"Come in," Aston said. Ma Ziqiang pushed open the door and came in, and saluted Aston. No matter what, the cooperation between the two was still very pleasant. Aston had many things left to Ma Ziqiang. Ma Ziqiang's report was submitted to Aston, and basically there was no one who did not agree, and they were generally supported.

"Sit, what happened outside?" Aston asked. Aston knew the uneasy atmosphere and the fact that Ma Ziqiang gathered people.

"Sir, this is the thing,..." Ma Ziqiang told everything, Aston's sweat came down, Patten was really crazy, London would definitely not have such an order, London is very clear about the strength of the umbrella, this is completely to make both sides fight to the death. Patten made a chess game that made both sides have no way out.

"Lin Sheng means that you can choose freely, but I don't recommend that you support Patten." Ma Ziqiang looked at Aston and said, "People have feelings. Aston is good for Ma Ziqiang, both parties know this very well.

"That madman, the genius is with him. However, Ma, I must report this matter to London. As for how London decides that we can't interfere, I guess Lin Sheng has already made efforts in London and let them talk to themselves. Let's not worry about it. It's really a certain level. Ma, don't make me suffer." Aston said with his eyes closed. There is no way. Some things must die even if they know they must die. Ma Ziqiang and him are people with no choice.

In front of Ma Ziqiang, Aston called the Minister of Home Affairs directly. The direct superior of the Governor of the Hong Kong Governor and the Chief of Police was the Minister of Home Affairs. After listening to Aston's report, the Minister of Home Affairs was completely sleepy. He went crazy. The Governor of the Hong Kong Governor was indeed crazy. After the phone was hung up, the Minister of Home Affairs directly called the Governor of the Hong Kong Governor. Unfortunately, the Secretary answered the call, and the Governor of the Hong Kong Governor did not answer the call, even if it was the Minister of the Interior, the Governor of the Hong Kong Governor did not answer the call.

The Minister of Housekeeping knew that Patten had made up his mind, so he picked up his coat and went out, and went directly to the Prime Minister's Office. This matter must be reported. First of all, the last colony of the British Empire was about to be lost. He knew very well the power of the umbrella. Since the Governor of the Hong Kong Army had broken up, the umbrella would never sit still and wait for death. Resistance was necessary.

When he arrived at the Prime Minister's Office, Byard had arrived. Mrs. Thatcher already knew everything. She frowned and said nothing, and glanced at the Minister of Interior, "This is the candidate for the Hong Kong Governor you chose, a waste." It can be seen how angry the iron-fisted female prime minister was already.

It was not long, and the other ministers of the cabinet came. Byard left the Prime Minister's office. He was not qualified to participate. However, when he left, he said, "Prime Minister, everyone, I will say one thing. Patten must have allies. The United States cannot support him, and Western countries cannot support him. Then the only one left is that person. I hope everyone will consider it clearly. If you are not careful, we will stand opposite Western society. I hope everyone can consider it clearly." Byard left after he finished speaking. He has been thinking about this matter. Who gave Patten the courage? The entire Southeast Asia can give him courage. The other people do not have the courage.

Mrs. Thatcher looked at the cabinet members. What Baird said just now was exactly what he was worried about. Once this really happened, the status of Britain would be very embarrassing. Many countries will start to guard against Britain. This is definitely not in the interests of the British Empire. So what should we do now?

"Gentlemen, what Baird said just now is exactly what I am worried about. You can consider it and tell me what we should do. This stupid governor is such a lunatic." Mrs. Thatcher really lacks any favors, which makes the London government too passive.

"Can you let the umbrella take a step back? As far as I know, the chairman of the umbrella is currently in Paris, France," said the Foreign Minister. He has a good news and knows some news faster than others.

"It's his life now. You think no one would have to bear it. The protective umbrella is not a good thing," said the Army Minister. He was very direct and was not a good bird, so it would be better to die together.

"Minister of the House, have you contacted the Governor of the Hong Kong government? Let him tell him that those people and equipment have been handed over, and there is still room for ease. Otherwise, this time the British Empire would be embarrassed in front of the world." The Foreign Minister spoke a little yin and yang, and the Minister of the House was red.

Although it was embarrassing that he didn't answer my phone call now, the Minister of Internal Affairs still told the truth. Now, no one could hide it. Others showed a look of contempt when they saw him. It was embarrassing that they couldn't even control their subordinates.

The heart of the Minister of the Interior was bleeding. If Patten had been able to return to London, the shame he suffered today would have been doubled for Patten to taste. This humiliation would never be forgotten in his life.

