Reason is still chaotic

Duan Zhicheng was busy for a few days, and he really invited a large number of people to hold a big banquet in a restaurant in the Japanese Concession.Shen Jiali usually seldom gets the limelight among these drinking and meat friends, but now he has a purpose in mind, so he doesn't hesitate to spend money, and his actions are extraordinarily generous.As for the outside world, they claimed that the banquet was held jointly by Duan and Chen - because Duan Zhicheng had more face and could invite many distinguished guests.

At the banquet, Shen Jiali greeted and laughed with those old Japanese acquaintances with a smile on his face.The Japanese knew that he was a orphan, and his parents had positions in the former Qing court and the Beiyang government, so they held him in high regard.The two sides were chatting and laughing happily, and they were in harmony. At this very moment, there was another stream of guests coming, and the leader of the group was actually Ma Tianlong!

It turned out that when the battle started, Ma Tianlong was timid and wanted to preserve his strength, so he fled quietly into the mountains, wanting to wait and see.Unexpectedly, before he gained a firm foothold, a large number of puppet troops and Japanese troops began to enter the mountains to suppress bandits, targeting scattered troops like him.He stayed up for more than ten days. He was really afraid of death, and his life was hard. There was neither a restaurant nor a brothel around him, and he couldn't eat enough to sleep; The compilation has passed.

He felt ashamed at first, and felt that he had no seed, and he was not considered a man.However, after returning to Tianjin for a few days of carnival, his red heart gradually became callused, and he became increasingly insensitive, and occasionally complacent and self-conscious—because he is indeed living a good life with good food and drink, Peace and happiness.

In order to win over the power, Shen Jiali did not use the celebrity faction of the past, and was very perfunctory to everyone, especially knowing that Ma Tianlong still had military power, so he got up and walked over to shake hands with him.Ma Tianlong hadn't seen him for a long time, and he was very happy to meet him now. He held his hand and smiled and said, "Okay, we are lucky to meet again! How are you?"

Shen Jiali smiled and lowered his head: "Oh, so-so, where is Mr. Ma?"

Ma Tianlong thought about it seriously, and then replied: "Me? Me too...it's okay!"

Shen Jiali knew that this was a rough man, and he couldn't say anything interesting, so he turned around and led him to the seat, Ma Tianlong was still polite: "Oh, I don't dare to take it, you sit on your own, don't worry about me , I can find a place myself!"

Shen Jiali smiled and ignored him, and pushed him to the table to sit down.Ma Tianlong turned sideways and stood up: "Mr. Shen, please don't see me..."

Shen Jiali saw him as if he had eaten a spring, he was quite big and swayed back and forth, and he refused to sit down safely, so he put his hands on his shoulders, and pressed down involuntarily: "Please sit down...don't move ...Mr. Ma, don't move..."

As soon as this remark came out, the others couldn't help laughing when they heard it.Ma Tianlong himself thought it was funny, he laughed along with everyone, and sniffed at the same time, feeling that Shen Jiali's fragrance was very attractive—nowadays, most modern young gentlemen pay attention to the scent of taking care of themselves; Ma Tianlong Tianlong is not the kind of person who has never seen the world, so he just took a deep breath at this moment, and did not make a joke out of it.

Shen Jiali finally pushed Ma Tianlong down, and was about to return to his seat, when Duan Zhicheng suddenly came in from outside, he stretched out his hand to take him aside without saying a word, and said in a low voice, "Nie Renxiong is here."

Shen Jiali was very surprised: "You invited him too?"

Duan Zhicheng bent slightly, and put his lips close to his ear: "Take this opportunity, let's get to know each other, so that we can talk in the future, isn't that good? Let me tell you, the Japanese are now the ones who praise the Beiyang government the most. Elder, with the reputation of your old man back then, you can be regarded as a person with political capital. Whether you want to go further is up to you; but you might as well broaden your horizons now, anyway, it doesn’t matter if you make friends first.”

Shen Jiali took it for granted, thinking that there was a reason in his sincere mind during this period.As Duan Zhicheng left the crowded hall, he walked all the way to the hotel entrance.

He just had a drink, and his head and face were a little feverish. Now that he was blown by the cold wind of this autumn night, he shivered while enjoying himself.Looking ahead, he saw three black cars coming to a slow stop end to end, with heavily armed guards standing on the pedals outside the doors. The momentum was majestic and menacing, and he thought about it. He understood that Nie Renxiong It's a good show.

At this time, the guard from the first car jumped down and opened the door with a blank expression.Duan Zhicheng walked forward first, laughed happily and said loudly: "Commander Nie, it's so late!"

There was no response from inside the car.

After a while, a cane stretched out and tentatively touched the ground.The guard next to him leaned over and got into the car, and dragged out a tall man.The man was dressed in a suit, with broad shoulders and long legs. He had a handsome figure, and a top hat was crookedly buttoned on his head. When the lights on the side of the road shone down, he looked dignified and heroic. He was only in his thirties. , was actually a handsome young man.

Taking off his top hat with one hand and handing it to the guards beside him, and leaning on his cane with the other to stand firm, Commander Nie Renxiong turned to Duan Zhicheng and replied very kindly: "Master Duan, don't blame me for being late, I came directly from Beiping. "

Duan Zhicheng made a surprised expression: "Hey, you went to Peking again? Alas, if I knew this, I wouldn't bother you to make this trip!"

Nie Renxiong shook his head and said with a smile: "You are too cynical about working or not. Other people's dinners are fine, but you, Uncle Duan's, I must praise."

