Chapter 90: Foreign Talents Have Kind Hearts

Paris, Pont Neuf!

A group of people in black cloaks got on the bustling new bridge.

The cloak was so big that it almost covered the whole body, and even his face was hidden in the darkness.

Since the group of twelve people set foot on the new bridge, the pedestrians on the new bridge, the carriage, and the merchants who were selling, the noisy flower girl, even the drama that was singing stopped, everyone stopped their work. , Looked at this team of men in black together.

Ignoring, the man in black continued to walk to the other side of the new bridge, and the leather boots under his feet stepped on the stone, making a click.

“Gold!”

A beggar with rotten teeth suddenly yelled out.

Attracting everyone’s attention.

The last man in black looked at the beggar indifferently, took a handful of Riffel from his arms and threw it at the beggar. Immediately, the beggar was overwhelmed by the surging crowd.

Riffel is French currency, similar to Daming’s silver dollar, both are silver currency, but in terms of appearance, the quality of this minted silver coin is far less exquisite than the silver coin stamped by Daming.

“Zhang Liang, don’t mess around!”

Qiao Yong, who was walking in the front, gave a low cry, and Zhang Liang quickly followed the team, pretending not to see the white chest deliberately exposed by the flower seller.

Watching this group of men in black walking away, the policeman in half-cloak Zhu Yude quickly followed him. He was also very curious about the way these people came from. The man in black who was headed just now reprimanded the last man in black. He has never heard of it.

However, he didn’t dare to lean up and ask easily, because those black cloaks had a golden yellow medal he had never seen before, and he had never seen the pattern of the medal. It was a kind of magical monster.

Zhu Yude had never heard of any family that would use such a monster as its own clan emblem.

However, in these people’s black cloaks, not only muskets were hidden, but also long knives were hung. Zhu Yude could even smell the smell of wild beasts from these people.

“These people are soldiers. They are all soldiers who have experienced many battles. What is their purpose in coming to Paris?”

Zhu Yude said to himself, and followed these people onto the Champs Elysées Pastoral Avenue, which is also the Queen’s Avenue.

It is not allowed to dump garbage on this road. Therefore, after stepping on this street, Qiao Yong and others couldn’t help but stomped their boots severely. Until now, their noses still have a strong smell. The smell of urine and excrement lingers.

Thinking of the dark and narrow street they had just passed through, Qiao Yong, who was able to eat in the face of the smell of carrion, couldn’t help but retching twice.

They had arrived in three carriages, but when they entered the city, the carriage was overwhelmed by the raging crowd of beggars.

The young Qiao Yong had never seen such a large number of beggars. He once thought that this country called France was a country of beggars.

The beggars made it difficult for the carriages to be congested. So, in order to see the King of France, Qiao Yong ordered to walk there, and the carriages rushed over.

It has been four years since Qiao Yong came to Paris.

Now, he really wanted to complete the task and return to Daming.

When they stepped onto Queen’s Road, there were fewer beggars. However, all the beggars here didn’t look like good people. One by one, they hid on the corner of the street and looked at them with greedy eyes.

For these people, Qiaoyong still knows that these people are the kings of various beggar groups, and only these kings can come to beg on Queen Street.

They are not so much begging as they are all villains. They kill, rob, abduct, kidnap, steal and do almost everything.

In the past, when his group had only three people, Qiao Yong would still treat them as one thing, but when his brothers arrived on a large scale, he was full of contempt for the city and the emperor here.

Daming wanted to build an embassy here. Originally, he thought that he could buy land and build a house with the permission of the French King Louis XIV. It would be able to implement the official documents that required French merchants to go to Daming, and get the guarantee from the French King .

The problem is that Qiao Yong and others have met Louis XIV at the Palace of Fontainebleau in Fontainebleau, and the Queen Mother of the Regent. Louis XIV also agreed to the Ming Empire to build a glorious embassy in Paris. Agreed to all requirements of the Ming Empire.

It’s a pity… he doesn’t count.

At this time, it was not King Louis XIV of France who controlled Paris, but the slingers Prince Condé, Madame Chevres, Madame Longueville and others. This time they wanted to meet Prince Condé.

The reason why I still have to see Prince Condai is that it is the Prince who used the stone to drive the emperor away.

Thinking about the Parisians driving away the emperor a few years ago, Qiao Yong couldn’t figure out until now that the dignified emperor was scared by a group of people’s trebuchets to leave the capital and wander outside.

This makes Qiao Yong’s overall perception of France even worse.

In the past, his Majesty killed countless thieves and all the people in the world who dared to be a soldier before he became emperor. In this regard, France is not worthy of his Majesty personally writing the ambassador’s appointment letter, nor is he worthy of enjoying the ambassador’s appointment. gift.

It was agreed with the carriage to meet on Queen’s Avenue, so Qiao Yong took the people to a stop at Notre Dame de Paris.

