Chapter 17 The Birth of the Musketeer

()

The moonlight is seductive.

The racing hall on Huangpu Beach is actually quite simple. The racing road is surrounded by green grass, and there is no cover around it. There is only a simple stand on the east side.

Walking on the mud and stone road next to the racing hall, it is because foreigners often rushed to the mud and stone road beside the racetrack because of their narrow venue. Therefore, this road is also called "road", and domestic roads are called roads, which are said to be from this.

You can see the deep sea not far away, with waves rising and falling moonlight hazy, with the artistic conception of "the bright moon rises on the sea, and the ends of the world share this time."

Ye Zhao strides forward with full spirit. Beside him, Su Hongniang wore a black tuxedo and shiny black leather shoes. The classical beauty dressed up like a handsome young man. But her every frown and smile was charming and stunning, which made people think a lot.

The gate was not out of the second door, and Su Hongniang had been very depressed in the mansion. Xiao Huatou suddenly came to ask her to leave the mansion to "do business". She naturally agreed and happily changed into men's clothes, but it made all the words Ye Zhao had originally thought useless.

Looking at Su Hongniang beside her, Ye Zhao smiled and said, "It's so beautiful to wear men's clothes. I think you can dress up in men's clothes in the future. It's convenient to get in and out. Even if you go back to western Guangdong, you will have a military uniform. It's a female general! Besides, your subordinates must have a unified uniform that can gather people's hearts. The loose peasant army has no future."

"It's all written in your heavenly book!" Su Hongniang snatched him apart, wearing a men's clothing, and it seemed that it was much more natural to walk next to this little slip-on.

"Sarcastic to me, right? Let's go back and let you go!" Ye Zhao was about to glar at her, but the more he said, the less confident he became, and the more he spoke, the less he spoke.

Su Hongniang was helpless and a little numb to Ye Zhao's indifference. After knowing that Xiao Shutou was not a Tartar, she didn't know why these little problems were so she lost her previous disgust.

What's more, Su Hongniang suddenly stared at Ye Zhao and asked, "Hey, what have you said to my brother?"

As the dinner was during the holiday, Boss Su called her over and said earnestly that the elder brother was like a father. Just when Su Hongniang was inexplicably surprised, Boss Su said that he had already made the decision to officially promise her to the little slut, and he had accepted the betrothal gifts. Although it was a side room, it was considered a formal marriage between a matchmaker. No matter what, you are a widow, and Mr. Ye is a very capable person, so you won’t be wronged by being a side room. And the wedding date is all given, just ten days later.

Su Hongniang was so angry that she almost turned against her brother on the spot. She was about to settle the score with Ye Zhao, but he mentioned this first.

Ye Zhao had a solution and smiled and said, "It's like what I said, a couple with a name must have a ceremony. Okay, the ceremony is OK, but there must be a statement, that is, after ten days, you will have a status. Don't worry, our relationship will definitely remain the same as it is now. But if you say that it's not so over-the-top, how can you calculate the repayment of your kindness? If you say it first, you will never regret it, right? I've found a matchmaker, and I'll be old."

Su Hongniang snorted coldly: "I wanted to kill you at that time."

Ye Zhao felt a little nervous, but said indifferently: "Whatever you want, I will stretch my neck to kill you!"

Su Hongniang glanced at him and didn't say anything again.

The two fell silent and walked slowly along the muddy road by the sea.

The night was getting darker, and there were no pedestrians on the road. There were a few people on the beach in the distance, and I didn’t know what they were doing.

"Actually, I am the prince of the Zheng Prince's Mansion, but you just need to remember that my name is Ye Zhao." After walking a few steps, Ye Zhao finally revealed his identity. After all, she would know one day sooner or later, so it would be better to tell it yourself.

Although Su Hongniang had long guessed that Ye Zhao was a Manchu nobleman, after hearing his own admission, for some reason, he suddenly felt a little disappointed. It turned out that he was a Tartar after all.

Suddenly Ye Zhao smiled: "Although I am a Tartar, I am a good Tartar, and, I have never regarded myself as a Manchu." It seemed as if I knew what Su Hongniang was thinking now.

Good Tartar? Su Hongniang was ridiculous and irritated. I really don’t know what to say about this guy.

