June 1830, Windsor Castle.
George IV, the King of the United Kingdom, the suzerain of Emperor William, the idle porn lover, and the financial loser who was always in debt, was finally going to fulfill the wishes of some members of the British Parliament who were unwilling to use public funds to pay off the King's debts.
No more.
However, the veteran Chinese medicine doctors of the Royal College of Physicians of Great Britain are still making their last efforts. Next to the king's bedside, a British Chinese medicine doctor with a long white beard, wearing a Chinese white silk robe and a square white gauze hat, is sitting on a chair.
, stretched out three fingers and put them on the wrist of George IV, who was about to die from poisoning after overdose.
The illegitimate children of George IV and the ministers of the British cabinet, as well as Princess Victoria, the second presumptive heir to the British throne and the first presumptive heir to the Indian throne, and the Archbishop of Canterbury, who is also an Anglican, have all arrived after hearing the news.
Everyone was waiting for their king to die with sad faces. But the most powerful old Chinese medicine doctor in Britain was still checking the king's pulse, with a look like "I am still trying to save the king."
Seeing the anxious and expectant eyes of everyone, the old British Chinese medicine doctor was also anxious!
Although he had made a diagnosis that the King of England was going to die soon, George IV just kept his breath and refused to swallow it. Just a few hours had passed. If the King did not die, everyone would doubt him.
Excellent medical skills.
Although I was a little unsure in my heart, this miracle doctor’s airs could not be downgraded!
So the old Chinese medicine doctor was checking his pulse, shaking his head, and sighing. At this moment, he suddenly heard a voice shouting: "Help me, I, I, I can't breathe!"
Just being short of breath is the symptom of yipian poisoning!
The old British traditional Chinese medicine doctor suddenly realized something. He quickly stared at the king's hospital bed and saw that George IV had opened his eyes at some point and opened his mouth. He seemed to be trying to inhale, but how could he?
They couldn't exert any effort. Then they saw the pot-bellied King of England twitching a few times and staring at his feet a few times. Finally, he reluctantly stopped struggling and lay motionless on the bed.
At this time, the old Chinese doctor took another pulse and opened the king's eyelids with his hands to take a look. Then he shook his head and announced: "His Majesty the King has passed away!"
The Archbishop of Canterbury of the Anglican Church immediately announced: "Called by the Father, His Majesty the King has left his country and people and returned to his loving Heavenly Father."
Immediately afterwards, everyone made the sign of the cross on their chests and prayed for the soul of their king. After praying, the archbishop knowingly asked: "Which English king will the Anglican Church pray for in the future?"
Prime Minister Duke Wellington hurriedly replied: "According to the British Succession Act, Emperor William of the Indian Empire will become the next king of the United Kingdom."
"Duke," asked the old archbishop, "are you saying that from now on, the Anglican Church and all the British people will pray for the Emperor of India?"
"Of course, this is His Highness the Archbishop who complies with the "Act of Succession to the Throne". Is there any problem?"
The archbishop shook his head and said: "No, there is no problem, I just find it strange. The British people pray for the Emperor of India. It sounds like Britain has become a colony of India."
"Britain became an Indian colony?" Duke Wellington almost laughed out loud, but when he thought that the British king was still here with his body still cold, he quickly held back and shook his head, "How is this possible? This is completely impossible unless India
Man, I mean a real Indian became the Prime Minister of our British Empire, otherwise our UK would not have been a colony. I don’t think such a thing would ever happen!”
Everyone present strongly agreed with Duke Wellington's judgment, and they all nodded heavily.
The Duke of Wellington added: "Now let us inform Emperor William of India about this sad news!"
"Duke," Viscount Palmerston asked inappropriately at this time, "then should we invite the Emperor to return to England for his coronation, or should we suggest that the Emperor be crowned in India?"
Wellington was in trouble again. Now that the Indian Empire was about to go to war with the Ming Empire, wouldn't it be appropriate for the emperor to run away at this time? But the emperor did not come to Britain, but was crowned in India. Then Britain really looked like an Indian colony.
.
Indian Empire, Bombay Palace.
Emperor William of the Indian Empire still doesn't know that he is about to colonize Britain, and he has no time to think about the British throne. He has been the powerful Indian Emperor for quite a while!
This is a true emperor!
Although the senior officials of the Indian government are all British and almost all are dispatched by the British government, legally speaking, the British government only has the power to recommend and not to appoint or remove.
And he is also the emperor over the Indian Parliament - the Indian Parliament is only an advisory body and has no power to formulate and pass any laws, nor can it control the budget or any personnel appointments. But it can decide the budget, laws, personnel appointments and dismissals,
There was only the will of the Indian Emperor.
It is no exaggeration to say that Emperor William now theoretically has almost as much power as, or even greater than, the Czar, the dictator of the Rakshasa Empire. Because Emperor William also has almost unrestricted "free taxation rights" in India
——For things like taxes, he can levy as much as he wants!
And there was really a lot of money, and Emperor William could spend it as he pleased without anyone asking.
This is a good thing that even the Tsar would not dare to think of!
In addition, Emperor William of India can also seek benefits for his illegitimate children at will. In fact, according to Indian laws and customary laws, he can even pass his throne to his illegitimate child who is not Princess Victoria!
What made Emperor William the happiest was that he only had to tell the loyal princes below about how many female slaves he wanted. As we all know, the emperor's two main hobbies were whipping slaves and having fornications with female slaves.
!
Moreover, no matter how many perverse things Emperor William did in India, he did not have to worry about the Indians making a fuss and overthrowing him. Because the Indians never made a fuss, and besides, the things he has done in India now -
—To monopolize power, arbitrarily tax, spend arbitrarily, beat slaves, and play with female slaves. In Europe, he is almost a tyrant, and he will most likely be guillotined.
But in India, where is this?
He is now the "merciful Emperor William" and a benevolent king!
So this Emperor William no longer loves Great Britain. He now wants to be the Emperor of India and stay there forever.
Another reason why Emperor William wanted to stay in India was that he wanted to personally command the upcoming naval battle in the Indian Ocean!
He was an admiral of the British Royal Navy. Later, he lost the opportunity to follow Earl Nelson to conquer the ocean because his brother arranged him to join the House of Lords of Parliament. And now he is the Emperor of India, the Commander-in-Chief of the Indian Armed Forces, and the Commander-in-Chief of the Royal Indian Navy.
Commander-in-Chief, there is also an unprecedented maritime battle for hegemony that will soon take place in the Indian Ocean, between the Ming Dynasty and India.
The vast ocean is a battlefield, and Emperor William wants to go into battle!
It was for this reason that he moved his capital from inland Delhi to Bombay, the home port of the Indian Grand Fleet.
