2116 Dawn 2

The grandest ceremony in the history of human civilization exchange finally kicked off today. Looking at Zaichun, wearing a bright yellow dragon robe, slowly approaching Zhiyuan under the cover of the flag umbrella, everyone present subconsciously looked at the pocket watch.

At 5:25, Zaichun returned to the Zhiyuan with the Duke of Newcastle, and all the participants of the all-day event gathered together.

"If you send the order, all the soldiers will immediately take their seats as planned in ten minutes... Look, the British warships have been pressurized, and the sails are half open..."

Boom boom boom... All the warships of the entire joint fleet sounded dense footsteps. The soldiers in the restaurant put down their tableware whether they had finished eating or not, and the equipment they had prepared long ago began to gather on the deck.

Rows of soldiers gathered on the deck into small tofu pieces. Today, only the most elite veterans and the most verified warriors are qualified to disembark and attend the ceremony.

There are only 800 people who can get off the ship and walk on the street today. One hundred people are a platoon, and eight platoons gather on different battleships.

The horizontal and vertical lines are all in a line. All soldiers even have carefully selected heights, from low to high, from 1.75 meters to 1.80 meters, forming beautiful neat inclines in rows.

Every pure copper button on the military dress was shiny, and the leather boots could reflect women's underwear. The thick cowhide straps tied the waist tightly, and some veterans even wore their medals of war.

The brothers who were not able to join the guard of honor were lying down at the hatch of the ship, and their eyes were blue with envy at this moment.

"Brother, don't embarrass everyone! Fuck, your kid is lucky and your parents have a good appearance..."

"Doctor Huang Xie is here, Doctor Huang Xie is here to distribute medicine to everyone..."

A famous orderly soldier was carrying a large pot of soup and the spoon was placed inside. Doctor Huang Xie shouted and said, "No one can drink it for me to drink it! There are herbs that resist the heat and prevent you from getting hot and getting diarrhea..."

"Don't be afraid, there are no side effects on herbs. If you want to say that, some people may get constipated for three days after drinking it... Fuck, what you want is constipation, so what if something happens to you this day? You've all been drunk..."

The brothers who watched the fun then balanced. "It seems that there is a price for you to show off! Constipation for three days, hahaha..."

The platoon leader Wang Chen in the team drank the soup in the spoon in one bite, and then gave those comrades who could not eat grapes a big eyebrow. "I'm happy! Not to mention constipation for three days, I'm happy for ten days... I'm involved in this grand event, and I can play with my children and grandchildren for the rest of my life when I get home..."

"Shhh... just brag! Are you going to be a child and grandchildren? Is your wife reincarnated now? Hahaha..." This is the case in the army. Those who have not paid for the task will always joke with those who have the opportunity to make contributions.

These soldiers who did not have the opportunity to join the guard of honor were all jealous and crazy. It would definitely not work if they didn't tease them.

Wang Chen threw the wooden spoon in the bucket, "Damn, my wife is in Borneo! And she is the Minister of Education appointed by the Head of State! Damn, you guys are so greedy..."

"Tsk..." The group of people stretched out their middle fingers at Wang Chen, "Dream! Do they like you? The toad wants to eat the swan's fart..."

Just as Wang Chen wanted to refute and curse a few words, suddenly the roar of the captain Jiang Lie came from the front of the team, "Everyone is... stand at attention! Salute to His Majesty the Emperor of the Qing Dynasty!"

Only then did people see that the little emperor Zaichun had already climbed the gangway, and even the head of state and others had put down the tableware.

It is okay to be casual at ordinary times, but now it is not possible. The little emperor is the highest among diplomatic envoys. In front of Europeans, all Chinese people should give him the highest respect.

With a bang, a hundred tigers on the deck saluted collectively, and the majestic aura made the Duke of Newcastle's eyes lit up.

"It turns out that what I saw yesterday was not the most powerful moment for you. Today is... God, how did you train these soldiers?" the Duke asked with a smile.

Xiao Letian smiled faintly, "You're welcome! Can such a tiger be trained? If you are wrong, there is no need to train at all. This is just the original appearance of us Chinese!"

"I have no other ability. I just wiped away the dust in the hearts of the Chinese and revealed my original self... Otherwise, would the Duke think that the tens of millions of square kilometers of land in China were all fooled by words?"

"Oh...hahaha, it makes sense, it makes sense. The head of state's liar is indeed not at a disadvantage..." Perhaps because the Duke of Newcastle and Xiao Letian had business connections. For the sake of Xian Zhiyuan's business relationship, he didn't care about the soft knife in Xiao Letian's words at all.

Europeans value interests but neglect face, and their values ​​are completely different from those of the Qing Dynasty officials.

After a few polite words, Zai Chun took the opportunity to excitedly say to the master, "Master, you really should have gone ashore with me. The European banquet is indeed interesting, very interesting, completely different from ours..."

Zaichun has bright eyes and looks very good at playing. "The Baron's manor is very large, with more than 50 gardeners taking care of plants for him. Their style is different from the small bridges and flowing water in our China. They are square geometric figures..."

"And their banquet hall is so big that it is filled with specimens of various rare animals and plants. The most beautiful one is the specimen of an African lion, which occupies a corner of the banquet hall with extraordinary momentum..."

"Haha, this is the first time I have seen a real lion, it's so big..."

Xiao Letian looked at Zai Chun with a wry smile. After all, he was still a child. A little habitual toy made him addicted. How could this be? Such a mind is not allowed to be kneaded by the British.

Thinking of this, Xiao Letian said with a serious expression, "Your Majesty! It's not the time to chat. Look at the shore. The British people who are welcoming you have already started gathering. Please calm yourself down. We will start at about six o'clock!"

Zaichun hit a soft nail and didn't dare to ramble anymore, so he had to go to his exclusive position at the head of the ship and became a living specimen of the Qing Dynasty.

Today, the sailors specially ordered a wooden platform for Zaichun. Xiao Zaichun stood on it, which was two taller than the Duke of Newcastle. In addition, the bright dragon robe could make the British people more easily see the majesty of the Eastern Emperor.

Zai Chun couldn't help but take a breath of air conditioning at first glance. It was not obvious just now, but now he saw that the British people gathered on both sides of the strait had gathered together into black groups, and they were still increasing and expanding.

In order to welcome Zaichun today, the Thames River blocked two-thirds of the channel. The middle and north side of the river were all divided by armed speedboats, and all civilian ships could only walk the narrowest passage on the south side.

Those large maritime merchant ships were simply banned today. There were warships of the Royal Fleet everywhere, and those small boats were maintaining order on the river surface, and the large warships lined up in a row waiting for the inspection of the Zhiyuan.
