Pontchartland said: "Yes, the king is already waiting. Those who attend the meeting are close people and foreign minister Tussi. The Spanish Regent sent a minister, who proposed that as long as the Duke of Anjou arrives in Spain and swears to abide by Spanish laws, the Regent and the nobles will accept the Duke of Anjou as the King of Spain. But the ambassador also said that he cannot wait too long. If our Majesty refuses, the Spanish Regent will go to Vienna and hand over the same conditions to Grand Duke Charles.

The only demand of the Spanish nobles is that Spain will never be divided."

Prince Louis hurried in, and his father had already started talking to the courtiers, and had no intention of waiting for his arrival to start.

The prince's position in the French court was rather awkward, because Louis XIV did not like this son, thinking that he was lazy and ignorant and slow to react. Their only topic was hunting, which was their only common hobby.

When he was young, Prince Louis fell in love with his cousin, but in order to marry Spain, the king forced his cousin Mary Louis to marry Carlos II. Politically, the prince did not have much status, and the only thing he praised was his approachableness.

Most of the time he lived in Merton, with whom he lived was King Louis's illegitimate daughter, his half-sister, who both loved the prince deeply, and the three were considered a cabal, and their political opponents were the son of the prince, the Duke of Burgundy, known as the young prince, and his wife.

In the small living room, the king listened to all the ministers' statements before looking at his son and signaling him to express his views.

Louis, who had been the crown prince for nearly forty years, immediately expressed his attitude in a loud voice, that is, to support the acceptance of Spain's request and make his second son Philip, the Duke of Anjou, become the king of Spain. However, the crown prince was not out of selfishness.

He had two reasons. First, the Austrian emperor Leobed would definitely be close to completing the merger of Austria and Spain, and would not hesitate to fight for it. Second, if it refused, France would once again fall into a situation of siege on all sides, which means that the Sun King's career that has been struggling for most of his life in the past two hundred years has been burned.

Accepting Spanish requests and fighting wars will at least get support from Spain. If you do not accept the request, you will at least divide Spain, and you will be hated by Spain at that time.

After hearing what his son said, Louis XIV just nodded slightly and agreed. In fact, most of the ministers had this attitude, only Foreign Minister Tuxi opposed it, but he only opposed war. Tuxi clearly stated that the result of accepting the Spanish throne was to fall into a war-like war with Europe again. Such a war would be difficult to completely win unless it was fully supported by China.

And if we only unite with Spain to fight the enemy, France will be unable to engage in a war of such a scale.

"Dear Tussey, you have always respected me. Who gave you such courage and express your views so directly, and is contrary to my ministers of state?" Louis XIV looked at the Minister of Foreign Affairs and asked.

Tusi said humbly: "Dear Your Majesty, no one has directed me, but I think your obedient people do not want to fight another Great Alliance war."

Louis XIV nodded: "Do you think you can convince me?"

"No, I think war is inevitable," said Tusi.

Louis XIV smiled: "Since that's the case, why do you still have to face tit?"

Tusi said: "Even if war is inevitable, we must make all our efforts for peace, at least to make your obedient people believe that you have given all your sacrifices for their peace."

Louis XIV heard this and was silent for a while before saying, "Yes, Turkish, France can no longer engage in a large-scale war like it did ten years ago, unless my people support me more. You are right and do it right, so I hope you can come forward and carry out another round of diplomatic activities to prove my yearning for peace."

Tu Xi nodded. He knew that peace was dead and now he was just showing a gesture to the French people who were responsible for the cost of war.

"Then, let's go to the Apollo Hall now, I believe the ministers are already anxious. Dear son, go and bring your son, my Philip there." After Louis XIV ordered, he got up and changed his clothes.

An hour later, at the Hall of the Sun God Apollo, when Louis XIV arrived, all the people who discussed closed their mouths, which was the etiquette of Versailles. The king appeared in a dress and faced all the courtiers with a smile. He walked towards the throne cast in sterling silver on the crimson Persian carpet, and sat on the throne of two meters and six meters high. He looked around for a while and found that he had not seen Philip of Anjou, and asked, "Where is my Philip?"

"Go and find Duke Philip." The crown prince also realized that his son, who was standing beside him, had disappeared at this time, and immediately ordered the people around him.

