C9 (2/2)
The dancers obediently and nimbly avoided the attack. He stood up and was about to join the dance when he grabbed the dancers and laughed, ”Miss, your dance is excellent. Teach me, I love to dance. Let's jump together. ” After saying that, he started to dance while laughing. Seeing this, Yuan Shikai's blood rushed to his head. With the help of the wine, he could not suppress the emotions in his heart, so he stood up to join in the dance.
After a while, Yuan Shikai got tired of dancing first, and then sat down with Jing Fu to drink tea and enjoy the dance. The two of them constantly talked about the female dancers as they pointed and laughed.
When Yuan Shikai saw that Jing Jiu had fallen for the dancer, he approached her and said, ”Are you the famous Lady Lu Yuxian? ”Hurry up and serve Mr. Miaoko some tea.” Jadechild nodded first, then slightly parted her red lips and said in a soft voice, ”Yes.” She lifted her dress and walked over. Lifting her arm, she gently lifted the white jade pot and first poured it for Yuan Shikai, then she turned around and poured it for the servant on the well. She then slightly bent her body and said, ”Sir, please have some tea.” The silent man was immediately excited, he quickly took a closer look at the Green Jade Immortal. Seeing her blush and blush, with an expression that was not a smile, her eyes were filled with emotion. He was also amused and quickly said: ”Please take a seat Miss, please take a seat!”
Lu Yuxian did not dare to sit, so she said, ”Thank you for your hospitality, Mister. She knew she was too weak to sit on the same level as the President and her husband. I am already deeply honored to be able to be accompanied by an attendant. ” When Yuan Shikai heard that, he squinted his eyes and felt happy. He said to Jadeite: ”Please take a seat, Mr. Oi.” Only now did Jadechild gently sit down on the well, next to the quiet man.
Shimamoto immediately turned around and took her hand to talk to her. He first asked, ”How old are you, Miss?” Lu Yuxian replied, ”Two or eight cubes.” At the top of the well, the man asked again, ”Miss, what age are you?” When she saw him ask her more than ten questions, she covered her face and laughed, ”I am sixteen years old.”
Just then, a young military officer walked over to Yuan Shikai and said in a low voice, ”President, according to your orders, I have already arranged everything outside. He added ten sentries and a platoon of patrolling soldiers. No one would be able to get in here. I guarantee that there will be no mistakes. ” When Yuan Shikai heard this, he was elated. ”Alright, we won't allow anyone to enter or leave.” The officer immediately stood up straight and said, ”Yes!” He turned around and left.
Yuan Shikai looked at his pocket watch and said to Jing Fu, ”Mister, it's time.” Only then did Jingfu let go of Jadeite and turn around. Yuan Shikai waved to the crowd, and the dancers quietly retreated. The room instantly quieted down, leaving only Yuan Shikai and Jing Fu behind.
Soon, a maid brought a tray full of dishes and wine and placed them on the table. She then poured wine for the two of them and left. Yuan Shikai said to Jing Fu, ”Sir, let's talk while we eat.” The yamen runner quickly said, ”Yes, yes.”
After the two of them sat down, Yuan Shikai continued, ”Mister's visit this time has brought a deep affection for me. It will make our two countries, China and Japan, more friendly. ”
Jing Fu nodded again and said, ”That's right, that's right.” Yuan Shikai continued: ”The last time we met, you gave me the Heavenly Emperor's Letter, and I have already read it in detail. The conditions in it were truly harsh and unworthy. I am sorry to trouble you, sir, to reply to the Emperor, and to abstain from those harsh conditions at your discretion. Although I am doing this for the sake of making a big gift at all costs, but I really don't deserve to sacrifice too much. I really find it hard to accept the conditions in the Sky Emperor's letter. ” He pondered for a moment before continuing, ”Regarding the matter in Outer Mongolia, I have been very unpopular. The entire country was in an uproar and had just been saved. In the letter of the Emperor, he also proposed the conditions for the surrender of Northeast China. We cannot divide our land in the future. ”
Hearing this, the man standing in the well said, ”Mister, you should ask yourself, how much sovereignty do you have? Why not go with the flow? ” Yuan Shikai said with a heavy tone, ”That's too much.”
Jingfu said, ”Don't seal it too tightly, mister. Amongst all the powerful empires nowadays, the Japanese Empire is the most powerful. We are also your most reliable friends. Those Westerners are extremely unreliable when it comes to disloyalty. You mustn't listen to them. As long as you want to be a big deal, you must have a backer like us in Japan. Our Emperor has said that as long as you can agree to these conditions, he wishes you a step higher. As for those unworthy things, they can be discussed again. ”
When Yuan Shikai heard Jing Fu's words, he suddenly had an inspiration and immediately bought Jing Fu. He said, ”I understand what you mean. The success or failure was all up to him. Please, sir, do your best to promote this matter. I will not go back on my word. If you have any personal requests, I will do my best to fulfill them. Sir, if you want to be rich, I can give you endless amounts of money and glory. If you pursue personal enjoyment, there are endless famous mountains and rivers and urban scenery; boring you to sightsee; have fun, the company of beauty, for you to have fun. Sir, what do you want? ”
When the man in the well heard this, he raised his glass and said happily, ”Okay! What a friend you are, sir. I'll definitely try my best to help you when I return home in the next few days. ”
The two raised their cups and drank it all in one gulp. They were both in high spirits. Yuan Shikai said happily, ”To be honest, I've been helping the country to become an emperor for a long time. It was just that the conditions were not ready, the timing was not ripe, and the reasons were insufficient. Now the time had come. ”I have the support of your country. With military funds and weapons, as well as my million strong warriors, the rebellion will soon come to an end. It will be a success for the empire.”
The teacher in the well listened and remembered, and said: ”By the virtue of your talent, you should have been the Son of Heaven long ago. Right now, your four seas are at peace and the world is returning to its heart. Mister decided to call himself emperor, which was a good opportunity. I'm very touched. When I go back, I will be in the presence of the Emperor, and I will try my best to do what I can for my master. I will surely argue with him and painstakingly tell him to cut those inappropriate conditions to help you, Mister. ”
Hearing that, Yuan Shikai slapped the table happily: ”Alright! I am waiting for your kind words. Next month, we'll meet at noon on the day of the full moon. When the time comes, I will first gift Teacher a rare treasure. I will definitely make sure that your trip is worthwhile. ”
