The Palace of Versailles commanded the world with a single document, served guests from all over the world, and all nations came to court. The influence of France extended to every country, every city, and every village in the European continent. This was something that the Roman Empire never did. It has been accumulated for thousands of years The Holy See is also far behind.
The ideology extracted by Jeanne Darc from the French Revolution was useful, and it formed an appealing force in the Conquest and the Northern War. The strength of this soft power has been spread, moistening things silently.
Some painters used majestic strokes to describe the long history of the Seine River, some musicians used passionate music to express the bravery of the French Legion, some writers praised the advancement and openness of France, and some scientists longed for the wisdom hall of the Paris Academy of Sciences to contribute to her... All of these are the terrible things about France.
People think that the great country is thinking about the same breath and the same fate, and the foundation of French rule lies in this belief.
Today's France has already surpassed the Sun King Louis XIV's year, with millions of soldiers, invincible, and the soldiers and cavalry of the entire European continent are actually in the direct or indirect integration of France.Joan of Arc can mobilize a European coalition army as long as she wants, and this military guarantee is the cornerstone of her appeal.
Hayasaka Ai implements the line of "receiving the world's weapons", so her will can make all the monarchs obey.
Thinking about it carefully, from the defense of Paris to the present, it seems that there is no European country except Eastern Europe that has not been taught a lesson. Even if it is not clear about the invasion, it will use the gunboat to gesture twice. It is obvious that France has taken the surrounding friends since Joan of Arc came to power. They all cleaned up.
Convinced, everything is easy to say.
There was no reason not to go to the summit meeting invitation of the first ruling party in France. They had to go to Paris with a complicated heart.
Two days later, when Dieng's envoy was halfway through, the situation in Paris gathered.
There are a variety of salon parties in the Palace of Versailles, and this extravagant palace specially prepared by Louis XIV for the nobles is indeed the best place for parties.The toasts were interlaced, and it was very lively.
However, the host has not been present for the time being, and the atmosphere of the party has not yet become active. Before the first ruler arrived, everyone just greeted each other casually.
The reception at this state dinner itself was part of the protocol, without having to begin with serious political topics.
Pius VII held a goblet and greeted the two middle-aged people in front of him, "Is this His Majesty William III and His Majesty Franz I? I remember the last time we met was the church coronation."
The two greeted each other with equal enthusiasm, "Your Excellency the Pope, we have relinquished the duties of kings and are no longer 'Your Majesty' as grand dukes."
"Then you don't have to call me the pope, I'm a cardinal now." Pius VII pouted.
There was an awkward silence among the three.
"Hahaha, isn't this a coincidence!"
"Cough, what a coincidence, what a coincidence."
Former Pope Pius VII, former Prussian King William III, and former Austrian King Fritz I all had the same idea in their hearts at the moment:
Why did this inexplicably turn into a meeting of Joan's defeated men? Dare everyone have been taught a lesson, and in a sense there is a common topic.
Chapter 402 Little brother can really do whatever he wants
Not to mention the embarrassing chat between the two archdukes of Prussia and Austria and Cardinal Pius VII, the power behind the three is indeed real.With the influence of the two great powers and the church, the actual territory stretches from the banks of the Rhine to the Apennine Peninsula. The fact that they can gather together represents the appeal of the host country.
Who told them that they were all defeated under Joan of Arc, and the lingering prestige is still lingering in their hearts. A piece of paper in the Palace of Versailles is the will of that person, how dare they not come!
Looking at the performance of the three, fringe allies such as Spain, Greece, and Sweden also know what they are saying:
Britain is separated from the English Channel, and its partners on land still feel at ease.
As long as Jeanne Darc didn't mean to let everyone tighten their belts to live together, then it's okay to sacrifice some interests to satisfy her. After all, this Paris already has the "big trend" of Europe and the trend cannot be violated.
When the party was getting better, the door of the central hall was slowly pushed open, and the First Consul Joan of Arc and Marshal Stacia walked out side by side.
Ai Hayasaka is wearing a black suit with a simple military uniform design, which has both the smart beauty of a girl and a mature and stable atmosphere.Asuna was wearing a white dress with a piece of tulle on her head. Her slender hand was slightly outstretched to hold the arm of Ai Hayasaka beside her, and the two walked side by side.
