Just as Li Qing and the others were discussing how to get the Eagle and Hair Country's envoys to agree to the agreement.
In an inconspicuous courtyard in Tianjin Prefecture, a group of people were sitting around and discussing something.
At this moment, a black shadow flew over.
"Who is it?" Everyone who sensed the commotion drew their sabers and shouted.
"It's me!" The man in black said in a low voice.
Everyone heaved a sigh of relief and put their swords back in their original positions.
"Lan, did you get any information from Qing Yao's lair?”The young man in the lead said.
"Loyalty to the king is a thousand years old!" Just as Lan was about to kneel down, the man gently held her arm and said gently,"Lan, don't be so formal. Just call me Xiucheng.”
Alan bit her lip. "The loyal king is a thousand years old. There's a difference between the upper and lower levels.”
Li Xiucheng could only give up when he saw Alan's insistence.
Seeing Li Xiucheng put his hand down, Alan continued,"Right now, the situation seems to be unfavorable for our Heavenly State. Originally, we predicted that Qing Yao would definitely lose this battle, but under the command of the Gong Prince, they actually defeated the alliance army at the Eight Mile Bridge.”
After everyone heard this, their faces were filled with shock as they shifted their gazes to Li Xiucheng.
Li Xiucheng also found it unbelievable. He had come into contact with the foreign spear team once in June this year. Although they won in the end, their side had suffered heavy casualties. But now, Qing Yao could actually defeat nearly 8,000 armed allied forces. It seemed that the Gong Prince was definitely the biggest obstacle to the revival of the Heavenly State.
Thus, Li Xiucheng said," This time, This Prince secretly went to Tianjin to kill one or two foreigners and frame the Qing Kingdom to prevent the Qing Kingdom from reconciling with the other countries. But now, it seems that assassinating the Gong Prince can maximize the benefits of Heavenly State. Ah Lan, you are the best in Qinggong among us. Tell me, what are the chances of us succeeding in this assassination?”
"At most 50%!"
"Very good, it's two levels higher than I imagined! Tonight, we will make our move."
Just as everyone was about to leave, Lee Xiucheng glanced at Alan's waist. "Eh? Lan, where did you get this purse? It's so exquisite.”
Seeing Li Xiucheng staring at her waist, Ah Lan immediately reached out to block him. She said," I picked it up on the road " and left.
......
When night fell, the families in the capital city of Tianjin blew out their oil lamps after a busy day. They were either resting or carrying out the only night activity in ancient times. However, the government office was brightly lit.
When Li Qing, who was wearing a suit and leather shoes, walked out of the room, Wen Xiang, Bao Yun, and the others who were waiting outside were stunned.
"Wangye, why are you dressed like this?”
Li Qing spun around. That long-awaited tight feeling was really great. "How is it?"
"It looks okay, but it's a little out of place!”
Li Qing smiled and said," It's fine. It won't be out of place if you watch it many times. By the way, tonight is a buffet party. You don't have to worry about me."”After saying that, Li Qing left in a carefree manner.
Wen Xiang saw the Gong Prince leave and could only smile,""Lord Baoyun, it seems that we can only do the task His Highness gave us this afternoon.”
The location of the party was set in the open space in the backyard of the government office.
Other than the people who participated in the negotiations between the three countries, there were also envoys from other countries stationed in the Qing Dynasty, such as: Ignatiev, Russian envoy to China, and Hua Ruohan, American envoy to China.
As the music played, the backyard was filled with cheers and laughter.
At this moment, a group of young women carrying dishes walked in from outside.
"Eh? Wasn't this the purse that was stolen that day? Why was it on this tall woman? Could it be? She was the chivalrous lady from that day! However, she was not in the capital. Why was she now in the Tianjin government and even a servant girl?”Li Qing, who found it a little unbelievable, quietly paid attention to her.
It had to be said that ever since the Gong Prince defeated the allied forces at the Eight Mile Bridge, the political figures of the various countries had become interested in this Prince. However, they had never had the chance to do so. Thus, when the Gong Prince said that he was going to hold a banquet, not only did the envoys of the various countries come, but even their wives, daughters, and some socialites also accompanied him.
The entire backyard was filled with blonde-haired, blue-eyed western women. They were all wearing evening gowns that exposed their chests and backs. When they saw the servant maids serving the dishes, their faces turned red and their heads were lowered. They wished they could find a hole to hide in.
Among them, the performance of the 'heroine' that day was especially serious. She buried her head and walked forward hurriedly.
"Be careful!" Just as Li Qing was about to remind her, it was too late.‘The woman slammed the bowl full of soup onto the Russian envoy.
At this moment, the girl also reacted and said instinctively,"I'm sorry! I'm sorry! I didn't do it on purpose."
Unfortunately, like the Qing Kingdom, the power of the monarch was concentrated in Russia, and there was a strict system of seniority. Therefore, when the Russian envoy saw that his clothes were dirty, he flew into a rage. Just as he was about to whip her, he found that the girl who dirtied his clothes was extremely beautiful. Coupled with a little shyness, it made the fat bear's appetite rise.
Hence, he chuckled in broken Chinese and said,""Little servant girl, you only have two choices now. Either you stay and accompany me, or you die!”
At this moment, Ah Lan was extremely conflicted. She had finally managed to get in with great difficulty. Originally, everything was under control, but someone had appeared halfway. Now, she really did not know what to choose. Should she sacrifice herself to complete the mission, or
Just as Alan was in a dilemma, the Russian envoy could not help but touch his furry hand on Alan's face. Li Qing made his move.
He grabbed the Russian envoy's hand and said,""Isn't it just a piece of clothing? Is there a need to force a little girl?”
The Russian envoy had never seen Li Qing before, so he did not know that he was the Gong Prince. He struggled free and said,"This has nothing to do with you. Get out of the way or I'll beat you up too!”
At this time, Wen Xiang, who was chatting with the Eagle Kingdom Viscount, saw that His Highness was arguing with the Russian envoy and quickly walked over. Seeing Li Qing and him blinking and pouting, Wen Xiang knew that His Highness did not want to expose his identity. Therefore, Wen Xiang, who originally wanted to ask about the situation, changed his method and directly said to the Russian envoy,""Ignatiev, long time no see. How have you been?”
Ignatiev saw that someone was calling him and turned around to see that it was the Gong Prince's number one confidant, Wen Xiang. He took off his dirty coat and threw it to Li Qing's side. He said,"Just wait and see," and walked towards Wen Xiang.
Li Qing saw this gap and pulled the heroine out.
Li Qing only stopped when they reached a small forest. It was only then that Lan, who had been pulled by a member of the opposite sex for the first time, reacted.
He quickly retracted his hand and said shyly,"Thank you, Young Master, for helping me out!"
After saying that, Alan prepared to leave.
"Miss, that purse should be mine!" Li Qing quickly said.”
Alan, who had just taken two steps, turned around and looked at Li Qing with a puzzled expression.
"There are three taels of silver and six coins inside. That day in the capital, young lady was wearing…"
"Alright, stop talking. I believe you, okay?”After saying that, Alan threw the purse over.
As for Ah Lan, after knowing that Li Qing knew that she knew Qinggong, she no longer hid it. Seeing that the 'chivalrous lady' was about to leave, Li Qing hurriedly shouted,"Miss, I still don't know your name. Oh right, my name is Li Qing, Qing as in 'Qing Ben Jiaren!'”
