488 Provocation by the Portuguese
Lin Fei was stunned for a moment and asked, "Shangguan Yunlong said that there is something important, what important things can he have?" ”
"Report to Your Majesty, Captain Shangguan's expression is extremely heavy, it seems that there is indeed a very, very important matter."
"Okay, let Shangguan Yunlong come to see me."
The attendant agreed and walked out, as soon as the attendant left, Xiyun walked in, at this time, Xiyun seemed to be Lin Fei's secretary, and often accompanied Lin Fei, but she was resting today and was not on duty, Lin Fei couldn't help but ask: "Yun'er, why are you here?" ”
Xiyun sat down beside Lin Fei and sighed, "Why didn't Li Hongzhang send that girl here?" ”
Lin Fei said with a smile: "Don't worry, after all, Li Hongzhang is the Governor of Zhili, the Minister of Beiyang Commerce, and the Prime Minister of National Affairs, and there are countless things every day, so it is not surprising that this matter is postponed." ”
"He can't be forgetful, right?"
"How is this possible? Li Hongzhang is also an important minister of the Qing court anyway, and there are a large group of retinues around him, even if he forgets it, someone will remind him that I am a dignified flying emperor, and he will definitely not fail to do what he promised me. ”
Xiyun let out an "oh", "That's good." Then Xiyun was stunned and stopped talking, Lin Fei looked at her for a while, found her strange, and couldn't help asking, "What's wrong with you?" ”
Xiyun came back to her senses and said with a smile: "I was thinking, what will that girl do after she comes?" ”
Lin Fei laughed a few times, "I am such a big Huaxia country, can't I arrange for her to be a girl?" ”
Xiyun smiled: "I mean, let her be a wife to her husband, okay?" ”
Lin Fei smiled dumbly, "Aren't you jealous of letting her be my wife?" ”
"No!" Xiyun's tone was resolute, "She's so pitiful, only by letting her marry the best man can she compensate for her ......"
Lin Fei smiled helplessly, "Let's talk about this matter later." ”
"Husband...... Husband, ......" Xiyun's tone was sad, revealing a pitiful look, Lin Fei asked in surprise, "What's wrong with you?" ”
"Husband is ...... Isn't it...... I dislike that girl, just like my father, my father dislikes Mei Niang, although Mei Niang is very good to my father, but my father is just cold to others, no pretense, I don't like my father like that, and I don't want to ...... I don't want my husband to be like that. Xiyun cried quietly as she spoke.
Lin Fei couldn't cry or laugh, walked out of the table, came to Xiyun's side, gently hugged her shoulders, and said with a smile: "I won't dislike her, when she comes, I'll marry her." ”
While he was talking, there was a sudden knock on the door, and the voice of the attendant came, "Report to Your Majesty, Captain Shangguan has arrived." ”
Lin Fei shouted outside, "Let him in", and then said to Xiyun, "You go back first." ”
Unexpectedly, Xiyun pouted and said aggrievedly: "If there is something important, let the family go, doesn't the husband trust the slave family?" Xiyun suddenly used the word "slave family" to call himself, and he looked like he was low and pitiful, which made Lin Fei's whole body crisp, and he couldn't help but say, "Then you can stay." ”
Soon Shangguan Yunlong walked in, in his arms, holding a rough big wooden box, Xiyun said softly, "Hello Captain Shangguan", Shangguan Yunlong saw Xiyun, his expression suddenly became very unnatural, and he said "Hello Staff Officer Sa" without smiling, and then said to Lin Fei: "Your Majesty, do you want Staff Officer Sa to avoid it first?" ”
Lin Fei looked at Xiyun and said with a smile: "No need, she can know everything I know." ”
Shangguan Yunlong said in embarrassment: "It's really not good for her to know about this matter. ”
Xiyun's tone was displeased, "Captain Shangguan, don't underestimate people, I also have a military rank and an officer, what you can know, why can't I know." ”
Shangguan Yunlong sighed, said "Okay", and then put the big wooden box in front of Lin Fei, and said gloomily: "Your Majesty, you can take a look at the contents of the box first." ”
Lin Fei looked at the box and asked, "What's in the box?" ”
Shangguan Yunlong sighed and shook his head sadly, Lin Fei touched the lid of the box, lightly pressed the pin, "click", the lid popped open a small opening, Lin Fei reached out and lifted the lid of the box, a sour smell came to his face, after the smell, I saw that there was a thing stacked inside the box, that thing was yellowish, the color was dull, like oilcloth, but the texture was much more delicate than cloth.
Lin Fei wondered again: "What is this?" ”
Shangguan Yunlong still didn't answer, Xiyun stretched out his hand and said, "This thing is so strange, I don't know what it is." Seeing that Xiyun's hand was about to touch something like that, Lin Fei stretched out his hand to block Xiyun's hand and whispered, "Don't touch it", Shangguan Yunlong said softly: "It's okay, this thing can be touched." ”
Lin Fei withdrew his hand, Xiyun touched that kind of thing, retracted his hand slightly, and said "It's so soft", then he gently picked up that thing, Xiyun's hand lifted that thing up, and the things that were originally stacked together unfolded layer by layer, "This thing is not small", Xiyun said casually, and then he completely picked up that thing.
