Chapter six hundred and ninety fourth no way to start
"As for the matter of Princess Charlotte, I have reported to His Majesty the King. Our Majesty is very angry about the behavior of the Duke of York. His Majesty the King has ordered a reprimand to the Duke of York. I believe that the Duke of York and Duchess Charlotte will treat each other as guests."
of!"
After speaking, Little Pete picked up the tea cup on the coffee table in front of him and took a sip. After saying so many words, Little Pete was really thirsty.
While Little Pete was drinking tea, Dwork said to Little Pete:
"There are really too many places where our country needs to use troops. You should understand that our country has not withdrawn its troops from the city of Paris. It already attaches great importance to your country. Our country has paid so many casualties and has only occupied half of the Netherlands so far.
Hanover, which your country promised to our country, has not been handed over for a long time. Our Majesty has decided that before your country has handed over the Hanover area, our country will not send any additional troops to the city of Paris!"
Hearing Dwock mention Hanover, little Pete's brows wrinkled slightly.
Britain had indeed promised Prussia that as long as Prussia helped Britain occupy northern France, Britain would cede Hanover to the Prussians.
However, due to the huge controversy in the UK, so far there has been no consensus among the British high-level leaders on whether to cede Hanover. In this case, Peter desperately hoped that the Prussians would forget Hanover.
But how could Prussia forget Hanover! As long as Hanover is included in the territory ruled by Prussia, it means that Prussia unified the Holy Roman Empire. This significance to William is self-evident.
"About Hanover. This, Lord Dwork. You also know that the royal family of our country originated from Hanover. The whole kingdom still has great feelings for Hanover...
...!"
Hearing the excuse from Little Pete, Dwork immediately said:
"I can understand your country's feelings towards Hanover, but please don't forget that in exchange for our country continuing to send troops, your country brought Hanover out. This is clearly stated in the secret agreement between the two countries.
Chu, if your country wants to turn its back on you, then I think Prussia will never agree!"
Dwork's toughness gave Little Pete a headache.
Hanover is nothing compared to the vast territory of northern France, but as Peter Jr. said, Hanover is the birthplace of the British royal family. There are many ministers from Hanover among the top British officials, and these people have feelings for Hanover.
Nature is extremely strong.
Of course, the reason why the British proposed Hanover was just to use the procrastination strategy. The British senior officials believed that as long as the Prussians fought this war, they would be able to find ways to continue to delay the Prussians.
But now, what Dwork said was very clear, that is, Prussia would not send any reinforcements to Hanover. This situation really made little Peter feel a little tricky.
Seeing that Little Pete was silent, Dwork said again in a more serious tone:
"This month, no matter what the war situation is, your country must hand over Hanover. Otherwise, our country has the right to consider the sincerity of your alliance. I also heard that Spain is preparing to negotiate peace with your country. I hope that the Prime Minister can understand. In order to maintain the combat effectiveness of the alliance,
, your two countries have also reached an agreement, prohibiting any country from making peace with an enemy country alone without the unanimous consent of allied countries!
I think the Prime Minister who signed the agreement has not forgotten this!"
As Dworko's words fell, little Pete looked at Dworko beside him, but he felt disgusted no matter how he looked at him.
The meaning of Dwork's words was nothing more than to take advantage of Spain. At this time, little Peter felt a little regretful about the news that he had walked around London to talk about the Spanish peace talks in order to improve the morale of the army.
But things are already like this, and it is obviously impossible to undo it.
Of course, for politicians like Peter Jr., they are not generally thick-skinned. Although Peter is only thirty-three years old this year, his nine years as prime minister have long tempered his face to be invulnerable to fire and water.
"Of course, as a party to the agreement, our country has never thought of negotiating peace with the enemy regardless of the feelings of its allies! As a member of the coalition, Prussia naturally has the right to know.
It's just that I was a little too busy before, so I'm sorry that I forgot to rule your country!
The Spaniards did convey their request for peace to our country, but whether to negotiate peace with the Spaniards still requires negotiation among the three countries in our alliance. Since the ambassador’s country mentioned it, next week, I will invite the Dutch Ambassador to come over and let the three countries communicate their views.
!”
After Little Pete finished speaking, Dwock stood up and said goodbye to Little Pete when he heard that he wanted an answer.
After Dwork left, Little Pete's face suddenly became so gloomy that he could drip water.
