With Henry and Locks taking the lead, the next scene seemed to be natural, and hundreds of nobles in the palace hall began to salute William under the leadership of Henry and Locks.
And Louise and Anna, who were standing on the steps with William before, looked at each other, and the two also walked down the steps, leaving William to stand on the steps alone to accept everyone's worship.
"This matter is related to the thousand-year inheritance of the Holy Roman Empire, and in the coming year, I will go to Frankfurt to discuss with His Majesty Maximilian, so don't talk about it here!"
Although William wanted to say that natural sentence very much, he knew that at this time, he must not be too anxious, after all, this kind of thing still has to be done gradually.
The scene at the Christmas dinner at the Brandenburg Palace spread quickly throughout Brandenburg the next day, and all the Prussians rejoiced at the news.
What does the Holy Roman Empire represent?
The Holy Roman Empire represents the hegemony of Europe!
Even though the emperor of the Holy Roman Empire did not have the authority to determine the life and death of the princes below him in the same way as the monarch of the East, it also depended on the strength of the emperor.
For example, in Prussia now, once William ascended the throne of Holy Roman Emperor, who in the whole of Europe would dare to disobey?
Prussia's hundreds of thousands of heroes were no joke.
And on the second day of Christmas, at the gate of the Brandenburg Palace, a large group of Prussian people also gathered, and these people were also cheering and begging Wilhelm to ascend the throne of the Holy Roman Emperor as soon as possible. looked at William, who appeared in front of him in full costume.
Louis's eyes suddenly turned red Seeing this scene, William hurriedly said: "Mother, what's wrong with you?"
Hear William's words.
Louise waved her hand to signal that she was okay, and then said: "William, I'm happy, the ancestors of the Hohenzollern family, hundreds of years of wishes will be fulfilled in you, how can you say that I am not happy, how can I not be excited!"
Hear Louis say that.
A smile appeared on William's face "Mother, Prussia still has a long way to go, and the world is big.
Compared to it, the Holy Roman Empire is only one of the milestones, and we in Prussia have much further to go next!
” William's eyes were very determined.
On 5 January 1794, Wilhelm set out from Brandenburg for Frankfurt.
And all Prussian towns along the route from Brandenburg to Frankfurt were flown with colorful flags flying high.
Although William declared it to the outside world.
The trip to Frankfurt was only to meet with Maximilian and celebrate the New Year, but everyone knew that Wilhelm's trip to Frankfurt was far from as simple as he said.
Maximilian stood in the palace in Frankfurt and looked at the snow outside, feeling a little sad in his heart.
Although he had known that this day would come, when he learned that Wilhelm had set off for Frankfurt, an indescribable sadness rose in his heart.
Maximilian touched the scepter in his hand, a symbol of the Holy Roman Emperor, and thought that soon, he would hand over the scepter that the Habsburgs had worn for hundreds of years.
Maximilian's heart was filled with all kinds of flavors.
"Your Majesty, it's time to eat!"
Vivien walked outside Maximilian's room.
Looked at Maximilian in the background and said.
Although the Prussians did not mistreat the Maximilian family, from the time the family lived in the royal palace in Frankfurt, the family's expenses were earmarked by the Prussian government.
But after Maximilian was discouraged, he disbanded most of the ladies and attendants in the palace, and for Maximilian he did not want to live in the eyes of the Prussians day and night, even though he had lost power.
During this time, as Maximilian was depressed, Vivien's heart was also very uncomfortable.
Maximilian walked to the door, looked at his daughter, and a smile tugged at the corner of his mouth "Let's go, don't let your younger siblings wait!"
Just as Maximilian's family was having dinner in the restaurant, and when they were about to finish eating, an attendant hurriedly walked in and whispered to Maximilian: "His Majesty the Emperor, His Majesty King Wilhelm of Prussia has rushed to the palace to ask for an audience!"
This squire was also a Prussian, but under the special care of the Prussian government, although these squires knew that Maximilian had lost power and became a puppet of Prussia, they still had all the courtesy they should have shown.
"Really?
Go and ask His Majesty if he has eaten, and if he has not, let the kitchen prepare some more food!
” After saying this, Maximilian said to his wife and his children: "Vivien stays, you guys step back first!"
Not long after the attendant turned to leave, William was led by the attendant to the dining room, and the first thing William noticed when entering the dining room was not Maximilian but Vivien.
She's slimmer, but she's also more impressive.
