After seeing an extra bronze medal on Cheng Ying's body and the traditional Chinese characters engraved on the bronze medal, everyone present except Ye Wei was stunned.
"Huh? I've heard of Baihu, but what is this Beizhen Fusi?" After reading the text on the card, Peng Hu, who was outspoken, did not hesitate to be the first to ask questions, and other people on the side were in astonishment. There was no answer for the time being. After a moment, there was a period of silence. He Fei and Zhao Ping were the first to come to their senses. They both put their hands into their pockets. Then two bronze medals that were almost the same as those in Cheng Ying's hands were taken out. It is still engraved with the name of Fusi Hundred Households in the North Town of Ming Dynasty.
Similarly, after Cheng Ying and other three people demonstrated, the other executors followed closely and took out a sudden extra bronze medal from their pockets.
After a long time, Zhao Pingcai was the first to stare at the bronze medal in his hand while nodding his head and saying to himself: "The year is 1643 AD, and the identity of the visitor from the East turned out to be a Jin Yiwei... Cursing this identity arrangement is really reasonable... …”
That's right. If everyone was a little confused about all this at the beginning, then when they come back to their senses, unless the history is really bad to a certain extent, most newcomers and veterans will understand and understand this bronze medal and The meaning of the text is, yes, AD 1643 coincided with the end of the Middle Ages in Europe, and country Z in the far east happened to be in the Ming Dynasty. People who know more about history will know that country Z in 1643 also coincided with the invasion of the Qing Dynasty, and China The land is in flames of war. In addition to resisting the invasion of the Manchu and Qing barbarians in Liaodong, country Z also has to deal with the raging bandits in the Central Plains. The two-front battle is exhausted. Because the domestic bandits have restrained a large number of the country's troops, country z cannot concentrate its forces to deal with the Manchus. This directly caused the army to retreat steadily in countless battles with the Manchu and Qing invaders. The huge territory of country Z was gradually encroached by the Manchu and Qing Dynasties, and the country was about to be destroyed. Although these are digressions, in any case, the era of 1643 It is indeed the Ming Dynasty. As for what is Beizhen Fusi? Anyone who knows a bit about history knows that that is the official nickname of Jinyiwei.
The identities assigned to a group of executors by a curse that is so powerful that it is almost omnipotent are very reasonable. On the surface, it is a little abrupt, but after thinking about it, it is reasonable. If these people do not have official and reasonable identities, how can they be qualified to enter the Marquis? What about this kind of family, which is considered a high-level aristocrat in the UK?
"only……"
After muttering to himself, Zhao Ping frowned, and then a strange thought came to his mind again.
That is to say, even if you are a royal guard, you still can't get on the stage in front of a nobleman of the Marquis level. Even if you can enter the manor, you are not qualified to talk to the Marquis. The reason is very simple. Everyone knows about this supernatural incident and the owner of the manor, Marquis Mel. There must be a great connection. If the executor wants to solve the supernatural incident, he must have the cooperation of the Marquis. If the identity given by the curse is too low, how can the Marquis listen to them? How can we cooperate with them? Let alone listen to them, they may not even be qualified for dialogue.
Don't forget that the era you are currently living in is no longer a modern era where everyone is equal. This is ancient Britain, which is as focused on status and hierarchy as the ancient country Z.
(Huh? Could it be...)
Somehow, if Zhao Ping, who thought of this, was still in a state of confusion, then He Fei, who also thought of this, slowly turned his gaze to Ye Wei under the influence of some thought.
Of course Ye Wei understood the meaning of He Fei's gaze. Then she reached into her pocket and took out a waist badge made of gold until she saw the words engraved on the gold medal clearly. Everyone present suddenly realized:
In the field of vision, the words engraved on the gold medal in Ye Wei's hand read:
The eldest princess Wenxuan of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Wei.
Unexpectedly, the identity assigned to Ye Wei by the curse was actually a princess! Moreover, she is the emperor's sister, the eldest princess, and her status is extremely high. With this status, even the king of England must treat her with courtesy, let alone a marquis.
