Versailles Wild Rose

There are not one or two women who want to climb into the king's bed. Among those who are eligible to come to the Louvre, fathers, husbands, and brothers want to send their daughters, wives, and sisters to the king's bed; women also want to be kings at least 90.00% mistress.Such was the common understanding in this day and age that an affair could be dishonorable, except to be the mistress of a king.

She drove away the previous "unimportant mistresses", and there will be a steady stream of newcomers. The king's love may come and go quickly, and he can't be expected to be so steadfast.He is still new to her now, but in the future, no one can say for sure.

However, who wants to think about 10 or 20 years from now?

She sneered.

The maid poured water and she took a shower.This time she poured the perfume into the bathtub, so that it would be a light fragrance, not so strong.

After taking a shower, I went to see Claude.

Claude's spirit is still sluggish, he is always sleeping, and he doesn't have much time to wake up.Gillan, the maid, wiped him, and Rosalina fed him.

Fortunately, the fever has subsided and the wound has begun to heal.The imperial doctor gave him herbal medicine, changed the dressing every day, kept it clean, continued to reduce the fever, and coupled with his good physical fitness, he has passed the most dangerous time period.

Common people in this era lived in great hardship. It was common for a family of more than a dozen people to live in a few small dilapidated wooden houses. The living conditions were poor, the air was dirty, and lack of food all the year round meant poor physical fitness and a low life expectancy.Barons and above are considered human beings, and only nobles can ensure sufficient intake of protein and animal fat. No matter how poor the nobles are, they only have cash flow difficulties, and there is no shortage of food, because there is food if there is land. In a famine year, the harvest is not good, and they can still go to rich relatives to eat for a few months.

Claude's physical fitness can be regarded as very good in later generations, so he can carry it down.

At this moment, Claude was awake, and Rosalina was talking to him. Seeing Abigail coming in, the brothers and sisters all smiled and called her.

"Come here, I'm talking about you."

"What about my children?"

"His Majesty the Queen Mother likes the girls very much, and left them to play there. Claude refused to leave his sister, so he also stayed." Rosalina was very happy. The Queen Mother looked very kind, and she liked children so much. I will definitely like Abigail's children in the future, after all, this is the Queen Mother's first grandchildren.Regardless of the princess of which country the king will marry in the future, Abigail will not be too bad if she is the biological mother of the king's eldest son.

Abigail didn't know what her sister was thinking, "Her Majesty the Queen Mother is getting old, and she is not in good spirits, and she has to take a nap in the afternoon. Let the servants go over and take them over later."

Rosalina hurriedly said, "The servants have talked back and forth, saying that the children are asleep. They usually take a nap at home, and I am going to pick them up. What time is it?"

"It's almost four o'clock."

"I'll go now." Rosalina hurried to the Queen Mother's bedroom with the maid.

"What did you two say about me?" Abigail sat down.

"Tell me how lucky you are."

She smiled. In the eyes of her brothers and sisters, she is so lucky to be loved by the king.

It can't be blamed for them thinking this way, but this kind of thinking is normal in this era.People may secretly laugh at the king's mistress, but in reality they all envy her instead.

"I'm talking to Rosalina, when will I tell my father"

"Don't tell him, or he will find a way to ask me for money again."

"Paris is not that far from Rouen. As long as you disclose the pregnancy, he will know soon."

"Then as late as possible." She frowned.

"Don't worry about him, he dare not do anything to you."

She snorted, "He dared to ask His Majesty for 50 yuan, I don't think there is anything he would not dare to do."

"When I recover, I will go back and take care of things at home."

"You should learn to be cruel."

He smiled, "Abigail, a person will change. His personality may not change, but his way of doing things will not always remain the same."

"Did you learn it from your colleagues?"

He laughed again, "Maybe."

"You should make peace with Louis."

"what"

"It's about balance. Louis is often too domineering, but you, my good brother, are too gentle."

"My dear sister, are you happy?"

"It's okay, overall, very happy."

"Come here." He moved in with difficulty, making room for a small space beside the bed.She sat down on the edge of the bed.

"I hope you will always be happy. Your Majesty treats you very well. If you want to keep your title and status, you can't be too willful."

"It's very contradictory. You want me to be happy, but you don't want me to be too self-willed. It's too difficult."

"You are a smart girl, you will find a way. I can protect His Majesty to the death for you."

She hurriedly said, "He has plenty of bodyguards, so there's no need for you to rush to kill him."

