When Pu Xian arrived at the train station, he was overjoyed to see people coming and going, the business was flourishing, and the place was bustling with activity. He was walking in the crowd when he heard a familiar voice calling to him. ” Senior Brother Pu Xian, why is it you! ”
Pushin looked in the direction of the voice and saw a merchant in a long-sleeved top hat pushing his way through the crowd towards him. Pu Xian recognized Dongfang Yijie at a glance. ”It's you, Yijie! Why did we meet here? ”I was just worrying about a person's depression. I don't know anyone around me.” ”The two of them embraced happily.
It turned out that Yuan Jun, who had finished investigating the situation in the Sanjiang River of the two lakes and three rivers, had hurried over here. He planned to investigate and then return to Kunming.
The two of them were elated for a moment before arriving at a secluded place. Pu Xian said: ”Since that day, I missed you so much. I thought you weren't coming back after all this time. Why are you here? ”
One of them said, ”If it wasn't for us coincidentally meeting today, we really would have had to wait a bit longer to meet. I intend to stay here for two days before returning to Kunming. I just came from the Xuzhou, so I came here to find out about Yuan Jun's defense. General Cai is waiting for this information. ”
Pu Xian was surprised and said: ”That means the General Cai is going to attack from the north?” Yijie nodded. ”That is what the two generals mean.”
”Why did you come here alone?”
Pu Xian said: ”Since you left, the capital has been safe and sound. Fang Shen asked Master Ru Feng and I to help Master Fa Ming. He actually came to Henan. Along the way, Ru Feng's master only asked him about Yuan Jun's situation. After asking around here, he went back to Zheng Zhou to ask about Ru Feng. Only after searching thoroughly could he bring me to Shandong Province to find Master Fa Ming. He's been gone a few days, and I'm coming to pick him up at the station. I didn't expect that I would receive it. ”
Once Yi Jie heard that Ru Feng had also come, and collected quite a bit of Yuan Jun's information, he was overjoyed, and immediately became happy: ”Master Ru Feng is truly a lucky man. If we meet, everything about Yuan Jun will be clear. I don't need to run around anymore, I will just wait here for him to come back. ”
Pu Xian said: ”Master Ru Feng has gathered a lot of information regarding Yuan Jun. ”He's about to return from Zhengzhou and send the information to Kunming.”
When Yi Jie heard this, he became even more happy. He immediately had a good time and said, ”This is the first time I'm here at the Open Seal. I heard that there are a few famous monuments here. I can take this opportunity to tour around.”
Pu Xian said: ”In the past few days, I have been touring around. Nothing. Only the seventy-two steps of the Dragon Pavilion, the fenced-in stable beast, the corner of the main building with its heavy eaves, and the beautiful lakeshore surrounding it were still relatively visible. The difference between Beijing and other places is like heaven and earth. Open Seal are really not fun. ”
”You're from Beijing,” said Yijie. ”You're used to the scenery there, so of course you won't find it beautiful if you look at other places. But don't be too selfish. You've seen it, and I haven't seen anything. How about forcing yourself to walk with me again? ” Pu Xian laughed: ”I can also be your tour guide. Where do you want to go first? I'll take you there. ”
A jie said, ”Since you said that Dragon Pavilion is the most beautiful, then let's go see Dragon Pavilion first.” The two chatted as they watched the scenery. Yijie recounted what he had seen on the way out of Beijing and what had happened to him.
Just as the two of them were talking about Japanese spies and Yama Takashi, a palanquin suddenly appeared in front of them, followed by a few people.
A Jie looked at the palanquin and laughed: ”Not strange at all, you said that the Open Seal palanquin is the most beautiful. These words were indeed true. Look at that sedan chair, it's dressed up like a flower and decorated too beautifully. Like a bride in a bridal sedan. The person seated inside must be someone's daughter. ”
Pu Xian also sized up the carriage, shook his head and laughed: ”I see that the person sitting in the carriage does not look like Miss Qian Jin. There must be a big fat pig tied up inside. ”
Jie burst out in laughter and said, ”You really know how to scold people. How can you sit in a palanquin with a fat pig?”
Pu Xian said: ”You are not being careful, look at that palanquin pole which is bent to the point of breaking. How can an ordinary girl be so heavy? ” Yijie laughed and said, ”You are such a spendthrift that you don't understand family matters. Not all the ladies were slim. Haven't you heard? miss Qian Jin, it must be heavy. ” The two chatted and laughed as they watched the palanquin move forward. In next to no time, the two of them arrived at the opposite side of the palanquin.
Pu Xian saw the person in the palanquin clearly, and lightly pulled at a jie and whispered: ”Weird, the one sitting in the palanquin is Yuan Shikai's eldest son, Yuan Keding. What is he doing here? ”
Jie said in surprise, ”Yes, it's him. I saw that the others were familiar with the palanquin as well. like a spy in a Japanese monastery in Beijing. ”
Pu Xian immediately became alert: ”It's them. I can see it very well, too. Skin peeling, I still recognize their bones. No wonder the capital is so quiet, all these things have come here to cause a ruckus. ”
