On the winding railway, the locomotive blew white smoke and whistled.

Although Xu Youzheng did not issue an order to arrest Zou Xiurong, in case of precaution, she still took Liu and boarded an emergency train and drove towards Jinan.

Meng Siyuan has some friends in Beijing, and Shandong is also the power of parliamentarians. However, Zou Xiurong has a premonition that this time, it is not a parliamentarian or a big deal that can be solved. Only the fourth child can save Siyuan. In the car, Liu still cried. Zou Xiurong admired this woman much more than favorable.

In fact, it is difficult to make a woman have a favorable impression of another woman who caused her divorce. However, it is difficult to blame her for her efforts and for this titular marriage. Liu is a good person and should be rewarded.

Zou Xiurong admitted that Liu's love for Meng Siyuan may be stronger than herself. Otherwise, with her family background and beauty, she should have married a husband with status and wealth, have a few children, and be a happy mother. For this simple woman, Meng Siyuan is everything to her, but now her heaven is about to collapse.

"Don't be afraid, we will have a way when we arrive in Shandong." In fact, Zou Xiurong was also worried about Meng Siyuan's situation, but in front of this weak woman, she had to hide her weakness and make herself appear confident in order to stabilize Liu's heart.

Two women who had not had much friendship were now clasped together like good sisters. Through this transmission of temperature, confidence and strength are transmitted to each other, making the latter more courageous.

Looking at the scene passing by quickly, Zou Xiurong's heart was always hanging. Even if the other party could capture Siyuan, he would also be able to attack himself. Although railway workers and bureaus along the way used all means to protect themselves, it is hard to say how much effect this protection could play in the face of the power of the main palace. She was not afraid of death, but if the weak woman Liu, who was also caught in prison, could she survive?

The train stopped at Baoding Station and added water. When Zou Xiurong saw the platform full of Beiyang soldiers carrying guns, he calmed down. This was Cao Zhongkun's defense zone, and when he arrived, it should be safe.

At the opening of the car door, Cao Zhongkun and Chengzhen walked into the carriage one by one. Cao Zhongkun was clumsy and rubbed his hands continuously after meeting, but couldn't find a suitable word. After a long time, he said, "That... two brothers and sisters, don't be afraid. The big lawsuit, the big money, the yamen headed south, and if there is any reason or not, take the money. This is the old rule, and it will be effective at all times. We have money, and we are not afraid that Siyuan will not be able to protect it."

Zou Xiurong nodded, "Brother, we two women have no opinion now, we all rely on your help. You have arrived at the station in person and alarmed so many brothers, which makes me feel unbearable."

"My brother and sister, this is a matter of disregard. We are our own people and use our own soldiers. What's the point of being embarrassed about this? I added two carriages to your car and installed a battalion of soldiers. Escort you to Jinan to keep you safe. This part is my defense zone, plus the guards. I think who dares to be unfavorable to you! That... Siyuan's affairs, the fourth brother still has to make the decision. He has many ways, and he is also a judicial expert who we jointly hold. He is good at taking lawsuits. He is good at finding a lawyer and who will go to his own way. I'm sure he is right."

He paused, then patted his head and said, "I asked Zhongying to bring a sum of money to Beijing for activities. No matter what, I must bail my second brother first. Don't worry, Zhongying has a relationship at the yamen in the capital, and all cigarette friends and gambling friends are very powerful. Besides, there are also Shandong MPs, they will not see their own people suffer losses. Now is the era of communism, and the MPs have great strength. Shandong MPs are also a famous hard corner in the parliament. With them, the second brother will never suffer losses."

"Brother is intent, I will say thank you for Siyuan first." Liu was not familiar with Cao Zhongkun and talked to strange men. For an old-school woman like her, she was already a ruthless person. At this time, she was in chaos and didn't know what to say. Instead, Zou Xiurong socialized as the hostess.

Cheng Zhen took over the conversation at this time, "It's crazy, it's absolutely crazy! The second-in-law Meng, as the ruler of the Jin Dynasty, was the Minister of the Shang Dynasty. Without an imperial edict, he dared to lead troops to take the ministry? What's his identity? Why should he arrest people? I think from Duan Wai's nose to him, he was crazy and lawless. This matter is never over! I have to turn back to foreigners and mention that... Strong protest, yes! It's a strong protest! Let foreigners come forward to pick them up and see if he dares to hold them up."

Zou Xiurong ignored his feelings and asked, "Uncle Zhen, how is Siyuan's situation? The two of us women have limited power to exert in this matter. You have many ways in Beijing. Is there no news in these days?"

Liu also looked at Chengzhen nervously, paying attention to his attitude, Chengzhen slapped his thigh, "Why didn't I listen? Mrs. Zou, the conscience of heaven and earth. I am also a friendship with Second Master Meng. Can I ignore it? But this news is really not easy to listen. Xu Youzheng's grandson blocked the news very strictly. My people were not reliable at all. I just got a piece of news from the Military and Police Inspection Office. Xu Youzheng should have not punished the Second Master yet."

