Make France Great Again

Chapter 589 Beating Cavour

Cavour was stunned for a moment when he was called by Princess Mathilde, and then he immediately realized that Princess Mathilde must have something to talk to him about when she called him out alone!

Could it be that there is news from His Majesty? Cavour thought to himself.

"Mr. Cavour! Mr. Cavour!" After Princess Mathilde's voice reached Cavour's ears, Cavour, who came back to his senses, first apologized to the gentlemen sitting around him, and then agreed with him. Princess Mathilde left the room together.

When Cavour and Princess Mathilde came to the corridor, Mathilde pointed to the maid next to her and said to Cavour: "Mr. Cavour, she will take you to see my brother. (Mr. Princess Tilde doesn’t like to call Jerome Bonaparte emperor, and Jerome Bonaparte is also happy to see it happen.) I won’t send it to you!”

Mathilde paused and pointed to the original room.

"Your Royal Highness, thank you very much for your generous reception!" Cavour responded to Princess Mathilde with a slightly humble attitude, and then bowed to the maid beside him: "Then I'll trouble you!"

"Monsieur Count, please come with me!" the maid responded to Cavour.

Under the leadership of the maid, Cavour quickly arrived at the door of a room on the first floor.

"Your Majesty, it's inside!" the maid said to Cavour, pointing to the room.

His Majesty actually came here in person!

Cavour was a little surprised that Jérôme Bonaparte visited in person. However, when he thought about the evaluation of the emperor by the Paris nobles he had come into contact with, the surprise in his heart disappeared.

"Thank you very much!" Cavour expressed his gratitude to the maid again and gave her a small gadget that was not very valuable (for Cavour himself.)

"Your Excellency, this is too expensive!" The maid shook her head and rejected Cavour's gift.

"Madam, this thing is not valuable!" Cavour emphasized, and then pretended to be wealthy and continued: "If you think it is too valuable, you can give it to Princess Mathilde. My thing Once I take action, I have absolutely no intention of taking it back!"

The maid glanced at the gold coin handed over by Cavour. After hesitating for a few seconds, she finally accepted Cavour's gift, and also "intimately" told Cavour how Jérôme Bonaparte was feeling at the moment. .

After hearing the maid's answer, Cavour became more certain that big things could be done with a small amount of money.

Sometimes, all it takes is a small favor to get information that would cost a lot of money to uncover.

After parting with the maid, Cavour knocked gently on the door.

"The door is unlocked, come in!" Jerome Bonaparte's voice came from the room.

Cavour hurriedly entered the room, where Jérôme Bonaparte was sitting on the sofa tasting freshly brewed green tea.

The arrival of Cavour made Jérôme Bonaparte put down the tea cup in his hand and stood up to greet him.

"Your Majesty, sit down!" Cavour responded quickly to Jérôme Bonaparte.

Then Cavour and Jérôme Bonaparte sat on the sofa. Jérôme Bonaparte made a cup of tea for Cavour and asked Cavour: "Mr. Cavour, do you know the tea ceremony?" ?”

Cavour shook his head. How could he understand the tea ceremony when he was busy with everything.

"This is a tea-tasting method inherited from the ancient empire of the East. People who pay attention to it have a word for it!" Jérôme Bonaparte placed the brewed tea in front of Cavour: "Making tea before tasting it In the tea stage, the tea should be filtered first...don't be too impatient...when tasting the tea, you should also taste it carefully and don't drink it in one gulp! Not only will you get burned, but you will also be unable to taste the tea leaves. The unique charm it exudes.”

Jérôme Bonaparte once again picked up the tea cup made of purple sand in his hand, took a sip gently, then closed his eyes and felt it quietly.

Cavour, who was sitting next to Jérôme Bonaparte, also imitated Jérôme Bonaparte's gesture of tasting tea, but he did not feel the unique charm that Jérôme Bonaparte said.

"Look! I told you not to be anxious, not to be anxious! Why are you so anxious? Is time so precious to you?" Jérôme Bonaparte scolded Cavour with a pun. .

Prime Minister Cavour, who was among the best in political wisdom, immediately understood what Jérôme Bonaparte meant. He quickly apologized to Jérôme Bonaparte and said: "Your Majesty, it is true that I am too impatient! Can you please let me wait for a while? First grade!”

Jerome Bonaparte showed a "cowardly" expression and once again poured a cup of tea for Cavour.

This time, Cavour finally tasted the unique flavor of this cup of tea. This flavor contained sourness and helplessness, and only Cavour, as the person involved, knew these two feelings best.

"Do you feel it?" Jérôme Bonaparte's voice reached Cavour's ears.

Cavour nodded and responded to Jerome Bonaparte: "I feel it!"

"Mr. Cavour, you have initially understood the tea ceremony!" Jérôme Bonaparte seemed to be applauding Cavour for his quick understanding of the "tea ceremony".

