Versailles is worse than being queen

◎A boy with evil eyes◎

Life in Versailles is actually very regular.

Antanya can even recite the unchanging schedule, after all, this is one of her pre-marriage lessons, and she had to follow this process for several years in her previous life.

When she wakes up between 09:30 and [-]:[-], the daily costumer will hand her a book with pictures of all the clothes available for her to choose, and she will choose the one she wants to wear that day.The lingerie maid came with a basket of clothes, but only the most senior, the Countess Noailles, could dress her in linen corsets and undergarments.

After getting dressed, morning prayers are held, followed by breakfast.

In her previous life, she usually only drank a cup of coffee or hot chocolate, but now she seriously suspects that her frequent stomach pains were related to not having a good breakfast, so now she is going to add a croissant.

"Ke Song?" The food manager was stunned when he heard Wang Hao's request.

Antanya saw the bewildered caterer, and then she remembered that there was no croissant in France at this time.

This fluffy croissant originated in Turkey, became popular in Austria, and it was she herself who brought it to France.

As an Austrian princess, Antalia certainly didn't know what the croissant recipe was like, so she had to wait for several months in her previous life until the French court pastry chef learned the Austrian croissant recipe before finally making it again. Eat the taste of home.

But Antania is different now—fortunately, the open Versailles Museum has its own cafe. During the long and boring centuries, she suddenly became very interested in baking, and put almost I have read all the recipes of bread and desserts.

"Wait, please! I have the recipe."

When the pastry chef in the bakery made the croissant for the first time according to the recipe given by the princess, even the chefs in the imperial dining room and wine room came to watch.

Adding butter to the dough and kneading it into a dough that stretches into a translucent film is routine.It’s just that the butter will be added again next time, and it will be folded, flattened, folded, and flattened...

Finally, many isosceles triangles are cut out along the elongated flat bread, and then the slender isosceles triangles are rolled up to form strangely shaped croissant-shaped breads. After fermentation, they are sent to the oven.

The moment the baking is completed and the baking tray is taken out, a strange milky aroma permeates the bakery, sweet and attractive.

"Ah, this is the 'croissant' that the princess loves——"

Many people sniffed intoxicatedly, and then looked at the pastry chef who got the complete recipe: "Mr. Mokos, can the croissant recipe..."

"Do well in the bakery, don't think about these messy ideas all day long." The pastry chef "hummed" and hurriedly sent out the freshly baked bread with his fat belly.

As for the recipe - it's a rare resource.If you want to ask for something without giving him some benefits, is there such a good thing in the world?

Well, after breakfast at [-]:[-], I'm going to visit Louis' three aunts, the three daughters the king can't marry—if Queen Theresia is here, she will definitely frown again.

It is unreasonable for a king of a country to have a wallet to support his mistresses, but no money to prepare dowry for the princesses!

At eleven o'clock exactly, Antanya will go back to her room again and start formal dressing.First up is the hair—this one tends to take two hours or more.

Antanya now sincerely feels that she spent too much time on her hair in her previous life.

Seriously, it's unbearable to think back on when I gleefully placed giant flowers, jewels and even model warships atop a towering chignon piled high on top of each other.Fortunately, no one knows about her dark history—well, except for a certain guy who doesn't know how he is doing at the Paris Academy of Sciences now.

Speaking of which, she hadn't seen Nicholas for several years.

However, after talking with the little prince about life for a long time on her wedding night, no, the bright prospect of steam engine development, she very understandingly proposed a new reward from the Royal Academy of Sciences to the king, and the theme was to improve the steam engine.

After hearing that this was an area of ​​great interest to the young princess, His Majesty readily agreed and approved a bonus of 20 livres.

According to the usual practice, the Academy of Sciences will hold a salon for this purpose.Usually this salon may be held in the Louvre in Paris, but this time His Majesty the King generously lent the Mars Hall in the Palace of Versailles to hold this salon ball, and also expanded the scope to the entire French Academy, And not just the Academy of Sciences.

That was more than ten days later.

Before that, she needs to meet her new personal maid.

"Your Highness." Henriette Dusty smiled, and his brown eyes became crooked.

She saluted Antanya.

This young girl was selected by the princess as her personal maid, both apprehensive and looking forward to it.

The first time the concubine saw her was in her private living room in the small living room, and she also dismissed all the other maids, which made her feel that she was especially valued, so she was very excited.

"Lily!" To her surprise, the princess, who had been acting steady and elegant outside, rushed forward and hugged her.

"Oh, Your Highness!" She was flattered and patted the little princess who was half a head shorter than herself, and all the anxious thoughts she had had evaporated in an instant.

This is the noble princess, but she is also a lively and lovely girl like her!

Antanya hugged her former good friend very sincerely, even though the good friend didn't know her at the moment.

Henriette was her lady-in-waiting and her boudoir friend for many years.

According to the etiquette of Versailles, the personal maid has the right to keep the old clothes discarded by the princess or queen as her own, and she can also use the candles in the bedroom and the chess and card room alone.Most of the other maids can't wait to sell her clothes at a high price, can't wait to take away all the white candles in the bedroom in one visit, and often use their close contact to do some small things-such as turning some strange Strange people led her to her, and apparently received some "little gifts" from them.

