The prince said to the emperor without thinking: "In my opinion, this young man is not bad in general, he is a good child with kind nature. He is also very smart and capable, but he is still somewhat lacking in experience."

Charles VI rolled his eyes and said angrily: "Can you make some serious judgment? There is no problem with any young man in the empire that you said."

After being criticized by Charles VI, the prince said helplessly: "Oh, the time is too short, and I dare not make any conclusions at the moment. To be honest, this child is hiding a little deeper. I do see some advantages from him, but it may also be that he performed for me. This child is not easy to figure out."

"Haha, so that's the case. Then this kid really has something to do. Even you, the old fox, can't see through it at a glance." Charles VI was much more happy when he heard this. He rubbed his hands excitedly and said, "If this is the case, then you can cultivate this Eugen. It's good that it's not easy to see through it. When the two sides confront each other, the most feared thing is that your teammates are seen through it at a glance."

The prince's impression of Eugen was generally quite good. He supported him when he saw that Charles VI had the intention to cultivate Eugen.

However, after thinking about it, the prince still spoke: "Your Majesty, according to my opinion, Eugen's affairs, don't worry. It's better to put him aside and let him stand for a while. After a while, we will understand his nature better, it will not be too late to make a decision."

Charles VI was reminded by the prince and calmed down. After a while, he nodded and said, "Well, that's fine. I've given him enough Count. If he has the ability, he can get the rest without giving it to him; if he doesn't have the ability, he will be lost even if he gives it to him."

After saying that, Charles VI sighed again and continued with melancholy: "Oh, I'm also anxious. There are too few talents to trust under my command, and there is really no one to use it."

Prince Eugen knew that half of the reason why Charles VI sighed was because of the state edict on the heirs of the empire on the table. As the emperor, no descendant had inherited his own country. Seeing that he was getting older day by day, out of love for his daughter, Charles VI proposed to let his only daughter Princess Maria inherit his position as emperor.

However, once this proposal was proposed, it encountered unimaginable strong obstacles. Almost all the vassal states attached to the Holy Roman Empire expressed opposition to this proposal. Several major priests even stated that even if they were separated from the empire, they would not accept a queen's rule over them.

It is reasonable to encounter such obstacles. Although there has been a precedent for women to become the kingdom's grand duke in Europe, this is an unprecedented encounter in the Holy Roman Empire.

At the same time, due to many factors, the strength of the Habsburg family has been in a declining stage, and its binding force on other principalities continues to decline. In the final analysis, it is due to strength. If the Habsburg family is strong and whoever does not agree, leads troops to destroy it, there are no more problems.

As a result, since the promulgation of the state edict until today, twenty years have passed, and the number of signatures on the edict has not changed. After so many years, the vassal states have always gritted their teeth and disagreed.

In desperation, Charles VI even used the trick of pretending to be sick, which was really good at it.

The prince was lamenting the hardship Charles VI had put in for his daughter, and suddenly remembered something and immediately said, "By the way, your majesty. Your daughter Princess Maria, you have been engaged to Earl Eugen, and I don't know what you planned for this."

As soon as the prince finished speaking, Charles VI patted his head in surprise and said, "Oh yes, why did I forget this? No, I found a marriage for Maria in order to reject the engagement request of the Grand Duke of Lorraine. This matter needs to be re-planned."

Then Charles VI turned around and looked at Prince Eugen with a wry smile, and said depressedly: "You said why do these two children grow up so much? In the blink of an eye, they reach the age of getting married."

The prince knew that His Majesty the Emperor would react. He might be a kind father, but he was definitely not a wise king. He lacked the necessary control over many things, so the development of things often exceeded his expectations.

For example, the matter is actually beyond his control. After thinking about it, the prince still spoke to the emperor: "In fact, my Majesty. The guards of the palace told me that the Eugen had met your daughter Princess Maria recently."

"What?!" After hearing this news, Charles VI was completely shocked. For a young girl, meeting a man in private was too many meanings.

"You mean? My daughter ran out secretly and had a private meeting with Eugen?" This news made Charles VI feel like a bolt from the blue. He also knew that his daughter was a little naughty, but he didn't expect that she was so naughty.

The prince stammered for a while, and still corrected the error in the emperor's words: "It was not your daughter who ran out, but the Tulip Palace that Eugen took the initiative to go to. Moreover, the engagement man and woman had contacted privately, which cannot be called a private meeting."

Charles VI was completely speechless, and these details were not important at all. What was important was that his daughter had grown up and no longer belonged to him, and a young man like a robber was going to take her away.

This is a heartbreaking thing for any father. Even the emperor of the empire has no way to stop this matter.

When the prince saw Charles VI like this, he could not understand this feeling without children. What else the prince wanted to say, but Charles VI said, "Prince Eugen, you go back first. If there is anything, we will talk about it next time. Now I want to be quiet."

As he said that, Charles VI held his head with his hands and elbows on the table, falling into trouble.

The prince stopped saying anything, bowed to the emperor and walked back along the secret passage when he came.

Charles VI sat at the table, staring at the candles on the table. Under the candlelight, his eyes and expressions were bright and dark, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

After a long time, Emperor Charles VI suddenly clenched his fists, stood up and gritted his teeth in front of him, saying, "Hmph, boy, I can give you a chance, it depends on whether you can grasp it yourself. If you don't have the ability, then I won't blame me."

After saying this, Charles VI turned around and walked out. Halfway through his walk, his figure was hunched over and returned to his sickly state.
