Hearing this, Zhang Heling snorted coldly and said, "You know what's going on, otherwise I will definitely talk to your father-in-law today."

As he spoke, Zhang Heling said to Feng Daodao, who was driving the car: "Hurry up and leave."

So many carriages stopped early and did not continue to move forward. Instead, the carriage of the Zhang brothers continued to move forward, naturally standing out from the crowd and acting alone.

Many officials who got off the carriage and walked to the British government palace looked at this carriage with surprise and concern.

"Hey, whose carriage is this? It was able to break through the obstruction of the British government and continue moving forward."

"I heard that even the sedans of Chief Assistant Li Dongyang, Ge Lao Yang Ting and the two elders stopped in the distance and walked to pay homage to the old Duke. The people in this carriage are really distinguished."

Someone recognized the carriage of the Zhang brothers and whispered: "This is the carriage of the Shouning Hou family. Everyone should be careful when speaking. If you say the wrong thing and provoke the other party, it will be a big trouble.

"

As soon as they heard that it was the carriage of the Shouning Hou family, many officials who were not of high rank immediately thought of all the evil things that a pair of brothers from the Zhang family had done, and they all showed a look of fear on their faces.

They really can't afford to offend this pair of weird brothers.

On the carriage, brothers Zhang Heling and Zhang Yanling looked through the window at their carriage, which was the only one walking forward on the long street. They were surrounded by officials on foot. From time to time, some officials cast surprised glances at their carriage.

This makes brothers Zhang Heling and Zhang Yanling feel very happy. Others can't pass by, but their brothers can. This is what makes their uncles unique.

The carriage stopped at the gate of the British Palace. Brothers Zhang Yanling and Zhang Heling got off the carriage and looked up at the gate of the British Palace.

The steward who had been accompanying him hurriedly went to find the etiquette officer in charge of welcoming the guests and informed Marquis Shouning and Marquis Jianchang that they were here.

After hearing the words, the courtesy officer naturally came up to them immediately. With a smile on his face, he cupped his hands to the two brothers who were looking around and said: "Two princes, please follow me."

This courtesy officer is an official sent by the Ministry of Rites, who is responsible for welcoming some high-ranking officials and dignitaries. With the identities of Shouning Marquis and Jianchang Marquis, this courtesy officer is enough to greet them.

Hearing this, the two brothers standing at the door raised their heads and glanced at the etiquette officer.

Shouning Hou Zhang Heling said calmly: "Who are you to ask the British Duke Zhang Lun to come to welcome us in person?"

Zhang Yanling, the Marquis of Jianchang, glanced at the official and said, "We brothers have come to express condolences to Zhang Mao on the order of the Queen Mother. This is to give them the great dignity of the British government. Isn't it possible that Zhang Lun can't

Will you come to greet us in person?"

Hearing this, the courtesy officer showed a bit of a wry smile and said, "Are the two princes representing the Queen Mother?"

Hearing the etiquette officer ask this question, Zhang Heling frowned and said, "So what if it is? So what if it's not?"

The ceremony officer said seriously: "If the two princes represent the Queen Mother, then naturally the British father-in-law will come to greet her in person."

Zhang Yanling snorted coldly and said, "What if we come here on our own behalf?"

The ceremony official said slowly: "Then I can only bother the two princes to accompany the officials to the mourning hall to express their condolences to the old Duke."

The etiquette officer's meaning was very clear, that is, if they represented the Queen Mother, their status was extraordinary, and Zhang Lun must come to greet them. However, if they only represented themselves, they were not qualified for Zhang Lun to come.

The two brothers act unscrupulously, absurdly and uninhibited, but that doesn't mean they are fools. Why can't they understand the meaning of Li Mandarin?

The two brothers looked at each other and immediately became angry. They came to express their condolences to Zhang Mao regardless of their previous grudges. This was already a great honor to the British government.

But Zhang Lun didn't come to greet them, which meant he didn't take them to heart, and this little courtesy official dared to underestimate their brothers.

With a snap, Zhang Heling slapped the official with a big slap in the ear.

Zhang Heling's slap immediately stunned the ceremony official, who looked at Zhang Heling with a look of disbelief on his face.

Zhang Heling was heard yelling at the official: "Who the hell are you? You dare to underestimate our brothers. Get out of here and let Zhang Lun come to greet us. Otherwise, we will beat you to death. Believe it or not."

