"Your Majesty, is there anything I can do for you?"
Prince Metternich's answer surprised Jerome Bonaparte. He did not expect Metternich to agree to his conditions so quickly.
According to Metternich's intelligence, he should know very well how much risk he needs to bear in what he asks him to do.
However, now that Metternich has agreed to serve Jerome Bonaparte, Jerome Bonaparte will naturally not use the power of the French Empire to "kidnap" Prince Metternich again.
"Mr. Metternich, the fact that I asked you to do it is very simple! I hope you can use your ability to fight for a certain amount of free space for Sissi as much as possible!" Jerome Bonaparte put forward bluntly
own requirements.
really……
After hearing Jerome Bonaparte's conditions, Metternich couldn't help but secretly say something.
"Your Majesty, please forgive me for asking you a question!" Prince Metternich asked again.
"What's the problem?" Jerome Bonaparte was stunned for a few seconds, and then asked Prince Metternich.
"What is the relationship between you and our Queen Elizabeth?" Prince Metternich asked Jerome Bonaparte tactfully.
"What kind of relationship can it be!" Jerome Bonaparte said calmly to Prince Metternich: "Of course it is a relationship of friends!"
"It's just a friendship!" Prince Metternich looked at Jerome Bonaparte suspiciously. He suspected that the relationship between Emperor Jerome Bonaparte and Queen Elizabeth was not so pure.
However, this is also normal.
In most cases, marriages between European aristocrats are political or economic unions. The parties to the marriage do not need feelings as a basis, so both men and women have the right to cheat.
Even cheating between an emperor and an empress is a rare and common thing.
However, the premise for nobles to cheat is to ensure that they will produce family offspring before they are allowed to cheat.
Cheating between royal families is only allowed if they ensure the birth of a baby boy.
As for whether the person concerned is cheating or not, that depends on his or her own wishes.
Therefore, Metternich was not surprised that Queen Elizabeth "cheated" on Emperor Jérôme Bonaparte. On the contrary, he was happy for the queen's cheating.
However, the queen's "cheating" before the birth of a baby boy really made Prince Metternich worried about the issue of heirs for the Habsburg family.
"Metternich, can you use your rotten brain!" Jerome Bonaparte cursed angrily, "How could I be interested in a little girl who is only eighteen years old?"
Nia: meow meow meow), not to mention that the little girl Sissi is still a little underdeveloped in the film!
The reason why I asked you to help her was just out of sympathy!"
Now that Jerome Bonaparte denied that he had an affair with Queen Elizabeth, Prince Metternich felt a little disappointed. He nodded and apologized to Jerome Bonaparte: "Your Majesty, it was me, Meng Lang, just now.
Yes! Please forgive me!"
"Mr. Metternich, I forgive you!" Jerome Bonaparte waved his hand and responded to Prince Metternich, "By the way, I leave this matter to you! You must help me do it well.
!”
"Please rest assured! I will do my best for the friendship between the French Empire and the Austrian Empire!" Prince Metternich assured Jerome Bonaparte.
"That's it!" Jerome Bonaparte nodded with satisfaction. Then he suddenly thought of something and asked Prince Metternich again: "By the way! Pauline von Metternich, it was you who asked her to go there.
Yes!"
Prince Metternich was stunned and replied with a hint of nervousness: "Your Majesty, I did not ask Pauline von Metternich to visit you! This should be her own act. I hope she did not bring it to you.
Come trouble!"
"It's not bothering me at all!" Jerome Bonaparte looked at Prince Metternich with interest and said, "It's just that you are really ready to let Richard Metternich marry her niece!"
"That's right! Your Majesty!" Metternich responded decisively.
"Then does Richard Metternich know about this?" Jerome Bonaparte asked again.
"My son doesn't know this yet!" Prince Metternich said to Jerome Bonaparte again, "I plan to tell him this next year!"
"Tsk, tsk, tsk!" Jerome Bonaparte gently shook his head and responded to Prince Metternich: "You are really arbitrary enough!"
"Your Majesty, this is not arbitrary!" Prince Metternich retorted, "This is how marriages between nobles should be!"
"Poor Richard!" Jérôme Bonaparte couldn't help but sigh, "I hope he won't be surprised after hearing the news!"
Prince Metternich remained silent, waiting for Jerome Bonaparte to take the initiative to end the topic.
"Okay! Let's not talk about this anymore!" Jérôme Bonaparte, who did not want to get too involved in Metternich's family affairs, decisively ended the topic, "It's not too early, let's go back!"
