Gordon shook his head like a rattle drum, "No, no, no... My dear Chief Steward, you have overestimated my abilities. I am only agreeing to be a knight in the Empire, and I have no way of affecting the Empire's politics! "

"The Prime Minister is in charge of the Cabinet, and all the work of the Empire cannot go around Grasso! Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Military, Ministry of Finance … These places are not something that I can move! "

"To use the Chinese saying, I don't have that much face, I can't do it!"

"To rely on the power of the British Empire to fight against the Prince Kung, honestly speaking, this is a little too much, making a big fuss out of nothing … British Empire is very easy to fight against a king of the Qing Nation! "

"But! How can we get a parliamentary mandate? Has His Majesty thought it through? The council is made up of multiple parties, and the system of checks and balances of power is not just for show! "

"To tell the truth, not to mention the Prime Minister, even if the great Queen were to speak, there would still be people in the Council who would vote against it!"

"British politics is different from the Qing Empire. We are not a monarch, we are a constitutional monarchy!"

Er Mao smiled and waved his hands, telling Gordon not to be agitated: "Don't say it like that, my lord. You still don't understand what I mean!"

"I'm not asking the British Government to step in, but you, my lord!"

"Huh?" Gordon was at a loss, "Oh my god! I'm getting more and more confused. Just what do you want me to do? Could it be … Hail, you want me to lead your troops? "

"Hiss …" Gordon inhaled a breath of cold air: "Could it be that His Majesty is about to activate a weapon to eliminate Prince Kung?!"

"Ai ai ai …" Hairy # 2 immediately covered Gordon's mouth with his hands, "My lord! You can eat whatever you want, but you can't say whatever you want! Right now, the most important thing for the His Majesty is for him to take back his rights peacefully, he is definitely not here for military purposes! "

"Right now, the military forces in the court are at the peak of their strength. It's not a one sided fight, so we have no chance of winning... What if we start a war and turn it into a pile of mud? "

"Has the Great Qing not fought enough battles in the past few years? Beijing Belt can't use blade soldiers anymore. Once the war is over, how can we industrialize it? How can we prune the railways? "

"That's right! That's what I'm worried about, so I hope for your majesty to calm down! "

Hairy # 2 smiled strangely and said, "I came out to greet you, but I just wanted to let you know in advance that I'm not confused when you go in to see me again!"

"Actually, what His Majesty needed your lordship to do was very simple. It was to activate your connections … Don't try to hide it from me, you have come to the Great Qing Dynasty to be an official, there is no way the British Empire doesn't give you permission! "

"If you don't have a secret mission, why would Major De Lanni come to the city gate to welcome you? "Don't be surprised, I understand this kind of thing!"

"After all, you have to protect the interests of the United Kingdom. With so much investment, as well as the construction of the railway, someone has to keep an eye on the implementation!" Whoever's money is not from the wind! "

"Pingbao will be giving His Majesty reinforcements? We do not believe that such a good thing could exist in the heavens! "

"To put it bluntly, the His Majesty and the British Investor are actually on the same boat. Although there is a gap in our goals, we have the same goal!"

"Long live hope for the country to become rich and powerful, hope for the government to make money, and the British investors also hope to make money through the Qing government's projects... We are the community of interests! "

"Now, someone has arrogantly come knocking on our door. Not only did he rob us of our money, but he also interrupted our plans to invest together!"

"You can endure it? Can the big merchants behind you bear with it? "

"Remember, when you enter the palace, you will answer according to this train of thought. The His Majesty has a mission for you!"

These words were said on the fatal point, Gordon's face immediately became unsightly, before he came to Great Qing, many of the great figures in the country had treated him to food.

Everyone only had one request, to make him desperately protect the interests of Investor. In the future, China's railway construction and industrialization process would be an extremely big contract worth tens of billions of silver taels!

Furthermore, each investment for a contract would allow him to continuously earn money for hundreds of years!

Whoever blocked everyone's path to becoming rich, was the public enemy of all European Investor. Gordon had to protect the interests of all English Investor!

The worry in Europe had turned into reality, the conservative factions that the Prince Kung represented had actually charged over! Gordon clenched his teeth until it made a cracking sound.

"My God! "These bandits are simply disregarding business ethics. How can they be so shameless!"

"Six hundred thousand silver taels. That is the blood and sweat of countless Investor s in England. He cannot take it away for nothing. For our common good, I know what to do! "

After receiving the promise, Mao nodded his head with a smile, "Then I am relieved, I will not waste your time, my family still have some important matters to take care of, please enter the palace!"

"Hmm? Didn't the steward come to meet me? "

"Haha …" Of course I am, of course I am here to welcome you, but after receiving you, I still have to go home … It's very important to have an operation at home! "

"Operation?" Gordon did not expect that the backward Great Qing would actually hear the name of the operation.

"What is it? Your Lordship doesn't believe it? So, you can come over to my house tonight and have a look... It's really an operation, and it's the most difficult craniotomy! "

Hairy # 2 left, leaving the astonished Gordon behind as he returned to Suzhou Lane.

As soon as he arrived at the door, he saw that the atmosphere was off. All the servants, servants, and maids in the house … All of them ran to the entrance of the main hall, looking at the eastern living room with nervous expressions on their faces.

Many girls' faces turned pale with fright!

"Why did you all run to the main entrance?" asked Mao.

"Ah, Chief Steward … "We're afraid …" All the servants kneeled down and said, "It's the Evil Doctor Huang in the capital, he's famous for stealing the corpses of the dead lunatics!"

"He wants to open the skull for Manager Man Shun... How terrible! Will this place become a haunted house? "

"Nonsense!" This was Xiyang's operation, how could it not be terrifying! Didn't I tell you countless times already? "Don't worry!"

But no matter what Hairy # 2 said, these servants did not dare to enter the second door. It was as if they were prepared to escape at any time.

The superstitions of the people in the late Qing were deeply rooted!

Er Mao shook his head. "Ai …"

At this moment, within the second door, the east wing, the main hall, had long since been renovated into an operating room!

This year, there was definitely no such thing as an aseptic operating room. However, in order to minimize the risk of failure, the operation room had been specially renovated. The flashy display tables had all been removed.

The room was brushed several times with lime, then with vinegar that had been boiled several times, and finally sprayed with high alcohol before the operation.

During the operation, the doors and windows were closed, and Evil Doctor Huang and his disciples changed into a new set of disinfection clothes. Only then did they start to open Man Shun's skull!
