Which Rome are you talking about?"

Faced with this question of the representatives of the royal families of Taixi, Zhu Jingyuan actually had a ...... in his heart It should be said that it is not very numerous.

Zhu Jingyuan knew that there were many things under the name Rome, and it was definitely a lot of money in Europe in this era.

It is precisely because the real Rome itself is gone, that it has become a lake account.

This is also the reason why Zhu Jingyuan moved the name of Rome out.

However, Zhu Jingyuan is not very clear about how many Romes there are in fact, how many Roman emperors there are, and what is the relationship between them.

I am not a professional Tessie history researcher, and I have never played a few European games in my previous life.

Of course, the European Storm is not real, and in terms of the Holy Roman Empire in reality, it is much more fragmented than the Shinra in the game.

So now Zhu Jingyuan is half-truth, and asked the Taixi court and royal representatives at the scene:

"With all due respect, it's a strange question, are there many more in Rome? So what are they?"

Zhu Jingyuan's question immediately ignited a discussion, or a dispute.

Lucia's prince Nikolai was the first to speak to steal the limelight:

"We, the Romanov royalty of the Lucian Empire, are descendants of Sophia, the last princess of the Roman Empire.

"So we are the present Rome, the successor of the Eastern Roman Empire, the Third Roman Empire."

Then the younger brother of the Austrian emperor, Duke Taishen, Karl Ludwig, that is, the famous Grand Duke Karl.

Although Archduke Karl felt that the Ming Dynasty had put the position of Rome out at this time, it was likely that there was a pit waiting for the Europeans.

But considering this question is a question raised by Zhu Jingyuan, a young man, and the pit in it should not be very big.

The point is that in the face of this kind of claim, it is impossible for him to retreat as a representative of the royal family, so he will directly declare now:

"The Habsburg dynasty of our Austrian Empire still retains the claim of the Holy Roman Emperor, so we Austria is also the legitimate successor of the Holy Roman Empire, that is, the Western Roman Empire."

Zhu Jingyuan nodded slightly when he heard this:

"So, this Rome is divided, Lucia is the successor to Eastern Rome, and Austria is the successor to Western Rome?"

When Zhu Jingyuan said this, the Prussians over there couldn't help it.

In what is now Prussia, German-Prussian nationalism is rapidly coalescing.

Now they actually care more about the German name.

So now that others simply talk about Rome, the Prussians may be able to put up with it.

If someone from another country locked up the Holy Roman Empire, the Prussians probably didn't particularly care.

But Austria is different.

Austria was an obstacle to the complete unification of the German regions by Prussia and was the only competitor to the de facto unification of the Proto-HRE region.

In the current perception of the royal families of the two countries, the relationship between the two countries is like that of the Northern and Southern Dynasties in ancient China.

In addition, as a European royal family, it is impossible to easily relax in the face of the claims they once had.

Especially in the face of Austria, when the contradictions between the two sides were already obvious, it was difficult for the Prussian royal family to give in easily.

The younger brother of the Emperor of Prussia, the twenty-four-year-old Frederick Heinrich Karl, followed by the Archduke Karl of Austria, spoke:

"We, the Hohenzollern dynasty of the Kingdom of Prussia, are also the Electors of Brandenburg in the Holy Roman Empire.

"Moreover, the Kingdom of Prussia has unified most of the Imperial lands of the Holy Roman Empire.

"So we are the true Holy Roman Empire in Prussia."

Zhu Jingyuan seemed to have a big head when he heard this:

"The HRE was Western Rome, and then Western Rome was divided into Prussia and Austria? So now there are three Romes?"

Archduke Karl of Austria, listening to these words of Heinrich of Prussia, already slightly anticipated what might happen.

In the past 100 years, nationalist trends of thought have gradually emerged in European countries, and the self-perception of various nation-states is gradually taking shape.

People don't particularly care about the Roman title anymore, but this is when no one is deliberately leading.

At this time, the Ming Dynasty deliberately put out the name of Rome, which was definitely not good.

However, Grand Duke Karl began to think that this should not be the plan of Zhu Jingyuan, the young imperial grandson, but the plan of his elders.

Archduke Karl was a little patient, did not directly refute Heinrich, and tried not to directly entangle with the Prussians.

It is enough to declare it himself, and in the name of HRE and Western Rome, Austria does not promise to give up.

However, not all of them have the judgment and patience of Archduke Karl.

Even the French, who seem to be completely unrelated, seem to have mixed in very casually.

The French crown prince, the Duke of Normandy, Louis Charles, who has just turned twenty, is also the historical Louis XVII, at this time also interjected:

"We France are the native of Charlemagne's Western Rome, and we France are the successors of Rome and Western Rome."

Zhu Jingyuan really didn't expect it this time:

"France is also of Roman descent? So now Tessie has four Romes?

"Lucia, Prussia, Austria, France, which is the real Rome?

