Fang Zida drank a lot of wine, but his mind was still clear-headed. He was shocked when he heard this.--(

Cao Kun still said there with his tongue wide, "Brother Zheng Ming, my brother can take out everything he says today. My brother will be the only one who leads his troops to the top. As long as the top president says one thing and let me go east, my brother will never go west. Besides, the top president now has soldiers and pay, and the prestige of the people is so high that those troubled revolutionaries are beaten to the point of failure. As long as one order is given, what can I do? Brother Zheng Ming, what do you think?"

Fang Zida really regretted coming here at this time. He never expected that Cao Kun, who seemed reckless and loyal, would have such a scheming. All the celebrities in history were not simple. Since Cao Kun could bribe the president, of course he would not be a fuel-efficient lamp. Today, when he was in the banquet, Cao Kun first talked around, talking about everything from all over the world, and encouraging Fang Zida to drink. After the three rounds of wine, the relationship between the two sides deepened. Seeing that Fang Zida was almost drunk again, Cao Kun slowly shifted the topic and slowly brought it to Yuan Shikai. Then he used some words to specifically arouse Fang Zida's resonance. When the final time arrived, he said his true purpose half-truely and half-falsely, and used this to force Fang Zida to express his opinion on the spot.

Cao Kun looked at Fang Zida with a smile, but there was a hint of cunning and complacent in his drunken eyes. Fang Zida secretly complained in his heart. He was not sure whether Cao Kun was making his own decision or was instructed by Yuan Shikai, or that this was the result of private discussion between Yuan Keding and Cao Kun. But no matter what the situation was, Fang Zida was not easy to deal with, and he was sweating coldly behind him for a moment. I don’t know how to answer.

"Damn it! This old fox didn't expect to suffer such a loss by accident." Fang Zida was anxious and scolded. If he agreed with Cao Kun, Cao Kun's personality would definitely be publicized everywhere afterwards that Fang Zida was on Yuan Shikai's side, and when he reached the last step, he would use this to threaten him and provoke the relationship between him and kmt. If he expressed his objection, what would they think once it reached Yuan Shikai or Yuan Keding's ears?

"Brother Zhong San... This wine is really good! It's good wine!"

Fang Zida raised his wine glass in a shaky manner. He also said with his tongue wide: "Zhong San's loyalty to his father-in-law really touched Zida. I respect Zhong San's cup."

After saying that, Fang Zida drank it all, then blushed and said, "As for what Brother Zhong San said just now, I...I..."

Just as Cao Kun was waiting for Fang Zi to express his opinion, who would have thought that Fang Zida would spit it out in one mouthful. In the blink of an eye, he shook his body straight and fell backwards.

"Brother Zheng Ming, what's wrong with you?" Cao Kun helped Fang Zida out with a quick hand, lowered his head and looked at Fang Zida tightly closed his eyes and muttered: "Good wine... Have another glass...dry it..." He seemed to be drunk.

Frowning and shouting a few times, Fang Zida fell asleep without hesitation. Cao Kun's face flashed with anger and he instantly returned to calm. At this time, Li Yanqing came in with a bowl of spicy soup. Cao Kun waved to him and asked Li Yanqing to call two people and send the drunk Fang Zida back to his house.

"Master, why is President Fang so drunk?" After helping to send Fang Zida away, Li Yanqing returned to the restaurant and saw Cao Kun sitting alone at the table.

"Haha, drunk... It's such a coincidence! The president's son-in-law is really hard to deal with. It seems... this matter needs to be discussed for a long time..." Cao Kun, who was not drunk at all, touched the beard beside his mouth and sneered coldly.

Li Yanqing found two restaurant staff and hired a car to help send Fang Zida back to the mansion. When Yuan Sizhen saw Fang Zida being so drunk, he hurriedly called someone to help carry her husband into the room. After helping to put it in the bed, Yuan Sizhen hurriedly asked the servants to boil water and prepared to wash Fang Zida's face.

After a while, hot water was delivered. Yuan Sizhen closed the door, soaked hot water with a towel, and was about to help Fang Zida scrub Fang, but he didn't expect Fang Zida, who was so drunk a minute ago, suddenly sat up from the bed. Apart from the smell of alcohol, looking at his clear eyes, how could he feel at all drunk?

"Zida...you?"

Yuan Sizhen looked at her husband in surprise, forgot to put down the towel in his hand for a moment.

"I'm not drunk, I'm worried." Fang Zida said with a wry smile, turned around and got out of bed.

"Then... I'll pour you a glass of water..." Yuan Sizhen was not from an ordinary family. After a little surprised, he realized that there must be a reason why her husband pretended to be drunk, so he asked quickly.

"No need, don't tell me about pretending to be drunk." Fang Zida sighed lightly and reminded him specifically.

Yuan Sizhen nodded in understanding, and looked at Fang Zida's prediction and stopped. He seemed to want to ask what was going on, but he suppressed his curious thoughts.

Looking at Yuan Sizhen, Fang Zida thought for a while and waved her to sit beside him.

"Sizhen, can I trust you?"

"Of course! Zida, why do you ask this?" Yuan Sizhen said in confusion.

"If, I said it was if..." Fang Zida tried to say tactfully: "If my father-in-law did something inappropriate and I wanted to stop him, who would you help?"

