It is said that Liu Xiaoqi kidnapped Hao Qiao's niece Aunt Hao. After entering the Zhao Kingdom, he relaxed and chatted with Aunt Hao before continuing on his way. When he arrived in Handan the next day, he handed Aunt Hao to his colleagues. Liu Xiaoqi blew
Whistling, he went to the next room to rest.
They lived in a posthouse, a posthouse run by the Zhao government. There were envoys from various countries in the posthouse, and armed police patrolled the inside and outside. It was the middle of the night, and someone knocked three times outside Aunt Hao's window. She hurriedly opened the window. A man in black was walking at night.
Someone jumped in and asked in a low voice: "How is aunt?"
Aunt Hao said, "I have nothing to do." Then she told him about passing by on the way. She said, "I don't know which country this person is from. When he entered the post house just now, he took out the official seal of the Qin State."
The night traveler said: "In that case, I'll bother my aunt to work hard for a few more days, and we'll talk about it when we get to Laizhou." Aunt Hao nodded, and the night traveler went out through the window.
After daybreak, Liu Xiaoqi left the post house. Two men holding the official seal of the Zhao State took over Aunt Hao and escorted her away from Handan. They changed into a carriage and rushed to the State of Lu. Shortly after entering the State of Lu, the carriage drove into a certain county at noon.
It was a big house. The three of them had a simple meal, and Aunt Hao went upstairs to freshen up.
When I was about to get up in the afternoon, one of the escorts smiled and said: "Aunt Hao, we will change cars from now on."
Aunt Hao was stunned: "A car?"
"Yes, cars." Another said, "Do you have any cars in Jin State?"
The first one laughed and said: "How can there be cars in Jin? Jin is still in primitive society. Let alone that there are cars, I have never even heard of them." They all laughed in unison.
That laughter was very harsh in Aunt Hao's ears. She thought for a while: "I heard that the regent of Yan State gave a car to our old lady Han when she congratulated her on her birthday."
The two of them were still laughing: "What's the use! You can't even buy gasoline!" Then they urged Aunt Hao to leave quickly.
The three of them boarded a car, the two of them sat in the front, and Aunt Hao sat in the back. Then they drove the car and started running. Aunt Hao was shocked - this car was much faster than a carriage, and could outpace the fastest military horses. There was no one in the front.
The person driving the car said: "When the horses are tired, they must rest or be replaced. There is no need for cars, just refuel. This can save a lot of horses."
After that, the two Zhao Guo officials took turns driving. Instead of rushing on a starry night, they were somewhat leisurely. There were not many cars on the road, and the drivers were all impressive. A few days later, at dusk, the three of them arrived in Laizhou. There was an inn in the city near the harbor.
, Hao Qiao was imprisoned here. When the aunt and nephew met, they hugged each other and cried. Hao Qiao was shackled, and his food was mixed with medicine, so he couldn't escape.
It turned out that the charcoal calligraphy and painting was hurriedly brought out by a food delivery person when Hao Qiao was in Handan. There were no monks there. It was obvious that the thing fell into the hands of the enemy and was used. Hao Qiao sighed and passed by after he was captured.
Said it once.
Aunt Hao was shocked: "It was Jia Cong who did it?!"
Hao Qiao smiled bitterly and said, "Even if you know, there's no point in getting even the slightest bit of news out." Then he asked his niece how she got here. Aunt Hao also told how she was kidnapped. Hao Qiao shook his head and said, "I was thinking, Jia Cong
This person is quite afraid of me, and may make people test you. Depending on your intelligence, I may be able to guess some traces. After all, he is still in our Taiyuan City. If we can capture him, it will be much easier to save me.
Yeah. Who knew he was so good at it."
Aunt Hao smiled and said, "Well done, aunt." Then she winked.
Hao Qiao frowned, then looked at his niece's clothes and asked in surprise: "They didn't change clothes for you?"
Aunt Hao said: "No. I am a woman, and the people I escort on the road are all men."
