"Oops, sorry ......"

Chen Miao deliberately found an angle, and with a slight turn of his arm on Tao Yuan's biblical route, at least half of a glass of red wine was sprinkled on Tao Yuansheng's placket.

Chen Miao hurriedly took out a handkerchief to help him wipe it, and kept apologizing while wiping it.

"It's okay, it's okay, it's also that I didn't pay attention......" Tao Yuansheng didn't think that this was Chen Miao's deliberate doing, just a small accident.

On the banquet, it is normal for some small situations to occur, Tao Yuansheng, as an old man who often participates in various social activities, is naturally clear.

What's more, judging from the other party's clothing, he should also be one of the guests tonight, looking at it with some faces, he is a well-educated scholar and university professor, how can he be too harsh on other people's unintentional mistakes, not to mention that he himself was a little distracted just now.

"Minister Tao?" Chen Miao pretended to raise his head suddenly, saw Tao Yuansheng's face, and exclaimed.

"Know me?" Tao Yuansheng was also surprised, although he was not unforgettable, but if he knew him, he would definitely have an impression.

Why didn't he have any impression of the person in front of him?

"Under Chen Miao, Minister Tao, do you remember?" Chen Miao hurriedly introduced herself, "When you signed in for the six conferences, I was the one who received you. ”

"Chen Miao......" Tao Yuansheng recalled, and he was a little impressed, but he was just looking at signing in at the time, and there were a few people around him talking to him, as for what the person in charge of signing in looked like, he really didn't pay attention.

"Inspector No. 76."

"Oh, it turns out that you are Minister Ding's subordinate." Tao Yuansheng nodded, in addition to being the director of No. 76, Ding Mohan is also the head of the Central Social Department of the Wang family, and Tao is the Minister of Propaganda, so they are naturally familiar with each other.

"This red wine stain is difficult to clean, Minister Tao, I'm really sorry, I'll give you a piece of clothing when I go back." Chen Miao said earnestly.

"No, it's just a piece of clothing, it's not worth a few dollars, besides, wash it, you can still wear it." Tao Yuansheng said busily.

"That's not good, Minister Tao, you must give Sanshui a chance to apologize." Chen Miao said, "Otherwise, I won't be at ease." ”

"I really don't need to, what's Chen?"

"Chen Miao, it's okay if you call me Chen Sanshui."

"The word Miao is three waters, and the name Mr. Chen has been obtained." Tao Yuansheng said with a smile.

"The year I was born, there happened to be a great drought, and the fortune teller said that I was prosperous and there was a shortage of water in my life, and if I couldn't reconcile, it must be an early death, so my father gave me such a name." Chen Miao explained with a smile.

Tao Yuansheng couldn't help but stroke his palms and laughed, although this Chen Miao was doing spy work, his words were very funny, but he was a little different from those spies with evil faces.

At least he didn't want to say a word to Ding Mohan's crab shell face, feeling that kind of person had a rotten smell all over his body.

Tao Yuansheng was a scholar in the past, and these scholars have some common problems, or stinky problems, that is, they will be scolded when they disagree, and many people have been scolded by him in the past.

Therefore, his relationship with many people in the Wang Group is not very good, which is why he does not have Zhou Fuhai and Mei Siping to live together.

During the work period, they quarreled non-stop, and if they lived together, it would be even more unstoppable, and his family had a large population, and one would occupy a western-style building, and others would inevitably be a little unhappy.

What's more, he already has a residence in Shanghai, so he simply lives in his own house in the French Concession and is quieter.

came and went, Chen Miao relied on his superb conversation skills to chat with Tao Yuansheng very closely, and Tao Yuansheng also wanted to find someone to talk to.

Although this Chen Miao is not the best person to talk to, it can be seen that he is obviously different from those turtles who can only hold knives and guns.

Of course, Min. He won't talk about the topic of feeling, after all, the other party is the number 76 person.

In fact, Tao Yuansheng had just persuaded Wang to stop signing the secret agreement on peace talks, even if it was to avoid going abroad, it would be better than becoming a traitor and a sinner through the ages.

But Wang has clearly been in power and lust. With the domination of hope, coupled with the instigation of Chen Bijun and others, he can no longer listen to these golden and jade words.

Therefore, tonight's welcome No. 2 person Chen Zhibo arrived, and he, the propaganda minister, the head of the pen, was actually left aside.

On the contrary, Vice Chief Hu, who followed in Wang's footsteps and waved his flag and shouted, was in that core circle at the moment, staggered and red.

Tao Yuansheng's heart is quite lost, so it is also extremely good to have someone to talk to him now.

Chen Miao was observant, but he didn't know what Tao Yuansheng was thinking at this moment, but he could see that there seemed to be a layer of deep and indissoluble sorrow between Tao Yuansheng's eyebrows.

This literati and scholar are not very good at disguise, and whatever he thinks in his heart is shown on his face.

"Tao Gong, why don't we go over there and sit down and have a drink?" Chen Miao invited tentatively.

"Okay." Tao Yuansheng nodded.