Yuan Sizhen was shocked and looked up and asked anxiously: "What happened to Zida? Is his father going to be against you? This... I'll go find my father!"

He grabbed Yuan Sizhen and Fang Zida shook his head: "No, my father-in-law still values ​​me very much."

"You scared me to death!" Yuan Sizhen clenched his fist and hit Fang Zida in the chest, tears flashing in his eyes.

"Silly girl..." Holding Yuan Sizhen's hand, Fang Zida gently stroked her long hair: "It's not like you imagined, but my father-in-law has some political views that are different from me. Although nothing is wrong now, if this continues, I'm afraid there will be conflicts between us, and it is possible to turn against each other. But don't worry, no matter how dissatisfied my father-in-law is, he will not do anything to me, but everyone will make a big fuss in the future."

"My father is old and in poor health. Zida, can't you let him go? They are all family members, so what can't be discussed carefully?" Yuan Sizhen asked in confusion.

Shaking his head, Fang Zida said bitterly: "Discuss? There is no need to discuss this matter!"

"Why?"

"You don't understand some things, so I want to ask you, where will you stand on then?" Fang Zida looked into her eyes.

Yuan Sizhen bit her lower lip lightly, and her heart was extremely entangled. She hesitated for a long time under Fang Zida's gaze, and finally said, "Zida, I believe in you! However, I still hope you can have a good talk with your father."

Fang Zida felt relieved, and Yuan Sizhen's reply made him feel much better. But listening to her next sentence, she couldn't help but shake her head secretly and sighed: "The talk must be discussed, but now is not the time. If the negotiation cannot be reached..."

"Zida, can you tell me what my father is going to do? What is inappropriate?"

"This..." Hesitated a little, Fang Zida still felt that it would be better to tell Yuan Sizhen, and immediately said softly: "I suspect that my father-in-law wants to be the emperor."

"ah!"

Yuan Sizhen suddenly widened his eyes and was extremely shocked. Although she was born in the Yuan family, she was not a little girl who knew nothing. The Qing Dynasty abdicated and the establishment of the Republic of China. Yuan Sizhen had experienced all these. The Republic of China is booming and the influence of constitutionalism is gradually deepening among the people. Everyone has long lost the concept of emperor and subjects in their hearts, and the country is at a great opportunity for development. At this time, Yuan Shikai actually wanted to be an emperor? Could he want to take the blame for the world and turn back on history? How could Yuan Shikai, who had been wise for a lifetime, do such a thing?

"Zida, are you listening to people talking nonsense? How is this possible? Father... Father will never do this." Yuan Sizhen was panicked. She knew very well that once Yuan Shikai made this decision, it would definitely be a reference for thousands of people. Fang Zida, as the main cadre of kmt, would of course strongly oppose it. This would be a small matter for the two to fall in love, but Yuan Shikai took this wrong step, which was the real big matter.

"This is not hearsay. Sizhen, do you know why I pretend to be drunk today?" Fang Zida smiled bitterly and said one by one about Cao Kun's banquet. Yuan Sizhen knew the relationship between Cao Kun and Yuan Shikai. When she heard Fang Zida say that Cao Kun was drinking to force him to express his opinion, she couldn't help but cover her mouth and was extremely shocked.

Not only that, Fang Zida also mentioned Yuan Keding. Yuan Keding repeatedly suggested several times and asked him to set up a guard in the central bank. He specially asked Wang Zhaoming to take charge, and then connected him everywhere in the Beiyang system, making a series of preparations in private. Even Yuan Shikai himself seemed to have this idea, and none of the deep meanings revealed in the words Yuan Shikai and him yesterday, but Old Yuan has not yet made up his mind.

"And brother?" Yuan Sizhen finally understood why there was concern in Fang Zida's smile these two days. As for Yuan Keding's role in it, Yuan Sizhen was shocked at first, and then reacted. It was not surprising to think about Yuan Keding's usual personality and actions, and it was actually keen on Yuan Shikai's proclaimed emperor.

"Zida, what do you think you should do? Never let your father do such a thing! Otherwise, our Yuan family would..." Yuan Sizhen's body trembled slightly, and he held Fang Zida's hand tightly and said anxiously.

"Don't worry, you are pregnant. I didn't want to tell you about this, but..." Fang Zida comforted softly, shook his head and said, "I haven't thought about how to do it yet. Fortunately, this matter is just a sign that just happened, and outsiders don't know. I'm afraid that my father-in-law will not listen to advice and will do his own thing. If you really do it, it will be irreversible."

Nodded, Yuan Sizhen expressed her understanding that the anxiety in her heart was even more than Fang Zida, and took the initiative to propose: "Zida, why don't I bring my second brother and the others together, and everyone will discuss and persuade my father, he is a good person? As long as his father can listen to his advice, even if the eldest brother and Cao Zhongsan have to make trouble again, it will be useless."

"You can try it, but no one knows whether my father-in-law can listen to advice. If he thinks we are doing this instead..." Fang Zida hesitated.

"How can I know if I don't do it? It's better for my own people to persuade me than for outsiders in the future. Zida, let's do it. Leave this matter to me. I'll go to discuss it with my second brother tomorrow." Yuan Sizhen said firmly. Fang Zida thought about it and finally nodded in agreement. When he turned his head, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. To be continued...
