Richard Metternich's cautious remarks left Jerome Bonaparte with regret, but also a certain admiration.
Although Richard Metternich was not as smooth as his father, he at least possessed some diplomatic qualities.
Given time, he could certainly become a competent diplomat.
Of course, Richard Metternich's future achievements would be limited to competence; the traits he exhibited could not support him in becoming an excellent diplomat.
"What do you think, Rothschild Envoy?" Jerome Bonaparte turned his gaze to the Rothschild Envoy.
"Your Majesty, I share the same view as Secretary Richard Metternich!" The Rothschild Envoy emphasized to Jerome Bonaparte, saying, "Whether the Austrian Empire is willing to become the protector of the Danube Duchy does not depend on us. It depends on the Vienna Government. If you need us to convey a message to Vienna on your behalf, we are happy to serve!"
"That's exactly my intention!" Jerome Bonaparte nodded in response to the Rothschild Envoy.