At this time, in the small garden of the Apollo Hall, two attendants were squatting in front of the Duke of Anjou, who was urging: "Hurry up, hurry up."

The seventeen-year-old Duke was anxious because he was really eager to pee, and this gorgeous outfit was really difficult to take off. Fortunately, he had good endurance and released it outside his pants before it was sprayed out. The light yellow urine sprinkled directly on the lawn outside the Apollo Hall, adding a little more scent to the already slutty corner.

This is the current situation of the Versailles court in this era. After a few meters of driving, there are elegant sculptures and beautiful fountains. A dozen meters away is the gorgeous Apollo Hall and a group of nobles wrapped in gorgeous clothes and expensive perfumes. In every dark corner, there are shit and urine excreted by nobles everywhere.

In fact, according to the rules, when the nobles want convenience, they can call their servants to bring the toilet, but no one has the patience, so it is normal to find a place without anyone to solve it. Of course, except for King Louis XIV, it is not that he loves cleanliness, but that the king can "live" to the nobles. Of course, this is a fee.

Hearing his name sounded in the Apollo Hall, Philip raised his pants in a panic and ran into the Apollo Hall. Philip, who had been almost urinated by peeing, immediately became a graceful Duke of Anjou.

Louis XIV stood up on the throne, waved to Philip to come up, and then held his hand that had just touched his dick. A little embarrassment flashed across the Duke of Anjou's face, but it quickly disappeared.

It’s not because he didn’t wash his hands because he was convenient, but because the smell here was really bad. His grandfather hadn’t taken a bath for several years, but he liked to scrub with alcohol and sprayed all kinds of perfumes. The smell on his body was really weird, but everyone dared not show it, except Mrs. Mantenon, who would cover her nose in front of the king.

Louis XIV took the hand of his grandson and faced all the ministers, saying, "Everyone, this is the king of Spain. Because of his noble blood, King Carlos appointed him to inherit the throne in his will. This is the wish of all Spanish peoples, and humbly begging me to agree that it is the will of God, and I am willing to perform it."

After the fierce applause rang out and quieted, Louis XIV said to Philip: "Personal Philip, your first duty now is to learn to be an excellent Spanish king. But never forget that you are a Frenchman, so you must maintain the unity of the two countries. This is what makes the people of both countries happy, and it is the cornerstone of peace in the entire Europe and even the entire world."

"Abide by your teachings, your majesty." The Duke of Anjou bowed and bowed.

The French ministers retreated, and Louis XIV summoned the Marquis of Chast, the envoy from the Spanish Regent.

"Marquis, this is your king of Spain, dear Philip. I will entrust him to you." Louis XIV said with a smile.

Chast was startled at first. He never expected that Louis XIV would agree so happily. After a moment, Chast immediately reacted and gave Philip a great gift of allegiance, saying: "Dignity, from today onwards, you will receive all the loyalty of me and all the Spaniards. May you be blessed by God, and you, who have the blood of the great Sun King, lead Spain to prosperity and peace."

Philip gently patted Chast on the shoulder and expressed his acceptance of his allegiance. The Marquis of Chast bowed to Louis XIV, the King of the Sun, and said that even though he was extremely famous in later generations, people mistakenly thought it was Louis XIV's statement:

Pyrenees - no longer exists.

After announcing the acceptance of the Spanish throne, Louis XIV sent the Minister of Foreign Affairs to notify the ambassadors of various countries to France, and on this premise, discuss the realization of European peace. It is recommended to hold a new round of consultations in Paris, but this round of consultations is not about the inheritance of the Spanish throne, but about European peace.

But what Louis XIV didn't know was that the ambassadors in Europe were not in Paris at this time, and most of them went to Amsterdam, the Netherlands. The reason was very simple. After the death of Carlos II, all countries sent envoys to Amsterdam to discuss the problem, and these envoys needed the ambassadors to France to provide France's definite attitude.

When France sent people to Amsterdam, envoys from all countries said that they would never hold meetings in Paris. After compromise, the meeting was held in Lille, the border city between France and the Spanish Netherlands.

At this meeting, Li Junwei also sent Duan Yi as an emissary to attend, and in his report, Duan Yi directly called this meeting the underworld meeting.