"Which of you, the birthplace of Rome, and the capital of Rome, now belongs to you?"

The royal family members of the four countries immediately looked embarrassed.

Rome had two capitals, the city of Rome and the city of Neo-Rome, which was also known as Constantinople.

But these two capitals are not under the control of the four countries.

In the midst of this strange atmosphere, the Sardinians, hearing the discussion of the Roman capital, also intervened.

The younger brother of the King of Sardinia, Duke of Aosta, Vittorio Emanue, the king of Sardinia, who has succeeded to the throne in history, opened his mouth:

"We in Italy are the birthplace of Rome, and our capital has moved back to Rome!"

Zhu Jingyuan's own heart, in fact, doesn't really care about who is the real Rome.

What Zhu Jingyuan is concerned about now is that someone will dispute the name of Rome, and then there will be contradictions between them, and eventually divide the anti-Ming alliance.

Therefore, Zhu Jingyuan is very welcoming and in favor of someone mixing, so he deliberately asked right now:

"So you Sardinia...... Is you Italy the real Rome?"

Duke Aosta nodded as a matter of course:

"Yes, we are the direct successors of Rome."

Once again, Archduke Karl told himself to hold back and not to speak if he could not express his opinion.

But Heinrich of Prussia could not help it:

"You royal families of Sardinia are not at all the Electors of the Holy Roman Empire."

The Duke of Aosta of the Kingdom of Sardinia immediately retorted:

"But we have the city of Rome, the capital of the Holy Roman Empire, and the capital of the Roman Empire, and the city of Rome is our capital, and the true descendants of Rome are concentrated mainly in our Italy!"

Here Heinrich in Prussia was deflated, and then said a little unscrupulously:

"If it occupies the former capital of Rome, then it is Rome, and the Ottoman Empire is not also Rome?"

As soon as these words came out, the members of the royal family of Taixi at the scene all subconsciously looked at the two people.

Grand Vizier of the Ottoman Empire, equivalent to the highest official of the Prime Minister, Kol (blind) Yusuf Zayadin.

Unlike other European countries, the Ottoman Empire had no interest in sending representatives of the royal family at all, and only arranged for the Grand Vizier to come.

And another representative from the Ottomans at the scene was nominally the Ottoman Egyptian Pasha (governor) - Muhammad Ali.

But since the Ming occupied the Sinai Peninsula, completely isolating Egypt from the Ottoman diaper, Egypt was effectively independent.

Egypt is actually the eleventh member of the anti-Ming alliance, and it has a slight chance to participate in this peace talks.

The Grand Vizier Jaden does not seem to be very keen to get involved in this matter, and does not think that now is the time to fight for the Roman throne.

But Ali stepped forward, and he said directly what the others had already guessed:

"We, the Ottoman Empire, now have the capital of the Eastern Roman Empire, the city of New Rome, which is Constantinople.

"It's like the Mongol Empire in the East, and their prince Kublai Khan conquered China and established the Yuan Dynasty in China.

"So our Ottoman Empire, in the form of conquest, became the de facto successor of the Eastern Roman Empire."

Ali seems to have deliberately mentioned the Mongols, and it seems that he wants to provoke Zhu Jingyuan and Zhu Jianfeng's uncle and nephew.

But the uncle and nephew didn't care about this matter at all, because now the Mongols had been completely integrated by the Ming Dynasty.

The current Mongolians, including the descendants of the real golden family, are very accurate in their positioning, and they are the second eldest of the big family of the Ming Dynasty.

Their task is to go out specifically to intimidate - and at the same time to attract the various ethnic groups of Anxi.

Ordinary people in Anxi countries wanted to become Ming people and Mongols of the Ming Dynasty when they were in the East.

When he was in Taixi, he directly claimed to be a Mongolian from the Ming Dynasty, and he could get all kinds of preferential treatment.

In fact, Zhu Jingyuan is very happy in his heart, and now that Osman is also involved in the fight for Rome, he has to give some more help:

"The Ottomans were also the successors of the Eastern Romans, so there were actually two of them, Lucia and Ottoman.

"Two Eastern Romans, plus four Western Romans, you Tessie have a total of six Romans.

"We only have England, Spain, Portugal, and the Netherlands, not Rome."

Things have come to this point, and the real politicians of the anti-Ming allies are a little impatient.

What was supposed to be a discussion of the number of seats in the council turned out to be a Roman orthodox polemic.

If this continues, it will only split the anti-Ming alliance in advance, and it must be controlled.

British Prime Minister Pitt took two steps forward, and borrowed the topic of discussion now to give Zhu Jingyuan a "borrowing force":

"The Netherlands was once part of the Holy Roman Empire, and Spain and Portugal were once part of Rome.

"Part of our Britain, and much of the Ottoman Empire, was also conquered and ruled by Rome.

