Ah sorry i make this mistake because of the discussion of the Chapter 345: An American In London
Indeed, Franklin was giving his views on it, but Pitt was the one who told the King

Parts of the archduchy of Flanders, and parts of Spanish NavarreQuestion. How much territory has France actually gained in all their wars. Excluding Florida and a French king in Naples.
Damnit, so Scania is still under Swedish yoke... I had hoped that there would finally be a TL with a succesful Danish reconquest of Scania haha
Is that a planned TL or?Well, my book Chosen King may or may not include that
He wrote a book, which is what he's saying.Is that a planned TL or?
Field-trip in London for the governors.
have you given any thought of publishing some of your stories as short stories.Chapter 356: Soiree
September, 1772
“The King’s proposal is a sensible one.” James, Duke of Cambridge said as he read the letter that had come from Whitehall.
“It has certainly caused a stir amongst the governors, Your Royal Highness.” Benjamin Franklin said.
“In a good manner?” James asked, fully aware of how tense things had been before.
“Yes, they are very flattered to have been invited to London.” Franklin replied.
“Will it work?” James asked. He wanted an end to this deadlock as quickly as possible, he wanted to return home. He missed his wife and his children and his home. Being here for two years already was long enough.
“I think it will.” Franklin said. “The Governors are simple folk really, when all is boiled down. They want to feel important and they want to feel valued. I think by taking them to Whitehall and to Parliament, the King has made the right choice.”
“Agreed.” James said. “I just know that some of the governors will cause a fuss though.”
“Oh undoubtedly. Some of them are very strange fellows.” Franklin replied.
“But they cannot complain about the cost, after all, I am paying for it.” James said.
Franklin smiled. “A wise choice, Sire. They will view that as having earned some Royal favour.”
“Too right they should.” James groused. Being stuck in a room for hours on end with some of these men was enough to make any man go mad. But for James, he didn’t like so much of their formality and their prudishness. He wanted them to laugh and to lighten up. It seemed they did not understand such words here. Perhaps a visit to London would change that.
James was about to say something else, when there was a knock on the door. He called for whoever it was to enter. A servant entered, bowed and then said. “Your Royal Highness, a letter has come for you, from the Governors.”
“Hand it over.” James said, wondering what it could be.
The man walked over and placed the document into his hands, bowed and then left.
James opened the letter and laughed. He looked at Franklin and said. “They’ve agreed to it. The bastards finally agreed.”
