Chapter 8 Brazilian Royal Succession

PreviousBack to directoryNext
 Night, João Palace study room.

During the day, Tangning and her sister Helen not only had a long and warm relationship with their mother Anna, but also visited the city under their father's rule.

At night, the family gathered together, and finally after the family had a warm meal, Francisco and Tangning and his son had a real private time to talk.

"Father, how about the last time I telegraphed to you, asking you to contact Isabel, the patriarch of the Brazilian royal family?"

At this time, Tangning's eyes were filled with hope and she was very unstable. She asked her father Francisco urgently, anxiously wanting to know the answer.

"Aunt Isabel, do you agree that I will inherit the Brazilian royal family? Let me be the king of Brazil."

"I didn't expect that my son would be so anxious."

Francisco, who has been watching Tangning grow up, knows that his son is a proud and conceited person.

He has never seen his son pay so much attention to one thing and ask him to accomplish it, which makes him very motivated.

When Tangning finally asks him to do something, Francis, as his father, must handle it well.

"My sister Isabel is very easy to communicate with at no cost.

She knows that she cannot regain Brazil, so she is willing to teach this hope to you, a descendant of her own race, and very much hopes that you will be blessed by God, create miracles, and regain the Kingdom of Brazil."

Ah!

Did it go so smoothly? Tangning thought there would be some twists and turns.

"Aunt Isabel, do you think so highly of me?" Tang Lin said in shock.

"Yes, my sister Isabel values ​​you, a junior member of the family, very much.

After all, now he is the only one left in the entire Brazilian royal family, and there is no chance of restoring the glory of the Braganza family in Brazil.

Tangning, your intelligence and outstanding talents have long been spread throughout the aristocratic circles, and your Aunt Isabel has also heard about it.

Therefore, after a brief consideration, she did not refuse to hand over the Brazilian royal family to you. You are so talented, maybe you can really regain the Brazilian Kingdom of Braganza.

Although the hope is small, Isabel is still looking forward to your growth and hopes you will bring miracles!

She wants you to pay attention to your safety, but it doesn’t matter if you can’t.”

After hearing her father convey the expectations of Aunt Isabel, the head of the Brazilian royal family, to him, Tangning took a deep breath and made an extremely serious promise that was destined to be difficult to fulfill.

"I, Tangning, will not let down Aunt Isabel's hope, and I will do my best to regain the Kingdom of Brazil!"

After Tangning came to this world, she gradually changed. Especially stimulated by her father's changes, her desire for power gradually emerged.

Before coming to Europe, the family lived happily. Tangning was not a naturally ambitious person, and was content with the warmth of her family.

However, after coming to Europe, under the influence of the surrounding political environment, and seeing the changes made by her father as he took on the responsibilities of the family, Tangning also changed accordingly.

Although at first Tang Ning still wrote novels, kept company with beautiful women, occasionally participated in business, and lived a very free and unrestrained life, people will eventually change.

Seeing her father's changes and her father-in-law always worried about the fate of the country, Tang Ning also began to be motivated.

Tangning was born at the starting line of most people, especially with the knowledge and vision of the great era. She used her talents to help her father at a young age, and her family became richer, and she was content with the status quo for a long time.<

/p>

However, since his engagement to Marie, he has seen Luxembourg carefully maintain its neutrality, and his father-in-law, Guillaume IV, has been worried about the outbreak of war between Germany and France and affecting the country.

In addition, after witnessing his father's changes and his courage to shoulder family responsibilities, Tang Lin also began to be affected.

When you come to this world, you can’t be happy alone after all.

Looking at her father and father-in-law, Tangning quickly came up with her own life goal, which was to inherit and restore the family honor and the ambition to build a big and powerful country.

From the moment he had an ideal, Tang Ning was not satisfied with just inheriting his father-in-law's and his father's property safely, and he gradually came up with his own plans.

Whether it is Luxembourg or Portugal, they are small and weak countries after all. No matter how well they develop, the ceiling is within sight.

Luxembourg, to put it bluntly, is a country with a big nose. It has a population of less than 100,000. No matter how well developed it is, what’s the use?

Portugal is a small country in the Iberian Peninsula. Although it has many colonies, its territory and population are too limited. It is almost impossible to develop and become a powerful country.

Portugal, located on the Iberian Peninsula, is particularly weak against the backdrop of Spain next door.

Spain is at least five times larger than Portugal, and its population is more than four times. The two countries have countless grievances and grievances.