Ye Zhao sighed again and said, "In life, there are always many helplessness..." Just as he was about to continue talking, Su Hongniang pulled her sleeves and thrust her mouth. She looked in the direction of her thrust, but she saw six or seven figures coming from the beach. They gradually approached, and only then did she see that it was Tuan Yong's dress, and it was supposed to be Tuan Jianyizhi who besieged Shanghai County.

"Tsk tsk, this rabbit husband is so pretty!" The fat man Tuanyong, who was walking in the front, stared at Su Hongniang, with a little lust in his eyes.

However, the other Tuan Yongs stared at Ye Zhao's hand. The green jade rings were obviously not ordinary.

"Bold, I am the imperial envoy of the court. Who is your rule? Make way quickly. Otherwise, you will be sent to the Jierhang A-chan for punishment!" Ye Zhao knew that the Qing army was corrupt, so there was no need to mention the tuan Yong. Like some Taiping Army with corrupt military discipline, they were used to burning, killing, and looting, so he came up and reported his identity.

"What the hell is the imperial envoy? Why haven't I heard that the imperial envoy came? Who are you scaring grandpa?" The fat man walked in front with a smile, while the other people surrounded him in fan.

Even if he hadn't experienced such a scene, Ye Zhao knew it was not good, and he couldn't help but regret not bringing the Goshha Ring Guard. But then again, this is because the public security in the concession is still good; secondly, he brought a lot of words to Goshha but it was difficult to talk to Su Hongniang. Who would have thought of meeting a few desperate people like this unlucky?

The village Yong, who was walking at the end, suddenly raised his bird gun. With a "bang", Ye Zhao felt that his body was being pushed away. It was Su Hongniang beside him who pushed him away. He was like this, and his arms were still numb. When he turned around, he thought he had been swept away by a projectile.

In the flash of lightning, Ye Zhao was really dazzled at this moment. He saw Su Hongniang reaching the fat man's hometown in one step. He raised his wrist and hit the fat man's throat. The fat man fell to the ground with a muffled groan. The steel knife in his hand had already landed on Su Hongniang's hands. Then the knife flashed, and blood gushed in the throat of several townsmen, falling out. The two townsmen who were far away saw that the situation was not good, ran away.

Ye Zhao said without hesitation: "Don't leave a living!"

Su Hongniang was slightly stunned, then raised her hand and had an extra revolver. Ye Zhao gave her, but she didn't want her to carry it with her.

"Bang bang bang" several gunshots, two village warriors running out fell to the ground, and Su Hongniang chased after them again, obviously to check whether they were dead.

"Go away!" Ye Zhao stood up, regardless of the blood on his arms, he just wanted to leave here quickly. If foreigners saw him killing the local brave team, what kind of morality would it be? Besides, Ye Zhao knew that there was great potential for this matter in just a short time.

Su Hongniang didn't know Ye Zhao's mind, so she hesitated for a moment and cut a cloth from Xiang Yong's corpse clothes with a steel knife. She quickly caught up with Ye Zhao and helped Ye Zhao tamper the wound.

At the side door, Goshha, next to the gate, hurriedly bowed, but did not notice that the imperial envoy was injured.

Back in the second floor bedroom, sitting on a round stool with five-legged jade inlay, Su Hongniang quickly brought the knife wound medicine to help Ye Zhao treat the wound. Seeing Ye Zhao grinning, Su Hongniang couldn't help but feel funny.

"Don't tell anyone about what happened today!" Ye Zhao said as soon as he finished speaking, but Su Hongniang touched the wound when she tied the cloth belt tightly.

"Can't you tell me about the elder brother?" Su Hongniang carefully slowly lowered Ye Zhao's rolled up sleeves, for fear that the young master would grin and scream in pain again, and asked in confusion.

"If you can, don't say it, don't say it." Ye Zhao pondered, "If many people know it, there is a little more danger of leaking." Then he was stunned. At this moment, he felt that Su Hongniang seemed to be in the same heart as her? Instead, she became an outsider with her own brother.

When he saw Su Hongniang nodded, he was obviously not at all, and Ye Zhao felt even more happy.

