Interesting, things are getting interesting now!
Xiao Letian thought to himself that this Ludwig II was very rude and did not come to greet him. Do you really despise yourself? Or was it just that he hadn't thought of it?
Now listening to Prince Liutpod's words, Xiao Letian can confirm from the side that Ludwig II did not despise him, but simply because he did not think of it.
This will match the image in his intelligence. Young, lonely, artistic, with an uncertain sexual orientation.
To put it bluntly, he is potentially mentally ill! Once such people are stimulated by something, they will easily break down emotionally. Most artists have this trait and are potentially mentally ill.
And it seems that Prince Liutpod, the uncle, does not care much about his nephew king. It is conceivable that compared with his strong aura, how can a literary young man suppress it?
The king is weak and the minister is strong! It seems that the Kingdom of Bavaria will be in civil strife sooner or later!
And it is very possible that the prince did not come to greet him today because Ludwig II did not come to greet him!
Seeing it but not telling it, the smile on Xiao Letian's face became even brighter. "I have longed for the beautiful scenery of the Alps for a long time. I am really lucky to be able to see it with my own eyes today!"
Prince Liutpod laughed and led the way, "If the head of state doesn't mind, you can ride in my carriage to the castle together. Along the way, I can introduce to you the beautiful lakes and mountains of our Kingdom of Bavaria!"
"Thank you so much! This is just what I wanted!"
The envoys finally left the train station, and the exquisite palace carriages carrying these distinguished guests soon left the city of Munich and headed towards the Southern Alps.
Without seeing it with your own eyes, people can't imagine how beautiful the scenery of the Alps is!
On the top of the mountains in the distance, the white snow remains unchanged for thousands of years. Below the snow line is a coniferous forest that is evergreen all year round. The dark green belt is as thick and colorful as the one drawn by the god's brush.
Lakes dot the mountains, and streams and rivers pulsate through the forests. As we march, villages hidden in the mountains appear and disappear.
In the distance, the beautiful shepherdess drove her sheep and looked at the royal carriage in a daze. Maybe there is a Cinderella dream hidden in this girl's heart.
…
Xiao Letian looked at the beautiful scenery in front of him and couldn't help but be intoxicated. Prince Liutpod beside him looked at the head of state's expression meaningfully. He politely fell silent and did not interrupt the head of state's contemplation.
After more than half an hour, Xiao Lecai withdrew his nostalgic gaze from the window and looked at the prince beside him apologetically, "I'm really sorry. This is my first time to come to the Alps and enjoy the beautiful scenery here. So I lost my composure and got distracted, please forgive me!"
"No, no, no...you don't have to apologize. As a host, I feel extremely gratified to see distinguished guests from far away enjoying our beautiful scenery!"
"Führer! You came to the Kingdom of Bavaria this time not just to see the scenery, right? Did you bring some missions with you? My old friend Bismarck, who is in Berlin, what are your plans? Can you advance in advance? Reveal something?"
"Actually, there is nothing to keep secret, Your Highness! The situation in the German states is so difficult right now. The relationship between France and Prussia is already on fire. No one knows if the gunfire will go off one day..."
"Don't forget, after the Austro-Prussian War, the Kingdom of Bavaria and Prussia have signed an offensive and defensive alliance treaty, which means that once a war breaks out, Bavaria is obliged to send its own legions!"
"The Prime Minister of Bismarck is busy with work and has no skills, so he cannot come to personally inspect the preparations of the Kingdom of Bavaria. Other important Prussian ministers also have their own tasks. After thinking about it, I am the only one who is free, so I was sent here. See it for yourself.”
"But please remember, Prince, that I am traveling to Bavaria in my personal capacity. I will only declare to the outside world that I am a routine state visit, and I will never admit that I have a purpose!"
"I hope His Highness the Prince will warn his domestic newspapers not to speak carelessly to avoid unnecessary disputes!"
Hahaha! Prince Liutpod laughed, "Please rest assured, head of state, the door of the Kingdom of Bavaria is open to you, you can check at any time..."
"Bavaria currently has 00,000 troops stationed there. Once war breaks out, I can provide 100,000 reinforcements to Prussia!"
"There are still many people among the people who support us to teach the French a lesson! By then, the number of troops recruited by the people will only be more, not less!"
"You can rest assured that Bavaria is ready for war!"
"I hope so. If this is the case, I think Prime Minister Bismarck will be relieved!"
…
Just as Xiao Letian's motorcade was traveling on the road to Hohenschwangau, in that beautiful castle, King Ludwig II of Bavaria was having an affair with a beautiful lady. dispute.
"My dear cousin, what exactly do you mean? You want me to cooperate with that Chinese, and why should I cooperate with him? Do you want me to obey him?"
The cousin the king was talking about was, of course, Princess Sissi who had just returned to her family from England. At this moment, Princess Sissi was not as charming as before. Instead, she looked at her brother with a serious face and said calmly.
"What does it mean to obey orders? When did I say this or express this meaning? I just hope you can wake up and actively participate in preparing for the war!"
"Xiao Letian must have come with Bismarck's secret mission this time. These two are war madmen. They have no time to go sightseeing. Besides checking Bavaria's preparations for war, what other reason could there be? ?”
Ludwig II shook his head and waved his hands indifferently, "War, war, war! What a meaningless war... Dear sister, do you really think war will break out? In my opinion, Prussia is just bluffing. , Facing Napoleon III’s aggressive offensive, do they really dare to fight with all their might?”
"Don't worry, my dear cousin, even if Bismarck and the others go crazy and are willing to be gamblers, they probably have no chance of winning in front of the powerful France!"
"That's France, the cultural capital of Europe! The place where European court etiquette is mastered! Where are the best operas! The most beautiful poetry! The most exquisite food and the most beautiful costumes..."
"Although Britain is the most powerful empire on which the sun never sets, in terms of cultural contributions, they can't catch up with the French. How could such a powerful France be defeated so easily? It gave birth to the Napoleon family. What a magical nation!”
