Two days before the arrival of the royal family in London, after a short break, there was an endless stream of visits from the top nobles of the British royal family and European royal families, kings, crown princes, queens, princes, and grand dukes.

Among these noble royal families, the most noble is Prince David, his full name is Edward Albert Christian George Andrew Patrick David, that is, the future King Edward VIII, the eldest son of King George V, who reigned for only one year, because he loved beauty and did not love the seed of infatuation that will go down in history.

The problem is that the key is that the British king still loves a divorced widow in the United States, who is an extramarital affair and a third party intervenes, and the result is a chicken feather, and British gentlemen are reluctant to talk about him.

Why...... Shame on you!

Earl Castle Queensland

Li Fushou looked at him with great interest, interested in the young English prince.

Look at this kid's middle-of-the-road appearance, aristocratic etiquette is in place and proper, and it is not at all obvious that he is an amorous seed who makes such a terrifying and vulgar act, and it is much easier to get along with than the old cowardice of George V.

"On behalf of the British Royal Family and myself, I am honoured to be personally received by His Majesty, and frankly, you are a legendary monarch, and I have a deep respect for you because I grew up listening to your legend." Crown Prince David received a complete British royal education, impeccable etiquette, and his words were quite in place.

This kind of scene is generally just listened to, don't take it seriously.

But Li Fushou saw the sincerity in the other party's eyes, are they all words from the heart?

This intrigued him, and he asked kindly; "Thank you for the compliment, Your Highness David, it worries me to hear that you took part in military operations in France."

"Yes, Your Majesty, I am a recent graduate of the Royal Sandchester Military University, and after graduation I was awarded the rank of lieutenant in the army, and participated in part of the military operations of the British Expeditionary Force in France, but more often than not, in the headquarters of the 2nd Army." Crown Prince David's trip is just a courtesy visit to the British royal family, and there will be no substantive content, more of a casual conversation between parents.

In introducing himself, Crown Prince David said; "By the way, my classmate in the military academy, Lieutenant Li Xinmin, has a very close relationship, and he is from the Ocean Empire."

"Oh, are there many Chinese in the military academy?"

"It shouldn't be much, there were more than a dozen of us in that session, and the one who got close to me was Li Xinmin, the son of the Earl of Bettford's family, whose father was from Somalia."

"Oh......" Li Fushou replied casually.

Where does he know what Li Xinmin, what Earl of Bedford?

The population of the empire has exceeded 100 million, and there are only a few hundred people who can leave an impression on him.

"Your Majesty, Li Jianyang, Earl of Bateford, is also a very legendary figure, he was a close friend of the former Admiralty Churchill, who fought side by side in the Boer War in South Africa and escaped the Boer cage together. Now he is the deputy commander of the British North African battlefield, with the rank of lieutenant general, leading the army under his command to fight in North Africa and West Asia, and has defeated many Ottoman armies. Crown Prince David took the trouble to introduce it.

It's hard for him, and it's not easy for a 20-year-old crown prince and a 60-year-old emperor to find common ground in such an informal meeting at the highest level.

Li Fushou has a good memory, he frowned slightly and thought for a while, and said uncertainly; "Is this Earl of Bertford from the Viscount of Humen family?"

"Yes, Your Majesty, he is from the famous adventurous family of Somalia."

"Oh...... It's a bit impressive. Li Fushou suddenly realized, and basically understood the heel of this family.

Immediately, he became interested in the Somali-born aristocracy.

It's really good at drilling!

From the mouth of Crown Prince David, he knew that this Li Jianyang had a close relationship with Churchill, the former British naval secretary, and was a good friend of the family.

And Li Jianyang's son, Lieutenant Li Xinmin, and Crown Prince David are classmates and friends of the Royal University of Sanchester, and served together in the British Second Expeditionary Force Command.

Li Xinmin's younger brother is called Li Xinzhong, and Prince Albert is also a classmate in the military academy, and he should be a third-year college student now, and he has a good relationship.

This Prince Albert was the second son of George V and the future King George VI.

That's how it goes

The Earl of Bethford's family, which developed in the UK, can be regarded as truly integrated into London's top social circle, and the noble children from Somalia have turned around gorgeously and have interpreted their relationship network to the extreme.

Li Fushou didn't know that Li Jianguo, the second son of the Viscount of Humen, had a close relationship with Li Xiaozu, the governor of North America, and he hugged the thighs of the top wealthy families in the empire, and he did well in the business field, and the famous Somali company, Somali bank, Somali insurance and Somali tobacco company were all its industries.

