Make France Great Again

Chapter 906 Anglo-Persian Peace Talks

Jérôme Bonaparte, who heard that Cowley was still serving as the British ambassador to France, was slightly startled, and then asked Cowley curiously.

"Then...the ambassador from the embassy now..."

"He has returned to Britain!" Ambassador Cowley said calmly.

"Well..." Jérôme Bonaparte hesitated. He really didn't understand why the British Kingdom frequently changed ambassadors.

Ambassador Cowley left France less than a month ago, and the new ambassador arrived half a month ago. As a result, Ambassador Cowley came back again, and the new ambassador had to leave the British Embassy before he could warm up.

"Okay!" Jérôme Bonaparte nodded and responded to Ambassador Cowley, then suddenly thought of something and continued to ask: "By the way, you just said that the special envoy for negotiation is your temporary position!

I would like to ask Ambassador Cowley, can you fully represent the attitude of the British government on the issue of the Kingdom of Qajar? "

"Your Majesty, Prime Minister Palmerston has given me the right to act arbitrarily on the issue of the Qajar Dynasty!" Ambassador Cowley responded with his head lowered and respectfully.

"That's good!" Jerome Bonaparte nodded, and then asked: "Then Special Envoy Cowley, when are you willing to start the first peace talks with them!"

"It all depends on your Majesty, your arrangement!" Ambassador Cowley responded immediately, "Since this negotiation was facilitated by the French Empire, I am willing to follow the French Empire's arrangements!"

"In that case..." After Jerome Bonaparte thought for a moment, he suggested to Ambassador Cowley: "What do you think in two days?"

"Of course!" Ambassador Cowley replied to Jérôme Bonaparte without hesitation, "I just said that I am willing to follow the arrangements of the French Empire."

"Okay! The time is set in two days!" Jérôme Bonaparte also made the decision, and then he asked Ambassador Cowley if there was anything Britain wanted him to convey to the special envoy of the Kingdom of Qajar!

“Your Majesty, you can tell the special envoy of the Kingdom of Qajar in advance that we hope that the Kingdom of Qajar can negotiate with us based on the concept of peace!

We in Britain do not accept any behavior that violates the concept of peace and is arbitrary.

If the Kingdom of Qajar violates the above, the Kingdom of Britain will close the door to negotiations with the Kingdom of Qajar. "Ambassador Cowley responded decisively to Jérôme Bonaparte.

"Yes!" Jerome Bonaparte nodded and responded to Ambassador Cowley, "I will convey your words to the special envoy of the Kingdom of Qajar!"

"Your Majesty, I will leave first!" Ambassador Cowley bowed slightly to Jerome Bonaparte and then said.

"Yes!" Jerome Bonaparte agreed to Ambassador Cowley's departure.

After Ambassador Cowley left, Jérôme Bonaparte ordered Basilio to go to the hotel where the envoy of the Kingdom of Qajar lived to inform the envoy of the Kingdom of Qajar.

Basilio took the order and left. Half an hour later, the special envoy of the Kingdom of Qajar, Faroh Han Amin Molk, appeared in front of Jerome Bonaparte.

"Sit down!" Jérôme Bonaparte stretched out his hand to invite Envoy Faroh Han Amin Molk to sit down.

Envoy Farroch followed Jérôme Bonaparte's order and sat opposite him.

At the same time, Basilio also backed out of the study.

Only Jérôme Bonaparte and Farroch were left in the room. Jérôme Bonaparte smiled and said to Farroh: "Envoy Farroh, you have been in Paris for a while! "

"Your Majesty, I have been staying in Paris for more than a week! If this continues, I really don't know when I will be able to..." A helpless smile appeared on the corner of Special Envoy Farroh's mouth.

Anyone who is not familiar with Farroh cannot help but praise Farroh as a "good envoy".

"Thank you for your hard work!" Jérôme Bonaparte pretended to say to Envoy Farroch.

Others didn't know Farroch's whereabouts, so how could Jérôme Bonaparte, special envoy of Farroh, send someone to keep an eye on him!

During the more than a week that Farroh was in Paris, he went to the Opera House almost every day.

And his purpose of going to the opera house is not for official business, but to find his own "true love" in the opera house.

Jerome Bonaparte also knew that Farroh spent a lot of money in order to find "true love".

In just over a week, he has spent nearly more than 10,000 francs, which can be said to be a veritable mistake.

He maintained a completely opposite attitude as to when the British envoy would arrive in Paris.

Except for going to Tuyinleli Palace some time ago to inquire, there was no sign of any anxiety on his part at other times.

"Your Majesty, it's not hard! It's not hard at all!" Farroh responded to Jérôme Bonaparte.

"Okay! It's time to get down to business!" Jerome Bonaparte's expression suddenly turned serious, "The special envoy sent by the Kingdom of Britain has now arrived in Paris!"

"Really?" Farroh asked Jérôme Bonaparte with an expression of joy on his face.

