Chapter 109: An ultimatum
The second more
On the fifth day of the disappearance of the crew, the British finally came to see Qingyu again. Looking at their faces, they also knew that they had made up their minds.
"Have you negotiated with all the countries?" Qingyu looked at the chubby old man with a smile, thinking that when he first came, he was still a personable middle-aged gentleman, and now he is a fat old man. Obviously, he has had a very good life over the years. She had heard from Chery that they already had a large aristocratic estate in the English countryside, and that there was an intact castle in that estate.
"I'm very sorry, Your Majesty." The one stood up straight and bowed his head. When he left Qingyu that day, he contacted the country, and asked the country to contact the countries, whether to sign treaties with the countries. But no one is a fool, who will sign a contract with Britain at such a time, they will look at the form.
Britain eventually signed a contract with Japan, saying that they could take advantage of this opportunity to take Korea in its entirety. If the Qing Dynasty went to war with other countries at the same time, then it would naturally take care of Korea without flawlessness. Then, it is not difficult to make North Korea completely change its banner.
And the British ambassador was about to vomit blood when he saw the signed contract, and Japan was targeting Korea, not the Qing Dynasty. So when something really happened, people didn't tear their faces with Daqing.
But by this time they had already ridden the tiger, the missions of various countries had withdrawn, and the merchants everywhere had no choice but to take the soft and were forced to get on the ships.
This time, as they themselves said, Daqing escorted the people who were leaving. The warships were all parked outside the territorial waters, and they were all seriously warned that as long as they entered the territorial waters, even if they did not fire a single shot, they would have violated the territory of the Qing Dynasty. They will fire mercilessly. This is also in line with international law, and countries really can't refute it.
The British embassy was the last one to close its doors among them, probably because they were the ones who started the war, so they were naturally left behind by the countries.
"Be careful!" Qingyu smiled, waved her hand slightly, and thought for a moment, "Is it to close the door or leave the country?" ”
"Ships have been prepared, and expatriates from all over the country are being evacuated one after another." The British ambassador sighed lightly.
"I see the efforts you have made, and I believe that you are a wise person, and I believe that we will see you again soon." Qingyu smiled at him and nodded, "Be careful all the way." ”
"Your Majesty."
"The most important thing between nations is peace!" Qingyu smiled, "You have this kind of wisdom, obviously, there are always some different voices in the country, and when the time comes, the country will always believe in wise people." ”
The British ambassador was originally a little frustrated, he had talked to the ambassadors of various countries before, and they believed that this time the Qing Dynasty was only afraid that they were determined to die. That's it, and it's a terrible thing for them.
They have been in the Qing Dynasty for so many years, except for the ignorant French ambassador, none of them are fools. The lives of the Qing Dynasty are not valuable, and if they really have the determination to die, even if they will not lose, they will not get a bargain. This is nothing short of suicidal!
These days, when he looks at the form, he can't help but want to scold those idiots in China. He felt that he might be the one who took the blame, but Qingyu now gave him a new path. Now he had to get the pot out.
"Your Majesty, you are a venerable woman." The ambassador straightened, bowed his head and whispered.
"Win-win, these years, it is obviously a win-win result, but I don't know how to cherish it. However, in the Chinese language, there is no place to rely on it! It may be a disaster for both countries, but it may be an opportunity for Mr. Ambassador. Qingyu smiled, knowing that the ambassador understood.
When the ambassador went out again, his thick back stood up, and he already knew what he had to do. At this point he was like an arrow, and of course, he also decided that when he reached the high seas, he would meet the commander of the fleet first, and whatever the outcome, he would have to show his political position first, and then he would be right.
Qingyu smiled, she could drag on this matter for five days, thinking that she had already won it, so she still accepted his love. So just now she reminded him, of course, this is also her shaking their military heart. As long as this person goes to meet the commander of the fleet and plants a small seed in their hearts, then when they make up their minds, they can reveal flaws, even if they shake a little, it will be an opportunity for the Great Shimizu Division.
These days, after Xianfeng's letter to the people came out, the newspapers have been publicizing it for several days, and the people have known about the persecution of the imperial court in various countries, and the patriotic enthusiasm is unprecedentedly strong at this time.
On the contrary, the withdrawal of foreign businessmen is an excellent opportunity for state-owned business. The share of the withdrawal can be divided up at once, and when the war is over, these foreign businessmen will find that they have accumulated for many years and will suddenly disappear, and their original dissatisfaction with their respective governments will really burst out at that time.
"E-niang, what are you eating today?" Xiao Rongan came again, stretched out his head and asked. She knew that the British ambassador was gone, and came to play with Qingyu.
"Huh? Mama Lin, what are we going to eat today? Qingyu really forgot.
"Oh, the emperor said that he should be frugal recently, and drink white porridge today." Mama Lin hehe, the main thing is that everyone can't eat it recently, but the noodle soup and the like have been eaten yesterday, and today she decided to cook some white rice porridge.
"Then I'll go back and eat with my mother." Rong An immediately took a step back. At present, Concubine Li is still according to the supply of the concubine position, Qingyu and Xianfeng will not be mean to this stutter no matter what, Qingyu is really not here and here on weekdays, just to be smooth.
When she first entered the palace, she still wanted to enjoy the national style. But look at the plates on the table, and look at the fullness. So later, she really took charge of the house, so she canceled this.
Now that Rong An's relationship with her is getting better and better, she is slowly getting used to eating with them. However, recently Qingyu has begun to experience the people's feelings, and when she saw the old Beijing Wotou for the first time, she was still very happy, mainly because she had never seen it. I watched it for a long time, but I was happy.
But Qingyu knows that neither father nor daughter is the one who can eat this thing, let alone them, even if she really doesn't know how to swallow it. There are still dishes on the table, and it is impossible to really say that Xianfeng will eat the kohlrabi in Wotou.
There are still kohlrabi dishes on the table, but they are salty and cut into small cubes, which are beautiful green beans and fried with diced beef. Then that day, the four of them ate the vegetables, but they ate two nests.
Xianfeng was not bad, she ate half of it, and then she and Xiao Rongan ate a quarter of the other half. Then everyone drank a big bowl of millet porridge. And Chery seems to have done it on purpose, he ate a whole by himself, and it looked quite fragrant. Qingyu was so angry that she was half dead, and she couldn't say anything.
