"Queen Wilhelmina of the Netherlands!"
Mary exclaimed: "When did Tangning get involved with her?"
"Sister, please keep your voice down."
Charlotte was startled by her sister and complained a little.
"Okay, I'll pay attention."
Mary is now very concerned about Tangning's secret.
She really wants to know how her fiancé got involved with the Queen of the Netherlands. This is so exciting.
Mary suddenly thought of something, and then asked Charlotte speculatively.
"The secret you mentioned is that the two of them have an affair, right?"
"Ah! Sister, how did you guess it?"
Charlotte, I can’t believe that my sister thought of it so quickly.
"Tangning, this guy likes to flirt with women. What if he has something to do with Wilhelmina? It must be this one."
Mary knew very well what kind of character her fiancé was. Although he was very kind to her, his nature was somewhat romantic and he was also very attractive to women.
"How did Tangning get involved with Wilhelmina? The two of them obviously have very little contact!"
In Mary's impression, Tangning and Wilhelmina had very few opportunities to contact each other on the European continent, and Tangning had been away from Europe for a long time.
Could it be that we are not far away and can still be related?
"Sister, the affair between these two began in January 1902."
Charlotte explained to Mary the origin of the development of Tangning's relationship with Queen Wilhelmina of the Netherlands.
"Luxembourg and Helan are friendly countries, and our two families are also very close.
After New Year's Day in 1902, didn't my father arrange for the two of us to go to the Kingdom of the Netherlands to visit relatives? Tangning also went with us at that time, do you remember?"
"No way? It didn't start from that time, right?"
Mary said in disbelief: "Can feelings develop at the first contact?"
Tangning is charming among little girls and is attractive to them. Mary knows this.
But Wilhelmina was different. At that time, she was already a king and married.
Wilhelmina was born in 1880. Her father William III died in 1890. She inherited the throne, but because of her young age, she was regent by her mother. After her birthday in 1898, she officially ascended the throne in Amsterdam on September 6, 1898. Not long after she ascended the throne, in 1901
She married Hendrik, Duke of Mecklenburg-Schwerin.
How could Wilhelmina like Tangning at that time? Mary was really unbelievable.
"Sister, brother Tangning, you are so awesome.
In less than half a month when we were visiting the Netherlands, Tang Ning quickly won the Queen's heart."
Charlotte said with certainty.
In order to prove that she was not wrong, Charlotte recalled more details and described them to her sister vividly.
"After Queen Wilhelmina married Hendrik, Duke of Mecklenburg-Schwerin, she has been living a bad life. Hendrick was very dissatisfied with his life and made rude remarks many times.
In the days after the two got married, Queen Wilhelmina kept trying to please him, but Prince Hendrick was always dissatisfied with the status quo. Not long after they got married, his true colors were revealed and he spoke harshly to her. He not only contacted his old lover, but also contacted her outside.
Many other women he hooked up with, and it is said that they all had illegitimate children.
Prince Hendrick's story was reported by newspapers, and the Dutch criticized him, but the prince did not change. Instead, he blamed the queen. From then on, the relationship between the queen and the prince became sour.
Sister, you know that Brother Tangning has always been very disgusted with Hendrick, a bad nobleman who disrespects his wife and is arrogant and shameless.
The morning after Tangning's brother arrived at the palace, while playing in the garden, he saw Prince Hendrick scolding the Queen. He mocked him for being shameless and not worthy of being a man. The prince angrily scolded his brother back. This went back and forth.
, the two of them exchanged insults without admitting defeat, and in the end they almost started fighting.
That afternoon, the angry brother wrote a satirical novel under his real name and published it directly in several of the largest newspapers in the Netherlands. The content of the novel did not mention the prince's name, but everyone could see that the brother was torturing Prince Hendrick.
, angrily denounced his shameless behavior.
During the days when we lived in the Royal Palace of the Netherlands, Prince Hendrick and brother Tangning were constantly at odds with each other. In the end, the prince couldn't fight and ran outside to play.
