With a sly smile like an old fox on his face, Charles VI looked at Francis and said in a certain seductive tone: "How about it, would you like to be closer to the royal family?" ”

The fool was unwilling, Francis called out in his heart, and then said busily: "Yes, yes, everything is up to Your Majesty." ”

"Hahaha, that's good." Charles VI first laughed and said, then his brows suddenly furrowed, and he sighed a little depressed and said: "Alas, I think that as the emperor of the empire, I can easily get many things as long as I want, but there is one thing that I have never been able to have, which has always been a regret in my heart." ”

As soon as this sentence came out, the atmosphere in the hall suddenly became weird, and many people didn't understand what Charles VI meant by this sentence.

Francis was also a little confused when he heard it, he looked at Charles VI suspiciously, and thought to himself, could it be that Charles VI wanted him to find something so that he could marry the princess after he found it?

Although there are many books that have such a scene, if it really happens, Francis still finds it a little ridiculous.

However, he is not unacceptable, anyway, Princess Maria is determined to get it, although what the emperor wants must not be easy to obtain, but he has enough self-confidence.

After saying this, Charles VI's face became relaxed again, and then he continued with a smile: "Haha, in fact, I have always wanted a son, but unfortunately God did not hear my prayers, so I want you to be my godson now, I don't know what you think." ”

"Yes, Your Majesty, no problem." Francis was still smug in his head, thinking that he could get anything Charles VI wanted, so he agreed without hesitation.

But as soon as the words came out, he was immediately stunned, the smile on his face was completely frozen, and he looked at Charles VI in surprise and said, "Huh? Your Majesty, you just said, what do you want? ”

Charles VI would not give him a chance to regret it, so he immediately stood up and walked to Francis's side, took his arm and laughed and said, "Hahaha, great, it's great that you are willing to be my godson." ”

As he spoke, he hugged Francis intimately, then turned his head to look at the Duke of Lorraine, and asked, "How is it, Duke of Lorraine, do you agree to let your son be my godson?" ”

The expression on the Duke of Lorraine's face also froze, he could not have imagined that Charles VI would actually use this trick, the incident happened suddenly, and even he did not know how to answer.

But now, Charles VI has put the problem in front of him, Charles VI is also the emperor no matter what, how dare the Duke of Lorraine disobey him, so he had to reluctantly nod and say: "This, if Your Majesty is willing, of course it is no problem." ”

"Haha, great, I've long thought Francis is a great boy, and it's really the best fit for him to be my godson." As he spoke, Charles VI also patted Francis on the arm.

Eugen, who was standing below, almost couldn't hold back his laughter, and he kept shouting in his heart: "Hahaha, Charles VI, Charles VI, but you really have you, all the problems are solved at once, no matter how good his Francis abacus is, now it is all in vain." ”

The Duke of Ji'an, who was next to Charles VI, was also quite admired in his heart, this plan, Charles VI did not tell him in advance, he only knew that the current relationship between the Duke of Lorraine and the royal family was very delicate, and it could be said that it all pointed to the bond of Princess Maria.

The Duke of Gian already knew that Charles VI was going to marry Princess Maria to Eugen, so there would inevitably be a rift in the relationship between the Duke of Lorraine and the royal family, and it was really hard to say what would happen at that time.

But now, Charles VI has easily defused the crisis with a little trick, and today he has made Francis his godson, and once Francis agrees, all the nobles of the entire empire will know the news.

In the future, even if the Duke of Lorraine and the royal family are at odds, it is impossible to do anything like sending troops to attack, otherwise, even if Francis kills his father, such a person will inevitably be scolded by all the nobles of the whole empire, Francis's reputation will be completely ruined, the Holy See will condemn him, and even ordinary civilians will look down on him.

But then Duke Ji'an thought with a little sadness, how could the status of his daughter Margaret not be like this?

Maria's marriage to Eugen hurt not only Francis, but also Duke Gian's own daughter.

Francis looked at Charles VI blankly, he wanted to refuse directly, but after thinking about it, he still couldn't say it, so he could only smile and nod.

In this case, there is no room for him not to agree.

"Hahaha, great, I'm so happy today, I didn't expect that I not only found a son-in-law for myself, but also accepted a godson, God really favored me."

Charles VI laughed three times, then returned to his seat, and raised his hand to signal Marcus to read the reward.

Francis paused for a moment, there are too many things that he expected today, and Charles VI's words just now surprised him even more, what does it mean to find a son-in-law and find a godson, the meaning of this sentence is obviously a little strange.

The Duke of Lorraine on the side had already thought of something, and his face suddenly changed greatly, and then he stared at Eugen who was standing behind, his eyes narrowed slightly, which contained a cold gaze like a poisonous snake.

Sure enough, when Francis stepped aside, Marcus stepped forward and continued to read the third edict of reward.

"Count Eugen led his troops to support Vienna in time, defused the crisis in Vienna, helped defeat the combined Saxon and Prussian armies, and stopped the disease at the southern end of the empire, he not only saved the royal family, but also the entire empire, and his feats were ......extraordinary."

Saying this, Marcus suddenly gasped, and there was a momentary pause in his words.

The other ministers in the palace were also shocked when they heard Marcus's statement, for the evaluation of the first two generals, the unity was meritorious, but when it came to Eugen, it became extraordinary, although this seems insignificant, but the meaning represented in it is too much......

Marcus was too surprised to see the content of the reward, so he lost his temper a little, and after a while, he calmed down, and he didn't dare to let the entire hall wait for him, so he hurriedly continued.