.”

The official was dumbfounded. Although he had known for a long time that these brothers were a strange pair, he had never really seen them before.

Who would have thought that these two brothers would actually cause trouble in front of the British Duke's funeral?

High-ranking officials and dignitaries from the British government were coming and going. The scene where the Marquis of Jianchang and the Marquis of Shouning were beating someone at the door was seen by many officials.

Many people saw this scene without any surprise on their faces, and even looked as if it was indeed the case.

It seems like they are not surprised by anything these two brothers do.

An official looked at the joke and said to his colleagues: "Not to mention, only these two brothers can do such offending things."

An official sneered and said: "They are really not afraid of completely offending the British government by making a big fuss in front of the British government at this time."

This is Zhang Mao's funeral. Even the emperor sent envoys to express condolences, and the elders of the court also came here to express their condolences. What a sad honor this is.

However, this pair of brothers dared to make such a fuss. Many people really didn't know whether to say that the other party was ignorant or that they were really acting unscrupulously.

The ceremony officer reacted and said to Shouning Hou and Jianchang Hou: "I am the official of the imperial court and a member of the Ministry of Etiquette. I came to assist the British government in the funeral at your majesty's order. You...you dare to beat the imperial official. I will decide

I want to impeach you to His Majesty..."

Hearing this, Zhang Yanling couldn't help but raise her foot and kick the courtesy officer in the face and cursed angrily: "You bastard, I'm just going to beat you, Lord Marquis, so what, if you have the ability, go ahead and impeach him."

The ceremony officer was ashamed and angry. He stamped his feet and said, "Okay, okay, you wait."

After saying that, the ceremonial officer turned around and ran towards the British Duke's palace. He had to ask the British Duke Zhang Lun to make the decision for him. Moreover, Zhang Yanling and Zhang Heling's brothers openly beat the ceremonial officer in the British Duke's palace and made a big fuss about the British Duke's funeral. What a death.

He really offended the British government to death.

The etiquette officer didn't believe that Zhang Lun would not react at all. As an official of the Ministry of Rites, he really couldn't do anything to the other party, but as a British prince, Zhang Lun could.

In the mourning hall, accompanied by Zhang Lun, Li Huan paid homage to Zhang Mao, and then nodded slightly to Zhang Lun.

When he was about to speak, he saw the official's face was red and swollen, and even his official uniform had clear footprints, and he came over with a look of shame and anger.

Many people saw this scene and couldn't help but look shocked.

The ceremonial officer is an official sent by the Ministry of Rites of the imperial court. Many people know this. It can be said that he represents the imperial court. What is going on? It looks like he was beaten.

Could it be that someone was making a big fuss at the British Duke's funeral? Such thoughts flashed through their minds, and these people immediately suppressed the thought.

If you dare to make a big fuss at this time, you are really not afraid of being hated by the British government.

Although Zhang Mao is gone, a skinny camel is bigger than a horse. The British government is still the most noble family in the Ming Dynasty. If it has the energy to take revenge on one person, there are really not many people who can bear it.

.

Zhang Lun's expression changed slightly when he saw the embarrassed appearance of the ceremony officer, and his face suddenly became gloomy.

The courtesy officer not only represents the face of the court, but also the face of the British government. But now who will tell him what is going on.

Li Huan was also stunned for a moment, and glanced at the official in confusion, but this is the British Duke's mansion, and Zhang Lun is the master of the British Duke. He came to express condolences on behalf of the emperor. Even if something happened, Zhang Lun would be the one to come.

Disposal is.

However, Li Huan was also quite curious as to what was going on.

Zhang Lun took a deep breath and apologized to Li Huan. Then his eyes fell on the ceremony officer and asked in a low voice: "What happened?"

The courtesy officer's face was full of grievances and he said: "Back to the British Duke, a pair of brothers, Shouning Marquis Zhang Heling and Jianchang Marquis Zhang Yanling, came to express their condolences. The lower official kindly led them here, but they insisted on asking you, the British Duke.

He couldn't go to greet them in person, and even said that the official looked down on their brothers, and even beat the official."

Zhang Lun listened to the ceremony officer's statement and glanced at the steward of the mansion who was following him.

The steward noticed Zhang Lun's gaze and nodded slightly to Zhang Lun, indicating to Zhang Lun that what the courtesy officer said was true.

