Upon arrival in Venice, Wilhelm and his entourage stayed for two more days, during which time Wilhelm personally met with the Prussian government officials stationed in Venice.
Two days was not a long time, but for the Prussian officials, who had just arrived in Venice, William's attitude was undoubtedly very encouraging.
After meeting with these officials, William went to some of the main roads of Venice to inspect the people's livelihood.
Because of the previous Prussian attack on Venice, the situation in Venice is not very stable so far, at least some Venetians are not willing to be ruled by the Prussians, and there are also a considerable number of Venetians who are afraid of the Prussians.
In this situation, Venice, the capital of trade, presented William with a bustling scene, and the crowds on the streets were still in a hurry.
"This will not work, we must convince the Venetians that they are living better under Prussian rule than before!
In addition, Venice will also be one of the priorities of the kingdom in the next phase, and I hope that you local officials will do your best to restore Venice to its former prosperity!
” Looking at the Venetians passing by on the street looking at his group with fear and horror, William said with a frown to the several Prussian officials standing beside him.
As soon as Wilhelm had finished speaking, Haisen, as the Prussian governor in Venice, spoke: "Your Majesty, Venice has just been brought under the rule of the Kingdom not long ago, but I believe it.
If you give us three years, we will not only be able to restore the prosperity of Venice to its former glory, but even surpass it!
This.
Our local government is confident!
” Hearing Haisen's words, William was quite satisfied, of course, William's expression was still quite serious and said: "It's good to have faith, Heisen, but you also know that Venice and we in Prussia are different in many ways, and as the first Doge of Venice, you have a very difficult task on your shoulders.
I hope you will always be vigilant and not be careless!
Of course, I am confident that you and your colleagues will live up to my hopes!
Remember, if I want Venice to be in peace for a long time.
Remember that!
” William's words were full of vigilance, and after William finished speaking, Hayson also said with a look of trepidation: "As you wish, Your Majesty!"
After talking to Hayzen.
William turned and got into a carriage.
Prussia still has a long way to go before it can completely dominate Venice.
And it is these Prussian officials who can be counted on for now.
On June 25, 1794, William left Venice.
Sitting in the carriage, William's brows were tightly locked, even though he had achieved one of his goals and become the emperor of the Holy Roman Empire, but the imperial crown was not a end for William, but a new beginning!
William wanted to transform the Holy Roman Empire, and it turned out that the current loose federal state of the Holy Roman Empire could not allow William's will to carry out throughout the empire, and William's dream of creating a centralized empire meant that he wanted to completely break the order of the Holy Roman Empire for hundreds of years.
Then build your own empire on top of its ruins!
It was not easy, because the princes were looking down on Prussia for all sorts of reasons.
But if William really started his own centralized actions, then these princes would inevitably join forces against William, after all, no prince was willing to give up the power in his hands!
And there are many examples of this kind of princely huddling against the emperor in the history of the Holy Roman Empire.
While William was sitting in the carriage and thinking silently, he only heard Horn's voice outside the carriage, and then William looked up.
The carriage came to a halt, and as soon as the carriage stopped, Horn opened the door and stepped into the carriage.
"Your Majesty, news from Brandenburg that the Romanov dynasty has been overthrown by the Blankov rebels, and that Alexander and the Baltic Fleet of the Russians have gone into exile and are now staying in Copenhagen, our country!"
Hearing Horn's words, William's expression became very surprised.
The Romanov dynasty was overthrown, and although the rebels had the upper hand for a time, it was not easy for William to overthrow the Romanov dynasty, and it was proved that the Romanov dynasty did not end its rule over the Russian Empire until the beginning of the twentieth century, at least historically.
"What does the government say?"
"Prime Minister Locks has ordered the Copenhagen side to delay the Russians in Copenhagen as much as possible, and at the same time, the Lord of the Navy, His Excellency Mehard, has also suggested to the government that communication should be made with the Russians, and it is better to hire a Russian fleet, and the Baltic Fleet carries a large amount of goods, and His Excellency the Prime Minister hopes that we will be able to obtain that wealth!"
"Well, Locks has a good idea, you immediately send someone back to Brandenburg to tell Locks, I agree with his opinion, but at the same time tell Locks that since Russia has changed dramatically, then our previous attitude towards the civil war in the Russian Empire must be changed, let him see the contact with the Russians, and tell them that we can help them to restore the country!"
