106 First Sound 10
The sky in Xinyang is also gray, as if it is about to change, and the sky of the whole land of China is about to change. The two pillars of dates in the back garden almost lost their leaves, and the dead branches stretched out to the gloomy and strange sky.
Yuan Shikai's rare good mood came to the back garden of the house occupied by him for a walk, followed by Yang Du, the descendant of the King of the Ghost Valley. Yang Du dragged his oily and slippery braids, and the white long shirt was indescribably romantic and unrestrained. Yuan Shikai is even more amazing. He walks in front of him, as if every move can set off a storm in the world.
The soles of the feet stepped on the dead leaves and made a rustling sound. The feet are full of withered weeds, and the only color is the extremely thin wild **. The fine petals are rustling in the autumn wind, but they are already tenaciously alive. Li Yuan Xinyang is also a little famous, but compared with Yangshouyuan, it is more than one grade worse.
The two came to the pond with only residual lotus left. Yang Duxian said, "After Yuan Gong and Yinchang handed over the seal, they did not immediately go north to Beijing, but went south to Xinyang. The regent must have died in a hurry. Both foreigners and revolutionaries are forcing him. I speculate that the regent will have a decision as soon as today and tomorrow at the latest. You have to do a big job this time."
Yang Du said with confidence, and his political sense made him feel that he was already sure of the current situation.
Yuan Shikai laughed. He also knows the trend of the world well. Yuan Shikai was laughing with confidence, and the telegram from the Qing court had floated over. Yuan Shikai's own soldiers rushed to send a telegram from the Qing Dynasty Committee as the Prime Minister of the Cabinet: "The situation is turbulent. Yuan Shikai is specially appointed as the Prime Minister of the Cabinet, and all personnel are arranged. I hope you can live up to your kindness and come to Beijing to see you on the same day after receiving the call. I'm here!"
Yuan Shikai's smile is even stronger. It's really what he wants to do. That's it! Come to Beijing today! I've been watching the play for so long, and now it's my turn to sing again! Hahaha! Hahaha!"
Yuan Shikai has such a crazy time. He usually gives people the impression of calmness and few words, and there are only a few times when he laughs like this. The last time it was just the imperial minister, and today it is the prime minister of the court.
Yang Du was not too happy for Yuan Shikai. His thoughts had come to a farther place and said, "Mr. Yuan, there are still many things that have not been taken care of here. The time to go to Beijing can still be delayed."
After all, Yuan Shikai is a character, and he immediately put away his complacency. The revolutionary army and foreigners have scared the regent to death, and it's time to show the revolutionaries a little bit and ask them to restrain themselves.
Yang Du looked at the sky with his hands on his hands, made this extremely scratching shape loved by ancient literati, and said leisurely, "Whether we believe it or not, the spirit of the Hubei Revolutionary Army was concentrated on Li Xiang, a person who didn't hear before the Wuchang riot. As long as he can be defeated, it will be difficult for Hubei to have an army against Beiyang.
Yuan Shikai thought about Yang Du's words, and the word "before" bit extremely hard. Feng Guozhang previously sent a telegram asking to pursue Li Xiang. Yuan Shikai refused to take the revolutionary spirit, which was not enough to take away the spirit of the revolution. At that time, Yang Du was also present and did not raise any objection. Now that the old things are mentioned again, what new progress has been made? Yuan Shikai said, "Before, the spirit of the revolution in Hubei was related to Li Xiang. Where is the spirit of the revolution in Hubei now? It seems that it is no longer the two towns of Yangxia, because Hubei is full of revolutions. One city and one place can no longer affect the revolutionary situation in Hubei. Unless there are all three towns in Wuhan, it can deter the arrogance of the Hubei Revolutionary Army.
Yang Du nodded and shook his head again. Yuan Shikai really didn't know what he was thinking for a while. Yang Du put away his distant eyes extending in the gray sky. "Now that there is a revolutionary figure who has influenced China in Wuhan, won't Duke Yuan even forget him?"
"Huang Xing!" Yuan Shikai exclaimed and patted his bare forehead. He really shouldn't have forgotten this person. Recently, I have been busy with the Qing court and foreigners, and Wu Luzhen and Yan Xishan are stirring up trouble in the north, and there is a little carelessness in the south.
Yang Du smiled softly and said, "Although Huang Xing is a scholar, he is naturally not the enemy of President Feng. However, Huang Xing has a position second only to Sun Yat-sen among the revolutionaries, and he is still the most famous in the two lakes and two rivers. As soon as he arrived in Wuhan, he naturally became a high-profile figure in two lakes and even the world. Now President Huang Xing's military affairs in the two lakes, the spirit of revolution has converged on him. As long as you defeat him, you can move the arrogance of the revolutionaries. The influence is greater than defeating Li Xiang, and it can shake the revolution.
Yuan Shikai nodded repeatedly, "Li Xiang has lost power among the revolutionaries because he offended the foreigners, and it is difficult to make a difference. Our combat target is Huang Xing."
With Yuan Shikai's approval, Yang Du shook his head proudly and said, "President Feng also reported that Li Xiang's army is very good at fighting. Thinking about Li, it is naturally much more difficult than Huang Xing. If Li wants to cooperate with Huang Xing, then it will be difficult for President Feng.
"You also said, it's just if." Yuan Shikai laughed and said that this was a victim of such a struggle involving the internal power of the enemy in Hubei.