William stayed with Du Li for five days. During these five days, as soon as Du Li woke up, William would definitely be by her side.
At the same time, William also issued a gag order to everyone around Du Li, prohibiting everyone from mentioning the word "child" around Du Li.
In this way, under William's careful care, Du Li's health improved a lot, and seeing William busy beside her, a warm smile appeared on Du Li's face.
For Du Li, she was very satisfied that William could accompany her for five days. William was the king of Prussia, and there were countless things that needed to be decided by him every day. But now, for himself, William could put aside all those things.
To one side, this point undoubtedly moved Du Li very much.
In fact, for William, this is not his compensation for Du Li. William was raised in Hans's home since he was a child. It was Hans's upbringing that gave William a carefree childhood, and Hans
The family's two children, Du Li and Carlo, have grown up with William.
William was sent to Hans' home when he was more than one year old. Du Li said that William was the one who watched him grow up, which is absolutely true.
"Your Majesty, let others do these chores. You go and do your work!"
Lying on the hospital bed, Du Li's face was still a little pale, but much better than a few days ago. At this moment, in Du Li's room, William was clumsily stirring the medicinal soup.
"It's okay. There's no need to let others do such a small thing. Besides, I'd be a little worried if it passed through other people's hands!"
As he spoke, William took a sip of the temperature with a spoon and found that the temperature was just right. He walked to Du Li's bedside with the bowl in hand and motioned for Du Li to open her mouth.
Seeing William's appearance, Du Li's tears leaked out of her eyes again.
"Okay, Du Li, by the way, I have some good news for you. The doctor said that if nothing happens to you now, you only need to recuperate for another week before you can go to the ground!"
As he spoke, William also had a smile on his lips.
In fact, although William is smiling on his face, he is in unusual pain in his heart. Because Du Li's lungs were seriously injured, Du Li will not be able to exercise vigorously in the future, which means that the lively and lovely Du Li will gradually move away from William.
.
Looking at the sick-looking Du Li, William secretly vowed in his heart that he must make that ignorant guy taste the taste of life being worse than death!
While Du Li was ill, Karina and Lilissa also rushed to Parets. Except Anna did not come because she wanted to avoid suspicion.
After William coaxed Du Li to sleep, he came to Karina and Lilissa
"Du Li has gotten better these days. If you are fine, go back first! I haven't taken care of you these days because of Du Li's affairs, Karina, Lilissa. Don't you blame me?"
Hearing William's words, Lilissa, who had always been well-behaved, shook her head. But Karina said:
"Your Majesty, you are a smart person. I don't need to say more about what happened this time. You must understand that this is definitely not an accident. There are only a few people in Prussia who can attack Du Li. This time it is Du Li.
There’s no guarantee that it won’t be me or Karina next time, so......................"
William waved his hand and interrupted Karina and said:
"I understand what you are going to say. I have already ordered this matter to be investigated to the end. I will not let anyone go. Karina, you are more stubborn. Du Li is already like this. I don't want you to
You and Lilissa also encountered some kind of danger!"
With that said, William hugged Karina into his arms.
Feeling William's embrace, Karina's tears flowed down unsatisfactorily.
"Your Majesty, I know that I am your woman, and I may never be recognized by the royal family. Even Lilissa and Du Li are like this. We don't ask for anything, we just want your love...
......."
.............................
After comforting Karina and Lilissa, William summoned Hornde, who had not been seen for several days.
"Hornde, how is the investigation going? Are there any clues?"
"Your Majesty, we have conducted a large-scale search in the past few days. Fortunately, we have found the carriage, but the driver on that carriage was killed. In this case,
The clues are short, but based on the investigation, we learned that the murderer who assassinated Her Royal Highness Du Li should be a Swiss. As for the motive of the assassination, the preliminary judgment is that it was a hired killing!"
After hearing Hornde's report, William was stunned, and then said to Hornde dissatisfied:
"I gave you all the rights. It took you five days to investigate so little. The royal family invests a lot every year, but now you can't even find an assassin. What use do I need from you!"
Seeing that William was angry, Hornde quickly knelt down and said:
"Your Majesty, this assassin was completely blank before the assassination, and most of the energy of the royal intelligence agency is focused on those ministers and nobles. We really have no way to deal with this person who seems to appear out of nowhere!"
