Chapter 153: Concubine Yi's Choice? Moment of truth! befall

Hui Zheng's house, in the room. Concubine Yi is dressed in gorgeous clothes, gorgeous and dazzling, and extravagant.

Because the queen is indifferent, and Concubine Yi gave birth to the only prince, and she has now read the recitals for the emperor on a large scale, and even reviewed the recitals, making her increasingly majestic and faintly the first person in the harem.

Therefore, it is even more arrogant now.

The last time it was all dark, something unpleasant happened to the two.

At this time, the lights are on.

"Minister Su Yu, see Concubine Yi!"

Concubine Yi couldn't help but think of the unbearable scene a few months ago, and that feeling of shame and anger came up again.

"Su Yu, do you know what the emperor said about you?"

Su Yu said: "I don't know, please ask the concubine for advice." ”

Concubine Yi said: "The emperor said that unless Nanjing is taken, Su Yu will not have to return to Beijing." ”

Of course, this was said privately by the emperor and Concubine Yi.

"Do you know how many people are waiting for bad luck in the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty?" Yi Guifei said: "Who has done this factory you want to run in the Qing Dynasty, and you are still pulling more than 100,000 people to coerce the emperor, do you know what the consequences will be once you lose?" ”

"Many people in the Manchu Dynasty civil and military people already look at you unpleasantly, there was the emperor to protect you before, and now the emperor is annoyed with you, you set up a factory, and took away the coffins of hundreds of thousands of people in the capital, as long as you show a little defeat, this group of people will immediately come up and bite you."

"You have political enemies of the Hunan army in the local area, there are political enemies of Su Shun and others in the imperial court, and the emperor does not protect you, what will you do then?"

Then, Concubine Yi's voice softened.

"Su Yu, listen to me, you took these two or thirty thousand young people away, and you took them away, just to become your source of soldiers, these seven million taels of silver, just for you to use to train your troops, and then go to attack Anqing. As long as Anqing is defeated, the emperor's anger towards you will disappear, and the holy family will come back. ”

"In just two years, you have changed from an ordinary banner man to a feudal official, all relying on military merits. Why do you want to set up a factory and engage in foreign affairs? Does this get you promoted? Instead, he offended the emperor. ”

"Don't you know that since Lord Qianlong, I hate these strange tricks of foreigners the most?"

Su Yu said coldly: "When the concubine Niangniang met me, did she want to tell me this?" ”

Concubine Yi said: "Aren't these important? ”

Then, she said with a straight face: "You have soldiers in Jiangxi, and the emperor is far away, so what should Chongen do in the capital?" What about you, Amma? ”

Su Yu said: "Can't the noble concubine shelter them?" ”

Yi Guifei said: "Why should I protect them, and who am I?" ”

Su Yu said: "Lan'er, haven't you really changed, have you forgotten the friendship back then?" ”

Concubine Yi couldn't help but glance at her and said, "Su Yu, don't say these crazy things. ”

Then she continued: "Su Yu, I just remembered the love of the year, and I saw that you lost your holy family, so I wanted to come to help you at the end. ”

Su Yu said slowly: "Guifei Niangniang, I don't need you to save me, but you yourself, you seem to be majestic?" In fact, there is a lot of danger, Su Shun and others are very hostile to you, and the emperor hasn't touched you for a long time. ”

Concubine Yi's face turned pale, and she said, "Su Yu, you offended me some time ago, I am tolerant a lot, and I am not to blame for the past." As a result, after meeting, you are still so obsessed. ”

"I had great expectations for you, but now it seems that I don't have to count on it."

Su Yu said slowly: "Concubine Yi, please remember one sentence, when he is in danger, don't forget today's words." ”

With that, Su Yu turned around and left directly.

Concubine Yi trembled and said, "Su Yao, then you also remember for me, tonight is the last chance I gave you." When you are in trouble again, he will not want me to save you! ”

After Su Yu left, Concubine Yi directly smashed Ruyi out of her hand.

