Chapter 325 If someone offends me, I will offend him
Ronin's running speed is still very fast.
Zhao Qian saw several rickshaw drivers and shouted to them: "Quickly stop Little Japan!"
Most of the coachmen did not take action when they saw this, but a colleague who had a good relationship with Zhao Qian threw his car into the middle of the road after Zhao Qian ran over. Ronin was unable to dodge and hit the car.
When he stood up again and wanted to chase him, "Yi Yan'er" had already gone through the streets and alleys to nowhere.
After running like crazy for more than ten minutes, Zhao Qian felt that his heart was beating fast. He finally couldn't run anymore and leaned against the wall of the alley beside him, gasping for air.
Li Yu said: "They can no longer catch up."
Zhao Qian supported the wall and asked: "Sir, what's going on with these people? Are they crazy?"
"I don't know either," Li Yu was tying his trouser legs on his thighs and asked, "Where are we now?"
Zhao Qian looked around and said, "We just walked out of Zongbu Hutong, and it should be Beijige Hutong now."
Li Yu said: "You are really a living map."
Zhao Qian said: "I just saw the Klinde Monument, and further ahead is the Prince Yi's Mansion. It's unmistakable."
The trigger for the invasion of the Eight-Power Allied Forces in 1900 was the murder of the German Minister Klind, which was located in Zongbu Hutong. After that, while the "Xinchou Treaty" was still being discussed, a "Klind Monument" was built here to commemorate it.
As a commemoration. The inscription was written by Guangxu himself and was regarded as a national shame by the Chinese people.
The Prince Yi's Mansion in Beijige Hutong is already a small-scale palace, and it has encountered many changes such as fires before.
Li Yu asked: "In other words, we have been running south. How far is it from Dongjiaomin Lane?"
Zhao Qian said: "There are about 3 miles left."
Li Yu said: "Then go directly to Dongjiaominxiang."
"Sit down, sir," Zhao Qian had already rested and stood up and said, "Dongjiaomin Alley is very long, where should we go?"
Li Yu laughed and scolded: "Nonsense, of course I have to go to Tongren Hospital first!"
Tongren Hospital is the earliest Western medicine hospital in Beijing, located just in Dongjiaomin Lane.
Zhao Qian quickly said yes and quickly ran to Tongren Hospital.
Tongren Hospital is run by Americans.
In fact, Western medicine in the early 20th century was just like that, except for dealing with trauma.
The word Western medicine itself is a bit strange. I feel that the "Western medicine" that everyone understands now should be called "modern medicine" to be more accurate.
The relationship between medicine and science is extremely close, and it is almost one of the applied disciplines at the forefront of science.
Therefore, Western medicine can only be powerful if modern science is strong.
The real rise of modern science is only a few years old.
As for Western medicine going forward...it's like punishment.
Doctors from Tongren Hospital disinfected Li Yu's wound and bandaged it. Fortunately, it was not a direct cut, and the blade did not penetrate much into the flesh. He could recover after a period of rest.
Then Li Yu asked Zhao Qian to take him to the British Embassy and found reporter Purland.
Pu Lande was quite surprised to see Li Yu like this: "I haven't seen you for a while. Have you gone to the battlefield?"
Li Yu smiled bitterly: "Someone plotted against me."
Li Yu entrusted him to send a telegram to Xu Shichang.
In the afternoon of that day, Xu Shichang rushed to Dongjiaomin Lane with Tang Shaoyi, who was a monk in the capital.
Beiyang has many eyes and ears, and they immediately knew the general ins and outs of the matter.
Tang Shaoyi first asked: "Brother Shucai, are your injuries okay?"
Li Yu said: "It's nothing serious."
Xu Shichang then asked: "Master Emperor, you don't really have correspondence with the rebel party, do you?"
Li Yu said: "If I remember correctly, there are still archives of past reformers in the capital, and they must contain Liang Qichao's handwriting. If we take them out and compare them, the truth will become clear."
Xu Shichang said: "Good idea."
Tang Shaoyi asked again: "It is said that there are also letters from Russians?"
Li Yu said: "That would be easier. Just check the postmark on the stamp to see if it was sent from Harbin."
