While Hawkins is facing the Queen's questioning or questioning, Governor Emerik is also forced to the point of no retreat by Boer. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info Bull actually wants to use the large amount of taxes that the territory has to hand over to the British treasury every year as usual, just this idea made the governor start to break into a cold sweat, on the surface, it seems that the tax is moved by the money bag of the Brethian Empire, but in fact, whose money is the Britlean Empire? Those in the council who can really influence the direction and future of the empire! If they knew that the money had been used without permission, it would be strange if they didn't tear the governor to shreds when the time came. The Governor thought that he could not explain, but Boer didn't care what the Governor thought, he only thought about defeat at the moment, defeat needed to be reversed, and the empire needed the territory to continue to be controlled. Bull pushed the governor into a corner, put a quill against the governor's neck, and asked the governor to open the vault like a robber, take out the tax money and hire men, and form an army against the rebels in the territory led by Curis. Beads of sweat ran from under his wig and down his ears to his neck, and he trembled and pulled the cord of the bell and called for the servant to fetch the key. This news needs to be reported to Brethren, but by that time Bull may have almost wasted the money.

Bull got what he wanted, but this time without the support of the group, and even the help that the empire could send was far from quenching his thirst. On his way back from a distant battlefield, a ragged and scrawny Bull stumbled past Curris's manor, where he saw cowboys riding horses and carrying advanced weapons. Hundreds of cowboys fired a volley of weapons in their hands, and the scene was shocking. Fortunately, the number of these people was not very large, and Bull thought that he still had a chance of winning, so as soon as he returned to the governor, he began to act, the interests of the empire's territory had reached a dangerous moment, and any method could be considered, at all costs. Perhaps, Boer can give an account to the group, or to the bigwigs in the Empire's native parliament. After a grooming and dressing up, Bull once again became the most dignified and supreme business representative. He began to busily plan an operation against the Curris estate. There is a very favorable condition in the territory, some outlaws expelled from the homeland by the empire in the past, can become the object of conscription, and they only recognize money.

Mei Yi planned to secretly return to the capital and meet with those old men. Under the pretext of recuperation, he sneaked out of the city in the middle of the night and headed for the capital with Pegasus. The horses had been outside the city for less than an hour, when they met a couple of people who were hurrying on their way, hurrying with their children and daughters. Under careful questioning, Mei Yi was told that it was Fanren who advised these people to leave as soon as possible. It's Fanren again, Mei Yi asked again, those people said that they were originally at the wharf outside the city to buy things necessary for long-distance ships for ships coming and going, so they had some dealings with various shipping merchants, and Fanren was no exception. In their words, Fanren is also a human, not a ghost. A few days ago, a sailor went ashore to carry goods, revealing the news that there would be war here, so these people quietly packed up the soft and precious things, and left the dock under the pretext of going north to invest in relatives and merchants. While going to war, he said that he wanted to meet the current saint, and the people were cunning, and this matter should be discussed with a few people in the capital, but this time he went to Beijing mainly to talk about the detrimental things he suffered, and after Mei Yi asked, he beat the horse again and galloped towards the north.

After Xiaoxing stayed overnight for more than ten days, Mei Yi arrived in the capital and went straight to the mansion of those old men. Mei Yi didn't need to go to everyone's mansion to discuss, he just chose one. The last time he went to that house, Mei Yi only remembered the alley where the back door was located, this time Mei Yi had an extra heart, he was inconspicuous and first found the back door of the house, and then walked around and found the main entrance of this house, just by looking at it, Mei Yi identified the identity of this person. Longyuan Pavilion University Scholar, official worship of a product, plus the title of prince and Taibao. This person is the same as himself, he is also Xiyi, which is really unexpected. The rank of the general in the barracks is already very high, but he is submissive to these people, and he can't be low enough to think about those Xiyi. Surely they also need to worry about extinction? Mei Yi knocked on the back door with questions. After a long time, someone opened the back door and asked about Mei Yi's origin. Mei Yi handed over five taels of silver by the way when he handed over the name card according to the custom, which was easy to do. Underlying rules are rules, and who's to say it's not. The money was given, and the name card was taken away, but Mei Yi could only find an inn to accommodate him. He was told that the scholar had followed the present saint to hunt outside the mouth. As for when he will be able to come back, Mei Yi is helpless, and he doesn't know the mansions of several other Xiyi, so he can only return in vain this time. He remembered Thomas and the others who were imprisoned, as well as the news of the war he had heard on the road.