Standing at the door of the restaurant, William's gaze was very complicated, and seeing William's gaze at her, Vivien immediately prepared to leave, but her hand was grabbed by Maximilian.
Maximilian shook his head at Vivien, and seeing his father's gesture, Vivien could only salute William and sit down again.
"Your Majesty, welcome to Frankfurt, please take a seat!
By the way, inviting His Majesty the King to Frankfurt this time is really a last resort, after all, His Majesty the King is already the expectation of the entire empire, and if he steals this position again, he will not be criticized by the entire empire, so he is willing to give in, and please ask His Majesty not to shirk!
” As soon as William sat down, Maximilian looked up at William and said.

Since everyone knows the purpose of meeting each other, there is no point in detouring around the bend.
And now Maximilian has no hole cards to bargain with William.
Hearing Maximilian say this, William smiled and said: "His Majesty Maximilian really understands the righteousness and admires it.
But I have a small request, which I hope His Majesty will accept!
” "Oh?"
William paused, then glanced at Vivien and said to Maximilian: "I hope Princess Vivien can stay in the palace as a female official!"
As soon as William's words landed, Maximilian frowned, and Vivien looked at William with an unpleasant expression.
But in William's opinion, a beauty is a beauty, and even though Vivien is thinner than before, it is more out of the dust.
This made William decide not to let Vivien go anyway.
"Your Majesty, please respect yourself, I have already decided to wait until after my father's throne.
I went to the monastery to serve God wholeheartedly, so I can only say sorry for Your Majesty's request!
” Vivien whispered to William, but it was clear that William didn't listen to her.
"Your Highness the Princess.
In your esteemed capacity.
I don't think any monastery would dare to accept it.
In addition, I hope that Her Royal Highness will understand that the Prussians are Protestant, and Protestantism seems to have no nuns!
” As soon as William's words were finished, Vivien was stunned, and then a slightly flushed expression appeared on her face, of course, this was not shyness, more should be anger.
With these words, William expressed his desire for Vivien without concealing it.
And it was this lack of concealment that made Vivien feel ashamed.
"You are His Majesty the King, and William is His Majesty the Emperor.
I can't climb high!
” Vivien finally calmed down her mood, and then said coldly to William.
And after listening to Vivian's words, William said to Maximilian: "Your Majesty, your sons are very good talents, for talents, I think they should be reused, I think Archbishop Mainz and Archbishop Cologne can be your sons!"
William's words made Maximilian, who was sitting on the side, excited.
You must know that if Maximilian is in the Zen position, although William will not do anything to him, but considering his previous hostility to William, I am afraid that William will not treat him very well, but now it is different, William is actually willing to take out Cologne and Mainz, which is undoubtedly a great temptation for Maximilian.
Of course, Maximilian also knows that there is never a free lunch in the world, and whether his son is a talent or not, I am afraid that he knows better than William, in this case, Maximilian hinted to Vivien, and then took his leave under the pretext of having something temporary.
Cologne and Mainz naturally did not give it in vain, William's attitude towards Vivian, Maximilian naturally looked at it seriously, although he despised selling women for glory, but obviously William was not ready to force Vivian, which can be seen from the letters and gifts sent by William from Brandenburg from time to time.
"Vivien, did you miss me!"
William shamelessly sat next to Vivian, and when he saw William's helpless appearance, Vivien glared at him fiercely, and then didn't look at him, only used his spirit to deal with a dessert in front of him.
Seeing Vivien ignore him, William was not discouraged, he said with a grin: "Vivien, you are an angel sent by God to save me, if I lose you, my world will be dark, since I met you in Cologne, you have left a seed in my heart, and now, this seed has become a tree, and my heart is tightly entwined!
.....................”
The numb words kept coming out of William's mouth as if he didn't want money, and seeing that the expression on Vivian's face gradually eased, William grabbed Vivian's little hand and held it tightly in his palm.
"I can't bear your departure, because where you go, my heart goes!"
Seeing Vivien gradually stop resisting, William's heart was overjoyed. ......................................
Bagration eventually decided to lead his army back east, at the same time.
For Bagration to lead you to go, the Swedish army did not pursue, for Ostan.
It is the truth to let Bagration go and then take the opportunity to capture Estonia and Latvia.
London, England, January 9, 1794 "Your Majesty, urgent news from Brandenburg that King Wilhelm of Prussia has gone to Frankfurt, and it seems that he is preparing to usurp the throne of the Holy Roman Empire!"
