34. How to determine the turmoil (6)

Liu Rong smiled bitterly, that's right, the relevant people and others copied the house and handed it over to Chonghou, I don't know if Chonghou dares to take this money, if he takes it, I'm afraid that he will break with that side, but since these people want to be Chonghou and take off their official hats, they will not be rude, presumably Chonghou will not be polite. There weren't many pens, fun, and pavilions, and there weren't many www.biquge.info, but the guard of honor of beating gongs and drums stopped, and Jinghaitang arrived.

Zeng Guofan got off the sedan chair, and on the trees by the roadside and the river, the people were crowded, and when he saw Zeng Guofan, he cheered repeatedly, "The prince of the Qin Mission!" ”

The French consul on the side had a blue face, but it contrasted with the turquoise tuxedo on his body, and the consuls of various countries listened together, and the foreigners were surrounded by the officials, when Zeng Guofan walked over, the French consul shouted loudly in French, Zeng Guofan nodded slightly, walked straight over, and asked the interpreter behind him, "What is this person shouting?" ”

"He asked the Lord to give an account to the French country."

"Tell him, I'll give him an explanation today!" A big case has already been placed outside Jinghai Hall, Zeng Guofan has a big case, and he first invited out the trump card order arrow, the holy decree, the Qincha customs defense and other things, the body is settled, the officials holding water and fire sticks on both sides are lined up, Chonghou and Tianjin officials are seated on one side, and the ministers of various countries and the French consul are sitting on the other side.

The officials put the water and fire sticks on the ground hard, and the front of Jinghai Hall was suddenly silent, Zeng Guofan smiled and said to the French consul: "Your Excellency, today we are trying the case of the murder of your businessman, because the deceased is a Frenchman, I specially invite the consul to observe, and this matter involves the siege of Jinghaitang, all countries are concerned, so I also invite the consuls of various countries to observe together, please pay attention, you are only listening, not a judge, please bring your ears and eyes, if you have any suggestions, please consult with this seat afterwards, Listen to that, please. ”

The meaning of the words, you are not the presiding judge, just shut up and look at me, the French consul was the first to jump out angrily, and when he saw Zeng Guofan's eyes, he retreated slightly, just staring at Zeng Guofan with an angry face.

Zeng Guofan turned a deaf ear and slapped the stunned wood, "Bring someone to commit a crime!" ”

According to the envoy's respectful voice, he opened the booklet in his hand, "Take someone to commit Feng Er!" ”

。。。。

Qinghai dragged his tired body and just arrived at the Prime Minister's Yamen, but found that Prince Gong was in the Old Summer Palace, so he rushed to the western suburbs non-stop, handed the sign into the garden, and rushed to the duty room of the Military Aircraft Department to report on the matters negotiated with various countries, "The French ambassador is useless, and he refuses to listen to half a sentence, and the British ambassador Piri Yangqiu, speaking in a fog, gossiping a few words, and then he talked about Kokand and Shi Dakai, I know what they mean, they want us to make concessions here, but the queen mother's meaning, I understand it very well, and I am willing to give in there?" Shi Dakai has to continue to raise, Zuo Zongtang is very majestic in Xinjiang! Qinghai complained very much, in his opinion, India and Xinjiang are barren land, where can compare with the wealth and prosperity of Tianjin, because of the small loss, it is really unwise.

However, there was an order, although he was unwilling, he had to obey, Qinghai continued, "The lower official naturally can't let go of the matter here, so according to the instructions of the king of parliament, he hinted that the British ambassador that Hurd has been serving in the General Customs Administration for more than ten years, and the argument should also be changed, and the Qing Dynasty is willing to give up this position to the French to calm the anger of the French, and the English ambassador squirmed and said that he would help mediate." ”

"The Austro-Hungarian ambassador was also direct, only saying that if he was given a few ports for trade and some discounts on tariffs, he was willing to mediate, and if our price was too large, he was willing to deploy troops to France on the border to provide a certain amount of pressure."

"Nonsense, nonsense," Hu Linyi shook his head, "Guo Songtao came to report, saying that Austria-Hungary was defeated at the hands of Prussia, and this son is about to instigate the French and the Prussians to go to war, and the two countries will wear a pair of pants at this time, and there will be troops on the border to put pressure on the French?" When we don't know anything, it's time to rip off! ”

Guo Songtao is now serving as ambassador to the United Kingdom and has been transferred to France, he knows the most about Europe, Prince Gong also felt that the words of the Austro-Hungarian ambassador were inappropriate, but at this time he was in a hurry to go to the doctor, "The matter of trade is easy to say, and they have no sailors, and they are not afraid of many ports, no matter whether his words are true or not, at least they can be used a little." ”

"The Russian ambassador also refused to come forward, but the American ambassador was very enthusiastic, according to his words, he has already negotiated with the French ambassador and is willing to make efforts for peace between China and foreign countries."

"What do they want?" Prince Gong asked.

Qinghai shook his head, "He didn't say it, maybe he felt that Xia Guan was not qualified enough." ”

"The Americans are not as domineering as the British and French on our side," Wen Xiang said, "and they are only in China, and they do not have much to do, and there are records in the Polytechnic Academy, and there are only one or twenty American missionaries in China." ”

"The national strength of the United States is average, and it is not as prominent as Britain and France," Prince Gong said, and the eunuch came to invite him, saying that the Queen Mother had called it, and Prince Gong ordered Qinghai to go with him, and maybe he would have to ask about these things. (To be continued.) )