Jerome Bonaparte and Prince Metternich turned around and returned to the Hofburg Palace.
Pushing open the door of the ballroom, Count Grenell was still standing at the door dutifully.
"Your Majesty, Your Highness the Prince!
"Count Gugnelle immediately curtsied to Jerome Bonaparte and Prince Metternich.
"Mr. Count, I wonder if you have disclosed my whereabouts!" Jerome Bonaparte immediately asked Count Grenell.
"Your Majesty, I did not disclose it to anyone!" Count Grenell responded quickly.
"You did a great job!" Jerome Bonaparte nodded with satisfaction, "I hope you can go to Paris one day! I will entertain you well at the Tuileries Palace!"
"Your Majesty, I will definitely go there!" Count Grenell responded excitedly.
Jerome Bonaparte and Prince Metternich continued walking inside, and then parted ways at a fork in the road.
Prince Metternich returned to the hall where he had been before to continue talking with Marshal Radetzky, while Jerome Bonaparte returned to where Empress Augusta was.
When Jérôme Bonaparte returned, he was surprised to find that the position of Queen Augusta was now occupied by an unknown lady.
Jérôme Bonaparte walked slowly up to the lady and asked softly: "Beautiful lady!"
After seeing Jerome Bonaparte, the lady thought that Jerome Bonaparte was here to invite him to dance. Her face immediately showed an expression of surprise: "Your Majesty, what are your orders?"
"May I ask where my wife Augusta is now?" Jérôme Bonaparte asked the lady.
"Your Majesty, I don't know where the noble Queen has gone!" the lady replied with a hint of disappointment on her face, "When I was sitting here, Her Majesty the Queen had already disappeared."
"Thank you for your answer!" To express his gratitude, Jérôme Bonaparte took the lady's hand and kissed her hand gently, and then left.
The lady was left with an infatuated expression, looking at Jérôme Bonaparte leaving.
…
After leaving the lady, Jérôme Bonaparte searched around the dance floor again, but never found Augusta.
Not only Augusta, but also Yin Lisabai was not seen.
Only Franz Joseph was still dancing in the center of the dance floor.
Ever since, Jérôme Bonaparte went to Count Gugnelle and asked him if he knew where the queen had gone.
"Your Majesty, you and I have also seen the Queen! However, I think you should ask the Countess Lafayre about this question!" Guernai replied to Jérôme Bonaparte.
"Countess Lafalte, what does she do?" Jérôme Bonaparte frowned and asked Count Guernai.
"Mrs. Lafalte is the ceremonial wife of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth, and she is also the manager of the ballroom this time!" Count Grenell hurriedly explained to Jérôme Bonaparte.
"Then where is she now?" Jérôme Bonaparte said to Count Gugnelle.
"Your Majesty, please come with me!"
Under the guidance of Count Gugnelle, Jérôme Bonaparte finally met Countess Lafalte.
"Your Majesty, you came to ask me about news about Her Majesty the Queen, right?" Before Jérôme Bonaparte could speak, Countess Lafayette asked first.
"That's right, do you know where Augusta is now?" Jérôme Bonaparte asked Countess Lafalte curiously.
"Her Majesty Queen Augusta is with Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth. They should be in Princess Sophie's bedroom now!" Countess Lafayre replied to Jérôme Bonaparte.
"Princess Sophie?" Jérôme Bonaparte thought for a moment and then asked again: "Are you referring to Elizabeth Yin's daughter Sophie?"
"That's right!" Countess Lafalte replied to Jérôme Bonaparte, "Your Majesty, how about I take you there?"
"That's troublesome!" Jérôme Bonaparte responded to Countess Lafayre. He also wanted to see what Princess Sophie looked like.
Jérôme Bonaparte and Countess Lafayette walked all the way, and after passing numerous "levels", they finally arrived at a gate.
"Your Majesty, Queen Augusta and Queen Elizabeth are behind this door, in the fifth room from the left!" Countess Lafayre said to Jérôme Bonaparte.
"Won't you come with me?" Jérôme Bonaparte asked curiously.
"Your Majesty, the Queen Mother Sophie has issued an order! No one can enter Princess Sophie's room without permission!" Countess Lafayre explained to Jérôme Bonaparte.
"Okay then!" Jérôme Bonaparte nodded, then pushed the door open and entered alone.
After seeing Jerome Bonaparte's clothes, the lady behind the gate asked Jerome Bonaparte with a straight face: "This is not the place you should come!"
