Chapter 231: The Origin of the Assassins
After the assassin's incident, the atmosphere on the train was a little dull, and the Ouchi guards checked the suspects on the train one by one, and even the carriage of the foreigner was searched three times.
"Your Majesty, you have violated our human rights, and they are not qualified to search our residence!" Bourblon was furious, and several priests he brought were shot and killed indiscriminately, and they were brutally searched, without saying a word, they directly pulled Bao Ling and others to Li Yunzhong to complain.
Li Yunzhong sneered slightly, raised his injured right hand, and said calmly: "On China's territory, I have the final say anywhere!" I suspect that the Assassins will not rest on their laurels, and if they hurt a few ministers, it will be more than worth the loss, so it is better to search them clearly, which is called being prepared. ”
Bao Ling found a vacant seat and sat down, frowning: "But your subordinates are too rude, turning our things all over the place, and we have lost a few documents, I suspect it is ......"
"Sir, speak with evidence!"
Without waiting for Bao Ling to finish speaking, Hong Renji interrupted him, the document was secretly taken by the guards at his behest at his behest and he bribed the staff around Bao Ling, only to know that Lu Dao had this document, which coincided with this golden opportunity, so he fished in the water, and the documents were all changes in the policies of Britain and France towards China.
Li Yunzhong echoed: "Yes! The Assassins are so blatant, maybe they stole your things, this is called sowing discord, and this ploy is very useful in China! ”
Bao Ling had to dispel the thought in his heart: "I hope so, but those documents are outdated documents, and they must be sealed according to the regulations." If someone under His Majesty picks it up, please give it back to me. ”
Fu Shanxiang came in happily. Seeing that there were suddenly a few more foreigners in the carriage, he immediately sat behind Li Yunzhong. put up a mother's posture.
Li Yunzhong picked up the teacup and said with a smile: "Shanghai is coming, if you have nothing to do, please go back first!" ”
"Farewell!" Bao Ling pulled Burbulon, who was about to say more, bowed slightly and turned to leave.
Seeing the foreigner leaving, Su Sanniang immediately asked Fu Shanxiang, "Have you asked about the assassin clearly?" ”
Speaking of assassins, Li Yunzhong also stared at Fu Shanxiang, since he ascended the throne and became emperor, it was the first time he had encountered an assassin. The thrill made him still palpitate now.
Fu Shanxiang glanced at Li Yunzhong and whispered: "There are thirteen assassins, twelve of whom were killed, and only the female assassin is still alive. ”
Hong Xuanjiao glanced at her and asked, "We are asking you who she is?" Who sent it? ”
Fu Shanxiang was stunned for a moment, and then sped up the pace: "The assassins are all remnants of the Jiangnan camp, and the female assassin is called Zhang Xiaodie, who is Zhang Guoliang's youngest daughter, and the rest are also Zhang Guoliang's old department." When the city slope of Hangzhou, Zhang Guoliang ordered them to pretend to be ordinary people and hide in the temple, which allowed them to escape. ”
For the assassins. Su Sanniang was the most impressed, recalling the scene of being held hostage, she frowned and asked, "That Zhang Xiaodie was worried about his family so he let me go." However, Zhang Guoliang is from Guangdong, and his family has long fled to the north. Could it be that Zhang Xiaodie lied, she is not Zhang Guoliang's daughter at all! ”
Fu Shanxiang smiled: "Sister, don't be impatient. My sister also thought of this, according to Zhang Xiaodie's confession, their family life in Beijing was not happy, Xianfeng's pension was all embezzled by the Manchurians, with the frustration of the war ahead, the Manchurians intensified, every day the prince Baylor sent people to loot, in desperation, their family could only flee to Shanghai, living an incognito life. ”
Li Yunzhong nodded and said, "Since we are incognito, why do we want to assassinate Lu, we are defenseless this time, and we almost let them succeed!" ”
Fu Shanxiang's face turned pale, remembering that it seemed that she had escaped at that time, he couldn't help but hold Li Yunzhong's palm, and was silent for a while before replying: "This time Zhang Xiaodie assassinated, the family didn't know, there were a few guards in the car who were the personal soldiers around Zhang Guoliang back then, Zhang Xiaodie inadvertently met them a few months ago, and after some discussion, he began to decide to assassinate. ”
Hong Xuanjiao gritted her silver teeth and said hatefully: "Everyone can be punished for these chaotic ministers and thieves, since Zhang Guoliang's family is clearly investigated, we should cut the grass and eradicate the roots to prevent future troubles." ”
Xu Yuexiang has followed her brother-in-law in the Heaven and Earth Society since she was a child, and she is the most deeply rooted in keeping her promises, and retorted when she heard the words: "The husband has promised to let her family go, how can she go back on her word, and it will be rumored, isn't it a joke!" ”
Li Yunzhong stopped Hong Xuanjiao, who was still arguing, and said with a smile: "I have indeed promised her, and I will talk about Zhang Guoliang's ......" Speaking of this, Li Yunzhong stopped and glanced at Su Sanniang, and then said: "Let Sanniang decide Zhang Guoliang's matter!" ”
Fu Shanxiang looked at Su Sanniang's hesitant face, and wondered in his heart, could it be that the queen mother and Zhang Guoliang knew each other? I almost died at the hands of my daughter, why hesitate!
