Buckingham Palace, one of the most important palaces of the British royal family, is also the place where Queen Victoria stayed for the longest. In addition to Buckingham Palace, there is probably only Windsor Castle and other places that can be compared. Of course, it is still a symbol of British royal power.

Although, Britain is a constitutional monarchy, the influence of the royal family among the people has become less and less. However, as Britain continues to grow stronger, so does the influence of the royal family. But now, when Britain lost the war and was about to face the loss of the country, the influence of the British royal family has once again fallen to the bottom.

The joint audience of the Prime Minister, the Earl of Stanley, and the War Secretary, the Marquess of Anglesey, made Queen Victoria and Prince Albert very important. After all, now the power in Britain is in their hands. In particular, the Marquis of Anglesey, the Minister of War, also had millions of heavy troops in his hands.

"Your Excellency, how is the island of Ireland? I heard that the Chinese have landed on the island of Ireland and are approaching Dublin. Edward. Admiral Blakeney, what the hell is he doing? Why is this happening? Queen Victoria roared. Because the island of Ireland was about to fall, it made her a little out of sorts.

"Your Majesty, the current situation on the island of Ireland is not Edward. Admiral Blakeney caused, but there were other reasons! War Chancellor, Marquis Anglesey, frowned. Although, he has decided that he wants to give up the island of Ireland and give up Edward. Admiral Blakeney and hundreds of thousands of troops. However, this is because the Chinese army is powerful. For the sake of the entire British army, he had to do it. Edward. Admiral Blakeney was still his subordinate, the general he admired. Queen Victoria couldn't help but scold her like that.

"Your Excellency Marquis, what the hell is going on?" Prince Albert, the royal husband, found that the scene was a little out of control, and hurriedly came out to play a round.

"Your Royal Highness, Edward. The reason why Admiral Blakeney did not detect the landing of the Chinese in time and did not react in time was entirely due to the betrayal of Lieutenant General Wolfe, commander of the 55th Infantry Corps. Lieutenant General Wolf was a member of the Irish independence movement. According to the information we have received, the Irish independence movement has already defected to the Chinese. The actions of the Chinese on the island of Ireland. Got their full help. A large part of our army deployed on the island of Ireland is Irish. This makes problems for the entire army. Generals and officers had to be on guard against attacks from the Irish independence movement at all times. Even, there are often cases of army mutinies. In such a situation, the island of Ireland has formed such a situation. That's understandable! The Marquis of Anglesey, Minister of War, said neither humbly nor arrogantly.

"Those damned mobs, why didn't the army suppress them and kill them all, I don't believe it, in that case they would still dare to help the Chinese and dare to resist us!" Queen Victoria roared frantically.

Both the Earl of Stanley and the Marquis of Anglesey shook their heads. The queen is still too young, and when the country is getting stronger, she is a good monarch. But when the country is in crisis. She couldn't do what a monarch should do.

"Her Majesty, on the island of Ireland, except for the Irish independence movement, which is working against us. And the Jacobite Party. They have also turned to the Chinese. Therefore, our army is on the island of Ireland and is at an extreme disadvantage! Prime Minister Earl Stanley said.

"What? The Jacobite Party? This, how is this possible? "Queen Victoria is about to lose her voice. And Prince Albert's face also changed. The Jacobite Party was undoubtedly a nightmare for them.

"The Jacobite Party. Will they cooperate with the Chinese? Prince Albert couldn't believe it. After all, although the Jacobite had been fighting with the Hanoverian dynasty for the throne of England. But they also consider themselves heirs to the British throne. It is somewhat unlikely that they will cooperate with the enemies of Britain.

"Your Royal Highness, nothing is impossible. In order to obtain the throne, the Jacolites can do anything. They knew that the Chinese were about to destroy Britain, and in such a situation, if they wanted to get the throne, there was no other way than to cooperate with the Chinese! War Minister Marquis Anglesey said disdainfully.

"Damn! So what do we do? "Queen Victoria and Prince Albert were a little panicked. After all, if it was only Britain that was defeated, then even after paying a certain price, Britain would still be able to survive. The rule of the Hanoverians would not be overthrown either. But if the Jacobite had cooperated with the Chinese, then once China had destroyed Britain, their throne would have been lost.

