Solovyov in Tsarist Russia 1796

Chapter 451 028 Princess Charlotte and the Queen's Troubles

When Clausewitz heard this, he was actually very disappointed with His Majesty the King.

But as a Prussian soldier, loyalty is still very important. He escaped from being a prisoner of war and went through hardships all the way to Memel. He was indeed very courageous, so the King of Prussia also planned to give him some position, such as aide-de-camp.

But such a more feasible strategy, for the last city still in the hands of the Prussians, would limit the army's mobility to a small area, which is indeed not wise.

"After all, I have sworn allegiance. Thank you for your invitation."

"Ah, I knew it would be like this, but it doesn't matter. You know, there are often foreigners in the Russian army, and even our countrymen have many Germans. If you want to come, I welcome you at any time. And I don't want to be the chief of staff or the director of munitions in the future. I came out with troops."

Clausewitz didn't mind being a staff officer. After all, this has always been his job, and it has formed path dependence.

As for foreigners in the Russian army, it is not uncommon, and they may even be promoted faster than their own people.

"Do you still want to lead an army independently in the future, or even become the commander-in-chief?"

"That's right. In Russia, being an adjutant is a dead end. More than one famous veteran has said so."

"That's no wonder. You once studied with Marshal Suvorov. Russia's traditional staff system is not very perfect."

"If you come to Russia, you will experience this strange phenomenon even more. In addition, we really lack professional staff here."

"You are so skilled in business, but you are unwilling to take this position. I can understand."

"If you get military honors, you will be more prominent as the chief officer."

This time in Poland, except for the battle in Eylau, he was unwilling to leave, and he has always been following his strategic plan.

If he were the commander-in-chief, he might have suppressed the matter. After all, Langgeron was a Frenchman. Sometimes he could make up his mind, but he also had to take into account the factions of the German and local officers and could not lean towards one faction.

"Yes. You still have to go back to Jelgava. I think we can meet again if there is a chance."

"Indeed, I still suggest that you come here. You should know that in Russia, officers of the same level have higher salaries, and if you decide to settle here and bring your fiancée to get married, our emperor will provide you with housing."

Soloviev was talking about housing. In fact, even the manor could be used. The Tsar of the old Luo family was willing to spend money when he was throwing money.

When he returned to Jelgava, the trouble he faced was probably that Maria always came to seek medical treatment with her son.

If you bring your child here, you will not be considered to have an ambiguous relationship.

Soloviev is not an all-rounder. His medical insights are just that. He has mastered the use of several traditional medicinal materials.

It just so happens that these methods are more useful in pediatrics and gynecology, which confirms that he is a friend of women.

It's just that Maria is so close to him, it's not good if someone sees him.

He doesn't want to face this kind of trouble when he is about to get married, especially when he is close to her. Although Maria is not fat, and can't even be said to be very plump, but when she is so close to him, her body that is suitable for childbirth is really irresistible.

"Malushenka, this... is not appropriate."

"After all, we are good friends, and I brought the child to you to see, and I also trust you to help him take care of his body."

"But Paul is still so young. Although I am good at coaxing children, your baby is too young."

"When you were on duty in the palace, you coaxed a girl of this age a lot."

Maria is indeed straightforward enough, and she is the biggest nemesis.

"Well, girls always like it if there are male servants to take care of them."

"You have some truth in saying that. We sisters all like to have handsome servants around us."

However, only Ekaterina is openly flirting with someone. Maria's two sisters live happily and harmoniously.

But this girl, it's hard to say.

It's obvious that for her, if the child is sick, it will be more painful than the sky falling. If the child has any accident, it will be a big blow to the young mother.

However, the child is in good health recently, and there is no need to worry too much. It's just that he is weaker than an average healthy child, so he needs to be more careful.

"That makes sense, but it seems that letting the maids hold the baby is also a bit too much."

"What about you?"

"Ah, if I hadn't come here from Weimar, Karl wouldn't let me take care of the child too much."

"Children are naturally connected to their mothers. Do you remember when you were in the Winter Palace? Wait, it seems that there are people outside."

There was indeed some movement. Solovyov told Maria about his parenting experience. He had been a clumsy and stupid father, and he had more opportunities to take care of his younger brothers and sisters at home than to take care of his own daughter.

It should be taken into account that the children born to Sylvia and Polina are in France, and Alexander recognized the two children born to Louisa after all.

As for when he continued to talk, it also involved some practical problems, but he used this doll to demonstrate.

"If the child. Your Highness, pinching the child's feet like this is good for the body's circulation."

"I don't understand medical skills and health care methods. You tell me this."

"Well, it's good for the heart, lungs and liver. What it represents here is the kidneys."

When talking about kidneys, the door opened and it was Queen Louise's daughter, the lovely Princess Charlotte.

She is much prettier than the little princess who "breaks in" in Velázquez's paintings, and she is also very good at dressing herself up with light makeup.

"Your Highness, come here."

"Monsieur Baron, what are you doing with 'sister' Maria?"

"I'm just teaching Your Highness how to take care of the baby's body. I can't do it directly because the baby is sleeping, so I'll use a doll to demonstrate."

"So, can my doll be okay too?"

"Of course, but Her Highness is a Prussian princess and will definitely get married in the future."

"Then she will definitely have a baby like Sister Maria."

There are precocious children in every era, and Charlotte is the eldest daughter in the family. Did the above two brothers receive the education? She obviously also knows how to take responsibility, and such children are indeed more lovable.

"But that was still a long time ago. Your Highness, you still have to grow up healthy and safe. Only then will you be able to have a satisfactory groom, who may be our Russian Prince Charming."