The fleet returned to the naval docks, replenished with fuel, food, and weapons, and was once again sent off for sailing. There was no need for the people to know where the navy was heading, the queen's call was still enthusiastic, and the atmosphere was still high. The Queen's previous questioning of Hawkins was part of the answer in itself, the Empire did not need to wage a war in the East for which there was no good reason, but the rebellion of the Emerik Territory was immediate, realistic, and Breez could not help but face it with all his might. The Queen's name Hawkins must have understood that this was related to the interests of the group, the core mission of all members. Hawkins knew what he had to do, and before the parliament could officially convene, he used his power to issue emergency orders to change the task of the fleet, and the queen gave timely approval, and the fleet rushed to Amerik without any problems. On the way back, Hawkins again called his secretary to dig out the letter from the Governor, and he remembered the young leader of the rebel forces that Bull had spoken of. If he is the missing cousin, then he must also be a member of the group, why has he disappeared once now, and he has become an enemy of the group after changing his appearance and identity. Hawkins vaguely felt that the queen actually had a lot of things to tell him, and even there were many secrets in the group that even the queen didn't know.

Hawkins changed his mind halfway through and called the coachman to rush to the vicar's suburb. He knew that the fellow, though he was a priest, was extremely unqualified, and that it was better to look for him in his converted stables than to go to the church. Many people in Kyoto know that the priest's stable is a museum with many specimens and fossils collected by him, and it is a small but rich museum. The coachman stopped outside the fence of the pastor's house, and Hawkins told them to wait in the cart and went into the stable alone. The stable door was open, but there was no one inside. Except for the rows of shelves of fossils and specimens, the rest of the place was empty. Hawkins asked, and the voice echoed through the stable, there really was no one. Hawkins walked along the first row of neat wooden shelves, and was quickly attracted by the few stones on the shelves. The stones vary in size, but are clearly a series. The painting on the first stone seems to tell a story, simple lines form a dense crowd, distributed on the left side of the stone, standing high on the right horizontal line, Hawkins can't see what it is, round head, obviously beyond the height of a human on the left, behind this monster is a flat round object, the object is surrounded by light like the Lord on the church mural. On the second stone, there was already a man standing beside the monster, kneeling on the ground and making contact with the monster, and the person on the left was still worshipping. In the third, the person who came into contact with the monster began to be drawn with a simple facial outline, and the monster had disappeared. A flattened object in the distance in the upper right corner seemed to indicate that the monster had fled on this glowing thing. Hawkins didn't understand that the person with the new facial contour had a slender face, which was very different from a normal person. Hawkins wanted to watch it, but he didn't. Next to the stone had become a staring owl, and the owl's round eyes seemed to have read through Hawkins's mind, making him very uncomfortable. Hawkins turned to look at the shelf behind him.

When I first saw a fossil, I heard the voice of a priest behind me. He returned, and Hawkins ended his brief visit, ready to apologize to his host for the sudden visit. The priest said he didn't care, and he pointed to the stones and said they had been collected from caves in some archipelago in the ocean. He suspected that it was an account of the events of ancient times by the island's natives. Hawkins asked about the exact content of the painting, and the pastor stroked the lines with his hand, saying that it had something to do with the origin of our group. Hawkins felt that this statement was ridiculous, how could the origin of the group have something to do with the indigenous people in the ocean? The priest ridiculed Hawkins's idea and asked rhetorically, who could say that the ancestors of the Brethians must have been the island's aborigines? Then he asked solemnly, but with a smile, who can say that our ancestors were suddenly born somewhere? The pastor's rhetorical question, like a tongue twister, made Hawkins overwhelmed for a moment. The priest began to show the rare specimens and fossils he had collected over a long period of time, which was kind of a popular science lecture for Hawkins. Hawkins is not good at this kind of knowledge, of course, he can only keep nodding his head and saying yes, like a schoolboy receiving a teacher's teaching. I don't know how long it was, but Hawkins apologized and interrupted the pastor's lecture, and he confessed that it was time to go back. The pastor said that when he came in, he had already instructed the Prime Minister's coachman and secretary to go back to the city first, and that the Prime Minister would be a guest at the pastor's house tonight. It's news that Hawkins laughed at himself that a dignified imperial prime minister's itinerary could be arranged by a priest at will. But if he was in the group, Hawkins secretly told himself that this arrangement had to be obeyed.