"Your Majesty, we have no other way but to keep it as long as possible. Our secret cooperation with the Prussians has begun, and Britain will do its best to help the Kingdom of Prussia build a strong navy so that the Kingdom of Prussia will have the strength to challenge China. Once the Kingdom of Prussia wins, or if the Kingdom of Prussia and the Chinese Empire lose both, it will be a chance for the British Empire to rise again. Prime Minister Earl Stanley said. In doing so, they are laying a foundation for the future.

"We know that, and we agree with that. The gold given to the Prussians, the royal family was also half of the burden! Prince Albert said. Although, supporting the Kingdom of Prussia with the gold of the royal family and the state was somewhat difficult for him to accept. But for the sake of the British Empire, they had to do it.

"In addition, the cabinet will start purging the Jacobite party in the country from now on. We know that this will lead to the loss of many lives. But for the sake of the British Empire, we have to do it! Prime Minister Earl Stanley said.

"Your Excellency Prime Minister, the royal family fully supports the actions of the cabinet!" Queen Victoria said eagerly. Purge the Jacobite party, which was very beneficial for the Hanover royal family. It would be even better if the Jacobite could be eliminated. However, Queen Victoria also knew that this was almost unlikely. For example, Francisco I, the heir to the Jacobite party, was no longer in England at all, and it was completely impossible to want him to be executed.

"In addition, the cabinet also hopes that the royal family can cooperate with another action of the cabinet!" Count Stanley continued.

"What action?" Prince Albert asked.

"Your Royal Highness, the Cabinet wishes to collect all the wealth of England and then scatter it and hide it in all parts of the United Kingdom, so that we may have enough funds in the future to secure the re-emergence of the country. In addition to the wealth of the cabinet, we hope that the wealth of the private sector in the UK will also be part of this plan. The royal family is no exception! Earl Stanley said with a firm gaze.

"Your Excellency, you mean that the royal family wants to hand over all its wealth to the Cabinet, which is impossible! It's absolutely impossible. The wealth of the royal family is accumulated bit by bit by the ancestors of the royal family, and it belongs to all the royal families, and it is impossible to hand it over to the cabinet! Queen Victoria roared again. The wealth of the British royal family, that's an astronomical sum. After Britain became the world hegemon, it plundered a lot of wealth from its colonies. After hundreds of years of accumulation, how much wealth there will be, you can imagine.

"Your Majesty, this is for the good of the British Empire!" Earl Stanley persuaded.

"In whatever name, the cabinet cannot embezzle the wealth of the royal family. This belongs to the royal family! "Queen Victoria is not willing to compromise at all, she is like an old hen guarding her son at the moment.

Western countries emphasize the sanctity of private property, and the wealth of the royal family is also private wealth, how can the cabinet take it away? Besides, if the British royal family loses these wealth, then their influence in the UK will probably be further reduced, which is not a good thing for them. After all, calls for the abolition of the royal family are not without sound in Britain. It's just that the royal family has a lot of wealth in their hands, so they can settle these problems lightly. But if you lose that wealth, the consequences can be imagined.

Queen Victoria's resoluteness made both the Earl of Stanley and the Marquis of Anglesey look a little unpleasant. Originally, they also hoped that the royal family would take the lead, so that they could ensure that the rest of the population would not be so fiercely resistant. However, now that the royal family, like Scrooge, is unwilling to hand over their wealth, then things are a little more difficult.

A hint of ruthlessness flashed in the eyes of the Marquis of Anglesey, the Minister of War.

"Her Majesty the Queen, Her Royal Highness the Prince. What Britain needs is a royal family that can lead LinkedIn to a stronger country, not a parasite that will only ride on the people and suck blood. If the royal family is unwilling, then we will have to think differently about the role of the royal family. The Marquis of Anglesey said with a sneer.

"What do you mean, Your Excellency Marquis? Are you trying to threaten the royal family? Queen Victoria's face was very ugly. Prince Albert was similarly cold-eyed.

"No, Your Majesty, I'm not threatening the royal family. It is almost impossible for the army to resist the Chinese attack. Once the island of Great Britain is occupied, all this wealth will be taken away by the Chinese. In that case, the strength of the Chinese will be even stronger. If the Kingdom of Prussia wanted to defeat China, it would be even more difficult. And it is undoubtedly delusional for Britain to want to re-raise it. Therefore, I have to wonder what the royal family's intentions are in order to keep this wealth at such a critical juncture! (To be continued)