Hao Qiao hurriedly pulled her and asked in a low voice: "Is there anyone in the library looking for you?" Aunt Hao nodded repeatedly with bright eyes and a smile on her face. Hao Qiao stumbled and said, "We can have a few more people to accompany us to Nanyang.
." Aunt Hao was stunned. Hao Qiao shook her head and said nothing.
It was already dark at this time, and the lights outside were brightly lit. Several bright lights in the courtyard lit up, and Aunt Hao was surprised: "What kind of lights are those? It's so bright!"
"Battery circuit light." Hao Qiao looked out the window and murmured, "We are really no match. Forget it, just admit defeat."
Not long after, someone knocked on the window. Aunt Hao hurriedly opened the window. The traveler from the previous night jumped in and saluted Hao Qiao with tears in her eyes: "Commander Hao, my subordinates waited for the rescue to arrive late. Please forgive me."
Hao Qiao sighed: "How many people are here."
"Thirty-six people."
"So many?" Hao Qiao frowned, "Will the prince agree? Does the palace have enough manpower?"
The night traveler smiled and said: "The prince said that his subordinates must find Commander Qiao, no matter how many people they have."
Hao Qiao rolled his eyes and said, "It doesn't matter, the food and clothing expenses are all from their federation." Both Ye Xingren and Aunt Hao were stunned. Hao Qiao sighed again, "Jia Cong's subordinates are so careful in their actions, how can they do it?"
When you track down such a big flaw, this is their territory."
Just as he was talking, there was a whistle outside the window and the street lights suddenly went out. The night walker hurriedly poked his head out and saw an unknown number of soldiers wearing round helmets emerging from the surrounding walls of the courtyard, holding muskets and pointing at the roof and the courtyard. The night walker he brought
The people were surrounded. They were shocked.
Hao Qiao said loudly: "Okay. They are ambushed from all sides, and the firearms are much stronger than ours, so they can't beat us. Let's leave it like this." He ordered his men to surrender. Not long after, thirty-six people followed from the Jin Kingdom.
All the night travelers were captured.
A short and fat official came over with a smile and handed over to Hao Qiao: "Uncle Hao, thank you for your hard work. We have discussed it with Lord Zhou. You all will board the ship tomorrow morning and sail directly to Coconut City, the capital of Java. Princess Zhou Damei will meet you then.
I’ll pick you up at the port. Have a good holiday. If you want to write a letter to your family to say you’re safe, I’ll write it tonight.”
Hao Qiao said with a half-smile but not a smile: "Then I believe you won't add anything else."
The official said righteously: "We have to open it for inspection. We can't let you tell the truth."
Hao Qiao said: "I just don't understand why you took so many of us to Nanyang."
The official waved his finger and said: "The number of people in the Jin State Library has decreased by thirty-six. Your Fourth Highness has contacted SHIELD, which is a SHIELD that recognizes money but not people."
"SHIELD?" Hao Qiao frowned, "What does he have to do with SHIELD?"
The official said casually: "It's a long story. There was a girl whose elders made a fortune in North America and hired SHIELD to pick her up from Jin and pass by Zhao. The girl saw that the persimmons on the street were very sweet, so she bought them
Ten kilograms, she hired SHIELD to deliver it to her lover. That lover was your Fourth Highness, Situ Wei. Situ Wei was smart and guessed on the spot who the person who bought the persimmons was, and also guessed that the man who delivered the goods to him was no ordinary salesman.
So we got on the line."
Hao Qiao thought for a moment and said, "S.H.I.E.L.D. is not difficult to find, but hiring them is very expensive. How much money does the Fourth Highness have?"
The official smiled and said: "No problem. Our prince has an old friendship with SHIELD. We have agreed that they will only quote one-tenth of the price for Situ Wei, and we will pay the rest of the difference. Anyway, we are neither short of money nor short of people.
