Inside the British 'Embassy' in China, Jurdes was fiddling with his new dress in his living room. Although the British ambassador did not seem to be a very valuable thing, it was a pleasant thing for Jurdian to be promoted from the position of minister to ambassador anyway.

It's just that while Zhu Erdian was fiddling with his clothes in the room, someone outside the door came to tell Zhu Erdian, saying that the Chinese government had sent someone to meet him.

Of course, none of this is anything, after all, as the British ambassador to China, Zhu Erdian originally had duties and obligations in this regard.

What really made Zhu Erdian frown was that after congratulating him, that person actually told him that Yan Shao wanted him to go to the presidential palace to discuss the issue of Iran.

"Iran's problem..."Hearing this, Zhu Erdian couldn't help frowning and asked with some puzzlement. What is there to talk about in Iran..."

Standing beside Zhu Erdian, his secretary was also puzzled.

China is also a matter of fact, even though in the eyes of these white people, China in the past was basically a country made up of inferior races. But now that China has risen anyway and has a power that can almost rival them, there is no way for them to continue to look at the Chinese in the way they used to.

Therefore, at least at this stage, there are many British people who regard China as a co-existence in the same position, and even those who are very hostile to China on the surface are also deeply jealous in their hearts. After all, China is just too big...

On the other hand, if there is something to be feared about in China, it is Iran. Zhu Erdian really doesn't understand what is worth fearing...

At least today's Iran, but it can't even be compared to an ordinary European country.

Historically, Iran was not only bullied by the British, bullied by the Russians, and even the Turks could be bullied, so you can imagine how miserable this country is.

But...

Seems to have thought of something. Zhu Erdian's expression changed suddenly, and at the same time, the messenger smiled slightly, and then spoke. "Anyway. I have already sent the invitation, and I would like to ask Mr. Ambassador to give me a reply..."

"This..." frowned slightly, and after a while, Zhu Erdian nodded, and then spoke. All right. I'll prepare. I'll go over later, and I'd like to ask you, Mr. President, to wait for a moment. ”

"Hmm—" The messenger nodded, and then spoke. In that case, then I will reply like this, and ask Mr. Ambassador to come over earlier, so that the President will not wait too long..."

Saying this, he was heading towards Zhu Erdian. His secretary and the rest of the room nodded, but the man didn't say anything more. Instead, he retreated straight out of the room...

On the other hand, looking at the back of the messenger leaving, Zhu Erdian had a solemn expression.

"Mr. Ambassador, what is going on?" Seeing that Zhu Erdian's expression was so strict, the secretary asked with some concern.

"It's not clear," Zhu Erdian shook his head slightly. Iran, I just hope I'm the difference..."

――――――――――――――――――――――――――

Anyway, since Yan Shao wants to see Zhu Erdian, then Zhu Erdian always has to prepare well, and after making some preparations, especially after changing into the newly bought suit, Zhu Erdian called the car to go to Yan Shao's presidential palace.

Looking at the bustling scenes on both sides of the road along the way, Zhu Erdian sighed again.

At this time, he really didn't know what to do, whether to boast about his constant efforts to mediate relations between China and Britain over the years, or whether to slap himself hard and blame himself for not insisting on supporting Yuan Shikai in the first place and helping the empire eliminate a terrible enemy.

In fact, if there was anything he had always regretted about Zhu Erdian, it would be such a thing. China is now an absolutely formidable enemy for Britain, and at least in the Far East, Zhu Erdian has not seen a more threatening country than China.

It is precisely because of this that Zhu Erdian regrets it.

After all, Yan Shao was just a local warlord, even with the support of the French, even Yan Shao himself had a great reputation in Europe and the United States. As long as Zhu Erdian insists on eliminating Yan Shao―――――― he dare not say anything about it, but there is no problem in preventing him from constantly expanding his strength.

And as long as the Nationalist government did not unify China before 1914, at least two-thirds of Russia's territory would have belonged to Russia, among other things.

Of course, whether the two-thirds of the territory belongs to Russia or China is better off is a question that is undecided even in Europe and the United States.

On the surface, these territories have been given to China, which has greatly improved its territory, population, and strength, and seems to be a very bad thing. But on the other hand, it is much better to give it to China than to give it to Soviet Russia, at least in the eyes of many people...

After all, if it is only about ideology, Soviet Russia is absolutely hostile.

Anyway, things are already like this, and even remorse is useless...

At present, Zhu Erdian only has the only way to continue to move forward, and it didn't take long for Zhu Erdian's car to come to Yan Shao's presidential palace.

didn't see Yan Shao's presidential palace, and Zhu Erdian had an inexplicable sense of awe.

This is not only because of the extremely majestic construction of this building, which makes people feel a layer of pressure involuntarily, but also because it is the core of more than 20 million square kilometers and more than 500 million people in China, and more than 2 million troops owe allegiance to the owner of this building.

At the same time, there will be tens of millions of people, who will turn from ordinary people to soldiers at any time because of an order from the master here―――――― the number of soldiers is as high as more than 10 million.

With such a large number of troops and a large number of troops, at least on this land, it seems that there are no enemies...

"Mr. Ambassador, the President has already instructed that if you come, you can enter directly..."

Seeing Zhu Erdian, the guards standing outside the door of the presidential palace hurriedly stepped forward and spoke, and after speaking, they opened the door and let Zhu Erdian's car in.

On the other hand, leaning back on the seat, Zhu Erdian was still guessing what Yan Shao's purpose was. (To be continued......)
