v3 Chapter 142： Paris emergency meeting

The Netherlands was not originally selected, but the former King William III of the Netherlands was proposed by Carl XV of Sweden, and was approved by the French emperors Napoleon III and William I.

When Queen Victoria did not object, and Osman agreed, everyone else began to choose acquiescence.

This made King Louis I of Portugal and King Victor Emmanuel II of Italy sank and looked at each other, both of them could see the dissatisfaction in each other's eyes.

The Italian King Victor Emmanuel II raised an objection, and Austria has not dealt with Italy before, but this time, it is surprising that he agrees with this point of view.

This quickly brought the meeting to an impasse.

The seating arrangement in Paris this time is also very realistic.

On a long conference table sits the first host, Napoleon I. The first row on his left is for Queen Victoria of England and Joseph I of Austria.

On the right is Alexander II of the Russian Empire near Napoleon III, followed by William I of Prussia, and Sultan Abdulaziz of the Ottoman Empire.

This is the distinction between status and intimacy, and Europe respects the right.

On the right side of the second floor are Isabel II of Spain, William IV of the Netherlands, King Frederick VII of Denmark, and Karl XV of Sweden.

On the left are Victor Emmanuel II of Italy, Louis I of Portugal, Leopold II of Belgium, and Maximilian II of Bavaria.

The rest are a group of principalities of the German Confederation and other countries on the Barba Peninsula, basically the role of auditors.

"I said, it's not a solution for everyone to waste time like this. I don't know how to choose from the principalities. Is this okay?" King Louis I of Portugal seemed to say impatiently,

"I don't think it's okay to stir-fry the meat. After all, everyone knows the problem of loyalty. It's not that I said it badly. This time Greece happened because of the problem of loyalty. Otto I actually arranged for almost more than half of the Greek kingdom. Important positions are held by candidates from the Kingdom of Bavaria and the parliament is still limited, which is the main reason for the dissatisfaction of the Greek people.”

Louis I smiled kindly at William IV across Queen Victoria in front of her and Alexander II opposite her, and reminded him kindly:

"His Majesty William III was the king of the Netherlands for more than ten years before, and no one would think that he was disloyal to the Netherlands, at least the Greeks would not think so, because since he has been unfaithful to the Netherlands for more than ten years, then the Greeks will not think so. How can one believe that he will be faithful to Greece?"

Yes, William III is loyal, and the Greeks suspect that it is another Otto I who came with the heart of loyalty to the Netherlands.

Be unfaithful, Greece thinks that it is not even loyal to the motherland, then Greece naturally dare not ask for such a character.

Everyone looked at Louis I in amazement, but no one thought that Louis I, who had just inherited the throne of his brother Pedro V in November last year, was so eloquent that he seemed to have sent William III of the Netherlands south to the Mediterranean to inherit the throne. The hopes of the Greek king were blocked.

Emmanuel II looked at his beloved son-in-law with great satisfaction.

Queen Victoria's expression changed, but she didn't show any expression, just intentionally or unintentionally, looking between Emmanuel II and Louis I.

Napoleon III is not surprised. It seems that it has nothing to do with him. He is the host this year and is a good host.

However, Alexander II showed a look of excitement, looked at Queen Victoria, who gave him a roll of eyes, Alexander II shook his head, and said, "First love is no more, things are wrong."

After that, he didn't speak.

But I don't know if he was referring to Queen Victoria, the first love of Alexander II, or the current situation of upheaval in Europe.

William I was the most calm, and from time to time he turned his head to chat with the two behind William IV, but he was at ease, as if he didn't care about the throne from the beginning.

On the other hand, Joseph I of Austria, who was opposite him, hated his teeth.

It is a pity that he is bound to be strong. Look at his current seat position, and then think that Vienna, the Austrian Empire of Metternich, used to be the host of the European Congress during the Metternich period. Now the Paris Conference has suppressed the dissatisfaction in his heart.

But what he didn't know was that William I saw everything in his eyes, and he had a little more chance of winning the future Prussian plan in his heart.

"Your Majesty William I, look at the other side, do you think the world is full of opportunities? Look at the servants behind His Majesty Joseph I over there, they all show dissatisfaction, and if you just provoked a little bit, it would be an opportunity. There is a multi-domino effect, when the time comes, Prussia's position in the German Confederation will be really difficult to shake."

William I was shocked, and quickly turned his head and gave William IV a face to shut his mouth. At the same time, he looked worriedly at Alexander II, who was one meter away, and Isabel II behind him, and then looked at Osman Sultan. Budulaziz, and the King Frederick VII of Denmark behind him were relieved to see that the expressions of several people did not change.

He said softly, "Are you threatening me?"

"Your Majesty, do you think I need a threat? I'm jealous, and if Prussia can help us take Greece, and reduce Austria's southward passage to the south, then with Prussia's friendly relations with the Netherlands, it's only good for Prussia. The downside, far from it, is that the Prussian warships and freighters are docked in the Mediterranean Sea, etc. I don’t think King William III of Greece will refuse you to stop in Athens.”

William I was stunned for a moment, gave him a meaningful look, then turned his head and said to Louis I of Portugal: "I think His Majesty Louis I said a lot."

Everyone was captivated by the words of William I.

In fact, the quiet conversation between him and William IV just now was seen by others. Although he couldn't understand it because his voice was too low, the intimacy of the two's actions had already shown that the two had a close personal relationship.

This made Joseph I secretly annoyed that William IV of the Netherlands did not give Austria face, and at the same time was a little surprised that William I stood up at this time. Shouldn't the big country be the last to appear?

These words are also the thoughts of other heads of state.

Alexander II's interest increased a lot, and he turned back to Isabel II and smiled softly: "It seems that the good show is about to begin."

Isabelle II also laughed: "Yes, William IV is indeed a good king."

What is this comment called?

Alexander II was embarrassed for a moment.

The opposite Queen Victoria and Napoleon III held back their smiles, but the corners of their mouths pouted a little.

This made Alexander II smile bitterly. Click to download this site APP, massive novels, free to read!