Historically, Portugal has always been weak in the face of Spain, and was even annexed for a time. The glorious Suebi Kingdom was also destroyed by the Spanish Visigothic Kingdom.

After five hundred years of separation, the national consciousness of Spain and Portugal has long been separated. It is difficult to complete the union, let alone reintegrate them into one nation.

In this Europe, which is full of dangers and has many big countries, even if Portugal and Spain temporarily merge, it is almost impossible to persist on the continent.

Tangning thought about it and found that only Brazil could satisfy his ambition and support his dream of becoming a powerful country.

Although it is definitely not easy to obtain the actual rule of Brazil, as long as you obtain the right to claim it, Tang Ning believes that through careful planning and taking advantage of the trend of the times, it is not impossible to succeed.

Brazil expelled the Braganza dynasty of Perode II and became a republic. It didn't get better, it just got worse!

The king was driven away, and the people thought that life would get better. In fact, on the contrary, they became more and more disappointed with the government.

There has been a fleeting regime change, military conflicts from time to time, and a weak and incompetent civilian government. There is no stable and progressive regime. The upper class is corrupt, corruption is rampant, and people are living in poverty. They begin to miss the past.

The people actually miss the Kingdom of Brazil, and some people have taken action, but the power is too weak, and after Pedro II arrived in Europe, he almost stopped paying attention to Brazil.

The country of Brazil has done too much harm to this monarch who once aspired to change the country.

Although Brazil, Argentina, and Chile are known as the three pillars of South America and the three powerful countries of ABC, they are just as broken as Tucson.

Brazil has wasted the foundation of a big country. They have lowered the ceiling so low. They have reached this level. Look at how the United States of America rubs against Mexico. What is there to be proud of?

"Son, I don't understand why you want the inheritance rights of the Brazilian royal family.

At first, I thought you wanted to get addicted to the king, give yourself the title in the future, and add a strong claim of king after it. It is quite powerful to say it like this.

However, looking at the way you vowed just now, I didn’t expect that you really want to regain the Kingdom of Brazil.”

Francisco didn't expect that his son Tangning, who had always been lazy, leisurely, and leading a carefree life, would change so much and even want to restore the Kingdom of Brazil.

Damn it!

Is this how dad sees himself?

"Father, is this how you look at me? You don't know my talents yet, how can you look down on me like this?"

"No, it's not.

Tangning, of course I know about your intelligence and talent, but restoring the country in the American continent is no joke. It is not only difficult, but also life-threatening."

Francisco has never looked down on his son. Tangning's performance since childhood only amazed him and never let him down.

However, some things don’t just require hard work.

In Francisco's view, it is completely impossible to recover Brazil.

Take Portugal for example.

Francisco wanted to regain the rule of the Miguel Braganza royal family in Portugal. The reason why he still had some hope was that he was in Europe and the Gotha family of Carlos I was defeated and unpopular.<

/p>

In Europe, although the Republican Party is not a small force, the monarchists are stronger.

Take France, for example. If the three French royal families hadn't been at odds with each other, it would have been the Republicans' turn to be in power until now.

After the Franco-Prussian War, the French government was established. The restoration of the monarchy was very powerful from the beginning, but it was very divided and it maintained the appearance of a republic.

Can you say that?

As long as the three French royal families, the Bourbon family, the Orleans family and the Napoleon family, merge now, it won't take long for the Kingdom of France to be restored.

The situation in Europe is not the situation after World War I.

Today's European monarchs can accept the replacement of a royal family in Portugal, but it is very difficult to accept the emergence of a republic.

The South American continent where Brazil is located is exactly the opposite of Europe.

Regardless of whether it is North America or South America, in more than a dozen countries large and small, the republican forces are strong, and most countries even have no monarchist forces at all.

Historically, there have been kingdoms in Brazil and Mexico. If you add the ridiculous Haiti, there are three kingdoms.

However, the ending of the subjugation of these three countries is more tragic than the last. The Brazilian royal family is relatively good and has saved its wealth and life.

In Mexico and Haiti, the royal families of the kingdoms that existed in the past were each in worse condition than the other. Even if European royal families were invited to go, no one would go now.

Even in these two countries, no European nobles claim the royal claims.

Believe it or not?

As long as there is a stubborn noble who picks up the claim rights of these two countries, he will definitely be annoyed by various assassinations, and it will not end until he dies.

The republican forces in these two countries are very willing to use the head of an ungrateful noble to improve their reputation
