Make France Great Again

Chapter 1028: Question from Prince Albert



Last URL: October 12, 1858.

At the kind invitation of Jerome Bonaparte, Prince Albert, Queen Victoria, and the British Secretary of the Navy set off from London to Normandy by warship, and then took a train from Normandy to Paris.

When the train of Prince Albert and Victoria stopped at the Paris train station, Jerome Bonaparte and Augusta, who had already been waiting at the train station for a long time, rushed to the train to greet them.

Prince Albert and Queen Victoria walked down the train stairs side by side. Jerome Bonaparte stretched out his hand and said to Prince Albert with a smile on his face, "Welcome to Paris again! Albert!"

Albert also stretched out his hand to shake Jerome Bonaparte\'s hand, but instead of smiling like Jerome Bonaparte, he said indifferently, " thanks!"

Embarrassment appeared on Jerome Bonaparte\'s face. He understood that Prince Albert was expressing his dissatisfaction with Jerome Bonaparte in silent words.

Queen Victoria, standing beside Prince Albert, was not as indifferent as Prince Albert when facing Queen Augusta\'s embrace, but embraced Queen Augusta with enthusiasm. Together.

Then, Jerome Bonaparte and Albert walked towards the outside of the train.

Queen Victoria and Queen Augusta fluently opened the topic that women often talk about. They walked towards the outside of the train station while smiling

Prince Albert also chatted with Jerome Bonaparte after giving Jerome Bonaparte a brief "offensive".

The two sides walked and chatted until they reached the side of the carriage. Jerome Bonaparte invited Victoria and his wife to enter the first carriage, while he and Queen Augusta sat in the second carriage.

After the couple of Jerome Bonaparte and Victoria got on the carriage, they started heading towards the Palais du Inlery.

At this moment, the people of Paris have already known that Queen Victoria and his wife will arrive in Paris today, and they have already been organized by the Paris Police Department to go to the place where Jerome Bonaparte\'s frame must pass.

As soon as the carriage arrives, the Parisians on both sides will start to talk to the rhythm of the lurking Parisian plainclothes.

Soon, the carriage appeared in the sight of the Parisians, and the plainclothes lurking in the crowd began to shout "Long live the friendship between Britain and France!" "Long live Her Majesty Queen Victoria!"

After hearing the cheers of the plainclothes people, the surrounding Parisians also cheered "Long live the friendship between Britain and France" and "Long live Queen Victoria!"

Queen Victoria in the carriage couldn\'t help showing a happy smile on her face after listening to the shouts of the people of Paris. She turned her head and yelled at Albert, "Albert, listen to how the people of Paris welcome us what!"

Prince Albert, who was sitting in the carriage, still had the usual expression, and he said to Queen Victoria in a flat tone, "Victoria, the Parisians on both sides of the road are just Jerome Bonaparte finding actors temporarily!

All their shouts are nothing more than the script in advance. "

"Albert, how can you say that!" Queen Victoria pouted and said to Albert herself, "Aren\'t I worthy of the love of the French?"

Prince Albert realized that what he said just now was a bit inappropriate, and he hurriedly remedied it, "It\'s worth it! Of course it\'s worth it!"

"Then you still talk about the script!" Queen Victoria replied angrily to Queen Victoria.

"Victoria, you are indeed worthy of the love of the French!" Prince Albert explained slowly, "But if you listen to the shouts outside one after another, you will find that the connection between each shout is particularly smooth!

I really can\'t think of any country where citizens can achieve such coordination without organization! "

Prince Albert\'s explanation did not satisfy Queen Victoria. Queen Victoria said to Prince Albert, "I don\'t believe that no one can do it!"

Prince Albert was speechless for a moment. He knew that it would be better not to "argue" with Victoria under such circumstances.

In this case, Victoria will only choose to raise the bar.



The carriage arrived at the Duinleury Palace under the cheers of the French citizens (actually Thor) on both sides of the road.

Basilio, who was standing at the gate of the Duinillery Palace, saw the carriage parked at the gate, and ran to the front of the first carriage, opened the door and bowed to Prince Albert and Queen Victoria in the carriage. He bowed, "Her Majesty Queen Victoria and Her Majesty Albert, welcome to the Palace of Duinleury!"

Then Basilio ran to the second carriage again and opened the door of Jerome Bonaparte.

After Jerome Bonaparte and Augusta stepped out of the carriage, they walked slowly in front of Queen Victoria and Prince Albert, and immediately invited the Victoria couple to enter the Duinleury Palace.

