Looking at the back of Jerome Bonaparte leaving, Elizabeth fell into contemplation. She didn't know whether she should obey Jerome Bonaparte.

"Hey!" Elizabeth sighed for her unfortunate fate.

At this moment, Franz Joseph's voice reached Elizabeth's ear and said, "Elizabeth, what's wrong with you? Did something happen?"

Elizabeth moved when she heard the sound, turned around with a smirk and said, "It's nothing!"

"That's good!" Franz Joseph did not suspect him, and then asked in a low voice, "What did you talk about when you were with the Emperor of France just now?"

Looking at the fiancé in front of her who wanted to get to the bottom of it, Elizabeth unconsciously remembered what Jerome Bonaparte had said.

As the saying goes, if there is a son, there must be a mother. His fiance has such a strong desire to control, not to mention his mother. (Here is Elizabeth's subjective thoughts)

"I talked a lot with His Majesty Jerome Bonaparte, who told me how he and the Queen Augusta came together, and said that you were the youngest monarch he had ever seen! The Austrian Empire will definitely be stronger under your leadership!" Elizabeth lied to Franz Joseph with a sincere expression.

Franz Joseph, who had enough trust in Elizabeth, believed Elizabeth's words. He couldn't help showing a smile on his face. Then he took Elizabeth's hand and said to her, "Let's dance one last dance!"

Franz Joseph and Elisabeth start dancing in a new round of music.

And Jerome Bonaparte, who was standing on the edge of the dance floor, also had another man beside him at this moment. He was the ambassador of the Kingdom of Württemberg.

"Your Majesty, can I take up some of your time!" The Württemberg ambassador respectfully said to Jerome Bonaparte.

"Of course!" Jerome Bonaparte nodded, then left the ballroom with the ambassador of Württemberg once again, and went to the reception room of the Tuileries Palace to talk.

As soon as he was seated, the ambassador of Württemberg took out the gems in his pocket and placed them in front of Jerome Bonaparte.

"Mr. Ambassador, what do you mean?" Jerome Bonaparte asked half-jokingly: "Today is not a special holiday, why did you give me this?"

"Your Majesty, I didn't give this gem to you, and the Ambassador of Saxony asked me to hand it over to you!" The Ambassador of Württemberg responded to Jerome Bonaparte.

"Ambassador of Saxony?" Jerome Bonaparte was stunned for a few seconds, then pointed to the gem and asked, "Who did he give it for?"

"Your Majesty, this is a gift from Minister Nessel-Rodie! It is said to celebrate the birth of a child by Queen Augusta!" The ambassador of Württemberg answered Jerome Bonaparte meticulously. Then add a sentence.

"Empress Augusta has not yet approached the delivery period, so they started giving gifts!" Jerome Bonaparte said with a pun: "They are too impatient!"

"Your Majesty, this quietly proves the strength of the French Empire!" Ambassador Württemberg complimented.

"Then did you tell them what I think?" Jerome Bonaparte continued to ask.

The Ambassador of Württemberg nodded and responded to Jerome Bonaparte: "Your Majesty, I have informed the Ambassador of Saxony that you will not seek peace in the short term! The Ambassador of Saxony asked me to tell you, although the French Empire and the Russian Empire There is a war going on, but there is no hatred between the two countries!

Whenever Your Majesty wants peace, peace will naturally come. "

Jerome Bonaparte asked the ambassador of Württemberg with a look of surprise: "Did Nechelrodt really say that? Nicholas I, that old stubborn agreed to the unconditional peace talks?"

The Ambassador of Württemberg shook his head and responded to Jerome Bonaparte: "I don't know about this!"

Jerome Bonaparte, the ambassadors of Württemberg, and even the ambassadors of Saxony did not know that Nechelrodt's plan for peace talks was a secret trial behind Nicholas I's back.

However, this plan was instructed by Alexander II, Dolgorukov, and Orlov. It can be said that this was a peace negotiation that completely kept Nicholas I in the dark.

If they were lucky enough to negotiate successfully, they would jointly force the palace to ask Nicholas I to negotiate with him.

But Nescherroddie himself had no hope at all about the success of the first contact. His purpose was simply to open a gap for the communication between the French Empire and the Russian Empire, so that the two countries could think about When you want peace, you can immediately usher in peace.

"It is estimated that it was an action carried out by Nescher Rodie and the others with their backs to the tsar! If I were Nicholas I, I would definitely not conduct peace talks at this time!"

