Hidden Dragon in Qing Dynasty

The Victorian era was the pride of the British people. The Queen was irreplaceable in their hearts, so looking at these citizens who came out to welcome them despite the dense rain, the feeling in the heart of the Emperor Tongzhi, who was sitting in the carriage, filled his heart.

That's right, the Tongzhi Emperor had also accompanied the Queen here today, it could be seen how much the Queen valued Zai Chun, even such a shameful debate in the House of Commons did not avoid him. Of course, the Queen also wanted to rope in the Tongzhi Emperor, in her heart, she had always placed great importance on the construction of that railway.

How to ensure that Benjamin could continue to work with the Tongzhi Emperor after he stepped down from the throne was a big problem. If there was no other way, they could only let the Queen step in as a cushion.

Zai Chun looked through the window at the excited crowd. Their clothes were all wet from the rain and he didn't care at all. No matter how cold the autumn wind was, it would not extinguish the fire in their hearts.

This was a completely different atmosphere from the atmosphere in the country. In Beijing, the officials of the cultural relics department and the commoners would always look at the emperor with fear and trepidation when they saw his expression. They were trembling in fear, as if they were afraid that the emperor would cut off their heads in the next second.

The Emperor also enjoyed the fear of others, as if only by making them fear would he realize how stable his world was.

But there was also the Ryukyu in Britain, so Zai Chun couldn't see that kind of expression on his face. He could only see the heartfelt love, a love that came from the soul.

What else could he think other than jealousy? Without a comparison, there would be no harm. Zai Chun suddenly felt gratitude towards his master in his heart. If not for his master bringing him out, how could he have felt such a completely different feeling?

Just as Zai Chun was thinking about all these, the Gold Carriage finally stopped at the entrance of the Capitol Building. The imperial guards quickly lined up into two rows, and then the servants in royal robes ran out from the back of the line, opening up black umbrellas, and opened up a corridor to protect themselves from the rain.

The reporters, who were stuck at the entrance, all dispersed. Dozens of cameras pressed down on the shutter, recording this moment in history.

When Tongzhi supported the grandmother down the carriage, the atmosphere became even more lively, and the thunderous applause became louder and louder.

The smiling queen walked up the stairs, and just as she was about to enter the Capitol Building, she turned around and waved to the crowd, the atmosphere became even more lively.

The reporters dared to snatch the prime minister, but they dared not ask the queen any questions. After taking off their hats, bowing and saluting, they would take photos without stopping and record every scene on the scene. They would rely on their own eyes to observe and analyze everything in the scene.

Who dared to stop the Queen from asking questions? No one dared to be so disrespectful, not even if there were no guards.

At this time, the Capitol Building already knew of the news, the people did not dare believe their own ears, and immediately swarmed out like a swarm of bees. The representatives from the House of Commons also let Benjamin go, all of them came out to welcome the Queen.

When they saw the Queen coming, they clapped excitedly and took off their hats to salute. Very quickly, even Prince Edward who was resting on the second floor ran down to greet his mother.

"Dear God, why did the Queen come to Congress on the spur of the moment? Could it be that the situation has changed? "

"I don't know, but the queen's expression is still very relaxed. If I'm not wrong, the queen might be here to mediate the conflict. Who knows whose side the queen is on …"

"Why did you bring the Tongzhi Emperor? Is it really good to let the Emperor of Great Qing see this? "

The crowd discussed quietly, but very quickly no one spoke, because Edward, Benjamin, together with Gladstone and the various speakers had already went up to welcome them.

"Your Majesty, your Majesty the Emperor of Great Qing Kingdom … I never thought that the two of you would be able to come to the National Assembly. It was too hasty. I didn't organize the welcoming ceremony. Please forgive me! " The president said apologetically.

"It doesn't matter, I just came here on the spur of the moment, I should be the one apologizing …" I have long promised His Majesty the Emperor of the Great Qing that I would come to see a real debate in the council. In order to ensure the authenticity of the debate, I did not inform everyone in advance! "

"How is it? Have my Disraeli and Gladstone had an outcome? "Let's go to the House of Commons and discuss it in detail …"

As soon as these words left his mouth, all the veterans present were stunned. According to the customs of the empire, the king and queen would not appear in the House of Commons. They would only sit in the House of Lords.

Is the Queen changing the rules of history today? However, who would dare to refute? At this moment, only the leader was leading the way.

A group of people escorted the queen and Tongzhi the emperor to the House of Commons. When the queen brought the emperor to sit on the main platform, they immediately saw the mallet that had already been cracked.

Queen Victoria immediately laughed, "Oh, dear Majesty, did you see that? "Even the gavel that was used to maintain order was broken. From this, we can see that the debate just now was full of the smell of gunpowder …"

"Please show the record of the debate to His Majesty the emperor of the Great Qing …"

Only the Queen and Tongzhi were whispering to each other as they read the records. Whether there was still laughter or not.

The rest of them, including Prince Edward, could only stand around and wait.

Zai Chun's current English was already quite good, he was able to understand 90% of the shorthand words and sentences, and even the rare and obscure words, were suddenly enlightened under the Queen's explanation.

Through the words on the paper, all sorts of feelings welled up in Emperor Tongzhi's heart. This was a fight to the death! It's even more brutal than the internal strife within the imperial court in the Forbidden City! "

After half an hour, the Queen finally put down the record and looked up at the crowd calmly. The smile on her face gradually faded as she said, "So, the debate has come to an end. There's only a vote left?"

Duke of Newcastle hurriedly took a step forward. "Yes, Your Majesty, we only need to vote!"

The Queen nodded, "Then let's start the vote by show of hands …"

"Huh?" The Duke was stunned. "Didn't His Majesty say something?"

Queen Victoria frowned. "How can I interfere with the Assembly's decision?" Duke Xie, please speak your mind! "

Duke of Newcastle was immediately embarrassed to the point that he was sweating. He turned his head and waved his hand, and all the six hundred members of the House of Commons returned to their seats. Under the orders of the Speaker, they carried out the most important voting.

Everyone sneaked glances at, only to realize that his face was as pale as ash.

Zai Chun, the little emperor, had never seen such a scene. In his heart, he had always thought that the Queen must have some sort of preference towards the Congress, as she would definitely speak up and express her attitude, which would affect the final vote.

But he never thought that things would go the other way. The Queen never expressed any attitude from beginning to end, this kind of extreme respect for the rules really shook Tongzhi's heart.
