Chapter 2418 Meet One

After all, Gustav V came to Germany in the name of a private visit, so the reception in Germany should not be too formal, so Gustav V chose to stay at the Grand Duke of Baden's manor in Berlin . But this time, Karl Halma Branting was relieved that the Germans did not seem to intend to embarrass himself, a member of the government. If the Grand Duke of Baden insisted on not arranging a residence for him, then Branting would really Can only find a hotel! After all, Gustav V was visiting relatives and friends, and the Grand Duke of Baden naturally has the right to refuse some people!

After staying in Baden Manor for a few days, both the host and the guest did not do anything to make Blanting feel dissatisfied. They just participated in various banquets, salons and hunting. Completely aristocratic entertainment, without talking about any sensitive political issues, which made Branting very satisfied, and enjoyed it, yes, you read that right, although his political views are very close to the people, but Karl Yalmar . Branting's family background is also aristocratic! It is also very good at these things for nobles.

But the comfortable life these days will not let him relax his vigilance. Because, this time, the most important figure on the German side has not yet come out! Everyone knows that in the list of people Gustav V met, the Crown Prince from Bavaria, the Imperial Marshal of the German Empire, and the Regent of the Austro-Hungarian Empire are the most difficult to deal with! His illustrious martial arts and political skills have already spread throughout the entire European high-level. Facing such an opponent, Branting dare not be careless!

However, the subsequent meeting made Branting a little surprised. When Crown Prince Ruprecht and the Grand Duke of Baden met with the Swedish delegation, it was not at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs or some formal occasions, but directly chose the Grand Duke of Baden. private house. Moreover, the atmosphere of the talks was very relaxed, without the seriousness of general political negotiations. A large number of nobles from within the German Empire were invited. More like a salon. What is even more unexpected is that this time, after Prince Ruprecht met the Swedes, the first thing he talked about was not Gustav V but himself!

"Mr. Branting seems very nervous." After a simple greeting, Ruprecht looked with interest at this man who had served as Prime Minister of Sweden three times in history and won the Nobel Peace Prize. The crown prince is very clear that if you want to cooperate with Sweden in the future, you can bypass Gustav V, but you must never bypass this person in front of you. This person is what he must win! Only in this way can the series of plans behind him be launched!

"This is the first time I have met a Reichsmarshal of the German Empire. Before the meeting, I thought that you had both the wisdom and political skills of Prime Minister Bismarck and the military talent of the old Marshal Moltke. You should be The symbol of iron and blood in the new era of the German Empire, but now it seems that you are a little different. I am just a little curious." Karl Halma Blanting said carefully.

"Actually, I'm also a little curious." The crown prince looked at Branting and said, "It stands to reason that this time, His Majesty Gustav V came to Germany just to visit his relatives and friends. And you, as a Members of Parliament have also come here, I want to know, are you here to visit friends or provide services? Or is there any other purpose?"

"This..." Branting was a little speechless. His identity was indeed a little embarrassing. First, he was not a member of the Swedish royal family, so the so-called visiting relatives was impossible to talk about. Second, although he is a government official, he is only a member of parliament, not a member of the administrative system, so the so-called services and staff have little to do with him! Obviously, everyone here knows that his purpose is to restrict Gustav V, but they will not say it directly. After all, Gustav V is the king of Sweden and a symbol of the country. It is a bit embarrassing to say that the government still monitors relatives.

Especially so far, Gustav V has not done anything overstepping, just visiting relatives….

Branting certainly cannot accuse Crown Prince Ruprecht for the same reason. The reason is very simple. Crown Prince Ruprecht can attend this salon as a friend of the Grand Duke of Baden. But could Branting claim to be a friend of Gustav V? Certainly not possible!

"Sure enough." Branting said anxiously in his heart. In his opinion, the crown prince had already made a move, and explained in a very euphemistic way that this was a gathering of nobles, which was private and not public. Well, can you, a redundant person, avoid it for a while?

Branting knew that if the Grand Duke of Baden and Crown Prince Ruprecht asked Branting to leave at this time with the reason of refusing outsiders at a private party, he really had no good excuse! Unless he intends to be shameless and insist that the government requires him to "accompany" the king!

And if he said this, let alone brushing the other party's face, Sweden would offend two high-ranking figures in Germany for no reason. Your own political path may be coming to an end! Sweden really doesn't like Germany very much, but the power of Germany requires Sweden to respect it! Especially in this situation, the German side did not make any political demands, and it was in the name of a private party. If Branting persists, once the relationship between Germany and Sweden deteriorates, then he must be blamed of…….

"I understand the reason and purpose of Mr. Branting's appearance here, but His Royal Highness Gustav's face must be taken care of, don't you think?" the crown prince said leisurely. If you scold your own king, the Swedish government can forcibly arrange a nail for Gustav, but in the eyes of outsiders, the king is the dignity of Sweden, and this face must be taken care of, that's right!

"Do you think this will work? It must not be easy for the Grand Duke of Baden to invite so many German nobles here from his busy schedule this time. Let His Majesty Gustav V have a pleasant evening, okay? I How about having a chat with you?" the crown prince said.

"Well, your choice is really beyond my expectation." Branting wiped his cold sweat and said, he really couldn't figure it out, seeing that the crown prince could already exclude himself from this meeting , Why did he turn around and choose to be out with himself? It shouldn't be! Of course, although it was unexpected, since the crown prince is willing to talk to him, let's talk about it! Anyway, I am a member of parliament! Can't make any decisions!

"Okay, since that's the case, it's better to obey than to be respectful." Branting said immediately.
