[Republic of China] The paradise of rebirth

In the past ten years, the Chinese government has been turbulent due to disputes between the government and courts, corruption, and the warlords of the Republic of China, and finally split into several major forces: Zhang Zuolin from the Feng family in Northeast, Hebei and Shandong, Wu Peifu from the direct line of Huguang in Henan, and Jiangnan. The new direct lineage is Sun Chuanfang.

Although both Duan Qirui and Xu Shuzheng were eliminated by the second master and the original Zhiwan War was avoided, the two Zhifeng Wars in 1922 and 1924 could not be avoided.

The first Zhifeng war ended with the victory of the Zhili and the defeat of the Fengli. Zhang Zuolin, who was defeated in the war, became the commander-in-chief of the Northeast Security and declared the autonomy of the Northeast.The defeated Wu Peifu took power and forced Xu Shichang to step down; Cao Kun became president in October of the following year by bribery.

Another year later, the Zhili warlords once again triggered the second Zhifeng war. Zhang Zuolin of the Fengshi launched an attack, and Wu Peifu of the Zhili fought. In the end, Fengsheng won and lost; The generals of the department took the opportunity to assassinate him.

Later, Feng Yuxiang launched a coup in Beijing and overthrew Cao Kun. When the second master heard the news of Yuan Keduan's death, he was so angry that he vented his anger on the Feng faction warlord. He asked his subordinates to arrest the general who assassinated Yuan Keduan and tortured him severely. Just give up.

Last year, the Nationalist Government started the Northern Expedition, which will be completed by the end of next year. Zhang Xueliang announced the change of flag in the Northeast; and Zhang Zuolin will be seriously injured by the Japanese Kwantung Army bombing in Huanggutun in June next year. He will pass away immediately after being sent back to Fengtian Mansion.

The second master planned to rescue Zhang Zuolin. Although Yuan Keduan was assassinated by a general of the Feng family, it was not an order from Zhang Zuolin, and in order to avoid the May [-]rd tragedy, Zhang Zuolin was required to contain the Japanese army in Shandong.

Due to the victory of the Feng faction in the second Zhifeng war, Zhang Zuolin controlled the Beiyang government behind the scenes, and later defeated Feng Yuxiang when Feng Yuxiang launched the Beijing coup, and then fully controlled the Beiyang government.

After a while, Zhang Zuolin will take up the post of Grand Marshal in Huairentang, Zhongnanhai, and exercise the power of the President; Sun Chuanfang, Wu Peifu, Yan Xishan and others have a good idea to recommend Zhang Zuolin as the commander-in-chief of the Anguo Army to fight against the National Revolutionary Army led by Chiang Kai-shek. .

The reason why Zhang Zuolin was injured next year was because he thought he was defeated by the National Revolutionary Army and wanted to return to Fengtian Province from Beijing, so he was ambushed at Huanggutun Station.

Er Ye wants to save Zhang Zuolin, he must prevent the Japanese Kwantung Army from planting explosives, so he pays special attention to the movements of the Japanese army; over the past ten years, Er Ye has secretly raised a group of troops, and when necessary, can directly contain the Japanese sent to Shandong army.

However, Zhang Zuolin had been dealing with the Japanese for a long time, so the second master planned to let Zhang Zuolin come forward, unless it was absolutely necessary, the second master did not want to expose his army, so as not to arouse fear from all parties.

Erye used the bronze mirror to go to Beijing, tried a way to enter Zhongnanhai, and met Zhang Zuolin in private. Erye revealed to Zhang Zuolin the idea that the Japanese wanted to prevent the Northern Expedition and planned to cause the May [-]rd tragedy.

Then the two conspired for a long time. When the second master returned to Shanghai, he had a smile on his face. I quickly asked, "Have you talked with Dashuai Zhang?" He is here, and the Japanese can’t please him.”

"It's so good." I let out a sigh of relief, and finally I don't need to touch the second master's private influence; thinking about the past ten years, fortunately, I made a wish to Qianqiu, and the four children are really free from illness and pain grown up.

Time flies, my second master and I have known each other for more than [-] years, and now we are almost [-] years old. Looking back on the past, I always feel like it was yesterday, everything is still vivid in my mind.

Yuan Qi and Xiaodongzi were also together, but I didn't give Xiaodongzi the water from Taoyuan to drink. After all, one more person who knows about Taoyuan is more risky, so the two of them adopted an orphan as a child. son.

Under the secret care of the second master, the rest of Yuan's mansion, although not as prosperous as before, will not be in decline and poverty. However, after ten years, the eldest aunt and third aunt have passed away one after another, and the rest of the mansion is gone. How many.

Second Master's other younger brothers have developed independently, and they have no contact with Second Master. Although Second Master sent someone to secretly protect him, he was only fulfilling his responsibilities and obligations as a brother.

In the past few years, Yuan Keduan has been controlled by my poison, so he can only obey the second master's arrangement calmly. Originally, the second master planned to let Yuan Keduan get away after going to war, but he did not expect that he would die just like that.

