Although he suffered from the snub of the Emperor of the Han Empire, Baron Camosiddo did not seem to take it to heart at all, and for several days in a row, he was in a good mood and in good spirits, and every day in addition to the necessary and routine going to the Emperor's palace to deliver papers, he has been wandering around the brothels in Yangzhou City.

The only thing to be thankful for is that His Excellency the Baron has a very good family background, and he also has an annuity of more than 100,000 francs a year, so although he is in a foreign country, he has plenty of money in his bag, and it is not lonely to live in this world of 'flowers' and 'flowers'.

In fact, he had been mentally prepared for the cold reception he suffered this time. You must know that although France is a famous European power, but it is only on the land of Europe, if out of the European ground, to the sea, the kingdom's army is mostly only suffocated, Camosicdo, as an enthusiastic and unrestrained patriot, has been worried about this matter, in today's world, to be popular in the world outside Europe, it still depends on the power of warships and cannons, and the French Navy has not been able to make a name for itself in Europe, which cannot but be said to be a very regrettable thing.

This time he came to China with the Spanish "Bavarian beer keg", and Camosicdo always felt a little lost, although the fat man had been close to him, trying to form an offensive and defensive alliance like the "European Front", but each time he was met with the cold and ruthless rejection of the proud Parisian man, and there was nothing surprising about this matter, because in the Thirty Years' War not long ago, France and Spain had been fighting to the death, and the feud between the two sides had reached an all-time highCamosiddo even believed that if the news of his arrival in China with the Bavarian beer barrel reached Paris, there would be rumors that he was a "traitor" the next day.

A dangerous person like a fat man, Camosicdo can't dodge, how can he still move forward?!

In fact, his mission this time is also a bit boring, not so much the Kingdom of France sent an ambassador, but rather the Kingdom of Paris sent a certain miscellaneous person, the current King Louis XIV has degenerated from the former "Sun King" into a drunkard and a 'sexual' pervert, in addition to boasting in front of the 'women', is to hold grand banquets, hunting and the like' The chaotic meaningless and very money-burning activities, coupled with the huge national debt owed in many wars before, the current government has long been struggling on the verge of bankruptcy, so in the current situation, the first and only task of the kingdom is to find money.

Frankly, just a week before Carmoxido received the mission to China, he didn't even know where China was on the globe, and the only idea left in his mind was that there was money in that place.

This should be some kind of well-intentioned prejudice, and the initiator may be the Roman dictator Caesar, because the Roman boss has long been known as the European spokesperson for Chinese silk brands, and he is followed by a large number of vague sycophants and followers, and after the 'Mongolian' ancients went west, a Venetian guy named Marco 'Bo' Luo is blowing nonsense' Ran'Kan wrote a fantasy of another continent, and then swept Europe, which roughly means that it tells the story of a destitute Italian and his subordinates who went to the East to learn scriptures, and finally became an official and made a fortune under the last adventure.

Historically, the book has had extremely bad consequences in Europe, at least misleading most Europeans into forming a correct view of China, but it has already happened, and everything is beyond control.

It must be said that poor His Excellency Baron Camosiddo, as well as his king, poor King Louis XIV, King of France, were also victims of this book. After the terrible humanitarian catastrophe that occurred on the Iberian Peninsula, the whole of Europe was like an earthquake, and the ferocious Oriental Yankees and the barbaric and cruel North African pirates staged a live-action version of the Trojan Horse Massacre in full view of everyone, which frightened the whole of Europe.

In fact, from the time of distant Greek mythology to the present day, this is the first direct threat posed by the Easterners to the western hinterland. Even the ancient legion of the 'Mongolian' ancient army, which was famous in the past, was not as sudden and jaw-dropping as this time.

At a time when the whole of Europe was in turmoil, His Majesty King Louis XIV, who had always been known for his long-term vision and grandeur, immediately realized that this might be an opportunity for the Kingdom of France.

Leaving aside all the terms of official documents, the order of this derivation process should be: the Chinese are rich - the French are poor - the Chinese and the Spaniards are at war - the war between the French and the Spaniards has just ended - the Chinese sphere of influence is in Asia - France has become the new European hegemon after defeating the Habsburgs in the Thirty Years' War - the Chinese are seeking profits from maritime trade - the French are suffering from the inability to develop colonies.

It's so wonderful, if this can't be an alliance, then under what circumstances can an alliance be formed?!

Distance was not a problem, and position was not: Louis XIV had no plans to invade the East for the time being, and he did not think at all that the Chinese would run to the West to compete with him for European hegemony.

However, the only regret is that before this, France and China had never had any kind of official contact, and even the monarchs of the two countries themselves had difficulty finding a translator in China who could understand Chinese or French.

Of course, in the face of interests, everything is not a problem.

Therefore, under such circumstances, the young master Quasimodo, who had always been "born in a family of foreign 'friends', had a good image, and had a funny conversation" in the Parisian society, was recommended to Louis XIV by the noble 'women' in the court, and with the attitude of giving it a try, Louis XIV immediately made a decision, and immediately gave Quasimodo the title of ambassador for foreign affairs, and ordered him to set off for China immediately to seek goodwill from the East.

