The War Court and Lap Pillow, Austria's Mandate of Heaven

The scandal in Milan made Vienna's high-level very angry. Such a large-scale riot, such a large number of casualties, and it happened in the core city, had only happened in Hungary before.

However, they seem to only intend to deal with local officials and garrisons, and feel that this is caused by the incompetence of officials and the dereliction of duty of the garrisons.

But Franz's view is just the opposite. Both the local officials and the garrison are very capable. Lin like that.

The great powers can make a big fuss about this, and even the second-largest kingdom like the Kingdom of Sardinia is not considered an effect. As long as they have enough strength, they can also propose to the Austrian Empire to make Lombardy independent (Milan belongs to the Lombardy region).

Although it sounds like a joke now, historically it was this small country, less than one-eighth the size of France, that unified Italy and eventually drove out the power of Austria and France.

In fact, riots/uprisings often occurred in Europe in this era, and due to technical limitations, not many could be detected and stopped in advance.

Whether it was the workers' uprising in Britain, or the assassination of politicians and celebrities by radical parties, or several large-scale uprisings in France (Lyon workers' strike, Provence peasants' rebellion against taxes), or the Silesian uprising in Prussia, the Polish uprising in Russia, and even It was a coup by the Decembrists.

The actual results of the above are much worse than what happened in Milan, so Franz felt that the local officials and the army should be rewarded.

Franz is well aware of how difficult it is for those Italian officials. He is constrained by local forces all day long, and he doesn't have many capable people. Although he has the emperor's order as a guarantee, the most he can do is to attack the local separatism on the surface. Power (toubob) only.

But in fact, local businessmen, churches, and gangsters have long formed an interest group, and under the banner of tradition and religion, they coerce the people, corrupt and kidnap officials.

This is also one of the main reasons why local people cannot serve as the chief executive and military chief.

As for the army, this kind of extreme restraint in public security warfare often causes great losses, and at the same time, it will cause great psychological pressure on the soldiers.

Long-term depression can even drive ordinary people crazy, and it is hard to say what these people will do in the future when they have such a high-risk occupation as soldiers and have no social status at the time.

Franz does not intend to let this group of people shed blood and tears, and even have no money for burial after death.

However, the national system cannot be changed arbitrarily. Naturally, wages and pensions cannot be started, so they can only appear in the form of awards, otherwise it will only arouse the envy of the military in other regions.

Of course, Franz was not going to pay the money alone, so he applied to the imperial government for the job.

In fact, Lombardy is nominally the territory of Archduke Franz Karl. As the eldest son of the former, Franz Joseph went to inspect the people's situation and express condolences to the army.

The upper echelons of the empire were a little uneasy, because there had just been an uprising in the area, and Franz might be in danger, which would be a heavy blow to both the royal family and the empire.

Franz didn't think so, if those royal guards were really that weak, then he might die even if he stayed in the palace.

Look at the Grand Duchess Louise of Parma who went against the grain all day long and offended the most radical group of people in France, but she still lived a life of extravagance and corruption with a group of fresh meat.

Franz sympathized with the aunt's experience, but did not agree with her actions.

But Franz does not plan to go to Parma this time, he just wants to solve what happened in Milan.

Since Franz's attitude was very firm, the empire had no choice but to agree. Both the imperial government and Mrs. Sophie felt that Franz needed a guardian.

Franz Joseph then boarded the train to Milan with his father, Archduke Franz Karl.

Franz was stunned by this operation, and he didn't know who would look at who afterwards.

Franz was suspecting that Mrs. Sophie was planning something, but the latter denied it and said that he just hoped that the former and his father would develop more relationships.

There are more than 1000 people on the train who are all guards and servants. The railway company even made a temporary transformation to welcome the two royal grand dukes.

A huge bulletproof glass window was installed in the middle layer of the car, so that the scenery outside the window can be seen clearly.

Archduke Franz Karl cried out in excitement as he watched the scenery fly by outside the window.

"Look, Franz! That tree moves!"

"Father, it's the train that's moving."

"Look, Franz! The bird is flying backwards!"

"Father, we are the ones moving forward."

"Wow! Wow! Wow! Wow!! So fast! Better than riding a horse!"

“Father, you can consider sitting down and having a drink, and then get some sleep, and we’ll be there.”

"Good idea, have a shot of tequila."

Adjani immediately stepped forward to fill a cup for Archduke Franz Karl.

"Please enjoy."

"Thank you." Usually, his own attendants or his own servants poured wine for him. Grand Duke Franz Karl was still a little unaccustomed, so he instinctively looked at it twice, and then said to his son.

"Frantz, won't you have a drink?"

Adjani was such a good thing, she immediately picked up the wine bottle, and Franz quickly held down the glass.

"I want juice thanks."

Adjani glanced at Kagura, who immediately bowed her head and walked backwards.

"When will you grow up like this?" Archduke Franz Karl said meaningfully.

"Father, getting older has nothing to do with drinking or not."

"Why doesn't it matter?"

"Aging is only about the passage of time."

"Why did that time pass?"

"Because that is an objective law!"

"What is the objective law?"

Franz Fuer didn't want to continue this endless question "...Father, you drink too much."

"I don't have much"

"That's what drunk people do."

"Okay then, I'm going to rest, eat and drink well!"

The Lombard government held a grand welcome ceremony at the station, after which the two royal grand dukes were arranged into a palace of the Habsburg family.

Then came the overwhelming gift list, as well as boxes of gifts.After all, they are members of the royal family, especially when the father and son are the first and second heirs to the throne.

In fact, the nobles and businessmen in these places usually have no chance to give gifts to the father and son, and generally speaking, those things will not be accepted.

This time, these people were very surprised, because the two grand dukes accepted everything according to their orders.But think about it, after all, the father and son in the legend are not normal.

Adjani actually didn't understand, after all, the gifts given by these gentry in the Lombardy region were too shabby compared to the gifts received in Vienna.

And even if it was a generous gift, Franz would rarely accept it.

Facing Adjani's question.

Franz's answer is "take it from the people and use it for the people."
