Soon, the carriage slowly stopped in front of the City Palace Square.
Count Montijo glanced at the young "assistant" sitting opposite him and whispered, "Your Highness, we have arrived."
Charles put away the "script" handed to him by his brother and nodded steadily, "Rest assured, I'm already prepared."
Then, the two got off the carriage one after the other and strode with heads held high towards the Prussian officials standing not far away under the watchful eyes of the tense Prussian Royal Guard.
An hour later.
In the Hall of Mirrors of the City Palace, Baron Stein, the Prussian Prime Minister, pressed his hands heavily on the table and gritted his teeth:
"We are far from defeated!
"Even if Berlin is lost, His Majesty the King will still command the army to fight France from Konigsberg. The war will continue!
"With the huge manpower advantage of the Allied Forces, we will gradually reclaim lost territory and secure ultimate victory!"
