The king went out for a parade in the royal carriage, so she asked for leave from Austrian Anna, hurried out of the palace with Claude, and went to watch from the good position occupied by the servants on the Champs Elysees.

The king's birthday celebration is not every year, just like Louis said, he is very poor and it is his 20th birthday this year, so he can finally hold a grand birthday celebration.

Claude bought her macarons and honey water, carefully protecting her from being crowded.Barberion and his son brought 6 servants from home, because they decided to come to Paris on a temporary basis and did not rent a hotel room, or the Knight of Lorraine helped Claude find a place, and the 6 servants crowded into two simple attics , complaining all day long.

"What happened last night?" After leaving the Louvre, Claude finally had time to ask her.

"It's nothing unimportant." She played sloppy with a guilty conscience.

"It alarmed Her Majesty the Queen Mother, and you still said it's nothing?" Claude looked at her amusedly, "Is it because of Your Majesty, or because of Your Highness?"

"Because of them."

Claude was frightened, "What the hell did you do?"

"It's just..." She was still a little shy in front of her brother, "The one between me and His Highness last night, anyway, it was the first time for a woman."

Claude was stunned, "God, Your Majesty will definitely be furious."

"He's weird, just get angry if you're angry, and I can't help it."

"Be careful not to really anger His Majesty." He looked at his sister warningly, "The king's favor comes quickly and disappears quickly. Isn't he now passionately in love with Miss de la Vallière?"

"He has too much love," she snorted.

Last night, the brothers of the king had a violent fight, which cannot be hidden from Anna of Austria. The queen mother called for the king and his brother to her bedroom, and then called for Abigail.

Anna of Austria scolded Philip and Abigail severely, but took Louis lightly.

At that time, Abigail was very embarrassed and felt like a little daughter-in-law who was caught by her mother-in-law and scolded severely. Although, her status was not qualified to be a real daughter-in-law.

In fact, Anna of Austria couldn't do anything to her sons, so she just educated her and asked her to choose one, either Louis or Philip.

As a result, Louis was very proud, "Mother, you don't need to make her think clearly now, I want her to fall in love with me sincerely, not your order, nor my order."

Well, he does have the right to be so proud.

Abigail pretended to be shy, keeping her head down obediently.

When she left the Queen Mother's bedroom, she peeked at Philip, and saw that Philip was also peeking at her, with a smug look on his face, as if he was so happy that he could finally give Louis a hard blow.

They're all little kids

But, I'm really proud of it.

Louis has many "loves", but being able to fight with "dear brother" for her has fully demonstrated that she is a little different in his heart.

She didn't sleep well last night, causing her to yawn a lot now.Claude felt sorry for her, and asked her how she was doing, the first time for a girl, it always hurts, will it hurt badly.

"It doesn't hurt too much. I took a shower in the morning and it's much better." There is nothing bad to say to her brother. She and her brother are 11 years apart. When he is at home, he always takes her to play and buys things for her. He loves her very much.Father? Anyway, that's it, they all have no expectations for their father, and they don't have any feelings for him.

Father is rarely at home, and it is said that he has hooked up with the current countess for a long time.He also has little affection for his two illegitimate daughters and hardly ever visits them.Abigail and her older sister Rosalina "met" two half-sisters.Because the half-sisters are not the daughters of the earls, they are only married to the sons of knights.There are distinctions between inheritable and non-inheritable knights. The son of a knight who cannot inherit the title of "knight" is a commoner.

The half-sisters are nothing like moths, and they are not close to their brothers and sisters, they are just ordinary passers-by.

This era still belongs to the era of feudal monarchs, and it is still very important to have a male heir in the family. Abigail knew from a young age that she had to deal with her brother, who fortunately was also a good brother, and that was enough.

After all, Claude is a 27-year-old adult man. He knows a lot, so he is very worried, "If you are pregnant with a child, you must give birth to it well. It is best to let His Highness recognize the child."

Abigail stunned, 'kid'

"You don't think so"

"Just once, it won't be that bad"

"Look at what you said." He glared at her. "Girls always want to marry and have children, but if your lover is Your Highness, it doesn't make any difference whether you marry or not. If Your Highness decides to let you marry someone else, you have to remember Choose an old man with a title, the kind who can’t even fart, you don’t have to sleep with your husband. In the future, His Highness will recognize your children, and they will also have their own title. In this way, even if you leave His Highness in the future, you can still live. Very good."

this is the truth

It can't be said that Claude's thinking is too realistic, but this is the generally accepted routine of royal mistresses.He couldn't think and didn't dare to think that there was another way to go.

very boring

She pressed her belly anxiously, could it be so accurate? She got caught once. She didn't want to have a baby so early, she was still a baby.

