[Comprehensive] Mother's Responsibility

Ferdinand heard what Catherine meant. There were two main points. First, my daughter is young, and she will not be allowed to marry in the short term; second, my son-in-law is not allowed to have a lover.

After a moment of deep thought, he bowed to Catherine, and then said: "Ma'am, I think I can do what you said. It's true that admiring someone should not only adore her beautiful face, but more importantly, her long life. Longing for a sincere relationship, longing for my wife to be faithful to me, I am looking forward to the kind of married life described in Madam's book, so Madam, I think I can do without a lover, or I can wait for Miss Anne for two years, I hope you will give me a chance to be part of the family."

Speaking of this, what else can Catherine say?It's just an opportunity, and it's not about giving her daughter to her, so she nodded.

The moment Catherine nodded, a charming smile appeared on Ferdinand's face.

"What? Is that young man so satisfying to you?" After Ferdinand left, Marquis Christian looked at Catherine looking at the place where he left, feeling jealous immediately.

Catherine leaned against him, raised her head and pressed a kiss on his resolute chin. Ever since she knew she didn't like beards, this man had never grown a beard again. He was the only one who tolerated and loved him so much in his past and present lives. So Catherine looked at him affectionately and said, "Carl, I suddenly found that I love you so deeply that I don't want you to leave my side even for a moment."

"Honorable Duchess, your fragrant lips always spit out words that make me intoxicated. It is the greatest honor in my life to be loved by you. Catherine, I love you too, deeply in love with you." Christian The Marquis hugged Catherine in satisfaction, and murmured happily.

When Ferdinand returned to his residence and heard that the king had summoned him, he entered the palace. As a result, Franz II looked at Ferdinand who had applied for pleasure, raised his eyebrows, and asked, "My dear brother, what is it?" Makes you so happy."

Naturally, Ferdinand knew how to protect Anne's reputation, so he just smiled and said, "In such a beautiful weather, wouldn't it be a pleasure to ride a galloping horse?

"Riding a horse is indeed a pleasant thing, but dear brother, you seem to have forgotten one thing. Our cousin, the beautiful and lovely Princess Louisa, has been waiting for you at your mansion all day. Shouldn't you express Do you want to apologize?" Franz II said with a smile when he heard the words.

Ferdinand looked at his brother in surprise, and exaggeratedly fell on the chair, and said in pain: "Dear Franz, please forgive me! Have you decided to marry Princess Teresa? Is it?"

"My dear brother, you seem to have underestimated your charm. You were the one Princess Luisa expressed her affection for at the beginning." Although Franz II didn't like the two cousins, he didn't hate them either.

"No!" Fernandi shook his head, looked at Franz II and said, "I think I need to go out and travel, my dear brother, I have no plans to get married at the moment, I am still young, I can't imagine myself with a woman What does it feel like to be tied together, marriage will make me lose my freedom, it will make me bound, dear brother, I love you, please grant your humble little brother a little wish, I will never be close Please marry me in [-], please!" Before Annie became an adult, he would never get involved with any woman, he knew that Lady Catherine was telling the truth, and if he dissatisfied her in one way, he might never get his beloved Annie is gone.

Seeing his resistance, Franz II shook his head slightly and said, "Fernandi, you are the Grand Duke of Tuscany in the Holy Roman Empire. You can't choose your lover as you like. Congress and aunt I have already written a letter, intending to marry the two princesses at the same time."

"Then let Karl marry him. He is not young anymore. He is 19 years old. He should consider marriage! Poor Ferdinand just wants to be free." Ferdinand betrayed his brother without hesitation, although he The relationship with my younger brother is actually much better than it appears on the surface, but if happiness is involved, then forget it!Then Karl's marriage will be carefully chosen by the cautious Franz.Princess Louisa should be a good choice, and her sister may make Franz change his prejudice against Karl.

Franz was always jealous of Karl, a younger brother who was very smart and loved by his parents since he was a child. He clearly remembered that when Karl said that he would lead the army of the Holy Roman Empire to become the most powerful army when he was a child, his father made a mistake. Say why he is not the eldest son.Even after his mother took him into consideration and adopted him to his uncle, Duke Albert Casimir of Cieschen, she still had a lot of dissatisfaction with him, especially his excellent performance after entering the army at the beginning of this year.

"Ferdinand, I think I have decided that you should do something for this country." Franz II looked at Ferdinand, who was playing with teacups, and said seriously.

Ferdinand knew that his country was on the verge of splitting, he knew that marriage was needed, and he also knew that if he had to choose, he would choose the country he loved deeply and the person he didn't love, but since Franz had decided to marry Teddy Cousin Lisa is gone, why do you want to marry Cousin Louisa yourself?

After looking at the young king with some disappointment, he left silently.

"Do you have anything to explain?" When Anne learned about Ferdinand's outing with Princess Louisa, she was very annoyed, and naturally she had a bad face when she saw him again.

