Make France Great Again

After Jérôme Bonaparte and his wife Maximilian arrived at the palace hall in the middle of Munich by carriage, the nobles waiting in the hall turned their solemn eyes on the two majesties who entered the hall.

At the same time, the band in the hall also began to play the national anthem of the French Empire, "Ode to the Expedition."

In the high-pitched music, Jerome Bonaparte shook hands with Maximilian II in the presence of the nobles in the hall, until after the "Ode to the Expedition stopped, Jerome Bonaparte and Maximilian II" Just let go.

Immediately afterwards, the band played the "Bavarian Psalm", and Jerome Bonaparte still maintained a solemn expression until the end of the song.

As the song ended, the band's servants, who were also in the palace, went elsewhere.

Maximilian II expressed some thoughts on the arrival of Gerome Bonaparte and his wife in Munich: that is, he and the Bavarian government very much welcome the arrival of Jerome Bonaparte and his wife... Although Jerome Bonaparte The Bavarian couple's stay in Munich was short, but it was enough to show that the French Empire and the Kingdom of Bavaria still maintained good-neighborly and friendly relations... He himself also hoped that the future Kingdom of Bavaria could cooperate more closely with the French Empire.

As soon as the voice of Maximilian II fell, Jerome Bonaparte was the first to applaud Maximilian II, and then the nobles who reacted also called Maximilian II's hometown.

After the applause was over, Maximilian II also invited Jerome Bonaparte to speak. Maximilian II thought that Jerome Bonaparte, like him, had already found someone to bring a pen. Who knew that Jerome Bonaparte was always an impromptu speech.

Jerome Bonaparte had to once again develop his ability to speak on the spot. He first talked about the history of the Kingdom of Bavaria and the French Empire. During the federal period, the Kingdom of Bavaria obtained great benefits through the marriage with the stepson of Emperor Napoleon, so Bavaria The kingdom's feelings for the French Empire have always been at a friendly stage, and then from the past to the present and the future. Jerome Bonaparte hopes that the French Empire and the Kingdom of Bavaria can join hands again to defend the peace of Europe.

After the speech, Jerome Bonaparte showed a sincere smile to everyone present.

Afterwards, Jerome Bonaparte and Maximilian II, surrounded by nobles in the hall, arrived at the main hall of the palace together. The banquet to welcome Jerome Bonaparte will be held in the main hall.

The period before the banquet starts is the "rest" time for everyone. During this time, everyone can do whatever they want, as long as this behavior does not violate the royal family.

The nobles gathered in twos and threes to chat with each other, and Jerome Bonaparte also came to a guest room with no one to talk with Maximilian II.

Maximilian II first tentatively asked Jerome Bonaparte's attitude towards the Austrian Empire in response to the current situation in Germany.

"Maximilians!" Jerome Bonaparte said to Maximilian II with a solemn expression: "If I tell you, the reason why I chose to hand over Poland and the Danube to Austria! It is to maintain the relationship between Germany and Germany. The balance of power, are you willing to believe it?"

"Jerome, Germany is out of balance now!" Maximilian II also replied, "The Austrian Empire is too powerful! The power balance between Prussia and the Austrian Empire has been seriously out of balance. We, the little states sandwiched between Prussia and Austria, have almost lost the space to turn around!"

"Haha!" Jerome Bonaparte couldn't help laughing, "You Bavaria is the most powerful country besides Prussia and Austria, neither Prussia or Austria needs to look at your face! If you both call yourself If it is a small state, how should states like Württemberg and Baden handle themselves!"

"The Kingdom of Württemberg has the support of you, France! They don't have to worry about being threatened by the Kingdom of Prussia and the Austrian Empire, and the Duchy of Baden is too small to be eligible to choose!

On the contrary, our kingdom of Bavaria is the easiest to be targeted! '" Maximilian II complained again to Jerome Bonaparte.

In fact, Maximilian's worry is not unreasonable. Generally speaking, before the conflict between the eldest and the second, the third is often knocked down first, and then the war begins.

Otherwise, the third child will be able to gain benefits in the middle.

However, the Prussian-Austrian War cannot be speculated according to common sense. During the Prussian-Austrian War, the second child, Prussia, chose to single out the boss and the entire German vassal state that opposed Prussia.

