Chapter 25 Madam Diplomacy

() With Liu Fu's rudeness, Jacqueline, the beautiful president's wife, became a strong contrast. Although Jacqueline was born in the United States, and his father was just a small businessman, he often mingled with the upper class in the United States.

In society, he is no stranger to most etiquette, and when he arrived in Taiwan, he became friends with David’s wife Helena.

Friend, she also learned some social basics of European aristocrats from her. Coupled with Helena's intensive training before the trip, Jacqueline's aristocratic etiquette and attempts can basically cope with these occasions. Although Liu Fu also participated in Helena's

Na's training, but he basically didn't pay much attention to it. He only went there for one day and then used various things to excuse himself and stopped going.

Because Jacqueline can speak fluent English and French, and can also converse in German and Russian, coupled with her lively and lovely personality, she quickly got along with these aristocratic ladies. Moreover, Jacqueline was very good at clothing.

The uniqueness of the jewelry has become the focus of the ladies circle.

In order to attend the cocktail party that day, Jacqueline specially wore an improved cheongsam made of silk. The light green silk fabric had large dark patterns in the shape of flowers, paired with a pearl necklace and bunted hair, plus the unique characteristics of European women.

The concave and convex figure looks very tall and sexy. And the improvement of this

Two words, because this kind of cheongsam was cut out after Liu Fu's processing and design, and Liu Fu's processing was based on the habits of later generations, and the fabric of the cheongsam was made into relatively thin fine-spun silk, and

The neckline is high, there are large cutouts on the chest and back, the slit is raised, and the hem is lengthened to the top of the feet.

At the banquets of European aristocrats at that time, most women's clothing consisted of very tight tops and wide skirts. Such skirts had very high waistlines, high collars, exaggerated breasts and prominent hips, and needed to be matched.

Unique hats, gloves and folding fans

In order to emphasize the curves of the breasts and buttocks, women's tops at that time had many strips of cloth on the back. After putting them on, the servants would forcefully tighten the strips behind them, thus creating a thin waist, which made the breasts look very full.

, and the buttocks are very straight.

Jacqueline and Rosalia also wore this kind of skirts. Sometimes they needed Liu Fu's help to tie the cloth belt behind them. Every time, Liu Fu couldn't help but tighten it with her hands, and each time she was complained by the two women.

, and if the waist of this kind of skirt is not thin enough and the breasts and hips are not big enough, it will look baggy and unsightly.

In order to prevent the two women from suffering this kind of crime again, Liu Fu asked a tailor to make several kinds of clothes that were more comfortable and beautiful without suffering, according to the style of later generations. The result was affirmed by the two women, among which this kind of cheongsam

Bras and thongs are the most popular ones. This kind of cheongsam is more comfortable to wear than a tight skirt.

There are many more, and it embodies another kind of elegance, but because the fabric of the cheongsam is very thin, you cannot wear any clothes inside, otherwise the breasts will be printed with a breast shape, which is very unsightly, so wear a bra and a thong together.

It can not only cover up special parts, but also fix the shape of the chest, and is more comfortable.

Due to the oppression of tight clothes for a long time, these aristocratic ladies were very interested in novel clothing. However, due to environmental constraints, they could not study it carefully. Therefore, they invited Jacqueline to their homes one after another. In response to these warm invitations, Jacques

Lin couldn't agree on her own initiative because Liu Fu's itinerary was not very flexible. In London, Liu Fu just didn't plan to stay there.

In a week's time, it was time to set off and cross the Channel to France. In the end, Princess Mary came forward to solve this problem for Jacqueline. The Princess suggested that she herself hold a banquet at a manor in the suburbs of London the next day.

, and all the ladies and wives were invited to the banquet, and men were not invited to participate. Therefore, with the unanimous approval of everyone, Jacqueline was finally freed.

In the following days, Liu Fu was dragged by the prince to test his new toy, a small submarine, in the Thames River. Because he was afraid that something would go wrong when the prince went on the submarine for the first time, Liu Fu and a submarine operator from the Taiwan Navy specially accompanied him.

The prince entered the submarine and made a voyage on the bottom of the Thames River.

During this voyage, Taiwan's small submarine performed perfectly. Not only did it have no roaring machine sound, but because the portholes were very large, some aquatic creatures and many miscellaneous creatures on the bottom of the river could be clearly seen in the turbid Thames River.

So much so that Liu Fu jokingly suggested to the prince that their river should be cleaned up.

On the day when Liu Fu and his party bid farewell to the UK and planned to cross the Channel to continue their visit to France, in return for Liu Fu's gift, Prince George invited Liu Fu to board a torpedo boat that he had commanded when he was serving, and personally

Driving this torpedo boat of several hundred tons, accompanied by British Royal Navy destroyers and Taiwan visiting fleet, it set off from Dover and went directly to the northern French seaport of Calais.

France is an anomaly on the European continent, and it has been an anomaly for hundreds of years, but it still has the reputation of being the first land power in Europe. Because in 1793, the last French King Louis XVI was conquered by France after the French Revolution.

The First Republic was guillotined, so France has no orthodox royal bloodline since 1793.

Speaking of Louis XVI, the last emperor, it is a bit regretful. This last emperor of France is very similar to an emperor from the Ming Dynasty of China, that is, Zhu Youxiao, Emperor Jiazong of the Ming Dynasty. The only difference between the two emperors

Louis XVI was good at making locks, that is, his hardware skills were very high, while Jiazong of the Ming Dynasty was good at carpentry. Although Louis XVI was pushed to the guillotine and Jiazong of the Ming Dynasty accidentally took poison and died, both of them did not die well.

, it can be regarded as the same destination through different paths.

It is said that Louis XVI was very indecisive by nature and had no interest in dealing with political affairs, but he married the most prodigal daughter-in-law in Europe in history. His daughter-in-law was best at spending money. So, in this couple,

Under his leadership, France's finances were in trouble, palace ministers competed with each other for power, and social conflicts were very prominent.

The French king had recently personally improved the design of the guillotine at that time, changing the original square blade into a beveled blade that was more conducive to cutting. Who would have thought that in the end, he and his wife would be chopped off by his improved guillotine?

The head was removed.

At this time, the full name of France should be called the French Third Republic. It was a republican country. The top leader of the country was the president. His rights included appointing the prime minister, ministers and other senior officials. He also had the power to promulgate laws and dissolve parliament.

Commands the three armed forces. However, these powers must be counter-signed by the prime minister and ministers. Therefore, such a presidential status is only a symbol of national unity.

The person who is really responsible for specific affairs is the French Prime Minister. However, this time the French Prime Minister did not come to Calais to greet Liu Fu and his party. Instead, French Foreign Minister Aristide Briand came to receive him and accompanied Liu Fu and his party.

Head to Paris, the capital of France.

Paris, a famous European city, has a very long history. Long before France existed, it was a small fishing village by the Seine River, and the people living here were the "Parisians" of the ancient Gallic tribe. By 4 AD

In the 19th century, the Romans built a city here and named the city Paris in memory of the earliest owner of the place.

Before entering the city of Paris, you can see the Eiffel Tower from a distance. In order to welcome the French World Expo and commemorate the 100th anniversary of the French Revolution, bridge engineer Gustave Eiffel used 7,000 tons of steel and 2.59 million rivets.

It took more than 2 years to build this 320-meter-high hollow steel tower on the Champ de Mars in Paris. This outstanding building in the history of world architecture has become an important attraction and prominent symbol of Paris and even France.