"Is this a camera?" Su Hongniang came to Ye Zhao's bedroom for the first time for the first time, but found a strange small wooden box with three shelves beside the mirror platform painted with red painted gold.

Ye Zhao was startled and thought that the young lady had suddenly traveled over. Then she remembered the introduction of current Western technology in her book. It seemed that she had read a lot during this period.

"Yes, camera, let's take a wedding photo back." Ye Zhao smiled. He borrowed the camera from lawyer Hall, but he wanted to take a few photos as a souvenir.

Unable to hear what he said, Su Hongniang turned around and glanced at Ye Zhao and said, "I was frightened today. Let's rest early, I'll leave."

Ye Zhao smiled and said, "Okay, I'm afraid, so I'll call you."

Su Hongniang nodded. Although she was dressed in men's clothes and wearing leather shoes, she couldn't help but be graceful. Under the tuxedo, she seemed to be able to feel her gentle waist swing. This amazing style of classical beauty and modern collision almost made Ye Zhao unable to pull out his eyes. Until the beauty's back disappeared, he shook his head helplessly, thinking that he had been so unreliable.

Thinking about what happened tonight, I think it would be counted as a foreigner, which would further intensify the conflict between the Qing army and the foreigners in the concession.

And how can I make a profit from it?

Thinking of it in a daze, a strong fragrance suddenly drifted into his nose. When he turned around, Su Hongniang came in again. She brought a soup plate with a flower-shaped carved lacquer filled with golden cloud dragons to celebrate her longevity. In the white jade-like official kiln porcelain-burning bowl, there was a strong aroma of crucian carp soup, milky white soup base, and a few green leaves floating on the fish, which made people's index fingers move.

"Drink it. When you see the blood, crucian carp soup is the most nourishing. Is it better to use the arm?" Su Hongniang placed the soup plate on the sandalwood table beside Ye Zhao.

"Ah, it's okay, I'm not a left-handed." Ye Zhao was injured by his left hand, which did not affect his food. He picked up the white jade spoon and hurriedly scooped it into his mouth. Then he let out a whistle, and was so scalded that he sucked the air conditioner.

Su Hongniang looked at him helplessly with watery eyes and said, "I also said that she is the prince, why don't she be at all stable? She looks like a little monkey."

It was not the first time Ye Zhao was embarrassed in front of Su Hongniang, but he also had a strong face and didn't care at all. He smiled and said, "A yellow belt, it must be that there is no one in the right way. If you help a playboy like this, your wife's great anti-Qing cause will definitely succeed!"

Su Hongniang glared at him, "Look, can't you speak well?"

Ye Zhao sighed helplessly, "Okay, then I won't call you wife anymore."

Su Hongniang nodded in approval: "This is the best."

"Scream again in ten days!" Ye Zhao's words made Su Hongniang angry, and she stretched out her snow-white and slippery little hand and gave him a thrill.

Ye Zhao was stunned, and Su Hongniang was also stunned. This action seemed too intimate.

Ye Zhao then sighed quietly, "It seems that he will punish you to go back to his parents' home to learn the three obediences and four virtues!"

Su Hongniang chuckled and said, "Can't I discipline my brother?"

Ye Zhao nodded and said, "Okay, let me spare you today, and I'm not allowed to commit another crime in the future."

During the answer, it seemed that Su Hongniang agreed that she was his wife and said that "disciplined her younger brother" was just trying to beat her husband.

Su Hongniang knew that she would suffer a few words to this young man, but she rarely had friends who could chat so easily. The congregations in the world respected her and did not dare to show any disrespect when they saw her, let alone talked with her.

The guy who hated him was itchy, he didn't say a serious word and was frivolous, but he seemed to be very relaxed with him, as if he had changed his own person, and he was no longer a beautiful Luoshasha who was dominating the western Guangdong army, but an ordinary woman who loved and felt sorry for someone.

This guy seems to be really not afraid of himself.

"Wife, I'll feed you a bite?" Sure enough, seeing his now hippie scoundrel, how could he take his name into consideration?

"If you don't drink, my wife, the place we go to today is called a racetrack, which is used for horse racing. I heard that the French Consul has a good horse. When I look for an opportunity, I will get you the horses in this world. Only my wife is worthy of riding. It is called "scoundrelative to heavenly things for them."
