It's really hard to figure out the ancient China in front of you. No matter what, no matter what the political views are, from a personal point of view, he is still honored to meet this magical prince of the Celestial Empire, and in him, in his words, he can always have a sense of freshness. People need to constantly chase new things, at least out of curiosity.

Today, in fact, he got a lot of information from the mouth of this prince who was actually in charge of the fate of this Celestial Empire. Although the French Empire has established a military partnership with the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom in front of him, a powerful red Taiping Heavenly Kingdom is not what his empire wants to see. The politicians of the empire are like mad bulls in the Spanish bullring, with a natural aversion to the color red. To put it bluntly, they are afraid that this red regime will dominate the East and then pose a threat to the whole world.

Due to the political needs of the country, and more broadly the needs of the so-called national interests, diplomats are sometimes in a very awkward position. They have different hearts, and sometimes they have to slap their swollen faces to become fat, and once they don't do it well, they will hit their left cheek and then hit their right cheek, and it is difficult for them to round themselves. To say that they are like scoundrels at this time is not too much at all, if you really want to talk about it in detail, I am afraid that they are still exalted.

Bourblon is almost like that now.

For the sake of the Empire, he needs to continue to accompany the smiling faces of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, because the Empire needs to get the much-needed arms from here. As an empire that dreams of becoming the long-term hegemon of Europe, it will not let go of this rare opportunity lightly. However, for the sake of the Empire's own needs, they are carrying out what is essentially a betrayal of their allies. The Emperor had already decided to make peace with Tsarist Russia, and had been secretly operating since several months ago. In this way, their promise of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom to contain the Russian army in the Near East became empty words.

As early as the Napoleonic Empire, Britain and Russia, the staunch main forces of the previous anti-French alliances, were the dark shadows that pressed on the hearts of his French Empire. It was they who held the Empire in its grip on the whole of Europe. What the Emperor wanted to do now, Bourblon actually knew in his heart. His Emperor wanted to get what he needed from the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, but he also wanted to leave a formidable opponent by the side of the nascent regime. Without Russia, the balance in the Far East would not be guaranteed.

Burblon had already received a notice from the country that he would convey the Empire's arrangements in the Near East to the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom government at the appropriate time, and of course, to be tactful. To put it bluntly, he asked him to make up some suitable reasons for himself. An Wang Lin Haifeng returned to Tianjing from the Jiangbei battlefield this time, which was a good thing for Burbulon. He has tasted the characters in the upper echelons of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom one by one, all of them are not so good at talking, like this kind of thing that not only betrays the interests of others, but also asks to continue to get benefits from others, and talk to the East King, the Wing King, the Ning King and others, he has estimated that there is a chance that he will be blinded. The entire Celestial Empire felt to him, and it was still this King An who was easy to talk to.

It's a pity that as soon as King An returned to Tianjing, he was left with a busy word, and he didn't have time to receive him at all. It wasn't until today that he fully understood that in fact, the Tianjing Incident, which was temporarily quelled last year, had never ended, and in his opinion, the palace coup in Tianjing was still continuing. No wonder this King An is so busy.

The Taiping Heavenly Kingdom would not compete for overseas supremacy, but they were loyal to their friends, and they wanted their French Empire to dominate Europe, especially Britain across the Strait. This is the inspiration he received from the words of this King An.

Bourblon secretly decided to make a return to Paris in the near future, and he was to present his presence to His Majesty the Emperor. However, he still has to do a few more things before leaving, to apologize to the other party, the domestic contradictions are fierce, and it is difficult for the French army on the battlefield to support for a long time, after all, Russia's Black Sea Fleet and more than 200,000 army have come to naught, and this statement can finally be an explanation to the dear allies. In addition, according to the initial verbal agreement with this King An, the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom government should also fulfill the supplementary supply of ammunition and ordnance accessories for the new weapons provided by the empire, but to this day there has been no news, which is why he, and the emperor, are more anxious.

The parade is over.

Bourbulon, who walked down the viewing platform with Lin Haifeng, had not had time to ask His Royal Highness King An when he would be able to meet him and discuss these urgent problems in detail, His Royal Highness King An had already bowed his hand to him apologetically, telling him that he was still very busy recently, and that he could go to the specific department to handle any important matters first.

Burbulon was a little flustered, his matter was too urgent for the specific department to solve.

"Your Highness......"

