Chapter 115: Perry is going to Japan

The White House of the United States

Perry, commander of the East India Fleet, took a letter from President Fillmore and asked: "Sir President, you have asked me to ban Japan's policy of closing the country and not allow my fleet to fire. Is this a threat? I am not a God. Besides, those Japanese monkeys do not believe in God."

President Fillmore smiled and explained to Perry: "My dear general, this is the best way for my think tank. You must know that the cake in the Far East has been prepared, but we don't have a plate. Japan is this plate. The United States should have an excuse to participate. In the past decade, Britain and France have gained generous benefits in the Far East, but we in the United States! We can't open the situation, so I'll send you to Asia to be a deterrent!"

Perry repeated: "Deterrence? But I have more confidence in the shells! I suggest talking directly with China so that you can get the same benefits as the UK."

The president shook his head and waved his hand again, retorting: "That would attract opposition from Britain. The United States is not able to compete with Britain in Asia. We open Japan, Britain, France, the Netherlands and even Russia, and they will follow in, so that we can enter their sphere of influence with justification. Do you understand? My general!"

Perry nodded and repeated: "Because our navy is too weak to offend Britain, we should give him some benefits. This is just exchange and use the interests of Japan."

The president happily patted Perry on the shoulder and said, "I originally planned to let you go around the Atlantic Ocean, but the situation in China has changed too quickly. I have received the complaint from Mr. Mai Lian, the seventh Consul in China. The benefits the British obtain in China are hundreds of times that of our United States. As the president of the United States, I do not allow this situation to continue to develop. So you pass through the Pacific Ocean and pass through Australia, Singapore, Hong Kong, and Shanghai. By the way, I will write a letter, you hand it over to a man named His Highness the King of Han, and the subsequent things will be handed over to Mr. Mai Lian, and you lead the fleet to Japan."

Perry estimated the time and said, "It may take three months to reach the Far East."

The president smiled and said, "Yes, good luck, my bravest general!"

Jiao Liang was recently appointed as the commander of the infantry in Nanjing, but he always felt uncomfortable, worried that the emperor still had doubts about him because of the Jiao Jing incident, so why the foreign gun team in Nanjing was not under the jurisdiction of the commander's office, but instead became more capable.

Xu Yuegui looked at her husband's tea and food without thinking about it, and she lost weight. She advised: "Husband is still thinking about Jiao Jing. Although I am just a wife, I understand the goodness of the emperor to us. If you put it on others, your family will be searched and exterminated. Then you will continue to be an official and a concubine."

Seeing his wife misunderstood, Jiao Liang frowned and explained, "What do you know! I am worried that the emperor is resentful to Jiao Jing. This is not easy for Yuexiang to have a holiday in the palace. When I was greedy for wealth and wealth, I sent her into the palace. Maybe it was wrong. Now that the emperor ascended the throne, there will only be more and more concubines. Yuexiang's weak surname is at the most disadvantage, plus the emperor... hey!"

Xu Yuegui grabbed her husband's shoulder and leaned over and whispered: "Yuexiang is now named the Imperial Concubine, second only to the Queen. She doesn't know how happy she is! Besides, she has always been intimate with the Queen. With the Queen's support, who dares to bully Yuexiang? You should not worry about her anymore, but consider yourself more, don't mingle with Lu Jianying's group of people all day long. I feel that something will happen sooner or later if this continues."

After all, Jiao Liang was too lazy to explain the reason for doing this, but instead said to his wife: "If you have time, call Yuexiang home. I will interrogate and interrogate. If the emperor treats Yuexiang harshly, I will even be punished and advised."

Jiao Liang was not thinking about this. He didn't understand why Xu Yuexiang had been in the palace for so long, but there was no news of her pregnancy. He thought it was the emperor's problem, but the queen was pregnant first and disappointed him. If the queen gave birth to a boy this time, then his nephew would never have thought of inheriting the throne.

Xu Yuegui did not doubt her husband's intentions, but said with relief: "I will go to the palace to talk to Yuexiang tomorrow, so that she can have time to go home. Now Yuexiang doesn't have to be the past, and our Jiao family cannot neglect it."

Jiao Liang promised: "I understand all these things. Today I will ask them to purchase supplies, and they will definitely do it beautifully, so that Yuexiang can be happy."

When Li Yunzhong woke up in the morning, he actually heard the sound of "ping, clang" weapons hitting in the yard. From time to time, a sweet shout came. This was Yuexiang's voice, and this sound of Xuan Jiao's voice. The cheering voice was Shanxiang... Li Yunzhong quickly jumped out of bed, put on his shoes and ran out to see what was going on.

Xu Yuexiang's petite and delicate body shone the phosphorescence of a long sword dance, and pulled up and down. Hong Xuanjiao used a spear to thrust left and right. The two of them were up and down, jumping and lying, and they attacked each other without giving in.

"What are they doing?" Li Yunzhong asked Fu Shanxiang, who was watching the fun while seeing that he was not in danger of his life.

Fu Shanxiang was startled when he saw Li Yunzhong's clothes, and suddenly smiled, and asked with his lips pursed, "Why did the emperor run out without wearing clothes? Although it is now the day of the world, the emperor is the king of a country. What kind of morality is it to be seen by others?"

Only then did Li Yunzhong realize that he was not wearing clothes on his upper body. He smiled embarrassedly and put on his clothes. When he arrived at the yard, he saw Xu Yuexiang and Hong Xuanjiao looking at each other three meters away. Sweat on his face dripped across his chin and dripped on his undulating chest.

Fu Shanxiang looked at Li Yunzhong's nervous look and explained: "The weapons used by both sisters are particularly made and cannot hurt people. You don't have to worry, your husband."

Seeing Fu Shanxiang's face strange, Li Yunzhong asked, "Why did they fight? Is it to exercise?"

Fu Shanxiang finally couldn't help laughing, and after a while, he explained: "Today they discussed together what name should be given to the child the queen gave birth to. As they were talking, they started arguing and agreed to each other who won and whoever named the child's nickname."

Li Yunzhong wondered: "The child's name should be chosen by me as my father. What are their names?"

"Sister Hong is named Li Xiaoyun, and Sister Xu is named Li Xiaozhong, haha..." Fu Shanxiang laughed without any image in Li Yunzhong's arms.

"Don't laugh, what's so funny!" Xu Yuexiang and Hong Xuanjiao shouted at Fu Shanxiang.
