Ali Guo is so unlucky. In the morning, he gritted his teeth and ran to King An's mansion to ask for a visit, but King An went out to watch a play. In the afternoon, he arrived here early again, for fear that something would happen again. This time he was very lucky, when he waited anxiously at the door for a while, the guards who went in to pass the gift finally brought him into this gatehouse, which was not big and the threshold was not high, but for him, it was a rare palace.

However, I came in, but I had to continue to wait in the small reception room. The guards told him that His Royal Highness King An was busy right now, and asked him to wait for a while. How much time is a moment for the Chinese, Ali Guo is now confused, half an hour, an hour has passed, can this also be called a moment? Alas, there was really no way, he could vaguely hear the laughter and conversation of King An and many people in the next room, and he could even tell that there were a lot of French people there, and the French spoke English very impurely, and he could hear it as soon as he heard it.

In the end, Ali Guo forgot how long he waited, because soon after Wang An's princess came.

The princess actually personally replaced him with a cup of tea that was said to be very valuable, and told him with an apologetic smile that His Royal Highness King An was reviewing the syllabus and textbooks of the Military Command College and the Naval Academy of the Red Army University of the Celestial Empire, and the two colleges of the Red Army University were about to open, which was the most important thing. However, the princess also reassured him with great certainty that no matter how late it was, His Royal Highness would definitely come to talk to him. The princess spoke to him about the ingenuity of his compatriots from England, their contribution to the Celestial Empire, and the high respect she had for the English people. Then, the princess also asked him with great interest about the national conditions and folk customs of England, which is far away from thousands of mountains and rivers.

During the conversation, the beautiful princess would speak some English from time to time, and expressed great envy for the powerful industrial development of Britain introduced to him, and even praised the beautiful scenery of the British Isles he told about, "I really hope that one day I can go to your beautiful country!" The princess smiled charmingly with a wistful smile, and her beautiful voice was like a lark singing, and Ali Guo was intoxicated.

"Welcome to the United Kingdom in the future, I think, whether it is our Majesty the Queen or our subjects of the British Empire, we will look forward to seeing the beautiful style of the Princess! You are so beautiful, I bet you are the embodiment of a beautiful goddess! There was some sincerity in his words, at least he had never seen such a beautiful woman, neither in the East nor in their British Empire.

Liu Xianghe was not used to this kind of praise from foreigners, and her face flushed. In her opinion, behind men's praise of women's beauty, there must be that unspeakable filthiness. However, she has no other way now, and she has to continue to deal with it, which is the task given to her by His Highness.

"Alas, it's a long way to your country, and Your Excellency also knows that we don't have such a big warship." Liu Xianghe frowned slightly, and suddenly, with an innocent expression, he looked at Ali Guo, "Your Excellency, if I don't take a warship, can I also go to your country?" ”

"Of course you can, you can, why do you have to take a warship, you can take a passenger ship or a freighter. If His Royal Highness King An is willing, we can build the most luxurious cruise ship in the world for the princess. Princess, our shipbuilding technology is the most advanced, and I don't know how many times better than the French......" Ali Guo wasted no time in making a big advertisement. He knew that if the princess could help him blow the "pillow wind" called by the Chinese around King An's pillow, the effect would come far faster and safer than anything he boasted about.

"Oh, I see, giggle...... I thought that if I wanted to go to another country, I would have to take my own warship. It turns out that there are so many boats to sit on, and it is really a long time to talk to Your Excellency. Liu Xianghe smiled, and smiled very sweetly.

"The princess is too famous, I'm just ......" Ali Guo grinned and smiled, but it was a little unpleasant to laugh halfway through. He looked at the princess, who seemed to be just chatting with him very casually, and was speechless for a moment......

The first batch of 2,000 cadets of the Red Army University has already begun to arrive in Shanghai from all over the country, and the original naval training camp will also be transferred to the new Naval Academy. As soon as he returned from the drama club at noon, he gathered a group of advisers and principal officers of the teaching brigade to review the teaching materials of the Military Command Academy, such as infantry, cavalry, artillery, engineers, and communications.

