After the Queen Mother Sophie left with a stomach full of grievances, Franz. Joseph smiled and looked at Jérôme. Bonaparte issued an invitation.

On the way to the ball, Franz. Joseph whispered to Jérôme. Bonaparte expressed his gratitude.

"Thank me for what!" Jérôme. Bonaparte smiled in response.

"If it weren't for you, Sophie would probably never have returned to Yin Lizabeth's hands." Franz. A wry smile appeared on the corner of Joseph's mouth, and then he said frankly: "You don't know that my mother has a strong desire to control, and she wants everything in the Hofburg Palace to follow a set trajectory, even if I am no exception!" ”

"I can understand your struggles! With a wife on one side and a mother on the other, both of them are the closest people! When two people have a conflict, the person caught in the middle often has to endure great pain! "Jérôme. Bonaparte put his hands drooping at Franz. Joseph's shoulders (Franz. An unnatural expression flashed across Joseph's face, but he disguised it with great speed) said to him.

Then, Franz. Joseph again sent a message to Jérôme. Bonaparte expressed his gratitude.

When Jérôme. Bonaparte and Franz. When Joseph returned to the ball, he immediately attracted the attention of all the nobles at the ball.

The originally elegant piece of music came to an abrupt end at this time. Bonaparte waved his hand and said to the crowd: "Then the music, the dance!" ”

The band played again, and the nobles on the dance floor continued to dance to elegant music.

And Jérôme. Bonaparte and Franz. Joseph and the others sat on the sofa next to the dance floor and chatted. Bonaparte asked Franz. When exactly did Joseph leave, Empress Augusta intimately taught Empress Yin Lizabeth the experience of raising children.

After a while of talking, several nobles appeared in Jérôme. Bonaparte and Franz. Joseph's presence.

They sent to Jérôme. Bonaparte and Franz. Joseph bowed, then asked the two monarchs if they could invite the empress to dance with him.

"You should ask the Empress, not me!" Jérôme. Bonaparte shrugged his shoulders and pretended not to care.

"No! Thank you! Empress Augusta decisively refused the nobleman's invitation, and the nobleman had a lost look on his face.

"Me too!" Queen Yin Lizabeth also opened her mouth to respond.

After receiving the awkward departure of the nobles who had been rejected by the two queens, two richly dressed ladies appeared, who also bowed to the two monarchs, and then asked them if they would like to dance with them.

Jérôme. Bonaparte tactfully rejected the noblewoman, while Franz. Joseph was obliged by the fact that one of the noblewomen was an important minister of the empire, so he agreed to the noblewoman's invitation.

Franz. After Joseph left, Jérôme. Bonaparte ordered his servants to summon the Countess de Lafalte to him, and he had something to ask of her.

After a while, the Countess of Rafalte appeared in Jérôme. In front of Bonaparte, she curtsy to the emperor and the two empresses.

"Madame de Rafalte, don't stand, sit down!" Jérôme. Bonaparte replied coldly to the Countess de Lafalte.

"Your Majesty, I don't dare!" The Countess of Rafalte hurried to Jérôme. Bonaparte replied.

"Sit down, sit! Where is all this nonsense! "Jérôme. Bonaparte said a word impatiently to the Countess de Rafalte.

"Yes! Your Majesty! "The Countess of Rafalte pretended to be calm and confined to Jérôme. Bonaparte replied, and by this time she was ready to greet Jérôme. Emperor Bonaparte was furiously prepared.

Sitting on the sidelines, Elizabeth Yin saw that the teacher and friend who was in charge of teaching her manners was replaced by Jérôme. After Bonaparte reprimanded him like this, he also opened his mouth to relieve the siege: "Your Majesty, how did Madame de Lafalte make you unhappy, I will reprimand her!" Please forgive him! ”

Jérôme. Bonaparte paid no attention to Yin Lisabeth, he continued to stare at Lafalte and said, "Madame Lafalte, I think you should know why you were called by me!" ”

"I was prepared for this long time before I did it! Your Majesty! "The Countess of Rafalte was firmly committed to Jérôme. Bonaparte responded.

"Yes, you just need to be ready!" Jérôme. Bonaparte said to the Countess de Lafalte, still expressionless, "Madame de Lafalte, you ......."

In the heart of the Count of Rafalte silently waited for Jérôme. Bonaparte gave her punishment when (theoretically, the Countess of Lafalte was not subordinate to Jérôme. Bonaparte, but Jérôme, as a foreign monarch. Bonaparte could still punish him. ), Jérôme. Bonaparte turned to the Countess de Lafalte and said, "You have done a good job!" ”

Originally tense atmosphere in Jérôme. Bonaparte's words immediately became lighter.

