【1299 Two Political Icons of England】
"Please sit down, I'm going to move to St James' Palace to stay for two days. It's a mess." Emperor Hua did not tense, but greeted former British Prime Minister William Ult Gladston very enthusiastically and easy-goingly.
William Ult Gladston sat on the sofa opposite the Emperor of China and smiled, "Your Majesty, you have to be polite. It is precisely because of this that I came to see Your Majesty. Otherwise, it would be more troublesome to meet him when he entered the Palace of St James."
Emperor Hua nodded, "If you have anything to say, just say it. Although you and me are only the first time you have come into contact with me, I have read many masterpieces of the Prime Minister, and we have been missing for a long time."
"Okay." William Ult Gladston said a few words to Emperor Hua, and thought to himself that Emperor Hua was indeed a natural child prodigy, not seen with his own eyes. Who could imagine a 9-year-old child could do this, Zhou Xiang's words and behaviors are more sophisticated than himself, a man in his sixties. "Your Majesty, then I will say it straight. All the signs now show that our Liberal Party will win the general election next year. At that time, I will definitely be the one who will form a cabinet. I am very anxious about the friction and conflict between China and the United Kingdom in Asia, the Middle East, and the Central Asia region. I do not agree with the crazy expansion plan of the Disraelli government, which has made the UK's treasury empty and the finances are tense."
The cute president nodded. For more than ten years, William Ult Gladstone and Gladstone were in power alternately. It is understandable that William Ult Gladstone came to get close to him at this time. The Emperor of China speculated that William Ult Gladstone might want to reach some tacit understanding with China in private to prepare for winning the election.
Emperor Hua smiled and said, "China and I like peace. I believe that sir should know that the diplomatic policy of the Five Principles of Peaceful Coexistence we have proposed, and that is colonialism that we want to fight."
William Ult Gladston nodded quickly and said, "Yes, everything in the world is a step back and the sky is wide open. I think, if the UK can guarantee the interests of China in Central Asia and Japan, China should be willing to stop interfering in the affairs of Britain in Afghanistan. As long as China cuts relations with the Afghan region, they will not be able to fight a war of attrition with Britain, and the war will end within this year. Your Majesty, what do you think?"
The cute president smiled and thought about William Ult Gladstone's words, the war was fighting for logistics supplies. This element. As a politician and military strategist, Emperor Hua of course understood that if the Central Asian Province of China helped Britain to block Afghanistan with its economy, although Afghanistan still had strong resistance, in that case, he would have to surrender to Britain and would eventually become a British colony like India.
"Sir, I think your proposal is very good. It's a pity that you can't seem to represent the British government, right? The negotiation basis of these things must be achieved through the form of a contract. If possible, it would be fine to sign a secret agreement between China and the UK." The cute president directly pointed out that William Ult Gladston had no real power.
William Ult Gladston was not embarrassed. Before coming, he thought about it, "I hope this is a private promise between us. I can make this promise with His Majesty by letter. I will first give my meaning to His Majesty Hua. His Majesty Hua will reply to me based on my content."
The Meng CEO found it a bit funny. He didn't know whether the other party was preparing chips for him and the British Liberal Party to win the general election, or the delaying strategy he called by the British royal family. The Meng CEO believed that the former accounted for 90% of the possibility of the royal family, and the authority of the royal family was not very high, so the possibility of asking this guy to use was very small.
The cute president immediately replied, "Yes, but I personally think that such a letter method does not seem to be of great significance, right? You can't do it. If you can sign a friendly treaty with China, our China will naturally be willing to maintain good relations with a powerful country like the British Empire."
"Next spring, after my cabinet is formed, I will immediately give His Majesty the Emperor a satisfactory reply. During this period, I will also try my best to ease the conflict between China and England. I am very happy that His Majesty has such an attitude. I can see that His Majesty is not a warlike and ignorant of consequences." William Ult Gladston said with a smile.
Although William Ult Gladstone was very polite on the surface, Emperor Hua saw that this guy was actually the same as the current British Prime Minister Benjamin Disraelli. Both of them were birds of a feather. You don’t want to be too stale with China now, but because the UK’s current economic problems are serious and its strength is limited. When you can easily display your muscles, you will not be like this.
However, after all, Emperor Hua had already practiced to a deeper cunning practice. He smiled slightly, stood up, and reached out to William Ult Gladstone, "Okay, I hope that after Mr. Wu formed a cabinet, the diplomatic relations between China and Britain can cross a new process."
