838 , catching a big fish
Xide sat down opposite Chen Yuanyuan and showed off a gentlemanly appearance. In fact, Xide's cultivation is pretty good. He was born in a noble family and had a rich knowledge. Because he was exiled by the king and had a "river of the world" for a while, he carried the free and unrestrained style that the nobles lacked. In general, he felt like a bard wearing armor, full of romanticism. He was obviously very confident in his appearance and temperament, and was very sure to take down the beauty Chen Yuanyuan.
However, he was too confident. I remember that Chen Yuanyuan had seen countless scholars, bureaucrats and prodigals on the Qinhuai River. People with temperament and appearance like Xide had seen double digits. These people wanted to win Chen Yuanyuan's favor without exception, but they all ended in failure because... Chen Yuanyuan didn't like handsome people. She liked men with treasures. At that time, Yi Yun deceived Chen Yuanyuan with a "big transfer treasure" worth hundreds of millions of silver that did not exist at all.
If Xide took out a European magic weapon worth 100 million or 200 million silver at this time, he might be able to win Chen Yuanyuan's favor, but it would be useless to just be handsome.
Xide was talking there, like Chen Yuanyuan introducing his great achievements when he was wandering in Europe before. Chen Yuanyuan listened quietly with a polite smile on his face, and he showed an interesting expression from time to time. He asked him to continue saying that these are methods of the Qinhuai River, and every guest should always feel a professional skill that he is valued. In fact, Chen Yuanyuan has been inquiring about Xide's position in the army indirectly. After Chen Yuanyuan's clever inquiry, he finally figured out that Xide's position in the army is not too high. He is the head of the Spanish army of the Eight-Nation Alliance, but because the main force in the Eight-Nation Alliance is not Spain, he does not have much say in the army.
(Note: The eight-nation coalition forces distributed 12,000 in the UK, 13,000 in Russia, 3,500 in France, 1,000 in Germany, 500 in Austro-Hungarian Empire, 1,000 in Portugal, 1,000 in Spain, and 8 in Italy.)
After a while, Xide blew enough, but saw a young man walking over next to him. He was wearing a cloth robe and holding a book in his hand. It looked very much like a magician. You should know that magicians like to wear magic robes and hold magic books in his hand. Yi Yun felt cold in his heart. He played a lot of games, so he was very yearning and vigilant about the profession of magicians.
I only heard the man who was suspected to be a magician introduced himself: "Beautiful lady, can I write a poem for you? I am an Italian named Alicair Dante."
"From Italy?" Chen Yuanyuan smiled and said, "What an amazing country."
Dante smiled: "Yes, Italy is a hero of the Renaissance."
As soon as he finished speaking, Xide next to him suddenly snorted coldly: "The shameless poet who brought eight men to join the Eight-Nation Alliance actually had the courage to say that his country was amazing."
Dante was not ashamed. He smiled and said, "We Italians are not here to fight wars, but to write poetry, see the scenery, and see the beautiful sea. Appreciate the mystery of Eastern countries and promote our pasta to Eastern countries... So eight people are enough..." Taotao, wah, this person talked for half an hour.
Chen Yuanyuan thought to himself: This person is a waste. He has no use to help me enter the church, so he doesn't have to pay attention to him.
Although she thought so, she still smiled at Dante and asked him to sit down.
As soon as Dante came, Xide was a little unhappy. He was so happy to be fucked by girls here. Dante, the guy who wrote poetry, came to make fun of him? He kept glaring at Dante with his eyes, but the Yidaili people refused to leave. He stayed here and kept showing kindness to Chen Yuanyuan: "Beautiful lady, I will write poetry for you now..."
Chen Yuanyuan thought to himself: European poetry is actually to bring up every line of an ordinary narrative paragraph. This is also considered a poem? Don’t show such a destructive poem in front of our cute country, right?
She smiled and said, "I dare not bother Mr. Dante."
At this time, the men next to him saw that Xide and Dante had already come on, so they dared not pretend to be gentlemen. If they are responsible for getting to know a lady, how can they be left behind? If the two kids Xide and Dante deceived the beauty away, wouldn't it be all over? A group of young men came over and filled Chen Yuanyuan's table with full force, and everyone rushed to introduce themselves. However, their identities were not very high, either big businessmen or nobles without real power, which was far inferior to Xidelai. For Chen Yuanyuan's infiltration, these people would not have any practical help except to make a fuss.
Chen Yuanyuan couldn't help but sigh: "Big fish, big fish, why haven't you come yet?"
"Miss, do you want to eat fish? It's not easy?" a big businessman shouted: "Cook, get a fish."
