Reborn as a small European country

Chapter 78

PS: Thank you Xia Tian for your tip.

christmas night

When the phone rang, Joseph was a little puzzled. This was an internal call. It would be impossible to call here without the review of the guards. Could it be that James or the cabinet has something to do?

But the cabinet meeting has just ended, and it is estimated that the group of cabinet members are still in awe of the atomic bomb, how could they call themselves at this time, thinking about these Joseph picked up the phone.

"Merry Christmas, Joseph."

"You too, Kate."

When the familiar voice came from the microphone, Joseph couldn't help but smiled knowingly, complaining that the guards didn't come to report. It was obvious that they were all guessing whether Kate would be Nord's princess in the future.

"Christmas is so boring this year! I don't even know who to hang out with."

It is rare for Kate to show her attitude as a little daughter. Joseph chuckled and thought about Kate's expression on the other side of the microphone. Is it a look of confusion or hesitation, is she lying on the bed or lying on the desk?
"Candice! Aren't you good friends with her?"

Candice is the noble lady that Joseph met at the auction house banquet. Although the family is a little worse than Kate, it is not too far behind, an earl family in Edinburgh.

"I'll be in Edinburgh for Christmas, and I won't be looking for her even in London. She has too many friends to hang out with."

The main reason is that Kate was too proud in the past, and her peers didn't like her very much. Only a few people were willing to play with her, which is normal. After all, only Kate and a few of her peers inherited the title.

"What are you doing now?" It can be seen that Kate is really bored, otherwise she would not have asked such a question, but Joseph's answer left Kate quite speechless: "I just attended a cabinet meeting to discuss how to force the United States to compromise and make concessions. .”

No one will take this sentence as the truth. Although Kate has always believed that Britain is no worse than the United States, in fact, he is very clear about the strength of the United States. Even the British government dare not say these words easily, and now The person who said this was the Grand Duke of a small country whose territory and population are less than [-]% of the United States...

Kate didn't believe Joseph and there was nothing she could do. After playing for a while, the two parties hung up the phone. Kate was still a bit old!Otherwise, it is definitely the best candidate for the princess.

Open the window, the palace is at the highest point of the entire Nord, where you can completely overlook the entire Nord Principality, because of Christmas, the Nord Principality is brightly lit at this time, and the streets are also shining with beautiful neon lights.

"Your Highness, do you want to prepare some food?"

Because of the cabinet meeting, Joseph ate dinner relatively early. It was already past nine o'clock. Marceau estimated that Joseph was already a little hungry, so he asked Joanna to come over and ask.

"Joanna, about your mother..."

"I'm fine, Your Highness."

Turning around, looking at Joanna's haggard face, Joseph felt that she had grown a lot, but the price of this growth was a bit high, at least Joseph couldn't bear to say more.

On the eve of going to Japan, Joanna's mother was seriously ill. Because of the rebellion, the medical treatment was not up to date, so Joanna's mother left within a few days after the rebellion.After all, Joanna was Joseph's personal maid, and the housekeeper Abner even arranged for someone to go there that day.

"Prepare more! You sit down and eat together."

"Thanks, but I can't do that."

It can be seen that she has really grown up, and the word "rules" has gradually come to understand. Joseph also waved his hand reluctantly to signal her to prepare food.

Joanna's mother was suffering from an infectious disease. According to the investigation by the Ministry of Health, the result should be a disease passed from Eastern Europe or Germany. For this reason, the Principality of Nord even issued an order for the general medical examination.

After all, it was supper, and even Joseph with his identity couldn't eat anything good. It was very hot outside tonight, but Joseph was in no mood to go out for fun.

At the same time, the Fox family in England, when Kate’s uncle Abbott learned about Kate and Joseph in London, couldn’t help becoming impatient. The main money-making projects of the Fox family are now with the Audi agency. Now the relationship between Kate and Joseph ...

"What do we do now, Kate will be graduating in two years time, there is no reason for us to prevent her from getting involved in the family business."

The person Abbott is talking to is a distant cousin of his. Abbott himself is very capable, but today it is all thanks to the help of this distant cousin. Even now, 80.00% of Fox’s business is from that distant cousin. Brother decides.

"There is no princess in the Principality of Nord."

The distant cousin did not directly answer Abbott's words, but said such a seemingly completely irrelevant topic, but just one sentence made Abbott understand what he wanted to express, but then Abbott shook his head.

"The Grand Duke Nord is only nine years old this year, and the age gap between him and Kate is a bit big."

"It's because of the large age gap between them that we have room for manipulation. Kate is not engaged yet, right?"

A word that awakened the dreamer, the original meaning of the words is here, Abt looked at his distant cousin in surprise, he did not expect the other party to make such a trick.

"You mean we help Kate find a fiancé as soon as possible?"

"It's better to be honest and don't have much background." At this time, Abbott's distant cousin still didn't forget to add that poor Kate was counted by them like a cargo.

"I'm afraid Kate won't agree."

"As long as Joseph doesn't get involved, everything is fine. If he really wants to take care of this matter, then we can back down and sell a favor to Joseph."

Wealth is good but favors are hard to repay. Even if Joseph knew that all of this was calculated by Abt, he still had to hold his nose and admit it at that time.

"Then let's handle this matter as soon as possible, and help me invite the Earl of Liverpool and the Duke of Hollis. They seem to have a very close relationship with the Grand Joseph of Nord."

"That Nord Prime Minister James..."

After all, the Fox family is one of the important agents of Audi, so Abt has also met James a few times, and has some friendship. Abt's distant cousin thinks that such a thing should use all his contacts .

"The situation in the Principality of Nord is a bit complicated. Prime Minister James doesn't have much say in Joseph, especially when it comes to things like this."

"But what if we help His Excellency Grand Duke Joseph find a suitable concubine? A concubine with the same age, status, and status."

The words of the distant cousin made Abbott's eyes brighten. Indeed, James and his group of Nord veterans didn't desperately beg Joseph to agree to this in-law?

Although in this way he may lose the chance to be married to the Nord royal family, but that may not be a good thing for Abt himself. After all, the first thing Kate took power would not be to thank his uncle for his care for many years.

"It's up to you to do this. Contact an old Nord official like James."

Abt's distant cousin nodded to indicate that he knew what to do. He was actually the one who cared the most. After all, he was not a member of the Fox family. He must leave when Kate took over.
