Chapter 58: Provocation from Moravia
Moravia, located in the eastern part of the Czech Republic, takes its name from the nearby Morava River, like the Yellow River in the East, which is a special place for people living in Moravia.
It is one of those large but sparsely populated regions, and the total population of the whole of Moravia is not even as large as that of a medium-sized city, and the fixed population of 30,000 is already the limit here.
The industry is not very developed, but there are some coal mines and oil, of which the reserves of coal mines are very considerable, but because of the problem of roads, it is difficult to improve the economy here.
Karl's railway only passed through the regional border, and the Moravian parliament needed to allocate funds to build a road to the border, and only then could Moravia be fully connected to the railway.
Clariki, the closest city to Moravia, is where Ernst gets off the train and goes to his territory.
A small suit, black sunglasses, and a civilized staff, although he is very young, with several strong guards behind him, it makes people understand at a glance that his identity is extraordinary.
The person in charge of the railway station stepped forward, and before he could ask Cosimo about his identity, the person in charge of the railway station who heard that Ernst's identity was obviously a little panicked, and the word royal family still has a lot of influence on the grassroots people.
Several beautiful carriages were parked outside the station, and Bert, who saw Ernst and Cosimo, hurried forward, and the young men brought with him also helped carry the things.
Blocking out the sunlight with his left hand, Ernst looked around and asked, "How long will you arrive in Moravia?" How does the situation compare there compared to here? ”
Accustomed to the bustling cities of Vienna, Rome and Florence, it is very impressive to see Ernst, a medium-sized city like Klalicki.
"Arrived in Moravia on the 4th of November, the road was not very good, and there was some delay. Situation in Moravia...... Your Excellency Earl, let's take a look! ”
Frost smiled lightly, he didn't expect it to be too prosperous, not to mention that his territory was much better than other places, at least he didn't have to worry about the threat of war.
Patting Bert, who was smiling wryly, Ernst sat in the carriage with the help of a young man, and Bert naturally got on the carriage with him, and when Cosimo was relieved of his personal servant, he chose to be with Talo Balbo.
"Viscount Rossi of Clariki wants to invite you to his family banquet......"
"Viscount Rossi?"
Ernst knew that Bert was not a reckless man, and if it was not necessary, he would not say anything about Viscount Rossi's family banquet, even if Ernst did not know who this Viscount Rossi was.
"He is related to Her Royal Highness the Duchess of Sufi, speaking of which is your uncle, he is very influential in Clarikhi, and he is willing to help ......"
"Decline his invitation!"
Ernst's words surprised Bert and declined the invitation? This was very beneficial to Ernst's future position in Moravia, and the gifts were already prepared by Bert, who never expected Ernst to refuse.
Ernst understood what was in mind when he looked at Bert, and explained: "My mother never said that I could turn to an uncle when I came to Moravia, and I was sure that he had no good intentions. ”
The aristocracy is cunning, and those who are not cunning have gradually disappeared into the torrent of history, and Ernst never thought that there would be a pie in the sky. What's more, if the other party is genuinely invited, then he should appear at the station at this moment, instead of hiding at home and preparing for him to visit.
Who is Ernst? Not to mention his earl title, even the identity of the prince is something that Viscount Rossi can neglect? Ernst would not do such a thing if he didn't take the initiative to greet him, let alone ask Ernst to come to his door.
After Ernst's words, Bert also understood that he was still a little immature, and his face was very beautiful at this time, but his mood was not too good.
If, if Ernst had not thought of this, and had lost the honor of his family because of his own words, then he would have been a sinner who would have died in all his life, and for a moment Bert would even have suicidal thoughts.
Extreme? Not really, if you have received a traditional education in the medieval period since you were a child, which is also the honor of the master, that is, your own honor, I guess you will be the same.
For a nobleman, honor is more important than life, especially for a very chivalrous man like Bert, shouldn't he be damned if he made his master almost lose honor?
The answer was yes, of course, but fortunately Ernst saw that he was not going to dissuade him hastily, otherwise it was very likely that Ernst would lose a right-hand man.
"Everybody has a chance to be overlooked, I like to give people three chances, this is the first time, hopefully there won't be a second time, you know what I mean, Bert."
This is not suitable for soft persuasion at this time, because it will make Bert feel guilty, but like persuasion at this time, it is different, during the reprimand, Bert's thinking will be changed, from whether to commit suicide to whether he must not commit it again in the future, from self-regret to passive reprimand, and his emotions will be stabilized.
"Cosimo's valet is doing well, how are things going in the castle? If there is no problem, you will be the butler! ”
Ernst was reluctant to let him do anything else, especially now that Cosimo was very talented for the position of valet.
Bert naturally didn't have any opinions, he was still worried about Ernst's personal valet before he came, after all, the old butler of the castle had been expelled by him, and it was impossible for him to serve as Ernst's personal valet while serving as a butler.
However, Bert still felt a little pity for Cosimo, after all, in his eyes he was a very good young man, and maybe he would have a better future in the army than a valet.
"Why didn't you see Andrei?"
It was only then that Ernst remembered the loyal man, who would not have been missing if it had been in the past, but now there was no one to be seen.
"The head of the Moravian Army Regiment Jankulovsky held a meeting this morning, and Major Andrei was among them, so there was no time to ......"
Before Bert's words were finished, Ernst knew that this was a dismount from the commander of the Yankulovsky regiment, and that the time of his arrival was estimated that no nobleman in Moravia was not clear, and such a move ...... Hehe, since you want to play, then let's play!