Little Pete hurried into the royal palace in London and said to George III.
And hearing little Pete say this, George III immediately frowned and said: "It seems that the Prussians have quickened their actions, right.
How are we getting in touch with the countries of Europe?
” After the armistice of the five powers in Brussels, Britain began to look for reliable allies on the European continent who could fight Prussia, but all the countries in Europe hesitated to respond to the British government's private temptation.
Of course, there were many advantages to forming an alliance with the British against Prussia.
But the Prussian front was more tangible than the advantages of the British.
This also makes the countries of the European continent afraid to make up their minds easily.

"We made contact with the French and Austrians backwards, but to our disappointment, both the French and the Austrians seemed to be frightened by Prussia, and both governments rejected our proposal!"
"These bastards!"
George III cursed resentfully.
At present, there are only a few countries on the European continent that can contain Prussia, and France and Austria may help Britain contain Prussia, after all, Austria and Prussia are feuding, and if France wants to re-emerge on the European continent.
Prussia could not cross the threshold either.
But now that both countries had rejected the British proposal, the British government could not find a country that could help Britain to curb Prussia's development.
"That's right.
What do the states we associate with in the Holy Roman Empire say?
” "Except for the ambiguous attitude of the Duchy of Hesse, the other states have also rejected our proposal!"
The current Grand Duke of Hesse is Sunigo, although he is William's uncle, but he has always stood on the opposite side of Prussia, and when Maximilian planned the attack on William, he also had Sunigo's participation.
It's just that after this incident was exposed, because of his concern for Louise's relationship, William did not punish Sunigo too harshly, and the other princes who participated in the conspiracy were unlucky.
In the aftermath, Sunigo not only did not show mercy to William's men and was grateful to Dade, but even his attitude towards Prussia deteriorated further.
"One Hessian can't do anything, right, how is the government's army training going?"
After the signing of the peace agreement between the five countries, the British government not only did not stop the pace of military expansion, but even intensified its efforts to start large-scale training of the army.
For the British government, Prussia's army strength has always been a huge threat, and Britain must have a strong army if it wants to overwhelm Prussia.
Of course, the British government's policy of tilting towards the army made the navy dissatisfied, but fortunately, there were not many parts of the appropriation, and George III personally intervened, so the British Royal Navy also made a compromise.
In George III's plan, Britain needed to train 150,000 troops in the next five years, even though this force was far less than Prussia's army of more than 300,000, but in George III's opinion, the formation of such an army and the British navy was enough to make the Prussians jealous.
"Your Majesty, it's not long after Christmas, and it's only been less than half a month before the training plan is passed in Parliament, and my aunt won't be able to submit a written document to report on the progress until next month!"
Hearing little Pete say this, George III frowned dissatisfiedly.
However, George III also knew that he was a little too hasty with the army, after all, the army has never been the strength of the British, and the intensity of this large-scale training of the army is also unprecedented in British history.
At this moment, George III suddenly felt a pain in his head as if it was about to explode, and his eyes seemed to be blind all of a sudden, which made George III feel boundless fear.
"Quick, call the medical officer, my eyes, my eyes, ahhhh!!
hh In a panic, George III suddenly fell to the ground and kept yelling, and seeing George III's appearance, little Pete was immediately frightened, and he hurriedly ordered the panicked attendants around him: "Hurry up and bring the Medic!"
After finishing speaking, little Pete rushed to George III and shouted: "Your Majesty, can you hear me?
Your Majesty, please calm down, calm down!
” Despite Pete's repeated calls, George III only felt a sharp pain in his head, and he didn't listen to Pete's words at all.
"Ah, my head, it hurts!
Help me!
Come on!
” George III fell to the ground, clutching his head tightly with his hands as he rolled on the ground in pain.
"Quickly invite His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and the princes, and immediately summon the members of the government cabinet to gather in the palace, and immediately block the palace, anything can only enter but not leave!"
After calling a few squires to suppress George III, little Pete immediately commanded several squires.
Little Pitt is the prime minister of the British government, and his words are very authoritative, even if these attendants are directly under the royal family, but in the current chaos, they naturally have to obey the orders of Little Pete.
Soon, all the palace guards rushed out in full gear and stood guard all over the palace, and the British cabinet ministers and George III's sons were called into the palace as soon as possible.
