Jinling City.

Luxury and dissipation.

Here, there are ten miles of Qinhuai, all of which are green buildings.

Moreover, they are all among the best green buildings in the south of the Yangtze River.

Many people say that why Nanjing can't be the imperial capital for a long time is because it is too prosperous here, and the spring color in the south of the Yangtze River is good, which attracts tourists to get drunk. The dynasties here have been softened by the Jiangnan wind.

At the end of the Qing Dynasty, the Taiping army made such a fuss, and Jinling City was bombarded into ashes in the artillery fire, and it was extremely damaged.

However, only four or five years have passed, and Jinling City has gradually risen again.

At least, this Qinhuai Shili has already taken the first step.

Qingyi Building, this is a very high-grade decoration of the Green Building.

There are four private rooms at the top of Qingyi Building, which are called Wind, Flower, Snow and Moon.

Listen to the Wind Pavilion.

White Flower Pavilion.

Snow Pavilion.

Wanyue Pavilion.

Each pavilion is extremely high-grade and has a completely different style.

In the Snow Pavilion.

Henry, the British minister, smoked a cigar in one hand and a leather whip in the other.

In front of him, a woman from a good Chinese family was tied up, this woman from a good family was originally surnamed Li, she was extremely beautiful, and she was a young grandmother from a large family. was just taken a fancy by Henry, so he was directly tied up.

"Let me go, let me go, Lord Yang. My family can give you money. Give a lot of money. The young woman surnamed Li shouted.

"Give money?hahahaha, am I short of money?" said Henry, the British minister, in Chinese, who was already quite proficient. He is really not bad for money, half a year ago, the Western Eight-Nation Alliance, knocked the Qing Dynasty and Japan hard, a total of 100 million taels of silver, which is a big fortune for Western countries.

Britain, as the main force of the attack, dispatched 10,000 men, so a total of 25 million taels of silver were distributed.

And the British Minister Henry, as a person who took the initiative to lead this matter and played a great role in the negotiations, of course he made a lot of money. That time, he earned 10,000 taels of silver, and he was really not bad for money.

Henry, the British minister, directly took the whip and hit the young woman surnamed Li hard.

Syllable!

A bang.

Directly on the young woman surnamed Li's delicate skin, a blood mark was left.

"Ahh

And the British minister Henry, when he heard such a miserable snort, couldn't help but be even more proud, picked up the whip, and waved it at the young woman surnamed Li, his whip was specially made, and when it hit people, it would leave red marks one by one, and the pain was so special that the young woman surnamed Li couldn't help screaming again and again.

Henry, the British minister, became more and more excited the more he listened, and the more he listened, the more energetic he became: "Yes, that's it." Scream, scream. The worse you scream, the better, the worse you are, the more I enjoy it. Damn, when doing these things in the UK, I have to have a cover, and if someone reports it and gets it in the newspaper, I'm going to be unlucky. But in the Qing Dynasty, I am the emperor here. No one can handle me. ”

"You, the emperor of the Qing Dynasty, will also salute when you see me. ”

"Hahahaha. ”

The young woman surnamed Li was also desperate, yes, ordinary foreign adults, so that the Daotai was afraid. And this one is the minister among the foreign adults, even the emperor has to respect him, the world is so big, who can save himself.

"Haha, is this desperate? Resist, resist as much as you want, quickly, give me a rebellion. Screaming. Henry could see that the young woman was not screaming, and he couldn't help but be angry, and directly whipped a few times, causing the young woman to scream.

"It's ugly. A voice rang out slowly.

Henry couldn't help but be surprised, he had ordered, he was playing time now, and no one else could come in. Moreover, he was guarded at the door by six soldiers, each of whom had a gun.

Taken aback, Henry looked at where he had spoken.

Finding there, there was a man standing.

The man, wearing a black hat and a black mask on his face, showed only his mouth and eyes. Dressed in black clothes and draped in a black cloak, he blended in with the night.

This man is sitting on the windowsill, you must know that this is the third floor, and if you fall, it will break. But the man sat there calmly, not at all surprised.

"Who are you?" asked Henry, the British minister.

"Everyone else calls me the Night Man, and you can call me that. The man in black smiled.

"Night Man?" Henry muttered about the name, and immediately reacted that he had really heard of it. It is said that in the past six months of the Great Qing Dynasty, a thief has appeared, similar to Robinson, or Zorro.

Moreover, it is said that this man has super skills, and many rich and inferior gentry and a large number of thugs have died at the hands of this man. Several famous arresters of the Qing court also died at the hands of this person.

British Minister Henry nodded: "It turned out to be the Night Man, and the envoy had heard of your name." You're about the same as Rogue Zorro or something. But why are you here?"

"Of course I'm here to kill. The Night Man said lightly.

"Murder? Do you want to kill me?" You dare to kill me?" said the British Minister Henry proudly: "I am the British minister, you can see clearly. If I die here, I'm afraid that we in England will be furious. The dignified world's first empire, the minister of the empire on which the sun never sets, dares to go sideways in any country. ”

"If you kill me, the British will send a fleet to attack the Qing in a few minutes. When the time comes, the whole country will be in turmoil, and thousands of people will die. ”

"Aren't you a thief, because you are alone, so many people are going to die, and you can do such a thing?" said Henry, the British minister, with a sneer.

It turns out that his hole cards, his intentions, are here.

The Night Man couldn't help laughing: "Britain is not far from us, they will really send a large army for a minister, not even an ambassador." ”

"Second, Britain is really here, it's my business. If you want to fight with the Qing court, you can fight, and I also hope that the Qing court will fall as soon as possible. ”

Hearing the Black Night Man's answer, British Minister Henry couldn't help but change his complexion, he never thought that the Night Man, a thief, would not even care about the overall situation of the country.

However, Henry is not without hole cards, he sneered: "Since you are looking for death, then I will fulfill you." ”

"Come in. ”

Immediately, six men with rifles in their hands rushed in.

They immediately protected Henry.

At the same time, the muzzles of the muskets of the six of them were aimed at the night walk.

As soon as they pull the trigger, the bullet will be fired right away.
