Chapter 723: The princess is in trouble


This is actually the same as the assessment of the officials of the ancient dynasties in the East of China, and there is also an assessment department in the Prussian government, but William sent Horn to investigate this time, so Horn brought the investigation materials of the Royal Intelligence Department.

William doted on Christianie, this favor is more like a father's favor for his daughter, not to mention that William's dowry to Christianine is a large Western Lithuania, if Prussia is the eastern barrier of Lithuania into the hands of a mediocre person, William really can't believe what will happen next.

"Horn, what do you think of this man?"

Hearing William's question to himself, Horn was a little puzzled, but he didn't know what the Neville that William investigated was, and he didn't know whether this Neville had offended William, and after the investigation by the Royal Intelligence Department, Horn also knew that this Neville was actually involved with Christine, and this relationship was obviously not a normal relationship between the princess and the guard.

In such a situation, how could he talk nonsense.

So Horn says: "Your Highness, this Neville can only be regarded as ordinary, and besides, a small city guard, the minister also knows what to say!"

Horn kicked the ball out of the way of William.

However, Horn's remarks mentioned Neville with a small guard instead, which made William a little dissatisfied with Neville.

Yes, Neville was a soldier for five years, and finally got a squad leader position by virtue of his years.

In the eyes of a Prussian bigwig, isn't a squad leader and an ordinary soldier the same?

And listen to the meaning of Horn's words, a small city guard.

Imagine if William married his favorite sister to Neville, what would the Prussian nobles think of the Hohenzollern royal family?

After investigating, Horn is not unaware of the relationship between Kristini and Neville, and in this case, Horn still uses this adjective, which shows that Horn's attitude is biased.

"Hornder.

Call me Christianie!

” William said to Horn with a bad face.

And when Horn went to invite Christine on William's orders, he was disappointed because Christine was not in the dormitory.

She slipped out again.

At this moment, in the Haske neighborhood of Brandenburg, at Neville's home, Christine is talking to Neville's mother.

Neville's home is small.

Combined with Neville's current little tailor's shop, it's only about thirty square meters.

This is still Neville's father's legacy, after all, Brandenburg is the capital of Prussia, and it is not an exaggeration to say that the land price is expensive.

Although the Haske neighborhood is a low-level residential area in Brandenburg, its land price has also reached a very considerable level.

Neville's mother was named Lisa, and after Neville's father died, Mrs.

Lisa relied on a small tailor's shop of less than ten square meters to pull Neville to grow up.

The years have left a deep mark on Lady Lisa's forehead, and although she is in her early forties, she looks to be in her fifties.

For a low-level person who relies on labor all day in exchange for a meager salary.

They don't care about any maintenance.

"Aunt Lisa, you see, this is a gift I have brought you.

This is my handpick, do you like it!

” To be honest, for the little girl named Christine in front of her, Lady Lisa still likes it very much.

When Neville first brought the little girl into the house, although the little girl was not very well dressed, Lisa could tell that the little girl was well educated.

And after coming to the house, Cristini was not dissatisfied with the clutter and crowding in Neville's house, and even when Lisa was busy, the little girl was still helping on the side, although sometimes she seemed flustered, and she was still unhelpful, but Lisa still loved the lively and lovely Cristinian very much.

And after that, Christine became a frequent visitor to Neville's house, and from time to time would bring some inexpensive but delicate gifts to Lady Lisa.

Despite Lady Lisa's repeated refusals, Cristini forced the gift to Neville.

"Christine, every time you come to bring gifts, we don't have anything for you at home, it's really embarrassing for me, so, I have here a hairpin left by Neville's father, I'll give it to you, okay!"

So saying, Lady Lisa went to a modest room behind the tailor's shop, and took a hairpin from a more delicate box.

This hairpin is arguably the most valuable item in Neville's family, and it was captured from the home of a minor nobleman during a battle by Neville's father when he was serving in the Prussian army.

"This, how can I ask for it, this gift is too valuable!"

Although this hairpin is completely incomparable to the jewelry of Christine in the palace, this hairpin is also made of pure gold, and Christine, who already knows Neville's family well, naturally knows what this pure gold hairpin means to this poor family.

But Christine was not allowed to refuse, Lisa put a hairpin on Christine's head, looking at Christine, Lisa was more and more satisfied, but in addition to being satisfied, she was also sighing, because she knew that although Christine was not necessarily born in a rich and wealthy family, it can be seen from the fact that a little girl can give her some small gifts every time, Christine's family is still passable.