"Of course it's true!" Jérôme Bonaparte responded to Farroch firmly, "The British envoy just came here to let me tell you that they are willing to negotiate with you!"

"That's great!" Farroch said happily: "Did the British envoy say when negotiations can begin!"

"The British envoy said that he can negotiate at any time, so I set the time for negotiations in two days!" Jérôme Bonaparte responded to Farroh.

"Thank you for your help to the Kingdom of Qajar!" Farroh quickly stood up and bowed deeply to Jerome Bonaparte.

"No! It doesn't have to be like this!" Jérôme Bonaparte shook his head and responded to Farroch, "I just did what I could!"

"Your Majesty, your actions to the best of your ability have given us immeasurable help!" Farroh raised his head slightly and responded to Jérôme Bonaparte.

"However, the British envoy also told me that their negotiations with you are conditional!" Jerome Bonaparte responded to Farroh again.

"Your Majesty, what are the conditions?" Farroh immediately asked Jérôme Bonaparte.

Jérôme Bonaparte told Farroh the "conditions" of Britain. After hearing this, Farroh was stunned for a few seconds.

As the special envoy of the Kingdom of Qajar, he really didn't understand what the British envoy meant.

So, Farroch asked Jérôme Bonaparte: "Your Majesty, does this condition proposed by the British Kingdom mean something else?"

"There should be!" Jérôme Bonaparte said vaguely.

"Excuse me, what does the Kingdom of Britain mean?" Farroh asked Jerome Bonaparte sincerely.

"According to my speculation, the British Kingdom probably wants you to position yourself!

Don't propose unrealistic armistice conditions! " Jérôme Bonaparte responded to Faroh.

"What are unrealistic conditions?" Farroh asked again.

Jérôme Bonaparte shrugged his shoulders and said to Farroch: "Probably let you prepare to be slaughtered!"

"Ah!" Farroch said to Jérôme Bonaparte anxiously, "Your Majesty, what should we do now?"

"It's enough to give up some of the benefits appropriately!" Jérôme Bonaparte said in a brisk tone.

"What part of the interests should be given up?" Farroh, who was confused and confused, asked Jérôme Bonaparte again.

"Just follow what I said last time. When the time comes, you..."

Time passed in a hurry, and soon it came time for peace talks between the Kingdom of Qajar and the Kingdom of Britain.

At 1:45 in the afternoon on this day, Cowley, the special envoy of the British Kingdom, set off from the British Embassy in a carriage, passed through several bustling streets, and finally arrived at Duyinli Palace in the capital around 1:55.

Basilio, who was responsible for greeting him at the door, saw Ambassador Cowley's carriage in the distance and hurriedly stepped forward to greet him.

Ambassador Cowley got off the carriage, looked at Basilio, nodded slightly and said, "Thank you for your hard work! Chief Basilio!"

"You're welcome!" Basilio responded humbly to Ambassador Cowley.

Under the leadership of Basilio, Ambassador Cowley entered the place where the royal meeting was held in the Tuileries Palace. Today, this place will become the place where the British Kingdom and the Qaga Kingdom mediate disputes.

At this time, Farroh Han Amin Molk, the negotiator of the Kingdom of Qajar, had already arrived. Looking at the "late arrival" of the British envoy Cowley, Farroh showed a kind smile.

The British envoy Cowley also smiled, and then stretched out his hand to shake Farroch's hand.

After a simple handshake, the two parties sat on both sides of the round table specially prepared for them by Jérôme Bonaparte.

After the grandfather clock struck twice dullly, Jérôme Bonaparte slowly appeared.

The British envoy and the Qagad envoy stood up at the same time and looked at Jerome Bonaparte.

Under the gaze of the two envoys, Jérôme Bonaparte sat on the throne step by step, and then said to the British envoy and Qagad envoy seriously: "It's time to begin!"

The British envoy and the Kaiga envoy sat down at the same time, and then the translators and scribes from both sides also sat around them, and the negotiation officially began.

The British envoy first criticized the Qajar Kingdom for invading the capital of Herat, and then proposed that the Qajar Kingdom withdraw from Herat and recognize the Herat region as an independent and sovereign country.

After listening to the speech of the British envoy, the Qajar envoy immediately refuted the idea of ​​invasion based on history. Faroch said that the Qajar Kingdom has undisputed sovereignty over Herat... However, for the sake of peace in Central Asia, they are willing to Soldiers evacuate Herat, relinquishing claims to the city.

After the first round of negotiations, the British envoys got the promise they wanted.

Immediately afterwards, the second round began.

The British envoy hoped that the Kingdom of Qajar could give up its claim to some of the sovereign areas of the Kingdom of Afghanistan and recognize the sovereignty of the Kingdom of Afghanistan.

After a certain amount of verbal exchanges between the Qajar Kingdom's envoys and the British envoys, they also agreed to Britain's conditions.
