Chapter 2393： salon (1/2)
”His Royal Highness, this is a letter from the palace.” Earl Schelling sent a gilded letter to Ruprecht. After checking and confirming that no one opened it, the attendant helped the crown prince take out the letter.
”Interesting.” After reading the letter, Ruprecht rejected the others first, and then handed the letter to Earl Schelling.
”Prince Albert and Prince Baden wanted me to attend a salon before leaving Berlin. They also invited the Duke of Albrecht and the Crown Prince of Saxony. The theme of this salon is Europe,” the crown prince said.
”Europe?” Count Schelling frowned slightly. ”His Royal Highness, when we finally signed the treaty with the Allied Powers, I suddenly felt a sense of loss. If we have been thinking about how to deal with the British, French and Russians for more than ten years. Then now , The old enemy has fallen, and looking around the whole Europe, there is no opponent worthy of a German battle. I am a little at a loss.”
”Hehe, do you feel that we have lost our goal? It is very good to have this kind of thought, at least better than those arrogant people. The empire is now full of impetuous emotions. This emotion is very bad, but fortunately This time, the Kaiser seemed to realize something. He allowed Prince Albert and Prince Baden to invite me to participate in this salon, which shows that his thinking is different from that of most hot-headed people. Like our crown prince, he is addicted all day long. In victory and enjoyment, I despise it,” Ruprecht said.
”His Royal Highness, this is what I am worried about. This time the salon, the heirs of the major nations have arrived. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a formal meeting. However, the crown prince alone is missing, as well as the crown prince’s in-laws. The Den Bosch family, the meaning of this is very abnormal,” said Earl Schelling.
”This is not something we can care about now. If there is no accident, the Kaiser can stay on the throne for more than 20 years. Now is not the time to discuss this issue.” The crown prince said.
”Then are you going or not?” Earl Schelling asked.
”Of course I went, and I wrote a letter to Prince Albert, saying that if I can, I hope Mr. Buhler can participate this time.” Ruprecht thought for a while and said.
”This, I don't think anyone in the meeting has a good impression of him except you. His Majesty the Emperor may not be satisfied.” Earl Schelling thought for a while and said.
”However, it saves us a lot of trouble.” Ruprecht said with a smile. How should I put it, in the German aristocratic circle, many things are discussed in similar salons or gatherings. Maybe the Kaiser let Prince Albert preside over this salon may have a special purpose, maybe no purpose. However, a group of top aristocrats in the German Empire gathered together, and instead they excluded the crown prince. The crown prince said, this salon did not talk about anything, does Prince William believe it? I definitely don't believe it, the crown prince would definitely wonder if such a group of people intend to consider something extraordinary? Did they reach an agreement? Or is it possible that his father might send a signal to beat himself?