When Tang Shaoyi saw that Li Yu spoke in an orderly manner, he immediately put down the big stone in his heart. As long as it was just a simple frame-up, it was fine! He lit a cigar and said to Li Yu: "Brother Shucai has a clear mind and can definitely become a lawyer or a county magistrate."
Resolve the case directly."
"It's just a normal deduction," Li Yu said, and then asked, "The person in charge of this matter should be the infantry commander's office, right?"
The highest commander of the Infantry Command Yamen is the so-called Jiumen Admiral, and the inner city of Beijing (that is, within the Second Ring Road) is under his control.
The part outside the inner city is the Shuntian Prefecture Yin Guan.
The Admirals of the Nine Gates and the Yin of the Shuntian Prefecture are both high-ranking officials, but in terms of official rank, the Admirals of the Nine Gates are still three levels higher. One is from the first rank, and the other is from the third rank.
Xu Shichang nodded: "According to common sense, it is indeed under the control of the infantry commander's Yamen."
Tang Shaoyi thought for a while and said: "The Admiral of the Nine Sects is Mr. Natong. With his character, he should not directly order the arrest of the imperial master."
Xu Shichang said: "Of course it's not him, otherwise we would have had the news already."
Li Yu asked: "Who gave the order?"
Xu Shichang said: "Na Tong has just taken over as the Admiral of the Nine Gates. The previous one was Prince Su Shanqi. When he was in office, he supported the separation of the military and police and established the Patrol Headquarters to replace the previous patrol battalions."
Li Yu immediately guessed: "The person in charge of the patrol headquarters is the Japanese Kawashima Naniwa?"
Xu Shichang said: "Yes, the current patrol tasks in Beijing are actually in the hands of Mr. Kawashima."
Kawashima Naniwa has obtained the official title of "Second Rank Guest Minister", which can be regarded as a high official.
"Made!" Li Yu cursed secretly in his heart.
Tang Shaoyi asked: "Brother Shucai, what issues did you have with the Japanese before?"
Li Yu said: "There is nothing wrong with it. It can't be because I sold some radio equipment to the Russians, right? The British, French, Belgians and Germans also bought it, and the Americans also bought it."
Tang Shaoyi said: "They may have only focused on the Russians."
He knows a bit about the Japanese.
"Wait a minute!" An idea flashed in Li Yu's mind, "If this is all the Japanese plan, wouldn't it become a closed loop? If the case is also tried by the Patrol Headquarters of Kawashima, I can't clear my mind even if I jump into the Yellow River.
."
Tang Shaoyi said: "It is indeed possible."
Li Yu said: "This will be troublesome!"
Xu Shichang came up with an idea: "You can tell Prince Qing and Minister Zai Zhen about the matter. You have friendship with them, and then transfer the matter to the yamen of the Nine Admirals, and we can help."
Tang Shaoyi added: "Fortunately, the place you came from is not bad. No one dares to come to Dongjiao Minxiang to arrest people. Don't leave here. It's not too late to go home after we get to the bottom of the matter."
Li Yu cupped his fists and said, "Thank you, my lords!"
Li Yu found paper and pen, and quickly wrote down the whole story and speculation, and asked Tang Shaoyi and Xu Shichang to take it to Prince Qing and his son.
However, Li Yu was very worried. The matter involved the Japanese. With the current ability of the Qing court, the best he could do was to clear his name. As for the rest, it was likely that the matter would be left alone.
There must be a lot of materials about Kang Liang and other reformers that were searched in the yamen, so it is not difficult to compare them.
They immediately discovered that the handwriting was not Liang Qichao's, it was much worse.
As for the Russian letter, Tang Shaoyi showed it to a Russian diplomat, who laughed directly: "Master Tang, are you kidding me? Don't think that your country has calligraphy. We Russians write like ghosts and talismans. You see
These letters are written crookedly, and there are even many low-level grammatical errors, as if they were written by a Russian primary school student. Could such a low level be written by the dignified General Horvath?"
With the Russians' words, we can directly conclude that it is a forgery.
——
Lu Bicheng, Huo Yuanjia and others also got the news and came to Dongjiaomin Lane to find Li Yu.
