Conquer the world starting from the Kaiser's driver

"Fritz, can you help me see what I'm going to do with this matter?"

Alexandrine picked up the document on the table in distress and handed it to Lin Shangzhou, who was sitting on the sofa drinking tea, saw the emperor hand him the document, put down the teacup, got up and was about to get it, but Noah took the document in his hand and sent it to him one step ahead.

"Thank you. After thanking Noah, Lin Shangzhou took the document and read the contents of it, this is a document related to personnel changes, to put it simply, Papen is preparing to change the blood of the main officials of the government agency, so he sent this document to Alexandrin.

Although Papen had only one year left in his term, and he took over halfway, he spent the next year dealing with the mess left by Albert, the stray prime minister, and sailing smoothly, and it would not be too difficult for him to be re-elected in the 1932 election, taking advantage of the prestige and reputation accumulated by the Centre Party in the first decade.

Lin Shangzhou put down the document and looked at Alexandrind and said: "Since Mr. Papen wants to change people, then you can approve it, this is not a big deal, it is normal for the new prime minister to replace the members of government agencies with his own people after taking office."

Alexandrine was stunned for a moment when she heard this, then picked up another document and said with some embarrassment: "It's not this matter, I just got the wrong document, it's written on this one."

This time, Lin Shangzhou got up and came to Alexandrine, put the document on personnel changes in his hand on the table, and took another document.

Lin Shangzhou did not return to the sofa but stood in front of the table and looked at the contents of the document in detail, as he read the document, Lin Shangzhou's expression also became serious, he pinched the corner of the paper with one hand, and put the other hand against his chin to think about how to deal with this matter.

The document, which distressed Alexandrin, was related to the reform of the voting system in Prussia and the re-establishment of the Federal Parliament, the three-tier voting system that Lin Shangzhou knew and knew that most of the democratic decision-making systems in Germany during Ludendorff's dictatorship were abolished and the Bundestag was forced to close.

After the "turnip winter", Wilhelm II promised the people substantial democratic reforms, but then again, the promises were promised, but in fact, in the history of the KX, Wilhelm II did not carry out democratic reforms in the true sense of the word until 36 years later.

Lin Shangzhou remembered the names of a series of national policies, "The Reorganization of the Imperial Government", "The Easter Promise", "Democracy in Prussia", and "The Reconstruction of the Federal Parliament".

These symbolic national policies of democratization of the German Empire would not appear until 36 years later, but there would certainly have been talk of rebuilding the Federal Parliament before that, as is the case now.

Alexandrine leaned on the chair and looked up at Lin Shangzhou, who was deep in thought, quietly waiting for him to finish thinking, she didn't know the relationship between the Federal Assembly and the Imperial Assembly, and she didn't know what the pros and cons of this matter were, so she asked Lin Shangzhou for help.

Lin Shangzhou has reason to think that Papen sent this document not really to rebuild the federal parliament, but to test Alexandrin's attitude, after all, the promise was made by her grandfather, and whether she as the successor wants to fulfill this promise depends on her own attitude.

During this time, Lin Shangzhou, who was with Alexandrine to deal with government affairs, also learned more about the current political situation in Germany, which was temporarily held by the Reichstag and the emperor after the forced closure of the Bundestag.

After the unexpected death of Wilhelm II, the legislative power was controlled by Albert at that time, which was one of the important reasons why Alexandrinne was able to succeed to the throne - Albert used his power to amend the Inheritance Law.

Although the closure of the Bundestag violated the constitution of the German Empire, the re-establishment of the Bundestag from the end of the First World War to 36 shows that the right wing that controls German politics is indifferent to the existence of the Bundestag, and if the Bundestag can benefit them, then even if Wilhelm II is unwilling to re-establish the Bundestag, German politicians will force Wilhelm II to re-establish the Bundestag according to the constitution.

Wilhelm II could not do anything if he did not want to, because the constitution stated that "the legislative power of the Reich shall be exercised by the Federal Assembly and the Reichstag, and the laws of the Reich shall obtain the consent of the necessary majority of both parliaments." "

The constitution requires a federal parliament and an imperial parliament, so there must be an imperial parliament and a federal parliament.

At the same time, although the emperor has the right to dissolve the federal parliament, as long as one-third of the representatives of the federal parliament ask the emperor to restart the federal parliament, the emperor must restart the federal parliament, which is equivalent to canceling the emperor's right to dissolve.

However, the current situation is that German politicians do not care whether the Bundestag is established or not, and all the affairs of Germany are concentrated in a single chamber of the Reichstag.

The re-establishment of the Bundestag was a democratic step forward for the people, as the people would have one more place to appeal, and the abolition of the Prussian three-tier voting system would be a great step forward for the democratization process in Germany.

These two events are a good thing for the emperor and the ruling party, as they increase the prestige of the emperor and the ruling party among the people, while at the same time expanding the voter base is also beneficial to the SPD's candidacy.

However, both of these events are not good for the SPD, as they will increase the prestige of the ruling party, and if this democratization process is proposed and successfully implemented by the central party prime minister during the term of office, the central party, which has its own prestige among the people, will be more expected, which will make it more difficult for the SPD to win the general election.

Lin Shangzhou now suddenly felt that the interface for choosing the national policy was in front of him, and Alexandrine herself had no opinion on this matter, and his ideas would determine whether Germany started the process of democratization now.

He took a few steps back and sat down on the sofa and fell into deep thought, this is a difficult thing to choose, in addition to the personal ability of Nazi's top management, it is also inseparable from the social environment at the time, the German people definitely need democracy, but if the democratization process in Germany is started now, it is equivalent to sending a signal to the German people that the Central Party can also bring democracy to the German people.

The SPD's main competitiveness in the election campaign is to start the process of democratization, and if this is lost, the SPD will be in an awkward position.

After some careful consideration, Lin Shangzhou decided not to point out these national policies, and the point should be pointed out when the SPD is in power, and this kind of good thing to increase prestige cannot be cheapened by others.

Moreover, the fact that this document is only an inquiry rather than a hope shows that the Centre Party has no intention of doing so, and since they do not actually intend to do so, there is no need to help them.

In the final analysis, Lin Shangzhou still has to think about his own Social Democratic Party.

He put the papers on the table and said to Alexandrine, "Alexandrin, you don't have to give a definite reply, just say a few words ambiguously. "

Huh?"

Alexandrin's eyes showed some confusion, she didn't understand why Lin Shangzhou let her do this.

Then Lin Shangzhou told her his thoughts and helped her write a reply to Tai Chi, he didn't agree, but he didn't disagree, he believed that Papen could understand the attitude he had released for Alexandrin.

After helping Alexandrinne solve this problem, Lin Shangzhou returned to the sofa and sat down, continuing to drink his own tea, he looked up at Noah standing beside him, and couldn't help but think of Laetia, who had been home for ten days.

It's now May 17th, and it's time for Letia to come back if the time is calculated, with Catherine by her side, Lin Shangzhou is not worried about any accidents, but Lin Shangzhou is inevitably a little worried about this girl leaving for ten days.

(I don't know when Laetia will be back...)

Just as he was thinking this, there was a knock in the silent room, and Alexandrinne said please come in without looking up, and Laetita pushed the door and walked in.

Seeing Laetia walk in safely and soundly, the worry in Lin Shangzhou's heart disappeared, replaced by joy from the bottom of his heart, but before he could say anything to Laetia, he saw Laetia say to himself and Alexandrine with a serious expression:

"Your Majesty, Filitz, I have something I want to ask you for help. "
