Chapter 28, Rebellious Psychology(1/2)
Does Masimirino have the ability?
The answer is: Yes!
As long as it is not a congenital deficit, people trained by the royal family will definitely have the ability to surpass most ordinary people.
However, ability is often accompanied by arrogance, and this arrogance needs to be polished. Only after restraining its edge can it be truly exerted.
Masimirino just had never encountered setbacks. Under the Pang Ai of Queen Mother Sophie, his first half of his life was smooth sailing, and then he developed the spearhead of idealism.
Idealism is the biggest enemy of the monarch. Once it is infected, the best ending is to become an eraser seal. If you are not bad, you can refer to the Massimirano in history.
Franz sneered and said: This is the plan you prepared? My stupid brother, is your brain watered?
Do you think Mexico is not chaotic enough to govern the country according to your plan, so add a fire to them, then kill a river of blood, and send you, the emperor to the guillotine?
This is not Franz's swearing around. Massimirino's plan is indeed unreliable. The core dominance concept is actually liberal.
Can liberalism be played by any country? In Austria, Franz, dare not engage in liberalism, or in other words, no monarchy in the world dares to engage in this kind of liberalism.
Masimirino said dissatisfiedly: My brother, why do you say that my plan is not good?
Instead of answering this question directly, Franz asked: Very good, he has learned to question and has made progress.
Unfortunately, this is far from enough.
Since you plan to govern the country, then tell me what is the biggest social contradiction in Mexico? What are the advantages and disadvantages?
There is also the resource distribution in Mexico, where is suitable for developing what industries?
It was Masimirino's turn to be stunned. This country is managed in a rough manner, not in charge of bureaucrats, and others usually know nothing.
Masimirino, who is far away in Vienna, naturally could not have these detailed information. Franz provided him with only the basic domestic situation, and even the Mexican government did not do detailed statistics.
But in Franz's view, these basic things must be mastered as emperors, otherwise how to formulate a development outline.
For example: To develop heavy industry, we are preparing to build a steel factory. Because we don’t know anything, the bureaucrats will choose the site at will, and finally find that the raw materials are thousands of miles away.
After hesitating for a while, Masimireno frowned and replied: The main contradiction in Mexico is the conflict between the reformists and the conservatives, and the conflict between the republicans and the constitutionalists.
As long as the political system problems are handled well, these contradictions can be resolved. The subsequent questions are too tricky and I refuse to answer them.
Franz rubbed his forehead and said helplessly: It seems that my stupid brother, you are really fooled by someone.
The system exists because of people, and those with problems will always be people, not the system. As long as people's problems are solved, these problems are not problems.
There is no right or wrong in the face of interests. As a qualified emperor, you don’t need to distinguish clearly.
You just need to figure out which ones you want, which ones are neutral, and which ones are enemies.
You can reuse your own people, and you can win over the neutral faction. The enemy only needs to be killed, and things are that simple.
The fundamental social contradictions in Mexico are interests, conflicts of interests among various classes, and conflicts of interests among different ethnic groups.
Only by clarifying the chain of interests and fundamentally solving the problem, other conflicts will be easier to deal with. If you can't solve the problem, then solve the person who created the problem.
This is just a basic condition for firmly sitting in the throne. In the end, it depends on the development of the country. At least you have to let the people have enough food.
After saying so much, do you still think what I asked doesn’t matter?
This is a political class, a black imperial power technique. Before that, Franz had never taught Masimiriano, and no one in the Habsburg dynasty could teach him.
After hearing Franz's words, Masimirino was shocked. He had never expected that Franz would say such a thing, subverting his views.
If Franz means, to firmly hold the Mexican throne, the first thing to do is not to ease the contradictions, but to stimulate the contradictions and use a civil war to solve the people who create problems.
Even thinking about the rebellion in 1848, the Vienna government took this opportunity to resolve the Hungarian issue once and for all, and also resolved domestic social conflicts, and introduced the Labor Protection Law to abolish the serfdom.
Masimirino understood a lot in an instant, and the more he understood, the more difficult he could accept it. The elder brother, who was known as the greatest king of the Habsburg dynasty in a century, actually did so many things secretly.
It was impossible for him to refute that Franz had succeeded, and those who succeeded should not be blamed. From 1848 to the present, Austria's comprehensive national strength has more than doubled.
The country has become stronger, people's lives have improved, and all walks of life have made significant progress.
Massimirino, who was hit, didn't know how he left, and his mind was full of reverberation of what Franz said, wandering in affirmation and negation.
Looking at her absent-minded husband, Princess Charlotte asked with concern: Why is Massimilano? Is it uncomfortable?
The awakened Massimileno said listlessly: Shanot, do you think I am not suitable to be an emperor?
Princess Charlotte was shocked. She wanted to be the queen! She spent a lot of effort to encourage Masimirino to agree to be the emperor of Mexico. It took her a lot of time to become this way after a while.
Princess Charlotte doesn’t think it’s difficult to be an emperor, just look at Franz to know. On average, she works three or four hours a day, and spends most of her time reading, newspapers, drinking tea and taking care of her children. Austria is still developing very well.
How to go back? You have to believe in yourself, you are the best!
Masimirino shook his head and said: No, I may really not be suitable to be an emperor, and I don’t even know the basic elements of being an emperor.
