Make France Great Again

Chapter 444 Prime Minister Palmerston

The newspaper movement quelled the attacks on the crown through the intervention of Palmerston and Russell. However, although the newspaper stopped using aggressive language full of hostility towards the royal family, it became increasingly fierce in opposing the hegemony of the Russian Empire and protecting the rights and interests of the Ottoman Empire.

The British people under the diode mentality have even reached the point where they will curse when they hear the name "Tsar" and they will definitely applaud when they hear the name "Sultan".

Even The Times, which once started the trend of the Ottoman Empire, was criticized by the rising star "Morning Advertising" with fierce nationalist language because it mentioned in a report that Christians in the Balkans were more willing to accept protection. Attacked, accused The Times of seriously "un-British" ideas, and claimed: The idea that Christians are willing to accept Russian protection only exists in the world of The Times... Christians are willing to accept the protection of whom only life Only Christians in the Ottoman Empire knew that the Times was fabricating it out of thin air.

As a well-established troll, after accepting the attack from "Morning Advertiser", The Times naturally would not be a coward and began to launch a counterattack against "Morning Advertiser".

Fortunately, there are a large number of exiled groups in the Kingdom of Britain who were persecuted by the Ottoman Empire, including Christians. The Times used their oral accounts as a model, polished them, and then reviewed the ethnic groups headed by the Morning Advertiser. Communist newspapers launched a counterattack.

After seeing "The Times" presenting facts and being reasonable, "Morning Advertising" immediately encouraged its subscribers to fight back. Fanatic nationalists gathered at the door of "The Times" home. They first angrily denounced "The Times" The Times, then called the exiles “traitors” and taught them how to love the Ottoman Empire.

If it were not for the arrival of the police, fanatical nationalists would have almost stormed into the home of The Times and carried out mind-injection attacks on Times reporters.

After that, the Times became much smarter and stopped reporting on anything about the Ottoman Empire for the next few days.

In such an environment, Aberdeen has suffered even more fierce public attacks.

Just when the Prime Minister of Aberdeen was worried about the Ottoman Empire, the summons from Buckingham Palace forced the Prime Minister of Aberdeen to put down the work at hand and go to Buckingham Palace.

When the Aberdeen Prime Minister's carriage arrived at the gate of Buckingham Palace, the lobster soldiers guarding Buckingham Palace quickly opened the gate. The carriage continued to drive to the main entrance of Buckingham Palace and stopped. The Aberdeen Prime Minister opened the door and got out of the car.

"Your Excellency Prime Minister, Her Majesty the Queen and the Prince have been waiting for you for a long time! Please come with me!" The person who greeted the Prime Minister of Aberdeen was still John Brown, the chief steward of the Hanover royal family. He half-bowed and extended his hand to pay respect to the Prime Minister of Aberdeen. replied.

"Yes!" Prime Minister Aberdeen nodded and followed John Brown to the presence of the prince and the queen.

"Your Majesty, Your Highness!" The Prime Minister of Aberdeen curtsied to Queen Victoria and Prince Albert respectively to show respect.

"Please sit down!" Prince Albert stretched out his hand and said to the Prime Minister of Aberdeen.

"Thank you, Your Highness!" The Prime Minister of Aberdeen took steady steps and sat on the red cushion seat opposite Albert and Victoria.

Prince Albert first glanced at the Prime Minister of Aberdeen. From the haggard expression of the Prime Minister of Aberdeen and the melancholy hidden in his eyes, Albert immediately understood that Aberdeen was now disturbed by outside public opinion and might not even be able to survive. I can't even get enough rest.

"Your Majesty, what are your orders from me?" Before Albert could ask, Prime Minister Aberdeen braced himself and asked Queen Victoria.

Queen Victoria glanced at Albert beside her. Under Albert's encouraging gaze, Victoria asked in a soft tone: "Your Excellency, Prime Minister, what do you think of some recent events?"

"What do you mean?" Although Aberdeen understood what Victoria was talking about, he still asked specifically out of caution.

"It's the Sinop incident that has been rumored recently! I heard that many people are asking our troops to go punish Russia!" Queen Victoria asked Aberdeen clearly.

"Your Majesty, please forgive me!" Thinking of all the recent events, Prime Minister Aberdeen said impulsively: "Palmerston is now using public opinion to push Britain onto the path of war! If this continues If so, Britain is likely to face a terrible disaster!"

"Oh?" Albert said calmly, "I don't think this is a disaster!"

Aberdeen looked at Prince Albert in astonishment, and he couldn't help but feel panic in his heart.

