C2578 Zai Chun trapped in Britain (2/2)
”I came to Europe to study, I want to learn! I can't stay here every day to accompany you to a banquet. I'll just say the dirty words first. I can only stay in England for another one month and thirty days. No matter what excuses you have, I will leave this place! ”
Prince Edward looked at Tongzhi with a weird expression, then stood up and said with a sorrowful tone of voice.
”Your Majesty, the situation has changed. I'm afraid you won't be able to leave England in 30 days …”
”Oh my god, you English people still want to lock me up? Must I marry a European princess? Do cows press their heads against the water? ” Tongzhi was so angry he stomped his feet.
The Crown Prince looked embarrassed and shook his head, ”No, no, Your Majesty, you misunderstood me. I am not talking about leaving England 30 days later. I am talking about you having to leave England within 3 days!”
”Three days?” Tongzhi and the eunuchs and guards around him could not believe their own ears. They looked at each other with doubtful expressions.
”Your Highness, what happened?” Before, you all carried the banner of giving me a blind date, but you refused to let me go no matter what. Why are you urging me so hard now that you want me to leave England in just three days? ”Why, exactly why!”
”Please... Calm down, I have a very sad piece of news to tell you! ”
”Just today at noon, a serious assassination occurred in the Kingdom of Bavaria. The train that the leader of Xiao Letian rode was attacked by a bomb while they were passing through the Artemil Forest …”
”A hundred kilograms of explosives destroyed the steel structure of the bridge and the train fell into the valley. Until now, we still don't know if the leader is alive or dead. However, according to the intelligence agency, the probability of his death is very high …”
With a crash, a huge porcelain plate fell from Hairy # 2's hands and shattered into pieces. ”What did you say?” Are you kidding? The Head of State … ”He's dead …”
”Haha!” Impossible, absolutely impossible, this joke is really not funny! ”
Prince Edward did not care about the disrespect of a eunuch. He shook his head in grief, ”I am not joking. The Prussian army has begun to mobilize, and the vanguard unit is approaching the fort! ”
”Prime Minister Bismark is preparing to have his army invade the Kingdom of Bavaria to investigate the truth. Do you think that this is just a joke?”
Ah … With a miserable scream, Hairy # 2 rolled his eyes and fell straight onto the carpet, fainting.
Tongzhi was also dumbstruck, he couldn't react to this shocking news for a long time. After all, he was only a child around ten years old, and had no experience in solving this kind of sudden event.
”Impossible, you're joking, it's definitely impossible. Does your westerner like to play April Fool's Day games?”
Prince Edward sighed as he shook his head. He took out the original Intelligence telegram and placed it on the desk.
”This is the original telegram from our Intelligence. Your Majesty, please take a look, I don't know how to describe my feelings at the moment, but I can only tell Your Majesty that I beg for your condolences!”
”But hope still exists. After all, we haven't obtained the Bavaria and the final confirmation from Prussia. I think a miracle might happen within 24 hours …”
”I shall take my leave first. Please take care of your health, Your Majesty!” Royal Navy has already started to prepare to leave, we will send the best warships to escort you to Prussia! ”
