own life."

I warned him coldly, afraid that he would be stupid and still want to attack the second master. It is easy to kill Yuan Keduan, but the hard part is to heal the pain in the second master's heart. Anyone who bears the crime of killing brothers and brothers will not feel good .

As for the think tank next to Yuan Keduan, it was indeed a Japanese. The second master killed him immediately, and all the Japanese that Yuan Keduan had contacted were assassinated by the second master's men.

People in Shanghai were panicked for a while, and the Japanese in the Hongkou area were even more nervous. Recently, many Japanese died violently at home. Anyone with a brain knows that someone is secretly dealing with the Japanese.

As a result, many Japanese are quite peaceful. In fact, although the second master dislikes the Japanese who do business honestly, they will not cause trouble for them. At most, they will make things difficult for them in the business field.

However, if warlords and forces in the army are involved, the second master will not hold back, no matter what your plan is, kill them all to save trouble; the other subordinates sent to Japan finally came back with good news that Hirasuke Yanagawa's head has been obtained .

When the news came back, we were still in Daye, because Yuan Keduan's subordinates were purged, so Mr. Wan was isolated and helpless, and he was punished by the fifth master, so he fled back to Zhejiang in despair.

It was the garden owner's intention to let Mr. Wan go. Although the Wan family was not kind to him, they had raised him for more than ten years anyway, so he didn't want to kill them all. If Mr. Wan doesn't come to provoke us anymore, the grievances between us will be over.

In the next few days, the second master and the fifth master took care of all the business matters, took me, the owner of the garden and the four children, and played Daye all over the place.

This time I stayed in Daye for a few months. Fortunately, with the bronze mirror, the second master can handle the business in Shanghai at the same time. After we returned to Shanghai, the second master and the fifth master became busy again.

Because a few Japanese were assassinated before, the business under their name was left unattended, and it became a sweet pastry that everyone scrambled for. Of course, the second master and the fifth master also wanted to get a share, so when they were in Daye, the second master would Set up.

As soon as they returned to Shanghai, Second Master and Fifth Master hurriedly came forward to deal with them, trying to get all the Japanese business into their pockets, but Second Master refused to touch the tobacco shop and brothel among them, letting others grab them.

The Beijing side also quieted down. Although the Zhili didn't understand why Yuan Keduan had a lot of security, but with him and Li Yuanhong around, the struggle between the Zhili was lurking in the dark and would not erupt.

In addition, the Feng Faction and the Northwest Army, who were waiting for the opportunity, were surprised to find that Yuan Keduan stopped his petty actions and even shook hands with Li Yuanhong in private.

Now it has become a multi-party situation again, no one is good to move first, otherwise people will easily take advantage of the loopholes, so now we have to follow the purpose of not moving the enemy, not moving myself.

Britain and the United States had no objection, but the Japanese were so angry that Yuan Keduan was a manipulative person, but he became elusive overnight, and even the spies they had placed before did not know where to go.

And it was reported one after another that their companions who pretended to be businessmen were all assassinated. This made the Japanese warlords hate it so much that they had no choice but to continue sending people to Shanghai.

However, the second master stopped in Shanghai, and those Japanese with evil intentions, if they come one, the second master will kill one; if they come two, the second master will kill one pair.

The Japanese stopped a lot, but Erye's actions did not stop. After his subordinates successfully assassinated Yanagawa Hirasuke, Erye issued many lists and sent more people to Japan.

Erye not only assassinated the officer who caused the massacre, he also planned to kill the commander and chief of staff of the July [-]th Incident, the fuse of the massacre.

Although this can only treat the symptoms but not the root cause, but in the "Xin Chou Peace Treaty" signed by the Qing court, Japan obtained the privilege of stationing troops in China. Therefore, Japan has stationed troops in Tianjin, Beijing, and Fengtai Town outside the city. .

The Japanese army stationed in China was originally called the Garrison Army of the Qing Dynasty. After the fall of the Qing Dynasty, it was changed to the Garrison Army of China. The commander of the Garrison Army of China seems to be held every two years. The commander at the time of the July [-]th Incident is still in Japan.

Regardless of whether assassinating the commander and chief of staff can change history, the second master doesn't want to sit still; Qianqiu said that we can't make a wish to change a big event, so we have to do it ourselves and kill one by one slowly.

Now there is only one wish left, and the second master and I have worked it out together, trying to use the wish in the most appropriate place. The second master still hopes that we can avoid that catastrophe.

Time seems to be peaceful, but the dark tide is turbulent in private, slipping by quickly, and ten cold winters have passed in a blink of an eye, and the past ten years have been full of ups and downs along the way.

In 1919, due to the Paris Peace Conference at the end of the First World War, workers, students and people from all walks of life in Shanghai held general strikes, school strikes and city strikes; and from June [-] of that year, the center of the May Fourth Movement was also established Beijing moved to Shanghai.

Whether it was the May [-]th Movement or the strike in Shanghai, it was all because of the Paris Peace Conference, when the foreign powers wantonly trampled on China's sovereignty and transferred Germany's rights and interests in Shandong to Japan.

