"Lord Ben doesn't need to ask, you know that your name is Lan Xiang, and you are the personal maid of Angel's shopkeeper Sangyu." Wu Jianzhang looked at the delicate and immature little girl in front of him quite complacently on the yamen of his "Antelope" Daotai, "Do you know why Lord Ben 'invited' you here?" He deliberately said the word "please" in a heavier tone, and then propped up the table with both hands, leaned forward, and looked at Lan Xiang with a smile.
Lan Xiang blinked a pair of clear big eyes, looked at the few big men on the left and right, and then looked at Lord Daotai, and shook his head, "If you go back to your lordship, the little girl was scared by them, how can you know why?" β
"Alas!" Wu Jianzhang sighed with some pity, "Lan Xiang, why bother, if Lord Ben doesn't know that you and your master are friends of the bandits in the city, can I invite you here?" Don't think that what you did was perfect and self-righteous, in fact, Lord Ben has been paying attention to you for a long time. But why didn't Lord Ben touch you? β
Wu Jianzhang walked out from behind the table and circled around Lan Xiang, "You don't know that Lord Ben is one of the seven major shareholders of Qichang Foreign Bank, and Qichang Foreign Bank and your Angel Commercial Bank are partners. If nothing else, it's just for the sake of my own strength, and my lord won't be embarrassed by you. It's just that the official body can't help himself, and the errand handed over from above must always be confused. As long as you truthfully admit that you are all the way to the bandits in the city, Lord Ben can make up an excuse to blame others for smuggling weapons to the bandits, and we are still friends and continue to earn our money. β
"My lord, you can't harm the little girl," Lan Xiang looked dazed and at a loss, "The little girl is just a maid, running around and serving the master's life, what kind of business, bandits, little women don't touch anything." Adults can't push a little woman at the bandits. β
"yes, you don't know anything?" Wu Jianzhang walked towards the table, "Then you tell Lord SΓΉ Ben, why did you enter the city again and again?" Don't tell Lord SΓΉmoto, it's just for the fun of the city. β
Lan Xiang seemed to be about to cry aggrieved, "My lord, who wants to run towards a place where there are guns and cannons, not all of them are our wives, they like to eat snacks in the City God Temple, and they always have to eat one or two things every once in a while." There is something interesting in the city, every time you have to break the bank, otherwise it will be difficult to enter, and you have to be afraid, for fear that the soldiers in the city will arrest the little girl as something fine. Alas, if it weren't for the fact that the little girl was a parishioner, she wouldn't have known what was wrong......"
is another "religious citizen", Wu Jianzhang's nose is almost crooked. Damn, if you get into foreigners, you will be popular, and those who have nothing to do have become parishioners. He looked at the few things that had been found from Lan Xiang on the table, a bamboo basket, a white cloth towel, a fragrant pancreas that a woman liked to use wrapped in white paper, and according to his thoughts, he could not find a letter or anything like that.
"Don't think that if you claim to be a religious person, and you are a girl from a big family, this adult can't rectify you. Sue you, Lord Ben has received definite news that you have sent a letter to the bandits in the city. Wu Jianzhang turned his head, his face turned cold, "Obediently hand over the letter you brought." Also, what do you and your lady want to do when you and your lady have been to the Seabird more than once? To be honest, there are benefits to you, otherwise, looking at your softness and weakness, I am afraid that you will not be able to endure a lot of suffering. β
"My lord, the little woman is really wronged!" Lan Xiang cried out pitifully, but there was a sneer in her heart. Your dog officer is right, my aunt and grandmother came with a letter, but unfortunately, the letter is in front of you, and you can't see it. In fact, Lan Xiang herself still can't figure out why the secret letter that Madame asked her to bring into the city was always a white piece of paper used to wrap the fragrant pancreas, and there were no words on it at all.
This kind of secret message is the means of communication that Aihua began to use after coming to Shanghai. The letter was written on a blank sheet of paper in rice soup, and when it reached Liu Lichuan's hand, as long as he sprayed it with iodine wine obtained from the church-run hospital, the handwriting would be revealed. Lan Xiang naturally didn't understand, and Wu Jianzhang didn't understand it even more.
Until midnight, Lan Xiang hadn't come back, and Sang Yu and Ai Hua were in a hurry. The work of the "Seabird" has progressed to the last moment, and it urgently needs the cooperation of Liu Lichuan in the city.
"It seems that I have to go to the city immediately, if I can't bring back a group of sailors from Liu Lichuan, our plan will be a water ticket. Now it is rumored everywhere that King An's Eastern Expeditionary Army has won Changshu, Wuxi and other places, and will soon attack Suzhou. As soon as Suzhou is concerned, King An will inevitably come to Shanghai immediately, and he must get this ship of munitions out before King An's men and horses come to Shanghai. Aihua put on his tuxedo coat and went to get the mink coat from the hanger.
"You can't go!" Sang Yu grabbed Aihua, "I know Lan Xiang, she is an extremely capable girl. Since he hasn't returned yet, there must have been some accident. If it falls into the hands of the Qing Demon, they will definitely pay more attention to our people. Go now, and it will give them a hand. β
"It's dangerous to do anything, but you can't help it." Ai Hua looked at Sang Yu stubbornly, "For the sake of the Celestial Empire, what does it matter if you lose this life." β
"Stupid words!" Sang Yu pressed him to the chair and said sternly, "We are a secret intelligence station, and we must take the overall situation into account in everything, and we can't be rash." I'm the stationmaster, and you must obey my commands! β
"I'm ......" Ai Hua was discouraged, lowered his head, and stopped talking.
Seeing Ai Hua's puffed appearance, Sang Yu smiled lightly and patted him on the shoulder, "You, you just haven't grown up." β
"I didn't grow up?" Aihua stiffened her neck unconvinced, "If it weren't for... Because..., I won't come to this hellish place to get angry. β
Hearing Aihua say this, Sang Yu laughed, "You, you're embarrassed to say it." When she was chatting in her spare time, she had already learned about Aihua's "glorious history" from Aihua's own mouth, and now she felt even more funny when she said it.
"Look, you said you weren't allowed to laugh at me, you're here again." Aihua blushed and grunted embarrassedly.
"No, people aren't laughing at you. You're a big hero of the Golden Iron Horse, okay? Sang Yu hurriedly covered her mouth, "Okay, tomorrow you still do the previous arrangement, and I will do the rest." You must remember to get on the 'Seabird' as little as possible, and leave everything there to Mr. Fang. β
She went to the hanger to take off her coat and looked back at Aihua, "You can rest first, I'll go find Bishop Luo Xiaoquan." He also opened a hospital in the city, which made it easy to enter the city. β
"That's... What about Lan Xiang? Aihua looked at Sang Yu worriedly.
"Don't worry, as long as she's still in this world, I'll be able to find her." Sang Yu said firmly.
