Make France Great Again

Chapter 506 Congress of Vienna (1)

"Your Majesty, this is the French Empire's Foreign Minister De Ruys!"

Count Bauer walked between Franz Joseph and De Ruys and introduced Franz Joseph, and then introduced Franz Joseph and Princess Helen to De Ruys: "Mr. Ruys, Standing in front of you is His Majesty Joseph Franz, the Emperor of the Austrian Empire, and his fiancée... (Count Bauer suddenly noticed the displeasure on Franz Joseph's face and immediately changed his words) Female companion Princess Helen !”

When Princess Helen, who was standing next to Joseph Franz, heard Count Bauer call her "female companion" instead of "fiancee", a look of sadness flashed in her eyes.

The emperor still didn't like her after all. Even if she had the support of Empress Dowager Sophie, she would still be no match for her sister.

Thinking of this, Princess Helen couldn't help but feel a little disappointed, but Franz Joseph standing next to him didn't know it because Joseph Franz put all his attention on Minister De Luys. body.

"Your Majesty, Your Royal Highness the Princess!" De Luys saluted the two most respected people in the Austrian Empire in front of him.

"Mr. De Ruys!" Franz Joseph nodded slightly and said to De Ruys with a hint of arrogance in his words.

"Yes! Your Majesty!" De Luys responded humbly to Franz Joseph.

"Mr. Ruiz, I don't know if you are coming to the Austrian Empire this time with flowers or with guns and cannons!" Franz Joseph said in the calmest tone, making everyone present blush. If it changes.

Sure enough, as soon as these words came out, everyone in the hall showed different changes in their faces, including surprise (De Ruys), panic (Prince Metternich), horror (Count Bauer), and surprise. (Count Orlov).

Although De Ruys did not know why Franz Joseph would talk about such an explosive topic on this occasion, De Ruys, adhering to the diplomat's choice, still chose to express his attitude with vague views. .

"Your Majesty, of course I come with flowers and blessings! In this sacred palace, I can't carry guns at all!" De Ruys straightened his body and said to Franz in a calm tone. .Joseph responded: "I can swear to you here that I will spend my life defending the friendship between France and Austria!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the faces of Count Bauer and Prince Metternich gradually became calmer, while Count Orlov, who was hidden in the crowd, also frowned and thought secretly.

As the initiator of everything, Franz Joseph's eyes became kinder under De Luys' firm and calm gaze.

"Mr. De Ruys, thank you for your support of the Austrian Empire!" Franz Joseph replied softly to De Ruys: "I believe...well! The friendship between our two countries will last until the end of the world. The end! May God bless it!"

Franz Joseph's feeble response made De Luys feel dull.

If his monarch Jérôme Bonaparte answers this question, then what he will get is an extremely confident declaration.

De Ruys believed that even if he encountered huge difficulties, Jerome Bonaparte would deal with them with a confident attitude.

This natural leader (or performer) personality is deeply loved by the people of Paris.

In the stagnant Austrian court, one would never be able to train such a person.

"I also firmly believe that the friendship between our two countries will not change due to the changes of time!" De Ruys said firmly.

After a brief meeting between the two parties, De Ruiz returned to the crowd, while Franz Joseph continued to stand in the crowd and enjoy the stars.

However, Franz Joseph himself didn't seem to like this feeling.

De Ruys, who entered the crowd, soon met the Austrian ambassador to France. The two parties exchanged information and then parted ways.

After that, De Ruys met the British Foreign Secretary, the Earl of Clarendon.

"How long have you been here?"

"I just arrived one day earlier than you!"

The two sides chatted briefly for a few words before getting down to business.

De Ruys learned from Count Clarendon that this time the negotiator sent by the Russian Empire was Count Orlov.

After hearing the news, De Luys showed a surprised expression on his face: "Why did Nicholas I want a policeman to participate in this negotiation? Could it be that the Russian Empire's Ministry of Foreign Affairs has been unable to find a qualified negotiator? "

The Earl of Clarendon shrugged and whispered with a half-smile: "Perhaps the current Tsar Nicholas really can't find a suitable candidate! And I heard that the Russian Empire's Foreign Minister Nesserrodie has now been replaced. Nicholas I is excluded from the power system!”

"Such a guess is quite reasonable!" De Luys nodded and replied to the Earl of Clarendon.