Lu Bicheng almost burst into tears when she saw Li Yu's leg injury. She rushed over and said worriedly: "Why, how could this happen!?"
Li Yu smiled and said: "It's okay now. I'm really lucky."
Lu Bicheng wiped away her tears: "That's easy to say. I heard Mr. Huo say that if he had been even a moment late, your head would have been dismembered!"
"So thank you, Master Huo!" Li Yu asked Huo Yuanjia, "The Japanese didn't do anything to you, right?"
Huo Yuanjia said: "Of course I have no problem! It's a pity that I didn't bring any weapons, otherwise I wouldn't have allowed them to escape unscathed."
The incident occurred suddenly, and Li Yu did not have a pistol with him. Otherwise, even if he could not recreate the majesty of Harbin Railway Station, he could at least let the Japanese know that he was not easy to mess with, and they would definitely pay a bloody price.
But I really didn’t expect the Japanese to take action at their own house, just like a sudden attack of rabies.
Fortunately, there were no terrible consequences.
But from now on, I really need to take my life-protecting baby Browning with me!
Lu Bicheng asked: "I have only been away for a day, how come such a big thing happened!? Not many people usually go to your study, why do you get inexplicable letters mixed in?"
Li Yu carefully recalled that his study was in a special courtyard, and there were really not many people who could go there. Only a few people like Lu Bicheng, Wei Zhaoxue, Fengling, etc. could go there.
He suddenly thought of Konoe Akiyuki's strange behavior at that time. He tilted so precisely that he happened to turn over a stack of books holding letters.
Li Yu never puts letters on the table. He has a special cabinet in his room.
Moreover, Konoe Akiyuki himself admitted that he has a deep understanding of Japan. Apart from his own knowledge of Japanese, there are not many Japanese people who can communicate with him.
There was also the strange little Wang that day. He shouldn't have gone there. Because Li Yu was very kind to servants such as Uncle Wang, Fengling, and Zhao Qian, and gave them a formal courtyard. The directions of the two courtyards were not on the same side.
If it's a coincidence, it's too much of a coincidence.
Of course, Li Yu could think that everything must have been carefully planned.
Now he can definitely come to the conclusion: there is a mole!
Seeing that Li Yu was deep in thought and silent, Lu Bicheng shook him.
Li Yu then said: "There is an internal response in the mansion."
Lu Bicheng was surprised: "Who could it be?"
Li Yu's eyes flashed and he said, "I'll know when I get back. The fox's tail won't always be hidden."
He doesn't have complete evidence yet, but once he becomes truly suspicious, he will definitely be able to find the person hiding in the dark.
Because although he doesn't understand criminal investigation, he has watched so many TV dramas about solving crimes, and he knows some key future technologies that today's society will not understand.
It can also be regarded as a kind of knowledge generation difference.
Li Yu has always lived a good life on his own, engaged in academics, education, and some industries. He has never thought of provoking others, but now that he offends himself, he will not make it so easy for them.
I will not offend others unless they offend me; if they offend me, I will offend them.
He finally felt that he still had not fully integrated into this era. Growing up in a peaceful era, there was too little evil in his heart.
But this knife really woke me up.
——Now we are living in the bloodiest decades in human history, with two wars that have shaken the world behind us.
The civilization at this time was still a bloody civilization.
Admiral Na Tong of the Nine Sects is a man who knows how to live very well. Like Prince Qing Yikuang, he always puts things aside, even if he is in a high position.
That's why the two of them were able to accumulate a lot of wealth on the one hand, and on the other hand they were able to get along well in the officialdom.
When the people in Beiyang came up with evidence to prove that Li Yu was wronged, Na Tong immediately distanced himself from the relationship and expressed that he had great respect for the emperor's master and would never instruct his subordinates to do such a thing! As for the subsequent investigation, he would
Let his subordinates fully cooperate with Tang Shaoyi.
Na Tonggui was very clever. He understood the relationship between Li Yu, Prince Qing's family and Beiyang Yuan Shikai, and he didn't want to wade into any muddy waters at all.
