September 1, 1850.
Duke Richelieu was ordered to go to Clément to mourn Louis Philippe. Due to Ames being located in the coastal area of northwestern Germany, this convenient condition saved Duke Richelieu time on land travel.
At 9 a.m., a fast steamer equipped with a high-powered steam engine carried Duke Richelieu to Britain.
Under the action of the steam engine, the fast steamer no longer needed to accommodate the wind direction and force, traveling at high speed through the Northern Sea.
After a day and night's voyage, the steamer finally arrived in London on the afternoon of September 2.
After disembarking, Duke Richelieu did not head to Claymont Village immediately. Instead, he went to partake in gambling activities at the racetrack after leaving the London Dock, stopping only after losing all his current funds.
From this point of view, Duke Richelieu was not completely decadent; to some extent, he was even progressive.
