972 Coaxing and Deceiving 2

And the most tragic thing is that this incident was leaked in the end... This not only caused his reputation to be hit hard in Germany, but his own people were no longer welcomed!&1t;/p>

What is even more unbelievable is that this grand duke had such low political wisdom that he actually wanted to be the emperor of Hungary. At that time, Hungary was already controlled by Holtie. The regent was well-behaved. Why should he press a tight spell on his head? This can only be said that he was crazy about the throne! And he was extremely politically unintelligent!&1t;/p>

Therefore, for such a competitor, the prince can only say that he is too disgusted... Even if he does not have the political skills of Bismarck and others like a dragon, he is at least a tiger, but his opponent is a rabbit...&1t;/p>

If the Crown Prince Ferdinand had no problem, then the prince would not dare to plot against the Austro-Hungarian throne. After all, this is unacceptable to Germany and the Austro-Hungarian Empire. If two major powers work together to make you a small kingdom, you will be ruined.&1t;/p>

If someone comes up, if he has some level, he will still be difficult to do. But how can he wait for someone to be too poor, he will have no ability to govern the country, and he will not be able to fight. He is still a mess in politics. Just one person gives the prince courage and confidence...&1t;/p>

Of course, with the prince's ambition and ability, as well as the security level of the Austro-Hungarian royal family... If the Grand Duke Ferdinand survives the disaster, why would he have another "accident" for him?&1t;/p>

As for what if the Austrian Emperor asks the prince for evidence? This is not simple? Give it directly! The previous things have evidence, and the Austrian Emperor absolutely dare not ask the prince for evidence of Grand Duke Carl and the British, because, after all, the previous things are internal issues of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, and the subsequent things involve their relationship with Germany!&1t;/p>

What if the prince really comes up with evidence? Do you deal with it or not? Now Carl is just an ordinary grand duke. Such a person is foreign, and you don’t care? But how do you do it? I imprison it? Or do you take it out and kill it? This person is still in contact with the Hungarian senior officials. If you kill him, what will the Hungarians think? People are also worried about the Ao Emperor to settle the score in the autumn! If he doesn’t care, if the German Emperor knows about this matter, the situation... is simply too beautiful and dare not watch it! So this is a dead end, a dead end that Fritz can’t see the solution for the time being!&1t;/p>

Therefore, the prince had guessed the possible choice of Emperor Ao Huang, which was to investigate the affairs of Grand Duke Carl in China first. As for the British affairs, take it slowly, and gradually weaken Grand Duke Carl's rights and make him an insignificant role. After all, this is the safest and safest. In order to "appease" the prince, the Ao Huang also had to bring out some benefits. In this way, everyone would be fine...&1t;/p>

The prince could still guess Grand Duke Carl's choice. When he realized that he was getting farther and farther away from the throne, the grand duke might take risks. If this is the case, it would be really done! The prince couldn't help but like his blackheartedness and political talents!&1t;/p>

"I always think it is impossible to contact the British. It may be just a bit of a storm." Fritz said with a frown.&1t;/p>

"I just kindly reminded that it is really not good to expose this matter. After all, this is a heavy blow to the reputation of the royal family and the relationship between Germany and Austria. However, this kind of thing cannot continue. I not only talk about the connection with the British, but also with Hungary! This is a heavy blow to the empire, which encourages the tendency of ethnic division within the empire!" said the prince.&1t;/p>

"This matter needs to be investigated. If this is true, I know how to do it." Fritz naturally would not have done Grand Duke Carl just by the prince's words. He naturally needs to investigate it himself first, but this is enough, because Carl and Hungary do some transactions, and they do it before they have taken office or even been established as crown prince. Where is this putting the Austrian emperor? Therefore, if you want to get rid of Carl, you need to do it step by step. This time, the prince's goal has been achieved.&1t;/p>

At this point, Fritz knew that today's conversation could not continue. If Grand Duke Carl really did what the prince said, then the Austro-Hungarian Empire would definitely not allow him to inherit it. Otherwise, if not talk about the prince, Prussia would do it first... And if Karl was not chosen, then who could go? It seems that maybe it was only Princess Mary? But what would Prussia do? What would the attitude in China? Even if Fritz really planned to pass on the throne to Princess Mary in the end, then there was still a lot of things to do.&1t;/p>

"Okay, let's do it today. As for the naval issue, you can talk more about Admiral House. You can decide these things yourself. In addition, I can order the Austro-Hungarian Army to cooperate with you. There will be no accidents in materials and other aspects. I am serious." The Austrian Emperor said.&1t;/p>

"That's better," said Ruprecht. "If I want to transfer two fearless ships away, will you have any objection?"&1t;/p>

"If Mary becomes the queen, then you will be the regent of Austria. You should know what to do. You are good at fighting, both on the ground and on the sea. So, even if I can't understand, I still choose to believe you this time." After a moment of contemplation, Fritz finally delegated the command of the Mediterranean fleet to the prince. This time, the prince's basic purpose of this trip to Vienna was also halfway!&1t;/p>

"In addition, Mary also needs to know something and do something. If one day my empire is really irreversible, then at least we must keep Austria. Munich is your home, and in the future Vienna, the Hoffman Palace is also your home." Fritz said at last when Ruprecht was about to leave.&1t;/p>

"Okay, I will do my best to have a better tomorrow for ourselves and for our kingdom." Ruprecht turned around and looked at the already haggard monarch and said seriously.&1t;/p>

"Ruprecht, how is my father?" When the prince just walked out, he met Princess Mary waiting beside him.&1t;/p>

"He is very tired now and a little exhausted." The prince looked at his wife's eyes full of concern, and did not talk about military and political affairs, but changed the topic. "Let's go tomorrow, don't talk about those troublesome things these days. Leave the military affairs to me."&1t;/p>
