"It also needs to be stirred thoroughly to allow the flavors of these ingredients to be incorporated into it and create a balanced composition. Only in this way will they be delicious enough."
Princess Sophia nodded in agreement: "Your Majesty, you are right."
Queen Elizabeth I suddenly sighed: "It would be great if running the country could be as simple as making snacks."
"The current Tsarist Russia only looks stable, but I know that once Prussia is defeated and we obtain an ice-free port, the contradictions lurking underneath will emerge."
Princess Sophia listened quietly without speaking.
Elizabeth I turned to look at her and said calmly: "Sophia, Tsarist Russia needs stability. I think you will understand what I mean."
Princess Sophia nodded and said, "Your Majesty, I know."
"You want Peter III and me to have a child."
"Yes, even if it's a girl." Elizabeth I suddenly felt her throat was uncomfortable. She coughed twice. Princess Sophia hurriedly stepped forward, but was stopped by Elizabeth I.
"It's okay, I'm just a little uncomfortable."
She gently patted Princess Sophia's hand and said: "You are four years older than little Peter. He is now fourteen. According to the age of his ancestors, he can also have children."
"I hope you two won't keep me waiting too long."
Princess Sophia nodded and said, "I understand, Your Majesty..."
At night, Princess Sophia was waiting for the arrival of Peter III in the room, with a book in front of her.
This was given to her by Elizabeth I, and it records how a man and a woman can have children.
Princess Sophia's heart was pounding. Even though she was mentally mature, this matter was still a bit stressful.
Squeak.
The door opened, and Peter III stuck his head out, looking at the light in the room. Princess Sophia's back fell into his eyes. Peter III held his breath and carefully retracted his head.
"Come in, I've seen you." Sophia's voice sounded softly.
Peter III was stunned for a few seconds, and then he finally opened the door and walked in.
Princess Sophia looked over, and he avoided Princess Sophia's gaze.
After marrying Princess Sophia, this did not make his life in Tsarist Russia any better, but it made it worse.
From Dolgoruki teaching him, Princess Sophia also joined in teaching him.
Every night is nothing but education.
In order to avoid them, Peter III waited for Princess Sophia to fall asleep and come back every day.
Princess Sophia looked at Peter III who was afraid that she was like that, sighed, and said softly: "Today, I will teach you how to become comfortable."
"ah……"
Peter III was extremely puzzled that Sophia did not teach him to learn Russian or any etiquette.
Before he could react, she was pinned down by Sophia.
The lights went out and the room was dark.
But there is more ambiguity.
When he woke up the next day, Peter III put on his trousers, and Princess Sophia was already sitting in front of the dressing table.
Peter III still doesn’t understand what happened last night. The teacher never taught him this.
But very comfortable...
He shook his head and threw all these things behind him. If he didn't leave, he would be late for today's class. In his mind, Dolgoruky was a fierce old man.
Just as Peter III was about to go out, he heard Princess Sophia say: "Come back early tonight and continue doing it..."
Peter III was stunned for a few seconds, nodded, and then ran out quickly.
After Peter III left, Princess Sophia wanted to bury her head in the cracks of the ground, she was so ashamed!
…
At this time, Ling Chen, who was on the Hannover front, did not follow Li Hongtian's order to withdraw his troops. Instead, he wrote a letter explaining the reasons for not withdrawing his troops now.
Li Hongtian frowned when he saw the content of the letter.
It was his intention to ask Ling Chen to withdraw his troops, but it was also Liu Zheng's suggestion.
The main reason for asking Ling Chen to withdraw his troops was to convince Frederick II. This was a kind of sanction.
But Ling Chen said in his heart: "Withdrawing troops now will undoubtedly damage the image of Long Yan Army. If we really withdraw, all our previous efforts will be in vain."
"Although Hanover here belongs to Prussia, it also belongs to Britain. There is British territory here, but it is more Prussian territory."
"We can take advantage of this opportunity to occupy Hanover."
"And there is Hamburg here, which has a port. If our troops can expand in Hanover, we can threaten Hamburg's position. By that time, we will have no problem advancing or retreating."
"You can even control the port of Hamburg to directly deter Britain geographically."
In general, what Ling Chen emphasized was the advantage of not withdrawing troops now.
This gave Li Hongtian a headache. In his opinion, withdrawing troops could reduce the external expenditure of the army, and there was no need for Long Yan to continue to participate in the European battlefield.
Now in control of Saxony, they were well placed to intervene in Europe.
The strategic goal has been achieved.
Now Long Yan controls the Suez Canal and the Red Sea Strait, which is equivalent to indirectly strangling the throats of the countries surrounding the Mediterranean.
Their energy has not developed in this railway, steam trains only existed in Longyan's era, and navigation is their only option for importing and exporting energy.
But once the Mediterranean routes are controlled, these European countries that only have ports in the Mediterranean will have to purchase energy from France or other places at high prices, and the money they need to spend will be several times higher.
It doesn't make much sense for Ling Chen to continue to stay in Hanover. At that time, these countries will still have to come to them to ask for dragon flames.
After thinking about it, Li Hongtian decided not to let Ling Chen withdraw his troops yet.
He is known as the person in the Long Yan Army who best understands Lord Liu Zheng's thoughts. If he does not want to withdraw his troops now, it means that he knows what Liu Zheng means, so he has not withdrawn his troops now.
Finally, Li Hongtian wrote in his reply to Ling Chen: "The withdrawal can be postponed, but everything will give priority to Long Yan's interests."
Li Hongtian is not paying attention to this matter. He still needs to deal with another matter.
About Jiang Xuelan.
Jiang Xuelan never left after delivering the news about Hu Xier to Li Hongtian.
In return, Li Hongtian acquiesced in his involvement in Saxony's business.
This was the best report for her. Jiang Xuelan decided to open a textile factory in Saxony and built it on the Elbe River, a river that could directly reach Saxony from Hamburg.
In fact, it is not a wise choice to enter a textile factory in Saxony, because cotton is not produced here and needs to be purchased.
But Jiang Xuelan didn't care about this matter. She chose to build the textile factory here to target the European market. Although it is difficult to purchase goods here, the sales channels are not difficult at all.
After contacting her, Li Hongtian learned that Jiang Xuelan owned a large plantation in the Atlantic Ocean, but there was no territorial island there.