Maria was surprised when she heard Solovyov speak like this.

Charlotte's age is just right for Nikolai and Mikhail, but the two brothers and this girl are still too young to talk about marriage.

This guy actually said it so bluntly, and he was really not afraid of causing trouble.

Of course, neither of them noticed that Charlotte came with her sister Alexandrina. The child had just celebrated her fourth birthday and was not very tall, so she was completely blocked behind the crib.

She was also holding a doll and was still talking about "Prince Charming".

In this situation, fortunately, the two children and the maid who accompanied Charlotte looked like a master at pretending to be confused, so nothing would happen.

Solovyov found Charlotte pleasing to his eye, probably because she was somewhat precocious in this exile life, and understood the truth of the world earlier than the stupid son of a landlord in Petersburg, and his students, especially now. So hard.

Even as a member of the royal family, they still have to live a wandering life, and they can only settle down when they go abroad.

"For example"

Solovyov actually had a pocket watch in his arms, and the small portrait inside belonged to Nikolai.

It seems that I brought it correctly today, and I couldn’t bring it with the portrait of Louisa around Maria, so I brought it over to show Charlotte the heroic appearance of the Russian Grand Duke.

"This is His Highness Nikolai Pavlovich, the Emperor's younger brother. When I was in the palace, I was tutoring His Highness, so I got this pocket watch."

Charlotte saw it and blushed too.

Well, Nikolai was very handsome when he was a child, not the image of the bald man in the history books. Moreover, he went bald later than his three brothers. His hair remained thick during childhood and adolescence and into middle age.

Even the facial features look very soft, more like a girl than when his eldest brother Alexander was a child. In the portrait, if the artist's skills are excellent, it will look softer.

As for the princess's direct reaction, Solovyov probably also knew that little girls also like beautiful boys of similar age.

In addition, starting from Nicholas, the Russian Tsar began a cycle of baldness and non-baldness. When it came to the mentor and Uncle Steel, this cycle probably did not break.

"Mishka, if you show this to your child, it's a little bit better."

Maria didn't realize that Charlotte would be her sister-in-law in the future, but Solovyov helped his brother find a wife. Although it sounded ridiculous, as the prince's master, he could indeed help. Looking for foreign princesses.

She kept her mouth shut, but she always paid attention to Solovyov's attitude in front of outsiders.

Moreover, although Charlotte is not very smart and is sometimes clumsy, she has a very good memory.

In addition to her own "life-long events", she is more worried about her mother's health.

Indeed, Queen Louise's physical condition has not been very good recently, especially after leaving Berlin.

"What's wrong, Charlotte, what are you worried about?"

Maria could still see the worry on the child's face, so she asked here too.

"nothing."

"If you have something on your mind, you can talk to your sister, Charlotte."

"My mother has been feeling uncomfortable recently. She always holds her chest with both hands, like this."

Charlotte also made a gesture of holding her heart with both hands. If she called the silly boy Nicholas, even if she didn't tell him about his wife, she would probably feel attracted to him.

After all, this boy already knows very well. He knows that the master has no wife, but he always goes to French women's salons outside.

"Her Royal Highness the Queen feels uncomfortable in her chest. It's probably a heart and lung problem."

"Yes, the queen always feels uncomfortable and has been resting in her room recently."

Speaking of which, Queen Louise's physical condition is indeed not very good.

Solovyov still wanted to tell Charlotte what to do.

But Maria said this at this time: "Since the health of Her Royal Highness the Queen is concerned, I think there is a 'doctor' here. This baron still knows how to take care of the body. Why not let him go with you, Charlotte?" How about it?"

Facts have proved that there is always someone who likes to sell out his teammates.

However, to see Queen Louise, he still had to go to her suite. Soloviev's first reaction was not to go.

But Maria had already pushed him out, so he had to bite the bullet and go.

Charlotte was very happy, after all, sister Maria was willing to find someone to help.

(That's right, after all, they will be a family in the future.)

The queen was indeed very uncomfortable, and her face was not good, but the color of her lips was normal.

However, when taking her pulse, it can be felt that she was still relatively weak.

"Your Highness, you should not worry about the current situation. Sometimes, you have to believe in God's arrangements."

"Baron, you are a very talented young general. If you were in the era of King Frederick the Great, you would probably become his pen pal. You are now in frequent correspondence with Archduke Karl. This is the case. I believe you are a rational person, not the kind of religious person who is willing to be a humble servant of God."

At this point, Queen Louise began to cough again.

"It's just your problem. Although it's here, the cause of the disease lies in the current situation."

"Yes, I know from the court attendant that you have advised my husband. I love him deeply, but at this time, his behavior"

"But you should also be at ease and have a good rest. If possible, you can try to use salvia miltiorrhiza and some of the following herbs to recuperate. However, this cannot be called treatment, after all, I am not a professional doctor. And there is donkey-hide gelatin"

Soloviev was still quite careful when writing down the prescription.

As for the queen's physical condition, massage is also needed.

Just touch the queen's feet

There is a little bit of "disrespect" in it, but it still needs to be said.

"Your Majesty, I think there is another point, that is, you need to massage your feet."

"It doesn't matter, you are also kind enough to treat me. Although you can't cure my husband's problem, I am still willing to listen to you as a "doctor."

Speaking of which, if she were the monarch of Prussia, it might be more reliable.

She was even very sensible. She let the servants take off her shoes and socks and lay down on the bed.

"Your Highness, that's probably it. Massaging in these places is good for the heart."
