Chapter 149: Camp (5)
At the same time as tensions between the two sides were accompanied by frequent negotiations between Chinese and British diplomats, diplomatic cables between Beijing and London flew like snowflakes in the offices of diplomats, and the situation seemed to be on the verge of a touch.
Liu Yun was not nervous about www.cmfu.com release, he knew that the deal would eventually materialize, the British had their own natural and reasonable bottom line, and so did China, as long as the leaders of both sides were still sensible, a full-scale war between China and Britain would not break out immediately - presumably not immediately.
www.cmfu.com release" Tell me, how are you talking to the British? Liu Yun nodded to Foreign Minister Mo Ning.
www.cmfu.com release" roughly probed the bottom line of the British, and it seemed that it was to be exchanged for Brubak (Bhutan) and Je Mengxiong (Sikkim). β
How to change www.cmfu.com release? β
www.cmfu.com issued that "China and Britain will jointly ensure the territorial integrity and sovereign independence of the Gurkhas, and China recognizes Brubak and Zhe Mengxiong as princely states under the Anglo-Indian governors." β
www.cmfu.com released Liu Yun frowned: "It means that Bhutan and Sikkim should be turned from protectorates to colonies, and it is beautiful to think about it." β
www.cmfu.com release "Judging from all aspects, this is the bottom line of the British side, if it can't even do such an exchange, not only will the damaged interests be compensated, but the face of the world's first power will be lost, and Britain will have to fight." What's more, the war mood in Britain is already on the verge of breaking out, and India is the core of the British Empire's global colonial interests. β
www.cmfu.com Liu Yun pondered for a moment, and then turned to his confidant general, Secretary of Defense Hook: "Over there in the Navy, how is the situation?" β
www.cmfu.com released Hook shook his head helplessly: "The navy generally believes that now is far from the time to challenge the world's number one naval power, and it is not worth paying too much price for a place like Gurkha that lacks practical strategic significance. β]
www.cmfu.com release" lacks practical strategic significance? Liu Yun was a little unhappy, and the implication was that those short-sighted guys in the navy dared to doubt the strategic rationality of the Gurkha sent by His Majesty the Emperor, which was really hateful.
www.cmfu.com the idea of the navy is based on offensive thinking, and the Gurkha is of great significance as a bridgehead for defense, but it is too reluctant to use it as a base for attack, and the geographical situation in Tibet determines that we cannot use troops on a large scale in that direction. β
www.cmfu.com only thought of asking the prime minister for his opinion after releasing Liu Yun's most opinion: "Zhang Zhigao, tell me your opinion." β
www.cmfu.com At the beginning of the First Sino-Japanese War, we were overly proud and arrogant and were taken advantage of by the relatively weak Japanese army, and during the war against Russia, we also did not take the other side in our eyes, and often unconsciously applied the history we know to reality, which caused a lot of problems. β
www.cmfu.com release "In fact, the world of China is a mutual reaction, our country's strength increases by one point, the opponent's vigilance and precautions against our country increase by one point, our country's strength is strong enough to quickly conquer a certain place, the other side can not help but plan corresponding countermeasures to restrain our country, the contemporary power that can be called a great power has never sat back and waited for the opponent to gradually become stronger and indifferent and waited for the beating, and the same is true for Britain. β
www.cmfu.com released "Now that the international situation is not in my favor, and the empire has just experienced a major war, a coup d'Γ©tat and a change of dynasty, it is the time to clean up the dirt and rectify the internal affairs, recuperate and recuperate to develop the economy, and repair diplomacy even horizontally and vertically. Moreover, Bhutan and Sikkim were originally in the hands of the British, and our country's change from recognizing them as British protectorates to recognizing them as British colonies was only a matter of lip service, but the Gurkor was really separated from the protection of the British because of our interference, and the current king of Gurkup was favored by our country and held a pro-China position. β
www.cmfu.com released Liu Yun stroked his palm and said: "It is worthy of being the prime minister, the words are to the point, okay, I am not stubborn, if I can't bear it, I will make a big plan, so let's make a contract according to that condition." β
www.cmfu.com the matter of the Gurkha has been discussed, but the three ministers have not yet meant to leave, they watched each other for a while, or Zhang Zhigao cautiously opened his mouth first: "Your Majesty, there is one more thing ......"
www.cmfu.com release" has something to say. β
www.cmfu.com released "Regarding the matter of establishing the prince, I don't know if Emperor Lu Dao has considered it......"
www.cmfu.com released Liu Yun's eyebrows, shook his head and smiled: "You are all looking forward to my early death." β
Zhang Zhigao was not alarmed when he released the www.cmfu.com: "It's not that way, it's mainly for the sake of consolidating the royal family, hoping to have a reassuring inheritance order, and the crown prince can also replace the emperor to travel in the country, visit other countries, enhance the cohesion of the empire internally, establish an enlightened image of the empire externally, and gradually eliminate the influence left by the former royal family at home and abroad." β
www.cmfu.com release" In this way, it is not possible to appoint a crown prince, so you can tell me who is more suitable to be the crown prince, according to the imperial constitution, you all have a chance. β
www.cmfu.com promulgated Originally, according to the imperial constitution, the emperor could choose no more than three candidates for the prince by himself, and the parliament voted to choose, and Liu Yun was legally selected by the former Guangxing Emperor as the candidate for the prince and voted by the parliament, thus ascending to the throne.