The Countess of Rafalte clutched her chest and gasped heavily, as if she had just been on a roller coaster.

"Madame de Rafalte, would you like some red wine?" Jérôme. Bonaparte stretched out his hand and snapped his fingers, and the servant who received the signal immediately brought four glasses of red wine.

"Thank you for your magnanimity! Your Majesty! "The Countess of Rafalte picked up the red wine and said to Jérôme. Bonaparte responded.

"Nothing!" Jérôme. Bonaparte shook his head in reply to the Countess de Rafalte, and then took a sip of red wine.

"Your Majesty, what the hell are you talking about?" Empress Yin Lizabeth looked at Jérôme with a puzzled expression. Bonaparte said.

"Your Majesty, here's the thing...... "Countess Rafalte will take advantage of Jérôme. Bonaparte told her about the "revenge" of Empress Elizabeth.

"My God!" Queen Yin Lizabeth covered her mouth in horror and responded to the Countess de Rafalte, "How dare you do this?" ”

"Your Majesty, I'm just angry that the Queen Mother treats you with such an attitude!" The Countess of Rafalte replied to Queen Elisabeth: "A kind and lively queen like you should not be treated like this!" That's why I thought of using Jérôme. The power of His Majesty the Emperor Bonaparte, to avenge you! ”

"Your Majesty, I apologize to you deeply for the Countess of Rafalte!" Empress Elisabeth bowed her head for the Countess of Rafalte to take advantage of Jérôme. Bonaparte apologized for this.

"Apologize? Why apologize? "Jérôme. Bonaparte shrugged his shoulders and whispered to Empress Yin Lisabeth, "Even if Madame Lafalte doesn't choose to take advantage of me, I will find an opportunity to help you teach Grand Duchess Sophie a lesson!"

Sissi, you now have the custody of Princess Sophie, and you must show your mother to Princess Sophie.

Otherwise, she'll look for another chance to snatch Sophie away from you! ”

"I will!" Queen Elizabeth responded firmly to Jérôme. Bonaparte said.

"That's it! Madame Rafalt! There's nothing left for you here, you can go about your own business! "Jérôme. Bonaparte waved his hand and replied to the Countess de Lafalte.

The Countess de Lafalte drank the wine and bowed in farewell.

After a while, Queen Elizabeth rose again to face Jérôme. Bonaparte said, "Your Majesty, can I invite you to dance again!" ”

Jérôme. Bonaparte and Augusta both had surprised expressions on their faces, and then Jérôme. Bonaparte nodded and responded affectionately to Elizabeth, "Of course! My angel! ”

Jérôme. Bonaparte and Queen Elisabeth held hands and took advantage of the gap between the previous song and the next song to enter the dance floor again, and the music began again.

Jérôme. Bonaparte and Elisabeth Yin held hands and began to dance, and when the two of them gradually entered the rhythm, Empress Elisabeth Yin looked at him with clear eyes and asked, "Your Majesty, why do you want to help me again and again?" ”

"Isn't that bad?" Jérôme. Bonaparte looked left and right and said to him.

"Your Majesty, this will make me feel pressure!" Yin Lisabeth vs Jérôme. Bonaparte responded.

"You know what kind of pressure an 18-year-old girl can have!" Jérôme. Bonaparte took advantage of the gap between letting go and gently pinched Yin Lisabeth's nose.

"I can't betray my husband!" Yin Lisabeth vs Jérôme. Bonaparte said with a serious expression.

Jérôme. Bonaparte was stunned first, and then forced a smile to say to Yin Lisabeth: "You don't think that I have fallen in love with you by doing this!" ”

"Your Majesty!" Elisabeth pouted slightly at Jérôme. Bonaparte said, "Could you please answer my question seriously?" ”

"Let me tell you a story! Once upon a time there was a carefree princess ...... "Jérôme. While dancing, Bonaparte told her a story about the film "Princess Sissi" in his previous life and part of the history.

Queen Elisabeth after listening to Jérôme. After Bonaparte's story, he subconsciously said, "Her life was truly miserable!" ”

"Who's to say it isn't!" Jérôme. Bonaparte nodded approvingly.

Subsequently, Queen Yin Lizabeth suddenly realized that Jérôme. The story in Bonaparte's mouth was very similar to her own in the first half of her life, and she asked with wide eyes and disbelief: "Your Majesty, the person in the story can't be me, right?" ”

"Guess it's you!" Jérôme. Bonaparte replied ambiguously.

"It should ...... Right! Elisabeth was not sure if this was her, and then looked at Jérôme with a seek-seeking gaze. Bonaparte.

Under the eager gaze of Elizabeth Yin, Jérôme. Bonaparte slowly said to Yin Lisabeth: "I ......"
