Another thing that gave Arthur a headache was the handling of the Greek royal family that had been negotiated with the British.

It makes sense that it would be good for Arthur to support George II to return to the Greek throne.

After all, George II is Arthur's brother-in-law, and the relationship with Arthur is theoretically relatively close.

If George II could be supported by restoring the Greek monarchy, it would be very helpful for Arthur's position in Europe, after all, he was also an orthodox king.

But the question is, how can Greece be restored to its monarchy? You know, the establishment of the Second Greek Republic did not have too many human interventions.

In other words, George II was overthrown by the will of the people in Greece. Although most of the responsibility for this lies with the two previous monarchs of Greece, namely the father and younger brother of George II.

But the problem is that these two men are now gone, and the Greeks can only put the blame on George II.

After many thoughts, Arthur finally decided to invite George II's family to Australasia and discuss in person how to restore the Greek monarchy.

After receiving Arthur's invitation, George II readily agreed, and immediately packed his bags and headed for Australasia.

Also rejoicing was Arthur's sister Charlotte. After all, I have been separated from my mother and brother for more than ten years, and it is impossible to say that I don't want to.

In particular, Charlotte's mother, Lord Louis, is also old and basically doesn't go out, and she hasn't seen Charlotte for ten years.

This can be regarded as a worry of being a member of the royal family. Although he was born superior in status and wealth, he also became less free because of his status as a member of the royal family.

In particular, the change of monarchs before Greece was relatively frequent, so it was naturally even less likely that there would be enough time to come to Australasia.

On February 11, 1925, George II's family successfully arrived in Sydney, Australasia, and was received by the Australasian government.

This can be regarded as a signal from Australasia to the outside world, at least Australasia still recognizes the Greek royal family and king, and will not have any prejudice and snub because George II was overthrown from the throne.

There is a huge difference between the status of Arthur and George II now, and it is good to be able to have a grand reception by the government, and Arthur is naturally impossible to greet him in person.

George II was also very polite, and went directly to the Palace of Sydney without rest to meet Arthur and Lord Louis.

In the banquet hall of the Sydney Palace, Arthur successfully met his sister Charlotte and brother-in-law George II, accompanied by Queen Mary and Lord Louis, as well as William and the little ones.

After sending William and the others away and letting them take their cousins and cousins to chat, George II and Charlotte also stepped forward with great interest and saluted Arthur.

Immediately afterward, the two of them saluted the Lord of Louis. Although George II's title is king, after all, the throne has been abolished, and there are younger generations who have added the element of asking for others, and it is also appropriate to salute the Lord of Louisshire.

Lord Louis smiled and pulled the two up and asked them about their recent condition.

After receiving a fairly positive reply from the two, Lord Louis nodded with satisfaction and handed over the space for conversation to Arthur.

"Okay, there's nothing to talk about today, just a simple lunch." Arthur smiled and said, "George, try the food of Australasia." Charlotte, you too, haven't tasted authentic beef and mutton from Australasia for a long time? You can eat enough today. ”

Australian beef and mutton are famous in Europe, and it is also one of the first choices of European aristocrats.

In fact, it is true that after the brand of Australian beef and mutton is managed, the trade of whole cattle and sheep and beef and mutton has made Australasia a lot of money.

Even in order to start the popularity of Australian beef and mutton, the royal family's three meals a day are inseparable from Australian beef and sheep, but they will do it in a different way.

George II nodded a little reservedly and began to taste the steak in front of him.

Although raw beef is indeed edible, Arthur still prefers the slightly rare medium-rare. This also leads to the fact that the beef and mutton of the Australasian royal family are basically medium-rare, and there is very little meat with obvious blood.

It was exactly as Arthur had said, and throughout the lunch, Arthur did not mention any government affairs, nor did he have any intention of offering to help George II recover.

This also made George II look in his eyes and be anxious in his heart. But there can be no way, on such an occasion, George II can not be rude, nor can there be any presumptuousness.

After all, to put it bluntly, whether his throne is restored or not, Arthur's attitude is very important. George II had already been in contact with the British before, and understood that the British and Australasian support for his restoration had certain ideas.

But in the end, the current George II is demanding, and his attitude needs to be more respectful.

After lunch, Arthur arranged for George II's family to live in the dormitory of Sydney Palace, where there was a relatively independent set of rooms, enough for George II's family to live.

Seeing the tiredness in their family's eyes, Arthur asked them to rest for a day and invite them out tomorrow.

Arthur's indifferent attitude made George II a little uneasy and anxious. After entering the arranged room and making sure that there were no outsiders around, George II cautiously said to Charlotte: "Charlotte, do you think His Majesty Arthur will support our restoration?" ”

At the end of the day, the Greek royal family is in a bad situation. Because of the previous two monarchs, the support of the Greek monarchy in the hearts of the Greek people has dropped greatly.

Even the restoration of the Greek monarchy more than a decade later was the result of the military's last resort in order to stabilize the situation in Greece after the coup d'état.

Before that, no matter how chaotic the situation in Greece was, the political parties and people of Greece did not have any idea of restoring the monarchy, which can already prove the current attitude of the Greeks towards the monarchy.

Without any royalist support, George II's restoration would be difficult or even hopeful of any restoration without any external support.

The current Greek political scene is actually very chaotic, and this period should be one of the more chaotic periods in Greek history.

As a result of the wave of European democracies and republicans, the Greek republicans won the parliamentary struggle and successfully passed the republican resolution, changing the government of the Kingdom of Greece to a republic and establishing the Second Greek Republic.

But the Greek republic was more like a herd result, and the Greek republicans did not have any ideas of their own, nor did they have any political opinions.

What does that mean? A republic is a republic, but none of the republican parties can stand alone, and no party can truly establish a republic and completely change Greece.

To put it simply, the current Second Hellenic Republic is more of a chaotic struggle between the various parties.

These republicans were united when the monarchy was abolished, but the temptation to control the entire republic led to the fragmentation and fragmentation of these republican parties.

The reason why Greece has achieved the restoration of the monarchy in history is actually that during this very important period of industrialization, the Second Greek Republic did not make any achievements, and even caused Greece's economy to continue to be sluggish, and it also suffered from the Great Depression that was rare in decades.

To sum up the performance of the Second Hellenic Republic in one sentence, it was not as good as the previous reign of the deposed Greek kings.

George II also understood this truth, and he also knew that now should be the best time for restoration, after all, the residual heat of the monarchy has not yet dissipated, and the Greeks at this time should be able to accept the monarchy soon.

If we wait until the Greeks are already familiar with and accepted the republican system, we will discuss the restoration, I am afraid it will be too late.

"Definitely, George. Arthur he won't leave us alone, isn't that why he invited you to Australasia? Charlotte nodded vigorously and said comfortingly.

Hearing Charlotte's comfort, George II nodded relaxedly, barely comforting his impatient heart.

Taking a deep breath and knowing that this visit to Australasia was the best opportunity to win Arthur's support, George II thought carefully about the situation in Greece and thought about a plan that would best impress Arthur to support his restoration and still try to protect his own interests and those of Greece.

The second watch, ask for a monthly pass, ask for support!