It wasn't until near dinner time that the review came to an end. After seeing off the advisers and the commanders of the teaching brigade, Lin Haifeng came to the small reception room.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Aliko, for waiting a long time." Lin Haifeng sat next to Ali Guo, and pushed the "Great China" brand cigarette on the tea table, which was still less than half a pack, at him, "Come, smoke a cigarette." As he spoke, he took out the embroidered cigarette purse from his bosom, habitually put it under his nose and sniffed it, and then lit his pipe.

"Oh, thank you, Your Highness, I smoked a lot, and this smoke does taste good." Ali Guo is telling the truth, he smoked too much, and his stomach began to croak, if he smoked again, he had to vomit. "Your Highness has every opportunity, and it is a great honor for a contemptible person to meet His Highness. Besides, besides, there is also the beautiful princess of Her Royal Highness who has been accompanying her, and the contemptible people are even more flattered. As soon as he opened his mouth, Ali Guo was a completely different person from before.

"Hehe, thank you, sir, for the compliment to my wife." Lin Haifeng smiled and glanced at Liu Xianghe opposite, "My wife is currently studying English, and I hope to go to Western countries in the future to see the beautiful mountains of each country, so I can take this opportunity to learn from my husband." ”

"Your Royal Highness is polite, the princess is not only beautiful, but also an extremely kind woman, a conversation, I and the princess have learned a lot." Ali Guo's white face was a little red.

"Yes, women, who are kind by nature and have a broad maternal heart, are always different from us men. We may value power and profit more. Lin Haifeng said, looking at Ali Guo and smiling, "Dinner is about to start, we Chinese often say, it's better to rush early than to rush, I asked Mr. to stay for an authentic Chinese meal today." There is no banquet without wine, and I will ask my husband to taste our best Chinese Moutai in a while. However, I think there must be something serious to talk about here, so let's talk about it first, and let's talk about the rest while drinking. Hehe, we don't count when we drink alcohol. ”

"Yes...... Be. Ali Guo nodded repeatedly, "Your Highness, first of all, I would like to apologize to your government. As the British government, it has always maintained a policy of resolute neutrality towards the civil war in your country, because of communications, and partly, because some people were tempted by the Manchu government, and of course, this also includes the others themselves. Without seeking the consent of the domestic government, we deviated from the policy of neutrality without authorization, causing a lot of unnecessary troubles to both sides, as well as heavy losses. Here, I apologize deeply and sincerely apologize to your government! ”

"We have a saying that if you don't fight, you don't know each other. Many friends gradually get to know each other and become friendly with each other through friction. For this, Sir does not need to blame myself more, and I accept your apologies on behalf of the Celestial Empire government. At the same time, I would like to express my regret for the damage caused to your country by the war. Lin Haifeng looked at Ali Guo with a sincere expression, and seemed to be a little helpless, "War has its own principles, and there are some things that we are difficult to control for a while. The problems that happened in Hong Kong were purely accidental, and they were never our intention. Now, the government of the Celestial Empire has ordered the return of the lawful property of a merchant of your country in Hong Kong, and as for the three gunboats captured by the Heaven and Earth Society, we have decided to return them to your country as well. Alas, the Heaven and Earth Society is very powerful in Guangdong and Guangxi, and there are millions of congregations in Guangdong alone. Do you know that they want to oppose the Qing Dynasty and restore the Ming Dynasty, although they seem to be the same as us in terms of the purpose of opposing the Qing Dynasty, but there are still differences, and in the final analysis, they are differences in faith. Now, we are trying our best to persuade them to cooperate with the Celestial Empire, and we have put in a lot of effort to achieve the kind of results I just mentioned. I think you must have seen some things, such as Shanghai, which was originally the territory of the Little Knife Society, a branch of the Heaven and Earth Society, and although they cooperated with the Celestial Empire, the management of Shanghai still had to be handed over to them. The same is true in Fujian, and even more so in Guangdong. A strong dragon can't overpower the head snake! ”