When it comes to the art of conspiracy, Yang Du's eyes are shining, which is his ability to take care of the family. Of course, Li Xiang will not be willing. I really can't imagine that Li Xiang will have any reason to cooperate with Huang Xing. Again and again, being excluded again and again, no matter how hot the heart is, it will be cold. Li thought that as long as he didn't pull Huang Xing's hind legs, I would give him a thumbs up.
Yuan Shikai sneered, "I only saw that Li wanted to scrape Wuchang away, forced Chinese businessmen to donate money in Hankou, and opened a factory in his own name for personal gain, so I knew that he was an extremely selfish person. Why don't you pull Huang Xing's hind legs? Huang Xing looks beautiful, but Li Xiang is not the only one who slaps his back leg.
Yang Du agreed very much, "Yuan Gong said very well. Just looking at what Li Yuanhong did in Wuchang, he didn't follow his good intentions. Li Yuanhong presided over the military with the scholar Huang Xing, which showed his scheming side. To this end, he held a ceremony, worshipped the generals, and personally taught Huang Xingguan and arrows. In this way, no matter how important Huang Xing is, he is also a general under Li Yuanhong. Li Yuanhong is "Liu Bang" and Huang Xing is "Han Xin". The primary and secondary judgment is divided. The silly Huang Xing arrived in Hanyang with an enthusiastic revolutionary army. Li Xiang, who was good at fighting in the revolutionary army, was completely offended. Without Li Xiang, he was not the opponent of President Feng.
Yang Du said that he paused here, seemed to sort out his thoughts, and continued: "For the revolutionary army, there is still good news. It was the Hunan army that came to reinforce the rescue. Wang Longzhong led the first association of the Hunan army and Gan Xingdian led the second association of the Hunan army to Hanyang to reinforce the aid. In addition to the great increase in military strength, there is frequent news of independence in various provinces. It seems that the revolutionaries are very popular. However, the Xiang army entered Hubei, which did not increase Hubei's troops, but only made Hubei more chaotic. The three military masters of the Wuchang Military Affairs Department, the Sanwu of the Military Affairs Department, the minister Sun Wu, the deputy ministers Jiang Yiwu and Zhang Zhenwu, are very dissatisfied with the reinforcements of the Xiang army. Sun Wu, a native of Hubei, of course, has a grudge against Huang Xing, a native of Hunan. Previously, Hubei was stirred up by Li, a native of Hunan, but now there is another Huangxing. The situation in Hubei is becoming more and more complicated, and there is no fear of scattered sand in Hubei. It's Yan Xishan and Wu Luzhen who are the big troubles.
Yang Du picked up the two, and Yuan Shikai suddenly stepped back and forth in the public house. He frowned and meditated, and Yang Du did not dare to disturb.
The breeze wrinkled a pool of autumn water and woke up Yuan Shikai. He suddenly said to the servant in the distance, "Call Ke Ding."
After a while, Yuan Keding came in full uniform and bowed to his father, saluted Yang Du.
Yuan Shikai asked casually, "Where are you?"
"The telegraph room." Yuan Keding smiled and answered.
Yuan Shikai's beard shook, "How's the matter in Shanxi?"
What did Yuan Keding's old father ask? "Wu Luzhen has entered Shijiazhuang and reported to the court that he has written a letter of comfort to Yan Xishan. The matter in Shanxi has calmed down, and he will go to Beijing for work.
There was a play. Yang Du looked at Yuan Shikai quietly. His eyes narrowed into a slit and said viciously, "Wu Luzhen, you can play Zaifeng and me? It has calmed down. With a letter from you, how can it be so cheap? Humph!"
When Wu Luzhen comforted the mutiny in Luanzhou, the father and son saw his intention and had the idea of assassinating him. Yuan Keding is like his father asking for this errand and guarantorating to do it brightly. Now he has some eyebrows.
Yuan Keding smiled gloomyly, "I have contacted the informant, and you can do it at any time."
Yang Du turned his eyes and said, "If you don't kill him, Yuan Gong won't want Nan'an to enter Beijing safely. But if you want to do it cleanly, you must not give it to others. After all, we need the revolutionaries to have a good relationship. If this matter is exposed, it will affect our peace talks plan.
Yuan Keding was stunned and asked for advice with an open mind, "How can it be considered clean?"
Yuan Shikai also knew Yang Du's intestines and looked at him as well.
Yang Du smiled and said, "Turn around and reveal what we know to Liangbi. Naturally, he can do it quickly and well. After that, it can also make the revolutionaries count all their hatred and resentment on him.
Yuan Shikai asked again, "How is Feng Huafu's battle going?"
Yuan Keding said, "After taking Dawu, Li Xiang, who is making an offensive base in Guangshui, just called to urge supplies!"
Yuan Shikai's face sank and he said dissatisfiedly, "Tell Xu Feng Huafu and tell him not to forget my instructions."
"Yes!" When the son understands the power of the old man. I think he wants Li to fight..."
"Ye-huh!" Yuan Shikai interrupted his son with a straight face. He is both satisfied and dissatisfied with his son: what is satisfied is that he is active in his heart, can see the wind and the rudder, observe his face, and is cruel, and has no women's benevolence; what is not satisfied is that the boy is too floating and has little wisdom. If he wants to inherit his career, he always seems to lack something.
Yuan Keding turned around to go to the telegraph room. Yuan Shikai stopped him again: "You can't talk to Hua Fu too clearly. Just take care of him. Anyway, he can't do it if I don't open my mouth. For specific matters, find someone to test him.
