Chapter 67

William IV looked at Charlie Bill and Tolbeck with a dignified look at the Belgian intelligence above. Especially campaign information about Joseph Bytt and Dane Tang.

After a long time, he both sighed.

"Your Majesty, now that the Belgian election is approaching, all the gods are showing their approval, and our transaction with the United Kingdom is also involved in this bet, and the interests have reached the point of mixing. Queen Victoria has ruled the United Kingdom for more than 20 years. I think about the situation in Belgium, they may be more precise than we are now with the level of observation. Although Bait and Danetang are secretive, they can also make a guess when they think about it."

"Will this be the right medicine for them to prevent it?"

As the Prime Minister of the Netherlands, Tolbeck has always been known for his calmness, but now he has failed. Although Bait's status in Belgium has been praised by him, but it was originally just a Belgian election, but now it is the British who The gambling contract between the Netherlands, this was not an insignificant, but only slightly important campaign, turned out to be a different kind of war waged by the top agents of the UK and the Netherlands, which I have to say is enough to make trustees Erbec was sweating a little.

"Blocking is for sure, but" said William IV grimly, "but we are not vegetarians, but we are not in a hurry for now. Let's wait and see what moves the British side will make first."

"Your Majesty, we and you are now unfounded. The two of them seem to be very calm at the moment, and they are obviously able to cope with ease, they don't seem to be exhausted, and the people around them are not ordinary politicians."

"Charlie Bill is still right, Prime Minister. It seems that the two of us are over-hearted. Some people are calmer than us."

Tolbek was stunned when he heard the words, and then he remembered that his apprentices Beit and Danetang were now rivals, and Bill was so calm, but he cared too much, but he seemed to lack confidence. Seeing the smile in William IV's eyes, Erbeck's face suddenly became hot.

Even the cheeky kung fu that has been refined for many years seems to be ineffective at this moment.

However, although he was cautious by nature, he said calmly at the moment: "That's right, the Belgian circle, let's just give them experience, and we will act soon, and then they won't have such a chance."

"Yes, the opportunity is rare. Let them take a bath in that pond and wash off the mud and dirt on their bodies. It's not bad. Don't forget that the Netherlands needs to expand in the future, and the demand for talents is even stronger, and talents in politics are rare. Moreover, our current move with the UK seems to be random, but there will be more opportunities like this in the future, and it would be a good time for them to play against them in advance."

. . . . . . .

Soon Belgium was divided into five constituencies, five including Brussels, east, west, north and south.

Joseph soon faced an opponent, a senator from the province of Liege and an aristocratic senator from the eastern constituency.

"Only by taking good care of the daily needs of the people under their jurisdiction, such as wealth, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, etc., can politicians get their desires in return."

To be able to beat Jules Danetang, Joseph Bett is naturally not easy.

This is the mantra of Joseph Bytt.

Before last year, many people didn't understand how deep the meaning of his words was, and during the election campaign, it seemed that no one else was as gorgeous as many others, but he relied on these words to give everyone It shows how profound the power of this sentence, as well as its political meaning, is.

So that watching him grow up step by step, his opponents, including June and Danetang, were amazed.

Bytt treats the visible and tangible needs of his native Limburg province. Although he became a senator of Limburg province and lived a comfortable life in Brussels because of his successful candidacy, he seldom Will be deaf and indifferent.

Therefore, his supporters are very enthusiastic to support him to stay in his position, especially in this election for the Belgian Prime Minister, he also faced an opponent like Jules Danetang. Member of Parliament, the same veteran.

Many people are sweating for him, because this senator is famous and well-connected. He also has the support of many people in the cabinet in Brussels. The most important thing is that he is a Limburg. local nobility.

Under the circumstance that many people are not optimistic, Joseph Bait is facing a very serious preselection challenge to outsiders. His opponent's noble blood and extensive network are very capable of mobilizing, many Lin The boss-level figures of the Fort Province, regardless of the business community, capitalists, nobles, landlords, etc., all stand for him.

