Chapter 25: Stripping (3)

"But the identity of Miss Sai, ...... in the end" Tang Jian listened to them talking, and suddenly interjected, but he didn't finish speaking, and stopped halfway.

Sai Jinhua pursed her lips and smiled: "Miss Tang is trying to say, in the end, she is inferior and can't see the light?" ”

She smiled openly, not seeing the haze, Tang Jian didn't mean that she was such a reaction, and was stunned for a moment before pursing her lips and nodded.

"Then Miss Tang thinks that with my status, can I marry someone else as a wife?" Sai Jinhua asked herself and shook her head, "Even if I am still a Qing man back then, Yangzhou Oiran, there is still no man with status who is willing to marry me and go home as a wife, and now I am talking about it." Marrying a concubine, not only to serve the father-in-law, but also to serve the wife, is still the lowest person in the family, that is, to give birth to children, can not call yourself a mother, if there is a bad, pawned and sold, and even resold or even welcomed guests for pleasure, the so-called inferior, is it not even inferior to be a concubine? The smile on the corner of her lips was a little more sarcastic, "It's not that I haven't been married, no matter how low I was at that time, I was small, and I was compromised, and the result of Zuihou was just that." ”

Tang Jian frowned slightly when he heard this, his lips moved, but finally fell silent, as if he was in deep thought.

Her eyes flickered, and Zuihou only looked at Qu Ning: "Most men in the world are lucky, but there are always exceptions, come to think of it, my brother must not let my sister-in-law down, my father married my mother but took a concubine one or two, this is the later tragedy, I think my brother will not be ...... Repeat. ”

The corners of Qu Ning's lips were faintly hooked: The little girl is quite in love with her brother.

She actually wanted to say whether Tang Shaoshuai was lucky or not, and it would not make her sad now. One of their husband and wife relationship has been based on interests from the beginning. Second, since there was no aiqing from the beginning, there is no talk of loss. Only when there is hope, there will be so-called disappointment, if there is no excessive hope in the first place, how can there be disappointment?

But she thought about it for a while, but she didn't say anything to refute it: what is the harm of letting the little girl have a worship mentality for her brother, after all, they are brothers and sisters.

She smiled and opened the topic: "Miss Sai, I took the liberty to come to you today, one is to confirm that you are indeed proficient in foreign languages, after all, this is very important to my Jihua, and the other is to ask you to do me a favor." ”

Sai Jinhua clapped her hands, smiled boldly, and swept away the haze of talking about the situation before: "Her Royal Highness the princess herself is also fluent in foreign languages, so to speak, is it the test for me?" As for those who help or not, Your Highness doesn't have to be polite, just ask. ”

Qu Ning laughed again, but at this time, she was a little more sincere: Sai Jinhua can eat well in Beijing, and she can also eat in the West, she is really very knowledgeable about current affairs.

What is her identity, and what is Sai Jinhua's identity? When she said to help, she was lifting the other person. It is said that "the sedan chair carries people", but if Sai Jinhua really doesn't know how to lift and really regards this as "help", then it is not a good fate, but a lack of acquaintance.

The other party is interested, and she should naturally repay the favor - if she wants others to do things, the benefits must also be given.

"This is actually very simple, similar to what Miss Sai did in Europe back then." Qu Ning said with a smile, "I'm going to hold a big party in a few days, and the people who come and go are all European nobles and ladies, I heard that you have some experience in dealing with them, so I'm going to ask you to advise me for one or two in the next few days, and then I'll be around for me one or two." Of course, if this is done well, you will benefit from it. She said with a smile, "The Eight Great Hutongs are ushered in, is it precarious, I know why you refuse to redeem yourself, but my Uncle Qingwang has a plot against you?" This matter is done, I promise to help you solve the trouble on Uncle Qingwang's side. ”

Sai Jinhua was stunned: "Your Highness even knows this?" Then he frowned slightly, "King Keqing is His Royal Highness's uncle, even if it is His Highness, it will take a lot of effort to meddle in his affairs, right?" ”

Qu Ning smiled and said nothing, but his expression was very determined, and he was reassured when he saw it.

Sai Jinhua glanced at herβ€”she no longer dared to look down on the newlywed woman with a gentle smile as she had done when she had first entered the door. She raised her eyebrows with a flamboyant look, and her whole person softened: "Dare not obey His Highness's orders!" ”

"Alright then, let's take a closer look at how to do this party." Qu Ning smiled.

A few people laughed and talked a few words, and Qu Ning asked her maid to open her dowry box and put out the exquisite blue and white porcelain. There are many dazzling items, and each piece is a treasure.

Sai Jinhua has such eyesight, looking at them one by one, he asked with a smile: "These should be all treasured masterpieces in the palace, right?" Is it Your Highness's dowry? ”

"Hmm." Qu Ning nodded and sighed lightly, "It's all porcelain from this dynasty, and it's still made in a private kiln." Although they are all good things, they can't compare to Yuan Qinghua in the end. However, Yuan Qinghua is a rare treasure, not much survives, that is, I can take it out of the palace, and I don't want to sell it to those foreigners, that's it, I also think that I want to sell them at ten times a hundred times the price in my country. "To bluff foreigners, what do you need? There is blue and white porcelain of this dynasty, which is enough to give them face. Yangyi in this era, as long as they use the right method, their faces are simply written with #People are stupid how quickly they come to grab money#Okay. Of course, the premise is to use it in the right way.