The two of them joined hands and found two places in a corner of the large living room and sat down: "Tao Gong, what do you think of the current war situation in Europe?" ”

"Europe, His Majesty the ambitious Führer of Germany, I am afraid that he will not be satisfied with the status quo, and next, an unprecedented war will inevitably break out in Europe, and this war is bound to have a huge impact on the East, but it is difficult to say what this impact will be." Tao Yuansheng was pessimistic.

"Germany is now in full swing, but I think that on the ground battlefield, the whole of Europe combined is not the opponent of the German army, including Soviet Russia." Chen Miao asked tentatively.

"Yes, the strength of the German army is hopeless." Tao Yuansheng sighed, "And the Japanese army established by comparing with the German army, although it is not as strong as the German army, it is far more powerful than us, in Asia, I am afraid that there is no army that can compete with it." ”

"I heard that the Japanese side intends to hold secret peace talks with Chongqing?"

"What, who did you listen to?" Tao Yuansheng's eyes widened, and he asked nervously.

"I'm also hearsay, and I don't have any definite news." Chen Miao smiled.

"What are you doing in the Inspectorate?"

"I'm just a dozen."

"Miscellaneous people, I don't believe it, you are a miscellaneous person, you can attend such a high-level private banquet tonight, and all the people who can come here tonight are senior government officials and celebrities." Tao Yuansheng said that he was not stupid enough to that extent, although he didn't know how the inside of No. 76 worked, maybe if he came in and could move freely, it must be a senior cadre of No. 76, and he couldn't help but be vigilant.

Fortunately, what they talked about just now was either someone else's family or a digression, and they didn't talk about domestic affairs.

"Tao Gong, I'm really a miscellaneous person, if you don't believe it, you can ask our Director Lin, tonight I am qualified to participate in such a banquet by his light." Chen Miao smiled and cleverly said that he was the identity of the Lin family.

"Brother Tao, I'm looking for you everywhere, but you're hiding here." Gao Zongwu followed the voice and came over, and as soon as he came to his side, he complained.

"Brother Gao, Mr. Wang can't listen to my opinion for a long time, what should I do with that excitement again?" Tao Yuansheng was still a bookseller in the end, and complained in front of Chen Miao.

Later, I found out that there was still Chen Miao, an outsider, present, and his face changed slightly, he couldn't say this in front of Chen Miao, the No. 76 agent.

If this is transmitted to Wang's ears, it will be nothing, but his wife Chen Bijun is not easy to get along with.

Disaster may well be on the horizon.

"Hehe, you are Minister Gao, in Xia Chen Miao, serving in the Inspectorate of the Special Service Committee's Secret Service Headquarters." Chen Miao stood up, smiled slightly, and introduced herself.

Gao Zongwu was not so easy to approach, this opportunity actually came to the door by himself, he naturally couldn't let it go, even if it was a familiar face.

"Chen Miao, this name sounds familiar?" Gao Zongwu nodded slightly.

"I'm just an errand runner, and Minister Gao has actually heard that Sanshui is really fortunate to have three lives." Chen Miao said enthusiastically.

"Sanshui?" Gao Zongwu reacted very quickly, and immediately nodded in agreement, "Hello." ”

"Brother Chen, don't accompany me, I have something to do with Brother Tao." Gao Zongwu hurriedly pulled Tao Yuansheng away, in fact, Chen Miao and Tao Yuansheng sat down to talk, and it was only about ten minutes.

Chen Miao's purpose has been achieved.

Next, he found a corner by himself, sat there, listened to the music, and sipped the wine, and the drinks and dishes at the buffet dinner tonight were still good.

Beef from Kobe, Japan, tropical fruits from the South Seas, champagne, fine wine, and of course, light and tasteless sake.

Chen Miao doesn't like sake very much, it's no different from drinking plain water.

Such an occasion is indispensable for beauties, but today is a private banquet, and for safety reasons, it is already an extra care to be able to allow the wives to attend.

Of course, there is also Mrs. Wang's sake.

If the wives were not allowed to attend, it would be a little embarrassing for her to be alone in a bunch of men, not to mention, Chen Bijun also hoped to use this opportunity to increase her prestige in the "lady" group.

How powerful is the wind on this woman's pillow, how can Chen Bijun, who is a woman, not understand.

Chen Miao's level is relatively low, and he doesn't know much, and he doesn't want to deliberately know anyone, so as not to be thought by Lin Shiqun that he has other ideas.

……

"Brother Tao, why did you get involved with this kind of person?" Gao Zongwu pulled Tao Yuansheng aside and asked eagerly and complainingly.

"I was a little distracted when I was walking just now, and I accidentally spilled his wine glass, and I just knew, you see, I still have red wine stains on my placket?" Tao Yuansheng pointed to his cotton robe and said.

Gao Zongwu was surprised: "Didn't he take the initiative to talk to you and get to know him?" ”

"Of course not, he also said that he would pay me a new dress, and I refused." Tao Yuansheng said, "We just chatted for a few words, this person is not as vulgar as Wu Yunfu, and he has a lot of knowledge." ”

"Brother Tao, don't you know, this guy is a ruthless character." After all, Gao Zongwu was engaged in diplomacy in the past, and he was also quite sensitive to intelligence, not to mention that in this special critical period, his nerves were tense all the time.

