Expedition to Europe

Life is really hard if you want to describe it as "enduring".

Germany is in the process of "Nirvana", and this hardship is necessary. In the future, if Germany shows signs of recovery and arouses the vigilance of the British and French, Germany will be even more difficult.

William III had expected this and had been mentally prepared, so he was not afraid in his words.

Qin Zhiyuan was even less afraid. Now even the British were trying to help the Germans rise again to balance the French. The French were busy with Deschanel's affairs. Even if Qin Zhiyuan did something, it would probably not cause strong opposition from the British and French.

William III was still busy and didn't even have time to eat breakfast. He chatted with Qin Zhiyuan for a while and returned to Berlin.

So the huge Wuyou Palace was left with only Qin Zhiyuan's family.

Not really, there were still a lot of German wounded soldiers.

Otherwise, Qin Zhiyuan didn't like the Grand Palace, so why build it so big? Not only is it a waste of money and labor, but it is also so empty that it makes people feel uneasy. If there are no palace maids and guards to increase popularity, it is really not a place for people to live.

No wonder William III doesn't want to live here. It is out of touch with reality.

It can be predicted that William III will not be seen for a few days after he leaves. Qin Zhiyuan and Zhu Li are not the type to stay here, so just after breakfast, Zhu Li discussed with Qin Zhiyuan about going out for a walk.

"Don't do it. It's not safe for you to stay in this Wuyou Palace with thousands of soldiers protecting you. If you go out for a walk, won't you turn the world upside down?" Dong Xingxiu put on a posture of death remonstrance, and he was almost crying and crying.

"If you change clothes and travel light, there should be no problem." Qin Zhiyuan was also a little tempted.

"There is a problem! Your face is the most obvious sign. At present, Germany is extremely sensitive to all unfamiliar faces, especially Oriental faces." Gao Hongshi knows more information.

In almost all countries, during social unrest, regardless of whether the ruling class consciously guides or not, there will always be a group that acts as a scapegoat. The most obvious manifestation in Germany is the Jews. No matter what happens in Germany, there will always be many people who think it is a conspiracy by the Jews, so Jews are very unwelcome in Germany.

It is not just Germany. In the whole of Europe, Jews are not welcome, so Jews flock to the United States. At least in the United States, Jews will not be discriminated against.

In Germany at present, Chinese people are not very welcome. The damage caused by the Chinese to the Germans during the World War was too great, and it was all real damage. It was different from the conspiracy of the Jews hiding in the basement. Countless Germans suffered losses from the Chinese on the battlefield. Not all Germans are convinced by the Chinese. There must be people who hold a grudge, so Chinese people are not welcome in Germany at present.

"You can put on makeup. There are still ways to cover up some Oriental facial features." Qin Zhiyuan is indeed prepared.

In his previous life, Qin Zhiyuan had received some training in makeup to facilitate his work. Although Qin Zhiyuan's makeup skills were not yet superb, he was already a master at going out to perform tasks, so it was not difficult to change his appearance.

"Your Majesty, if you really want to go out, you can choose to ride a horse at the horse farm. There are the best and most excellent horse breeds in the world, which can definitely satisfy your desire to gallop." Roy did not agree. Protecting Qin Zhiyuan was also Roy's job.

Although the whole of Germany was in a difficult situation, the privileged class still had enough "privileges", such as the good horses in the Wuyou Palace, which required special care and were very expensive, but in order to ensure that those big men could use them when needed, these "luxury goods" were still retained.

"Don't mention riding a horse. I get angry when I see a horse farm." Before Qin Zhiyuan spoke, Dong Zishi immediately objected.

It was because of riding a horse in Tokyo that Dong Zishi was demoted from earl to viscount. Dong Zishi really hated the horse farm.

Roy didn't know what happened at Tokyo Racecourse. Seeing Dong Zishi's firm opposition, he was really confused.

"Just go around nearby, don't show your identity, don't make a fuss, there shouldn't be any problems." Qin Zhiyuan was a little uncertain because he received too many objections.

"Your Majesty, there can't be a 'should' in this kind of thing, it must be an absolute! Because no matter what happens, it is a consequence we can't bear." Gao Hongshi's requirements for safety are almost harsh.

"Okay, okay, we won't go anywhere. Has the damaged vineyard been repaired? Why don't we go and take a look?" Qin Zhiyuan followed suit and didn't cause trouble for Gao Hongshi and the others.

"Okay, I'll go get Anzhe and let him breathe some fresh air." As long as there is a good thing, Julie will never forget Qin De.

The vineyard was damaged in the battle last night, and the degree of damage was quite serious. Almost all the glass covers were shattered, and many of the grape vines that drifted across the sea were uprooted. It is estimated that the vineyard will not be able to be restored to its original state in less than ten days and a half.

