"Yes, Prime Minister Bismarck established the earliest social welfare system in Germany and even in Europe, which guaranteed the basic economic rights of the people, but restricted the development of party rectification in Parliament. Even the inner states of the empire have such a large autonomy. It is also related to this to a degree. But this system can only be suitable for Germany before, not for Germany in the future."
"For a more vivid example, all of us are like in a village. When everyone lives in thatched huts and the village chief gives you an extra piece of bread, you will be grateful. But with the development of society, most people live in If a small number of people live in the palace, then your brick house is 100 times stronger than the previous thatched house. You are still dissatisfied with the village chief, even more than when you lived in the thatched house," the crown prince said.
"Because with the development of society, after the basic needs of life are met, the people begin to pursue more rights? For example, the right to rectify? And these people will eventually fight for their voice in the empire? If we follow them We will have a united empire, and if we suppress it, it may lead to social rifts?" Buhler said next to him. In fact, he decided to participate in the Social Democratic coup to a large extent to realize his own heart. His ideals are similar to those of many bourgeoisie who have become rich!
"Yes, this is the truth. In the future, different classes will form their own political parties. They have seen that struggle can bring their own benefits. For example, the current parliament sends veterans and soldiers. Perhaps in the near future, parliamentary Prussia will A new party will appear, and sooner or later, parties representing workers and emerging classes will also appear, and as long as their interests are reasonable, we should accept them.” The crown prince said.
"Including Bavaria?" Hassy's question is very acute.
"Of course, I think any class should have a legal way to express its political intentions." Ruprecht said.
"This will weaken the monarchy." Buhler said with a complex expression.
"The reason why I am a monarch is because of my ability, not just because of my birth and blood. To wear the crown, we must first bear the weight. Sometimes, for the future, we must make some trade-offs." Lu Precht said. When saying these things, the crown prince really has no selfish intentions. He would rather give up some of his rights in exchange for the unity of Germans from all walks of life within the empire.
Because, with the incorporation of a large number of territories, the proportion of the German nation is greatly reduced. If the Germans in the empire do not have a common understanding at this time, then the future will be very troublesome! It is very difficult to implement all this, because Ruprecht has sufficient prestige to guarantee his control of the country after weakening his rights, but neither the Kaiser nor the parliament have this certainty! Even if the crown prince said this to the Kaiser, he would definitely be boycotted, so Ruprecht could only start with the parliamentary faction!
"If you can get the support and understanding of the left, then at least it will not be a big problem to tide over this crisis, and even in 5 years, you can take back the governance of Hanover and other places." The crown prince said.
"Will this reconciliation policy of different strata be implemented in Kaiser Prussia?" Hasai asked.
"It's difficult." The crown prince replied simply. "In general, there are still more people supporting the Kaiser than supporting you. If it was a war period, you would only fail. German party politics is actually the behavior of certain middle-level and high-level groups. You lack sufficient public base. There is a certain public foundation, but no one likes him."
"Well, you are the plaintiff and the judge. As the defendant, we don't seem to have the right to reject you. In addition, since this time we will receive compensation significantly less than expected, we plan to reduce the size of the Prussian Federal Army. We can increase the budget for the central government to make up for our military obligations." Hassai thought for a while and said.
"Lower than previously agreed?" the crown prince asked.
"Yes, the war is over, at least it is impossible for me to see another war break out." Hasai said.
"Is this a way to solve the problem of the domestic officer corps in a way that hurts both sides?" Duke Albrecht sneered.
"The army is like a sharp sword. If you use it well, it is a guarantee of safety. If you don't use it well, you may hurt yourself. Obviously, we don't use it well, unless the Junker noble officer regiment can control the army. Change. I think your Excellency does not want the army to interfere too much in government affairs, do you?" Hasai said.
"We will not embarrass these veterans of Crook, they also have credit for the empire, the previous things are completely wiped out." Hasai said.
"Haha, what do you mean is to wait for the older generation of generals to take over, and then establish a new army led by you? Then I think you may have to do a systematic project. The army controls the Junker nobles and relies on more than just privileges and Nepotism. Their family education, inheritance and the entire education system are actually more conducive to the Junker nobles going to the army." Duke Albrecht said.
"Since you are asking for pluralism in politics, the same is true for the army as the sharp edge of the country, and hasn't Bavaria already done this? Among high-ranking officers, the proportion of nobility is significantly lower than that of Prussia. The army has also become one of the channels for all classes to rise." Hasai insisted.
"Well, at least in reducing the proportion of your army, we can help." The crown prince thought for a while and said. Parliament Prussia wants to reduce the number of troops, so in order to ensure the stability of the imperial military power, other states must increase, if the Kaiser does not increase, then the crown prince can provide the number of Bavarian legions. Of course, the parliamentarians must compensate with other benefits.
After the two parties exchanged some other things, the meeting ended perfectly.
"According to the latest news, the British have decided to fully fulfill our conditions. Now, the domestic turmoil will also be subdued. This period is really turbulent." Duke Albrecht said.
"Yes, things in Europe are about to come to an end, but a new storm will be brewing in the Western Pacific. And in this storm, what is the purpose of the German Empire?" Ruprecht if anything Said thoughtfully.
"Are we going to fulfill our previous promise?" the Duke asked.
"Yes, and believe me, this war may be more difficult than we thought." The crown prince said thoughtfully.
"Because of Britain?" the Duke asked.
"Yes, it is Britain," the crown prince said.