This is an easy explanation. A princess from the Eastern Empire came to Europe with a group of personal guards. Is there any better explanation than this?
Of course, no matter what the purpose of the princess of the Eastern Empire came to Europe, the above real history will never happen, but please don’t forget that this is a cursed space after all, a mission world different from the real world. You can It is understood as a parallel space, and the purpose of the curse is only to give a group of executors a reasonable identity that can successfully perform tasks. As for why they are here? Who cares? Veterans still know these things well, and no one will delve into them.
"Damn it! It turns out you are the real owner, Ye Wei! You are actually a princess, haha, now it's better. I was worried about how we were going to get in at first!" Sure enough, after figuring out the whole story, I was originally Peng Hu, who had a tangled face, immediately felt relieved like He Fei and others.
It turns out that with the noble status of a princess, there is no problem in communicating with nobles like the Marquis, at least in terms of status.
As for Ye Wei, who understands the assignment of identities better than other executors, she has never suspected that her identity is different. She first looked down at the time on her watch, then frowned and reminded everyone: "It has been nearly 10 minutes since we entered the mission, everyone. Let’s enter the manor as soon as possible. The mission requires us to stay within the manor within 5 days. If we continue to hesitate, I’m worried that the curse will probably punish everyone. Let’s go there first. If we have anything to say, we can talk about it after entering the manor. .”
With Ye Wei's urging, everyone did not dare to hesitate, and then the nine executors walked collectively towards the manor under the leadership of Ye Wei.
The distance of a few hundred meters was not long, and it was not an exaggeration to say that it was fleeting. Everyone quickly arrived at the gate of the manor. As expected, as soon as they arrived at the gate of the manor, they were stopped by two guards guarding the door.
As a side note, the British soldiers in the 17th century were not dressed in red like the British soldiers in the Opium War that Chinese people remember. Instead, they wore a pair of classical-style semi-iron armor paired with gray military uniforms. The weapons used in their hands were also relatively simple. Primitive matchlock gun, back to the topic, when they saw a group of strangers arriving at the gate of the manor, the two guards were stunned at first, especially when they saw that the appearance of the group of people in front of them was completely different from that of Westerners, their expressions immediately turned into surprise! It was obvious that the two Englishmen, who were born and raised in Europe and had never left Europe, were stunned for a moment, and felt confused when they saw the group of oriental faces in front of them, which looked very different from them.
Although they were surprised, this kind of surprise lasted very short. It seemed that they had expected this. After carefully looking at everyone, the two guards did not ask questions or drive away strangers in accordance with their duties. Instead, they gathered together. They exchanged words in low voices, and after a while, one of the guards, who was as bearded as Peng Hu, took the initiative to step forward and politely asked everyone: "Excuse me, are these Ming nobles who came here from the far east? ?”
Ming Dynasty?
As soon as these words came out, most of the executors hesitated slightly, but Ye Wei, who was more knowledgeable, did not show any signs of confusion. Instead, he walked up to the bearded guard and replied with a smile: "Sir, you are right, we are indeed you." The guest from the Ming Dynasty, as mentioned by the owner, Marquis Mel."
While speaking, he also took out the gold medal representing the princess' status in his hand.
Ye Wei was so smart. She had already understood something in her heart when she saw the exchanges between the two guards. Since the other party could ask this question, it was very likely that he had received special instructions from the Marquis in advance, otherwise these two How could the guards be so respectful? She even guessed that the Marquis had already contacted her as a princess.
How dare the princess's waistband guards pick her up? Not to mention that they couldn't understand the Chinese characters on it, the appearance of the other party alone was enough to prove everything. In addition, the other party took the initiative to nod in recognition. Seeing this, the two of them were now sure that these people in front of them were definitely the oriental guests mentioned by the Marquis before. Ye Weigang just said, The two guards knelt down to Ye Wei and performed the highest ceremonial one-knee salute that can only be done to nobles above the earl. The scumbag-faced guard said respectfully: "So you are the one our Marquis mentioned. Her Royal Highness Princess Mingguo will be visiting the manor in the past few days."
