My Italy

Chapter 14 Meeting

The telegram sent by Domingo made Carlo furious. How can Tesla use tying methods to make others work willingly?

But a day later, he added a telegram to make Carlo less angry. Because of the misunderstanding, Tesla was almost forced to come. After explaining that he was willing to come, and Domingo's apology, the invitation became normal, and Tesla's anger was more or less relieved.

However, Domingo's actions this time made Carlo afraid to ask him to hire someone in the future. It seemed that he needed to find someone more experienced and stable to do these tasks.

Not to mention the characterized Domingo, Carlo now has a more important matter to deal with. Garibaldi's personal representative has arrived in Rome, and Carlo attaches great importance to it. He deliberately learned about Mr. Cosenz's experience from Baron Filmic.

This was a good friend of Garibaldi, who had fought with him in the Red Shirt Army before, and was his valued right-hand man. Otherwise, he would not have become the personal envoy of this national hero.

Carlo also attaches great importance to this. This can be regarded as his first official contact with the former red shirts represented by Garibaldi. It is related to his future layout, so he must not pay attention to it.

To this end, he also called Baron Filmic to his side to act as a facade for the time being.

One more thing, now his father's captain of the bodyguard has been taken over by him. Because he failed to protect his father before, Felici blamed himself very much. In Carlo's view, this was not entirely the fault of the former captain of the guard. If the assassin put his own life and death at risk, it would be really hard to guard against, and more importantly, the current situation is Carlo lacked a man like Feli Mickey.

Therefore, Carlo has an urgent need for the former captain of the guard. In addition, Baron Felicius, as his father's captain of the bodyguard, must be confirmed by his father in terms of loyalty and ability. Coupled with the guilt caused by his father's assassination, it is impossible to find a better candidate than him.

"Your Majesty, Mr. Cosentz is already here."

Baron Felicius walked into the room and told Carlo, who was busy with his head down, that someone had arrived.

Carlo raised his head and asked. "Where?"

"To avoid attention, I was placed in a back room, and Cosentz had no problem with that."

See this is professionalism. Carlo felt more and more that His Excellency the Baron was worthy of choosing the captain of the bodyguard for his father, and that he was able to arrange these small details in advance.

"Then let's go there."

Under the leadership of Felici Mitch, Carlo quietly came to the room where Cosentz was located through his cover. Although it is in the palace, who knows who in the palace will tell the truth. After all, he has no real power now, and he lacks prestige as a king.

Carlo also watched a lot of palace fighting dramas in his previous life, so it’s better to be careful.

As soon as Carlo entered the room, he saw the old man who had been standing next to Garibaldi before.

"Hello, Mr. Cosentz, thank you for visiting Rome in person."

As a king, Carlo did not have the burden of being a king at all. He said hello without hesitation as soon as he entered the door, which made Cosentz feel very different.

"Your Majesty, it is a pleasure to meet you."

Unlike Carlo, Cosenz was more reserved of that era and was very polite and courteous.

"Please take a seat, Mr. Cosentz. I can't continue the conversation if you stand. I don't think this meeting needs to be so formal."

Seeing Cosentz standing in front of him meticulously, Carlo quickly asked the old man to sit down. After his persuasion, Cosentz also sat down.

"Mr. Cosentz, I asked you to come to Rome this time. I believe you have heard a lot of rumors."

Carlo's straight-to-the-point words made Cosentz nod. It was only after he came to Rome that he understood the current situation. His Majesty had just been disgraced by Prime Minister Cairoli. Although this news was only circulated in the upper-class circles, Cosenz, as a personal representative, had his own news channels and knew about it.

It was only after he learned about this incident that he felt that Garibaldi's self-awareness was really accurate. It is indeed not as simple as the letter. His Majesty Carlo really has the possibility of taking advantage of them.

"I know a little bit, but I came here in a hurry and don't know the full story."

Facing Cosentz's answer, Carlo was no exception and saw him continue. "Do you need me to elaborate?"

Carlo's words surprised Cosentz. He would not be surprised if these words came from an old politician, but it would be surprising enough to hear them from a young man. At the same time, he overturned the premature decision he had just made, just like an old monster.

Carlo didn't know that Cosentz thought so highly of him in his heart, but he knew that he needed to make Cosentz feel his sincerity next.

"It seems that you don't want to hear it. Well, this meeting with you is also a little selfish on my part. Mainly because I want to see the Red Shirt Army back then. I admire the record of this army very much, and at the same time, I have great respect for their selfless I would like to express my high respect for you. I wonder if you can satisfy this small request of mine.”

Confronted with Carlo's words, Cosenz replied. "Logically, I should agree to your Majesty's request, but now there are no more red shirts, only law-abiding Italian citizens. And everyone has gone their separate ways in recent years, so it is extremely difficult to reunite them."

Faced with Carlo's request, Cosenz refused without hesitation. Because the Red Shirt Army was originally just a title and had never been officially recognized, it was impossible for Cosentz to summon these people just because Carlo wanted to see it. Even Garibaldi would not agree.

"That's really regrettable, but since it will disturb their peaceful life, I'd better forget it."

Carlo was also very easy to talk to, and Cosenz didn't mention it again after he refused. But although he didn't mention it anymore, he got stuck with Cosentz.

"I heard that Mr. Cosentz was originally from the Red Shirt Army, so can you tell me about your fighting situation at that time?"

"There is no problem with this. As long as His Majesty wants to know, I will tell you everything."

Faced with Carlo's new request, Cosenz did not refuse this time.

"Then where do I begin?"

"Let's start when you met Mr. Garibaldi."

"Okay, Your Majesty. I was still young at that time, only in my early thirties..."

Cosentz recounted his meeting with Garibaldi for several hours, from their first meeting to the subsequent battle. Carlo acted like a real teenager at this time, listening to his story quietly, and asking questions from time to time when there were some unknown points, but Cosentz really knew everything.

The two got along more and more harmoniously, and slowly Cosentz finally felt the side of Carlo as a teenager. But time passed quickly, and the voice of Felicity Mickey came from outside the door.

"Your Majesty, it's almost time."

At this time, Carlo stood up and continued to talk. "Thank you for your narration, which gave me a better understanding of that era. Is there another chance for us to meet next time?"

"No problem, as long as your Majesty is willing to listen to me, an old man, nagging."

"That's it."

Looking at Carlo leaving, Cosentz felt that His Majesty was very interesting.

Carlo walked to the door, suddenly turned around and said something. "Mr. Cosenz, I think you are not old at all. You should still be able to fight for Italy for more than ten years."

After saying that, Carlo opened the door and left.

Cosentz, who stayed in the room, looked at Carlo's leaving figure and whispered to himself. "Your Majesty is really interesting."

This was the end of this meeting that would affect Italy in the future.

Although no results were achieved this time, the attitudes of the two parties have been clearly revealed. At least neither hates the other, which is good news for both parties.