Duan Zhicheng and him were nothing more than hypocrisy. After exchanging pleasantries, he turned around and waved to Shen Jiali. As a middleman, he made an introduction for both parties.After hearing Shen Jiali's background, Nie Renxiong suddenly paused for a moment, then asked with a smile, "I have a staff officer under my command named Shen Zijing, who is your nephew, right?"

Shen Jiali hesitated for a moment, then nodded and said, "It's my nephew."

Nie Renxiong continued to ask with interest: "I heard that he burned your house down two days ago?"

Shen Jiali thought about it and replied: "Oh, housework is messy and it's hard to explain it in one word. Commander Nie, please."

Nie Renxiong turned to the front and started walking with a limp on his cane.Shen Jiali followed behind, looking up at his back, and suddenly felt that his facial features looked a bit like Ge Xiaodong.

I don't know what Ge Xiaodong's situation is now, maybe life or death is uncertain.It's a pity, pitiful, for a very good person to be beaten into such a bad state.

Shen Jiali is a person who is prone to low self-esteem, so he has always maintained a far-sighted attitude towards Ge Xiaodong, who is a first-rate man, without thinking about it at all.

Nanie Renxiong had a high status and was introduced into the private room to sit with the Japanese.Shen Jiali sat down beside him, and after listening to Nie Renxiong talk about his leg injury with the former businessman and now Zhongzuo Xingfu Jiro, he realized that his right leg had been shot by an assassin a while ago.Shen Jiali made arrangements without saying a word, poured wine and served Nie Renxiong, his expression was very pleasant, but he felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, thinking to himself if it wasn't for Shen Zijing, that white-eyed wolf who wanted to eat my flesh, why should I Spending money and effort to serve these things!

Nie Renxiong talked with the Japanese, and suddenly found that Duan Zhicheng was missing, so he turned to Shen Jiali who was beside him, looked at him and said with a smile, "You are a little uncle!"

Shen Jiali took a look at him, and answered in a serious manner, "I am four years older than Zijing."

Nie Renxiong raised his eyebrows, and felt that Shen Jiali's eyes just now had some malicious intentions - it was a flash, which was especially worth pondering.

"Grand Xi also mentioned this matter to me." He continued, "Shen Zijing's behavior is indeed excessive and disrespectful!"

Shen Jiali knew that Master Duan's character was "Xi Xian", and now he was honored as Xi Gong when he went to the outside world.He didn't expect Duan Zhicheng to be able to move his father, so he was a little surprised, but he didn't want to show it on his face: "Commander Nie, to tell you the truth, I don't have the strength to move people in the military. Competing. My nephew came to my house when he was sixteen or seventeen years old. I watched him grow up. Later... I have no shame to say what he did later. In the past year, how many days have I not missed him? I didn’t expect that he would come back and burn down my house after he had a future. How dare I act as his elder now? As long as I can keep the little bit of property left , thank God!"

Nie Renxiong always thought that Shen Zijing was a good person, a man worth cultivating, but he didn't expect that Shen Jiali's description would turn him into a wolf-hearted villain.

He didn't really trust Shen Jiali, he had his own ideas.He lowered his eyes and nodded with a smile: "Okay, Mr. Shen, don't worry too much. I'll reprimand him when I go back and stop him from messing around again, that's all."

After hearing this, Shen Jiali slowly picked up the wine bottle and filled the glass in front of Nie Renxiong: "Commander Nie, I thank you in advance."

The banquet didn't end until midnight.Nie Renxiong's guard was not around, Shen Jiali saw him standing staggeringly, so he took the initiative to support him, and helped him out of the hotel and onto the car.Nie Renxiong thought he had good intentions, so he naturally wanted to thank him, but he didn't know that Shen Jiali had a mentality of taking advantage, and there was another kind of fun in it.After watching Nie Renxiong's car team leave, he raised his hand and sniffed his fingers, and immediately put the man behind him.

He and Duan Zhicheng broke up at the entrance of the hotel and went home by car.Sitting alone in the back seat, he sighed in his heart: "The long speech on my side is probably not as good as Xi Gong's fart! I was burned down by someone, and I was running around like a dog in a hurry, but With Nie Renxiong, it's just a matter of one sentence. I'm really living a worse life every day!"

He leaned forward, threw himself on the back of the driver's seat, and stared at the back of the driver's head in a daze: "Or, I'll buy an official to do it too?"

The chauffeur is a clean-looking boy, his hair is always shaved very short, and because he doesn't use pomade or wax, it is almost shaggy.Shen Jiali had always been serious about his servants, but at this moment he suddenly found that this head looked very cute, so he really wanted to touch it, but he couldn't reach out.

After hesitating for a long time, he finally raised his hand unbearably, and slapped that head.

The chauffeur was touched on the head unexpectedly, he couldn't help shivering, and immediately turned his face to the side and asked, "Master, what's the matter?"

Shen Jiali replied casually: "Stop the car and let me drive."

The driver laughed and said, "Master, there are too many barriers on this road now, you can't drive fast. Just wait a little longer, you will be home soon."

Shen Jiali gave a noncommittal "hmm", and the hand slid down and rested on the driver's neck and shoulders.

The driver smiled blankly, a little panicked, and at the same time stepped up the accelerator.Shen Jiali knew that the other party was just a foolish young man who wouldn't think too much, and didn't dare to think too much, so he didn't withdraw his hand.

"Buy an official." He said to himself in a slightly drunken state: "The property of government officials will never be robbed or burned as soon as they say it. This bastard thinks that the world has changed. Can he be slaughtered? Fuck it, he's finished, I'm not finished yet!"
