Make France Great Again

Chapter 655 Albert’s help

De Ruys's righteous speech made Palmerston's face reveal a sneer.

"Does the business activity mentioned by your country also include the service of assassinating a king? If so, then the scope of your country's business is too broad!" Palmerston said to De Ruys in a sinister tone. He said, and then loudly and emphatically ordered the translator beside him to translate this sentence into French.

De Luys, who stood face to face, certainly did not need a so-called interpreter. He also understood that Palmerston was just venting his dissatisfaction.

After the conscientious translator translated the entire paragraph into French, De Ruys said with a stern expression: "Prime Minister Palmerston, you said that we assassinated the King of Egypt! Do you have any evidence to prove it? If If it is really us who assassinates you, then we in France are willing to hand over the right of access to the Suez Canal to the British Kingdom, and promise you that we will withdraw from all commercial activities in Egypt!"

De Ruys was confident enough to ensure that this assassination operation would not be detected by the British Kingdom and then affect the French Imperial Government.

He also believed that Palmerston, an old fox, could really detect something strange, because this old guy was also good at conspiracy and conspiracy to force unrest in other countries.

I think Thiers and Muhammad Ali were deceived by Palmerston and became public enemies of Europe.

You say that similar substitutes can attract each other... Bah! People of the same type can already know what type of piss-poor the other person is when they see each other for the first time.

How could Palmerston not know what kind of despicable people Jerome Bonaparte and his group of guys who were sitting in the French Empire were?

It's just that suspicion requires evidence. It's okay to make random suspicions about a small country without evidence. At worst, the other party may have weapons of mass destruction hidden in their home.

To suspect a major country of conspiracy, one must pay attention to evidence. If one does not pay attention to evidence and doubts indiscriminately, it will inevitably lead to hostility between the two countries, thus causing turmoil in the situation.

De Ruys can be sure that this old guy Palmerston has absolutely no direct evidence to prove that this matter is related to France.

On the one hand, he simply did not believe that the British Kingdom's intelligence network and criminal investigation technology in Egypt could help them solve the case quickly.

Nowadays, the British intelligence station in Egypt (the embassy to be precise) has long been infiltrated into sand by Marcel Jerug. If Marcel Jerug wants to, he can even know the underwear of the British consul in Egypt. what colour. If this can give them a clue, De Ruys will consider reporting to the emperor to abolish the Egyptian branch of the National Intelligence Service's Foreign Intelligence Service.

(In fact, the intelligence agencies of various countries around the world are in shambles, and the management of various departments is extremely chaotic! The top-secret letters sent through the Ministry of Foreign Affairs are not encrypted at all, and they are not good at using new tools such as telegrams. At the same time, Compared with these poor intelligence officers, France, which has the foundation laid by Fouche and Jérôme Bonaparte's intelligence thinking across time and space, is like a dimensionality reduction attack on them.)

On the other hand, the bodyguard who assassinated the (previous) Egyptian governor (king) has been completely eliminated by the new Egyptian governor Said for murdering the governor, and the body was completely cremated.

All the clues to the assassination incident have been wiped out by France. Now, except for the new Egyptian Governor Said who directly defected, no one can find France's head.

If Said really dares to counterattack, France would not mind getting rid of him before he counterattacks.

In the position of governor of Egypt, there are many people who are willing to do what he is not willing to do.

In fact, just as De Luys thought, Palmerston could not produce any substantive evidence to prove this matter.

If he had evidence, he would not directly ask De Ruys to add the Kingdom of Britain to the list of shareholders of the Suez Canal, unlike De Ruys.

"As far as the current substantial evidence is concerned, the assassination was a hasty operation!" Palmerston replied to De Ruys.

Seeing that Palmerston could not find any substantive evidence, De Ruys continued to say to Palmerston: "So, the Kingdom of Britain cannot prove that the assassination is related to France!"

"We can't confirm whether there is anyone behind the assassination!" Palmerston nodded.

"Then Prime Minister Palmerston!" De Luys said in an aggressive manner, "How do you think this matter must be related to France! Is it just because Governor Said signed an agreement with us to open the Suez Canal? Rights agreement? If all of this can be evidence, then can I assume that the railway construction signed by your country with the Governor of Egypt can also be regarded as proof of the persecution of Governor Muhammad Ali!"

"That's different!" said Palmerston defensively.