Zhang Lun was filled with rage.

Brothers Zhang Yanling and Zhang Heling usually did not deal with them as nobles. His grandfather had looked down on them as a pair of brothers during his lifetime, and bluntly said that the Zhang brothers would die sooner or later.

But it is true that the relationship between the two parties is not good, but the Zhang brothers should never make a fuss at their grandfather's funeral. Is this simply a slap in the face of their British prince, bullying him, a good-tempered British prince?

Thinking of this, Zhang Lun took a deep breath, with a gloomy face, and strode towards the door of the British Duke's Mansion.

At this moment, Qiu Ju, who was standing next to Li Huan, whispered to Li Huan: "Tsk, tsk, just now our family was curious about who could do such a stupid thing. Since it is the pair of weird brothers from the Zhang family, then...

There’s nothing to be surprised about.”

Hearing this, Li Huan couldn't help but smile bitterly and shook his head. The more you know about this pair of strange brothers, the more dumbfounded you will be.

Previously, relying on the favor of Emperor Xiaozong and Empress Dowager Zhang, he even did ridiculous things such as raping palace maids and stealing imperial crowns. Now he insists that he is the emperor's biological uncle. Yougui protects the empress dowager's sister and acts even more.

absurd.

To be honest, Li Huan really didn't think highly of Zhang Lun. Zhang Lun was a British official, but he didn't have any real power in his hands. The two brothers were capable of doing big things. It seemed that it would be okay to make a fuss about Zhang Mao's funeral.

Nothing.

If it were ordinary people, even if Zhang Lun ordered his people to beat him to death, no one would say anything. Even if the emperor found out, he would only think that the other party deserved it.

The key troublemakers were the Zhang brothers. If Zhang Lun really dared to hurt these brothers, the emperor might not care, but the Queen Mother would definitely not let it go.

If the British Duke Zhang Mao was still alive, he might not be afraid of this. The key point is that Zhang Lun is not Zhang Mao.

With these thoughts in his mind, Li Huan said to Qiu Ju: "Let's go and have a look. After all, we are also the emperor's special envoys. If it doesn't work, we can step in and suppress the brothers. We can't really let them publicize in England."

There was a lot of commotion at the funeral, and it was so loud that it didn’t look good on anyone’s face.”

Qiu Ju smiled and said, "Brother Li is still kind-hearted. It's you. If it were anyone else, you wouldn't have caused such trouble for yourself!"

Li Huan shook his head and said: "Forget it, let's go take a look first. Maybe the Zhang brothers will take care of the overall situation and not cause a scene."

When Qiu Ju heard what Li Huan said, he immediately said disdainfully: "If their brothers knew what the overall situation is, then they wouldn't be so disgusted by the people in the capital, and no one would care about them."

As he spoke, Qiu Ju smiled at Li Huan in a low voice and said, "By the way, our family is listening to His Majesty's wishes and seems to want to match you with the British prince's youngest daughter."

Li Huan glanced at Qiu Ju and said with a smile: "When did Brother Qiu become so talkative?"

Qiu Ju smiled and said: "This is not nonsense. Before the old prince passed away, he deliberately mentioned this in front of the emperor. Although he did not directly ask the emperor for help in granting a marriage or anything, his old fox,

Every word and action is full of profound meaning. When he was dying, he didn’t mention anything else, but he mentioned you and his daughter. Brother Li, you should be very clear about what his purpose was."

Li Huan couldn't help but remain silent after hearing this.

How could he not understand why Zhang Mao mentioned in a joking tone that he wanted to recruit him as his son-in-law when he was dying? He was not telling it to him, but deliberately telling it to the emperor.

Obviously Zhang Mao's goal was achieved, and the emperor must have kept it in his heart. Otherwise, he would not have sent him as an envoy to express condolences, let alone remind him that he might as well meet the British minister if he had the opportunity.

The little daughter who was still in my heart till my death.

Obviously the emperor had his thoughts in mind.

Qiu Ju looked at Li Huan's expression and said in a low voice: "From what we can tell, brother Li, with your current status and future authority, if your majesty has a sister, he will definitely marry her to you. It's a pity that your majesty has no brothers or sisters."

, In this way, Your Majesty can only help Brother Li choose a suitable marriage, and the British government seems to be the best candidate."
