Late that night, Zhang Jiangong staggered into the Biaobu barracks with the support of several subordinates. He was shouting something inarticulately as he walked, causing the soldiers on patrol to look here frequently. .
In the evening, at the dinner party held in Tingfeng Xiaozhu, Zhang Jiangong drank happily with the wealthy gentry and celebrities of Luanzhou. The fine wine and food at the dinner were things he had never eaten in his life, and there were even some dishes he had never seen before. It was not easy. Given such an opportunity, and I don’t know if there will be another such opportunity in the future, it is natural to drink as much as possible and eat as much as possible.
Originally, the dinner party had ended around eight o'clock, and many guests were leaving one after another. Only Zhang Jiangong and a group of his subordinates refused to leave, and they added wine and food five times in total. None of the congressmen and gentry could persist until the end. Even Wang Zhongyuan had to leave quietly when it was nine o'clock. Before leaving, he told Tingfeng Xiaozhu to keep the accounts first and send someone to settle the accounts tomorrow morning.
In this way, Zhang Jiangong and a group of his men continued to eat and drink until ten o'clock, and even packed up a lot of food and wine before heading back home with unfinished content.
After returning to the Biaobu compound, all the subordinates originally thought that Zhang Jiangong would go directly back to the dormitory to sleep. Little did they know that as soon as they passed by the barracks, he was clamoring to go to the custody room. After some attempts to dissuade him failed, everyone had no choice but to help him. Zhang Jiangong went to the barracks and went up the stairs to the standard custody room on the second floor.
As soon as he walked into the prison door, Zhang Jiangong suddenly pushed away the two men who were supporting him, stumbled to the desk and sat down. The previous nagging suddenly disappeared, and he just kept breathing heavily. His eyes were staring straight in one direction as if in a daze.
Most of the confidants around him were a little drunk, but no one dared to take it lightly in order to accompany Zhang Jiangong. Everyone had been following Zhang Jiangong for a whole day, and they all knew what happened in the afternoon. Zhang Jiangong was on the mahjong table. I lost a lot of money, and in the end because I owed too much gambling money, no one wanted to sit with me at the same table anymore, which led to some embarrassing situations.
When the dinner started, the members of the Consultative Bureau even arranged to sit in an outer seat because of this incident.
Anyone who encounters this situation will feel irritated and angry, not to mention Zhang Jiangong is still the agent of 79 Standards after all!
After a period of silence, Team Wang brought a cup of hot tea from the tea room outside and walked up to Zhang Jiangong. He cautiously said, "Sir, drink some tea to sober up and feel more comfortable when you rest later."
Zhang Jiangong took the teacup in a sullen voice, and just brought it to his mouth to take a sip. He didn't know if it was because he was accidentally burned, but he became furious without warning and threw the teacup to the ground. .The flying debris and hot water hit the two officers, and the two officers quickly shrank back.
"Who are they? How dare they treat me like this!"
Zhang Jiangong knew very well that the people in Tingfeng Xiaozhu today were all important people with status and background, so even if he was treated coldly at that time, he did not dare to vent it easily and could only bear it in his heart.
But now that I have returned to the Biao Department, and I am drunk with alcohol, the long-suppressed emotions in my heart suddenly burst out like a dam bursting.
"He's a nainai, doesn't he just have some bad money? Huh, if you offend me, I'll shoot him." He roared angrily, and under the dual stimulation of emotion and alcohol, his forehead even bulged.
There are obvious blue veins.
However, the other subordinates present knew very well that their Lord Zhang was just venting his frustrations. If he really had the courage to use a knife or a gun, he would have done it at that time.
"Sir, please calm down. Why bother to be as knowledgeable as these people? You won't do anything wrong." Team Wang quickly stepped forward to comfort him.
"Yes, yes, these old men are ignorant of the truth and look down on others. If anything happens to their families, don't come to our new army to solve it."
"What I'm saying is, we want to see who will protect their safety in the future if they offend our Lord Zhang."
Under the leadership of Wang Duizheng, other officers joined in with their voices.
But everyone really couldn't find any words of comfort, and it became more and more awkward to talk about it. Everyone present knew very well that if there was any trouble in Luanzhou again, these gentry and bureaucrats would never come to Zhang.
Merit, because in the eyes of these people there is already another candidate who is more trustworthy and respected.
