"Zi Go! Why is this?" Sheng Xuanhuai was anxious when he saw Chen Congyun packing his luggage and meant to leave. He stepped forward and snatched Chen Congyun's baggage and said loudly.

"What? The lord doesn't hate to refuse to serve the lord of the central hall?" Chen Congyun asked with a sneer. Sheng Xuanhuai sighed when he saw it, "Zi Gui, everyone has their own ambitions. You don't want to translate, and you won't force it. If you can't tolerate this, you will make people laugh at me."

After saying that, Sheng Xuanhuai showed a lonely look, reached out and patted Chen Congyun on the shoulder and said, "Stay safe and feel free to stay."

With infinite regret and disappointment in his eyes, Sheng Xuanhuai slowly turned around and left. Chen Congyun looked at Sheng Xuanhuai's slightly hunched back with a slight staggering footsteps. He suddenly thought that Sheng Xuanhuai was just a 40-year-old man, and his back looked so old. Could it be that Sheng Xuanhuai didn't understand, is this traitorous treaty not allowed? Chen Congyun asked himself, and suddenly realized that Sheng Xuanhuai knew, but this Qing Dynasty was like a broken house with wind leaks everywhere, and Li Hongzhang, who was trying hard to maintain and support the single tree, really did not dare to start a war easily. War costs money, and there were too many places that needed to spend money in the Qing Dynasty.

Could it be that Sheng Xuanhuai took on this task for me? I want me to show it? There is no French translation around Li Hongzhang? Thinking of this, Chen Congyun suddenly woke up. He was too attached to the appearance. Even if he didn't translate this peace, history would not change. If he could seize this opportunity and shine in front of Li Hongzhang, he might be able to seize another opportunity, and it might not be possible to change history a little.

"Wait!" Chen Congyun chased out of the room and shouted loudly.

Sheng Xuanhuai didn't go far, and looked back at Chen Congyun with a smile.

"Sir, I've taken this job, but I still have something to ask for it." After that, Chen Congyun bowed and bowed.

Sheng Xuanhuai was stunned at first, then looked happy and hurriedly stepped forward to support Chen Congyun's body and said, "What's the matter with Zigui? Not to mention one thing, even if it's ten or eight, I'll do it."

"So, thank you sir!" Chen Congyun took the peace agreement from Sheng Xuanhuai, bowed a long time, and turned back to the room.

That night! The lights in the east wing of Shengfu were not turned off all night.

In front of the desk, Chen Congyun held the straw and goose feathers he found and was writing his own pen. Chen Congyun was very hard to write, and he was used to simplified Chinese characters. Traditional Chinese characters were extremely difficult.

At dawn, Chen Congyun finally completed his first work in this world.

I stood up, stretched my body, twisted my sore neck, pounded my aching waist, and slowly walked out of the door. The courtyard was silent, the morning mist in late spring was faint, and the sky was vaguely white.

"Is it my son's return?" Sheng Xuanhuai's voice came from the door of the yard, and Chen Congyun hurriedly met him.

"Didn't you sleep all night?" Sheng Xuanhuai showed concern, and Chen Congyun shook his head gently and said, "It's okay, young man, staying up late is nothing."

"I'm going to go to the date now. Have you finished the translation of the peace agreement?" Sheng Xuanhuai's eyes were red. He probably didn't sleep well last night, so don't say that he was worried about Chen Congyun's affairs.

Chen Congyun turned around and returned to the room, took two manuscripts and handed them to Sheng Xuanhuai and said, "Sir, the translated manuscript is inside. In addition, he wrote a letter of advice under the sanctuary, and asked the adult to pass it to the central hall."

"Is this what you are asking for?"

Chen Congyun nodded gently and bowed: "Sir, please!"

………………………………………

Tianjin, Beiyang Minister Head, Li Hongzhang's study room!

Sheng Xuanhuai stood by the desk, waiting patiently for Li Hongzhang to read Chen Congyun's advice with a nervous mood.

"Zhu Zi! How dare you talk about state affairs lightly?" Li Hongzhang, who had no expression on his face, suddenly looked dark and threw Chen Congyun's letter of advice on the desk.

"Sir!" Sheng Xuanhuai was shocked and hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "What is it written above?"

"Look at it for yourself!" Li Hongzhang frowned, closed his eyes slightly, and leaned against the chair. Changsui, who had been standing behind Li Hongzhang, hurriedly waved into the inner room. Two young and beautiful maids walked out with tea.

Sheng Xuanhuai took Chen Congyun's letter of advice and opened it. It was a neat and fine running script, which didn't look like it was written in a brush.

