When Bavaria, the Kaiser and the Parliament issued a statement to convene a meeting, almost all the states responded positively. Most of the states were the top leaders of the states such as grand dukes, dukes, and princes who came in person. Said to have this very important meaning, this is not only a meeting to share the results, but also an adjustment and coordination within the empire. In this meeting that is not the Federal Parliament, but is better than the Federal Parliament, everyone wants to get what they want.
People are a kind of social creature. At any time, gang formation will always appear, and it will not change because of the difference in people’s social status. At this point, those social groups and so-called political parties do not Essential difference. And this time? When everyone is ready to cut the cake, this kind of partying will become more obvious.
"Let’s take a good look, my child, carefully observe everyone, and then distinguish who is a friend and who is an enemy. Before, the relationship you faced was too simple, and when you really got involved in imperial politics , You will find that you are not enough.” King Ludwig III of Bavaria said to Ruprecht.
When the representatives of all parties arrived and before the meeting, the Bavarian royal family as the host would naturally arrange some events, and the banquet became the most common situation. In the banquet hall of Neuschwanstein, people of all colors waited or tasted delicious dishes. , Or get together to chat about something, and if necessary, you can also discuss some more secret things in the small halls around the banquet hall.
"His Royal Highness, I am really glad to see you in this meeting." Grand Duke Albrecht, who represented the Kingdom of Württemberg at the meeting, walked slowly to the side of King August III of Saxony and greeted the latter. .
"Your Excellency, you are polite. You and your legion have made great contributions to the empire on the Western Front. Your ability and contribution are also among the best in this generation of royal families," said Auguste III.
"If it is convenient, can we talk next door? I think we will have a lot of common language." Albrecht said. Afterwards, the Grand Duke pointed to a room next to him and said. "As you wish." The King of Saxony nodded and said.
"I've been on the front line and don't know the situation in the rear. Can Your Highness talk about your views and opinions on this incident?" Grand Duke Albrecht said. This time, the Kingdom of Württemberg is still somewhat reserved. As the third largest mountain in the empire, the Kingdom of Württemberg still has its own compelling standards. The kingdom’s industrial foundation itself is relatively good, and in this war, the kingdom itself has also paid a very high price and effort. According to the principle of paying one share, one harvest, Württemberg really has a chance to obtain a relatively large cake. Yes, and this time, the Grand Duke just came out to find friends and explore his mouth.
"Even though the crown on our head still exists, the German Empire will never go back." August III said after a moment of reflection. As the main state of South Germany, the relations between Bavaria, Württemberg and Saxony are fairly good, so some things can be said more clearly, and unlike Württemberg, the area is only more than 10,000 square kilometers. In fact, The Kingdom of Saxony, which is not stronger than the Grand Duchy of Baden, can survive this crisis. It also relies on the power of Bavaria. Since people have provided you with help, then the King of Saxony must give a certain amount of return, both face and lizi. !
In terms of face, the King of Saxony personally participated in the meeting. This is a big face. You must know that when William I became emperor in history, other kings ignored them, and none of the three kings arrived... .. This time, the King of Württemberg did not participate on the grounds of domestic affairs, but the Crown Prince and Albrecht came.
里子上, that is Saxony as Bavaria's special envoy to contact other states to deal with some problems. A friendly exchange with Württemberg, the third largest mountain in the empire, is one of the most important things! Unlike Saxony, which is almost completely attached to Bavaria this time, Württemberg has his own ideas.
"Can you make things clearer?" Albrecht said.
"From now on, the empire will enter a period of in-depth domestic adjustment. We have obtained a large amount of land, resources, and population. This will inevitably have a profound impact on the internal structure of the empire. In terms of social classes, the original After this war, the nobility can no longer provide enough talents to support the future empire. A large number of people from other social strata will enrich the government institutions. The royal family must also be more enlightened and must be capable.” August III said.
"What you said is very reasonable. Some of the dross in the nobility really need to be dealt with. The future era will pay more attention to ability rather than blood." Albrecht, as the top nobleman of the empire, naturally knows what virtue the German nobility is~ www.novelhall.com~ There is NB, so there must be dross. They are like malignant tumors attached to each royal family. If they are removed, they will be painful, and if they are not removed, they will corrupt the government of the kingdom.
"The other thing is that party politics will become an important part of the empire's future, and if we want to counter them, why can't Württemberg form its own party?" Saxon said.
"What about Saxony and Bavaria?" Hearing the other party specifically mentioning Württemberg, the Grand Duke frowned slightly and asked back.
"Bavaria is also making preparations in this regard. On the one hand, it is to participate in the upper house of the Reichstag, and at the same time, to resist the erosion of its own power by foreign parties. You should be very clear that the Catholic Central Party is equivalent to the Social Democratic Party for us. Prussia, this kind of party that crosses the boundaries of states is not so easy to deal with. We can still insist, but some small states may have been emptied!" August III paused and continued: "As for us Saxony is naturally also preparing for this, but we position ourselves to have a certain influence and emphasize localization. We cannot become a royal-dominated political party like Bavaria, and then influence the entire empire!"
"Bavaria's ambitions are a bit big." Da shared a neutral word to describe Bavaria in his mind at this time. "However, Prussia is still deeply rooted." Albrecht thought for a while and said. At this time, he vaguely expressed his concern about the lack of power in Bavaria.
