Palace of Vienna, since the news of the fall of Mexico City came, Franz's troubles came.

Although Masimirino I was not popular in the Habsburg family, it did not include Empress Dowager Sophie and Grand Duke Carl.

Masimirino was not a good emperor, but he was still a good son. He performed very well in Vienna and was loved by Empress Dowager Sophie and Grand Duke Carl.

They came to inquire about this without hearing about something in Mexico. Although Franz repeatedly guaranteed that Masimirino was safe and was in the Austrian embassy, ​​they were still worried.

Now, Empress Dowager Sophie has to read all telegrams involving Austrian Central America and even sends electricity to Governor Hummel in her own name.

This made Franz very unhappy, but for some reason, he couldn't say anything. Parents love their children deeply, and it was normal to do something extraordinary.

In order to live a few days of peace of mind, Franz chose to patrol the country without hesitation. Of course, it is too far away for the three continents of Europe, Asia, Africa and the United States. There are still risks of traveling far in this era.

As soon as Franz left, Alessandrovic's trip to Europe entered his last stop - Vienna.

The Palace of the Emperors of Austrian Hotel, which has attracted the attention of the world, has finally opened. It is not easy. Since its completion, it has received no more than ten customers, and it may not be able to open once a year.

In fact, there is not much difference between opening or opening, and the room fee is not charged anyway. According to convention, the host is responsible for the arrangement of mutual visits between royal families.

Of course, Franz still hopes to stay for a few more visitors, which is also advertising. This is how the grade of Austrian hotels is raised, and it is known as the world's largest hotel.

Although it is still far from recovering investment, the hotel's performance growth rate is still very considerable. Since its opening, its annual turnover has risen by 30% and is still growing at a rate of 30% or 40% per year.

The imperial palace is originally a palace regulation, and its luxury is self-evident, and the garden landscape inside is unique.

The crown prince Alessandrovic who had just moved in could not raise any interest in these beautiful scenery, and was left with a deep sorrow.

Naturally, the reason for Franz's travel does not need to be explained to the outside world. Alessandrovic directly mistakenly thought that this was Franz who didn't want to meet him.

The emperor's words and deeds have political implications. Franz's refusal to meet him means that the Russian-Austrian alliance has reached its end. For Alessandrovic, this is a very bad thing.

This means that his trip to Europe failed. Although he eased relations with European countries, this still could not offset the impact of the collapse of the Russian-Austrian alliance.

The emperor was not there, and the Crown Prince Alessandrovic could not be interested in the subsequent diplomatic meeting. After the tentative proposal of a loan was rejected by the Vienna government, the two sides ended the negotiations.

A wonderful misunderstanding led to close contact between senior leaders of Russia and Austria, and the opportunity to eliminate conflicts was wasted.

When Franz's daily life was deciphered a hundred years later, this misunderstanding was revealed and was listed by historians as the biggest "political misunderstanding" in the 19th century. However, the historical community has resurfaced and debated on this topic.

Franz, who was inspecting Württemberg, naturally didn't think so much. It was impossible for him to turn around and return to Vienna because of Alessandrovic's visit. That would be too shameless. It would be almost the same if Alexander II came in person.

The crown prince has nothing to do with the crown prince. Anyway, Franz left his son in Vienna. Even if he was a little younger, he would be the crown prince of Austria. Both sides had the same identities and could complete the reception task.

There is also the Austrian Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Now there is telegram, and Franz doesn’t need to take the senior government officials to go on a trip.

Just from the distance, Württemberg is not far from Vienna, and Austria has developed transportation and can be achieved by going all the way.

Not only Württemberg, but also Austria and Europe are not far away. Even the farthest island of Cyprus is only more than a thousand kilometers away from Vienna.

With such a little distance, it theoretically takes three days to reach. Of course, this is limited to theoretically, it still takes about ten days to take a normal travel tool under normal circumstances.

