Xiao Ran's wishful thinking is not incompetent, but Elgin is the consul of a country after all, so he is very treacherous.When Xiao Ran proposed to send troops to help, he immediately refused.What he needs is a balance of power in East Asia, including the exclusive right to Japan's interests. Of course, he is unwilling to let China take a share of this sensitive time.

Xiao Ran observed the words and expressions, and knew that Erjin was on guard, rolled his eyes, and said with a generous smile: "The combat effectiveness of our Qing Dynasty Navy, the Consul is clear, if we really go out with your country's fleet, I'm afraid it will become a drag But China and Britain have been friendly for generations. As the most loyal friend of the British Empire in the Far East, I, the Qing Dynasty, cannot sit idly by. In this way, I will invite the emperor and queen mother to open ports for your warships, open up routes, and protect your soldiers In a word: resolutely and unconditionally support!"

Elgin was overjoyed and said: "Your Excellency, you are indeed the most honorable friend of the British Empire! Our country is also willing to provide the most powerful support and assistance for your country's railway construction and trade. As for the Japanese slave country, dare to invade my British Empire The empire's fleet is openly provocative, this time I must let him

A heavy price! "

Yizi's heart returned to his stomach.The two sides shook hands and talked happily, and Ergin returned to the British consulate to draft a letter, preparing to go to war with Japan without mentioning it.

After sending Erjin away, Yiyu waited for a long time before he said cautiously: "Brother Xiao, although Japan is a small country, the United States, Britain, Russia, and Holland are spying on it. It is the safest policy to protect oneself wisely and wait and see the changes. And if Britain really goes to war this time, with its strong ships and powerful guns, it will definitely be captured. At that time, the British ships will occupy the Japanese port, and Japan will be close to the Qing Dynasty. I'm afraid there will be a disaster for the fish in the pond!"

As soon as Xiao Ran heard it, he understood that Yi wanted to take the opportunity to get his hands on Japan's intentions, which was clearly admonishing himself not to set himself on fire.In this way, the four British warships were killed, and he must have guessed that it was his own hands and feet.In fact, if Yi Yi's mobilization of troops was really tricked, then his nickname of Devil Six would be in vain.

With a laugh, Xiao Ran said: "What Liu Ye said is extremely true. China and Japan are close neighbors. If it suffers disaster, it is impossible to guarantee that China will not be affected. If this is the case, then we should act first. Taking advantage of the internal turmoil in Japan, we will also How about going to get him a fortune?"

"Ah? Brother Xiao, do you really want to use troops against Japan?" Yi didn't dare to persuade him too deeply, he could only think carefully: "The British and French powers are arrogant and rude. Once the Qing Dynasty sends troops, these foreign devils will definitely intervene. Besides, with the current national strength of the Qing Dynasty, if we raise our troops and fight across the ocean, this, I'm afraid..."

Xiao Ran's face suddenly darkened, Yi Zili was frightened.Xiao Ran took a deep breath, and said: "The old saying is good: How can you allow others to sleep soundly on the side of the couch! The Japanese devils are wolfish ambitions, if they are tolerated, they will become serious troubles! I have made up my mind on this matter, so you don't need to worry about it That's it. As for sending out troops, heh heh, is there any need for a small Japan to mobilize troops?"

"Yes, yes!" Yi Wuyuan has no hatred these days. Although he enforces the maritime ban, he specially opened the Nagasaki seaport for China to allow trade.If you don't count pirates and Japanese pirates, it should be said that you get along with a relatively qualified good neighbor, at least a hundred times better than Tsarist Russia who is eyeing you!But I don't know where the Japanese offended Xiao Ran, the God of Plague. Alas, it seems that the Japanese slaves are going to be in bad luck this time!

Xiao Ran patted Yi to be on the job, I will never wrong you. "As soon as the word "white powder" was mentioned, it was obvious that King Yi was only humbled now, and Xiao Ran felt a lot of emotion in his heart. He got up to leave, and when he left, he suddenly remembered something, and said: "The man on duty at the gate of the yamen Among the guards, one named He Laoliu was very nice, and he turned around and told him to find him a head guard or something. "

Yi went to Zhongcui Palace to have a look, Mei hadn't gone to sleep yet, and was walking back and forth anxiously, while Lan Er kept comforting her.

Seeing Xiao Ran, Mei hurriedly said: "How is the matter going? Is the foreign devil leaving?"

At this time, there were eunuchs and maids in the hall, Xiao Ran hurriedly followed the rules and greeted Mei and Lan'er respectively.Lan'er pretended to take a step inadvertently, and stepped aside.

Mei ordered the others to retreat, and Lan'er also bowed to her eyebrows, saying: "The queen mother has recovered, and Lan'er dare not overstep the affairs of the great government, so I have to boldly ask the queen mother to take it back, praying to return to live in the cold palace, hoping for the queen mother's permission .”

