Episode 109 Late Frost Pavilion Conspiracy
Zhu Yourong asked Fourteen Gege about when he wanted to use the ship, whether he planned to go to Europe to get the property in person, or send someone to go.
Fourteen Gege hesitated slightly. She had thought about how to get her property in Europe. It stands to reason that such a huge amount of property, including bills with gold, as well as jewels and other works of art, was at least a few large boxes. If you look for a boat by yourself, I'm afraid you won't be able to go with it. But even the fastest ship to Europe takes more than half a month, and the Ming and Qing wars here, as well as the People's Guard, do not allow themselves to leave for such a long time.
Now that Zhu Yourong is willing to help, the reliability is much greater. Just choose someone you can rely on to be your representative.
Therefore, Fourteen Gege laughed:
"Your Majesty, there is a war going on right now, and the work of the security team is very heavy, Liaoyang has the heart to go in person, I'm afraid I won't be able to leave. Just choose a reliable person, and Liaoyang will give the password and key to this person, and let him represent Liaoyang with full authority. ”
"Oh," Zhu Yourong didn't want Fourteen Gege to leave for a long time, and Fourteen Gege said that it was exactly what she wanted. She smiled and asked, "So does my sister have a trustworthy candidate?" ”
The right person, Fourteen Gege has already gone through it in his mind, and he is already confident at this moment. This person has a good relationship with himself, has a high status, can hold back, and will never fight the idea of his own property.
Fourteen Gege said with a smile:
"This ...... Your Majesty, this person has an extremely close relationship with you, and it depends on whether Your Majesty is reluctant to let him go to sea for a month. ”
Zhu Yourong was stunned, his face was slightly red, and his chest jumped up slightly: Could it be ...... She wants Tingzhi to go to Europe?
Fourteen Gege was also stunned when he saw Zhu Yourong's expression, and immediately understood that she had mistaken it for Xiang Xiaoqiang. But she pretended not to see the blush on Zhu Yourong's face, and said with a smile half-jokingly:
"Liaoyang wants to borrow the lord of Leping, is Your Majesty willing to do it?"
Zhu Yourong smiled dumbly, it turned out that he was talking about Xuan Xuan.
As soon as Fourteen Gege said Zheng Yuxuan, Zhu Yourong immediately understood her consideration. As the lord of Daming, Xuan Xuan has a noble status, is smart and clever, and has a very good relationship with Princess Liaoyang, she can also be trusted. And Xuan Xuan has no public office, so he can go away. Princess Liaoyang said that there is no more suitable person than Xuanxuan in this matter.
But...... My best cousin has been out to sea for so long...... Zhu Yourong was really reluctant. She bowed her head slightly, pondered for a moment, and said:
"My sister's consideration is very thorough...... However, this matter has to be agreed by Xuan Xuan himself. Well...... So...... Did my sister tell Xuan Xuan about this matter herself, or did I tell Xuan Xuan? ”
Fourteen Gege was also very happy to see her agree, and said with a smile:
"Don't work Your Majesty, Liaoyang will tell the Lord of Leping himself."
……
Coming out of the fortress, Fourteen Gege drove to the Yanping Palace, looking for Zheng Yuxuan. Fourteen Gege rarely came, and Zheng Gongyin was also very enthusiastic, leaving her in the house for lunch. The relationship between Zheng Yuxuan and Fourteen Gege has always been good, especially last time, Fourteen Gege and Xiang Xiaoqiang pooled money together to buy back Yuhua Chong's shares for Zheng Yuxuan, which made Zheng Yuxuan deeply grateful to Fourteen Gege. Among Xiang Xiaoqiang's other four women, the only one who Fourteen Gege regards as his own is Zheng Yuxuan.
Of course, Qiu Yu is not bad, she has no bad intentions with anyone, and Fourteen Gege does not hate her. But she has a too close relationship with Xiuxiu, basically as long as Qiu Yu knows everything, it means that Xiuxiu knows. And Xiuxiu and Fourteen Gege are not happy with each other.
At lunch, Fourteen Gege told Zheng Yuxuan about this and wanted to ask her to go to Europe for him. Zheng Yuxuan couldn't hold back his excitement when he heard it, since he came back from the last time he went to Beiqing to negotiate, he had been suffocated for so long, and he had long wanted to go out again. Switzerland is so fun, I haven't been to it yet, this opportunity is to have fun for a few days, and by the way, see what is good in Princess Liaoyang's treasures. - Besides, Fourteen Gege helped himself so much last time, and he hasn't repaid the favor yet. Zheng Yuxuan didn't look at his father, so he opened his mouth and agreed.
