(Thank you for your support. This is my first novel. The author will work hard to write it well!)）
After a long voyage, the fleet finally approached their destination a month later. At this moment, the fleet split into two. One of them headed towards Zhi Li while Xiao Yihan led the consultant team towards Agatha. A week later, the fleet finally arrived at the sea off the port of Brantal, Argentina. Under the guidance of the pilot ship, all the ships slowly sailed into the dock in an orderly manner.
Before the boat could stop, cheers came from the dock, which surprised Xiao Yihan and the others. When everyone walked out of the cabin, they saw that the dock was filled with people who had come to welcome them. Everyone held the flag of the Great Han Federation in their hands and shouted in Mandarin to welcome the arrival of the fleet. Xiao Yihan didn't know whether to laugh or cry at the scene in front of him. Other than the Chinese who were preparing to evacuate, there were also a large number of foreigners. These were obviously the welcoming teams that the local government had pulled over at the last minute. Not only were they dressed in traditional Federation clothing, but they were also speaking in substandard Chinese to welcome them. This made the members of the consultant team who had just arrived at the treasure land unable to remain calm. Didn't you see that the welcoming team was filled with young and beautiful girls? Looking at these hot girls in specially cut cheongsams, the strong young men who had been floating on the sea for more than a month cried out.
He led the team down the gangway and shook hands with the local officials in charge of reception and the Chinese representatives. After that, Xiao Yihan and the others were surrounded by passionate foreign girls. When he saw his bad friend Yang Tianyou and his men smiling lewdly, Xiao Yihan could not help but curse inwardly," Beast!" However, when he was surrounded by two or three beautiful girls, he thought of his fierce wife at home. Should he go up or not? A serious question was placed in front of him.
When the Federation's consultant team received a warm welcome at Brantar Harbor, the Great Han Federation, which was thousands of miles away, also received the news at the first possible moment.
LY, the chill of winter had completely receded. The bright spring light lazily sprinkled on everyone. It was really a good time to sleep. Zhujin City, Great Ming Palace, Xuanzheng Hall. The noon sun shone through the glazed windows and sprinkled a halo in the hall. It showed the gorgeous and exquisite inner hall structure of the second hall of the Great Ming Palace. In the hall, the Prime Minister of the Federation, Jia Zhengdao, led the cabinet officials to discuss state affairs with the emperor.
"Your Majesty, the second fleet has already set off, but won't we anger Britain by doing this?”Prime Minister Jia Zhengdao said.
Tian Zi frowned at the Prime Minister and said,""Prime Minister, you are worrying too much! Do we have to listen to the British when we do things?”
"That's right, our country has never been afraid of anyone in the past thousand years. If the British are obedient, then everything will be fine. If they dare to intercept our fleet, then they can take the opportunity to take back Guangdong.”The Bureau of Military Affairs 'Grand Marshal, Zhao Mingluo, who was sitting at the side, retorted indifferently.
However, a minister quickly retorted,""Grand Marshal, you are wrong. Ever since the last economic crisis, our Federation has not recovered. If we go to war with other countries in vain, it will increase the Federation's finances. The Prime Minister is also thinking for the people of the Federation.”
Many ministers also agreed with the Prime Minister, thinking that it was better not to provoke Britain too much.
The current situation not only infuriated Grand Marshal Zhao, but it also made the Emperor, who was leading this operation, unhappy.
"Alright, this is my decision. Do I need you to teach me right or wrong?”Seeing Tian Zi's unfriendly expression, the ministers also shut their mouths.
"Your Majesty, you've misunderstood. Since it's Your Majesty's decision, we have nothing to say.”Jia Zhengdao saw that the emperor was unhappy and quickly spoke up.
"We have nothing to say. Please calm down, Your Majesty!”Immediately, most of the ministers in the hall echoed the Prime Minister.
Seeing that the cabinet was almost a one-man show, the emperor and the Grand Commandant felt even more hatred in their hearts. "Since all the beloved ministers have agreed, then the matter will be handed over to the Grand Commandant.”
"I respect Your Majesty's orders."
"Today's cabinet meeting will end here.”
"Yes, we will take our leave."
Watching the officials leave the Hall of Political Announcement one by one, the Emperor Liu Hong stood up with a gloomy expression. Accompanied by the palace maids, he walked towards the Qianqing Hall.
In the Qianqing Palace, the emperor met with Zhao Mingluo once again.
