Sometimes, Chen Tianhua would also talk to her about some life ambitions and meanings, principles of life and doing things, etc.

Hu Yaoxiang has liked and worshiped heroes since she was a child. Chen Tianhua has been elevated to a hero in her mind, and she has gained more respect in her heart.

If it weren't for the changes in her family, her life trajectory might have been a different kind of romance.

After get off work, Hu Yaoxiang returned to the mansion.

Since the third wife's full moon, the thoughts of Fan Chenggui's family have been focused on their young son and the young third concubine.

As the saying goes: Mother is most precious to her son.

Hu Yaoxiang returned to the days of staying alone in the empty boudoir.

Suddenly, she saw Zhang Ping, a township league coach, accompanying a group of people at the window.

He knew Fei Yingtun, the second master of the Fei family, and a middle-aged man wearing a blue feather entered the small living room. He had a big belly and kept shaking his head as he walked. From a distance, he looked like a big floating lantern.

Isn't this the county government inspector Hou Changshan?

Fei Yingtun was waiting for Changshan to arrive. Fan Chenggui was waiting at the door and accompanied them into the small living room.

It's so late, what are you talking about in secret at home? It's sneaky.

After thinking about it, Hu Yaoxiang came down from upstairs, left her side courtyard, and walked to the small living room in the third courtyard.

She is good at peeping.

…

"Brother Chenggui, it depends on how this matter is handled. Everyone has an opinion, so I can go back and explain the situation clearly to my father and elder brother." As soon as he sat down, Fei Yingtun spoke up, looking a little downcast.

Ever since Chen Tianhua caused trouble in Cuiweiju a year ago, the Xie Qiaofei family has regarded Chen Tianhua as a thorn in their flesh, always looking for opportunities to exact revenge.

I sent people to follow me for a long time, but couldn't find a suitable opportunity for a while.

The target opportunity has come, that is, Chen Tianhua has built a lime kiln, which is quite large in scale.

What the Fei family didn't expect was that Fan Chenggui and Liu Wenjie also invested in the shares and became the second and third largest shareholders. This made the Fei family a bit cautious.

After all, the lime kiln was screwed up and Fan Chenggui and Liu Wenjie suffered serious financial losses. They would not agree to it.

At this time, the lime kiln business in Hebo was booming, so I wanted to raise some money for river management expenses. The reason was of course the excavation of raw materials, because the excavation sites were all in Hebo.

They posted notices prohibiting villagers from trading the excavated shells directly with the Shuangshan Kiln, and that the shells should be purchased by the Yamen.

At the same time, brothers from the Hongmen Lake Shao Gang were assigned to block the lake.

The purpose of these measures is to force the owners to negotiate with a riverbank or workshop, and then pay a considerable management fee every year.

Liu Wenjie saw this motive clearly, and he proposed to negotiate with the county government office and pay some so-called river management fees to save money and eliminate disasters.

But the Fei family, who were watching closely behind the scenes, didn't want to just let it go. They concocted an incident of "stealing national mineral resources" and made an anonymous report first.

When the report letter arrived at the county government office, the county captain Fei Ruchun understood it. He immediately sent an inspection officer to wait for Chang Shan to go down. After a lot of pretense, the illegal excavation incident was established. He posted a government announcement to completely block the excavation of raw materials and prepared to arrest people and jail them.

At the same time, Mr. Fei paid for the Hongmen Hushao Clan to come to provoke and start a fight.

After a two-pronged approach, they found Fan Chenggui for a showdown.

This is the reason why Chen Tianhua and Liu Wenjie did not find Fan Chenggui in the afternoon.

He disappeared mysteriously. He actually went to Xieqiao to meet with the boss Fei Yinghe and the second master Fei Yingtun.

"Brother Chenggui, our Fei family is going to attack Chen Tianhua, you won't mind, right?" Fei Yinghe said coldly.

"Hey, brother Yinghe, your Fei family is looking for Chen Tianhua to settle all the grudges. This is a matter of course. How can I, Fan, mind? It's just that Fan invested thousands of dollars in Shuangqi Kiln Farm. This loss... hehe... it depends on how you calculate it.

