Otto. Feng. Prime Minister Bismarck hesitated for a moment, then said: "In this case, the Kingdom of Prussia is willing to give up the interests of the United States." However, the Kingdom of Prussia needed a promise that the Chinese Empire would not interfere in the disposal of Austria-Hungary. If the Chinese Empire agrees, then the United States can be handed over to the Chinese Empire to dispose of! ”

Ali. Pasha and Mustafa. Lester. The Pasha's eyes lit up, and they were originally afraid that the Kingdom of Prussia would continue to insist. In that case, it would be very difficult to mediate the dispute between the Chinese Empire and the Kingdom of Prussia. But unexpectedly, now the Kingdom of Prussia has taken the initiative to back down. This undoubtedly solves most of the problem.

Of course, Ali. Pasha and Mustafa. Lester. The Pasha were not fools, and then they knew the true intentions of the Kingdom of Prussia when they thought about it. The rivalry between the Kingdom of Prussia and the Chinese Empire for the interests of the United States was only a façade. What they really cared about was Austria-Hungary.

"Your Excellency, Prime Minister, we can come forward and exchange views with the Chinese Empire on this issue. However, whether the Chinese Empire will agree or not, we do not know. However, the Ottoman Turkish Empire would do its best to convince the Chinese Empire. "Ali. Pasha said.

"The Kingdom of Prussia has made concessions for this peace conference. If the Chinese Empire is still going to oppose it at this time, then we have to doubt the sincerity of the Chinese Empire. "Foreign Minister of the Kingdom of Prussia, El Brech. Feng. Ron said.

"Your Excellency, I don't think the Chinese Empire will care too much about Austria-Hungary. After all, they were not directly involved in the war against Austria-Hungary. But. The Ottoman Turks sent hundreds of thousands of troops to attack Austria-Hungary. If the Kingdom of Prussia wanted to dispose of Austria-Hungary, it needed the consent of the Ottoman Turkish Empire! "Mustafa. Lester. Pasha said.

The Ottoman Turkish Empire for the Kingdom of Prussia. It's also guarded. If they wanted to monopolize Austria-Hungary, it would be impossible. The Ottoman Turkish Empire in the Austro-Hungarian Empire. It also has its own interests.

"Of course, Austria-Hungary was destroyed by our two countries, and the interests of the Ottoman Turkish Empire should certainly be guaranteed when disposing of Austria-Hungary!" Otto. Feng. Chancellor Bismarck assured. After all, the Kingdom of Prussia wanted to co-opt the Ottoman Empire, which made it impossible for them to ignore the interests of the Ottoman Empire when dealing with Austria-Hungary. In that case, all the previous efforts will be in vain. Without the support of the Ottoman Empire, the Kingdom of Prussia wanted to fight the Chinese Empire on its own. It's too difficult.

"That's the best. There is no doubt that there are many things where our two countries can cooperate at this peace conference. The Chinese Empire is powerful, and in order to ensure our interests, we can strengthen cooperation! "Ali. Pasha also said with a smile.

Although, the Chinese Empire was too strong, and the Ottoman Turkish Empire was unwilling to be an enemy of the Chinese Empire. However, in order to guarantee their own interests. They could only choose to cooperate with the Kingdom of Prussia temporarily. As for whether we want to deepen cooperation in the future, it depends on the situation at that time.

"Ladies and gentlemen, if there is no objection, then we will take our leave!" Ali. Pasha said. Since the Prussians were willing to give up the interests of the United States. The condition was that the Chinese Empire did not interfere in the disposal of Austria-Hungary. Then, they had to rush to the embassy of the Chinese Empire in the Ottoman Turkish Empire and explain these conditions to the Chinese Empire. That's the only way. It can be guaranteed that it will be able to be officially carried out tomorrow.

"Of course, please!" Otto. Feng. Prime Minister Bismarck knew they wanted to rush to the Chinese embassy. Naturally, they won't be retained anymore. In this peace meeting, it will definitely be full of a lot of behind-the-scenes deals. And this. It was precisely the need for the host, the Ottoman Turkish Empire, to coordinate. Otherwise, it will be very difficult for this peace meeting to come to a successful conclusion.

After leaving the embassy of the Kingdom of Prussia in the Ottoman Turkish Empire, Ali. Pasha and Mustafa. Lester. The Pasha breathed a sigh of relief, and what they feared most was that the Kingdom of Prussia continued to maintain a tough attitude. In this case, the Chinese Empire will certainly not compromise and back down. At that time, the peace conference will probably end in failure. Fortunately, the attitude of the Prussians was quite good. In this case, it will also be conducive to the continuation of the peace conference.

When Ali. Pasha and Mustafa. Lester. When Pasha arrived at the Chinese Embassy, it was already in full bloom. At this time, the Chinese crown prince Long Hua and the members of the delegation, after having dinner together, had already returned to their rooms and began to study. He is still a student at the Imperial Army University, and although he is going on a trip to the Ottoman Empire, he cannot afford to leave his schoolwork behind. So, he only used his evening time to study. As for the reception of Ali. Pasha and Mustafa. Lester. The matter of Pasha was handed over to Lin Zihao and Wei Yuan.

