Chapter 471: Duel


The reason why the Swedes did not participate in the civil strife in Russia, I am afraid that Paul I still needs to thank William, it is precisely because of William's maneuvering on the Swedish side that he persuaded Sweden to sit back and watch the sudden changes in the situation in Russia for the time being, and then slowly try to do it, of course, the Swedes did not take any action, at least the Swedes had a share of the support for Kutuzov.

In William's view, even if the Swedes and Russia are mortal enemies, it does not mean that there is no possibility of reconciliation, the key depends on how much sacrifice the Russian side is willing to make, if Russia cedes Estonia and Latvia and even Lithuania to Sweden, then the two countries may immediately become very close comrades-in-arms.

William once asked the Swedes about this issue, and William told the Swedes that as long as Paul I realized that without the support of Sweden and Prussia, he could not exterminate the rebels, then Paul I would definitely give in, and the Swedes would be able to bargain with the three regions mentioned above and St.

Petersburg.

Before William summoned Locks to inquire about the progress of negotiations with the Russians, Cristini walked into William's office with an unhappy face. ......................

During this time, because William was too busy, he and Christine spent only a handful of time together, and the last time he went to Hanover, Christinie was originally going to follow William, but because Louise felt that Christine had grown up, her marriage problem was also raised, so Christine not only did not go to Hanover, but also dealt with the so-called kingdom elites all day long in Brandenburg.

As mentioned earlier, the dowry that William prepared for Christine is the entire region of Western Lithuania, not only that, but the person who marries Christine will also be named the Duke of Lithuania, not to mention that Christine is a little beauty, even if she looks very sorry for the audience, there are a few people who can not be tempted under such generous conditions.

Christine's pursuers included not only the Prussian nobles, but also the royal family members of various European countries and the dignitaries of various countries.

But for these people, Christine's attitude has always been to ignore them.

Fortunately, everyone knows that Christini has William's favor, so everyone's attitude towards Christini is not surprising.

Among them was George III's fifth son and Augustus' younger brother Ernst, the British prince who was exactly a year older than Christianie.

There was also the third son of Leopold II and the younger brother of Anna, who was also known as Archduke Karl.

It has to be said that both of them were born in 1771, and their identities were also the best of Christine's suitors.

Although the relationship between Prussia and Austria is delicate now, there is still a relationship between Anna and Anna.

With Anna's protection, Karl was quite happy in Brandenburg, but the unhappiness of pursuing Christine and the uncertain relationship between Prussia and Austria filled Karl's heart with boredom.

Although Carl is only nineteen years old this year, in high society, no one will think of a nineteen-year-old person as a child, since he is an adult.

Then this man shoulders the burden of reviving the family, especially the boys.

And the pursuit of Christine is the task that Leopold II gave to his son!

Even Leopold II was in a cold sweat about Prussia's recent actions, and in such a situation he once again remembered the marriage.

Through the study of the Hohenzollern royal family, basically the whole of Europe knows that William's doting on Christine is completely to the point of doting, in other words, Christine's influence on William is definitely very profound.

Anna couldn't catch up with this.

And once any of the forces get Christine, there is no doubt that he can indirectly influence William.

Karl arrived in Brandenburg at the beginning of September, and for his arrival, Anna also held a large banquet, during which Anna very friendly introduced Karl to Christine, although under Louise's eyes, Christine behaved quite decently, but the hatred in her eyes could not be concealed.

But unexpectedly.

Karl behaved very well, which made Louise feel good about him.

Maybe it was really a joke from God, if there was one word to describe how Carl felt when he saw Christine, it was definitely love at first sight, even if Christine was not on the same page, but it did not affect Carl's feelings in the slightest.

Carl then launched a series of courting actions against Kristini, but none of them impressed Kristine.

Not only that, Karl's showmanship also made him a thorn in the side of a man, and that person was Prince Ernst.

There is only one Christine, and there are countless suitors for her at the moment, but only a few of them are the most noble.

Karl and Ernst were the best of them, so it was only natural that they would be rivals.

