Now, the rural brave outside the city has become a climate, and Huang Zonghan has also accepted the post of governor of Guangdong and Guangxi. If you really need a scapegoat, it must be Bai Gui. You can imagine that once the day comes after the war, those officials in Guangdong will definitely not hesitate to throw him out as the governor, and I am afraid that any dirty charges will be added to him, and a traitor will not escape.
Even if Xiang Yong wins this battle and regains Guangzhou, Bai Gui feels that his situation will not be much better. First, there are still people who need to be responsible for the occupation of Guangzhou. If a Ye Mingchen is not enough, he will have to sink in. Second, how many people are watching him as governor? I’m afraid many people want him dead when he falls, especially those civil servants who have made meritorious deeds in regaining Guangzhou are more likely to hope that he will fall. If those people impeach him with rehabilitation, Bai Gui will be dead.
Suo Baigui is eager to be accepted by the civil servants outside the city these days, but the resistance to him outside the city is getting deeper and deeper. Not only do the three opposition squires respect him, but even the two counties of Nanhai and Panyu, who worked together in the past, have avoided him for fear of not returning Baigui according to his eyes outside the city. There is reason to think that an anti-Baigui group has emerged outside the city.
When he learned that the emperor had sent an imperial envoy, Bai Gui had a secret talk with foreigners once, telling them that he needed to go out of the city to meet the imperial envoy first. He was afraid that the imperial envoy would see these civil servants’ regiments first, which would be bad for him. As a result, foreigners did not believe that Bai Gui did not let him out of the city.
Therefore, although Bai Gui was cautious, he had to take risks. He immediately sent someone to Lian Zhu Jinglun just by relying on a guess. He was worse than Lin Fuxiang because his situation was so much worse than Lin Fuxiang.
Zhu Jinglun understood all this from Lin Zhuang’s mouth, and from time to time he spied out that some township militia groups outside the city were dissatisfied with Baigui, but Zhu Jinglun hesitated again. He wooed Baigui because he thought that such a high-ranking person might have a great influence on the civilian corps outside the city, but now it seems that Baigui is so urgent that I’m afraid it’s too bad for the civilian corps outside the city, so if he comes forward, it will be counterproductive.
However, it is also hesitant. Even if you are down and out, the role of Bai Gui is better than mastering resources in your own hands. Most of them always have a place to be quiet, and it is also your own contacts and strength.
So he smiled and raised a glass, "If the governor’s adult patronizes me, I will be willing to do whatever it takes."
Fu Li inquired again, "I wonder when Lord Lin and Lord Huang are going to attack the city?"
Zhu Jinglun shook his head and said, "The adults don’t know anything now."
This sentence is reasonable. I don’t know what Bai Gui will think. Maybe he will think that Zhu Jinglun still doesn’t believe him.
Fu Li is also white, otherwise he can’t do this kind of conspiracy. Stop asking questions, stop persuading people to drink, and order a table of good dishes. Did they have a good time?
After saying goodbye to Fuli, Zhu Jinglun has a hidden worry in his heart. Zhang Qian Shan’s family seems to be involved in his own affairs too deeply. This is something that can’t be helped. Because he appeared in Zhang Jiagen’s law and concealed the Zhang family, Zhang Qian Shan’s banquet for himself has also shown great interest in regaining Guangzhou. This time, his behavior was exposed because of the Zhang family’s own death hole. Zhu Jinglun couldn’t help but consider erasing this death hole.
If you want to block Zhangjiakou, you have to kill people or let the Zhang family get satisfied. Maybe you really have to drag the Zhang family in and let Zhang Qian Shan get a piece of this. Zhu Jinglun doesn’t care that he cares about letting Zhang Qian Shan come in before he is installed, but now it seems that the Zhang family has been involved. Maybe you really have a good talk with Zhang Qian Shan again.
But before he had to deal with something urgent, he had to meet Hou Jin and Lin Zhuang first. He had to know something else as soon as possible. After Parkes was arrested, he was completely blind and didn’t know anything.
Section 30 Save people
Come to whatever you want. I just thought about the Zhang family, and then someone invited me.
Or to beg yourself.
Their young master was caught by foreigners
And their master has already left Zhang Yong, so there is no great wisdom. A little clever concubine Cui Yun is not as good as Zhang Yong at this time. So Zhang Yong can find Zhu Jinglun. In his opinion, Zhu Jinglun is the only person he knows who can speak in front of foreigners.
Zhu Jinglun asked Zhang Yong about his master again. Zhang Yong said that his master confessed when he left. If Zhu Jinglun wants to find him, he can always leave Qian Shan at home and his cronies can always go to Nanxiong to deliver letters to him.
