How could Xiao Letian not be angry? Ever since Zai Chun came into contact with the British side, he realized that this brat had some strange thoughts.
Although everyone had already guessed that Zai Chun leaving the party was unavoidable, once it really happened right in front of their eyes, they still found it hard to accept it emotionally.
Especially Xiang Ying, who was even more indignant as he said, ”Master, I've already said this before, the Tarantula Emperor is not worth nurturing. Although we don't dare to deny your strategy, don't you think that you have given him too much and restricted him too little?”
”He seems to have forgotten who saved him from which prison in the four directions. If he didn't leave the Forbidden City, would he still have the same experience as he has today? He still wants to have his own independent new guard army? ”
”hyacinth who doesn't know how to be grateful, with just a simple gesture of her hand, she went to Buckingham Palace to be a filial son and grandson. Now, she doesn't even have a basic operational report, she doesn't even send me her daily schedule. Her wings have really grown!”
Xiao Letian listened to Xiang Ying's complaints and smiled. The students opposite him were currently performing Shakespeare's drama for him.
On the surface, he pretended to be happy, but the low voice Chinese could not suppress Xiao Letian's anger. What is this place? Don't you know that the wall has ears? ”How do you know there are no Chinese scouts among these people?”
”If the emperor is not secretive, the emperor will lose his official position. If the official is not secretive, he will lose his dignity. If the law is not classified, it will be harmful!”
Xiang Ying's neck shrank back as he did not dare say anything, as he hurriedly retreated half a step with an embarrassed look on his face. Right at this time, the students' performance had reached the end, and all the guests present applauded passionately, while he took this opportunity to cover his embarrassment up with applause.
Although he scolded Xiang Ying on the surface, the unhappiness in his heart was actually the same as everyone else's. Tongzhi Emperor had displayed a tendency to be independent so early on, and he was extremely decisive as well.
Was it really as Xiang Ying had said, the big plan was not wrong, but the force was too light in the process of implementation? Could it be that he really had to tie a few straps around Zai Chun's neck to let him know how powerful he was?
Xiao Letian fell into deep thought.
However, when the Chinese were filled with righteous indignation, Tongzhi did not look the least bit worried. Back in Britain, he had enjoyed the glory that he had never received before.
Sir Gordon came to Buckingham Palace early in the morning to wait for the Emperor. He could already be considered a subject of the British double system, the Great Qing did not strip him of his position and title, nor did the United Kingdom express any opposition to his dual official status. This allowed him to appear adept in handling diplomatic affairs.
Upon seeing Emperor Tongzhi, Gordon did not have the slightest bit of arrogance left in him, and immediately hit him on the ground. Other than kneeling and bowing because he could not do so, he had the attitude a subject should have when facing an emperor.
”Long live, long live, long live the Emperor! This subject, Gordon, pays his respect to the Emperor! ”
After giving her face so much, Tongzhi smiled so hard that his eyes were almost narrowed into slits. ”Good, good, good! ”We will remember your loyalty. Someone come, reward you!”
With a command, the treasure-keeper eunuch Man Shun brought out a small lacquer box and placed it in the hands of his majesty. The emperor had also learned how to buy people's hearts, he actually personally brought this lacquer box into Gordon's hands.
”It's rare that you still remember the position of Great Qing. It's rare that you still remember us. We reward you with this!”
Gordon opened the lacquer box and saw that it was actually an ink-black jade thumb ring.
Gordon was a knowledgeable person, he knew how obsessed the Chinese people were towards jade, so any jade that the emperor collected was definitely of the highest quality.