"Two Pashas, please take a seat!" Lin Zihao beckoned the two to sit down. Wei Yuan asked the embassy staff to bring fragrant tea.

"Your Excellency Prime Minister, I'm sorry to disturb you so late. However, in order for the peace meeting to be able to continue until the end of the Shun lì, we have no other way! "Ali. Pasha looked apologetic.

"Your Excellency Pasha is strict, Your Excellency is busy for the peace meeting, which is worthy of admiration! This afternoon, the attitude of the Empire is tough, however, it is for the good of the Empire, and we cannot back down, nor can we back down. I hope His Excellency Pasha will understand! Lin Zihao also said.

"Your Excellency Prime Minister, I can understand that everyone is working for the good of their respective countries. However, the Ottoman Turkish Empire hoped for a complete peace meeting. Therefore, I hope that you will remain calm during the negotiations. "Ali. Pasha said.

Of course, the Chinese Empire also hoped that the Peace Conference would succeed. However, we still say that in the peace conference, the interests of the empire must be guaranteed first, otherwise, the empire will not hesitate to take a single action to protect the interests of the empire! Lin Zihao said. However, the hardline attitude in his words has not been able to change. The current Chinese Empire is no longer the backward and decadent Qing Dynasty that it used to be, and no country can make the Chinese Empire bow its head, let alone harm the legitimate interests of the Chinese Empire.

"Your Excellency, Prime Minister, we have no intention of harming the interests of the Chinese Empire. However, it is normal for disagreements to arise in negotiations. We hope that you can resolve these differences through negotiations! "Mustafa. Lester. Pasha said.

"Of course, however, just as we talked about this afternoon's disposition plan for the United States, the Chinese Empire will absolutely not allow other countries to interfere in the disposition of the United States!" Lin Zihao reiterated this point.

"Your Excellency, the Chinese Empire has the power to dispose of the United States, and the Ottoman Turkish Empire supports it. We have already talked to the Kingdom of Prussia, and they have promised to renounce their interests in the United States. "Ali. Pasha said.

"Oh? Are the Prussians so good at talking? Imperial Prime Minister Lin Zihao and Foreign Minister Wei Yuan were both a little surprised.

"However, the Prussians also had one condition, that is, the Chinese Empire must not interfere in the disposition of Austria-Hungary." Ali. Pasha continued.

"Austria-Hungary? Did the Prussians want to dominate Austria-Hungary? That's impossible! Lin Zihao immediately shook his head.

"Your Excellency Prime Minister, the Chinese Empire has not participated in the war against Austria-Hungary, and there is no reason to interfere in the handling of Austria-Hungary!" Mustafa. Lester. Pasha said hurriedly.

"Yes, it is true that the Chinese Empire did not send an army to attack Austria-Hungary. However, the navy of the Chinese Empire sent warships to attack the coast of Austria-Hungary. Foreign Minister Wei Yuan said.

Suddenly, Ali. Pasha and Mustafa. Lester. Pasha was a little speechless. In doing so, the Chinese Empire is undoubtedly a bit of a mess. If this continues, will the peace conference be able to continue?

"Your Excellency Prime Minister, Your Excellency the Foreign Minister, the Ottoman Turkish Empire hopes that the Chinese Empire will take a step back. The Kingdom of Prussia had given up its interests in North America, and everyone had given way in order to facilitate the continuation of the peace conference. "Ali. Pasha said.

"Your Excellency Pasha, would the Ottoman Empire want to see the emergence of a powerful empire that annexed Austria-Hungary? This is not a good thing for the Ottoman Turkish Empire! Lin Zihao said suddenly.

"Uh......" Ali. Pasha didn't know what to say for a moment.

"The Chinese Empire, although powerful, was far from the Ottoman Empire and did not pose a threat to the Ottoman Empire. However, with a strong German Empire, this is not necessarily the case. Foreign Minister Wei Yuan also said.

"The Kingdom of Prussia will not annex Austria-Hungary, the Ottoman Turkish Empire is also involved in the war against Austria-Hungary, we will not let the Prussians succeed!" Ali. Pasha said firmly.

Lin Zihao nodded: "If this is the case, then the Chinese Empire can give up its interest in Austria-Hungary." However, the Chinese Empire also hoped that the Ottoman Turkish Empire would give the Chinese Empire a guarantee. That is, the Ottoman Turkish Empire had to prevent the Kingdom of Prussia from annexing Austria-Hungary. ”

Ali. Pasha and Mustafa. Lester. Pasha whispered a few words, then nodded.

"Preventing the emergence of a powerful German Empire is also very beneficial to the Ottoman Turkish Empire!" Ali. Pasha said solemnly. (To be continued......)