Princess Charlotte persuaded: What happened that hit you deeply? I don’t know you like this. Did a little setback hit you?
Masimilano calmed down and said: I just went to see my brother with the future development plan of Mexico, hoping to get his support.
Charlotte asked uncertainly: He disagrees with you going to Mexico to be the emperor?
You should know that the relationship between Franz and his brothers is very good. Under normal circumstances, if Massimilano wants to be the emperor, Franz will definitely support him.
This is also one of the reasons why they dared to take over the mess in Mexico. After all, Austria's tentacles are deep into Central America, and only a telegram is needed, the Austrian army can come to provide them with force support.
Masimirino shook his head and said: No. He just told me some basic common sense about being an emperor, which had a huge impact on me.
For the specific situation, Masimirino kept silent. He also wanted to save face, but he didn't want his wife to know these bad things.
Princess Charlotte breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this news. It would be fine as long as the emperor Franz did not object. It would be irrelevant to other members of the Habsburg family.
What I could provide support to Mexico was only Austrian troops in Central America, which only required Franz's consent.
Don’t worry, there are so many successful emperors in history, and everyone has different ways to succeed. Franz’s cousin’s experience is normal. Some things are not suitable for you.
As long as I am diligent and loving the people, I believe I will get better! Princess Charlotte continued to inspire
Masimirino smiled bitterly and said: But the facts are in front of him, and he has indeed succeeded. Austria has rejuvenated in his hands, and the glory of the Habsburg dynasty is reappeared in his hands.
It took only more than ten years for all this to be given a very high evaluation by everyone. When they walked on the streets and alleys, people would shout "Emperor Franz".
He is diligent in his work and loves the people. The last two words are somewhat related to Franz, but the first two words really make people unable to connect.
If you want to select the least diligent monarch in Europe, then Franz will definitely be able to enter the top three, one of which may be Queen Victoria.
This is embarrassing. Britain is under the constitutional monarchy model, and the monarchy rights are restricted. It is reasonable for Queen Victoria to not participate in politics.
Franz is different. Whether it is the Austrian emperor or the new Holy Roman emperor, they are all monarchical countries. Although they are covered with the shell of constitutional monarchy, the emperor's rights are still supreme.
Because the party's power is too weak, this constitutional monarchy is even stronger than the imperial power of most monarchical countries.
No matter what, Franz succeeded. Austria's influence spread to the places where all civilizations exist in the world, and the flag of the Habsburg dynasty spread throughout the four oceans and seven continents.
From then on, the word "diligence in office" may be kicked out from evaluating the advantages of the king. At least this was the case in the Habsburg dynasty. Everyone just needs success. Who cares whether the emperor is diligent?
In fact, this is just Franz's self-knowledge. If you really care about everything and work hard, you will eventually create a lot of messes.
Instead of doing this, it is better to just take care of the top 180 people in the government and then manage the country.
This principle is simpler to say, but harder to do. In order to build this bureaucratic team, Franz spent several years working out and finally found a balance point.
Princess Charlotte said seriously: Massimiliano, you are jealous. This is not a good quality, jealousy will make people lose.
Massimirino roared in an venting manner: That's right, I admit that there are factors in this regard. I have lived in the shadow of Franz since I was a child, and he is really excellent.
The grades of each subject made me desperate, except for the exception of marksmanship. I finally waited until his grades dropped, and before I could breathe a sigh of relief, he started to be regent and became emperor.
As we all know later, Austria before he succeeded to the throne was just a European power, and now Austria is a world power.
If he wanted, he could also learn from the British that the sun would never set on Austrian land.
You don’t know how much pressure I feel with such an excellent brother. From childhood to adulthood, I have to imitate him and learn from him.
But now, I found that the gap between the two sides has not narrowed, but has been further widened.
I really hope that he can be a little mediocre in one aspect and can help me regain a little confidence!
Princess Charlotte, who knows her husband very well, knows that Massimillennoken says these words, which means he is fine, and then says: At least your marksmanship is better than him.
It seems that I have only this little confidence left. Massimilano said helplessly
Princess Charlotte smiled brightly and asked: So do you want to have common sense and challenge yourself?
Masimirino replied without hesitation: Of course, I will prove myself in my own way, no worse than him!
Princess Charlotte joked: Really? Massimilano, are you so confident?
Masimirino replied confidently: Of course! Oh, there may be a little gap, but there is absolutely not much, please believe me!
Obviously, the royal education is not in vain. At least, it has been put into practice in cultivating self-confidence. People can regain their confidence in the shortest time.
This is also a relationship between cultural traditions. Most Europeans have the problem of being too confident. In this case, the potential that can be stimulated is also easy to do stupid things.
So all Franz's efforts were in vain. Masimii still insisted on jumping into the giant pit in Mexico, and could not stop him.
After receiving this news, Franz didn't know what to do.
If you forcefully stop him, your brothers will probably not be able to do it. Seeing him die, Franz can't do it.
After he was curbed for him, Franz said that he was not a nanny. Besides, he couldn't even take care of him even if he was far away in Mexico.
Franz finally tried hard: You have to think clearly, Masimirino. Mexico is not a good place. If this emperor was so easy to do, it would not be your turn.
