Chapter 807: Princess Sophie
"Your Majesty, is there anything I can do for you!"
Prince Metternich's answer to Jérôme's reply. Bonaparte was surprised, he did not expect Metternich to agree to his terms so quickly.
According to Metternich's intellect, he should have a good idea of how much risk he had to take for him to do what he was asking him to do.
However, for now, Metternich has promised to work for Jérôme. Bonaparte Service, Jérôme. Naturally, Bonaparte would no longer use the power of the French Empire to "kidnap" Prince Metternich.
"Monsieur Metternich, the fact that I made you do it is simple! I hope you can use your abilities to gain as much freedom as possible for Sissi! "Jérôme. Bonaparte bluntly put forward his claim.
Really......
Metternich after listening to Jérôme. After Bonaparte's conditions, he couldn't help but say a secret sentence in his heart.
"Your Majesty, I beg your pardon for taking the liberty of asking you a question!" Prince Metternich asked again.
"What's the problem?" Jérôme. Bonaparte was stunned for a few seconds, then asked Prince Metternich.
"What is the relationship between you and our queen Yin Lizabeth?" Prince Metternich tactfully asked Jérôme. Bonaparte said.
"What else can it do!" Jérôme. Bonaparte said calmly to Prince Metternich: "Of course it is a friendship!" ”
"It's just a friend!" Prince Metternich looked at Jérôme suspiciously. Bonaparte, he was very suspicious of Jérôme. The relationship between Emperor Bonaparte and Empress Elisabeth was not so pure.
However, this is also normal.
Marriages between European aristocrats are mostly political or economic unions, and the parties to the marriage do not need to be based on affection, so both men and women have the right to cheat.
Even if it is cheating between the emperor and the empress, it is a rare and common thing.
However, the premise of the aristocracy's infidelity is that it is allowed to cheat only if it guarantees the birth of family offspring.
Cheating between royal families is only allowed to cheat when a baby boy is born.
As for whether the person concerned cheats or not, it depends on his own wishes.
Therefore, Metternich did not "cheat" on Jérôme for Queen Elisabeth. Emperor Bonaparte was surprised, and he was still happy about the empress's derailment.
But the queen's "cheating" before giving birth to a baby boy really made Prince Metternich worry about the Habsburg heirs.
"Metternich, can you use your rotten brain!" Jérôme. Bonaparte scolded angrily, "How can I be interested in a little girl who is only eighteen years old (Vilnia: meow meow), not to mention that the little girl Sissi is still a little poorly developed!"
The reason why I asked you to help her was only out of sympathy! ”
Now Jérôme. After Bonaparte denied that he had a leg with Queen Elisabeth, Prince Metternich was a little disappointed, and he nodded to Jérôme. Bonaparte apologized: "Your Majesty, it was me Meng Lang just now!" I beg your pardon! ”
"Mr. Metternich, I forgive you!" Jérôme. Bonaparte waved his hand and replied to Prince Metternich, "By the way, I'll leave this matter to you!" Be sure to help me do it! ”
"Rest assured! For the sake of the friendship between the French Empire and the Austrian Empire, I will definitely do my best! "Prince Metternich to Jérôme. Bonaparte assured.
"So be it!" Jérôme. Bonaparte nodded in satisfaction, and then he suddenly thought of something, and asked Prince Metternich again: "Yes! Pauline. Feng. Metternich was the one you let her through! ”
Prince Metternich was stunned, and replied with a little nervousness: "Your Majesty, I didn't let Pauline . . . Feng. Metternich came to visit you! This should be her own initiative, and I hope she doesn't bother you! ”
"It's not bothering!" Jérôme. Bonaparte looked at Prince Metternich with interest and said, "It's just that you're really going to let Richard. Metternich marries her niece! ”
"That's right! Your Majesty! Metternich replied decisively.
"That Richard. Metternich knows this! "Jérôme. Bonaparte asked again.
"My son doesn't know about it yet!" Prince Metternich once again said to Jérôme. "I'm going to tell him that again next year!" said Bonaparte. ”
"Tut-tut!" Jérôme. Bonaparte shook his head gently and replied to Prince Metternich: "You are very arbitrary enough!" ”
"Your Majesty, this is not arbitrary!" Prince Metternich retorted, "This is how marriage between nobles should be!" ”
"Poor Richard!" Jérôme. Bonaparte couldn't help but sigh with emotion, "I hope he won't be surprised when he learns the news!" ”
Prince Metternich was silent, he was waiting for Jérôme. Bonaparte took the initiative to close the topic.
"That's it! Don't talk about that! "Jérôme, who does not want to get too involved in Metternich's family affairs. Bonaparte decisively ended the topic, "It's not too early, we'll go back too!" ”
Jérôme. Bonaparte and Prince Metternich turned around and returned to the Hofburg Palace.