Her father, Hui Zheng, walked out of the next room and said, "Why is it here, why is it here?" ”

Yi Guifei's beautiful eyes were red and said: "Amma, you have also seen his appearance, from now on, I don't care if he lives or dies." ”

"He's a man, I'm ...... I'm really going to be by him! ”

"I'm so kind, and he's treating me like this."

……………………………………………………

On the way home, lightning and thunder were already roaring.

When he returned home, Su Yu immediately took out his tablet.

"I had a big fight with Concubine Yi just now." Su Yu said.

Red flags were planted all over the Manchu Qing Dao: "Can't you sleep with her?" The emperor's ability in this area should not be good, he should not be able to satisfy her, Su Bacun, you are so handsome and so powerful. ”

Su Yu said: "I actually tried it just now, but it didn't work, the effect was worse than the last time." ”

Concubine Yi is very important to Su Yao's next plan.

So just now Su Yu really tried to do something to leave a hook in her heart.

However, something seriously wrong with the emotions was felt.

Negative Eighth Sister said: "This is normal, she is a power creature, when she has not yet reached the top, she is ambitious, and at this age she is very weak in lust." It's been a long time since a man touched something, so I'm full of desire for that aspect, and that's just wishful thinking on the part of you men. ”

"The reason why Princess Shou'an is so enthusiastic is that she has affection for Su Bacun first, and then she has desire."

And now Concubine Yi feels that she is looking down on Su Bacun, especially now that Su Bacun has lost her holy family, she thinks that it is the best opportunity to accept you, and she will ask you to meet. But both of you have strong personalities, which is why there will be violent quarrels. ”

"So during the time she was proud, Su Bacun actually couldn't conquer her, only when she was in trouble, she could conquer it instantly!"

Yingnian said baldly: "That can only be when the coup d'Γ©tat of Xinyou, when Cixi and the Empress Dowager Ci'an were overwhelmed by Su Shun's bullying, Su Bacun made a move, took down the Empress Dowager, and took power." ”

The red flag interjected Daqing and said: "I think you can't count on this woman, there must be alternatives, you don't want to be imprisoned by history, I found that you often make this mistake." ”

…………………………………………………

At this time, inside the Zhaolin Mansion.

The first beauty in the emperor's harem, the lotus concubine, also went home to save her relatives.

Zhaolin is dead, Zhaobu is in Jiangxi, and the home is a little deserted.

At this time, this Bingbing was a little worried.

Compared with two years ago, she is more mature and more beautiful.

When she first entered the palace, she was extremely favored, and the spring breeze was proud for a while, so it was inevitable that she would be domineering and offend many people.

But the emperor likes the new and hates the old, and Bingbing plays petty at every turn, so he is not as favored as before.

In the palace, she had the worst relationship with Concubine Yi, and when she was favored, she even offended Concubine Yi a few times.

Now that she is not so favored, Concubine Yi's revenge will come immediately.

Therefore, Bingbing was very uneasy.

"Enie, this concubine Yi is ruthless, now that the emperor is still there, she doesn't dare to really do anything to me, but after the emperor in the future, her son will succeed to the throne, so ...... I can't even imagine it. Bingbing said in a trembling voice: "Maybe, then my daughter will die and have no place to be buried." ”

Mrs. Zhaolin said: "Then you will fight for anger and give birth to a dragon son, the mother is more expensive than the child, and she may not dare to do anything to you at that time." ”

Bingbing said: "Where is it that I can give birth if I want to, there has been no news from the harem in the past two years, and the imperial doctor has also diagnosed that the emperor's kidney water is thin, and I estimate that it will be difficult to get pregnant again." ”

Mrs. Zhaolin said in a trembling voice: "How is that good, but how is it good?" ”

Then, she whispered, "Otherwise, find a way to borrow a seed?" ”

