Chapter 1592 The idea of ????going to Europe in person

The Queen of Britain's envoys came to the capital after a long sea voyage.

In the past, Britain sent envoys as King Charles, and this was the first time that it had sent envoys to the East as Queen Sophia.

The mission came this time to bring greetings to the Queen and also requested assistance to build the Queen's College.

This time, the scale of the British envoy was much more luxurious than before. Many nobles joined the envoys to the East with the mentality of paying attention to the queen's husband and the prosperous East.

"This is the letter given to you by Her Majesty the Queen, please send me my own words." The head of the envoy gave a letter to Chu Yun.

Chu Yun took out the kraft paper bag in front of the envoy, took out the letter paper inside, which had the smell of perfume on it, and used Chinese characters.

In the letter, Sophia roughly apologized for hiding his affairs, explaining the situation of the little prince now, and then directly proposed to get a batch of aid. Finally, she invited Chu Yun to Europe to name the little prince.

"It really fits the character of Suo... your queen." Chu Yun read the letter twice, and he was also incredible.

Unexpectedly, he actually had a son who had arrived in Europe with the fleet and became the crown prince of the Stuart royal family, named Prince Henry. Sophia was still waiting for Chu Yun to give this young son a name.

As for the matter of Sofia asking for help directly, Chu Yun was not disgusted with it, but was more comfortable to be straightforward.

"After Her Majesty was successfully crowned in England and Scotland, she immediately sent us to the East to inform you of this good news. Her Majesty invites you to travel to Europe if you have time. Her Majesty will hold a grand banquet to entertain you." The envoy said.

"..." Chu Yun probably knew that Sophia was hiding his pregnancy, and probably wanted to let herself go to Europe.

When he went to Europe, Chu Yun did not have this idea, but the distance between the East and the West was too far. He was not only worried that something would happen to the storm on the sea, but also afraid that something would happen to his local area when he was away.

However, in recent years, the local area has gradually stabilized, and many people have become accustomed to the current system. If the Goryeo Province is established and East Asia is unified, then there is indeed a period of free time to go to Europe with confidence.

"Wait for two or three years, if I have time, I might go to Europe." Chu Yun said.

"That's great, Her Majesty the Queen will be delighted by your arrival," said the envoy.

"As for the Queen's request to send a group of lecturers to establish the Queen's College, I can recruit a group of volunteers from the Beijing University or other universities to London. As for how many people are willing to go to the city of London, it's hard to say." Chu Yun said.

"Sir, you are so generous, we are so grateful." The envoys were surprised that Chu Yun easily agreed to send a group of lecturers.

They did not expect that the Oriental, who married the Stuart royal family, was so easy to talk to.

"What's the situation in Europe?" Chu Yun thought to go to Europe, of course he was not traveling.

Since you plan to go to Europe in the future, you will definitely not be able to go empty-handed and return empty-handed. You have to find some benefits locally to come back.

"France, the Netherlands, and Sweden are not aligned and are attacking the Habsburg dynasty. The Spanish king and the Holy Roman emperor will not last for a few years. It is estimated that France, the Netherlands, and Sweden will win the final victory. Our England still maintains a neutral position and will not easily intervene in the continental dispute. What's more, we England have just ended the civil war and the queen is carrying out reforms. If we intervene in the outside war easily, it will cause our turmoil."

"Have your queen reformed?"

"That's why she intends to re-sort the relationship between the king and the parliament and gain an advantage in the competition with the Netherlands, France, Spain..."

The envoy mentioned Sophia's reform measures one by one. Chu Yun nodded as he heard it. Sophia almost copied the changes she saw here to the West.

"You will stay in the capital for a few more days this time. I think you will re-identify our country and have a deeper understanding." After the talks, Chu Yun sent them out of the mansion very politely.

After the English envoys left, they couldn't help but talk about the queen's husband privately. He was not in the Western aristocratic system. They were originally worried that Chu Yun and the emperors of Central and Western Asia in the Ottoman Empire, the Persian Empire were as arrogant and rude as the emperors of Central and Western Asia. However, the conversations after Chu Yun met them made them realize that this person was different from the rulers of the Ottoman Empire and Persian Empire, and he was more knowledgeable and reasonable.

"It seems that our concerns are redundant. He only cares about secular interests and does not care about faith."

"He easily promised to send a group of lecturers to our England, for the sake of Her Majesty the Queen? We read King Charles' previous negotiation records with the East, and almost every request was paid, but this time the other party did not raise any price."

"I think we'll stay in the East for a while. There are many new things here. If we can introduce our England, it will be enough to make a civilian one of the largest wealthy businessmen in London."

While whispering, the envoys walked to the area where the English ambassador to China was guided by diplomatic officials.

Chu Yun returned to the mansion.

Of course, a group of lecturers in England are not only for Sophia's sake, but are actually based on the needs of cultural communication. Cultural communication requires a carrier, otherwise why would others learn a strange language?

One way to effectively spread culture is trade. In order to survive, merchants, sailors, and crew members have to learn the other party's language. In addition to trade, there are also wars, colonization, education, etc.

To let the other party learn Chinese, you have to give them some benefits.

Chu Yun could spread a batch of not-so-core technologies. As bait, all books were written in Chinese, tempting the other party to have to learn Chinese in order to learn knowledge.

At present, most of the people in the West who can read books are nobles. If the nobles learn Chinese instead of Latin and Greek, then the local upper class will be able to regard Chinese as an international common language.

Perhaps the technology will soon become outdated, but once a common international language forms a conventional rule, all papers will be published in Chinese, which will allow the East to occupy a greater voice.

"Sir, are you planning to go to Europe to visit Sofia's sister?" Several women in the mansion now knew that Sofia was lucky to give birth to a son.

"Should wait for two or three years, I will take dozens of warships over to travel through the local customs and customs." Chu Yun said.
