Versailles Wild Rose

Abigail looked at him in surprise.

Claude raised his forehead, what does the earl mean?

"Thank you. My sister will never need to use a dagger, I will protect her."

Renio disagreed, "Instead of putting your own safety in the hands of others, it is better to improve your self-protection ability. Do you think so, miss?"

Abigail nodded, "You're right. But I thought you would give me cloth, lace and jewels instead of a dagger."

He smiled slightly, "You are not short of clothes, lace and jewelry. Tell me what you like, as long as there is something in this world, I will definitely find it and give it to you."

so cocky and confident

"Clothing and lace can be bought with money, but precious gemstones are not necessarily bought with money. Gemstones are nothing but minerals, but they are one of the most beautiful things in the world. I want a world that you think the most beautiful mineral in the world."

Renio thought for a while, "I understand. But it may take a long time for this gift to be given to you."

"I am patient, how about you?"

He laughed again, "I'm also very patient."

He bowed slightly to the Baburion brothers and sisters, "Please allow me to take my leave, miss."

Having a beautiful younger sister is something to be proud of, but if it is too popular, the older brother will also worry.

Neither His Majesty nor His Highness can be fooled casually. The Earl of Testeran seems to be very shrewd, and it is not easy to dismiss casually.

Claude sent Abigail back to Anna in Austria.At lunch, the siblings were lucky enough to be tucked into the dining table again.

They were only the children of the earl, so they were not eligible to attend the luncheon, but the king specifically asked to arrange seats for the Barberion brothers and sisters, and the head of the protocol department who was in charge of arranging the seats had no choice but to obey.

Feasting is also fun.

Before the official banquet, the court poet first recited the poems praising the king. The purpose is to praise the king in the world.This is the most basic step in consolidating the concept of "divine right of kings" and "monarch marketing".

Then the king raised his glass and praised God; the guests also raised their glasses and praised the king.This is the signal to officially start eating.

Abigail moved her mouth accordingly, which was a little lacking in awe.

French cuisine is now a model of gourmet food that is delicious in color, flavor and taste, and the banquet in the palace is the highest expression of French food.The banquet in this era does not serve dishes one by one in turn, but puts them all on the table at once. This way of serving food is a test of the kitchen's food delivery process, so it is impossible to have all hot dishes, and there will be a lot of cold dishes.The cold dishes are served first, and after the arrangement is complete, a hot main course is served at the end, usually roast meat, a whole roasted suckling pig, roasted goose and roasted duck; on the main table of the king is a roasted peacock decorated with peacock tail feathers.

The secret of banquets in the palace is to grab what you want to eat.Claude was not polite at all. He rushed to cut a large piece of roast suckling pig's hindquarters at the first time, then poked a large group of hindquarters precisely, cut the lean meat into small pieces, and put them in the A Bigger's plate.

She loved hot chocolate, and Claude gave her his own, and he took her wine.

Abigail is happy to have an older brother.

After the banquet, Abigail accompanied Austrian Anna back to the bedroom to rest.

The Queen Mother is getting old, and she often feels mentally weak and not in good health.This is a common problem among aristocratic women, eating too much and exercising too little.For the queen mother, the greatest amount of exercise is to take a walk in the garden.

"You young people, you should go and play by yourself." I just scolded Abigail last night, and now Austrian Anna is very pleasant again, "You go and take Claude to familiarize yourself with the palace. A private banquet with Captain Ang, and d'Artagnan will entertain you well."

"Thank you, Your Majesty. Would you like to sleep for a while?"

"I want to take a nap. You go," Austrian Anna touched her face. "As for Louis, if he wants to go to you, you have to treat him well and don't be too willful, okay? This isn't the Queen Mother giving you an order, It was a mother's request."

"I will." She lowered her eyes.

Anna of Austria seldom spoke to Abigail in a commanding tone. That was because she was the mother of the king, and no one would disobey her orders.Just like she is using a pleading tone now, but Abigail can't really take it as the queen mother "pleading" her.

The king soon sent for Abigail.

The attendants took her directly to the king's bedroom.

In fact, she rarely went to the king's bedroom, and every time she went, she must accompany Anna of Austria.

Walk through the hallway, between the richly decorated walls.Oil paintings, porcelain, gold and silver utensils, mirrors, silver candlesticks, carved furniture, each piece is an antique for later generations.

Louis had taken off his outer frock coat and was wearing only a white shirt and a long embroidered vest.

Seeing her come in, he glanced at her lightly, "You haven't changed your skirt yet."

"I'm going to show Claude a tour of the palace."

"He's going to visit the whole palace in the future, so he doesn't have to visit today. Come here," he beckoned, beckoning her to walk in front of him, "let me see you."

