Chapter 1562 Farewell to Queen Sophia

The merchant fleet heading to the West will set sail again according to the schedule, and Sophia and his party who are returning to England will be accompanying the fleet.Near Tianjinwei Wharf, there is an ironclad ship moored on the sea, as well as many merchant ships, several sailing warships, and supply ships.

The dock area was crowded with people, and many common people came to join in the fun.

However, there are also people who really bid farewell to Sofia and his party.

Chu Yun brought a group of officials to Tianjin Wei to see him off in person, as well as the permanent ambassador of Britain and a group of related people.

Li Jinde's family also came to Tianjin Wei, and Sir Greenville and Mrs. Grace paid farewell to the new Queen.

"Sir Greenville, do you really intend to continue living here for a few years?" the English envoy asked Sir Greenville.

"No way, my wife, daughter, and granddaughter are all here. Originally, I was loyal to King Charles and worked for him, but now that King Charles is no longer here, I can only retire." Sir Greenville gave up and continued to set foot in England Parliament business.

Originally, with his influence and identity, it was absolutely a simple matter to obtain a seat in the new Congress.

However, after the murder of Charles I, Lord Greenville's interest in politics waned.He has a large manor in England, his son-in-law is a big Chinese businessman, and his family has only one granddaughter, so he doesn't have to worry about food and drink at all, and even if he retires, he won't have any problems.

"At first I thought this place was wild, but I didn't expect it to be more prosperous than any other place. Tea and porcelain also come from here. Sir Greenville, it's good for you to stay here."

After visiting the eastern capital, the new group of English envoys felt that Sir Greenville's life here was more enjoyable than returning to England.At least the European side is constantly fighting, and this side is peaceful, with no strong enemies or large-scale wars.

"Your Majesty, you must take care of your health after you return to England, and you can't continue to be cynical." Selina came to see Sophia off.

She came to the capital on the same day as Sophia, but the difference was that she stayed here, and Sophia was about to return to England for a sense of mission.

Princess Sofia, no, it should be said that Queen Sofia wore the dress she brought back from England, as if she had changed.

"Selina, may God bless you to be safe and happy in the East forever. I will cherish our time here." Sophia's tone was flat, but Selina could hear that the mood behind her tone was not like this.

"Your Majesty, maybe it was wrong for me not to force you to return to England a few years ago... No, it is not necessarily wrong... If you had returned to England then, you might be killed now..." Sir Greenville said as the first The head of a group of missions, he chose to let Sophia and Selina stay in the east, but changed the fate of the two people.

Sir Greenville has always been brooding about this matter, but he didn't know if what he did at the time would be the best choice at the time.

"Sir Greenville, you don't have to feel guilty, I believe this is God's guidance." Sophia said.

On the pier, a dozen workers struggled to push a two-seater car onto a small boat and onto the ironclad ship.This car, given to Sophia by Chu Yun, is naturally Sophia's private property.Chu Yun was also not afraid of leaking the technology of the car.First of all, no one dares to dismantle the queen's property for research. Secondly, a small car involves internal combustion engine, rubber, steel, gasoline, precision parts and other related technologies. When the West can manufacture cars, I'm afraid There are already swarms of propeller planes overwhelming the sky.

The siren sounded on the pier, notifying the queen and others to prepare to board the ship.

"Mr. Chu, will you come to Europe in the future?" Sophia asked Chu Yun before she was about to board the ship, with some reluctance in her eyes.

"If there is a chance in the future, maybe I will go." Chu Yun said.

"Then, I'm leaving. Thank you for your hospitality these days. I hope we can see each other again one day." Sophia couldn't maintain a close relationship with Chu Yun in front of the English envoys. She is now the Queen of the United Kingdom, and Chu Yun is in an equal position.

"If you really can't hold on, you can come back." Chu Yun said.

"En." Sophia turned her back to Chu Yun, with tears in the corners of her eyes.

She was to take the English and Scottish envoys to board the boat, and then to the ironclad.

"My lord consul, thank you for being considerate of us people in England, Scotland and Ireland, and willing to let our Queen return to England. God will bless you for your tolerance." Xiang Chu, a member of the English envoy team Yun said respectfully.

"I don't care if God will bless her or not. I let her go back because she wants to go back. If the same thing happened to her as Charles I, my army will flatten England." Chu Yun said coldly said.

"We will do our best to ensure the safety of Queen Sophia, and we will never let the royal family be harmed again. To tell you the truth, Congress has passed the establishment of a professional royal guard to protect the safety of members of the royal family." The member was sweating profusely, obviously He was very afraid of Chu Yun's threat.

Chu Yun's threat is not aimless, but something that can be done completely. There is still an Eastern Legion in Portsmouth!
Although he was threatened by Chu Yun before leaving, the threat was after all for the safety of the new Queen Sophia. The envoys did not have a bad impression of Chu Yun. Instead, they were full of respect for the strong.

Sophia led everyone to the main ironclad ship moored on the sea.

The first generation main ironclad ship was named "Huo Qubing" by Chu Yun, and the other sister ship under construction is "Wei Qing", commemorating the two generals of the Western Han Empire, Wei Qing and Huo Qubing .

Queen Sophia is accompanied by the maid who came with her a few years ago.

They were originally servants of the princess, but now they have become servants of the queen.

"Your Majesty, are you really not going to tell Mr. Chu about that? If he knows, maybe..." a maid said to Sophia.

"He will know in the future." Queen Sophia looked at the coast. Due to the distance, the figures on the pier were already a little unclear.

"Start the ship!" Black smoke rose from the huge chimney of the ironclad ship, and the heavy hull set sail under the power of propellers and sails, and the fleet began to leave the ancient kingdom.
