Chapter 1275 Is still a dear father (second update, please subscribe)
When the British were brooding over the "offence" of the Boers and loudly said that they wanted revenge, Emperor Zhu of the Ming Empire was meeting his old lover in Paris.

No, at this moment, they were there cheering the conflict in the Transvaal.

"Your Majesty, is this your gift?"

In the palace, Zhu Di looked at Emperor Zhu in front of him, and asked with some doubts.

"It's not a gift, it's just a mouthful. If we want to defeat the United Kingdom, we must do our best to weaken their strength, and the Transvaal is only the first step, the first step in weakening the country."

Emperor Zhu explained with a smile.

"But the population of the Transvaal is so small, even if they broke out with Britain, how could it weaken its power?"

Regarding Judy's judgment, Emperor Zhu didn't think there was anything unexpected. After all, the whole world had misjudged the Boers.

"The Boers...well, they're really not that many, but we have to note that maybe the Boers are from Holland, but they're definitely not the same as the Dutch."

After a pause, Emperor Zhu continued to explain.

"The British ignored the unique national characteristics of the Boers in South Africa. After more than 100 years of suffering, the Boers are far from being as mild-tempered as their Dutch relatives. Countless brutal wars with the natives have honed and reshaped their character. The Boers are conservative, hard-working, frugal, advocating force, and unwilling to accept alien rule. There is always a sense of pride in national identity. This is also the general character of those peoples in remote areas far from the centers of civilization, such as the western United States, western Australia, and northern Argentina. A painful lesson for people!"

With a slight smile, Emperor Zhu said.

"I believe that if the British want to conquer them, it will take at least two to three years and a military expenditure of more than [-] million pounds. By that time, we will be facing an opponent whose strength has been seriously depleted..."

Are the Boers really that fighting?

The British ignored the character of the Boers. It should be said that almost the whole world ignored this point. There was only one person who did not—the Emperor Zhu in front of him.

When looking at him.A "rumor" heard a few years ago in Judy's mind involuntarily emerged - at that time, someone suggested that in order to strengthen the relationship between the French Empire and the Ming Empire, he was expected to marry the princess of the Ming Empire. The mother was rejected. As for the reason for the rejection, it seems that the empress of the Ming Empire is a member of the Napoleon family. In order to avoid the possible harm caused by the marriage of close relatives, after all, there are lessons learned from the marriage of close relatives of the Spanish imperial family, so this reason It's normal.

However, it was also at that time that a secret began to spread in the upper class of Paris - Empress Eugenie was the lover of Emperor Zhu.

Mother is his lover?
And as early as during the Franco-Prussian War, he won the favor of his mother because he saved Paris, and they were lingering in the Louvre like glue. Some people even speculated that he, Emperor Napoleon V, was not the child of Emperor Napoleon III, because At that time, his father, Emperor Napoleon III, was in the fortress on the front line, and he was probably the blood of Emperor Zhu Da.

Judy really didn't know about this, and no one dared to talk about it.

Of course, there is a lot of gossip in front of the widow's family. In the past few years, I don't know how many people have rumored about Queen Eugenie's lover, all of them are scheming.

But it's definitely not as true as it says.

Zhu Di naturally did not dare to verify this matter, and even believed it in his heart, because he could see the joy and joy flashing in his mother's brow every time she received a letter from him, which was hard to see normally.

He even remembered that when he was a child, his mother had inadvertently revealed that his father knew him well and knew what toys he liked.

But God knows, at that time his father had passed away.And where did all his toys come from?They all came from Daming on the other side of the ocean.

Father... the toy his father gave him.The toys he played with when he was a child were, all, given by his father.

How is this possible?
Wasn't his father really his father?

Is Emperor Zhu really my biological father?
But all of this is just guesswork. As for the rumors outside the palace, as long as you don't explain them or ignore them, no one will care about them soon.

But...all the doubts were solved with the visit of Emperor Zhu this time—he was indeed the mother's lover.

As the emperor of the empire, Zhu Di knew about his staying at his mother's place.

Face the fact.Zhu Di panicked in his heart, but he still agreed in his heart while worrying. After all, like his brother Ou Ren, he has always regarded Emperor Zhu of Ming Dynasty as an idol. Who doesn't want to have a father who is both civil and military?

However, beating to death cannot be admitted, and absolutely cannot be brought out to speak out!
However, when seeing Emperor Zhu again, Zhu Di's eyes were a little awkward, and he didn't even bother to listen to what he had to say.He recalled that when he was young, he could always receive all kinds of toys from Daming, of course, and his letters, although his letters did not show much love, more of education, but he followed the guidance It is completely different from other people, and the emotions and longings revealed in the words are also undisguised.

Zhu Di also recalled that when her mother got along with Emperor Zhu, she was so happy that it was hard to hide. They were not just old friends, they were really lovers!

In fact, Zhu Di didn't reject her mother's private meeting with Emperor Zhu.Among European royal families, this is normal.

But this incident involved my life experience.

However, Judy was also a little flustered!This matter must not be aroused, and of course there is no way to stop it.

Hey, my father... seems to have no impression of me.

For this reason, Judy even ran to look at the portrait of Napoleon III, and compared it in the mirror.After comparing for a long time, Judy didn't find anything like him at all. His face shape and appearance completely inherited from his mother.

But he felt that his eyebrows and Ou Ren were a bit imaginative, and his mouth was more like Emperor Zhu.

After looking in the mirror for a long time, Judy came to a conclusion.

Napoleon III is not my real father!

But I am the emperor of the French Empire, this crown was passed down from my father to my brother, and my brother passed it on to me, well, my brother and I have the same mother, so this crown belongs to me.

Well, that's the reason...

However, my dear father has suffered a lot!
He was the only one who noticed things that the whole world didn't notice. No wonder my brother regarded him as an idol when he was alive.

My dad is so awesome!

For Zhu Di who "bereaved his father and brother" when he was young, he had always regarded Emperor Zhu as an idol, but now?It feels good to have an idol become a father!
"Well, Your Majesty, what should we do next?"

"Fire!"

Emperor Zhu smiled slightly.

"Although the British are now negotiating with the Transvaal, what is certain is that the negotiations are just buying time for them to mobilize their troops. What we need is to fight! By providing the Transvaal Weapons, let this war be fought more intensely, "

"Haha, I see, it's a bit like the British supported the Spaniards back then."

Judy clapped her hands and said a little excitedly.

"When Emperor Napoleon I occupied General Ya, the British provided weapons to the Spanish, which eventually led to the defeat of the French Empire in Spain. Now, we are just repeating it..."
