Chapter 077 Revolutionary

Zhou Charter secretly admired that Zhao Han is not only beautiful, but also very insightful. He can see the strangeness of this so-called maritime disaster at a glance. He is really a smart beauty.

"Miss, you can't say this nonsense." Zhou Charter hurriedly reminded. He was afraid that Zhao Han would speak randomly and let the government hear it and cause great trouble.

Zhao Han sneered: "I didn't talk nonsense! This Qing Dynasty, from officials to ordinary people, is timid and afraid of things, and no one dares to come out. If everyone is like this, there will be no hope in this country! I not only have to say, but also write. In the past few days, I have written several articles and published them in the Declaration, which is to question the court how Zhou Charter died!"

After the news of Zhou Charter's death, Zhao Han was not idle. He wrote five articles in a row and published them in the Declaration, pointing out various doubts about Zhou Charter's death. Zhao Han's article has aroused great repercussions at home and abroad, and many people have also begun to question the imperial court. However, there is no evidence, and the question about Zhou Charter's death can only stay at the stage of questioning.

Zhao Han's article made the Empress Dowager Cixi sit on pins and needles. Cixi gritted her teeth with hatred for this ignorant reporter. Zhao Han was a British national, and the government of the Qing Dynasty had no choice but to deal with Zhao Han. However, Empress Dowager Cixi instructed Prime Minister Rong Lu, Minister of State, to protest to the British Minister, demanding that the British authorities intervene in the Declaration and stop publishing articles that slander the Qing Dynasty.

Britain is also unwilling to have a grudge against the Qing Dynasty because of a small reporter. Moreover, the cause of Zhou Charter's death is also a headless public case, and no one has strong evidence. Therefore, the British Concession Authority in Shanghai ordered the Declaration not to publish reports on the cause of death of the Zhou Charter.

Zhao Han was suppressed and his heart was even more angry. And the people of the Qing Dynasty seemed to be indifferent to the death of Zhou Charter, which made Zhao Han even more angry.

"Miss, under the eaves, you can't but bow your head." Zhou Charter advised. Zhao Han is smart and bloody, but he doesn't understand the truth of retreating. If he insists on being so hard, I'm afraid he will suffer a big loss.

Zhao Han was even more angry: "In such a big thing, everyone bowed their heads and avoided. What hope is there in China! Fortunately, there are still many Chinese who have bones! Here in Shanghai, there are Chinese people who are not afraid of death!"

Zhou Charter's heart moved and hurriedly asked, "Miss, is there anyone like you who wants to take the lead for Zhou Charter?"

Zhao Han said, "They are not for Zhou Charter, but for the people of China! They..." Zhao Han suddenly closed her mouth. Obviously, she found that she had said too much: "Well, the country is all of us, including you! As a Chinese, you should also care about national affairs and contribute to the country. If the court is unfair, everyone should shout.

"Miss, I'm just a huangbao driver. It's not my turn to take care of national affairs." Zhou Charter said.

"Stop!"

Zhou Charter stopped: "Miss, I haven't gathered the sages yet."

Zhao Han jumped out of the car, threw a few copper coins to Zhou Charter, and scolded, "I don't associate with the slaves of the Qing Dynasty!" With that, he rushed away.

Zhou Charter looked at Zhao Han's back and couldn't laugh or cry. Zhao Han is very childish. If this is in Britain, there is nothing, but in the Qing Dynasty, this kind of temper will cause trouble.

Zhou Charter couldn't help worrying about Zhao Han.

It was already ten minutes in the evening, and the lights on the street were on, and the crowd was bustling.

Zhou Charter threw the swagon and mixed in the crowd, far behind Zhao Han.

Zhao Han walked all the way and came to the door of the Jijuxian Inn. Jiang Naiwu, the porter, greeted Zhao Han and didn't say much. Zhao Han did not say much. Zhao Han flashed into the inn.

Obviously, Jiang Naiwu knows Zhao Han and is very familiar with him.

Zhou Charter stopped at a lane 50 meters away from the Jixian Inn and hesitated whether he should go back to the inn. Then Zhao Han is in it. If he meets it, it will be inconvenient. But if you don't go back, Yao Xiaofeng will be anxious inside. If you can't help it, it will be troublesome to go to the hospital to see the child.

Zhou Charter decided to wait outside the inn for the time being and wait for Zhao Han to leave the inn before entering. If Yao Xiaofeng left the inn, it would be good to stop her outside.

The calculation has been settled. Zhou Charter squatted under a poplar tree at the entrance of the inn diagonally opposite the inn, staring at the door of the inn.

About an hour passed, and the night was getting darker, and Zhao Han had not been seen to come out.

A voice came from the hall behind him.

Zhou Charter looked back and saw that there was a faint person in the dark lane.

Zhou Charter hurriedly stood up, hid behind the trunk of the poplar tree, and looked into the depths of the lane.

With the street lights on the street, the figures in the hall shook, and there were more than a dozen people faintly inside. Their bodies were shining.

