The old and young people sitting on the train were none other than Prince Metternich, who had dominated Europe for more than 30 years, and his son Richard Metternich.
Why did he appear here, who was supposed to be an advisor by Emperor Franz Joseph's side, and Richard Metternich stayed together, which involved the diplomatic differences of the Austrian Empire.
After Felix Schwarzenberg suffered a sustainable stroke, the foreign minister of the Austrian Empire changed from Felix Schwarzenberg to Count Bauer, and Austrian foreign policy changed accordingly.
During Felix Schwarzenberg's time, the foreign policy of the Austrian Empire was based on a strategy based on the premise of ensuring the security of the Austrian Empire and weakening Prussia. The two countries, France and Russia, were also drawn in and suppressed at the same time. balance of European power.
This kind of diplomatic strategy undoubtedly requires superb diplomacy. Throughout the entire Austrian diplomatic field, the only person who can control and grasp the proportions is Felix Schwarzenberg, and only Prince Metternich is left.
However, after Felix Schwarzenberg suffered a stroke, Metternich, who should have succeeded Schwarzenberg as the foreign minister, was still only able to participate in the diplomacy of the empire in the form of an advisor.
The most fundamental reason is that Prince Metternich's political foundation has been completely destroyed in the storm in 1848. Now he has nothing but the treatment that some old ministers should have. It can be said which faction in the political arena of the Austrian Empire is today. Neither wants to see Metternich make a comeback.
The era that belonged to Metternich in their opinion had passed with the European revolution.
If it wasn't for Felix Schwarzenberg's "protection" when he suffered a stroke, Metternich would not be able to participate in any political activity at all.
Even Felix Schwarzenberg was able to protect Metternich, and Metternich only got a power of advice and implementation, and the specific policy-making power was not controlled by Metternich.
Of course, it is also not controlled by Count Bauer. In Metternich's view, Count Bauer is the emperor's answer, and the emperor's diplomatic strategy is always swaying.
This swaying diplomatic thinking made the Austrian Empire lose the opportunity to mediate.
After the Ottoman negotiations broke down and the news of the suspected mobilization of France came, Franz Joseph woke up and asked Metternich's strategy.
When the East and West camps were about to take shape, Metternich could only go to Paris to test the attitude of the French emperor, and then make the next step.
To avoid overly stimulating the Russian Empire, the Austrian Empire did not add Metternich to the list of mediators dispatched to France.
It was only when the train was about to depart that Prince Metternich entered the train to Lombardy.
On June 13, Metternich, Richard Metternich and others changed to Sardinian train to Nice.
Prince Metternich, who entered the territory of Sardinia, has been frowning after hearing the topics discussed by the guests at the Sardinian railway station.
Sitting in the carriage, Richard Metternich asked in a low voice why Metternich was worried.
"I seem to have done something wrong!" Prince Metternich sighed and said to Richard Metternich beside him.
"What?" Richard Metternich asked curiously.
"At the time, I paid too much attention to France, so much that I forgot about the Apennine region! I should have thought that the Apennine region would be the same as the original Germany..." Prince Metternich's "same as Germany" refers to the surging Italian nationalist movement .
In order to limit the possible revolutionary problems in France, Metternich not only returned all the territory of the Sardinian dynasty to Sardinia, but also handed over the Republic of Genoa to Sardinia, thus making Sardinia a country with a middle power.
With the rise of Italian nationalism, the Sardinian kingdom is getting more and more restless!
Sardinia, who had been a vassal of Austria, immediately joined France.
Not only Sardinia, but even the Kingdom of the Two Sicilies is moving closer to France, not to mention the Papal State.
Today, the entire Apennine peninsula is shrouded in the shadow of France and Austria.
As long as either of the two giant beasts attacked the other, the entire Apennine would probably be wiped out.
Of course, there is also a possibility that a certain state in Italy will use the power of one of the giant beasts to unify the entire Apennine Peninsula.
In that case, the situation for the Austrian Empire would be even more difficult.
"Father, it's not your fault! At that time, no one would have thought of what would happen decades later!" Richard Metternich comforted his father, Prince Metternich.
"We go to France not only to undertake the task of mediation, but also to make peace with France!" Prince Metternich said worriedly to Richard Metternich: "If Austria and France fight, Austria is very likely to Lose the Lombardy and Venice that we have worked so hard to gain! At that time, the fate of the entire Austrian Empire will be thrown into chaos."
"Yes!" Although Richard Metternich didn't understand what Metternich was worried about, it didn't prevent him from obeying his father's orders.
