"Have you read the letter?" Zhu Jishi asked in a low voice to Bai Siwen who had just walked into the study. Before going to work at the factory on Vincent Street today, he asked Mrs. Dulan to give Bai Siwen the letter he wrote to Emperor Daoguang.

, asking him to help make a few corrections. In fact, it means asking him to see if there are any wrong traditional Chinese characters.

"As for me, I have already read it." Bai Siwen replied respectfully. However, he felt a bit disdainful in his heart. Zhu Jishi's article was written in vernacular, and there were many misspellings and typos. The article was compared.

Compared to myself, a scholar who couldn't even pass the exam, I'm still inferior. Okay.

, you are always a master of Western learning. It is understandable that you are a member of the Imperial Academy of Western and Western countries and do not know the middle school. However, the tone in this article is too disrespectful. You do not regard Long live the Lord as the emperor at all! At the end, you still call yourself "a survivor of the Ming Dynasty" in the inscription.

”, all he had to do was publicly clamor to rebel against the Qing Dynasty and restore the Ming Dynasty.

"Can this letter be read by light?" Zhu Jishi looked down at the document as he spoke. When he got off work today, Frank Hahn came excitedly to report that coca base had been successfully extracted, and this document was about refining coca.

Alkaline procedures and reports on animal experiments with cocaine.

After hearing Zhu Jishi's question, Bai Siwen was silent for a moment, nodded heavily and said, "Mostly you can see it!"

However, there was still half a sentence he did not say. This letter would probably be presented to the Emperor of the Qing Dynasty as evidence of rebellion - but then again, if this letter was written respectfully, it would be in the hands of the Governor of Guangdong and Guangxi or someone else.

The imperial envoys have reviewed it, and there is absolutely no way it could be sent to Emperor Daoguang. However, Zhu Jishi claimed to be a "remnant of the Ming Dynasty" in the letter, and he also called Emperor Daoguang by his first name. This is completely different in nature, so Emperor Daoguang must be able to

seen.

But this is a counterargument! If it had been left to the time of Emperor Kangxi, Emperor Yongzheng, and Emperor Qianlong... well, there is no way. We can't send troops thousands of miles away to attack England, right? No, it's not completely impossible. If we can design Zhu Zhu

If Ji Shi is lured into the mainland, he can be captured and brought to justice and sentenced to death. Based on his letter, he will be sentenced to execution. Long live the Lord's mercy!

"Sir, we fought so badly in the war between China and Britain. Now the emperor must be dreaming of avenging his shame. As long as your heroic article reaches the imperial court, it will definitely be of great use." Bai Siwen secretly looked at Zhu Jishi and smiled.

of temptation.

"Svenson, do you really think so?" Zhu Jishi put down the document in his hand and frowned at Bai Siwen.

Bai Siwen was heartbroken, and all his calculations had been seen through. When he was anxious, he stuttered a little, "Master, I'm... I'm..."

"Swenson," Zhu Jishi interrupted, "Daoguang will not take revenge. He will only regret going to war with Britain now, and I don't want to be used by him. I am a survivor of the Ming Dynasty and will never do it in my life."

Set foot on the land of the Qing Dynasty!"

"Master, master..." Bai Siwen became a little anxious when he heard this, and quickly said with a smile: "Why are you doing this? It has been almost 200 years since the Qing Dynasty entered the customs. This Ming Dynasty has long been forgotten by the people of the world.

It's almost done..." As he said this, he felt it was inappropriate, but he didn't dare to say anything treacherous to make Zhu Jishi happy. He just chuckled and handed over the letter with the "typos" corrected.

Zhu Jishi took the letter, glanced at it, and said with a smile: "Swensen, you are a bannerman and the master of the Qing Dynasty. Now we are experiencing changes that have not happened in three thousand years. Why don't you want to do something for the country?"

"Hey, hey, what can I do?" Bai Siwen cheered, waved his hands repeatedly, and thought to himself: "Who doesn't want to be an official? But the officials in the imperial court are not cabbages, how can they be so easy to get? He is the one who deserves to be punished.

