"Madame, Madame......"

A rapid cry woke Catherine up.

She turned her head with difficulty, and saw her maid Rena screaming anxiously beside her.

Catherine opened her mouth with difficulty, making a weakly ho-ho sound, and her chapped lips made this simple movement very difficult.

"Thank God, ma'am, you're finally awake!" Rena breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly brought water, brought it to Catherina's mouth, and fed her water.

Catherine only felt that her throat was about to burn when she swallowed water, she desperately drank a few sips of water, lubricated her throat, and immediately said to Rena: "Give me ...... quickly"

Rena hurriedly put the prepared ginseng slices in Catherina's mouth.

This is what Catherine had explained before.

She didn't think she needed it.

After all, her current status is the imperial concubine, no matter what, the dignity of the empire must be maintained, right?

I didn't expect it!

Elizabeth, that old woman, really just took the child away!

Then he ignored her, didn't even remove her from the delivery room, and just lay on the cold delivery bed.

Fortunately, Catherine had prepared for it before, and she didn't think she would need it.

Catherine did not have the strength to chew ginseng.

But just by holding the ginseng on the tip of her tongue, she felt that there was a magical power that was transmitted to her body through the ginseng.

She could clearly feel the improvement of her body.

After a few moments, she could even sit up on her own.

Rena, the maid who watched this scene, was stunned and knelt directly on the ground.

It's shocking.

Ekaterina straightened her hair and clothes and asked, "Rena, how long have I been in a coma?" ”

Rena said, "It's been four hours since the Empress took the little duke away!" ”

"Four hours?" Catherine asked, "Why are you here?" ”

Rena said with an aggrieved face: "There are strict guards outside, and I sneaked in when I met someone from the Ablosilov family!" ”

It has been ten months since Fang Hao left, and during this time, Catherine was not idle, she obeyed Fang Hao's instructions, took precautions, won people's hearts, and also attracted some people who were willing to listen to her.

The Ablosilov family is one of them, by the way, this family is the family that lost to Fang Hao before and was enslaved for life.

Ekaterina said: "We will leave now!" ”

The two had just left.

A detachment of city guards came to look for Catherine on the orders of Grand Duke Peter, but they were pounced.

After that, between Catherine and Grand Duke Peter, the face was officially torn.

Peter even openly said to people, "I don't know how Catherine got pregnant, and I don't know whose son it is!" ”

This is not even the appearance of the relationship.

However, Empress Elizabeth is still alive, and Elizabeth likes this child very much, and named this child Paul, looking at her appearance, she hopes to directly train Paul to be the emperor.

It's no wonder, after all, Peter and Catherine both came from the will of Germany, especially Peter, who had no sense of belonging to Oro at all.

So Elizabeth wanted to raise Paul directly.

But God didn't fulfill people's wishes, and Elizabeth's body suddenly deteriorated.

Soon died.

Peter ascended the throne as emperor and was known as Peter III.

At this time, the "Seven Years' War" was going on on the European continent, which affected almost all of Europe.

In this war, Tsarist Russia was fighting Prussia together with France, Austria, Sweden, Saxony and other countries.

Frevice II of Prussia, although fierce, how could one country beat so many?

At this time, there were cheers within Tsarist Russia.

The soldiers felt that they were going to be honored for meritorious service.

The slave owners were about to get a large number of slaves from Prussia.

The noble lords of the estates were given large tracts of land.

The power of Tsarist Russia will be expanded.

But at this time, the disadvantage of Peter, a foreigner, as emperor was highlighted, in his opinion, Tsarist Russia won, what did he have to do with it?

As a brain-dead fan of Prussia, he made peace with Prussia directly after ascending the throne, giving up all the fruits of Tsarist Russia's victories in the Seven Years' War.

This was simply unreasonable at the time.

At that time, almost all the countries of Europe were related to each other, so they had a tradition that no matter what nationality you were from, as long as you succeeded to become king or emperor, you had to protect the interests and dignity of the country.

It's not hard to see why.

In modern times, for example, your distant second uncle is the CEO of a certain group company, and he has no heirs, so let you succeed this company.

Then you will say, "Damn, this company is not mine, why should I protect the interests of this company?"

Business negotiations are going to be won? Trying to defeat your competitors?

No, no, hurry up and lend money to a competitor and give a handful of milk. Because I like the products of my competitors.

Isn't this a hole in the brain?

Peter was such a man.

What he did was incomprehensible to even his cronies.

At the state banquet to celebrate the signing of the peace treaty with Prussia, the commander of the city guard, who was also Peter's sworn friend, Marshal Rzev asked Peter: "Your Majesty, why do you want to make peace with the Prussians?" This harms the interests of Tsarist Russia! ”

Peter said in Russian, mixed with German: "Do you think I am unfamiliar with the position of the Emperor of Tsarist Russia? You know, my grandmother was a Swedish princess! Sweden is the light of civilization in Europe, and my uncle is now the king of Sweden! If I had been given freedom, I would have sat on the throne of a civilized country now, not in this cold place! ”

After so many years in Tsarist Russia, Peter couldn't even speak Russian.

In addition to the words, he also despised Tsarist Russia as a hillbilly.

This kind of person can only be said to be wonderful.

Marshal Zhev was silent after hearing this, and he suddenly felt that compared with Peter, Catherine was simply much better, at least Catherine thought of herself as a Tsarist Russian, she could speak Russian fluently, and converted to Orthodox Christianity.

She thinks of herself as a Tsarist in her bones.

Zhev believed that in the court, the vast majority of the nobles were optimistic about Catherine.

It's just that the situation is unclear now, and everyone is not taking a stand.

For Tsarist Russia, there was already a precedent for empresses, so for them to make Catherine empress, there was no psychological obstacle for them at all.

Come to think of this.

Rzhev felt that it was time to act.

Because others have a choice, but he and Peter are already in the same camp, he doesn't have a choice.

No matter how much Peter harmed the interests of Tsarist Russia.

So Zhefu asked Peter: "Your Majesty, what do you think of the Empress?" ”

"Ekaterina?" Peter was immediately furious, and in front of the envoys of various countries, he directly rebuked angrily, "She is a woman, a female cousin!" Her family is nothing more than a down-and-out little aristocrat in the Prussian countryside! The daughter of a broken family has no education to talk about! There is not a single good person in the entire Auguste family! ”

August is the surname of Catherine's mother's family, which directly scolded the old man together, and in front of the envoys of various European countries, which can be said to be a great insult.