Fourteen Gege looked at Zheng Gongyin, afraid that he would be reluctant to let his beloved daughter go away, so he was a little reluctant to go, so he smiled vaguely and said that after the property was recovered, he planned to invest a part in the Zheng consortium.
Zheng Gongyin actually kept pulling his face, just waiting for Fourteen Gege to say this. As soon as he heard this, he immediately smiled and raised his glass to each other.
At this time, Zhu Yourong called and asked his uncle to arrange a ship for Princess Liaoyang to go to Europe.
His Majesty said hello, and it was his daughter who went by boat, so Zheng Gongyin immediately called his yacht manager and selected the yacht.
As soon as the yacht management officer came with the yacht roster, the fourteen grid was really eye-opening. Zheng Gongyin is worthy of being the richest person in the Ming Empire, with 20 private yachts alone, including eight large and medium-sized yachts that can go to the sea. The ship number is named after "Qinhuai Bayan":
Such as the number, round horn, Xiangjun, Xiaowan, Baimen, Yujing, Hengbo, Xianglan.
The eight yachts vary in size, with the smallest tonnage being 3,000 tons and the largest being 8,000 tons. All of them are heavy oil high boilers, and the maximum degree is more than 27 knots.
In the view of Fourteen Gege, this fully reflects the characteristics of the Ming Dynasty as a maritime country. The wealth of the wealthy is largely reflected in seaplanes and private ocean yachts. In the Northern Qing Dynasty, no matter how rich people are, they only buy land, minerals, and mansions, while the sea is closed. I haven't heard of any high-ranking officials in the Northern Qing Dynasty who have ocean yachts.
The yacht stewards recommended one of the best at the moment, the Cross Wave. With a displacement of 43o5 tons and a maximum height of 28 knots, it can carry up to 35 guests, sailors and service personnel 125 people. Remove 5o unnecessary service personnel, and add a company of guards.
The only dangerous route along the way is around Malacca. However, Sumatra Island has been in the hands of the Ming Dynasty for almost a year, and the pirates have already been rectified. Not only have the pirate villages along the Sumatran coast been wiped out, but every large ship passing through it is escorted by a patrol boat until it has completely crossed the entire Malacca region.
Zhu Yourong gave Fourteen Gege an edict allowing her to choose guards from the People's Guard. - After all, this is a private matter of the Fourteen Grids, and the People's Guard is an army and belongs to the public weapons of the state. If there is no authorization from Zhu Yourong, it really can't be adjusted casually.
Three days later, on the 7th, Zheng Yuxuan set off on the Hengbo from the South Pacific to the Indian Ocean, through the Suez Canal into the Mediterranean, and then directly at the port of Marseille, taking the train to Zurich, passing only two countries along the way: France and Switzerland.
The matter is completely unofficial. Zheng Yuxuan is the county lord, so he can only keep a low profile throughout the whole process. In China, the emperor's daughter is called a princess, and the king's daughter can only be called a county lord. But Westerners don't have the distinction of princesses and county lords. The daughters of emperors, kings, and princes are all called princesses, and they are all princesses. The "princess" of the Ming Dynasty went to Europe, although she only went to Switzerland to handle banking affairs as a private person, but it was eye-catching. Fortunately, the trip did not have to pass through countries such as Germany and Italy, which saved Hitler or Mussolini any more opportunities to make a fuss. At this time, the Ming Dynasty was extinguishing the Qing Dynasty, and the international image was very important.
……
At six o'clock in the evening, Fourteen Gege sent a letter to Asakura Sako, asking her to go to the Jingyuezhai Restaurant in Qinhuai District at seven o'clock to go to the "Evening Frost Pavilion" ordered by Miss Lin.
Miss Lin is Kobayashi May. After Xiao Wu followed Fourteen Gege to Daming, he has been studying Chinese hard. It turned out that when he was in the Northern Qing Dynasty, he also had a good year, and Xiao Wu never learned Chinese very well. That's also something that Fourteen Gege did on purpose.
In the Northern Qing Dynasty, Fourteen Gege was powerful and powerful, and his henchmen were like clouds, so he had the intention not to let Xiao Wu learn Chinese, so that she could only communicate with herself and become a "henchman among henchmen". But now that Daming is here, Fourteen Gege has suddenly become a loner, and there is only one Xiao Wu who can really be called a "confidant", so she can only learn Chinese hard so that she can do things for herself. Now after a year, Xiao Wu speaks Chinese very well.
Jingyuezhai is the most low-key high-end restaurant in Qinhuai District, and "Evening Frost Pavilion" is the most private box in the restaurant. Xiao Wu was sent in the afternoon, and he chartered this box early, checked it first, and made sure that there was no eavesdropping and recording equipment, and then waited in it all afternoon.
