Chapter Seventy-Nine: Trouble


"Now there are many rumors in the Shangjing envoy that the people of our imperial court secretly sent people to kill the people of the English mission and detain those goods."

Chu Yu snorted lightly and handed the letterhead to Aunt Jin.

Feng Yi's news is one step faster than Aunt Jin's.

Aunt Jin was stunned for a moment, and then frowned: "It's ridiculous, who would believe this kind of thing, how can a big country do such a despicable thing, it's just a little" Chu Yu sat on the stool, holding his cheeks and looking at the shadows of the trees swaying outside the window: "Yes, who can believe it, but the missions of all countries that are coming now are only afraid that they are very uneasy in their hearts, if they are not of my race, their hearts will be different, this is applicable everywhere, and the envoys will inevitably be afraid in their hearts, especially." ” She raised her eyebrows slightly and sneered: "I'm afraid that someone will drag our pianist into the water." ” Chu Yu probably didn't realize when she would start to think of herself as a member of the Qin family.

On the other hand, Tang Sese noticed it and said seriously: "The head is the Tang family." ” Chu Yu was stunned, the topic changed too quickly, and she didn't react yet: "Ah." ” Aunt Kim: ". ” Chu Yu looked at Tang Sese's serious appearance, and wanted to laugh a little, but still nodded: "It's all, well, it's all it." ” She looked at Aunt Jin on the side, but when she saw Aunt Jin looking at her smile becoming more and more kind, she knew that she was very satisfied with what she had just blurted out.

Aunt Jin raised her hand and coughed lightly twice, and turned the topic back: "Ahem, the little lady said that it was okay to drag our qin family into the water." ” Chu Yu nodded, a hint of sharpness flashed in his eyes: "That's right, that's what you think, let's wait and see, this matter will definitely not be so stormy." ” Everything was as Chu Yu expected, and some of the letters from Shangjing could be received almost the next day, and the influence of those ridiculous legends became more and more great.

Because Dayuan has always had the practice of trading with overseas countries, it is natural to set up an envoy settlement area, which is near Xuanwu Street.

Many envoys and members of the mission heard the news that "the English mission had been killed, and the priceless goods had been secretly stolen by the Celestial Empire in the name of pirates", and they did not believe it at first.

After all, the Celestial Empire is so rich, and its trade surplus with them is huge.

But the rumors became more and more serious, and the goods that were believed to be the English mission also flowed to Shangjing, which made the envoys feel more and more uneasy.

The whole atmosphere was a little weird.

And on this day, when the twilight of Beijing is in the fourth day, Xuanwu Street has also entered the usual lively time.

In an exotic tavern, a middle-aged man dressed in a gorgeous brocade robe came.

With a bag in his hand, he entered the door and looked at the noisy tavern, but saw that it was full of people dressed in costumes from all over the world, talking and laughing loudly, raising a glass and drinking, occasionally mixed with the laughter of a few Central Plains prostitutes wearing Westerner clothes, and the little two who ran the hall were also black-haired and black-eyed Central Plains people, and they looked a little nondescript.

He looked left and right, skillfully sat down on a chair by the door, and shook the small Western-style rattle on the table: "Jingle Bell, Ding Dong" After a while, the little second ran over in a hurry, smiling cutely, but he couldn't hide the contempt in his eyes: "Yo, isn't this Uncle Chen, your days of entering Beijing and waiting for the household department to fill your vacancy are coming to an end, I haven't seen you for a few days, and my shopkeeper is still waiting for you to drink." ” What kind of place is Shangjing, it is a place where a brick is thrown out, and it can be smashed into a place where a third-grade official can be smashed into a place where there are many vacancies in order to make up for a good job every year, and I don't know how many officials come up to wait for the decree, and the consumption in Beijing is naturally not as good as the place below.

Many of these local officials live in inns, and after a long time, they are short of money, and they are not as happy as an ordinary ordinary person in Beijing, and they are very depressed, and they have to live on credit, and even pawn their own things.

Chen Da is also one of them, originally the county order of a small coastal place, this little two called him Uncle Chen, but it was just because he often used his calligraphy and paintings and the embroidery of his wife at home to exchange some silver and copper coins in the tavern to live.

There are many taverns like this in Xuanwu Street, and there are many people from all over the world, and the objects of the Central Plains are well known.

Seeing the contemptuous light in Xiao Er's eyes, the middle-aged man called Uncle Chen showed a kind of anger and arrogance on his face, and then said impatiently: "Go and tell your shopkeeper, I have made a great contribution, and I will soon go to work, and there are still some rare goods in my hand, if he wants to, I will give it to him before I leave, and there is something leaking out of my official's hand, which is enough for you to eat for a lifetime." ” When the little second heard this, he looked Uncle Chen up and down, his eyes stopped on his brocade clothes, and then said with a smile: "Oh, you are really developed, I will notify the shopkeeper to go." ” As he spoke, he served tea to Uncle Chen diligently, and immediately turned around again.