It is also worth mentioning that the reason why the guards respected Ye Wei was not only due to her cursed princess status, but also due to their awe of the huge empire of country Z. In the mid-to-early 17th century, That is to say, in 1643, Country Z was in the Ming Dynasty. Unlike the Manchus who suffered national humiliation and humiliation in later generations, the Jiashen National Disaster that broke the backbone and self-confidence of the people of Country Z had not yet occurred, which really caused the people of Country Z to be completely looked down upon by the West. The Qing-Tatar Dynasty has not yet completely occupied Country Z, and the Opium War between the Qing Dynasty and the British Empire more than a hundred years later has not yet broken out. Therefore, in the eyes of Europeans today, the understanding of Country Z from the common people to the nobles is still It is a powerful oriental country, and its international status is even higher than that of European countries. Especially after experiencing the events of the Three Treasures eunuchs going to the West and the Ming Dynasty army defeating the powerful Portuguese army in Macau a few years ago, the international status of the Z people can be said to have reached vertex.
The bearded-faced guard greeted him respectfully, and the other guard pushed the door open without hesitation, and then hurried into the manor, apparently to report.
Seeing his companion going in to report, although he had no doubts about Princess Ye Wei's identity, out of duty, after getting up, the Hu Za guard continued to ask: "Um, Your Royal Highness Princess Mingguo, who are these people behind you... …Are they all your servants and guards?”
It turned out that the two gatekeepers had only learned from the Marquis that an Eastern princess would be coming in the near future, but they did not tell them the specific number of people coming. In fact, if you think about it carefully, it was right. Since it was a princess, it was impossible for her to come alone. Aren't the only servants or guards who can stay with the princess in a distant place? But just to be on the safe side, that's why the bearded-faced guard asked tentatively.
The stubble-faced guard asked casually, but unexpectedly it aroused someone's dissatisfaction on the spot. Seeing that the stubble-faced guard who looked like himself doubted everyone's identity. Others were fine, but Peng Hu was furious and did not wait for Ye Wei to answer. , the bald man took two steps forward and took out his "Jinyiwei" waistband, stretched it out and waved it in front of the bearded-faced guard who couldn't understand Chinese characters. At the same time, he didn't even think that the guard with a bearded face was like himself. Qingfen scolded him: "How dare you! I am a dignified guard of hundreds of households. How dare you, a small guard, to question my identity? I think you are tired of living! A guy like you, who doesn't look like a good person at first glance, is placed in our place." The country will definitely be taken to Caishikou and beheaded.
"Jinyiwei? I don't look like a good person?"
Of course the guard didn't know what the Jinyiwei was, let alone a little guard with little knowledge like him. It is estimated that even his owner, Marquis Meyer, might not necessarily know about the Jinyiwei. After all, the European countries were still not interested in country Z at this period. I understand very well. Even so, the bald man's scolding really stunned the shag-faced guard. The reason was not that he was frightened by the identity of the Jin Yiwei, but... the person in front of him looked less like a good person than himself. This guy actually has the nerve to say that he doesn't look like a good person! ?
Fortunately, Ye Wei immediately clarified that the others were indeed escorts, otherwise the bearded-faced guard would have almost mistaken the bald man, who looked more like a bandit than a guard, for a gangster.
The rest of the matter was much simpler. After confirming the identities of all visitors, the bearded-faced guard did not dare to neglect, and hurriedly extended his hands to Ye Wei and other executors respectfully:
"Your Highness the Princess and your guards please."
Ye Wei still smiled and nodded. She did not walk in immediately, but took out a golden bean from her pocket and handed it to the bearded guard.
"Ah! This, this is...thank you for the reward, Your Highness, Princess!"
The guards thanked him repeatedly, but Ye Wei said nothing and led everyone straight into the manor.
Watching the other party enter the manor, and seeing the group of Orientals drifting away, and seeing no one around, the bearded-faced guard first put the golden beans in front of his mouth and bit it with his teeth, then said to himself with a smile on his face: "Oh, God, no wonder I heard someone say that the Eastern Ming Dynasty is the richest country in the world. This is indeed true..."
