C800 Shut up! Emperor! (1/2)
Shut up! Emperor!
Hiding in the ammunition depot, three Chinese were munching on bread and sausage, drinking a bottle of whiskey.
”Master Yang, your good days are here after you escaped from the Ryukyu. With the secret of the paper money, can't you get rich and die in the future? ”Don't forget to bring the rest of the brothers …”
”Sure, sure. Since my brothers saved me with their lives, how could I not have a few friends? ”It's a pity that my wives …”
”Tsk, you're rich and you're afraid of not having a woman? When we reach Hong Kong, I'll pick out a few beauties for you in Guangzhou. That pigeon milk, that three inch golden lotus … Tsk tsk tsk tsk, this is simply the best! ”
's desolate feeling of abandoning his family's property was quickly washed away by the beautiful expectations of his future life. Humans were like this, as long as their shoes get wet, it didn't matter, and this was also the same for women. This was the first time that they had an affair, maybe it was their first time feeling guilty, but as long as they got used to it, it would be natural.
The three of them chatted about the beauties and delicacies in all parts of the Great Qing, the good things that the steward would use, the good things that the servants would do, and the good things that the cooks would use. Gradually, the warship drew closer to Hong Kong.
During the days when Yang Zhi and the others were escaping through the British battleship, the Ryukyu and the Great Qing Dynasty were already at loggerheads because of this spy incident.
Firstly, the Prime Minister's Manor expressed endless anger at Weng Tonghe's envoy, and following this, the size of the welcoming ceremony for the envoy plummeted.
Originally, Shang Tai and Xiao Letian had attended the welcoming ceremony, but in the end, the two of them did not appear. Only the officials of Ryukyu's Department of Rites and Rites were able to conduct a simple ceremony and move from Shouli City to the Hall of Rites.
Originally, the banquet had turned into a teahouse party, and the ISI had turned from not being able to listen to orders to following closely behind. Feng Fu and the others protested a few times, but to no avail, they didn't even see Xiao Letian face to face.
Weng Tonghe's treatment of diplomacy was tactful, it was difficult to see him getting angry. On the battlefield, Xiao Letian was a general who shouted crazily, but once he came to the diplomatic scene, he would become tactful and tactful, even if Ci Xi was standing in front of him, he would probably joke around.
This was Xiao Letian's unique personality and charisma, as well as the quality an outstanding and mature politician should have. Qing Dynasty's actions today had obviously touched Xiao Letian's bottom line.
Inside the Hall of Rites, Weng Tonghe and Zai Chun could no longer sit still. The two of them walked around the room randomly, and the old man shook his head and asked, ”Why is it like this? Just now, the Ministry of Rites said that the King of Ryukyu had already sent a protest message to Beijing, saying that if they do not give the Ryukyu an explanation, they will expel the envoy and terminate the Ministry of Revenue's bond underwriting plan … ”
”It's rebelling, it's really rebelling, a little Ryukyu actually dares to be so tyrannical, and criticizes the main country so much?”
Zai Chun's performance today was far more calm than his master's. In this world, strength is the only thing that matters. Other people are just too strong, isn't that because we're too weak? ”So what if it is the Subordinate States? Back then when Emperor Gao Zu was still alive, didn't the Yingyi still come to Beijing to pay respects and ask for a trade with us? But a few decades later, in the Daoguang years, the Yingyi dared to start a war with us …”
”Forget about the Ryukyu, just based on the military strength of our current Ryukyu, we are not a match for them …” Do you expect the imperial army to cross the sea and punish Ryukyu? ”
