"Young Master, the Queen and Mr. Li, please come over immediately."

"It's finally getting started!" Li Mo removed the nonsense from his mind, glanced at the paralyzed sugar merchants, and walked towards the palace hall under their frightened gazes.

The lavish halls of the Palazzo Yolani are still splendour, surrounded by Gothic-style frescoes. At the front of the hall, there is a chair with gold trim, which has been the dream of American businessmen for days, the throne of Hawaii's highest power, and although it is made of only some gold and sandalwood, it represents power and status as long as it is placed here.

Fifty percent of the world's sugar trading volume! This alone makes everyone crazy, not to mention that it is also the most important transshipment center in the Pacific, and its strategic position is extremely important!

Fortunately, only a small number of people can see the latter point now, the Pacific Rim powers have not yet risen, and the European aristocracy is still intoxicated with Eurocentrism, which gave Li Mo a chance!

Queen Liluokarani sat quietly on the throne, her face was flat and her expression was serene, as if nothing had happened in the past few days, and only after seeing Li Mo sitting in the hall did a hint of strangeness flash in her eyes.

Hawaii regained its calm, but lost Oahu and Kauai, and she didn't know if it was right or wrong. After staring at Li Mo for a while, Liluokarani looked through the gate, looking at the statue of King Kamehameha faintly in the distance, and a strong sense of helplessness rose in her heart.

"It's a pleasure to meet you."

When Li Mo approached, Liluokarani put aside all her emotions, got up gracefully, greeted the ministers of various countries and some native leaders standing in the hall, and said in her pleasant voice as she walked: "The past three days have been a disaster for me, the Kingdom of Hawaii, and all of you. ”

"Thankfully, everything has settled down now. The traitors have also got the fate they deserve, so today I must thank one person, who restored all this, restored peace to Hawaii, avoided war in the kingdom, and stopped everyone from being displaced, he is ......." In a pleasant voice, Liluokarani slowly walked to Li Mo's side, looked deeply at him in the stunned eyes of everyone, and then hugged him and kissed him on the cheek.

"Thank you, my dear nephew, Li Mo."

"Nephew? The Queen's nephew! Lilu Okarani's words suddenly detonated the entire hall, especially the ministers and the Lin family father and son who were hiding in the crowd, their eyes widened, and they couldn't believe what they saw.

This teenager!

How could this young master Li, who only came to Hawaii a few years ago, threw a lot of money around, and was considered to be the best of the best, be the nephew of the queen?! "Funny little guy!" In the corner, Laker stared curiously, looking at Li Mo, who bowed his head to accept the kiss, remembering the conversation he wanted to capture last night, and suddenly became a little curious about this young man.

"Thank you, my dear aunt! That's what I'm supposed to do, and that's what every Hawaiian should do. Limer took Liluo Caraney's hand and kissed her fingertips.

"Dear Lee, get on your knees!" Before everyone could react, Liluo Carani suddenly asked Li Mo to kneel again. This sudden move made many people familiar with Hawaiian etiquette feel bad, but they couldn't stop it.

In the surprised eyes of everyone, Li Mo took a deep breath, only a few people in this hall knew what would happen to Hawaii when his knees kissed the marble floor!

As Li Mo knelt on one knee, everyone held their breath, and Li Enfu clenched his fists even more, although the young master told everyone after returning in the early morning that the queen would give him Oahu and Kauai today, and canonize him as the Grand Duke of Hawaii, but seeing the young master kneeling on one knee at this moment, he still couldn't hide the excitement in his heart!

He knows better than anyone that as long as the queen's hand touches Li Mo's forehead, when that sentence is spoken, then his people will really have a sky of reading power!

In her eyes, Queen Liluokarani slowly stretched out her right hand, her movements were very slow, and she seemed to be full of hesitation, but in the end she pressed it on the forehead of the eldest young master Li, stroked her chest with her left hand, and took a deep breath calmly: "In order to thank you for your contribution to the kingdom, I canonize you as the Grand Duke of Hawaii as the Queen of Hawaii!" And give you Oahu and Kauai as your permanent fiefdoms.

"Hereditary replacement!" Liluo Carani finished the last four words word by word!

"What!"

Everyone in the hall shouted, if it was reasonable to give the title of Duke Limer, after all, everyone knew that he was the one who turned the tide, rescued the queen and defeated the Americans, and restored the rule of the kingdom.

What's more, Hawaii is just an inconspicuous small country, even if the queen makes a kitten and a dog a duke, no one will say anything, but the subsequent fiefdom words are like a thunderbolt, suddenly exploding in the hall!

What are Oahu and Kauai? One is the political and economic center of Hawaii and has a huge natural harbor! Kauaʻi is home to legendary Hawaiian gods and has some of the best plantations!

God, could it be said that this Young Master Li is not a nephew, but the illegitimate son of the queen? He received such a rich reward, which was enough to occupy nearly one-fifth of Hawaii's fertile land.

Although only Kauai is a sugarcane-growing area of the two islands, in Hawaii, where the land is sparsely populated and the sugar is full of sugar, these two large islands represent a steady stream of wealth!

"Wait! Your Majesty, I beg your pardon for not being able to accept such a canonization! Just when everyone was shocked by the queen's lightning canonization, and they were guessing what Li Mo's relationship with the queen was, and what he was using to blackmail the queen, a voice suddenly sounded.

