Xunwen was still busy greeting the people offering incense in the audience.
Xunwu had already come behind him, but he didn't even react at all.
"Senior brother, please stop what you are doing for the time being.
I have something urgent that I want you to help me with."
Xunwen put down the tea bowl he had just picked up.
"Junior brother, what's the matter?"
Xunwen had just finished asking, but Xunwu didn't answer immediately.
He took his hand and entered the side room.
"Brother, help me go to the Chen Mansion.
I must see Chen Leiting and hand this letter to him in person.
It affects everyone's lives and fortunes.
Don't be careless.
You can take the bill for building a water cellar.
By delivering the bill, Hand the letter to Chen Leiting as soon as possible.
After handing it over, you can leave quickly without delay."
After saying that, Xunwu took out the letter he had just written and a stack of bills from his arms.
Xunwen knew in his heart that his junior brother would not let him go out and take risks to deliver the message unless it was absolutely necessary.
He must have encountered a difficult problem.
He didn't ask what happened to Xunwu, but calmly and naturally agreed, "Don't worry, just wait for me.
I'll deliver it and I'll be right back."
Xunwu watched Xunwen ride on the fellow's donkey, and did not return to the view until his back disappeared.
Xunwen arrived at Chen's house and handed over his name card.
The housekeeper quickly took Xunwen into the house.
As soon as he entered the gate, he met the second lady.
Xunwen was about to salute, but unexpectedly, the second lady actually spoke first.
"I remember correctly, this is Taoist priest Xunwen of Deqingguan," the second lady pretended to say hello.
In fact, she had already set her sights on Xunwen as soon as he walked in.
"Madam, you really have a good memory," Xunwen praised.
"The Taoist priest's coarse tea and vegetarian food are excellent.
How could I forget why I came to the house today?"
asked the second lady.
"Pindao is here to give you the bill for building a water cellar," Xunwen said unhurriedly.
"Bill" the second lady asked.
Xunwen saw the second lady's thoughts and wanted to see what he had brought.
So, he quickly took out the thick stack of bills from his satchel and presented it to the second lady for review.
"I'm just asking, you don't need to let me read it," the second lady said without looking, but couldn't help but flipped through some ordinary journals and handed them back to Xunwen.
"There's nothing wrong, madam.
I'll take my leave now."
Xunwen saluted the second madam and was led into Chen Leiting's study by the housekeeper.
After Chen Tingting and Xunwu agreed to do something on the 20th day of the lunar calendar, they became restless every day.
When he has nothing to do, he likes to stay quietly in the study room, drink tea, and read Western revolutionary books translated by Charlie Wang.
When he heard the butler's report, he asked to see him.
Chen Tingting was very sensitive, and he expected that it must be an urgent matter.
Otherwise, he would not have allowed his senior brother to deliver the letter in person.
"Sir, Taoist priest Xunwen has arrived," the housekeeper reported outside the door.

"Invite him in quickly," Chen Leiting ordered.
Xunwen was still holding the stack of bills that the Second Madam had seen just now, and did not catch up with them.
As soon as he entered the room, he quickly took out the letter from his Taoist crown, handed it to Chen Leiting, saluted and said, "Sir, , this letter is what my junior brother asked me to give you."
"Master Xunwen, why are you still holding the bill in your hand?
Did something happen on the road?"
Chen Leiting asked worriedly.
"Have a good trip.
Madam just came across this bill.
She was curious and looked through it casually," Xunwu said with a smile.
"She didn't make things difficult for you, right?"
Chen Leiting asked again.
"Fortunately," Xunwen finished, and then continued, "Since the letter has been delivered safely, I can take my leave."
"Then I won't keep you, please."
Chen Tingting ordered the housekeeper to send Xunwen out of the house.
Chen Tingting opened the letter, and after reading it, he was shocked and said to himself, "Our lives were almost lost at the hands of a group of Japanese pirates.
The only way to do this now is to summon all the commanders and disarm the cadre of Cao Yigan.
Only then can we ensure that great things can be accomplished."
So, he immediately ordered the butler to call Charlie Wang.
"Sir, what's the emergency?"
Wang Charlie asked as soon as he came in.
"Look" Chen Leiting handed the letter from Xunwen to Charlie Wang.
After Charlie Wang read it carefully, he looked solemn and said to Chen Tingting, "It's all my fault for not being strict with people, which caused a big disaster."
"Mr.
Wang, now is not the time to blame ourselves.
For the current plan, we must summon all Biaotong and remove the military power of those Biaotong who are loyal to Cao Yi," Chen Leiting said.
"Sir, the officers I developed in the New Army before are all brave and knowledgeable young people who can be trusted."
After reminding Wang Charlie, he took out a list and handed it to Chen Leiting.
"I understand that I have actually heard a little bit about you secretly developing party members in the New Army, but I didn't expect that you are so powerful that even several of my most trusted leaders have all become revolutionary parties," Chen Leiting said with emotion. .
"Revolution is what the people want.
You are a hero who conforms to the trend of the world.
Your achievements in the revolution will surely shine through the ages," said Charlie Wang comfortingly.
Chen Leiting said no more, took off the military uniform from the hanger, and shouted, "Here comes someone."
The personal guard ran in and asked, "What are your orders, sir?"
"According to my order, all the generals must gather at Zhongwu Hall.
I will arrive shortly."
"This is my humble duty."
The guard left the study.
"Mr.
Wang, you go to the camp with me," Chen Leiting said, handing a saber to Charlie Wang.
"Okay, we will revolt tonight."
Charlie Wang took the saber handed over by Chen Leiting, stepped forward with his right hand and held Chen Leiting's hand tightly, and the two of them left the Chen Mansion together.
The new army officers and soldiers in the camp had finished their training all day and it was time for dinner.
The order from Chen Leiting's guard was like a cannonball falling on the new army camp in Dayingpan, and the soldiers all exploded.
Everyone was talking about it.
Some people said that the controller suddenly came to give a lecture, and he must be announcing something important.

