Hearing this, there was a dead silence in the observation deck, which had a lively and harmonious atmosphere, and those Western envoys almost stopped their movements and turned their eyes to Edmund, the Indian viscount mentioned by Liang Pengfei. [Full text reading]

Edmund's careful liver made Liang Pengfei so frightened that he almost stopped jumping on the spot, and the reserved and elegant smile on his original face was as stiff as a plaster sculpture. After he came back to his senses, he immediately subconsciously hurriedly denied it: "No, no, no, dear Excellency, this is definitely slander, yes, it must be slander, our British Empire will never do such a thing that violates the integrity between countries......"

"Well, my honorable Mr. President, I am only speculating, and I have not even said that you are Britain, so why should you be so hasty to deny it?" The smile on Liang Pengfei's face still looked so gentle, but these words made the Western envoys present show a smile of joy and even schadenfreude.

was exposed by Liang Pengfei in front of him some things that he originally thought were very secret, and the expressions on the faces of several Britons present were difficult to see, but Liang Pengfei did not continue to dwell on this issue, but just smiled faintly: "Okay, it's time for the banquet, and I will talk to you about this matter in private, so there is no need to be so nervous." ”

"And you, dear Envoy of the United States of America, Mr. Fabio, I suppose this should be the first time we have met, right?" Liang Pengfei left behind the Brits, who were secretly relieved, but still frowning, and set his sights on the other one.

"Honorable Führer, on behalf of our Excellency the President of the United States of America and members of Congress, I extend my heartfelt congratulations to you on your assumption of the reign of this vast empire in the East." Fabio, the ambassador of the United States of America, did not dare to slack off, and quickly got up and saluted Liang Pengfei respectfully.

"Thank you, don't give me, I have one more thing, according to the news from my subordinates, why did your expedition from the United States of America appear within my territory and attack my army and people in the New World?" Liang Pengfei slowly took a bite of a scorched rib, the fat spilled down his lips, but his eyes were frighteningly cold.

"Honorable Führer, I think there must be some misunderstanding here, our expeditions from the United States of America are in search of new species and minerals in the New World, and it is not impossible for us to get lost in those familiar places, and occasionally appear in the territory of your Excellency the Führer, and I suppose that your Excellency the Führer will not destroy the diplomatic relations between our two countries because of this trivial matter?"

－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－

"As for the attack, honorable Führer, as a citizen of the United States of America, I can say responsibly that we, the citizens of the United States of America, are the most peace-loving human beings in the world, and that in every war we are forced to take up arms and resist. I believe that Edmund and other English gentlemen should know this best. Fabio shook his beautiful blonde wig and bowed slightly in the direction where the Englishmen were sitting.

"Mr. Fabio, what do you mean by this, do you want to cause a diplomatic dispute or a war?!" Staunton stood up and said loudly, glaring viciously at the damn Yankee.

Before Staunton could finish speaking, Lord Macartney had already stood up to stop this impulsive fellow, first bowed to Liang Pengfei humbly, and then looked at the American ambassador, and his loud voice resounded throughout the viewing platform. "Mr. Fabio, please do not deliberately distract your Excellency the Führer, for I am sure it is clear to those present that the United States of America was established with the help of many European nations, but they have never been grateful to those who have helped them, but have taken the opportunity to devour and occupy their colonies in the New World, and I really cannot think of any kind of credibility they can have."

The Europeans present were more or less thoughtful, and the Spanish governor and the envoy were even more in agreement, and the French envoy was equally indignant, and although they were hostile to the British, Lord Macartney's words did give them a deep understanding.

The expression of Fabio, the ambassador of the United States of America, who had just been triumphant, became ugly. "Sir, please do not change the subject, and besides, what evidence do you have of which colony our United States of America has invaded? You know, in every country, there will be some disobedient adventurers wandering around, and what they do can only be explained by their personal actions. ”

"Well, my friend, you do have a good eloquence, but what the truth is, I believe all of you here know it very well, and you don't have to bother to talk about it." Lord Macartney smiled and looked at the American ambassador with a hint of contempt.