At a ball, the conflict between Carl and Ernst broke out completely, and the reason was that the two wanted to invite Cristini to dance.

Originally, Karl was the first to invite Christine to dance, but when Christine didn't know how to refuse Carl, Ernst also came out to invite Christine to dance, and before Christine could speak, a conflict broke out between the two noble men.

"Ernst, you're going too far!"

"Carl, can't you see that Christine didn't answer your invitation!

I'm not ashamed to stay here with such a dead face."

As he spoke, Ernst's face was full of sneer.

After listening to Ernst's words, Karl's face was already full of shame, after all, in front of the girl he liked, no one could stand being ridiculed, not to mention that Carl was also a nobleman.

"Ernst, you guy who has a scandal with your own sister dare to taunt me here, and don't look at what kind of person you are!"

After Karl finished speaking, he saw that Ernst's face was already full of anger, and at the same time, the English prince's hands involuntarily trembled.

"How dare you say it again!"

"Humph!

A paedophile like you doesn't deserve to pursue Princess Christine!

” This sentence was like a little water splashing into the already boiling oil pot of Le'er, only to see Ernst immediately straighten up and slap Karl in the face with a wave of his right hand.

Like William, Ernst was also very fond of his sister Princess Sophia, but at some point, Ernst's favor was misrepresented by the outside world as a secret between him and Sophia.

And this kind of rumor was not only not suppressed by the British royal family, but intensified, causing the prestige of Ernst and Sophia to fall to the bottom in Britain, which originally made Ernst very angry, and now Karl wants to uncover this scar naturally makes Ernst angry.

Ernst's action caused an exclamation from the people around him, and Carl, who came back to his senses, naturally did not want to suffer this loss in vain, so Karl immediately swung his fists at Ernst.

As the two fought, the scene was immediately in chaos, and Karl and Ernst's entourage hurriedly rushed over to try to pull the two apart, but the two were already red-eyed, and they dragged each other tightly to each other, and from time to time they kicked each other while everyone was unprepared.

The guards on both sides not only did not pull their master away, but were beaten many times for no reason, and as Carl's eye socket was inadvertently smashed by an Englishman's arm, Carl's attendant immediately changed from trying to pull his master away to punching and kicking at the British.

The good ball was completely messed up, this time Carl and Ernst brought a group of escorts into the ball, and now with the conflict between the two sides, the number of people involved is also increasing, and then it actually turned into a scene of a collective fight between Austrians and British in the ball, which is really laughable.

Christine, the culprit, stood on the edge of the railing on the second floor, looking at the group of shelves in the hall, not only did not get angry but showed a smile, while Anna, who was standing next to her, looked very anxious.

You must know that Carl is a very promising young man in this generation, the intelligent Carl not only has excellent grades in the military academy, but also treats people very kindly, and is known as the rising star of the Habsburgs, and now how can Anna stand watching her younger brother being bullied by the British.

"Horn, let the two princes pull away!"

"Your Royal Highness, this, the status of the two princes is very noble, if we hurt one of them, it will be a big trouble!"

During William and Buel's trip to Hanover, Hound, the deputy governor of the royal family, carried the burden on his shoulders.

"Go, I command you as a queen!

If Prince Karl gets hurt in any way, I'll let you fuck off immediately!

” Eventually, Hound obeyed Anna's orders, and he raised his head to signal to the Prussian guards guarding the perimeter of the hall, and then heard only a whistle, and hundreds of Guards soldiers rushed into the hall to forcibly separate the British and Austrians.

And just as he was pulled away, Ernst's mouth shouted: "Karl, I'm going to duel with you, you bastard who deserves to go to hell, you think it's great to have a queen's sister, and I'm going to make the Habsburgs pay!"

Karl, who had been pulled away, was half-crouching on the ground panting, but as soon as he heard Ernst's provocation, Karl immediately rushed again, but fortunately he was held back by two Prussian guards "Ernst, you have the ability, tomorrow we will duel!

I'm still afraid that you won't make it!
