Chapter 2419: Meet two
Obviously, everyone knows that if the German side wants to discuss some confidential matters with Gustav V this time, then only the Crown Prince Ruprecht can make a decision! Even on the diplomatic level, his power is greater than that of the Kaiser! Because it is recognized by the Big Three in Germany that the Crown Prince is responsible for the foreign affairs of Europe and the United States! And now, Ruprecht took the initiative to choose to leave the venue with him temporarily, which really made him a little confused, what kind of medicine the crown prince sells in the gourd!
Of course, some people may say that this is in Germany, even if Ruprecht is not there, others can discuss something with Gustav V. This may indeed exist. But imagine that if this were the case, Ruprecht would just have to squeeze Brandt away. There is no need to leave the scene by himself.
"Your Excellency, today's script is a bit beyond my expectations." Gustav V looked at the leaving Crown Prince Ruprecht and Branting somewhat unexpectedly.
"No matter what we talk about, if we finally want to implement it, we must get the approval of your government. This is something that cannot be avoided. Since we can't avoid it, why don't we actively respond to it?" Grand Duke Baden saw Gustav V, who looked a little embarrassed, continued. "Under the current circumstances, your idea of using the external influence of the empire to strengthen the royal power is difficult to implement. After all, Sweden has restricted the royal power since the beginning of the eighteenth century. The power of the monarch has been continuously weakened for hundreds of years. , We can’t change all of this in just a few days. Don’t you think?”
For this relative’s thoughts, the Grand Duke of Baden understood very well. One of the aspects was to restore Sweden’s past glory, but more importantly, he wanted to restore the royal family’s rights. However, this is not so easy to agree to for the German Empire. The reason is simple. Germany will not offend a country and its citizens that could have been a trading partner for the rights and desires of a certain individual! There is no conflict of fundamental interests between Sweden and Germany, and even Germany does not force Sweden to be like Finland, once the war is rekindled, Sweden must send troops, because Sweden has no reason! After all, Sweden and Russia do not border!
The current strategy of Germany against Sweden is to pull it into the European Union led by Germany and Austria, and then achieve mutual benefit through the division of production! Sweden and Finland are not the same. Look at Ericsson, Bofors, and Nobel Industries, which are very famous industrial giants in later generations. You can know that Sweden’s industrial and scientific research capabilities are not weak, but rather strong in some aspects. For example, Ericsson’s communications, Bofors’s artillery, and Nobel Industries’ chemical industry. For a strong, non-hostile country, Germany is mainly to win, so even if the Grand Duke of Baden and Gustav V are relatives, he will never make any promises to Gustav.
Of course, the German side still has to take care of Gustav V’s mood. After all, everyone is relatives and potential allies. If it works well, Sweden in the future may be very close to Germany! "I think the most important thing you need to do now is not to fight for power, but to re-package the royal family! At least we need to make the Swedish people realize that the king is not just a symbol of Sweden, he has the ability and brain to serve Sweden Create a better future. For example, if the mutually beneficial cooperation between Germany and Sweden in the future can be created by you, it will undoubtedly be a huge increase in your reputation. Once you have a reputation, we can gradually become a member of the public , Parliament and government to expand their influence."
This method was devised by Ruprecht for Gustav V, and there is a reason for this! Because this is how Gustav VI, the son of Gustav V, redefined and repackaged the Swedish royal family! After Gustav VI came to the throne, quite a few people in Sweden wanted to completely abolish the monarchy!
During his reign, Gustav VI successfully reversed the domestic public’s perception of the royal family and made the Swedish royal family more close to the people. He also defined the king as an intermediary between various political forces in the country and used his personality and ability to communicate with each other. Party, he has no scandals, has not caused any trouble, and has won the approval of the Swedish people with this attitude! In this regard, he is much better than his father!
Gustav VI recognized reality well, and found his own position in reality! It is impossible to restore the power of the monarch! The monarch has become a symbol, so it is difficult to regain power again! Rather than thinking about something unrealistic, it is better to be a symbol! Being close to the people and reconciling party conflicts can undoubtedly establish a very positive image.
The same is true of what the German Empire wants to do now. There is no benefit in helping Gustav V to restore his rights. On the contrary, let Gustaf V use his special relationship as a bridge for cooperation between Germany and Sweden is the best choice! While communicating the relationship between the two countries, ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ the importance of the king will naturally increase. Let alone how much power can be regained in the end, but the influence will definitely increase.
"Believe me, Your Majesty, in this world, we are your best friends, and we hope to see you play a greater role in Sweden in the future. This is the kind feedback of the German Empire to you and ours Your promise." Grand Official Baden said earnestly.
"I believe in you, my dearest." Gustav V nodded and said.
"Next, His Majesty Kaiser and His Royal Highness Crown Prince Ruprecht will meet with you individually to discuss some issues. I believe that if we operate properly, the next time the Crown Prince meets with you, the unpleasant cloth Lanting will not appear in the venue." Grand Duke Baden said.
"Really? This guy is very stubborn, like a stone!" Gustav V was obviously very dissatisfied with Branding.
"Blanting is just stone, and Crown Prince Ruprecht is steel." Grand Duke Baden said with a smile.
"Hehe, then we will wait for the victory of the Crown Prince of Bavaria tonight." Gustav V seemed to be infected, so he said with a smile.
At the same time, Crown Prince Ruprecht and Karl Alma Branding have come to a relatively remote house, the house is not large, and the interior is not luxurious. But it makes people feel very comfortable. How should I put it, it feels a bit extravagant like later generations.
