Chapter 197 Leaks

When the fleet was riding the wind and waves, the city of Beijing was already about to rain ().

Early in the morning, the two carriages stopped in front of the presidential palace almost at the same time, Wang Yitang got off the car with dark circles under his eyes, and saw Liang Shiyi wrapped in a cotton robe, the tip of his nose was red and kept breathing, and said with a smile: "In this winter, Yansun is also so early." ”

Liang Shiyi snorted coldly in his heart, if it weren't for Yuan Shikai's relationship, he really didn't want to be with this person, looking at his face, he knew that he must have spent the night in Bada Hutong last night, this person was conceited and loved to smoke a lot, he was really not a credible person, and he didn't know that the president had committed that barbarian evil spirit, so he actually got him to his side, and pointed to several other cars outside the gate: "Didn't Shenwu see that there was anyone earlier than me?" ”

Wang Yi Tangpi smiled and twitched the corners of his mouth a few times (). Xu Shichang didn't come out, only Duan Qirui was active in the military circles, Tang Shaoyi and Lu Zhengxiang and others left one after another, Yuan Shikai was left with Liang Shiyi, Zhao Bingjun, Yang Shiqi and himself, as for that Yang Du, everyone can see it, since he went to Wuchang with Tang Shaoyi, and after witnessing the former resign and defect to Yang Qiu, he has always kept a little distance from here.

Yang Shiqi's position is untouchable, Zhao Bingjun has helped Yuan Shikai do a lot of secret things, and it is not so easy to bring down, if you want to go further, you can only push this "second president" over, and the best way to overpower him is to hit the best finances, so Wang Yitang deliberately approached and asked: "Yan Sun, what happened to the big loan you did to deal with the aftermath?" The president has been anxious these days, and Zhiquan has asked me several times, and he is still waiting for the rice to be cooked. ”

Liang Shiyi understood what he meant, Yuan Shikai let himself talk to the bank group of the four countries about the aftermath of the big loan, but on the other hand, he handed over the matter of communication with the Japanese, undoubtedly to let the two contain each other, and now his happy appearance must have made a breakthrough, and asked: "There is good news on Shenwu's side, how much loan did Japan promise?" ”

"It's not just a loan." Wang Yitang was triumphant, and hit him and said: "100 million loans, 95% off, and all the equipment of the five divisions was promised, just wait for the president to nod." ”

Although he didn't say anything about the exchange conditions of the loan, how could Liang Shiyi not know that the Japanese were just full of Mongolian ideas. But this amount really made him feel pressured, he knew that Yuan Shikai was reluctant to connect with Japan in his heart, but if the aftermath of the big loan could not be done, it would be difficult to say! Originally, he hoped that this big loan could help him go further, but now it seems that things are not very good, Zhu Erdian agreed to the loan, and also guaranteed the delivery of three upfront payments, but the bank group of the four countries hesitated a lot this time, mainly because Germany and the United States wanted to break the constraints of the principle of unanimity with China, and they also wanted to see if the peace talks could make progress this time, and they were afraid that the money lent out would come to naught, so they did not agree to the follow-up payments.

Wang Yitang saw that his face was not good, knowing that he had the upper hand this time, he was in a good mood and walked inward, both of them were Yuan Shikai's henchmen, so the guards did not stop him and walked directly into the office.

Before entering the door, I saw a beautiful figure in a cotton cheongsam sorting things in the office, the woman turned her head when she heard footsteps, and saw that it was Wang Yitang, a big smoker, and she didn't give a good face: "Lord Wang is so early, I see that the adults know that the situation is difficult, and even the place of Fengyue is open so early." ”

Such spicy and direct words made Wang Yitang's face flash a few times, although Liang Shiyi was very happy in his heart, he also felt harsh, and he probably couldn't help it if he was another woman, but this person is not an ordinary person! The appearance of flowers and moons is coveted, but the sister-in-law is alone in reverie, and her literary talent is even more gorgeous. The experience is simply legendary, at the age of 13, he rescued his father from the bandits' den, went to Tianjin Girls' School alone despite the obstacles, became the chief teacher of the girls' school at the age of 20, Cixi dared to publicly ridicule and force the Jianhu Woman to give up the name of Bicheng, and at the age of 29, he was close to the center as a woman and served as the secretary of the president! The most important thing is that Yuan Shikai has the intention to match her and her second son Yuan Kewen, so Wang Yitang can only put on a smiling face and call Miss Lanqing.

Lu Bicheng's eyes were cold, and after entering the center as Yuan Shikai's secretary with enthusiasm, he knew that the officialdom in the north had long been rotten, and the officials had formed parties for personal gain, and corruption was rampant, even Yuan Keding occupied the Kailuan coal mine to make money, and those Kuomintang legislators who kept saying that the revolution came to the north and were also in the same stream. But Yuan Shikai used such a person, and with her heart, she naturally looked very unpleasant, and she had already scolded in the newspaper before.

"Miss Lanqing is angry, Shen Wu has worked a lot hard to raise money during this time." After all, Liang Shiyi and Wang Yitang were officials together, and said two good words and asked, "I don't know if the president is up?" ”

"Discuss things with the prime minister, and tell me that I will not see any guests today." In the face of Lu Bicheng's generous obstruction, Wang Yitang was anxious about the matter of negotiations with Japan, and took out the contract drafted last night and handed it to her: "Please Lanqing hand this over to the president, please let me know if this matter is urgent." ”

"Okay, the two adults will wait for a moment." Lu Bicheng couldn't get used to these people, but she was now the secretary of the president, Yuan Shikai treated her well, picked up the documents and didn't look at the two turned around and walked to the back hut, looking at her slender back, Wang Yitang snorted coldly in his heart, and sat down to talk to Liang Shiyi about fundraising.

