The life and death of Ludwig II had nothing to do with Xiao Letian. Xiao Letian didn't bother to care about this young king who daydreamed every day.
But Princess Sissi's face had to be given. The relationship between the two was not simply between lovers. In fact, the two had deeper political interests. .
As we all know, the Austro-Hungarian Empire did not have any overseas colonies, but it was precisely because Princess Sissi met Xiao Letian that the two of them actually found a beautiful island, Mauritius, in the southern Indian Ocean.
Mauritius does not have much economic value, nor is it a very important strategic location. But this is after all a bold attempt by the Chinese and the Austro-Hungarian Empire to go abroad and own an enclave in a distant ocean. The political symbolic significance of this attempt is huge!
Don't think that the politicians of the Austro-Hungarian Empire are fools. If the relationship between Princess Sissi and Xiao Letian cannot bring any benefits to the empire, then I am afraid that countless people will jump out to dismantle this alliance at this moment. That's right.
Although Europeans are very shameless when it comes to messing around with men and women, they still have basic court etiquette, and they still have to save face in the scene!
Princess Sissi and Xiao Letian have a very complicated relationship between a man and a woman. There is not only love between men and women, but also deep interest entanglements.
Princess Sissi hopes to expand business interests in Asia through Xiao Letian.
Xiao Letian also wanted to use Princess Sissi's status as queen to carve out some benefits for himself in the iron-barrel European royal family.
You must know that the Habsburg dynasty is an old royal family in Europe. Historically, the territory they ruled was so large that no other royal family in Europe could match it.
This unique identity naturally brings huge prestige, and with this prestige, doing some things will be done with less effort.
For example, Xiao Letian is currently implementing a high-paying immigration policy in Europe. He is extending an olive branch to skilled workers, engineers, and scientists across Europe, hoping that they can work in Chinese territory.
However, Europeans know too little about the Chinese, and many people hesitate to try it even if they want to, not knowing whether it is a trap.
But if Princess Sissi comes forward to handle these things, then everyone's doubts will be dispelled, because the status of the Queen of the Habsburg Dynasty is a huge endorsement of credibility.
Xiao Letian was able to build a huge dodo nature reserve with Princess Sissi. Then naturally you can invest in an immigration company in Europe!
Those high-level skilled workers, engineers, and scientists who failed in Europe will be continuously replenished to the Chinese.
Xiao Letian's capital can even get involved in some European land transactions. Many poor nobles own land, castles, forests, and mines at home, and they are eager to sell them.
Although according to market rules, the highest bidder should win, but Europeans have European arrogance. If your identity is not enough, no matter how much money you ask, he will not sell these things to you.
If Xiao Letian didn't borrow the influence of some high-ranking European nobles, then I'm afraid he wouldn't even be able to enter a door like this with an auction.
Just like at this moment, Xiao Letian was looking at the beautiful Hohenschwangau, but he was already thinking about his little plan.
The Bavarian royal family will collapse sooner or later in the future. After the Bavarian royal family completely steps down, what should be done with the assets of these royal families?
Will it be nationalized without compensation, or will it be inherited by their families? Or is it a disguised auction? In such chaotic times, anything is possible!
Xiao Letian is rich, very rich! He really wanted to get such a beautiful building as Neuschwanstein Castle into his arms.
But it is impossible for him to do this by himself. He can only let Princess Sissi come forward and let this qualified woman come forward to handle these things!
As long as Princess Sissi can purchase the property rights of Swansea Castle, it will be Princess Sissi's own business to whom she secretly sells it to in the future.
From this point of view, the relationship between Xiao Letian and Princess Sissi, a couple, may only become closer and closer, rather than becoming more and more distant.
Now that Princess Sissi has asked Xiao Letian for help, how can a wild man like him ignore her?
Xiao Letian waved his hand and asked Fangguan to retreat. At this time, Ludwig II, who had changed his clothes, was walking back to the hall with a pale face.
"Dear Head of State, I was a little rude just now...but I still want to remind you that the topic you mentioned is really not suitable for the current happy atmosphere!"
"I guess your purpose of coming to Bavaria from Asia is not just to educate me, right?"
Xiao Letian thought to himself, you guessed it right! I just want to educate you well! Before Princess Sissi asked me for help, I could just watch you commit suicide without any concern.
But now that my woman has spoken, I'm sorry that I can only say a little disgusting words to you!
"Okay, dear king, my topic just now may have been too sensitive, which made you feel a little unhappy...Okay, let's get back to business and get back to the serious matters of my visit."
Xiao Letian extended his hand to ask Ludwig II to walk in front. The two of them stopped in front of the huge viewing terrace without any entourage.
"Your Majesty! My visit this time is just a normal state visit. The main purpose of doing this is to hide it from the eyes and ears of the French!"
"What I say to you at this moment will not be recorded, nor will it appear in any memorandum! Prime Minister Bismarck of Prussia, please let me ask you a question..."
"If a war breaks out between Prussia and France, will the Kingdom of Bavaria participate in the war? If it does, how many troops and materials can the Kingdom of Bavaria provide?"
Ludwig II also knew that Xiao Letian was not here to enjoy the scenery. Since he had already got straight to the point, he had nothing to hide.
The young king smiled slightly, "I have already guessed your purpose of coming. I can answer you clearly, the Kingdom of Bavaria respects the contract!"
"Since we have established an offensive and defensive alliance treaty with Prussia, I will definitely abide by it! Of course I don't want to see the outbreak of war, but if war is unavoidable, then I will definitely stand on the side of Prussia !”
"Oh! So His Majesty the King is determined to join the war! So may I ask, Your Majesty, how many troops and supplies are you prepared to invest?"
Ludwig II on the terrace looked at the majestic Alps and said with great pride, his hands on his hips.
"I will provide 40,000 elite Bavarian Mountain Divisions for the war. And I can provide long-term material supply support for these 40,000 troops!"
"In addition, all railways in Bavaria will be open to the Prussian military free of charge. Look at my sincerity! By then, the Prussian army and arms and supplies will be able to travel on Bavarian trains for free."
"Please go back and tell Bismarck! Our Kingdom of Bavaria is a trustworthy country, and all his worries are unnecessary!"
