William Pitt Junior deliberated, "We must continue to exert as much influence as possible on Vienna, and bring an end to the war between Prussia and Austria as swiftly as we can. You know, the longer they fight, the greater their losses, and France's ability to restrain them becomes weaker."
Lord Grenville looked toward the Foreign Minister, "Mr. Fox, do you have any suggestions?"
"Well... if Prussia could be persuaded to relinquish some of its interests in Silesia, I might give Vienna a try."
Fox had barely finished speaking when someone knocked on the door. It was his assistant.
The latter quietly stepped in, handed him a report, and whispered a few words in his ear.
Fox was instantly delighted, and said to Grenville, "Prime Minister, good news! Uh, it is truly good news."