Although Jerome Bonaparte did not know the current political situation in Russia, he was still able to make certain inferences based on history.

After listening to Jerome Bonaparte's inference, the ambassador of Württemberg said with a shocked expression: "They are so courageous!"

"If there is Crown Prince Alexander behind Nessel-Rodie, then this behavior is not an arrogance!" Jerome Bonaparte replied calmly: "Prince Alexander himself is not like his father, but A devout Slavic Orthodox! His thinking is closer to Britain!"

The Ambassador of Württemberg stared at Jerome Bonaparte in a stunned manner. He suddenly realized why Jerome Bonaparte must insist on communicating with them in person.

Seeing the ambassador of Württemberg speaking in his heart, Jerome Bonaparte said again: "Mr. Ambassador, a qualified diplomat must not only be guided by the situation, but also be good at analysis! The character of the monarch is to a certain extent. It affects the direction of diplomacy, especially in a country with an absolute monarchy, this is especially true!"

"Your Majesty, you are a terrible fellow!" The Württemberg ambassador felt fortunate for his country to be able to embrace Jerome Bonaparte.

For a moment, he felt that he was not facing a person, but a ghost, the ghost of a cardinal.

"Can I take it as your compliment to me?" Jerome Bonaparte said with a happy smile on his face.

"Of course!" The Württemberg ambassador responded to Jerome Bonaparte without hesitation.

"Okay! I'll accept the gift for Augusta!" Jerome Bonaparte put the gem in his pocket, and jokingly urged the Württemberg ambassador to prepare the gift.

The ambassador of Württemberg also responded with a joking tone, Jerome Bonaparte, that his gift would not be delivered to the Tuileries until after the birth of the little prince/princess.

"I'm looking forward to your gift!" Jerome Bonaparte got up with a smile and said to the Württemberg ambassador, "It's getting late! Let's hurry back to the ballroom!"

"Yes! Your Majesty!" The Württemberg ambassador also got up and left the room with Jerome Bonaparte.

Jerome Bonaparte, who returned to the ballroom, danced a few more dances at the invitation of several ladies, and gradually the time came to 12 o'clock in the evening.

The ball ended at twelve o'clock, and Jerome Bonaparte, Franz Joseph and a group of German princes accepted the salute before the guests left.

After all the guests in the ballroom (except those invited to the Tuileries: Franz Joseph, Elizabeth, King William I of Württemberg, Prince Metternich) have left. Jerome Bonaparte called Mocar and ordered Mocar to bring Franz Joseph, Elizabeth and Prince Metternich to the prepared room.

"Your Majesty, Princess, Prince, please come with me!" Mokar said respectfully to Franz Joseph and others.

After Franz Joseph and the others left, William I said, "Joseph (full name Jerome Joseph Bonaparte)!"

"Father!" Jerome Bonaparte respectfully responded to the old man in front of him.

"What happened to you and Emperor Franz's fiancee Elizabeth?" William I asked Jerome Bonaparte in a bad tone.

As a king, William I knew too well what a man with power would do, and he was a little worried that Jerome Bonaparte would do something out of the ordinary.

If the French Empire and the Austrian Empire had a bad relationship because of one woman, it would be too bad!

"Father~www.novelhall.com~ You don't know me too well!" Jerome Bonaparte shook his head and responded to William I, "Am I the kind of person who has no taste?"

William I thought for a while. Indeed, his son-in-law seemed to be not very interested in Elizabeth's type.

"The reason why I am willing to talk to Princess Elizabeth is that by cultivating Princess Elizabeth's love for Paris, the alliance between the Austrian Empire and the French Empire will be more stable!" Jerome Bonaparte spread his hands and responded to William I. Then he used Augusta as a shield: "And your daughter is a little worried about Princess Elizabeth, so I made her stand up for her! The treatment of a princess with Bavaria and a princess with Paris is very different! "

"My daughter? Why did she help Elizabeth?" William I was a little puzzled.

"How do I know this!" Jerome Bonaparte shrugged and said helplessly: "Maybe this is the friendship between women! Forget it! Father, my brother-in-law has the result. Have you?"

William I glanced at Jerome Bonaparte and said angrily, "How can there be such a quick result, just wait!"

"Ah! How long will it take!" Jerome Bonaparte responded to William I with a bitter face.

"I'll ask again after I return to Württemberg! That's it!" William I responded to Jerome Bonaparte with disgust.
