Chapter 853: The shadow of the famous tree

"It's very simple. Most of the people who are dissatisfied with Wilson this time are actually supporters of nobles and big capitals.

If I told them that you came back to London with some special ideas, and you said that this group of people who have no confidence in themselves and have been hoping to pull me into the water, would it be mistaken that Philip had other ideas and ventured to meet us? "

The first thing Li Changheng thought of was rejection.

After all, if Mountbatten hadn't given up on him, if he cooperated with him, he would be dragged into the water.

When the media broke the news, the original counterinsurgents instantly became those who participated in the rebellion.

Fortunately, Mountbatten quickly continued, "However, I have a condition."

"you say."

"Since there are so many people involved, Downing Street also knew about it early in the morning and notified Philip. It means that the secret that I was dragged into the water is difficult to keep.

So I need to redeem my reputation, and at the same time, my identity is an undercover agent who penetrates into the enemy's interior. "

Now Li Changheng actually believes Mountbatten really has no other thoughts, "Aren't you afraid of being regarded as a traitor?"

"Is there a difference?"

Li Changheng was taken aback for a moment, and then he realized that since one party would always be accused and hostile.

Then the two identities involved in the rebellion and peace rebels are chosen, and fools choose the latter.

......

At 4 o'clock in the afternoon, the people who had planned to meet at 3 o'clock, dragged for more than an hour, and finally came to Moretz Manor in Mountbatten together.

Five black-and-white Rolls-Royce Silver Charms parked at the entrance of the manor, while Mountbatten just took the housekeeper, standing under the porch to shelter from the rain while welcoming visiting guests.

What people did not expect was that the five cars had stopped for several minutes, but no one opened the door and got off the car.

Mountbatten was not in a hurry, anyway, there were at least twenty or thirty people from Li Changheng around him, and six of his own men were hiding in the dark and staring.

Several more minutes passed, probably because Mountbatten didn't look any eager.

A chubby middle-aged person of about 40 gets out of the car first, and other talents get out of the car one by one.

Brett King walked up to Mountbatten and said with a serious expression, "Good afternoon, Lord, can you ask why Lord Henry Selby Lee did not show up?"

Mountbatten said, "In order to avoid being photographed by reporters, Henry is not good at appearing in public, so he waited for us inside."

Brett King and more than a dozen people suddenly scolded in their hearts.

I went to the club as soon as I came back yesterday, and accompanied Philip to the horse racing this morning.

Look at the gloomy, empty, and silent manor in the rainy weather.

This is not suitable for appearing in public?

"Come in, gentlemen," Mountbatten said calmly, "Since it's already here, I'd better meet it first."

Brett King and others hesitated for a few seconds, and finally followed Mountbatten into the hall of the manor, and then came to a study room of at least 200 square meters.

Along the way, none of the guards and servants showed up. Some people in this group thought it was a good thing, but some also felt unclear.

It's really too quiet in the manor.

But when I entered the study room, I saw a man wearing a black suit with his hands behind his back, a figure straight and a little thin, with his back facing everyone looking at an oil painting in the study.

Everyone quickly recognized this person as Li Changheng.

Some people showed surprise expressions on their faces for an instant, but others suddenly became nervous.

Although Li Changheng's status is in England, it is far lower than Mountbatten, and even the people who ordered to be killed are not enough compared to Mountbatten's fraction.

But one is the commander-in-chief thirty years ago, and the other is the upstart who is known for his cruel heart and strong vengeance in recent years.

From a psychological point of view, of course everyone is more afraid of Li Changheng.

What no one knows is that there is not only a recording device in the study, but also a phone with the cord in the microphone cut off and only the handset is still working.

It has already connected Wilson in Downing Street with the main members of the Labor’s cabinet.

After Li Changheng looked back and saw the excitement or fear of the crowd, he smiled and nodded to Mountbatten, "Thank you, Dicky, please leave it to me next, okay?"

Mountbatten shrugged, "Of course, now you are the orderer."

fk.

asshole.

After listening to Mountbatten's words, a dozen people including Brett King immediately understood that they should be sold.

Li Changheng clapped his hands and interrupted the accusations. "Gentlemen, I am entrusted by His Majesty Philip and Sir Wilson to formally negotiate with you to try my best to avoid a division and turmoil that shouldn't occur."

As soon as the words split and unrest appeared, some people were already worried about sweating their foreheads.

Li Changheng walked to the main seat of the long conference table, looked at Mountbatten, and saw him shaking his head to himself.

Unceremoniously, he pulled the chair away and sat on the main seat, "Sit down, gentlemen, at the request of His Majesty Philip, we should sit down and have a good talk before things get to the point of irreversibility."

Moreover, there are only me and my dear uncle, Lord Mountbatten. "

When Brett King and others heard this, they were a little relieved.

Unfortunately, what this group of people didn't know was that Li Changheng's words were actually addressed to Wilson.

A group of people walked forward hesitantly and pulled back their chairs.

But when sitting down, the body subconsciously sits up straight, and some people even put their hands on their thighs.

Watching respectfully at Li Changheng with his legs cocked on the main seat.

Mountbatten looked at Li Changheng with a bit of surprise, and then at the dozen or so youngest nobles and rich people who could be Uncle Li Changheng's clever expressions.

I couldn't help but wonder if I was really old and couldn't keep up with the thinking of the times.

"First of all, we have to make it clear that you have been looking to replace the current first project, a plan to establish a temporary government, right?"

Wilson and others in Downing Street frowned subconsciously, blaming Li Changheng for not having any negotiation skills.

As soon as I came up, I wanted to convict the opponents.

And sitting on the other side of the long table, Brett King, who was facing Li Changheng's position, hurriedly pressed his hands on the table.

Anxiously explained, "Lord Selby, it may be because of your success ~lightnovelpub.net~ and your birth is already after the war.

So it’s not as deep as our disappointment towards this country and the witness party.

But over the years, as smart as you, you should be able to see that England is on the verge of bankruptcy, national security is shattered, and allies have left us one by one.

And judging from the situation of the pound at this time, the second depreciation in three years is inevitable.

At that time, perhaps we will beg for the aid of the Americans for the second time without dignity. "

Li Changheng frowned and thought for a moment, looking forward to everyone at the scene and Tangning Street and others on the phone.

I was very happy, but sighed with a serious expression, "Gentlemen, I may be more pessimistic than you. Maybe the pound sterling will drop to around 1.5 dollars in 20 to 30 years."

"This is impossible."
