Chapter 901 The Eastern King Has Many Concubines

"Princess, you won't get lost this time, right?" Seeing that Princess Sophia recognized her with her accent, Chu Yun didn't need to hide it.

"Aren't you a Cossack?" Princess Sofia couldn't move her little head, she was so confused by the current situation.

"Please sit down, let me explain the current situation to you." Chu Yun made a gesture of invitation.

Anyone who encountered such a situation would be confused, so Chu Yun had no choice but to patiently explain the ins and outs of the future.

After knowing that Chu Yun was going out in disguise to avoid causing commotion that day, Princess Sophia finally understood.

Thinking of how she was pointing at the tip of Chu Yun's nose to give orders at that time, Princess Sophia's cheeks flushed slightly.How dare he refer to the manager of such a powerful empire.

However, Chu Yun didn't seem to care about what happened yesterday, but chatted with everyone.

"Li Jinde, it's a good thing that you went to Europe for trade this time. I hope our businessmen maintain an adventurous spirit and explore overseas markets." Chu Yun said to Li Jinde.

If it weren't for Li Jinde's whim to go to the West, the next series of things would not have happened.

"The military master is serious. I just went to see what the British sailors said about the Western Ocean on a whim. I never thought that there were so many people in the Western Ocean. On the way, I passed through the waters of Mughal, Ottoman and other countries. It is said that they also have thousands of people. Ten thousand people." Li Jinde said.

"It's rare to be able to act on a whim. This kind of spirit is rare. In particular, China has a vast land and abundant resources, and we are self-reliant. Under such circumstances, we lack the motivation to explore overseas." Chu Yun said.

Sometimes a large land and rich resources may not be a 100% perfect thing. Europe will only start the era of great navigation when it is poor, and China occupies a good river basin. You can live a good life with yourself and develop overseas. Willingness is not strong.

"Why do you speak English? Although it is very strange." Princess Sophia asked.

"Secret." Chu Yun thought to himself, he lived in an era when the West was powerful, and the foreign language he learned was naturally English. When the East became powerful in this world, it was the Westerners who had to learn foreign languages.

Seeing that Chu Yun didn't want to say more, Princess Sophia didn't ask.However, Chu Yun was able to communicate with her directly, which made her feel a lot more intimate, and she would not think that Dongfang's master was a high-ranking existence in robes.

"What do you gain from coming to the East this time?" Chu Yun asked.

"Let me count the wires, street lamps, trains, Hanfu, food, and sea monsters." Princess Sophia counted.

"A monster in the sea?" Chu Yun asked suspiciously.

"Yes, it's a smoking iron ship, and it's very long, it's a strange monster." Princess Sophia gestured.

"Are you talking about a steamship?" Chu Yun himself did not think that when the royal envoys arrived, they would meet the cable-laying ship Dongfang.

"Is it called a steamship? What kind of principle?" Princess Sophia asked.

"This can't be explained for a while. Sir Greenville, how about you?" Chu Yun asked Greenville who actually managed the affairs of the mission.

"My opinion is the same as that of Her Majesty, the East is really a magical place, and there are so many things we don't understand. I think the British Kingdom is honored to have this opportunity to visit the East." Sir Greenville said.

"And this girl Selina?" Chu Yun looked at Selina.

"People, the people here are very different from us in the West. Not only their appearance, but also their personality. People here may be more gentle and introverted. Of course, I don't mean everyone, but a general temperament." Selina replied.

This girl sees things from a different angle than ordinary people.

Chu Yun observed the words and expressions, and found that when Selina was speaking, the peripheral vision in her eyes would inadvertently diverge in the direction of Li Jinde, and she might not even be aware of it.

There's something about these two.

Chu Yun seemed to have noticed something interesting.

"Then does the man next to you have this kind of character, the character you described?" Chu Yun deliberately asked Selina.

"Yes." Selina admitted generously.

It's a pity that Li Jinde couldn't understand the conversation between them.

The military master is really good, and he can get acquainted with Westerners so quickly, and he doesn't need to rely on translation.

In Li Jinde's view, Chu Yun is simply a god-man, omnipotent.

But in fact, if it was not the British envoys, but the French or Spanish envoys, Chu Yun probably could only stare blankly.

"I heard that your calf was injured. Since it was injured in China, how should I compensate you?" Chu Yun asked.

"It was my own fault that caused the injury. How can I ask you to talk about compensation?" Selina said quickly.

"I think you may really ask me for something soon." Chu Yunruo pointed out.

"Master of the East, have you really accomplished the feats surpassing Caesar and Alexander as in the legend?"

After Sophia knew that Chu Yun was easy to talk, she lost the restraint she had when they first met, and wanted to confirm whether Chu Yun was as great as she had heard from Li Jinde.

"Caesar and Alexander, they did make achievements in the military, they were great conquerors, but we have already had such people in our civilization." Chu Yun said.

"Do you know Caesar and Alexander? Are there such conquerors in the East?" Princess Sophia asked curiously.

"Yes, between Caesar and Alexander, there was a king named Qin Shihuang who wiped out other countries in the east, unified the east, and has continued until now." Ella said for Chu Yun.

"Qin Shihuang?" Princess Sophia repeated.

Chu Yun nodded silently.In his era, when Qin Shihuang was discussed, the most intense discussion was burning books and burying Confucianism, but in fact Qin Shihuang's greatest contribution was to instill the concept of great unification, and established the most basic territory and sense of identity of the Chinese nation. Later generations continued to expand.

"You look like us from Britain." Princess Sophia refocused her attention on Ella. She had rarely seen a woman who was more beautiful than herself.

"I was born in the East," Ella said.

She really didn't lie, Chu Yun summoned her to this world, she has been in the east, has integrated into the life here, married and had children, no different from the people here.

"The influence of the East is really great... So are you the queen? Or the concubine of the master of the East? I heard that the kings of the East have many concubines besides the queen. For example, the kings of the Mughal Empire have many loves." Concubine, their status has changed because of the king's preference." Princess Sophia thought of the rumors she heard from the East India Company.

"You..." Seeing Princess Sofia mentioning this matter suddenly, Ella looked at Princess Sofia warily.
