    Yingtian in the middle of the night is still scorching hot.  .  twenty three

    Although it was early September 1877, there was a shower in the evening, but it did not drop the temperature much. Even the cooler hot spring palace in the suburbs still seemed a bit sultry.

    Zhu Jishi took a bath as usual after dinner. Tangshan Hot Spring Palace naturally has hot springs, not only indoor hot springs, but also outdoor hot springs. The surrounding rocks are scattered around and shaded by a few trees, which is very charming.  Coupled with the company of a few naked young waiters and the chief maid, Takako Kusumoto, it was really comfortable.

    Maria Clementina is also here, but she is not here to accompany Zhu Jishi to take a bath - this kind of errand is usually the responsibility of young waiters and maids.  Maria came to report to Zhu Jishi the latest major international events.

    The major events during this period were all related to the revolution. The American Revolution was complete. After the British troops in Toronto, Ottawa and Montreal learned that there was also a revolution in their own country, they no longer had the morale to persist and marched towards the Socialist United States of America.  The army surrendered.  At this point, southeastern Ontario (Toronto and Ottawa areas), Quebec, Newfoundland and Labrador, Nova Scotia and other British Canadian lands have all been merged into the Socialist United States of America.

    A new America with approximately three million square kilometers and a population of more than 20 million stands in the northeastern part of the North American continent!  However, the Socialist United States of America does not currently pose any threat to Donghua and Beihua.  Among its population of more than 20 million, there are only 1 to 2 million young and middle-aged males at most, and the entire country is extremely short of labor and soldiers.  It would be nice to be able to bounce back after thirty years.  By then Donghua's population will definitely exceed 50 million.  Beihua will also have a population of more than 10 million.  And Juan will inherit Mathilde's throne.  Donghua, North China and Mexico already have the strength to fight against the Socialist United States of America and the Kingdom of New France alone.

    Moreover, the honeymoon period between the Socialist United States of America and the Roman Empire is destined to be difficult to maintain. Its socialist nature has determined that cooperation with Rome is only a temporary measure.  Britain and Russia, which have the same social system, are the true allies of the Socialist United States of America - although no one in the entire Western world currently realizes this.  But Zhu Jishi, a time traveler, knows that for internationalists, the significance of nation and country is far less than ideology.

    It is precisely because of this misunderstanding that the Roman Empire and the German Empire adopted completely different attitudes towards the three socialist countries - the Roman Empire supported the Socialist United States of America and sent a large amount of food, weapons and ammunition to the Americans.  .  Just like the French historically supported the American Revolutionary War.  However, Rome took a stance of ignoring the British Revolution and only sent troops to occupy Ireland, apparently to separate it from Britain.  Regarding the Russian Revolution, Napoleon IV adopted a very hostile attitude and signed an agreement with Grand Duke Konstantin Nikolayevich who stayed in Constantinople, preparing to send troops to intervene in the Russian Revolution!

    Germany, on the other hand, took the position of ignoring the American Revolution, being hostile to the British revolutionaries, and supporting the Russian Revolution - because Victoria, the Crown Princess of the German Empire, was the eldest daughter of Prince Albert and Queen Victoria.  The whereabouts of most members of the British royal family are still unknown. If they were killed during the revolution, Princess Victoria would be the legal heir to the British throne.  There is this relationship.  Germany was naturally hostile to the British revolutionaries.  Of course, this hostile relationship is not impossible to change.  If the safety of the British royal family is confirmed and the British revolutionaries are willing to accept Princess Victoria as the successor to the throne

    ??And their support for the Russian Revolution is to obtain an armistice treaty that is beneficial to Germany by signing a treaty with the All-Russian Revolutionary Council, such as obtaining the entire Belarus, Lithuania, Latvia, Estonia and half of Ukraine.

    As the most powerful imperialist country in the world, the Great China Empire has the same attitude towards these three socialist countries - they are all enemies!  First of all, Donghua and North China are inseparable from the Socialist United States of America!  Secondly, when Victoria and Edward VII arrived in India, the Greater China Empire would definitely support their claim to the British throne and would naturally be hostile to socialist Britain.  Finally, the news just received: Russian Empress Alexandra I has arrived in Arkhangelsk under the protection of her uncle, Grand Duke Alexander, and is preparing to travel to Siberia by sea.  And also made a request for assistance from the Ming Empire.

    A Russian empress who is a little over one year oldshould grow into a beauty in the future, right?  Seems like a good match!

    Zhu Jishi suddenly laughed. This is a good opportunity. It is an opportunity to turn the Russian territory east of the Ural Mountains into an independent Siberian kingdom.

