After returning from Prague Castle to the Bohemian Military Command, Jerome Bonaparte and Franz Joseph received an invitation from Mayor Laine of Prague to attend a ball.
"Your Majesties, this is a ball we specially arranged in advance to welcome your arrival! We hope you can grace us with your presence!" Laine said with extreme humility to Franz Joseph and Jerome Bonaparte, fearing that the two monarchs might not attend.
It is known that to prepare for this ball, Laine had already released news that the two emperors would attend, prompting a group of nobles residing in Bohemia to scramble for the privilege of attending. Through this ball, Laine had already garnered plenty of connections and money.
If he could persuade the two monarchs to attend, the future planning for Prague could be seen as imminent.
"Who will attend the ball?" Franz Joseph casually inquired.
