If he can make peace with the Chinese Empire, of course Rama III has no opinion, which is tantamount to finding a strong backer for Thailand, not to mention in the world, at least in the Far East, no country dares to offend Thailand. It's just that the emperor of the Chinese Empire will take a fancy to his daughter? Rama III was not at all sure. Although the emperor of the Chinese Empire was very young, this young emperor was a racist with a distinct personality, which can be seen from the way the Chinese Empire treated the natives of Nanyang and other countries.

"Your Majesty, even if it's unlikely, we can give it a try! Although the sixteenth princess is only fourteen years old, she is beautiful and moving, and she is the first beauty in our Thailand, and perhaps the emperor of the Chinese Empire will take a fancy to it. Duke Pacan said.

Rama III nodded, although he had fifty-one children, the six princes were the six princes, Silithai, and the sixteenth princess, Amami. It's just that the untimely death of the sixth prince Helithai made Rama III very sad. For the sixteenth princess Amemi, this pearl in the palm of her hand is even more loved. Sending his beloved daughter to China, Rama III was a little reluctant. However, if he could make peace with the Chinese emperor, Rama III would have no opinion. On the one hand, no matter how beautiful a woman is, she also needs to find a man, what man is more powerful than the emperor of the Chinese Empire? On the other hand, Thailand can also get a strong reinforcement, and its own crisis can be resolved.

"Okay. You can try this method. If the Chinese can agree, it will be even better. But if the Chinese disagree. We're not going to sit still. From now on, let the military of the whole country increase their combat readiness, and if the Chinese want to attack us, we will make them pay a heavy price! Rama III said. Although, he did not want war to break out, however, in order to protect Thailand. He had no choice but to fight to the death. Now Thailand has a population of five million, the number of troops. There are also 60,000 people. If the army is expanded on the largest scale, the number of troops can be further increased. In addition, with the development of the economy, the equipment of the Thai army has also been greatly improved. Before the rise of the Chinese Empire. Thailand is definitely a powerful force in the South Seas. Otherwise, it would have been impossible to resist the invasion of the British.

"Yes, Your Majesty! I plan to go to Guangzhou in person to meet with the high-ranking officials of the Chinese Empire, hoping that we will be able to make peace with the Chinese Empire. Duke Pacan said. In order to survive this crisis, the whole of Thailand is united.

"Hmmm! I wish you success! Rama III said. Although, Rama III believed that the chances of success were slim, however. Even if the chances are small, he wants to give it a try. If it succeeds. There are so many benefits for Thailand. At the very least, Thailand doesn't have to worry about being wiped out.

The Duke of Pakon set out that afternoon on a Thai merchant ship to Canton, ready to make contact with the Chinese Empire. The merchant ship was loaded with some Thai specialties and money, and Duke Pakang knew that if he wanted to succeed in his mission, he would inevitably have to pay a price. If you think about it, this is also the pathetic of Thailand, a country that lowers its profile and sends the most beautiful women to others, which is completely a cowardly and incompetent expression. However, for the sake of the country, they had to do it. Otherwise, the country will be ruined.

At the same time, Pacom's henchmen also sailed to Calcutta, India, to prepare for active contact with the British. If peace with the Chinese Empire fails, Thailand will have to rely on Britain to fight against the Chinese Empire. Of course, it is difficult to say whether the British will help them. After all, the British have been in the hands of the Chinese Empire more than once, and although Thailand's geographical location is important, it seems a little uneconomical to tear up the face of the Chinese Empire for the sake of a small Thailand. The current Britain and the Chinese Empire are trying their best to avoid the outbreak of war between the two countries, otherwise, war will definitely break out, and it will not be beneficial for the two countries.

After the secret agreement between the Chinese Empire and the British, the entire Pearl River Estuary had returned to peace. Although the Chinese Empire and the Kingdom of Portugal were still at war, there was no fear that the Portuguese would come to war. Everyone knows very well that with the strength of the Kingdom of Portugal, there is no way to control the Chinese Empire. Even in order not to further anger China, the Kingdom of Portugal did not even attack the merchant ships traveling between the East and the West. Obviously, the Kingdom of Portugal did not want to have a great enmity with the Chinese Empire.

The British government complied with the agreement, and their garrison on Hong Kong Island was numbered at about 5,000 men. The Chinese Empire also sent an infantry brigade to garrison the Kowloon Peninsula, and a fleet of 10 Shark-class cruisers of the Coast Guard fleet also frequently made rounds around the Pearl River estuary. Whether on land or at sea, the strength of the Chinese Empire was much stronger than that of the British forces in Hong Kong, and as long as the British were not caught in the door, they would not take the initiative to provoke disputes.