At 6:40, Sako Asakura came first. Sako Asakura had met Kobayashi May in Japan, and knew that this little girl was a fourteen-grid "hardcore horse boy", and she followed her in Japan. The two are also acquaintances, sitting together drinking tea, holding hands and chatting affectionately. However, although Xiao Wu is nearly ten years younger than Asakura, he is not stupid, and he talks about some Japanese past, and Asakura tries to talk about it several times, but Xiao Wu avoids it.
At seven o'clock, Fourteen Gege also came.
Tonight, Fourteen Gege is nominally inviting back to her old classmates, but in fact, she is also inviting people from the Japanese side to an environment under her control, so that she is willing to talk freely with the other party, and really speak out of my mouth and into your ears.
In Fourteen Gege's opinion, Sako Asakura has also experienced it over the years, and she is no longer the good girl in the high school class back then. Kenji Dohihara didn't come tonight, but Sako Asakura was like Dohihara's microphone, completely conveying the meaning of the Japanese side to Fourteen Gege.
According to Asakura, this is just an intention at the moment, and there is no specific plan yet. The Soviet side also did not know. Moreover, the Japanese side is very worried that Nanming may reject this plan. Because for a long time, the Southern Ming Dynasty has been proclaiming in a high-profile manner that all the territories occupied by the Qing Dynasty are the legitimate territory of the Ming Dynasty. Now, it is suddenly necessary to divide these "Ming territories" with the other two countries, and I am afraid that the people at the top of Nanjing will not be able to accept it for a while. Now it is necessary to persuade the Xiaoqiang group, and then to the Xiaoqiang group to exert influence in the high command, form a unified opinion among the top echelons of the Southern Ming military, and then influence the empress and the cabinet. In this way, the certainty of success will be much greater.
And as long as Fourteen Gege actively plays a role in promoting this matter, then Japan will support her as the empress of the Northeast Qing.
Fourteen Gege pondered for a while, glanced at Asakura, and smiled:
"Is this bold 'plan' from the Imperial Council of the Cabinet, or from the staff of the Military Command Department?"
Asakura was stunned for a moment, opened his mouth and stammered for a long time, and said:
"This ...... This is only a preliminary intention, and it has not yet been played by His Majesty the Emperor......"
Fourteen Gege laughed:
"I'm afraid even the Cabinet government doesn't know, right?"
Asakura smiled helplessly and nodded:
"This matter is extremely secretive, and it is really not suitable for too many people to know."
Fourteen Gege smiled slightly, thinking that it was not true. After talking for a long time, the so-called "Japanese side" is actually the "Japanese military command department". After all, it's that group of staff officers. The emperor did not know, the cabinet did not know, not even the 6 Minister of the Navy. In the past two years in Japan, the power of the military has become more and more powerful. After 2-26, it is completely a country within a country. It wasn't like this when I left.
Fourteen Gege leaned back in his chair, squinted his eyes, and closed his eyes to recuperate. Sako Asakura carefully stayed by the side and didn't dare to disturb her.
After a while, Fourteen Gege opened his eyes and said:
"Yes. I'll go and tell them to Xiaoqiang. Then let Xiang Xiaoqiang tell Zhu Yourong. But...... Japan's side must let the Cabinet know. This matter must be the cooperation between the Ming Empire and the Japanese Empire, not the cooperation between the Ming Empire and the Japanese Military Command Department. I don't want to be a bunch of staff officers planning from start to finish. Do you understand? ”
Sako Asakura hesitated and nodded.
Fourteen Gege looked at her and said:
"And ...... Regarding the matter of making me the Empress of the Tohoku Qing Dynasty, I also hope to get a commitment from the highest level of Japan. Preferably a direct commitment from His Majesty the Emperor. ”
Sako Asakura was taken aback:
"His Majesty the Emperor? This...... I'm afraid...... Your Highness, is it okay for the Minister of Military Orders? ”
Fourteen grids face pulled:
"No! You have to figure it out, this is to ask a princess to succeed the queen of a country, it is the most important thing between countries, what is the Minister of Military Orders? Can he speak for the whole country? ”
"That'...... Is it okay to do it? ”
"No way!" Fourteen Gege pulled down his face again, "I don't know how many days he will live, and if he will be killed again." ”
Sako Asakura looked at her with a bitter face, and she was about to cry.
Seeing her like this, Fourteen Gege changed his smiling face, patted her head, and said lovingly:
"Alright, my Miss Sako...... Okay, okay, that's it......"