Zhang Jiangong listened to the consolation from his close confidants. Although he was uneducated, he had a lot of insight. The reason why he was losing his temper at this moment was not just because of the cold treatment by the Luanzhou gentry. From the morning ceremony of the establishment of the Consultative Bureau to
During lunch and the banquet in the evening when Yuan Su was not present, he could already clearly feel Yuan Su's aura stepping on his head.
Although he and Yuan Su were neck and neck in terms of seating position, this was already a kind of transgression. In any case, he was Yuan Su's boss. In addition, when talking to those gentry and celebrities, almost everyone regarded him as Yuan Su.
He was centered, flattering and flattering, and he didn't take him seriously at all. At lunches and dinners, people frequently came to toast Yuan Su, but he was forgotten as if he was a ball of air.
Of course he knew that the reason behind all this was that Yuan Su was Yuan Shikai's nephew, and even he had to be respectful to Yuan Su many times. However, it was precisely because of the superior status of the other party that he felt even more jealous and unacceptable.
, why don’t you have a relative of a big shot?
He had already begun to struggle with this issue in the past few days. The more he couldn't think about it, the more he thought about it, so that he quickly turned from jealousy to suspicion.
It has been some time since Yuan Su came to Seventy-nine Biao as a trainee. From being stationed outside the customs to being transferred to the customs to participate in the autumn cao, in three months, no one took Yuan Su seriously at all. Even if
Yuan Su himself flaunted everywhere, claiming that he was related to Yuan Gongbao, but not many people believed it at the time. It seemed that only Biaotong Yue Zhaolin was a little polite to him.
However, Yue Zhaolin was very polite to all his subordinate officers. Zhang Jiangong had served him for so many years, and of course he knew that this was his usual way of winning people over. Anyway, being polite didn't cost money.
Yuan Su's true glory came after the Luanzhou Uprising. On the one hand, the identity of Yuan Shikai's nephew suddenly spread due to the advice of Wang Huaiqing, the commander-in-chief of Tongyong Town; on the other hand, the Seventy-nine Biaobiao Division was severely damaged.
Dozens of officers, including Biaotong Yue Zhaolin, were all killed in battle, so this trainee officer was turned into a full officer.
Zhang Jiangong never dreamed that Yuan Su, who had always kept a low profile outside the customs, would turn into a popular young master in the blink of an eye. This contrast is really unbelievable.
But Yuan Su did get a reply from Yuan Shikai. This telegram was forwarded from Tangshan Headquarters. There was no possibility of fraud. How else could he deny this fact?
For Zhang Jiangong, he knew very well that he could not shake this fact, but he still persisted in a suspicion deep in his heart.
Seeing Yuan Su expanding his power day by day within the Seventy-nine Biao, how could he not react as the acting Biaotong? But he didn't even dare to get angry openly, so what else could he do to Yuan Su?
"His grandma's Yuan Su, it's all Yuan's fault that I'm being humiliated today! In his eyes, am I still the 79th standard standard? Am I still the boss of this bitch?" After some complicated thinking, Zhang Jiangong
Yin couldn't help but burst out, directing his anger towards Yuan Su.
The other officers in the custody room were all startled. Before, Zhang Jiangong was cursing the members of the Consultative Bureau. Why did he suddenly blame Yuan Su after a period of silence? However, it didn't take long for some of them to gradually realize that it was obvious that
It was because the words of comfort just now were inappropriate, which made Mr. Zhang unconsciously think of Yuan Su.
Everyone was in embarrassment for a while. In any case, Yuan Su was a person with status and background, and now the opponent still had a lot of power in Luanzhou. It was too late for these small characters to please him, so how could they dare to offend the opponent?
Everyone, you look at me, I look at him, no one knows how to speak at this time.
Finding that these close confidants were suddenly silent, Zhang Jiangong quickly realized the reason. He was drunk now, but not so drunk that he was unconscious.
Immediately, he smashed the table angrily and screamed at everyone: "You little slaves, I usually treat you very well, what kind of good thing have you been short of? What did the man named Yuan give you?"
Good thing, now you are all turning towards this bastard! Good thing, I don’t care about his nainai. Since you want to be a bastard with the man named Yuan, I won’t stop you, just go and expose him.
!”
Everyone present suddenly changed their expressions, and they quickly explained, comforted, and followed Zhang Jiangong's words and scolded Yuan Su.