.Unlike you, the King of Jin, it costs money to build railways, it costs money to redeem fine works, it costs money to rebuild the imperial city. Seeing that the flood season is coming, the Fen River may be flooded, and even more money will be spent. The treasury is empty! Talents are also missing.
Master. We have spent some troubles to coax you to leave Taiyuan, so the library is missing thirty-six or seven people, isn't it? We have more than three hundred people outside, and these people will follow the sea ships to escort you to Nanyang tomorrow. And our manpower
We still have as many as we need. Even if we employ one to ten people, Jin will not be able to consume us at all."
Hao Qiao was stunned. After a long while, he smiled bitterly and said: "It's true...it can't be used up. I still don't understand what your prince is planning."
The official counted his fingers and said, "Uncle Hao, don't worry. You will know after you walk around Java for a while and read the newspapers." He then looked at the prisoners and said, "Don't worry, everything will be fine with your family.
"Yes." He handed over his hands and left.
As soon as he left, everyone went to see Hao Qiao. Hao Qiao said, "Ask them for pen and paper to write a letter. You won't be able to come back in a year and a half." He turned around and saw that the circuit lights in the courtyard were on, and he sighed again.
Early the next morning, Hao Qiao and others were escorted onto the ship by soldiers and left the port into the sea. They talked about escaping, but they couldn't even find a chance to report the news. Thirty or forty people stood on the bow of the ship, watching the coast getting farther and farther. Hao Qiao
After thinking for a while, he asked the escorting general: "Your federation has placed so many soldiers in Lu State, doesn't Lu State care?"
The general said: "Although Lu has not yet joined the Federation, it has already been our territory." Hao Qiao was stunned, then smiled bitterly.
Two flowers bloomed, one on each side. The library of the State of Jin received a letter from a colleague from the State of Zhao, saying that he had followed Aunt Hao. She was kidnapped by an official of the State of Qin and was about to be sent to the Laizhou Port of the State of Lu to meet with Commander Qiao.
He was kidnapped and taken to Java. The King of Jin was shocked. Unexpectedly, his second son was involved in several countries, and he ordered to be more vigilant.
The Yushitai began to investigate the cases committed by the Crown Prince's men in detail. Since the Third Prince's men had already given all the important information, it was very easy to investigate. Within a few days, more than a dozen adults had been imprisoned. Jia Cong hurriedly reported to the Jin Dynasty.
The king sent a letter, saying that his country in North America lacks the most population, especially people who can read. If the prince wants to severely punish these officials of your country, please don't kill them, sell them to me. Last time I went back to Qi State to rectify the government.
, inspected dozens of families, and bought them all to the Western Kingdom of England. Now many of them have become Empress Liu's staff. When the King of Jin saw that these people could still be sold for money, it happened that the lonely king still had so many fine works to spend money on.
I went to redeem it. I immediately agreed with a stroke of my pen.
Of the five adult princes, four of them closed their doors and thought about their mistakes. Only Situ Wei could still hang out outside the palace. Every day he went to the Zhongshu Provincial Yamen to discuss matters with Zhang Su and others, and he was favored every day. There is never a shortage of speculators in the world. Suddenly someone came.
He began to seek refuge in his house, give gifts and please him. Situ Wei shook his fan and sighed: "You can be considered as living like a privileged class."
He was thinking that the people who had come to him were not outstanding yet, and he lacked a reliable person around him. However, he had just started in the outer court, so he couldn't be too conspicuous. After thinking about it for a long time, he thought of a person, so he sent a message to Gan Kexi in code words.
, and asked him to meet tomorrow night. Gan Kexi replied immediately, saying that he would not be available tomorrow night, so he would change it to the day after tomorrow. Situ Wei agreed.
But just now someone sent me a post. It turns out that tomorrow is Han Fei's birthday, and he invited a few people to have a drink in a village in the suburbs. He borrowed his grandmother's car to play with. He thought that the Fourth Prince liked that thing, and tomorrow happened to be his birthday.
