"There is no greater love in the world than a mother's love!"

De Ruiz's words were like a key, opening the door to Minister Mira's thinking.

yes! There is no greater love in this world than a mother's love!

The easiest way to please Her Majesty the Queen is to please the unborn child in her belly. Just asking Her Majesty the Pope to send blessings to the Queen's unborn child will win over Queen Augusta and make her inclined to in the church.

Then influence the emperor through the Empress Augusta, thereby thwarting Cavour's conspiracy.

"Minister De Luiz, on behalf of the Papal State, I thank you for your help! May God always favor you!" Minister Mira thanked De Luiz.

"Your Excellency Minister, this is what I should do!" De Luis responded to Minister Mira with a slight expression on his face.

Then De Ruiz left the Paris church, and Minister Mira also left the church.



That night, a grand ball was held in the Louvre.

In addition to the Victoria couple, Jerome Bonaparte, Franz Joseph and his fiancée, German princes, envoys from various countries, generals of the Empire, and members of the Austrian Empire and the British Kingdom. group.

In short, a "little" ballroom is loaded with some of the most powerful forces from Central and Western Europe.

"On behalf of the French Empire, I welcome the visit of Queen Victoria and his wife... Although Britain and France have experienced ups and downs, misunderstandings in various countries, and also experienced wars, but that is a thing of the past, and now Britain and France are in the same trench , to fight for Europe from the shadow of the Russian Empire, to fight for the people of all countries to breathe freely in this land... I sincerely hope that more and more countries can join our ranks, for the sake of civilization and the future. The Russian Empire is fighting!" Jerome Bonaparte in the ballroom said to the guests present with impassioned words.

When Jerome Bonaparte's voice fell, the entire ballroom burst into warm applause.

Jerome Bonaparte, who was intoxicated by the applause for a moment, signaled with his hand that they could stop. After the applause died down, Jerome Bonaparte made an inviting gesture and gave the stage to Victoria. couple.

"Albert, come on!" Queen Victoria, who was not interested in government affairs and speeches, threw all her questions to Albert as usual.

In Queen Victoria's eyes, Prince Albert is her world, her everything.

Of course, it is precisely because of Victoria's unreserved love for Albert that Queen Victoria has no extra love to share with his children.

Queen Victoria's children felt nothing but indifference, even resentment, around Queen Victoria.



The topic has gone too far, Queen Victoria's "abdication to let the virtuous" made Prince Albert the focus of the ballroom, and people have turned their attention to Prince Albert.

"Actually, Victoria and I were a little surprised after receiving the invitation from Jerome Bonaparte! Because in our plan, our family should have gone to Scotland at this time..." Albert's voice was different from Jerome Bonaparte As impassioned as M. Bonaparte, he was like a trickling stream, slow and rhythmic, "But my children say to me, they want to go to Paris! See the beauty of Paris, browse the sights of Paris, By the way, have a look at the Emperor of France..."

When Prince Albert asked for these words, Jerome Bonaparte's face showed a stunned look, and after a while, the stunned disappeared, and a smile appeared on his face again.

"Because in the hearts of my children, France is a brother of the Kingdom of Great Britain, a partner who fought side by side! Our two army units fought alongside Sardinia and Ottoman in the Crimea with the most vicious Russian army , and achieved excellent results. The naval forces of our two countries fought in the Black Sea and the Baltic Sea to protect the fairness of Europe... I told my children that the world should not be a world of the weak, it should be a world of peace A world of development, a world of European synergy... I sincerely hope that France and Britain will continue to join hands to fight for a fair Europe in the future!"

As soon as Albert finished speaking, Jerome Bonaparte immediately began to applaud.

Others in the ballroom also reacted, and thunderous applause sounded in the ballroom.

After a while, in the solemn announcement of Jerome Bonaparte, the ball in the Louvre officially began.

Albert, the protagonist of the ball, danced several dances with Queen Victoria in the elegant music.

Until the arrival of Franz Joseph, Prince Albert let go of Victoria's hand and looked at Prince Metternich, the advisor of the Austrian Empire, with a smile: "Prince Metternich, what's the matter with you?"

"Prince Albert, I don't know if you are willing to condescend..." Metternich asked Albert if he would like to find a secluded place to discuss something.

"Of course!" Prince Albert immediately nodded to Metternich, then walked down the dance floor with Queen Victoria and Prince Metternich to a slightly secluded place where Franz Joseph also stood There.

