De Luyis nodded and explained to Jerome Bonaparte eloquently: "Yes! Your Majesty! If the Empire were to obtain rental concessions for its own affiliated lands/buildings in the Suez Canal in Egypt, I think the Kingdom of Britain would probably acquiesce to transactions between the Empire and the Kingdom of the Netherlands.
Once the Kingdom of Britain is dealt with, the issue of the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg can be easily resolved!"
After listening to De Luyis's viewpoint, Jerome Bonaparte lightly nodded and then modestly hinted: "Minister Luyis, please do not forget! The agreements we made with the Kingdom of Britain regarding Egypt a few years ago!"
What Jerome Bonaparte referred to as agreements were the discussions between Valerovsky, whom he had commissioned to visit the Kingdom of Britain, and Palmerston, who was then still serving as the Foreign Minister of the Kingdom of Britain, on the actions against the Russian Empire.
