"You, you!" Mei stared at him angrily, speechless in anger.

Xiao Ran knew that he had caused trouble, so he scratched his head in embarrassment, and said with a chuckle: "Ah, that, those things are not bad, they are all essences. Well, it is said that they can beautify the skin..."

"I'll let you beautify! I'll let you beautify! You bastard!"

Eyebrow picked up the boss's pillow and slammed it around, You couldn't help it, twisted Xiao Ran's ear, and said: "Dead eunuch, I, I treat you well, but you bully me! Tell me, how should I punish you?"

"Big deal, make out with my sister again!"

"Come again? You..."

"Hey. Well, I've made a lot of progress recently, and my combat power is booming. If you don't believe me, try it out!"

"Ah! Why are you here...don't, please spare me! Good brother,...ah...en..."

……

Indulge in joy until the fourth watch of the drum is over.After the passion, the two had no strength, hugged each other lazily, and talked about love in a low voice.But just when Xiao Ran was in a daze about to go to see Duke Zhou, there were three crisp knocks on the door.

"Ah, there's someone!" Mei suddenly woke up, her face paled with fright, and she was at a loss.However, Xiao Ran sighed heavily, raised his head and shouted: "Little Baozi, you're going to toss people around in the middle of the night, aren't you addicted?"

"Little Sanzi!" It was Baolu's voice outside the door, but it sounded a little anxious, "Hurry up and get dressed, something happened in the Prime Minister's Office!"

→Chapter 140 - The Japanese must have done it!←

Something happened to the Zongli Yamen? "

Xiao Ran was taken aback, grabbed a piece of clothing and put it on his body, without thinking about putting on his boots, he ran over to open the door.Eyebrow was shy and anxious, said in a low voice: "Don't let him in!" and got under the quilt.

Xiao Ran opened the door latch, and before he could speak, Baolu came in with extraordinary agility, kowtowed down on the bed with a smile, and said, "Auspicious Queen Mother." Mei listened under the quilt and almost fainted.

Xiao Ran was afraid that he was saying something else, so he quickly covered his mouth, and looked outside the door, seeing that there was no one else, he was relieved.He raised his leg and kicked it over, saying: "Little bastard, you can die if you don't say a few words!"

Baolu broke away from his arm and said, "Little Sanzi, how did you know it was me when you knocked on the door?"

Xiao Ran said angrily: "Except for you bastard, who else can come here after urging his life in the middle of the night? Stop talking nonsense, and quickly tell me what happened to the Prime Minister's Office?"

Baolu looked at the bed, his eyebrows were still tightly covered by the quilt, and he refused to show his head, and said: "The sixth prince sent someone to ask for an order, saying that Erjin, the British envoy, brought a group of people there When he entered the prime minister's office, he threatened to set the prime minister's office on fire. The sixth prince didn't dare to get rough with that foreign devil, and he couldn't stop him. Come on, young man, at least you have an idea!"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Ran immediately guessed that it must have happened that the four British ships killed more than 3000 foreign devils a few days ago.Look at the eyebrows.She still had no intention of speaking, knowing that she was too shy to show her face, she said to Baolu, "Well, you should call back first and tell Liu Ye that I'll be right there. What's the matter? Let him push me first. "

Baolu nodded and left, Xiao Ran hurriedly closed the door.Then Mei poked her head out from under the quilt, she was so anxious that she was about to cry, and said, "Damn little Sanzi, it's all because of you! Let Xiaobao know all this time, what should I do, what should I do?"

Xiao Ran smiled and said: "I know what to be afraid of, and he is not an outsider. Don't worry. Xiao Baozi has a very strict mouth, and he will never go out and talk nonsense."

Mei also knew that Xiao Ran had an unusual relationship with Baolu, but she still felt awkward.Rather than being afraid, it would be better to say ashamed.Slowing down, he said, "What's going on at the Prime Minister's Yamen? Why didn't you ask why the British guy came to make trouble again for no reason?"

Xiao Ran said: "Don't ask, I caused this incident. Those British devils who evacuated from Tianjin Port a few days ago were secretly killed by me..."

"what?!……"

Mei was sitting by the bed at this time, listening to Xiao Ran's words.Almost fell to the ground.It took a long time before he stammered: "Those thousands of British devils, you, you killed them all?!"

