Chapter Twenty-Six: Only One Room Remains

"Lord Wang, who is this?" Thomas was startled when he heard Princess Jianning, who was standing beside Wang Kai dressed as a man, say in a very stubborn tone that he also wanted to learn to shoot, and looked at Princess Jianning with very curious eyes, but asked Wang Kai, who was standing opposite him.

"Oh, I'm sorry to you, he is one of the deputy of this official, his name is Ai Jianning, and he came to the post house with this official this time, mainly to assist this official in cooperating and negotiating with the two envoys of your country and France. This Lord Ai is still young, and sometimes he can't talk with his brain, and he is startled, which makes you laugh. As soon as he was asked by the Thomas standing in front of him, Wang Kai's head immediately became bigger, and after raising his eyebrows and glancing at Princess Jianning on the side, he was busy with a smiling face and introduced Thomas to Thomas.

"I see, from this point of view, you Daqing Kingdom are really young talents. Your Emperor of the Great Qing Kingdom is only just coming of age, and you two adults look even younger, so it is really enviable and admirable that you can take on such a great responsibility. After praising Wang Kai and Princess Jianning without hesitation, Thomas paused, and suddenly changed his words, showing a little embarrassed, and said: "Lord Wang, Lord Ai, from my personal point of view, I am very honored to be willing to teach you two marksmanship. However, I am not in a position to call the shots, and I need to consult the head of the mission of our country, His Excellency Michael, and only with his permission can I teach you marksmanship. I would like to say sorry to both of you very sorry. ā€

Wang Kai, who listened attentively, immediately felt that this Thomas was politely declining him and finding a reason that seemed very appropriate, and he was willing to stop there. Moreover, the foreigners in the British and French envoys to learn marksmanship was also a task assigned to him by Xuan Ye, and this imperial order could not be violated.

"Thomas, you see if that's good. After the official has finished speaking, let's leave it at that. As for you, go to your head of the legation, His Excellency Markle, for advice, and it seems to me that your head of the legation, His Excellency Michael, will be more than happy to have you teach us both marksmanship. Of course, this official is really just guessing. If we agree, we'll meet under the tree over there at the hour of Shen, and you, Thomas, will teach us how to shoot. Oh yes, what the official just said about Shen Shi is what you Westerners usually call three o'clock in the afternoon, so we'll see you there. Because the official has other business to do before the afternoon application, he has made an appointment with Thomas at this time. You don't shirk anymore, just do what the official just said. Wang Kai, who had a vow not to give up until he reached his goal, just thought about it for a while, and came up with an excellent countermeasure, he first stretched out his hand to Thomas and pointed to a towering tree in an open field outside the yard, and then he put his hands behind his back and said in a firm tone that could not be ignored.

Seeing the plenipotentiary ambassador of the Qing Dynasty emperor standing in front of him, who was young but very tough, Thomas naturally didn't dare to offend, so he had to nod and agree to Wang Kai's request, and bowed to Wang Kai and Princess Jianning with his fists, and turned to leave.

When Thomas walked away, Princess Jianning, who had been looking at the back of Thomas who was getting farther and farther away, approached Wang Kai's side, and asked in confusion: "Wang Kai, are you so sure, this foreigner named Thomas went back to ask them what envoy Michael, the head of the envoy corps, will approve him to teach marksmanship to the two of us?"

Seeing Princess Jianning standing in front of him with a puzzled look, Wang Kai felt that it was better not to tell her too much, so he sold Guan Zi and said: "Lord Ai Jianning Ai, there was a miraculous calculation Zhuge Liang Kong Ming in the past, and now there is an unpredictable prophet Wang Kai handsome guy, the reasons and mysteries of this, once you say it, it will not work, and the heavenly machine cannot be revealed, you just wait and see." ā€

Listening to Wang Kai's tricky and boastful words, Princess Jianning gave him a blank look, and then asked angrily: "Okay, I'm asking you another question, you just told that Thomas's foreigner that you have affairs to deal with before Shen Shi in the afternoon, what kind of affairs do you deal with?"

As soon as Princess Jianning's voice fell, Wang Kai immediately felt that his head was big, and after he sighed lightly, he replied tirelessly: "Do you still need to ask, look at this day, there is less than an hour left, it will be noon, we have to find the official of the post house first, and let him arrange a stay here for us." And this lunch problem also needs to be solved by the librarian. After noon, when you have eaten and drunk enough, do you want to take a lunch break for an hour so that you can recharge your energy and learn to shoot with Thomas's foreigner. ā€

As soon as Wang Kai's words fell, Princess Jianning asked another question: "We are new to the inn, and we are not familiar with the post house, so you didn't ask those soldiers outside to lead the way to find the pavilion officials." As far as I can see, there are very few more than 30 rooms in this post house, who knows that this librarian works in that room, is it possible that the two of us have to go to find this librarian room by room?"