Pushing open the door of the ballroom, the Count of Gnell still stood dutifully at the gate.
"Your Majesty, Your Royal Highness!
"Count Gnell immediately sent a message to Jérôme. Bonaparte and Prince Metternich curtsied.
"Mr. Earl, I don't know if you have revealed my whereabouts!" Jérôme. Bonaparte immediately inquired about the Count of Gnell.
"Your Majesty, I didn't reveal it to anyone!" Count Gnell hurriedly responded.
"You're doing a great job!" Jérôme. Bonaparte nodded in satisfaction, "I hope that one day, you will be able to go to Paris!" I will entertain you well at the Palazzo Douinlery! ”
"Your Majesty, I will definitely pass!" Count Gnell replied excitedly.
Jérôme. Bonaparte and Prince Metternich continued in, then parted ways at a fork in the road.
Prince Metternich returned to the hall where he had been before and continued his conversation with Marshal Radetzky, while Jérôme. Bonaparte returned to the place where Empress Augusta was.
When Jérôme. When Bonaparte returned, he was surprised to find that the Empress Augusta's place was now occupied by an unknown lady.
Jérôme. Bonaparte walked slowly up to the lady and asked in a soft voice, "Beautiful lady! ”
Lady in the sight of Jérôme. After Bonaparte, I thought Jérôme. Bonaparte had come to invite him to dance, and an expression of surprise immediately appeared on her face: "Your Majesty, what do you command!" ”
"Where is my wife, Augusta?" Jérôme. Bonaparte asked the lady.
"Your Majesty, I don't know where the noble queen is!" The lady replied with a slight hint of loss on her face, "When I sit here, Her Majesty is long gone. ”
"Thank you for your answer!" As a token of appreciation, Jérôme. Bonaparte took the lady's hand, gently kissed the hand, and left.
yawenba
Leaving only the lady's expression, looking at Jérôme who was leaving. Bonaparte.
……
Leave the ladies of Jérôme. Bonaparte searched the dance floor again, but never found Augusta.
Not only Augusta, but even Yin Lizabeth's figure was not seen.
Only Franz. Joseph was still dancing in the middle of the dance floor.
So, Jérôme. Bonaparte went to the Count of Gnaire again and asked him if he knew where the Empress had gone.
"Your Majesty, I also see the Empress! Still, I think you should ask the Countess of Rafalte! "Gernay to Jérôme. Bonaparte replied.
"Countess de Lafalte, what does she do?" Jérôme. Bonaparte frowned and asked Count Gernay.
"Madame Lafalte is the lady of court etiquette for Her Majesty Queen Yin Lisabeth, and she is also the administrator of the ballroom this time!" The Count of Gnell hurried to Jérôme. Bonaparte explained.
"And where is she now?" Jérôme. Bonaparte said to the Count of Gnell.
"Your Majesty, please follow me!"
Under the guidance of the Count of Gnell, Jérôme. Bonaparte finally met the Countess de Lafalte.
"Your Majesty, you said that you came to ask me about the news of Her Majesty the Queen, right?" Not yet waiting for Jérôme. Bonaparte spoke, and the Countess de Lafalte asked first.
"Yes, do you know where you are in Augusta?" Jérôme. Bonaparte inquired curiously about the Countess de Lafalte.
"Her Majesty Empress Augusta is with Her Majesty Queen Elisabeth, and they should be in Princess Sophie's bedroom now!" Countess of Rafalte vs. Jérôme. Bonaparte replied.
"Princess Sophie?" Jérôme. Bonaparte thought for a moment, then asked again, "You mean Sophie, the daughter of Elisabeth?" ”
"That's right!" Countess of Rafalte vs. Jérôme. Bonaparte replied, "Your Majesty, or I'll take you there!" ”
"Then it's trouble!" Jérôme. Bonaparte replied to the Countess de Lafalte, who also wanted to see what Princess Sophie looked like.
Jérôme. Bonaparte and the Countess de Lafalte made their way through numerous "checkpoints" before finally reaching a gate.
"Your Majesty, Empress Augusta and Empress Yin Lizabeth are behind this door, counting the fifth room from the left!" Countess of Rafalte vs. Jérôme. Bonaparte said.
"Won't you come with me?" Jérôme. Bonaparte asked curiously.
"Your Majesty, Queen Sufi gives an order! No one is allowed to enter Princess Sophie's room without permission! "The Countess of Rafalte to Jérôme. Bonaparte explained.
"Alright then!" Jérôme. Bonaparte nodded, then pushed the door open alone.
The lady behind the gate sees Jérôme. After Bonaparte's dress, he turned his face to Jérôme. Bonaparte asked, "This is not the place you should be!" ”
