The changes in the European continent will not affect the stable development of the East African colonies for the time being, and Leopold's distress will still require a long time between the two countries, so this year will not see results.

However, Ernst knew that the Spanish throne would be a flash in the pan for Leopold, and of course, that would prove to be a hot thing for Amadeo I, a future Italian Savoy emperor.

Amadeo I almost replicated the endings of Charles I (with England) and Louis XVI of France, but Amadeo I was more flexible, and as soon as he arrived in Madrid, he knew that he was not capable of solving the problems facing Spain.

In 1873, the Amadeo I voluntarily abdicated and returned to Italy in a relaxed state, re-becoming Amedeo, Duke of Aosta.

The Spanish throne looks good, but it just looks good, behind it is not only involved in all forces in Spain, but also the intervention of the great powers.

However, history still proves that the republic could not save Spain, even after two world wars, going around and around, Spain finally returned to the monarchy.

So the Heshingen royal family, it's not that nothing has been done, and while everyone else is paying attention to the situation in Spain, the people of the Heshingen royal family have already gone to Paris to contact the future king of Spain, Alfonso XII.

The icing on the cake is never more touching than sending charcoal in the snow, especially now under the influence of his mother, Alfonso XII, the former Queen of Spain.

Of course, the relationship between mother and son was very good, and Alfonso XII only hated the Spanish rebels.

In fact, the reformist general Juan Prim staged a failed military coup d'état in 1866, but it was only in 1868 that Juan Prim made a comeback.

October 16, 1868.

Paris.

"Your Majesty, Your Royal Highness, on behalf of the Royal House of Hexingen, I sympathize with your plight, and my Prince and His Royal Highness have said that the rebels will not end well after all." Tom came to Paris on behalf of the Hashingen royal family to express the attitude of the Hashingen royal family to the mother and daughter.

"Thank you for your support, and Alfonso and I, on behalf of the Bourbon family and the Spanish people, will not forget your country's friendship," said the former Queen of Spain. ”

Although she said that she was the former queen, in fact, Sha II did not give up her claim, which also established a legal basis for the later restoration of Alfonso XII, just waiting for the Spanish loyal patriots to regain their strength and welcome the prince back to China, and the royal robe was added.

"This is a little bit of the heart of the Heixingen royal family, our Heixingen as a country has long been unworthy of its name, we can only give some small gifts, and I hope the queen and the prince will not dislike it." As he spoke, Tom brought a box forward.

Sha Er knew that there must be money or something in this box, so she asked the housekeeper to accept it, and then said, "Alfonso, you have to remember, who are our real friends these days, and who are the people who have fallen into the ground, do you know?" ”

"Yes, Mother, we Bourbon will not forget those true friends." Alfonso XII, who was still a little immature, said.

The mother and son are actually not very depressed, after all, the value of the Bourbon family is still very large, and as one of the three major forces of the French royalists, its political status is still very important in Europe.

However, after all, the rule of Spain was temporarily lost, and it was inevitable that some of the people who had come from the past scattered in a hurry, or even defected to the enemy camp.

And the royal family of Heixingen, a small German country that did not have a close relationship with the Spanish royal family in the past, also came to express condolences, which made the mother and son very moved.

"The people of Spain have only been temporarily blinded, and Spain would never have been reduced to this point if it had not been for the fact that the Americans had been weakening Spain overseas.

After all, we all know that Spain's economic problems are caused by the damage to overseas interests, and those traitors are actually some chaotic parties who cannot bully the United States and can only make up for it at home. Tom did not forget the prince's instructions and gave the future Spanish royal family eye medicine first.

"It is right to say that the Americans have been jumping up and down the whole of the Americas in recent years, and they have always been eyeing the Spanish overseas territories, which is the fundamental reason for Spain's economic erosion." Sha Er agreed.

As the ruler, Sha II has no self-knowledge, but someone helps him find an excuse to get away with it, so he naturally wants to blame the Americans for all the reasons and the guilt.

The United States does not need to cry out for injustice, Cuba, the Philippines, Argentina, Mexico...... These Spanish colonies in the previous life......

It was on October 10, 1868, led by a section of the white elite, that the Yarra uprising broke out in Cuba. At this time, Cuba was a multi-ethnic region, with blacks, whites, and even some Chinese, and the source of funding for the insurgents was self-evident.

Although the uprising was unsuccessful, it kept the flame for the later independence of Cuba. Of course, Sha Er, mother and son, who lost the Spanish throne, didn't know the news, and now that even the base camp has been lost, who cares about an island overseas? Even if he was Spain's most valuable colony.

Of course, Ernst didn't mind letting the mother and son learn more about international events and broaden their horizons.

Tom said: "Just a few days ago, an uprising broke out in Cuba, the rebels picked a good time, the front foot rebelled in Spain itself, and the back foot planned Cuban independence, it is difficult not to think that the two sides have nothing to do with each other, after all, it is less than ten days before the Spanish rebellion, when will Cuba not make trouble, but choose this time, the person behind it is really ......"

"Humph! A bunch of beam-jumping clowns! Sure enough, their purpose was to destroy Spain, and I knew that they did not have good intentions, but I did not expect that they were in collusion with Spain's enemies (the United States). Sha Er gritted his teeth.

The young Alfonso was even more indignant, well, now the evidence is conclusive, the financiers behind the rebels definitely have something to do with the Americans.

Conspiracy theories are indeed the easiest to believe, and the mother and son don't need evidence at all, just suspicion, and the United States is undoubtedly the most suspicious of all countries.

In addition to the conflict of interests between the two countries, the United States as a republic is very suspicious.

If in the previous life, the United States took over the scepter of world hegemony from Britain, then the United States became a great power standing on the corpse of a large Spanish colony.

Although Spain's own rule is a big problem, the United States is fanning the flames and playing small tricks on the side, which is even more disgusting.

Moreover, since the restoration of Nasan in France, the United States has become the stronghold of reactionary (republican) forces in the eyes of European monarchs.

Anti-government organizations from all over the world can be found in the United States, such as Antonio Meucci, the holder of the previous patent for the purchase of telephones by the Hashingen consortium, who is such a person, and Garibaldi, one of the three great founders of Italy, lived in the United States for three years in the home of Antonio Meucci.

Not to mention, Ernst's father-in-law, Massimiliano I, was one of the victims, after all, the supporters behind the Mexican rebels knew who it was.

At that time, the Mexican republicans were taken to the mountains with three blows, and the United States had just ended the Civil War and began to provide all kinds of support to the Mexican rebels, all the way to the overthrow of Massimiliano I.
