Make France Great Again

A smile appeared on the face of the French ambassador who received an affirmative answer from Franz Joseph. He hurriedly stood up and bowed to Franz Joseph. Franz Joseph raised his hand gently.

Afterwards, Franz Joseph chatted with the French ambassador about the Kingdom of Britain.

Franz Joseph told the French ambassador that just now the Kingdom of Britain issued an order to the Austrian Empire, requesting the Austrian Empire to quell this war without gunpowder as soon as possible, otherwise, the Kingdom of Britain will take necessary coercive measures against the Austrian Empire ( The latter sentence was added by Franz Joseph himself).

After listening to Franz Joseph's words, the French ambassador solemnly assured Franz Joseph, "Your Majesty told me before I became an ambassador!

The relationship between the French Empire and the Austrian Empire is one that prospers and one that suffers!

If the Kingdom of Britain really wants to take action against the Austrian Empire, then the French Empire will stand firmly on the side of the Austrian Empire and jointly boycott the Kingdom of Britain. "

Although the French ambassador's remarks were not formal and public diplomatic rhetoric, it undoubtedly brought a little more comfort to Franz Joseph's heart.

No matter how bad Franz Joseph's internal affairs will be in the future, just his strategy of tying the French Empire to the Austrian Empire's chariot (although the implementer of this strategy is Jerome Bonaparte) It is enough for Franz Joseph to leave a relatively good reputation in later generations.

"Thank you very much! Mr. Ambassador, you are able to speak out!" Franz Joseph looked at the French ambassador gratefully, "I firmly believe that the Austrian Empire and the French Empire can go further in the future!"

After understanding the attitude of the French Empire towards the Austrian Empire as always, Franz Joseph tactfully issued an expulsion order to the French ambassador.

The French ambassador also got up to bid farewell to Franz Joseph with a sense of comprehension. After being "reluctantly" sent off by Franz Joseph, the French ambassador left Franz Joseph's study, and Franz Joseph I sat quietly in the study, putting my hands on my knees and meditating.

After a while, Franz Joseph's room was opened again.

Franz Joseph frowned when he heard the movement at the door, and was about to raise his head to reprimand the disrespectful person who broke in without knocking, but found that the person who broke into the room was none other than his wife Yin Lisabeth (Princess Sissi).

Franz Joseph's originally sharp eyes gradually became softer. He hurriedly got up and ran to Princess Sissi in front of him, and softly blamed, "Didn't I tell you not to run around during pregnancy! Why did you Disobedient!"

At this moment, Princess Sissi has already been pregnant for 6 months, and her originally slender waistline has become several times larger than before due to pregnancy, and her belly has become a "beer belly" visible to the naked eye.

"I don't!" Yin Lisabai shook her head and said coquettishly, "Sitting there all day, talking with a group of lifeless ladies, it's so depressing!

Franz, why don't you take me out for a walk! "

After all, Princess Sissi looked at Franz Joseph with pitiful eyes, and kept shaking Franz Joseph's arm with both hands.

Looking at the lovely and pitiful wife in front of him, Franz Joseph couldn't help but want to promise her.

When Franz Joseph was about to agree, he subconsciously thought of his mother.

Franz Joseph understood that his mother Sophie would definitely not agree to Princess Sissi's request to go out during her pregnancy.

If it is not good, it will cause disputes between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.

At that time, with his mother on one side and his wife on the other, Franz Joseph didn't know what to do.

So, Franz Joseph touched Princess Sissi's head gently with his hand, and said to Franz Joseph affectionately, "Sissi is obedient! After you give birth to a crown prince, what do you want to do?" Just play!

Now, you can stay in Schönbrunn Palace with peace of mind! "

After listening to Franz Joseph's words, Princess Sissi immediately showed loss and frustration visible to the naked eye, like a wounded cub.

"I see! I won't bother you anymore!" Princess Sissy said dryly, then turned and left.

Looking at Princess Sissi's lonely back, Franz Joseph felt compassion again, and Franz Joseph stopped Princess Sissi, "Sissi, wait a minute!"

Princess Sissi turned her head to look at Franz Joseph, her eyes full of disappointment, "Your Majesty, what else do you need!"

Franz Joseph took a deep breath and responded to Princess Sissi, "Sissi, just now the Emperor Jerome Bonaparte of the French Empire invited me to Milan... I think you, as the queen of the empire, also have rights and obligations Come with me!"

Princess Sissi's expression immediately changed from disappointment to hope, "Is it really possible?"