"According to the logic of the Kingdom of Britain, what is the difference between these two things?" De Luys said sadly: "If the Kingdom of Britain thinks that it is a big country, it can bully France! Then I have nothing to say You can tell!"

De Luys' words made Palmerston feel speechless.

Oppressing France? What a joke! Looking at the whole world, which country dares to say that it bullies France!

Britain is a big country, and it is true that it is attacking everywhere, but what qualifications do you, France, have to say that Britain is attacking everywhere? You, France, are also attacking everywhere, and you, France, are also a big country!

"We respect the rights of the French Empire..." Palmerston once again preached that France and Britain should restrain each other and jointly safeguard the security of Europe and the world. We must not let a small group of people attempt to destroy world peace. Great peace.

Since Palmerston practices Tai Chi, De Ruys simply follows suit.

The whole meeting started with tit-for-tat and ended with each other doing Tai Chi.

After the meeting, Palmerston was called to Buckingham Palace by Prince Albert.

"How did the meeting go?" Albert asked Palmerston, who was sitting there with a smile.

Palmerston shook his head and replied: "I can confirm that the incident in Egypt was definitely the work of France, but we can't find any substantial evidence to prove it. And that guy De Ruys seems to have always wanted to Seize the Suez Canal to make a fuss!"

"I have a piece of gossip from the German region, Prime Minister, would you like to hear it?" Prince Albert asked Palmerston in a casual tone.

"Of course!" Palmerston nodded immediately, knowing that Prince Albert should know some inside information.

After all, when the royal family and the royal family communicate with each other, they will say something to each other that they think they cannot say to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

"The Kingdom of the Netherlands is conducting a secret negotiation with the French Empire!" Prince Albert said while pouring a cup of herbal tea for Palmerston.

"Thank you very much!" Palmerston first thanked Prince Albert and then asked, "What did the Kingdom of the Netherlands talk to France about?"

"I'm not sure about that!" Prince Albert shook his head, and then added: "However, I heard it's about the territory!"

territory!

Palmerston's expression immediately changed. The first thing he thought of was the Kingdom of Belgium. After all, the Kingdom of Belgium was cut off from the Kingdom of the Netherlands. It was still the Kingdom of the Netherlands, but they had always wanted to annex Belgium again. .

Moreover, France was also peeking at the French territory of the Kingdom of Belgium. If it were not the Kingdom of Britain, the new Kingdom of Belgium would immediately be divided between the Kingdom of the Netherlands and France.

Could it be that the French Empire wants to launch a war against the Kingdom of Belgium?

"Your Highness, we must not sit idly by and watch!" Palmerston, who couldn't sit still, immediately said to Prince Albert.

"Your Excellency, Prime Minister, what do you think we should do?" Prince Albert also misunderstood what Palmerston meant. "Start a war with France, or condemn France?"

"This..." Palmerston was stunned for a few seconds. He also realized that the current British Kingdom seemed to have nothing to do with France.

A war with France? Don't be kidding. The British and French troops on the front line in Crimea are working together to fight against the Russian Empire. What will happen to Crimea if they start a fight with France in the back?

By then, the Tsar may be laughing his head off.

For now, Britain's only allies in Europe are the French Empire. (Maybe the Kingdom of Prussia counts as one)

Even if Britain wanted to reopen the anti-French alliance, it would not have the manpower, and given the disgraceful performance of the Russian Empire in Crimea, there is a high probability that reopening the anti-French alliance would be useless.

Condemn France? That’s even more unreliable. Which rogue country is afraid of condemnation!

"Then we can't let them directly occupy Belgium!" Palmerston blurted out.

The person who greeted him, Prince Albert, looked at him in surprise: "Who told you that they were going to occupy Belgium?"

"Then..." Palmerston responded immediately after reacting: "Could it be Luxembourg?"

"That's right!" Prince Albert smiled and nodded: "It's Luxembourg!"

"That won't do!" Palmerston responded to Prince Albert. Find the book garden www.zhhaoshuスyuan.comm

"Your Excellency Prime Minister, what do you think we should do?" Prince Albert once again returned to the previous question.

"We can put pressure on the Kingdom of the Netherlands to give up this deal, and at the same time instigate the German Confederation to oppose it!" Palmerston immediately thought of this method.

"The Kingdom of the Netherlands is afraid of Britain, but not France? And how do you know that the German Confederation will definitely object! Maybe they will readily agree!" Prince Albert said with a half-smile.
