Bohard bowed and said he did not dare, but said very seriously: "His Royal Highness, I hope you know that the latest six million Taylor money needed will not be spent in Prussia. This is for British friends. This is His Royal Highness Anne's handwritten letter."

"His Highness Anne?" Joseph was a little puzzled. He could not think of any other noble lord in Europe that could be called this.

Bohad did not explain, but handed over the letter. When Joseph opened it, he found that it was written in English. He thought for a moment and invited his own tutor. The tutor was proficient in English. His reading made Joseph know that His Highness Anne is the second daughter of King James II of England, the wife of Prince George of Denmark, and His Highness Anne.

If it weren't for the restoration of James II, after the death of King William and Queen Mary, and the two had no children, this Princess Anne should have been the current King of England.

What's even more surprising is that Princess Anne expressed her firm will. She claimed that she had received support from Catholics in the UK and would go to England soon, deposed his father and turn Britain into a Protestant country again. Anne asked for the support of the Habsburg dynasty as the future king of England.

"...........Dignity Your Majesty, you may be uneasy because you support a Protestant to seize the throne of the Catholic king, but Britain is special. Now you support the enemy of Louis XIV. All I have obtained is the throne of England, and the noble one will receive the support of a powerful country..." Princess Anne said in her handwritten letter.

Joseph finally understood what Bohrhard said, if the six million Taylor money could really make Queen Anne successfully seize power, it would mean that France lost one arm, and the Grand Alliance had another strong ally. Once in and out, the effect could indeed exceed 100,000 soldiers, and it would not be an exaggeration to reach 200,000 soldiers.

"I need to discuss with His Majesty." Joseph said to Bohard in a difficult position.

Crown Prince Joseph hurried away and came to the emperor's foot. Leobed and his ministers were almost infuriated after hearing Crown Prince Joseph's story. Six million Taylors were exchanged for Britain's betrayal of France, which was really cost-effective!

Only Leobed hesitated for a moment, but for only a moment, his face turned rosy because of excitement. Leobed said: "I agree to the mobilization of this political fund, and its priority will exceed the military expenses given to Eugen.

I originally thought that we had lost our British allies, but now it seems that we have a chance to return to the glory of the Great Alliance era. This time, Louis XIV cannot escape, and I want him to know that even the sun will set."

Leobed was very happy with such a result, two of which were particularly happy.

Even if Princess Anne fails, six million Taylors can put Britain in a civil war, so Louis XIV will lose an important ally, which is extremely beneficial to Habsburg.

Secondly, Leobed discovered that the plan to restore Queen Anne was formulated by the King of Prussia and Dutch President Heinsius, and has always been concealed from China in the East. Now, they come to ask for their own assistance, which means that a political concept proposed by Leobed is generally accepted in European countries, and that is: European affairs are solved by Europeans.

Leobed is tired of the yellow-sex Chinese from the East. Over the years, in the wars in Europe, they participate whenever they want, and do not participate when they want to, support whoever they want, and get as much as they want. Often, countries pay countless prices, but the final cake is cut by China. Now, Leobed has hope to end all this.

Bohad was invited to Emperor Leobed. After the emperor personally agreed to the plan and wanted to write a reply to Princess Anne, Bohad took out another letter. After reading it, his confidence in the success of the plan increased by three points.

The letter was written by Churchill, the Duke of Marlborough in England and the Governor of Scotland, to Princess Anne, in which he offered all his loyalty to the Queen and sent his wife, Anne's young best friend, to Prussia to contact the matter.

Duke Anne was about to be the year old, Sara secretly went to Amsterdam. When the time came, she immediately welcomed Anne back to London and was crowned king.

In the eyes of Austrian monarchs and ministers, if the Duke of Marlborough raised an army, at least Britain would fall into a new round of civil war, then six million Taylors would have played a role.

In April, the thirty-eighth year of the empire, the London Coal Exchange.

This building was originally a textile exchange, and wool textiles such as wool velvet produced in the UK were traded here.

However, after the Great Alliance War, Britain fell into a civil war and the textile industry had declined. London's textile status in Europe gave way to Lille in France and Amsterdam in the Netherlands. Cotton textiles from China occupied the British mid-to-high-end market. On the contrary, Britain's coal mining industry developed only because the Chinese came.

The Chinese trade in the New World of America grew year by year, steam-powered merchant ships traveled between Europe and the East, and China's steam pumps also appeared in mines in the UK, Portugal, Spain and France, as well as those colonial mines. In Europe, especially Western Europe, the only one who can produce coal on a large scale.

British coal mines are mostly close to the sea, shallow in burial, easy to mine, relatively close to the sea, and close to the iron ore area, so the conditions are unique.

Before the Civil War, Britain mined only about two million tons of coal every year. However, with the increase in demand in China and Europe, and the new iron smelting technology introduced by its own country from the East, the coal-steel industry has achieved great development, and the coal exchange has naturally become brilliant.

The street where the coal exchange is located is the most prosperous place in London. A private room on the third floor opened the curtains, and Duke Churchill, holding coffee, looked at the view outside the window with disappointment. Apart from this street, the whole of London was much more depressed. The city of London, which had a population of more than 400,000, now has a population of less than 320,000.

"Duke, I didn't expect to see you so early." Four or five old men entered the private room, and one of them said to Churchill with a smile.

Churchill put down his coffee cup and warmly greeted these old men. These old men were veterans of the Whigs and Tories. During the Glorious Revolution, they were the ones who led William to replace James II as king. At that time, although Churchill had military power, he was still a small person in front of these people.