Wang Yitang is not a person who can't hold his breath, he has already blocked the car and is still in a hurry to see Yuan Shikai, so even Lu Bicheng is curious, open the draft contract and read it while walking, but after reading it, his pretty face suddenly became cold, and his eyes were even more angry ()! Where is this urgent matter, it is clear that Manchurian and Mongolia are going to be sold to Japan completely!

Although she couldn't tear this thing off, she could only close it and sigh in the end. In the final analysis, she is still a woman, and Yuan Shikai asked her to be the secretary most likely because she was afraid that she would write articles and ridicule without scruples outside, so she simply brought the center closer, and at the same time, let the outside world see the open-mindedness of the president, and the courage to use the virtuous regardless of men and women, as for Yuan Kewen, how can a self-confident son get into her eyes.

So I didn't see the quick walk towards the conference room, and when I arrived at the door, I was about to knock on the door, but I saw that the door was not closed tightly, and Zhao Bingjun's low voice came from inside: "I have already explained this matter, the person was chosen by Ying Guixin, and it was planted on Yang Qiu's head after the incident, and I can't complain about us." ”

Without waiting for her to figure out what was going on, Yuan Shikai also sighed: "Zhi'an, are we doing this?" ”

Seeing that Yuan Shikai was still hesitating, Zhao Bingjun gritted his teeth and said, "The president can't hesitate anymore!" Yang Qiu and Song Jiaoren can go to Tianjin tomorrow, as long as they die, there will be no one in charge in the south! Sun Cannon and Huang Keqiang are no more than Cao Kou and the like, as long as Chen Eun can block Hubei's three-plate axe, Duan Zhigui and Zhang Xun can drive straight south to Lianghuai and Nanjing, and the two lines of attack on him The National Defense Army has no person in charge, and the army's morale will definitely be defeated! ”

Hearing this, Lu Bicheng's heart almost jumped out of the door, she didn't expect Yuan Shikai to actually want to assassinate Yang Qiu and Song Jiaoren! No matter how stupid people are, they can know what the consequences will be if the two are assassinated! Looking at the traitorous contract in his hand, his face was cold.

Yuan Shikai didn't know that his secret was heard by her, and he had no way out at this time, although Zhao Bingjun's method was not good, it was the only good opportunity for him to regain power, but this matter was too much to do, and he was still very worried and asked: "Has Zhi'an ever thought about it, if there is one person left, how can it be good?" ”

Of course, Zhao Bingjun can't say that your baby son also asked me to arrange another group of people, because Yuan Shikai didn't like him and Yuan Keding getting too close, and analyzed: "Don't worry about the president, no matter who dies in the south, there will be chaos, and someone will definitely jump out to make trouble, and when the time comes, we will impeach the central government, and no one in the world will dare to say anything." ”

Yuan Shikai felt that it made sense after thinking about it, the forces of the Kuomintang and Yang Qiu are both south of the Yangtze River, no matter who dies, there will definitely be a conflict, and the alliance between the two parties will definitely collapse, as long as he can keep his position and the integrity of the north, and wait until the aftermath of the big loan and Japan's secret agreement is one percent, you can go south on the grounds of quelling the chaos, and the two lakes are the base camp in the southwest as long as Anhui and Jiangxi are cut off ()! Is there anything else in the world that can stop you? Thinking of the depths, he himself was a little stupid, as if he saw the beautiful scenery of the world, and he didn't wake up until there was a knock on the door.

Lu Bicheng walked into the room with a smile on his face, and Yuan Shikai hurriedly beckoned when he saw her: "It's Lan Qing, is there anything wrong?" ”

"Lan Qing has met the president and Premier Zhao. Wang Yitang and Liang Shiyi are waiting for you to summon you, saying that there is an urgent matter, and let me bring this. Lu Bicheng handed the contract to Yuan Shikai, who opened it and glanced at it, and the corners of his eyebrows suddenly rose with joy, and said with a smile: "Thank you Lan Qing, the old man is not in good health during this time, thanks to your help, go and call them in." ”

"The president is polite, this is what Lan Qing should do." Lu Bicheng nodded slightly and walked out, Zhao Bingjun hid next to her and stared at her slender background and swallowed saliva, this woman is really too seductive, but unfortunately Yuan Shikai has the heart to match him and his second son, so no one in Beiyang dares to stretch out his claws. After pretending to praise her talent a few words, she glanced at the contract and said, "This Shenwu, how can you be so careless in doing things!" How can this matter be in the eyes of a third person? ”

Yuan Shikai was happy that the loan had been settled, and he didn't doubt it: "Zhi'an doesn't need to be so nervous, Lan Qing is not an outsider." ”

Zhao Bingjun nodded, but he didn't feel good in his heart, Yuan Shikai was good at everything, but he was a little wishful thinking in children's affairs, Yuan Kewen was talented, but this woman couldn't even look down on Wang Jingwei, how could she agree to a man who was five or six years younger than her? But he didn't delve into the matter, after all, it's a woman, even if he knew? In the end, it's not about being a Feng woman.

After Wang Yitang and Liang Shiyi entered, Lu Bicheng was thinking about how to get out, when he suddenly saw Yuan Kewen coming over, and raised his eyebrows: "Hanyun, just now my sister sent a telegram saying that she was sick, can you accompany me to Tianjin?" ”
