Capítulo 494: Chapter 407 Queen Mary and "The Crown Princess

Within the small theater of Petit Trianon Palace, Joseph unfastened the buttons of his cumbersome theatrical costume and pointed to the actors reciting their lines on stage. He turned to Talleyrand and said:

"I apologize, please speak up. It's too noisy here, I can't hear clearly."

"Oh, of course, Your Highness," the Foreign Minister raised his voice, "The British have two main demands.

"First, France must not provide any support to Mysore, including recalling Marquis de Lafayette.

"Second, France must issue an announcement clarifying that Britain and the Southern Netherlands exporting revolutions is not connected."

"As expected," Joseph nodded, "And what do we gain?"

Talleyrand, clearly excited, took out his notes and read aloud:

"First, Britain will not support North African countries, including Morocco, and will publicly condemn the aggressive actions of Algiers, Morocco, and Tripoli against Tunisia.