Putting aside the guard, in the manor, a group of executioners were currently walking towards the luxurious building in the distance.
only……
As they got closer to the building, and as they got closer to the center of the manor, during the walk, everyone's originally relaxed hearts became tense again, and even the tension and fear became stronger the closer they got to the house!
There is no need to explain this. After all, no one is a fool. In fact, everyone who has watched the video preview knows that the luxurious building in front is not a good place. It is also the building in the video in all likelihood. There is something hidden there. A locust, a locust that can easily kill anyone!
Perhaps in order to ease the tension, unlike Zhao Ping who was expressionless all the way, He Fei, who had not spoken for a long time, picked the right moment to talk to everyone who had nothing to say: "I didn't expect that the mission actually arranged for Sister Ye Wei to be a princess. Think about it carefully. That's right, among our group, only Sister Ye Wei is the most suitable to play the princess, both in appearance and temperament. Haha, just now I was worried that if the mission only assigned identities to Sister Ye Wei and not to others, then we What should these people do? Is it possible that they have to make up their own identities?"
Not to mention, what He Fei said had a certain decompression effect, and Peng Hu was very cooperative and just grinned and said: "Hey, if I can really make up my own identity, I don't want to be some bullshit Jinyiwei. After all, Most of the guards in movies and TV shows are not good people. I actually want to be a general, tsk tsk. Anyway, my majestic body and domineering looks are very suitable. I guess no one will believe me if I am not a general."
"Hey! Are you the one who returns the general? I think you should become the eunuch-in-chief!" Sure enough, as soon as Peng Hu said this, Cheng Ying, who never forgets to attack the bald man, immediately curled her lips and mocked him, Somewhat surprisingly, as soon as Cheng Ying finished teasing, Peng Hu did not get angry. Instead, he touched his bare head as if he remembered an interesting thing and turned to Cheng Ying and said:
"What? The chief eunuch? No matter how you look at it, my majestic figure is not suitable for playing that kind of role. Let me tell you, apart from you Cheng Ying being the most suitable, we have another candidate here who is suitable for playing the role of the chief eunuch... …”
Peng Hu didn't say anything else, but those who were attentive would notice that the bald man glanced out of the corner of his eyes as he spoke, and involuntarily turned towards a man with glasses on the right side of the team.
While walking, Peng Hu and Cheng Ying, who have always been bold, argued with each other one after another. Unfortunately, the four newcomers who were performing a supernatural mission for the first time were collectively in a state of speechless silence. Most of them had nervous expressions. It was obvious that as a result of mission experience, They are zero. These people have neither the courage of Peng Hu and Cheng Ying nor the calmness of He Fei or Zhao Ping. As they get closer and closer to the building, they know that there is a worm hidden in the building. Frightened and uneasy, both Wei Jianyong and Wang Jin turned pale while walking, and Wang Huifang was sweating like she was about to enter the execution ground. Perhaps the only exception was Yao Fujiang. For some reason, at this moment, the young man's mind was blank, just like a basket. He walked leisurely with the team like a string puppet. On the surface, he looked much calmer than the other three, but if someone looked closely at his crotch area, he would be surprised to find...
At some point, the crotch area of the young man with a flat head became wet.
Let’s not talk about what the newcomers or other seniors think. At the front of the team, Ye Wei frowned and her face was complicated. Her whole person was shrouded in uneasiness, and she completely lost the calmness she had when talking to the guards before...
No wonder the female captain was nervous. In fact, except for Ye Wei who was taking the lead in the front row, every senior member of the team was feeling the same growing chill as Ye Wei. The closer they got to the building in front, the colder the feeling. The stronger it gets, the coldness is not a temperature change, but a deep coldness that only those with sensitive intuition can feel!
Gradually, as the distance kept getting closer, even Peng Hu and Cheng Ying, who deliberately kept the atmosphere lively, gradually silenced themselves under this huge pressure and stopped talking to each other.
because……
They arrived and arrived in front of the building.
And that locust, that mysterious locust that only appeared with one pair of hands in the video, is hiding in the building in front of you!