Just when Chen Yuanyuan felt that there might be no gains tonight and was about to come back tomorrow, a young man in black armor suddenly walked to the table. The man smiled at Xide, obviously there was something wrong with Xide. Then he smiled at Chen Yuanyuan and said, "This beautiful lady, can I give you a simple self-introduction?"
Yi Yun and Luna laughed secretly beside each other: This man is interesting. Others all walk to the table and start introducing themselves. But this person first asked if he could be introduced. It seems that in the "gentleman" class, this person has learned better and has the style of a gentleman, sword and Yue Buqun.
Chen Yuanyuan nodded to the man in black armor.
The man introduced himself: "I am the British prince, named Edward. Since I am a Black Knight, people call me Edward the Black Knight."
After hearing his introduction, Yi Yun, Luna and Chen Yuanyuan were secretly happy: Good things, a big fish finally came. The Eight-Nation Alliance has the largest number of British and Russian troops, and the UK is responsible for almost all naval ships. It is the most important country. If the British prince is hooked, our activities in Macau will be much more convenient.
Chen Yuanyuan did not immediately show that she was different from Edward. She smiled slightly and said generously: "It turns out to be a prince, it's so rude." Although she was rude, she did not stand up because her fake identity was the daughter of the leader of the Donglin Party. With the vast territory and a large population of the country, the daughter of a leader of the Donglin Party is comparable to that of a prince in Europe.
Edward didn't know Chen Yuanyuan's identity yet, but seeing her jewel-like appearance, she was dressed as much as the queen of the European royal family. In the whole of Europe, only the diamond crown of the Italian queen could be compared with the treasures on her, so she sat down with a smile and happened to sit next to the Spanish free knight Sid.
Sid immediately glared at Edward. It turned out that the British fleet defeated the Spanish Invincible Fleet several years ago. At this time, the relationship between the two countries was still very bad. Although they joined forces to deal with the Da Mengguo, they were not harmonious.
Both big and small fish were fish, and Chen Yuanyuan didn't want them to quarrel here to destroy their plans, so she whispered a few times and turned the attention of the two of them to him, so she didn't start a fight.
The men in the field were fascinated by Chen Yuanyuan, and the topic naturally began to revolve around Chen Yuanyuan's identity, and the purpose of her coming here. Chen Yuanyuan smiled and told the story she told to the little businessmen again. She claimed that she was Qian Qianyi's daughter wanted to rescue her father, marry the person who helped her, and give all her property to her husband.
After taking out this set of words, the men on the table naturally changed their faces. Several merchants who knew they were not strong enough first used a urinary escape, and then several noble men without real power borrowed a urinary escape. In the end, the only ones left at the table were the Spanish Free Knight Cide, the Italian poet Dante, and the British prince Black Knight Edward.
Xide said: "It turns out that the lady has such a painful past. I will do my best to rescue my uncle from prison."
Dante said: "This tragic story inspired me, and I want to write a poem."
Edward said: "When writing poetry, what kind of shamelessness is it that makes you have the face to sit here after listening to the lady's words?" He turned his head and said to Chen Yuanyuan: "Please rest assured that our British Empire is strong, and it is a piece of cake for us to defeat Nanjing to rescue our uncle."
He was so bragging about his slutty. Yi Yun was unhappy and Chen Yuanyuan was unhappy. She couldn't help but say in a smile: "Is the British team so powerful? It's so great! Then you hurry up and send troops. Macau is closest to Guangzhou. First break Guangzhou, then go north to take Nanjing. My father will depend on you. As long as you save my father... I... I am yours..."
She said this innocently without any sarcastic tone in the middle, but Edward's face turned red after hearing this. How could he have the courage to attack Guangzhou? Yi Yun had already transferred ten tanks and one Yiwu army to station in Guangzhou. It would be fine if the Eight-Nation Alliance did not leave Macau. Once it went out of Macau, it would have to kill the tanks. Now Macau relies on various defensive forts, trenches, forts and other things to protect itself. In addition, there was a Qing Dynasty restraint in the north, Yi Yun did not dare to attack with all his strength, so they could survive and wait for the industrial revolution to continue to create something new to fight against the big cute country.
He had to whisper: "That...this...march and war need to be arranged, and you can't just fight."
Seeing that he was defeated, Xide was extremely proud and laughed and said, "If you don't have the ability, don't brag."
Chen Yuanyuan's face also deliberately pretended to be very disappointed, looking sad and crying, making people feel very distressed. Yi Yun knew that she was pretending, but she felt heartbroken when she saw her expression next to her.
