At this time, beautiful fireworks were set off in the distance, and the light of the fireworks outlined the contours of Lu Yingyan's face in a light green dress to be extraordinarily beautiful, and Lin Yizhe's gaze couldn't help but be a little stupid. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Lu Yingyan sensed that Lin Yizhe was looking at herself, turned her head, and smiled.

"You're going to be in the UK for a while, are you?"

"Yes."

"That's great, we'll have a lot of opportunities to meet, right?"

"Of course. I hope to see Miss Lu often. ”

Hearing that Lin Yizhe did not hide his good impression of himself, Lu Yingyan blushed, lowered her eyebrows, and at the end of the song, Lin Yizhe was still unsatisfied, and invited Lu Yingyan to dance again, at this time, the guests saw that the Chinese envoys were so interested, and they all left the stage, pushing the atmosphere of the dance to a climax.

"Lin seems to have fallen in love with the eldest lady of the Lu family." Chen Hong, who was in the field, put his arms around his wife Sarah's waist and whispered in her ear while dancing.

"Hehe, that's a good thing." Sara glanced at Lin Yizhe and Lu Yingyan, who were dancing in the middle of the dance floor, and a knowing smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, "Lin is really a lucky person, and he will also seize the opportunity." ”

"Hopefully the two of them can make it, and in that case, it will be good for all of us." Chen Hong said with a smile.

"Of course." Sara nodded, her gaze still resting on Lin Yizhe and Lu Yingyan.

And in the seat not far away, the old man Lu Zhongheng watched his daughter and the envoy dancing, and he couldn't help but cry, but there was a smile of relief on his face.

When the banquet ended, when Lu Yingyan returned home, it was already late at night.

Mrs. Lu saw that her red-faced daughter hurriedly locked herself in the room as soon as she came home, and couldn't help but feel strange, and was about to knock on her daughter's door to ask, but was stopped by Lu Zhongheng.

Seeing her husband's happy face, Mrs. Lu was confused for a while.

"In the end, it is our baby daughter, and her heart is high when she is a child, and ordinary men don't look at it at all, so she is waiting today." Lu Zhongheng said to his wife with a smile.

"What did you say, sir?" Mrs. Lu asked in surprise.

"Do you know who our precious daughter has a crush on? Lord Chincha of the Celestial Empire! Lu Zhongheng glanced at his daughter's door and whispered in Mrs. Lu's ear.

"Huh?! Governors? It can't be an old man, right? Mrs. Lu was shocked.

"Huh! I forgot to tell you that Qin Cha is not an old man, but a young offspring! I look at the age of about twenty-four or five years old, not a few years older than Yan'er! That's a talent! The appearance is comparable to Pan An Song Yu, and he is full of knowledge, I heard that he is still Xie Yuan of Fujian Province! Now he is the rank of political envoy, and he was born as a jinshi! Lu Zhongheng's eyebrows fluttered and he said to his wife, "Today, at the wine feast, the old man of the Wu family wanted to make things difficult for him, but he made him admire!" Think about it, can you say that the old man is still young? ”

"At such a young age, the official has done so much, I'm afraid the vision is high enough, right?" When Mrs. Lu heard her husband boast of Lin Yizhe's benefits, not only was she not happy, but she became worried, "Can you take a fancy to our family Yan'er?" In case the flowers fall intentionally, the flowing water is ruthless, and Yan'er falls into lovesickness again......"

"Look at what you said! Can I tell you anything that doesn't have a score? Didn't you see what it was like when Qincha and Yan'er danced! Lu Zhongheng pointed to his eyes, "I'm old, but these photos don't cost yet, what is the meaning of two loves, I can still see it!" ”

He turned his head to look at his daughter's door and pouted, "Look at our baby bump like this today, have you ever had it before?" ”

"This is really a fate to meet thousands of miles away!" Mrs. Lu smiled happily at this point, "Yan'er finally has a lifelong dependence!" ”

"By the way, this Lord Chincha should be married, right?" Mrs. Lu suddenly remembered something important and immediately asked.

"I have inquired, this Lord Qincha is already married, there is a main room and a concubine, the main room is the grandnephew and granddaughter of the old man of the Chen family, and the concubine is his maid for marriage. Now he has a son and a daughter, both of whom are from the main room. Lu Zhongheng said.

"He's already married, shouldn't Yan'er be a little ...... in the past," Mrs. Lu muttered, "I'm just afraid of ......"

"Such a young and handsome man, and an official body, how can there be a reason not to marry in his twenties! Men, three wives and four concubines are also common, not in the way! Lu Zhongheng waved his hand, looked at his daughter's door again, and whispered, "It's late tonight, you will probe Yan'er's tone tomorrow, do you know?" ”

"Yes! Know! At this time, Mrs. Lu was also immersed in the joy brought by her daughter finally meeting the person she wanted. I didn't think about what would happen after that.

At about the same moment, Lin Yizhe, who returned to his apartment, did not sleep, but was thinking about the British gift of ships, although Miss Lu left a good impression on him at the dinner, he was not deeply immersed in the love of children, because he knew that there were more and more important things to do.

