After Qin Tian arrived in London, he stayed at the hotel prepared by the British side, took a short rest, and took time to have a brief meeting with the German ambassador to the United Kingdom. www.biquge.info learned some recent developments in Britain from the ambassador to the United Kingdom.

In the evening, Prince George held a grand welcome dinner for Qin Tian's arrival at Buckingham Palace, which was attended by British military and political officials, nobles and celebrities, as well as envoys or representatives of various countries who arrived in Britain first.

Prince George left the dinner for only half an hour to prepare for Edward VII's funeral and his rank ceremony, and Prince Edward accompanied the guests on his behalf.

The young Prince Edward was obviously unable to attract everyone's attention. In contrast, Qin Tiancai really became the focus of the dinner.

As the crown prince of the German Empire, Qin Tian is not very old, only twenty-two years old, in the eyes of everyone, this is already quite young. What's more, Qin Tian also holds the wealth of the country, which makes him even more eye-catching. I don't know how many aristocratic ladies and ladies want to climb into his bed, even if it's just a one-night joy, that's what they have to look forward to.

It's just that among these noble ladies and ladies, there is no shortage of beautiful women. But Qin Tian is a person with a habit of cleanliness, and unlike those princes of the British royal family, he doesn't like buses. In his eyes, there was only Princess Gondelinde. In comparison, the rest of the people are just vulgar fans.

One after another, the aristocratic ladies and ladies took the initiative to invite Qin Tian to dance, but after being refused, no one continued to try. After all, they are people with status, so they naturally don't want to be slapped in the face again and again.

"Good evening, Your Highness Oscar. I really envy Your Highness, it has become the focus of the whole dinner. But I have not heard many ladies and ladies complain that His Highness is a person who does not understand amorous feelings. A middle-aged man with a beautiful mustache walked over with a wine glass.

"Your Excellency, good evening." Qin Tian knew this person, he was Germany's most loyal ally, the crown prince of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, Archduke Ferdinand, who was also an extremely tragic figure.

A few years later, this crown prince, whose heart is higher than the sky, will become the fuse of the world war. And his ambition will also die because of his death. The mighty Austro-Hungarian Empire will disintegrate because of this war.

Of course, Qin Tian knew all this, but he wouldn't remind Archduke Ferdinand. Germany and Austria-Hungary were close allies, but this was because both sides were under enormous external pressure, which forced them to huddle together for warmth. If the outcome of the war had been rewritten and Germany had won the war, would Germany and Austria-Hungary still be close allies in the future? The European continent is too small to accommodate two large countries.

What's more, Archduke Ferdinand was likewise an ambitious man. Qin Tian didn't want Germany to defeat Britain and France, and then have another ambitious power by his side. In this case, Germany, having won the world war, would have to deal with an ambitious ally. In comparison, Qin Tian thought that it was better for Archduke Ferdinand to die.

"Your Highness, look over there, the Russian Foreign Minister and the French Foreign Minister have come together. And the Italians, too, are with them. This makes me wonder what the Italians stand for! Archduke Ferdinand said.

Qin Tian couldn't help frowning, the Italians were two-faced, he knew this very well. Even on the occasion of this, the presence of the Italian Foreign Minister with the French Foreign Minister and the Russian Foreign Minister does not mean anything. However, this is enough to be alarming.

"Your Excellency, you are too sensitive. Perhaps, they are just ordinary small talk. ”

Archduke Ferdinand smiled and did not continue the subject.

After a few words, Archduke Ferdinand left with his glass. The age difference between him and Qin Tian is twenty-five years, and it is difficult for the two of them to have a common language.

Qin Tian left before the dinner was over, Feng? Kidren? Vahit used this time to find out the situation.

In the next few days, Qin Tian mainly visited the attractions around London.

On May 20, the funeral of Edward VII took place. The whole of London burst into tears. It can be seen that the British royal family in this era undoubtedly has a great influence among the British people. There are indeed many people who love the royal family. Far from a hundred years later, many Britons have already treated the royal family as a parasite.

The people who saw off Edward VII included almost all the major powers of the whole world, such as the German Crown Prince, the Austria-Hungary Crown Prince, the Italian Prince, the Swedish Prince, the Dutch Envoy, the French Foreign Minister, the Russian Foreign Secretary, the US Secretary of State, the Japanese Foreign Minister, and so on.

"If Britain were not the world hegemon, the death of Edward VII would probably not have been paid attention to by so many people! But, because of the hegemony of Great Britain, everything is different! Qin Tian sighed in his heart. This also strengthened his determination to let Germany take advantage of this war to overthrow Britain and replace it as the world hegemon.

Prince George's enthronement, three days after Edward VII's funeral. In the presence of British cabinet ministers, celebrities, representatives of various countries and envoys of various countries in the United Kingdom, the archbishop of the diocese of England presented Prince George with a crown symbolizing the British throne. Prince George, officially became the King of England, that is, King George V.

The next day, everyone headed to Portsmouth Military Harbour for a grand parade by the British Navy to celebrate the accession of George V to the throne. Warships from various countries also arrived at the Portsmouth military port from Grace.

Outside the military port in Portsmouth, hundreds of British Navy warships passed in front of the cruise ship of George V and others, including the British Navy's newest batch of dreadnoughts. The 'St. Vincent' class, the 'Bellerophon-class' battleships, the 'Invincible class' battlecruisers, the 'Dreadnought' battleships, all of them are not bad.

In addition, there are more than thirty ex-dreadnoughts. Although, after the advent of dreadnoughts, the combat effectiveness of these former dreadnoughts was greatly questioned. However, the dozens of former dreadnoughts of the British Navy still have considerable combat power.

The parade is more shocking than the military parade. In this era, only the Royal Navy of the British Empire was able to hold such a shocking parade. Of course, the reason why the British held the parade was to celebrate the accession of George V to the throne, but on the other hand, it was not to deter other countries. For example, ambitious Germany.
