Chapter 996: Joint Investigation?

Maybe it's because of Vidocq. Emmanuel II himself did not think that the Austrian Empire would choose to spare the Kingdom of Sardinia, and this time he did not lose his temper as he had done the last time, but discussed the joint investigation with great seriousness.

"Mr. Ambassador, has the Austrian Empire decided that our Kingdom of Sardinia is suspected of harboring criminals?" Victor. Emmanuel II said to the Austrian ambassador in a flat tone.

"Your Majesty!" The Austrian ambassador smiled slightly at Victor. Emmanuel II, in a hypocritical reply, replied, "Although I am more than willing to believe that your country will not deceive us on this matter, your country needs further examination!

This is all about keeping the Apennine Peninsula safe, and we hope you will forgive us for our actions!"

"In that case!" Victor. Emmanuel II discussed with great seriousness, "Why don't we expand the scope of the joint investigation and include more countries participating in this investigation!"

Victor. Emmanuel II's proposal made the Austrian ambassador a little unsure of his thoughts, "Your Majesty, I don't understand what you mean!"

"I mean it simply!" Victor. Emmanuel II said to the Austrian ambassador with a stern expression, "Since it is to prevent the assassination of the monarchy by Italian nationalism, then why don't we talk about further expanding the scope of the investigation!"

The Duchy of Modena, the Duchy of Tuscany, the Papal States, and the Kingdom of Naples should all be investigated!

Only in this way will we be able to completely eliminate the extremist forces in the Apennines!

Moreover, the countries of the joint investigation should not be limited to Sardinia and the Austrian Empire, and I ask that more countries should be brought together to preserve the peace in the Apennines.

I think that the French Empire and the Kingdom of Britain should join in maintaining harmony with the Austrian Empire and the Kingdom of Sardinia in the Apennine Peninsula!!"

Victor. As soon as Emmanuel II's words fell, the Austrian ambassador also frowned.

Although it is said that Victor. There is some truth in what Emmanuel II said, but anyone with a discerning eye can see that this action of the Austrian Empire does not really want to help the Kingdom of Sardinia solve the extremist forces.

The purpose of the Austrian Empire was to fight against the Kingdom of Sardinia, and the so-called elimination of extremist forces was only a pretext.

However, this excuse could not be used by the Austrian Empire, even if it was just to fool around, it was much better than not to use it.

Therefore, in Victor. Emmanuel II, having made this proposal, put the Austrian ambassador in a dilemma at once!

"This ......" the Austrian ambassador hesitated for a long time. Emmanuel II replied, "I need to ask about the country!"

It's done!

Victor. Emmanuel II couldn't help but clench his fists, for the current Kingdom of Sardinia, the later the Austrian Empire invaded, the more favorable it was for the Kingdom of Sardinia.

"Absolutely! Mr. Ambassador!" Victor. Emmanuel II replied to the Austrian ambassador with a smile on his face, and then asked tentatively, "What about an ultimatum between our two countries......

"I'll report back to the Austrian Empire as soon as possible!" The Austrian ambassador to Victor. Emmanuel II replied, "It will not delay him long!"

"Then please!" Victor. Emmanuel II responded politely to the Austrian ambassador.

After the departure of the Austrian ambassador, Victor. Emmanuel II clenched his fists and then made a victory gesture.

Victor today. Emmanuel II reluctantly delayed the Austrian Empire's attack, and it was up to the Kingdom of Sardinia to pull out a final ally.

Therefore, Victor. Emmanuel II pinned his hopes on Cavour, far away in Paris.

[PS: Victor. Emmanuel II did not know Jérôme. The Bonapartes were not in Paris, and they also did not know that Cavourer was not in Paris. 】

However, Victor. Iman

Unbeknownst to Nouel II, Cavour, whom he had in mind, was now suffering from a similar predicament.

Although Cavour has found the emperor and empress, he has never been able to get the opportunity to meet the emperor.

And the reason why Cavour will encounter the cold bench is, of course, because of Queen Augusta.

According to information obtained by Cavour (in fact, Jérôme. Bonaparte and Augusta deliberately revealed it to him), the reason why the emperor was reluctant to see him was because of the influence of the empress.

The reason why the empress was reluctant to let the emperor meet with Cavour was naturally related to the fact that the emperor was assassinated by Orsini last time.

Legend has it that after the assassination, the Empress became extremely disgusted with the Kingdom of Sardinia, believing that the Emperor had been assassinated solely because Sardinian had not managed the Sardinians well.

Therefore, Empress Augusta refused to allow Cavour to meet him, and at the same time did not want the emperor to meet with him.