With the authorization from Admiral Jiumen, Tang Shaoyi assured Li Yu that he could return to Dongchang Hutong.
Of course he couldn't walk yet, so he had to let Zhao Qian pull him back.
After returning, Li Yu personally checked the car and found out that he had forgotten to refuel.
When Fengling found out, she caught Zhao Qian and beat him up, "You idiot, you almost killed me!"
Zhao Qian said innocently: "I don't know how to join. I haven't had time to ask the master yet."
Li Yu had no choice but to find a hose and show him what the siphon effect was.
Lu Bicheng helped Li Yu back to the bedroom. Li Yu felt very tired and had been a little nervous these past few days. After relaxing, he fell asleep.
More than two hours had passed when he woke up, and he saw Lu Bicheng sleeping on the edge of the bed with his arms on his head.
Li Yu carefully tiptoed out of bed. As soon as he put on his shoes, Lu Bicheng woke up and asked, "What do you want to do?"
Li Yu pointed to the gauze on the table opposite: "I want to change the dressing."
Lu Bicheng pinned him down on the bed: "Sit down and don't move!"
Then he picked up alcohol and gauze and said, "I'll do it!"
Li Yu was surprised: "Do you know how to care?"
Lu Bicheng said: "What is nursing? Isn't it just changing dressings? I will definitely do it!"
Li Yu said: "Otherwise, I'd better do it myself."
Lu Bicheng insisted: "When have you ever seen a patient take care of himself?"
Seeing her insistence, Li Yu could only say, "I'm sorry."
Then... took off his jacket, leaving only his underwear...
The location is indeed a bit special.
Lu Bicheng's face was also a little red, but she bit her lip and quickly removed the gauze from Li Yu, and then wiped the area around the wound with medicine.
There was no iodine, which was less irritating, so Li Yu's legs shrank in reflex.
Lu Bicheng said quickly: "Did it hurt you?"
Looking up at Li Yu, his eyes had to drift past things he shouldn't have seen. Li Yu felt a little sweaty on his forehead and said with a smile: "It doesn't hurt, but your hands are quite slippery..."
Lu Bicheng knew he was joking: "It hurts just because it hurts! When did you still have such a mouth, so..."
Lu Bicheng stopped talking and quickly changed the gauze for him, but his face became even redder.
Tang Shaoyi also came to Li Yu at this time to tell him the latest situation.
As soon as he entered the door, he saw Lu Bicheng's face was red and Li Yu was tying his belt.
Tang Shaoyi was surprised and said: "Brother Shucai, I admire you! You can be so lively and energetic even though your thigh is not convenient. It seems that you have recovered."
Li Yu said with a smile: "No matter what, it's just a change of dressing."
Lu Bicheng picked up the gauze she had replaced, not daring to look at them at all, and rushed out the door.
Tang Shaoyi sat on a chair and said to Li Yu: "I went to the Qing Post Office today."
Li Yu asked: "How?"
Tang Shaoyi said: "The postman named Cui was not there at all. When he was found, he was already dead."
Li Yu knew that the Japanese would definitely kill people and silence them, so he asked directly: "How did you die?"
Tang Shaoyi said: "Zuo Zuo said that he should have died of poisoning, but the symptoms of postman Cui's poisoning were very strange, and they were very similar to those of people who smoked excessively in the past. But in general, people who are poisoned by heavy cigarettes usually have chronic attacks, so quickly.
I have never seen anyone having an attack, and no heavy smoke was found at the scene.”
Tang Shaoyi took out a small bag from a package: "There are only some small glass fragments."
"Let me see."
Li Yu took the pieces of glass and after piecing them together, he quickly saw the word "heroin".
My heart immediately became a little clearer.
"So this is it!"
Tang Shaoyi asked: "Do you know?"
Li Yu nodded: "This is a drug many times more powerful than tobacco!"
Tang Shaoyi was shocked: "Poison!"
The Japanese are indeed ruthless and meticulous in their actions. Postman Cui probably didn't know what it was, so he overdosed and died in extreme happiness.
Li Yu sneered in his heart. The Japanese thought that almost no one in the capital had seen Heroin and they were unaware of it, but he knew it very well.