She walked up to him.

He looked at her for a moment, then bent down and kissed her.

He is a master kisser, unlike Philip, who is still too immature.For things like kissing, you need to compare to know who kisses better, and you need to have more experience with the other party to have a better experience.

Not only an activity of exchanging saliva, a kiss represents a lot. If it is only to solve physiological needs, then only a certain organ is needed, and a kiss shows love.

A kiss that is "good enough" will make your heart beat faster and your face flushed, and you just want to drag the other person into bed quickly.

After kissing for a long time, Louis said with a little dissatisfaction, "You don't know how to kiss yet, you're so stupid."

"I haven't kissed many people like you." She was very unconvinced.

"Do you like me to kiss you? Is it much better than Philip?"

Childish, she rolled her eyes in her heart and even kissed, and she wanted to decide the outcome with her younger brother.

"good."

"Say who's okay"

"saying you."

He laughed, "Is it just okay?"

He put one arm around her waist, and pulled down one side of her neckline with the other hand, "How did you feel last night?"

"Do you have any strange hobbies?" This guy must have some ulterior hobbies

"what"

"Why do you want to know what my first night feels like? Since you are so interested, why do you want others to teach me to be a woman? Do you have any misunderstanding of your own abilities? Or do you think you may not be gentle enough?"

"I don't know what you're talking about. Is Philip very gentle? I thought he wasn't interested in women."

"If he's really not interested in women, it's you and Her Majesty the Queen Mother who should be worried."

He smiled, "Today is my birthday, please stay with me for a while."

Well, birthdays are the biggest.

"Just to accompany you?"

"Of course." He pulled her to the bed, pushed her to lie on the bed, and lowered the curtain, "Look, the advantage of this kind of four-poster bed is that after the curtain is lowered, it is a closed small room."

He lifted the curtain and got into bed, "Philip and I used to hide on the bed when we were young, and the maids couldn't find us."

"You and Philip are very friendly."

He smiled and raised his eyebrows, "When he was young, he didn't have the concept of a monarch and his ministers. After all, he was too young. Although we would worry about our lives and safety at that time, it seemed that many times, we were happier than now."

Then he sighed.

"Why are you sighing? Today you are 20 years old, shouldn't you be happy?"

"I'm happy, so I can't scold you or beat you up for what you did last night."

She whispered "Are you mad?"

"A little angry. But that's my brother, what can I do with him and you, Abby, you are really bad."

She turned away shyly.

"Does it still hurt?"

"A little bit." The atmosphere was a little weird.

"It will hurt for a few days"

"It's funny, how did I know it would hurt for a few days?"

"There are no secrets in the palace, Abby, you'd better not go to Philip's room again."

She didn't answer.

"My tolerance has a limit. I will not and cannot tolerate Philip forever. As for you, dear lady, you will soon be lying in my bed, and then you will not be allowed to lie under another man." gone."

megalomaniac wait and see

Her hair was messed up, and she didn't ask the king's maid, Carol, to come in to comb her hair. She simply combed it a few times, and left the king's bedroom with her hair loose.

Back in her room, the maid Mary was staring at a pile of gift boxes in a daze.

"What's all this?" Abigail asked in surprise.

"These were sent by His Majesty." Mary hurriedly pointed to several boxes and said, "The ones over here were sent by His Majesty, and this was sent by Captain D'Artagnan. These boxes It was sent by Count De Testlan."

Are there still lots of presents?

"Have you opened it?"

"No, miss, you are not here, I will not open your things casually."

"Then we can come and open presents now." What a joy to open presents

Unwrap the gift from Louis first.

Yesterday he sent someone to send a necklace of coral beads, which she is wearing today.Today I sent several pieces of unmatched jewelry, a uniform round white pearl necklace the size of a little finger, with a large yellow gemstone pendant; diamonds, a larger sapphire in the pendant; a star brooch in silver paved with diamonds; a rosette brooch with pearls and diamonds in an egg-shaped sapphire; a small swan barrette in silver paved with diamonds, The swan's eye is a pink gemstone; two pairs of sapphire and pearl earrings; a sapphire and diamond bracelet.

Everything is beautiful and shiny.

Of course I am very happy to receive such precious jewelry.In this era, because crown-shaped headgear was not yet popular, the most expensive jewelry was necklaces and large brooches.Baroque jewelry is as gorgeous as it can be. Colored gemstones are widely used. Diamonds are not expensive in this era, and small diamonds and broken diamonds are also widely used. In addition, the cutting process has just become popular. , The newly made jewelry is all shiny and shiny.

At this time, she was worried that she didn't have a jewelry box big enough, and she really wanted to lock the room.
