Why is this visit important?

In fact, this depends on the general rules of some international relations at this time. Of course, this relationship refers to the international relations between Europe and the United States.

Simply put, in the current world, with constitutional monarchy as the main political system, most European powers rely on this aspect. Don’t think that the Austro-Hungarian Empire is not a constitutional monarchy, the Habsburg family is really unwilling to do so. But even if it is a constitutional monarchy, it seems that the monarch has no practical rights, but some of the monarch’s actions still have great political symbolic significance.

The most important thing here is a visit!

If a monarch visits a certain country, then the first symbol is that the monarch recognizes this country!

This is the first one, a monarch. I admit your status. I admit that your country is a good country. What we can say between us is like an equal part of the underworld. Then I will go.

So, don’t underestimate the action of visiting. It represents a lot of things, and it’s actually the same in later generations. If I don’t recognize you, I will never go to your side, and there will be no letters or communication.

This matter is really important.

Let’s talk about the Qing Dynasty. The history that Li Mengyang saw was that no head of state in the European and American powers had ever been to the Qing Dynasty!

There is no need to mention the monarch, it’s just like the prime minister. I haven’t been there before. What does this mean?

People don’t even look down on you, the Qing government!

Don’t look at Li Hongzhang’s visit, Bismarck from Germany, or a Russian grandfather from Russia, but no one wants to go to the Qing Dynasty. Can’t you understand this?

In other words, the conditions he threw out in the White House are actually very, very powerful!

Queen Elizabeth, the title of this queen represents the Hungarian monarch. The Austro-Hungarian Empire was a dual empire. Of course, the king of Hungary was still Franz Joseph I, but it was really the first thing that a queen could come to visit an empire where Chinese people became emperors!

Moreover, no one recognizes the American Empire now. Even the Qing Dynasty did not admit it. This situation was very dangerous. If you do not recognize you, then we can do anything between us anytime and anywhere. We think you are illegal, so why do we still reason with you?

In addition, if Queen Elizabeth could come, then this move would be very powerful. Queen Elizabeth, Princess Sissi, also has power behind her. Their family is also a veteran European aristocrat and a relative of the Habsburg family, so this posture is very powerful.

Look, everyone admits it, then you still watch it?

Therefore, this is likely to have an ice-breaking effect, and it is very likely that after Queen Elizabeth, there will be many European monarchs or heads of state coming.

Many things are like this. It’s like a dam, which often comes with a small crack at the beginning. But when this crack is present, the dam will collapse soon!

This is very likely because the Empire is doing well with the British now and is also buying and selling with Germany. But everyone has not put this face down yet, that's all...

So, why didn’t Li Mengyang agree to such a good thing? Why did he say that?

Why was Franz Joseph I not at ease if Queen Elizabeth comes alone?

But this is nothing. In the subsequent talks, this guy Liszt told Count Andrach very clearly that if you don’t give out real money, then the freedom of Grand Duke Maximiliano, hehe...

Is this too much?

Can Count Andrach agree?

Can the Austro-Hungarian Empire agree?

Will that Franz Joseph I agree?

What's the result...

"On March 11, 1872, Emperor Franz Joseph I of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, arrived in Baltimore by boat with Queen Elizabeth, and then began a week-long state visit..."

"…On March 13, His Majesty the Emperor of the American Empire had a cordial conversation with His Majesty the Emperor of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, and the two sides exchanged views on some major international events..."

"... On March 15, the American Empire Emperor personally released Maximiliano and held a banquet to entertain the Austro-Hungarian Emperor and Empress. At the banquet, Mr. Maximiliano expressed his gratitude to Clint, Meng Yang, and Li I... In order to express his condolences to the people of the Mexican Autonomous Prefecture and to make up for the trauma suffered by the people of the Autonomous Prefecture, the Austro-Hungarian Emperor agreed to donate 1 million gold francs to the Autonomous Prefecture..."

"…On March 17, the American Empire signed a friendly bilateral agreement with the Austro-Hungarian Empire, and the two sides should carry out in-depth exchanges on economic cooperation..."

Here comes! They are really here, and the whole process is full of big speakers from the Empire doing radio, and the newspaper is not idle, with all kinds of news and comments.

You know, there were more than 8,000 newspapers in the United States before. Although the final unification has not been completed yet, there are more than 5,000 copies in the east. Everyone is rushing to report them, and the commentary articles are one by one, so the people of the empire are enjoying reading them.

Of course, no one knows that these genres are relatively close to the high-rated programs and news broadcasts in later generations... Li Mengyang can be regarded as giving himself some memories.

It's a good thing, but how come this happened? That's the emperor of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. If you Li Mengyang asked him to come, he would come?

