After all, Franz Joseph still prefers to go out with his innocent and lively little cousin (Elizabeth). Only when he is with Elizabeth can Franz Joseph be able to break free from the dull court environment and experience a A new feeling he had never experienced before.

From Elizabeth, she saw the shadow of her once rebellious self... It was a time when the Queen Mother Sophie was unwilling to recall the dusty past.
The protagonist of the memory is her, and a close friend who has passed away for many years.
Sophie, who was afraid that Elizabeth would repeat the same mistakes, was obviously more inclined to know Helen, who was knowledgeable, bookful, easy, and ceremonial, as her daughter-in-law.
In this case, she can still remotely command the entire Habsburg political situation as the empress dowager.
However, would Franz Joseph really marry Helen as at ease as she thought?
...
Franz Joseph, who left the cabin, came to Elizabeth (Sissi) and Helen again, and apologized to them for today's halfway outing.
Then he kissed Helen and Elizabeth respectively and left.
Metternich, who was standing aside, noticed that Franz Joseph was very perfunctory when he kissed the back of Princess Helen's hand, as if he was doing a routine. When kissing Princess Elizabeth, the emperor seemed extra solemn, as if he was doing a very sacred thing.
Metternich, who was once a **** in Austria's love scene, realized instantly that Franz Joseph did not like Princess Helen of the Habsburg template, but Princess Elizabeth who was incompatible with the Habsburg style.
Then Metternich thought about the character flaws of her own student Franz Joseph and the attitude of the Queen Mother Sophie towards Elizabeth, and she couldn't help worrying about Franz Joseph's upcoming wedding.
"Mr. Metternich, let's go!" Franz Joseph said to Metternich in a kind but majestic tone.
"As ordered!" Prince Metternich, who had recovered his senses, hurriedly nodded.
Franz Joseph and Prince Metternich walked half a distance behind, and soon arrived at the place where the hussars were.
After seeing Franz Joseph's arrival, the Hussar Major and his soldiers hurriedly bowed their knees to Franz Joseph.
"Get up!" Franz Joseph raised his hand gently, and then asked where the carriage was.
The Hussar Major explained to Franz Joseph that the carriage returned to Vienna first because of the uncertain time of Franz Joseph and others' outing.
There were no extra carriages nearby, and Franz Joseph only dared to sit in Metternich's carriage and follow Metternich back to Vienna.
As for the main housekeeper of Schönbrunn Palace, Franz Joseph arranged here to take care of Queen Sophie and Princess Mary.
Prince Metternich and Franz Joseph got into the carriage, and the carriage quickly arrived at Schönbrunn Palace.
Franz Joseph, who returned to Schönbrunn Palace, gave an order to his adjutant as soon as he entered the door.
The order requires the Austrian Empire military represented by Count Hess (Austrian War Minister), and the Austrian Imperial Government represented by Count Bauer and Minister Ba (the Minister of the Interior, Count Bauer is completely external, and Bach is responsible for managing the interior of the Austrian Empire), Be sure to arrive at the Schönbrunn Palace Conference Hall before 7pm.
Once the order was given, dozens of hussars rode to deliver the letter.
Time passed quietly, and the sunset also climbed from the trunk to the branches, and then to the leaves.
Until the last ray of sunlight disappeared on the leaves, night fell and the cold wind began.
The cold wind in winter made a rustling sound, blowing mercilessly against the glass windows, making the glass windows sound like old gears not being oiled.
At this moment, the Schönbrunn Palace is brightly lit, and carriages drove into the Schönbrunn Palace from the darkness in the distance, and stopped in an open space in front of the Schönbrunn Palace.
The car door opened, and government officials and military leaders stepped down from the carriage. They gathered together in twos and threes, shook hands warmly, and asked about each other's current situation.
The people who entered the Schönbrunn Palace entered the conference hall in the Schönbrunn Palace under the leadership of the emperor's adjutant.
Under the crystal chandelier that lights the candle is a long square table. Franz Joseph, who is sitting at one end of the main entrance of the conference hall, is calling them here this time, and the first person sitting on his left is Prince Metternich. .
Everyone who arrived in the conference hall showed different expressions after seeing Metternich present.
Among them, Earl Bower, who was the Minister of Foreign Affairs, had the most expressive expressions, and he was also a little wary in addition to being surprised.
After all, it is not a good thing for Prince Metternich to participate in this meeting as an advisor.