Later, James II was restored, and these people were hunted down, some fled overseas, some fled to the countryside, and some led troops to fight against the royal army. When James II was about to end the civil war, they were pardoned, and these people were able to appear in the city of London.

The formerly high-ranking parliamentary tycoons are now gathered by Churchill. It can be said that they have been in the east and the west for thirty years.

This was the second time Churchill came to London after James II's restoration. Now his power in Scotland has been stabilized, and he is not afraid that James II will hold a banquet in Hongmen.

"I heard that the king was going to expand his standing army and would go to the parliament today," Churchill said.

Several bigwigs said in unison: "The king will not do what he wants, and Britain cannot be trapped in a war again."

In order to seek the end of the civil war, James II reconvened the parliament four years ago. However, unlike the parliament that year, a large number of Catholic aristocracy were filled with them, but the new bourgeois aristocracy and Protestant aristocracy still occupied many seats. More importantly, the once opposed Tory and Whig parties had reached an agreement on the issue of dealing with the king. With them, James II was doomed to fail.

"If you don't agree, the king will dissolve the parliament," Churchill said.

"Isn't this exactly what we want to see? Queen Anne should be back in London."

Churchill nodded: "I'm here to discuss a key issue with you, that is, how to deal with King James after our plan is successful."

After letting everyone sit down, Churchill said, "You must know that Anne is different from Mary. She is a weak person. When the glorious revolution was made, Princess Anne felt guilty towards James II, and wrote a letter to him who was in exile in France to ask for forgiveness.

My wife even told me that after Anne arrived in Amsterdam, she discussed with His Excellency Heinsius whether she could support James III as the king after the plan was successful...."

"This is absolutely not possible."

"Yes, absolutely not. Although James III was young, he was also a Catholic. As long as we succeed, the king of England will never allow Catholics to be involved."

For a moment, the crowd was infuriated.

"Don't be excited, fortunately, Lord Heinsius has sternly rejected this proposal for us. We only recognize Anne as the queen. Although she has no heirs, we will definitely only support the Protestant king in the future." Churchill reiterated this concept.

After everyone was quiet, Churchill said: "I said this just to let everyone know that James II must give way, but we must deal with him gently and decently. One thing that must not happen is that we cannot assassinate or hurt his life for other reasons."

Several people looked at each other and nodded. The reason was very simple. Anne loved her father deeply, and everyone present was a key member of the future new British government. Although Queen Anne would not have absolute power, she was still the queen and was not a mascot. Everyone could not serve Anne as the enemy who killed her father.

Especially this Anne is an emotional person. If she bears the identity of her father-killing enemy, her political future will end.

"I suggest imprisoning the king to Scotland."

“How about exile overseas?”

"No, we have no stable colonies overseas."

"Leave it to the Chinese, James II has a good relationship with the Chinese."

"It would be better to let him go on purpose and let him continue to go into exile in France like King William did."

Several people discussed it, and gradually became a debate. Churchill was a little helpless. Obviously, these political veterans were a little confused.

After a long discussion, everyone came up with a generally accepted opinion - to capture the James II family and leave it to Queen Anne for disposal. But some people were worried that the Queen would leave a disaster to Britain because of her weakness and kindness.

Slowly, the ashtray on the table was filled with cigarette butts, and the topic turned to how to treat the Governor of Ireland, Fitz James, the illegitimate son of James II.

But this is still a problem with no results. Although these people want to get his help, the problem is that they cannot afford the price, because Fitz James has close contact with China, and from the beginning, this plan must be kept secret from China, otherwise it will never succeed.

Ten years later, these powerful figures in Britain had long understood. China doesn’t care who will be the king, or whether the king is a Catholic or a Protestant. What China really cannot accept is Britain after the Glorious Revolution, but these British aspiring people hope that Britain will restore its glory after the Glorious Revolution again.

As for the reason, Britain after the Glorious Revolution was a constitutional monarchy, and now the most powerful country in the world is also this political system. Constitutional monarchy has become a prominent scholar in European political science. The knowledgeable people of Britain have understood that China supported France's attack on Britain and the restoration of James II, not just greedy for the British colonies, but because of the Glorious Revolution, they took the right path.

The more the enemy opposes, the more we have to do it. The British also understand this principle.

It was at this moment that a violent explosion came from outside the window, and the glass window vibrated, followed by another explosion, followed by a blurred gunshot.

Everyone in the room squatted down, Churchill's head drilled out of the window and looked at the direction of the explosion: "It's the direction of the parliament. At this time, the king should arrive at the parliament."

"Duke Churchill, did you arrange it?"

"Are you a fool? If it was my arrangement, I should be in Scotland at this time. Did any of you have a confused idea?"

"Of course not." Several people shouted that they were wronged.

At this time, Churchill's guards came in and asked Churchill to leave London immediately. Churchill thought about it and thought that leaving at this time was equivalent to admitting that it was his own, so he decided to stay.

London was in chaos for two hours until the afternoon when two Tory MPs arrived at the coal exchange and brought details of the explosion.

It was indeed King James II's convoy that encountered an attack. At that time, the King's convoy had just arrived in front of the parliament, but thousands of people protested in front of the parliament. These people had a very complicated identity, including farmers from the countryside, workshop owners in the city, and a large number of workers and farmers.

They are either textile industry practitioners or upstream and downstream practitioners of the industry, demanding that the parliament increase taxes on wool textiles from France and the Netherlands to protect the domestic textile industry.