Bingbing's gorgeous face changed, and she hissed: "Enie, you don't want to die?" That would be punished by the whole clan. ”

Mrs. Zhaolin said: "I'm just saying, I'm talking about it." ”

Bingbing said: "Ernie, don't even think about this thought, it's a big deal that I will lower my eyebrows in the palace in the future, and please Concubine Yi more." ”

Mrs. Zhaolin lowered her voice and said, "Daughter, in case, I said if there really is such a day. Who do we ask to borrow the right seeds? ”

Bingbing said: "There is no such day, don't think about it. ”

Mrs. Zhaolin said: "I just talk about it casually and think about it casually. ”

Then she whispered again: "Isn't Brother Su Yu very stupid?" During that time, I proposed to your aunt and grandmother every day, but you just didn't look down on him. He is handsome and athletic, and he is also the ...... of Zhaobu's boss. ”

Bingbing said: "Enie, my daughter begs you, don't have random thoughts, otherwise our family will die without a place to be buried." ”

…………………………………………

The rumors in the capital are incredibly fast.

"Did you hear that? Lord Su Yu fell out of favor, and the emperor did not approve of him running a factory. ”

"I heard that he went to ask to see the emperor, but he didn't even enter the palace gate."

"Without the Holy Grace, Lord Su Yu is only afraid that this big thing will not be done?"

"What then? Isn't the money lent to Lord Su Yu going down the drain? ”

"Also, these two or thirty thousand people still have to follow Brother Su Yu to Jiangxi, so is there any future?"

New rumors have begun to circulate in Beijing.

And it's getting worse.

And today, it is the day when the first batch of supporters of Su Yu, 6,000 young immigrants, set off.

Under the cover of the new army, they were to go to Tianjin to board the ship and go to Jiujiang.

At that time, the British armed cargo ship leased by Su Tuo will also participate in the escort.

At this time, the 6,000 immigrants were gathering outside the city gates, talking and looking uneasy.

These people are the hope of the whole family.

Almost everyone's family has invested money in Suyao's factory.

Although, everyone has already received a settling-in allowance of eighteen taels.

But this first batch of people is also the group of people who have invested the most money in Su Yao, with an average investment of more than 100 taels of silver per household.

Many families, and even their parents, have invested all their money in Su Yao to find a way for their son.

And now, I heard that Su Yu has lost the emperor's favor.

That...... Can this business still be successful?

With Master Su Yu, is there a future?

I'm about to go.

Once you set off, there's no turning back.

"Look at you cowards, it's time for you to look ahead." Lin Guangzu yelled, "What's the matter? Sticking out the head is also a knife, shrinking the head is also a knife, the money has been paid, and the money has been signed, do you still want to regret it? ”

"Those who regret it, you return the settling-in fee to Master Su Yu, and then go home in disgrace."

"I continue to find no way out at home, I help people everywhere, and I find someone at home to talk to the matchmaker, but no one cares."

"Anyway, we're going to take a gamble."

"In the past few years, what has Lord Su Yu wanted to do, which thing has not been done?"

And at this time, Su Yu appeared.

"Lord Su Yu is here, Lord Su Yu is here."

These six thousand people, lined up neatly, looked at Su Yao.

Su Yu said loudly: "Brothers, you are the group of people who pay the most money, and you are also the group of people who support me Su Yu the most. ”

"Now the rumors have started to spread, you are worried, worried."

"I'll just say two words."

"The first sentence, the brother who wants to quit, you can stand up right now, I will definitely not stop it."

"The second sentence, even if you go to Jiangxi, you regret it, you want to quit, you want to come back, you can do it at any time, and half of the settling-in fee does not need to be refunded."

Then, Su Yu shouted loudly: "Are there any brothers who want to quit?" ”

"Three!"

"Two!"

"One!"

Maybe it's because it's too unwilling to quit at this time, or maybe Su Yu's idol atmosphere is too strong.

