Vienna, Schönbrunn Palace.

Today, a duke of no name came here. He was about to become an observer sent by the Austrian Army to Brazil. One of the purposes of his trip was to bid farewell to the current patriarch of the Habsburg family.

His name is Carl Ambrosius, but as a country nobleman, poverty still limits his imagination.

Ever since, he was the first to enter the palace and lost his way.

But as a member of the Habsburg family, he also has his own pride and must never bow his head to others.

And looking around, he quickly attracted the pointers of the ladies and maids.

"Yeah, who is this guy?"

"You can tell he's a country bumpkin at a glance."

"Although he is a countryman, he is quite handsome. Who will leave him behind and let him see the world."

Then a group of women laughed together, but a sharp-eyed maid saw something and reminded.

"Look, that's the royal coat of arms."

Immediately, the women who were still teasing just now quieted down, and then dispersed.

Some people have given up, but some people are more excited.

What they didn't know was that Carl Ambrosius' family, with only a hundred and fifty acres of land, didn't even have a carriage, and couldn't provide the kind of life they wanted.

Archduke Karl, the largest land nobleman in the Austrian Empire, owns three million acres of land, and the gap between the two is 20,000 times.

At last Ambrosius found someone to ask for directions, a young woman approaching with a child under her arm.

The ones who can do this in this palace must also be members of the royal family, Ambrosius thought so.

"Talia, don't you know how to ride a horse? It's so uncomfortable to hold me like this." Franz complained.

"My little prince, I'm just an unlucky tutor and nanny. If I ride a horse in the palace today, you can collect my body tomorrow. If you win my money, you won't receive it." Thalia was captured Franz was so annoyed that his chest heaved.

Yesterday, Thalia was informed that His Majesty the Emperor will meet with Archduke Franz today.

Talia came to Franz's room very early today, and the latter said that he would go back to sleep.

Thalia readily agreed to see the time, and then she fell asleep in Franz's room.

When Thalia woke up, she found that the scheduled time had passed.

So, they had to march quickly with Franz in their arms.

Talia was hurrying on the road, when suddenly a person appeared around the corner, knelt on one knee and stretched out his hand to hold Talia's other hand, saying.

"Hello, beautiful lady, I would like to..."

Before the man could finish speaking, Thalia kicked him in the face.

"I don't want to! Goodbye."

"Talia, someone actually strikes up a conversation with you." Franz teased.

"You little brat." Talia choked Franz.

.....

"...I just want to ask the way, is it so difficult? The way of greeting my father taught me doesn't work." Ambrosius sighed.

Finally, the passing guards told Ambrosius that the Hall of Mirrors was not in the Schönbrunn Palace.

So Ambrosius hurried to the Hall of Mirrors.

Inside the hall of mirrors, on the throne, sat an old man and a young man. The old man was Emperor Franz II, and the young man was the child he had just met.

Franz also waved to the unlucky guy in front of him.

Ambrosius was very excited to see the emperor and narrated his excitement.

However, Franz II had no interest in listening at all.

He was a little surprised when he accepted the resume handed over by the head of the royal family.

This slovenly looking (face is a bit dirty, because he was kicked by Thalia), a country bumpkin who has never seen anything in the world, is so highly rated in the military academy.

What is even more unbelievable is that the one who made the evaluation was none other than the legendary figure in the Austrian military circle, Archduke Karl, his younger brother, and one of the most disgusting people in the world.

Although Franz II and his brother, Grand Duke Karl, were at odds, he knew very well that his brother had a higher eye and would never praise anyone easily.

To be praised by Grand Duke Karl is enough to prove that the young man in front of him has extremely excellent abilities.

Franz also saw the evaluation of Archduke Karl, and Franz still remembers the evaluation of Archduke Karl to his eldest son Albrecht, "Give him two armies, that is murder."

The implication is that Albrecht can only command one army at most.

In history, Albrecht was a victorious general. In the Battle of Custozza, he led 80,000 Austrian troops to defeat the 120,000 Italian troops commanded by King Victor Emmanuel II himself. military.

To be a military observer seems to have wronged him.

Austrian military observers usually mean travel at public expense.

After some thought, Franz II decided to follow the cabinet's advice.

Awarded the rank of Major General and dispatched as an Army observer.

When Grand Duke Ambrosius heard the result, he couldn't help feeling sad.

But it would be very good for him, if there is no such a thin blood relationship.

I am afraid that the rank of general without real power is beyond his reach.

Most of the graduates of the military academy start as captains, and he no longer knows how far ahead of others.

Ambrosius has another purpose for this trip, which is to help him make a match.

His family was very poor, it was impossible for him to marry a genuine princess, and his blood was impure, if he married another commoner, his descendants might not even have the status of nobles.

Even though his family has fallen, he and his father still attach great importance to their own blood, and cannot accept the result that their descendants are no longer noble.

Of course, Ambrosius also has confidence. His grades in the military academy are very good. Archduke Karl also said that he will become a pillar of the Austrian Empire in the future.

Ambrosius felt that he was a promising general. Although he had no money now, he had a very good future. In addition, he was a disciple of Grand Duke Karl.

It's just that Ambrosius also knew that His Majesty the Emperor and Grand Duke Karl were at odds, so he didn't dare to bring up this relationship, but asked the patriarch for help as a junior in the family.

But Franz II's matter of Ambrosius, UU reading www. uukanshu.com doesn't care.

He waved his hand, indicating that he could leave to take up his post.

But before taking two steps, Ambrosius stopped and said back.

"For Queen Teresa's sake, for God's sake, please Your Majesty, even a princess with a disability or disease is fine."

Ambrosius's ancestors were the heirs of Queen Teresa, so he has the status of a member of the royal family.

As for the countries, there are indeed some disabled or sick princesses, but even so, their families will ask for a generous gift money.

And Franz II happened to be a very stingy emperor (probably because he paid too much war reparations.)

Ambrosius' actions surprised Franz. He couldn't understand how a good-looking person suddenly became like this.

In fact, Franz underestimated people's obsession with status at that time.

Franz looked at Francis II suspiciously, thinking, "Does Austria have a system of granting marriages in addition to the system of granting officials?"

Franz II has seen this kind of thing a lot, and he has long been familiar with it.

Said slowly.

"You are still young, and the current financial situation of the Austrian Empire is not good. Now young people have real talents, and many big families are willing to provide their daughters with a generous dowry. You still need to work hard..."

In short, just ignore it and find someone who can give you money.

Amphrosius' disappointment was beyond words, he didn't choose to continue entanglement, he chose to leave.

Looking at the back of Ambrosius, Franz decided to help him.

Perhaps it's time to play the traditional arts of the Habsburg family, and a new colonial plan emerged in Franz's mind.
