Chapter 708 Worries about Vietnam

Dream Castle

Chang'an Palace

The Chang'an Palace is one of the four halls behind the dream castle. It is located in the East Palace together with the Xianju Hall where King Li Fushou lives on a daily basis. It is the daily residence of Queen Gu Liuyan. It has a deep courtyard and a lot of palaces.

The news that the third prince Li Siyuan was back spread throughout Chang'an Palace like the wind. All the young princes and princesses rushed over, "Hello, third brother", "Good luck to third brother", "Good luck to third brother", and "Please pay tribute to third brother" kept calling, which was very lively.

Li Siyuan was intercepted in the garden. He seemed to be very brotherly at this moment and brought gifts to his younger brothers and sisters, nothing more than lanterns, folding fans, geisha dolls, etc. from Fusang Kingdom. He was sent to someone later.

After a sensation

The queen's personal maid came to communicate, and Li Siyuan got rid of a group of beads, sorted out his military uniforms, and stepped into the hall with a majestic guidance.

"My son wishes you a blessing to your mother." Li Siyuan saluted respectfully.

He could not kneel down and bow to the ground in a military uniform.

Gu Liuyan looked at her tall son with loving eyes and said, "No gift, sit next to her mother. I haven't seen these many days. Yuan'er seems to have cleared a little, and her face is tanned, but she looks more energetic."

"Mother, my son misses you so much!"

This sentence made Gu Liuyan burst into tears, and he stretched out his hand to caress Li Siyuan's face, and said with a trembling voice. "Son is the flesh on his mother's body. How can the queen of mother let you leave you? Born in the royal family, you can enjoy endless wealth and honor, but there are also heavier natural morals on your shoulders. You are the crown prince, and you are born to suffer more hardships and more burdens than ordinary people. The queen of mother is a wife who has no knowledge. Even if you feel sorry for her, you dare not violate the saint's will. Your father is a god-like figure. What he says and what he does is right, and you need to understand it carefully."

This was not what Li Siyuan wanted to hear. He even fantasized about pestering his mother and saying, could he go to the chore on his body?

Never thought

He was blocked before he could even say anything, and he didn't think about it;

My mother has been in charge of the harem for many years, but what kind of people and things have I never seen?

"Mother, I want to stay for a long time when I come back this time and do my best to be filial to you and your father. As the saying goes, my parents are not traveling far away, and I can still read and practice calligraphy in the palace and practice my skills."

"Son, what are your father's plans?"

"My mother, please tell me. I just met my tenth brother. He didn't know how to speak when I set sail. This time I came back, I was called "Sanguo". He was still pretty and asked me for candy!"

"Hmph, why can't you tell me if you can't see me? Your father hasn't arrived in Chang'an Palace for more than a week."

Having said this

Queen Gu Liuyan looked unhappy on her face, and the atmosphere in the hall suddenly became cold.

Li Siyuan was about to ask, and Mrs. Xia Guan and Mrs. Qiu Yue, who were sitting next to the queen, waved their hands quickly, asking him not to mention this, and would only make the queen angry.

In fact, it is not just the Queen of the East Palace who is angry, but the Sisters of the West Palace who is fond of Nicole and the Fiona are even more angry.

After counting on his fingers, His Majesty the King hasn't been there for more than ten days, which was unimaginable before.

The Holy Family has been lost... As long as you think of this, the Nicole sisters are going crazy. They hate the little fairy Sophia even more from their hearts, and even hate Fan Zhongzhai.

Recently, an order was reported in the palace;

Baron Li Yong lived in the world and was concerned about the court. He now offered 40,000 square kilometers of Eritrea land. This sincere loyalty to the kingdom is rare and can be used as an example. The king is generous and gave it a gift to the Viscount Humen who inherited the inheritance and obtained a fief to commend it.

There was also Lei Xiaopeng, the commander of the Somalia Prefecture Garrison, who was a hero. He had been in charge of Africa for more than ten years and had expanded his territory and made great contributions. He was appointed as the Viscount of Xi'an and was inherited and granted a fief to commend him.

In addition to commending the contribution of Li Yong, the Viscount Humen, for his contribution to the land, the other biggest factor was probably the fox charming son Sophia. Whenever he thought of this, the princesses in the harem were so angry that they were so angry that they were all the princesses in the harem.

As for Major General Lei Xiaopeng, he is more of the royal guards, Lei Peng and Yu Meng. In addition, he worked hard to expand his territory in Africa for more than ten years, and this title is well deserved, but he came a little late.

Another appointment in the Palace of Ocean Kingdom is astonishing;

Fan Zhongzhai, the current position of the Royal Secretariat, was removed from his current position as the governor of Queensland.

Current Queensland Governor Fan Asheng resigned due to illness and still held other government positions, which is equivalent to making way for Fan Zhongzhai.

Fan Zhongzhai took the lead in forming the Democratic and Freedom Alliance and served as chairman. Subsequently, a group of nobles and influential people in society joined, setting off a new storm in the political arena of the Ocean Kingdom.

A person with a very keen eye can guess; this is preparing for the government's election!

Xianju Palace

The curtains in the bedroom are hanging low and the light is dark.

On the luxurious European Baroque palace-style bed, the thin brocade quilt is messy, and you can vaguely see amazing and wonderful curves and black hair like a waterfall, which is seductive.

After a long time

The delicate body on the bed squirmed for a moment, and the sexy and charming girl raised her face. It was the favorite concubine Sophia. She shouted in a daze, "Your Majesty."

"If you go back to your wife, your Majesty has gone to the front hall to handle the government affairs."

"Oh, when will I come back?"