This scene is similar to the original Hohenzollern Castle. Ai Hayasaka played a trick, which is a signal to the general public and Austrian countries.
William III and Fritz I looked moved, but they still raised their glasses and nodded.
Pius VII also quickly signaled that he had personally witnessed the two of them having sex in St. Peter's Church.
Ai Hayasaka stepped forward, "It's been a while since I saw you, so you're welcome."
"Everything is fine."
Greetings such as "Have you eaten?" are unavoidable even in the most high-class social occasions. Ai Hayasaka made a few pleasantries before getting to the point:
"I have prepared some good wine here, are you interested in having a drink together?"
"my pleasure."
"The maid will take you there, I'll be there soon." She called a waiter.
Ai Hayasaka made it clear that she wanted to talk alone. The two old kings and the pope were not fools. They could understand the hints in Ai Hayasaka's mouth. I think the next one will be a secret room meeting that will determine the world structure. That is behind the history The part that is not humane.
Perhaps in the future there will be intelligence from journalists, fabrications from biographers, and research from historians, but none of them will be able to restore the original appearance of the talks, let alone know the game involved.
"Stiacia, the others will be handed over to you, as long as you maintain their position."
"No problem, wrap it on me."
"You only need to be present on behalf of the high-level will of France, and diplomats will accompany them in the rest of the details."
"Don't worry, I'll scare them with my arrogance at worst!" Asuna was eager to try. Since she was a child, she had dreamed of the diplomatic work described by her uncle Spencer, and now she can experience it herself.
"Take it easy and don't scare people stupid." Ai Hayasaka instructed.
She walked away without paying too much attention to it. Asuna's status in reality is not low at all. As an executive of the New Century Company, she has qualified social skills.
The biggest use of Asuna's presence is to control the place when she is not in the hall. Among the people Aisaka Hayasaka can trust, she is not only courageous and resourceful, but also able to contribute to this occasion.Just because Asuna repulsed representatives of many big companies at the bidding meeting, these foreign ambassadors would not even try to take advantage of her.
Ai Hayasaka walked to the corner of the hall with confidence, opened the door and entered a side room, which was perfect as a quiet meeting place.
Sure enough, William III, Fritz I and Pius VII had been waiting for a long time.Coupled with the seat of the First Consul of France, this small room is now enough to represent the power center of the European continent.
Today, the power that the Palace of Versailles can mobilize is no less than that of Buckingham Palace across the sea.
The younger brother can do whatever he wants.
"Britain's sanctions are looming, I think Europe should unite for further cooperation, a common currency, a common tariff, a common market standard, I think these can improve the agenda. Only when we are twisted together can we repel the British threat Outside the door." Ai Hayasaka cut to the chase.
She seized the opportunity to implement the plan while France was in full swing, not to mention the threat of Britain outside to fuel the flames. The combination of internal and external factors would not be afraid of Europe's disunity.Hayasaka Ai thought.
If you don't know how to flatter, let you see how big France's fist is.
"Since the Roman Empire, the people of Europe have longed for unity. The flames of war have made everyone tired. I think our generation should shoulder the historical responsibility to create peace."
Ai Hayasaka said grandly, "France has inherited the legacy of the Byzantine Empire, the glory of the Holy See, and the destiny of mankind. We are obliged to do so."
The three of them were noncommittal and nodded obediently.
The advantages of market unification outweigh the disadvantages. Several dynastic wars in the German region attempted to annex small states in order to form a community. Of course, wars are profitable!Now France takes the lead in this grand plan, and they are happy to see it.
Just have concerns...
"Your Excellency, there are some things that need to be discussed first." William III said cautiously, "We have no objections in the economic field. What about the text, teaching materials, and laws? Should they be unified?"
He was very disturbed. If the first ruling lion opened his mouth, Prussia would have no power to resist, and William III would become the last emperor of the subjugated country.
"No, although there is no upper limit to the cooperation of the French League, we can start with the economy first. Every family has its own difficulties. I respect your special situation. We seek common ground while reserving differences. It is good for everyone to make money and make a fortune together. Differences can be put aside for now."
Ai Hayasaka is very frank.
Pius VII smiled and said, "My lord, I am very grateful that you can understand us old bones. I think you and our successors will have young people talking about it in the future."
As expected of the old pope, what he said was impeccable!