Jerome Bonaparte and his wife and Victoria entered the hall of the Duinleury Palace on the steps, and then Queen Augusta kindly pulled Queen Victoria to Friedrich\'s room.

Only Jerome Bonaparte and Albert were left standing in place. After a while, Jerome Bonaparte asked Prince Albert, "Albert, how about we Find a quieter room for the two of you, and talk carefully!"

After a moment of silence, Prince Albert nodded and replied to Jerome Bonaparte, "Yes!"

"Come with me!" Jerome Bonaparte walked in front of him, and Prince Albert followed closely behind Jerome Bonaparte.

The two soon arrived at a drawing room in the Du Yinlei Palace, and the two who entered the living room sat on two chairs with backrests.

Jerome Bonaparte deliberately sat backwards, leaning his chest against the backrest and said to Prince Albert, "Albert... the problem of Savoyon and Nice, we admit that we do have some problems!"

"Is it just some problems?" Prince Albert said to Jerome Bonaparte fiercely, "The French Empire\'s annexation of Savoyon and Nice is simply trampling on the treaty signed in 1815!

If every country were like yours, then the whole of Europe would be plunged into massive turmoil at once. "

"Albert!" Jerome Bonaparte frowned slightly, and said dissatisfiedly, "The French Empire did not do very well on the issue of Savoy, but if you want to say that I blatantly trampled on the 1815 Treaty, that is really too high for me.

The time when the 1815 treaty was first trampled on was in 1830.

I remember that in 1815, there was no Kingdom of Belgium in Europe.

Today, there are not only the Kingdom of Belgium, but also the Kingdom of Poland in the whole of Europe, and the Principality of Finland has returned to the hands of the Kingdom of Sweden... Isn\'t this a violation of the 1815 treaty?

Is it also the Treaty of 1815 that restricts the actions of the Russian Empire in the Black Sea and divides the Russian Empire?

Why can\'t other actions be regarded as trampling on 1815, and France\'s annexation of Savoy becomes a trampling on the treaty! "

Jerome Bonaparte\'s repeated rhetorical questions made Prince Albert also have an embarrassed expression on his face. He also knew that using the 1815 Treaty as a shield was indeed too cheap, but he couldn\'t directly Tell Jerome Bonaparte that the reason why Britain targeted France was because the French Empire brought too much fear to Britain, so it imposed restrictions.

If you say this, isn\'t it increasing the ambitions of others and destroying your own prestige.

"The 1815 treaty I am talking about is not a static treaty, but a flexible and changeable condition under the premise of giving all countries a balance of power!" Prince Albert tried to patch up what he just said.

"Since you just talked about the balance of power among the countries, I don\'t think France has any intention of disrupting the balance of power so far!" Jerome Bonaparte spread his hands and said to Prince Albert, "The French Empire has been protecting the power of the major powers on the contrary." The balance of power between the two countries will not allow any country to achieve monopoly, and will not provoke wars between big powers and big powers!

Of course, it is inevitable to sacrifice the interests of some countries.

But, I think it\'s all worth it! "

"What did the Kingdom of Sardinia gain by sacrificing Savoy?" Prince Albert asked rhetorically.

"Peace!" Jerome Bonaparte said decisively to Prince Albert, "A hard-won peace!

If the Austrian Empire really wants to find out that the extreme ethnic forces in the Kingdom of Sardinia are connected with the Savoyon royal family, then the entire Austrian Empire will probably eradicate the Savoyon royal family!

By that time, even if France wants to protect the Kingdom of Sardinia, there will be no other way! "

"Sardinia sacrificed Savoy in exchange for a promise?" Prince Albert asked Jerome Bonaparte rhetorically. UU reading www.uukanshu.com

"Yes!" Jerome Bonaparte nodded and said to Prince Albert, "Albert, I think you should understand! Nothing in this world is free, and the protection of the French Empire is the same!

If Victor Immanuel II thinks that Franz Joseph cannot completely eliminate him, I think even my hype will not help!

On the contrary, if Victor Immanuel II thought that Franz Joseph was determined to destroy him, he would naturally keep himself at all costs.

The French Empire is also his best choice! Just like I called you and the British Lord of the Admiralty over to discuss the Mediterranean! "

Jerome Bonaparte paused for a moment and continued, "What\'s more, Savoy is only a part of the territory of the Kingdom of Sardinia. Losing this part of the territory, Savoy is still a member of the royal family of the Kingdom of Sardinia."
