Chapter 217 Resignation
Not firing two full-finger guns to William II from behind is enough to show that Tu Fu has excellent personal qualities.
certainly,
More is the fear of the demigod hiding in the palace in the dark, and how many black knights guarding him around.
As long as I have the slightest attempt to do anything wrong, I will probably be punished on the spot.
After spending the most exciting fifteen minutes of his life, Tu Fu didn't even look back, and he didn't want to recall what happened just now.
A good meeting really turned into a defense form.
Answer and answer, just answer but not argue,
Apologize immediately.
In the conversation without any initiative just now, he seemed to see the lonely William II on the towering throne.
Even if he faces the whole world, he will never change his mind.
But to talk about the most nervous right now, it must be Prince William.
After watching Tufu go in, he was like an ant on a hot pot, pacing back and forth in the corridor, restless all the time, and Friedrich even thought of the worst ending.
On the pillow in his quarters, a loaded revolver was at hand.
Always waiting for his master to pull the trigger.
It's nothing more than a death, and you can still retain some dignity by doing it yourself.
"How's it going."
The moment he came out of Tufu, Friedrich Wilhelm looked at Tufu with a pleading look like a sinner waiting to be judged, eager to get an answer from his expression.
His expression was obvious enough, and his brows were furrowed.
A haze spread over his handsome facial features, and the answer was self-evident.
"Kangdang."
Prince William only felt his legs go limp, and he sat on the ground uncontrollably, his pupils constricted violently, trying not to make his expression so ugly, maintaining the appearance that a member of the royal family should have.
Tu Fu was startled, and took the initiative to help him up, "Your Highness, what are you doing?"
"Miss...failed?"
"No, the conversation was successful. As you wish, His Majesty will send you back to your fief, but the condition is that you will never be involved in politics again."
Tu Fu shook his head, not knowing whether this result was good or bad for him.
"what."
There was a flash of astonishment in Prince William's eyes, and it only took a moment to go from fear to surprise.
He suddenly lowered his head, trembling with excitement.
So much so that he had to cover his lips tightly with both palms, trying his best to cover up his laughter.
If he hadn't been concerned about the importance of the palace, he would have laughed like crazy, and the unlucky prince was so excited that he even burst into tears from the corners of his eyes.
"Tu Fu, our grievances have been wiped out. No, I owe you a favor now. If you have the opportunity to come to my back cover in the future, I will definitely welcome you with the highest level of ceremony."
Prince William stood up trembling.
If it wasn't for Tu Fu's support, he might not even be able to stand up.
"You don't need to be like this. You thank me now because I saved your life. If any of your brothers ascend to the throne in the future, the original gratitude may also become hatred. Hatred that I ruined your future and will be forever Imprisoned in that place.
Your Highness, as long as there is no debt to each other, each will be safe in the future. "
"Ok."
Tu Fu's tone was cold, which immediately made Prince William a little embarrassed.
After the conversation just now, he really didn't want to have any interaction with members of the royal family.
Walking out from the corridor of the main hall of the palace, although Prince William's attitude was still enthusiastic, he still couldn't shake Tu Fu's determination.
He really couldn't endure the trampling on his dignity by these two fathers and sons again and again.
"Da da da……"
The footsteps on the other side of the corridor did not stop at all, and no guards dared to intercept them. The visitors kept walking upwards.
The Chief of Palace Affairs who sent Tu Fu over came up from downstairs after the meeting and whispered in front of Prince William, "Your Highness, Mr. Sollens is here too."
"what."
The moment he heard that name, a resentment appeared on Friedrich William's face.
He stood still, waiting for the person to arrive.
Perhaps it was the joy of the rest of his life that made Prince William forget his fear of that person for a moment, and deliberately stood at the entrance of the corridor to block the other person's way.
The tall and burly man seemed to have never seen him, his eyes were only cold.
"Your Highness, what's the matter?"
"Sir, what you told me before almost killed me, shouldn't you give me an explanation?"
Prince William growled under his breath, with anger on his face.
"It's not that I didn't warn you, don't do things that violate the rules, and think about whether you can bear the price before doing things, even if you don't have such awareness, what big things can be achieved.
If His Highness made a mistake, he should be punished. Saving one's life is already the best result. "
Prime Minister Thilo Sollens' tone was neither salty nor weak, but it sounded soul-stirring.
Think of the competition for that position as a snack game for afternoon tea.
From the beginning, it was not regarded as a war, and it was a strange thing not to lose if it was determined to die.
"you are vicious."
Prince William knew he couldn't beat this man, so he snorted unconvinced and ran away in despair.
In the corridor of the palace, only Tu Fu was left staring at him. Mr. Prime Minister held a document in his hand, and nothing else was brought in.
