Chapter 982: The Pig Teammates of the Royal Palace of Turin
Cavour, who left the royal palace in Turin, naturally did not hear Victor. Emmanuel II cursed himself because at this moment the Count of Cavour was returning to his residence in a carriage.
When Count Cavour entered the mansion, a beautiful woman with a pretty face was quietly at the door, and she was Countess Cavour.
"You're back!" The Countess of Cavour first glanced at the collection in Count Cavour's hand, and then said in a delicate and gentle voice.
"Hmm!" Count Cavour nodded in response to the lady.
Immediately afterwards, the Countess of Cavour curiously asked the Count of Cavour, Vidocq. His Majesty Emmanuel II asked him in the middle of the night for something.
"Your Majesty, I really don't know how to be considerate at all!" Countess Cavour grumbled quietly.
After listening to the lady's complaints, the Count of Cavour immediately reprimanded the Countess of Cavour with a straight face, "What do you know about a woman!
His Majesty has summoned me to come over, and there must be something important to discuss with me!
Otherwise, he wouldn't have called me over so late!!
……」
Cavour began to gush about Victor. Emmanuel II, Madame looked at Cavour with a blank face, and Cavour's voice gradually became quieter until it disappeared completely.
Immediately afterwards, the Countess of Cavour said to the Count of Cavour again, "Where did you get those gifts in your hand?"
"From the Royal Palace, of course!" Cavour pulled out a jewel the size of a pigeon's egg and said to his wife with a hint of pride on his face, "These are the treasures of the royal palace of Turin, and each one of them is a treasure of great value!"
Countess Cavour had a surprised look on her face when she heard this, "When has our Majesty become so generous!"
Cavold collected his smile and said with a wry smile on the corner of his mouth, "Of course these things are not for me, and Your Majesty has entrusted me with a gift to France!"
If it weren't for the fact that this crisis was too tricky, Your Majesty would never have allowed me to take this gem!"
Count Cavour's remarks startled Countess Cavour, and she hurriedly asked Count Cavour, "What kind of crisis is it!
Is the French army coming?"
Cavour smiled lightly, shook his head and replied to his wife, "Not really!
It's just that France is now asking us to restrict the liberal press and ban nationalist organizations in the country!"
Countess Cavour, who only knew a little about salons and makeup, immediately relaxed with a slightly nervous expression after hearing that France would not attack, "It turned out that it was not an invasion!"
Immediately, Countess Cavour's eyes lit up, and she said to Cavour again, "Cavour, I remember that you were bullied by those fatherless parliamentarians in the parliament before, and you said at that time that sooner or later you would let those liberals know how powerful you are!"
Isn't this a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!"
Cavour said with a cold expression, "Stupid!"
Countess Cavour's expression froze, and she also showed a stubborn expression on her face, "Where am I stupid!
Camelot. Ponso. Cavour, have you forgotten who helped you deal with your wounds when you were beaten by those councillors?"
Count Cavour's originally cold eyes instantly softened after hearing these words.
The woman in front of her is really not good enough in terms of political smell, but she really loves herself more, and she can't be too harsh on her.
Cavour patiently told his wife that what he had said before was nothing more than angry words, and that liberalism was bound to the Kingdom of Sardinia.
For the sake of Sardinia, he had to keep these liberals.
"How are you going to keep them?" The Countess of Cavour asked Cavour again, "The one who wants to ban them is the Emperor of the French Empire!"
Don't
Are you ready for the Kingdom of Sardinia to attack France with a warm stone?"
"The Kingdom of Sardinia really can't collide with the French Empire!!" The Count of Cavour first affirmed part of his wife's view: "But the Kingdom of Sardinia does not need to be in a confrontation with the French Empire!"
"Don't have to be tough? What are you going to do? Personally ran to France to convince Jérôme. Emperor Bonaparte?" Countess Cavour said to Count Cavour.
"Indeed!" Cavour nodded and replied to his wife, "I will carry the gift and depart for Paris tomorrow morning!"
"Why so fast!" Countess Cavour asked Count Cavour.
"Avoid long nights and dreams!" Count Cavour said cautiously, and then a wry smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "Who knows, the French Empire will suddenly cut off communication with the Kingdom of Sardinia!"
At that point, our situation will be considered truly dangerous!
According to the observations of our troops in the Aus-Sa border area, the Austrian Empire has been moving its troops frequently for the last week or so.
