Chapter 37 Librarians
Old Eunuch Luo finally chose his "son", but after doing so, he could no longer face the death of the emperor to whom he was loyal, and it became his only choice.
Geng Chaozhong shook his head and walked out of the yard. Soon, the heart-rending cry of the middle-aged man came from behind.
It seems that although the father and son are not actually father and son, they really have a father-son relationship.
If it weren't for the love between them, Geng Chaozhong would not have easily obtained these treasures. You must know that Eunuch Jin is a lesson learned from the past. This man was so determined to die that even the Japanese spies that Geng Chaozhong once captured were astonished.
back.
Not many civil servants died for their country, but many eunuchs died for their country. This is a very strange phenomenon in Chinese history.
Wen Tianxiang's history can be remembered for centuries, why?
It's because there are too few such people in history.
Eunuchs were born in deep palaces and grew up in deep palaces. Their lives have been deeply bound to the dynasty. The new dynasty will use a surrendered civil servant, but it will not use a surrendered eunuch. When Chongzhen hung himself on Meishan, the same was true for those who accompanied him.
He is a eunuch.
Without him, the most trusted person around the emperor is not his parents or his wife, but often the eunuch.
Geng Chaozhong carried the baby on his back and quickly disappeared into the night...
...
Three days later, Nanjing.
"The person who saved you is called Sixth Brother?"
Virgo was sitting in the office, looking at Li Shunyi who was in ragged clothes and covered in filth.
"Yes, that's what the commander said. Also, the commander asked me to tell you: You have me in Peiping, so don't worry." Li Shunyi replied.
"Well, this kid is still so confident." A smile appeared on Virgo's gloomy face, "Has he told you about the whereabouts of Station Commander Wang?"
"Brother Six told me that the stationmaster got separated from him and is now missing." Li Shunyi replied.
"Well..." Virgo thought for a moment and waved his hand, "Go down!"
Li Shunyi agreed and walked out of the office quickly.
Virgo breathed a sigh of relief and sat back in his seat.
Wang Tianmu is not dead, and neither is Geng Chaozhong. This can be regarded as the best news he has received after the destruction of Beiping Station. However, although these two people are still alive, Beiping Station has actually existed in name only. How to arrange it in the future is really
Need to think carefully.
"Virgo, do you want to send more people to Peiping? Fang Tu is alone there, and I'm afraid it won't be possible." Tang Zong, the secretary next to him, saw what Virgo was thinking.
"No," Virgo waved his hand, "General Huang is negotiating with the Japanese in Tanggu. The Japanese have proposed that we ban secret anti-Japanese societies such as the Fuxing Society and the Blue Clothes Society. Sending people at this time will not only easily interfere with the negotiation situation, but also
It will also make the Japanese more wary of us, but we will discuss this later."
"I understand." Tang Zong nodded in agreement.
.........
Geng Chaozhong knew that Virgo would not send anyone over again.
When the Japanese were in the Northeast, they were troubled by the secret anti-Japanese activities carried out by the Fuxing Society. In the year when he launched the North China Autonomy, Wang Tianmu carried out a large number of assassinations in Peiping and Rehe, which gave the Japanese a headache. Therefore, the Japanese
It was proposed for the first time that the text prohibiting the secret activities of the Fuxing Society and the Lanyi Society should be included in the text of the Tanggu Agreement.
Of course, now that Beiping Station has been blocked, this excuse of the Japanese has temporarily lost its effect.
Geng Chaozhong has not been idle these three days.
Being a librarian at Yenching University is not an easy job. The first responsibility is to record the borrowing and returning of all teachers and students, and to quickly become familiar with the classification and distribution of books in the entire library. This is not an easy task.
Yes, Yenching University has the largest library in the entire city of Beiping, or it can be said to be the largest library in the entire North China, covering an area of 720 square meters.
However, don’t think that 720 square meters is all the library of Yenching University. This is just the floor area, and the library of Yenching University has four floors!
Geng Chaozhong has been very busy these days and has visited every corner of the Yanda Library. When he has some free time, Geng Chaozhong can't help but feel as if he is laughing or laughing.
I am a spy, but I do this kind of chores all day long, but after thinking about it, I realized that spy work inherently requires extremely high adaptability and role-playing ability. A good agent is also a good actor.
For example, Mr. Wu Hao is the mainstay of Nankai. His other identity on Nankai is that of a famous movie star in Shanghai. Others, such as Mr. Magic Master Sketch, are too numerous to mention (mentioned in the previous volume).
This morning, Geng Chaozhong had just put the books he had got back into place when he heard a sharp voice coming from his ears:
"Zhou Xuanhe, please send this volume of "Changgu Collection" to Mr. Deng quickly. Mr. Deng can't wait. He will scold others if he is anxious!"
The person who spoke was his immediate boss, the serious librarian of Yenching University, Hong Renyuan.
Hong Renyuan is not only the director of the library, but also the chairman of the History Department of Yanda University. He is extremely busy on weekdays. Since Geng Chaozhong came, Director Hong has found a good helper and simply resigned.
The picker calls Geng Chaozhong here and there every day.
Geng Chaozhong reluctantly agreed, quickly took the book from Hong Renyuan and ran quickly to the classroom.
Mr. Deng was the Mr. Deng who scolded Hu Shi all day long for his nonsense. He had a weird temper. He usually wore a blue cloth robe, a melon cap with a red knot on the top, and leg straps tied around his ankles. He was a typical scholar-bureaucrat in the late Ming Dynasty.
Everyone in class also calls him "Old Master".
Arriving at the door of the classroom, Geng Chaozhong knocked on the door, then walked politely under the podium, bowed to the ground, performed an ancient salute, and said:
"Mr. Deng, the book is here."
The Republic of China was an era where ancient and modern coexisted, and various schools of thought complemented and collided with each other. Especially at Yan University, there were many strange people and strange things. Geng Chaozhong had done a lot of homework in the past few days. He knew that Mr. Deng had always hated Manchu.
Qing Dynasty, he was a revolutionary when he was young, but he admired the Ming Dynasty very much, so he paid extra attention when saluting.
"Well, you're good," Mr. Deng looked at Geng Chaozhong with satisfaction, then took the book, pointed to the seat next to him, and said, "If you want to listen, you can sit aside."
Geng Chaozhong was overjoyed. He had been so busy being ordered around by Director Hong these days. He had long wanted to take a break for half a day. Now that Mr. Deng was giving him advice, how could he not follow it?
I looked down at the classroom, but it was full. Just when I was a little hesitant, a crisp voice came from the audience:
"Mr. Zhou, come here."
Geng Chaozhong took a look and saw that it was Miss Zhao Ersheng who sent him to school that day. She was sitting in the last row of the classroom, where there was a place for brooms and dustpans, and there happened to be a space left.
Geng Chaozhong quickly walked over and sat next to Zhao Ersheng.
"Why are you sitting here?"
Geng Chaozhong was a little speechless. This position was extremely unfavorable. It had always been the exclusive position reserved for the worst student in the class.
"I don't like old men giving lectures." Zhao Ersheng stuck out his tongue and secretly pointed at the stage.
Geng Chaozhong smiled. He heard from Zhao Ersheng the other day that Mr. Deng complained about Zhao Ersheng's idol Hu Shi all day long, which made her very dissatisfied. It seemed that she was hiding here to find some leisure time.
As soon as he sat down, several strange looks came from the side. Geng Chaozhong noticed at a glance that several boys were looking at him with a slightly amused look. He couldn't help but froze for a moment, and he immediately came to his senses.
