Start 1861: I Just Inherited the Dutch Throne

Princess Victoria's eyes were stern, with dissatisfaction on her face. After staring at Alexandra for a while, she mocked herself to her husband, Crown Prince Frederick: "It seems that we are indeed too persistent in our close relationship with Britain. Even people from countries other than Prussia know that our husband and wife are pro-British, but "

Princess Victoria once again turned her eyes to Crown Prince Christian and his wife, and said with a smile: "Denmark is also known to be pro-British, but I don't know what the consequences will be if Denmark is removed from the list of countries with close ties to the UK?"

"Is Princess Victoria making a threat on behalf of the UK?" Christian sided with his daughter without hesitation.

Although he admitted that he was afraid of trouble and did not want to offend the major countries, he also loved his children very much. For this reason, although he could not do it, he could give up everything. Of course, that was the last step.

"What if this is a threat?" Crown Prince Frederick also sided with his wife without hesitation.

At this moment, Crown Prince Christian's face became extremely solemn. A British and Danish man was already under infinite pressure, almost suffocating. Now, with Crown Prince Frederick's statement, the situation has become even more serious.

The United Kingdom is difficult to deal with, not to mention the Kingdom of Prussia, which is not much weaker and is also a close neighbor. If Denmark really confronts them, it will be difficult for Denmark to survive.

Princess Louise saw her husband Christian's pale face, and she understood how much pressure her husband was under.

King Frederick was full of anxiety, and it showed on his face that he was still young and restless.

But at this time, Alexandra said again: "You two are guests from afar. It seems that the guests have deceived the host."

This time, before Princess Victoria could say anything, Crown Prince Frederick spoke first, "William IV has good taste, and so do you, Princess Alexandra. You two are a perfect match."

Before Princess Victoria could get angry, Crown Prince Frederick said: "But what Victoria said is right. Edward is passionately devoted to you, but you flirted with William IV and were about to get engaged in the end. This is a very special thing for Edward." It's unfair, and the purpose of Victory's coming here is actually understandable. After all, people outside are saying that you and Edward are in love. For this reason, he has used his image in the media. Now with the A series of engagements and marriages between you and William IV were announced to the public.

Think about it, how Edward will face the cynicism of the outside world in the future. This is not only related to the loss of dignity of a royal family member, but also related to the damage to the British national image.

Therefore, as the eldest princess of the United Kingdom, it is not difficult to understand that Victoria is so concerned about her brothers.

You should ask him, who came here to replace Edward, to understand the reason why Edward failed in love. This kind of thing is reasonable."

As Crown Prince Frederick finished speaking, everyone became extremely quiet.

Danish Crown Prince Christian and others were even more silent.

Yes, an emotional loser also needs to understand where he went wrong, what's wrong with that?

They even asked their sister, Princess Victoria, to come over to understand the situation.

What a deep brother-sister relationship this is.

So, involuntarily, several people turned their attention to Alexandra.

At this moment, even Frederick and his wife were looking at Alexandra, as if they were waiting to see her reasons.

"If we follow what the Crown Prince said, then there are so many people in the world who have crushes on others, do they all need to be responsible for anything they have a crush on?

In order to take care of his emotions, you need to make some concessions that others think you should feel guilty about. Even if it goes against your inner thoughts, you have to appease them first? "

Alexandra sarcastically said: "If according to this statement, so many people in the world want to be kings, do all the kings need to be kings? Then, only then will the people who feel that they are riding on them be eliminated. The person on the body is dissatisfied, but Crown Prince Frederick, if that happens, the world will already be in chaos."

"Strong words, I found that Princess Alexandra is not only beautiful, but also sharp-tongued."

Princess Victoria pressed further: "In any case, this time Denmark knew that the marriage with the Netherlands would cause dissatisfaction in the United Kingdom, but it still did this. I don't know if the international environment of Denmark can continue to be preserved as the relationship between Britain and Denmark deteriorates. I I think Crown Prince Christian should consider whether this is a problem.”

Princess Victoria reminded Crown Prince Christian to be careful of the fuse that causes the country to be in conflict.

"That is what our king should be most worried about. However, I think the cooperation between the United Kingdom and Denmark is mutually beneficial, not one-way transfer of benefits. Therefore, if the United Kingdom believes that Denmark is not suitable to become the core cooperation partner of the United Kingdom, then"

Crown Prince Christian said firmly: "I think the Russian Empire is also a good partner. The navy in St. Petersburg has actually wanted to cross the Oresund Strait without taxation a long time ago.

The Cabinet of the Kingdom of Denmark has actually given up on this idea. The Crown Princess of Denmark has no choice but to form an alliance with Tsarist Russia. In fact, it is a good way to establish distant relations and attack close quarters. What do you think? "

Frederick and his wife were shocked and looked at Crown Prince Christian in disbelief. They did not expect that Crown Prince Christian, who was always known for his weakness, would dare to say such a thing. Denmark, which is a semi-alliance with the United Kingdom, has one of the greatest security guarantees. However, As he said, the United Kingdom has indeed received huge security benefits, because the United Kingdom has obtained a treaty in Europe after Belgium, and British warships can temporarily dock in Copenhagen for naval supply and repair.

If Denmark suddenly stops giving Britain such treatment, then Denmark will be an area from Norway to the sea that the British cannot set foot in. It will be a huge loss for Britain, and the navy will only be able to roam the outer seas. For various countries, the power of power has been greatly reduced.

Therefore, the British government will not easily deny the benefits of continuing to maintain this relationship with Denmark.

Britain withdraws and Tsarist Russia comes. This is definitely not acceptable to the UK.

Because this means that Britain's strategic interests have retreated, but Tsarist Russia has taken a step closer to the British mainland.

Crown Prince Frederick also looked at Crown Prince Christian with complexity. Prussia would also be affected by Tsarist Russia building a seaport next to it.

For Prussia, this was a huge loss. He knew that Bismarck and others had always been dissatisfied with Denmark and were ambitious. If Denmark really introduced the Russian Empire, it would definitely have disastrous consequences for Bismarck's plan, and the plan would have to be completely rejected. OK. Therefore, he also fell silent.

Alexandra looked at her father curiously. It was rare to see her father being tough, so she still felt a little excited in her heart.

"Okay, these two visitors are guests, Christian. Let's stop this matter. We need to have a dinner party. It is said that His Majesty will come to attend."

At this time, Princess Louise broke the atmosphere and stood up at the right time, relaxing everyone's atmosphere.

"That's right, you two, let's go, the party is about to start."

On the Dutch African Fleet that had sailed to Africa, William IV did not know that an impromptu confrontation related to him that had just occurred in Denmark had come to an end, but he was now more interested in the plans of the Far East.

"If Australia builds railways, it will bring huge opportunities for jobs and consumption."
