Early the next morning, Yuan Su did not go out to participate in any activities. The recently scheduled press conference would not be until the day after tomorrow. He decided to take advantage of these two days to take a good rest and find another opportunity to meet with Lin Boshen. Fastest update
Novel [ ] The place Zheng Rucheng arranged for him to stay was in a small manor near the French Concession. More than a hundred soldiers who followed him all the way from Luanzhou were also staying nearby. Whether it was transportation or logistical support, they all
Everything is done.
Just after noon, Du Yu came to the room on the second floor where Yuan Su was located. The layout of the second floor was a hall, a large suite, a living room and two small rooms. The large suite also had a separate small hall and room.
and bedroom, Yuan Su naturally lived in a large suite. He had just finished washing, still wearing a nightgown, and came to the small hall of the suite to meet Du Zhuan.
"How did the thing I asked you to do yesterday go?" Yuan Su asked Du Yu as he picked up the breakfast milk that his servant had brought in not long ago and poured himself a glass of milk.
"I have already sent people to inquire. I have found information about the Lin family from the Shanghai Chamber of Commerce. I went there in person earlier today, just over Ningguo Road, Zhabei. But..." Du Yu said this, his expression changed.
Gradually he seemed a little hesitant.
"But what? I didn't see anyone or what happened?" Yuan Su asked.[]
"Yes, I did. I met Mr. Lin Renhou, the master of the Lin family, but I didn't see Mr. Lin. Mr. Lin told me about this in detail. A few days ago, the Lin family received a telegram from us to Luanzhou.
, Mr. Lin checked it in person. But after reading the telegram, Mr. Lin hired a car to go to Songjiang that night. He has not come back today and did not say why." Du Yu sighed and told the matter.
Said it out.
"How could this happen?" Yuan Su frowned slightly and couldn't help but be confused.
Based on his relationship with Lin Boxen, they had exchanged letters many times before. This time he finally went south from Luanzhou to Shanghai, and the other party should come to meet him as soon as possible. Why not only did he not reply to the message, but he also said:
He ran to Songjiang without saying a word. What does this mean?
He put down the milk glass in his hand and sat down on the small sofa in the living room, thinking a lot for a while.
Du Yu hesitated for a moment, then walked to the opposite side of the coffee table in front of Yuan Su, and said: "Captain, Mr. Lin did tell some things, but not only am I not sure, even Mr. Lin himself is not sure.
"
Yuan Su raised his head, glanced at Du Yu, and immediately asked: "What's the situation? Is there anything uncertain?"
Du Yu said: "Old Mr. Lin said that Mr. Lin often mentioned you, the governor, as a close friend of his classmate, but I don't know when, Mr. Lin's attitude towards you seemed to have changed all of a sudden. Not only did he no longer have anything to do with you,
He will immediately avoid news events related to you, or even when someone in the family mentions something related to you. [Thanks for supporting the novel] Maybe this time he suddenly left home for Songjiang has something to do with the changes during this period.
Relevance.”
The wrinkles between Yuan Su's brows became deeper and deeper, and he couldn't help but feel a little worried: Could it be that Lin Renqing was concerned about my relationship with the president?
For now, he had to admit that this was the most likely conjecture. On the night of the Luanzhou Uprising, when the revolutionaries instructed Lin Boxen to try to assassinate him, he kept saying that he had nothing to do with Yuan Shikai, even if
Even if he didn't say it directly, judging from the tone and wording at the time, it definitely meant this. Because of this, Lin Boxhen changed his mind in pain. Instead of killing him, he beat Sun Jiansheng to death in the end.
However, since Lin Boxen left the army and returned to Shanghai, his career in Luanzhou has been flying at a rapid pace. He has experienced so many things, and they must have been reported by newspapers in the north and south. Even if the previous news did not reach Shanghai,
But this time he went south to Shanghai to meet Song Jiaoren as the nephew of the president. The whole Jiangsu and Shanghai had already spread the news in advance. How could Lin Boxen not notice this.
Perhaps Lin Boxen believed that he had lied and deceived in order to survive, which not only caused Lin Boxen to accidentally kill a revolutionary, but also caused Lin Boxen's trust in himself to be extremely seriously questioned.
Du Yu waited for a while and saw that Yuan Su was silent, so he hesitantly said again: "Captain, Mr. Lin has told me Mr. Lin's residence in Songjiang. Do you think you should send someone to go there again?"
Going to Songjiang River?"
Yuan Su shook his head slowly and said: "No need, even if I want to go, I have to go in person."
Du Yu then asked: "What should we do now?"
Yuan Su thought for a while and said: "I can only ignore it for now. You can contact me in the afternoon to see if Mr. Song has returned to Shanghai. I want to meet Mr. Song as soon as possible.
If I can meet with Mr. Song this afternoon, I will go to Songjiang tomorrow morning. You can make arrangements."
Du Yu didn't ask any more questions, he answered neatly, then quickly turned around and went out to do something.
Regarding Lin Boxhen's situation, Yuan Su can only make guesses now, but he believes that he and Lin Boxhen have been through life and death, and they were once close classmates. As long as they can explain things clearly in person, they should still be able to resolve each other.
Misunderstanding. But then he had more worries in his heart. With a persistent and passionate radical young man like Lin Boxhen, what kind of reasons should he use to convince the other party?
After lunch, Yuan Su discussed with Chen Wenian the itinerary for the reception. Chen Wenian spent the whole day yesterday in the courtyard of Jiangnan Manufacturing Bureau with Zheng Rucheng and Cheng Dequan, two officials, to implement the reception work. Although due to the rush of time and the
The Kuomintang side did not communicate effectively, but it more or less formulated a draft.
Chen Wennian told Yuan Su that the official opening date of the first Congress was set for April 8. The congressmen from the south would leave for the north in three batches, while Song Jiaoren would first go to Beijing to meet with the congressmen in Beijing.
At the same time, we are preparing for the relevant political activities and arrangements of the Kuomintang in Beijing. Huang Xing specifically said before that since it is the north that takes the initiative to welcome Mr. Song to the north, the sooner the better, so as to express sincerity, because there is still some criticism from the outside world.
It was said that this reception was a cover-up, with the purpose of delaying Mr. Song's journey north to discuss national affairs with the congressmen in Beijing.
"After some discussion, a train is tentatively scheduled to leave for Nanjing on the evening of the 20th of this month."
"Oh... a train on the evening of the 20th? Wait, you said it was the 20th?" Yuan Su's expression suddenly changed, and he quickly asked Chen Wenian for confirmation.
