Chapter 1,000 Intimidation of Sardinia

Richard. After Metternich left the Tuileries again, Jérôme. Bonaparte ordered Basilio to go to the Sardinian embassy and ...... Prime Minister Cavour No, Chancellor Cavour, please come to the Tuileries!

I don't know how long it took for the knock to reach Jérôme again. Bonaparte's ear, Jérôme. Bonaparte lowered his head and said lightly, "Please come in!"

The sound of the door opening reached Jérôme. Bonaparte's ear was followed by Basilio's voice, "Your Majesty, I have brought Count Cavour here!"

Jérôme. Bonaparte then raised his head and looked at Basilio in the distance and Cavour behind him.

"You go out first! I'm going to have a good talk with Cavour!" Jérôme. Bonaparte replied faintly to Basilio.

"Yes!" Basilio immediately sent a letter to Jérôme. Bonaparte bowed, then left.

The door closed again, and only Jérôme was left in the room. Bonaparte and Cavour.

"Count Cavour, come and sit!" Jérôme. Bonaparte pointed to the chair across from him and said to Cavour.

Cavour listened to Jérôme. Bonaparte's order, step by step, went to Jérôme. Opposite Bonaparte, then sit down.

After the two sat facing each other for a while, Jérôme. Bonaparte asked Cavour again, "Count Cavour, do you know what I have come to you for?"

Cavour shook his head and looked at Jérôme with a slightly confused look in his eyes. Bonaparte said, "Your Majesty, I don't know!"

Caught Cavour's eyes revealing a confused Jérôme. Bonaparte, without doubt, did not really know whether Cavour.

"That's good! Since you don't know, I'll tell you!" Jérôme. Bonaparte opened his mouth and put Richard. The contents of the telegram that Metternich had just described in his study, polished and redacted, and then told Cavour.

Cavour hears Victor. When Emmanuel II wanted to solve the crisis facing Sardinia by expanding the way of investigating the member states, he suddenly realized that Victor. Emmanuel II's approach was indeed better than his simple desire to rely on the French Empire.

Thinking of this, Cavour couldn't help but have some regret in his heart for his diplomatic mistakes.

On weekdays, he always tells Victor. Emmanuel II, the method of unifying Italy of the Kingdom of Sardinia could only rely on the contradictions between the international community.

Unexpectedly, this time the Austrian Empire invaded the Kingdom of Sardinia, and he was so dazed that he did not want to rely on international adjustment, but instead relied on the assistance of the French Empire.

There was a mistake!

"Count Cavour, Count Cavour!" While Cavour was deep in thought, Jérôme. Bonaparte's voice came.

Coming to his senses, Cavour hurried to Jérôme. Bonaparte replied, "Your Majesty, I am!"

"Mr. Cavour, you are very honest with your King Victor. What do you think of the joint investigation mentioned by Emmanuel II?" Jérôme. Bonaparte smiled hypocritically and said to Cavour.

"Your Majesty, I do not know when or where our King made this proposal!" Cavour vs. Jérôme. Bonaparte replied, "However, I personally think that a joint investigation will be beneficial to the Kingdom of Sardinia!

I believe that the French Empire will be able to do justice to the Kingdom of Sardinia in a fair and just manner!"

Nonsense! Of course, the joint investigation will be good for you, but not good for France! It would be even worse if you were to bring Britain in! Jérôme. Bonaparte said secretly.

Although Jérôme. Bonaparte knew Victor. Emmanuel II's request for a joint investigation was indeed detrimental to France, but he was not clear either.

So, Jérôme. Bonaparte tapped his hand lightly twice on the table, making a contemplative motion, and after a moment he looked up again and said to Cavour, "It is good that a joint investigation is good, but do you know why the Austrian Empire came to tell me about it?"

"Your Majesty, I don't know!" Although Cavour's mind was already "guessing

I want to "to Jérôme. Bonaparte wanted to say something next, but he still had to pretend that he didn't know anything.

"The Austrian Empire wants me to be on the same line as them!" Jérôme. Bonaparte replied to Cavour.

"Your Majesty, please do not promise the Austrian Empire!" After hearing this, Cavour hurried to Jérôme. Bonaparte said.

"However, the Austrian Empire said that they would be willing to grant France some convenience in the Rhineland question, provided that I could accede to this request!" Jérôme. Bonaparte defrauded Cavour with a false condition, and he believed that Cavour would not find out.

Even if Cavour wanted to find out, Jérôme. Bonaparte also had the ability to get the Austrian Empire to cooperate with France to deceive the Kingdom of Sardinia.

In this world, there is no country and money that cannot get by.

As long as the French Empire is willing to throw money at it, then all problems are not a problem.

