Lin Youde ordered that all celebrations be held as usual, only to raise the alert level.

At the same time as the official patrol manpower was increased, the workers of the factories near Sanssouci Palace and the residents of Potsdam City also took action spontaneously, and for a time the whole Potsdam could be seen everywhere with red armbands, and all the faces would be immediately interrogated.

Beginning at noon, many German dignitaries and dignitaries who had planned to arrive in the afternoon or even in the evening rushed to Sanssouci Palace one after another, and it seemed that everyone wanted to express their condolences to Mr. Adviser and Miss President as soon as possible - by the way, they could also confirm the condition of Sanssouci Palace with their own eyes.

Lin Youde had to start the reception plan in advance, and arranged an afternoon tea party in the corridor of the north gate of Sanssouci Palace to receive these dignitaries who arrived early.

In order to convey to the press that both she and Viola were safe, the tea party was attended by journalists, and the reporters from the various newspapers in Potsdam were so excited that they flocked to Sanssouci Palace.

But the reporters were quickly poured cold water: all cameras had to be confiscated for security reasons, because they could contain firearms or bombs.

However, the press director of Sanssouci immediately told the reporters that they could enjoy a leisurely afternoon tea with the President and His Excellency the Advisers, and asked questions at will, and the reporters' dissatisfaction immediately disappeared.

The venue for afternoon tea was set up very quickly, after all, there will be an open-air dinner here in the evening, so the preparation is quite sufficient.

Soon after two o'clock, the space in the cloister at the north gate of Sanssouci Palace was occupied by well-dressed gentlemen and ladies.

At half past two, President Viola, accompanied by Hayashi Youde and Chihiro Matsudaira, appeared at the venue. Viola was still dressed as usual, with a ribbon representing her presidency straaning from her shoulders to her waist. Lin Youde did not wear the military-style uniform that he custom-made after the most civil war, but a very ordinary suit, which looked like an ordinary businessman, or the kind that could only expand with difficulty after decades of law-abiding business.

Chihiro Matsudaira wore an aqua blue dress with a low neckline and off-the-shoulders, making people wonder if she had mistaken the season. But this dress really immediately distinguished Chihiro from the other girls present, she suddenly became the focus of attention, just looking at the reactions of the men at the scene, Lin Youde was very sure that the fox would definitely become the princess of tonight's ball.

The fox didn't seem to notice the gaze gathered on him, his eyes lowered and followed closely behind Lin Youde's side, which was completely the standard way for Yingzhou's wife to follow her husband to attend formal occasions, a good wife and a good mother should be tight, and people who were not familiar with her nature would be deceived one hundred percent.

After being polite with the dignitaries, Viola and Lin Youde walked to the area where the reporters gathered.

A journalist, who looked like a Frenchman, couldn't help but ask: "On behalf of my colleagues, Mr. Advisor, I am deeply shocked by the attack on you this morning, what measures will you take against the attackers in the future?" ”

Lin Youde said with a smile: "The person who launched the attack has already committed suicide by swallowing cyanide, may I ask Mr. Reporter, what can I use to deal with a person who has already gone to hell?" ”

"Uh, I mean, those behind it......"

"On this point, allow me to answer in Chinese: good and evil will be rewarded in the end, and the way of heaven is good reincarnation. If you don't believe it, look up, the sky bypasses whom. ”

After Lin Youde finished speaking, the French man's expression was so bad that he looked like the handsome French guy didn't understand Chinese, but he was embarrassed to say it in public. And there were obviously people present who understood Chinese, and these people all had expressions of understanding something.

The Frenchman was still about to speak, but the fox, who had been quiet, spoke: "Monsieur Pierre, today is a festive day in our Chinese culture, so could you please stop talking about those disappointing things for the time being?" ”

It seems that this Pierre often attends balls held at Sanssouci Palace, so he has a bit of a friendship with the fox.

Lin Youde can't remember the French at all, and most of the balls with a weak political flavor are focused on the girls.

After the French stopped, Lin Youde's old friend Leonardo stepped forward to shake Lin Youde's hand, and then the handsome guy who was almost exactly the same as the uncrowned king of the Oscars looked at the fox and said, "I won't express concern about what happened in the morning." I just want to know, will Your Excellency Advisor issue Vale shares in the United States? More than 20 percent of Vale's employees are Americans, so ......"

"No, Xiao Li." Not long after Lin Youde met this reporter, he began to call him by the affectionate name of domestic fans in another time and space, "Stocks are indeed a good way to get investment, but I think I have enough money and don't need more investment." ”

"I can understand that you don't issue shares in Germany, because you have the equivalent of the US Federal Reserve, and the money inside Germany doesn't make sense to you. But the investment from the U.S. market is also ...... for you."

"I said, I'm not short of money, and I don't need to trade my control over the company for your investment."

