Sanssouci Palace is located in the northern suburbs of Potsdam, Germany, and the palace was built by the Emperor Trete the Great.
On the orders of Frederick the Great, the architect of the palace, Georges Wincherslausnobersdorff, modeled after the Palace of Versailles in France.
The name of the palace is taken from the French word for "carefree".
The entire palace and garden area is 90 hectares, because it is built on a hill, so it is also called "the palace on the sand dune".
The middle part of the main hall of the palace is a semi-circular spherical roof, and the two wings are long conical ridge buildings.
In the center of the hall is a round hall.
The magnificent Prime Minister's Chamber, with its imaginative ceiling and gold-clad walls, is dazzling.
The interior is mostly decorated with murals and mirrors, and it is brilliant and bright.
In front of the palace there are parallel bowed 6 steps, flanked and surrounded by verdant jungle.
There is a fountain in front of the palace, which is directly opposite the portico of the main hall.
This fountain is carved with round petals, surrounded by earth, round flower beds, and there are statues of gods in the flower beds, especially the statues of Venus and Mercury.
It is said that there is a stone statue of a Greek mythological figure in the entire palace.
On the east side of the palace there is also a gallery of famous paintings, many of which are masterpieces by Italian and Dutch painters during the Renaissance.
The gallery is spacious and bright, and concerts are held here during the festive season.
There is a hexagonal pavilion in the garden, which is known as the "Chinese Tea Pavilion" with traditional Chinese turquoise tube tiles, golden S-shaped roof, and floor-to-ceiling cylindrical structure.
The tables and chairs in the pavilion are completely made in imitation of the oriental style, and there is a Chinese-style incense tripod standing in front of the pavilion.
Sanssouci Palace is the entire construction of German architecture in the 18th century, which lasted for 50 years.
Although it survived the war, it was not bombarded by artillery fire and is still well preserved.
And today our little Wilhelm is about to enter the largest royal palace in Prussia, which is also the administrative center of Prussia.
When the carriage stopped in front of the palace door, William was led down by Baron Buel, and the guards at the door lined up in two rows.
And his mother, Queen Louise, led many nobles to stand in the middle.
"See His Royal Highness the Prince," everyone except Princess Louise bowed their heads and saluted.
"Mother, I'm back," said little William, who ran into Louise's arms in spite of the others, and Louise hugged him tightly: "My poor little William, you're back at last," Louise burst into tears.
"Mother, don't cry, I'm back, I won't leave in the future.
Thank you all for coming to greet you in your busy schedule, and William apologizes," William said after comforting Louise.
"It is our honor to welcome His Royal Highness the Prince," everyone said after hearing William's thanks.
"Your Royal Highness, Your Highness the Prince, your Excellency, let's go in, His Majesty the King is still waiting in the hall," Bouel reminded him When the crowd heard Buel's words, they hugged William's mother and son and walked towards the hall.
In the hall, an old man sat on a throne, and next to him stood a middle-aged man.
Needless to say, this old man is Frederick the Great, and the middle-aged man is His Royal Highness Crown Prince Frederick Wilhelm II.
The Emperor was sixty-five years old, with half a hundred hair, emaciated, and wrinkled on his face like an old man of seventy or eighty years old, and his back was already hunched.
But the emperor's pair of blazing, eagle-eyed eyes are still bright, and anyone who is seen by the emperor's eyes will have a feeling as if the most ** part of his heart is being seen by others, which makes people shudder.
Now only the eyes of the emperor can make you feel that this is the famous lord Frederick the Great who shocked Europe.
"Her Royal Highness Princess Louise and Prince William are here," the attendant at the door said loudly, and many nobles in the hall, except for the Emperor and the Crown Prince, stood with their heads bowed and saluted on both sides.
Princess Louise took William's hand and slowly walked to the bottom of the steps of the throne to salute "See His Majesty the King" "My little William, come and show me," said Frederick the Great, hearing their respectful greetings.
William the Younger, hearing Frederick the Great's call, walked up the steps step by step, his eyes looking directly at Frederick.
Frederick the Great was not angry, but greeted him very happily: "Nice boy, there is a boy of our Hohenzollern family, and then he glanced at Crown Prince Frederick Wilhelm II, who was standing beside him, and said: "Little William, I've seen your father" "See His Royal Highness the Crown Prince," William said honestly, while Frederick William II frowned when he heard William Jr.'
s greeting: "Get up," he said, ignoring William.
Seeing this, Frederick was greatly dissatisfied, and saw the Emperor get up from his seat, take William's hand, and say loudly to the people at the bottom of the steps: "Frederick Wilhelm III, my grandson, my Prince of Brandenburg" Everyone in the hall exclaimed in surprise when they heard Frederick's voice.
Prince of Brandenburg This is not a simple title, you must know that Brandenburg is the capital of Prussia, and before William the Younger there was a Prince of Brandenburg, that is, Prince Friedrich of Brandenburg, that is, the later King of Prussia, Friedrich Wilhelm I, that is, the father of Frederick the Great - the famous soldier king.
After seeing that the people in the hall were made by his words, Frederick the Great shouted dissatisfiedly: "Silence, my grandson William the Younger will be taught by me personally" Ignoring the exclamations and comments of the crowd again, Frederick the Great took William the Younger and walked out.
And William Jr.'
s father, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, heard Frederick the Great's order, and his face was grim.
Looking at Frederick the Great holding his hand, William Jr. couldn't help but sigh with emotion: This lord put all his energy into developing the country's strength and reorganizing the army.
Frederick's private life was inspected, and he lived a simple life, often going to the barracks to share the weal and woe with the soldiers.
Even ignoring his actions as a statesman and his contributions to legislation, his military performance alone is enough to give him a place in history.

In the writings of Western military historians, Frederick the Great is recognized as a military great man on a par with Alexander the Great, Julius Caesar, Hannibal, Gustav II, and Napoleon.
"Little William, the Count of Byrne of Bavaria is dead" When Little William was still sighing, Frederick the Great stopped and said calmly "Your Majesty, it seems that you are going to meet Austria again?"
asked William Jr. after hearing his words.
"It seems inevitable, I heard that Maria Theresa and her son Joseph II often have different opinions on the governance of the state, and the ministers of the two factions often clash with each other, I hope that this time Bavaria will be dealt with before she reacts, I want Prince Henry to inherit Bavaria, what do you think" Frederick said and asked William Jr.
