Chapter 314: The Character of the Crown Princes
"Daddy?"
Just when Charlie was a little sullen when he learned that Ernst might not send him to school, there was a noise outside the bedroom door, which made Charlie, who was already in a bad mood, a little angry, but when he opened the door and saw the servants running in a hurry, he seemed to think of something.
It doesn't take too long to get from Warsaw to Prague, especially if you're on a passenger plane, but because you're in a hurry, you're not travelling as many people as you used to, and a passenger plane can't accommodate as many passengers.
Maria, who was dressed in casual clothes, was obviously very happy to see Ernst coming, and Charlie naturally didn't need to say much, even if he was very much hiding his excitement, but a child who was only a few years old could know what it meant to cover up? The excitement in my heart is clear.
It was only after seeing this scene that Ernst really paid attention to his concern for his sons and daughters in other aspects, he was a king and an archduke, and it was not wrong for him to care about the ability and morality of his sons, but he ignored the influence of father's love in this regard, but fortunately it was not too late now.
"Charlie, school is a very important place for you, I hope you can cherish your time in school, and you will understand what I mean in the future."
There was no intimate action, Ernst just squatted down and said such a thing to him very seriously, but this was enough, even if Charlie was ignorant about the meaning of this sentence, but he could understand Ernst's concern for him, which was what Charlie valued, of course, he didn't know what it was, he just felt that he was very happy about it.
Look back at Mary. Ernst was very skeptical and worried about her education all along. is worried that she will not be able to raise a qualified crown prince. But now it seems that Maria is doing very well, at least there are no major mistakes, Charlie's rebellious period has not yet arrived, but at least everything is satisfactory for Charlie at this time. Not naughty, not arrogant, not stable, but roughly like a crown prince.
There was nothing more comforting to Maria than Ernst's affirmative glance, she wasn't Annie, she wasn't Jessica, there were so many eyes staring at her. And she didn't want to leave her children to be taught by others, and now that Charlie was about to go to school, it would undoubtedly make her a little easier.
The environment has a great influence on a person, especially the people around them. For example, Charlie, Maria's personality has greatly influenced Charlie, steady, decisive, slightly domineering, although only a general personality can be seen, but it is enough to extrapolate the future, if there is no big change and environmental impact.
In contrast, Heinrich's personality is very biased towards Jessica, kind and likes to listen to other people's opinions. Is it a bad thing to listen to other people's opinions? At least in Ernst's eyes, a king does not have some ideas and decisiveness of his own. Then he is not a qualified king, because he can easily be misled by his own ministers. This is especially true in countries such as the Kingdom of East Prussia-Poland-Lithuania, where competition is fierce.
Burkett. Franz...... This is too small to see anything, but he has always been by Ernst's side, especially since Ernst has arranged for him a few servants from the steppe, the future Burkett. What Franz's personality would have been, Ernst was able to guess a little.
Crown Prince Lorenz of Hungary. Franz, this is a lazy man, very smart but very tired person, he is not very interested in imperial power, what he likes most is to enjoy life, since he was a child, his talent in this area has been quite outstanding, and he will be very unaccustomed to the poor living environment. Birthday, Lorenz. What Franz longed for most was perhaps those noble and luxurious things, as long as the most expensive ones were not best used in Lorenz. Franz fits perfectly.
Compared with the four Habsburg boys, the two daughters also have very different personalities, Rosa is an honest character, which is very similar to her brother Heinrich, but it seems that there is also an Ernst factor in the genes, and sometimes Rosa erupts into a very naughty Burkter. Franz was a little afraid, and Charlie was equally afraid.
Johanna is an absolute delicate woman, a big sister, and a bold girl, just like a boy, for which Flender has a headache and embarrassment, but it seems that the Sophie Lord appreciates his daughter's this, and Flender wants to correct it.
In fact, he also likes his niece Ernst very much, and that kind of personality is a bit big, and he is a very suitable object to be friends, of course, this friend naturally cannot include Ernst, but Ernst still likes to chat with Johanna, because there are some things that others will never say to Ernst.
