Passenger ships are moored at the port. Although the war is imminent, the port is still bustling. Princess Ililovna noticed that there are a large number of ships flying the American flag entering and leaving the port. Obviously the United States is the largest trading partner of the United Kingdom at this time. Not only American ships, but also Ships from many South American countries are also entering and leaving the port.

Since Britain is surrounded by the sea and has many ports, a large number of naval warships must be invested in completely blocking Britain. This is something China cannot do, so China did not blockade British ports.

The passenger ship berthed at the port of London. Since Princess Yililovna was visiting secretly this time, there was no welcoming ceremony. The British side only sent a dozen diplomats to welcome Princess Yililovna and Cao Ayou to Buckingham Palace.

Since Cao Ayou is not a relative of the British royal family, she was arranged to be sent to the National Post House not far from Buckingham Palace, and Princess Ililovna was taken inside Buckingham Palace to meet Queen Victoria II of England.

Victoria II likes Princess Ililovna very much. Although Victoria II is the Queen of England, emotionally, he is no different from ordinary people. He naturally loves his youngest daughter's daughter.

Victoria II was already bedridden at this time. After all, he was an 83-year-old man. He fell from the carriage again and fell hard. There will be no tomorrow.

When Victoria II saw Princess Ililovna, she couldn't help crying, and Princess Ililovna also burst into tears. If it was an ordinary family, the sons of Victoria II would be Princess Ililovna's uncle They will persuade the two people not to be sad, but in the British royal family, there is no such scene, Victoria II's sons are not around at all, and doctors are all around her.

The doctor hurriedly advised Queen Victoria II not to cry, saying that such mood swings were not good for her body. Victoria II was indeed one of the most famous queens in British history, and she had a strong ability to control emotions. Hearing the doctor's advice, she immediately Stop crying, calm down, and chat with Princess Ililovna.

Since Victoria II was chatting with Princess Ililovna, she naturally wouldn't talk about state affairs, so she naturally asked about Princess Ililovna's marriage. Princess Ililovna blushed and hesitated, Victoria II Of course she knew that Princess Yililovna loved Lin Yuan, so she teased her with a smile.

The two met for about half an hour, but the doctor next to them stopped talking, saying that the conversation took too long and it was not good for Queen Victoria II's health, so Princess Ililovna had to leave.

Princess Ililovna met Victoria II, and then she went to see Victoria II’s son, the British Crown Prince Edward VII. If calculated according to seniority, Edward VII is Princess Ililovna’s uncle. Now Victoria II In this physical condition, Edward VII will be crowned King of England sooner or later.

The United Kingdom is a country with a constitutional monarchy. The king only exists as a national symbol and does not participate in the decision-making and operation of major national affairs. Therefore, it seems that the attitude of the British king is irrelevant. In fact, this is wrong. In the United Kingdom, the king has a very strong power. The role of leadership and the king's opinion can influence a large number of people, so Princess Ililovna is going to meet Edward VII to find out about Edward VII's attitude.

The relationship between Princess Ililovna and Edward VII is mediocre. Princess Ililovna even had a bad impression of Edward VII when she was young. The reason is very simple. Edward VII is a philanderer. Many ladies have had affairs with him, and he even had sex with a 46-year-old spinster.

For a girl longing for pure love, people like Edward VII are scumbags, so when Princess Ililovna was in England, she didn't talk to Edward VII at all, and Edward VII loved herself. My niece didn't feel anything special either.

The two sides met under this feeling. They had no feelings to talk about, they could only talk about state affairs. In fact, with Edward VII's shrewdness, he had already guessed the purpose of Princess Ililovna's visit this time, and just waited for Ililo Princess Funa speaks provocatively.

Princess Ililovna said directly: "Uncle, now that China has controlled the European continent, how do you think Britain should respond?"

"Eve, I knew you were here to surrender, so let me tell you clearly that Britain will not surrender."

"Uncle, is this what you mean, or what the capitalists mean?"

"I am the Crown Prince of England, and what a capitalist means is what I mean." Edward VII's words were impeccable, sealing everything that Princess Ililovna could say.

Princess Ililovna had nothing to say and could only leave. The British side originally prepared a residence for Princess Ililovna in Buckingham Palace, but Princess Ililovna went to the post house instead of staying. Cao Ayou is relatively close, and it is more convenient to exchange opinions.

Princess Yililovna returned to the post house. Cao Ayou told Princess Yililovna that when she was visiting Victoria II and Edward VII, she had a meeting with the special envoy of British Prime Minister Earl of Salisbury. He expressed Lin Yuan's intention to persuade him to surrender, but Earl Salisbury's special envoy told him solemnly that Britain would never surrender unless Lin Yuan really attacked the British mainland and occupied every inch of British land.

Princess Ililovna also told Cao Ayou what Edward VII said about "will not surrender". After the two discussed this way, no matter from the point of view of the British royal family or the British government, Britain would not surrender, forcing them to surrender. The attempt to surrender simply did not work.

Princess Ililovna discussed with Cao Ayou and decided to stay in England for a while. If the British side does not change its position, Princess Ililovna and Cao Ayou will return to the Netherlands. They don't need to worry about the subsequent war up.

Early the next morning, Princess Ililovna had just woken up when an attendant came to report: "The French negotiating mission arrived in London at four o'clock in the morning this morning and formally initiated negotiations to persuade Britain to surrender."

Princess Ililovna was taken aback, why did the French come to join in the fun?The arrival of the French was definitely not Lin Yuan's idea. If this matter had something to do with Lin Yuan, he would definitely inform her.

Princess Ililovna hurriedly sent her subordinates to inquire about the content of the negotiations between France and the United Kingdom. At this time, Cao Ayou also came to discuss this matter with Princess Ililovna. After all, Cao Ayou is a more experienced diplomat. He proposed a terrible My guess is that France wants to use negotiations to reach a secret alliance with Britain.

Princess Yililovna expressed doubts about Cao Ayou's conjecture. The French president proposed to send troops to France.
