The UK did decide to make a strong move. She felt very uncomfortable with Xiao Letian's sudden rise in the British Empire. Emotionally, they did not want Asian countries to be too strong.

However, it is also very clear in the British Empire that Asian civilization is different from America and Africa. This ancient civilization with a long history is too profound, and it is unrealistic to completely colonize.

Only by supporting the pro-British regime can we carry out semi-colonial rule!

The Qing Dynasty has almost been tamed, but Britain also knows that the Qing Dynasty was too corrupt and declining, especially in the face of the aggressive offensive of Tsarist Russia in the north, the Qing Dynasty had no power to resist.

The UK will never allow Tsarist Russia to have a warm water port, and it is absolutely not allowed in Europe, the Black Sea, or even Asia.

In Europe, there is also the Black Sea, and the British can block the footsteps of Tsarist Russia themselves, but the power in Asia and Britain is a bit beyond reach!

Who do you rely on? Anyway, the Qing Dynasty was not good, and they didn’t understand what sea power is at all!

It seems that only Xiao Letian is the most suitable one, but everything Xiao Letian shows is really too rebellious!

If the British Empire cannot tame this fierce horse, then just kill it!

The golden issue and the Philippines in Spain are actually excuses. For the UK, the barren land of the Philippines is not valuable at all. The Strait of Malacca in the whole of Southeast Asia is the most important.

Gold is not a big problem. When did the UK get the 1.2 billion francs of gold?

What the UK wants is your Chinese attitude, and we will once again test whether you, Xiao Letian, is honest and obedient!

I deduct you the ship of gold on the sea, and I can make the former and current governments of Spain send representatives to disgust you!

Even when the negotiations are really not reached, you will be placed under house arrest in Europe!

Don't go back, just take care of your old age in Europe. I hope that the ship of Zhiyuan still wants to break back to Asia? Do you think Britain is France?

The British's wolf ambitions have been revealed. At this moment, Gladstone and the Duke of Newxle are in charge of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and presided over the big exam against Xiao Letian.

At Buckingham Palace, the Queen and the Son are also paying close attention to Xiao Letian's movements.

"Did those two people go to see Xiao Letian yesterday?" Queen Victoria said lightly.

"Yes, mother! Both of them went to see each other, probably to remind Xiao Letian of gold. After all, those two people still understand economics very well."

"Do you need to arrest me?" the crown prince asked in a low voice.

The queen shook her head, "No need to stimulate those people, after all, they did not engage in conspiracy and riots in our UK. As long as they do not mess with our country, then they can mess with other countries by raising them."

"Isn't this a good thing?" the queen said lightly.

"Yes, my mother, I think so too, but Benjamin had expressed concern before. He was afraid that Xiao Letian would change his strategy, and we would not be able to do it by then!"

"Change the strategy?" The queen put down the teacup in her hand. "My child, you have to remember that whether it is Benjamin or Gladstone, their opinions must be listened to, but we must also have our own analysis!"

"Everyone does and says what he says has his own purpose and emotions!"

"Gladstone is not good at diplomacy, he is not good at conspiracy, but you have to know that the current reform of the UK's internal affairs cannot be separated from him, especially in the field of universal education, we need Gladstone!"

"I have seen through this Franco-Prussia war. If you win, you will be able to carry out education for all. This is the foundation! So we must use Gladstone's internal affairs!"

"What about Benjamin? Diplomacy, colonial affairs are all good players, but this person is not without selfishness! Faction conflicts will make them attack for the sake of attack."

"Why did Benjamin have to kill Xiao Letian? At first, it might be just because he was afraid that the country's colonial interests would be damaged, but now his mentality has changed a long time ago!"

"He just wants to attack Gladstone by killing Xiao Lotte!"

"This is factional struggle. Everyone is full of selfish thoughts for victory!

"Only we, only our monarch, sincerely hope that this country will be good and abandon our personal feelings for this purpose!"

"This is the way for kings to use people. If we want to take advantage of the struggle between our ministers, we must make them fight so that our status will be more stable and they will need us!"

"Whether Gladstone or Benjamin are our ministers, we must remember that it is us who control everything, not them!"

The crown prince was patiently like a primary school student at this moment, standing beside his mother and listening to the way of governing the country, and nodding without stopping.

The queen patted her son's hand and signaled him to sit down, "Remember, if Xiao Letian is really willing to bow his head, then it's okay for us to have such an ally in Asia!"

"This world belongs to Britain. In the past, it will not change the foundation of the Empire of the Sun Never Setting. Will be challenged by 1.2 billion francs? Hahaha, what a joke!"

At this moment, the queen's domineering aura was revealed. This is the strong self-confidence of the ruler of the most golden age of the Empire!

She was alert to potential enemies, but she was just alert. In her heart, the Empire of the Unsettled Sun is invincible, and the people who could destroy the British Empire have not yet been reincarnated!

Just as the queen was teaching her son the way to be a king, the palace servant suddenly walked over and said, "Your Majesty, there are guests to visit."

Listening to the name spoken by the attendant, the queen smiled, "Look, you can see clearly the form, the lobbyist is here!"

The confrontation at the negotiating table is always secondary, and the real business must be done behind the scenes! This is the iron law of diplomacy that Xiao Letian believes in.

In the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Xiao Letian saw the essence of Britain clearly. He was not angry at all. Looking at the two groups of representatives from Spain and the British politicians in the audience, he smiled calmly.

Do you think this will kill me? It's so sad. You don't know how much preparation I have made for the Philippines!

How long have I been waiting for this once-in-a-lifetime strategic opportunity?

Many people think it was a huge mistake for me to start the Philippines strategy before the end of the Franco-Prussian War, but they didn’t know that this was actually the biggest gift package God gave me!

At this time, it is a real strategic opportunity!

If you want to swallow the Philippines with the smallest sacrifice, it will be an opportunity in just one or two years. Once you miss it, you will never give it twice.

Xiao Letian no longer wants to play cats and mice. He walked a few steps and stood on the rostrum and said in a low voice.

"I am very sorry for the conflict in Luzon, but it has happened and must be resolved! I will give two choices here. Please remember that there are only these two choices, and there is no third way!"
Chapter completed!