"Your Majesty, I have a question to ask you!" Cavour said to Jérôme Bonaparte in a respectful manner.

"Ask! You can ask anything! There is nothing you can't ask!" Jérôme Bonaparte responded to Cavour.

"Your Majesty, what I want to ask is how long does it take to brew this tea before you can taste it?" Cavour said to Jérôme Bonaparte.

Jérôme Bonaparte's smile gradually faded, and his expression became serious.

Seeing Jérôme Bonaparte's rapidly changing expression, Cavour couldn't help but feel anxious.

"It can take as little as 3 or 4 years, as long as 6 or 7 years, or even more than ten years!" Jérôme Bonaparte said slowly: "After all, the current heat has not yet arrived! (Apennine Peninsula) The problem is not yet mature!) Rising the heat rashly will only cause the whole pot of tea to completely turn into waste tea! (If you rashly stir up conflicts in the Yaping Peninsula, it will only destroy the relative peace maintained during the Crimean War.) "

"But, I heard that between you and the Austrian Empire..." Cavour couldn't help but said to Jerome Bonaparte.

"Mr. Cavour, it seems that whether the Empire is hostile or at peace with the Austrian Empire does not require the consent of the Kingdom of Sardinia!" Jerome Bonaparte snorted coldly and asked Cavour: "All countries in the world (countries recognized by France) enjoy independent sovereignty and diplomacy, and no country is allowed to interfere!"

"Your Majesty, that's not what I meant!" Cavour's expression changed slightly, and he hurriedly begged Jérôme Bonaparte: "I understand that the reason why the French Empire has diplomatic relations with the Austrian Empire is The purpose of war..."

Cavour's explanation of washing the land for Jérôme Bonaparte satisfied Jérôme Bonaparte.

It's just that poor Cavour would not have thought that the Kingdom of Sardinia and the unification of Italy would only exist in his dreams.

After all, in Jerome Bonaparte's script, Sardinia only existed as a nail to deter the Papal State and the Austrian Empire, and he did not want this nail to pierce his hand.

From time to time, the Austrian Empire used the Austrian Empire to intimidate Sardinia's diplomacy, making them feel nervous. Only in this way can they rely on the French Empire.

"Mr. Cavour, I can understand your desire to free the Apennine Peninsula from the control of the Austrian Empire and realize a unification similar to the German Confederation!" Jérôme Bonaparte comforted Cavour.

"That's right!" Cavour, who in his heart hoped to establish a kingdom dominated by the Kingdom of Sardinia, echoed Jerome Bonaparte and said: "Our Italian nation has been divided for many years, and many people hope to establish a confederal system. s country!"

"Just now, Prince Albert and I also discussed the issue of the Apennine Peninsula!" Jérôme Bonaparte continued to Cavour: "Although Prince Albert hopes to establish a German Confederation as much as I do. model of the Italian Confederation, but he also believed that in its current form we could only maintain certain relations with the Austrian Empire.

Therefore, some issues on the Apennine Peninsula can only be left to be considered after the war is over!

However, please rest assured that we will not remember your contribution in this war.

If you have time tonight, I'd like to invite you to a dance party at the Louvre! "

"Of course!" Cavour nodded and quickly responded to Jérôme Bonaparte.

"Very good! Mr. Cavour, now it seems that the two of us have reached a consensus!" Jérôme Bonaparte smiled again and responded to Cavour.

"Your Majesty, I'm sorry to trouble you to meet you in person because of this small problem!" Cavour once again apologized to Jérôme Bonaparte, "I hope my arrival will not disturb your mood!"

"It's nothing!" Jerome Bonaparte shook his head, "Actually, I quite like chatting with people like you. Chatting openly and openly. Chatting with Franz Joseph makes me feel that I am living in the same place. Just like the monarchs of the 18th century chatting."

"Your Majesty, this is Habsburg's consistent style!" Cavour seized the opportunity to slander Habsburg and said: "Old and decadent!"

"That's right!" Jérôme Bonaparte smiled and agreed with Cavour's view. Find Shuyuan www. zhaoshuyuan.com

Then Cavour said goodbye to Jerome Bonaparte, who also left Princess Mathilde's mansion quietly.

Jérôme Bonaparte, who left Mathilde's mansion, did not return to the Tuileries Palace, but went to the Quai d'Orsay to meet with De Ruys.

"Go and tell the envoy of the Papal State that Cavour has found me again and discussed the issue of the Apennine Peninsula with me! I also agree with Cavour!" Jerome Bonaparte said to De Lu Yisdao.

"Your Majesty, this may cause panic in the Papal States!" De Ruys reminded Jerome Bonaparte.

"How could Pius IX succumb to us without causing panic in Pius IX!"
