Hidden Dragon in Qing Dynasty

C2233 Benjamin's helplessness

There was nothing that could describe Benjamin's anger at the moment. He was a fifty year old old old politician with a lot of experience in politics, the one who activated the First Opium War, Melbourne, and the one who initiated the external phase, the one who taught the most was the external phase.

When the North America was in the midst of the Civil War, Benjamin had also firmly stood by the southern side, and had given the southern side the greatest possible support.

This was a crazy colonialist, his heart was filled with the desire to control the whole world, his thoughts were very conservative, and he even had a good impression of the slave system.

He was a complete war maniac and loved to settle disputes once and for all by military means. If not for the stability of the British political system and the great power of the Queen, who knew what the political maniacs would have done.

How could Gladstone find supporters against him in the Council? It was related to Benjamin who valued diplomacy and despised internal affairs.

Damn it, the limited funds are all used to expand the colonies, the investments in the interior are compressed again and again, it's not that big of an exaggeration to say that people don't want to live their lives, look at the Irish Great Famine, there must be some evil that these colonialist created.

How could such a person take this lying down? He would definitely return the humiliation Xiao Letian gave him a thousand times over.

Montauban looked at the frenzied and furious Prime Minister, his heart filled with uncontrollable panic. In this day and age, there was a natural fear of England, not to mention the Prime Minister of a country.

"The Prime Minister... I... I have to remind you, no matter how despicable and shameless Xiao Letian is, he has always been favored by the Queen. We have to admit that this fellow is a genius at flattering others! "

With that one sentence, Benjamin's fury was completely vented out, and he immediately sat down on the sofa weakly, as if he was stabbing a needle into a balloon.

"Give me …" Pour me a glass of wine! " Benjamin said powerlessly.

Montauban hurriedly poured the Prime Minister a glass of tranquil gin, then added two large illnesses, sending a chill down his throat. The Prime Minister finally calmed down.

"Yeah, you're right, Xiao Letian is indeed a genius. Although he is my enemy, but we have to admit that he is very capable!"

"Who in the world would think of using a dead prince as a fulcrum to pry open the Queen's gate? Even if someone had thought about it, who would have dared to? "

"Who else in Europe would dare to make a fuss about the death of her husband, who wouldn't forgive her own son? But Xiao Letian dared, not only did he dare, he even dared to succeed? "

"What does this mean? This means that Xiao Letian has a terrifying level of insight into the emotions of people's hearts. He could discover some details that we cannot detect at all. "

"When I was in the carriage earlier, I realized that the Prince has already been dead for eight years. A whole eight years! What can a man bear grudges for eight years? "Not to mention, his own son …"

"Today, I found out that the king has already forgiven her. She has already passed through the river of sorrow, but it is precisely because of her face, or some inexplicable emotion, that made the queen unable to admit the change in her emotions …"

"At this moment, whoever is braver and helps the Queen build this stage, she will definitely go downhill. This was supposed to happen naturally …" Why didn't I notice? Why haven't I seen any change in the queen's mood in eight years? "

A lot of things are not clear, you do not understand the reason, you will feel very mysterious.

But sometimes, when things become clear to you and you know the rules that govern it, you will instead feel more mysterious and fearful.

He already understood what Xiao Letian meant by his last gift, but the more he understood, the more afraid he became.

was the first to pick a peach, then he would be number one. No matter who wanted to hit the prince card in the future, it would be useless, as Xiao Letian had already snatched away the Queen's favor.

However, the first person to eat a crab was not a simple person. This required a lot of courage, patience, and skill. If one wasn't someone who had thoroughly studied crabs, who would dare to attack?

Xiao Letian's bold move seemed like he had almost angered the Queen, but it was actually all based on his accurate analysis. Without full assurance, he would absolutely not dare to make a move.

From this point, Xiao Letian was too terrifying!

The two of them were silent for a moment, then Benjamin spoke in a low voice: "All previous plans have been abolished, who can physically destroy a queen's friend? In any case, no one in the UK or back will dare to do so! "

"All the assassination plans have been scrapped, and the plan to fake pirate attacks on the high seas has been cancelled... I can't sacrifice all of our political lives together with Xiao Letian's dog life! "

"Prime Minister, don't forget your promise. In order to help you, I have already staked all of my reputation. I believe that tomorrow the newspaper will definitely write about me as a stupid pig, and all of my fame will be invested in it. I cannot fail!"

"Don't worry, since I've promised, I will do it. If one day you drink Prussia and there's a war, I will share my British intelligence with you as soon as possible!"

"Furthermore, I can guarantee that you will be the first one to obtain all of Xiao Letian's information … "Heh heh, although I can't kill him, but you French people can!"

"As long as his blood does not remain in the land of England!"

Saying that, Benjamin retorted, "Are you kidding me? "You can be considered a high-class noble of France. If your ambassador is allowed to exert some influence, would the European newspapers not give you face?"

"It's just a small conflict, how can I really discredit you?"

"Oh, my Prime Minister!" "Ask your subordinates, Sir Gordon is just outside, he was the one who told me the news!"

At that moment, there were still many British officials guarding the residence in Downing Street, all of them were Benjamin's direct descendants. They were anxious to know the next mission, so none of them went home to rest.

After Sir Gordon, who was previously a governor in China, heard the summons, he immediately walked in. When Benjamin asked him about it, Gordon frowned and said.

"That's right, Xiao Letian is being clever!"

Then, Gordon recounted the details of how he accidentally saw the Chinese gold coins.

"All of the reporters who participated in the interviews received Xiao Letian's bribe, and it was even given in the name of the fare.

"It's very hard to consider a gold coin as a bribe, especially when it's a souvenir gold coin that has the meaning of collecting. It's even harder to define it …"
