When the clock in the ambassador's hall pointed to 1:55, the French Foreign Minister, Valewski, appeared in front of everyone.

Everyone, including Count Clarendon, stood up and saluted the minister in front of them.

As the arbiter of the entire peace conference, Valevsky first glanced at the eight ministers sitting at the round table, and then glanced at the envoys of various countries in the audience, and then slowly said: "Everyone, please take a seat! ”

When everyone in the room heard Valewski's words, they all sat down, and Walevsky slowly walked to the center of the round table with their backs to Jérôme. Bonaparte sat down with a portrait of Augusta.

Sitting in his seat, Varevsky waited quietly for the meeting to begin, and soon the floor clock in the hall sounded twice, and the time had come to 2 o'clock when the meeting began.

As the arbiter of the conference, Valevsky stood up with a solemn face and solemnly declared: "Thanks to the Emperor of the French Empire, Grand Duke of Luxembourg, Jérôme. His Majesty the Emperor Bonaparte, by grace, has appointed me as the presiding officer of this peace conference in the Near East!

I would like to express my sincere gratitude to all the ministers and envoys present here for being able to come to Paris in the spirit of peace and to participate in this meeting that hails the future of all Europe!

I sincerely hope that through this meeting, we can advance the path of peaceful development in Europe!

Let the light of reason re-illuminate the whole of Europe......"

Walewski began by choosing the tone of Hongda and named the main theme of this meeting, that is, to completely end the war between Britain and France against the Russian Empire.

The so-called concept of peace in the follow-up is nothing more than routine nonsense spoken by Valevsky, and everyone present knows the preciousness of peace, but peace is not worth mentioning at all in the face of absolute interests.

If there is not enough interest as the driving force for the adventure, all those present will become pacifists.

Although everyone present knew these simple truths, they still had to listen patiently to Valevsky's end.

After all, this is a right peculiar to the State of arbitration.

When Valevsky finished talking about the concept of peaceful development, everyone present also applauded Walevsky's speech as usual.

"Thank you!" Valevsky humbly bowed to everyone present, and then sat down again.

After the applause was over, Valevsky glanced at the crowd and said to them in a subdued tone: "Since we are a peace conference in the Near East, then the countries of the Near East are indispensable!"

Minister Fouad ......"

Valevsky turned his gaze to the Ottoman Foreign Minister Fouad, who hurried to his feet after hearing Valewski's shout.

Immediately afterwards, Valevsky said to Fouad: "As one of the most important countries in the Near East, I want you to take the lead!" What do you think? ”

"Absolutely!" Fouad nodded in response to Valevsky.

"Let's get started!" Valevsky replied with a smile,

Minister Fouad, who received the signal from Valevsky to "open fire", immediately opened fire, directly denouncing the persecution of the Ottoman Empire by the Russian Empire, and claiming that the war was completely provoked by the Russian Empire and therefore the Russian Empire should be fully responsible.

Immediately afterwards, Fouad put forward the terms of "himself" (in fact, he had negotiated with Valevsky).

In addition to the conditions previously promised by the Russian Empire, there was also the hope that the Russian Empire would withdraw from the Caucasus, so that the Caucasus could become an independent state, and at the same time give the Ottoman Empire a compensation of 5 million pounds.

In the face of Fouad's conditions, both Nisserrodi, representing the government of Duke Golitsyn, and Ambassador Gorchakov, representing the orthodox monarchy, objected.

Ambassador Gorchakov said that Fouad's behavior was to take advantage of the fire of the Russian Empire, and their purpose was not to make up for their own losses, but to solve the Russian Empire once and for all.

Nesherro also claimed that Fouad's conditions were too harsh and that they clearly wanted Russia to die.

He believed that every country with a conscience would not allow this to happen, and after saying that, Nesherro looked at Valevsky with deep meaning.

Seeing that the goal had been achieved, Valevsky also said to Fouad, "Minister Fouad, we are discussing how to maintain peace in the Near East once and for all, not how to destroy Russia!" Your conditions are a bit harsh! ”

After hearing this, Fouad hurriedly apologized to Nesherrodi and Gorchakov, and then sat down again.

Valevsky continued: "Minister Fouad's conditions are indeed a bit harsh for the Russian Empire, but they also start our next talks with a good start, and I hope you will speak enthusiastically!" ”

Later, Valevsky looked at the audience and said to the state envoys sitting in the audience: "If the representatives in the audience have any unique understanding, they can also stand up and speak!"

