Xu Qing took this eldest princess Victoria, and several female students led by Hu Ling around him, and went to the European continent. www.biquge.info Of course, of course, a few maids around Princess Victoria, this is not counted, this is not a role. The group chartered a luxury cruise ship and headed directly to Spain.

Spain is currently ruled by Queen Isabella, but this Queen Isabella is a tragedy!

"Hu Ling, this Queen Isabella inherited the throne when she was young, but her uncle rebelled on the grounds that women were not eligible to inherit. During the Frankfurt period in Europe, there was a customary law called the Salic Code, which stipulated that women did not have the right to inherit land, which was later extended to mean that women did not have the right to inherit the throne. But this is just an excuse, and this is just an excuse after all. ”

However, the rebellion was put down, and Queen Isabella succeeded in becoming king, but at that time the queen was still young and nominally regent by the Queen Mother. But then the Queen Mother ...... For some inconvenient reasons, the Queen Mother handed over power to a general who had contributed to the counterinsurgency, and then went to France. ”

"As far as I know, the current Queen Isabella should be fifteen years old, and most of them have just taken over the government."

Xu Qing knew that this Queen Isabella was actually a somewhat embarrassing person, because if nothing else, this Queen Isabella would be ready to get married, and her husband was a descendant of the Bourbon dynasty.

However, this Queen Isabella has not been very good in history, and she has had a leg with many men. However, this Queen Isabella is a little special, while he is having sex with other men, but he also feels deeply guilty about it, and often goes to nuns in the hope of getting solace in his soul.

"Hey, this Queen Isabella is also a poor person!" Xu Qing said with emotion.

Hu Ling asked, "Lord Xu Qing, why is this queen pitiful?" Since he is about to become pro-government and is ready to get married, why do you still say pitiful? ”

"Hehe, that is, her marriage ......" Xu Qing didn't say much.

Xu Qing knows that this Queen Isabella is the saddest character, because although Queen Isabella behaves "romantic" on the surface, if you look at her situation, this is also "pitiful". Because Queen Isabella's future husband is a homosexual, and most likely a petty one.

How can a queen stand a woman with such a husband and not be able to divorce? Not only can it be physically satisfied, but even how huge the inner pressure is, this can be imagined. In the words of later generations, this Queen Isabella is actually a "halfwife".

But if it is an ordinary person, maybe you can still get a divorce, maybe you dare to divorce. But as the king of a country, even as a wife, it is very troublesome, and I dare not mess around easily. So under this long-term torment, her mentality has changed and she has become messy with other men, and she may not be able to blame her. On the one hand, there is a lot of love everywhere, but on the other hand, there is a sense of guilt, if combined with her identity as a "wife", this may not be an "understandable" situation.

"Uhhhh

The voyage was finally over, with a boat from the English port of London, bypassing Portugal and entering the Mediterranean, finally to the port of Spain. The first stop of Xu Qing's visit on behalf of the Chinese Manchu court was set in Spain, because he planned to visit from west to east, so as to save the process on the road.

After all, the current relationship between China and Europe is not complicated, and there are not so many complicated entanglements of interests, so there are not too many scruples about the order, anyway, as long as it is resolved according to the geographical distribution location. Of course, in the future, as China's relations with other countries become more and more complex, it cannot be so casual.

Xu Qing hugged Princess Victoria, followed by several female students in the British Legation, and slowly walked off the boat. However, Spain soon took the initiative to send people to greet them.

"Her Royal Highness Princess Victoria, welcome to us in Spain!" The Spanish foreign affairs official hastened to say.

The British had already sent a small clipper to inform the European countries in advance to prepare, which was naturally very simple, so Spain had already prepared.

"This is Uncle Xu Qingxu, the Chinese Minister to Europe!" Princess Victoria took the initiative to introduce.

Xu Qing took the initiative to say, "Hello, sir! ”

"Well, Minister Xu Qing, welcome! Although Spain and China do not have formal diplomatic relations, we welcome them! But Mr. Xu, I really didn't expect you to know Spanish? ”

Xu Qing replied: "Of course, I not only know English, but I also know Spanish, German, French, Dutch and other mainstream languages in almost all major languages on the European continent. ”

"Oh, Minister Xu Qing is amazing." This time, the Spanish foreign affairs official finally couldn't help but admire.

Xu Qing didn't have time to talk nonsense with this guy, so he said directly: "May I ask sir, have you arranged the carriage?" I think we're going to meet Her Majesty the Queen! ”

Xu Qing and his group rode in a carriage and traveled for a week before arriving in Madrid, the capital of Spain. However, for many later generations of Chinese, for the word "Madrid", it may be more likely that the first impression is associated with some football teams, but they are not deeply impressed by the city and are ranked behind the team.

However, as a foreign minister, Xu Qing wanted to visit Queen Isabella first. After all, according to the rules, the book should be submitted first.

"Your Majesty, this is the letter I sent on behalf of the Qing Emperor of China!" Xu Qing said.

In fact, all countries don't care about this national letter, because diplomacy is such a thing, it is something that "kung fu is outside the play". What really matters is never talked about in the open. On the contrary, it was announced to the public, and it was all some foolish things!

"Well, Minister Xu Qing was able to come to our Spain, and our Spain should be seriously received. We held a special dance party for Minister Xu Qing and Princess Victoria, do you want to invite Minister Xu Qing to come and participate? Queen Isabella asked.

Xu Qing replied: "It's an honor!" ”

Xu Qing brought the female students who came together in his country to participate in this ball, and officially prepared to participate in the ball, this is the rule of the West, since you have come here? That is, to "follow the customs". This is also a common practice in the diplomacy of various countries, and there is no factor of respect or non-respect.
