Chapter 171: Acting

Yuan Shikai's henchman Hu Jingyi arranged in Sichuan is here!

In September last year, Yuan Shikai recalled Zhang Peijue, the chief of civil affairs of Sichuan, to Yanjing, and Hu Jingyi concurrently served as the chief of civil affairs.

And the rebellion in Tibetan Province occurred, Sichuan Governor Yin Changheng made the biggest mistake in order to grab war achievements, prestige, and territory, and when the situation in Sichuan was not stable, he obeyed the command of Yuan Shikai and personally led the troops to the battle, and at the same time Hu Jingyi took care of the Sichuan Governor!

With this care, Yin Changheng will never be able to return to his position!

Hu Jingyi was not ready to return this position to Yin Changheng at all.

But it is not so easy to sit firmly in the position of governor of Sichuan, and in Sichuan, it is not enough to have the support of President Yuan.

Wang Hengyue, a person with increasing prestige in Sichuan, aroused Hu Jingyi's vigilance enough.

Especially after Wang Hengyue forcibly seized Ya'an under the banner of "eradicating the last living soil of the Manchu Qing Dynasty in Sichuan" and stationed it with a whole regiment, Hu Jingyi's vigilance became even heavier.

Who is Wang Hengyue? Is he loyal to President Yuan Dae, or is he loyal to Yoon Changheng? Or is he only true to himself?

With a stomach full of questions, Hu Jingyi, who personally lowered his identity and came to Rong County, met Wang Hengyue.

But Wang Hengyue in front of him surprised him.

Wang Hengyue was lying on the bed, his face was pale and his lips were purple. It looked like it was covered with three or four quilts, but it seemed to be shivering there. There was a spittoon next to the bed, and there were faint traces of blood in it.

Such Wang Hengyue, where is there still a little bit of heroic demeanor?

"Why did the Guardian come in person?" As soon as he saw Hu Jingyi, Wang Hengyue seemed to be taken aback, and then he was furious: "Someone, someone!" ”

"My lord, what's the matter?"

"Bastard, why didn't anyone report to me when the Protector came?"

"My lord, it's the Governor who won't let us say it."

"Tell me, don't blame the people, I told them not to say it." Hu Jingyi said affectionately, and then asked his subordinates to go out: "I came to see you on purpose, and at the same time brought President Yuan's commendation." ”

"Ahh The President's Commendation? ”

When Wang Hengyue heard this, he hurriedly shouted again: "Quick, bring my military uniform!" ”

Hu Jingyi asked him to listen on the bed, but Wang Hengyue insisted on refusing and had to get up. With the help of the three subordinates, Wang Hengyue trembled and barely put on his military uniform.

Hu Jingyi was helpless, and roughly read the telegram, which was nothing more than a reward for Wang Hengyue's military exploits, and rewarded Wang Hengyue with 20,000 taels of silver.

"Wang Hengyue, President Xie! Swear to defend the Republic of China and defend the president! Wang Hengyue's "horn" salute.

Who would have thought that maybe it was because the time was long, or maybe it was the strength that made it bigger, Wang Hengyue's body shook and fell on the bed, and when the subordinates hurriedly helped him up, Wang Hengyue covered his mouth with his hand, and a trace of blood clearly flowed out of his fingers.

"Oh, Shuzhi, Shuzhi, let you lie down, you have to get up, how can you get this, how can you get this!" Hu Jingyi looked anxious: "What about the doctor?" What about doctors? Hurry up and get a doctor! ”

said, and said bitterly: "I heard that for the sake of the country, I worked hard, went to Tibet, became ill from hard work, and vomited blood without entering Rong County, who would have thought that the condition would be so serious!" ”

"It's okay, it's okay!" Wang Hengyue waved his hand, but it was the blood of one hand, and he quickly put it on the quilt and wiped it, for fear of being seen by Hu Jingyi: "Wang Hengyue is just tired, and it is naturally good to rest for a while!" ”

At this time, Ma Yunxin's angry voice came from outside: "You white-eyed wolves, you have raised you for all these times, and when you see that adults are sick, are you lazy one by one?" I'm telling you, the adults aren't dead yet! Even if you die, this house is still my decision! ”

As he spoke, the door was kicked open with a "bang", and Ma Yunxin walked in with an angry face: "Shuzhi, how long have you been sick, and these useless dogs have been lazy!" ”

"Bastard, shrew! Didn't see the Governor here! Wang Hengyue scolded, then coughed hard, covered his mouth, and spit out a mouthful of blood.

Ma Yunxin was stunned for a moment, and then cried loudly: "Lord Protector, you have to make decisions for us!" In case he is leaving, I am a woman's family, so what can I do! ”

"Madame, don't be in a hurry, don't be in a hurry." Hu Jingyi comforted repeatedly: "The auspicious people who are described will be fine." ”

Ma Yunxin cried even more: "Why is it okay?" The Western doctor said, "My lord."

"Get out!" Wang Hengyue grabbed a pillow angrily and threw it over: "Lao Tzu has no problem living for another hundred years!" ”

Ma Yunxin walked out crying, Hu Jingyi was about to comfort a few words, but saw Wang Hengyue holding his stomach, only saying that he was in a hurry, and asked Hu Jingyi to wait for a while. As he spoke, he was helped by his subordinates and moved to another room.