Eyebrows hurriedly pulled her up and said: "Sister, didn't we discuss it just now? Anyway, you are also Chun'er's biological mother-in-law. Now the emperor is young and needs the support of our sisters. With you here, something big will happen. I also have someone to discuss with Xiaoqing! Why do I have to go back to the cold palace?"

While talking, he frequently winked at Xiao Ran, intending to ask him to persuade him.Xiao Ran coughed and looked up at the sky, pretending not to see it.

Seeing it, Lan'er felt her nose sore, her eye circles turned red immediately, and said in a low voice, "The Queen Mother should let me go back. I'm here...it's quieter, I'm used to it."

Seeing Lan'er's resoluteness, Mei knew that persuasion was useless, so she sighed.Lan got up and bowed his head and hurried away.Mei couldn't help but said angrily: "Little Sanzi, I winked at you, didn't you see?"

"I saw it, so what? Who knows if she is doing a bitter trick, pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger. It's not like you don't know what kind of character she is. Besides, it's up to you and Liu Ye to discuss important matters in the court now." Come on, isn't it all handled properly? There is no need to point at her."

"You... ugh!"

Mei couldn't help sighing.Xiao Ran's attitude towards Lan'er has always been like this, Mei knows that he has always been prejudiced, but she doesn't know how to persuade him.Shaking his head, he said, "Let's not talk about this for now. What happened to the British Devils at the Prime Minister's Office?"

Xiao Ran giggled, and said: "The head manager will go out in person, what's wrong with that?" He then explained the matter in detail.When it comes to killing more than 3000 British devils and four British ships with hydrogen balloons and aerial bombs, Mei was dumbfounded, and it took a long time to let out a breath, and said, "My god, little three, you Isn't your guts too big?!"

"What is this! Those bastard British devils massacred the people of an entire village in the Qing Dynasty. That's more than 400 lives! If they really let them go like this, God will not spare me!"

Xiao Ran took a sip of tea, and told the truth about framing the Japanese.Then he said his plan and planned to secretly go to Japan.Meidi's expression suddenly became tense, and he said: "Fight the Japanese slave country? Why, the relationship between the Japanese country and our Qing Dynasty has always been relatively peaceful. Besides, the situation in the Qing Dynasty has just stabilized, and it is time to benefit agriculture and business. How can we fall into it again? In the midst of endless wars? If you launch it rashly, you may be criticized by the British and French countries. If there are other accidents, there will be endless troubles!"

Originally, Xiao Ran took it as good news to his sister to go to Japan, but unexpectedly, she questioned it.But if you think about it carefully, it is true that before the Meiji Restoration in Japan, the relationship with China was not bad.Excluding the Jiajing Japanese Rebellion in the Ming Dynasty is a non-government act.There are basically no major conflicts between China and Japan, so it is no wonder that Mei has objections.

After pondering for a while, Xiao Ran slowly said: "China has always been a country of etiquette, we pay attention to neighborliness and friendship, humility and courtesy, and will not take the initiative to invade and expand brutally. But now, why are there still big powers trampling on our land? On? Have the disasters we suffered from wars been reduced because of our kindness? The British, the French, the Americans, so many Western powers, which one has China invaded? But in the end, these countries still rely on ships and guns Lee, time and time again blasting open our country, killing my compatriots, insulting my sisters, plundering my wealth, destroying my homeland!

"In the two Opium Wars, the British and French coalition forces burned, killed, and looted. They fought all the way to the city of Beijing, forcing the royal family to hunt north in panic; until now, black opium is still poisoning the people of the Qing Dynasty, and the opium in the pockets of foreign devils But it is white money, and it also has the dignity of our Qing Dynasty! The so-called etiquette and education, how pale in front of the invaders! These evil invaders, the crimes they committed in China. One piece after another Pile, isn't that enough?

"Mei'er, not every country in this world is like us, who abide by etiquette, benevolence and morality. When huge profits and wealth burn the greedy eyes of the invaders, the only thing left is plunder and killing. China There is an old saying that people have no intention of attacking tigers, tigers hurt people's hearts, and people do not offend dogs, but who can guarantee that dogs will not bite people?

"I yearn for peace, but since ancient times, the so-called peace has only been established on the basis of iron and blood conquest. Without a strong national power, a strong army, a tough regime, and no cruel wars and bloody sacrifices, how can there be peace?

"In order to avoid unnecessary catastrophe, the only thing we can do is to plan ahead. Whether it is for the Russians or the Japanese slaves, only by letting them submit to your feet forever can we get real peace. Once Let them become stronger, and the common people of the Qing Dynasty, the hundreds of millions of people, will really fall into a catastrophe!"

