DAY 194 **ACTIVITIES
Chapter 194 Romantic Job
On December 18, Hirofumi Ito hurriedly ended his trip in China, returned to Japan by sea boat, and reported to His Majesty the Emperor... The conditions proposed by China have already brought back the manuscript, and his face was presented to Emperor Meiji. The young emperor was so angry that his face turned pale. He kneaded the manuscript into a ball, threw it on the ground, and trampled it hard with his feet, but he didn't say a word, but his eyes were filled with tears!
Sanjo Shimei looked at the manuscript in her hand silently and said silently, "This is really... the text that will make you short of your life at a glance!"
Yutoto of Shan County waved his hand and whispered, "Don't say such things now, I'd better think about how to face the condemnation of His Majesty and the people?"
"Why, Navy Qing means to agree to such indecent requests from the Chinese?"
"Do you think there is a better way to save our country from disaster?" Yama Prefecture said quietly. "The navy has been completely destroyed. Although the gunboats imported from the United States have arrived at Yokosuka Port, they can only arrive safely under the intention of China to indulge them. Otherwise, what should I do? And even with these five ships, can I defend Tokyo from being attacked by the Chinese?"
The emperor suddenly stopped and looked at Yuto Yama Prefecture, "Naijunqing, what is your intention to speak like this?"
"Your Majesty, I think this matter may not be as bad as Your Majesty thought." A friend of Shan County said in a shocking voice, "Even if Chinese land is cedes, it may not be unacceptable."
"You must have meant something when you speak like this?"
"Yes!" Akitoshi of Shan County replied loudly, "What I mean is, as the people said, there are the generals of the army who only care about himself and do not care about His Majesty's decrees in his heart! Your Majesty, please think about it, in order to prevent His Majesty from going to Taiwan, His Majesty issued an order to suspend the march, but His Majesty was unmoved by the Dao of Saigo, which caused the scene of wars today. And there are many people who do not care about His Majesty's decrees in their hearts. I think that if you can take this opportunity to win the hearts of the people, even if a piece of land is ceded to China, you will not worry about not getting it back."
"Take it back? With our military strength, how can we get it back with the Chinese?"
"This matter is easy! China's politics is dark, officials **. Although Emperor Xianfeng has implemented the new policy for thirty years, it has improved a little, but it is far from our imperial country! I dare to protect it. If the area occupied by the Qing people is within twenty years, the area occupied by the Qing people will definitely be very resentful. During this period, if we can rest and recuperate, encourage people to send people to the east and contact the people, and if we start a business, we will pull the Chinese power out of the roots, which will be a big problem!"
Although Yutoshi Yama Prefecture's words were indeed far-reaching, but when it was discussed in detail, it might not be unreasonable. It had never been before that. The people's rebound must be very fierce. Even if the Qing people mastered powerful forces, as long as there was a plan of internal and external cooperation and the situation of the people attacking each other, the blueprint he drew might not be realized. "But, will the Hanshen land be cedeed to them as China asked?"
"Of course this is not possible." Mitsumi Sanjo heard the emperor's intention and immediately interrupted, "We always have to compete with China one by one." He paused for a moment, and suddenly said, "But what should the voice of the people do?"
"That's not simple?" said Yutoshi of Shan County as if nothing had happened, "It's all about the military headquarters!"
“Eh?”
"Isn't this supposed to be? At the beginning, Saigo came to the army by illegally following the violation of orders, which led to China's excuse to raise troops to invade our country; then it was even more unfavorable to block the country and the people, and if the contract was signed this time, they would be blamed. Since Your Majesty intends to purify the military system, it would be better to take one opportunity, wouldn't it be a killing one shot?"
"What else can I say to count at one stroke?" The Emperor spoke in a sarcastic tone. "Where is the other one?"
"Your Majesty, if you can pass this matter and win the hearts of the world, you can still wipe out the power of the powerful vassals in one fell swoop. Can you see Your Majesty's gains?"
The emperor was speechless and finally shook his head, "Even if he wanted to sign a contract, he could not follow the Chinese's wishes! Let's talk about it after your minister comes back!"
It’s no need to say that Yama Prefecture Aritoto and Sanjo Mimi looked at each other and bent down at the same time, "Yes. We understand!"
Outside Kobe Castle, all the tents were covered by white snow, and the same was covered, as well as the traces of the battlefield that had been tragic in the past two months. Bao Chao, Wang Yu, Cai Gengyang and several others took their own personal guards to ride horses and walk slowly, "······Military, I heard that the Japanese have returned to China, why hasn't they moved yet?"
"We don't have to do these things," Wang Yu said, "How the Japanese do it is their business. For us, they will fight if they don't surrender! They will fight until they surrender."