The one who is most curious about this question is Liste. Don’t forget that he is a Hungarian. In fact, he was the one who started the whole matter. When contacting the Count Andrashes, it was indeed a bit like the other party taking the initiative to play the pole, but Joseph I was too obedient, right?

"Your Majesty, can you solve your doubts?"

"That's right. Hahaha..."

Liszt asked more than once, but Li Mengyang always smiled...

I can’t help laughing, because Li Mengyang couldn’t tell the reason at all. This reason is because he traveled through time!

Yes, it's that simple, but to be specific, that is, Li Mengyang, a guy who knows better the Princess Sissi, who is now Queen Elizabeth!

Alas? Could this guy be lustful? But he is a married woman and has given birth to several children. Does your Li Mengyang taste so strong? Although...

Princess Sissi is still very beautiful now. She is definitely a beauty, over 1.7 meters tall. She has an excellent figure, but... Li Mengyang is really not interested in that aspect, really not!

Princess Sissi is the historical figure most well-known in Europe by Chinese people in later generations. At least among the most famous figures among female historical figures.

Because the first foreign movie introduced after the founding of the People's Republic of China was "Princess Sissi".

He is so famous, and Princess Sissi is indeed very beautiful. He is a famous peerless beauty in the West. Li Mengyang, a history-based person, naturally wants to take a look. After seeing this, he is shocking, but there are still no such people. After all, there are too many beauties in his era.

But it’s interesting here, that is, Princess Sissi in reality, which is completely different from Princess Sissi in the movie!

Princess Sissi in reality is so sad, how sad is it?

It was so sad that Princess Sissi became Queen Elizabeth. Yes, it was the queen of Hungary. To put it simply, it was just getting together with the Earl Andrache!

It's quite interesting to tell this story. Princess Sissi and Joseph I are actually relatives, and there is no way. After all, the European nobles are all family members, but these two people also had sweet days at the beginning, but the good times didn't last long.

This has something to do with Joseph I. What is this person like?

He has intentions and ambitions, and is also very talented and even very self-disciplined. In the words of the White House waiter, this emperor is a bit*. He takes cold showers every day, and it is March now.

Well, the waiter is more concerned about the health of the emperor, but taking a cold bath also shows that Joseph is in good health in his lifetime, but this person's brain is...

fool!

So fucking stupid!

As for Li Mengyang's meeting with him and exchanging opinions, he found that this guy was slow to react. He said that Grand Duke Maximiliano's value was all determined by Princess Sissi.

Good price, fair...

But this stupidity is a bit problematic. If a person is stupid, it is actually nothing. Li Mengyang is conscious of discrimination, but if this person is stupid but likes to interfere in any topic, then there is a problem.

Simply put, don’t expose yourself if you are stupid!

"Ah?! What is this? Is the electric light? So interesting!"

"Ah!? What is this? Is this a car? I'm going to try it...ahh..." With a clang, it hit the iron fence of the White House...

"What's this bike called? We have it there too, hey, why is it different? It's very comfortable." It was quite fun to ride the bike.

Just like Joseph I, he has the etiquette of aristocratic people, but sometimes he really has something to do with new things... But just these things can really reflect the person's character and his performance in governing the country.

The idea and starting point are often good, but the ones are not done well, and the result is always tragic...

So, for such a person, Princess Sissi is so smart and talented. She still writes poetry... Then she has something to do with Count Andrach, isn't this a normal thing for God?

Well, the point is not the relationship between Princess Sissi and Earl Andrach. Li Mengyang doesn't like this kind of gossip. What he uses is something else, the relationship between Princess Sissi and her mother-in-law.

Joseph was stupid in his life, but he was not stupid. That is, the famous Empress Dowager Sophie. This Sophie could tell that Princess Sissi and Earl Andrachy was between them. Cough cough... Of course, they had something to do before, and the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law is the case in ancient and modern times, both in China and abroad.

But there is a major problem here, that is, the Empress Dowager Sophie is even more cruel than Cixi. She protects all the children born by Princess Sisi by her side and prevents Princess Sisi from being a mother!

Yes, it’s just depriving you of your right to be a mother. This move is too ruthless!

The above is what Li Mengyang has mastered, and there are many interpretations of such things in later generations.

So, let’s straighten out these relationships now. The Earl Andrach came first, and he took the initiative. Then his purpose was Maximiliano, who was Joseph I’s younger brother. Do you still understand?

Obviously, the reason why Count Andrach came to our empire and wanted to return to Maximiliano was probably to help Princess Sissi return to the custody of her children!

Because as long as Maximiliano returns, the old Empress Dowager Sophie will naturally be happy. At least the matter of children can be discussed, right?

It should be said that Li Mengyang is not completely accurate, but it is...

Didn’t the Emperor and Empress of Austria-Hungary come?

That's probably what happened... (To be continued)
