While preparations for war were in full swing in Zimbabwe, the Royal Central Government received the Far East Assistance Mission (FEMI), and Konstantin personally met with the members of the Assistance Mission.

Li Ge: "...... Under the instructions of the emperor, the government of the Far East sent Li Ge and Ande as the chief and deputy envoys to respect His Majesty Antai, the king of your country. ”

After listening to his self-introduction for a long time, Konstantin figured out that this Lige and Ender were not doctors, but officials of the Far Eastern Empire, and only one hundred and three people behind them were doctors in the Far East.

Konstantin immediately had an idea in his heart: "It is a good thing that your country is concerned about the development of medical services in East Africa, in this case, we cannot help but express that although your country has diplomatic relations with our country, it has never set up an embassy in our country, which is not equal in the world, and you two might as well be stationed in East Africa as Qing envoys to be responsible for liaison with the diplomatic affairs of the two countries." ”

Konstantin's words directly frightened Li Ge and Ender, Konstantin, the "king of Yangyi", wanted his own lives!

Originally, Li Ge and Ender's mission to East Africa was spurned by some people: "If you can't help people, you can do ghosts, why go to the state of your parents." This was the general attitude of the Far Eastern bureaucracy, otherwise they would not have allowed Li Ge and Ande, two small people who were not even considered official officials, to come to East Africa, and it was not until the first year of Guangxu (1875) that the Qing government officially sent diplomatic envoys to Western countries.

Li Ge and Ander are humble and naturally cannot go against the opinions of the above, but from the moment they go to East Africa, it means that the future is completely cut off.

Now that Konstantin directly appointed them ambassadors to the Far East to be stationed in East Africa, and this matter was to be reported back to China, Ligiant had a premonition that the name of traitors would fall on the two of them.

Not to mention this matter, just Constantine, a foreign monarch, bypassed the Qing government and directly appointed the two of them as ambassadors to the Far East, then the emperor and the Manchu Dynasty civil and military will let them go!

Li Ge and Ander hurriedly begged for mercy: "Your Majesty King Constantine, this matter must not be allowed! ”

Konstantin: "Oh! Why? ”

Li Ge said with a sad face: "The two of us were originally officials in the Far East, there is a monarch's father, the Far East is the most important and the norm is always ethical, there is a monarch who is not righteous, and the ministers vote for other countries. ”

Li Gewen Zou Zou said a lot, so that the East African translator studied it for a long time to figure out the general meaning.

Konstantin realized that this matter was something he had thought about, and that the Far Eastern scholars and doctors were prevalent in Confucianism, which was very different from the thinking of Westerners.

Konstantin said: "You two don't have to do this, what I mean is that my country will negotiate with the emperor of your country, let him agree to send diplomats in East Africa, if the emperor of your country agrees, the two of you can most likely take on this matter, if the emperor of your country does not agree, then I don't say it." ”

In the eyes of Britain and France, the so-called East African Kingdom is just a little trick of the Hohenzollern family that members of the Prussian royal family (German royal family) have built a colony overseas, and the Hohenzollern family is just a little trick to send diplomats to the colony to establish an embassy!

Especially when the East African Kingdom was established, Prussia was still just a small Prussian Kingdom, the so-called East African Kingdom was unbearable in the eyes of outsiders, and its status was not even as good as the Mozambique colony of Portugal next door.

Not to mention Britain and France and other countries, even Austria and Prussia, which have the best relations with East Africa, do not take East Africa very seriously, if others just look down on the East African Kingdom, but because Prussia and Austria give the East African Kingdom a little face, Austria and the Prussian government really do not look down on the East African Kingdom at all.

Even the identity of Prince Konstantin Heshingen is more valuable than the identity of the so-called king of the East African Kingdom, although the Hexingen Prince Kingdom is small, it is indeed a serious European vassal state, which is also recognized by European nobles, and the East African Kingdom is the same as the Indian emperor status of the British king in the future, but it is just a show, if others mention the British king, then the Europeans will be in awe, and the mention of the Indian emperor will make people laugh.

For example, Archduke Ferdinand, who served as the commander-in-chief of the East African Navy, is still a laughing stock in Austria, but for the sake of His Majesty the Emperor's face, everyone doesn't say it, and Franz is also very faceless, but his younger brother goes to East Africa to retire, and it is better to go to Mexico to be strong.

In fact, since learning that his Emperor Majesty did not die, the royalists in Mexico have gone to Austria to pray for Ferdinand to come back to the mountain, and at the last time to set up a government in exile, everyone will earn some allowances in Austria, then Franz will definitely not agree, the lesser of the two harms, plus Ferdinand is very good in East Africa, and from time to time he can go home through the Suez Canal to see, so it is not a bad thing to let Ferdinand stay in East Africa, as for Ferdinand to make a career in East Africa, everyone will just have fun.

