Chapter 15: Force the palace

In the interest of watching the liveliness, Franz went to visit another Conservative leader, Count Koloft, and expressed concern about the current situation.
Everyone is a well-informed master. What role Franz played in this political conflict is not a secret at the highest levels of government.
However, everyone is disciplined. Franz's origin is destined to be his own. At least when facing the bourgeois revolution, everyone is a boat person. Naturally, no one will leak the news.
Of course, even if someone leaks the news, it is useless. The conflict between the aristocracy and the bourgeoisie cannot be alleviated. What should we do?
Let the aristocracy give up suppressing the bourgeoisie? Or let the bourgeoisie give up power?
At this time no one can make concessions and dare not give in. Taking a step back now is not the vast sky, but the abyss.
I have to say that there is a small benefit to being young, otherwise Franz will go directly to the front desk.
Of course, it's more that the Regent's Committee doesn't want to give up the rights in its hands so early, they must carry it back.
It is okay for Franz to pull hatred against the bourgeoisie. The consequence is that the Crown Prince regents in advance and the regents become history.
On the other hand, the life of Prime Minister Metternich was difficult. He, who represented the interests of the aristocracy, considered himself a reformist, and seemed to be less coordinated.
Originally, the two factions in Austria were fighting for their lives, and Franz stirred up another. Now the good conservatives have also started to reform.
In the past, people always talked about serfdom, criticized the conservatives for hindering Austria's progress, deprived serfs of their personal freedom, and brutally oppressed them.
Now the aristocracy has begun to fight back, comparing the lives of workers and serfs, and suddenly we realize that there are still more miserable things.
No matter how distressed the nobles are, they can't let the serfs do 15 to 16 hours of work every day. Except for the busy season of the peasants, where are there so many things?
Lighting was not cheap in this era. Capitalists let workers work night shifts, which is making money. If nobles let serfs work night shifts, they will lose money.
Needless to say, the lives of workers and serfs are the same-suffering!
Only relatively speaking, workers in this era are more bitter. The factory is like a prison. Once you enter, it is difficult to get out. A slight mistake is a beating.
Whether you can get a good salary depends on the discipline of the capitalists. You can get a little bit if you haven't died of conscience. If you run into cruel hands, you can owe him a debt for several years.
The problem of difficult salary, not to mention that in this era, even in the 21st century, many areas have not been resolved.
Happiness is all contrasted, so is pain.
Under the control of the nobility, the working class suddenly felt that they were the most bitter. At this time, the government must formulate a "labor protection fee", and it must support it!
A series of issues related to self-interest, the so-called constitutional reforms, popular elections, and the abolition of serfdom, can be postponed indefinitely.
The bourgeoisie is also not a soft persimmon. It is related to its own interests. It is an impertinence. At this time, patriotism was eaten by dogs.
The Prime Minister Metternich in the middle got a headache. This diplomatic strongman was unable to deal with internal contradictions.
Like the previous reforms to abolish serfdom, he is still negotiating with representatives of the bourgeoisie in an attempt to gain their understanding and develop an answer that everyone can accept.
"My Excellency, I want to know when the Labour Protection Act will come out?" Count Kloft asked indifferently.
As the political opponent of Prime Minister Metternich, how can he not do things at this time? Even without Franz's suggestion, he will take action, but now his purpose is more clear.
"Earl Colloft, the formulation of any law will take some time. We need to conduct an actual investigation and then conduct a comprehensive analysis. Wait patiently!" Metternich said disdainfully.
He was too lazy to deal with political enemies. Anyway, no matter how nice it is, everyone is an enemy.
"My Excellency Prime Minister, I can wait, but the workers outside can't wait. You know that there are hundreds of workers in Austria every day, and they die because of the unscrupulous oppression of capitalists!
Aren't they living as patriots? It is immoral to accuse us of depriving serfs of freedom every day. What do they do now?
Aren't workers Austrian citizens? You must know that most of these workers are serfs we release. The liberation of serfs not only did not make them better, but fell into another abyss!
This abyss is even more terrible, he will devour it all, and finally destroy the entire Austria! Count Collof snarled at Prime Minister Metternich
This is a general again. The purpose of liberating serfs is to make serfs live a better life, but the result is just the opposite. Too much evidence shows that their lives have become worse.
This was a heavy blow to Metternich's abolition of serfdom, and his work must be stopped before the problem can be solved.
But to solve this problem meant that he had to break with the bourgeoisie who supported the abolition of serfdom, and even beat the bourgeoisie down.
The majority of reformists in the country today are bourgeois, which will shake his status as prime minister unless he moves closer to the aristocracy.
Well, Prime Minister Metternich himself is a representative of the great aristocracy, and has always stood with the aristocracy. Except for the abolitionist movement, he does not reject the compromise with the aristocratic class again. The problem is that this station team also has articles.
He cannot be forced to stand in line, which is related to future dominance. Metternich also wanted to be the leader of the aristocratic class, not to be an agent supported by the aristocratic class.
"Well, Count Koloft. The government will answer this question as soon as possible, and you can go back and wait for the news!" Metternich frowned.
"I hope so, otherwise our Prime Minister will be disappointing!" Count Kloft said eccentrically.
After sending Count Kolovt away, Prime Minister Metternich's face suddenly gloomed, and he was forced into the palace. It is strange that his mood can be good.
After a moment of contemplation, Metternich patted the table and said to himself, "Just a little trick, I want to seize power. Kolov seems to be really old!"
When he said that, it seemed like he was very young. In fact, Metternich, born in 1773, was also 74 years old.