Prince Metternich euphemistically told Prince Albert that the Austrian Empire hoped to obtain a loan from the Kingdom of Great Britain.

"If the Austrian Empire itself satisfies the conditions, of course Britain is willing to provide a considerable loan to the Austrian Empire!" Prince Albert politely refused Prince Metternich's request, and told Prince Metternich that he did not want to be in the ballroom Discuss political issues.

Seeing that Prince Albert was not in the mood to continue the discussion, Prince Metternich had to accuse Albert.

"If the Austrian Empire is willing to make some concessions on the Danube issue..." Prince Albert euphemistically persuaded the Austrian Empire to give up the Danube Principality's appeal.

After all, the Danube was not of the same nature in the hands of the Ottoman Empire and the Austrian Empire at all.

In the former case, the Kingdom of Britain could still use its national strength to crush the Ottoman Empire to submit.

In the latter case, the Kingdom of Great Britain could only discuss the issue of navigation with them calmly.

After all, the Austrian Empire is also regarded as the first-class power in Europe.

When the British Kingdom treats second-rate (Sardinian) and third-rate (Two Silesia) powers, it can conduct diplomacy regardless of their feelings.

With regard to its attitude towards the first-class powers, the Kingdom of Great Britain has always adhered to the principle that things that can be solved within the framework will never be solved outside the framework; problems that can be solved through diplomacy will never be solved through war.

The difficulty of defeating a first-class power is really too great. During the Napoleonic Wars, the state of the British crown's high debt has been vividly remembered by some people.

Because of this, the French Empire endorsed the Austrian Empire and handed over the Duchy of the Danube to the Austrian Empire without the consent of the Ottoman Empire's high gate government (at that time, most of the Ottoman Empire's high gates were pro-British, except for the foreign ministers.) At that time, the British Kingdom did not instigate the opposition of the High Gate government.

Instead, he worked with France to suppress the high-door government and made them have to agree.

In the face of Albert's conditions, Prince Metternich would naturally not agree. The benefits of the Danube River navigation to the Austrian Empire are long-term, and the loan needs to be repaid!

[PS: From this point of view, although the Lend-Lease Act implemented by the United States of America in World War II to the Soviet Union did not come in handy at a critical moment (after the Stalingrad War, a large number of aids were guessed), but at least There is no need for Soviet repayment, and it is more conscience than Britain. 】

"Prince Albert, please forgive me for not being able to agree to your conditions!" Prince Metternich still maintained a humble attitude and Albert responded.

"Then there's nothing I can do! After all, Mr. Metternich, you know it! Britain is different from France and Austria, and the rights of the royal family are restricted by the cabinet!" Prince Albert casually found a reason to prevaricate Prince Metternich.

Immediately, Prince Metternich, Franz Joseph and Prince Albert and Queen Victoria parted.

Franz Joseph, who never said a word, asked Prince Metternich in a low voice, "Mr. Metternich, what's the point of doing this! If I were Albert, I'm afraid I wouldn't be here either. Agree on every occasion!"

"Your Majesty, the reason why I talk about investment with Prince Albert in the ballroom is not just for investment!" Prince Metternich responded to Franz Joseph with a winning expression on his face.

"What's that for?" Franz Joseph asked curiously.

"Your Majesty, after the banquet is over, I'm telling you! What you have to do now is to go to the presence of His Majesty Jerome Bonaparte..." Prince Metternich once again instructed Franz Joseph. UU reading www.uukanshu.com

Franz Joseph and Prince Metternich came to Jerome Bonaparte. Prince Metternich repeated what he said to Prince Albert to Jerome Bonaparte again.

"Mr. Metternich, I don't want to talk about it at this time! If you really want to talk about it, we can talk about it tomorrow or the day after!" Jerome Bonaparte replied to Prince Metternich: "This question is not something that can be decided by simply talking about it here!"

"Yes! Your Majesty!" Prince Metternich said goodbye to Jerome Bonaparte.

Jerome Bonaparte, who watched Prince Metternich leave, couldn't help but muttered: "What is going on with Metternich? Why are you talking about this issue at this time?"

After a while, when the ambassador of the Kingdom of Prussia appeared in front of Jerome Bonaparte and slapped sideways, and what the **** Prince Metternich talked about with him, Jerome Bonaparte realized that Prince Metternich's routine.

"nothing!"
