Chapter 205: They are all people who understand
In the morning, when the sun had just risen, the officers and soldiers defending the city pushed open the heavy city gate with all their might, and saw a fast horse galloping towards them. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 Before the two officers and soldiers who opened the city gate could react, they only felt a gust of wind blowing by.
When they looked up, they saw a fast horse that had gone away and galloped down the main street of the city, and was almost lost in the blink of an eye.
The two officers and soldiers muttered twice, and without paying too much attention, after opening the city gate, they hid back on the castle tower and slept for a while.
The fast horse rushed straight to the center of the city, but the speed was still unabated, and it galloped towards the Pearl River port in the south of the city, and soon disappeared into the foreigner's concession.
After returning from Wanyan Building yesterday, Neri had an unpleasant quarrel with Hai Qianjin. Last night, he didn't sleep until almost dawn, but a sound of horses woke him up again.
Neri got up irritably, and just wanted to come out and scold those guys who didn't have long eyes, but saw one of his subordinates running to him in a panic and said, "General, the capital has sent an urgent express." ”
Neri looked at his men in front of him, and the anger on his face turned to surprise. The news in the capital is what he is most concerned about these days, and every time news comes he is very excited.
This time, Nerry was no exception, grabbed the envelope casually, turned back to the house, and locked the door casually.
Disgusted that the light in the house was too dim, Neri immediately lit the oil lamp, and then opened the envelope and read the letter by the oil lamp. At first his face was full of excitement, but after a few moments, he became angry.
For no other reason, the content of this letter is the ultimatum given by the little emperor to their foreigners. If two ships and a few guns were not delivered within a month, the little emperor would have beheaded Peter and all his men.
Such news made Neri feel incredible, but it was clearly written in black and white. He watched it several times in a row to make sure that he was not mistaken, and the emperor who was completely similar to the Qing Dynasty would be so tough!
Neri's chest rose and fell violently, and the expression on his face gradually became hideous, and at this moment he had the idea of leading his troops directly to the capital.
Struggling to contain his anger, Neri reopened the door and called out to the man he had just served: "The messenger is there, call him to me, quick!" ”
Neri's fury frightened the men in front of him, and he hurriedly ran away with a promise, not daring to have any delay.
Soon after, a soldier who had nearly collapsed was carried to Nari's house and looked at the messenger like a beggar. Nari's eyes were full of anger: "What happened in the capital, tell General Ben word for word." If you dare to hide anything, watch out for your dog's head. ”
A trace of fear flashed on the face of the soldier lying on the stretcher, and then he quickly responded: "General, this letter was sent by the supreme commander, and the little one doesn't know what happened in the capital?" ”
At this time, Neri came to his senses, as the messenger said, he was just a small messenger, and he really did not have the ability to know some more detailed information.
After a moment's hesitation, Neri had the messenger carried down, and then ordered someone to summon Hawny to come to his house.
The letter made it very clear that the emperor of the Qing Dynasty was determined to have two ships. The ships that can cross the ocean are big ships, and they are also the support of Neri's power in the Asian seas.
For Nairy, the ship was his life, and without it he had no way out. Under these circumstances, Neri was naturally reluctant to hand it over to the emperor of the Qing Dynasty.
And this can also explain why Ye Shaolong dared to blatantly ban smoking in the provincial capital, it turned out that the emperor of the Qing Dynasty was behind his back.
Thinking of this, Neri suddenly felt a chill, the ship, he would never hand it over, not even one.
"Someone! Go and get the sea daughter to General Ben. Neri gave an order to the other two soldiers who had been left behind, and as soon as he turned around, he went back into the house first.
Hai Qianjin also fell asleep last night when it was almost dawn, and he was seriously sleep-deprived, and after being woken up, he became very irritable.
When he learned that Neri was going to see him, he was visibly stunned. Fortunately, his reaction was quite fast, and after getting out of bed without saying a word, he casually put on his clothes and followed the soldiers who came to report to Neri's bedroom.
Neri sat quietly in the room with a gloomy face, and after all this commotion, he was obviously not as angry as he had been at the beginning.
"Mr. Neri, I wonder what is the matter with the call?" Hai Qianjin's face was full of confusion, and she opened her mouth to ask as soon as she entered the door.
Neri didn't say much, just threw the letter in his hand on the table, pointed to the letter and said, "You can see for yourself first." ”
Hai Qianjin obviously felt the thick murderous aura on Neri's body, and he also chuckled in his heart, and then carefully picked up the envelope and looked at it.
The more she looked, the more Hai Qianjin's brows furrowed. There was a loud 'pop', and the only solid wood table in the room was actually smashed by Hai Qianjin's palm.
Nerry looked at the angry Hai Qianjin in a daze, and really didn't understand why he was so angry. In fact, this matter has nothing to do with him at all, but Hai Qianjin shows such anger, which obviously makes Neri very confused.
"You ......"
As soon as Nerry spoke, he was stopped by Hai Qianjin: "Mr. Nerry, Peter and I are like brothers, and today I learned that the Dog Emperor actually wanted to execute him. My daughter is naturally angry! ”
"Oh!"
Neri let out a sudden sigh, but there was obvious confusion in her eyes. What kind of person is Hai Qianjin, Nari naturally knows in his heart that with a villain like him, he can even run away regardless of the tragic death of his own brother at the hands of Ye Shaolong.
Now he is saying that he is a brother in front of himself, isn't this a clear deception of himself? Nerry snorted coldly in her heart, not believing that Hai Qianjin really had such a deep relationship with Peter.
Neri's expression, Hai Qianjin didn't miss the slightest in his eyes, but he was not in a hurry, and he didn't explain much, and instead sneered: "The Qing Emperor has already given such a condition, it seems that there is no room for negotiation, I wonder if Mr. Neri's ship will be sent or not?" ”
Hai Qianjin's words shocked Neri, and she looked up at him in surprise: "What do you mean by this?" ”
"Don't pretend to be foolish, Mr. Nerry, just as you didn't believe in my relationship with Peter. Actually, I don't believe that you would care about the safety of Peter and his men, and obediently sacrifice two ships to the emperor of the Qing Dynasty. ”
Hai Qianjin's face was full of coldness, and the emotional performance just now turned out to be just for this purpose.