For this reason, the second master blamed himself very much. If he could pay more attention, Yuan Keduan would not have been killed. I sighed secretly, and couldn't bear to tell the second master that if it wasn't for Yuan Keduan's dissenting intentions, I wouldn't lead people to kill him. Yuan Keduan.

That's right, Yuan Keduan was assassinated, but I arranged for the assassinated general to get close to Yuan Keduan. How could Yuan Keduan have no people to protect him? It's just that I transferred those people away.

I discovered by accident that Yuan Keduan's behavior was strange.Over the past few years, because of his well-behaved and obedient, the second master has relaxed his vigilance against him. Yuan Keduan seized an opportunity and wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to explode. After all, he had endured the anger for so many years.

When I found out that he was in contact with the Feng faction warlord, I became suspicious. Among the tasks assigned to him by the second master, there was no such thing as cooperating with the Feng faction, so I became interested in him and began to pay close attention to his movements.

It didn't take long for me to find out that he planned to join the Feng family. I was a little puzzled. He still had the poison I fed in his body. How dare he have second thoughts about the second master?

It turned out that there was a military doctor in Feng's department who knew that Yuan Keduan had been poisoned just by meeting him, and confidently said that he could cure the poison.

After detoxification, Yuan Keduan is no longer afraid of the second master, so his mind is active again, but he has learned to be smart, and everything is done in secret. If I didn't have a bronze mirror, I'm afraid he would have kept it from him.

On the one hand, Yuan Keduan continued to curry favor with the second master, but on the other hand, he had established a good relationship with several generals of the Feng family, planning to escape from Beijing and go to Fengtian Province during the Zhifeng war.

However, in the Feng family, some people can't understand Yuan Keduan. After all, Yuan Keduan, as an important figure in the direct lineage, has been pretending to be a tiger for many years and has made many enemies.

I struggled for a long time, intending to give Yuan Keduan a chance. If I find out that he wants to harm the second master, don't blame me for taking his life first.

He really disappointed me. As a result of the test, Yuan Keduan had no sympathy for the second master, so I took advantage of the direct battle to transfer all the people that the second master had arranged for Yuan Keduan to protect him.

The people sent by the Faction to assassinate, as if they were in a land of no one, quickly found Yuan Keduan and slaughtered him. When Yuan Keduan was about to close his eyes, I came to him through the bronze mirror.

When he saw me appearing suddenly, he widened his eyes in astonishment, and I said lightly, "You absolutely shouldn't, you are planning to attack Han Yun, if you just want to escape to Fengtian, it doesn't matter if you spare your life."

"It's just that you have evil intentions. If you really let you escape, I'm afraid that if you turn around, you will let someone deal with Han Yun?" I knelt down and looked at him coldly.

"Monster... monster! You... you are... monster... monster!" Yuan Keduan panted, looking at me in horror, I chuckled, "I am a monster, and I am much better than a wolf-hearted person like you. I have been raising it for so many years. Still not familiar with it, Han Yun's painstaking efforts are in vain!"

"Is your heart made of iron? Even if it is made of iron, you should warm it up after covering it for so many years... But it doesn't matter, Han Yun and I, you ungrateful white-eyed wolf, just obediently disappear."

I looked at Yuan Keduan and closed his eyes unwillingly, and let out a big breath. Although I didn't kill him with my own hands, I caused his death. I closed my eyes, any existence that would hurt the second master, I They are all eradicated!

This matter is in the bottom of my heart. The general who assassinated Yuan Keduan was tortured by the second master, and died not long after, and the person who should be protected by Yuan Keduan was severely reprimanded by the second master. .

However, several main personnel were arranged by me in advance. During the Zhifeng War, I escaped by feigning death, so no one knew that Yuan Keduan's death was caused by me alone.

I don't know if the second master has guessed it, but the second master's attitude towards me has not changed, and he will not bring up this matter again. I tried to say it again and again, but the second master always changed the topic.

As time passed, I didn't think about it anymore, but I didn't expect that this matter would be dug up in the future, stabbed in front of the second master, and dropped a bomb for our stable life.

If I knew that among the few people who escaped by feigning death, some of them had such an unreliable mouth, they would have kept doing nothing and silenced them all; but I couldn't predict it, so I buried such a hidden worry.

Three years after Yuan Keduan's death, just before the Northern Expedition was about to succeed, Second Master and Zhang Zuolin also negotiated in private. Regarding the change of history, Second Master and I have been able to face it calmly. ...

These days the weather is getting hotter and hotter, and soon it will be the day when Zhang Zuolin takes office as the president. The second master and the fifth master went out to discuss business early in the morning. The two sons followed their father, and they have become more stable lately.

I had nothing to do, so I went to the owner's courtyard to make tea and chat with the owner; seeing the owner's ruddy complexion, my work was not in vain; over the past ten years, I have used the medicinal materials and ingredients in the Taoyuan. It is easy to raise the body of the owner of the garden.