We are not just going to face the whole Near East, but the whole of Europe!

Each and every one of you has the potential to become the cornerstone of peace in Europe as a whole! ”

As soon as Valevsky's words fell, Prince Chartorysky got up from the audience and said to Minister Valevsky: "Your Excellency Valevsky, can I let this old man say a few words!" ”

The nine ministers sitting at the round table had different expressions on their faces, and the representatives of Austria and Britain had a smile on their faces; The faces of the representatives of Sweden, Szambia, Turkey, and France were blank, while the faces of the representatives of Russia and Prussia showed expressions of helplessness.

"Absolutely!" Minister Valevsky deliberately pretended to be unaware and asked Czartorysky: "Mr. Czartorysky, I don't know which country you represent now?" ”

"Minister Valevski, I am representing my native Poland!" Chartoryski replied solemnly to Wah La's New Year.

"Poland, I remember that Poland should be under the Russian Empire! Aren't you and Russia supposed to belong to the same monarchy? Valevsky replied to Prince Chartorysky as if he had no knowledge.

"Your Excellency, it is true that we developed under the patronage of His Majesty Emperor Nicholas I, but now we have broken away from the rule of the Russian Empire! Now Poland is an independent country! ”

Despite the fact that these conversations were rehearsed in advance, Prince Czartorysky still showed an excited expression when he said "Polish independence".

"Independence!" Minister Valevsky turned his gaze to Ambassador Gorchakov and Nesherrody and asked: "Mr. Nescherrodie, Mr. Gorchakov, is what Prince Chartorysky said true?" ”

"It's true!" Neschelrody and Gorchakov responded in unison.

Then he did not forget to put gold on his face and say that it was because of the benevolence of their monarch that the Polish people became independent.

Prince Chartorysky did not refute the fact that Ambassador Nesherrodi and Ambassador Gorchakov had driven the Polish people out of the Warsaw region for independence, and that the Russian Empire had withdrawn on its own initiative.

Although Poland and Russia are destined to become enemies, he still hopes that the time for the two countries to completely turn around will be a little later.

"Mr. Czartokoski, what regime are you going to introduce in Poland?" Valevsky asked Czartoryski again.

"Mr. Varaiwski, we are going to introduce a monarchy in Poland!" Prince Chartorysky said to Valevsky, "And we have chosen the right monarch in the German region!" ”

"Can you easily reveal who your chosen monarch is?" Valevsky then addressed Prince Chartorysky, saying that the purpose of this was only to tell the mouth of Chartorysky about the choice of the monarch of Prussia and the Russian Empire and the Kingdom of Poland.

"We have chosen the Archduke Maximilian of good character as the future Grand Duke of Warsaw!" Czartoryski vs. Jérôme. Bonaparte replied.

Immediately afterwards, Mandolfel, who was a Prussian minister, disagreed with Nesherrody and Gorchakov in disagreeing with Czartorysky.

If Poland were handed over to the Habsburgs, Prussia and Russia would be in a dangerous situation!

And Count Clarendon also opened his mouth at this time to express his attitude: "I think that Archduke Maximilian can become a good monarch, what do you think of Mr. Bauer?" ”

Clarendon turned his attention to Bauer, who needed the Austrian Empire to make a statement.

"I don't know for what purpose Prussia and Russia prevented Archduke Maximilian from going to Warsaw to succeed to the position of Grand Duke, but we, the Austrian Empire, strongly supported Poland's decision!" Count Bauer said unflinchingly to the representatives of Russia and Prussia.

With regard to the succession of Archduke Maximilian to the Grand Duke of Warsaw, the Austrian Empire was already advancing with the attitude that the war between Prussia and the Russian Empire would also be done.

"Mr. Mandolfer, Mr. Nesherrody, Mr. Gorchakov, what are the reasons for your objection?" Minister Valevsky asked the three ministers.

"The Kingdom of Poland, as a former vassal state of the Russian Empire, deserves to be the right heir for whom we personally choose!" Ambassador Gorchakov replied to Valevsky with great emotion, "So I propose that a suitable person should be found in some small state in the German region to be the monarch!" ”

"I agree!" Mandolfil followed suit.
