Southern England, Berkshire, Windsor Castle.
This castle and a large area around it are now firmly under the control of the Royal White Guards loyal to Princess Victoria!
Just when Ernst August was riding in his luxurious carriage, escorted by a cavalry company of the 9th Hanoverian Cavalry Regiment, to Windsor Castle, he was sent by the conspiracy surrounding Princess Victoria to Naples and Zhuge Liang. Viscount Palmerston, who had been secretly talking with Lin Zexu for a long time, had quietly returned to England, and had also returned to Windsor Castle with the "Ming Ying Portage Secret Treaty" signed between him and Lin Zexu.
Although this "Ming Ying Portage Secret Treaty" is not a formal and public treaty, the Ming Dynasty has a very good record of complying with the treaty - because no one can force the Ming Dynasty to sign a treaty they are unwilling to sign. Therefore, Daming naturally has no urgent request to break the contract. Moreover, the Ming Dynasty was also willing to build its own "national structure" that kept its promises, so it never betrayed its promises or broke treaties for more than a hundred years. This is much better than that of Western countries.
Moreover, this informal "Ming-Ying Portage Treaty" not only has the signature of Lin Zexu and the official seal of the Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Ming Dynasty, but also has the counter-signature of Zhuge Weijiu, the great military advisor of the Zhuge family, and the " The seal of "The world is public" - this is the seal of the Zhuge family's military division! Therefore, this "Ming Ying Portage Treaty" not only represents the Ming Dynasty, but also has the endorsement of the Zhuge family, which is quite reliable.
In addition, the content of the "Ming-British Portage Treaty" also determined that the Ming Dynasty could not deny its credit - because according to this treaty, Great Britain would become "Xiao Ming" in the future! King Zhu Xi of the Zhu Ming Dynasty could not only get Queen Victoria of the Hanoverian Dynasty as his wife, but also get the titles of Emperor of India and King of the United Kingdom!
In other words, he is not the "royal husband" of England, but the king! This treatment is the same as that of William III, the Prince of Orange and the ruler of the Netherlands, who was welcomed into London by "Qiu Sangui"! Even if Queen Victoria, like Queen Mary II, died without leaving an heir, he could continue to serve as King of the United Kingdom and Emperor of India until his death.
If this Ming-British war is regarded as a dynastic war between the Zhu Ming Dynasty and the Hanoverian Dynasty, then the Zhu Ming Dynasty can be said to have won... What else is there to tear up?
Of course, the United Kingdom and the Indian Empire still lost a large number of colonies.
Among them, the United Kingdom lost the Australian colonies where prisoners were exiled, including New Zealand, New Guinea, Solomon Islands, New Hebrides, etc. The Indian Empire lost the Malayan colony - this land actually belonged to the United Kingdom, but was added to the Indian Empire by Emperor William. In addition, the status of Ceylon Island is uncertain. This island is under attack by the coalition forces tomorrow and will most likely be captured. After that, whether to continue to hang under the name of the Indian Empire, or to become a vassal of the Ming Dynasty (the "dog status" of the Ming Dynasty is not given casually, Ceylon may not be qualified), or to reward Japanese warriors who have made great contributions as soldiers. The Zhixingji (sovereignty cannot be transferred to Japan) must be carefully calculated...

However, India, the most precious asset of the British Empire, was still preserved... Although an Indian empire that was about to be unified would be transformed into "Holy Roman India", this did not prevent British profiteers and powerful people from making money!
Moreover, the powerful people in England do not actually agree to build the Indian Empire into a unified centralized empire... They are not willing to twist England, Scotland, and Ireland together, so why are they willing to build a unified empire? India? Those were all reforms that had to be carried out to resist the Ming Dynasty. Now Daying seems to be "Xiao Ming", both Da Ming and Xiao Ming are Ming, why bother bothering Indian Asan? It would actually be good to create a "Holy Roman India"!
In the throne room of Windsor Castle, a group of English dignitaries were holding a copy of the "British-British Treaty of Portage" and looking at it.
"This Indian empire, which is like the Holy Roman Empire, looks great... there are hundreds of small countries! How many barons, viscounts, and counts can you create?"
"There are also positions! Every small country must have various ministers, right? It won't be that difficult to be a minister in the future."
"In fact, these countries are not too small... India has a population of 200 million and is still growing rapidly. If there is good management, 300 million will be very fast. Even if the population of 200 million is divided equally among 200 countries , each country has a population of 1 million. A country with a population of 1 million is okay if it is placed in the Holy Roman Empire."
"Yes, yes, and these small Indian countries are still very wealthy...Although the financial revenue of the Indian Empire before the war was only about 50% of that of the United Kingdom, more than 100 years ago, during the era of Aurangzeb's rule, The financial revenue of the Hindustan Empire even exceeds that of the Ming Dynasty! If we can really manage India well, we will definitely make a fortune!"
"Yes, neither the former East India Company nor the current Indian Imperial Government have fulfilled their responsibilities..."
These powerful people who criticized the East India Company and the Indian Empire certainly knew how lucrative it was to be a regular employee of the Company or to get a good position in the Indian imperial government... Most of the wealth that the British Empire extracted from India was Flowed into private pockets!
And many of these English dignitaries who openly criticized the East India Company and the Indian Imperial Government had held lucrative positions in India!
However, the fertilizer shortages in India at that time were "temporary fertilizers" and could not be passed on to future generations. And once there is "Holy Roman India" in the future, the titles and positions in India will be long-term and can be passed down.
This can last for generations!
Seeing that the dignitaries in the throne room all supported the "British-British Portage Treaty", Princess Victoria, who had always strongly agreed with the British "constitutional spirit", coughed and asked with a blushing face: "Gentlemen, it seems that you Do you all support the Treaty of Ming-Ying Portage? Then...should we petition His Majesty the Emperor to ask him to approve this treaty? "
Britain... turns out there is still a king!
And this king is not Victoria yet.
Everyone turned their attention to the Duke of Wellington - the time has come to become a traitor, no, to be a hero who protects the country!
Duke Wellington frowned and whispered: "The emperor's Gurkha mercenaries are not worth mentioning, but Duke Campbell's 20,000 German troops are still very effective! And...Princess If His Highness loses his right to inherit, he will become the next King of England!”
As soon as he said this, the people in the throne hall were speechless.
Although the British Empire does not have an eternal king, it only has eternal interests!
Moreover, the support of the Parliament and the Army for Princess Victoria's attempt to usurp the throne is in line with British case law... But Duke Campbell's 20,000 Hanoverian German troops did not accept this! If they resolutely defend Emperor William, wouldn't the streets of London become a battlefield?
The British army and the German army were fighting fiercely in the streets of London... It's terrifying to think about it!
Everyone was feeling horrified when the door to the throne room was suddenly pushed open, and John Conroy, Princess Victoria's auditor, suddenly ran in like flying, shouting as he ran: "Her Royal Highness, Your Royal Highness... ....The Duke of Campbell is here! Your uncle, the Duke of Campbell, is here at Windsor Castle!"
