Wang Maoru hurriedly bowed his hand and said exaggeratedly: "Zhuge in the middle of the woman, Zhuge in the middle of the girl, Xiaosheng admires, Xiaosheng admires it so much!" ”

Zhu Songyun covered his mouth and laughed, and said, "No matter how much Zhuge is a woman, I can't calculate you thief." ”

Wang Maoru said: "Could it be that this thief stole Songzhu's heart? Became a heart thief? ”

"you, beg for a fight." Zhu Songyun said with a red face.

Wang Maoru laughed, Zhu Songyun asked what you were laughing at just now, Wang Maoru told a joke about red wine, saying that Westerners tried their best to separate sugar from red wine after inventing red wine in the 16th century, but when the red wine arrived in China, it was taken by some nouveau riche local rich people in Shanghai, and it was too unpleasant to drink a sip, so he said that it was better to add sugar, and then when he encountered a Western-style dinner, he would always shout: "Red wine with sugar is delicious, I only drink red wine with sugar......" Zhu Songyun smiled and bent over, and even said that there is such a thing in Shanghai, It must be you who slander the nouveau riche in Shanghai. Wang Mao Ruxin said that not only at this time, but a hundred years later, red wine and Sprite began to spread from Shanghai to all parts of the country, forming a Chinese-style nouveau riche habit of drinking red wine.

On this occasion, Feng Guozhang and Duan Qirui did not agree with each other, there was little communication in the banquet, and Feng Guozhang was old, so he retired early, and then Duan Qirui did not like this Western-style occasion to say goodbye to everyone, to say that the most popular was Xu Shuzheng, this person was smiling and gentle, and it was absolutely impossible to see from the surface that this person was a ruthless person. Wang Maoru and Miss Zhu San chatted about history and, Miss Zhu San also graduated from a girls' school with excellent skills, the two of them actually chatted about "Dream of Red Mansions", Wang Maoru spent both sides of "Dream of Red Mansions" did not understand, the first time I read the story, the second time I read the writing, or I watched the TV series to find it interesting and interesting. The two chatted about Hongxue selflessly, chatting and chatting Wang Maoru mentioned that "Dream of Red Mansions" was influenced a lot by another classical novel, Zhu Songyun asked what it was, Wang Maoru said "Golden Plum Bottle" seriously, Zhu Songyun snorted and said You really don't say something good. Wang Maoru said: I am discussing with you with the aesthetics of art, don't think like this.

The dinner went on at twelve o'clock, and Wang Maoru also felt tired. At the end of the banquet, everyone said goodbye one after another, and it ended successfully in the closing speech of US Ambassador Rui Ensch.

Before the banquet ended, I saw Wang Maoru, the deputy commander of the participating army, General Shangwu, carrying Miss Zhu San's arm. I went upstairs to the Six Nations Hotel and stayed in one of the rooms......

At eight o'clock the next morning, Wang Maoru was woken up by a knock on the door, looked at Zhu Songyun, who was sleeping sweetly next to him, and kissed him. Zhu Songyun's eyelashes moved, and Wang Maoru smiled: "Don't pretend, I know that you can do it, Songzhu, I went to the war to attend the meeting, and I will come back to accompany you in the evening." Just about to get up, Zhu Songyun hurriedly opened his eyes and hugged his waist. Say, "You come back early." Wang Maoru said, "Okay." Then he reached out and touched her. Amused her Jiaojiao, the knock on the door sounded again, Wang Maoru had no choice but to shrug her shoulders helplessly, and said, "Take a good bath at night and wait for me." ”

At the door stood adjutant Ma Liang and secretary general Zhang Yiwei. Captain of the Guards Deng Zichao, Captain of the Airborne Forces Bai Ziqing. Yu Xiaomao, the captain of the Young Guards, and more than thirty members of the Guards stood. Smoking a cigarette and talking. Wang Maoru walked out, and Zhang Yiwei hurriedly asked: "Xiushuai, are you resting well?" ”