"Ah......h

"He also told me just now that he is a miscellaneous ...... beside Lin Shiqun" After listening to Gao Zongwu's brief introduction, Tao Yuansheng was surprised.

"Although this Chen Sanshui is not notorious to the outside world, he is the most vicious dog around Lin Shiqun now, Brother Tao, the No. 76 Inspectorate is internal, you have to be careful, if you are targeted by this person, then you will be in trouble." Gao Zongwu admonished.

"So what now?"

"Keep your distance and don't have any more contact with him." Gao Zongwu reminded, "Let's go, Mr. Wang asked about you just now, and when I saw that you were not there, I was still a little unhappy, but today Mr. Zhibo came, and the peace force has increased again, which is a happy event." ”

Tao Yuansheng only agreed.

……

"Sanshui, I saw that you and Tao Yuansheng had a good conversation just now, did you two know each other before?" Ye Yurulian walked into Chen Miao with a glass of champagne in her hand.

"I don't know, just now I spilled half a glass of red wine on someone's clothes, and I'm apologizing." Chen Miao hurriedly bowed and explained.

"Oh, this Tao Yuansheng has always had a bad temper, especially looking down on us No. 76, why is he so polite to you?"

"He didn't know my identity at first, but later he probably felt that if he turned his face again, it would make people think that he was not open and bright enough." Chen Miao smiled.

"I heard from Shiqun that this old gentleman has been persuading Mr. Wang not to sign a peace agreement with Japan recently, which has made Mr. Wang very unhappy." Ye Yuru whispered.

"I really don't know, sister-in-law, why don't you go with Mrs. Wang?"

"People don't look down on the world for doing the kind of work that doesn't see people, and by the way, they don't look down on me." Ye Yuru laughed self-deprecatingly.

Chen Bijun's family background and status, it is normal to look down on Ye Yuru, not to mention that Lin Shiqun is a spy leader, to put it bluntly, he does dirty work.

What's more, with her identity as Mrs. Wang, there is no need to put down her body to cater to others.

"Sister-in-law, in fact, you can't be angry, she looks down on us, and our days have been taken care of, with the director's status today, what else can she do to you?" Chen Miao followed Ye Yuru's words.

"That's right, Shiqun can't leave yet, otherwise, you can go back with me first?" Ye Yuru glanced at Lin Shiqun, who was pushing the cup and changing the lamp.

"Okay, there are so many high-ranking officials and nobles, I'm also uncomfortable, if it weren't for the director's insistence on me coming, I really didn't want to come." Chen Miao directly put down the wine glass and said.

"Sanshui, you still can talk, I also feel depressed, let's go, let's go back." Ye Yuru also put down the wine glass in her hand, walked through the living room with Chen Miao, and left the Wang Mansion.

"Sanshui, go to my sister-in-law for a cup of tea and eat something, this night, you're just afraid that you won't be full, right?" Ye Yuru smiled.

"That is, this kind of dinner party, pure is torture, this thing is delicious, but I don't dare to eat more, this is just my own person, I can't lose our director and sister-in-law." Chen Miao said, "I drank a stomach full of wine, and I was embarrassed to ask if I wanted to go to the toilet just now." ”

"Giggle......" Out of the Wang Mansion, Ye Yuru naturally didn't need to make up for it, and smiled and said, "Don't look at you always being serious, this talk is so funny." ”

"I have to hold it in front of the people below, otherwise, they will not obey me, in front of you, sister-in-law, then there is no need for this."

"Yes, my own family, it's not necessary."

"Shiqun said, I specially invited Mr. Zhibo once that day, Mr. Zhibo is a person who likes to be elegant, especially likes Suzhou Pingdan, so, you understand what your sister-in-law means, right?" Ye Yuru walked to the steps of her small western-style building and stopped.

Chen Miao chuckled in her heart, although this Chen Zhibo is known as a "humble gentleman", it is not about his style. There are not a lot of rhymes, this literati style. Flow, not ashamed, but proud, he is very despised.

Lin Shiqun himself was embarrassed to speak, but let Ye Yuru tell him, which could be regarded as caring for his face.

"I really can't be the master of this matter, you know, Xueqin's temperament is fierce, if she doesn't agree, I can't help it." Chen Miao said slowly.

"Don't worry, just sing two little songs to help the fun, and it won't make you embarrassed." Ye Yuru said.

"That alone can't do it?" Chen Miao knew that they were all people with heads and faces, and some things still couldn't be done, otherwise it would be a scandal.

Of course, Chen Miao would never allow this kind of thing to happen.

"Isn't that still you?"

Chen Miao was stunned for a moment, if it was friends who entertained themselves, it would be fine, but if he wanted to play and sing directly on stage, it would be insulting.

Lin Shiqun is using him and Liang Xueqin as a tool to befriend Chen Zhibo.