Others said that the controller came, maybe because he was waiting for Master Cao, who would be back soon.
In fact, this is just the discussion of the big soldiers.
The most nervous ones were the leaders of the two factions.
The leaders of Wang Charlie's development were most worried about whether Chen Tingting's position would change suddenly.
After receiving the order, they privately discussed a countermeasure.
If Chen Leiting's position changes, the officers who participated in the training at the Catholic Church will pull their troops away tonight.
Cao Yi's best friends, led by Zhang Li, the commander of the artillery camp, were watching Chen Leiting's every move, waiting for Cao Yi's secret order.
In the Zhongwu Hall, the lights are brightly lit, and all the officials are sitting upright, waiting for the arrival of the Lord Commander.
"Your Excellency has arrived," the herald said loudly, and all the officials stood up.
Chen Leiting, wearing a military uniform and a black and red-lined cloak, walked from outside the hall to the main seat and sat down.
"Everyone, take a seat."
Chen Leiting motioned for everyone to sit down.
"Thank you, Sir" the officials said in unison.
"I came here unexpectedly tonight.
I have something to tell you."
After Chen Leiting finished speaking, his personal bodyguard waved his hand, and two large soldiers escorted an officer in from the side door.
Several Biaotong murmured quietly, and they all said the same name, Ah Cheng.
"By the way, some of you Biaotong still know him.
His name is Ah Cheng.
Do you know who he is?"
Chen Leiting stood up and pointed at Ah Cheng who was tied up with a strip of cloth in his mouth and said.
"Then let's see his true face."
Chen Leiting motioned to his guards again.
Chen Leiting's bodyguard signaled to the two soldiers to grasp Acheng's left and right arms, and he pulled out a shiny saber and pointed it at Acheng's belt.
All the officials present held their breath, and the entire Zhongwu Hall was eerily silent.
The guard raised his knife and dropped it.
Ah Cheng's belt was split into two pieces, and there was only a slight scratch on his belly, which slowly swollen. bleeding Everyone in the Zhongwu Hall admired the guards' superb sword skills.
Before he had time to clap his hands, the scene after Ah Cheng's pants fell down surprised everyone.
Ah Cheng's legs were bare, but he was wearing a loincloth in the secret area.
"Zhang Li, tell everyone what he is wearing."
Chen Leiting asked Zhang Li's name in the artillery camp.
"Reporting to your lord, he is wearing Japanese crotch cloth, also called crotch cloth."
Zhang Li stood up and explained.
"Zhang Biaotong once studied in Japan and has never seen anything like this.
Who do you think he is?"
Chen Leiting asked "Japanese pirates" everyone said indignantly.
"What should we do?"
Chen Leiting asked again.
"Kill, kill, kill" everyone shouted louder and louder.
"Then we can't give them any advantage.
He told me that there are many of his accomplices in our New Army camp."
Chen Leiting said coldly, sat down, took a sip of tea, and looked at the infantry.
Li He, the commander of the camp, asked again.
"Li Biaotong, what do you think we should do?"
"I believe that no matter who is involved, everyone must be arrested for interrogation and interrogation, and rape must not be tolerated to avoid causing catastrophe," Li He stood up and said.

"Li Biaotong said it's good to come and capture all the suspects for me," Chen Leiting ordered sternly.
Immediately, several groups of soldiers poured in from various side entrances of Zhongwu Hall and tied up Zhang Li of the artillery battalion, Li He of the first infantry battalion and other Cao Yi's best friends.
"My lord, I misunderstood and wronged my humble position," Zhang Li roared.
"Yes, I want to confront Ah Cheng face to face."
Li He was not convinced.
Then, the other tied Biaotongs all shouted.
"Whether it's unfair or not, I don't care what I say now.
I will give you an explanation after the interrogation is completed."
Chen Leiting said slowly.
"Haven't you seen that Chen Leiting has turned against him?"
Zhang Li shouted.
"You're right.
We just want to drive out the Tartars and restore China."
Wang Charlie held the saber given to him by Chen Leiting and walked in from the back door of Zhongwu Hall.
"Someone will send them to the prison in the camp, and we will deal with them after our uprising is successful."
Wang Charlie gave an order, and the leaders attending the Catholic Church called in their own soldiers and escorted Zhang Li and others to the prison.
"Mr.
Wang, what should I do with this person?"
Chen Leiting pointed at Acheng.
"We will take him into custody now.
After the incident is completed, we will investigate and interrogate him again," said Charlie Wang.
"Mr.
Wang, have you informed Master Xunwu?"
Chen Leiting asked again.
"Brother Xunwu, I just sent someone to pick him up and they will be there soon":
