Monk Tongming came from the bottom of the mountain with news that the Japanese had made frequent moves in the past two days, and Japanese troops continued to enter Changchun. In addition, some Chinese people also came, initially estimated to be the old and young from the former Qing Dynasty. There were many Japanese.
A group of villa areas built by people have been vacated, and I don't know what to do with them.
Mu Yunchen thought for a while: "The Northeast was originally the land of Longxing in the Qing Dynasty. There should be no problem for this group of people to come back, but the Japanese's actions seem a bit strange."
Ma Xingkong said: "When we were in Japan, wasn't there something about Prince Pujie meeting the Japanese Emperor? It seems that the Manchu royal family and the Japanese have always been very close!"
Mu Yunchen nodded: "This matter cannot be underestimated, we must find out clearly!"
"Tell Shopkeeper Han that he must find out what these old and young people from the former Qing Dynasty are doing in Changchun?" Ma Xingkong ordered Long Jie.
Just as Long Jie left, Zou Kai wandered in. In his hand was a baggage with two layers, the inner layer of which was bright yellow. Zou Kai threw the baggage on the ground. Everyone looked at the stone a few times.
Asked: "What?"
Zou Kai said: "I just did a job at the foot of the mountain. I didn't need anything, but I was very concerned about this baggage. I wouldn't let it go, so I got it back."
Mu Yunchen took a look and already made a preliminary judgment in his mind. In the early Qing Dynasty, bright yellow could not be used by anyone. Only people from the royal family could use it. Not any royal family could use it, only those closest to the emperor could use it.
Those close to you can only use bright yellow after getting the emperor's approval.
Mu Yunchen opened the bag and found a dragon robe inside. There were beads, patches, hats, shoes and socks. This was an eye-opener for everyone. They had only heard of dragon robes before, but had never seen them before. This time
Whether it was true or not, it was an eye-opener. Shitou stretched out his hand to grab it, and it could be said that it was sparkling with gold. Nine dragons embroidered with gold thread were coiled around the clothes, lifelike.
"How did you get it?" Mu Yunchen asked hurriedly.
Zou Kai is a person who likes to be alone, so Ma Xingkong gave him absolute freedom. This morning, after Zou Kai got up, as before, he stepped on Yu Mu's heels and went down the mountain, walking around Bailong Ya
After walking around and finding nothing, he sat down on a big tree by the roadside to rest.
At this moment, a carriage gurgled over. The carriage was extremely ordinary, the same as those used by ordinary people. Zou Kai did not pay too much attention. If the driver just passed by like this, it would be fine. Maybe the driver was obsessed.
The car stopped in front of Zou Kai.
"Boy!" The driver pointed his riding crop at Zou Kai: "I want to ask you, how far is it from Changchun City?"
Zou Kai was stunned. He was from the capital. His accent was definitely not local, so he thought: "Why are you going to Changchun?"
"Stop talking nonsense and speak quickly!" the driver scolded, "I have something serious to do!"
Zou Kai nodded and pointed forward: "There is a fork in the road from here. Take the fork on the right and you can get there in half an hour!"
The driver didn't even say thank you, he whipped up his whip and drove away. Zou Kai smiled slightly, watched the carriage go away, and turned into the woods. The driver was obedient and turned to the right as Zou Kai said.
Little did they know that this was the road leading to Bailongya. The real road to Changchun was opposite to this road.
"Hey!" The driver pulled the reins and stopped the carriage: "Why did you run ahead of us? Did you use magic?"
Zou Kai didn't answer him and walked in slowly. The driver asked: "What do you want to do? We are the capital..."
Before he finished speaking, Zou Kai grabbed his neck and pierced his heart with a dagger: "I forgot to tell you, there are many bandits on this road, so be extra careful."
"Ah...!" A scream came from the carriage, and a man with a high-pitched voice slipped out of the carriage from behind and ran like crazy on the road, holding this bundle in his hand.
Looking at the few clothes in the bag, Ma Xingkong and Mu Yunchen looked at each other. Ma Xingkong said: "Brother Mu, I think it is necessary for us to go to Changchun again. I don't think this matter is that simple.
There must be some conspiracy between the Qing people and the Japanese!"
Mu Yunchen nodded: "I think so too. In my estimation, these guys in the former Qing Dynasty are still desperate and hope to restore the country with the help of the Japanese, but they don't even think about what the Japanese do. How can they sincerely
Help them?"
Early the next morning, Ma Xingkong led Mu Yunchen and Long Jie down to Bailongya and headed for Changchun. In the past few days, there were a lot of people coming in and out of Changchun City. The city was relatively loose and the defenses were not very good.
They relaxed a lot. Ma Xingkong and the others entered the city very smoothly. They did not rush to Tengyun Tower, but first found a teahouse to listen to the discussions on the street.
The favorite thing of Manchu nobles was to chat in the teahouse. When Ma Xingkong and others came in, there were already many people in the teahouse. A gentleman who talked about storytelling was spitting about "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms". I found a
A few people sat down in an inconspicuous corner. About ten minutes later, a man carrying a birdcage came through the door.
"Third Master, you're here!" The tea waiter hurriedly came up to greet the man. He first bowed down to the man and performed a formal invitation, then hurriedly took the bird and dragon and placed it on a reserved table at the front.
The third master nodded: "Good boy, you have some sharp eyesight." After saying this, he took out a silver dollar from his arms and threw it to the tea waiter: "Just like last time, the rest of the masters will reward you."
"Thank you, Third Master!" the tea waiter happily went down to prepare.
A few minutes later, another old man came in, wearing the same robe and mandarin jacket as the first one, with his hands behind his back. He stood at the door and glanced around. He walked to the third master's table and smiled: "You are so welcome.
Good morning!" After saying this, the two of them started chatting while listening to the book.
The third master asked: "Has the old man come? We are ready here. If the old man doesn't come, our work will be in vain!"
The old man smiled: "Don't worry, we have sent someone to invite you. They will definitely come. Just wait and be the main hall!"
"Hehehe..." The two of them laughed.
Ma Xingkong pursed his lips towards Mu Yunchen and glanced at the two of them. Mu Yunchen nodded. They drank all the tea in one gulp, paid the bill, and walked out of the teahouse. Ma Xingkong said: "It seems we
The speculation is true, these guys really want to be restored!"
"What should we do?" Long Jie asked.
Mu Yunchen said: "With the support of the Japanese, it is impossible to stop them. The Japanese have a good plan and found such an excuse for themselves to seize the Northeast. I think we can take advantage of it."
"How to use it?"
Mu Yunchen smiled: "If the restoration is successful, there will be two governments in the Northeast. As long as we can provoke conflicts between them, it will only be good for us and not harmful!"