."

Fan Chenggui was a man in the world, and he knew how to handle things. When he saw the Fei family settling an old score with Chen Tianhua, he immediately cut off the relationship.

"This is easy to handle. The Fei family has found Chen Tianhua himself, not Shuangqi Kiln. As long as he is put in prison, his shares will be confiscated by the Yamen and auctioned at a low price. This kiln belongs to you Fan Chenggui and Liu Wenjie.

Finally, our Fei family also injected funds to cooperate like Shuangqi Academy." Fei Yinghe was confident.

Fan Chenggui pondered for a moment, then raised his eyes and said, "Fan has no objection to this matter. It's just that Fan needs to clear up the relationship in all matters, so that fellow villagers will not be exposed and gossiped about."

His meaning was very clear. What happened to Chen Tianhua and what fate he ended up with had nothing to do with him, Fan Chenggui. He must not be regarded as one of the betrayers.

He will continue to act and express that he will do his best to help Chen Tianhua.

How could Fei Yinghe not know this idea of ​​being a bitch and building a memorial arch at the same time? He smiled and said:

"Of course. After this, please say hello to Brother Wenjie first, so that he won't continue to be wishful thinking."

"No problem." Fan Chenggui nodded and smiled.

"Okay, Brother Chenggui, please have tea. We'll just wait here for good news."

"..."

The two brothers of the Fei family were accompanying Fan Chenggui in the office to celebrate, chatting and laughing, when the master of the Fei family hurriedly came in, walked to Fei Yinghe and whispered, and handed over a copy of an official document, "This is a special trip sent by the old master from the city."

Come."

After hearing this, Fei Yinghe's face changed. He took the copy of the official document from his master and looked at it. His hands were shaking with anger. He threw the teacup in his hand to the ground angrily.

"Crack..." There was a crisp sound, and a valuable blue and white porcelain tea bowl broke into several petals, with tea leaves and tea water splashing everywhere.

"What's wrong, brother?"

Fei Yingtun, who was chatting with Fan Chenggui at the side, saw this and was so shocked that he quickly got up and walked to the front desk. He took the official document copy from Fei Yinghe and took a look at it. He also muttered with a pale face: "How could this be? It's not that Li Cunzhi will be in the future.

Don’t you have much ability left?”

Fan Chenggui also came over to take a look. The official document was issued by the Zhejiang governor's office. It included a decision to establish the Military Affairs Department of Zhejiang Province and appointed Li Cunzhi, the first assistant commander of the Huai Army stationed in Zhejiang, as the envoy to control the military affairs of the province.

He was also shocked.

It turned out that Li Hongzhang, a bachelor of Wenhua Palace, governor of Zhili Province, and minister of Beiyang, suddenly died of illness in Beijing at the beginning of last month. Li Cunzhi and other relatives of the Li family came to Beijing to mourn.

It is estimated that after Li Hongzhang passed away suddenly, the Li family did not have a suitable successor who could take over the entire Huai Army from him.

In other words, the Li clan members in the political and military circles will plummet once they lose a towering tree like Li Hongzhang.

Li Cunzhi will also withdraw from the stage of history in Zhejiang politics. At best, the standard system will remain unchanged, but the police department will be abolished.

Unexpectedly, before his death, Li Hongzhang handed over his entire power system and military system to Yuan Shikai.

Especially the Huai Army, which he devoted his whole life to.

Looking around the world, there is no one more talented than Yuan Shikai.

This is Li Hongzhang's legacy to Emperor Guangxu of the Qing Dynasty.

Soon, Yuan Shikai inherited all the mantles of Li Hongzhang and became the governor-general and minister of Beiyang, in charge of the new Beiyang Army and the new Huai Army.

In fact, all Huai army generals followed Li Hongzhang's instructions and swore allegiance to Yuan Shikai.

Yuan Shikai received such a generous gift out of thin air, so of course he knew how to repay the favor.

Li Cunzhi was promoted to the first assistant commander of the Huaixin Army, and also served as the inspector of Zhejiang to control the military affairs of the province.
