my wife is a consul

Chapter 457 is true and false
1500's terrace garden, in the swimming pool, the breeze ruffles the clear water, which is like a dream under the night lights.

Next to the parasol, the colorful flower garden, Lu Ming was lazily lying on the recliner, flipping through a letter.

It was the announcement of the civil strife in Anshan, but it seemed that peasant riots and even military mutiny often occurred in Anshan, and all parties in the Northern Territory were used to it. In the public board of directors, this civil strife did not arouse any discussion.

Obviously, it looks very powerful, involving three Taoists, and even one Taoist Yin had his head cut off and hung on the city gate to show the public.

It is also difficult to say what the nature of this civil strife is. There are refugees, landlord militias, and big soldiers who are owed wages.

Looking at Lu Ming shaking his head, Anshan is like a Shura field, with constant wars and chaos. The common people living in it probably have the greatest extravagant hope that they will not encounter wars in the new year, and they can live in peace and stability for a year, rather than food and clothing. This luxury problem of not having enough food and clothing.

After putting it down, he picked up another letter.

Just as he was watching, Lu Ming suddenly turned his head and said with a smile, "Grandma Long, are you still awake?"

Standing beside her with low brows and obedient eyes was Granny Tuolong.

"Master, don't stay up late, Empress Liuli has warned this old slave!" Granny Tuolong's face was serious.

Lu Ming had no choice but to come back from Roswell, where he celebrated his 22nd birthday.

According to what Liuli and Hanzhu told Bizhu, his life has entered a new stage. This year and next two years, he must pay special attention to health preservation, not stay up late, and ensure five hours of sleep every day.

To put it in a mysterious and mysterious way, it seems that the dragon has shed its scales and transformed for the first time, and it doesn't know what to do.

But it is true that just after my birthday, I seem to be tired all of a sudden, falling on the pillow and sleeping for ten or eight hours.

"Okay, don't watch it! Go back to your room and rest!" Lu Ming got up.

Only then did Granny Tuolong breathe a sigh of relief, and a gratified expression appeared on her face. The master treated her with a faint sense of respect for her elders, and she knew it clearly in her heart. She was grateful and felt warm.

……

Entering the magnificent dormitory, Lu Ming was startled. In front of the golden curtain of the luxurious moon bed, stood two magnificent figures. They were Mrs. Audrey and Mrs. Britney. They were both wearing gorgeous black gauze dresses, and their faces were full of embarrassment. color.

Granny Tuolong followed Lu Ming, and said at this time: "Master, their lives are like fire, and this old slave sees that it is the time when their lives are burning, and they can warm the feet of the master."

Lu Ming coughed, and the glass was blowing. In the past two years, I need a body with vigorous life to keep my feet warm when I sleep, because my feet are the root of my divine body, and my transformation starts with my feet.

Probably the kind of foot-warming girl in the previous life, the kind who would hold her feet in her arms when she was sleeping.

But isn't that the same as nonsense?

"Forget it!" Lu Ming waved his hand, suddenly startled.

Instead, they caught a glimpse of palm-sized holes in the lower abdomen of Audrey and Britney's black gauze nightdresses, exposing a piece of snow-white skin.

Obviously, that was the portal for him to step in.

He hurriedly turned his eyes away, and said to Granny Tuolong, "Take them! I told you, no need!"

Born under the red flag and raised in the new society, even if the thinking has been corroded a lot nowadays, it is too bullying and humiliating. I am afraid that it is better than this kind of humiliation to occupy them.

Seeing the master's stern tone, Granny Tuolong didn't dare to insist, and said in a low voice: "Yes, master, please always soak your feet, and these two fire girls will wash your feet and dredge the meridians."

"No need, I can make it myself!" Lu Ming looked at the camel dragon, "Stop talking about it."

"Since the master doesn't like them, the old slave will go to look for them tomorrow. In the master's mansion, her two lives are the most prosperous, and the others are a little weaker, so they can be used reluctantly..." Granny Tuolong felt a little regretful , Feet-warming fire girl, the best life is hot enough, like it or not, it doesn't matter, it's not a personal maid, let alone a concubine, even gender doesn't matter that much, right?It is true that there are men who are the lives of the fire girls.

Lu Ming waved his hand: "You guys go!"

Seeing that Mrs. Audrey and Mrs. Britney didn't dare to move, but I don't know why they were frightened by the mother-in-law. They are not immortal. The most tragic thing about people is that they can't survive or die.

Audrey and the others have experienced that terrifying dungeon, and after thinking about it, they know what such a nightmare is like.

Lu Ming looked at Granny Tuolong.

The camel dragon mother-in-law waved helplessly, and Audrey and Britney left as if they were pardoned.

……

In the study in the morning, Lu Ming stretched his waist, feeling very energetic.

Every time I go back to Montenegro, I feel like I've been recharged, not to mention that this time I'm going to Roseville to celebrate my birthday and reunite with my daughters.

"Master, how do you feel?" Grandma Tuolong stood beside the desk like a ghost, her face full of concern.

"Very good!" Lu Ming picked up the letter and read it.

"Master, it's not like Huo Nu warms her feet every day..."

Lu Ming looked at her: "Isn't that what you're looking for?"

"Oh, you can't hide anything from the master." Grandma Tuolong apologized, "This old slave chose the fire girl for the master. I found out about it by accident yesterday. Well, this is what the Western slave named Margaret told me." Hand over a few Page paper note, and said with a smile: "The master is indeed the destiny. The four Western slaves, as well as the Pei family and the Zou family, are all the fate of the fire girl, as if God prepared it for the master."

Lu Ming didn't bother to pay attention to her. He picked up the paper and read it. He was careless at first, but after a few glances, his expression became serious.

It was Margaret who confessed that her husband was actually a business partner with the opium king James, but because of his reputation, her husband secretly invested in James' property.

The opium business in Ansan and Ansan provinces was originally controlled by her husband. The operators remitted the money to an account at Fira Bank in the Central District. That account, she knew, had a security code, and, at Fira Bank In one of the safes, the contact information of the opium distributors in the Ansan Province controlled by her husband are kept.

"Anshan's opium business..." Lu Ming pondered. As for Margaret's confession, the safe also contained gold bars hidden by her husband. Millions of gold bars, for me today, can't inspire any excitement at all, and it's better than nothing.

"Call Margaret." Lu Ming gestured.

Tobacco and other drugs have destroyed many families in the Northern Territory, where they have not been explicitly banned.

The education in the previous life has instinctively disgusted and disliked drug dealers and drug lords.

However, in fact, even if the so-called opium king James is punished, then there will be new James emerging.

How to make the governors of the four provinces of the Northern Territory feel that drugs are a danger to their rule, rather than the wealth brought by high taxes, is the fundamental solution.

As far as I am concerned, if I can gain some benefits during this period, it will be even more powerful.