And Lisa also knows that Christine likes Neville, but Lisa has no idea whether the two can succeed or not, so she can only pray that Neville and this lively little girl can go to the end.

And just as Lisa and Christine were talking, a woman came to the door.

"Lisa.

Look at the clothes you gave my tailor last time!

If you can't do such a small thing, who will come to your house to do business in the future!

” The woman was a loud voice, and she shouted loudly as soon as she stepped through the small door of the tailor's shop.

Hear someone calling their name.

Lisa quickly stood up, and when she saw the woman in front of her clearly, a smile quickly appeared on her face and she said cautiously: "Mrs.

Durand, I don't know why you're here, quick, please take a seat!"

What I didn't expect was that just after Lisa finished speaking.

The Durand looked at her and the things in the tailor's shop with disgust, and then said in a very disdainful tone: "Look at it, it's here.

Let me sit down!

Don't say anything more, you look at this dress for yourself, last time I just asked you to change your waistline, but I didn't expect it to be broken for me.

I bought this dress at a great price.

Can you afford it?

Hum!

” This Mrs.

Durand's tone is very small, and even in this situation, Lisa still smiled with a smile on her face: "How come, I'll take a look at the clothes first, and I'll change them for you if I'm not satisfied!"

As she spoke, Lisa conveniently picked up the clothes that Durand had thrown on the table and looked at them carefully.

After a while, Lisa, who relied on her craft to eat, noticed a problem.

At the end of the eighteenth century, European women were always beautiful with thin waists.

Therefore, they often wear belts around their waists inside their clothes, and Mrs.

Durand can see this dress she brought.

The needlework of the garment exploded all at once from the waist, which means that the garment was completely broken.

Looking at Mrs.

Duland's size, Lisa was sure of what she was thinking, so she smiled and said: "Mrs.

Durand, it's not my bad workmanship to blame for the breakage of this dress, it's broken, and it has nothing to do with sewing!

I guess on the day your clothes broke, you must have no drawstrings."

And just after Lisa's words were finished, Mrs.

Duland, who looked a little fat, said angrily: "You mean the clothes are broken because I'm too fat?

Okay, you Lisa, I didn't expect it, you actually scolded people without swearing, who doesn't know in the entire Hasker neighborhood, my body is one of the best here!

” Faced with Mrs.

Durand, who was like an enraged lioness, even though Lisa's face was full of grievances, she could only curry favor with grievances.

But at this time, a very discordant scene appeared, and Christine, who was standing on the side, burst out laughing, which also attracted the attention of Mrs.

Duland.

"Who are you, why did you appear here, what are you laughing at, am I wrong, don't think that you are thin and good, little girl, you know a fart!"

Hearing that Mrs.

Durand was targeting herself, Christine was very upset, and joked, Christine, who was treated like a princess in the past, when did anyone dare to point fingers in front of her, is this tired and crooked!

"It makes sense for me to laugh, you are fat and blame other people's bad craftsmanship, I think you are just messing around!"

In fact, this dress is just as Lisa said, it was that Mrs.

Durand was uncomfortable with the belt that day, so she didn't wear the belt, and the action was a little big, and the waist of the dress was torn at once.

But how could Mrs.

Durand tell the truth of the matter at this moment, and the fact that Christine was younger and prettier than her, made her even more angry.

"Okay, Lisa, this little girl is your person, I think it's a wild girl, look at what it looks like, and don't want to see your tailor shop, I'll let people seal your house immediately!"

"This, Mrs.

Duland, no, so let's do it, I lost the clothes, you see how much it is" Hearing that Durand was going to let people seal her tailor shop, Lisa was naturally panicked.

Although Neville is now a soldier in the army, Neville's salary is not much.

The Prussian salary was divided into two parts, in modern parlance, one part was the salary and the other was the allowance, and the soldiers in the Prussian regular division field army were paid very highly, on the one hand, their wages were higher, and on the other hand, their allowances were much higher than those of the city defense army like Neville.

Although Neville's allowance is enough for the two members of the family to live on, but for Mrs.

Lisa, Neville's military salary is only enough for the family's expenses, and it is not enough when something happens, not to mention, Neville is not married yet, if he gets married in the future.

Then the overhead will definitely be greater.

Hearing that Lisa was willing to make amends, Mrs.

Durand put a smug smile on her face and said: "I think so, this is the dress I bought for fifty gold marks.

Now I've been wearing it for a while, you can just give me forty-nine gold marks, you see?