Xiao Ran chuckled, and said: "That's right, I killed them all. These sons of bitches murdered and set fire on our land, running amok. Want to leave? It's so easy! But don't worry, I'll handle it safely, uh That bastard Erjin should not be able to catch me, and he has nothing to do with me. Besides, I have already made plans on my side. If Erjin doesn’t come to me, I still plan to find him! I’ll go and see Let's see what tricks he can play for me."

As he spoke, he put on his clothes and put on his boots.Mei knows Xiao Ran's temper.It was useless to persuade him, he sighed, and tied his clothes for him on the bed, and said: "You ask Mei Liangfu to bring someone to go with you? There is a caretaker. I can rest assured."

Xiao Ran held her in his arms, and said: "Don't worry about it, I'm sure nothing will happen. This time the British guy came to make trouble, it's also an opportunity, when I come back, I'll tell you great news!"

Mei Qi asked, "What good news?"

Xiao Ran scratched the tip of her upturned nose, and said with a smile: "The secret must not be revealed! Let's go, I will take you back to Zhongcui Palace first."

The two dressed neatly, slipped out from the side door, sent eyebrows back to the palace, Xiao Ran came to the Shenwu Gate by himself, only found a guard to accompany him, and rode a bicycle to the Prime Minister's Yamen.Calling that guard was not pointing at him to protect himself, but just because he was afraid of getting lost.

It was almost five o'clock at this time, and the sky was gradually getting brighter.When I came to the gate, I saw a group of Qing soldiers muttering something in a low voice.A Qing soldier said angrily: "Fuck him, this foreign devil is so arrogant, he doesn't take us seriously at all! I don't know what the adults think, so many of us are not just for nothing, I'm afraid His bird?"

Another Qing soldier said with a smile: "He Lao Liu, are you fucking impatient? If this word reaches other people's ears, you will be beaten to death, and your whole family will be severely punished!"

Nahe Lao Liu is not only

On the contrary, he raised his voice and said, "So what? Xu that foreign devil bullied us to the point of saying something?"

Another Qing soldier twitched his lips and said, "Young Sixth, please save yourself. Foreign devils are invulnerable to weapons and weapons. How can we be opponents..."

Before he finished speaking, He Laoliu kicked him first, and said angrily: "Fart! Last year I watched Lao Maozi stand up, and we beat them to death; the year before last at Nianzishan, Eunuch Xiao in the palace led people to kill several people overnight. Thousand foreign devils, are you blind? Let your mother's shit go!"

The Qing soldier was also angry, and he punched him.The rest of the Qing soldiers hurriedly pulled away, saying: "Don't fight, don't fight, we are all brothers. Let's just do business, why bother with that idle time!... Ah, Mr. Xiao!"

Xiao Ran had been to the Prime Minister's Office several times, and the Qing soldiers who guarded the gate recognized him, so he quickly knelt down on one knee to greet him.Xiao Ran smiled and waved his hands, and said: "It's all free, I'm going to go." He patted He Laoliu's shoulder again, and said, "Your name is He Laoliu?"

He Laoliu is a straightforward man. Hearing him praise himself, his face turned red and he was speechless.Xiao Ran nodded and smiled at him, turned around and walked into the door.

Before entering the main hall, I heard a person growling in half-baked Chinese from a long distance: "It has nothing to do with you? It's easy to say! Why did the soldiers of the British Empire disappear as soon as they left Tianjin Port? People dead but not dead? Your Excellency, Prime Minister, don’t try to shirk responsibility for this matter! It’s the sea of ​​your Great Qing Kingdom, and our four warships and more than 3000 soldiers of the British Empire just disappeared for no reason! This thing You have to take full responsibility for it!"

After a pause, the voice suddenly increased a few degrees, and said: "I might as well tell you that a large number of warships of the empire have been dispatched at this moment, from Guangzhou to Dagu, all under the control of our artillery! This is by no means a threat. Your Excellency the Prime Minister, if you cannot give us a satisfactory answer today, we reserve the right to go to war at any time!"