One, it would be nice to be an ordinary citizen if you can avoid the crime. Still want to be an official? Unless you get

I have sent you, a traitor to the Ming Dynasty, to ask for merit and receive rewards, but you have never set foot on the Qing Dynasty for the rest of your life. What should I do to Master Bai? I can't take you on the territory of England, right? But here, you are always a Hanlin

You are a lord, and you are brothers to the royal husband of the British Empire. Even Lord Jardine can't do anything to you..."

"How long have you been in England?" Zhu Jishi asked thoughtfully, "How much do you know about things in Europe?"

"As for me, the younger one came to England with Mr. Jardine. He left Guangdong in the 19th year of Daoguang's reign. He arrived in England in the 20th year of Daoguang's reign. It has been more than three years now." Bai Siwen sighed, his face

Showing a bit of a wry smile, he said, "I'm just a little stupid. I worked as a servant for Lord Jardine for several years in England. I don't know much about the outside world. I don't even know the population and the number of counties in England, let alone the Western soldiers."

Let’s ignore political affairs.”

Zhu Jishi nodded. There seemed to be no such person as Bai Siwen in history. He was probably just a small character who was living in England and waiting to die. It was his fate that he could follow him now. Why don't you give him some guidance? I hope he can serve the country in the future.

The nation does something.

"You speak English well. Can you understand the words?"

"To understand means to understand a little bit," Bai Siwen said matter-of-factly. "I can speak normal spoken English and understand some, but I can't understand articles that are too complicated."

When he was in Guangzhou, he had learned some English at the academy run by Thirteen Banks of Merchant, and because of his ability to speak a little English, he got a job from the commander of the Guangzhou Navy Banner, helping Shangguan contact the British businessmen who were smuggling opium.

As soon as Lin Zexu, the envoy of Lin Daqin, arrived, he used to go to the opium

The generals of the Eight Banners in Guangzhou, who had made countless tens of thousands of taels of silver from their business, did not swat these "flies", including commanders, co-leaders, and staff leaders, but used a few leaders as tigers to beat them, and Bai Siwen was a tiger.

He was cunning, and when he saw something was wrong, he greased his feet and sneaked to England.

Zhu Jishi took out several thick notebooks and handed them to Bai Siwen, "Svenson, this is the English-Chinese dictionary I compiled, and there is also a book about learning English grammar. You can take it and take a look first. In two days

Mr. Engels will send me a book he wrote introducing the politics and military of Western countries.

, you take it and read it first. After a while, Mr. Hemming, Mr. Jones, and Mr. Schmidt's books will be sent over. You can read them all. By the way, I am going to France next month.

Meet the French Minister of Foreign Affairs and possibly the King of France, so you can go with him."

"Meet the Minister of Foreign Affairs of France? And the Emperor of France...?" Bai Siwen took a deep breath. This Zhu Jishi is really not an ordinary person! The emperor and ministers of England and France can be seen casually, maybe

He also treated him as a guest of honor, but he didn’t know whether England and France would support him in rebelling against the Qing Dynasty! If that happened, the world would be in chaos!

Zhu Jishi paused for a moment and then said: "Swenson, did you commit something wrong in the Qing Dynasty?"

Bai Siwen sighed and nodded, "It's a matter of losing my head..."

Zhu Jishi smiled and said: "This time I have a chance to help you get out of jail, and maybe you can get a high official position in the Qing Dynasty. Are you interested?"

Is there such an opportunity? Bai Siwen nodded doubtfully. Zhu Jishi said: "Before the end of this year, the French will send a large diplomatic delegation to the Qing Dynasty. I think I can recommend you to go to the Qing Dynasty with the French delegation. Before that,

, I will also translate a few books on Western military, technology, history, and geography, and you can take them with you to the Qing court. I think it will be of great use in the future."

Bai Siwen was startled for a moment, and then he made some calculations in his mind. This is indeed an opportunity to get involved! Although the court will probably not carry out any reforms that imitate the West, it definitely wants to know more about the reality of the Western powers, not to mention that he can master it.