"Good fellow, this old British man is really eloquent, and in one sentence, he put the Yankee on the cusp and diverted everyone's attention." Ni Ming, who was sitting not far from Liang Pengfei, couldn't help but secretly speak, Sun Shijie next to him took a piece of food and stuffed it into his mouth, and the smile on his face was still the same: "It's because this old boy is so powerful that our head of state didn't let this old guy leave." ”

"That's right, he is indeed too shrewd, and putting such a person back will be very detrimental to the young master's plan." Liang Shuisheng surveyed the earth, looked at the Macartney, and a cold light flashed in his eyes. Since Liang Pengfei pushed the Manchu political axe, his subordinates are also changing their names for him, originally called him an adult, and then because Liang Pengfei was not in a hurry to ascend the throne as the emperor, so Yiying people simply called him the head of state, and the descendants of the old Liang family are still called young masters.

Liang Pengfei secretly sneered in his heart while enjoying the food while admiring the ugliness of these self-proclaimed visitors from the civilized world, the purpose of these people coming here is not only to congratulate themselves, but more importantly, they all want to get greater benefits from it.

"This is a bunch of vicious dogs that go crazy when they smell stinky meat and bones." Liang Pengfei said to Bai Shusheng beside him.

It didn't take long for them to expose and quarrel with each other, because they finally noticed the attitude of Liang Pengfei, the host of the banquet, and finally had to sit back in their places awkwardly, talking about some elegant art and culture, to whitewash how civilized and elegant they were.

"Damn, how did the news get out?" In the post house near the observation deck, facing the beautiful scenery of the turbulent river and the sails as white as the wings of birds, Viscount Edmund looked so angry and depressed, after his predecessor committed suicide by swallowing opium, he became the chairman of the Board of Supervisors of the British East India Company, but the British East India Company is no longer as arrogant and wealthy as it was two years ago. What's more, a series of failures had left British parliamentarians and shareholders frustrated with the East India Company's actions.

It can be said that the East India Company has lost a lot of power today, especially the Prime Minister, William the Younger. Pete's series of actions turned him, the chairman of the Oversight Committee, who should have a lot of power in the colony, into almost an idle puppet.

The diplomats who had come to the East with Staunton from England were engaged in conspiracy activities right under his nose, and he was very worried because he knew very well that Liang Pengfei was not only shrewd, but also ruthless.

It's just that he didn't expect that not long after there was a move over there, Liang Pengfei actually learned the news, and based on what Liang Pengfei just said, he seemed to know a lot, which was what made him most angry.

"It must have been those dog mongrels who betrayed us, those damned cowards and money addicts, don't they know that we are working so that the whole West can have more say in the East?" Staunton rested the teacup in his hand heavily on the tea mat, and his tone was extremely resentful.

Lord Macartney, who was present at this high-sounding lie, remained silent, for he knew very well how shameless and greedy the country's politicians were, how their promises were like farts, and that no amount of words could whitewash the Empire's ambition to dominate the Indian continent once again.

"What do you think of this, my lord?" After Viscount Edmund vented, he saw Nastaunton's expression, and wanted to slaughter this guy, if he hadn't brought those arrogant diplomats, who thought that he had done things seamlessly, how could such a situation occur today.

"Don't try to explain or deny it, it's useless, the head of the East is far more shrewd than you think, and although I know that His Excellency the Prime Minister will do it for the good of the British Empire, I have to admit that it is a complete mistake for His Excellency the Prime Minister to deal with the Oriental Führer in the same way as he dealt with the savage and stupid natives. Because he is an adversary that we in the British Empire must concentrate on in order to be able to contend with. Lord Macartney sighed deeply.

"Your Excellency, I know that you are the best diplomat of the British Empire, and we will take your advice to heart, but the question now is, how do we solve this dilemma, and no one knows what terrible consequences this Führer will have if he is angry, you know, now he knows that our British Empire is plotting against his country." Staunton looked at Lord Macartney with a look of pistancy, hoping that he would give some answers to bring the dead back to life.

"Father, Your Excellency Lord Macartney, Mr. Chairman Edmund, Your Excellency our Führer wants to see the three of you." At this moment, the voice of a boy who was in the midst of puberty and changed his voice came from outside the door.