There was another voice coming from inside, but it was much lower, and it was so subdued that I couldn't hear it clearly. I guess it was Yi who looked in through the door. Hey, this is still a government office of the Qing Dynasty. There is no Qing soldier, but three Forty British devils, armed with live ammunition, surrounded them.In front of the table in the middle, Erjin was slapping the table, staring and frowning.Cao and Wenxiang were sitting far away in the corner, also looking nervous.It seems that the six ministers of military affairs, except for one Shen Zhaolin who complained of illness, are all in order.

Xiao Ran coughed lightly, stepped into the threshold, clasped his fists at Erjin, and said, "Your Consul is well!" The sound immediately gathered the eyes of the people in the room. It was another pine, and the tears almost didn't come down.But Erjin jumped up and shouted: "Okay, you still dare to send him to your door! Soldiers, catch him!"

The foreign devils took up their guns and were about to rush forward.Xiao Ran stretched out his hand, and shouted: "Wait! It doesn't matter if you catch me. Since I can deliver it to my door, I won't run away. But Mr. Consul, you must be convicted first when you arrest someone. If you dare to ask me what mistake I made, it's worth it." Are you so inspiring?"

Erjin waved his hand to stop the soldiers, and said with a sneer, "Okay, Commissioner Xiao Qin, since you said so, let me ask you: You were the one who sent our imperial soldiers to the warship at Dagukou that day, why did you even leave the port? People and warships are missing? Where did you get them? If you don’t hand them over today, don’t blame me for being rude!”

"Missing?!" Xiao Ran's eyes widened, and he said in great surprise, "How is it possible? When we left the port that day, there was no storm, so how could it be possible for him to disappear? I said Mr. Consul, you don't have anything to do because you are full. Are you running here to have fun with me?"

Although Elgin could speak Chinese, he didn't know much about the slang in the market, so he couldn't help being taken aback, and said, "What's a joke?" Then he said angrily, "I got the news at noon yesterday, and I haven't eaten a bite of food until now, why? Will you be full? Hey, how come it’s time to eat! I’m asking you, where are my soldiers? Where are my warships?” He yelled and patted the table.The two blue eyes stared at Xiao Ran, wishing he could swallow him in one gulp.

"You ask me, who should I ask?" Xiao Ran sneered, and said, "Oh, it turns out that the consul suspects that I have something to do with the disappearance of the soldiers because I sent the soldiers aboard that day, right? Ask me a question or two!"

With a sneer, he took a step forward and said, "First, I, Xiao Ran, was not the one who delivered the ship at Dagukou that day? Besides me, I remember you, Mr. Consul. Since you keep saying, I will send the soldiers on board , it must be related to the disappearance, so I would like to ask: According to this logic, can I think that the consul is lying, clearly hiding the soldiers and warships, but came here to bite back, and the villain first complained?"

"you……"

Elgin was furious, and just about to speak, Xiao Ran didn't allow him a chance to speak, and took another step forward, saying: "Second, you saw it at the port that day, the entire port is only your warships of the British Empire, there are no large ships like mine. A ship from the Qing Dynasty, even a paddle sail. Dare to ask the consul for advice: Even if I really want to plot against your soldiers and warships, what can I use to compete with them? Could it be that my breath blows them into the sky? "

"This……"

"Third," Xiao Ran took a step forward again, almost touching Ergin's nose, "You also know that the warships of the British Empire are invincible in the world, and they are known as sea fortresses. As for the combat effectiveness of our Great Qingshui Division, you must be sure." I also have a good idea. Then I would like to ask the consul: On that day in Dagu, you and I watched your warship leave the port with our own eyes. With the speed of the British warship, how can our navy in the Qing Dynasty catch up? Even if we catch up, How can it be wiped out in one fell swoop?"

What Xiao Ran said was well-founded and Erjin was speechless.Yi immediately gained courage and straightened his back.full of energy.The Yiying Empire is known as the supremacy of the sea. How can we compete with mere naval forces of the Qing Dynasty?I told you before that all the ships of my navy, big and small, are on the register, and there is absolutely no transfer.Your Excellency the Consul.You insisted that it was my Qing Dynasty, which is clearly a subjective assumption! "

Wen Xiang, Bao Jun and others also said: "Yes. Since the British ships are so powerful, how dare we provoke them."

"To catch a thief is to catch the stolen goods. You can't just falsely accuse a good person with a red mouth and white teeth?"