Although Xiao Ran's voice was deep and low, his brows were terrified.The Opium War, the foreign criminals, all this happened in front of our eyes, this is the lesson of blood and fire!But if you want to brazenly use force against Japan in order to take precautions, you always feel that you can't bear it. After a long silence, you said with your eyebrows: "Little Sanzi, although I am in charge of politics, I am still a woman. If you insist on conquering the Japanese slave country , I don’t know how to dissuade them. However, a war disaster will end up costing lives. Otherwise, can we follow the example we did with Tsarist Russia and Prussia last time?

Isn't it beautiful to conclude a military alliance to avoid wars and contain them at the same time? "

Xiao Ran secretly sighed, Mei is too kind after all, she has benevolence towards everyone, if it were Lan Er, she would never say such a thing.Perhaps this is the biggest difference between the two women!

"Different countries and nations need to be treated differently. Japan is a beast nation with the nature of a wolf. As long as it seizes the opportunity, it will bite people crazily and be insane. To deal with such a nation, in addition to completely conquering it by force, There is simply no other way out."

"This..." Mei shook his head helplessly, and couldn't figure out why Xiao Ran had such a deep hatred for the Japanese Nuhui.Xiao Ran saw her thoughts, pondered for a while, and said: "Mei'er, I've been by your side for a long time, don't you think I've made mistakes every time I make a judgment?"

Mei smiled and said: "Of course not. The youngest son is wise and powerful, and he has strategized, how could he go wrong?"

"That's it! For this Japanese slave country, I dare to assert that if it is allowed to go unchecked, within a few decades, it will definitely become a serious problem for my Qing Dynasty. When that time comes, it will be impossible to stop it It's too late!" After a pause, Xiao Ran said again: "This time, in order to avoid interference from Britain, France and other countries, it is impossible to make a big fanfare when going to Japan, and the number of people is at most a thousand. As for how many Japanese slaves will there be? Unlucky, it depends on their own luck!"

Seeing that Xiao Ran had made up his mind, he sighed lightly and leaned his head on his shoulder.But then, as if he had sensed something, he raised his head abruptly, and said in a voiceless voice: "More than a thousand people? Xiao Ran, you... you want to bring your people to conquer again?!"

Xiao Ran nodded solemnly and said, "Yes."

Eyebrow panicked immediately, grabbed Xiao Ran's sleeve, and said, "Why? Last time you went to fight the red-haired ghost, it was because I expelled you from the palace. Do you know that you have been away for more than half a year, and I have always regretted myself I am so worried, I am so worried! Now that I have just settled down, you are going to leave me again, and you are traveling across the ocean. If something happens, how do you want me to live? You, you..." Eye circles reddened, Tears flowed down immediately.

Seeing her pitiful appearance, Xiao Ran's heart softened, and he quickly reached out to wipe her tears.But Mei threw his arm away vigorously, and said angrily: "Liar! Didn't you say that you would stay with me forever and never leave again? It's all a lie!"

Persuaded from left to right, but Mei cried more and more fiercely.Xiao Ran shook his head and sighed: "Oh, there is no other way. It seems that there is only..."

"Let go of me, liar!... Ah, what are you doing? No, it's broad daylight..."

Mei beat Xiao Ran's shoulders desperately, but as the pair of sinful palms and hot lips continued to move, attacking the city, her body gradually weakened...

In the tassel tent, the panting took a long time to calm down.She leaned her eyebrows on Xiao Ran's chest, and gently fiddled with his black buttocks.Xiao Ran remained silent.

"Hey, why don't you talk?"

"I……"

"Are you still thinking about going out?"

"..."

After a long silence, Mei suddenly sighed faintly.

"Little Sanzi, in fact, I'm just worried about you. How can you let me feel at ease when I went to Japan and crossed the ocean all the way? What kind of hatred do you have with the Japanese slaves? Is it worth taking such a big risk? Going out, there are so many generals in the Qing Dynasty, and the team in your hands is brave and good at fighting, can't you send others to go?"

"I can promise you anything, but this is the only thing I can't. Mei'er, I think everyone has a dream in their hearts. Living in this era, my biggest dream is to lead my subordinates to Japan one day." Let that beast nation surrender under my feet, and can only worship us with its tail between its legs! Don’t ask me why I hate Japanese slaves so much, maybe it’s because I was born with such blood in my bones! And now This game is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for me, Meier, I hope you can make it happen!"

Another moment of silence.

"You... really have to go?"

"Lifetime wish!"

"Then, you have to promise that nothing will happen, otherwise, see if I will spare you!"

"Well, I promise you! I will definitely bring you back the third son intact, okay?"

"Little Sanzi, you... oh!"