During the time when the prince was away, Brother Tangning somehow ended up getting together with Queen Wilhelmina.
If I hadn't wanted to play with my brother that time, so I accidentally saw two people kissing each other deeply, I wouldn't have known that the two of them had an affair!"
After listening to her sister's description, Mary couldn't imagine it. It was so incredible.
"It's really unimaginable."
To be able to kiss Wilhelmina, who was in her twenties, was a bit too exciting for Mary.
"Sister, it's not as unimaginable as you think."
Charlotte told Mary the scene she saw with a serious face.
"My brother was only a little shorter than Queen Wilhelmina at that time. And Queen Wilhelmina was the one who took the initiative. She lowered her head and kissed her brother. Then when she wanted to let go, she was entangled by him."
"Did they notice you except when you were kissing?"
"Of course I didn't notice it. I was hiding behind a small box tree and they couldn't see it at all."
Charlotte patted her chest and said proudly.
"As for what they did after kissing, it seemed like they hugged each other, but I was afraid of being discovered at that time, so I left quietly."
"Tangning, do you know about this?"
Mary looked at her sister who had become a little weird now, feeling a little emotional in her heart, and then asked the questions she was concerned about.
"Brother, of course I don't know." Charlotte said confidently.
"But later, my brother discovered it, and I was warned, so I never told my sister about you."
"After being discovered by you, Tangning should have stopped this dangerous relationship in time!"

From Mary's own understanding, Tangning doesn't seem to like women who are much older than herself.
Wilhelmina is one year older than Tangning. After she was discovered, it didn't look like they were connected.
Judging from the situation, Wilhelmina should have taken the initiative, while Tangning just passively accepted it.
Recalling that I, my sister, and Tang Ning went to the Royal Palace of the Netherlands together, it seemed that the prince left in anger. What happened afterwards was that Wilhelmina took the initiative to seek to get close to Tang Ning, and Tang Ning did not respond often.
Tangning is so smart and does such a dangerous thing. After Charlotte discovers it, she probably won't do it again.
"No, after my brother was discovered by me, his relationship with the Queen was indeed cold for a while."
Charlotte shook her head and denied her sister Mary's guess. Although Tangning was not doing it at the time, the two still had contact later.
"Brother, I was indeed far away from the Queen at that time. But the Queen did not give up.
Once, Queen Wilhelmina used candy to lure me away to create space with my brother, but I just pretended to leave. After I left, she seduced my brother.
My brother was very sensible at first, but the queen was too proactive. She asked him for a kiss. My brother refused for a while, but he didn’t know what she said. Finally, he accepted it.
Later, I asked Brother Tangning about it, and he said there was nothing we could do about it.
He asked me to explain that Queen Wilhelmina was so sad. If I rejected her cruelly, it would make her heart that was already severely hurt by the prince even more hurt. If something happened later, it would not be good for anyone.
”
"Is Queen Wilhelmina that extreme? It shouldn't be as serious as Tangning said."
Mary couldn't believe that Queen Wilhelmina could be so fragile. No matter how Tangning looked at it, she was overthinking and her heart was too kind and gentle.
"This should be like what my brother said. Sister, do you still remember?
Queen Wilhelmina, before Brother Tangning went to America, often invited us to visit the Netherlands, and she herself came to Luxembourg many times.
The first time she came to Luxembourg, her brother Tangning avoided her. He ran to Sal next door to Luxembourg, but he came back later.
Later, brother Tangning told me the reason. The reason why he came back was because he received a letter from the Queen, which expressed her sorrow and longing. Brother was afraid that something would go wrong, so he came back."
When her sister told her the whole story of this secret, Mary felt a little emotional that her fiancé's charm was so great.
This is beyond Mary's imagination.
"Queen Wilhelmina, I thought she was a very good person, but I didn't expect..."
Just when Mary was about to say something, Tangning walked into the balcony in her pajamas, interrupting what she wanted to say.
"Oh, my dear Mary, what were you and Charlotte talking about?"