"Zhongtang Master Jun Ji! I look at the current affairs of China and France. No matter how we tolerate it, there will inevitably be a battle between China and France. Therefore, the important matters today do not care about the British and American counterparts, but about the preparations of our army. The French and French want to occupy the land of our southwest border, and their ambitions are obvious. Once the Concise Treaty of the Sino-French Conference was signed, the French and French thought that our dynasty was cowardly and would have a desire to make a breakthrough. I look at the movements of France and French, one of which is nothing more than the soldiers pointing to Liangshan and then planning to plan for my southwest. Secondly, approach my Fujian Mawei with a fleet and performing a sneak attack while I was unprepared...." Sheng Xuanhuai looked, his hands were trembling gently. Chen Congyun predicted that the French army would first attack Taiwan and then turn into Mawei. If the Fujian Navy did not prepare early, the entire army would be destroyed.

Finally, Chen Congyun said in his letter of advice: "War does not only fight the economic strength of the two countries. France was established as a republic. If its army was sent to the expedition, its people would rise up and condemn the government. Our army should prepare early. Once the situation of the war develops in a direction that is not conducive to the French army, its domestic chaos will be chaos. At that time, our army can take the opportunity to occupy the entire territory of Vietnam and force the French and foreign countries to reconcile, and the southwest will be in danger from now on."

The whole letter of advice, which has thousands of words, not only analyzes the possible next trends of the French army, but also analyzes the military power comparison between the two sides, the respective advantages and disadvantages of the two armies, and some predictions of the direction of the war. The result is that our army will win and the French will lose.

In other words, the relationship between Li Hongzhang and Sheng Xuanhuai is good enough. Otherwise, such a letter of advice would be written as a Bai Ding, and it would be a crime of rumoring about state affairs and undermining international diplomatic relations.

After reading the advice, Sheng Xuanhuai was already sweating profusely. He was worried about Chen Congyun and carefully looked up at Li Hongzhang's expression.

Li Hongzhang, who had been closing his eyes to rest, seemed to notice Sheng Xuanhuai was looking at him at this time. He waved his hand gently to signal the two maids to go down, opened his eyes and said slowly: "This boy is frivolous! But he is also a talent."

When he heard that Li Hongzhang had no intention of pursuing the matter, Sheng Xuanhuai hurriedly took over and said, "Sir, I know clearly! This son is young, Meng Lang, and he has no words. Xuan Huai is willing to take it for him."

Li Hongzhang waved his hand gently and said, "Yu Sun, I don't mean to blame you. You have been following me for many years, and I know your character. In this way, you donate an official position for him after you go back, and go back to make up for your real shortcomings. Just follow you for the time being. Looking at this son's advice, thousands of words are spreading. Although his literary talent is average, his knowledge is not bad, his thinking is clear, and he will be more tempered. He may be a talent that can be used in the future."

Li Hongzhang really gave Sheng Xuanhuai enough face. After hearing this, Sheng Xuanhuai's eyes felt sore and he quickly lowered his head and said, "Thank you sir!"

……………………

After seeing off Sheng Xuanhuai and after finishing the first major thing in this world, Chen Congyun felt physically and mentally exhausted, and fell on the bed and slept until the afternoon before getting up.

Opening his eyes, he saw Sheng Xuanhuai sitting on a chair, looking at himself with a smile, and couldn't help but sit up and said, "Sir! Why are you here?"

"I'm back! I've read the Lord of the Jinyanshu Zhongtang. I have a high opinion of you!" Sheng Xuanhuai said it very well, but unfortunately, Chen Congyun didn't expect Li Hongzhang to adopt his opinion at all. In history, Li Hongzhang rarely had a tough time when he was able to make peace.

Chen Congyun turned over and got out of bed, smiled bitterly and said, "Sir, don't lie to me! The master in the middle hall has already thanked God if he didn't say that Congyun was a crazy man. I will give this letter of advice, but I only ask for peace of mind and no other things."

Seeing Chen Congyun like this, Sheng Xuanhuai couldn't help but smile, pointing at Chen Congyun and said, "You are so sarcastic. You don't blame you if you are a crazy person. You underestimate the Lord Zhongtang. The Lord Zhongtang admires your talent very much. He ordered me to donate an official to you, and then he will come forward to make up for your real shortcomings. I will follow me in the future to do things."

Chen Congyun never expected that this result would be the result. The introduction of this letter of advice was just a foreshadowing. When the Sino-French War expanded in the future, he seemed to have foresight and let Li Hongzhang take a high look. Unexpectedly, Li Hongzhang directly gave Sheng Xuan a big face and got himself an official first.

Seeing Chen Congyun staying there, Sheng Xuanhuai was both proud and relieved, turned around and greeted outside the door, "Come in!"