"It's good if you don't get the punishment." Liu breathed a sigh of relief when she heard that her husband was not suffering from flesh and blood. Zou Xiurong frowned even more. "It's already at the point of being punished? Xu Youzheng is planning to completely tear his face. Brother, Mr. Zhen, after the train is added, please leave immediately. I think this matter must be done as soon as possible."

When the special train arrived in Shandong, Zhao Guanhou took Su Hanzhi and was already waiting on the platform. When they met twice, Su Hanzhi held the hands of the two women and kept comforting that it was okay. Chengzhen got on a car by himself. Zhao Guanhou and several women got on another carriage and handed a newspaper to Zou Xiurong in the carriage.

"Second sister-in-law, you can take a look at this first."

In front of Liu, he called Zou Xiurong's second sister-in-law, which made the latter a little worried about Liu's face. Fortunately, Liu was now indifferent and only held Su Hanzhi's hand and had no intention of mind about the title. Zou Xiurong quickly scanned the newspaper and then threw the newspaper into the carriage, "This is impossible! This confession is definitely a problem, and Siyuan would never do such a thing."

Liu also knew the words. Seeing that Zou Xiurong reacted so fiercely, he knew that the content of the newspaper was related to her husband. He quickly picked up the newspaper and saw that the front page read "The patriotic industrialist is actually a great thief. The Dongling thief behind the scenes of the thief case, Meng Siyuan said instructing the confession of Meng Siyuan."

She read down quickly and saw a record of the confession published above. In the confession, Meng Siyuan personally admitted that in order to obtain commercial support from the Fusang people, she instructed people to steal gold Dongling and sent a large number of burial treasures to Fusang, and managed people from all walks of life to exchange for financial support from the other party. She also admitted that during the construction of the railway, the proceeds from the sale of public debts were filled with money to operate the private industry.

The railway, which claims to be a backbone, has been pointed out that there are many problems. For example, the raw materials are purchased from Shandong and have not gone through the procurement procedures that meet the regulations. The quality is not excellent, but the price is several times that of other suppliers. The salary of railway workers is much higher than that of normal employment, and there are many welfare guarantee means, which has led to a significant increase in railway labor costs. All of this is a means of colluding with a Shandong governor to make money.

The gentle woman's hands kept trembling, tears wet the newspaper, and she said tremblingly: "Impossible... This is impossible! They must have beaten him, they must have torture..."

Su Hanzhi gently held Liu's hand, "Madam Meng, don't be too sad, things are not as bad as you imagined. It's not the first time that people are catching up on others and even fabricated them out of thin air. Maybe things are different from what you imagined. Let's not get lost for the first time."

However, Liu had already buried his head in his knees, sobbing softly, and repeatedly muttering, "Siyuan is a good person, he is a good person..."

Zou Xiurong's reaction was much calmer than Liu's. He held his hands tightly and looked at Zhao Guanhou and said, "Old Fourth, when did this newspaper?"

"Yesterday's second sister-in-law was on the train and could not see the latest progress. The newspapers in the past two days have all been in this regard. Don't worry, I have sent Gao Sheng to Beijing to discuss the market with the other party. As long as Xiao Xu offers a price, I will definitely not bargain and guarantee that my second brother will return home safely. Break money and avoid disasters. Xiao Xu is nothing more than being poor and rushing to get tickets. He wants money. I have money. When my second brother comes back, I will find another opportunity to deal with him."

After hearing this, Liu cried even harder. Su Hanzhi hugged her tightly, letting Liu's head rest on his chest, and gently pat his hand on the other party's back, comforting him patiently. Zhao Guanhou turned to the railway progress and the difficulties in construction, and obviously regarded rescue of Meng Siyuan as an extremely easy thing. Seeing that Zou Xiurong also talked about railways and stocks, he seemed to be full of confidence. Only then did Liu's heart calm down and his crying gradually became smaller.

The carriage went directly to the Grand Marshal's Mansion. Su Hanzhi helped Liu to rest in the inner house, but Zou Xiurong took Zhao Guanhou's hand to the study. After sitting down, the relaxed expression on her face had disappeared. She looked at Zhao Guanhou with her eyes curled up and said, "Fourth brother, my sister-in-law asks you the truth, what's the situation with your second brother?"

At this time, Zhao Guanhou no longer had the calmness he had just now and his brows were furious.

"It's hard to say. I can only say that the difficulty of things is beyond my imagination. In fact, even Zhongying was almost arrested in the capital. There is one thing, maybe my sister-in-law doesn't know yet, and the president died."

"President... died suddenly?" Zou Xiurong was shocked and asked immediately: "Is this also related to Siyuan? They... dare to murder the president?"