Zhu Jinglun, the master of Zhang’s family, was completely upset because, in his view, Zhang Pan was just a rogue brother. This time, he was arrested by foreigners, but he didn’t have the guts to attack foreigners. It was only because of the accident in Yuexiang Building that he still stayed in Yuexiang Building. Later, both men and women in the building were caught by foreigners and went to the yamen. Now all the suspects are being interrogated one by one.
Zhu Jinglun dealt with Zhang Yong at random and went to the secret meeting place with Linzhuang. As a result, Linzhuang was not here and people didn’t know the situation. He said that Linzhuang had not returned to the city since the foreigners imposed martial law, but he said that they could go at any time if Zhu Jinglun needed it.
Judging from the attitude of these spies, Zhu Jinglun feels that he is very important to Lin Fuxiang’s regiment now. Before that, these people were not so respectful. Obviously, it can’t be because of Parkes’s incident. Judging from their tone, they are not quite sure that Parkes was arrested because Lin Fuxiang did such an important thing. Lin Fuxiang was very secretive.
Lin Zhuang’s absence is probably due to the fact that the main participant who held Parkes hostage that day was Lin Zhuang, the man who sneaked into the Muqin room to mix up Parkes and then drove the carriage to run away. He was a good man and a fine Lin Fuxiang relative, which was the most dangerous and crucial thing for Lin Fuxiang to ask him to do.
Told the spy to inform Lin Zhuang that he wanted to meet him as soon as possible, and then Zhu Jinglun immediately rushed to another place. He made an appointment with Hou Jin for a restaurant.
This restaurant is located near Guangfu Xuegong and Emperor Temple, not far from South Gate, and outside South Gate is the British-French Allied Camp of Guangzhou Xiezhen Military Camp.
The first thing to see Hou Jin is to hear some news from him, and the most important thing is to ask about the progress of his plan to rebel against the enemy.
Yes, in Zhu Jinglun’s arrangement for Hou Jin, in addition to letting him stare at the Yuexiang Building, the most important one is to win over the traitors of the British and French allied forces. The second one has become the main part of Hou Jin with Lin Fuxiang’s intervention in Yuexiang Building.
Hou Jin has an advantage in wooing this point because Hou Jin is a scholar who happens to be employed by the British and French allied forces.
The so-called Xumin is a group of people who live in water-poor families. There are many civilian boats in the Pearl River outside Guangzhou. Most Xumin live in these boats. This is a quite large group. The new york Times once reported that their reporter estimated that there are 10,000 civilian boats with five people living in each boat. There are 40,000 people in the Guangzhou Xumin group who are under the jurisdiction of the China government. There is no corresponding statistics.
Of course, just as the French priest N estimated that Guangzhou has a population of 10,000 at this time, there are 40,000 Xumin, which may be exaggerated, but there are still 100,000 Xumin, who are really embarrassed. There are many women engaged in illegal business, and they were the main smugglers of opium in China long before the First Great Smog War. In the war, they helped foreigners to find out information and make profits with the help of familiar people’s feelings. It is not important that foreigners should recruit some fugitives from so many poor Xumin.
At this time, the British and French allied forces moved their forces. According to Zhu Jinglun’s information from Indian soldiers, "there is a European legion with one person, two local legions with two people, and a five-person police force with three French troops." This European army includes those Indian soldiers who have received European military training and are commanded by the British.
Zhu Jinglun wants to draw in what Indian soldiers call "two local legions", that is, a traitor army of about two people, most of whom are intellectuals, which is convenient for Hou Jinli to contact them with his status advantage.
These people have gone with the British only because of the money. It is normal for the British to rebel. Therefore, they are regarded as coolies. They have no weapons and shoulder poles. However, since the main force of the British-French Coalition forces went north, Guangzhou’s forces have been tight. Many of these people have been incorporated into the police force. Six people have been patrolling the suburbs for a long time, and seven people have exchanged fire. The Qing army has single knives and spears.
The only thing that needs to be dealt with is that Zhu Jinglun, a British officer in this coolie corps, wants to buy some outlaws and assassinate these officers. Then even if these two thousand people can’t win over by themselves, they will become the leader of the group. Trying to create some chaos can greatly weaken the British and French Coalition forces’ defense of Guangzhou.
However, Hou Jin said that he had contacted several intellectuals, and the other party was willing to rebel, but the price was high.
"Two hundred and twenty-two thousand silver is really too high. Aren’t they afraid to spend their lives?"
Hou Jinlian joined four intellectuals leaders who have their own clique in the coolies, just as Sikhs have their own organizations in the army, but they also have their own clique in the coolies, but it is not a religion, but a popular gang among the intellectuals. Nearly a hundred of the four men who claimed to be the leading players kowtowed to their brothers, and they expressed their willingness to help buy spies in the coolies and assassinate all foreign officers at the critical moment.
But it’s really hard to ask for 22 thousand
Zhu Jinglun replied, "Tell them that there are no more than 52,000, so they are willing to do it or not. Tell them that if they don’t cooperate, even if they go to the ends of the earth, someone will settle accounts with them. You can play a court banner."
