C3202 Meet the Queen (1/2)
After all, Wei Keduoyuguo had not returned to his country for twenty years. He wasn't really clear about the inside story of this war.
Furthermore, he was a very reasonable old man. Xiang Ying and his conversation had been extremely pleasant, and because of the dispute between the two of them, it would not go to such an extent that they would lose all decorum.
The old man might be unfamiliar with the new Paris Commune as he kept asking about the conduct of the commune during the Paris offensive.
When he heard that the commune and Interim Defence Government had experienced several intense civil wars, the old man was in a bad mood.
In his eyes, this act of disregarding the general situation was very selfish. Enemy groups even surrounded the capital, yet they were still engaging in internal strife. This was practically an imperial gravedigger!
”No wonder so many gentlemen came to visit me the moment I returned, and said a lot of slanderous things about them …” At first, I didn't believe it, but now, it seems that their judgement was quite accurate! ”
”A great battle is at hand, yet there is such a force holding back inside the France. How can we not lose! ”How can I not be defeated …”
Xiang Ying nodded his head, ”That's why it is good for the Right Faction to begin their counterattack. Their pursuit of the commune has become more and more intense!”
The Bordeaux Parliament had rejected the participation of the commune delegation and had even tried to assassinate Blanqui in the end. Even if the Chinese came forward to intervene, they would only use the death penalty as imprisonment.
All the signs indicated that the royalist party and the capitalist powers had joined forces within the France. They had made the final decision to completely exterminate the Paris Commune.
No matter how strong Thiers was, he was just a hired thug!
After Wei Keduoyuguo finished listening, he remained silent for a long time. Although he had some misgivings to the Paris Commune, he believed that these people should not be restricted during the war, and they should not choose to fight with violence as well.
But it was wrong to be violent. The government could not ignore the miserable lives of so many workers! Taking away political rights was even worse. After all, she was born with the rights of a heaven and earth, and since she was born in France, she should have the right to vote and to stand for election.
The old man blew on the sea breeze, his mood was extremely low. Suddenly, he started to cough, and Xiang Ying, seeing that he could no longer blow, said, ”Sir, go back to the hall, do not stay here, the weather is too cold …”
Yu Guo smiled faintly, ”Aren't you in a confrontation with Her Majesty the Queen? Why did you change your mind? ”
”Just now, the queen's palace maid, Chief Su Shan, came to beg me, asking me to accompany you in your efforts to ease the tension … I never thought that there would be such a deep and profound conversation. Dongfang's thoughts are indeed vast and profound. At the very least, your sophistry really surprises me! ”
”I really want to see what kind of teacher can teach a disciple like you to come out!”
Xiang Ying reached out to support Mr. Yu Guo, ”Compared to teacher, I'm like a firefly trying to catch the sun and moon, Zheng Hui. In my life, it's enough for me to only be able to comprehend 1% of master's abilities!”
”You are a world-class literary person that the Head of State respected. For your sake, I can forgive Yi Suobeila for her rude actions … There's no point in facing them head-on, let's go to Queen's villa to rest for a bit! ”
”Can you tell me about the war in the Philippines? ”How did you guys end up fighting, talk to me …”
”Aiyo, that's a long story. We have to start from the few battles that the Spaniard had against the Chinese …”
