Chapter 115: Offering Treasure

"The old man thinks that without further ado, these things should be handed over to the palace as soon as possible. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 info" Xu Run said, "If it is known to the enemies of the adults, it will be a big disaster to call the official Shangben to impeach." ”

"What the gentleman said is very true, but if you hand it over to the palace, you have to have a reason to do it." Lin Yizhe paced around the house with some annoyance, "How this thing came about, you have to explain it, otherwise, it will be a big trouble." ”

"Don't worry, adult, this matter is not difficult to do, maybe, once this thing is handed over, it can be exchanged for the future of adults." Xu Run thought about it and thought about it.

"What do you mean by that, sir?" Lin Yizhe turned around abruptly and looked directly at Xu Run.

"These porcelains were originally collected by the Old Summer Palace, and were scattered overseas because of the Battle of Gengshen, and the imperial court spent a lot of money in order to recover such treasures in the past. Moreover, this is also the 'heaven and earth a spring' Tibetan porcelain, the queen mother lived here in the past, this kind of porcelain should be very familiar, see the old cherished things, know that the adult is always concerned about the royal family, will be happy. Maybe you'll even be rewarded. Xu Run said, "As for the source, you don't need to say that it was given by the Dharma Master, you just need to say that you have found it from France." Even if the official heard about it, he couldn't say anything else. ”

"That's very good." Lin Yizhe listened to Xu Run's analysis, and made up his mind, "Then bother Mr. Lao to prepare a draft for me, this matter must be done as soon as possible, so as not to cause trouble when the news comes out." ”

"Don't worry, sir. Rotten will do it. ”

Seeing off Xu Run, Lin Yizhe looked at the "Heaven and Earth Family Spring" cherished porcelain on the table, and then looked at the "Baohe Taiji" green jade seal, and shook his head with a wry smile.

He knew in his heart that Napoleon III and his wife had no ill will in giving him these gifts, and that the gifts they had chosen could also be said to have taken some painstaking steps to express their gratitude to themselves. However, they really don't understand China's "national conditions" so they don't know how much trouble and even their lives will be in their own hands.

"I hope you don't make me any more moths." Lin Yizhe said secretly.

At this time, Lin Yizhe thought that this was just the beginning of this storm.

Hangzhou, Yuanbao Hutong, Hu Xueyan private.

The summer heat in Hangzhou was unbearable, Hu Xueyan, who had breakfast, was enjoying the shade in the garden with his wife and concubines, and his confidant Lu Qingyun hurried over and whispered a few words to Hu Xueyan on the recliner.

Hu Xueyan's eyebrows raised, and his body couldn't help but straighten up.

"Hehe, I didn't expect him to be quite capable! was able to get in touch with Fa Chief. Hu Xueyan got up, the two concubines stepped forward and fanned him with the fan in his hand, he waved his hand, and the concubine retreated.

Hu Xueyan took a delicate folding fan and shook it gently while pacing in the garden.

"Fornication with foreign countries, this matter is in the ministry, we don't need to do it, this fire will definitely be enough for him." Hu Xueyan was a little excited, "But, it's okay not to be rude, if I don't add more fire to him, I'm really sorry for him." ”

"Yes, it would be a pity if this opportunity was missed." Lu Qingyun said.

"Find a few imperial histories and get this done. How to do it, you know. Hu Xueyan said, the folding fan in his hand was suddenly closed, and a light appeared in his eyes, "Lord Zuo, also inform him, he can know the news, our fire is over, if it doesn't work, Lord Zuo can just make a move." ”

"Yes."

After Lu Qingyun left, Hu Xueyan imagined Lin Yizhe wearing a flail and locks and Chen Wan crying and screaming, and his heart was happy for a while.

"Self-inflicted, don't live, hehe, I'll see what you do this time!"

Beijing, Forbidden City, Yang Xin Palace, Xinuan Pavilion.

The sun is shining outside the window, there is a hot wind blowing in from time to time, there is no cloud in the blue sky, and from time to time there are flocks of pigeons flying by, making bursts of pigeon whistles, which provokes the Empress Dowager Cixi in the Xinuan Pavilion for an inexplicable irritability.

Although she had just taken the chilled lotus leaf porridge, the Empress Dowager Cixi still felt unbearable heat, and at this time, she couldn't help but miss the days in the Old Summer Palace.

Due to the unbearable heat of Beijing in summer, the emperor's center of government affairs was sometimes not in the Forbidden City, but in the gardens of the Old Summer Palace. But since the burning of the Old Summer Palace, this rule has been gone. Since the beginning of the Tongzhi Dynasty, she can only nest in this big and stuffy Forbidden City, accompanying her son to spend this difficult time.

Today's recital is not much, the Empress Dowager Cixi is rarely busy, watching that Emperor Tongzhi has been able to review the recital independently, and has not been in vain for his many years of teaching. Thinking that she had lived up to the trust of Emperor Xianfeng, she felt a little relieved in her heart.

Yes, in a few days, after the emperor's wedding, she will be able to return to the emperor and unload this burden.

Just when she was excited, the chief eunuch Liu Chengyin walked in quickly.

