Chapter Sixty-Eight: Summer War Celebration

"Happy Holidays and congratulations, Your Majesty!"

Peter held his son Paul in one hand, his wife Catherine in the other, and Catherine in the hand of his daughter Sophia, and the family of four stepped forward side by side to salute Queen Elizabeth I, the only empress in the square sitting on a golden throne.

"Happy holidays to you, too, Grand Duke"

Empress Elizabeth, who had changed her stern and harsh expression in the past, smiled and raised her right hand, behaving nobly and gracefully.

Peter quickly stepped forward and took the hand, leaned down and kissed the back of the hand.

The dinner, known as the Summer Victory Celebration of the Prussian War, was already a festival by specification, and Empress Elizabeth apparently wanted to calm domestic discontent, reduce divisions, and increase the loyalty of different aristocratic powers to the Tsar.

"Look at Paul, how good a child he looks like"

The Empress withdrew her arms, and then opened her arms to Catherine, who was holding a pair of children.

"Huh...?"

Catherine was stunned when she caught a glimpse of Peter squeezing his right eye at her, and tilting his head to the right, and immediately understood the Empress's intentions.

"Go, go to the Empress"

Catherine immediately made a perfectly elegant smile and pushed Paul in front of her.

Seeing this, the attendant beside the Empress quickly brought up a luxurious wooden chair of exquisite workmanship from an unknown place and placed it beside Empress Elizabeth.

"Under the wise command of His Majesty, the Russian Imperial Army has succeeded in annihilating the enemy, for which I sincerely express my admiration!"

When his son Paul was seated, Peter also stood sideways and said with a respectful bow.

"For this reason, I have specially prepared a small gift for Your Majesty, and I ask Your Majesty to smile"

"Oh? Is it? Then bring it in."

A hint of curiosity and surprise flashed in Queen Elizabeth's eyes, and when did this kid become so open-minded? But today is a good day for good fortune, so let's take a look.

Smack!

Peter clapped his palms gently.

Soon, a creature with tall crimson legs, a small and delicate head, a slender neck curved like a pillar, and a disproportionately exaggerated and massive body was led into the middle of the circular square.

"Huh? What is it? Is this a bird? ”

Queen Elizabeth asked curiously.

"Wow! What kind of monster is this? ”

"Oh my God... Curious, is this a vulture that has grown bigger? ”

"Oh, this... This thing looks like a big woolly swan! ”

Because the creature kept flapping its short wings, which were almost fan-shaped, and the sparse and thick body hair on its neck and head, the guests at the scene couldn't help but be amazed.

"Hehe, what am I, it's just an ostrich, cut!"

A French diplomat pouted secretly.

"A bunch of unseen hillbillies, hehe"

The French diplomat smiled at his companion.

"Your Majesty, this bird is called an ostrich, it is the largest bird found so far except for the 'elephant bird', mainly distributed on the African continent, it was given to me by a friend, I think it looks very fresh, I think Your Majesty you will also like it"

Peter stood beside the Empress and began to explain.

However, although this ostrich looks huge, like an elephant bird, it cannot fly in the sky and can only walk and run on land, but the ostrich can run at an astonishing speed, almost comparable to a cheetah. Moreover, I have heard that the eggs produced by ostriches are several times larger than ordinary eggs, duck eggs, and goose eggs, which are naturally very nourishing and good, and are also quite beneficial to His Majesty's body. It just so happens that this ostrich has already laid a few eggs, and if His Majesty wants to enjoy them, he can present them at any time."

"Oh? Is it? If you're saying that, it's never too late for me to enjoy it when the celebration is over, isn't it? ”

"No problem, Your Majesty, the ostrich eggs have been properly preserved, as long as Your Majesty responds, be on call"

Although Aunt Elizabeth did not accept the concern on the spot, Peter replied with a warm smile on his face.

"Okay, you have a heart"

Empress Elizabeth smiled honestly in return.

Whoosh –

Sneering sneering sneering -

Puff p

Colorful eggs flew straight into the sky like cannons, followed by three silver snakes of the fire tree, jumping into the sky in a spiral trajectory, and the golden flowers were like golden fountains, constantly splashing brilliant golden nectar, making the viewer fall into a colorful and dazzling dream world.

"Everyone, celebrate the victory!"

Empress Elizabeth stood up, glancing at the room, then raising her arms to the crowd.

"Woo-la!"

Seeing this, Razumovsky, who was on the sidelines, first shouted a slogan unique to the Russian nation.

Woo la-

Woo la-

Woo la-

In an instant, whether it was a noble duke or a palace guard, a rich lady or a humble maid, all shouted the same simple but powerful word, which pierced through the palace walls and the sky, making many foreign ministers and dignitaries present, and even the entire European continent tremble.