Although the Austrian Imperial Brigade was ostensibly a routine military exercise to guard against ultra-nationalist forces, I always felt that something was wrong.
And the governor of Lombardy-Venice has also been replaced by Albrecht, this guy is a ruthless character!
So I have to act as soon as possible!"
[PS: Radetzky died on March 5, 1858, which means that Albrecht was the governor of Lombardy-Venice after March 5. 】
Count Cavour revealed a feeling of impending rain between the lines, which made Countess Cavour subconsciously curl her neck.
"Alright! I'll clean up for you, and you can go to bed first!
It's less than four hours until dawn!" The wife, who knew that she couldn't help Count Cavour, could only do what she could to do what she could.
After hearing this, Count Cavour's heart warmed, he did not pretend to be reserved, but nodded directly to his wife and responded, "Then I will work hard for you!"
With that, the Count of Cavour went upstairs to sleep, while his wife prepared for him his belongings.
……
At 7 a.m. the next morning, Count Cavour arose from his sleep and went downstairs dressed himself.
When he arrived at the living room on the first floor, he found his wife in the living room on the first floor.
At this time, the Countess of Fur was curled up and resting on the sofa, and next to the sofa was a full suitcase.
Cavour glanced at his wife sleeping on the couch, then at the suitcase, and he whispered, "Thank you!"
Then he set out on the road to Paris with the thoughts that his wife had prepared for him, and his wife, who was sleeping soundly on the sofa, opened her eyes immediately after Cavour left,
At the same time, two tears involuntarily slipped from the corners of his wife's eyes.
……
Instead of going to the train station to catch the train to the Franco-Sasharian border, Cavour left his residence, but to the prime minister's office, where he had to explain some things before he could leave.
When Cavour arrived at the Prime Minister's building with a suitcase, he was surprised to find that Victor. King Emmanuel II and his ministers were all here.
"Your Majesty!" Cavour hurriedly put down the suitcase for you, and saluted the most noble being in the Kingdom of Sardinia.
"Mr. Cavour!" Victor. Emmanuel II walked in front of Cavour with a steady step, then gently patted Cavour on the shoulder with his hand and said, "Convince Jérôme. Bonaparte's responsibility will be entrusted to you!"
"Your Majesty, I will do my best!" Cavour spoke firmly to Victor. Emmanuel II said.
"Good!" Victor. Emmanuel II smiled and nodded.
Subsequently, Cavour responded to Victor. Emmanuel II whispered, "Your Majesty, I wish to be gone
This time in Turin!
The Kingdom of Sardinia must always be vigilant about military movements in the border areas!"
Victor. After hearing Cavour's suggestion, Emanuel II's eyes became extremely sharp, and he also lowered his voice and said to Cavour, "Cavour, do you think the Austrian Empire may attack us?"
"Your Majesty, I can't guarantee it!" Cavour shook his head at Victor. Emmanuel II said, "But I know that there is nothing wrong with being careful!
If we cut off communication with the French Empire because we have not negotiated with each other!
The Austrian Empire will not miss this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to attack us!
If the Austrian Empire really wants to attack us, I hope that Your Majesty will be able to stabilize the war as much as possible.
Only in a stalemate with the Austrian Empire will the Great Powers have a chance to strike!
At that time, only France will be able to save us!"
Victor. Emmanuel II also showed a stern expression, "I see! If the Austrian Empire does attack, I will do everything I can to hold them back!
If the kingdom of Sardinia is really at its end, I will allow you to use any means to save Sardinia."
"Yes!" Cavour replied in a sonorous tone, "Your Majesty, during the time I am away, you have to worry about the affairs of the Cabinet!"
"Nothing!" Victor. Emmanuel II shook his head and replied to Cavour.
Immediately afterwards, Cavour again asked Victor. Emmanuel II bowed and left.
Arriving at the train station by horse-drawn carriage, Cavour soon waited for the train to France and Sardinia.
Sitting on the train looking at the scenery in the distance, Cavour suddenly thought that he had not yet reminded Victor. His Majesty Emmanuel II should not appoint members of the army to replace him, even temporarily.
Because the military as prime minister will inevitably lead to a sliding government to the far right, the tension between parliament and the government will become greater.
"Your Majesty, I don't think I will let someone from the army take over for the time being! Probably not!"