On the holiday, he asked if he would go with him. Situ Wei was overjoyed. How could Han Qi allow his eldest son to invite the prince to a private banquet? He happily agreed.
The next day, Situ Wei wore a Western dress and a Western hat and went to Han's house first. When he met Han Fei, he saw that he was also wearing a Western dress and smiled at each other. After a while, Han Lu came out and simply wore it.
Wearing the sportswear of an Ivy League university, Han Fei treated Situ Wei with quite a bit of respect. Han Lu only regarded him as a classmate from the school next door. Suddenly, several princes and grandsons came. Situ Wei took a look, and there were two teenagers among them.
Wearing the uniform of Yenching University, he looked for someone to inquire about. It turned out that one of them was a younger brother of the imperial concubine's family, and was a freshman in the Journalism Department of Yenching University; the other was Zhang Wenlan, a junior in the Department of Architecture. After a while,
Brother, Gan Kexi is here too! Yin Zhuang pretends to be a guard and follows him. Gan Kexi is stunned when he sees Situ Wei. The two look at each other and pretend to be unfamiliar. Han Fei sees that all the guests have arrived, please
Let's all go out together.
A group of people walked on bricks and arrived at the Han family's village. A steward had already come out to welcome them. He said with a smile: "Uncle, everything is ready." When they arrived at the back, they saw that there was a neatly built cement road here, which was very scary from a distance.
I saw the car that Jia Cong gave to Mrs. Han parked in front of the big grass shed. Everyone ran over and jumped off their horses in front of the car to take a closer look. Many people had never seen such a thing before, and they were all surprised and asked Han Fei
What did it do?
Han Fei smiled and said: "I should ask the Fourth Highness about this. They are already running on the streets of Dajiala."
Situ Wei said: "There aren't many Dajiala. But the output is increasing very quickly." Nai looked at Zhang Wenlan with a smile, "This brother is wearing the uniform of Yan University. I wonder what the capital is like?"
Zhang Wenlan said: "The capital city is probably smaller than Djiala, so only the government and wealthy people can afford it. However, Baoding Prefecture is already building a car manufacturing plant, and Tianjin Dagang has also found oil fields."
Situ Wei said: "I remember the newspaper said that the Dagang Oilfield was calculated by Jia Cong on his fingers?"
Zhang Wenlan smiled and said: "God knows that. Whether he planned it or not, it is a good thing to find it anyway."
Situ Wei stroked the car glass and sighed: "All the cars in Dajiala are on the road. Our Jin country is very strange. We are really lagging behind many others."
Han Lu said: "What is this? You can just buy it with money. This is not what makes Jin State backward. Human trafficking is prohibited everywhere in the federation, and Jin State is still using slaves. This year, Qin State Prime Minister Zhu Tong has reformed the tax system, and Jin State has
Not only do the scholar-bureaucrats in the country not pay land tax, but their relatives even pay less business tax. The more developed the economy, the higher the tax on casinos. Our gambling tax in Jin State is only 10% and 20%. I have proposed to increase the gambling tax many times.
Classmate Situ Wei, why don’t you agree?"
Situ Wei spread his hands: "How would I know! I was in Dajiala like you three months ago, okay?"
Han Fei coughed twice: "The obstruction between the DPRK and China is severe."
Several people asked in unison: "Who is hindering?"
Han Fei said: "That's too much. We'll discuss this later. Okay, okay, let's drive and have fun."
Everyone was a little disappointed. Han Fei had opened the car door and asked, "Who gets in first?"
Someone laughed and said: "Of course His Royal Highness will go up first."
Situ Wei really liked cars, so he got in first without hesitation. As soon as he stepped on the accelerator, the car sped away, and everyone who had never seen it was amazed. Anyway, it was not his turn to get in first, and Gan Kexi stayed far away from the crowd, narrowing his eyes and watching.
As Situ Wei drove further and further away, he turned a corner and disappeared.