"And the southern shores of the Mediterranean, including Egypt and the Sinai Peninsula, and the two river basins, were also once Roman territory.

"But among these countries and regions, only you who occupy the Sinai Peninsula are outsiders.

"All the European nations on our site were the successors of the Roman Empire, and now they are all members of the Anti-Ming League.

"Therefore, our anti-Ming alliance is Rome, which is the current Rome, and we are all Rome!"

Pete's words are subdued, and the voice and content are quite powerful.

The other delegates of various countries and the royal family at the scene were completely silent after listening to this, obviously infected by his words.

Zhu Jingyuan was also quite emotional after hearing this, these politicians obviously would not look at themselves and provoke at will.

But Zhu Jingyuan also knows that many things are not subject to human will.

In particular, when your own side is stronger and you are not ready to reason, many techniques are useless.

"Well said!"

Zhu Jingyuan sighed sincerely and stood up directly at the same time.

The other representatives of the Ming court, as well as the representatives of all the vassal states and the imperial village, also immediately stood up collectively and looked at Zhu Jingyuan together.

Zhu Jingyuan stretched out his hand and pointed to the position beside him:

"I invite the First Minister of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland, Mr. William Pitt, to take a seat here on behalf of Rome."

The formation represented by the Ming side, coupled with the language of Zhu Jingyuan's invitation, directly made Pete feel powerless.

Because he couldn't, or even dare, to go and sit next to Zhu Jingyuan.

Before coming to the meeting, all the representatives of the Anti-Ming Alliance had been specially popularized by the Ming experts in Taixi.

The layout of the scene is the pattern of the imperial meeting of the Ming Dynasty, and the same is true of the daily early dynasty.

Zhu Jingyuan's current position is similar to that of the monarch and the suzerain.

Zhu Jingyuan represented the Ming Dynasty with the emperor's grandson, and there was no problem sitting there.

But what can he William Pitt do?

He himself is just a British courtier, let him sit in front of a vote of Prince Tessie and the royal brother, sitting on the throne of the monarch representing Rome?

This is a typical oriental style of "killing".

The point is, even if it is replaced by the British crown prince, the Prince of Wales will not be able to sit there.

Britain said that it was the organizer of the anti-Ming alliance, but it was only an organizer.

All the countries of the anti-Ming alliance are barely roughly equal, at least there is no gap between the suzerains and vassals.

The other anti-Ming allies were not vassals of Britain.

If the English prince were to sit down on behalf of the Roman monarch, the anti-Ming alliance would probably have a tendency to break up on the spot.

Several representatives of the imperial court, including Pete, were aware of this problem.

Then I instinctively lamented in my heart: O Rome, Rome, the Rome of our Europeans, why is it gone?

Oh yes, it seems that our ancestors did not do it.

If Rome were still around, there would be no England, France, Lucia, or Ottomans.

Does this mean that we are really barbarians?

Zhu Jingyuan, who was on the other side, looked at Pete standing still in place, and suddenly put on a confused expression:

"What's wrong? Mr. Pitt? Come here?

Pete shook his head a little weakly and said:

"It's not fitting for me to sit there."

Zhu Jingyuan said very unexpectedly:

"What you said is that you have an opinion about the location of our venue, and I am not allowed to sit alone in the master's seat.

"Now that the main seat is also given to you Tessie, and we both occupy one side, you should be able to accept this kind of position, right?

"You, Prime Minister Pitt, are the organizers of the Anti-Ming Alliance, as well as the actual presiding officer of the work, isn't it natural for you to come and sit?"

Pete could only helplessly shake his head again and refuse:

"I'm not the monarch of Rome, much less the monarch of Europe, I'm just the coordinator of the day-to-day affairs of the Alliance, and I'm not qualified to sit there."

Zhu Jingyuan stared at all the Taixi representatives with wide eyes:

"Then who can represent the monarch of Rome? Who can sit beside me on behalf of you Europa?"

The representatives of the Tessie countries were silent, and several representatives of the royal family wanted to speak but did not dare to speak.

In the end, it was Pete who coped with it himself, changing the subject as much as possible:

"No one can be the representative, but now is not the time to discuss Rome.

"This is an internal matter of our Europe, and it has nothing to do with the Ming Dynasty from the East and the vassal states.

"We now need to determine the layout of the formal negotiation site and the seating order."

Zhu Jingyuan ignored Pete's change of topic, and sighed very sadly:

"It seems that Rome is indeed gone......

The representatives of the royal family of Taixi, listening to Zhu Jingyuan's emotion, had very complicated feelings.

Several young people were a little excited, eager to go up directly and declare that they wanted to be the representative of this Rome.

But the sanity of the majority, as well as the representatives of the court around a small number of people, respectively held back their actions.

Then everyone looked at Zhu Jingyuan together, and commanded very melancholy over there:

"Come on, take this chair off......