Franz's national tour definitely does not include islands like Cyprus, and the reason is very simple - seasick.

It will take a special train to arrive from Vienna to any local city in Austria, which will not take more than three days.

This is also the reason why Franz was able to travel at once. If he had something to do, he could return to Vienna in time.

As it turned out, the young and energetic Alessandrovic could not withstand the tossing. He stayed in Vienna for a week, but he returned home without seeing Franz return.

No one would have thought that this inconspicuous visit to Alessandrovic in Europe kicked off the breakdown of the Russian-Austrian alliance.

A wonderful misunderstanding made the Russians think that the Vienna government had decided to abandon the Russian-Austrian alliance, prompting the Tsarist government to move closer to the British.

This is all about the future. Franz said this time it was an inspection, but in fact he had more meanings to travel around the mountains and rivers.

If he really inspected, he would not start with these states. Although he was Emperor Shenluo, he also had little say in the economic development of various states.

This is the rule of the game. Franz doesn't care about anything that should not be asked about. As long as he is sure that the economic development of each state is good, that's enough for him.

As an emperor, as long as the country is prosperous and the people are safe, the status will be stable. Ambitionists will always be a minority, and in peacetime these people will only make trouble for the party at most.

Compared with other European countries, Germany is still relatively conservative, while Austria is the base of conservatives. Many new ideas were born here but could not be carried forward here.

The main reason why Paris has become a beacon and a holy place for revolution is that the people of Paris are prone to accept new ideas and have more sensibility than rationality.

If someone studies history, they will find that France has become a must-fight place for European thinkers, and the earliest test site for any theoretical idea is Paris.

...

In Mexico City, after receiving the notice of the Compton Minister's holiday, soldiers who had been gnawing bread for many days gave a cheer.

The Mexican government has the ability to prevent its people from doing business in the Austrian embassy, ​​but it has no courage to disturb the travel of the Austrian embassy staff.

"Austrian soldiers" appeared on the streets of Mexico, and these people were all locals. Even if they were not natives from Mexico City, they had lived in the local area for many years.

When they were following Masimirino, they became infected with many bad habits. In the Austrian embassy, ​​they naturally did not dare to be arrogant, and now they have no fear of being afraid.

Of course, it doesn't mean that they are unforgivable. In fact, these guards were generally good under the constraints of Massimirino I, except for a little bit of a temper.

As the first group to take leave, Captain Mikel and several colleagues chose to improve their food as soon as possible. They had enough of their continuous life of eating bread.

...

With a "bang", a slap on the table was slapped heavily. Captain Mikel roared, "What, don't you sell it to us? Why, why don't I not give it to you?"

The restaurant staff explained hesitantly, which did not relieve the anger of Captain Mikel and others, but instead made them even more angry.

This anger was not directed at the waiter, but mainly targeted the Mexican Republican government, but he was unlucky and was affected by the fish in front of him.

This restaurant was recommended by Captain Mikel, and now he is very embarrassed. He raised his gun and sneered, "Don't talk nonsense, bring me the steak."

The gun was placed around the neck, so the service staff naturally did not dare to refuse and nodded quickly.

This practice obviously angered the diners, and several young men with officers came over to argue. It was the age of about seventeen or eighteen, and it was the time when a newborn calf was not afraid of a tiger.

"How can you guys, how can you force yourself to buy? If you don't want to do your business, that's their freedom!"

The word "miscellaneous" and "freedom" completely angered Captain Mikel. They were hard-core royalists, and they did not betray Massimirino I in the last moment, which was enough to prove their position, and they hated liberalism.

Compared to the truth, they still like to talk about fists more. Without any hesitation, Captain Mikel and others who wanted to vent their resentment immediately took action. Soon, several young men who became successful fell to the ground and wailed.

After the fight, no one disturbed Captain Mikel and others for dinner. As for the personnel sent by the Mexican Republican government to follow, they pretended to be unable to see anything from beginning to end.