Just when His Excellency the Count of Kefir of Spain was dejected and dejected, His Excellency Baron Quasimodo was like a fish in water in Yangzhou, and his mission was very different from that beer barrel, and there was no pressure on his body at all.

If there is a simple explanation, then Quasimodo's mission this time is like: France reaches out from afar and greets: "Hi! Hello man, my name is France! ”

Then we look forward to China's response: "Hello, my name is China!" ”

Then the two sides shook hands, and the Baron's mission was accomplished.

During this period, Baron Quasimodo even had another great ambition: as the first foreign ambassador to visit China, after careful research, he discovered the different styles of Eastern "women" and "sexuality" in the West, and summed up a set of practical theories of considerable academic value.

However, there is no feast in the world, and Baron Quasimodo, who had been partying in Yangzhou City for several days, finally got the news from the emperor's palace, and an official of the Ministry of Rites of the Han Empire invited him to the palace with a very polite 'kiss'.

Quasimodo keenly noticed that the officials of the Ministry of Rites who had come to invite him this time were very different from the officials who had escorted and received him on the previous occasion, and that their rank seemed to be much higher—after so many days, he finally understood that the rank of Chinese political officials was based on the color of their clothes and the embroidery of the front and back of their chests The officials who had been in charge of receiving him before were mostly petty officials who were not in the middle of the stream, and their attitudes were extremely rough, with a dead face at all times, and an arrogant attitude, as if they owed him tens of thousands of francs.

But this time the official was very different, not only was he extremely fluent in Dutch, but his attitude was also very polite, and Camosiddo immediately concluded that these officials must have received special instructions from the upper echelons of the Han Empire.

However, why the Han Empire did this Baron Quasimodo is a little 'scratching', according to his contact with the Chinese these days, it can be said that in this country, almost no one has heard of the reputation of the Kingdom of France, and most of the more well-known here are the Netherlands, Spain, England, Russia, etc., and even the name of the small Portugal is very loud, while the poor European hegemon, the extremely powerful Kingdom of France, has been reduced to a garbage country here.

Unlike that meeting with the Spanish ambassador, Lin Feng's attitude towards receiving Baron Quasimodo was more casual, and the location was also placed in a small 'flower' garden in the palace, and even the scene was not very formal, with a few plates of wine and food on the desk in front of him, and a 'hairy' puppy lying on his feet.

In fact, about the matter of France, Lin Feng himself felt very sudden, in fact, he never thought that France, far away on the other side of the ocean, would suddenly send an envoy over, you must know that in the current China, it can almost be said that it is not in the same plane as the other party, neither has fought nor passed the news, and even the ocean trade is almost none, at this time to send the envoy over, is it really to say: "Long admiration, long admiration"?!

But what Louis XIV Lin Feng had heard of, but for a long time he had always thought that it was a kind of wine, and it seemed to be more expensive, a kind of pickle girl killer, itself roughly meaning like Nokia, Mercedes-Benz, Wal-Mart and other nouns, but he never thought that it was actually a person, and it was also a king.

Just before Camosiddo came in, he was sighing and thinking: I didn't expect Louis XIV to be a person, it's really the biggest in the world, it's all strange.

Quasimodo's image made Lin Feng quite satisfied, from the other party, he finally found a hint of Hollywood blockbuster feeling, although he has met a lot of Europeans so far, but unfortunately except for Rick who gradually looks familiar with him and doesn't feel anything, the others really don't look like people, all over the body'hair', a strange smell, the skin is not white at all, and even the height is short, in short, there is no white appearance, and there is almost no way to match the foreigner in his impression.

But this Quasimodo has a bit of a Hollywood blockbuster male lead, and he stared at each other in a daze, until Quasimodo finished saluting, and it suddenly dawned on him: no wonder this kid looks so familiar, this guy looks really similar to the blacksmith son of the pirate in "Pirates of the Caribbean" - wrong, not an elephant, it's just like a mold poured out.

Quasimodo was stunned and 'touched' his nose, and unconsciously 'touched' the wig on his head with his backhand, and secretly looked at the dress, shirt, and leather boots on his body, feeling that he really couldn't find a flaw, he bowed slightly in embarrassment, and coughed, "Your Majesty the Honorable King......

"Oh! …… cough, cough...... Ha ha!! Ah! ......" Lin Feng slapped his big 'thigh', "Baron Quasimodo?!" ”

"Yes, greetings to Your Majesty, Appraiser of the Eastern Empire, Messenger of His Majesty King Louis XIV of France, Hereditary Baron Quasimodo!" Quasimodo had to repeat his previous words again, stroking his chest and bowing, "Being received by you is the proudest thing in my life!" ”

"Where, where, polite, polite!!" Lin Feng smiled and pointed to the escort seat in front of him, "Quasimodoqing, you're welcome, please take a seat!" ”
