From the time of his arrest to today, Yuan Su has been under house arrest for more than ten days. Fortunately, he is entertained with good wine and food every day, and no one comes to harass him. His life here is pretty good. High-speed update [ ] is just in his heart
He is also worried that the situation outside will get out of control. Not only will he not be able to bring down Wu Chenglu, but he will also involve all his property. Because of this, his mental state is somewhat affected, and the whole person seems quite
A bit haggard.
After Wu Chenglu entered the door, he reluctantly put on a smiling face. He put on a warm gesture and said some nice things to Yuan Su. He also asked for help, apologized, and said it was a misunderstanding. Of course, he was just
Since Yuan Su is the military envoy and the president's nephew, there is no need to worry too much and he should simply handle the matter at hand as quickly as possible.
In the past ten days, Wu Chenglu had never been here, so when Yuan Su saw the other party's smiling face, he knew in his heart that his plan had worked and he would soon be free.
"Master Wu, you have detained me here for almost half a month, and now you say it was a misunderstanding. Well, I want to hear what the misunderstanding is." Yuan Su had a cold face and a low tone.
And said coldly.
"Oh my, Mr. Yuan, there was indeed an order from above. I hope that local officials like us can put more thought into cooperating with foreigners. Mr. Yuan had been going back and forth with people from Beidaihe before, and it was not accurate.
Some misunderstandings. During the past few days when Mr. Yuan was detained, I also ran around to conduct detailed investigations and verifications. I finally figured out the cause of the matter and made you innocent, Mr. Yuan." Wu Chenglu said in a decent manner.
The meaning of his words was as if he was personally helping Yuan Su to overturn his charges.
"Really? An order from above? Why is there such an order from above?" Yuan Su asked aggressively.[ ]
"I don't know about this matter. If you want to ask, you have to ask Special Envoy Zhao. It's really strange. There has been no news about Special Envoy Zhao for more than half a month, and I don't know where he is now." Wu Chenglu said, deliberately changing the subject.
.
"Master Wu, you and I are tacitly aware of what is going on in this matter. I won't tell you any nonsense. You have no reasonable reason to arrest a dignified military envoy. I tell you, I will definitely pursue it to the end.
Yuan Su said fiercely.
Wu Chenglu's face turned cold, and anger arose in his heart, but when he thought that he was in trouble, he had to endure it no matter what. Just as he thought at the beginning, Yuan Su dared to be so domineering and arrogant, not because
The other party is the nephew of the president and the military envoy of East Zhili. He has the capital to be domineering and arrogant.
He secretly suppressed this tone, with a smile still on his face, but his tone was not as enthusiastic as before, and said: "It's all a misunderstanding, why bother to retaliate? Haha, Mr. Yuan, why don't you come to see you today for him?
I just hope that I can resolve the dispute between you and Mr. Yuan. No, a telegram came from the capital yesterday, specifically explaining that what happened in Shanhaiguan has come to an end, and ordered me to arrange for Mr. Yuan to resign as commander-in-chief of disaster relief and return to Luanzhou today.
."
Yuan Su snorted coldly and said: "To resolve the dispute between you and me, you were ordered to resign and return to Luanzhou. Mr. Wu, you really have ulterior motives."
Wu Chenglu hurriedly said: "Master Yuan said this, what do you mean by ulterior motives? I just acted according to the rules. Now that the orders from above are written in black and white, Master Yuan no longer needs to worry about the disaster relief work here. I have already arranged it, tomorrow morning
There will be a train to send Master Yuan and his subordinates back to Luanzhou."
As he spoke, he took out the received telegram and handed it to Yuan Su for review.
Yuan Su read it quickly and expected that there would be no falsehood in this matter. [ ] On the surface, if he just accepted the central government's order and returned to Luanzhou, then all the efforts he had put in before would have been wasted. And even if he
If I want to leave, I am afraid that the Luanzhou gentry and the British Chamber of Commerce in Beidaihe will not agree. There are huge interests involved in this.
In other words, there is no way he would leave so easily.
However, if he disobeys the orders of the central government, it will inevitably have extremely bad consequences. You must know that Beijing has already issued special orders earlier. The waves are rising one after another, which will only make his impression on Beijing worse and worse.
Difference.
"Master Wu, since it is an order from Beijing, I naturally have to obey it. I can leave Linyu County early tomorrow morning, but I will take everything I brought with me."
"That's right, that's right, Lord Yuan's supplies will naturally belong to Lord Yuan." Seeing Yuan Su agreeing so readily, Wu Chenglu didn't think too much about the meaning of his words for a moment, and just agreed.
"I will take away all the 110,000 yuan for disaster relief I raised from Luanzhou before. Of the 110,000 yuan that has been spent, Mr. Wu, you have to make up for it for me." Yuan Su said with a serious expression.
He said in a meticulous tone.
