The Rise of the Empire

Chapter 1818: Hungary has settled down

"Prime Minister Tisza, now the general cities and villages in the entire Hungarian region have restored order. We have settled more than 60% of the population in Hungary. From the current point of view, people's mood is stable and the supply of materials is relatively sufficient." In the Opinion Villa of Veszprém, west of Budapest, Count Tisza, who had escaped from Budapest, once again accepted the position of Prime Minister of Hungary given by the Austrian Emperor and began to perform his duties again.

Within a week or so after Count Tisza arrived here, the former Hungarian government officials who finally agreed to cooperate with Vienna began to arrive here one after another, and established a provisional government with the help of the Austrians. The main work they have to do now It is to help Vienna stabilize and rebuild domestic order, and at the same time suppress the traitors in Hungary.

"When I came to Veszprém, it was very contradictory, because I knew that when I crossed this threshold, the great Kingdom of Hungary that I had hoped for will leave me, because here only loyalty to Vienna is welcome. People, Hungary and Austria are no longer equal relations. We will surrender and become a province in a new empire. Our parliament will no longer influence the central government, and even internal rights will be deprived, but It is a pity that we have no other choice. If we were to simply Hungary, we might not even be able to survive this winter.” A former Hungarian official wrote in his diary.

   But compared to ordinary Hungarians, they welcome the Austrians very much, because the Austrians bring them much-needed food, clothing, fuel, and the most precious order and peace! At this time, the belief in the so-called "Great Kingdom of Hungary" was far less than a piece of bread for them. The original Hungarian nobles and officials were no different from the enemies in their eyes!

   "Prime Minister Tisza, good day!" After hearing this familiar greeting, Prime Minister Tisza put aside his work and looked at the small Count Tuf, the Special Liaison Officer of Vienna who entered his office.

   "Hello, Lord Earl, I invite you to come here today to ask a question, when can we return to Budapest? And how will my government be formed in the future?" Prime Minister Tisza asked.

   "Within a week, your subordinates will be able to return to Budapest to fulfill their mission. But you may not be able to go back immediately. Because there is a very important ceremony that you need to attend." Little Earl Tuft said with a smile.

   "Is there any ceremony more important than the re-establishment of the Royal Hungarian government?" Count Tisza frowned slightly and said with some dissatisfaction.

   "The canonization ceremony of the new crown prince will take place this week. You will represent Hungary in this ceremony, and then at the ceremony, you will wear a crown that symbolizes the Kingdom of Hungary." Count Taf said.

"It seems that His Majesty the Emperor and Crown Prince Ruprecht have reached an agreement on this issue. I now want to know who is so lucky to be able to agree to the two." Prime Minister Tisza said seriously, because He knows that this crown prince will directly determine Austria's national fortune in the coming decades!

   "The princess of the empire, His Royal Highness Princess Mary, the wife of His Royal Highness Ruprecht." Little Taf said a choice that shocked Count Tisza!

"Does this mean the merger of the Habsburg family and the Wittelsbach family? Even the merger of Vienna and Munich?! Have you considered the Prussian reaction?" Count Tisza was really shocked. There may be many differences between Emperor Tisza and Emperor Franz, but they are surprisingly unanimous in their fear of German power. He knew that Austria and Bavaria could not be merged, but this kind of practice that might lead to Prussian retaliation really made him very Shocked, even scared!

"Bavaria will remain in the German territory. The eldest son of the crown prince and princess will inherit the throne of the Austrian emperor in the future. The second son will inherit the throne of the Kingdom of Bavaria. In order to prevent accidents in the canonization ceremony, our diplomats will advance Communicating with the Kaiser and Berlin, I think, whether it is William II or Albert of the Parliament, will make the right choice?" Count Tuff said with a smile.

   "You really chose a very good time!" Count Tisza said with a complicated expression. In this case, as long as Bavaria does not announce its separation from the German Empire, neither the German nor the parliament will be too entangled in the issue of Princess Mary's succession to the Austro-Hungarian Empire, right?

what? You say you object? Whether it is the Kaiser or Albert, why should they object? ! From a logical point of view, when the Austro-Hungarian Empire chooses a crown prince, it still needs the approval of William II? What do you think? ! Although the Austro-Hungarian Empire is weaker, it is not so! Moreover, in history, hasn't it happened that a family has mastered several kingdoms at the same time? There are many things like looking through the history of the Habsburg family! Even the Hohenzollern family, the family that only came up later, did not come from the two royal families of Germany and Romania?

There is no problem with inheritance rights~lightnovelpub.net~ The Crown Prince and Princess Mary’s eldest son Albrecht is not of German nationality, but began to be of Austrian nationality with Princess Mary, and he was born in Bohemia. -Moravia's heir, now with Princess Mary becoming the crown prince, then there is no problem with Albrecht, who has Austrian nationality, becoming the second in line to the throne! How logical is this? As for Prince Ruprecht? It is estimated that it should be no problem to get the position of a regent. After all, William II is still a British general... (True story. European countries have a tradition of giving out titles to foreign in-laws or monarchs.)

As for opposing words, the current Kaiser and Albert really have no way to oppose. Let’s not say that at this time one side expresses "understanding" and the other expresses "opposition", the opposing side will definitely not see the sun next month. ...... What if both parties oppose it? What would the Prussian regiment think? In their view, as long as Bavaria does not break through the final bottom line-independence, or merge with Austria, they will never take the initiative to launch an offensive. After all, once a war starts, it will be the rhythm of everyone's death. As for the Kaiser and Aber special? In fact, as long as the officer corps is willing, it is no problem to change individuals. The Kaiser has several sons. It is not a big problem to choose one. As for the Social Democratic Party? There are many candidates, and I can always find a few willing to cooperate...