Without waiting for Burbulron's words to continue, Mashali, who had been waiting below, ran up in three steps and two steps, and he arched his hand at Lin Haifeng, stealing Bourbulon's words, "Oh God, my esteemed Royal Highness King An, I can finally see you again." ”

Ma Shali, who could only temporarily come to participate in the military parade as an ordinary member of the American Civil Chamber of Commerce, was too far away from Lin Haifeng on the viewing platform, and he didn't have a chance to speak, and he waited here early before the ceremony was over.

"Hello, Mr. Marshali." Lin Haifeng hugged his fists, his steps slowed down, but he didn't stop.

"Your Highness, I have just returned from China, and our cabinet has agreed to immediately consult with your government to establish diplomatic relations at the level of minister." Marshali smiled and took a step.

"That's great news." Lin Haifeng smiled and nodded, "You can go and visit our Prime Minister as much as you want, and he will immediately arrange for someone to discuss with you and the members of your delegation." ”

"Oh, Your Highness," Marshali groaned in pain, clasping his hands together in his heart, "the time has come to sign the contract for the second phase of the Kiangsi Railway, but they refuse to sign any more contracts with our American Comptoirs, so save them, merciful Highness." ”

"Is there such a thing?" Lin Haifeng stopped, looked at Marshali, then at Bourbulon, and sighed softly, "Okay, I'll take the time to ask, but it will take a while." I think that His Excellency Bourblon must also have something important to talk to me, so let's go back and rest first, relax, and when I am done with my business, I will pay a visit to your Excellency. With that, he hugged his fists at the two of them, and walked to the side, apparently waiting for the Red Army generals who were waiting for him.

Burblon glanced at Marshali, who was stunned there, and shrugged helplessly, "Wait, they're really busy." ”

Marshali smiled bitterly, shook his head, and suddenly whispered to Burblon and asked, "Who do you think the next Heavenly King is?" ”

Bourblon did not answer. However, Marshali's question caused him to think deeply.

"I think it must be him." Marshali seemed a little smug.

"Hehe, why did your government's government suddenly take a big turn?" Bourblon looked at King An, who had left surrounded by dozens of Red Army generals, and looked at Marshali with a smile. He knew in his heart that America was perhaps no less averse to the color red than his empire.

Marshali glanced at Bourblon strangely, as if a little inexplicable, "My dear Excellency, what is the big turn?" We in the United States have always been optimistic about the Tianjing government and have sincerely made friends with them. Of course, to make friends, there must always be a process of getting to know each other, and once we have decided, we will never be half-hearted with our friends. ”

Bourblon frowned, and immediately retorted, "Your own country is flooded with British goods, especially the railways. Wouldn't it be this time to concentrate a large backlog of cheap railway materials in China, and come to find something cheap? ”

Burbulon's words really hurt Marshali's sore spot. Driven by the gold rush in the west, the heat wave of railway construction has been rising wave after wave, which has also brought about the rapid rise of related industries, and the domestic economy seems to be prosperous on the surface. In fact, if we calm down and think about it seriously, it is not the case, and the development of the national industry of the country has not improved, but has gradually shrunk under the impact of British industrial products. This is dangerous, and even some smart people in the country have predicted that the domestic economy is likely to fall into crisis again at any time.

It is precisely because of this general consideration, for the sake of the agreed Taiping Rebellion Jiangxi Railway and the expectation of the future construction of the Celestial Empire Railway, that this time, the politicians in China finally bowed their noble heads and tried to start using the so-called normalization of relations with the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom government as an opportunity to mobilize the domestic steel industry, so as to reverse the situation of the country's industrial decadence. The national interest is paramount, and as for what is not colorful, you can let it go first.

"Our goods are just as good." Marshali's face flushed.

"Hehe, don't you worry, Your Excellency, you didn't say that your American goods are rubbish," Bourblon smiled mildly, "However, the steel industry here does not have to be inferior to your country. If I'm not mistaken, their publicly reported numbers show that they have surpassed yours in pig iron and steel production last year. ”

"That's how much, it's a vast country, it's far from enough." Marshali was a little annoyed.

"Haha, yes, yes, they don't have enough, so you're in a hurry." Bourblon smiled heartily and took his leave.

Damn French! Looking at Bourblon's back, Marshali gritted his teeth fiercely and stomped his foot vigorously, his mother's, if you have to take advantage of all the cheapness for your family, then you will be happy.