He will not live for a few years, but Joan of Arc is only 20 years old, and she will definitely rule Europe for a long time. At that time, she will promote the unity of the world and the Pope will not see it. There are some unexpected disasters that must be blamed on the incumbent.
After the three of us died, who cares about the flood?
Hayasaka Ai winked at the three of them, "Then it's done?"
"No comment."
"Let's talk about Warsaw again. I want to draw up a joint communiqué to revisit the division of Poland. Don't mind me just using it to put pressure on the Tsar."
"Good talk, good talk."
The three of them nodded like chickens pecking at rice.
Just now they would ask more questions about their own affairs, but now they don’t even bat an eye when it comes to forming gangs and oppressing outsiders. A group of old imperialist hooligans who carve up Poland to subjugation don’t care. Let them talk about it together. Look down on people.
Chapter 403 Don't speak human words, attack them together
"Your Excellency, don't you intend to use troops against Tsarist Russia?" William III asked keenly.
早坂爱心说我当然不能明说我要把北极熊揍一顿。
So she coughed, "The people of France have won freedom and equality with their own hands. They have always cared about world peace, especially neighboring Warsaw. As the first ruler, I am obliged to listen to the voice of the people. Express warm concern about the situation. We express our deep sympathy to the Poles persecuted by Tsarist Russia, and we will help justice when necessary."
After finishing speaking, she did not forget to sigh. The compassionate expression on the girl's face really made people think that Ai Hayasaka was sympathizing with the Poles.
William III, Fritz I and Pius VII also nodded with understanding.
"Prussia has been a friendly neighbor of Poland since ancient times, and has always been concerned about the human rights situation of the Poles there. We are members of the freedom camp and must support each other. On behalf of the Prussian official, I express great concern over the Polish territory under the rule of Tsarist Russia .”
"Austria admires the Polish people's will to fight very much. We believe that Poles have the right to defend their own territory. The rule of Tsarist Russia in the local area is horrible, unequal, and an enemy of the free camp."
"The Vatican is obliged to supervise the activities of the Orthodox diocese. The people there are living in dire straits. This is not in line with the teachings of my religion, and it is even more inhumane. The Vatican condemns the illegal activities of Tsarist Russia in Poland and calls on the local people to accept Take up arms in defense of liberty."
The three sighed in unison, pouring out their worries about the future of the Poles, as if they had not participated in the partition of Warsaw in person.
Of course, this standard bureaucratic rhetoric was not in vain. The cabinet secretary faithfully recorded all this, and then it was the draft material for public release.
Humphrey's spring and autumn style of writing will ensure that the four top leaders are concerned about the country and the people. A summit meeting of this size must be handled with caution.
"Thank you for your support."
So far, Ai Hayasaka has gotten what she wanted.
To put it bluntly, this is really a matter of talking, at least at this stage, it is just a war of words, nothing more than making it easier for Dieng, who is on the front line of diplomacy, to pass the "non-aggression treaty" that was signed to be torn up.
"Your Excellency, I have a word..." the King of Prussia said, "Our country also had a share in the partition of Poland, so we have an obligation to maintain this justice."
Hayasaka Ai nodded, she spread her hands with a smile, like an old friend.
"Of course, if necessary, I will launch a coalition. I hope you can help me."
"my pleasure."
Recording this scene, the cabinet secretary pouted, thinking that the hypocrisy of these people had become a way of socializing.
Not one of them speaks "human language". It's almost impeccable. Just from this small episode of the meeting, you can know the level of the four people present. The first ruler of France, the king of Prussia, the king of Austria, and the pope don't have a fuel-efficient lamp.thought Humphrey.
If it were Louis XVI, he would have "threatened war against Tsarist Russia" one by one, and he would never have thought of such a high-end operation as diplomatic pressure.
It is true that Jeanne Darcque came to this Palace of Versailles and built it into the power center of the European continent. In this regard, the Louis family's century-old foundation was not wronged. Who will let the descendants of the Sun King not live up to it!
Do you really think that your family business for three generations will not be flattened by one dynasty!
"By the way, Your Excellency Joan of Arc, I brought a gift from Vienna this time." The flattering proposal of the King of Austria "I saw that you liked the statue of Frederick the Great when I was in Berlin. For this reason, I hired a well-known European master." Artist, how about customizing one for you?"