William Ult Gladstone also heard that Emperor Hua did not value such private meetings, and he had no power now, but he still believed that Emperor Hua should be the key to his victory in the election. He did not know much about Emperor Hua, but William Ult Gladstone is a Chinese master and is very clear about the traditions and habits of the Chinese nation, knowing that the Han people are not a particularly conquering nation.
Emperor Hua asked Wang Zhankui to send William Ult Gladston out, and the cleaning here was soon completed. After the British royal officials arrived, everyone began to move.
"Your Majesty, what did the former British Prime Minister say just now?" Princess Katrina Kaif asked in the car.
The cute president smiled faintly, "He wants to reach a private agreement with me, and the United Kingdom and China each take a step back. The United Kingdom guarantees China's interests in Central Asia and Japan's Kyushu Island. China helps Britain gain control over Afghanistan."
Princess Katrina Kaif covered her mouth and smiled, "This person is really good at doing business. If this is really possible, I would be very happy. Unfortunately, he seems to be just a former prime minister, not the current prime minister of the United Kingdom. This blank check is a bit too big."
The cute president nodded and said, "Yes, I told him the same thing. After he took office, I hope the relationship between China and the United Kingdom can reach a higher level. If this person writes, please reply to me. You are better at such private matters."
"Why am I good at it? According to what Your Majesty said, it seems like I am very sinister." Princess Katrina Kaif said coquettishly.
The cute CEO smiled slightly, "It's not that you are insidious. In the eyes of ordinary people, politicians are insidious. However, in the eyes of politicians and politicians, capable politicians are not called insidious, but rather genius. You know, Benjamin Disraelli and William Ult Gladstone, these two British prime ministers, are idols of many politicians in later generations."
"Next generation?" Princess Katrina Kaif asked in confusion.
The cute CEO was surprised to let go, but he was not embarrassed and smiled and said, "Well, I think this is the case. There will definitely be many politicians in the future who appreciate them. At least, I really appreciate these two guys. They have made the British territory and dominance worldwide reach their peak."
Princess Katrina Kaifu said oh and smiled sweetly, "Then, if you look at it this way, I need to study these two people well, but I am more interested in how His Majesty resolves the relationship with Tsarist Russia now."
The cute president understood that Princess Katrina Kaf mentioned Tsarist Russia at this time to remind herself that if she really wanted to launch a full-scale war, how to buy, how to prepare strategic materials and human resources, it would definitely be very important, but in terms of diplomacy, it seems that the most important thing is the relationship with Tsarist Russia. If Tsarist Russia was pulled into the camp early by Britain and France and the three great powers jointly dealt with China, the Chinese would not be able to withstand it anyway.
The cute president did not directly answer Princess Katrina Kaf's words, but instead kept it a secret, "Please help me invite the Tsarist Russian Foreign Minister Duke Maxim Kanunikov. I also want to know how hatred Tsarist Russia has against China now."
"Okay, Your Majesty. I will arrange to send someone to send a post to invite you later." Princess Katrina Kaifu was in a refreshing mood. She had already come out a little from the tension of knowing that Emperor Hua was going to engage in such a big war, because Princess Katrina Kaifu felt that Emperor Hua did not cover her eyes because of the assassination. Emperor Hua made such a major decision after careful consideration. As long as it was decided by Emperor Hua, Princess Katrina Kaifu would spare no effort and support His Majesty without hesitation.
"Let Wu Tingfang go." Emperor Hua thought for a while.
"Okay." Princess Katrina Kaf knew that His Majesty asked Wu Tingfang to go to show respect. After all, Wu Tingfang is a second only to Zeng Jize among the diplomats of China in Europe, and is more familiar with envoys from various countries.
The cute CEO held Princess Katrina Kaif's hand, "I'm still because you will find an opportunity to persuade me to give up my idea. Now it seems that you have accepted my plan?"
Princess Katrina Kaf sighed softly and looked at Emperor Hua and said, "Your Majesty, to be honest, I still think our chances of victory are very low. It is very likely that when we directly contact the two super powers of Britain and France, we will join the traditional Ottoman Turkish Empire. If we take advantage of Tsarist Russia, or if we run out, another or even a few British-type brothers, how many enemies will we have to deal with at one time? What's more, we can't win the British alone."
