My Italy

Chapter 11 One wave comes after another

Such humiliation makes Carlo sleepless, but if he wants to take revenge, he should just go to bed, because the Prime Minister is currently beyond his control.

According to the words in the movie, the referees, organizers and co-organizers are all my people, so why bother with this? Just go home.

Obviously Carlo is not someone willing to accept such humiliation, and he is more patient than others. What should I be afraid of when I am young? If I don’t rely on these officials, I can still rely on the royal family.

Well, it's not about relying on members of the royal family. Currently, my uncle is unreliable and my mother doesn't understand politics at all. As for my younger brothers and sisters, let's just have fun.

To be more precise, he plans to build a research and development center by himself relying on the royal family's assets.

But before that, he had two people to convince, one was his mother, and the other was the regent's uncle who couldn't help him. His mother was easy to deal with. Carlo had already figured out her character. It was not difficult to get his mother to speak, but it was a bit difficult to get his uncle to agree. Although this uncle has fallen into gentleness, there is still a problem in getting his consent.

It should be noted here that although Carlo has become the king of Italy and automatically becomes the patriarch of the Savoy family, due to Carlo's young age, his mother Margherita and uncle Amedeo jointly oversee these family properties.

Therefore, without the consent of these two people, Carlo still cannot use any of the family funds, and only his own private money is at his own discretion. However, he didn't have much private money. After becoming king, Carlo only received an income of 200,000 lire per month. Adding in what he had received from his younger brother before, the total amount was less than 1 million.

So Carlo is currently shifting his focus to the plan to obtain the consent of his mother and uncle.

Of course, before that, Carlo had one more thing to do.

Carlo was writing a letter seriously on the table. He could swear that he had never been so serious, even to his girlfriend in his previous life. After writing the last line and signing his name, Carlo stretched and then put the letter Folded and placed in a letter bearing the crest of their Savoy family.

Yes, Carlo planned to invite Tesla again this time, and he paid enough attention to the last failure. Although I don’t know the specific reason why Tesla didn’t come last time, this time he did the best he could. The salary is adequate, according to the top standards, a monthly salary of 2,500 liras is enough, and enough respect is given.

In a word, Tesla must be kidnapped this time even if it means tying him up.

Since he plans to use all means, he naturally cannot leave this matter to someone he is not familiar with. I believe that Domingo will know what to do this time after the lessons he experienced last time.

Thinking of this, Carlo called Domingo over.

"Domingo, I want you to do something this time."

Seeing His Majesty looking at him extremely seriously, Domingo's heart skipped a beat. He had only seen him once before, and that time he messed up.

Although Domingo was mentally prepared, he still felt a little humiliated when Carlo told him about the mission. This was not because he thought Carlo was insulting him, but because he felt humiliated that he failed to get things done last time, forcing His Majesty to invite him again.

It was because of his failure in doing things that His Majesty Carlo had to lower his profile even more. So after getting this letter, he had already decided that if Mr. Tesla refused His Majesty's kindness again, he would not hesitate to do so. Let him know the consequences of His Majesty's good intentions being rejected.

Unable to notice the changes in his confidant's heart, Carlo sent him away and began to prepare to face getting the money from his mother and uncle.

"Turn your back to Hayate!"

Carlo was full of fighting spirit at this moment.

Mother was easy to handle, and Carlo made her agree the next day. The method is very simple, that is, show up inadvertently during the mother's salon party, and then behave as expected in front of her friends. At this time, while she is happy, whisper your request to her and give a reasonable explanation, and the matter will be solved. It’s done.

In a certain way, my mother is no different from other people. They all give rewards after satisfying the other person's psychological needs.

Now that the mother has solved the problem, the next step is to get the uncle to agree. But if you want him to agree, you have to think of other ways. Carlo already has some clues about this, but it will take some time.

Time passed quickly and it was time to meet my uncle again. Amedeo, Duke of Aosta, the regent, walked in with deep dark circles under his eyes and a yawn.

"Uncle, your mental state has been very bad recently."

"This is because my sleep quality has been very poor recently, and after coming to Rome, I feel uncomfortable..."

Carlo looked at his uncle who was serious and talking nonsense, and just looked at him quietly.

"Uh~"

Amedeo, who was so overwhelmed by Carlo's gaze, stopped talking.

"Uncle, your reputation is known throughout Rome these days. This will not do you any good."

Carlo talked about his uncle with great sincerity. As the one who was being scolded, Regent Amedeo felt that his nephew's every move was very much like his brother, which made him subconsciously ignore his nephew's age and couldn't help but treat him as an adult. .

Carlo, who felt that the initial effect was achieved, continued. "What's wrong, my uncle. When discussing government affairs, you don't play your role at all. You just watch the ministers decide what to do on their own. It shouldn't be like this. You should play a core role in government affairs, and Instead of watching them solve their own problems, if they develop such a habit, then where will our Savoy family be in the kingdom?"

Perhaps Carlo's tone and movements were very similar to his deceased brother, which made Amedio feel a little nervous, and there was a hint of begging for mercy in his words.

"I don't know why. Ever since I came back from Spain, I have had a headache with government affairs, even when I was in Turin."

Seeing Carlo's confused eyes, his uncle became a little anxious. "What I said is true. I didn't dare to tell anyone else before."

Hearing his uncle's words made Carlo feel like he had been cheated. I thought it was just because of being carefree, but I didn't expect there to be such a reason.

However, in order to confirm the situation, Carlo continued to ask. "What would that feel like?"

"I felt nervous, sweaty, a little overwhelmed, etc., so when I was in Turin, I stopped touching various things."

After hearing his uncle's explanation, Carlo finally confirmed that it seemed to be the shadow left by being a puppet king in Spain.

Is there a cure for this?

There is still a way. There are such psychiatrists in Europe now, but they are not mainstream now. It doesn't matter if the uncle is an ordinary person or a small nobleman, he will be cured. But now that he is the regent, there is nothing he can do. What would the Savoy family do if people knew that the regent had a mental illness?

As for private treatment, it is not possible. His identity is too conspicuous, and no one can guarantee that there will be no mistakes.

This gave Carlo an unspeakable feeling. Originally, he just wanted to get his uncle to agree to withdraw some of the family funds. For this reason, he specially found the former captain of the bodyguard, Baron Filmicchi, and carefully imitated his father's tone of voice and posture. And today he chose to stand in the shadows just for this scene. Unexpectedly, I worked too hard and let my uncle reveal the secret himself.

Although Carlo doesn't know what to do now, he wants to satisfy his plan first.

"Then you did the right thing. You would rather let others think you are a romantic than let others know you are incapable of handling government affairs."

I don't know why, but after his nephew said this, Amedeo felt a lot more at ease.

"Uncle, there is something that needs your approval now. I need to use family funds and I need your approval."

"No problem, I will agree."

"Very good, then you should continue to live a successful life like this."
