Chapter 687: Clever Robbery

He didn't know how hard the gift was to stay in Daming, he only knew how hard Master Lu Dao wanted to keep the gift in his home.

After getting along for a long time, the moral bottom line is inevitably affected by the environment, the master is the master, the housekeeper is the servant, and his moral bottom line cannot be higher than the master.

The housekeeper quickly understood what Qin Kan meant.

"Since those gifts are so hard to stay in our Daming, the old man feels that they must be fulfilled to be ......" The housekeeper looked flattering, like a traitor interpreter who persuaded the imperial army to enter the village and spoil the flower girl.

Qin Kan let out an imperceptible "um" in his nostrils, picked up the teacup and continued to taste the tea, but never looked at him again.

The butler will retreat.

…………

The door of the Kokukofu creaked open to the silent prayers of the Japanese, and the Japanese kneeling outside the door stood up, looking up at the sky with excited faces, thanking Amaterasu for the blessing of the gods, and thanking the emperor for the blessing of his distant telekinesis......

"Bring in all the boxes outside the door...... the butler waved his hand at the servants in the house, and the boxes piled up outside were carried by the servants in a moment.

Prince Zhiren outside the door became more and more excited, because of the psychological gap in front of him, seeing that the Guogong Mansion was willing to accept his gift, Prince Zhiren couldn't help but have an urge to cry, and led all his entourage to bow to the ground with his head bowed to the ground in the five-body throwing style towards the gate of the Guogong Mansion.

"Ahhhh His Excellency Xie Lu Xie Guogong is willing to accept a meager gift from a Japanese vassal, and His Majesty the distant Emperor is also sincerely grateful for the goodwill and benevolence of the Ming Kingdom, please allow me to express my heartfelt ...... to His Excellency Ning Guogong on behalf of His Majesty the Emperor."

Boom!

After moving the boxes, the servants of the state palace mercilessly closed the door again. The stunned Japanese knelt outside the door, and the boxes piled up at the door were nowhere to be seen, and the early spring breeze blew by, and everyone shivered for no reason, and a chill colder than the spring breeze arose.

"Dear...... Your Royal Highness, this, this person ......" The attendant opened his mouth in disbelief and looked at the two cold red lacquered doors of the Guogong Mansion in a daze.

Prince Zhiren is only fifteen or sixteen years old, and this is the first time that he has been ordered by his father to go to the Ming Kingdom as an envoy, no matter how mature and stable he is. After all, it's only a fifteen or sixteen-year-old child. Where can the scheming city be compared to a real adult, seeing this, his eyes blinked a few times, and his eyes gradually filled with tears.

Wiping away his tears, Prince Chihito's face was full of grievances. Muttered, "No." No, it won't. My father told me that he said that the Ming Kingdom was a well-read and gentle country. My father won't lie to me, there can't be such a shameless person in the Ming Dynasty...... Wait, maybe there will be a turnaround......"

"Hello!" All the attendants fell to the ground.

Quietly, an hour passed, and after the box was moved into the Guogong Mansion, the door of the mansion was never opened again, and it was tightly closed, and the two brass beast rings on the door looked at them coldly, as if full of mockery.

Prince Zhiren finally despaired, his heart was full of grievances and sorrow could no longer be suppressed, the corners of his mouth were deflated, and he cried loudly, pointing to the gate of the Guogong Mansion and chattering in Japanese, I don't know what he was saying, probably swearing......

"Let's go, go to the Ministry of Rites official to complain! Da Ming can't bully us like this! Baga! ”

******************************************************************

The inner courtyard of the Ningguo Mansion.

Du Yan, Jin Liu, and the four girls of Lianyue and Lianxing circled around a pile of boxes in the middle of the courtyard, and their mouths made a slurp.

"This is a gift from Japan to our family?" Du Yan pouted, her pretty face was full of pride, Zhao Ming had been well-informed for many years, lightly lifted Jin Lian and kicked the box, and said disdainfully: "The Japanese slave country is so rude, the boxes for gifts are all old like this, and they are all very ordinary camphor wood boxes, or the lord of a country gave them, not atmospheric at all, how can it be like those colleagues in Beijing, who give gifts to the door every New Year's Day, just looking at the box is the red sandalwood ...... of clear water."

Jin Liu hugged Xiao Qin Le in his arms, smiled so that his eyes narrowed into a slit, but he didn't interject, and kissed Qin Le's puffy little face lovingly.

Qin Kan said with a smile: "Japan is a small country, this more than 100 years coincided with the Warring States period, dozens of daimyo fought for territory on the island, and set up the imperial power, the royal family has no soldiers, no power and no money, and life is not much better than asking for food, and it is already very sincere to be able to make up these courtesies." ”

Although the gift was snatched by skill, Qin Kan still spoke his conscience, in general, Grandpa Qin is still a relatively upright person, only occasionally intermittently lacking morality......

Du Yan still snorted dissatisfied, her attitude was the same as that of the old housekeeper, Qin Kan was almost killed in a bloody battle with the Japanese on Chongming Island, and the whole house had no good impression of the Japanese.

Opening the box, the four daughters immediately opened their apricot eyes, and stayed for a moment, the four girls sneered, and Xiao Qin Le was held in her mother's arms, seeing the eldest mother, her mother and the two little aunts laughed together for some reason, Qin Le also grinned and smiled ignorantly.

