Chapter 81: Take office immediately (for collection)
"Your Highness, helping you is helping the German Empire Navy and the German Empire. I have always believed in this. I believe that you will become an outstanding monarch and lead the German Empire to win future wars." Tyr Marshal Earl Pitts is very confident in his vision.
"Your Excellency, Marshal, I will do my best to lead the German Empire to victory in future wars." Qin Tian said solemnly. Now that he has become the acting crown prince of Germany, he has no reason to preserve his power. His fate has been tied with Germany. If Germany loses the war, he will be worthless, and even lose his life. Therefore, for himself and for the German Empire, he must do his best in future wars.
Marshal Count Tirpitz nodded: "Your Highness, Your Majesty still wants to see you at such a late hour, has he decided to appoint you as the Crown Prince of the Empire?"
Qin Tian smiled helplessly, and then said: "Your Majesty has decided to appoint me as acting Crown Prince!"
"Acting Crown Prince?" Marshal Earl Tirpitz was also taken aback. He didn\'t expect William II to make such a decision. Since it was decided to make Qin Tian the crown prince, why did he add a code word in front? Wouldn\'t that cause Qin Tian\'s dissatisfaction?
"Yes, Acting Crown Prince. It can be said that my position as Crown Prince is only temporary. If Crown Prince William wakes up one day and I have not yet sat on the throne, the position of Crown Prince will be returned to Crown Prince William." Qin Tian looked helpless.
"What? How did this happen? How could Your Majesty issue such absurd orders? Why is there such a thing as returning the crown prince? Besides, you are more suitable to lead this empire than Crown Prince William. No, I have to ask Your Majesty, he Why did you make such a decision?" Marshal Earl Tirpitz looked resentful.
"Your Excellency Marshal, thank you for your support. However, since His Majesty has already made such a decision, with his character, it is undoubtedly unchangeable. If you insist on bringing it up, it will only have the opposite effect. Yes." Qin Tian stopped Count Tirpitz and Marshal.
Marshal Earl Tirpitz nodded, of course he knew the character of William II very well: "Your Highness, this is too unfair to you!"
"Fair? There is no so-called fairness or unfairness in this world. The only thing I can do is to make some achievements in the position of crown prince, so as to gain everyone\'s and His Majesty\'s approval." Qin Tian said.
"Your Highness, it would be best if you can think this way. No matter what, the navy will stand by your side and will always support you." Marshal Earl Tirpitz said happily. He was also worried that Qin Tian would be dissatisfied with this and would do something wrong because of it.
"Thank you, Marshal! I guarantee that the Imperial German Navy will become the most powerful navy in the world. In the future, it will definitely defeat the Germans." Qin Tian said solemnly. After becoming the crown prince, he has greater power to promote new equipment in the navy. Submarines and aircraft carriers, these will become the focus of his promotion in the next stage. In this way, after the outbreak of the war, the German Navy will not only have a powerful and advanced surface fleet, but also have a first-class underwater submarine force and aviation force. This will give the German Navy a greater chance of winning in future wars.
"Your Highness, I told you that you will definitely be able to do it." Marshal Earl Tirpitz nodded, he didn\'t think Qin Tian was talking nonsense. Qin Tian has been creating miracles all along. He believed that Qin Tian would be able to keep his word this time.
Marshal Count Tirpitz left soon, but Qin Tian didn\'t go to bed for a long time. Although, William II just appointed him as the current crown prince, the word "generation" will cause him great constraints. But Qin Tian was still very excited. He jumped from an ordinary prince to the acting crown prince with the right to inherit the throne. Once Wilhelm II died, he could immediately succeed to the throne and become Emperor of Germany. As for Crown Prince William, who has become a vegetative state, it is not so easy to wake up. After all, the awakening of a vegetative person can be called a medical miracle.
Became the acting crown prince, which meant that the burden on Qin Tian\'s shoulders was even heavier. The fate of him and the German Empire has been tightly bound together. Whether it is for himself or for the German Empire, he needs to do his best so that he can win in future wars. Otherwise, not only Germany would have no future, but he himself would have no future.
The next day, that is, December 27, Kaiser Wilhelm II issued an edict, in view of the serious injury of Crown Prince William, who was unable to perform the duties of Crown Prince, and appointed Qin Tian as the acting Crown Prince of the German Empire.
Although, it is only acting crown prince. But in the upper class of Germany, it still caused an uproar. Those lower class people don\'t care much about it. What they care about is how to fill their stomachs. As for who will be the crown prince, it has nothing to do with them. Even, there are quite a few low-level people who support Qin Tian to become the crown prince. Over the years, Deutsche Welfare Lottery has been committed to social welfare and improving people\'s livelihood, which has benefited many people. In this regard, they are naturally willing to support Qin Tian.
In the upper class, there are many people who think that Qin Tian is suitable to become the crown prince of the empire. After all, Qin Tian\'s outstanding talent cannot be questioned. Another group of people are opposed. They cling to the law of succession to the throne and believe that the appointment of William II is illegal. It\'s just that William II strongly promoted this order, and those people\'s objections were ignored.
Inside the royal family, opposition voices have always existed. The happiest jumping around were undoubtedly Qin Tian\'s other three older brothers. In particular, Prince Ethel Friedrich, who was the second prince, strongly opposed Qin Tian being crown prince. After Crown Prince William\'s accident, he was eagerly waiting for his successor to become Crown Prince. But he didn\'t expect that he would be cut off by Qin Tian, which naturally made him unacceptable.
It\'s just that these princes had to be honest after being severely reprimanded by William II. And Qin Tian officially became the Crown Prince of the German Empire.
