"The first stop is the descendants of Commander Mitchell in England?"

Wu Tianyuan was on the plane studying Niu Feng's latest information, a letter from Mitchell, a British soldier of the Eight-Nation Alliance.

In October 1860, the Anglo-French forces participating in the Second Opium War defeated the Qing army commanded by Seng Lingqin at the Bali Bridge in Tongzhou, and then went straight to the Old Summer Palace, preparing to capture Emperor Xianfeng, who lived in the garden. On the evening of October 6, the vanguard came to the Old Summer Palace, repelled dozens of guards guarding the gate of the garden, entered the garden, and began to take some small items with the sheep.

At 6 a.m. the next Sunday, Sir Elgin and Mitchell, the commander of the British army, also arrived at the Old Summer Palace. In consultation with the French commander-in-chief, the Allied Command ordered that looting be free and looting became open.

During the robbery, the British paid more attention to porcelain, cloisonné, antique paintings, clocks and other antiques, so that they could bring back to Britain as items to commemorate the battle, while the French paid more attention to more tangible interests, and looted mostly gold, silver, precious stones, brocade, jade, pearls, leather goods and other items.

Later, General Mitchell formed a trophy committee to select the treasures for Queen Victoria from the park's collection, as well as the trophies for the army's Community Chest.

Montauban of France also ordered that some of the finest treasures be selected from the precious furnishings of the Old Summer Palace to be dedicated to Napoleon III and Empress Eugenie. These trophies are now on display in the China Room of the Château de Fontainebleau in France and in the living room of Napoleon III in the Louvre.

"According to Niu Feng's investigation, Mitchell's descendant is now called Sir Louis, who has been living in London and is almost eighty years old."

Wu Tianyuan planned his trip, and this time he traveled alone to Europe, mainly to England and France. It was these two countries that robbed the Old Summer Palace back then, and they were the culprits.

"Fortunately, the university has been looking at professional materials, and my English is not bad, so I have no problem coping with daily life, and I don't need to find a translator."

Wu Tianyuan opened a Swiss bank account in advance, and it will be convenient for Taobao all over the world in the future, and this time he is full of confidence.

It was late at night when I arrived in London, so I stayed at the hotel first, and the next day I went directly to the castle where Louris lived to inquire about the news.

"What? Old Sir is paralyzed in bed? ”

Money can make ghosts grind, and this is common all over the world. Wu Tianyuan spent five hundred pounds to buy a gardener in the castle and get the latest news.

"The poor old man has no descendants in his life, and his son died in a car accident a few years ago, and the doctor said that he could last up to half a month."

Wu Tianyuan nodded, and with a whim, he took out another five hundred pounds, asking the gardener to find a chance to take out a jazz belongings.

That afternoon, the gardener stole out a silver necklace, and Wu Tianyuan hurriedly interrogated to see if there was any news of the treasure.

"You said there's a secret room under the castle?"

"Of course, the ancestor of Sir was also a commander back then, and he was valued by the empress, but then gradually declined, and now he doesn't even have a descendant!"

The silver necklace sighed: "It's also to blame that the lady was not good back then, and drove away the maid who was pregnant with the old man, otherwise there would be a descendant to send her to the end, right?" ”

Wu Tianyuan asked curiously, it turned out that Lou Eryi was drunk once when he was young and had a relationship with a maid, and the secret knot of the pearl fetus was discovered by his wife. In order to prevent others from taking advantage of the situation, he drove the maid out of the castle, and her whereabouts were unknown.

Now it is also retribution, my wife and son are dead, there is not even a descendant, and there is no one to inherit the Nuoda inheritance.

"Can you sense the location of that descendant?"

"Yes, originally I was two necklaces, one big and one small, I'll take you there!"

Wu Tianyuan hurriedly followed the instructions of the silver necklace and came to a dilapidated small house in the suburbs, and happened to see a blonde girl drying clothes.

"Did you see the silver necklace on her? That's her! ”

Wu Tianyuan stepped forward and inquired about the girl's name Jenny, eighteen years old, the family was alone, her mother died early, and now she lives on odd jobs.

"Jenny, here'...... thing"

Wu Tianyuan didn't talk nonsense, and directly sued her, saying that she might be Sir Louis's biological daughter!

"This? Impossible, right? ”

Jenny looked incredulous, she was born in poverty since she was a child, and she grew up dependent on her sick mother, and her father was never mentioned.

"It is estimated that your mother is to protect you, afraid of being hurt by bad people, and would rather you live safely."

Wu Tianyuan said with a smile: "Now the old knight needs you, he has no descendants when he dies, and you can't bear to watch him leave alone?" ”

Jenny is a kind girl, although she doesn't believe it, she is still willing to follow Wu Tianyuan to find Sir and verify it.

Through the introduction of the gardener, they met the old butler Jim, who knew this very well, and had spent no less money to find the whereabouts of the mother and son over the years. Today, I took the initiative to come to the door and quickly find someone to do a paternity test.

"You are really a young lady who has been lost for many years, the lord has been looking for your mother and daughter, and finally ......"

After confirming her identity, Jenny is indeed the daughter of Old Sir Sir! Jim hurried to take her to see her dying father, and the two of them hugged each other and cried.

"Jim, get a lawyer, I'm going to make a new will and leave all my property to Jenny, quick!"

The old knight is not confused, the property that was originally going to be auctioned and sold now has an heir, and while he is still sober, he hurriedly makes a new will.

Wu Tianyuan has been with Jenny, and after three days, everything was finally done, and the old sir also died, and she officially became the legal heir of the castle!

Jim, the old butler, did his best to help Jenny, and the family soon settled down. Wu Tianyuan sighed that it is no wonder that British housekeepers in the world are the most popular, and they are so loyal and loyal, they have absolutely nothing to say!

"Dear Wu, thanks to your help this time, otherwise I would still be that poor girl, how can I repay you?"

Jenny can now be said to have flown on the branches and become a phoenix, although the jazz has declined, but the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, and this castle alone is worth enough for her to live the rest of her life without food and clothing.

"Actually, I am an antique dealer, this time I came to London to find lost Chinese cultural relics, according to the information, your ancestor was the leader of the Eight-Nation Alliance, and it is possible to collect a lot of looted cultural relics."

Wu Tianyuan told the truth and proposed to go around the castle to see if there were any cultural relics.

Jenny immediately took Wu Tianyuan to visit the castle, in fact, she also had a comprehensive look at the new home for the first time, and she was very excited.

"This should be the study, and it's my first time here, so see for yourself."

Wu Tianyuan nodded, began to look for clues, and after communicating with the bookshelf, he walked to a bronze statue and finally found the mechanism.

"This is the Chamber of Secrets?"

The two of them walked into the small room behind the bookshelf, where there were a lot of antiques, and Wu Tianyuan quickly picked up a book of poems.

"Qianlong Yuanmingyuan landscape poems up and down!"

Jenny saw Wu Tianyuan's excited appearance and asked curiously, "This is what you want to find cultural relics?" ”

"Jiaqing Old Summer Palace Eight Scenery Poems!"

"This is the laurel tree in the moon, the moon rabbit jade seal!"

"Red coral squirrel birthday ornament!"

Wu Tianyuan looked at more than a dozen treasures from the Old Summer Palace, and was excited, but he didn't expect that these lost cultural relics of the Old Summer Palace would be found soon.

There is a small recommendation, ask for some recommendation votes, thank you!