Zhou Charter was shocked. He was too familiar with the shining light of the stars.

That's the reflection of iron in low light!

They carry guns on their backs! If nothing unexpected, it is the most common musket in the Qing army!

Zhou Charter looked back at the door of the inn and noticed that there were also some embarrassing people at the door of the inn.

These people either pretend to be street vendors, polishing shoes and setting up cigarette stalls at the entrance of the inn, or wandering aimlessly on the street doing nothing.

The Jixian Inn is surrounded! These people must be sent by the government!

Zhou Charter's first reaction was that these people came for him and Yao Xiaofeng.

But soon, he rejected this view.

Sand Zhongyong said that Daotai only regarded Yao Xiaofeng as two cultural relics smugglers.

If you want to catch two smugglers, how can there be so many people and live ammunition!

Zhao Han!

They must have gone for Zhao Han! Moreover, Zhao Han once revealed that she has many comrades! These comrades should stand out for the whole Chinese people!"

The so-called to come up for the people is to go against the government! That's rebellion!

The gathering of virtuous inns is the nest of revolutionaries! The boss, Shi Ji, must be a revolutionary!

In the Qing Dynasty, there were two forces competing secretly. A reformist led by Kang. The reform reformists have a great momentum and are widely supported by middle and low-level bureaucrats and people. They advocate resolutely safeguarding imperial power and implementing reform under the framework of the rule of the Qing Dynasty. Although they also have sharp contradictions with the old bureaucrats, they are within the ruling class. Contradictions, and the emperor supports them. Therefore, although old-fashioned bureaucrats hate them, they can tolerate their existence.

And another force is the revolutionaries. They advocated the complete overthrow of imperial power and the expulsion of the rulers of the Qing Dynasty. This force is very weak, but it is tolerable by the imperial court! Even among the people at the bottom, there are few supporters. China has a history of two thousand years of imperial rule. It is difficult for the people to imagine what a society would be like without an emperor. Therefore, the people regard the revolutionaries as fatherless traitors and thieves. The imperial court has always killed all the revolutionaries, and would rather kill 3,000 people by mistake than let go of them!

The court adopted a bloody suppression strategy against the revolutionaries. Once the revolutionaries are arrested, their heads will fall, and even relatives and friends will be connected. The revolutionaries regarded the Qing court eagle dog as a death enemy, and once a Qing court official fell into the hands of the revolutionaries, they could not escape death. The two sides are not compatible and fight against each other.

Zhou Charter has no contact with the revolutionaries, but he came through the 21st century and sympathizes with the ideas of the revolutionaries. What's more, Zhao Han and the revolutionaries are comrades. For Zhao Han's sake, he does not want these revolutionaries to be killed by the government.

Zhou Charter finally saw clearly that the people in the lane were not wearing patrol uniforms, but Qing army uniforms. The number of people was not more than a dozen, but more than 100. They are not patrols, but patrol camps in Shanghai! This is the local military armament of the Qing Dynasty, which is equivalent to the local security area in the 21st century. That is to say, they are the regular army of the Qing Dynasty.

The government is going to catch all the revolutionaries inside!

In this group of Qing soldiers, there was a man who was not wearing a uniform. The man's face was sharp and thin, with violent teeth, wearing a pair of skirts, a felt hat on his head, and leggings under his feet, and was pointing at the inn. It seems that this person is very familiar with the light in the inn and is explaining the situation to the Qing soldiers.

In the lobby where the virtuous gathered, the lights were bright. Through the open door, Jiang Naiwu, the porter, sat behind the counter, looking lazy and unaware of the danger outside the door.

Zhou Charter is anxious. The Qing soldiers were so many that they surrounded the inn, and the people inside were unprepared and bound to be poisoned. Yao Xiaofeng is also in the inn. Once the Qing army starts to fight, Yao Xiaofeng will also follow his bad luck.

Zhou Charter slowly saw a little way.

In this operation of the Qing army, most of the Qing army quietly ambushed in the alleys around the inn, and some people dressed up as various people and put hidden whistles around the inn. These casual clothes are colorful, but there is a white knot on their sleeves as a signal.

It seems that these Qing troops are not very familiar with each other.

Zhou Charter lay behind the poplar tree and looked around. He saw a shoe-shine vendor squatting under a archway more than 50 meters away from the inn. The peddler carried a shoe box and curled up with a white knot on his cuffs, but there was empty around him. The archway is very tall and dark behind it.

Zhou Charter smiled secretly. This guy was timid and afraid of rushing to the front and being shot. He deliberately stayed far away from the inn.

Zhou Charter flashed the poplar tree and slowly walked to the hawker: "Shoeshine."

"Go!" The hawker stared at the inn gate with two eyes and waved impatiently to Zhou Charter. It seemed that this guy was also extremely nervous.

Zhou Charter looked around. Behind the archway, there was a small forest, which was silent. In the distance, those casual clothes in various costumes also stared at the inn, and no one noticed under the archway.