Wang Maoru glared at him and said, "Accompanied by beautiful women, it's a pity that they are disturbed, and they will not be forgiven." ”

Ma Liang and the others laughed, and Ma Liang said: "Xiushuai, you have wronged Secretary Zhang, it was Yu Xiaomao who knocked on the door." ”

Wang Maoru took Yu Xiaomao's ear and said: "Dead child, they don't dare to knock, just dare to knock on the door, how do you grow your brain?" Someone sold it and gave it back to the number of people, do you know? ”

Yu Xiaomao hurriedly covered his ears and begged for mercy, and Wang Maoru let him go. The group came to the War Department's European War Division, although the supervision of the War Office was Duan Qirui, but at this time the actual person in charge of the War Office was Xu Shuzheng, and all the personnel of the War Department competed to communicate with Wang Maoru and others. After a day of discussions, the plan of supply, replenishment, and military pay was determined. And about the order of sending troops, Wang Maoru also made some requirements, and finally decided that the order of sending troops was the fourth division of the Northeast Frontier Army, and then the second division of the army Ma Liang (this Ma Liang is not Wang Maoru's adjutant Ma Liang, the word Zizhen, the Hui nationality, the Qingyuan people of Zhili, successively served as the commander of the 47th mixed brigade, the Jinan town guard, and the general of the Anhui department), and the next order is the seventh division of the Northeast Frontier Army, the third division of the participating army, the first division, and finally the sixth division of the Northeast Frontier Army withdrawn from Mongolia (not yet determined). The military salaries were all borne by the government of the Republic of China, and the arms supplement Wang Maoru's unit was supplemented by the British, and Duan Qirui's troops were replenished by Japan.

The plan would not have been so urgent, but today coincided with Duan Qirui's fifty-fourth birthday, and Xu Shuzheng and Wang Maoru had to deal with it quickly, and reached a series of agreements at three o'clock in the afternoon. Then, Xu Shuzheng said: "Why don't you go with me to celebrate the prime minister's birthday?" ”

Wang Maoru hurriedly said: "It's just that the kid didn't prepare any birthday gifts, and his hands were empty, so he was really ...... Shameless to face. ”

Xu Shuzheng shook his head and said: "Xiusheng doesn't know, the prime minister has a personal principle, he doesn't accept generous gifts, if you are ready to give generous gifts, he will definitely not accept them." ”

Wang Maoru said suddenly: "I see, so I will go back and prepare, the gift is not heavy, but I also have to express my heart." ”

Xu Shuzheng said with a smile: "People call you Wang Maoru a fox fairy, if it's true, you prepare, I want to see what gifts you prepare at night." ”

Wang Maoru laughed and said, "Brother Zheng, don't laugh at it." ”

Back at the Liuguo Hotel, Zhu Songyun was dressing up, she knew that Wang Maoru would come back at night, but she didn't expect it to be so early, so strange, Wang Maoru said: "On the Prime Minister's birthday in the evening, I don't know what birthday gift to prepare." ”

Zhu Songyun said: "I also know this birthday, non-Anhui descendants and VIPs can't participate, Brother Xiusheng, you go, it seems that the Anhui family is making great efforts to win over you." ”

Wang Maoru said with a smile: "The Anhui system is the most powerful today, so naturally I have to deal with them well." ”

Zhu Songyun said: "You men, you are really boring to death when you call around all day long." ”

"How can we be interesting and not boring?" Wang Maoru asked with a smile.

"It's better to play mahjong, my father said that if all the local warlords spend the money on the soldiers and on the people, the Republic of China will not be like a mess." Zhu Songyun said.

Wang Maoru heard that Zhu Qichao had this kind of ambition for the first time, and he had always thought that he was just one of Yuan Shikai's politicians and the Thirteen Taibao, but he didn't expect him to have such a mind and ideals, and admired it in his heart, and said: "What your father said is right, but unfortunately, everyone wants power." ”

Zhu Songyun suddenly clapped his hands and said, "I know there is a good thing that you can give to Premier Duan." ”

"What's that?"