William thought for a moment and then immediately said to Horn.
But after listening to William's words, Horn said: "But your Majesty, since Alexander is already in exile, what good can we do to support him in his restoration?
And now that Brankoff's rebels are strong, I'm afraid that even if we give us some help, we won't be able to help Alexander recover!
” "No, I just want to make our attitude clear, you just have to let Locks convey my meaning to the Russians, and I'll wait until I get back to Brandenburg!"
After saying that, William closed his eyes, and seeing William's actions, Horn had to leave the carriage immediately to set up.
The Russian Civil War, the reason why the attitude of the Prussians would be neutral.
For the same reason as in Austria, Wilhelm hoped that the colossal monster of Russia would be battered in the midst of civil strife, since a united Russian empire deserved a terrible threat to all European countries.
But now.

Alexander actually lost even St.
Petersburg, doesn't that mean that the day is not far off when Brankoff will unify Russia and take power?
And that's exactly what William doesn't want to see.
After a while, William pulled the rope in the carriage, and then the carriage stopped again, and one of the guards opened the door for William, and before the guard could speak, William immediately said: "Immediately get the team up to speed.
We had to get back to Brandenburg in the shortest possible time!
” Upon learning of William's order, the whole team immediately hastened its march until about seven o'clock in the afternoon.
William and his party stopped in a field and began to set up camp.
Not long after William entered the camp, he only heard a noise outside, which made William's heart feel bored for a while, so he walked out of the camp with a frown.
I saw Karl with a few Austrians clamoring to see William.
"Let them come!"
See this happens.
William had no choice but to let the guards who had stopped Carl and his party retreat.
"My Majesty the King of Austria, I wonder what is the urgency of you clamoring to come to me so late without rest?"
Hearing William's name for himself, Carl's heart immediately became dissatisfied, but because he was under the roof, Carl could only suppress the anger in his heart and then respectfully saluted William and said: "Your Majesty Augustus!
I have heard that your army is in a hurry to return to Brandenburg, in this case, can your Majesty let me rush back to Vienna first?"
My Majesty's previous requests have been denied, but now that I am approaching Austrian territory.
Then, as King of Austria, I would like to ask your Majesty to allow me to rush back to Vienna first.
Then make some preparations, so that your army's march can be effectively accelerated!
” Sure enough, Carl came to see William or wanted to return to Vienna, William's eyes were fixed on Carl's face, and in the face of William's gaze that seemed to be able to look directly into the bottom of his heart, Carl unnaturally tilted his head slightly to avoid William's gaze.
Seeing Carl's small movements, a smile appeared on William's face.
"My Majesty, why are you in a hurry to leave, although you and I are of different status, we can be regarded as relatives no matter how we say it, why don't you go to Brandenburg with me?
Your sister misses you so much!
” Hearing William say this, Karl was so shocked that even a shocked look appeared on his face, and then he hurriedly said: "Your Majesty can't help it!
The king of Austria has not returned to Vienna for a long time since he went to Frankfurt to accept His Majesty's canonization. ” Karl said as he bent down towards William.
William walked back and forth in front of Carl for a few steps, and Carl looked at the two feet that kept shaking in front of his eyes, and his heart was also worried.
What are you kidding, if you really go to Brandenburg with William, wouldn't it really cost Karl's life!
Carl has been away from Vienna for a long time, and there is a scheming Ferdinand in Vienna, who has been able to endure until now, Karl's patience is already quite good.
If he had made another trip to Brandenburg, he would have to wait until the Year of the Monkey, or if he returned to Vienna, and Austria's rights would have been usurped by Ferdinand.
Finally, William's feet stood in front of Carl again, and then Karl, who bowed his head and bent over, only heard William say: "Well, since my Austrian king can't help but want to return to Vienna, then I'm going to do it!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty the Great Emperor!"
Hearing William say this, Carl quickly straightened up and said excitedly.
But as soon as Carl finished speaking, William said a word that made Carl's heart rise again "But, my Majesty, I am really reluctant to let you go so early, so I should not wait any longer, at least until we reach the vicinity of Vienna!"
Karl felt a chill in his heart, but he also knew in his heart the reason why William didn't let him leave early.
At present, Wilhelm's army was only about 10,000 men, and if it had not yet crossed the Austrian border.
If William had let the tiger go back to the mountain, it would have been terrible if Karl had immediately mobilized his army to besiege William after returning to Vienna.