"Phase...... Xianggong, you, it's really not embarrassing for you to ask someone to grab these broken things back......" Du Yan leaned back with a smile.

Qin Kan was also stunned, full of thought that the second-hand goods of the Japanese royal family should also be valuable antiques, who knew that when he opened the box, the ivory folding fan inside was broken, the second-hand Bodhisattva knocked the edge, the second-hand screen was not only yellow, but also a hole in the middle, and the gifts were miserable, and he had just copied the home of a dilapidated family.

"It's a loss, it's a loss......" Qin Kan's face was full of remorse, and he looked up to the sky and sighed: "It's really a big loss to lose your reputation for this bit of, come on, throw these boxes of rags out of the house for me, and tell the Japanese prince that his own father is upright, iron-faced and selfless, and never accepts gifts from outsiders, telling him not to ...... in the future."

"Master, I heard from the butler that the group of Japanese has left the ......," said a maid with a smile.

Du Yan wrinkled her nose slightly, and snorted: "Forget it, I grabbed it all, and I went back to lose my reputation, I see that among these gifts, only these boxes of pastries are still in the eye, are they cherry blossom flavored?" Looking back, Jin Liu and I, the moon and the stars have tasted it......"

The jade hand lightly picked up a piece of pink pastry, Du Yan just brought it close to her mouth, suddenly her face changed, she threw away the pastry and quickly turned around and bent over and vomited, her face turned blue and she was miserable, and Jin Liu and Lianyue and Lianxing were so frightened that their faces changed color.

Qin Kan was also startled, and while caressing her back, he picked up a piece of pastry and sniffed it, frowning: "It's not that exaggerated, right?" Does it really smell bad? So, there is nothing good in Japan, so someone came and threw all these sweets away......"

Du Yan covered her mouth, and said angrily with a blue face: "No, it's all buried, it's harmful!" It's all your fault! ”

A pair of pink fists slammed into Qin Kan's chest very unceremoniously.

Jin Liu hugged Xiao Qin Le, looked at Du Yan, who was spitting hard, and was stunned for a while, and suddenly didn't know what to think, the corners of his mouth quietly hooked, and a beautiful arc was bent......

…………

…………

It turns out that there is really no free lunch in the world, and there is no free gift, there is a price to pay for receiving gifts, even if you just receive a bunch of rags, a few days ago, a large number of ministers fell in the court, it is because of the gift of Zhu Chenhao, the king of Ning, Qin Kanqiao took the gift of the Japanese is naturally impossible to be light, the Japanese emperor smashed the pot and sold the iron almost even put the iron pot for cooking rice at home into the gift box, and what was brought to the Ming Dynasty can be said to be all his belongings, can Qin Kanbai rob it?

On the morning of the second day, the man who sought justice came.

Zhou Jing, the left attendant of the Ministry of Rites, accompanied Prince Zhiren of Japan to the door, and this time Qin Kan finally didn't feel embarrassed to stop them at the door, so he had to order the housekeeper to invite them into the front hall.

Zhou Jing's expression was very calm after entering the door, with a trace of imperceptible respect and even awe in his calmness.

Zhou Jing is a second-class jinshi in the fourth year of Tianshun, born in Shujishi, his father is a famous minister of the Four Dynasties, and he gave the prince Zhou Xuan Shaobao, which can be described as a family of official eunuchs and poets, and Zhou Jing is also seventy years old this year.

As the saying goes, ambition is not in old age, and it is no matter how long or late it is to add blockage, there is naturally a reason why the seventy-year-old man is so in awe of Qin Kan in his early twenties.

Qin Kan can be described as the disaster star of the Ming officialdom, he was young and feuded as the prince of the country, and the bad ideas of the stomach made the ministers miserable, starting from the Jinyi Wei Qianhu, there were countless civil officials and eunuchs who had been pitted by him, and the great traitor Liu Jin, who was known throughout the country, died under his calculations, and died so that there were no bones.

Although Zhou Jing is old, it is obvious that the old man has not lived enough, he needs to spend a beautiful and not short twilight old age, when he is old, he doesn't care about what face is not faceless, he is respectful and respectful to Qin Kan without pressure.

In contrast, Prince Zhiren's face was not very good-looking, and he stared at Qin Kan with a bitter and hateful face, and he escaped a group of hardworking and poor peasants who fought landlords.

Qin Kan was wearing a golden python robe, crossed his legs with a grin, and sipped tea slowly.

After a few sips, he suddenly felt that something was wrong, and when he looked up, he saw a pair of eyes full of grief and hatred staring at him, staring at Qin Kan all over his body.

Frowning, Qin Kan arched his hand sideways towards Zhou Jing: "Master Zhou......"

Zhou Jing hurriedly got up and saluted back: "Don't dare, how old is the idiot, and I am too big in front of Grandpa Qin." ”

Pointing at Prince Zhiren, Qin Kan was puzzled: "Could it be that His Royal Highness this Prince peeked at the women of my Ming Liang family who had needle eyes in pee?" Why are you staring at me all the time? Like how much I owe him......"

Before he finished speaking, Qin Kan suddenly paused, and then his old face became hot.

Grandpa Qin has a lot of nobles, and he forgets the lack of virtue he has done faster, he remembers, it seems that someone robbed His Royal Highness of this prince yesterday, but didn't he owe him money?