Zhu Songyun said: "Radio ore radios, which are sold in foreign companies, can receive foreign radio stations, and my family has one, and my father often listens to foreign news, but the noise is a little louder. ”

Wang Mao Ruxin said that there was a radio radio in this era, so he asked Ma Liang to buy one, but after Ma Liang bought it back, he found that it was really one, a big one, weighing more than 30 pounds, good guy, black, made of willow wood, quite strong, using an American-made battery, but the horn was smaller, and it looked clumsy, heavy and ugly. Zhu Songyun jumped over, turned on the radio, listened carefully, twisted a few times, and really received the radio waves in English, French, and Japanese, and the noise was not small, listening to Wang Maoru's ears, it was a noise.

Zhu Songyun clapped his hands and said, "It's done, four batteries can last for a week." ”

As Wang Maoru's lover, Zhu Songyun naturally couldn't go to Duan Qirui's birthday banquet, if he was seen by reporters outside, there would be another uproar, but fortunately, Duan Qirui's birthday banquet only invited some military and political dignitaries from the Anhui family to participate, and female dependents were forbidden to participate. So Wang Maoru pretended to be ugly and said, "If I don't bring you to participate, I might as well not go." ”

Zhu Songyun said: "Then how can it be done, men's careers are important, you go, I am already very content with you." ”

This time Duan Qirui's birthday, the people present are really Anhui dignitaries, what Xu Shuzheng, Zhang Zhitan, Luo Kaibang, Chen Zheng and other martial artists naturally don't need to say, such as Cao Rulin, Zeng Yujun, Wang Yitang, Wang Yinguang, Yun Guangjin and other literati are also listed, and Jin Yunpeng, Fu Liangzuo, Tian Zhongyu, Duan Zhigui, Qu Tongfeng, Ma Liang, Chen Wenyun and other generals are in the column, sitting at five tables, it can be said that the Anhui elite gathered together, Wang Maoru rushed to confess, Duan Qirui's second son Duan Honggang was instructed by Duan Qirui to ask him to be the chief, Wang Maoru hurriedly told him that he was worthy of being the chief.

However, Duan Honggang said: "At this moment, if you shirk again, Brother Xiusheng will not be modest but hypocritical, and how many people will slander it in their hearts." Brother Xiusheng, please, don't let my father wait anxiously. ”

Wang Maoru had no choice but to obey his fate and sit among the chiefs, Duan Qirui naturally sat in the first place, not to mention that the left side of the side was Duan Qirui's uncle Duan Zhigui (Wang Shizhen), the secretary general of the State Council, Xu Shuzheng, the speaker of the National Assembly, Wang Yitang, the speaker of the National Assembly, and on the right was Jin Yunpeng, who had a conflict with Duan Qirui for a time and then was now reactivated, next to Jin Yunpeng was Tian Wenlie, the chief minister of agriculture and commerce, Zhu Shen, the chief justice officer, Cao Rulin, the chief financial officer, Gong Xinzhan, the director of the Salt Administration of the Senate, and the table of ten people happened to leave a seat out. Wang Maoru sat down half-pushed.

Since they are all Duan Qirui's henchmen, they are naturally mostly Anhui villagers, and the Anhui accent outside the words is also very heavy, there are indeed too many Chinese dialects, and Wang Maoru is not a language genius, so he really can't understand their Anhui dialect. (Ximen didn't understand either, but when he was young, Ximen and an Anhui classmate said that they scolded each other in their hometown, and Ximen's Northeast dialect scolded against Dongzi's Anhui dialect, which ended in Ximen's complete victory.) Because Simon couldn't understand his Anhui dialect, he could understand Simon's Northeast dialect...... ）