Even if Cavour has been trying to get to the same point as Jérôme in the near future. When Bonaparte met, he only got a verbal promise of "the Empress will return to Paris, goodbye".

Cavour, who had no choice, had no choice but to wait and fulfill his promise, not knowing that the whole of Sardinia had ushered in earth-shaking changes.

Of course, Cavour did not know that the Sardinian ambassador was coming in the direction where he was.

……

When the Sardinian ambassador's carriage arrived in Jérôme. While Bonaparte and Augusta were around the place, he quickly found Cavour.

"What are you doing?" Cavour looked curiously at the Sardinian ambassador.

"Prime Minister Cavour...... No, Minister Cavour!" The Ambassador of Sardinia replied to Cavour breathlessly.

"What the hell is going on?" A sense of foreboding rushed into Cavour's heart, and he knew that the Sardinian ambassador was not far away, and there must be something urgent.

At this moment, he did not want to hear from the ambassador of the Kingdom of Sardinia the news of the internal turmoil in the Kingdom of Sardinia.

Unfortunately, contrary to his wishes, the Ambassador of Sardinia reported the recent events to Cavour.

Cavour subconsciously pursed his lips when he heard the Austrian Empire's ultimatum to them.

When he heard that he had been removed from the post of prime minister by the king, that he had retained only the foreign secretary, that Ramamour had been appointed a liberal, and that the liberal cabinet and parliament had been dissolved, his expression was visibly depressed.

He came to Paris in the hope of a liberal rapprochement with the French Empire.

Well, now the French Empire did not need to settle with Sardinia, because Sardinia itself had dissolved its cabinet and parliament on its own.

"How dare they! How dare they!" Cavour paced back and forth, babbling back and forth.

"Minister Cavour, what do we do now?" The Ambassador of Sardinia asked Cavourdo.

After a moment of silence, Cavour gritted his teeth and replied to the ambassador of the Kingdom of Sardinia, "Wait!"

"But the Turin side...... Are you really not worried?" The Embassy of Sardinia said to Minister Cavour with a worried expression.

Cavour shrugged his shoulders and replied to the Sardinian ambassador with a wry smile, "Worried! How can you not worry! But is it useful to say that now? We must meet His Majesty the Emperor in the shortest possible time!

And then after the patronage of the French Empire, it will do!

Otherwise, what's the use of me going back!"

"Minister Cavour, then we should see Jérôme as soon as possible. O Your Majesty Bonaparte!" The Ambassador of the Kingdom of Sardinia continued.

"Of course I knew it should be as soon as possible!" Cavour replied to the ambassador of the Kingdom of Sardinia in a slightly annoyed tone, "But this kind of thing is not quick to solve!

His Majesty the Emperor has to summon me!"

"What! Your Majesty has not summoned you!" The Ambassador of Sardinia looked at Cavourdo with a serious face.

"Nope!" Cavour smiled wryly again, "Your Majesty told me that I had to wait

After Her Majesty leaves! He will meet with me, otherwise Her Majesty will not agree to meet at all!"

"Why doesn't Her Majesty agree?" The Ambassador of Sardinia looked at Cavourdo suspiciously.

"It's not because of the previous assassination!" Cavour sighed and smiled bitterly at the Sardinian ambassador, "That assassination of Orsini really hurt me!

Her Majesty thinks that this prime minister cannot govern the Kingdom of Sardinia, which has led to a series of problems, and therefore will not agree!"

"Minister Cavour, how do I report to Turin!" The ambassador of the Kingdom of Sardinia asked Minister Cavour again.

"You just say that I am communicating with His Majesty the Emperor, and the results are expected to be available soon!" Cavour said to the ambassador of the Kingdom of Sardinia.

He understands the current Victor. Emmanuel II was also under a lot of pressure, as Cavour did not want to pass on the pressure from his side to Victor. Emmanuel II's body.

The Ambassador of Sardinia, apparently aware of these people's affairs, nodded and said to Cavour, "Good! But you'd better meet with His Majesty the Emperor as soon as possible!"

"Of course I know that the sooner we meet, the better, and that will have to wait until Her Majesty leaves!!" Cavour said a word to the Sardinian minister.

In the afternoon after the departure of the Sardinian ambassador, Empress Augusta left the countryside in a carriage.

Cavour was also able to be captured by Jérôme. Bonaparte came before him.

Jérôme. Bonaparte said apologetically to Cavour, "Mr. Cavour, I'm sorry to keep you waiting! Augusta refuses to go back first, so I've been putting it off until this time to meet you!"

"It's okay!" Cavour, of course, can't speak outright about Jérôme. Bonaparte was not good, "Your Majesty can find time to meet with me!"

I'm so honored!"