Xiao Li shrugged, then turned to Viola, who looked a little bored: "The Chinese New Year will last for several days, will Miss President stay in Sanssouci Palace these days?" ”

"Huh?" Viola didn't seem to expect the problem to suddenly turn to her, and she was stunned, "Uh, yes." This year, because I started planning to make time a month in advance, I will stay here until the ...... in China."

Viola seemed to have forgotten what the fifteenth was all of a sudden, and could only cast a plea of help to Lin Youde.

Lin Youde just wanted to speak, but someone interjected from the side: "Lantern Festival, Miss President." ”

"Ah yes, Lantern Festival." Viola turned in the direction the voice came from, "Xie Lu Xie." ”

Lin Youde also turned his head together, and saw a fresh face - well, although the reporters present are all resident reporters, Lin Youde doesn't recognize many people, so they are all fresh faces.

"Who are you?"

"Sorry for being late to introduce yourself." The right hand of the person who came was pressed to his left chest, and he bowed to Viola and Lin Youde, "I am a reporter for the Free Austrian newspaper, Jacob. ”

When Lin Youde heard the name of the newspaper, he glanced at Hybert not far away, who immediately gestured to him that the newspaper was not directly "sponsored" by NERV.

While Lin Youde confirmed, Viola responded politely: "Hello, Mr. Jacob. ”

"Hello." Jacob straightened up, and then immediately turned his gaze to Lin Youde, but he immediately turned his gaze back to Viola, "Miss President, I have always admired you very much, because you rose up in the most difficult time for the German people and led them to win the good life they are now, I think that the victory of the German Civil War is no less than the great victory of Waterloo." ”

"You've won a prize." Although Viola is not yet sixteen years old, she has been in this position for a long time after all, so she indifferently took Jacob's sycophant and changed to a more polite expression, in order to keep herself away from the reporter who took the initiative to be close.

Jacob did not seem to notice that Viola had become alarmed, and he continued to say enthusiastically: "And now, right next to the great Germany, another group of Germans is suffering from hunger and poverty, Miss President, are you not going to save them?" ”

Lin Youde heard the fox beside him smack his lips.

Viola raised her eyes and looked at Lin Youde, who didn't speak, looking like "I'll leave it to you to deal with".

After all, it's Viola who is asking, it's "Miss President", and it's not good for Lin Youde, who is an adviser, to come forward and speak, after all, there are so many dignitaries and reporters around to watch it.

At this time, the attention of the people around them was also concentrated, everyone knew that Lu Daolin Youde had ideas about Austria, and most of the dignitaries present also wanted to dismember Austria-Hungary and take benefits, so at this time they all held their breath and waited for Viola's answer.

Viola looked at the Austrian named Jacob and replied in a straight voice: "Mr. Jacob, will you sing the Internationale composed by my advisor?" ”

"Of course, I especially love this song! This is a masterpiece comparable to Beethoven's Heroic Symphony, and your advisor is an absolute musical genius of our time. ”

Lin Youde raised his eyebrows, this sycophant made him feel not as good as he imagined.

He also heard the fox laughing, and he didn't know what she was laughing at.

Viola continued to maintain a solemn tone and continued: "Then you must remember how the lyrics of this song were written. 'There has never been a savior, nor has it relied on the Immortal Emperor. It is up to us to create the happiness of mankind'. ”

Jacob finally senses that something is wrong, but Viola doesn't give him a chance to interject.

"In the civil war, when our republican troops were defeated," Viola did not skimp at all, which made the expressions of several Wehrmacht generals present very embarrassed, "It is not me who saves the republic, nor is it a particularly brave and talented general, let alone a foreign power." It was countless ordinary German people who bravely stood up and watered the flowers of victory with their blood. ”

Lin Youde glanced at the officers and soldiers of the National Volunteers who were in charge of guarding near the venue, and the non-commissioned officers and officers who had experienced that war all had proud expressions, and the medals on their chests were shining.

The dignitaries in the room looked at each other, presumably seeing Viola's words as an expression of the goddess's position on her.

"So, Mr. Jacob." Viola took a step further, "If the Austrians want to be free, they must rely on yourselves. Only if you have the **** to stand up, can you truly be free. ”

"However, the enemy is very strong, and we are ...... on our own."

"Mr. Jacob," Lin Youde spoke, looking at Jacob's cold gaze, "I despise you. You don't believe in the power of the people at all, you're just an ugly speculator, and now please leave my palace. ”

After speaking, Lin Youde gestured to the officers of the People's Volunteer Corps who were on guard under the pillars of the cloister, and the officers immediately led two loaded soldiers through the crowd at the venue to Lin Youde.

Their majestic steps and posture as they passed through the crowd caused the Wehrmacht generals present to generally raise their evaluation of the morale and will of the People's Army.

The officer stood in front of Lin Youde and reported loudly: "Your Excellency, Advisor, please instruct." ”

"Send this gentleman politely to the train station."

"Yes!"
