Hidden Dragon in Qing Dynasty

Under the bitter advice of Xiao Letian and the other old friends, the manly Wang Huaiyuan finally calmed down a little and said while sipping his hot tea.

From today onwards, I will no longer care about Fang Guan, alright? "This woman is a chili. I can't afford to offend her …"

"But speaking of Bavaria, I have to ask the Head of State, are you going there for business? Or do you want to do some private things? " Director Wang suddenly asked.

"What do you mean? What personal business do I have now? Do I have any private business in Europe? Of course I'm going to see Ludwig II! "

"Don't lie to us, don't you know? Austro-Hungarian Empire, the Queen of Austro-Hungarian Empire, returned to his hometown ten days ago and he is currently in Bavaria! "

Xiao Letian was startled at that time: "What did you say, Princess Cissie went back to her parents' home?"

Princess Cissie's hometown was indeed in the Bavaria, in the beautiful Wah Hao Valley. This was a enchanting scene on the Danube River, and also a famous wine production area. On both sides of the river, there were castles full of magical colors, ancient towns and villages, and vineyards that rose and fell continuously. It was quiet and full of meaning.

The Scholar's Castle was the place where the Princess Cissie lived happily as a child. The castle was built on a huge rock on the Danube, and from here it was possible to look down and see the beauty of the valley.

The princess' childhood was still very happy, but until she became the wife of the Austria's emperor, his happy days had finally come to an end.

The tedious and harsh courtesies of the court, the vile and difficult mother-in-law, the internal and external troubles of the empire … Every single one of them here had caused the Princess Cissie to suffer greatly.

As a result, she spent the rest of her life on tourism in Princess Cissie, leaving her traces in all the countries of Europe. And Europe does not have China's very strict rules of three from four, and no one limits women to travel to their parents' homes.

As long as Princess Cissie was happy, she could freely return to Bavaria and return to her childhood home.

But Xiao Letian never thought that on the eve of the Franco-Prussian War, when Princess Cissie wasn't having a good time in Europe, she would actually come all the way here. Her plan was worth pondering over.

"It shouldn't be? Princess Cissie told me before that she wanted to go to Spain, why would she change her plans? " Xiao Letian muttered.

The surrounding men looked at Xiao Letian with that gaze that all men understood, and after a round of boos, they said, "Oh … So Princess Cissie is going to Spain … Even the Queen of England doesn't know about this, right? "Why do you know so much, Führer?"

Hearing this group of people teasing him, Xiao Letian's old face started to turn slightly red, "No one is allowed to speak such nonsense, Princess Cissie and I are purely male and female friends! If anyone talks too much, I'll send him to Siberia! "

Hearing Xiao Letian's vicious threats, the surrounding people did not dare to laugh even if they wanted to. In the end, it was Sima Yun who came out to smooth things over.

"Let's get down to business. Don't keep talking about useless things around the Führer. Our main mission this time is to see Bavaria's King Ludwig II. Before the talks begin, let the head introduce us to this mad king! "

Xiao Letian took out a photo from a thick kraft paper folder. The photo was of a young Ludwig II.

"This is Ludwig II. He is only twenty-four years old this year and is the king of the Bavaria. This guy has a series of funny nicknames in Europe. "

"Some people said that he was the King of Mad Ludwig II, and others said that he was the king of fantasies that had sunk deep into the fairytale world. And later on, others called him the King of Swans …"

"What the hell?" The Swan King? " Yepingtai and Bing Tai Lang were unable to understand the meaning of this nickname and asked closely, "Does he like to hunt? Do you like to kill swans, or does he like to eat roasted swan meat? "

"Stop talking nonsense. When we go back to Munich and talk about this, you won't have to be afraid of being laughed at by others. The name "Swan King" is mainly due to the palace he is currently building, which is called New Swan Castle! "

"Ludwig II's father left him a palace called Old Swan Castle. It's located on top of the Alps, in the southwest of Munich.

"But this son obviously thinks that the layout of the old palace is too small. He spent a lot of money and chose a beautiful place near the old Swan Castle to build his own New Swan Castle!" That's how the nickname of the Swan King came about. "

Luo Huo flipped through the folder, and surprisingly saw the picture of the New Swan Castle that was being built. Looking at the gorgeous palace built on top of the mountain peak, Luo Huo sighed as he shook his head.

"How pitiful, why did the Kingdom of Bavaria get a king who doesn't understand politics? In this era of great changes in the world, you actually have the money to build palaces? "

"How many factories are there in your country? How much is the total mileage of the railway? So what if we're building an army? All of these things are indifferent and uninvested, but he has the free money to build himself gorgeous palaces. In my opinion, this brat is also the ruler of a dead nation! "

Xiao Letian then threw over the picture of the Old Swan Castle, saying, "Whether he is the ruler of a dead nation or not, it is still hard to say. However, what makes people curious is that this king who does not understand politics received the support of the people of the Bavaria. We want to convince Bavaria to put his all into fighting against France. This crazy king will not be able to get away with it. "

"Although the Bavaria and Prussia have signed an attack and defense alliance, in the event of a war, the Bavaria has the obligation to send troops to support Prussia in battle!"

"But what Prime Minister Bismark and I are afraid of is that this crazy king will not help at that time! The thing I am afraid of is that he will be disobedient and fight alongside us on the surface. At that time, we will be in trouble if we go easy on him on the battlefield! "

"Also, even if Ludwig II doesn't dare to find trouble for us on the battlefield, if he is determined not to go along with Prussia and unite the country, it would be very difficult for us to merge with him!"

"Bismark can't possibly carry a few hundred thousand troops to attack, and forcibly annex all his brothers from the same race? By then, Prussia would be the enemy of all Europe! What we need to do now is to let the people of the Bavaria and his king willingly become one with the future German Empire. "

"This is the only way to guarantee our victory!"

Just then, Sima Yun who was rummaging through the documents suddenly took out a piece of paper, and muttered with a smile yet not a smile.

"Interesting, really interesting! Everyone, look at this information. Because of his young and handsome appearance, Ludwig II gained the love and respect of a large number of people in the Bavaria. "But all the people who love the king have a deep worry …"

"When will the king bring them a new crown prince? Everyone is worried about the king's fertility, because until now he hasn't shown any interest in women! "

"Holy shit!" This bro actually doesn't like women. And look here, Princess Cissie is actually her cousin! The king had only maintained the best friendship with the Princess Cissie. He doesn't care about any other woman! "

"Hahaha, after all this talk, this king is actually the love rival of our leader, hahaha!"
