Leading the group was Prince Qing's son, Beile Zai Zhen, followed by the Chinese minister to Japan. Although Liang Xiang had come to Japan as a military student by taking over the quota originally assigned to Prince Qing's family, he didn’t know Beile Zai Zhen at all and had no intention of getting close to him. He went to a small restaurant to eat by himself. Li Renjun didn’t go either; he went with Liang Xiang to the restaurant.

Yang Kaizhi had made his own bed, so he could lie in it himself. Liang Xiang truly didn’t understand why Yang Kaizhi wanted to get involved in court affairs. Li Renjun told him that Yang Kaizhi was not only connected with court officials, but also had dealings with Liang Qichao. Just last month, Yang Kaizhi had tried to take Li Renjun to meet Liang Qichao, but since Li Renjun was aligned with Yuan Shikai, he naturally refused.

Even back in Shanghai, Yang Kaizhi had already been blacklisted by the court. Somehow, he had managed to get close to the Governor-General of Liangjiang and had the backing of Song Baoquan, the Vice President of the Shanghai Chamber of Commerce. Without that support, Yang Kaizhi wouldn’t have been able to qualify as a military student in Japan.

Liang Xiang didn’t want to meet Beile Zai Zhen, but to his surprise, Yang Kaizhi brought Zai Zhen to the small restaurant to find him and even brought the funds his father had entrusted him to give Liang Xiang as a means to win him over as a military talent. Beile Zai Zhen told Liang Xiang that from now on, he should consider himself a future military leader of the court.

The court needed fresh military talent, and Prince Qing needed him. —On her first day, Xie Shuhong reported to the Wan Shan Toy Store and then began her work. The first person she looked for was Mr. Zhu Wentong, an elderly man with graying beard and sideburns. He was initially unwilling to draw anymore, but Xie Shuhong had a sweet tongue and some background in painting and calligraphy. She praised Mr.

Zhu’s crane painting endlessly, and he agreed with a smile to paint another one. Liang Xiang was performing well in the Inukai Regiment, but his brow was clouded with worry. When Duke Ayakura asked about it, Liang Xiang said his mother’s asthma had flared up again. Duke Ayakura thought for a moment and said that Liang Xiang’s mother could come stay in Tokyo for a month or two—he happened to know a doctor who specialized in treating asthma.

Liang Xiang then asked Zhu Laixi to buy a ship ticket for his mother. He arranged for her to stay at Songlin, in a room diagonally across from Wu Tianbai and Xie Shuhong. Soon after, Liang Xiang’s mother arrived in Tokyo, and Liang Xiang settled her into Songlin before returning to the regiment that night—he had to go on a training exercise the next day.

There were many Japanese people living in Songlin, which would make things easier for his mother in the future. The next day, Liang Xiang’s mother saw that Xie Shuhong was Chinese and asked her to help bring over breakfast. She also looked for a small stool, but the proprietress Daizi said it couldn’t be used. So Liang Xiang’s mother quietly asked Xie Shuhong in Chinese whether she could sit on it after Daizi left. Xie Shuhong couldn’t help but laugh.

—Wu Tianbai wanted to counterfeit money and tried to persuade Xie Shuhong, who worked at the stationery shop, to find a top-notch fine-line painter to recreate the figure designs on the banknotes. Xie Shuhong was swayed by his words and began to waver. During the holidays, Liang Xiang took his mother to the hospital. Just as he was about to pay the bill, he learned that Duke Ayakura had already paid for everything.

Liang Xiang’s mother had no problems with her lungs, but smoking could trigger asthma attacks, so the doctor advised her to quit smoking. Liang Xiang’s mother asked Xie Shuhong to buy meat for her. As she was helping stoke the fire to cook the meat, Liang Xiang arrived, and Xie Shuhong left when she saw him. Liang Xiang explained to his mother that he had met Xie Shuhong on the ship.

He said Xie Shuhong and Wu Tianbai were quite sensitive about his imperial family background, but his mother didn’t mind. The military students gathered at Songlin, creating a lively atmosphere. Xie Shuhong delivered the payment for Mr. Zhu Wentong from Wan Shan Stationery. Following up on his painting, she asked if he could paint the portrait for a banknote. When Mr. Zhu learned that she was asking on behalf of revolutionaries, he repeatedly said it was a pity. Then he returned the payment to Xie Shuhong, saying it was a donation to the revolutionary party.