Claude fell asleep again.

Rosalina picked up the children and came back.

5-year-old Little Claude is dressed like a little gentleman today, with blond hair below his ears, a round face, and looks like Nicholas.The girls don't really look like their mothers, with eyes and eyebrows like Abigail's or grandmother's, and mouths like Nicholas.

Abigail thought that after Little Claude was born, Nicholas was very proud and felt that he was "very kind", so probably all men had the same idea.

Rosalina married at 20, gave birth to little Claude at 21, then had a stillborn baby and then twins.

The mother also gave birth to 11 children in 5 years.

Then she thought of a problem. When her mother gave birth to Claude, she was 29 and a half years old and almost 30 years old. She shouldn't be married until she was 28 years old.She didn't think about this problem before, because she didn't go out very much, so she rarely came into contact with those noble families outside.In fact, most noble girls get married between the ages of 16 and 22, and royal girls get married earlier.Mother's marriage age is too late, not normal.

My mother is the same age as Austrian Anna, even if she married later, she should be married at 245.

It is unlikely that Claude or Rosalina will get an answer to this question. She can ask d'Artagnan, he must know.

She sent someone to find d'Artagnan, who was not in the palace, and it took more than an hour to see her.

"Hello miss, you are looking for me"

"Yes, Captain. Please take a seat." Louis hadn't come back yet, so she borrowed his waiting room.

She was very serious, and he also took it seriously, "It seems that your question is not easy to answer."

Abigail smiled, "It's not something secret, it's my mother, do you remember her?"

D'Artagnan was slightly taken aback, and quickly replied, "I remember, Miss Donna Amelia Oropesa."

"She was married several times"

D'Artagnan said unnaturally, "Legal marriage, once."

Interesting, does that mean that there are illegal marriages that are not legal, without the king's permission.Perhaps because of this, Louis XIII betrothed her to an unsuitable candidate.

"What about her illegitimate marriage?"

"It's another Spanish nobleman, the bodyguard of Her Majesty the Queen Mother."

"I don't understand. She just needs to ask the king's permission. Why?"

"Probably because they shouldn't be married."

"I don't understand. Is it because the man is from a hostile family? Or I really can't think of it. It can't be the Duke of Orleans, right? Oh, I was wrong, the Duke of Orleans is not a Spaniard."

D'Artagnan tried to change the subject, "Thirty years have passed since this incident. That man has long passed away, and your mother has also passed away. You should not pursue the past."

"Did she have a child with that man?"

"Have."

Abigail was amazed, "Boy or girl, I have a brother or sister"

"It's a girl, sent back to Spain."

"So, I have a Spanish sister. Do you know she's alive?"

"I don't know much about that. But the Spanish mission will arrive in Paris before Christmas. You can ask someone from the mission."

dinner.

"Do you know that d'Artagnan said that my mother had a child before, but you can't tell Her Majesty the Queen Mother about this, maybe she doesn't want me to know about it."

"I won't tell her. What did you play today"

"Slept for a while, it was too hot in the room, sweated, bathed, changed, talked to Claude a little, played with the children a little. But Rosalina is afraid of the girls Kick me, don't let me hold them. Have you seen the twins and Cloud, do you like them?"

"Too noisy."

It's really true.

"The children were too tired from playing, so they went back early. Louie, is my sister beautiful?"

Louis thought for a while, "It's very beautiful, but you don't look like her very much."

"I am more like a mother. My mother is beautiful. D'Artagnan said that the Spanish mission will arrive in Paris before Christmas. I would like to ask you to ask if anyone knows my Spanish sister."

"what is her name"

"Not sure, I should use my mother's maiden name, Oropesa."

"Bangtang, write it down." Louis was curious, "Why do you want to find her?"

"I don't know, probably because of curiosity. Mother doesn't seem to be a very good girl either." Miss Amelia was very mysterious.

Claude also expressed surprise at his mother's illegal marriage, "But I thought about it before. When my mother married my father, she was almost 29 years old. There are very few women who get married for the first time at the age of 29, but I I thought it might be her ex-husband died, so"

What he thought was right, the "ex-husband" was indeed dead.

The father was not good to the mother, which may also have something to do with her first marriage.

"Maybe I can go back and ask my father."

"Tell him that I want to ask, and he dare not not answer."

The author has something to say that according to the types summarized in The Art of Seduction, Abigail should be a "dream lover" type and a "demon girl" type. ,,