This tavern was opened by a Spaniard, called Diego, he was a cook on a ship, originally fluttered to the Central Plains just to do things with the ship, and then he envied the prosperity of the Central Plains, and didn't want to do that hard work on the ship, followed the people to Shangjing, simply took root on Xuanwu Street to open a tavern, specializing in the business of Fanren, and some private pawns, more than ten years passed in a flash.

This Diego shopkeeper naturally recognized that Chen Da, hearing this, his gray and blue eyes turned, and asked people to invite Chen Da into the room where he planned to plate, and he smiled and learned from the Central Plains people to make a move, and asked him with a strange but fluent pronunciation of the Central Plains: "Oh, Uncle Chen, I haven't seen you for a long time, your body is healthy."

Chen Da nodded arrogantly: "Thank you Diego shopkeeper, tomorrow the Japanese official will take office, there are some things for you to see if you need today, change some entanglements, and the official will not forget you in the future." ” Nadiego smiled and said, "Okay." ” As he spoke, he watched Chen Da take out the burden and open it.

As soon as the baggage was opened, Diego's eyes lit up.

There were a number of extremely delicate fans, identical, and several fine brocade pillowcases, which were at least twenty or thirty taels of silver in such a delicate embroidery.

Diego flipped through it and was very satisfied: "Where did you get the good things, these things are not many even in the big embroidery shops in Shangjing." ” Chen Da said a little arrogantly and impatiently: "If you do so much, just say that you can't accept it."

Diego flipped through the things lovingly, and said with a smile: "Collect, what other good things do you have?"

These things can be sold for a large price when he asks them to take them back to China privately.

Then the two bargained, and both sides got something that was satisfactory to each other.

Chen Da weighed the silver bag in his hand, and a trace of satisfaction flashed in his eyes: "I have something else here, do you want to?"

As he spoke, he hesitated for a moment, then pulled out a small pocket from the placket of his shirt and handed it to Diego.

Diego touched his big belly with one hand, took the pocket with the other, poured out the contents and looked at it, and was instantly stunned: "This is" "This should also be a Fanbang thing, it is the decoration worn by some women's heads, all of which are pure gold and pearls, you just look at it and give a price, I don't bother to take it to the pawnshop, anyway, I can't afford to give the price over there."

Chen Dadao.

Diego looked at the delicate headdress in his hand, his gray-blue eyes trembled slightly, and then when he raised his eyes again, he was still smiling at Chen Da: "Okay, this is a treasure, we will give you an estimate and take the silver, come." ” As he spoke, Diego gestured to the other chamber.

Chen Da didn't think much about it, only arrogantly touched his beard and chin: "Okay." ” When he turned around, he didn't see the gloomy light in Diego's eyes, and then the moment he turned around, Diego suddenly grabbed a vase on the side of the table and smashed it down on Chen Da's head.

"Bang" Chen Da staggered and turned around, looked at Diego in disbelief, and then his eyes went black and he fell.

Half a month later.

Yunzhou "Passing on Your Majesty's holy decree, the lord of Yu'an County and the envoys of various countries will clarify the missing goods of the British Mission in the Yamen Hall of Yunzhou."

A holy decree was transmitted directly to the pianist's embroidery workshop.

Chu Yu looked at the holy decree, and then looked at the brocade box in his hand, which contained a delicate jade decree with a capital seal on it.

"Grandpa Shen."

She shifted her gaze to the middle-aged eunuch who was sitting on her right hand and drinking tea.

The eunuch Shen who came to deliver the decree was born white and fat, with kind eyebrows, and said to Chu Yu with a smile: "This is the Su family token that the old lady asked me to bring you, if you have any needs, just use this token, the Su family will not dare to disobey." ” Looking at the glittering look in the eyes of the great eunuch Shen, Chu Yu knew that this person must be one of her grandmother's henchmen, otherwise where would he be able to bring this important token and give her the thing so loudly.

"Our family should live in Yunzhou for a while, waiting to find out the truth of the matter, if the county lord has anything to ask, just ask our family."

That Shen Gonggong smiled.

Chu Yu also showed a gentle smile: "Then it will be annoying to my father-in-law." ” She may not know what connections the Su family has, but this Shen Gonggong must know it if she thinks about it.

The old lady gave her someone to deal with it, worried that she wouldn't be able to handle it.

No matter what, Chu Yu's heart warmed for the sake of the old man's heart.

"Look at this matter, I'm afraid it's a big fuss, and now those envoys everywhere say that we have a black hand on the British mission, saying that they have seized the evidence, and even the name has been made in the Jinluan Palace, and the people don't know who has been instigated, they just think that the people are slandering us, and then many people rushed to Xuanwu Street to smash and rob it, I think you also know."

Gonggong Shen sighed.

"After the matter became big, someone has already handed over a credential, asking us to give an explanation to the missions of various countries, otherwise we may have to join forces to go to war, Your Majesty will hand over this matter to you, the old lady is very worried."

Gonggong Shen frowned.
