Alfred changed from his usual submissiveness to his brother, and now he became sharp-edged and spoke fiercely. He shifted all responsibilities to the king.
"I know that you have always longed for France and hated Prussia. When you were forced to sign the contract with Bismarck, you always thought it was a shame!"
"But don't forget that you are the king. Your responsibility is to lead the people of a country to become rich and powerful, not to do whatever you want according to your own preferences!"
"No matter how annoying Prussia is, it is still a country of the same nation as us. We all speak the same language, believe in the same religion, and we have the same living habits and food culture..."
"You can't change these!"
"Look what you did? You walked away from the banquet and left the head of state of the East aside. How can you do such a disrespectful act?"
"Don't forget that Xiao Letian is not only the special envoy of Prussia, he is also the head of state of the East. His status is the same as yours!"
"Even if you think about the future of our Bavarian industry and commerce, you have to be polite! Don't you have any idea about the eastern market?"
"You offended Xiao Letian at the banquet, and then you secretly met with the French emissary... The most chilling thing is, why did you disclose information about Xiao Letian's itinerary to the French?"
"What good will Xiao Letian's death do to you? This will drag our Bavaria into the quagmire of war!"
"That's enough!" Ludwig II roared and slammed the table, "Nonsense! You are just talking nonsense! It's all false accusations!"
"I admit that I hate Prussia and I hate Xiao Letian. I also admit that I have acted impolitely...but I have not disclosed any information to the French!"
"I have never revealed any information!"
"Who is that? Who else can it be!" Alfred frowned and retorted, "This kind of assassination operation is impossible without long-term preparation! *Experts have analyzed that such an assassination would take at least 24 hours. Prepare in advance!"
"Who can know the schedule 24 hours in advance? Railway workers or dispatchers? They can only know it half an hour in advance!"
"Do you want me to doubt Prussian intelligence officers? Will there be traitors among the men trained by Bismarck?"
"Or is it that Xiao Letian is tired of living and wants to commit suicide? Is he looking for death by leaking information?"
"If everything is impossible, then the remaining results, no matter how bizarre, must be true!"
"Only the three of us can have early access to the schedule, so who else besides the three of us can do it?"
"Yes! Of course there is..." The king pointed at his brother and said, "Don't you have any suspicion? Why should you be excluded?"
Prince Liutpod stopped after hearing this: "Your Majesty! Do you mean that even I will be suspected? Alfred is suspected, why don't you say that I am also a serious suspect?"
"No...Uncle, I'm not doubting you! But now that things have reached this point, what do you want me to say?"
Alfred looked at his brother with pity, shook his head and sighed, "Brother... can you say such a thing?"
"Everyone in Bavaria knows that our father and son firmly support Prussia! We are willing to do our best for the upcoming war against France!"
"We hope that Xiao Letian can support Prussia even more. We hope that Germany will be stronger. For this war, our father and son have been focusing most of their energy on the construction of the army in the past few years!"
"This is obvious to the whole government and the opposition! Are you doubting us now? God, are you a child? Who would believe such angry words?"
Listening to his brother's confession, Ludwig II felt as if there was a big stone in his heart. He wanted to say something but couldn't speak. The grievance was stuffed in his heart and he turned red.
"I didn't... I swear to God, I really didn't! How could I do such a thing? Am I crazy? Can't I understand the consequences of this?"
"How could you frame me like this!" The king was so wronged that he almost cried, but due to his identity, he was forced to endure it.
Prince Liutpod, who had been listening, suddenly sighed and spoke, "Your Majesty... I believe you!"
"Uncle..." The king was moved to tears.
"But..." the prince hesitated, "but the problem now is that others don't believe you! It can be said that more than half of the people in Europe doubt you!"
"So for the current plan, you have to go and explain it to the Prussians in person! It will be useless for any of us to go..."
Ludwig II was desperate. He really didn't want to face that strongman Bismarck! But thinking about what my uncle said, there is really no other good way.
"I...I...I..." The king hesitated and couldn't say a complete sentence.
At this moment, a soldier suddenly ran out of the window. He was sweating profusely and rushed into the carriage. He stood at the door of the carriage and saluted and shouted.
"Report to your majesty... there is a train coming from the north... the Prussians are coming... Prime Minister Bismarck is on the train!"
"What?" All three people stood up, their eyes widening in disbelief.
"Why did Bismarck come here secretly without any diplomatic note? This is to mobilize troops... Your Majesty, you must be prepared, Bismarck will never let go of this perfect opportunity to attack our Bavaria!"
Ludwig II's little face turned pale with fright, and he barely managed to hold on without letting his legs shake.
This cannot be blamed on the young king. In this era, Bismarck's evil reputation has spread throughout Europe. Except for big countries such as Britain, France, and Russia, which are indifferent, other heads of state have headaches when they hear this man's name.
It would be strange for a political novice like Ludwig II not to panic!
The railway station was on high alert, and the Bavarian Guards began to increase the density of sentries. There was a heavily armed soldier three meters apart on both sides of the railway, guarding the special train with his back to the train.
The whirring locomotive puffing out white smoke began to slowly approach the platform. People could feel the Prime Minister's invisible pressure before Bismarck got off the train.
When the train stopped firmly on the platform, all the doors suddenly opened, and heavily armed soldiers rushed down, forming a human alley with their bodies. They even pulled the bolts of their guns and loaded the bullets.
Soldiers jumped off the train one after another, quickly forming a Prussian safety belt, and they continued to squeeze the Bavarian Guards. Soon these Prussians had occupied one-third of the train station. .
The elites of the mountain division with strong bodies began to climb to the commanding heights of the buildings around the station, controlling all streets and dangerous areas with their modified guns.
These panicked Bavarian officers and soldiers did not know that it was not just this train of more than a thousand soldiers protecting Bismarck. Five kilometers to the north outside the city, the three thousand Prussian cavalry had emerged from the forest and were slowing down. Slowly pressed towards the city.
Once the situation becomes dangerous, they will become a sharp knife that directly pierces the Bavarians' defense line and directly take away the iron-blooded Prime Minister.
