Chapter 252 Solved
The long sound of the cruise ship "Sherfield" slowly drove into the port of Port of Pourmouth. Yang Du picked up the small suitcase he carried with him and stepped on the dock with the flow of people ashore. After separating from the people at the dock, Yang Du went straight to the railway station and bought a train ticket to London.
In the past few days on the cruise ship, Yang Du has a lot of thoughts. First, he saw in the newspaper in Port Lyon, France, that the ruling axe decided to send a delegation to Europe and the United States to inspect. In addition to Japan, the United States, the United Kingdom, Germany, France and Italy, the delegation will also visit more than 20 countries, including South American countries. Country.
"The way to seek knowledge in the world is not only to obtain experience from a strong country, but also to obtain its weakness from a weak country, thinking that it is the front car!"
The words of the ruling government's expectations for the investigation team are not heavy, which makes Yang Du have to feel a pity. If he was in Nanjing, how could he be wrong with the investigation team? Even outsiders know that the significance of the inspection in China is no less than that of the rock warehouse investigation group when he was in the world.
At this time, the investigation is different from the past. It is studying the social system and law in order to fundamentally change the country, and more than 2,600 young students with the group are more eye-catching in the world. All of them are called the reappearance of "young children studying abroad". Young international students will follow the group to study in middle schools in various countries. For this huge examination In the establishment of the inspection group, the ruling axe is negotiating with German businessmen to purchase a large cruise ship.
"They have their responsibilities, and I have my mission!"
As the train gets closer and closer to London, Yang Du can clearly feel that his heart is getting more and more nervous.
Will your wife accept my suggestion?
Thinking about the upcoming proposal to his wife, Yang Du was inevitably a little uneasy. If this matter is successful, the government and even the country will be ungrate to himself. He may even be favored by himself. In the expectation of the people, he will be in the position of prime minister of the cabinet.
Just because of this thought, Yang Du felt that his palm was a little hot and sweat came out. But he thought that if he was defeated... Yang Du's mood was tight again. This is a big gamble. If he wins, he will win the name of the world. If he loses, he can... Thinking about this, Yang Du, who is a little upset, is casual. He opened the newspaper he bought at the railway station and had never read. For more than a month on the ship, he had been studying English hard to communicate with his wife. At the same time, he also prepared early in the future. English is useful regardless of success or failure.
"Mikheil? Grand Duke Alexandrovich is obsessed with the mysterious woman!"
Looking at the front page of the newspaper, Yang Du had to admire the opening up of Europeans. The front page of the newspaper did not mention political, economic or military news. Instead, he was involved in something here. The Russian Grand Duke, who ordered ordnance in France, met a mysterious woman at the dance. He was infatuated with the woman's appearance, and even ignored the value of the prince. Li's pseudonym published in the newspaper's obsession with finding people.
Yang Du was not interested in this kind of erotic thing. He looked through the newspaper hastily. After the newspaper did not find the news he was interested in, Yang Du put down the newspaper and looked at the countryside outside the car. The scenery of the British countryside was beautiful, far from comparable to that in China. After a while, Yang Du was intoxicated.
"This is 100,000 francs!"
While teasing her daughter, Ji Liqiao smiled and said to Ruisha, who was standing aside. Her face was full of happiness. A few days ago, she received a telegram from her husband from Nanjing. The content of the telegram was very simple.
"Honey, it's time to go home! I miss your father-in-law!"
It's just a simple telegram, but it means the lovesickness between the two people. However, Ji Li did not leave immediately, but was waiting for the officers sent by the country to pick up the ship. She had already made a decision to return to China with the warship. This was a gift she gave to the country. Naturally, she had to give it to the country in person.
"As long as a letter, you can get 100,000 francs, Resa. If I had known this, I would have taken you to Paris to the dance earlier. It would be 100,000 francs!"
"Madam!"
At this time, Resha was blushed by her wife. She didn't expect that when she attended the dance with her wife in Paris, she accepted the invitation of other men to enter the dance with her wife's permission. She was very happy that day. There were many people who invited her to dance, but she could still remember the young Mikhail? Grand Duke Aledrovic, but after that chance encounter, she knew that the two would never meet again, and she didn't expect that he would publish a revelation in the newspaper to find herself.
"Risa, if you want, I can help you contact him!"
Ji's face was still full of happy smiles, but this smile was full of concern for Risa. She thought that her father-in-law might love Risa, but in the end it turned out that it was just her wishful thinking.
"Madam, he is a nobleman, isn't he? And I'm just a servant!"
Risa shook her head. Although Mikhail was very handsome, he was a prince of Russia, and he was just a servant.
"The Russian Empire has a law of intermarriage, and ordinary people can marry nobles!"