Charlie almost spent the best day of his life, because Ernst spent the whole afternoon with him, the two talked about some interesting things in life, of course, most of the time Charlie said that Ernst as a listening party, for his son to give some good solutions to some difficulties, as he grew older, Ernst also began to go in the direction of "omnipotent".
Such a satisfying stage will not last long, and perhaps when Charlie is older, the "omnipotent" Czech Grand Duke in his eyes will be a very annoying "antique", which is a stage that almost every father must go through, and he will have to bear it gloomily.
"I love that movie about the American West, and the cowboy life is really cool!"
"If you want, you can go to the United States to study in the future."
"This ...... OK? ”
Charlie is not an ignorant child, he knows his identity very well, the crown princes of the Czech Republic and the Russian Empire went to the United States to study, I believe it will be a very ironic thing, once the media has deliberately guided, then ......
"Of course you can, but only if we make the United States subservient!"
"Bow down?"
"An oriental idiom, you should learn some oriental culture, because the future will be very important."
"I like the culture of the East, and I have learned, but it is difficult to learn, and I don't understand a lot of things."
Whether it is the Czech Duchy or the Russian Empire, there are very large Chinese people in the territory, so as the king of these two countries, it is necessary for Charles to understand the culture of the East, which has a great effect on his rule, and if necessary, Ernst even thinks that it will be beneficial for Charles to have a Chinese wife in the future.
Helping Charlie solve some "difficult questions" about Eastern culture, Ernst left Charlie's bedroom after a long conversation, and this night was perhaps the most comfortable night Charlie slept on.
"Tired or not?"
When she returned to her bedroom, Maria had not yet slept, and when she saw Ernst coming back, she greeted Ernst very happily and helped Ernst to tidy up his clothes and velvet quilt. Shaking her head in reply, Maria Ernst, who lay on the bed with a hint of happiness on her face, still thought about today's events in her mind.
Maybe I really don't care much about them, here they don't just refer to Charlie, but also Maria and Jessica, a wife and a mistress who has been by their side for a long time, they also give a lot, but they only get material things, compared to Anne is much happier.
"I'm sorry......"
The gentle words made Maria, who had closed her eyes, tremble slightly, and the person was lying in Ernst's arms, how could Maria's movements be concealed by Ernst? But he didn't say anything, just tightened his hand around her waist, and then closed his eyes as well......
Early the next morning, Ernst got up and walked on the lawn, and Ernst was not the only "idler" on the lawn, but the servant who had come out early in the morning to walk his horse was also there, but he saw that Ernst was very embarrassed and nervous, and he did not dare to make a move when he wanted to leave.
The servant's attitude made Ernst a little strange, but looking at the Ernst who was holding him, he suddenly realized something, and pretended to ignore Ernst and chose to leave directly.
Although the servant's behavior was somewhat contrary to the rules of the palace, a horse lover was forgiven, even if his behavior might not have been a good thing for the foal.
The grass on the lawn is undoubtedly very popular with the foals, so the servants of the horses do not hesitate to get up early to prepare for the foals to "satisfy their hunger" while the others are still asleep.
Ernst didn't want to encourage anything, so he could only leave as if he couldn't see it, otherwise whatever he said would be regarded as a reprimand or encouragement as soon as he spoke, and the matter should be left to its own devices! Being caught is nothing more than a reprimand, and if the butler misunderstands what he means, then the servant is really unlucky.
When Maria and Charlie were up at the table, Charles was a little nervous when Ernst mentioned the foal, and Maria explained: "Charlie was obsessed with riding horses some time ago, so I arranged for someone to buy a few docile mares from Arabia and bring them back, and you may have seen one of them in the morning." ”
Ernst suddenly said, he also said, when he left, the palace had no more horses, but how could a little mare suddenly appear, originally thought to be brought by a servant from a nearby farm, but did not expect to come from Charlie.
"Horseback riding is also a gentleman's sport, and it's good that Charlie can like it, just don't be too obsessed with it......"
Before the words were finished, Ernst couldn't help but want to shake his head, where is there still obsession with Charlie's appearance now, obviously tired of it, and Ernst can only express helplessness for his son's patience. (To be continued.) )
