When Pierre walked out of Xiao Letian's carriage, his legs were floating as if he were walking on clouds. The shock to his soul by the words of the head of state just now was indescribable.
There are few people in this world who have such a high-level perspective. Even the bearded man in London, his ideological system is in the process of maturing and is far from finalized.
Therefore, Xiao Letian's concept of dismantling society and the law of contradiction are as deadly as nuclear weapons to human beings at this time.
Pierre was no longer confused, and the last knot in his heart was finally solved. Xiao Letian gave him a higher-level psychological experience that far exceeded nationalism.
At this moment, the suffering of the French working class has been imprinted in his heart, and changing all this has become his ideal. He is no longer that narrow-minded nationalist.
Looking back at the dim light in the carriage, he knew that Xiao Letian must not have slept yet. "Head of State... don't worry, I will spend my whole life assisting you. From now on, there will be no more doubts in my mind!"
After saying that, Pierre strode back to his car.
The assassination in Bavaria was the biggest news in 1870 after the Franco-Prussian War. The news of Xiao Letian's resurrection was actually more exciting than the news of his assassination.
When news of Xiao Letian's safety reached Hamburg, the British battleship Hercules was preparing to berth at the Hamburg pier. His Majesty the Emperor Tongzhi of the Qing Dynasty finally 'escaped' from London under the protection of sixteen British battleships. In Prussia on the eve of the war.
Prince Karl and a group of senior imperial officials were waiting at the dock. Prussia held a grander welcome ceremony than London to welcome Emperor Tongzhi.
There were more than 100,000 people on the streets of Berlin waiting for the arrival of Emperor Tongzhi. Flowers, ribbons, music, military formations... were laid out on the entire street.
However, this welcome ceremony was somewhat unsatisfactory due to the lack of Chinese presence. In addition, the news of Xiao Letian's assassination had spread throughout Europe. The people of Hamburg have very deep feelings for Xiao Letian. At this moment, these welcome ceremonies The crowd all had very complicated expressions.
The atmosphere was very depressing, and all the happy music sounded a bit sad to people's ears!
Zai Chun felt all this, and his first words after meeting Prince Carl were not diplomatic greetings, but straight to the point.
"Where is my master? Tell me, are the rumors in the newspapers true?"
"Oh my God! Why don't you answer me? Is my master really assassinated?"
"Tell me where the master is...I...I want to keep a vigil for the master, and I want to pay tribute to the master!"
Prince Carl looked at the emotional Emperor Tongzhi and said awkwardly, "Your Majesty, please don't get excited. This matter is a long story and cannot be explained clearly on the dock!"
"Today you will have a night's rest at the palace in Hamburg. Tomorrow we will go to Berlin together..."
"That's enough. All I can think about now is my master's voice and smile. I can't care about other things. I have to see my master's body..." At this point, Zai Chun's eyes turned red and tears fell.
Prince Carl couldn't tell whether Emperor Tongzhi was sincere or fake. He could only sigh with the little emperor, "Your Majesty, don't be sad yet. I think the latest news will be here soon..."
Just as he said this, there was a sudden commotion at the end of the long street. From the end of the alley, which was composed of more than 100,000 people, strange sounds came like a sea wave.
"What happened?" People at the welcoming venue asked involuntarily.
Suddenly, on the roof of a house closest to the welcome venue, a newsboy appeared. "Extra number! Extra number! The head of state of the East miraculously came back to life!"
"The head of state of the East is not dead. The head of state used a clever trick to eradicate the largest French spy network in Bavaria!"
"Extra number! Extra number..."
A handful of flyers fell from the sky like butterflies. After a brief moment of astonishment, people quickly became agitated. They jumped to grab the flyers in the sky, and each of them opened their eyes wide and looked at the words above in disbelief.
"Oh God! A miracle happened!"
"Long live! The head of state is not dead! Long live..."
Now the atmosphere was completely reversed, from the previous depression to a city-wide carnival! People shouted long live and hugged each other. The atmosphere was incredibly hot.
Zai Chun was embarrassed now. The emotions that had just been brewing had to be brewed again at this moment. The tears had just been held back, and now they had to be held back again.
He held a leaflet, and his expression changed for three seconds as if he was constipated. Finally, he burst out laughing, "Great! I just told you that nothing will happen to you if your master is lucky!"
"You dog slaves, who said the master was dead before? Go down and slap him..."
How could Prince Carl not see through this little trick, but he couldn't tell the truth. He smiled and made a few smooth remarks, and then accompanied Emperor Tongzhi on the open carriage to accept the cheers of the people in the city amidst the sound of salutes.
Flowers were scattered from the buildings at both ends of the street, forming a shower of petals. People on both sides of the road shouted long live and waved their arms to Emperor Tongzhi.
Every hundred meters there was a small band playing welcome music repeatedly, and the sturdy Prussian cavalry escorted the long queue of carriages as far as the eye could see.
Zai Chun smiled and waved to the crowd, and the smile on his face became a little stiff.
"I really didn't expect that he didn't die... Isn't this life too harsh? Even the French Emperor couldn't defeat him! How can I deal with such a person in the future?"
"And these stupid people, when they first welcomed me, they were all weak, but now they are all smiling! Am I not as good as an emperor as a head of state?"
Emperor Tongzhi definitely had some signs of schizophrenia. His sadness at the news of his master's death was truly heartfelt. He once shed tears all night long and missed the days and nights he spent with his master.
But today, when he saw everything in front of him, his emotions reversed so quickly that it was unimaginable.
At this moment, Emperor Tongzhi was filled with resentment. He resented Xiao Letian for taking away the glory that belonged to him, and even more resented the master's life for being so hard!
The ancient Chinese believed in fate, feng shui and the like. Xiao Le's stubborn face could not defeat Napoleon III, so Zai Chunke had to think about it.
Can I also defeat my master?
"Damn it, if I had known this earlier, I might as well have stayed in London and negotiated terms with the British!"
"When I came to Prussia and had to suffer under Xiao Letian's halo, when will this day end!"
However, he cursed in his heart, but it could not be reflected on his face at all. Instead, he needed to respond more enthusiastically to the Prussian people.
"Your Highness, I wonder where my master is now and when I can see him... I haven't paid my respects to my master for a long time. It's really unfilial for me as an apprentice!"
Prince Carl smiled slightly, "You will be able to see it when you arrive in Berlin... But now the head of state is dealing with a series of matters related to the war against France. I am afraid that he can only participate in a small part of your welcome ceremonies!"
"Oh... that's what it should be. State affairs are the most important thing! State affairs are the most important thing! I don't know... I don't know, has the time for the war against France been set?"