Hong Jun's diary: "...... In the afternoon, he went to the house of Chen Gongtingxuan, president of the Anglo-Chinese Chamber of Commerce. After more than ten miles of re-driving, I saw a water machine on the road. And the water that passed through the city was supplied to all the houses. It is tied to the hydraulic iron wheel, its sound is very large, and the water has its own bobbin flow back to each lane, inexhaustible, inexhaustible, and the law is good. Unitary carving, to the Chen family's evening food. On the eve of the year, Wu, Pan, Lu, Luo and other thirteen families according to Chen Gong's invitation, with hundreds of male and female relatives and friends to accompany the seat, the food has the treasures of the mountains and seas, the wine is extremely sweet and sweet, and the slaves come and go, the entertainer comes one after another, the guests and hosts are happy for it, and the leakage is scattered. ”

"On the twelfth, Ding Mao and Chen were traveling westward by wheeled car, all the way to pine oak bushes, thick and long. Yesterday, because the newsprint will be Qin Xian Jing Yue through the place, and a certain time to a certain place, with a detailed notice, so everywhere men and women ant gathered, the car arrived, the old and young chanted the name of the Qin envoy, in order to extend the admiration of the private, the car went to the crown and shook the scarf, and shouted "He Lai" to congratulate him. Its people are hospitable. …… Note: From the lord of the country to the common people, the British people are not allowed to marry with the same surname, and uncles and widows are not forbidden. Those who are forbidden are only siblings, and there are also those who marry privately. The heroine of Jinying and her husband have the same surname. The heroine is solemn and benevolent, and the subjects love her. Since the widowhood, he has not been out of business, has been frugal and has lived alone in the deep palace. All major military affairs and minor affairs of the state are met by the House of Representatives. If the monarch does not allow it, he will enter the court and discuss it again, and if he does not agree with his mind, he will bow down as he is invited. If the British heroine wants to review the sailors of the navy division with me, the House of Representatives will decide whether the officers and soldiers of the Chinese navy division can land in Britain and Turkey. The British heroine went to the dock to review our soldiers, and when she saw that our army was very neat, she was surprised, and said left and right: I don't want the Chinese sailors to be the same. ”

"The establishment of the husband's house, so the declaration of virtue and the affection of the lower are also. The monarchs and people of a united country are united in one mind. All the countries of Europa are the same, not only England. For example, in Switzerland, the country is governed by the township officials elected by the villagers, no princes are established, the country has no harsh government, the customs are frugal and simple, and the military revolution has not been seen for hundreds of years, which is the peach blossom source of the western soil. …… Britain is strong, and those who rely on it are also in love. …… The court has soldiers, punishments, rituals, music, rewards, and punishments, and all major policies, which must be assembled in the upper and lower houses. It is not feasible for the people to be able to do it or not. The people must have the same opinion, and then they can be issued far and near. If China wants to become rich and strong, it must seek its own skills. ”

“…… The sage is the teacher of all things, the body of the Western people is used for its own purposes, the Chinese and foreign ministers work together to govern, do not make mistakes by wandering, do not make mistakes with floating discussions, and make every effort to change for a long time, and respect the cause of the country's primates, then the advantages and disadvantages will be eliminated, and the prosperity will be resolute, as far as the peace, the monarch and the people will be comfortable, and the blessings of China will also ......"

On the west side of Trafalgar Square in London sits a white stone building with two arches, which is known as the Admiralty of the British Empire.

A four-wheeled carriage approached quickly and stopped in front of the Admiralty arch, and the guards in front of the Admiralty noticed that although the carriage was typical of the British style, the door was inlaid with a golden Chinese dragon and phoenix shield emblem pattern, showing the different identities of the visitors who rode it.

Of course, the British guards did not know that the dragon and phoenix badge on the door of the car was the national emblem designed by Hong Jun, the vice minister of the Chinese mission, for the Qing Empire.

The design of this national emblem combines the layout of Western coats of arms with the traditional Chinese pattern of twelve chapters, and its center is the golden harvest, the shield, the axe, the pink rice, the mountain, the sun, and the yellow; On the left are phoenixes, algae, stars, and Zongyi; The right side is the dragon, the moon, the fire, the Zongyi, the outer ring with back lines, not only the pattern is exquisite, but also solemn and elegant. After Hong Jun showed the national emblem he designed to overseas Chinese businessmen, it was well received by everyone, and then Chen Tingxuan ordered craftsmen to rush to make it overnight and decorate it on the carriage he gave to the envoys. Lin Yizhe also liked the design of this national emblem, so he wrote to the British Foreign Office to temporarily replace China's national emblem with this design (the official full promotion and adoption of the national emblem still needs to be reported to the imperial court for approval). And today it came in handy.

Soon, the door of the carriage opened, Lin Yizhe, Hong Jun and the attachés got out of the carriage, and in the other carriages, the accompanying British government officials also walked down and led Lin Yizhe and others into the arch of the Admiralty.

Today, Lin Yizhe came to the British Admiralty to handle the matter of the British king's ship donation.

Seeing the arrival of Lin Yizhe and others, Sir Sidney Dekkes, the First Sea Lord, personally came to greet him, and after some greetings, he got to the point. Soon, an Admiralty officer, who had already been informed, took over a thick piece of information and handed it to the First Sea Lord.

The First Sea Minister took the information and only glanced at it, and his brow furrowed.

"This is the new cruiser you chose? Lieutenant Colonel Coles? ”

"Yes, sir." The British Navy Lieutenant Commander named Coles glanced at Lin Yizhe as if he was inadvertent, faced his immediate superior, and replied in a very affirmative tone.