As soon as he arrived at the vineyard, before Qin Zhiyuan rolled up his sleeves, Rummenigge hurried over to report: "Your Majesty, His Majesty the King has arrived——"

It sounded like a wrong sentence, but Qin Zhiyuan understood it immediately.

William III was indeed anxious enough. He probably hadn't returned to Berlin yet, but now he sent William II here. It seems that he has really reached the limit of his patience.

When William II arrived at the Palace of Souci, Qin Zhiyuan had to greet him in person. This was not only a respect for William III, but also a respect for Germany.

William II, whose full name is Friedrich William Victor Albert von Hohenzollern, is over 60 years old, but he is still in good spirits. Although he is not tall, he is very strong. His eyes are a bit sharp, and he looks like he is always full of fighting spirit. His beard is impressive. The thick beard is trimmed very stylishly, with almost no arc-shaped transitions. It has corners and edges like a knife and an axe, and it still looks very powerful.

Qin Zhiyuan doesn't have much good feelings for William II, and now he is also keeping a polite smile.

Qin Zhiyuan's attention was more on the man behind William II. The man was tall and obviously fat. He was wearing a 1914 version of the German military uniform with the marshal's emblem. His thick beard was a little messy, not as stylish as William II. With his messy white hair, he looked like an old lion. Although he was no longer vigorous, he was still as majestic as before.

If Qin Zhiyuan guessed correctly, this should be the German marshal, the former German Army Chief of Staff, Paul von Hindenburg. (This guy's full name is longer, with 27 characters. In order to avoid the suspicion of making up the word count, interested brothers can Baidu.)

Sure enough, Roy and Rummenigge, who were not too excited to see William II, were obviously different when they saw Hindenburg. Their standing postures were particularly standard and their voices were very loud: "Welcome, His Excellency the Marshal."

It's a bit too much. The greetings to the Chief of Staff were louder than the greetings to the king. What does His Majesty think?

The original text can be found in the Six # 9 @Books/Bar!

William II was probably preoccupied with his thoughts and did not notice this detail. He just stood there with his hands crossed, ignoring Qin Zhiyuan's hand. His expression was cold and full of hatred: "Are you Qin? The King of Lan Fang? The Commander-in-Chief of the Foreign Legion?"

Three questions in a row, William II really had a deep grudge against Qin Zhiyuan.

In order to show his friendship, Qin Zhiyuan was the first to extend his hand to shake hands with William II, but he did not expect William II to be so rude and deliberately ignore Qin Zhiyuan's hand of friendship. So Qin Zhiyuan just shook his head and smiled helplessly, and did not answer William II's words. He turned around and told Gao Hongshi: "Send them to rest, and go directly on board in the afternoon. Keep a close eye on them and do not allow anyone to contact them."

Yes, Qin Zhiyuan said this on purpose.

You are a king who has abdicated, a king who once publicly expressed the "Yellow Disaster Theory", and a king who is still wearing the hat of a "war criminal". What qualifications do you have to pretend?

This is called shameless.

William II obviously did not expect Qin Zhiyuan to be so disrespectful. His face changed immediately and he was dumbfounded and speechless.

Roy and Rummenigge just watched coldly and did not mean to speak up for William II. This also made William II completely understand the current situation.

After all, William II still has his own self-esteem. Now William II can't say something like an apology.

"Your Majesty, please." Gao Hongshi did not hesitate. He came up and gestured to William II. Seeing that William II did not respond, he immediately waved and called two guards.

This is going to be a hard one.

The guards had seen Qin Zhiyuan being humiliated just now. Now that they had received Gao Hongshi's signal, the two guards were really eager to try. Their hands holding rifles tightened subconsciously. It seemed that if William II still couldn't recognize the situation, the two guards wouldn't mind letting William II taste the iron fist of Lan Fang.

"Your Majesty, please forgive me. His Majesty has received too much stimulation recently, so his behavior is a bit abnormal. I will bring His Majesty to apologize to you." Hindenburg was still able to bend and stretch.

Compared with William II's unruly temper, Hindenburg's temperament was much calmer, otherwise Hindenburg and Ludendorff would not have been in harmony during the World War.

"Your Majesty - there is one thing you must understand clearly. A country, a centralized country, cannot have two kings, and it is impossible for multiple orders to be issued. If you don't understand this, then you can be sure that the embarrassment you will encounter in the future will definitely not be just this little bit." Facing a little old man like Hindenburg who was over 70 years old, Qin Zhiyuan really couldn't be cold.

It is easier said than done to recognize the situation. If William II had been able to recognize the situation, how could his relationship with William III have reached this point?
