Chapter 1564 The woman involved
Zeng Yunfeng had some speculations about the owner behind the officer, but judging from the current situation of the castle, the identity of this owner was not as noble as Zeng Yunfeng imagined.
At least he was not the King of Prussia Frederick II, but the owner of this castle was obviously of certain power, but judging from the current appearance of the castle, this owner was not as powerful as Zeng Yunfeng imagined, and even
Some gaps.
But it is obvious that this man received some attention in front of Frederick II, otherwise the existence of Prussian officers would become a contradiction.
You should know that the Kingdom of Prussia has just won the Silesian War, and their military control is far beyond other neighboring countries and states.
Frederick II would not allow Prussian officers to be controlled by various nobles at will, especially tolerating sand in his army.
Frederick II is a man with a strong desire for control. From this perspective alone, the master status mentioned by this Prussian officer should not be too low. At least it may be very similar to Frederick II.
Close.
Just now, the door was knocked, Zeng Yunfeng winked at the guard beside him, and the guard stepped forward and gently opened the door.
There was a man standing outside, looking very cramped. When the door was opened, the man said directly, "Boss, I seem to have done something wrong."
Zeng Yunfeng's eyes swept at this person. This person was nothing but Gris Allen.
Seeing him, Zeng Yunfeng breathed a sigh of relief. The situation didn't seem so bad. He shook his head, chuckled, then pointed to the seat next to him and said, "Sit down, you've already got here, there's nothing to smash.
, What else is there that our brothers have never seen before?"
Gris Allen walked to the chair beside Zeng Yunfeng, looking a little cramped. After all, it was not what he wanted to see if Zeng Yunfeng was involved in this matter, but it was obvious that someone had already known part of his identity.
, and hope to negotiate with the person who can make decisions behind him.
For Gris Allen, this was the first time he had such a situation beyond his control. It was obvious that his actions had been leaked, which implicated his boss.
Of course, it is because my boss cares about me and is so worried that I come here.
Obviously, the person behind the Prussian officer also clearly knew the weight of Gris Allen in Zeng Yunfeng's heart.
Otherwise, such a situation would not be set up to let Zeng Yunfeng get in.
"So who belongs to this castle?" At this time, a servant brought a few cups of coffee and placed it in front of Zeng Yunfeng and others.
Gris Allen was brewing for a while before saying, "This manor belongs to the Duke of Anhalttzebst, and the Duke is not so prominent, but he was once a general in the Prussian army and was later named
Duke.”
"This manor is his manor in Brandenburg. Although this manor is not within his fiefdom, it is enough to show that he and Frederick II have an extremely close relationship."
As he said that, Gris Allen picked up the coffee in front of him and took a sip of it, then continued: "As far as I know, his daughter is now betrothed to the crown prince of Russia!"
Zeng Yunfeng was suddenly shocked when he heard these words, "What's her name?"
Gris Allen's face froze slightly, and suddenly his face turned a little embarrassed and annoyed.
"Her name is Sofi Auguste, and I once knew her."
"It's not just about knowing each other!" Zeng Yunfeng looked at Gris Allen with some amusement.
"Well, we almost entered the marriage hall, but my family fell later."
"I just know her now. I met her again in the Principality of Anhalttzebst more than a year ago. She obviously was not doing well!" Gris Allen was a little depressed.
"She used to be lively and active, but the one I met was not like her when she was a child, nor was she like the one I just met."
"The reason why my marriage with her failed was mainly because her mother, the Duchess, opposed her, who was mean and picky."
"She is very dissatisfied with my family and thinks I am a down-and-out nobleman and is not worthy of Sophie at all."
"As my family declined more and more, the marriage was finally left alone."
When Zeng Yunfeng heard Gris Allen say this, he paused a little. Others didn't know it, but Zeng Yunfeng was too clear.
Most people in later generations may not know who the name Sofi August is, but when they mention another name, the world must know it.
The name is Ekaterina. She is the eighth-famous emperor of the Russian Empire, Caterina II, and the only queen in Russian history who is named the Great Emperor.
However, she was initially selected as the fiancée of Peter, the heir of the Russian royal family, and converted to Orthodox religion after marriage, and then changed her name to Ekaterina.
Zeng Yunfeng didn't expect that the reason why Gris Allen was involved in this incident was actually related to Yekatera.
It seems that this is not just because his actions have been exposed, but more likely because he has been involved in this political marriage.
This political marriage of Katerina can be said to have helped the rise of Prussia and played a very important role in it.
One of the important reasons why Russia withdrew from the alliance after the last seven years of war was that Yekatera II, although she did not directly promote it.
Later, she became a coup and pushed her husband off the throne, and established herself as the new Russian emperor.
This incident directly affected the benefits Prussia gained in the Seven Years' War and the European landscape afterwards.
What Zeng Yunfeng did not expect was that Frederick II began to plan this matter after the end of the Second Silesian War.
From this matter alone, we can find that Frederi is also a guy who can't get up early without profit and is also a person who plans ahead of time.
Prussian ambition is undoubtedly reflected in Zeng Yunfeng. Perhaps the others present may not know the meaning of this, but Zeng Yunfeng is too clear.
In the future, Russia, under Ekaterina, frequently conquered East Asia and the Crimean Peninsula, which even restrained a lot of European power.
This also attracted enough artillery fire for the rise of Prussia. Zeng Yunfeng did not believe that Caterina did not provide any help to the rise of Prussia.
Of course, Caterina will never admit to being secretly colluded with Prussia. This is something that any married noble woman cannot be tolerated by other countries.
Yekaterina would definitely say that she protected Russia's interests as the Russian emperor, but if things were so simple, she would underestimate the methods of these European nobles.
Political marriage is almost a means of political game in Europe. It is a means that European aristocrats will use to win over relationships through marriage and even form distribution of interests.
The daughter of this duke is now stuck at this critical point, while Gris Allen happens to have some relationship with the woman Sophie.
Perhaps it was precisely because of this that Frederick II's attention and turned his attention to Gris Allen accurately. It is estimated that the identity behind Gris Allen was also investigated, which is also a good investigation.
This made Gris Allen gradually reveal his traces.
It can be said that this is a coincidence or a huge opportunity.