That's half an hour. I saw a subordinate come out with a commode and quietly called his companion who accompanied Hu Jingyi: "My lord has blood in his stool again today." ”

"How many times is it today? Eighth or ninth? ”

Although the voice was low, it reached Hu Jingyi's ears word for word.

At this time, Wang Hengyue came out with the support of his subordinates, but before he could sit down, he stood up tremblingly again, and he didn't say hello this time, so he turned into the toilet with trembling steps.

It was easy to wait for him to come out again, Hu Jingyi hurriedly got up and said: "Shuzhi, there is still something to do in Chengdu, so I will leave first, Shuzhi must take care of your health." ”

"Don't send it, don't send it, wait until I'm well and then go to Chengdu to meet the Governor, it's rude today, ouch, help me in again"

Hu Jingyi walked in with a heavy pace, but when he went out, his pace was brisk. As soon as he walked out, he saw his henchman Deng Gengen waiting outside for a long time, and hurriedly asked in a low voice, "How is it?" ”

"Back to the Governor, Wang Hengyue's body collapsed when he came back from Tibetan Province, Chinese medicine and Western medicine invited a lot, and he also went to interrogate him, and everyone said that Wang Hengyue no longer allowed doctors to enter the house half a step since he saw the first Western doctor!"

"Wang Hengyue's life is not long in coming!" Hu Jingyi's face couldn't be suppressed with joy: "He is not hiding from the doctor, but he is worried that after his illness is known to outsiders, his rights will be unstable, so he tried his best to show his body in front of me, but his illness betrayed him!" ”

"What's the matter, Wang Hengyue is really not good?"

Hu Jingyi nodded: "He vomited blood in a big gulp, and he went to the thatched house more than ten times in one day, and there was blood in his stool, these are all bad signs." There is chaos in the house again, and I don't think he will survive until the end of this year! ”

"Okay, as long as Wang Hengyue dies, we can easily take over his territory!"

Hu Jingyi smiled coldly: "After returning to Chengdu, send someone to send some supplements to Wang Hengyue." ”

"What do you mean?"

"Wang Hengyue buys people's hearts with fake benevolence and false righteousness, won't we? By the way, send a telegram to President Yuan and tell the president about Wang Hengyue's situation, so that the president can rest assured. ”

"Yes!"

"It's done, everyone is gone, don't pretend."

Ma Yunxin pursed her lips and walked in with a smile, stabbed Wang Hengyue, who was still pretending to be dead on the bed, and lifted the quilt on his body.

"Ouch, it's hot to death!" Wang Hengyue gasped and sat up, took the towel handed by his wife to wipe the white powder off his face, and suddenly said with a smile: "Madam, the shrew you just played is really like." ”

Ma Yunxin glanced at him: "It's good now, maybe I'll really become a shrew." ”

"It's okay, it's okay, who dares to laugh at Lao Tzu's daughter-in-law." Wang Hengyue asked with a smile: "Did you say you could fool Hu Jingyi?" ”

"It should work." Ma Yunxin thought for a while: "It's vomiting blood and blood in the stool, so everyone believes it." Anyway, why do you want to put so much effort into Hu Jingyi? ”

"First, let him be less wary of me, and second, Lao Tzu doesn't want to go to Yanjing." Wang Hengyue Zhengse said: "Not only today, but in the future, except for my subordinates, as long as outsiders come, I have to pretend to be like this." Also, try to spread the word out as much as possible. ”

"Got it."

Before the words fell, the maidservant girl outside came in and said, "Sir, madam, there are people outside who ask to see you." ”

"Who? Hu Jingyi is back again? Wang Hengyue was stunned and hurriedly lay down again.

"No, it's a foreign woman, called Ma Ma or something."

Ma Yunxin suddenly turned her suspicious gaze to Wang Hengyue.

"Margaret?" Wang Hengyue blurted out, and suddenly saw his wife's puzzled expression, and hurriedly said: "That, when the rebellion was suppressed in Tibetan Province, I saved a village, and Margaret's uncle was the priest there."

The more it is depicted, the darker it becomes, where will Ma Yunxin believe these "nonsense" of her husband? Looking at the way he looked in front of Hu Jingyi, this person is really good at acting. But the conscience of heaven and earth, what Wang Hengyue said this time was all true

"Hey, Ares!"

When she saw Wang Hengyue, Margaret had already screamed excitedly. Beside her, there stood a Chinese woman, about Margaret's age, and very lovely.

"Ares?" Ma Yunxin, who knew a few words of English, was stunned when she heard it.

"Ah, the god of war in foreign mythology." Wang Hengyue was embarrassed, and quickly turned his face to Margaret: "Margaret, why did you come here?" ”

"I'm back." Margaret excitedly asked the girl next to her to translate: "You promised me that I can come to you!" ”

"Ah, oh" Wang Hengyue touched his head and pointed at the Chinese girl: "What about you, who are you?" ”

"Back to adults, my name is Rong Hanyan, I was Ruowei's classmate in France, and I came back later than Ruowei. I received a telegram from Ruowei, she said that she was coming to Rong County, and asked me to meet her here. ”