In short, no one quit.

Su Yu said: "I, Su Yu, swear, you believe in me, pay everything to follow me, I should do my best to earn a bright future for you!" ”

Then, Su Yu took out a sword and broke it violently.

"If you break this oath, it will be like this sword!"

"Brothers, let's go!"

With an order.

Three hundred new troops, escorting the first batch of 6,000 immigrants, set off in a majestic manner.

With the rations on his back, he left the capital, first went to Tianjin, and then took a boat south to Jiujiang.

And behind them, there are countless old people.

All of them are their parents.

Looking at the back of his son's departure, tears rained down.

Su Yu came to Lin Shu's old man, he sent his three sons over, and invested in Su Yu with all his life savings.

Holding the old man's hands, Su Yu was silent.

Lin Shunian said: "Su Dashuai, I am also a scholar, and I also know some things. ”

"This rumor spread too quickly, it seems that there are people in the court who don't want Lord Su Yu to succeed."

"It's really good to say that Lord Su Yu has lost his holy family, and it's not fake. Old Immortal thought, when Lord Su Yu took the Chinese martial arts double solution yuan, did he rely on the holy dependents? When Lord Su Yu recovered Yangzhou, did he rely on the Holy Family? When you recovered Jiangxi, did you rely on the Holy Family? ”

"The old man said a sentence of heart-wrenching, and I have seen through it after all these years of living."

"The old man believes in Su Yao's handsomeness, not some saint."

"I've already told my three sons that some people don't want us to do this, so they have to fight more and more to get it done, let them see."

Su Yu didn't speak, just bowed deeply to the old people.

…………………………………………………………

Su Yu said goodbye to his parents and brother.

Say goodbye to Lord Chong'en.

Say goodbye to Qingqing, goodbye to your precious son.

There will be three more groups of immigrants, a total of 20,000 or 30,000 people, who will all be sent to Jiangxi within two months.

In the past, when the feudal officials took office, the palace would send someone to send the emperor's inscription to show encouragement.

At this time, in the Sanxi Hall of the Palace of Nourishing Hearts.

The emperor had already inscribed the inscription, and Zenglu was on the side, staring at the inscription on the table.

As long as the emperor spoke, he immediately took this inscription and rushed to send it to Brother Su Yu, fulfilling the dignity of the monarch and ministers.

At this time, the emperor's mind once again echoed Du Han's words.

Knowing that the emperor didn't like to run a factory, Su Yu still did it. And in response, more than 100,000 people have invested money, and tens of thousands of young people have followed, which is too appealing. ”

"This person is scheming, and he is afraid that there is no emperor in his heart."

Minutes and seconds passed.

"Dangdangdang......"

The Western table clock rang.

It was already twelve o'clock in the afternoon.

The emperor said: "Zenglu, you go and give this painting to Su Yu, and encourage him to do a good job in Jiangxi." ”

The great eunuch Zeng Lu said happily: "Huh! ”

Then, holding the emperor's inscription in both hands, he rushed out.

Hurry up, hurry up!

The great eunuch Zenglu ran out of breath, and he really didn't dare to stop at all.

However, wait until you enter Su Yu's house.

only to find that Su Yu had already left.

Suddenly, the great eunuch Zenglu trembled, his face was pale, and he lost his soul.

The emperor here was an hour and a half late, and asked him to deliver the inscription.

And Su Yao's side waited for an hour, but before he waited, he said goodbye to his family and set off.

The great eunuch of Zenglu gritted his teeth, and hurriedly galloped on his horse and rushed towards the outside of the city.

………………………………………………………………

It's really not that Su Yu wants to be angry with the emperor.

I really can't wait.

It's not even that the Basha Rite can't wait, it's that the time is too short to catch the passenger liner to London.

If you miss it, you'll have to wait for days.

And now, the situation is like fire, where can it be delayed like this?