Looking at the newly sent piece of music from the Military Aircraft Department that Liu Chengyin was holding in his hand, the Empress Dowager Cixi couldn't help frowning. She looked at the gold enamel "Joy Elephant Shengping" Western table clock in the corner and asked, "Why is it late today?" ”

"Back to the Queen Mother, today the Prime Minister Yamen received a note from France, and the Military Aircraft Department is still discussing, so it's a little late."

"Oh? What's the matter? Been talking about it for so long? The Empress Dowager Cixi asked, "Could it be that there is no lesson plan?" ”

"Back to the Queen Mother's words, the servants didn't inquire, hehe, but it's definitely not a matter of the lesson plan, it seems that the French want to thank us Daqing for helping them." Liu Chengyin said with a smile, placing the book on top of the bookcase, "The slave thinks that it should be a good thing." ”

"It's just a thank-you, such a simple matter, it still has to be discussed for so long, and the poor work of the Military Aircraft Department is really getting more and more roundabout." Empress Dowager Cixi snorted, a look of displeasure flashing in her eyes.

Emperor Tongzhi, who was reviewing the chapter, stole a glance at his mother, obviously aware of something.

"The so-called good things come in pairs, and there is another good thing today, and the slave has to report it to the queen mother." Liu Chengyin, as the chief eunuch who was favored by the Empress Dowager Cixi after An Dehai, of course, has the ability to observe her face, and he immediately began to talk about things that made the Empress Dowager Cixi happy, "The slave didn't want to disturb the Empress Dowager here, but I really can't wait, hehe, the slave is here, I will say hello to the Empress Dowager first." ”

"Oh? What's the good thing? Let's hear it. Empress Dowager Cixi's furrowed brows furrowed.

Unlike An Dehai, who can only bend his will, Liu Chengyin has always been cautious of his duties, never lied, and spoke kindly and funny, talking and laughing can make people suddenly brightened, and the Empress Dowager Cixi trusted him very much, and after An Dehai was killed by Ding Baozhen, the governor of Shandong, for leaving the palace without permission, she proposed Liu Chengyin to replace An Dehai. Now Liu Chengyin can't wait to report the good news to herself, which is naturally something that makes her happy.

"The shipmaster found a batch of rare porcelain that was lost in the palace for the queen mother. The slave knew that the queen mother must be happy to see it, and someone had already put it in the room for the queen mother. Liu Chengyin said, "In today's notebook, there is this matter, and the Queen Mother will be able to see it in a while." ”

"You bring that notebook first, and I'll take a look." Empress Dowager Cixi's eyes flashed with surprise and said.

Liu Chengyin stepped forward, found Lin Yizhe's recital, and presented it to the Empress Dowager Cixi.

Due to the successful transformation of the "Wannian Qing", the imperial court was very satisfied, and Lin Yizhe's "Franco-Prussian War Chronicle" and "French Division Ship Chart" opened the eyes of the bigwigs of the Military Aircraft Department.

The Empress Dowager Cixi opened Lin Yizhe's notebook and looked at the head, which was written about the construction of the "Fubo" class transport ship and the delivery of the "Fubo" and "Yongbao" two ships to China Merchants for use. The Empress Dowager Cixi didn't finish reading it, but she noticed that there was still a clip in the notebook, so she took it. She glanced at it, and her face immediately changed, and she slammed the notebook shut.

"Liu Chengyin, have you seen everything?" There was a rare tremor in her voice.

"Back to the Empress Dowager's words, the servants have all inspected them one by one, a total of 16 bottles, plates, honors, etc., all of which are pastel, and the ...... of the Yongzheng official kiln" Liu Chengyin was interrupted by Cixi before he finished speaking.

"Quick! Take me to see it! ”

When Cixi, who returned to Chuxiu Palace, looked at the sixteen pieces of porcelain placed in the pavilion that originally belonged to the "Heaven and Earth Family Spring", a little tears oozed from the corners of her eyes.

Liu Chengyin carefully observed the expression of the Empress Dowager Cixi, who knew that Liu Chengyin was looking at her, so she took out her handkerchief, pretended to wipe her sweat, and quickly wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes.

In front of outsiders, she will never reveal the weak side of a woman.

Only this time, she really couldn't suppress the excitement in her heart.

Cixi came to the flower stand where the celestial globe vase with the inscription of the poem was placed, gently stroked the smooth glaze, and hummed softly.

Liu Chengyin heard that the Empress Dowager Cixi was humming the song "Sunny Day", and couldn't help but be stunned.

Cixi, who was humming a small song, had a strange look on her face, like a girl who was pregnant with spring.

From entering the palace to the present, it was the first time he had seen the Empress Dowager Cixi behave like this.

"Does it sound good?"

"The queen mother sings beautifully, and the slave is full of ears this time." Liu Chengyin immediately praised with a smile.

"I haven't sung for many years, and I'm a little rusty...... "Empress Dowager Cixi laughed, "Actually, it was better to sing back then." ”

"Back then, in 'Heaven and Earth Family Spring', the first emperor liked the little songs I sang......" Without waiting for Liu Chengyin's interface, Cixi talked about the past by herself, as if she was telling Liu Chengyin or herself.

"After I entered the palace, I lived in the 'Heaven and Earth Family Spring', these bottles, are placed in the 'Daya Zhai', the paintings on them are all painted by famous painters in the Ruyi Museum, 'Daya Zhai' is the place where I learned to paint, I was still depicted according to the paintings on this ......"
