Chapter 2370 Blocking the Door One

"Grand Duke Albrecht, long time no see, how have you been recently?" Outside the Palace of Sanssouci, Crown Prince Christian of the Kingdom of Saxony ran into Duke Albrecht who came, so he took the initiative to get out of the car and greeted him. It is said that the status of a general duke is not comparable to that of the heir to the kingdom, but this duke is the real duke of the Kingdom of Württemberg and has been serving as a high-level commander in the war. No matter in terms of seniority or status, he is not the current Crown Prince Christian. It was comparable, and judging from the opponent's posture, the opponent seemed to be waiting for him. Therefore, the crown prince could only come down to greet him first.

"Everything is fine, thank you. I will send my greetings to the King of Saxony when I go back." Duke Albrecht of Württemberg walked up and said to Crown Prince Christian in a friendly manner. Then he motioned for the young crown prince to follow him, while the guards around him kept the others away.

"Is it a little nervous to attend today's meeting?" Albrecht said, looking at the young crown prince who was born in 1893 and is only 22 years old. (The crown prince was born on the 31st of the month....)

"There are some. This is the first time I have participated in such an important meeting." Crown Prince Christian said respectfully. The Crown Prince respects Duke Albrecht very much. Not only because of his outstanding record, but also because of his kindness to himself and the Kingdom of Saxony.

"Relax, as the future king, you will have to face this day sooner or later, it's just that you came a little earlier, this can be regarded as a kind of experience." The Duke said relaxedly.

"So, Your Excellency, what should I do?" Crown Prince Christian asked.

"His Majesty Augusta III should have sent you a telegram, right?" the Duke asked with great interest.

"Yes, but the telegram is very short, the content is to ensure the dignity of the kingdom, let it take its course." The crown prince hesitated for a while, and told the Duke the content of the telegram.

"Hehe, the King of Saxony is still as cautious as ever." The Duke said with a smile. "Your father is right. In this incident, you only need to ensure the dignity of the kingdom. You are still a little lion with not sharp teeth. Just let them see your temperament and spirit. Don't Let the grand dukes and important ministers of the empire look down on you, the first impression is very important, and in the future, you will have to deal with them frequently."

"However, remember that you can let nature take its course today, but it doesn't mean you can continue to let nature take its course in the future. This time, Bavaria and Württemberg helped you carry it, but one day, you need to face it yourself. Some things. Everything is a struggle, and Saxony has been silent for a long time. So that some people have forgotten that Saxony is a kingdom." The Duke said earnestly.

"Your Excellency the Duke..." Just as Christian was about to speak, the Duke on the opposite side made a quiet gesture. Signal Christian to listen to him.

"I know what you want to say. You want to say that Saxony is not another kingdom. In terms of area and power, it is less than half of the Kingdom of Württemberg, so it is more inclined to protect itself. Even, some people, even yours Father, at some point, we hope that Bavaria will stand in front of us. We all know this and understand it. Back then, whether it was the issue of the title of Kaiser or the issue of the Grand Duchy of Baden becoming a kingdom, we were the ones who fought against each other. In the front. We didn't pull you in at that time, we took the risk, and you enjoyed the benefits." The Duke said with a sigh.

(The issue of the Kaiser title is whether the Kaiser was the emperor of Germany or the German emperor. The former is a national concept, and the latter is a national concept, which represents absolute rule over other kingdoms.

On this issue, Bavaria and Württemberg firmly opposed it, and the Kaiser failed. The former Grand Duke of Baden was the son-in-law of William I. Originally, the Kaiser planned to make Baden a kingdom, but the two kingdoms were also disturbed! )

"I..." Christian's face changed, and he was about to say something when the Duke patted his shoulder again and continued.

"We understand the situation of Saxony at that time, so we have no complaints about your country's behavior. In the past 20 years, with the prosperity of Bavaria, we have also developed, and the benefits that can be given to the Kingdom of Saxony are not less, right? And At the critical moment, Bavaria also helped your country stabilize the situation. All this without asking for anything in return.”

"Because for hundreds of years, the states in central Germany have supported each other. This is our historical friendship, which has been firmly condensed in our blood. (Before Austria and Prussia competed for the hegemony, Bavaria was still very important to the surrounding states. It's more caring.)"

"We can understand all the actions of your country before, but now, when Prussia has weakened, Saxony's pressure from the north has been reduced, huge gains have been made in the war, and even the grand duchies have begun to show their existence, if Saxony If you still choose to back down, it is not wise, but cowardly. Just imagine, if a kingdom’s performance in the political economy and military of the empire is not as good as that of a grand duchy, then how can you gain the respect of the other party? Why?” Al Grand Duke Brecht said with some excitement. So much so that it attracted the attention of the Prussian soldiers outside the palace next to it.

"Your Excellency, you'd better pay attention, this is in front of the Kaiser's house..." Christian couldn't help shivering, he felt that the senior opposite was a little too aggressive.

"It's okay, let them see it, and then tell William. It's no big deal." The Duke glanced at the Prussian soldiers on the opposite side. "They dared to disregard the status and dignity of the Kingdom of Saxony yesterday, so what if we cause them some trouble today? Today we will wait here and block in front of their door, whether it is the Grand Duke of Baden, the Grand Duke of Oldenburg, Or Holweg or Little Moltke, they are all waiting here, we wait for Crown Prince Ruprecht to come together, and then the seven of us will go in together! That's it!"

That's right, this time Grand Duke Albrecht came to find trouble, as William II's revenge for ignoring the Kingdom of Saxony! Ruprecht asked Wilhelm II to invite the Kingdom of Saxony, who agreed, but the matter is not over! As the Crown Prince said, the Kingdom of Saxony is a kingdom after all. As an ally of Ruprecht, the Crown Prince has the obligation and necessity to help Saxony save this face. That's why today's incident happened!