A day later can be a sea change.

Sir Bao Ling in London is under tremendous pressure all the time, and he may give up his secret agreement with Su Yu at any time and implement Plan A instead.

Therefore, Su Yu almost gritted his teeth and waited for an hour.

In the end, he did not wait for the inscription sent by the emperor, so he left Beijing directly.

Ba Xia Li couldn't even ride in the carriage, his whole body was shrouded in a black cloak, mixed in Su Wei's horse team, galloping quickly in the direction of Tianjin, not daring to stop.

When I ran out of the capital for dozens of miles.

Su Yu once again encountered the 6,000 young immigrants.

This morning, when the sky was bright, Su Yu went out of the city to see them off, and then he returned home, said goodbye to his family, and waited for the emperor's inscription.

At two o'clock in the afternoon, these 6,000 immigrants have already walked more than 30 miles.

At this time, the escort of the three hundred new troops, with high morale, sang military songs.

These 6,000 young immigrants were also infected, and they marched towards Tianjin with neat steps.

Some people, after listening to them several times, also learned these military songs and sang them along.

These military songs suddenly resounded in the sky.

I saw Su Yu galloping past from the side.

The three hundred new troops immediately stopped and saluted.

"Handsome Wansheng!"

The 6,000 immigrants also stopped and shouted: "Great handsome, Wan Sheng!" ”

Su Yu did not stop galloping, but on horseback, he gave a long military salute, knowing where the new army and the immigrant brothers could not see, before he put down his hand.

It's not just Su Yu who is fighting for a great cause.

These thousands of people are also fighting for a great cause.

The basha next to him said, "Sir Su Yu, I will remember this scene and take it to London." ”

Next, the group continued to gallop.

Change horses along the way.

With the fastest time, I rushed to the Tianjin wharf.

At this time, there was already a small steamer, waiting for Su Yu and Ba Xiali.

Without any stops, a few people got on a small steamer and headed south!

…………………………………………………………

Three days later!

The small steamer arrived in Shanghai.

Just got off the little steamer.

Immediately, a group of British soldiers stepped forward, led by a colonel, who was a confidant of Rear Admiral Simamil.

"Sir Basha, you're finally here, we're all going to go crazy."

"The commander of the Navy asked me to tell you that he is officially withdrawing!"

"Guangzhou, something is wrong!"

"Ye Mingchen, the governor of Liangguang, seized the Yarrow merchant ship, and our British Empire's legation sent someone to negotiate and ask Ye Mingchen to release the crew and release the Yarrow merchant ship."

Ye Mingchen strongly refused.

A lieutenant colonel military attache in the legation threatened war and pointed at Ye Mingchen and said that he was an ignorant pig. Ye Mingchen was furious and detained the lieutenant colonel's military attache and the officials of the legation. ”

"Now the entire legation is leaderless, which makes our diplomacy passive."

"On the London side, the former minister, Sir Bailing, has been officially dismissed, and the Earl of Ergin has taken over immediately, and he represents the strong will of Parliament."

"Either tomorrow, or the day after tomorrow, he will rush to China."

"General Simamigoli has already led a warship to greet the new minister."

"The general asked me to tell you, give up that unrealistic fantasy, give up that secret agreement, it is impossible to succeed."

"Congress has decided to solve the problem with war!"

"It's all inevitable."

They spoke English, and Su Yu understood.

Sure enough, it was the Yarrow incident, and the inertia of history is really strong.

It's just that this Yarrow incident is much more intense than in history.

Sir Bashali and Su Yu glanced at each other and said, "My friend, do you feel it?" The pace of war is getting closer and closer. ”

"The situation in Guangzhou is worse than we imagined."

"The last time we withdrew unconditionally, Ye Mingchen and others underestimated our will even more and behaved so stupidly tough."

"The Rear Admiral withdrew from the Secret Treaty, as I thought, and Sir Paling was tormented and reprimanded in London."