"Your Majesty, you have seen the situation today. Jia Zhengdao actually has the support of so many ministers. It seems that he was not informed of this operation and was unhappy, so he objected in front of Your Majesty!”The Grand Commandant frowned when he thought of today's situation.
Tian Zi sneered,"Humph, it's not just him who's unhappy, but everyone behind him is unhappy." This time, I and the Great General have left them to act alone, so that bunch of vermin can't get any benefits, so they came to remind me.”
"How dare they offend His Majesty like this? Do they want to be Wang Mang?”The Grand Commandant was even more furious.
"Hehe, Wang Mang? At least before Wang Mang usurped power, he still had a humble and thrifty face. As for them? You look like a villain who has achieved success. You really think I'm a stupid ruler. If they go, when the time is right, I will deal with them! Alright, Grand Commandant, let's think about our next move. This concerns my future plans.”
"Your Majesty is right."
Just as the monarch and his subjects were discussing their next move in Ganqing Palace, in an ordinary side hall in Zhujin City. Ten eunuchs with the highest status in the Federation were also in a meeting. The leader was the attendant who had been outside the Jiaofang Palace when the prince was born. He was Gao Hai, the most powerful eunuch leader in the Federation.
"Eunuch Gao, why did you suddenly call my servant and the eunuchs over?”A tall and thin eunuch asked.
Feeling the gazes of the eunuchs, Gao Hai cleared his throat and said,""Everyone, it has been more than half a century since we eunuchs took control of the federation again during the reign of the late emperor. I don't know if everyone feels that some of the power in our hands has been lost.”
Gao Hai's words shocked everyone present. A fat eunuch said,""Eunuch Gao, what are you saying? Did something big happen?”
"Hehe, could it be that Eunuch Zhao doesn't know about the assistance the Federation has given to the two countries in the East Continent?”Gao Hai sneered.
"Of course I've heard of it. What does that have to do with what you're saying?”
"Hmph, if Tian Zi didn't suddenly make this move, even I would still be in the dark. It must be known that His Majesty almost abandoned us and acted alone in this operation. It was only when he reached a secret agreement with the two countries and sent out the required materials that I was alerted. Don't you know what this means?”
After hearing Gao Hai's words, everyone present was shocked. Of course, they understood what this meant. "Could it be that His Majesty has cultivated his own forces behind our backs?”
"This isn't cultivation. His Majesty took advantage of our lack of attention and nibbled away my power.”
"Your Majesty, do you know what we did when the former emperor was still in power?”
"Hiss, what should we do then? This is a great crime that requires execution!”
Looking at everyone's panicked whispers, Gao Hai laughed contemptuously and said loudly,""Alright, we've already been disturbed. The important thing now is how to deal with it.”
"Then what should we do? Eunuch Gao, what ideas do you have?”
"Yes, Eunuch Gao, you're the only one who has a solution now.”
At this moment, all the eunuchs were looking at Gao Hai with hope, hoping that he would have some brilliant plan.
Looking at everyone, Gao Hai said with a ferocious expression,""What should we do? Now, the only way is to rely on the little prince. Think about it, if the young and ignorant prince ascends the throne and becomes the emperor. Then we'll be fine!”
The room immediately fell silent, as if the temperature had dropped by a few degrees. Everyone looked at Gao Hai's face in horror. They seemed to understand, but they didn't want to.
Finally, someone couldn't stand the environment and said in a trembling voice,"" But His Majesty is still alive. Does that mean…"
Under Gao Hai's cold gaze, the man swallowed his words.
"Hmph, I know what you are thinking, but if the emperor completely strips away the power in our hands, even if His Majesty is merciful and doesn't kill us, there are still many people who want to kill me. Do you think you can survive like this?”
Gazing at everyone, Gao Hai continued,""Instead of waiting for death, why don't we take advantage of the fact that we still have the strength to fight?”
Everyone was pondering over Gao Hai's words. After a long time, the fat Eunuch Zhao gritted his teeth and said,"Since Duke Gao has said so, we have nothing to hesitate about.”
"Alright, let's fight. We're going to die anyway.”
"Yes, perhaps we can still survive if we go all out. Duke Gao, we'll listen to your commands from now on.”
" Since everyone has thought it through, let's start discussing what to do next…"
As time passed, the conspiracy that would shock the Federation in the future was born in this inconspicuous room.