Ferdinand: Don't bully the middle-aged poor!

The development of the East African Navy is still very fast, except that there are no ironclad ships, but this year there will be two new steam-powered warships built by the Bagamoyo shipyard in service, plus the two rebuilt warships of the Sultanate of Zanzibar, and by next year Ferdinand will have eight steam-powered sailing warships.

All in all, East Africa is a diplomatic desert today, and there are many embassies set up unilaterally, but they are not very useful, and sometimes they are not as effective as the Hexingen Bank.

Of course, this has something to do with the fact that the Kingdom of East Africa has been established for a short time, but it is not without countries that intend to set up embassies in East Africa.

This country is Paraguay, which was miserable by Ernst, after the baptism of war, Paraguay has completely become a ruin, coupled with a large loss of population, it is difficult to even maintain the stability of the government, and the Paraguayan government is next to Argentina, which makes the Paraguayan government more worried, Paraguay and Argentina are out of Spain's La Plata colony, the same origin is the most suspicious, Brazil just wants to beat itself, Argentina is really possible to annex itself.

Therefore, Paraguay urgently needs to find a backer internationally, and East African immigrants in Paraguay have been caught, and under the contact of East Africa, Paraguay has taken a fancy to the Austro-Hungarian Empire behind East Africa.

Although the Kingdom of East Africa is not of great use in this regard, it is not a liaison, so the Paraguayan government is interested in setting up an embassy in East Africa, but the Paraguayan embassy has not yet been built, mainly because the Paraguayan government has not yet selected diplomats.

As for Paraguay and the Far East, who will set up the first embassy in East Africa, it depends on who is active, diplomacy is such a thing, anyway, the current East African kingdom is not in a hurry, no one pays attention to East Africa, that is a good thing, if there is really a country that pays attention to East Africa, then I am afraid that it is a weasel to give a New Year's greeting to the chicken, and there is no good heart.

In fact, there is one country that would like to set up an embassy in East Africa, but East Africa has not agreed, that is, the Sultanate of Zanzibar. In East Africa, it seems that the establishment of a legation in Stone Town (the capital of the Sultanate of Zanzibar) can be regarded as giving face to the Sultanate of Zanzibar, and the Sultanate of Zanzibar is to the Kingdom of East Africa, which is like Japan to the United States in the previous life, taking care of you in business, that is assured, if you are not at ease, you will have already blown up your fart.

Hearing Konstantin's arrangement, Li Ge and Ander's hanging hearts relaxed slightly, but their hearts were still extremely bitter, Konstantin and the Far East government negotiations, he will definitely mention the two of them, even if the Far East ambassador really falls on his two heads, the future future is probably also dim, it is better to vote for this East Africa and take his family from the Far East, they are also afraid that their family will be gossiped behind their backs in the Far East.

Li Ge and Ande were originally from poor backgrounds, with no background, and there were not many family members, so it was really the ancestral tomb that smoked green smoke when they were able to win the imperial examination, but they were sent to the barbarian land of East Africa before they could enjoy it.

Konstantin didn't know that his casual decision made the two of them sit on pins and needles, in fact, Konstantin simply wanted to separate Lige and Ander from those Far Eastern doctors, these two were official people in the Far East, and those doctors must also be under their management, which was not good, the doctors were from East Africa.

So Konstantin said: "This matter is so decided, I will personally write a letter to your monarch when I go back, and I will praise you both well, alas, the Far East is indeed worthy of an ancient country with a long civilization, and the courtiers are so loyal to the monarch, I think it will be vigorously promoted in East Africa in the future." ”

This is Konstantin's true words, in that big place in Europe, so many countries, if there are really courtiers who are dissatisfied with the monarch, they will really jump to the hostile camp, and then look at the subordinates of the eastern monarch, and even die to save the face of their own monarch, the East African kingdom, as an absolute monarchy, naturally wants such "loyal and patriotic" people.

In fact, the time of civilization in Europe is too short, and the Spring and Autumn Period of the Far East and the Warring States Period are also the flow of talents to various countries.

Konstantin continued: "The Ministry of Health has done a good job of hospitality, and these doctors from the Far East should come up with a plan to make them feel like they are coming home in East Africa, and promote the development of medical care in East Africa." ”

Health Secretary Belled understood: "Yes, Your Majesty, we just lack many deans who can take charge of their own affairs, and we can arrange for these doctors to take up their posts. ”

The doctors in the Far East couldn't understand the conversation between the two, and they didn't know that their group of people had been regarded as their own by the East African Kingdom.

As for their families in the Far East, it is not a big problem, and naturally someone will arrange for them to reunite in East Africa in the future.