Thilo Thorens smiled playfully at Tu Fu, "I thought His Majesty would chop off your head, so I came here specially to ask him to pardon your sins. It seems that I was overthinking."
"My head was almost separated. It seems that you know what I'm talking about?"
"Well, it's not hard to guess,"
After pondering for a few seconds, Tilo said, "You probably persuaded His Majesty to let Friedrich go. Otherwise, according to His Majesty's disposition, he would not survive today. Maybe you still want to persuade His Majesty to suspend the plan of the 'perpetual motion machine', but unfortunately he did not Did not listen to you."
"As you said, I've said everything, but I can't change anything."
There was a bit of bitterness in the corner of Tu Fu's mouth, "I used to be sitting too high for His Majesty, so I couldn't see what was going on in the quiet, so I wanted to tell him something that he couldn't normally touch.
But the conversation just now let me understand, His Majesty knows it all, but he doesn't care.
I really don't understand why someone is willing to believe something that has never been proven and force everyone to believe that it is the truth. "
"Do you really know?"
Hearing what Tu Fu said, Tilo remained expressionless, and just said lightly, "I just memorize the numbers on the paper, but don't understand the reality behind the numbers. What is the difference between 100 and 10,000.
Data is the result of facts and observations, and a logical induction of objective things, but more often than not, it is just a series of numbers, infectious numbers. "
"A string of contagious numbers."
Tu Fu thought it was funny, but he couldn't help it.
"Behind those numbers is actually the problem of uneven distribution and redistribution.
Poor families watched their sick sons and daughters die sadly, those who worked hard were not matched, and factory owners and bankers accumulated wealth through speculation snowballing.
The prestigious schools that the children of capitalists and nobles can easily apply to, but children from remote areas like you and your sister will never be able to catch up with their starting line even if they try their best... Don’t you think that the current kingdom is very unusual. "
"It's not normal, so what do we do? To change that."
"Son, you've done enough. Leave the rest to me."
Even Prime Minister Thilo had to praise his brave move.
To do this is already his limit.
He patted Tu Fu on the shoulder and said nothing.
With firm steps,
Go straight to the main hall.
...
After a brief silence between the monarchs and ministers who looked down upon each other, William II finally couldn't help but speak first,
"Mr. Sollens, what's the matter with your sudden arrival? I don't remember having another meeting with you."
"Naturally, I came here because of something. Your Majesty, please sign this bill."
After receiving the document from the other party, a gloomy expression appeared on His Majesty's face, and he casually threw it over, "The new law reform document? I remember that I said that we must wait for the ceremony before discussing it with the House of Representatives?"
"Your Majesty, I think it is necessary to complete it before then." Prime Minister Thilo Sollens sneered, "When the grand ceremony is over and everyone recognizes that machine, you will be able to successfully complete the mass production of perpetual motion machines. How much money do you have left?"
"How dare you doubt me?"
"Yeah, so I need you to sign it now."
Mr. Prime Minister's expression was serious, "You just want to use this method to gain people's approval and make them surrender to His Majesty, so as to demonstrate your majesty in this country."
His meaning is clear enough, just like when he first joined the army, he was always asked to do some meaningless actions, whether it was military posture or corporal punishment, it was never for the purpose of exercising the body, but to cultivate a kind of absolute obedience.
Even if it is wrong to do so, it must be recognized.
"Prime Minister, you have exceeded your authority." William II's voice was low, and asking a king to do what he wanted had violated the normal order of the royal court.
"It seems so." Thilo shrugged his shoulders. "If you don't want to sign it, you might as well look at another thing."
"what."
"My resignation."
"Ha, you are threatening me now, so bold."
"If you are willing to understand it this way, then my answer is 'yes', exactly. I have won many battles for the Baia Kingdom in my life, and I never want to have a big fight with you at this age. It is a bit shameful.
I am willing to leave, this is your respect.
Your Majesty, I am also looking forward to your reply. "
"approve."
William II was furious immediately, watching the man turn and leave gracefully, he almost gritted his teeth with hatred.
That contemptuous look seemed to be warning him, you'd better understand the price.
"Hisss—"
After people walked away, William II didn't care about being gentle, and angrily tore up the reform plan of the new law, and the white paper was flying all over the sky like falling snowflakes.
"You want a new order, a new order built on top of me, right?
Whether it's you or that child, I will never give it up to you easily, never. "
The lonely William II roared like a wounded beast in a deserted palace.
No one can talk to him like that, and no one is allowed to.
He is no longer the little king who can get him to step down obediently if the opponent shows a little trick in three minutes.
Now he is no longer weak and full-fledged, so no one is allowed to use this lofty posture to warn him, to warn a supreme king.
This is Baia,
It is the Kingdom of Baia ruled by the Hohenzollern family.