The priest did not know where the mechanism had been moved, and when night fell, candles began to light in the dim stables, and it was surprising that they were lit one after another. Needless to say, this must have been the invention of the unprofessional pastor in front of him. The priest then went on and on to tell a lot about biology and evolution, and then asked the prime minister what he thought. Before the Prime Minister could reply, the priest gave a mischievous smile and said that you need to understand that these are lies. After saying this, he corrected it again and again, saying that it was a lie to them humans. Hawkins didn't react for a moment, and the priest pulled him out of the stable and back home. Sitting on the couch in the living room, the pastor said it was time for an after-class discussion. Hawkins wonders if this guy still has an unsatisfied desire to be a teacher, and is addicted to the prime minister today? The pastor said that what I showed you was actually part of a necessary scam. Humans didn't really evolve, or they didn't evolve entirely. Or maybe some people don't evolve in the true sense of the word. The pastor began to speak incoherently and seemed agitated.

Every day, Kuris comes up with a lot of ideas, some about the independent creation of a state in his territory, some about purely improving weapons, and he can also come up with factory machine improvements. Warman feared that his quick and effective thinking would bring him down, but strangely, Curris didn't feel tired at all. The work he had done according to his ideas paid off in the end, and even Warman's initial concern that the Continental Army was too small in numbers became less of a problem as Curris improved the Continental Army's weapons. The Continental Army, trained to be proficient in the use of weapons, showed their good qualities in the manor and was inspected by Curris. Another thing that Curris was busy with was gathering the leaders of all aspects of the territory in the manor to discuss the future once independence was achieved. His opinion was to establish an independent state, to structure state institutions that were different from those of Breez according to reasonable principles.

And Bull, who had to look out at the Curris Manor with a telescope almost every day, was not idle, and the outlaws he had gathered with the gold coins in the governor's treasury of the territory were also stepping up their training. Although they are not as disciplined as the regular army, if they are given enough rewards, such as fine wine, women, and yellow gold coins, the combat effectiveness of these people should not be underestimated. Besides, the empire will definitely send reinforcements, Bull gritted his teeth and looked at the dusty army in the manor, and turned his horse around and went back to the governor's palace. His plan was simple, to prevent the Continental Army from forcibly taking over the institutions of the Governor of the realm with the existing strength, and to suppress it once reinforcements arrived, and no one could withstand the onslaught of the formidable Imperial Marines. Just as this idea came to mind, another one came along. Bull saw the defeat of a few months ago, and the more he tried to forget about it, the more it came to him. Annoyed, Bull whipped a few times, and the horse shook off its hooves and ran forward in pain, its muscles shaking to show that the horse was reluctantly moving forward under the load.

In the end, Mei Yi did not wait for the scholars to come back from hunting outside the mouth, but one day from the window facing the street on the second floor saw a soldier Yong who marked the number of the garrison camp of the city in the south, riding a fast horse through the street. The command flag held in his hand made no one dare to stop him, and he walked all the way. This kind of situation will only exist when there is a war, there is no shock in my heart, it seems that there is still a war in the place under my jurisdiction, and the group of people on the road is true, but I didn't find any signs of Fan people to carry out before, could it be that Fan people have long planned to carry out, just waiting for the opportunity. And the timing was Thomas provocative arrest? Mei Yi didn't wait any longer, he knew that he had already violated the taboo of the imperial court by entering Beijing without permission, and if there was another war in the jurisdiction, his future would be worrying. At the moment, the settlement of the house money and the horse marched south. didn't care about resting, Mei Yi changed horses almost immediately at the post station all the way, sparing no expense. All the way back to his own territory. When I entered the city, I found that there was no sign of any fighting, and the crowd on the street was still bustling, which was strangely tight.

Mei Yi thought about it, and there was no better way to hide that he had left the city, so he simply went straight to the Tongdai Mansion and asked about the situation in the past dozens of days. The commander met Mei Yi and made a detailed report. It turned out that since Mei Yi said that he was going to recuperate, he began to act as an agent for daily affairs. Soon, he received a written protest from Fanren, asking to let Thomas and the others go, and the commander had to ask Mei Yi for advice, but found that Mei Yi was not there. There was no result in the request, and I didn't dare to make my own decisions, so I had to make a word and delay. This drag, Fanren became angry, lifted several movable hatches on the ship, and launched several cannons with black holes. Seeing this, the commander was not ambiguous, and called the soldiers to push the Shenwei cannon in the camp out, and they all faced several large ships on the sea. In order to teach the people a lesson and maintain the dignity of the imperial court, the commander said that he ordered the cannon to be fired first. Mei Yi glared at Tong Dai, and Tong Dai didn't dare to continue. Mei Yi spit out a word and said. The commander said that the merchant ships of those Fanren began to retreat, so that the Shenwei cannon could not reach the Fanren, and then, the Fanren opened fire.