When Duke Pakon's merchant ship arrived in Guangzhou, it was already March 8th, looking at the busy wharf, Duke Pakon's heart was full of envy, and the prosperity of industry and commerce showed the strength of the country in a large way. Although Thailand has also developed well in recent years, it is much behind compared with the Chinese Empire. Thailand is fundamentally an agrarian country. Because of the fertile soil and abundant sunlight, Thailand's grain production is very high, and the grain produced every year is simply not eaten at all, and a large number of them are sold abroad. The Chinese Empire was originally a populous country, especially in the areas north of the Yangtze River, and there were still many people who did not have enough to eat. It is precisely because of this that Thailand, which is rich in natural resources, was targeted by the emperor of the Chinese Empire. If the Chinese Empire could conquer Thailand, it would be able to emigrate to Thailand by at least 10 million. This can not only effectively relieve the pressure at home, but also build a huge granary for the empire.

After Duke Pakang disembarked in Canton, he was picked up by the Thai minister in Canton. Although Duke Pacan and his entourage are very low-key, how can an important minister of a country come to China to hide it? The Military Intelligence Bureau and the National Security Bureau of the Chinese Empire had already known about this. However, Thailand posed little threat to the Chinese Empire, and after determining that they were not a threat, the Military Intelligence Agency and the National Security Agency ignored them.

"Lord Duke, the journey is tiring, your lord should rest first, I have already arranged it in the evening, in order to wash the dust to pass the wind." Thai Minister to China Bassoon said.

"No need, have you contacted the Foreign Minister of the Chinese Empire? When will I be able to visit him? Duke Pacan waved his hand. Along the way, the changes in China surprised Duke Pacan and felt great pressure. He also came to China more than ten years ago. At that time, although Guangzhou was also very prosperous, it was far from being compared with now. At that time, there were still many beggars on the streets, but now, those beggars are gone. In addition, the mental outlook of those Chinese people is completely different from before, as if they have been greatly improved after not dragging the pig's tail behind their heads.

"Your Excellency, I have already contacted Lin Zihao, Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Chinese Empire, and tomorrow at three o'clock in the afternoon, in the garden of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Chinese Empire, it will be the time for Lin Zihao to disturb for afternoon tea." Bassoon said.

"Very good, I know, you go down first, I want to take a break, and call me when you eat!" Pacan nodded. It is undoubtedly very good to choose to meet Lin Zihao when he has afternoon tea. At that time, the two sides will be able to better draw together the relationship. This is of great help to the success and affinity of the Chinese Empire.

In the afternoon of the next day, Duke Pacan and Bassoon took the carriage of the legation to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Chinese Empire. After revealing their identities, the two were taken to a small garden by officials of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. There, they met Lin Zihao. At this moment, Lin Zihao is drinking afternoon tea in the garden, and for him who is busy with work, it is already a good rest to be able to enjoy an afternoon tea in the afternoon. No, many times, even the time for afternoon tea has to be used to meet guests, which shows how busy he is.

Lin Zihao was also a little puzzled, Duke Pakang, an important minister of Thailand, rushed to visit him, did this have any purpose? Could it be that those guys in the military clamored for the destruction of Thailand, and these Thais knew about it, so they rushed to beg for mercy.

"I've seen Lord Lin!" Both the Duke of Pakang and the Thai Minister to China, Bassoon, are fluent in Chinese. There are a lot of Chinese in Thailand, and with China's influence on neighboring countries, many people in Thailand, especially those in the upper class, can speak Chinese.

"Your Excellency the Duke, Your Excellency the Minister, please take a seat!" Lin Zihao said.

"Lord Lin, this is a small gift prepared for you by His Majesty the King of our country, please accept it." After taking his seat, Duke Pacan presented a greeting gift.

Lin Zihao opened it and saw that it was filled with the best bird's nest, which is a Thai specialty.

"Your Excellency the Duke is so gracious, thank you on my behalf, your king." Lin Zihao said with a smile.

"Lord Lin, this is just a small gift." Seeing that Lin Zihao was very satisfied with the gifts they gave, Duke Pakang finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Lord Duke, the purpose of your visit to Guangzhou this time?" Lin Zihao asked straight to the point.

"Lord Lin, Her Royal Highness the Sixteenth Princess of my country, admires His Majesty the Emperor very much. His Majesty the King of our country also agreed, hoping that our two countries could form a good relationship between Qin and Jin. Duke Pacan said. (To be continued......)