"Madam, it's just a chance encounter!"
Risa still shakes her head. Hasn't her mother also met a Frenchman by chance? But what did you get in the end? It's a ruthless abandonment. If Mr. Fuli hadn't taken in his mother, who would have happened to his mother and daughter? His Royal Highness was just a momentary curiosity about himself.
"Love often begins with a chance encounter!"
The scene of her first meeting with her father-in-law appeared in front of Ji Li's eyes. Isn't it also a romantic encounter? If it hadn't been for that chance encounter, would there be now?
"Madam, Miss's eyes are as beautiful as you, as jewels!"
Risa quickly opened the topic with the young lady in the cradle.
"I prefer her eyes to be black!"
Ji Li's tone was a little helpless. The Orientals attach great importance to blood. Even if they use two warships to trust the Chinese people, can they accept that there is foreign blood in the body of the future crown prince?
Although this matter has never been mentioned in her husband's letter, in the past period of time, she has met some Chinese students in Europe. Although those students accept themselves, they always talk with some worries and worries that their identity will become the after-dinner words of those rural fools.
In her heart, she is already Chinese, but her skin color and appearance, thinking about this, she can't help but feel powerless.
"If it really affects your father-in-law..."
When the face that was originally full of happy smiles surged in her heart, the smile dissipated. There was only a kind of helplessness from the heart. She knew her choice, love a person wholeheartedly, and love everything he loved.
When Ji Li's heart surged and was at a loss, a maid came to her.
"Madam, there is a Mr. Yang outside!"
Mr. Yang?
I took the business card from the maid's hand.
"The ruling axe of the Ministry of Justice Yang Du"
There is no title, but only the name of Yang Du of the Ministry of Justice. This person's visit made Ji Li curious. This is the first official to visit her, to be precise, an official from China. The ruling axe appointed some officials in Europe, but as far as she knows, it seems that she did not appoint a judicial officer. Member, he must have come to London from home.
Is it... "Risa, you are here with the young lady. I'll go to the living room to meet Mr. Yang!"
Yang Du, standing in the living room, looked at the living room of Sterling Manor. Although his wife sold the manor, it was Miss Catherine in Shanghai who bought the manor, who was also the wife's sister. Therefore, although the wife sold the manor, she did not move out of here.
While thinking about it, a Western woman walked into the living room, with bright eyes and teeth, a foggy and a Chinese-style Confucian skirt, which revealed the elegance of this beautiful woman. When she entered the living room, Yang Du couldn't help admiring in his heart that the elegance shown by his wife alone was far from that of an ordinary woman. Yang Du subconsciously compared her with the concubines who reported Guangxu, which was simply the difference between a fairy and a village woman.
"Madam!"
Yang Du made a 90-degree deep bow in front of his wife.
"Mr. Yang, you're welcome! Please sit down!"
When she was calmly saluted, Ji Li sat on the sofa and asked Yang Du to sit down.
"Mr. Yang is from Nanjing to London, or..."
"Madam, Yang Du came to England from Nanjing and took the same boat with the navy delegation!"
"Here comes the navy delegation!"
"Yes, madam, but according to the schedule, General Cheng and his party will send the students to the Naval Academy before visiting his wife. General Cheng specially asked me to apologize to his wife. I hope you can forgive me!"
Ji Li nodded and didn't say anything. This is not a disrespectful performance.
"So why did Mr. Yang come to London?"
"Madam, when Yang Duzhi comes to London, he will only visit his wife and do his best!"
"Oh!"
One sentence made Ji Li curious about the thin person in front of her. She came to London from Nanjing from thousands of miles just to see herself?
Is it to show loyalty?
In this regard, Ji Li is no longer strange, just like those envoys of the Qing Dynasty abroad. They first visited themselves in London in order to show their loyalty to Nanjing. And did the person in front of him come to Britain from China just to show his loyalty?
Yang Du looked at his wife quietly. She held the teacup in her hand and was thinking about it, and she knew that the lady might be thinking about her intention in her heart.
"Madam, Yang Du's trip is only to fulfill the loyalty of the ministers and relieve the difficulties of the wife and the ruler!"
After saying that, Yang Du, who was full of confidence, looked at his wife again. The lady just gently lowered her head and tasted the tea in the cup at the same time.
"What's wrong with me and the two in power? I need to bother you, sir!"
Although there was no wave, Ji Li looked at the person in front of her. She vaguely guessed his intention, the Ministry of Justice... Did he want to stop himself with the law? Does he mean to come here, or... No, his husband will never do that! She believes in her father-in-law.
No matter what the person in front of you wants to say, it must be his own decision, it must be like this!
"The identity of a wife is the dilemma between the ruler and the wife!"