"We don't know this... we just need to wait with peace of mind."

"Okay, help me clean and dress up."

Sophia sat up lazily, the young woman was watered and shiny, and the embroidered silk pajamas exposed a corner of her shoulders. The round curves exuded a charming white jade luster.

In the front hall

Li Fushou, who was refreshed, strode in and saw Li Sixian, deputy secretary-general of the royal family, standing respectfully on the side with a slight head, walking past him like a gust of wind.

When he came to the throne to sit down, Li Fushou frowned slightly and couldn't find out. This Sophia is really a beauty in the world, but she just needs some waist.

He quickly took off his distracting thoughts, picked up the brewed tea and took a sip of it, and asked, "Have the cabinet officials submitted all the apology?"

"After your Majesty's words, they are all presented."

"Well, British Foreign Secretary Alister Jack wrote me a long letter after the curtain call of this cabinet. I have approved the cabinet. What documents did they come up with?"

Li Sixian replied respectfully, "Report to Your Majesty;

In the letter, Alister Jack was mainly concerned about two major affairs in South Africa and the Far East, and the cabinet had responded through diplomatic emails.

As long as Fuso does not take the initiative to provoke, the Ocean Kingdom will be committed to maintaining the security and stability of the Western Pacific region, cooperating with the British Far East foreign policy, and not unilaterally pursue regional hegemony.

The only thing that is worried about is the situation of the Vietnamese country. The newly established Vietnamese country was crazy hostile to the Governor's Office of Saigon, France. Recently, three batches of reinforcements have been transferred from Europe to the Far East.

The first batch of 1,075 French foreign legions arrived in Fenghua two months ago and were stationed on the spot.

The second batch of 634 people, also from the French foreign army, arrived in Hanoi a month ago and strengthened the local garrison.

The third batch of 2,212 people came from the French troops stationed in the Suez Canal. They had just arrived in Saigon recently and had some bad intentions.

The Kingdom's diplomatic envoys, together with the British representative, asked the Governor General's Office of Saigon; the reply received was that normal personnel should be adjusted for defense, so do not disturb themselves.

Such an answer is difficult to satisfy, so the cabinet expressed concerns about the situation on the Indochina Peninsula to former Foreign Minister Alister Jack and conveyed relevant information to London through diplomatic channels.

At present, no positive response from London has been received.

In terms of the situation in South Africa, the Cabinet adheres to His Majesty’s will and expresses its willingness to follow the British footsteps and play an active role in maintaining peace in Southern Africa. It does not take a stance on specific matters.”

"Yes, yes."

Upon hearing the answer, Li Fushou nodded. His control over the government was comprehensive and in-depth, and the cabinet was just an executive body.

His current performance is still qualified, so he is unwilling to make a big fuss and reorganize the cabinet in advance, and wait until the term of this cabinet expires.

After asking Li Sixian a few more questions, Li Fushou waved his hand and asked him to retreat. He glanced at the thick memorial on the table, and had no intention of looking at it for the time being. His slender fingers gently tapped the memorial and thought about it.

The French were not honest again. They regarded the Indochina Peninsula as their own forbidden body. Even the British intervened without slandering them. How could they allow the establishment of the Yue Kingdom?

After the French colonists invaded the Indochina Peninsula, they successively destroyed Vietnam, Cambodia, and Lao kingdoms, and looked at Thailand across the Mekong River. Britain took the lead in occupying the Kingdom of Burma to protect the flanks of the Indian colonies and prevent the infiltration of the French.

To be honest, the Indian colony was actually stolen from the French. Ahem... it’s all hatred when talking about it!

For the new Vietnamese country, whether it can withstand the French attack is crucial.

If you hold on, the future regime will be stable.

If you can't stand it, don't say anything. Gu Zhiwen would go back to be the eldest master of the Gu family.

Although Gu Zhiwen sent his two sons Yanqing and Yanxi to the Ocean Kingdom, Li Fushou's ability to help was limited, and he only needed to provide arms, military instructors and some funds.

After all, the king of Yue was surnamed Gu and not Li, so there was no need for Li Fushou to rush to fight and kill him. For him, one more Yue country would like to see it, and one less doesn't matter. It's worth it.

It is already very interesting to be able to send a high-level military delegation.

Li Fushou only gave a piece of advice to this ambitious inner brother Gu Zhiwen: let professionals do professional things.

As for whether to listen or not, haha... the one who beats it is your guy. The pain is on yourself and has nothing to do with others.

There has been nothing wrong in the Far East in the past two years. Let’s not talk about the basket of old sesame seeds and millet in the Qing Dynasty. Fusang was secretly gritting his teeth and wrapping his wounds. He heard that the emperor was going to take out Nenu and naval construction again, calling on his subjects to eat less rice dumplings, and calling on young women to step up to Nanyang...

Well, Li Fushou admitted that these Japanese devils were cruel enough and their rise was still unstoppable. He was really helpless.

Tsarist Russia will soon have an official delegation visiting the Ocean Kingdom and the United States to inspect shipyard facilities and the ability to build battleships, and prepare to build a battleship for the Vladivostok Fleet.

Now that the situation is worsening, it is the South African region. Li Fushou still has some ideas about this area, so it is certainly impossible to occupy it. It is already the treasure of the British Cape colony, and no one will give up this big treasure.

The French and Germans dare not make any decisions, so let it go, the Ocean Kingdom, don't make things boring.

What Li Fushou wants to fight for is the right to fair development. If the British want to get his help, they must give the Chinese the right to participate in gold and diamond mining fairly, and ensure that private property is sacred and inviolable.

Without these conditions, he is unwilling to get involved. You can go and play by yourself.