"What? This...this, Mr. Yuan, I'm afraid it's not appropriate for you to do this." Wu Chenglu was dumbfounded. He just announced yesterday that he would increase the supply of porridge factories, and also said that he would organize a second batch of refugee evacuation. These are all necessary
A large amount of material expenses. The official treasury of the two counties under the jurisdiction of Shanhaiguan is not sufficient, otherwise they would not have been eager to invite Yuan Su to support. Most of the 70,000 yuan for disaster relief materials allocated by the central government was swallowed by Zhao Fangyu, and the remaining 2,000 yuan was swallowed up by Zhao Fangyu.
Five hundred shi of food was not enough to help.
Furthermore, he originally planned to use part of the money brought by Yuan Su for personal gain, and use the rest for disaster relief. One hundred and ten thousand is not a small number, and the central government will definitely allocate a second batch.
There is no need to spend all the relief materials on those unruly people outside the city.
"Hmph, these are the materials I prepared for disaster relief. Now the orders from above are clear. I will step down as Commander-in-Chief of Disaster Relief and be replaced by you, Mr. Wu. The responsibility for disaster relief will naturally be shouldered by you, Mr. Wu.
Why bother using my privately raised resources?" Yuan Su said without politeness at all.
"Master Yuan, what you said is really outrageous. Since Master Yuan said that this money is for disaster relief, now that the disaster situation is uncertain and civil unrest breaks out, it is the time to use the money. If Master Yuan takes it away,
I am at a loss for this 110,000 yuan. I hope Mr. Yuan can help me to the end and send the Buddha to the West. At worst, Wu will remember this favor and I will repay it if I find another opportunity in the future."
Wu Chenglu said quickly.
"It's really funny. You actually dare to talk to me now? I, Yuan Su, do things with integrity. Since I took office, I have never put disaster relief first. It's better for you. You just rely on one-sided words without any procedures and evidence.
You kidnapped me here in the middle of the night and held me here for more than ten days. Why should I buy your favor?" Yuan Su said angrily with an indignant face on his face.
"They say there is a misunderstanding in this. Mr. Yuan has a lot, why bother with me? Furthermore, Mr. Yuan does not need to speak so harshly. As the saying goes, a slap in the face can't make a difference, and everyone knows it." Wu Chenglu said to Yuan.
Su was very unhappy with his righteous and upright attitude from beginning to end. He gave Yuan Su a face, and it was fine that Yuan Su didn't appreciate it. Why bother pretending to be aloof? Because of this unhappiness, he was in the second half of the show.
There is an obvious sense of ridicule in the sentence.
"Okay, Mr. Wu has already said it tacitly, so I will open the skylight and speak out. I am raising this 110,000 yuan for disaster relief, just for a political achievement. Now you have taken this job, why should I?"
Do you still want to use my money to help you with your political achievements? In short, you don’t need to say anything. I will take away the remaining money, and I will record the money that has been used on your head. If you don’t pay it back for a day, I will.
I won't give up." Yuan Su said coldly.
Wu Chenglu really wanted to fall out with Yuan Su right away, but the other party was really aggressive, and he was not polite at all when he got an advantage. However, since he had chosen to swallow his anger at the beginning, there was no need to make trouble at this time. He secretly made plans in his mind
After all, I will arrange the itinerary for Yuan Su and his party tomorrow anyway, and send Yuan Su and his people away first, so the payment can be deliberately delayed.
"It seems that Mr. Yuan still has a deep misunderstanding of me. Alas, let's not talk about it for now. I will hold a banquet at my house tonight, specially to apologize to Mr. Yuan, and at the same time, it can be regarded as a farewell party for Mr. Yuan. That's it.
How are you?" Wu Chenglu turned around and said.
"Humph, I deserve this banquet. If Master Wu is fine, can I leave here now?" Yuan Su deliberately agreed to Wu Chenglu's banquet, just to lower the other party's alertness.
Wu Chenglu pondered for a while, thinking that the central government had ordered Yuan Su to return to Luanzhou, not to mention that several of his battalions were now in the city, and they still surrounded Yuan Su's first regiment. Even if Yuan Su had some evil intentions,
His plan could not cause any trouble. What's more, if Yuan Su really wanted to take the opportunity to retaliate, he would not be able to explain it to his superiors!
"Haha, this is natural, this is natural. I will prepare the banquet at seven o'clock tonight. Mr. Yuan can now return to the camp to rest and prepare. It will be somewhat rushed to set off tomorrow, so please be patient with Mr. Yuan." Wu Chenglu
Said with a smile.
"Thank you." Yuan Su said coldly, then stood up and walked outside.
Wu Chenglu also stood up and accompanied him out of the side courtyard. He immediately ordered his subordinates to release the guards and staff who had been arrested with Yuan Su. At the same time, he prepared three carriages and sent these people out of the gate of the office.
