The prince only allowed me to have a baby, so the pressure is a bit high!

Chapter 343 The Most Hardcore Female Diplomat in History - Princess Yuanhe (I)

This is the national television station, and our frontline reporters are reporting to you: The tomb of Princess Jingyi, Princess Gulun Yuanhe, the first global diplomat of the Qing Dynasty, the spokesperson of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and known as one of the most powerful women in modern times, has officially opened today.

The reporter was lucky enough to draw a reservation number today and became one of the first tourists to enter the princess's tomb. Now let me introduce the layout to you in detail.

The first thing that catches the eye is the princess's epitaph. I heard that this was written by Emperor Lai Xing himself for his aunt. All the deeds on it have been verified by historical research and are all historically verifiable achievements.

Princess Gulun Yuanhe went on a diplomatic mission in the sixth year of Chengyuan. Emperor Chengyuan arranged 50,000 troops and 20 warships to escort her. Over the course of four years, the princess traveled across the entire ocean border continent and visited many countries and continents, including the British Empire, Portugal, Spain, Rome, France, the Netherlands, South Africa, Australia, etc. She also established diplomatic relations through "nuclear peace" and those countries submitted peace coexistence treaties to the Qing Dynasty.

However, there were also those who refused to admit defeat. The ruler of Britain at that time was Queen Victoria, the longest-reigning monarch in British history. She was also the first British monarch to be titled "Queen of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland and Empress of India".

During her reign, British free capitalism grew from its infancy to its peak, and then transitioned to monopoly capitalism. During this period, Britain's economy and culture prospered unprecedentedly.

It was also because of her that Britain achieved tremendous development, so there were many people who supported her. When she was unwilling to coexist peacefully with the Qing Dynasty and wanted to continue to covet this vast land, Britain almost fully supported her. She even made a speech in Parliament for this purpose, launching a war against the Qing Dynasty in the name of "for the interests of the British Empire."

The enemy took the initiative to attack and provoke. Can Jingyi do it? Can the Qing Dynasty do it?

A man should be looked at with new eyes after three days of absence. Moreover, the Qing Dynasty at this time was already a completely different place, having completed the Industrial Revolution even faster than Britain. Not only that, its weapons and military power were already at the forefront of the world. Under such favorable conditions, war was imminent.

"Aunt, why are you thinking of going to the battlefield? The Crown Prince and the Emperor's father repeatedly told me to bring you back before we left." Yong Hu didn't expect that he would encounter such a difficult problem when he just came to pick up his aunt back to Beijing. The key point is that it would be fine if the British attacked. Anyway, the Qing Dynasty's fleet was powerful and he was not afraid at all.

But he never expected that his aunt would be so angry that she would want to go on the warship and participate in the war herself!

Now that's a problem. When I came here, I promised to escort my aunt back to Beijing safely. Now, there's no way for me to go back.

"No, Prince, please return to the capital and report directly! I will write you a letter later. Please take it back to the capital to show my father and brother, and they will naturally understand."

Jingyi was unwilling to return to Beijing in such a depressed mood. Before leaving, she told her brother again and again that she must bring back the good news that the whole world loves peace. Who would have thought that such an embarrassing thing would happen as soon as she landed in the Qing Dynasty.

This time, she would never return to Beijing until she saw Britain defeated and forced to kneel down and beg for mercy.

Yonghu looked at Aunt Jingyi with an embarrassed face, "Aunt, are you serious? Besides, can't we just leave the marching and fighting to my uncle? We don't know how to deploy troops, so why not waste time here?"

"Hmph, how do you know I can't deploy troops or march to war? Back when I was on the battlefield, when your father and I were commanding the war, you were nowhere to be seen!"

Hmm? Auntie, do you want to listen to what you are saying?

Yonghu looked at his uncle in surprise, but Hailancha nodded in agreement: "Your aunt is indeed very good at arranging troops and is also very skilled in martial arts. In the past few years, we have been relying on the princess's opinions when going out."

Even the maidservant beside Jingyi confirmed: "The master did participate in the war before, but she kept her identity secret at the time, so only a few people knew about it."

Now Yonghu is finished. It’s okay that the emperor is more powerful than him, but how come his aunt, a delicate princess, is more capable than him?

However, the men of the Aisin-Gioro family are not soft persimmons or cowards. Since his aunt dared to face the British and wanted to beat him into submission with her own hands, then what reason did he, the prince and the future master of the Qing Dynasty, have to leave?

"Alright then. Since Auntie won't leave, I won't leave either. Let's work together to beat them back home and beat them until they're beaten into submission and never have the slightest desire to do anything else."

Jingyi hadn't expected that her words and attitude would affect Yonghu so immediately. Although she was pleased that her brother's child was also so brave, she said, "No, a gentleman doesn't stand under a dangerous wall. You are the crown prince, how can you stay here? This is directly facing the front line of the battlefield. The shells are not blind. If a volley of bullets comes, even if you are the crown prince, it will be useless."

"I'm not afraid, Auntie. How could a man like me be afraid? Besides, I'm going to inherit the throne and lead the Qing Dynasty forward. If I can't handle such a small matter, I'd better step down and let someone with more ambition take over."

"Besides, Aunt, you still don't trust me? I'm also a member of the Aisin-Gioro family. Just because I've always enjoyed a life of luxury, you can't think I'm a delicate flower that can't withstand the wind and sand. I also want to prove to the people that their future monarch is a man who can hold up the Qing Dynasty!"

Jingyi looked at Yonghu, who was half a head taller than her, her eyes full of pride. "Okay, since you've made up your mind, then I won't stop you. So, I'll write a letter and have it quickly sent back to the capital, reporting our next move and apologizing to your father. I have 50,000 battle-hardened soldiers here, plus the Nanyang Fleet. This time, we'll make sure the British never return!"

"Well, I have no combat experience, so I'll follow my aunt's instructions. It just so happens that the 5,000 guards I brought with me this time are also joining us. If you have any instructions, please feel free to ask."

This confrontation with the Qing Dynasty was decided by a few words between the aunt and nephew. So when the British fleet arrived, before they could figure out the situation, they were hit head-on by the Qing Dynasty's artillery fire. This immediately made the prince leading the British fleet embarrassed and at a loss.

"Why is the Qing Dynasty playing by the rules? Our envoys haven't even set foot on the land yet, and they've already declared war?"

Jingyi and Yonghu had no time to explain these things, and even ignored the urgent report sent from the capital. So the Qing Dynasty's war against Britain started directly in such an environment!

The large force that was preparing to support the eldest princess and the crown prince in the rear had just arrived at the port.