Antania is usually more tolerant of these small gestures, after all, the maids of Versailles are generally like this.

But Henriette is a pure and lovely girl.She would only take the white candle Antania gave her, and never take advantage of the privileges of her position, and every time she got old clothes, she would seriously confirm with her again: "Are you really don't want it? Your Highness?"

After Henriette became her maid for many years, she only found out when chatting with her that Henriette was actually one of the news correspondents of the "Rheinische Zeitung" before the age of 17-in fact, he was collecting some interesting information in the palace, Provided to the newspaper, she is full of enthusiasm for this matter.

It's a pity that the newspaper closed down later, and she was urged by her parents to marry quickly, became Mrs. Compang, and gradually became the queen's first lady in charge. Since then, she has never had those "rebellious" thoughts.

Until the outbreak of the Great Revolution, Antania let Henriette leave the Palace of Versailles for the sake of her safety, and never saw her again until her death.

But in the Palace of Versailles since then, among the many books and studies commemorating Queen Mary, there is one by Henriette-the book is called "Memoirs of Madame Compon".

After her death, Henriette never forgave herself for the rest of her life.

In this life, I will try my best to protect myself.Antanya thought.

However, until then...

"Lily, is the job of a news correspondent interesting?" Antanya asked with a smile.

Henriette's originally happy smile froze on his face for an instant, and quickly turned into panic: "Your Highness, that, I can explain..."

It's over, it's over, it's over!Her little career was discovered by the princess!

God, she originally thought that the newspaper was on the verge of bankruptcy a few years ago, which was already the biggest crisis.

"Oh, dear," Antanya could hardly restrain the corners of her mouth, "what can I do with you like this?"

Henriette was at a loss for what to do in a panic, "Your Highness, if you want to fire me, can you not tell my parents about it..."

"No." Antanya shook her head pretending to be regretful, and seeing Henriette's weeping expression, she laughed again: "Because I won't fire you."

"Huh?" Henriette was stunned.

"Let's re-introduce." Antania smiled and pulled her to sit next to her, pointing to herself, "I, Marie Antoinette, the real boss of the Rheinische Zeitung."

In the girl's hellish expression, Antania held out her hand solemnly: "Congratulations, you have been promoted—I officially appoint you as the liaison officer of the Rheinische Zeitung in the Palace of Versailles."

……

It has not been a full month since Antania came to the Palace of Versailles, and the novelty of people towards her has not dissipated, and countless pairs of eyes are staring at her.

Therefore, although she knew that there were countless secret passages to sneak out of the palace, she resisted and did not move, but let Henriette deliver the news for her when she entered Versailles and Paris.

Soon, the staff of the "Rheinische Zeitung" newspaper knew the news-the big boss who bought the newspaper four years ago and saved them from unemployment came to Paris!

And the big boss also brought a very novel task - an incomplete novel draft was sent to the editorial department of the newspaper. According to the message conveyed by the correspondent, this novel will be published together with the newspaper every three days. Occupy a page, publish a chapter.

"I didn't mean to inquire," the editor-in-chief Fan Pei glanced at the complacent Henriette after flipping through the manuscript, feeling a little annoyed in his heart, "Is this written by the boss? The boss...is broken in love. ?"

Reading novels is a one-stop process, so what's the point of mixing it up with newspapers?

Therefore, he can only understand that this is the boss's personal masterpiece-combined with the content of this novel, for the boss who has nowhere to spend money and is even willing to buy the bankrupt Rheinische Zeitung, it is probably the only thing that can arouse If he is so impulsive, he must be broken in love, right?

"Don't talk nonsense!" Henriette replied angrily.

"The boss said that we should just print it first. Anyway, we have been losing money in the past few years, and it is all supported by the royal family."

This sentence made Fan Pei very angry.

All right.Just print it, and do whatever the boss says.

Therefore, before the planned Academy of Sciences Salon, Antalia finally got the "Rheinische Zeitung" that Henriette took back and forth several times before finally satisfying her, June 1770, 6 Version.

"Honey, you're wonderful." She smiled at Henriette.

Henriette brought her the list of tonight's salon and the explanation from the court director, eager to try: "Your Highness, do you want to take out this newspaper at tonight's salon? What can I do?"

"Your task is very important." Antanya smiled mysteriously.

She took the list and flipped through it quickly, but frowned when she saw a joint letter attached to the supervisor's instructions.

"Joint impeachment? What's going on?"

This joint letter was signed by more than a dozen people, impeaching the youngest academician in the French Academy, Nikola Tesla, a foreign academician affiliated to the Academy of Sciences.

"Oh, I know!" Henriette, who has always been familiar with all kinds of gossip inside and outside Versailles, answered immediately, "It is said that this young man has an evil eye in his right eye, and anyone who looks at him will be punished by him." Curse!——so for the orthodoxy and safety of the society, the academicians jointly impeached him to the king!"

It seems...some guy's life at the Academy of Sciences is quite lively.

Antanya thought silently.

The author says:

Antania: Firm ideals and beliefs, stay away from feudal superstition.