As long as you don’t cause a big mess, it’s better not to bother your superiors for such a trivial matter. If foreign soldiers are involved, their superiors are not qualified to deal with it even if they commit crimes.

If you handle it well, you will have no credit, and if you handle it badly, you may become a scapegoat. As a country that is overly thriving in a semi-colonial society, it is difficult for the Mexican Republican government to be timid.

If it were just like this, things would pass, and there were many conflicts with the great powers every day in Mexico City. The usual result was that the Mexicans suffered losses.

It’s just that the protagonists this time are different. No matter what the soldiers had before, they are now wearing Austrian military uniforms, and they are Austrian soldiers, and the Mexican government cannot do anything to them.

However, the middle school boys who suffered losses refused to agree and left with injuries. The few of them did not settle down and were thinking about how to take revenge.

"Kor, this matter cannot be forgotten like this. If we don't take revenge, these guys will be even more rampant!"

Cole's man asked back, "Kend, what are you going to do?"

After wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth, Kent sneered: "Of course..." The conversation between the two ended abruptly after wiping their necks.

Don’t look at them young, they are actually those who have experienced the test of blood and fire. They are members of the radical faction in the Mexican Republican government.

After pausing for a while, Cole slowly spoke: "This matter must be cautious and cannot be leaked. It is best to blame..."

...

Captain Mikel and his men who were still wandering outside were still on the verge of being targeted by someone and were having fun everywhere.

There are so many soldiers in the embassy, ​​so you have to take turns to rest. The holiday is hard-won, so if you miss this one, you can only wait for next month.

At midnight, the drunken people supported each other and embarked on the way home. It was not that they didn’t want to stay overnight, but that the wallet in their pockets couldn’t stand it.

It's just a little military pay, but it can't stand such squandering. It's okay to indulge in an occasional way, but they are not qualified to live a life of drunkenness and dreams.

"Bang bang bang..."

The gunshots sounded, and the few people woke up instantly and immediately crawled on the ground. They immediately took out their guns and fought back in the dark.

Thanks to the tense situation, the Mexican Republican government stepped up its guard and the police on patrol were attracted.

Captain Mikel escaped, but his companions were not so lucky. When they came out, eight people died and two were injured.

This was just the beginning of the conflict. Several soldiers who went home suddenly found that their home had changed their owners, and there was also a fierce conflict.

In just one day, these soldiers on vacation committed more than a dozen shootings in Mexico City, causing dozens of casualties.

The Compton Minister who received the news was not angry but happy, so there was no need to worry about not having an excuse to interfere. The Mexican Republican government must give Austria an explanation.

As for the dead people, the Minister Compton could only regret to express his regret to seek justice for them. In any case, these people were also Austrian citizens he issued.

Especially when changing the owner of the house, these are all "Austrian citizens" and have been forcibly seized from their property. Things must not be forgotten like this.

The Compton Minister was a smart man, and the Austrian army had not yet arrived. It was not suitable to stimulate the Mexican government at this time. If it made people angry and they would be killed together, it would be miserable.

In his opinion, finding an excuse for interference and taking the opportunity to conduct political blackmail against the Mexican Republican government under the threat of force is the best choice.

If the army really pushes Mexico with the army, why do they want diplomats?

In order not to overstimulate the Mexican Republican government, the Compton Minister avoided the important matters from the beginning and arrested the shooting, allowing the Mexican government to hand over the murderer.

The property of ordinary Austrian citizens was taken away or even tragic deaths, and will not be investigated for the time being. No, the Mexican government does not know that these people have become Austrian citizens.

Originally, the Minister of Compton was still hesitating whether to give the soldiers' families Austrian nationality, after all, many of them did not meet the standards.

Now there is no need to hesitate. They must be Austrian citizens, and even their relatives who died in the Great Purge can become Austrian citizens.

The greater the number of casualties, the more property they lost, and the more confident they will be when they ask for compensation in the future.