"Yes!" Franz Joseph nodded to Princess Sissi.

"By the way, is Sister Augusta back? I haven't seen her for a long time!" Princess Sissi continued to ask Franz Joseph.

"I don't know about this!" Franz Joseph shrugged his shoulders and replied to Princess Sissi.

"I'd better ask myself!" Princess Sissy replied to Franz Joseph, and then she continued to ask, "By the way, can I take Sophia with me!"

Franz Joseph's expression froze. He himself was not sure about letting his mother let Princess Sissi go, let alone Sofia.

"No!" Franz Joseph shook his head and replied to Princess Sissi.

"Alright then!" Princess Sissy said with a little disappointment, she really wanted to bring her daughter with her.

After Princess Sissi left Franz Joseph's study, Franz Joseph immediately ordered the butler to summon Minister of the Interior Bach and Minister of Foreign Affairs Bauer.

"Your Majesty, what about the rest?" the steward asked Franz Joseph cautiously.

"What's the rest?" Franz Joseph was stunned, and then asked the housekeeper.

"Your Majesty, those are the people you were going to meet!" The butler explained to Franz Joseph.

Franz Joseph responded indifferently, "If there is still time, I will interview them one by one. If not, I will choose to interview them tomorrow or the day after tomorrow!"

"Understood!" The butler replied to Franz Joseph.

About half an hour later, Minister of the Interior Bach and Minister of Foreign Affairs Bauer appeared in Franz Joseph's office.

Franz Joseph first asked Bach about the tax collection of the Ministry of the Interior (this should have been managed by the Ministry of Finance, but the bureaucratic reforms implemented by the Ministry of the Interior Bach in the Kingdom of Hungary allowed officials from the Ministry of the Interior to replace officials from the Ministry of Finance. Nationalities within the kingdom directly collect taxes, so Bach has more say in financial issues than the Minister of Finance.)

Bach told Franz Joseph that due to the recent economic crisis in the Austrian Empire, the Ministry of the Interior collected not a lot of money.

"If I want to start a war, can the Ministry of the Interior meet the needs of the war!" Franz Joseph asked Bach.

"Your Majesty, it depends on who the target of the war is!" Bach asked Franz Joseph, "If it's just a war with small and medium-sized countries, then the Austrian Empire is enough to support it.

If it is fighting against a country of the same level as ours, it will be difficult for the Austrian Empire to support it.

At that time, I'm afraid we can only choose other methods to make up for the losses caused by the battle! "

"I see!" Franz Joseph nodded to Bach.

Immediately afterwards, Bach responded to Franz Joseph, "Your Majesty, please forgive me for asking! When will our troops in the border area be able to withdraw!"

Since the start of the confrontation between the Austrian Empire and the Kingdom of Sardinia, the daily expenditure of the army has been around 700,000 to 1 million florens (the currency of the Austrian Empire). If it continues for another month, Bach has reason to doubt that this year’s financial It's going to be a deficit again.

"Don't worry! We will be able to withdraw in a short time!" Franz Joseph assured Bach, and then turned his gaze to Earl Bauer, "Jerome Bonaparte invited me to Milan to discuss the issue of the Apennine Peninsula. ,how do you feel?"

Count Bauer replied to Franz Joseph without hesitation, "Your Majesty, I think we should draw a successful conclusion with His Majesty Jerome Bonaparte on the issue of the Apennine Peninsula as soon as possible.

We cannot be dragged down by the problems of the Apennines! "

After hearing this, Franz Joseph nodded and replied to Earl Bauer, "I think so too! When do you think it would be better for us to set off!"

"Your Majesty, I think the sooner the better!" Earl Bauer then replied to Franz Joseph~www.readwn.com~ At this moment, Earl Bauer didn't know that he was about to be reassured by Franz Joseph. An almost impossible errand.

"That's good! I'll let you handle my mother's work for me!" Franz Joseph said to Earl Bauer.

Earl Bauer was stunned for a while, with a hint of confusion in his eyes.

Immediately afterwards, Franz Joseph told Bauer that Jerome Bonaparte hoped to meet Franz Joseph and Elizabeth Yin in the telegram, so Elizabeth Yin must also follow Franz Joseph Let's go together.

Since Earl Bauer advocated starting as soon as possible, the task of persuading Grand Princess Sophie to let go was given to Earl Bauer.

"Your Majesty, Her Majesty the Queen is still pregnant!"

"There is still some time before labor, don't worry too much!"