Even Yuxie and Xiaoniu's bodies are not as thin as they were when they were young, and I have taken care of them to make them healthier. The owner of the garden and the fifth master know the magic of Taoyuan, and they dare not underestimate the ingredients and medicinal materials I brought out.

Time has proved that the complexion of the owner and the children has improved, and the happiest thing is the Fifth Master. He even expressed his gratitude to me in private, which made me dumbfounded.

While I was chatting and laughing happily with the owner of the garden, Xiao Dongzi suddenly rushed in with an unexpected look on his face. I was a little surprised, "What happened?" Xiao Dongzi said in a muffled voice, "Second Lord, please go."

After I bid farewell to the owner of the garden, I took Xiao Dongzi to go out, and I asked, "Did you say something? Why did you invite me over suddenly?" Xiao Dongzi looked at me with a complicated expression, and I was a little puzzled, "What's wrong? Look at me like that."

"Qingyi, some people say...you have something to do with the death of the second master's younger brother." Xiaodongzi said softly, my heart skipped a beat, and I looked up at Xiaodongzi, "Who said that?"

"Early this morning, someone took a letter and went to Erye's restaurant to ask to see Erye." Xiao Dongzi said nah, I sighed in my heart, it seemed that he was one of those subordinates back then.

"Where is the second master now?" I asked, no matter what I did, I will not shirk or escape, but I am a little dissatisfied with the men who stabbed me in the back.

Back then, I let them escape by feigning death, but I also gave them a lot of money, and they all vowed not to return to Shanghai. Now, after only three years, someone jumped out to testify against me, which really makes me feel a little chilled.

"Second Lord is in the restaurant... Tsing Yi, are you really related to the death of Second Master's younger brother?" Xiaodongzi frowned and looked at me, and I said lightly, "What if I say yes?"

"There must be some reason for you to do this." Xiaodongzi said firmly, and a warm current flowed through my heart. No matter when, Xiaodongzi always believed in me.

"What did Second Master say?" I wanted to ask Second Master's attitude, but Xiao Dongzi was evasive, "Second Master didn't say anything, but just invited you to come over." My heart skipped a beat, and I couldn't help being a little timid.

But I still walked to the restaurant. If the second master really blamed me, I have nothing to say. After all, without knowing the tricks in Yuan Keduan's heart, the whole thing looks like I killed Yuan Keduan for no reason.

When we arrived at the restaurant, Xiaodongzi took me to the wing room on the second floor. Yuan Qi was guarding the door. Seeing my anxious face, before I entered the door, he lowered his voice and said, "Young master, the second master is very angry."

My hand that pushed the door paused, and said softly: "Thank you." Then I pushed open the door without hesitation, and the second master was sitting on the side, except for a woman kneeling in front of the second master, there was no one else in the whole box.

The second master saw me, his livid face softened a bit, but he was still angry, he said coldly to the woman in front of him, "Say what you just said again."

"Young Master Du had ulterior motives and plotted to kill Second Master's younger brother. If Second Master does not drive Young Master Du out of the Yuan Mansion, Second Master's life may be in jeopardy!" The woman burst into tears, crying miserably.

I stood where I was, listening to the woman's cry, saying that her brother was bought by me at the beginning, so he did such a heinous disaster that devastated his conscience. , so go.

In order to expose my viciousness, she came all the way to Shanghai. She was afraid that the second master would not believe her, so she brought her brother's suicide note with her. She only hoped that the second master would not pursue her brother's mistakes.

"Why do you say that my life is in danger?" Second Master asked coldly, and the woman cried with snot and tears, "Second Master Yuan, the person surnamed Du even dared to kill your younger brother, and the next one to be hurt is you !"

I looked at the farce in front of me, and twitched the corners of my mouth. Second Master got up and walked towards me. Can't see through.

"What do you say?" The second master came to me, took my hand, and asked calmly, I settled down, "I have nothing to say, Yuan Keduan...it's true that I killed him."

The second master's eyes flashed, and the strength in my hand was strengthened, "No refutation? No reason?" I shook my head, "I don't like him, that's all."

I don't want to reveal Yuan Keduan's evil intentions and make the second master sad. Besides, the dead are the most important, and Yuan Keduan has already gone. Since he is considered a good brother in the second master's heart, why should I destroy the second master's impression of him? .

"Tsing Yi..." Second Master sighed, looked at me with a complicated expression, then picked up the letterhead on the table and handed it to me, "Just take a look."

I spread out the letter and read it carefully, but my face became more and more ugly. The subordinate slandered me, saying that I used money to force people and sex to lure them, so that they would betray the second master and obey me instead.

Even about Yuan Keduan, I said that I failed to recruit Yuan Keduan, so I killed him in anger to vent my anger. After reading the letter with a livid face, I asked Second Master, "Do you believe these nonsense?"