Bao Chao smiled and nodded, "Xiao Wang was right." He said, "Zhao Jianxinsheng is afraid that he can't hold on for a few days. If he wants to attack him, he will attack him in one go, no matter what negotiations he has or not?"
Wang Yu smiled and changed the subject, "Military Gate, where are you taking us this time?"
"The place I take you there is naturally the best." Bao Chao smiled mysteriously, but he couldn't bear it. Without waiting for the two people to ask questions, he took the initiative to give a big case, "Do you know what happened to the fifth master who was ordered to visit Japan?"
"This is a little bit of news."
"Kobe is the first stop. I heard that there is a place called Kazutei outside Kobe Castle. What is it? I don't know what it means."
"I don't understand this yet? As long as you go in, you will be cooked!"
Bao Chao and Wang Yu laughed loudly, and even the interpreter and personal army who were beside him couldn't help but smile. "But I heard that there are three daughters in this store, and they are the most charming. Let's go and visit today."
Cai Gengyang, like Bao Chao, is the most lustful. He had enjoyed many Japanese women who were caught by subordinates in Sanyuan City. This time, he felt even more itchy when he heard such words, "Is it really that beautiful? You have to have a good experience."
"Why isn't it? I heard that it's amazing!"
"What are you waiting for? Military Sect, let's hurry up and enjoy it!"
"You lustful boy!" Bao Chao cursed and waved the whip, and slapped the horse's butt. Herod horse screamed, and his iron hooves rolled up the snow and ran towards the mountain quickly.
After going to Dongshan, he bypassed the stone wall extending to the right. The mountain road was covered with white weeds covered with snow, and there were no signs. Bao Chao took the horse and grew on the horse's back and looked around. "It seems that there is no one here?"
"It must be because of the war, the business was light and the whole family closed their doors."
"No matter who he is, brothers..." Bao Chao waved his hand, "find it for me!"
Nearly a hundred soldiers moved when they heard the order and searched around the top of the mountain. After a while, they heard the voice, "Military Gate, found it!"
A few people rushed over and it turned out to be a misty place. There was a plaque on the upper edge of the porch, with the words "Yuanting," which were written in Chinese. It would be fine if Bao Chao could not read, but Wang Yu recognized it, "The military gate is here."
"Why is there no one?"
"Go in and have a look." Wang Yu jumped off his horse and stepped inside directly. A thick cotton curtain was hung in front of the door. The curtain was lifted inside. It was quiet. "Hey!" He shouted, "Does anyone?"
No one answered at all. Wang Yu walked through the rooms and confirmed that no one was there. Then he turned around and walked out in disappointment. But to his surprise, even Bao Chao and others disappeared. "Where is the military gate?" He asked the soldiers standing guard in front of the gate.
"Just just now, brothers found a house on the other side of the mountain, and the military gate and Lord Cai took people there."
Wang Yu had no choice but to get on his horse and follow the direction he pointed. Before he could get closer, he heard Cai Gengyang laughing wildly, "Haha! It's really good! Military gate, look?" So he knew that these two people must have discovered something.
When he rode his horse in front of him, more than thirty men and women in Japanese clothes were taken to the yard by the soldiers. Bao Chao and Cai Gengyang stood in front of them. The man ignored him and just looked down at the woman's appearance. "Qing'an, ask them who is... the Lord of Yuanting?"
Qing'an asked a few questions in Japanese, and a woman in the lead took a step forward timidly, "Sir, she said she is."
"What's her name?"
"She begs for Huazi."
Bao Chao nodded. He had heard someone say this name, stepped forward, picked up her chin with his hand, and looked at it carefully. Hanako was so scared that he didn't dare to move. He raised his face passively, blinking his beautiful eyelashes, his eyes filled with tears, "Is Hanako? Who is her husband?"
Qing'an asked, and a man walked out and bowed respectfully. "Looking at your appearance, you don't look like a guy who can enjoy such a beautiful beauty. Ask him, how about giving his wife to me?"
Even if they are on the same side, Qing'an is speechless. Isn't this a little shameless? To occupy someone's wife, he still has to ask his husband for his opinion? "Military?"
Bao Chao smiled proudly, ignored Qing'an and did not translate his words. He stretched out his big hand, grabbed Hanako's waist, and kissed her round and smooth ear, "Ask them, why don't you do business? Tell them that I and my brothers are hungry and want to have a meal."
After listening to Qing'an's humiliation, Hanako muttered a few words, "Sir, they said that the two countries are in war, the materials are scarce, and the men in the store are recruited by the country, and even the chefs are resigned. Therefore, they have to close their business and rely on a little bit of ancestral property to make a living."