Richard Metternich himself was far less accomplished in diplomacy than his father.
On the evening of June 14, the train arrived in Nice. Richard Metternich, Metternich and several members of the mission crossed the border in a carriage to France.
Afterwards, Richard Metternich and others transferred to the carriage and arrived at Lyon in the southern transit center on the afternoon of the 15th.
In Lyon, Prince Metternich made a new discovery. Many goods were unloaded in Lyon. The streets were full of patrolling National Guard troops, and pedestrians hurriedly walked on the streets.
In Metternich's eyes, the whole of Lyon has become a huge military camp.
When Metternich, who left Lyon by train, looked out of the carriage, he subconsciously saw the soldiers at the Lyon military train station and the wagons full of supplies parked in the military train station.
This time, Prince Metternich is even less optimistic about the prospect of mediation.
How could France in such a situation be willing to listen to the demands of the Austrian Empire for mediation.
Now we can only take one step at a time!
On the afternoon of June 17, Richard Metternich and Metternich officially arrived in Paris.
The low-key father and son and the mission arrived in the Austrian Embassy in France quietly.
After seeing Prince Metternich, the Austrian ambassador showed a surprised expression, then held Prince Metternich's hand and said excitedly, "Your Excellency, how come you are here!"
"I came here under His Majesty's order! In order to adjust the relationship between the Russian Empire and the French Empire, how is the situation in the French Empire now?" Prince Metternich, who had just entered the embassy, turned to ask the Austrian ambassador about the recent trends in France.
The Austrian ambassador told Prince Metternich everything he had learned.
Combining what he saw at the Lyon train station and the description of the Austrian ambassador, Prince Metternich came to a bold conjecture: France is fully prepared for war!
"Your Excellency, I don't think the Empire can mediate the conflict between Russia and France! Maybe we should consider which side we are on!" The Austrian ambassador said to Metternich with a sad face: "If you don't think about it, I am afraid……"
"I know!" Jerome Bonaparte raised his hand to stop what the Austrian ambassador wanted to say next: "Tomorrow, I will meet De Ruiz!"
Just as Metternich and others were discussing the future of Austria, Jerome Bonaparte of the Tuileries Palace also received information from the National Intelligence Service.
The intelligence said that not only Richard Metternich, but also Prince Metternich was in the Austrian embassy.
"It seems that it is not Richard Metternich who came to mediate this time, but Prince Metternich!" Jerome Bonaparte shook his head and said to Marcel Yale next to him.
Marcel Yeruger did not speak, but quietly listened to Jerome Bonaparte's words.
"That's fine! I just want to see what kind of surprises the outstanding people of the previous era can bring me!" Jerome Bonaparte continued to talk to himself with a smile on the corner of his mouth.
Afterwards, he turned his head and waved to Marcel Yarug: "Okay! You've worked hard too!"
"Yes!" Marcel Yeruger left Jerome Bonaparte's study.
On June 18, when Richard Metternich and Prince Metternich went to visit De Ruiz at the residence of Foreign Minister De Ruiz, they were in the residence of De Ruiz. I saw someone who wasn't supposed to be here.
"Your Majesty!" Prince Metternich and Richard Metternich curtsy to Jerome Bonaparte.
"Mr. Metternich, Mr. Richard Metternich, please sit down!" Jerome Bonaparte invited Metternich and Richard Metternich to sit down.
When Metternich and his son were seated, Jerome Bonaparte went straight to the point: "Mr. Metternich, I know that your purpose is to mediate the contradiction between Russia and France! I am very grateful to the Austrian Empire for the peace of the European continent. Contribution ~www.novelhall.com~ but I can regret to tell you.
Your mediation efforts are destined to be futile. If the Russian Empire does not stop their aggressive ambitions for the Ottoman Empire, the French Empire will never stop the pace of war!
Together with the Kingdom of Britain, we will destroy the evil Russian Empire! "
Hearing Jerome Bonaparte's declaration of war, Metternich pulled his face, and he said coldly: "Your Majesty, you remind me of the man from decades ago who rejected my suggestion like this. !"
As soon as Metternich's voice fell, De Luiz's expression also changed.
Whoever was present did not know that the "that person" in Metternich's mouth was the original Emperor Napoleon.
The former Metternich advised Emperor Napoleon to end the war in a decent way, that is, to withdraw from the lands conquered by France in a way that France recognized the interests of other countries, in exchange for the rule of the Bonaparte family in France.
Emperor Napoleon at the time rejected his proposal and fought his way, eventually ending up on an island and perishing.
