【1169 Olympic Diplomacy】

"Take the overall situation into consideration, don't be tit-for-tat." Hua Huang said softly to Princess Katrina Kaif.

This is exactly what Princess Katrina Kaif wanted to say to Emperor Hua. The two of them looked at each other with a tacit understanding, nodded at the same time, then slowly looked at each other and smiled.

Princess Jie, Zhao Qingluo, and Katherine were all a little sore, especially Zhao Qingluo. I don’t know why she felt sour in her heart - what’s wrong with me? Am I really falling in love with Yuemeng?

King George I of Greece nodded to Emperor Hua in embarrassment, and the meaning was more.

When Emperor Hua saw a dignified king and was forced to this point by a prime minister, it was secretly funny. Europe's democracy is more advanced or backward than China.

"It's true that he is the prime minister of the empire, and Mr. Tricuspis is indeed extraordinary." Emperor Hua smiled slightly and said in fluent English.

Tricuspis looked at Emperor Hua in surprise. Although he had known Emperor Hua was a very powerful person, he was still shocked by Emperor Hua. How could he be a child?

The Emperor of China also knew that George I was a decoration, and the real power of the Greek kingdom was in the hands of the parliament and the prime minister, but Tricuspis clearly rejected the Chinese country and looked down on himself, the Emperor of China. It seemed impossible to get rid of Tricuspis. This was indeed an ununsolute lock.

However, Emperor Hua was not in a hurry.

Regardless of whether Tricuspis looked at the Upper China or not, the Greek Kingdom and China had the object that they needed to defend together, that was the Ottoman Turkish Empire.

"His Majesty the Emperor of China is too much." Tricuspis can be the grandfather of Emperor China, which is also one of the reasons why he is a little resistant to Emperor China.

From the current perspective, although the age of Emperor Hua is not very scary, it still has some influence. If the senior officials of various countries can be in the top leadership, except for the direct heir of the royal family, how can the prime minister be in this position be less than fifty years old? At least they are forty years old, forty is the limit!

It is indeed a bit difficult for a group of prime ministers who are forty, fifty, sixty, or even seventy or eighty to talk to Emperor Hua at the age of nine.

When Emperor Hua saw that Tricuspis was willing to speak, he was very unhappy and chatted casually. From the political achievements Tricuspis has made since taking office and the achievements made by the Greek kingdom in recent years, he specifically picked what the Greeks loved to hear, and at the same time praised Tricuspis's talent.

People who have been flattered by many people, even if they reach the spiritual realm of Tricuspis, are unable to avoid the vulgarity.

Princess Katrina Kaif looked at Emperor Hua happily in her heart. Emperor Hua is her god.

Mrs. Catherine is even more like this. Since Emperor Hua was one or two years old, Catherine has already thought so. The nine-year-old Emperor Hua is more calm and capable. After not seeing him for a few years, Catherine admires him even more.

The coast is winding and the blue and beautiful Aegean Sea has successively born the Minoan civilization, Mycenaean civilization, and classical Greek civilization. It is the cradle of Western civilization and arouses the romantic imagination of countless poets.

If you open the map, you will find that the huge Aegean Sea islands are scattered, but they are basically Greek territory. Even a series of islands along the coast of Turkey, which are close to Turkey, belong to Greece, which is far away from the other end of the sea.

In 1831, when the Greek Governor Ionis Cabbagestias was assassinated and Greece fell into an unorthodox anarchy.

At the London Peace Conference in 1832, the European powers, Britain, France and Russia appointed a foreigner as king for Greece: Otto, a 17-year-old little prince in Bavaria (this person was the 21st generation grandson of Theodore I, the emperor of the Lascaris dynasty of the Byzantine Empire, and was originally a red root).

After the establishment of the Greek Kingdom, it experienced many competitions between the Bavarian regent and the Greek constitutionalists brought by the young king Alto. Finally, the 1993 Constitutional Revolution broke out in 1843, and the Greek constitutionalists won. Although the subsequent prime ministers may not really take democratic constitutionalism seriously, at least Greece has a liberal constitution that decorates its facade.

At this time, the little king Alto I had grown up. In order to consolidate his position in the still turbulent political situation, Alto decided to stand at the forefront of Greek nationalism and practice the "great ideal".

The so-called "great ideal" is to put it bluntly, the great Greek nationalism, the dream of restoring the Byzantine Empire. Any place where my Greek nation settled, and any place that had close ties with the Greek nation in history should be the territory of the Greek kingdom, and Constantinople is the natural capital of the future Greek Empire!

Taking advantage of the opportunity of the Crimean War in 1854, Alto I started working on it.

The main force of the Turkish army fought with the Russian army's front line, and Greece sent informal troops to invade Turkey, but it turned out to be a big loss and lost, and no advantage was obtained.

Soon, Otto I was forced to abdicate due to a domestic coup, and the practice of the first phase of the "great ideal" ended in failure.

Soon after, the great powers appointed a king to Greece: George I (both the father and the maternal line were related to the Byzantine royal family).

As soon as George I ascended the throne, he brought the Ionian Islands to Greece, which Britain regarded as a generous gift for George to ascend the throne.

George I was enlightened and politically wise, almost doubled the territory of Greece. Especially in the Balkan War, Crown Prince Constantine won again and again, defeating Turkey and Bulgaria in succession, winning Crete, Macedonia, Epirus and Thessalonika, as well as many islands on the Aegean Sea. Constantinople is ahead!

The lofty ideal seems to be within reach!

Although everyone was not warm, Tricuspis would not leave when he saw Emperor Hua, so he still had a meal.

During the meal, Emperor Hua didn't say anything, but Princess Katrina Kaif and the Greek Queen were talking and laughing, as if they were good friends.

Hua Huang smiled, "I was having such a happy day today. I'll finish my meal later and play cards, right? I especially like your Greek gameplay."

Playing is just gambling. Emperor Hua is going to give Tricuspis some money. Moreover, at the card table, it is more convenient and natural to speak, and there is no big grudge.

In the eyes of the Emperor of China, Tricuspis looked down on China mainly because China was too far away and had little to do with him and the Greek Kingdom, and it was not helpful to the "political achievements". But if you can get money, you will naturally have political achievements?

"Okay." George I agreed readily, he tried his best to establish a relationship with China.

Tricuspis also saw Emperor Hua's intentions and thought that he was already cold enough. Emperor Hua was still so enthusiastic that he did not hit the smiling person, so he naturally had no objection.

Huayuan has been circulated in Europe, and Huahuang has brought many gold coins. Most of this transmission has flowed into Tricuspis' pocket.

"Doing economic and trade with China will be conducive to the two-way development of the Greek Kingdom and China. This is one of them. It is more important to open up the Eurasian continent by land. If the Ottoman Turkish Empire intervenes too much, our China will have reason to intervene in regional disputes." The Emperor Hua said calmly.

The Greek King George I and Tricuspis were both stunned. They did not expect that Emperor Hua suddenly became so direct. Tricuspis had a spy in the palace. He knew that George I and Emperor Hua did not talk about any substantial content yesterday. Today, he said this in front of himself, that was for himself.

Tricuspis pretended not to hear, while George I smiled and nodded, making it inconvenient to express his opinions.

Emperor Hua continued to laugh and said, "I heard that the Olympic Games originated in ancient Greece more than two thousand years ago. They were named after the venue was held in Olympia. The ancient Olympic Games were suspended for 1,500 years. I propose to hold the modern Olympic Games. The Olympic Committee was established and the first Olympic Games were held. I wonder what your Majesty and the Prime Minister think? This is very beneficial to enhancing the international status of the Greek Kingdom."