"Could it be that that guy Palmerston has already done the work of the royal family?" Aberdeen thought.

How does Aberdeen know now that declaring war on the Russian Empire was something Albert had planned early on.

However, it was because there was no anti-Russian enthusiasm within Britain, and the Russian Empire had not yet completely touched the bottom line of the British Kingdom.

谷拋/span Now that both conditions have been met, Prime Minister Albert is naturally willing to declare war on the Russian Empire.

Furthermore, France has now entered a state of war with Russia, and the British Kingdom does not need to fear being isolated.

"Your Highness, declaring war on the Russian Empire will not do any good for the Empire!" Prime Minister Aberdeen said slurred words due to nervousness: "The first thing we need to guard against is the French Empire!"

"The French Empire? They are not as greedy as the Russian Empire in asking for territory that does not belong to them! On the contrary, the Russian Empire is constantly asking for some land that does not originally belong to their country! Therefore, Russia must be curbed!" Albert The Prince spoke forcefully to the Prime Minister of Aberdeen.

Aberdeen looked at the powerful prince in front of him. He knew that the current prince had probably made all the preparations, and even the candidate for the new prime minister was ready, but he didn't know that it was Palmer. Dayton or Russell, or whichever lucky guy.

Thinking of this, Prime Minister Aberdeen hesitated for a moment, then showed a self-deprecating smile on his lips, and asked in a slightly sad tone: "Your Highness, since you have already made this decision, why do you need to ask for my opinion?"

"No, no, no!" Prince Albert shook his head and denied flatly: "The royal family will not affect the cabinet's decision-making. We support all the actions of the cabinet! These are just some suggestions we give to the cabinet!"

Yes! Theoretically speaking, the royal family cannot change the prime minister at will, nor can it formulate policies that suit its own wishes. However, the royal family can promote its own influence and elect people who have the same ideas as the prime minister to implement policies.

There are still many people in Britain who are willing to follow the "advice" of the royal family. This is the "hidden rule" of Britain.

"Your Highness, if Prussia and Austria also advance and retreat with Russia, then Britain will face the siege of three countries. With our existing army, there is no way to fight a war with them on land!" Aberdeen He was not someone who chose to just surrender. He thought Albert had raised his hidden concerns.

"If Prussia and Austria give up our friends in the Near East because of the possibility of Prussia and Austria acting together with the Russian Empire, then the Kingdom of Britain will most certainly lose all my friends!" Prince Albert replied to Aberdeen: "I I admit that the German countries are likely to be involved in this war, but this is not a situation caused by Britain, but Nicholas I's insistence on getting the German countries involved in the war. I believe that the German countries should be able to uphold a calm mind Take a good look at your mind!"

Prince Albert swallowed and continued: "Besides, we still have the French Empire as an ally! If Germany is involved in a war, France will be the first country to suffer harm."

From Albert's words, it is not difficult to hear the gloating revealed in his words.

"Since His Majesty and His Majesty have decided on this matter, I have nothing to say!" The Prime Minister of Aberdeen stood up from his seat, bowed to Queen Victoria and Prince Albert and said, "Please allow me to resign as Prime Minister. Position!"

"Prime Minister Aberdeen, are you trying to make us angry?" Albert's voice was a little colder, and his face couldn't help but become a little colder.

"No!" Aberdeen said to Albert calmly: "I just think, Your Highness, you need a tough Prime Minister! (He paused for a moment, with a wry smile on his lips), not a Prime Minister like me!"

Looking at the haggard expression of the prime minister (tool man) in front of him, Albert couldn't help but feel a little softer in his heart: "Prime Minister of Aberdeen, look for Shuyuan www.zhaosuuuan.com You can rest for a few days! Wait until the war is over. …”

"Yes! Your Highness!" Aberdeen said solemnly to Queen Victoria and Prince Albert.

In this way, the Prime Minister of Aberdeen immediately submitted his resignation letter to Queen Victoria after returning to the Prime Minister's Office.

Queen Victoria also decisively approved the resignation of Prime Minister Aberdeen, and asked Prime Minister Aberdeen to go home and take good care of his health.

After the Aberdeen Prime Minister left, the coalition government completely fell apart.

Palmerston and Russell also changed from collaborators to competitors. Since Palmerston himself was more loved by the radical people than Russell, and he also had the secret support of Albert behind him, Palmerston Madston quickly defeated Russell and became Prime Minister again, Clarendon continued as Foreign Secretary, and poor Russell continued as Speaker of the House of Commons.