The discussion began to start, but there was no complete opinion. Mrs. Thatcher looked at these people and felt extremely troubled. She knocked on the table, "Gentlemen, what I need now is a constructive problem, not a useless suggestion, ok." Looking at Mrs. Thatcher's dark face, she didn't say anything.

After a long time, the Navy Minister spoke, but he had not spoken just now. "Prime Minister, we will return it to the Northern Mainland in a few years. The handover ceremony at that time will be a shame for us, Daemon. I have a suggestion, just sell the management rights for the next few years to the umbrella. At that time, let the umbrella be handed over to the Northern Mainland. A place we will give up sooner or later is not worth investing in."

When I heard this proposal, I began to remain silent. Returning the power of rule was a shame. This is something that all the top leaders of the British Empire would not do. Anyone who goes there will be despised and will be deeply remembered by history. In the future, they will be sinners of the British Empire. Now this proposal from the Minister of the Navy can completely solve this problem and solve the things in front of me. It is a very good proposal.

"No, at least the Northern Mainland will not accept this proposal. If the rule of law is to be sold in recent years, they will also pay for it. The sovereignty of the state in charge of power is probably not concessions," said the Air Force Minister calmly, and this matter was stopped.

The excitement of being raised was strangled to death at once, and everyone began to ponder. The Foreign Minister thought about it, "Can we appoint Lin Xiaotian, the Governor of Hong Kong, and let the Chief of Police escort Patten back, how about this?" This sentence made everyone's eyes lit up, and they all felt that this path was feasible.

"No, Lin Xiaotian, the chairman of the umbrella, is not a citizen of the British Empire, and he holds an American passport." The Minister of Interior said, and everyone began to ponder again. Anyway, there is only one purpose now, completely get rid of this burden.

"It is also OK to let the umbrella formulate its own Hong Kong people. Let's take a name. When it's almost time, we will throw out the agreement and let the umbrella fight with the Northern Mainland. We won't care." The Foreign Minister said, and many people began to nod. Hong Kong is too far from the British mainland. Britain is really out of reach. In addition, the country's national strength is now in short supply, so one shameful thing can be missing.

Mrs. Thatcher remembered that she had fallen in Tianjing, and a smile appeared on her face. Yes, it was impossible to bow her head in the British Empire. "In this way, the Foreign Minister contacted Lin Xiaotian, the chairman of the umbrella. The Interior Minister informed Hong Kong that Patten would control Patten first. After the negotiations with the umbrella were completed, let the police chief escort back to London in person. Hong Kong would give the umbrella a torture. Is there any objection?" Mrs. Thatcher looked around, and no one had any objections. She smiled. When everyone thought that the matter was about to pass, Mrs. Thatcher said again,

"Raise your hand if you agree with the opinion just now." After saying that, he raised his hand. The cabinet ministers all smiled bitterly. This woman was too smart. In this way, this matter was the decision of the entire cabinet, not the Prime Minister. No one can do so in the future. In this matter, Mrs. Thatcher's fault is worthy of being the Prime Minister. His head turned too fast.

After everyone came out of the Prime Minister's office, the Foreign Minister looked at Baird, "Bayard, come in with me" and said, turned around and left, Baird followed behind, knowing that this was the London government cabinet that had already made a decision.

Historically, the British government has really made this move, selling the rule of Hong Kong in the last few years. At that time, the rich people in Hong Kong, Macau, Taiwan, and other places, especially Hong Kong rich people, once formed a group to buy it, but they were denied by the Northern Mainland. At that time, the Northern Mainland said that if Britain did this, the Northern Mainland would immediately take back Hong Kong, exercise sovereignty, and do what they said, the troops immediately placed troops near Hong Kong, leaving the matter in the end in till July 1, 1997, when Hong Kong officially returned, who came when it returned, only Prince Charles, the royal family, had no other senior officials in London. In the eyes of the British, this was the same as Li Hongzhang signed the agreement during the Qing Dynasty. This would leave a terrifying reputation forever. No one would come if it was possible.

Now that he has such a freak like an umbrella, history twisted his waist a little, Lin Xiaotian would never have thought that the London government would decide the fate of Hong Kong in this way. It’s really not a pity for the colony to be a part of it.

Byard got on the bus with the Minister of Foreign Affairs, but the Minister of Foreign Affairs said nothing in the car. He returned to the office of the Minister of Foreign Affairs. The Minister of Foreign Affairs told Baird about the matter and asked Baird to contact Lin Xiaotian with the umbrella. The Minister of Foreign Affairs wanted to talk to Lin Xiaotian in person. Baird was a little confused. Is this a little too mysterious? Why can't you see through the matter? He didn't call directly, but looked at the Minister of Foreign Affairs and wanted an explanation.
