Seeing Charles VI's eyes, he immediately understood that he had said the wrong thing, cold sweat slowly flowed down his forehead, and his legs trembled involuntarily.

Marcus himself had no self-esteem in front of the emperor, so he knelt directly on the ground and said tremblingly: "No, no, no, Your Majesty, the minister doesn't mean that, the minister means, although the Marquis Eugen has not done a good job, but after all, he has worked hard, and this matter is probably not his idea, but his subordinates are bewitching him, so there is absolutely no need to punish the Marquis Eugen, just give him some warnings and let him manage his subordinates." ”

Marcus said as he secretly observed Charles VI's face, and he thought that Charles VI's anger was because he valued Eugen and did not want to hear the words to punish Eugen.

But this time, he guessed wrong, and it was a big mistake, because the direction was wrong, so no matter how he spoke, what he said still made Charles VI very angry.

"You look up." Charles VI said in a cold voice, Marcus didn't dare to disobey, so he had to tremble and raise his head, and when he looked up, he saw a pair of eyes showing coldness, and his body suddenly trembled even more.

"Your Majesty...... Expiation. Marcus shuddered and begged for mercy, he still didn't know what he was wrong, but he felt that it was always right to beg for mercy quickly.

"You say ......" Charles VI looked at Marcus and asked in a heavy voice, "Is it wrong to let women serve as soldiers and let women do men's work?" ”

To Marcus's surprise, Charles VI did not care about Eugen almost at all, did not even mention Eugen's name, but asked such a question.

The moment he heard this question, Marcus's mind spun and he immediately came to his senses.

He wasn't a stupid man, and according to Charles VI's question, he immediately thought of what Charles VI really cared about.

In fact, for this issue, Charles VI's focus is not on Eugen at all, and he doesn't care whether women can be soldiers, Charles VI, as His Majesty the Emperor of the Empire, what he really cares about is actually on Princess Maria.

As we all know, Princess Maria is now the heir to the throne, and all the major families in the country have signed the state edict, and with this signature, whether they will oppose it in the future, Princess Maria is already absolutely orthodox and deserves to be the Holy Roman Emperor.

But objectively speaking, this is actually just a superficial thing, and other nobles may be able to maintain respect for Princess Maria on the surface, but what they are like in private, no one can say.

And this time, this decree of Eugen-lebor City can be said to have indirectly tested the thoughts of most people in the country, and there is no doubt that from the current situation, since these nobles in the country will oppose women as soldiers, then opposing women as emperors must be the most true thoughts in their hearts.

Nine times out of ten, the reason why he agreed to sign the state edict was because of the Habsburg's strong threat of force, or because of the consideration of interests, and these two are the most unstable factors in themselves.

All this makes Princess Maria's throne very unstable, like a tower built on sand, and I am afraid that if something happens, it will completely collapse.

As a king, Charles VI certainly understands how important public opinion is, and if everyone does not think that Princess Maria can be the empress, then even if the crown is forcibly pressed on Princess Maria's head, the final result will not be very good.

Marcus's eyes trembled when he realized this, and now he realized how wrong he was, but fortunately, he still had room to redeem himself.

After thinking about it, Marcus hurriedly spoke: "Back to Your Majesty, whether it is good to let women serve as soldiers or not, the minister is not sure, but hasn't Marquis Eugen already implemented this decree at this moment, then we just need to wait for the news from Lybor City to see if the final result they come up with is good, can't we judge." ”

Marcus said something trembling, and kicked the ball of this problem to Eugen, anyway, success or failure depends on the final result on Eugen's side, and the relationship with him Marcus is not too big. ’

Hearing Marcus's words, the coldness in Charles VI's eyes dissipated, and he put his hand on his cheek, and fell into deep thought again.

After a while, he waved his hand impatiently and said, "Okay, you go down first, I want to be alone for a while, and I'll talk about it later." ”

After the fright just now, Marcus had long forgotten what he wanted to say, and when he saw Charles VI letting him go, he naturally retreated in a panic, not daring to stay for a moment.

Behind the desk, Charles VI's brows furrowed deeply, originally in his opinion, after settling the Vetina family and the Hohenzollern family, Maria's throne was already very secure, but now it seemed that there were still far more things to worry about than he thought.

"Well, it's better to get a helper." Charles VI muttered, and then naturally thought of Eugen, since this incident was caused by Eugen, Charles VI can also feel that at least looking at Eugen's meaning, he must be very supportive of this matter, otherwise he would not have issued such a decree.

Thinking of this, Charles VI showed a knowing smile on his face, and he secretly thought in his heart: "My son-in-law is not bad, with Eugen by Maria's side to assist, he can rest assured in various things in the future." ”

This matter also reached the ears of Princess Maria, who already had a strong personality, especially in terms of women's independence and freedom, after all, she burned down half of the palace in order to resist the marriage contract made without her consent.

Although the result was still the same, she resisted after all, and she was also successful, and she was very happy to hear the news from Eugen-lebor at this moment.

Allowing women to serve as soldiers reflects Eugen's respect for women, and it can also be seen from this that Eugen has completely different ideas from others.

These characteristics fascinated Princess Maria, and now Princess Maria only feels that she can become Eugen's wife, and she is simply the happiest woman in the world.

Thinking like this, Maria fell asleep sweetly, and a smile gradually appeared on the corner of her mouth, obviously having a good dream that made people happy, and laughed in the dream.