Ferdinand was very happy when he saw Annie's anger, he smiled and said, "Can I just imagine that Anne has a little affection for me?"

Annie stared at him angrily, and said angrily, "Who would have any affection for you playboy?"

"Dear Anne, don't argue anymore, ask your heart, it already says it loves me." Although Ferdinand didn't understand what playboy meant, he knew it was not a good word, but he had seen Annie want to After leaving, he quickly explained: "Dear Anne, don't be angry, God can assure you of my loyalty to you. I just accompanied Cousin Louisa to meet her lover."

"?" Annie looked at him in surprise, Princess Louisa has a lover, how is this possible?Love without parental consent before marriage is shameful.

Ferdinand shrugged and said innocently: "Marquis Brecht likes Cousin Louisa, they... um... Hugging at the racecourse showed me their determination to be together, so I am deeply sad... no, my happy blessing killed them."

Marquis Brecht?In Anne's mind, there is a chubby short man who is about the same height as herself. Princess Louisa will like him, dream!But seeing the complacency on the face of the man in front of her, Annie knew it was his fault.

Ferdinand originally didn't want to design his default fiancée to be with someone who has such a gap with him, but Princess Luisa is too clingy, and when the handsome husband he originally arranged has not yet arrived, he is really entangled There is no other way, thanks to Marquis Brecht, God knows what a good man he is!He actually loved Cousin Louisa so much, and when she was about to fall off the horse, he hugged her regardless of his own safety... Then no one thought that Cousin Louisa's clothes would be so fragile, and she opened them, causing Marquis Brecht's death. The lips just touched her beautiful body... It really has nothing to do with me, his arrangement didn't work, God has helped me, praise the Almighty Lord!

"Ferdinand, you are such a bad guy!" After hearing the whole story, Annie laughed with her eyes wide open, looked at Ferdinand and said with a smile.

Ferdinand looked tenderly at Annie's rosy cheeks after she smiled, and the happy look in her eyes, and murmured: "This bad guy loves you, my dear girl."

Annie glanced at him when she heard the words, bit her lips, and said suddenly with determination: "If you can do what my mother asks, I think... I don't hate you." After speaking, Annie took up her skirt and ran away.

Ferdinand looked at Anne's leaving back and taught his chief guard, proudly said: "She is so charming, are you right? I think that as long as you give up some things you don't need, you can get the most precious thing in the world." Pearl, so why not do this? So Tap, please don't arrange ladies too close to me in the future, my girl will not be happy."

Hearing that Napoleon and the Prince of Wales were also trying to attract the attention of his beloved girl, Ferdinand decisively invited Catherine and his party to visit his fief Tuscany.

And Catherine also agreed. After all, it seemed that she had to choose a husband for her daughter, and the young man in front of her was doing pretty well.Decisive and scheming, since he can be dedicated to Anne, no matter how reluctant he is, he will not let his daughter lose her happiness.

Tuscany is a beautiful place, it was even the birthplace of the Renaissance.Catherine and her party live in the most exclusive hotel, Ferdinand is the Grand Duke of Tuscany, he has absolute power here.Catherine did not stop her career. She built a restaurant here. People here admire talented people. Of course, Catherine is one of them. She is currently recognized as one of the most outstanding writers. The fairy tales she wrote The story was liked by all.On the day the restaurant opened, Catherine even announced the recipe of a favorite food without any care, and promised to announce the recipe of a delicious dish to the public every month, trying to let the people of the whole Tuscany taste it Delicious food, whether you are poor or rich, you can know this method.

At the same time, Anne and Georgiana built an orphanage with the help of Ferdinand. Georgiana was a kind child, and the orphanage was the place where she could best express her kindness. However, under the guidance of Catherine, both children Understand that you can't just give them food and a place to live and leave them alone, you must teach them the skills of life.For this reason, Georgiana begged Catherine to build a children's theater here again, and the actors in it could hire these orphans and pay them for their study expenses.

Ferdinand has been with Annie for a long time, and he also understands that she is not as kind as he thought, but every time he sees her without a trace of disgust, he sings with those dirty children and tells them stories, After teaching them how to read and not getting bored all day long, I found myself loving her even more.

The transfer of power in Tuscany was not easy. Many people did not see him as the newly appointed Grand Duke, but because of the actions of Catherine and others among the people, and because of his own support, he unexpectedly had A very good reputation, although the nobles still don't like him very much, but the people seem to love him very much.

"My mother said that there is a wise saying in the far east. Water can carry a boat and overturn it. The people are the foundation of a country. Only a monarch who is deeply loved by the people can be truly fearless. Although any nobles Very important, very important, but the most common people in the world, they don't care who is the monarch, they care more about who can make them live a better life." After a puppet show, Anne asked Fei Di Nan personally came to the stage to send flowers to those outstanding actors, but after seeing everyone's gratitude, Anne smiled and said to Ferdinand that she knew he was very busy recently, but he still took time to accompany her, she was very happy Happy.
