C2581 Anxiety in the Tuileries Palace (2/2)
”If the power of a country can't be gathered together, what else can it do?!” ”You're really muddle-headed …”
”Today, I am celebrating Xiao Letian's death! I'm not here to spoil the fun for you! ”
After berating his son for a while, Napoleon was finally able to clear his head. Looking at his son's wronged expression, he felt his heart soften a little. ”You're still too young. Politics is too complicated, and it's not something you can understand right now. All you need to do is to follow your father and study, then slowly mature …”
”However, you have done a great job of calming down the riot this time … What do you want? As long as I can satisfy it, I will satisfy it all for you! ”
The crown prince's eyes immediately lit up. ”Father …” I want a fleet... I... I want to take three or four years to travel around the world. I want to personally study the development of the colonial economy around the world... ”
”I feel like there's still room for improvement in our current mode of governance. I've always wanted to find a new way to rule the world …”
”Global travel? Studying the politics, economy, and humanities of the world? Interesting... ”Fine, Father can promise you that as long as we come into contact with Prussian threats, I'll let you command a fleet …”
”At that time, your first stop will be the Ryukyu in the East. You will take over my position and destroy that Chinese … ”Hahaha!”
The moment Xiao Letian was mentioned, French Emperor felt extremely refreshed. He picked up a glass of champagne from the serving maid's tray and drank it all in one gulp.
The crown prince sneakily glanced at his father and muttered in a low voice, ”What if... What if Xiao Letian is not dead yet? ”
The Duke of oculi bridge looked at the Crown Prince warningly, then shook his head, meaning that he better not talk about this ever again.
With the help of the alcohol, Napoleon III raised his glass and shouted to the people in the hall happily, ”Ladies and gentlemen, ladies and gentlemen! Let us celebrate, we have successfully cut off one of Prussian's arms! ”
”I swear to you all, I will definitely teach these Prussian a bloody lesson … All of this was just the beginning! is just a beginning … ”
”I want to restore my uncle's glory, I want to reproduce the glory of the battle of Yena... I want to annex half of Prussia again! ”
”Long live!” The men and women in the hall were cheering, and the atmosphere suddenly became even more lively.
Among the crowd, Eugen. He did not follow the cheers, but walked to the corner of terrace by himself. Watching the endless display of fireworks in the garden, he felt a sense of worry from the bottom of his heart.
”Will the situation really develop as we think? Father said that centralization of authority can solve all problems, but how can Britain become a British Empire if they don't have such centralization of authority? ”
”And Xiao Letian … Was he really that easy to die? And even if he dies, will our France really take advantage of him? ”
”I don't get it …” ”I really can't figure it out!”
The Crown Prince was too young. There were many things he could not understand at his age. If he wanted to become a wise man, he would have to cultivate for another thirty to forty years.
The Crown Prince was not a wise man, but at the moment, there were true wise men in Europe thinking that Brussels of the Northern Belgium, the leader of the ideologues, Blanqui, was writing letters to his old friend in London.