If the trouble is not good, I am afraid there will be another big change in the cabinet.
"Everyone, please sit down!" Franz Joseph, who did not show any emotion on his face as a reference, stretched out his hand and invited everyone present to take a seat.
"Yes, Your Majesty!" Everyone present bowed and saluted Franz Joseph, and obeyed Franz Joseph's orders to sit down.
The government officials represented by Count Bauer consciously sat on the left of Franz Joseph, and the military represented by Minister Hess sat on the right of Franz Joseph.
It's just that the Earl of Bauer sat in the second position on the left, and Minister Hess sat in the first position.
The power of the foreign minister seems to be less than that of the war minister, and the target of the war minister is Metternich's adviser. Bauer is not clear whether this is an unintentional act of the emperor or a deliberate arrangement. a sense of urgency.
Could it be that His Majesty is already dissatisfied with me?
Count Bower, who was sitting in the armchair, asked secretly in his heart, and then he searched again for his diplomatic strategy during this period.
Count Bauer, who had repeatedly confirmed that he had not made any mistakes in his diplomacy, felt a little calmer in his heart.
Sitting in the center, Franz Joseph looked around with a blank expression, then turned to Prince Metternich and said lightly, "Prince Metternich, you can start!"
Start? What to start with?
Everyone present looked at Metternich blankly, until now they didn't understand what happened.
Prince Metternich, who was pushed into the air by Franz Joseph, immediately understood that this was Franz Joseph's "revenge" against him.
Ugh! His Majesty's methods are still too naive!
Prince Metternich sighed inwardly, and then reported the news of France to everyone present with a serious face.
"According to the information obtained by the Empire in the French Embassy, the French Empire has drawn up a plan to invite the Kingdom of Sardinia to participate in the war against the Russian Empire! Once the Kingdom of Sardinia and the French Empire fight side by side, it will inevitably cause damage to the borders of the Empire. A certain level of threat!"
As soon as these words came out, the faces of everyone present changed, and among them, Count Bauer's face was the most ugly.
It can be said that the invitation of the French Empire to Sardinia to participate in the war against Russia is itself a balance system for Count Bauer (he thinks he has learned the essence of Schwarzenberg and Prince Metternich, and he has not been able to satisfy Franz. Joseph idea) destruction.
"Provocation!" Minister Hess shouted, and then added: "This is a provocation by the French Empire against the Austrian Empire!"
"Secretary Hess, don't be so excited! Franz Joseph frowned and tapped the table lightly to remind him.
"Your Majesty!" Minister Hess had to lower his voice and responded to Franz Joseph: "The purpose of the French Empire is to drag us into the war against the Russian Empire! Once Austria declares war with the Russian Empire, the Russian Empire will definitely support it. The Slavic peoples in our country will fight! At that time, Poland will inevitably rise! The Apennine Peninsula will also be in turmoil! The Austrian Empire in the German region~www.novelhall.com~ and the lofty position of the entire international bear will fall from the clouds! The French Empire will replace the international status of the Austrian Empire."
"However, Minister Hess!" Franz Joseph folded his hands, leaned forward slightly and responded seriously to Hess: "If the empire does not declare war on the Russian Empire, we will also be threatened on the Apennine Peninsula."
"Your Majesty, please rest assured!" Minister Hess replied to Franz Joseph with oath: "The French Empire is just bluffing, and with their existing military strength, they can't support the possibility of two-front battles!"
After Franz Joseph heard Hess' assurance, his heart swayed again.
"Minister Hess, do you really know France?" At this moment, Prince Metternich's voice came from directly opposite Minister Hess.
"Of course!" Minister Hess replied to Prince Metternich with a hint of arrogance in his words: "I was once fortunate enough to be appointed by Emperor Franz (grandfather of Franz, the last emperor of the Holy Roman Empire, the first person of the Austrian Empire) The Emperor) was chosen to be the Austrian military attache in France, and he knows France very well!"
"So how many standing troops does the French Empire have?" Prince Metternich asked Minister Hess.
"426,000!"
"Wrong!" Prince Metternich retorted, and then added: "The total number of the French army now is about 600,000!"
As soon as Metternich's voice fell, the faces of the military representatives showed shock.
"Impossible!" Minister Hess shook his head and said firmly to Prince Metternich. Click to download this site APP, massive novels, free to read!