For the Chinese who are good at management, as long as they are given a fair stage, they can perform a wonderful show.

The meeting ended

The Seventh Prince, Duke of Hawaii, Li Sixuan, sent the visiting British Crown Prince and a number of top nobles out of the castle, and the two sides said goodbye to each other.

Li Fushou returned to the dormitory with a tired expression, and Imperial Concubine Nicole hurriedly stepped forward, took his arm and sat down on the rocking chair, helping to gently beat his thigh, but he couldn't help but smile.

"What are you laughing at, concubine?"

"Your Majesty, people often say that London is a place where European royal families gather, and it is really good to see it in the past two days, so many great nobles in Wuyang, who are both kings and grand dukes, many of them have not been feuded, and they have only distinguished titles."

"You're right, European royal families in exile like to gather in London, the French royal family that was overthrown, the current Grand Duke of Bulgaria, and many more, behind each of their honorable titles, have a glorious history."

"Your Majesty, more than 20 new countries have sprung up in Europe in the past two years, why is not one of them a kingdom?" Nicole asked casually.

Li Fushou glanced at her in surprise, couldn't help laughing, and replied; "Hehehe, concubine, this question is very level!"

"Your Majesty, are you making fun of me again?"

"It's not a joke, but this question is really level, and the answer is not a matter of one sentence or two." Li Fushou gently patted Nicole's shoulder and said unhurriedly;

To answer this question completely, we must elaborate from three aspects in order to clarify the reason.

The first aspect;

The world war was an unprecedented catastrophe, and the Austro-Grenasian royal family, the Ottoman and German royal families, and the Tsarist Russian Empire, who personally ignited the flames, were all responsible for it.

The public opinion is overwhelmingly hated by the feudal royal rule, and the democratic system of France and the United States has given the people a new choice, and the general trend of the democratic system is unstoppable, which is the general trend.

The second aspect;

With the development of the industrial revolution and social humanities, Europe was the first region to awaken nationalism, and more than 20 new countries split after the world war, the vast majority of which were emerging nation-states with a single nation as the carrier.

For example, the Germans in Austria and the Magyars in Hungary are all in this situation.

In the process of the emergence of these European nation-states, it was mainly Britain and France and other European powers that were in the political goal of long-term peace and stability, and took action to dismember the defeated countries and support the establishment of nation-states;

The traditional royal family and aristocracy did not play a role in this process, nor did they lead the people to fight, and many nation-states did not have their own royal leaders, so they were naturally unwilling to find a father for nothing.

Thirdly;

It is also to blame that these European nobles themselves are not angry, for example, the Grand Duke of Bulgaria was able to rule Bulgaria, which was the result of the British royal family's strong support and the original game with Tsarist Russia.

But what did the Grand Duke do?

Plunging headlong into the arms of the Central Powers with Bulgaria brought terrible war trauma to this small Balkan country, then after the war, Bulgaria had no soil left to continue the rule of the Grand Duke, and was naturally swept away.

Sum up

The emergence of more than 20 nation-states in Europe, none of which is ruled by traditional royal families, is the result of the combined effect of the awakening of national consciousness worldwide and the tide of democratic processes.

When the war is over, it is not over.

People will reflect on war from all sides, for example, the current call for the establishment of an international organization, that is, the high-level reflection on war at the top of the world, and the need to establish a corresponding contradiction resolution and restraint mechanism between countries, which can be called a buffer, and do not use war to settle disputes at every turn.

During my current visit to Europe, I also want to sit down with the major European powers that have the right to speak and discuss issues related to the post-war world pattern and the system of international organizations.

There are so many wars in this world that it's time to take a break. ”

"Your Majesty, you are so great."

Hearing Li Fushou talk about the arrangement of the world pattern in a surging tone, Nicole's eyes were full of little stars, and she looked at him with great admiration and said.

Looking at the concubine who still had charm, Li Fushou smiled and said; "Tomorrow we will head to Buckingham Palace for a grand state dinner hosted by King George V to welcome us.

"Your Majesty, the concubine will definitely live up to her mission." Nicole pursed her lips and smiled, happily taking on the task.

Her beauty is like an aged wine in a cellar, which has become more and more fragrant over time, and the detached and noble temperament makes the little girl with a beautiful face sigh to herself.

On this early summer night

The Earl of Queensland Castle is brightly lit and ushers in its most glorious moment since its completion, as the royal palace of the Ocean Empire, housing more than 1,500 people, from cooks and gardeners to court maids, all from thousands of miles away from Australia.

Just the car that traveled filled two large freighters shows the extraordinary grandeur of the imperial family. (To be continued)