As she spoke, she turned her eyes and stared at Sai Jinhua's surprised face, "Miss Sai, you say, can this be done?" ”

Questions! That's the question she really wants to ask today!

Sai Jinhua immediately had a number in her heart, this is the question given to her by this beautiful woman on the spot, and only if she answers this question, she is qualified to participate in her grand banquet. Otherwise, today would be the end of their relationship.

But she really doesn't care about this matter.

She smiled confidently: "I'll tell His Highness and Miss Tang a joke." More than 100 years ago, the Age of Discovery had just begun, and at that time, people in the far west had just begun to drink green tea and use porcelain. And the East, in their eyes, represents wealth and mystery. It was also at that time that in today's empire on which the sun never sets, in England, a princess who fled from the far east suddenly appeared. The princess was honored by all the nobles, and the Queen of England even bestowed on her the title herself, and her suitors included the Duke, Baron, and Earl. She made a lot of money in the UK, and she simply attracted a lot of money. But this princess Her Royal Highness ...... In fact, it's just a prostitute who is desperate in China and barely survives! She was unexposed until she died! ”

The prostitute is treated as a princess! How did she do it? Are those Europeans so stupid?

Don't they know what kind of pomp and circumstance a real, princess of the Chinese Empire will have, and how can she be exiled to England?

Tang Key's eyes widened in shock.

Qu Ning nodded slightly: "You are the same as I thought." Mystery is what we can do. ”

Several people discussed for a long time, Zuihou sun was slanting westward, and Sai Jinhua finally got up lazily to say goodbye.

Qu Ning and Tang Key sent her to the door, looking at the back of Sai Jinhua leaving, Tang Key looked at Qu Ning with some hesitation: "Sister-in-law...... How do you ...... Wouldn't it be nice for my brother to find out? ”

"Well......" Qu Ning furrowed his brows slightly, and before he could answer, he saw that as soon as the door opened, the young marshal's car drove in from outside, and he happened to pass by Sai Jinhua, and Tang Shaoshuai, who was sitting in the car, seemed to be preoccupied, and he didn't even glance at the car that passed by him.

Tang Jian watched Tang Shaoshuai walk down from the car, walked straight towards them, and tugged Qu Ning's cuffs with a smile: "Sister-in-law, I won't stop you from getting together with your brother." I'll go back to my room first. ”

Qu Ning couldn't stop her, and ran away from behind like a little rabbit.

Tang Shaoshuai walked straight to her side, raised his wrist and glanced at his watch, and raised his thick eyebrows slightly: "The third sister is here with you?" Also, Mrs. Auntie, they came to make trouble? ”

Qu Ning laughed when he heard this: "It's really Xiucai who doesn't go out and knows everything about the world, our young marshal is not at home, and he can't hide anything from you at home?" She stepped forward to straighten the collar of the man's mud-stained coat, gently pulled his arm and carried him back to the main room, "Since the young marshal knows about this, he must also know, I haven't suffered at all, right?" ”

Her smile was bright, and Tang Zhong was stunned, narrowed his eyes, and nodded.

He said "grace" softly, but his face showed a little hesitation.

Qu Ning was keenly aware of it and stopped.

What could make this man hesitate to speak or not?

She turned her head to look at his face, her inquiring gaze falling on his cheek.

Young Marshal Tang let out a long sigh, and finally didn't hide it: "The emperor already knows that the Feng family has sent people to Beijing. So...... He has also decided to go his own way and sign the 21st Article. ”

Qu Ning's eyes widened instantly.

Tang Zhong suddenly clenched Qu Ning's hand, and his words seemed to be squeezed out of between his teeth: "Ning Ning, probably, there is going to be a war." ”

Qu Ning paused.

The Feng family sent people to Beijing, and the two families were to reach a consensus on the emperor's departure and change of the national system.

Before the imperial system, it was still able to survive, because there was still a dream of "constitutional monarchy" hanging above, and it was precisely because the Tang family and the Feng family were jealous of each other that the emperor had room to survive by swaying between the cracks.

But now if the Feng family and the Tang family reconcile, then the next step will inevitably be for the emperor to leave the palace and the state system to change.

And this is the future that cannot sit idly by today.

The emperor has always been pro-Japanese, but the price he paid before was not enough to tie Japan firmly to his chariot, but twenty-one was signed, most of the interests of the Northeast were sold, and Japan was given the title of "righteousness" to be able to start a war with the Tang family.

Even for their own interests in the Kanto state, Japan will inevitably be on the side of the emperor. In this way, the Tang family is equivalent to ...... Enemy on the belly and back.

Qu Ning also heard her own words as if she was stagnant: "Wait, how could the imperial brother know that someone from the Feng family came to Beijing?" No, my imperial sister-in-law, she also knew about my relationship with you back then, right," her words became difficult, and when she looked up, she met his eyes that seemed to have a faint look of compassion, "Is there a mole around me?" ”