Even more astounding is that this arrogant behavior of Prussia not only won, but won beautifully.

Therefore, Jerome Bonaparte chose to strengthen the Austrian Empire to prevent it from being taken away by Prussia. In the eyes of Maximilian II, it became Jerome Bonaparte in order to unite with Austria. Will not hesitate to destroy the balance of the German region.

"Maximilians, you might as well explain! What are you going to tell us to do?" Jerome Bonaparte asked Maximilian II.

"I just want to remind France not to let the Austrian Empire dominate!" Maximilian II politely persuaded Jerome Bonaparte to consider weakening the Austrian Empire.

"You can rest assured!" Jerome Bonaparte assured Maximilian II: "Maintaining the independence of the German states, especially the South German states, is the obligation of the French Empire! We will never allow it Any country, under any banner, recklessly overrides the sovereignty of the state!"

"Even if it's the Austrian Empire?" Maximilian II asked rhetorically.

"Even if it's the Austrian Empire!" Jerome Bonaparte responded unswervingly, "If the Kingdom of Bavaria is not at ease, I can also sign a secret agreement with Bavaria!

As long as any country limited by the German region dares to violate the interests of the Kingdom of Bavaria on the issue of sovereignty, the French Empire will firmly support Bavaria!

When necessary, the French Empire is willing to forge an alliance with Bavaria to jointly safeguard the interests of the South German vassals!

We will fight for this! "

After hearing Jerome Bonaparte's declaration that he would fight for South Germany, Maximilian II finally had a little confidence in his heart.

At least judging from Jerome Bonaparte's position, he himself would never let Prussia and Austria unify them.

Of course, there is no such thing as a free lunch in the world. Maximilian II knew that if he wanted Jerome Bonaparte to fulfill his promise, he would have to pay some price.

Without paying the price, Maximilian II would not have believed that Jerome Bonaparte would actually fulfill his promise.

"Jerome, I don't know what we can do for you!" Maximilian asked Jerome Bonaparte politely.

"We hope that your country will give us some support on the border issue in the future!" Jerome Bonaparte also responded to Maximilian II with restraint, and then added, "Of course, I am not Talk about the Lang issue in Bavaria, your country's border with us, but some historical issue!"

Maximilian II immediately understood that Jerome Bonaparte had taken a fancy to the Inland region from the Kingdom of Prussia.

Adhering to the deceased Daoist friend, Maximilian II naturally did not care about the land of the Kingdom of Prussia. He immediately responded to Jerome Bonaparte and said, "As long as France has the ability to take it there, Bavaria will naturally also be willing. Give your Majesty some support!"

"Then we have reached a cooperation agreement!" Jerome Bonaparte responded with a smile and stretched out his hand to Maximilian II.

"Yes!

The two parties who have reached a cooperation once again shifted the topic to their direction. Jerome Bonaparte curiously asked Maximilian II, where is his son Ludwig now!

"I can take you to see him if you wish!" said Maximilian II to Jerome Bonaparte.

"Of course!" Jerome Bonaparte nodded and replied to Maximilian II.

Led by Maximilian II, Jerome Bonaparte arrived in the room of Ludwig Otto Friedrich Wilhelm.

Looking at the "little gentleman" sitting on the sofa reading poetry, a happy smile appeared on Maximilian II's face.

"Father!" Ludwig looked at his father in front of him and Jerome Bonaparte beside him. He put down the poetry collection in his hand and responded to Maximilian II politely, like a little adult Same.

"This is Jerome Bonaparte, the monarch of the French Empire!" Maximilian II hurriedly introduced his son.

"Your Majesty, please forgive my rudeness just now!" Ludwig said politely to Jerome Bonaparte again.

"It's nothing!" said Jerome Bonaparte with a smile, "but I should apologize for disturbing you!"

Ludwig smiled slightly, but did not speak.

"Maximilians, I really envy you for having a wise son!" Jerome Bonaparte praised Maximilian II: "If my son can be as good as him in the future, there is no mental disorder, I will I am very satisfied!"

"You are too modest! Your son must be an excellent monarch in the future!" Maximilian II also said flatteringly.
