Chapter 599 Gray Boss Franz
Prince Charlie asked the receptionist Count Augusta about his sister's whereabouts.
However, Qin told him calmly: "The princess has already informed me that she is being received by the Jeffreys family and is going to the imperial capital alone and will not be with us."
With the princess's active application, Daxia can justify it.
Prince Charlie was speechless. He knew his sister's character. If she was pushed to the limit, she might really do something ruthless, such as... seeking political asylum in the Daxia Empire.
In that case, the matter would become a big deal, which no one wanted to see.
In this regard, Prince Charlie could only pretend that nothing had happened.
Anyway, we can still meet in the imperial capital, so just bear with it.
Thinking this way, he was not so angry.
Except for this small episode, the reception work was generally harmonious.
After getting on the train, Prince Charlie finally breathed a sigh of relief.
The Lionheart Kingdom has also built a railway, and the Daxia Empire has finally not come up with any black technology in transportation.
Anyway, the Lionheart Kingdom has it, and the gap is another matter.
We arrived at the new Pulan Station smoothly.
This is the new railway station that has just been put into use. It is much larger than the old station.
The development of the city has exceeded everyone's expectations. There has never been a similar experience in the past few hundred years.
Fortunately, the construction and reconstruction of the new city have more room for development.
At this time, there are also many people in the new city. Some citizens have moved, and the influx of foreign population from all over the country makes the new city look lively.
In fact, this is the current display window of the Great Xia Empire.
The brand-new city is a product of the new era, without any traces of the old era.
High-rise buildings, road cars, buses and trams, everything is available.
A large number of capital enterprises have moved in and expanded in order to meet business needs.
Many college graduates are also willing to work in this environment.
The people of the empire who have just entered the new era prefer to move into high-rise buildings and regard it as a trend.
The area near the railway station is naturally the first place to be developed.
When Prince Charlie went up to the second floor of the station along the elevator on the underground floor, he saw the appearance of the city.
It was as if he had traveled through time, making him dazed.
Qin silently watched Prince Charlie's expression. This was the effect he wanted.
How could he be used by Daxia without destroying his three views and reshaping his worldview?
The politics of a great power is not that simple.
Just like funding the overseas student Harman to go back and stir up trouble, do you think it is really to help the Lionheart Kingdom carry out a bourgeois revolution?
When the Daxia Empire shows its fangs, the pro-Xia faction headed by Harman will probably wake up.
There are not so many good people in the world, let alone a country.
It is obviously shallow and ignorant to simply use good and evil to distinguish a country.
Complexity and diversification are national politics.
Just like the Daxia Empire's policy against the Lionheart Kingdom, they support Harman. You can say that they are carrying out a revolution and supporting.
You can also say that they are creating war and chaos and are enemies.
And the conversion between enemies and friends is also very flexible.
Therefore, specifically for Prince Charlie, the first step is to break his will. After he is inclined to Daxia, you can start investing.
Doing this is not naive thinking that this will make Prince Charlie serve wholeheartedly, that is impossible.
Qin wants to leave a mark so that he can better intervene in the internal affairs of the Lionheart Kingdom in the future.
Even if Prince Charlie returns to power, he will always remember this experience. Even if he is hostile to Daxia, he will not ignore Daxia.
When Prince Charlie came to his senses, Qin took him to the embassy to live.
Before parting, Qin specifically said: "The emperor may not approach you immediately. I have arranged some interesting itineraries for you. I will notify you when the time for the audience is confirmed."
Prince Charlie also expressed his gratitude. He has not mentioned anything about Haman until now.
Although his purpose of coming to Daxia is to cut off the aid from Daxia, it will not have any effect if he brings it up rashly.
In the Lionheart Embassy, Prince Charlie finally met the ambassador, Mr. Jack.
"Welcome, your highness." The ambassador expressed his welcome. He is familiar with Charlie, and a prince's mission may change the current embarrassing position of the kingdom in Daxia.
"Thank you for your hard work, Ambassador Jack."
Prince Charlie also expressed his respect for the ambassador. After all, defending the Great Xia Empire is not an easy task.
The two came to the room and closed the door to relax.
Prince Charlie couldn't wait to ask: "Have you found any clues?"
The situation in the kingdom is not good. The power of the Hamman rebels is growing, which is worrying.
"There are some clues, but I'm not sure if someone deliberately let me find them." The ambassador was very helpless and said: "The environment in the Great Xia Empire is too bad for us, and the kingdom can't give more support."
If it weren't for sufficient funds, his work could be said to have made no progress at all.
Prince Charlie took the information handed over by old Jack and listened to what the other party said while reading it.
"Franz Perez, a knight of Great Xia, but his background is first-class.
His aunt is the current Queen of Great Xia, and Count Augusta is his cousin.
His second uncle is the marquis of this country, and the Perez family is also one of the leaders of the largest northern faction in Great Xia.
According to our investigation, although Sir Ferranz's reputation was not very good when he was young, he is now very good.
He is involved in many businesses such as slave trading, arms smuggling, and casino lending. We have no way to investigate the specific circumstances, but he has a personal relationship with Haman, and the mole who disclosed the information told me that the weapon in Haman's hand is Fei The batch that Sir Lowndes smuggled out was exactly the right quantity. "
Prince Charlie looked cautious. Sir Ferranz's properties were all gray and black, and ordinary people couldn't play with them.
The external image of such a person may be fake, but in fact he is an invisible boss in a gray area.
As for digging deeper, Prince Charlie and Old Jack were too smart to mention it.
After all, even if it is directed by the royal family, this kind of assistance is currently provided through private channels.
It was impossible for them to pull Daxia officials off the field.
Sometimes pretending to be deaf and dumb is also a kind of knowledge.
"Where is Sir Ferranz now? I want to talk to him." Prince Charlie said.
Ambassador Jack smiled bitterly and said, "He may have known that we were looking for him, so he hid. We have never found him."
Looking at it this way, the possibility that Sir Ferranz is the man behind the scenes is greatly increased.
After all, you didn't do it, so why are you hiding?