    ¡°Jason, you¡¯re hitting Queen AlexandraAre you satisfied?  "

    Maria Clementina folded the briefing paper in her hand and handed it to the maid beside her, looking at Zhu Jishi with a smile.  "I heard that she is a little beauty, but it's a pity that she is a little too small."

    "She will grow up eventually. How about letting her be your granddaughter-in-law?" Zhu Jishi asked Maria with a smile.

    "It's better to keep it as the emperor's daughter-in-law." Maria shook her head, knowing that Zhu Jishi was being polite to her.  "In this way, the Ming Empire will really become a core country, and it can live a peaceful life."

    "That's okay," Zhu Jishi smiled and nodded, glanced at Maria, who was no longer beautiful, sighed softly, and waved to her.  "The weather is very hot, why not take a bath with me."

    Maria smiled, stood up, and generously took off her clothes in front of Zhu Jishi. She actually maintained a pretty good figure, at least for someone who had given birth to two children and was already in her fifties and almost sixty years old.  It's very good for women.  But after all, she cannot be compared with the young women around Zhu Jishi.

    After getting into the pool, Maria lay down on the edge of the pool next to Zhu Jishi, and a maid came up to rub her back and massage her.  Zhu Jishi narrowed his eyes and continued to talk to her while resting his mind.

    "Victoria has arrived at the Pacific Port of New Japan (Puerto Montt), and will arrive in East Asia in two months at most. I want to go to Japan to greet her in person, so you can go with me."

    "Do we still want to discuss the South China issue with her?" Maria asked.

    "Of course, if you can defeat the enemy without fighting, then don't fight anymore." Zhu Jishi said, "Just let Helena be the Queen of South China and share the throne with the national hero."

    ¡°What about the white people in Australia and New Zealand?¡±

    "If you want to stay, just stay. If you don't want to, just send them to India." Zhu Jishi smiled, "India is a good place, and white people have a high status there. If the British royal family is willing to pretend to believe in Hinduism, they can  Rule India for 1000 years! I think this is also a good thing for Indians.¡±

    "Haha, that's really good" Maria giggled, and when she was about to say something else, there was a sound of a wooden mop hitting the bluestone floor.  Then I saw the waiter Zhou Xiulan trotting in, holding in her hand the copy of the telegram she had just brought from the telegraph room.

    "Your Majesty, telegram from London!"

    "The telegram from London? Jin Yiwei's?" Zhu Jishi frowned. Why did Jin Yiwei's spies in London send the telegram to the Hot Spring Palace?

    ¡°No, it¡¯s a telegram from Mr. Engels!¡±

    "Engels?" Zhu Jishi nodded suddenly. Although Engels had returned to Europe for many years, he still maintained telegram contact with Zhu Jishi's court, and the two sides exchanged views on major international events from time to time.

    Maria Clementina had already received the copy of the telegram. She just took a look at it and screamed.

    "What's the matter?"

    ¡°The British Socialist Party seems to want to usher in a king!¡±

    "A king? What? Aren't they going to establish a socialist republic? Why do they still need a king?" Zhu Jishi was stunned again and again. He really didn't understand what medicine Engels and the British Socialists were selling in their gourds.

    "It seems that what they want to establish is not a socialist republic, but a socialist kingdom with a constitutional monarchthe United Socialist Kingdom of Britain!"

    "Socialist United Kingdom!?" Zhu Jishi's eyes widened, as if he had heard the weirdest thing in the world.

    "Isn't it strange?" Maria Clementina looked at Zhu Jishi, "Hasn't the German Socialist Party always advertised dynastic socialism?"

    By the way, isn¡¯t Friedrich Engels the leader of the German Socialist Party?  When he went to England this time wouldn't it be William I and Bismarck who were behind him?

    Maria Clementina frowned and said: "Mr. Engels asked in the telegram whether Princess Helena is interested in the British throne? If she is not interested in this, I hope she can publicly renounce it. In addition, Mr. Engels also wants to know about the overthrown  Has the British royal family surrendered to us? If so, he also hopes that you can persuade them to give up their claim to the British throne."

    "Are they really choosing a monarch for the UK?" Zhu Jishi frowned, "If members of the British royal family in exile also give up their right to inherit the throne, then who will become the king of Britain?"

    ¡°Victoria Adelaide Marie Louise, Crown Princess of the German Empire, the future Empress of the German Empire and Queen of Prussia!¡±

    "If she becomes the Queen of England, then Britain and Germany will become a co-monarchy alliance?" Zhu Jishi thought for a while, with an even weirder expression on his face, "Then her eldest son William will become the King of England?"??

    Princess Victoria¡¯s eldest son is of course the German Emperor Wilhelm II during World War I. In this time and space, he actually wants to be the King of England (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature, the novel is better and updated faster!