"The doctor's diagnosis is that President Feng's heart disease suddenly occurred and unfortunately passed away. According to medical records, President Feng's heart disease has been for quite some time and is not a murder. Although the president's death and the second brother's arrest are two different things, according to the investigation, before the second brother was arrested, it is hard to say whether these two things are really unrelated to each other. Now Vice President Xu Juren takes over as president, Duan Zhiquan is still formed by the cabinet. Shandong MPs refuse to attend the meeting. They still use the old methods, military police.

The MPs simply ran to the concession, and the parliament had not yet been completed. However, the cabinet had already heard that the new president would rectify the discipline of parliament, change his free and casual style, and refuse to abolish the qualifications and re-select the members who attended the meeting. In addition, Duan Zhiquan emphasized judicial autonomy and was not subject to external interference. The Dongling robbery case was designated as a national case, and all those who tried to speak were all accomplices. Two Shandong MPs were arrested for this, and the others were not ready to face the rumor.”

"Will you hope for the trial? I believe Siyuan's so-called confession must have been fabricated by Xu Tieshan, or even the result of a torture. As long as he goes to court, Siyuan can speak. If there is a reporter here, he can always ask for justice."

Zhao Guanhou shook his head and said, "As soon as Cao Zhongying arrived in the capital, he started looking for a lawyer, but the Military and Police Inspection Department said that his second brother had an acute infectious disease. We used a lot of money and found some connections. The information we got was that his second brother was secretly detained. The guards around him were all Xu Youzheng's confidants, so it was difficult for us to reach out. Including the court trial, it was probably absent from the trial."

"So, are they not going to let your second brother go?" Zou Xiurong did not cry like Liu, and his expression looked quite calm. However, his teeth were biting his lips tightly, and blood flowed down the corners of his mouth without knowing it, which still exposed her mood at this moment.

"This time, they were a series of plans. Just after their second brother was arrested, the customs in Tianjin also found a batch of smuggled antiques prepared to be transported abroad. The ship owner was caught on the spot. There were a few of the antiques, which were confirmed to be funeral objects in the Dongling Mountains. The Beijing sent a special person to stare there. As soon as he found the person, he immediately took over the case. When he went to Beijing for interrogation, the ship owner insisted that it was the second brother who asked him to send the things to Fusang."

"Bloody blows people! Framed!" Zou Xiurong clenched his fists, "What is the result of this case?"

"It's hard to say. Although Gao Sheng has gone there, the person has returned. Xu Youzheng has no intention of talking about the market. Due to the turmoil of the government, we want to contact us, but we can't find a suitable person. I greeted the foreigners, but Capel's minister Kang Di supports Duan Zhiquan in handling China's internal affairs and does not agree with diplomatic interference in the judiciary. With him in it, it is difficult to exert international influence. To be honest, Juerdian is not very enthusiastic about this matter."

"Of course, your second brother built a railway and started an industry, and then acquired shares of the mine railway from foreigners, pursuing industry to save the country. Even in your family, Jason Hannah, these people, would dislike him, let alone the ministers in Dongjiaomin Lane. Being able to send him to prison is a matter of undesirable for foreigners. How could they expect their help? Let's not talk about your second brother, what about the others?"

Zhao Guanhou sighed, "Leng He Annie is not in Beijing. As for the members of the parliament, they are not afraid to catch them. No matter how crazy Xiaofan is, they dare not attack the member of the parliament. I am very sorry, this happened too suddenly, and there was no sign in advance, and I was caught off guard. As the head of the traffic chief, I didn't expect... Second sister-in-law, I'm sorry. If you want to cry, just cry. If you want to hit me, just beat me."

"Can you beat you get your second brother back? Leng He and the others don't go back to Shandong, how can it help to save your second brother?" Zou Xiurong shook his head and said, "Fourth, sister-in-law doesn't want to blame anyone now. I just want to know if there is any way to help your second brother."

"I have sent a telegram to Duan Zhiquan, but I have not received any response. If I was not stupid, I should have thought of the importance of Shandong's attitude to his presidential throne. I think he treated his second brother as a rare item and was about to slap me. To say something unpleasant, the meat ticket must be alive to ask for ransom from his family. I think the second brother's safety is always guaranteed. At most, I will suffer some flesh and blood. I will remember this account for the second brother. I want him to repay the sins he suffered ten times!"

Zou Xiurong sighed, "Fourth brother, if you say this, my sister-in-law can rest assured. I don't ask for revenge, I just want your second brother to be safe. You are the head of a Shandong family, and you can't just be loyal, but also take into account the overall situation. If Duan Zhiquan's request was too much, you don't have to give in. My sister-in-law is not an ignorant person, nor will you ask you to sacrifice too much for Siyuan. As long as you keep your second brother safe, it doesn't matter even if you are in prison."