Fortunately, the second master got rid of Duan Qirui, so the Beiyang government, unlike the previous life, borrowed a lot of money from Japan under Duan Qirui's control, so there was no exchange of letters on the Shandong issue.

It's just that the rights and interests of Shandong fell into the hands of the Japanese in the end. When the news of the Paris Peace Conference came back, the second master was very angry, but he couldn't change the current situation.

In the next few years, the Japanese side sent back news one after another that the officers on the second master's list were all secretly monitored, and they could be successfully assassinated whenever they had the opportunity.

The May 1925th massacre two years ago made Erye even hate the Japanese even more—on May [-], [-], workers in Qingdao, Shanghai and other places marched to protest against the illegal dismissal and beating of workers in Japanese cotton mills, but Shots were fired and bloodshed ensued.

After the May [-]th massacre, Erye quickly took action against the Japanese businessman "Neiwai Cotton Co., Ltd." in Shanghai. It didn't take long for all the Japanese administrators in the factory to be eliminated, and the management rights were also transferred to Erye.

Erye immediately changed the name of the company after he acquired Neiwai Cotton Co., Ltd. In addition, Erye also sent people to Qingdao.

Due to the collusion between the Japanese government and the Shandong and Qingdao warlord authorities, when the incident happened, the second master failed to get the correct information immediately, which led to bloody conflicts.

After the matter was resolved, the second master had a gloomy face, and secretly dealt with the generals who colluded with the Japanese in Shandong, Qingdao, and the British arrester who ordered to shoot at the crowd was also pressured by the second master and sent back to the UK .

After the tragedy, the Shanghai Federation of Trade Unions was established quickly. It didn’t take long for the whole of China to respond and resist foreign forces in China, especially for the British and Japanese countries involved in the incident. There were bloody conflicts everywhere because of the exclusion of British and Japanese.

However, due to the suppression of the Fengtian warlords, the Shanghai Federation of Trade Unions and the Federation of Industry and Commerce were closed down, and labor leaders such as Li Lisan and Liu Hua were also wanted.In mid-August, workers from all over the country stopped striking, and the strike situation gradually subsided.

Some time ago, the national government established its capital in Nanjing, and also set up a special city in Shanghai outside the concession. Due to its close proximity to the capital, Nanjing, and the fact that Shanghai has always been a foreign trade center, a large number of financial institutions set their headquarters in Shanghai.

According to the memory of the previous life, the next ten years will be the so-called ten years of Nanjing, which can also be said to be the golden ten years of the national government; due to the stability of Shanghai's national economic and financial center, no matter whether it is the concession or the Chinese world, it will be the golden decade in the following golden ten years. developed rapidly.

Ten years later, the Songhu meeting station broke out, and the all-out war of resistance began. China and Japan would fight fiercely in Shanghai for three months, and Shanghai fell as a result.After the war, the Chinese community was basically reduced to a slum area, and the northern part of the Shanghai International Concession was reduced to a Japanese defense zone.

The Central District, Western District and French Concession of the Public Settlement were unable to enter by the Japanese army, so they were surrounded by occupied areas on all sides, resulting in an isolated island period of deformed prosperity that lasted for more than four years.

In the past ten years, only half of the Japanese officers on the second master's list have been assassinated. In the next ten years, I hope to assassinate all the Japanese officers in the previous life.

Regardless of whether the assassination of those officers can change history, at least we have tried our best to prevent the ensuing massacre. Thinking that there are only ten years left, I feel a little worried.

In addition, in the past ten years, the sons have also known about the existence of Taoyuan, but apart from me and the second master, the sons have no way to freely enter and leave the Taoyuan; apart from the sons, the fifth master and the owner of the garden also know about the Taoyuan, but they have no details. ask.

The eldest son, Jia Gu, is seventeen this year, and the second master began to take him with him to learn how to run a business. The youngest son, Jia Zhang, is two years younger than his elder brother, and the second master left him to Yuan Qi.

Wu Ye’s eldest son, Yu Yu, was the same age as Jia Gu, and started to follow Wu Ye. His daughter was younger than Jia Zhang, and she was cared for since she was a child. It's better than that.

The owner of the garden has a lot of headaches for this little daughter, but the fifth master thinks that the Aixinjueluo family has the aura of being a woman. I have to say that the fifth master is still very proud of his blood.

Even in the last 40 years of the Qing Dynasty, the government was in the hands of the Empress Dowager Cixi, but the Qing Dynasty still had the so-called Kangqian prosperity. Every time the fifth master talked about his ancestors, he could always talk about it for five days and five nights.

A few radish heads, when they were young, they worshiped the fifth master very much, especially the youngest son Jiazhang, who talked about "uncle fifth master" all day long, which made the second master jealous a lot.

When they grew up and read the history of the Qing Dynasty, the children always had pity in their eyes every time they saw the fifth master, which made the fifth master very suffocated. Poor little devil.
