Hidden Dragon in Qing Dynasty

"Just how important is this state visit? I think other than those who are deliberately playing dumb, there's nothing that the people here aren't clear about!"

"Thousands of years of civilization in China, this is the first time an official diplomatic mission was dispatched to Europe, and the first time it was at the level of an emperor. This historical event is no less important to the Empire than the victory of the Crimean War!"

"The first stop of the Emperor of China was to come to our UK. This means that the strongest empire in the East has already acknowledged the status of our British Empire! This will help us to win the hearts and minds of the people of Europe and even the whole world! "

"It's not just a matter of face, it's also a matter of helping us rule Asia better! Don't you understand such a simple logic? "

"Enough!" Benjamin could no longer hold it in, he stood up from his seat and roared, "Could it be that there's something wrong with your eyes? Don't you see the series of negotiations between me and the Tongzhi Emperor? Is it not my prime minister who is trying? "

"You said that I have neglected internal affairs. Don't you think that the railway construction project that I have reached an agreement with Emperor Tongzhi is not to find the best investment project for the Empire's capital?"

"From Beijing to Shanghai, it connects China's railway investment from north to south. Don't you see how much wealth is contained in it? I truly regret letting you become a Minister of Finance. You aren't worthy, you aren't worthy at all! "

Benjamin has once again violated the rules of the debate, how can Gladstone let this go, "Is this the breakthrough in the internal affairs that you mentioned? Make those rich people richer? And to ignore the hardships of the lower classes? "

"Well, even if this is a good breakthrough, where is the agreement? I want to see a contract written in black and white! "We were established by business. Everything you say is unreliable without a contract!"

"What you said was simple. If you get the right to build the railway, wouldn't others say it? I also said that I could get it, and I still thought that Duke of Newcastle could get the right to build it! "

"Why did you drag me in when you had nothing to do?"

Gladstone ignored the Duke, his eyes were as angry as a lion's as he glared at Benjamin. "Without a contract, don't take it out as your own contribution!"

"Of course, negotiating with the Tongzhi Emperor cannot be wrong. But the little emperor does not have a personal authority after all, so many details and details on the governance would need to be discussed with the Qing Dynasty's and even the Chinese governments to be successful!" Su Yun said.

"Simply speaking, from countless reports, the Chinese are very good at infiltrating China's Jiangnan economy. Even the Chinese are taking over half of Southern China's banknote distribution rights …"

"If you want to build a railway, can you bypass the Chinese side? Without the support of such a large amount of local capital, you still want to build your own path? Dream on! "

"But look what you've done! From start to finish, he had refused to engage with the Chinese. The only time they had negotiated was because of the protests from all over Europe. What else did you have to be proud of? Where did your confidence come from? "

"Also, let me ask you, what happened to the attack on the Chinese people? The London Police Department is so heavily guarded, how on earth did the French and Russia get so close to Xiao Letian? "

"What about that fire in the East Palace?"

Benjamin's face was livid with anger. You are framing me! Are you framing me for attacking the Chinese? This is ridiculous! "

"Haha …" Did I say anything false? Did I accuse you of being the mastermind? Why are you confessing to yourself so easily? Could it be that you have something up your sleeve? "

Catching the opponent's weakness would mean certain death. Gladstone shrugged and pretended to be humorous, "Actually, I just wanted to say that your control is not good. What I want to attack is your ability …" "Why did you directly push yourself onto the mastermind?"

"Could it be that you are really the mastermind?"

"Enough!" The flustered and exasperated Benjamin shouted, "This is the Congress, not a place with the power to talk nonsense. I have to ask you, what is the purpose of you waving the flag for the Chinese?"

"Did you take bribes from the Chinese? Otherwise, why do you speak up for them when there are no conflicts of interest? "

Shh … The members of Tory Party finally found an opportunity to refute as everyone booed. At this moment, the Chancellor and the Chancellor no longer had the strength to maintain order, because they had just discovered that the gavel had been broken, a crack extending from the bottom to the top.

"The Prime Minister is right! Check the accounts, we apply for verification of Gladstone's property... We want to impeach Gladstone for colluding with foreign powers! "

Even if Gladstone was vilified to this extent, he did not put a penny in his pocket. All the money provided by the Chinese was in the form of political contributions to the foundation, and that was perfectly legal.

In fact, this wasn't a secret. It was common for British parties to accept political contributions from foreign forces, especially foreign countries such as France, Prussia, and Russia, who also wanted to bring their close British politicians to power. When the time came, they would naturally benefit from foreign affairs.

In fact, Benjamin had also received a lot of overseas donations, especially from the big Jewish family consortia in Europe. This was a secret in the political world, as long as this money did not enter his personal pocket, he could not rely on corruption.

Benjamin did not want to pursue this issue any further, so he answered Gladstone's question straightforwardly, "Whether or not you accept the bribes of the Chinese people, there will naturally be a law to judge you. I do not want to say too much … But I have to tell you one thing, I refused to interact with the Chinese only because I am certain that the future of the Chinese will be threatened by my British Empire! "

"Don't you have the ability to observe? Xiao Letian's Chinese development is so fast, could it be that you can't see the threat inside? "

"This person is born to be a spoiler of order. He has a very rare strategy of deceiving everyone. It has only been a few years, ah? "Then he will be able to tie with the France and defeat the army in the Far East of Sha Russia …"

"Moreover, even such a large empire is unable to stop him, and can only choose to cooperate with him …" Do you not feel any danger from such people? "

"This is a saboteurs of the Order. He is good at breaking the balance and taking advantage of the chaos!" This kind of person is our threat to rule Asia! It must be strangled in the bud! "

"So what do you want?" Gladstone asked, "Killed him in this diplomatic event? Or would you like to organize another expedition to Asia? "

"Of course you can't assassinate Xiao Letian, because you know very well, the reason for this State visit is because of our respected royal family, and the reason for this visit was because of the Queen's invitation. If you kill Xiao Letian, that would be opposing the Queen!"

"So you're going to start a war, right? There is only one reason why you are refusing to interact with the Chinese right now, and that is because in your heart, you have already identified them as enemies, or are you certain that they will die? "