That thing was very big, dragged from Xiyun's hand to the ground, and there were a few irregular holes in the thing, Lin Fei suddenly frowned, and said sharply: "Give me the thing." ”
Xiyun was startled, tears welled up in her eyes, and she pleaded with a crying voice: "Husband...... Don't ...... husband, Don't be so fierce to people......"
Lin Fei reached out and took that kind of thing, put it aside casually, and said softly: "I don't let you take that kind of thing, it's for your good." ”
Xiyun pouted and said aggrievedly: "Isn't it just a strange thing." ”
Lin Fei stood up, gently hugged Xiyun in his arms, and said in the gentlest tone, "Do you know what that thing is?" ”
Xiyun shook his head, and Lin Fei sighed lightly, "I said it, don't be afraid." ”
Xiyun sneered: "Yun'er is also a person who has experienced war scenes, how can she be so easily afraid. ”
Lin Fei took a deep breath, "That's a human skin, a human skin." ”
Xiyun's eyes widened instantly, "Husband, you...... What do you say? ”
"It was a human skin, a skin that had been peeled off a person."
Xiyun's whole body trembled instantly, as if she was electrocuted, Xiyun closed her eyes suddenly, screaming sharply, Lin Fei hurriedly hugged her in her arms and comforted her softly.
Xiyun screamed a few times and fell into Lin Fei's arms, crying loudly, crying as if no one was around, completely ignoring that Shangguan Yunlong was on the side, Lin Fei looked at Shangguan Yunlong with reproachful eyes, Shangguan Yunlong said helplessly: "Your Majesty, you can't blame me, as soon as I came in, I let Staff Officer Sa avoid it." ”
Lin Fei called in a maid and asked her to take Xiyun to find Ling Xue, Ling Xue happened to be at home today, the maid took Xiyun out, Lin Fei said, "Tell me, what's going on with this human skin?" ”
Shangguan Yunlong said gloomily: "It belongs to one of our major battalion commanders, and it was done by the Portuguese. ”
Lin Fei directly smashed the cup in his hand, and the Portuguese dared to peel off the human skin of my major battalion commander!
Shangguan Yunlong continued: "The Portuguese not only skinned the battalion commander, but also tanned the skin and sent us back, and there were more than fifty soldiers who had the same experience as the battalion commander. "Whether it's human or animal skin, it has to be tanned after it is peeled off, and if it is not tanned, the skin will quickly rot and cannot be preserved.
Lin Fei's eyes widened instantly, "Are you saying that more than fifty of my soldiers were skinned alive by the Portuguese?" ”
Shangguan Yunlong nodded heavily, and Lin Fei said in a cold voice: "With the strength of the Portuguese, it is impossible to capture more than fifty of my warriors alive, what is going on?" ”
Shangguan Yunlong stood up suddenly, lowered his head and said: "I am to blame for this matter, it was my negligence that I believed the surrender of the Portuguese, and as a result, the Portuguese suddenly attacked and captured more than 50 of our officers and soldiers, I hurriedly organized people to rescue, but the Portuguese captured them deep in the forest, and when we found them, they were only left with human skins, and their bodies had been eaten by wild dogs." ”
Lin Fei gritted his teeth loudly, my Emperor Fei has just won the Nanyang World War, Britain, France, Qing and Japan are all tied up, a little Portugal dares to insult me like this!
Shangguan Yunlong's voice raised, "Your Majesty doesn't need to be angry, the Portuguese governor and the violent Portuguese have all been arrested by me, I didn't kill them, I just want to bring them back and let your Majesty let you fall." ”
Lin Fei didn't speak, he stood up and paced around the room, and Shangguan Yunlong said on the side: "I plan to treat others in the same way as others, and skin the Portuguese governor, but skinning is a technical job, and I have never found anyone who can do this." ”
Lin Fei shook his head lightly, "Since the governor of Portugal likes to skin others, it means that he has no fear of skinning, and skinning can't scare him." ”
Shangguan Yunlong was taken aback, "Then what should we do?" ”
Lin Fei thought for a moment and asked, "What kind of person is that Portuguese governor?" ”
"He's quite arrogant, he thinks he's the best in the Portuguese Empire!"
Lin Fei couldn't help laughing, "What a ridiculous guy, Portugal was indeed strong in history, but that was before, the current Portuguese Empire has long been in decline, and it is no longer what it used to be." So bring me this Portuguese governor, and I will see him myself. ”
Shangguan Yunlong agreed, turned around and went out, Lin Fei looked at Shangguan Yunlong's back, and secretly thought in his heart, the hateful Portuguese, dare to bully my Huaxia Empire like this, must have thought that I had just experienced a big war and had no national strength to use troops, so I will show you whether I have the national strength to use soldiers.