Seeing that William's attitude was very resolute and impossible to change, Carl's heart was broken.
But he could only reluctantly agree.
However, after Karl left, William summoned the other imperial princes who accompanied him to Rome, and William's attitude towards these princes was completely different from that of Carl.
William not only promised these princes that from tomorrow they could return to their respective territories, but William may have promised.
These princes were the pillars of the Holy Roman Empire, and the central government of the Empire would not forget their contributions, and the Empire was considering appropriate assistance to these princes.
William's promise touched the princes greatly.
For these princes, at least, they knew that their strength was not strong enough to fight Prussia, and it was both helpless and compromise to follow William to Rome.
However, the Prussians did not treat these princes badly along the way, at least the supplies and everything were drawn from the Prussians.
And that's not all.
After the successful coronation in Rome.

William also gave each of these princes a handsome reward, and for some of these princes who were shy in their pockets, William's move was a good way to win people's hearts.
The next day, when Karl rode on his horse and watched the group of princes leave the Prussian march, his face was terrible.
"Your Majesty, the Prussians are so hateful that they will not let us return to Vienna.
But let these princes rush back to the fiefdom one by one, isn't this deliberately aimed at us!
” "Andrey.
Silence, this is not Vienna, and besides, we are still surrounded by the Prussians, so let's not make any trouble at this time, my brother-in-law is not a fuel-efficient lamp!
” ................................
At this moment in Brandenburg, Louise was standing outside the door of Christine's dormitory, looking helplessly at the closed door.
After William transferred Neville to the Prussian government, Louise ordered Christine to leave the Brandenburg Palace, and at first, Christine did as Louise told her.
However, the apparent obedience did not mean that Christine would really stay in the Brandenburg Palace, and within a few days, Christine had a germination of old ways and wanted to escape from the Brandenburg Palace in disguise under the cover of her maid.
But this time it was not easy, because of Louise's strict orders, at least the defenders of Brandenburg did not have the courage to turn a blind eye to the princess's behavior as before.
As a result, Christine's disengagement plan had to be aborted.
In the past few seasons, Cristini has completely despaired of escaping from the palace, and even the palace maids who are serving around her have been replaced by Louise's cronies, in this case, Cristini has to threaten with a last resort, which is a hunger strike!
"Christine, don't be so stubborn, what's so good about that Neville, he just wants to climb the dragon and the phoenix, he is acting in front of you, mom can still deceive you, don't embarrass yourself because of this person!"
After a while, under the premise that several palace maids called the door to no avail, Louise had to go to the door of the dormitory and speak in person.
But Cristinie didn't give Louise any face, and the door was still closed.
"Christine, if you go on a hunger strike again, then I can guarantee that Neville will be hanged at the gates of Brandenburg in no time!"
Louise had to be ruthless, knowing that Cristini had been on hunger strike for two days, and she was really afraid that her daughter would not be able to hold on.
Besides, Christine is William's favorite sister, and if William returns to Brandenburg, if Christianine really has something to do, I'm afraid there will be no less complaints about Louise at that time.
Hearing Louise threaten Neville, Cristinie in the dormitory could no longer hold on, and the closed door of the dormitory was opened in a short time.
"Queen Mother, don't go to Neville, he's innocent!
He and I really love each other, please fulfill us!
” After opening the door, a weakened Christine stumbled up to Louise and hugged Louise and said.
Seeing Cristinie's appearance, Louise also left distressed tears on her face.
"Christine, although your royal brother promised you, have you thought about your identity?
You are the princess of the Kingdom of Prussia, how can you get along with that Neville!
Have you ever thought about the honor of the Kingdom of Prussia!
” "Mother, if it was really because of my identity, then I would rather not be born in the royal family!"
Cristiny's words sent a look of shock on Louise's face "Christine, how can you say that?
From the moment you were born, you have carried the honor of the royal family, Christine, listen to your mother's advice, that Neville is really not suitable for you, don't embarrass your mother and your royal brother, okay!
” After Louise finished speaking, the tears on Cristiny's face deepened.
While there was a commotion in the Brandenburg Palace, Neville, who was on duty in the Prussian government, was called into his office by Elstner to reprimand him.
"Neville, how did you do it, you can mess up this matter, can you still do it in the government!"
Elstner's relentless accusations made Neville's face flush.