Young Master Li, who had just accepted the canonization and was still shrouded in joy, hurriedly turned his head to look, wondering who dared to touch the young master's head at this time, and saw that Lin Zhaonian had already rushed out of the crowd first, glared at Young Master Li and said, "Queen, have you been coerced?" ”

"Threaten ......." Looking at the old man Lin who rushed out, a faint smile hung on the corner of Master Li's mouth, and before he could speak, a young man who was seven or eight points similar to Lin Zhaonian rushed out quickly: "I'm sorry everyone, my father drank some wine today, and he was a little drunk!" ”

"Jizong, you ......." Lin Zhaonian was just about to take advantage of the fact that there were many people and the other party didn't dare to expose Li Mo, but he didn't expect to be stopped by his eldest son, and just as he was about to get angry, he saw his son suddenly pull the corner of his clothes, and the corner of his mouth skimmed out of the living room.

The groups of soldiers standing solemnly, one after another brand-new rifles, suddenly made Lin Zhaonian sober up, he found that the people standing around on guard were actually fresh faces, and those local leaders who should have been the first to fiercely oppose also bowed their heads and were silent, and suddenly broke out in a cold sweat.

"Hehe, since you're drunk, let's go home early and rest." Seeing that the young master was already full of murderous energy, Li Enfu, who knew that this occasion was by no means suitable for impulsiveness, hurriedly walked out, and a cold light flashed in his eyes: "But I heard that the Chen family was also drunk last night, and they haven't woken up until now!" ”

"Chen family!" The slaughter in Li Mo's eyes made Lin Zhaonian's father and son dare not come out, and then he remembered that he had not seen anyone from the Chen family until now, and he suddenly understood what the other party meant by being drunk.

Although the sudden scolding and restlessness made the atmosphere in the living room a little tense for a while, but fortunately, Lin Zhaonian was in a hurry just now and did not use English, so the foreigners and natives present did not understand what was going on, Li Enfu hurriedly waved his hand and said to the queen in English: "Dear Your Majesty, please continue." Mr. Lin was just a little happy just now. ”

Although Liluo Carani vaguely guessed, she nodded obediently, and continued on the donkey: "To congratulate Lee on becoming the Grand Duke of Hawaii, I have decided to give him this royal palace as a gift from me!" ”

"Also." Obviously, Liluo Carani did not want to give others another chance to think, and sped up her speech: "From today onwards, Lee will also be the Minister of Foreign Affairs and Defense of the Kingdom, and as my representative, he will have full authority to handle the foreign affairs of the Kingdom. ”

"Thank you, Queen! Thank you, Auntie! Li Mo temporarily put aside the Lin family's father and son, and said with a smile on the corner of his mouth: "Auntie, please allow me to rebuild a new palace for you as a thank you!" ”

After speaking, Li Mo suddenly raised his right hand to everyone's surprise, and swore solemnly: "I, Li Mo, swear as the Grand Duke of Hawaii!" In my lifetime, Hawaii will never be tarnished again! Until I live, I will make sure that every Hawaiian can live and work in peace! ”

Looking at Li Mo's solemn and pious expression, Liluo Carani suddenly smiled and nodded at her, as if he was very satisfied with Li Mo's oath just now.

Seeing the queen re-seated, the uproar in the hall also reached the extreme, but most of the noise was foreigners, and those natives seemed to have already received news from the queen, so they had no special reaction to Li Mo becoming the Grand Duke and being canonized on the two large islands. The father and son of the Lin family hid in the corner and didn't dare to come out, only the American minister who was deliberately ignored had a gloomy face that was almost dripping.

"Everyone, please be quiet, I have something to announce!" Sweeping over the crowd, Li Mo raised his hands and shouted a few words. Perhaps a little curious about him, the new Grand Duke, everyone quickly closed their mouths and stared blankly at the raised hands.

"First of all, I would like to thank all of you for your support!" Li Mo, who had a spring breeze on his face, suddenly turned cold on his face before everyone could feel his excitement: "In view of everything that happened yesterday, to avoid the kingdom from repeating the mistakes of the past, I have already discussed with Her Majesty the Queen and decided to form a naval force, called the Pacific Fleet, and have already submitted a plan to Chile to purchase five warships!" After Li Mo finished speaking, he pointed to the Chilean minister present.

The Chilean minister, who had already had a tacit understanding and had received a large amount of benefits, was very willing to cooperate, anyway, these warships had long been Young Master Li's, but now they were made public, and he quickly stood up with a smile and nodded: "That's right, in order to help Mr. Li Mo fulfill his promise to defend the kingdom, and for the long-term friendship between Hawaii and Chile, our parliament has agreed to the procurement plan, and at present, the five warships have arrived off the coast of Hawaii, and they can enter Pearl Harbor just waiting for orders!" ”

"Hiss" Don't talk about the Lin family now, several ministers also gasped, secretly praising Li Mo for moving so fast!

With the Chilean minister re-seated, Limer said: "Secondly, in order to better promote the economy of the kingdom and ensure that your interests in the kingdom are maximized, Pearl Harbor on Oahu will be completely renovated, and a new seaport will be built on the Big Island, with an estimated total investment of two million pounds, and I announce that this transaction will be handed over in its entirety." ”

Young Master Li's eyes swept over the faces of several ministers, whether it was Britain, France, or Germany, they all looked at Li Mo with shortness of breath, this is a big business of two million pounds, no matter who wins it, they will immediately become the new celebrities in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the country where they are located.

"All to the German Empire, the best partner of the Kingdom of Hawaii." In the eyes of a large group of red notices, Young Master Li announced the final decision.

A few eyes of jealousy and envy quickly enveloped the smugness, and the German minister who stood up and shook hands with Li Mo almost devoured the two alive, especially the British minister Lecker, he didn't expect that Li Mo would finally choose Germany instead of the British Empire!

"Did the Germans give Li Mo any preferential conditions?" Lecker immediately frowned: "Or do they want to use Hawaii as a springboard to enter the Pacific region?" ”

"Should I send another telegram!" Lecker muttered to himself