” As soon as she heard that Mrs.

Durand actually asked for nine gold marks, Lisa panicked.

You must know that Neville's monthly salary is only 20 gold marks, and now Durand is actually 49 gold marks as soon as he opens his mouth, which is equivalent to the income of this small family for more than two months.

"Mrs.

Duland, that's just too much.

You have mercy, I only have 20 gold marks now, you can see if 20 gold marks will work."

"Less and I'm here to ink.

Either give the money now, or you just wait for this little shop to be blocked!

” Mrs.

Durand said proudly.

The reason why Mrs.

Durand has so much courage to close the tailor's shop.

The reason is because her husband is a sheriff in the Haske neighborhood.

It doesn't matter what country it is.

Civilians are afraid of people with official characters, and the reason is that these officials, even the most insignificant ones, can easily affect their lives.

Just like Mrs.

Duland's husband, although her husband is only a sheriff in a neighborhood, which is converted into a police squad leader, but if he really has a hard time with Lisa, then an excuse can keep Lisa's small tailor's shop closed for a few days.

The reason, it's simple.

An excuse to harbor a criminal is enough.

"Why are you!

Aunt Lisa eats by skill, and besides, who gave you the right to seal people's doors!

What kind of aristocratic lady do you think you are!

” At this moment, Christine, who had long been indignant, immediately spoke.

"Okay, this wild girl, there are things that are not raised by mothers, and you dare to scold me here, believe it or not, I will let people arrest you and eat a few days in prison!"

"You dare!

I think you're tired and crooked, dare to scold me!

” Faced with Mrs.

Duland's threat, Cristini immediately opened her mouth and scolded.

"Okay, I'll go and call someone, don't leave if you have the ability!"

As she spoke, the angry Mrs.

Durand threw off her clothes and walked out of the small tailor's shop, as if she had gone to call someone.

And Lisa, who had just reacted, immediately said to Cristine: "Christine, go quickly, don't worry about it here, that Mrs.

Durand's husband is the sheriff here, why do you bother to embarrass her, let's go!"

"It's okay, Aunt Lisa, if I leave, you'll be unlucky, so I won't leave!"

Christine was resolute, and although Lisa repeatedly advised her to leave quickly, Du Li had no intention of leaving.

Ten minutes later, Mrs.

Durand, her husband, and several men came to Lisa's shop.

When the men walked into the shop and saw Christianie, their eyes lit up.

You must know that the princesses of the royal family, generally speaking, will not be ugly, after all, the genes on their bodies have been improved for hundreds of years, just imagine how a king can marry an ugly girl, from generation to generation, how can the descendants of the royal family grow ugly, of course, the situation of genetic mutation is not impossible, but the probability is very small.

And Christine has received the education of a princess since she was a child, in this case, whether it is appearance or temperament, it is first-class, how can you not make the eyes of these low-level people in the Haske neighborhood shine.

Mrs.

Durand's husband came back to his senses after a moment's pause, and then said to Christine with a blank face: "This lady, I suspect that you have something to do with a theft, please come with me immediately!"

As he spoke, Mrs.

Duland's husband was about to forcibly pull Cristinne, and the men behind him showed a ** smile.

"Hmph, you don't have evidence, why should you let me go with you, and you dare to lie to me, don't you have a head!"

If Christine wore her princess service, I am afraid that Mrs.

Duland's husband would really have to stop.

But don't forget, they were now in Lisa's little tailor's shop, and they could easily ask for a sheriff; How could a powerful man with a head end up in this messy tailor's shop?

Therefore, Mrs.

Duland's husband did not stop, but grabbed Christine's hand and laughed treacherously: "I said this young lady, you should think about yourself obediently!"

"Let Christine go, or I'll fight with you!"

At some point, Lisa came to Christine's side with a pair of scissors in her hand and yelled at Mrs.

Duland's husband.

But in the face of Lisa's threat, the man didn't care at all.

"Let this old fellow be honest, and in addition, I declare in my capacity as a sheriff that this tailor shop has evidence of the thief's guilt, and you will search me immediately!"

Mrs.

Durand's husband said to the men behind him who looked more like ruffians, and at the hearing of his order, they immediately began to rummage in the tailor's shop with joy, and of course they were filled with something that looked good.

"Stop, you guys, or I want all of you to die!"

Tears were already streaming from Christine's eyes, her hands had been grabbed, and there was some sadness in her eyes, but more anger in her eyes.

"Little girl, don't scream, it's useless for you to call, haha!"