Then De Luys showed a mocking expression on his face and said: "However, if a policeman is allowed to handle major diplomatic matters, the government agencies of Tsar Nicholas I are really free to do whatever they want!"

"Who says it's not the case!" Earl Clarendon also sighed with emotion.

After the exchange of information between the Earl of Clarendon and De Ruys ended, the Earl of Clarendon and De Ruys parted ways.

After the separation, De Ruys once again went to other regions to talk with diplomatic ambassadors from other countries, hoping to find some useful information on them.

However, what disappointed De Luys was that after going back and forth several times, he did not collect any useful information.

After all the guests arrived, the banquet officially began.

De Ruys and Lord Clarendon were placed in the first and second positions on the right side of Franz Joseph, while Count Orlov was placed in the third position on the left side of Franz Joseph. . (The first and second are Count Bauer and Interior Minister Bach)

This arrangement made the guests at the banquet have to think about it. Count Orlov remained gloomy throughout the banquet and did not say a word.

After the banquet, De Ruys was specially invited by Count Bauer to his castle on the outskirts of Vienna for discussions.

The two sides once again reached an agreement on the issue of the two Danube principalities. The French Empire did not object to the Austrian Empire safeguarding its interests in the Danube principalities.

Correspondingly, the Austrian Empire needs to stand on the side of the French Empire in the war between the French Empire and the Russian Empire, and urge the Russian Empire to evacuate the Danube Principality as soon as possible. At the same time, the Austrian Empire should also declare war with the Russian Empire as soon as possible.

Count Bauer still maintains an ambiguous attitude towards the "declaration of war on the Russian Empire" clause in the agreement that the Austrian Empire needs to fulfill.

However, Count Bauer promised that if the Russian Empire's army was unwilling to leave the Danube Principality within the specified time, the Austrian Empire would definitely declare war on it.

At this point, De Ruys reluctantly accepted Count Bauer's statement.

Because in his opinion, the Russian Empire would never give up, and the Austrian Empire would be involved in the war sooner or later. (Actually, De Ruys guessed wrong, the Russian Empire did not declare war on the Austrian Empire)

After the negotiation between De Ruys and Count Bauer, De Ruys was informed that the four-party talks (British, French, Russian and Austrian) would be held at Schonbrunn Palace on April 6. He hoped that De Ruys would not forget to participate. .

De Luys assured Count Bauer that he would come on time to attend.

Time flew by and April 6th soon came.

De Ruys, the Counts of Clarendon, Orloff, and Ball gathered in a room at Schönbrunn Palace to discuss.

Compared with the star-studded Vienna Conference, the current Four-Party Talks appear particularly poor.

The four-party talks opened with a speech by the host Count Ball. Count Ball still used clichés of "maintaining peace in Europe" and "maintaining harmony in the monarchy" as the opening of the talks.

After Earl Ball's opening speech ended, Earl Clarendon immediately went into full force. He accused the Russian Imperial Government of destroying European peace...especially the peace in the Near East in the recent period. Earl Clarendon proposed that the Russian Empire should Under the supervision of Britain, France and Austria, it withdrew from the Danube Principalities and promised not to use any excuse to infringe the interests of the Ottoman Empire in the future. Only in this way can Britain conclude peace with the Russian Empire. Moreover, the Russian Empire has been repelled by the British and French forces. If the Russian Empire remains stubborn, it won't be long before Britain and France break into the Russian Empire. Find Shuyuan www.zhaoshuyuan. com ignited the flames of war into the Russian Empire itself.

As soon as Count Clarendon spoke, Count Orlov immediately argued that the reason why the Russian Empire attacked the Ottoman Empire was entirely due to Tsar Nicholas I's sympathy for the oppressed Slavs in the Ottoman Empire (when Orlov There was a hint of hostility on Count Bauer's face when his husband said this). The Russian Empire will never give up on their Yugoslav brothers. Orlov also hopes that the French Empire and the British Kingdom can work with the Russian Empire to protect Fight for religious orders.

At the same time, Count Orlov also firmly denied Clarendon's statement that the Russian Empire was repelled. He told the Earl of Clarendon that the Russian Empire was retreating mainly because they had completed the first phase of their mission and were now moving towards the second phase.

"I would like to ask what is the first phase of the Russian Empire's mission? Is the retreat your phased mission?" De Luys immediately mocked.