Su Sanniang's eyes were full of tears, and she didn't know what it was like in her heart, and said to Li Yunzhong: "When he attacked Qin County, Zhang Guoliang saved his concubine once, although he did not keep his promise to attack Yong'an, so that he failed, and later surrendered to the Qing army and became a Tartar lackey, but after all, he is kind to the concubine, Zhang Xiaodie is his only descendant, and the concubine really can't do it!" ”
Hong Xuanjiao then remembered the past of Zhang Guoliang, Su Sanniang, and Luo Outline, during the Daoguang period, the three of them gathered to rebel, and repeatedly attacked the Qing army and won a big victory, and then I don't know what the three of them turned against each other, Zhang Guoliang surrendered to the Qing army to defeat Luo Outline, and chased him for half a year, but there was no Su Sanniang to start, is it because of the personal relationship of the children?
Li Yunzhong smiled confidently and comforted: "It's okay, since I participated in the God Worship Sect, I can be said to have died nine times in my life, not only Yang Xiuqing and Xiao Chaogui regarded me as a thorn in their side, but they murdered me three times and twice, even Hong Xiuquan also harmed me, needless to say, there are still a lot of scars on my body, what is a Zhang Xiaodie!" Since Madame wants to let her go, let her go! should have repaid Zhang Guoliang's favor. ”
Hong Xuanjiao wanted to speak and stopped, and finally stopped persuading each other, she has always been good friends with Su Sanniang, and she didn't want to be suspicious of each other because of this time, just now Li Yunzhong talked about Xiao Chaogui, she was even more gloomy, lest Li Yunzhong suspect that she was still thinking of him.
Su Sanniang lay in Li Yunzhong's arms and cried bitterly, not because of Zhang Guoliang and Zhang Xiaodie, but because of Li Yunzhong's trust in her.
"Whew!"
Feeling that the train was gradually slowing down, Li Yunzhong patted Su Sanniang's back and comforted: "I said at the beginning, as long as you want, I will promise you, okay, Shanghai has arrived, quickly wipe away your tears, let others see it and think I am bullying you!" ”
"Yes!" Su Sanniang looked at the strange eyes of several younger sisters, her eyes dodged, she didn't turn her head to clean up, and stood up with Li Yunzhong's support.
Li Yunzhong walked in the front, passed by a few carriages, met Bao Ling, Burbulon and others, and under the guidance of the guards, the group came to the platform.
Zhou Lichun was already waiting here, and immediately stepped forward to greet him: "Weichen see the emperor, the queen and all the mothers." ”
Li Yunzhong helped Zhou Lichun up and said with a smile: "There are a lot of idle people here, let's leave here first!" ”
Zhou Lichun didn't dare to ask, and immediately followed Li Yunzhong's instructions and ordered people to prepare carriages and horses.
Bao Ling walked over and nodded to Li Yunzhong with a smile: "Your Majesty, we are going to separate here." ”
Li Yunzhong returned the salute and said, "Please, if the treaty is ready, you can come to me." ”
"Of course, farewell!"
Bao Ling and Bourblon left the platform with the foreigners.
Zhou Lichun was one step behind Li Yunzhong, pointed out the direction for Li Yunzhong as he walked, led him to see a row of gorgeous carriages, and said happily: "Your Majesty, I have sent someone to clean up the villa, the emperor has been tired all the way, do you want to go back and rest first." ”
Li Yunzhong had long forgotten that the person named Kong Mei was still living in it, and nodded approvingly to Zhou Lichun.
The group got into the carriage, and the closer they got to the villa, the more Li Yunzhong felt a kind of panic, and a feeling that something important was about to happen in his heart.
"Husband, what's wrong with you, why are you so pale, isn't it uncomfortable?" Xu Yuexiang wiped her sweat for Li Yunzhong and asked with concern.
Li Yunzhong took the handkerchief and smiled reluctantly: "It's nothing, it's nothing!" ”
He finally remembered Kong Mei's matter now, he didn't pay attention to Zhou Lichun when he was settled, and he originally planned to go to Shanghai to visit in a few days, but he forgot about it when he was busy, and nearly a year passed unconsciously. (To be continued......)
