Chapter 12: For the glory of the nobility

The goal was achieved, and the two continued to talk about each other, as if nothing had happened just now. In fact, Franz had already hinted that he accepted the generosity of Archduke Louis.
Human debt is not good, but for Franz, sometimes it is not a good thing to owe a few more.
For example, now he is on the line with this conservative leader, everyone can be regarded as their own.
Otherwise, why did Franz come to him and let him sell this favor? Is there no other way for the Imperial Crown to join the Royal Guard?
Obviously, it does not exist. As long as Franz is willing, he can step in even if he does not have any position. The Royal Guard only serves the royal family. The first loyalty is the emperor, and the crown prince is the second loyalty.
"Uncle Louis, the country hasn't been very peaceful recently!" Franz asked curiously.
"Well, it's not our Prime Minister who is calling for reform every day. Now a bunch of capitalists have turned into reformists, seeking benefits under the banner of patriotism.
Our Prime Minister pretended to be invisible, staring at our aristocracy every day, as if to hinder the progress of the cancer in Austria! Said Archduke Louis dissatisfied
Does Prime Minister Metternich ignore the bourgeoisie? So what does the secret police do? Can't it be used to arrest nobles?
As a representative of the aristocratic class, in addition to the abolition of serfs, Prime Minister Metternich has harmed everyone's interests. Most of the time, he is the defender of the aristocratic interests!
Of course, these words, just think about it, Franz will never say. Right now, this Austrian conservative leader, talking about this in front of him, is not pulling hatred?
"Uncle Louis, since capitalists can use the name of patriotism to reform, our nobles can also hold high the banner of reform!" Franz smiled
This is a good habit developed by Franz. I don't know why. After crossing, he likes to dig around.
"Oh, Franz, are you kidding me?" Archduke Louis asked incredulously.
Aristocratic class holds high the banner of reform, isn't this nonsense? You know that the current reforms are all cutting the aristocracy's flesh and letting them cut their own flesh. Is this possible?
Franz explained: "Of course, Uncle Louis, I'm not a joke! Capitalists can propose reforms, can't our nobles come up with reforms?"
Archduke Louis fell into meditation. It was a consensus that the Austrian empire had to undergo reforms, but such reforms could not harm their interests. This was why conservatives opposed reforms.
Franz's proposal, in his opinion, was to let the nobles take the initiative and hold the right to reform in their hands.
He did not doubt Franz's bad intentions, because the bourgeoisie was also an enemy of the royal family, and capitalists led the reform to deprive the emperor of their rights first.
This is only a moderate. If the radical bourgeoisie is changed, the people will play the republican system. As long as they refer to Charles I and Louis XVI, no emperor will like them.
Franz, the crown prince, is naturally no exception, but his position is determined by the ass. Now when Franz talks to him, doesn't he repeatedly emphasize "we"? This is determined by the class, and the royal family and the nobles naturally stand together.
"Franz, what plans do you have, can you elaborate?" Asked Grand Duke Louis with concern.
Now he dare not underestimate Franz. From his previous contacts, this is clearly a little fox, but his political means are very smooth.
"Uncle Louis, have you noticed that the bourgeoisie wants to liberate serfs, and the banner is freedom and equality?" Franz asked
"Of course, the people shouted every day. In addition to these, they also made a lot of unreasonable demands such as constitutional reform and national autonomy.
In essence, it is not for their own benefit. Their factories lacked cheap labor and wanted to abolish serfdom. They were actually a group of vampires.
We must know that most workers do not live as well as serfs. We will at least provide them with food, clothing and shelter, and we must support them when they are old.
But the evil capitalists are not so kind. Once they become their workers, they can live for ten years, and once they are old, they will be driven out of their own lives.
After working hard for them all their lives, they will end up on the streets. May God punish these vampires! Archbishop Louis complained in anger
I have to admit that Grand Duke Louis told some of the truth. Capitalists in this era were really dark, and most workers' lives were not as good as serfs. This is not wrong.
Judging from the average life expectancy, the average life expectancy in cities is 3 to 5 years lower than that in rural areas, and the cruelty of capitalists can be seen.
Ordinary workers were abolished almost ten years after entering the factory, and most of them lived under the age of forty.
However, most aristocrats are also not good. Everyone is a vampire, and no one is noble.
"Uncle Louis, I know all these things. Since the capitalists can call for the abolition of serfdom under the guise of fighting for the rights of serfs, why can't we limit the development and growth of the bourgeoisie under the banner of working for the working class?" Franz sneered
Seeing people talking, seeing ghosts talking about ghosts.
Now Franz will be the face and face of the feudal aristocracy, full of romance, look expressions anxious to be able to tear all the bourgeoisie.
"Working for the welfare of the working class? I'm afraid not. Many of our nobles also have workshops to improve the treatment of workers and harm the interests of many people!" Said Grand Duke Louis, looking forward and backward.
Looking at the expression of Archduke Louis, Franz knew that history had no wrong evaluation of him-indecision, but such talents may have success.
"Compared to the glory of the aristocracy, what are some benefits? If the bourgeoisie is not restricted, I am afraid that it will not be many years before they will on our heads!
Uncle Louis, haven't you discovered the power of the bourgeoisie and have been growing? If we continue to do this, one day we will not be able to suppress them! "Franz flickered.
This is also useful now. The aristocracy has not transformed into the bourgeoisie. Even if some people invest in industry and commerce, they will not go into battle.
I want them to sit up with the capitalists, I'm sorry the noble master can't afford to lose that person. This is true of ordinary nobles, not to mention the great nobles like Grand Duke Louis.
