That night, according to the attendant's recollection, Duke Churchill angrily smashed two beautiful Ming ashtrays.

Of course, when he received the loss bill shortly after, Duke Churchill shed tears of remorse.

But at least for this moment, the angry British gentleman was very relieved.

It was as if he had smashed not an ashtray, but the head of the irritated tyrant of the Ming Kingdom.

It is naturally impossible to ask Her Majesty for help.

It is absolutely impossible for the empress to write a message to the tyrant of the Ming Dynasty.

And as a special envoy, he has made no achievements after coming to Daming, and even British citizens can't protect it, which will be a huge shame!

The main thing is shame.

It's nothing if you can't protect that Canadian drug dealer, he's just a affairs officer.

Even with the prefix "Senior", he is still an officer.

It's not a nobleman, it's not an elected official, it's not a councilor, it's dead and it's dead.

This kind of person grabs a lot of them, doesn't he?

For example, Downing Street assigned himself a diplomatic adviser and secretary, the secretary of affairs, Haji.

Although he didn't like the old civil servant style of Haji, Churchill knew that only Haji could help him now.

Smoking a Cuban cigar, Haji was brought over, and Churchill lowered the tripod from his desk.

"Hage, my dear friend, you already know the Emperor's attitude towards Lord Overton's small amount of medicine, what do you think we should do about it?"

"Oh, Mr. Duke, I am only a humble civil servant, employed by the British Government to assist the Government and its appointed officials by virtue of the electoral system which we all understand and follow, to give advice and reference to the persons to whom the Government is to be served, within the framework of Parliament and the Acts passed and by the consensus of our country, and by virtue of the educational and professional experience which I have received, which is in keeping with the common ideals which our country has upheld for many years, and which are in line with contemporary circumstances, And under their guidance, orders, and requirements, they complete some clerical and administrative work that is not selective and irrelevant to the direction of policy......"

Touch!

The third ashtray was smashed to the ground.

Old Churchill took off his leather boots and pounded impatiently on the table, "Tell the point, Haji, or I'll kick you in the ass with this boot!" ”

"That's the point, Mr. Duke!"

"One of the principles of diplomacy is to leave nothing unnecessary, and not to work if you don't try to get a positive result," said Haji calmly. ”

"I can't believe it!"

Old Churchill said dissatisfiedly, "This is not an ordinary diplomatic turmoil, this is a contest between justice and evil, a collision between civilization and barbarism!" The life of a British citizen is at stake! ”

"Well, then, we can pray for him in the Anglican Church." Haji nodded.

"No, Haji!"

Old Churchill put on his leather shoes, "This is a matter of right and wrong, and the honor of our Churchill family!" ”

"Oh, dear Lord Duke, perhaps it is so for you, that your honor is at stake."

Haji crossed his hands over his chest, avoiding direct gaze, "But it has nothing to do with me, it's a waste of official time, after all, I'm just a humble civil servant, employed by British politics......"

"Damn it! That's enough! I repeat, a dutiful British civil servant, your colleague, is being tortured in this wicked country, and according to the law here, he will be sentenced to death. "Old Churchill said.

"No, Mr. Duke, drug trafficking is also punishable under English law, and he will either be executed for his crimes, or exiled to Australia to play with kangaroos, and finally die because of kangaroo beatings and trained doctors, and he will die after all, so ......"

Haji spread his hands.

"But he shouldn't have been put to death by the damned yellow-skinned monkey!"

Old Churchill stood up, "Do you know what will happen to him?" Ling Chi, a terrible oriental torture! This is the most humiliating and undignified way to die! ”

"Mr. Duke, I think this statement is technically debatable, and in my twenty years of experience in the British civil service, there are two or three, and I personally prefer three, more undignified ways of dying, such as dying in poverty."

Haji pouted and said, "So I personally think we're still ......"

"A thousand pounds!"

Old Churchill suddenly took the cheque out of his bosom, signed it, and stuffed it into Haji's hand.

Haji swallowed and continued: "Therefore, I personally believe that it is very important to properly deal with the detention of Lord Overton in the Ming Kingdom, and it is my duty and duty as a civil servant to make proposals that are neutral and professional, not radical or conservative, and not partisan and religious, when the relevant agencies and their officials seek advice in a manner permitted by the administrative rules and regulations in various obvious or inconvenient circumstances. ”

"Very well, Haji, you have finally regained your professionalism and glory as a civil servant in the British Empire." Churchill nodded, "Then please give me some useful advice!" ”

Haji examined the cheque under an incandescent light, counted the "zeros" on his fingers to make sure it was a thousand pounds, and slipped the cheque into his pocket.

"Mr. Duke, what is the purpose of our British foreign policy?" He asked.

"To defend the overseas interests of the United Kingdom and to preserve the honour of the Queen?" Churchill asked tentatively.

"No, Mr. Duke."

Haji shook his head and said, "It's to convince people that we are defending the interests of the country and the honor of the Empress." ”

"You're just specifying the countrymen?" Churchill asked.

"No, it's not the Ming, it's the British, it's those stupid asses with the votes, and Her Majesty the Empress!"

Haji's eyes widened and said, "The people of the Ming Kingdom, especially Zhu Fugui, of course they know that we can't do it!" ”

……

The development of events was beyond Zhu Fugui's expectations.

In the next 48 hours, Zhu Fugui neither waited for Victoria's sister-in-law to have a short relationship, nor did he find any diplomatic efforts by the British side to rescue Canadian drug traffickers.

Not even symbolic negotiations and good offices appeared.

On the contrary, from the next day, Churchill, who smoked in reverse, should eat and drink, and even had the interest to take the Daming Fuxing Express Train to Fengdu, and visited Fengdu Zoo, Fengdu Playground and other places.

If it weren't for the accompanying brocade guards, he would have even been interested in running to Seattle for a walk.

At the same time, several articles were published in major British newspapers.