"But don't worry, I won't give up."

"Let's go to Liru Bank immediately!"

………………………………………………………

Next, the two of them got into the carriage and headed towards Liru Bank.

Just entered.

Liru was the leader of the bank, and immediately rushed up.

"Sir Basha, you're finally here, I'm going to go crazy."

"Close, close, close the business."

"All cleared!"

Suddenly, more than a dozen British soldiers entered the bank and invited all the guests inside.

Then, close the door tightly.

Su Yu said: "Inside this box, there is a bill of exchange of 10 million taels of silver, do we need to go to Rishengchang to take out all this silver?" ”

If you take it all out, it will be an astronomical amount and it will take many days.

The boss of Liru Bank shook his head and said, "No, no, this is the matter between us and Rishengchang." ”

Next, Su Yu handed over the box.

More than a dozen staff members of Liru Bank hurriedly picked it up.

Start checking each of these bills of exchange.

"Hurry up and go to record the people of Sunrise Changji in Shanghai, please come over, check together, and hand over together!"

"Yes!"

Immediately, two managers rushed out of the back door of the bank.

The transaction volume is so large this time, Risheng Changji has already sent someone to notify the people of the Suzhou branch in advance to carry out this super-large handover.

Next, the people of Liru Bank and Sunrise Cheong Kee are racing against time to carry out business handover.

And Su Yu and Sir Bashali were finally able to sit down quietly and drink a cup of coffee.

Enjoy this short time of relaxation.

Even with the fastest speed, more than two hours passed, and the handover was finally completed!

Liru Bank immediately issued a deposit security note.

Three million pounds.

The silver, mortgaged in Liru Bank, could not be touched for three months.

Even in the UK, that's a lot of money.

Ba Xia Li needs to use this huge amount of money to continue to pry into the secret agreement with Su Yu.

It opened an alternative route for the relationship between the British Empire and China.

Therefore, the value of this bill is far more than 10 million taels of silver.

Taking this huge bill from Liru Bank, the two of them left the bank and went to the dock without stopping.

The passenger ferry to London is less than an hour and a half.

It's really a race against time.

Not an hour can be delayed.

…………………………………………………

And when Su Yu and Ba Xia Li arrived at the dock.

The entire dock is heavily guarded.

Hundreds of British soldiers, neatly lined up.

What's going on, are there big shots coming?

Immediately after, a fleet appeared in view, like a giant beast.

When many people saw it, they immediately let out a burst of exclamations.

Mighty British Empire fleet.

Many people in Shanghai are full of anxiety, why are there so many warships?

After a whistle, a large warship slowly approached the Wusongkou wharf.

Su Yu and Ba Xiali glanced at each other, they knew.

The Supreme Commander of the British Empire in the Far East, the Earl of Elgin, arrived.

Half an hour later!

An officer appeared in front of Ba Sha Li and Su Yu.

"Sir Basha, Supreme Commander of the Far East of the British Empire, Earl of Elgin wants to see you! Please follow me. ”

Bashali looked at the passenger ship to London on the left, and it was about half an hour before it left.

He was going to go to London with this bill of tens of millions of silver, so that the big man behind Sir Bao Ling would bypass Parliament, lobby the queen, and execute the secret agreement with Su Yu.

This contains the hope of Su Yao's rise. It also contains the hope of changing the life of the country.

For this, Su Yu has paid a huge price.

It was not only him who paid a huge price, but countless families, who also paid for everything.

There are already several thousand people on their way to Jiujiang.

On the right, there is the battleship of the Count of Ergin, which is obviously to make Bashali abandon the secret treaty and turn to Ergin's command.

It was also a battle of lines within the British Empire.

Ba Xiali looked at the warship in front of him, and then glanced at Su Yu.

Then, he solemnly said, "I'm very sorry that I can't go and see the Earl. My passenger ferry is about to leave and I'm heading to London! ”
