C2444 French Emperor and Montauban (2/2)

They had no idea how the railroad and the cemetery could have clashed, or why the railway had to be built to consider the comfort of the dead.

Great cultural differences left Britain at a loss. They wanted to find a spokesperson, but none of them had the guts to do so.

To be able to meet such an enlightened little emperor, the entire business world in Britain was already extremely excited. Countless people even shouted that this was a miracle given by God, a slogan like this.

Now that someone was trying to obliterate the miracle God had bestowed on England, to block off the entry of British capital into the interior of the Great Qing, this was against the whole of England, against the whole of British business and finance.

It was also because of this that when Gladstone had just arrived in Downing Street, the first person he saw was Count Lalenden. Under the strong words of the new Prime Minister, the external phase sent a strong diplomatic note to the French Emperor and the Tsar through official channels.

Although they did not say explicitly that Napoleon was the mastermind, they did not mention that they were implying that they were implying it. They even strongly requested that the French conduct an internal investigation to apprehend all the powers behind the assassins.

When Napoleon III received the diplomatic note from the United Kingdom, he was about to go crazy. His roars were like that of a tiger in the Versailles and everything on the table was smashed into pieces.

”How preposterous! How preposterous! How dare you put the blame on my head, the damn Englishman is too arrogant! ”

”For the sake of a Chinese railway, you gave up the alliance that you had with the English and French for so many years? This bunch of greedy bastards! ”

This fellow's mission in Britain was extremely unsatisfactory. Xiao Letian had broken his plans time and time again, and in the end, not to mention humiliating him, they even took on an ally, the Prime Minister.

When Benjamin announced his decision to go off-field, Montaubon had already boarded the ferry back to the country. He was also afraid that Gladstone would go crazy and ask him to investigate the situation.

As a precaution, he had to run away. Whoever wanted to be the scapegoat, he or she could do it.

”Your Majesty, please calm down. Gladstone had no choice but to express this attitude in order to curry favor with Emperor Tongzhi …”

”Regardless, the railway artery that runs through China from north to south is really a huge piece of cake... You need to know that Benjamin had even taken out his authority in the administration of the customs to trade with the Tongzhi Emperor! ”

”Customs? He De's position was given to the Tongzhi Emperor? They are so willing, damn it, this railway must have our shares, and they must never let the British eat it all by themselves! ”

”What do you think is the best way to deal with this matter now?” Napoleon said in a huff.

”Ordinary fools would not be able to see through this. They are all moving back and forth in the light of the news!”

”The newspapers are suspicious of us, so they joined in the commotion as well. That's why we have to be more careful when fighting for public opinion!”

”And the second point, is to communicate with the Tongzhi Emperor in time.