There is a huge square here, and the square is even more crowded, but everyone seems to have no good feelings for Qiao Yong and the twelve people, or they hide far away because of fear.

A group of people gathered around a gallows to watch the excitement. Qiao Yong had no interest in it, but the other brothers were surprised to see an individual being sent to the gallows and then hanged alive.

A poor woman howled and was put a rope around her neck, and then a strong man pushed the machine around. The poor woman was immediately hanged, and she didn’t even mean to struggle.

“The neck bone was broken in the first place.”

Seeing that Zhang Liang didn’t seem to have the heart to bear, Qiao Yong explained to him, “This woman committed an abortion. According to the judge’s sentence just now, this woman committed a capital crime because she helped other women have a miscarriage.”

Zhang Liang frowned and said, “Isn’t the sin dying? If this could also be hanged, Daming’s old bustards would have been hanged 10,000 times.”

Qiao Yong took out a cigarette from his pocket and lit it and said, “Don’t compare this place with Daming. Look at that kid. After stealing three times, he will be hanged.”

Zhang Liang looked back and saw that a boy of about ten years old was hugged by the executioner on a wooden pier because he was not tall enough, and he put a rope around his neck.

The young man seemed to be not afraid of death. He looked around, with a relaxed expression on his face, and even politely pleaded with the executioner, “Can I hear the bell of Notre Dame again? So I can go. Heaven, see my father.”

The executioner looked up at the sun, he hehe smiled and agreed, but the crowd watching around made a burst of hiss. One of the fat cooks shouted, “Hang him, hang this thief, he stole me. A piece of bread, he is not worthy of heaven, he is not worthy of hearing the diffusive bell.”

“Those who stole the food will be hanged?” Zhang Liang asked Qiao Yong, his eyes widened.

“If he steals more than three times, he will be hanged, no matter what he stole.”

“I remember stealing food in Daming is not stealing.”

Qiao Yong blanked Zhang Liang’s eyes and said, “Daming people have the right to eat their stomachs. Stealing food when they are hungry is called self-haven, and here is a crime.”

Finally, the mass bells of Notre Dame de Paris rang, and the little boy looked up at the high clock tower with hopes in his eyes. It seemed that these bells could really send his soul to heaven.

The bell stopped, and the little boy said to the executioner, “Thank you, sir. God will bless you for your kindness. Now, you can hang me.”

The executioner untied the rope from his neck and threw him under the table with his arm. “Lucky little guy, you are not guilty. God saved you.”

The little boy who fell to the ground looked around blankly, and saw that the fat bread cook was shouting to the judge, “My lord, he really didn’t steal my bread. Yes, he didn’t steal it. I remembered it wrong.” .”

Mr. Judge said blankly, “False accusation, fine two Riffles.”

The fat cook quickly took out his money bag and counted two Riffles and handed them to the police. Then he said loudly to the young man, “You must remember me.”

After that, he hurried into the crowd and ran away, seemingly worried that someone would chase him.

The little boy looked around, and finally came to Qiao Yong’s side tremblingly and bent over and said, “Thank you, sir, you must have saved me.”

Qiao Yong was stunned for a moment, then looked at the little boy’s blue eyes and said, “Why are you sure that I saved you?”

The little boy showed a shy smile and said, “My mother said that the hearts of Parisians are like stone, and only those who come from abroad have compassion.”

Qiao Yong pointed to Zhang Liangdao. “You are right. The Parisian heart is like an iron stone. I have stayed here for too long, and my heart has become like an iron stone. This person who has just arrived in Paris is indeed much more kind than me, redeeming you. The money came from him.”

“Thank you, gentle sir!”

The little boy bowed to Zhang Liang again.

Zhang Liang waved his hand generously and said, “In my country, everyone has the right to eat full, because stealing food from a hungry stomach is never a crime, but it should be.”

The big boy with the blue eyes of the little boy said to Zhang Liang earnestly, “Mr. Kind, can you tell me where your country is? I want to take my sister and mother to your place. We always don’t have enough to eat.”

Zhang Liang shook his head and said, “My country is too far from Paris~www.wuxiax.com~you can’t go.”

The little boy hurriedly grabbed Zhang Liang’s cloak and said, “I am not afraid of far, sir, really, I am not afraid of far, Emily can’t walk, I can carry her on his back.”

Zhang Liang took out five livres from his arms and handed them to the little boy, “Take it, you can eat enough with money. My country is too far away. It takes a year to reach by boat. You can’t go.” .”

The little boy did not accept the money, but lowered his head in disappointment.

Zhang Liang rubbed the boy’s soft blond hair and said, “With this money, you, your mother, and Emily will be able to eat.”

The little boy still did not take the money.

Qiao Yong slapped Zhang Liang on the back and said, “You gave him money, not to help him, but to kill him. Believe it or not, as long as this kid leaves our sight, he will die immediately!”