Zhu Jinglun believes that Hou Jin is very good at this kind of intimidation and inducement. The intellectuals are not easy to manage the government and are not willing to manage it. The big reason is that they live in the water and are more United, just as the later governments are not willing to manage the northwest nationalities.
But it’s not that you can’t live in the water or in the sky. Although the boat is more flexible than the house, you can always find money if you really want it.
At this time, Hou Jin hesitated. He really wanted to accomplish this and make a fortune, but he had some conscience problems because he didn’t want Zhu Jinglun to die because of this.
After thinking for a long time, he decided to give up "Zhu Er, don’t worry about it, you still run. Lord Lin shouldn’t blame you."
Hou Jin has been Zhu Jinglun still working for Lin Fuxiang, and of course Zhu Jinglun told him that he had no doubt.
See Hou Jin expression and tone Zhu Jinglun also can’t help wondering.
"What’s the matter?"
Hou Jin just told the whole story, "You told me to keep an eye on that Mr. Fang and got caught!"
Fangshan was arrested? What does this have to do with Zhu Jinglun?
Of course, there are reasons why foreigners may find some doubts about Zhu Jinglun from Fangshan. Who knows what foreigners will do at this tense moment?
This news made Zhu Jinglun feel dangerous, because he knew very well that foreigners were very worried. Guangzhou officials had planted many spies in their Guangzhou city. They all suspected that there were some spies outside the city in China’s translation, otherwise they wouldn’t end up short of money, because the most important and secret things were always handed over to those foreigners who had a small number of translators. Otherwise, foreigners could recruit a large number of unsuccessful people from Guangzhou to help them.
Foreigners are suspicious and convinced that there are China spies around them. I don’t know who it is. If that Fangshan talks nonsense, it is likely that Zhu Jinglun will come out from the real evidence. Fangshan can’t come out, of course, but he wants to tell foreigners that Zhu Jinglun followed Parkes to Yuexiang Building three times before he was hijacked in Parkes. Foreigners will definitely doubt Zhu Jinglun’s body, even if they are not sure. Now they are like a frightened bird. Who knows if they will overdo it? They would rather kill one thousand wrong than let one go.
Zhu Jinglun is not worried that foreigners will kill themselves, because if foreigners doubt themselves at this time, I’m afraid it’s not convenient to do a lot of things behind them.
However, Hou Jin can say these words to himself. Zhu Jinglun still has some feelings in his heart. Although Hou Jin is a scum, this article of loyalty has not changed.
Patted Hou Jin on the shoulder. "Don’t worry, I’m fine. Don’t live here, change places and find a way to tell me."
After that, I told Hou Jin something, and then I left the restaurant in a hurry. It will be dark if I don’t leave.
Hou Jin’s feedback made Zhu Jinglun have to revise some plans again, because that Fangshan is another thunder outside the Zhang family, and another thunder will explode at any moment. At this time, just two thunder also bumped into each other. At the thought of finding something for the Zhang family housekeeper, Zhu Jinglun knew that he should not get involved in a troublesome thing. He had to find a way to save people.
Section 39 Suspect
Zhu Jinglun went to Hurd directly without going around to save people.
He is not afraid to expose anything because he has a good reason that he is a relative of the Zhang family or Hurd personally confirmed it at the beginning.
Because he is a relative of the Zhang family, he has enough reason to ask Hurd for a favor and let the British and French Coalition forces release Master Zhang first.
But his purpose is not to save this loser, but to save Fangshan’s fortune teller.
Master Zhao is just a starting point for him. He wants to find a way to intervene in the judicial trial of the occupation Committee to find out how much information they got from Fangshan that is not good for them.
"Mr. Hurd, I assure you that my cousin Zhang Pan is a slut. How can he have anything to do with the bandits outside the city? He has lived in Yuexiang Building for five or six years. How can he have anything to do with the kidnapping of Mr. Parkes?"
Hurd came to the door just after class today.
After listening to Zhu Jinglun’s request, Hurd sighed, "Mr. Zhu, please forgive me for not being able to do it. I have no power to interfere in the judicial process. At present, the case is tried by British military judges, and I have no power and no reason to interfere."
Zhu Jinglun said, "Mr. Hurd, let me meet my cousin. His family is worried. I can give an explanation to my relatives when I meet him."
Hurd still shook his head. "I can’t do this because Zhang Pan is a major suspect now."

Obviously, the civil service training regiment outside the city no longer believes in him or has abandoned him, just like the Guangdong bureaucracy abandoned Ye Mingchen a few months ago. After Ye Mingchen was captured by the British and French Coalition forces, most officials impeached Ye Mingchen and pushed the blame of Guangzhou to Ye Mingchen.