Bao Chao nodded, "I understand." He suddenly let go of Huazi and pushed her out, "Qing'an, you know Japanese, ask her what materials you need and how many people you need to make this Yuanting reopen. Xiao Cai, write it down one by one and buy it for them!"
"Sir, why is this?"
"I see the scenery of Yuanting is fine. I will live here in the future! I will make it lively. In the future, the various camps will be in charge of food, so I will be here!"
This was a change that everyone did not expect. Qing'an thought carefully and said, it was really good! The battle outside the city had stopped, but Bao Chao and others still had to rest overnight in the tents built in the dense forest of Xueye. How could they compare to the place of Yuanting, where the houses are as dense as those of the buildings and beautiful buildings? He agreed and started to communicate with Hanako in Japanese.
Hanako was not happy but sad, shocked and afraid. This Chinese man was clearly uneasy and wanted to humiliate himself, but also wanted to occupy the ancestral property left by his grandmother. She shook her head vigorously, causing the sparse fallen bun on her head to scatter, and the dark clouds on her head drifted off her shoulders, dancing back and forth with the movements. Bao Chao had never seen a woman with her hair swaying like a dancer in the dark night, becoming more and more moved.
No one present could understand Japanese, but it didn't matter. Just looking at her demeanor, you know that she must be refusing. He was too lazy to talk nonsense with these people, raised his hand and slapped Hanako's husband in the face! "I'll ask you, do you agree?"
"Sir, it's useless for you to hit him. Yuanting has always been the head of the woman."
"Damn it! No wonder Japan is determined by women in everything without fighting. How can it be better? Brothers, take all these men away!"
Hanako cried and rushed to her husband, hugged his waist, buried his head in her arms, and shouted. But in the end, it was impossible to resist everyone's power, separated her and her husband and dragged the man who was waiting for death. Bao Chao was not ashamed and did not even dare to resist. Is he considered a man? He wanted to give him a good look, but he did not resist at all, and even if he fought, he had no taste at all.
"Qing'an, tell her not to cry anymore. If you cry again, I will kill everyone!"
After this, Huazi was frightened, she cried and raised her pretty face like a rainy pear blossom, looked at Bao Chao, and said a few words, "What did she say?"
"She said,..." Qing'an looked like he wanted to speak but stopped.
"I'll ask you what she said?"
"She said that if she asks the adults to kill her, she will never obey."
Bao Chaole was very happy, "That's interesting! Ge I like this!" After saying that, he bent down, picked Huazi hard, and smiled at Cai Gengyang and Wang Yu who had just arrived, "You two are so lucky, you two, choose one by yourself; I'll enjoy it first." Huazi, who held her hands and feet, walked into the house all the way.
When he entered the room, he kicked away the bedroom where he didn't know who lived, threw Hanako on the tatami, and took off his clothes with a smile. Regardless of the woman's struggle, he raised his hand and slapped her in the face, and his delicate and white face was gentle and white. "Ah!" Hanako hit him, and then he remembered the truth that people were the slaughter and the fish meat. He turned his head and let him do it with tears.
After a happy moment, several times, Bao Chao lay on the tatami with his limbs wide open, and the messy Hana was curled up beside him. Bao Chao sighed with satisfaction, forced Hana to pull Hana into his arms again, rubbing his hands up and down, "Our old Bao is so lucky! Hehe! It's really a Japanese beauty that even Chinese people know, hehe, hehe!"
Hanako couldn't understand what he said, but she knew there was nothing good about it. Her body was stiff and she ignored him. "Yes, don't worry, there is nothing we said to Lao Bao. From tomorrow... no, from today, you will send people down the mountain to buy whatever you should do, and find who you should find. Open the Kite Pavilion as soon as possible so that we can also taste the taste of Japanese food. Hum?"
After saying that, he got up and kissed her face soaked with tears. Guan Zi dressed himself and went out of the door. Cai Gengyang walked out of another room in disheveled clothes, "Where is Xiao Wang?"
"This kid!" Cai Gengyang laughed and scolded, "Xiao Wang? Xiao Wang?"
"I'm here." Wang Yu's voice came from the door, which seemed to end earlier than them. "Look at your young age, why are you so innocent?" Bao Chao teased casually. "Isn't it as good as Lao Cai and me?"
Wang Yu smiled and didn't explain much, "Military Gate, let's go back?"
"Go back!" Bao Chao turned over the horse and pointed at Qing'an with a whip. "Lao Qing, don't go back. There are still many things here, and it depends on you."
"ah?"
"Are you still unhappy? You are the only one who can tell the inside and outside of the Yuanting Pavilion. You can do whatever you want. Isn't thank me?" Bao Chao laughed and rode his horse all the way.