The royal carriage is coming.

Today the weather is fine and the wind is clear.The king sat in an open carriage, smiling and waving to his subjects all the way; the crowd responded with warm applause and cheers, some of which were discordant, shouting "Down with the king".

The people of Paris should remember the previous French Civil War.

For the king, some memories are very bad. I hope to forget it quickly. Several "Stone Fronter Movements" once forced the little king, who was only a teenager at the time, to escape from Paris.

So this is one of the reasons why Louis has never liked Paris very much.

A few years later, he completely moved the court and government affairs center to Versailles.

Versailles.

To leave an eternal imprint on the heart of the amorous king, of course a more ingenious method must be chosen.

Louis XIV claimed to be Apollo, the sun god, and she could also call herself Aphrodite, the goddess of love and beauty. Large scale murals and other statues of height gods were built, and she must have her name in the Palace of Versailles.

Thinking about it this way is more than flattering, it is simply ambitious and has a lot of fighting spirit

On the carriage back to the palace, Abigail asked, "If a super luxurious and super large palace is about to be built in a certain place, how can our family get a project or a supplier of a certain type of building materials?"

"Does Your Majesty have any plans for a large-scale project?"

"It's not His Majesty's, that's what I'm asking. I'm thinking that there are suppliers for almost any item in the palace, fruit candle fabrics, and even buttons have a special supplier, so building a villa or palace must require more The supplier of the project. Are there any building materials produced by our house?"

Claude smiled, "It's not that easy to be a supplier of building materials."

"That's right, it requires very professional talents. Then, food is a bulk consumable, and the food supply for craftsmen during the construction process alone is a large and long-lasting order."

"This can be considered. However, nobles don't need to do business. Doing business is the job of inferior people."

"You look for a reliable servant, you should have some cronies, then find someone who can do business, you just need to be the big boss."

"It's a little troublesome. Food suppliers may also face the problem of not being able to receive the account, and if there is any problem with the food, such as which noble person has diarrhea after dinner, this is very troublesome. Otherwise, you think those big Why do nobles leave these lucrative deals to commoner suppliers”

"Oh, you're right." She became annoyed, thinking that what she was thinking was still too naive and trivial.Think about it, after the "discovery" of the Indian subcontinent, how the country where gold and honey gems flowed on this land was plundered by Western powers. Several countries have established the "East India Company", using economic acumen and guns India plundered wantonly and made a lot of money.This is the way to get rich

All European countries do the same business in America, Asia and Africa, all of which are plundering. This is the primitive accumulation of capitalism.

Being an honest supplier earns a small amount of money; spending a lot of money to plunder foreign countries earns a lot of money, which is amazing wealth.

But it is really difficult for her to explain the truth of this clearly.

"Are you short of money?" Claude asked.

"There is no shortage of money, but there is no money either."

"Didn't you just earn 4 ecu"

"It's not easy to make tens of thousands of ecu at a time, and tens of thousands of ecu is not enough for a few years. You can't live in Paris with the same expenses as you can in Prince Condé's mansion. Where money is spent in Paris There are many, and the price is relatively high.”

He smiled, "You don't need to worry about it, the royal guard's allowance is more than you imagined, which is enough for living expenses. I can also play poker, and when I find a poker friend," he raised his eyebrows with a smile.

Claude's card skills are very high, and she learned her card skills from her brother.

Playing cards, it's boring if you don't have money. With his poker skills, he can win a little bit every week, which can be used to pay some extra expenses.His problem is that he is too cautious, only willing to win a little bit, and he is unwilling to win a large sum at once.

There is no need to worry too much about money, anyway, Versailles was not built in a day, so let's save it for later.

The carriage stopped at the gate of the Louvre, Claude got out of the carriage, turned around and helped her get off.

The brother and sister entered the palace gate.

Unexpectedly, in the corridor, I met Count Reignor de Testerin.

"Miss De Barberion." Reinho nodded slightly.

"Count De Testlan." The siblings returned the salute.

"You haven't told me, do you like the roses I gave you?"

"I don't like the color. I like dark purple roses."

"As you wish. I will send it to you tomorrow."

What he said was so sure, she was very curious, "Should I feel honored?"

Renio smiled, "I want to give you a dagger."

Strange. "dagger"

"You are good for a dagger. If someone disrespects you, you can use it to teach him a lesson. I can teach you how to use a dagger without hurting yourself."

The author has something to say, Brother Philip, I was wrong, I will dare to do it next time
