Movie World I Am A King
Chapter 264: Chang Kun's Conspiracy (Part 1)
Along the way, Chang Kun's face sank like water, and Chang Wei wanted to speak several times, but seeing his father's gloomy face, he was too frightened to speak.
After the group returned to the mansion, Chang Kun sat quietly in the hall, watched his son ponder for a long while, and said, "This Zhou also...is not a good person!"
He didn't even bother to address him officially as King An, and just called him by his first name, which is a taboo in the officialdom, but at this time he didn't care so much. In Chang Kun's view, this week was also aimed at himself. Come~.
Especially the soldier's attitude gave him an ominous premonition. As the saying goes, a servant follows the master - that means, the master's attitude towards a person can be seen from his servants. One or two came out.
After all, it must be the servants who often contact the master. There are some things the master will not tell the servants behind his back. Today, Zhanbing dared to scold him in front of him, especially when his son wanted to rush forward. The servant's eyes showed eagerness to try.
This had to make him secretly figure out what Zhou Ye meant... It seems that Zhou Ye has a lot of opinions on him this time... How should he save himself? He can't even see himself, which means that he has blocked a channel, but is there anyone in these two areas who can restrain him? Not at all... This is to kill yourself.
"Father..." Chang Wei watched his father ponder for a while without saying a word, and asked involuntarily, "Is the situation very bad?"
"I'm afraid... Weier, our Chang family is doomed this time!" Chang Kun sighed and said, "Then Zhou Ye obviously doesn't want to see our father and son. I'm afraid we are really going to die this time!"
"Father, what are we going to do? Let's run away!" Chang Wei said in disbelief, "We can take the money to Nanyang, or go to the English country on a merchant ship, as long as we have money." , can't we live well wherever we are?"
"Idiot!" Chang Kun scolded his son angrily. "With this admiral's hat, we can have so much wealth. Without this official hat, without the power in your father's and my hands, then our family's money is like a child holding gold in a busy market, that is Looking for a dead end, and going to the country of English on a merchant ship? You will be eaten up by those merchants halfway, do you think those smugglers who call you brothers are good birds? Childish!"
"Then...Father, what are we going to do? We can't sit here and wait for death!" Chang Wei couldn't help saying submissively when he saw his father's angry face.
"Zhou Ye, Zhou Ye, since you are not benevolent, don't blame me for being unrighteous..." Chang Kun was able to climb from a small leader to the current high position. He decided to act first. , trying to get rid of Zhou Ye...
Although he also had good friends with ministers in Beijing who told him not to provoke Zhou Ye, King An, who had unpredictable supernatural powers, but Chang Kun, who had been driven to a dead end, couldn't care less. Die, if you struggle a bit, maybe there is still a glimmer of life.
Thinking of this, Chang Kun thought for a moment, and then said to his son who was waiting for him to make up his mind: "Go out through the back door now, and quietly invite Mr. Charlie from the British business house to your home, and tell me that I have something important to do. Talk to him..."
"But... what about Zhou Ye?" Chang Wei looked confused, why his family was at the critical point of life and death, and his father asked him to invite the businessman from English who used to cooperate with smugglers in cigarettes? ?
"Go as soon as I tell you!" Chang Kun completely gave up treatment for his son, who has developed limbs and a simple mind, "I have my own ideas!"
"Oh!" Chang Wei left in response timidly. When Chang Kun showed his power, he was still a little scared.
After Chang Wei left, Chang Kun sat on the teacher's chair, pondered for a long time, and after sorting out all the interests, he picked up the tea bowl and took a sip of tea in peace. "Hey, why is the tea cold? Come on, come on!"
"Master, what are your orders!" A maid walked in quickly when she heard Chang Kun's shout.
"Why is the tea cold and you don't know how to change the water? How do you slaves do things?" Chang Kun angrily scolded: "Is it because I have indulged you slaves too much in the past, so I let you all Dare to ride on my head? Huh?"
"Old, master... yes, you ordered us not to come near the main room..." The maid explained with a look of fear.
When Chang Kun heard the maid's words, his anger became even stronger: "How dare you talk back? Someone, drag this lowly maid down, beat her hard, beat her to death..."
Several servants rushed forward, dragged the poor maid out of the courtyard, pressed the ground and beat her...
"My lord... let me spare my servant... my servant will never dare again..."
"Ah... master... please forgive me... ah... please forgive this servant..."
Hearing the screams and begging for mercy coming from outside, Chang Kun took a deep breath, as if the tense strings had been relieved a bit...
The maid's cry from outside became weaker and weaker... After half an hour, there was no more sound, and the servant came in to report: "Master, she passed out..."
"Throw it into the woodshed and let her fend for herself..." Chang Kun ordered casually.
"Yes!" The servant took the order and turned to leave...
Chang Kun has a little secret. Whenever he is faced with an important decision, he wants to torture others very much. When he was in charge of the navy, countless pirates were directly tortured to death by him. Those pirates hated him so much that their teeth itch...
It's just that Chang Kun is a little older and his status is different now, and this time is not a good time. He still has to wait here for the arrival of Charlie, a businessman from the English country. If he plays in person, he will look bloody After all, it's not good...so I can only listen to the maid's screams to soothe my emotions.
Slowly calming down, Chang Kun picked up the tea that the servants had just brought up, took a sip, and said to himself, "Huh... almost, it's time to arrive!"
Sure enough, it was not too late, when I heard a voice with a foreign tone. "Hi, Mr. Chang, good afternoon!"
"Haha, Mr. Charlie. I have been waiting for you for a long time!" Chang Kun laughed and welcomed Charlie into the house, and then told his son: "Will, you go to the kitchen and explain that Mr. Charlie is here as a guest today. They must prepare a rich meal for me, and don't let the guests see the joke!"
"Yes!" Chang Wei knew that his father wanted to distract him, so he didn't say much, he responded, turned and left the main room.
Chang Kun and Charlie sat down as guest and host, and his own servant brought two cups of good tea.
After taking a sip of tea, the old god Charlie asked: "Mr. Chang specially ordered your son to call me here today, not just to treat me to tea and dinner, right?"
As the full-fledged head of the English East India Company's Guangzhou office, Charlie has been in the Qing Dynasty for seven or eight years, and he can be regarded as a China hand.
"Then I won't go around in circles!" Chang Kun thought for a moment, and then asked, "I don't know what your Excellency Charlie thinks about King An Zhou Ye who is coming to Guangdong and Guangxi soon?"
"Huh?" Charlie suddenly felt that the situation was not right. Admiral Chang invited himself to his home and hosted a banquet. Could it be that he was just asking himself about the coming man who was said to have the power of life and death in Guangdong and Guangxi? What does King An think?
Charlie considered it for a while, and asked back: "What does Your Excellency Chang Kun think of this King An?"