These people are all relatives and servants who are destined to give them votes. When ordinary people encounter this situation, they are already on the verge of collapse, but Beit has not, and has been resisting this attacking pressure hopelessly. , he took out a magic weapon - his opponents were not "ordinary people".

Yes, it's not ordinary people. His opponent's extraordinary feature is his strength, but it is also his weakness.

Just as the preliminaries in Limburg were in full swing, Joseph Beit directly published an advertisement in the local newspaper in the east. From His Majesty William IV.

He didn't fabricate anything out of thin air, but he put in the newspapers the places where his opponent always telegraphed recently, such as Brussels, etc., and this opponent is no longer a local, already belongs to the Brussels noble ID card and his high-priced Brussels Houses, etc. These places are called black circles when they are published in newspapers and magazines.

Just like this, this aggressive aristocratic opponent had not had time to open his posture and have a PK, and maybe even the clothes he brought when he went out had not even started to be washed, and he was already expelled from this competition.

When the result came out, it shocked everyone, including the leaders of various countries including William IV.

The Royal Palace of Brussels.

When Leopold I received the telegram concerning the election results in the east, his face was stunned when he read it.

Even his eldest son, Crown Prince Leopold, did not respond to questions. In the end, he said a little desolately: "I thought it was just a continuation of the last time, as long as the victory over the French-speaking region was enough. Now it seems that things have happened too much. What a surprise, this Joseph Bett is an accident."

After watching it, Crown Prince Leopold was speechless for a long time, and finally he finally said, "Orbon is in trouble this time."

More than trouble!

Orban is now watching the news from the east, and 10,000 draft horses are flying across the Atlantic Ocean.

Originally, I thought I was determined to win, but now it's a little off.

"His Majesty has invited the Prime Minister to visit the Royal Palace"

Orbon knew that it must be because of the matter at hand, so he left in desperation.

...

Buckingham Palace across the North Sea.

"What a powerful hand," Palmerston suddenly exclaimed, "A good song and a quick knife to cut through the mess, Your Majesty, this Joseph Beit is really talented, Belgium has such a talent, but it is indeed His Majesty Leopold I. Fu, it is well used, but Belgium can really win a lot."

After she finished speaking, she didn't see the Queen's response. She put down the teacup and looked at the Queen looking up in confusion.

The latter's helpless intelligence materials were handed to Palmerston and Foreign Secretary John Russell.

With suspicious thoughts, after opening it, he was speechless for a long time.

"The Netherlands is hiding so deeply?" The speaker was John Russell, the foreign secretary and colleague of Palmerston's friend and colleague.

When the Queen saw that the two were powerful people in the UK, it took a long time to calm down the shock brought by the news~www.mtlnovel.com~.

"William IV is tricking me. I originally thought that this bureau would be another senator named Jules Danetang. Unexpectedly, now a little tiger has been released. It seems that the Netherlands is really uneasy about Belgium. kindly"

"Yes, I didn't care about this transaction at first. After all, our relationship with Belgium is well known all over the world. Now I'm afraid that there will be more troubles." Palmerston did not feel discouraged by this, but aroused it for many years. Fighting spirit, "Your Majesty, it seems that His Majesty William IV's technique is unique, but I am a little itchy. This time in Belgium, why don't you let me fight, how about you?"

Queen Victoria didn't make up her mind for a while, because there were too many interests involved, especially in Australia and other territorial transactions, which involved a lot.

She thought of the advice given to her by the Tory leader a few days ago, and when she was about to refuse, Palmerston's face turned straight and said, "This may be the last time my life is so meaningful and interesting. The battle is over, I hope Your Majesty will be fulfilled."

After speaking, Palmerston's nearly 80-year-old head lowered his head and pleaded.

And Russell next to him also knew that his friend's health was getting worse recently, so he also stood with his old friend.

Queen Victoria saw that both of them were over 70 years old, but now they look like this. Thinking that when she was not in power, the two people in front of her had already begun to play an important role in British politics, and even they were half teachers of her and her husband Prince Albert after she came to power, sighed and said, "Forget it, then I, wish the Viscount a great victory."

Palmerston heard the words and said gratefully, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your permission."