Historically, for Savoy and Nice, France invested hundreds of millions of francs, killed nearly 10,000 people, and offended the Pope.

Now Jérôme. Bonaparte only needed to spend 600 million francs on an interest-free loan to gag the Austrian Empire, and he could take Savoy and Nice, a deal that was too worthwhile for him.

"Your Majesty, please don't be fooled!" Cavour hurriedly poured dirty water on the Austrian Empire, "The Austrian Empire is only used to deceive you with false promises!"

"So, Mr. Cavour, is the promise you gave me a real promise or a false promise?" Jérôme. Bonaparte raised his eyebrows, and asked Count Cavour with a playful smile on the corner of his mouth.

"I'm ......," Cavour said in a firm tone after a moment of silence, "Your Majesty, I can guarantee that as long as the Kingdom of Sardinia survives this crisis, we will definitely hand over Savoy and Nice to you!"

"Mr. Cavour, remember your promise!" Jérôme. Bonaparte said to Count Cavour with a serious expression, "The most hated thing about me is a man who doesn't keep his promises!"

"Your Majesty! Please rest assured!" Cavour again against Jérôme. Bonaparte promised, and his mind was still thinking about how to pay the French Empire.

Immediately afterwards, Cavour returned from the Tuileries to the Embassy of Sardia in France, "Now send a telegram to the Kingdom of Sardinia saying that we have succeeded in getting the French Empire to support our request for an extended investigation!"

As long as the French Empire and the Kingdom of Britain investigate together, then the Austrian Empire has no reason to make things difficult for us again!"

"Minister Cavour, Nasavoy and Nice......" The Sardinian ambassador couldn't help but ask Cavour.

Prime Minister Cavour sighed and said to the Kingdom of Sardinia, "Savoy and Nice, you can only take one step at a time!"

……

Eyes turn to the Tuileries Palace, Jérôme. Bonaparte again ordered Cavour to inform Richard. Metternich.

"You send someone to tell Richard right away. Metternich, the French Empire will accede to the request of the Kingdom of Sardinia for a joint investigation!" Jérôme. Bonaparte told Basilio, "At the same time, ask their Lombard army to march at the same time as soon as they hear the appeal of the French Empire!"

"Yes!" Basilio hurried to Jérôme. Bonaparte said.

"Also, you're going to be right now. Minister Ruiz and Chief of the General Staff Niel have called me!" Jérôme. Bonaparte continued to arrange for Basilio.

Bajirio left again, and about half an hour later, Foreign Secretary de Brown. Ruiz appears with the Chief of the General Staff, Niel.

"Sit down!" Jérôme. Bonaparte got up and will. Ruiz and Neielle invited to sit down on the couch.

Immediately afterwards, Jérôme. Bonaparte told de l'Hon. Ruyslet expressed support for the Kingdom of Sardinia's call for a multinational joint investigation.

Morality. After hesitating for a moment, Ruiz asked, "Your Majesty, will this affect our relations with the Austrian Empire?"

Jérôme. Bonaparte shook his head at Germany. Ruiz replied, "No! I told in advance

The Austrian Empire!"

"I see!" Morality. Ruiz nodded to Jérôme. Bonaparte responded.

"Niel!" Jérôme. Bonaparte turned his gaze to Niel, "You now order the Alpine Front to be ready to go at any time!"

Niel was stunned for a moment and then asked Jérôme. Bonaparte said, "Your Majesty, who are we going to fight?"

Jérôme. Bonaparte gave Niel a blank look and responded, "None of us will fight! Of course, if the Kingdom of Sardinia is not willing to keep its promises, then you can attack Sardinia as well!"

"Your Majesty, what is your promise?" Niel asked Jérôme again. Bonaparte said.

Jérôme. Bonaparte ceded Cavour to Savoy and Nice in exchange for France's protection of Sardinia from the Austrian Empire. Ruiz.

"Your Majesty, please rest assured! If the Kingdom of Sardinia dares to break its word, the French army will surely let them know what regret is!" Niel vs. Jérôme. Bonaparte assured a word.

"That's it! That's all I have to say, you can go back to work!" Jérôme. Bonaparte vs. Nière and De. Ruiz said.

A day later, a spokesman for the French Foreign Ministry announced that the French Empire supported the multinational joint investigation proposed by the Kingdom of Sardinia.

As soon as this statement came out, the Austrian Empire's troops stationed in the border area of the Kingdom of Sardinia operated, and a small-scale solo incident was staged on the border between the Austrian Empire and the Kingdom of Sardinia.

In the days that followed, the nerves of the entire Kingdom of Sardinia were in a state of tension with the repeated provocations of the Austrian Empire.

So Cavour found Jérôme again. Bonaparte pleaded with Jérôme. Bonaparte thought of a countermeasure.
