Chapter Twenty-Nine: Love Counsel and Influence I

Qiao Qiao looked at William, who was still entangled and undecided, in front of him, so he had to reluctantly say, "Willy, even if you don't want me to help you make up your mind, at least I can help you analyze and analyze." After all, if you think alone, you might be able to find a solution to your difficulties. ”

"You're going to keep it a secret, Jojo." William thought for a long time, and finally looked at Joey seriously and said.

"I promise." Joey raised his hands and swore.

William looked around and saw that it was just him and Joey in the restaurant, pulled the chair closer to Joey, and told Joey in detail about his experience at Charlottenburg Palace today.

After listening to William's narration, Joey suddenly felt that it might not be a wise thing to do for him to come up with ideas to be a love advisor.

"My dear eldest brother, you and Cousin Elizabeth are on the lawn of Charlottenburg Palace, in such a bright spring light this morning, and in the great moment when they are alone in private, you... You read the Bible with Cousin Elizabeth for a morning? Joey glared and repeated William's words again.

"Isn't this the etiquette that a gentleman and a lady should have when they get along in private?" William asked rhetorically.

"If you are in love with a lady, shouldn't you read her love poems? Shouldn't you be more romantic? Joey asked rhetorically, "This morning, even if you talk to your cousin about Goethe's The Troubles of Young Werther, or even Schiller's Conspiracy and Love, it would be better than the Bible!" Joey covered his head and sighed.

"You are right, but it is not in the spirit of Prussia! The standard of being a Prussian man is to be realistic and rational at all times, not to get carried away by the romantic stuff that makes our heads hot, and not to make ourselves crazy and vulgar. William said proudly, with his chin held high.

"Ah, is this still the crazy William of history?" Joey felt extremely surprised in his heart, and after carefully looking at William, he asked quietly, "Willy, what you are talking about should be part of the education of the crown prince, is it the request passed down by Frederick the Great, who "I am the first public servant of the country"?" ”

William pursed his lips with an expression that you know, but I can't say.

"You're pursuing love, not politics! We are all members of the Hohenzollern family, you should know the emotional life of Frederick the Great, he did not love his wife, but he also had no lover, except for the belief in God, he only cared about the country of Prussia. Willie, do you think you can? ”

"Jojo, to be Frederick the Great, this is the dream of every Hohenzollern man, and I am willing to give everything to Germany. I think you should do the same, Jojo. William answered Joey's question. Joey thought about it and could only nod in agreement with William.

"But I really like Elizabeth too!" William looked at Joey with a bitter face again.

Joey patted William's shoulder hard, and could only make an expression of "I understand" to comfort William.

"Willy, you wait," Joey seemed to remember something, "I have the impression that our ancestor, he left hundreds of flute scores in Sanssouci Palace, and although Sanssouci Palace is a reference to Versailles, it is also built according to some of his designs. Only a person with a poet's heart can do something so artistic. This shows that our ancestor is completely a romantic German! You expressed your admiration for Cousin Elizabeth with warm emotion, which fully met Frederick the Great's standards, absolutely no problem! Joey said, patting his chest.

"Joey, you have some point, but—" William asked with some hesitation.

"How can there be so much, but, what you have to do, what you should do, is to show your thoughts as deep as ice and your emotions as fiery as flame in front of Cousin Elizabeth. Willy, you have the characteristic rationality of a Prussian man, and even more so the enthusiasm and romance of a German, go and conquer Cousin Elizabeth! With deep wisdom and fiery love, coupled with your resolute and calm appearance, Cousin Elizabeth will never escape the love network that you have carefully crafted with reason and romance. Joey used the face of an expert in love theory to brainwash William.

"Is that okay?" William will be skeptical.

"Hi Willie, do you believe in fate! Think about it, the romantic love story between our ancestor and his English cousin! Joey grabbed William's shoulders tightly and said loudly, "Your current romantic love story also happened between you and your English cousin!" ”

"Ahh Yes! My love affair with Ella is as great as the love story of Frederick the Great! The more William thought about it, the more excited he became, and he got up and hugged Joey hard, and then hurried out of the restaurant. According to the results of Joey's psychological analysis of love, it should have been to Charlottenburg Palace.

Joey wrapped the last bit of chocolate sauce in the bottle on the bread and ate it satisfied, "Using psychological hints to influence other people's views on love, it seems that I haven't forgotten my old job, although I can't seal the gods, but Venus's status as a divine servant seems to have fallen." Joey thought to himself.

"Hey, it hurts, Mom!" A hand grabbed Joey's ear from behind. Joey doesn't have to think about it, the only person who can have such a steady and accurate way to pluck his ears recently is his mother.

"Joey, you actually ate a jar of chocolate sauce by yourself, don't you want your teeth!" Princess Victoria asked angrily.

"Mom, I was wrong, I'll go brush my teeth right away." Joey slipped out of his chair and covered his ears, immediately ready to flash.

"Jojo, there is chocolate Black Forest cake for dessert in the evening, save some stomach." The crown princess said with a straight face.

"Hey, thank you Mom." Joey nodded hurriedly, "By the way, can mom discuss, can I stop pulling my ears next time I make a mistake, and if I pull it again, my ears will really become fox ears." ”

"Flutter" The crown princess laughed, looked at Joey's expectant face, and said with a straight face, "This matter doesn't seem to be negotiable!" ”

"If you don't have a pair of fox ears, how can you look like a little fox." The crown princess looked at Joey's disappearing back and said with a smile in her heart.

News of Crown Prince Frederick's imminent appointment as Reich Minister of Economy had spread from Berlin, not only to the nobility of the German court (shocked by the easing of father-son relations after years of tension), but also to the German business elite, who were preparing for the effects of the changes brought about by the new Minister of Economy.
