"Huh..." Due to the fact that the emperor of the Hua Kingdom went to court very early, when the eunuch of the palace came to the old house of the Lin family, Liz yawned and got up. Just in the face of the emperor's old man's summons, he actually clearly refused, "No, I'm just here to do business, why should I go to see the emperor of your country?"
"?!" The eunuch headed by the eunuch has obviously never encountered such a situation. The Lord of the World summons, who dares to delay, who dares to shirk, and who dares to refuse, this is something that will be beheaded, so it is inconceivable to hear that. stunned.
"Bold!" This is the cry of the big brother behind.
(Bang!) This is the sound of the soldiers in the back drawing their knives.
(Clang!) This is the sound of the machetes of the soldiers behind.
"So, it's the same as the Qianhu Institute in Yangzhou," Liz shook his hand, Zhang Jing and Murong Jiu jumped off the roof, while Wang Yuanji and Sakuya walked out from the other side of the courtyard. It was the four of them. The hidden weapon threw down the machetes in the hands of the officers and soldiers, "You also want to attack us?"
"..." The eunuch at the head finally reacted, turned around and slapped the soldier who had just called "bold", scolding angrily, "Who asked you to order the drawing of the sword, this is His Majesty's honored guest, scaring the honored guest, you are responsible for it. Can you afford it!?"
Brother Bing, who was slapped in the face, also knew what the current situation was. If something happened here, even if they didn't die on the spot, they would definitely not get any benefit. Punishment!"
"That slap is good, and the speed, strength, and sound are top-notch, so I'll take it that way," Liz turned his gaze to the soldiers behind, "Or, do you still want to challenge the muskets again? Down?"
"How dare this old slave!" The eunuch hurriedly put on a smile.
What happened just now, he didn't see clearly at all, anyway, as soon as he turned his head, he saw that all the soldiers he brought with him were injured on the backs of their hands. But now whether or not there is any suspicion that these people are monsters in human skins, for the sake of their own safety, they still have to smile at each other. Even the original eunuch's self-proclaimed "miscellaneous family" in front of outsiders has become the self-proclaimed one when facing a specific person. "Old slave".
"It's just that if the captain doesn't follow the old slave back to the palace, it will be difficult for the old slave to explain to His Majesty..." The eunuch looked embarrassed.
"I care about you?" Liz didn't even look at his old face, and the beautiful woman deserves sympathy, "Why should I run into the Longtan Tiger Den by myself? The talented people I recruited from all over the world, every one Taking one against one hundred, being invulnerable to bullets and not afraid of bullets, does not mean that it is difficult for me to fight, and it is safer to stay with them."
The per capita of the Yangzhou Thousand Households can prove that Leeds is very good at fighting... Regrettably, this is the capital, and few people know about it.
The eunuch thought to himself, "No wonder it's so scary," and continued to persuade him: "Your Excellency, Captain, don't worry. Today's saints are known for their benevolence, and they will never murder guests who come from afar for no reason. Your Excellency can rest assured to follow me to the palace."
He said these words casually from beginning to end. The emperor of this dynasty was neither known for his benevolence, nor would he guarantee that he would not kill foreigners. He was simply trying to coax Leeds into the palace, and he could say anything.
"Are you sure you can say it's 'no reason' now?" Liz looked over in surprise.
"Er..." The eunuch was speechless.
Yesterday, Prince Zhongshun entered the palace to make a small report. His servants were beaten by foreigners, and even his own actors were let go. Even if the relationship between the emperor and Prince Zhongshun is not very good, for the sake of being from the royal family, it is enough for the emperor to order these foreigners to be killed. Naturally, Leeds is the first to bear the brunt.
"Hmph, I can enter the palace with you!" Liz said casually as if "I don't want to enter the palace at all", but said casually, "unless I wear the best armor and the best weapons, anyway. Have the confidence not to be strangled in the deep palace!"
The eunuch's first reaction was naturally to shake his head. Except for the guards of the forbidden palace, who else could bring a weapon to the palace to face the saint? But after thinking about it for a while, it was Your Majesty who made the final decision. As long as he roughly completed his work, he would not be punished. He still said very cleverly: "…Yes, or? Captain, please prepare your armor and weapons first, After I report to Your Majesty, will you decide whether to enter the palace?"
"Eh~ It's so troublesome?" Liz had an expression of disgust, but like a compromise, he lowered his head and sighed, "Forget it, if the Emperor of China wants to meet us Western barbarians that much, then prepare to go."
"… great! We're going right away?"
"What's the hurry, I still have to wash and eat breakfast, and I have to prepare armor and weapons." Liz turned around and walked out of the room, leaving behind the eunuch and others who were messed up in the wind.
They can't see the smile on Liz's face as they turn around.
On this side, everything went according to the script.
…
"This minister opposes! The mere western barbarians dare to challenge our country's heavenly power over and over again. At this time, we should immediately dispatch troops to wipe out all his partisans, instead of continuing to condone their evil deeds as Admiral Li said. !"
After the eunuch conveyed Leeds' words back to the palace, he was successfully exonerated, as everyone focused their hatred on Leeds. The court officials showed their loyalty to the monarch and patriotism, and tried to kill Leeds. Li Huamei, who openly supported the arrival of Leeds, was condemned as a matter of course.
"I have never forgotten for a moment that the blood flowing in my blood is the blood of China." It is impossible for the emperor to show his generosity and endure it. Li Huamei has long thought of a countermeasure. With one to one hundred, they are distributed all over the capital, not to mention their huge ship that far exceeds the size of our warships, they may bombard the capital at any time. Once their leader is killed, the minister is worried that they will make the capital flow into a river of blood. Please think twice, Your Majesty!"
"Alarmist! There are dozens of people, how come they have such skills!" A certain minister with a pedantic look angrily said.
"The incident of the Qianhu House in Yangzhou and the recent incident of the Prince Zhongshun can be used as evidence." Li Huamei looked around, as the only woman in the hall, her aura was above the others, "Or else, my lords, you I think that I, Li Huamei, who has been leading the Li family army to actively fight against Japanese pirates, will fabricate lies about this kind of thing!"
"...!" Leaving aside this matter now, everyone mentions Li Huamei as "a woman who doesn't let a man be a man", and she doesn't move.
"Your Majesty, for the sake of your safety, this minister thinks that he can follow his words and monitor with heavy troops," Li Huamei said, "At the same time, we can declare to the outside world and ask him to bring Western armor into the palace to pay tribute."
"...Just follow what Admiral Li said." After listening to it for a long time, His Majesty, the potbellied emperor, who was sitting high on the dragon chair, finally made a decision.
"..." Li Huamei sighed and slowly closed her eyes.
On this side, it is also going according to the script.