www.cmfu.com In fact, the intrinsic meaning of the so-called Chinese Empire is to nominally summarize all the unified orthodox dynasties in history, and its main purpose is that all dynasties and dynasties are the historical inheritance of the Chinese Empire, with the Yellow Emperor as the founding god of the country, and then all the emperors of the unified orthodox dynasties are sacrificed to the Taimiao, taking the history of the entire Chinese civilization as the history of the empire, and not being confined to the division of one surname and one dynasty - but those Manchurian royal families who have been in the underworld may not agree with this view.
www.cmfu.com release: "The three of us all believe that Her Royal Highness Princess Yuehua should be the prince. β
www.cmfu.com release of this can be said to the heart, Liu Yun couldn't help but be overjoyed, but his face still pretended to be indifferent: "It's weird, you all think so?" Do you want an empress so much? β
www.cmfu.com release "According to our understanding, only Princess Yuehua is currently the most suitable to be the prince, not to mention the emperor's feelings for her, first of all, the princess is from our contemporaneous space, and can keep up with the thinking of comrades, at least there is no obstacle to communication; Secondly, after the princess came here, she was well-read, diligent and inquisitive, visited the people, interacted with each other, was approachable, sympathetic, and wise, and had the demeanor of a king; Thirdly, the princess is of the right age, beautiful and beautiful, and is both civil and military, and is the ideal image spokesperson for the royal family internally and externally, which can not only soften the sentiment of the domestic opposition, but also improve the belligerent image of our country in the eyes of Westerners since the Afro-Asian War......"
www.cmfu.com released Liu Yun still had to resist stubbornly: "You guys, you all told her to go to heaven, I don't think she may be so good." β
www.cmfu.com Zhang Zhigao added another weight: "This is not only the idea of the three of us, but also the meaning of most comrades, please consider it carefully." β
www.cmfu.com release, "Lichu is a big deal, it's not easy to decide casually, besides, my test of her is not over yet, take your time, don't be in a hurry, if there is nothing to do, you can go back first." β
www.cmfu.com released the mention of Princess Yuehua Liu Qianhua, Liu Yun even forgot the emperor's self-title of "I", and called him "I" directly.
www.cmfu.com the three ministers have just retired, and a female official has come here to report that the late Viscount Zhu Tao's widow, Viscountess Zhu, wants to see her.
www.cmfu.com released that Liu Yun didn't want to see that person, that woman was a weed that should have been cut off but didn't start because of a little compassion, and so far he can't, or rather, has no intention of confirming whether the decision at that time was right or wrong.
www.cmfu.com posted, "What is she here for?" β
www.cmfu.com released the female official and said: "Come to pick up her two children, saying that Mu has been favored by the emperor for a long time, and before leaving, I want to say goodbye to the emperor." β
www.cmfu.com release", then order her to wait in the Imperial Garden. β
www.cmfu.com release, it doesn't hurt to see it, anyway, so far, that woman is just a harmless little weed, and she's about to disappear far from under your nose.
When www.cmfu.com released that Liu Yun and the queen arrived at Shufangzhai, Mrs. Zhu had been waiting for a long time, and was about to kneel down as a ceremony, but was already helped up by the queen: "My good sister, how to make it, don't kneel, sit down quickly." β
www.cmfu.com release Liu Yun sighed in his heart: No, the queen who is so good, she has been polluted by my civilian thoughts.
www.cmfu.com everyone sat down in turn, and Liu Ping's brother and sister and Zhu Tao also reluctantly sat on their side of the family.
www.cmfu.com released a few words of greeting between Mrs. Zhu and the queen, and said that she wanted to give a gift: "The maiden family of the courtiers brought a large table clock with purple and gold carved flowers with eight scenes from Jiangning, which is very interesting, and said that it was specially used to present the emperor, in order to thank the emperor and queen for her kindness to the courtiers' family over the years......"
As www.cmfu.com he spoke, four eunuchs had already carried a chariot wrapped in red cloth to the front of the hall, and placed the object in the center of the hall.
Mrs. Zhu said "see and laugh" in www.cmfu.com release, and then got up to uncover the red cloth, sure enough, it is a purple gold, finely carved peerless treasures, the clock dial is marked with the gem-inlaid twelve heavenly stems, the bell top wheel is placed with a small silver sculpture of the zodiac, all sides of the bell body are carved into a Chinese-style temple building, and the doors and windows seem to be able to open and close.
www.cmfu.com released "The so-called eight scenes, hidden in these doors and windows, usually do not have a scene until the set moment, but as long as you press this switch, the eight scenes can be operated at the same time......"
www.cmfu.com Mrs. Zhu said, she was about to press the mechanism in the middle of the bell top revolving table, and her fingers were still inches away from the mechanism decorated with a Chinese watch, and suddenly Liu Yun shouted "Slow" behind her back, and Mrs. Zhu's hand froze in mid-air as if time stood still.
www.cmfu.com Liu Yun didn't reply, his face was like a clay sculpture: "Wu Haisong, what do you want to do." β
In the shadow behind the emperor of www.cmfu.com, a royal guard with a face like steel and a body like iron slowly appeared, and I saw him walk around in front of the emperor in a few steps, knelt down on one knee and said: "Your Majesty, I have an idea to let Mrs. Zhu's gift bring more fun to everyone." β
www.cmfu.com release" yes? Liu Yun squinted at Wu Haisong slightly, deliberately prolonging his voice.
www.cmfu.com release" implores the emperor to give Xiao a chance. Wu Haisong's eyes shone strangely.
www.cmfu.com release, "Okay, I'll give you a chance, but don't let everyone down." β
www.cmfu.com Liu Yun said, glancing at Mrs. Zhu, who was still frozen next to the clock, and found that the virtuous lady's fingers stretched out to the mechanism were shaking like a shudder.
